Polyploidization is hypothesized to improve the freezing resistance of plants in cold regions. However, adaptive strategies and key physiological mechanisms involved resistant ability polyploids remain unclear. In Actinidia chinensis (kiwifruits), tetraploids hexaploids occupy higher altitude habitats with colder climates than diploids, providing a study system investigate responsible for differentiation between cytotypes. We characterized environmental conditions their natural distribution...
Abstract Mating systems play a crucial role in plant speciation. In particular, hybrid seed inviability is prevalent among species with different mating due to parental conflict for resource allocation offspring. However, whether such postzygotic barrier can be rapidly established recently diverged remains poorly understood. this study, we integrate population genomic and ecological approaches address question using pairs Aquilegia kansuensis A. ecalcarata , which approximately 0.256 Ma,...
Abstract A potential mechanism to enhance utilization of sparingly soluble forms phosphorus (P) is the root secretion malate, which mainly mediated by ALMT gene family in plants. In this study, a total 34 GmALMT genes were identified soybean genome. Expression patterns diverged considerably among GmALMTs response phosphate (Pi) starvation leaves, roots and flowers, with expression altered P availability 26 . One root‐specific whose was significantly enhanced Pi‐starvation, GmALMT5 , studied...
Proton (H+) and aluminum (Al) rhizotoxicity are two major factors limiting crop production in acid soils. Orthologues of the zinc-finger transcription factor, SENSITIVE TO PROTON RHIZOTOXICITY1 (STOP1), have been found to play an essential role tolerance both stresses by regulating multiple H+ Al tolerant genes. In present study, three GmSTOP1 homologues were identified soybean genome. All exhibited similar properties as reflected harboring four potential zinc finger domains, localizing...
Cryptic diversity in evolutionary radiation offers an excellent system for investigating the intricacies of progress. Understanding evolution cryptic is imperative unraveling hidden complexities biodiversity. However, empirical evidence elucidating mechanisms behind remains limited, particularly plants. Here, we focus on a monophyletic group Aquilegia species mainly distributed mountains Southwest China, one world's biodiversity hotspots. Using whole-genome resequencing 158 individuals from...
Retrotransposons are the most abundant group of transposable elements (TEs) in plants, providing an extraordinarily versatile source genetic variation. Thlaspi arvense, a close relative model plant Arabidopsis thaliana with worldwide distribution, thrives from sea level to above 4,000 m elevation Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP), China. Its strong adaptability renders it ideal system for studying adaptation extreme environments. However, how retrotransposons affect T. arvense genome evolution and...
Abstract Techniques of reduced‐representation sequencing (RRS) have revolutionized ecological and evolutionary genomics studies. Precise establishment orthologs is a critical challenge for RRS, especially when reference genome absent. The proportion shared heterozygous sites across samples an alternative criterion filtering paralogs. In the prevailing pipeline variant calling RRS data – PYRAD/IPYRAD, maxSH often overlooked parameter with implications to detecting paralogs according...
Megacodon is an ideal genus to study speciation and ecological adaptation in the Sino-Himalayan region. The contains two species distributed at different elevations separate areas. However, studies of this have long been impeded by a lack fieldwork on one its species, venosus. In study, we collected specimens found extraordinary new Lushui county north-west Yunnan province, which since named lushuiensis. We propose based both morphological molecular evidence. finding emphasized importance...
Abstract Background How geographical isolation and ecological divergence act together to promote plant diversity in mountainous regions remains largely unknown. In this study, we chose two genera comprising a small number of species distributed the Sino-Himalayan region, Megacodon (Gentianaceae) Beesia (Ranunculaceae), which both exhibit fragmented distribution pattern are found across wide range elevations. By summarizing their common patterns speciation and/or processes, aim understand how...
Techniques of reduced-representation sequencing (RRS) have revolutionized ecological and evolutionary genomics studies. Precise establishment orthologs is a critical challenge for RRS, especially when reference genome absent. The proportion shared heterozygous sites across samples an alternative criterion filtering paralogs, as divergent lineages should be less likely to share heterozygosity. In the prevailing pipeline variant calling RRS data - PYRAD/IPYRAD, maxSharedH often overlooked...
Five new monoterpenoid iridolactones, cornosides A – E (1 5) have been isolated from Cornus controversa. The structures of 1 5 were elucidated on the basis extensive spectroscopic analysis. Cornoside (1) is first natural cis-fused tricyclic dilactone iridoid possessing a 4S-methyl-1H-2,6-dioxahexahydorcyclopent [c, d]indene-1,7 (2 H)-dione ring system. B (2) exhibited potent liver X receptor (LXR) agonistic activity.
Abstract Background: How geographical isolation and ecological divergence act together to promote plant diversity in mountainous regions remains largely unknown. In this study, we chose two small genera distributed the Sino-Himalayan region, Megacodon Beesia , which both exhibit a fragmented distribution pattern are found across wide range of altitudes. By summarizing their common patterns speciation and/or processes, aim understand how environmental changes accelerated lineage...
