The American bullfrog (Aquarana catesbeiana) is both an economically important aquaculture species and a globally distributed invasive organism with high environmental adaptability. In this study, we present a high-quality chromosome-level genome assembly for the species, …
Read PDFCyperus rotundus, a globally distributed and highly competitive weed, has evolved herbicide resistance, posing a significant challenge to sustainable agriculture; however, the lack of genomic resources has limited comprehensive investigations into its resistance mechanisms. Here, …
Read PDF<i>Ampelopsis grossedentata</i>, native to southern China, is renowned for its therapeutic and nutritional benefits, often called the "king of flavonoids" due to its high dihydromyricetin content. The dried stems, leaves, and shoot tips, known as …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>The cotton rat (Sigmodon hispidus), a rodent species native to the Americas, has emerged as a valuable laboratory model of infections by numerous human pathogens including poliovirus and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).<h4>Results</h4>Here we report the …
Read PDF<i>Clinacanthus nutans</i> is a traditional medicinal plant widely used in Southeast Asia for treating inflammation, viral infections, and cancer. However, its molecular basis remains poorly understood. In this study, the first chromosome-scale genome of <i>C. …
Read PDFThe filarioid nematode <i>Dirofilaria immitis</i> is the causative agent of heartworm disease, a major parasitic infection of canids, felids and occasionally humans. Current prevention relies on macrocyclic lactone-based chemoprophylaxis, but the emergence of drug resistance …
Read PDFThe wild apple, Malus fusca accession MAL0045, is highly resistant to fire blight disease, caused by the bacterial pathogen, Erwinia amylovora. A major resistance locus, FB_Mfu10 was identified on chromosome 10 of MAL0045 including other …
Read PDFAlnus glutinosa is one of only three lineages within the order Fagales capable of establishing root nodule symbiosis (RNS). Although a fragmented genome assembly of A. glutinosa was previously available, its limited quality, combined with …
Read PDFRheum tanguticum is renowned for its medicinal properties, including purgative, anti-inflammatory and hepatoprotective effects, primarily attributed to anthraquinones (AQs). However, the molecular mechanisms of AQs biosynthesis have largely been hindered by insufficient genomic resources and …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Eucalyptus urophylla × Eucalyptus grandis (E. urograndis) is a globally significant forest tree species renowned for its rapid growth, high yield, and exceptional wood production efficiency. A comparative analysis of its parental genomes, coupled with …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Thorny-headed worms (Acanthocephala) occur worldwide in gnathostome vertebrates feeding on mandibulate arthropods. They can manipulate host behavior, accumulate heavy metals, and have lately gained economic relevance as a pest in fish aquaculture. Yet, despite their …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Soil salinization threatens global rice production, driving the urgent need for salt-tolerant rice cultivars. Sea rice HD961, renowned for its exceptional salt tolerance, serves as an ideal model for elucidating molecular adaptations to salinity.<h4>Results</h4>In this …
Read PDFThe Southern Corroboree frog ( <i>Pseudophryne corroboree</i>; Anura; Myobatrachidae) is a Critically Endangered amphibian, according to the IUCN, and is endemic to the Snowy Mountains region of Kosciuszko National Park in New South Wales, Australia. …
Read PDFAnnotated coding sequences (CDSs) enable genome-wide estimates of alternative splicing. However, the quality and evidence support of these annotations can systematically bias estimates of splicing events across species. Here, we evaluate how annotation-related variables from …
Read PDF<i>Brassica juncea</i> var. <i>tumida</i>, commonly known as Zha Cai, is a pickled stem mustard widely cultivated in southern China. Its most distinctive trait is the swollen stem, which serves as the primary economic organ for …
Read PDFProcypris rabaudi, commonly known as the rock carp, is an endemic economic fish in the middle-upper reaches of the Yangtze River. To enhance the understanding the biology of rack carps, a high-quality reference genome is …
Read PDFAlpinia officinarum Hance, a medicinal and edible plant in the Zingiberaceae family, has applications in pharmaceuticals, food, nutraceuticals, spices, cosmetics, and fruit and vegetable preservation. However, the molecular mechanisms governing the biosynthesis of flavonoids, the …
Read PDF<i>Trichophyton verrucosum</i> is a zoophilic dermatophyte and the primary cause of bovine dermatophytosis, a contagious and economically significant skin disease with zoonotic potential. Despite its importance, high-quality genomic and transcriptomic resources for this species remain …
Read PDFAngelica sinensis (Danggui) is a long-valued herb in traditional Chinese medicine for treating gynecological and other health issues. Modern research has identified numerous bioactive compounds in A. sinensis roots, but the genetic and biosynthetic pathways …
Read PDFChanodichthys mongolicus, a carnivorous fish belonging to the Cyprinidae family (Erythroculter), is widely distributed in reservoirs and lakes across China. However, the lack of research on whole genome assembly has impeded advancements in genetic studies …
