After decades of molecular phylogenetic studies, the deep phylogeny gymnosperms has not been resolved, and placement Gnetales remains one most controversial issues in seed plant evolution. To resolve plants to address sources conflict, we conducted a phylotranscriptomic study with sampling all 13 families main lineages angiosperms. Multiple datasets containing up 1 296 042 sites across 1308 loci were analysed, using concatenation coalescence approaches. Our generated consistent well-resolved...
Significance Understanding what determines the distribution of biodiversity remains one great challenges in evolutionary biology and ecology. The Northern Hemisphere conifers do not follow a latitudinal diversity gradient show unique pattern, that is most species are distributed at middle latitudes. To reveal mechanisms underlying this we investigate spatiotemporal evolution largest conifer genus Pinus . We find midlatitude region has been an museum for , particularly, topography played...
Cycads represent one of the most ancient lineages living seed plants. Identifying genomic features uniquely shared by cycads and other extant plants, but not non-seed-producing may shed light on origin key innovations, as well early diversification Here, we report 10.5-Gb reference genome Cycas panzhihuaensis, complemented transcriptomes 339 cycad species. Nuclear plastid phylogenomic analyses strongly suggest that Ginkgo form a clade sister to all gymnosperms, in contrast mitochondrial...
In Pinaceae, the chloroplast, mitochondrial, and nuclear genomes are paternally, maternally, biparentally inherited, respectively. Examining congruence incongruence of gene phylogenies among three should provide insights into phylogenetic relationships within family. Here we studied intergeneric Pinaceae using sequences chloroplast matK gene, mitochondrial nad5 low-copy 4CL. The 4CL may exist as a single copy in some species but it constitutes small family with two or members others....
Current biofuel production relies on limited arable lands the earth, and is impossible to meet demands. Oil producing algae are alternative feedstock with potential world's ambitious goal replace fossil fuels. This review provides an overview of biological engineering aspects in processing technologies recent advances research development fuels approach. The article covers biology, selection genetic modification species strains, systems design, culture media light management, harvest...
The literature on biomass pyrolysis regarding kinetics, models (single particle and reactor), experimental results is reviewed from an engineering point of view. Predictions existing single derived a detailed description the transport phenomena data measured intrinsic chemical kinetics are presented. main conclusions modeling studies can be summarized as follows: (1) available knowledge has not been integrated properly for reactor design, (2) complex two-dimensional do provide more accurate,...
Various types of cylindrical biomass particles (pine, beech, bamboo, demolition wood) have been pyrolyzed in a batch-wise operated fluid bed laboratory setup. Conversion times, product yields, and compositions were measured as function the particle size (0.7−17 mm), vapor's residence time (0.25−6 s), position (dense or splash zone), temperature (250−800 °C). For pyrolysis temperatures between 450 550 °C, bio-oil yield appeared to be maximal (in this work: about 65 wt %), while water content...
The connotation, design optimization and implementation of the Volume Fracturing technique are discussed. connotation includes five aspects as follows: (1) break up reservoirs to form complex fracture network, "artificial" permeability; (2) initiation involving not only single open-fracture but shear failure slip; (3) "breakthrough" traditional fracturing seepage theory model, greatly shorten effective fluid distance; (4) more suitable for highly brittle formations; (5) multi-stage...
The Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) is thought to be more strongly affected by the Quaternary glaciations than most other regions of same latitude. It would great interest investigate population genetic structure organisms distributed on platform and its correlation with climatic oscillations. Here we used chloroplast (cp)DNA trnT-trnF sequence study variation phylogeography Pedicularis longiflora, an alpine herb extensive distribution QTP. Based a range-wide sampling comprising 41 populations...
Phylogenetic reconstruction is fundamental to study evolutionary biology and historical biogeography. However, there was not a molecular phylogeny of gymnosperms represented by extensive sampling at the genus level, most published phylogenies this group were constructed based on cytoplasmic DNA markers and/or multi-copy nuclear ribosomal DNA. In study, we use LFY NLY, two single-copy genes that originated from an ancient gene duplication in ancestor seed plants, reconstruct estimate...
There has been multiple evidence that domestic poultry may act as a vessel for the generation of novel influenza A viruses. In this study, we have analyzed evolution and pathogenicity 4 H5N2 avian viruses isolated from apparently healthy H5N1 virus endemic areas in China. Phylogenetic analysis revealed two these viruses, A/duck/Eastern China/1111/2011 (DK/EC/1111/11) A/goose/Eastern China/1112/2011 (GS/EC/1112/11) were derived reassortment events which clade 2.3.4 highly pathogenic (HPAI)...
Abstract We reconstructed a phylogenetic tree of Chinese vascular plants (Tracheophyta) using sequences the chloroplast genes atpB , matK ndhF and rbcL mitochondrial matR . produced matrix comprising 6098 species including 13 695 DNA sequences, which 1803 were newly generated. Our taxonomic sampling spanned 3114 genera representing 323 families plants, covering more than 93% all known from China. The comprehensive large phylogeny supports most relationships among within recognized by recent...
Summary Angiosperms and gymnosperms are two major groups of extant seed plants. It has been suggested that lack FLOWERING LOCUS T ( FT ), a key integrator at the core flowering pathways in angiosperms. Taking advantage newly released gymnosperm genomes, we revisited evolutionary history plant phosphatidylethanolamine‐binding protein PEBP ) gene family through phylogenetic reconstruction. Expression patterns three taxa heterologous expression Arabidopsis were studied to investigate functions...
Abstract Evolutionary radiation is a widely recognized mode of species diversification, but its underlying mechanisms have not been unambiguously resolved for species-rich cosmopolitan plant genera. In particular, it remains largely unknown how biological and environmental factors jointly driven occurrence in specific regions. Here, we use Rhododendron, the largest genus woody plants Northern Hemisphere, to investigate geographic climatic factors, as well functional traits, worked together...
Abstract The gymnosperm Welwitschia mirabilis belongs to the ancient, enigmatic gnetophyte lineage. It is a unique desert plant with extreme longevity and two ever-elongating leaves. We present chromosome-level assembly of its genome (6.8 Gb/1 C) together methylome transcriptome data explore astonishing biology. also refined, high-quality Gnetum montanum enhance our understanding evolution. has been shaped by lineage-specific whole duplication (~86 million years ago) more recently (1-2...
Lysosomes are acidic organelles that mediate the degradation and recycling of cellular waste materials. Damage to lysosomes can cause lysosomal membrane permeabilization (LMP) trigger different types cell death, including apoptosis. Newcastle disease virus (NDV) naturally infect most birds. Additionally, it serves as a promising oncolytic known for its effective infection tumor cells induction intensive apoptotic responses. However, involvement in NDV-induced apoptosis remains poorly...
