Taro (Colocasia esculenta), a crop native to Southeast Asia, is classified under the genus Colocasia of the family Araceae. Here, the taro genome was assembled to the chromosome level, yielding a 2,336.63 Mb assembly with …
Read PDF<i>Madhuca hainanensis</i> and <i>Madhuca pasquieri</i> are endangered species in China, classified as vulnerable on the IUCN red list. Compared to the fast-growing <i>Madhuca longifolia</i>, they exhibit lower fruit set and distinct floral morphology. Here, we …
Read PDFWe present a chromosome-level reference genome for the blind scorpion <i>Belisarius xambeui</i> Simon, 1879 (Belisariidae, Scorpiones). The genome size estimated by flow cytometry (4.32 Gb) closely matches the final assembly size (3.98 Gb). The final …
Read PDFFicus benjamina, the weeping fig, is one of the most widely distributed and cultivated figs, with important ecological functions and landscape value. However, the lack of a reference genome has hindered molecular and functional research …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Astragalus (Fabaceae), the largest genus of flowering plants with its phytogeographic center in Southwest Asia, is ecologically and medicinally vital, as high-quality forage and a source of traditional medicine. However, its ambiguous morphological traits hinder …
Read PDFThe wild raspberry species <i>Rubus sumatranus</i> Miq 1861 is a promising resource for breeding thermotolerant cultivars. Its complete chloroplast genome spans 155,935 base pairs (bp), featuring the classic quadripartite structure: an 18,729 bp small single-copy …
Read PDF<h4>Background</h4>Reference genomes have a wide range of applications, but we are far from a complete genomic picture of the tree of life. We here contribute another piece to the puzzle by providing a high-quality reference …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from an individual of <i>Inga leiocalycina</i> (Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Fabales; Fabaceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 948.00 megabases. Most of the assembly is scaffolded into 13 chromosomal pseudomolecules. …
Read PDFAs a group of winged insects (Pterygota) retaining many primitive characteristics, genomic research on mayflies remains highly limited, posing challenges to the study of their origin and evolution. In this study, we present the first …
Read PDF<i>Prunus spinulosa</i> (2n = 4x = 32) is an evergreen species of significant medicinal usage and ecological value. However, the lacking of a high-quality genome of <i>P. spinulosa</i> has obstructed further exploration of its ecological …
Read PDFSex role differentiation is a widespread phenomenon. Sex pheromones are often associated with sex roles and convey sex-specific information. In Lepidoptera, females release sex pheromones to attract males, which evolve sophisticated olfactory structures to relay …
Read PDFThe family <i>Morchellaceae</i> contains four truffle-forming genera: <i>Fischerula</i>, <i>Imaia</i>, <i>Kalapuya</i>, and <i>Leucangium</i>. In North America, some <i>Imaia</i>, <i>Kalapuya</i>, and <i>Leucangium</i> species are highly regarded gourmet edible fungi. In this study, we address longstanding questions about …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from afemale specimen of <i>Andrena trimmerana</i> (Trimmer's Mining Bee; Arthropoda; Insecta; Hymenoptera; Andrenidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 399.10 megabases. Most of the assembly (86.18%) is scaffolded …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a female <i>Pycnomerus fuliginosus</i> (beetle; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Zopheridae). The genome sequence has a total length of 359.22 megabases. Most of the assembly (95.81%) is scaffolded into 11 chromosomal …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly of the diplonemid <i>Rhynchopus euleeides</i> (Euglenozoa; Diplonemea; Diplonemea; Diplonemidae). The genome sequence is 199.0 megabases long, with most of the assembly scaffolded into 88 chromosomal pseudomolecules. The multipartite mitochondrial genome …
Read PDFThanatophilus sinuatus (Coleoptera: Staphylinidae), a widespread necrophagous beetle frequently recovered from remains, is critical for post-mortem interval estimation. The absence of a reference genome has limited molecular studies of its forensic traits. Here, we report …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from a specimen of <i>Alisma plantago-aquatica</i> (common water plantain; Streptophyta; Magnoliopsida; Alismatales; Alismataceae). The genome sequence has a total length of 9,377.97 megabases. Most of the assembly (99.53%) is scaffolded …
Read PDFWe present a genome assembly from an individual female specimen of <i>Brachypterus glaber</i> (beetle; Arthropoda; Insecta; Coleoptera; Kateretidae). The genome sequence has a total length of 648.30 megabases. Most of the assembly (95.55%) is scaffolded …
Read PDFPolyethylene (PE) is a primary contributor to environmental plastic pollution, posing a critical risk to ecosystems and living organisms. This study screened six yeast strains (BI.4.1.1, K3.1.2, M.5.0.1, M.5.0.3, M.6.0.1, and M.6.0.2) isolated from marine …
Read PDF<i>Phaeodactylum tricornutum</i> is one of the most well-characterized microalgae and serves as a pivotal model diatom in global carbon fixation and the mediation of biogeochemical cycling of essential nutrients. Over the past few decades, the …
