Abstract Aim This study aimed to clarify species boundaries as well phylogenetic relationships among of the Primulina eburnea complex, a rapidly diversifying group edaphic specialists confined karst habitat islands in southern China. We investigated patterns genetic isolation and diversification this complex. Location Limestone karsts Methods analysed data from three chloroplast DNA (cp ) regions eight nuclear microsatellite loci, representing five closely related P. complex sampled 62...
Lactic acid bacteria that exist in the urinogenital system play an important role maintaining health of host. Here, we report finished and annotated genome a Lactococcus strain was isolated from vaginas healthy women shows probiotic properties, including nisin A production adhesion to vaginal epithelial cells.
Abstract The genus Primulina is an emerging model system in studying the drivers and mechanisms of species diversification, for its high richness endemism, together with degree habitat specialization. In this study, we sequenced transcriptomes eleven across phylogeny using Illumina HiSeq 2000 platform. A total 336 million clean reads were processed into 355 573 unigenes a mean length 1336 bp N50 value 2191 after pooling reassembling twelve individual pre‐assembled unigene sets. Of these...
Conservation of endangered or economic fish and control invasive is a great challenge hydraulic engineering worldwide. Flow velocity has been recognized to affect the spawning fishes delivering drifting eggs in rivers. However, solid scientific supports associated mechanisms establish quantitative relations between flow reproduction, taking into account spawning, fertilizing, hatching, as well surviving, are lacking. In this paper, we quantified relationship reproduction Chinese carps...
Drought stress is one of the major abiotic factors limiting plant growth and causing ecological degradation. The regulation reactive oxygen species (ROS) generation ROS scavenging essential to under drought stress. To investigate role arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on ability in Bombax ceiba, content, expression levels respiratory burst oxidase homologue (Rbohs), antioxidant response were evaluated AMF NMF (non-inoculated AMF) plants 14 BcRboh genes identified B. ceiba genome divided...
The coordination geometry of zeolite-encapsulated copper(II)−histidine (CuHis) complexes, prepared by ion exchange the complexes from aqueous solutions into zeolite NaY, was determined a combination UV−vis−NIR diffuse reflectance spectroscopy (DRS), X-band EPR, electron-spin−echo envelope modulation (ESEEM), and high field (W-band) pulsed ENDOR techniques. EPR detected two distinct A B, which are different prevailing Cu(II) bis-His complex in solution (pH 7.3 with His:Cu(II) ratio 5:1)....
The order Acipenseriformes, which includes sturgeons and paddlefishes, represents "living fossils" with complex genomes that are good models for understanding whole-genome duplication (WGD) ploidy evolution in fishes. Here, we sequenced assembled the first high-quality chromosome-level genome octoploid Acipenser sinensis (Chinese sturgeon), a critically endangered species also poorly understood group Acipenseriformes. Our results show A. is autooctoploid containing four kinds of octovalents...
Amorphophallus coaetaneus S. Y. Liu & J. Wei 1986 is a perennial herb belonging to the Araceae family in southwestern China (Guangxi and Yunnan provinces). Although this species have not been list red of International Union for Conservation Nature (IUCN), populations are declining due human over exploitation. To help genetic diversity studies, we sequenced assembled complete chloroplast (cp) genome A. (GenBank accession number national center biotechnology information (NCBI): OQ404947). The...
Konjac glucomannan consists of D-mannose and D-glucose units is a hydrocolloid obtained from the corm Amorphophallus species. Due to its bioactive properties, biodegradability, hydrophilic ability, widely used in fields food, medicine, industry. species have been cultivated as cash crops many Asian countries. kachinensis Engler & Gehrmann 1911 naturally distributed southwestern China, Laos, northern Thailand. To help genetic assessment conservation this species, first chloroplast genome A....
The mountainous region of southern China has been characterized by its complicated environment and topography. Amorphophallus kiusianus Makino 1913 is a representative species extreme habitat preference that resides mainly in this region. To help study the genetic differentiation mechanisms A. populations, we sequenced first chloroplast genome using next-generation sequencing. was 166,269 bp length with an average GC content 36% (GenBank accession number: PP072243). lengths large single-copy...
The physiological activity facilitated by arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) contributes to plants' ability tolerate drought. Nevertheless, it is unclear if AMF colonization affects the expression of genes in host plant that encode antioxidant enzymes superoxide dismutase (SOD) family, which help alleviate drought stress plants. Here, we conducted a pot trial determine whether
Techniques were developed to determine which life stages of fish are vulnerable barotrauma from expansion internal gases during decompression. Eggs, larvae, and juvenile hatchery-reared white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus; up 91 days post hatch; d.p.h.) decompressed assess vulnerability identify initial swim bladder inflation. Barotrauma-related injury mortality first observed 9 d.p.h., on the same day as exogenous feeding. However, barotrauma-related did not occur again until inflation...
ABSTRACT Lantibiotics are ribosomally synthesized, posttranslationally modified antimicrobial peptides. Their biosynthesis genes usually organized in gene clusters, which mainly found Gram-positive bacteria, including pathogenic streptococci. Three highly virulent Streptococcus suis serotype 2 strains (98HAH33, 05ZYH33, and SC84) have been shown to contain an 89K pathogenicity island. Here, on these islands, we unveiled reannotated a putative lantibiotic locus designated sui contains...
The objective of this study is to provide information on metabolic changes occurring in Chinese sturgeon (an ecologically important endangered fish) subjected repeated cycles fatigue and recovery the effect swimming capability. Fatigue-recovery likely occur when fish are moving through fishways large dams results investigation for fishway design conservation wild populations. A series four stepped velocity tests were carried out successively a Steffensen-type respirometer effects...
Abstract The crystalline morphologies of isothermally and nonisothermally crystallized poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS) its blend with polyamide 66 (PA66) were investigated by polarized optical microscopy a hot stage. spherulite superstructure PPS was greatly affected crystallizable PA66; Maltese cross not clear, the impingement between spherulites disappeared. This could be ascribed to formation small crystals PA66, which filled in lamellae. nonisothermal crystallization behavior also measured...
Abstract The isothermal crystallization of poly(phenylene sulfide) (PPS) and its glass fiber (GF) reinforced composite has been investigated by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) polarized optical microscope (POM) equipped with a hot stage. During the process PPS Avrami exponent value decreases time, indicating change mechanism presence mixed growth (bidimensional three‐dimensional crystals). GF greatly accelerates bulk rate changes crystalline morphology from spherulites to...
Plants in the genus Amorphophallus, many of which possess high konjac glucomannan content, are considered important cash crops Asian countries. Wild relatives cultivated Amorphophallus species valuable resources for genetic improvement these crops. To aid future research wild germplasm a single individual krausei Engler, Pflanzenr 1911 was collected from southwestern China, and its chloroplast genome sequenced using next-generation sequencing technologies. The assembled 172,418 bp length...
