BackgroundEuschistus heros and Piezodorus guildinii are major soybean pests across the Americas. Gut-associated bacteria influence insect nutrition, detoxification, and stress tolerance, potentially enhancing adaptation ...

Abstract Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of morphology-selected sperm pools provides an exploratory approach for investigating genomic features associated with variable sperm quality. In this study, pooled DNA from 1500 in...

Abstract Transcriptome sequencing data offer a valuable resource for inferring genetic variants, yet their application in forensic individual identification and kinship analysis remains insufficiently explored. This stud...

Abstract Polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) are important nutrients that play critical roles in sea urchin reproduction and early development. Strongylocentrotus intermedius, the only commercially cultured sea urchin sp...

Abstract In response to the emerging threat of insecticide resistance in malaria vectors, insecticides are being repurposed for vector control or developed de novo. The longevity of disease control programs will require ...

Background A new approach to estimating gene carrier rates was introduced in 2019, relying on the frequency of pathogenic/likely pathogenic (P/LP) variants from ClinVar in a large, population sequencing database (Genome ...

Abstract Among oilseeds crops, Brassica napus L., is of great importance globally. The economic yield and harvest efficiency are significantly limited by seed shattering, which represents a persistent agronomic constrain...

The rhizosphere is one of the most dynamic biological environments on Earth. Within this narrow zone surrounding plant roots, plants interact constantly with diverse communities of microorganisms including bacteria, fung...

Abstract Studying microbial biodiversity offers enormous potential for improving the valorisation of plant biomass, particularly in conversion processes. Microorganisms, such as bacteria, fungi, yeasts and algae, play an...

Abstract Selenoproteins incorporate the rare selenium-containing amino acid selenocysteine (Sec) and play crucial roles for redox homeostasis, stress response, and hormone regulation. Sec is inserted by co-translational ...

Abstract Background Weyers acrofacial dysostosis (WAD) is a rare autosomal dominant ciliopathy caused by heterozygous pathogenic variants in the EVC2 gene. The classic phenotype includes short stature, dental anomalies, ...

Abstract The rapid growth of biological resources and associated research outputs has increased the complexity of resource discovery, access, and reuse across heterogeneous repositories. However, fragmented metadata sche...

Abstract Background Drought intensity and frequency are increasing under global warming in the boreal forests, and breeding for drought resistance will facilitate adaptation of new planting material to changing climate c...

Abstract Background Preeclampsia (PE), a life-threatening hypertensive disorder of pregnancy, remains poorly characterized at the post-transcriptional regulation level. While alternative splicing (AS) perturbations drive...

Abstract Background Antenatal hydronephrosis (AHN) is a common urological abnormality identified during prenatal ultrasound examination, with heterogeneous underlying causes. This study aimed to investigate the genetic e...

Abstract Digitalis purpurea (foxglove) is a widely distributed ornamental plant. Here, we present a long read sequencing-based genome sequence of a magenta flowering D. purpurea plant and a corresponding prediction of ge...

Abstract Background Zanthoxylum armatum is a vital economic crop in China, but its cultivation is challenged by abiotic stresses like drought and cold. Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinases (MAPKKs) are central signal...

Abstract Objective Thyroid-stimulating hormone beta subunit (TSHB) gene, a member of the glycoprotein hormone beta subunit family, has been detected in ovarian tissues and granulosa cells (GCs) of several species, sugges...

Abstract Background Witches’ broom is an important disease of the Paulownia fortunei. Understanding the pathogenesis of witches’ broom is a prerequisite for its prevention and control. Phytoplasma is the pathogen of ...

Abstract Background Prolificacy is a crucial economic trait in goat production, yet its underlying molecular mechanisms remain incompletely understood due to its polygenic nature. While previous studies have identified s...
