The sfr6-1 mutant of Arabidopsis thaliana was identified previously on the basis its failure to undergo acclimation freezing temperatures following exposure low positive temperatures. This is attributed a defect in pathway leading cold on-regulated (COR) gene expression via CBF (C-box binding factor) transcription factors. We region chromosome 4 containing SFR6 by positional mapping. Fine mapping mutation proved impossible as locus resides very close centromere. Therefore, we screened 380...
RNA editing, converting cytidines (C) to uridines (U) at specific sites in the transcripts of mitochondria and plastids, plays a critical role organelle gene expression land plants. Recently pentatricopeptide repeat (PPR) proteins were identified as site-specific recognition factors for editing. In this study, we characterized an empty pericarp7 mutant (emp7) Zea mays (maize), which confers embryo-lethal phenotype. emp7 mutants, mitochondrial functions are seriously perturbed, resulting...
Abstract The neuroendocrine-immune (NEI) regulatory network is a complex system, which plays an indispensable role in the immunity of host. In present study, bioinformatical analysis transcriptomic data from oyster Crassostrea gigas and further biological validation revealed that TNF (CgTNF-1 CGI_10018786) could activate transcription factors NF-κB HSF (heat shock factor) through MAPK signaling pathway, then regulate apoptosis, redox reaction, neuro-regulation protein folding haemocytes....
Summary Splicing of plant organellar group II introns is under accurate nuclear control that employs many nucleus‐encoded protein cofactors from various families. For mitochondrial introns, only a few splicing factors have been characterized because disruption their functions often causes embryo lethality. Here, we report the function Empty Pericarp8 ( Emp8 ) in three mitochondria, complex I biogenesis, and seed development maize . encodes P subfamily pentatricopeptide repeat localizes...
Neural-endocrine-immune (NEI) system is a major modulation network among the nervous, endocrine and immune weights greatly in maintaining homeostasis of organisms during stress infection. Some microRNAs are found interacting with NEI (designated NeurimmiRs), addressing swift modulations on system. The oyster Crassostrea gigas, as an intertidal bivalve, has evolved primary However, knowledge about NeurimmiRs oysters remains largely unknown. Six small RNA libraries from haemocytes stimulated...
Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play important regulatory roles in plant growth and development, as well cell differentiation stress responses. Respiratory burst oxidase homolog (RBOH) is the key enzyme ROS production. So far, Rboh family genes Pyropia yezoensis have not been comprehensively characterized, whether their function was involved formation of archeospores still unknown. In this study, a total 11 PyRboh were identified from P. genome by homology mining. Through phylogenetic...
ABSTRACT Yesso scallop-pathogenic Vibrio splendidus strain JZ6 was found to have the highest virulence at 10°C, while its pathogenicity significantly reduced with increased temperature and completely incapacitated 28°C. In present study, comparative transcriptome analyses of another nonpathogenic V. strain, TZ19, were conducted two crucial culture temperatures (10°C 28°C) in order determine possible mechanism regulation virulence. Comparisons among four libraries, constructed from TZ19...
The accurate extraction of cultivated land information is crucial for optimizing regional farmland layouts and enhancing food supply. To address the problem low accuracy in existing products poor applicability methods fragmented, small parcel agricultural landscapes complex terrain mapping, this study develops an advanced model western part Henan Province, China, utilizing Gaofen-2 (GF-2) imagery improved U-Net architecture to achieve a 1 m resolution mapping terrain. We obtained optimal...
Climate transition zones are ecologically sensitive regions that respond to changes in complex natural conditions. Analyzing the spatiotemporal evolution trends and impact factors of landscape ecological risk is crucial for maintaining regional ecosystem security. However, research predominantly focused on past analytical paradigm, which often needed more strategic predictions future scenarios tailored diverse developmental requirements. This study analyzed land use Huai River Basin during...
Bacterial disease has caused high mortality of breeding molluscs from 2009 to 2011 in the Changhai area (Dalian, China). Vibrio spp. and Pseudomonas have been detected as major pathogenic agents for aquatic animals this area. In present study, four virulence genes including vsm, toxR, aprX carA were targeted develop a real-time PCR assay quantitative detection splendidus, V. parahaemolyticus, fluorescens P. putida, respectively. The sensitivity specificity assays verified by experimental...
Micro ribonucleic acids (miRNAs) represent a class of small noncoding RNAs that play important roles in multiple biological processes by degrading targeted mRNAs or repressing mRNA translation. In the case algal lineages, especially dinoflagellates, knowledge regarding miRNA system is still limited and its regulatory role remains unclear. present study, computational approach was employed to screen miRNAs from expressed sequence tags (ESTs) Alexandrium tamarense. A total 18 potential were...
Abstract Animals living at high altitudes have evolved distinct phenotypic and genotypic adaptations against stressful environments. We studied the adaptive patterns of altitudinal stresses on transcriptome turnover in subterranean plateau zokors ( Myospalax baileyi ) high-altitude Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau. Transcriptomes from three populations with ecologies L ow: 2846 m, M iddle: 3282 H igh: 3,714 m) were sequenced compared. Phylogenetic principal component analyses classified them into...
The species-level taxonomy of the marine brown algal genus Sargassum is problematic. To resolve some these systematic issues in northern China seas, a molecular analysis species was carried out using ITS-2, cox3, and rbcL DNA sequences. Phylogenetic analyses confirmed eight species, including: S. confusum, fusiforme, hemiphyllum var. chinense, horneri, muticum, siliquastrum, thunbergii, vachellianum. previously described shandongense qingdaoense, endemic to Shandong Peninsula, are shown be...

Gene duplication has been proposed to serve as the engine of evolutionary innovation. It is well recognized that eukaryotic genomes contain a large number duplicated genes evolve new functions or expression patterns. However, in mollusks, mechanisms underlying divergence and functional maintenance duplicate remain little understood. In present study, we performed comprehensive analysis protein kinase superfamily using whole genome transcriptome data for Pacific oyster. A total 64 gene pairs...
