Multi‐omics reveal the gut microbiota‐mediated severe foraging environment adaption of small wild ruminants in the Three‐River‐Source National Park, China

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This research reveals the gut microbiota‐mediated severe foraging environment adaptation of wild small ruminants in the Three‐River‐Source National Park. Unlike Tibetan sheep (TS), blue sheep (PN and Tibetan antelope (TA) often grazed low‐quality herbage in a wildness environment, and the higher microbial diversity and resilient network characteristics

Shifting microbial communities in acidified seawaters: insights from polychaetes living in the CO2 vent of Ischia, Italy

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
The microbiome of polychaetes Syllis prolifera and Platynereis massiliensis complex changes in naturally acidified CO2 vents. A slight degree of acidification is associated with relevant changes in the microbial community, stressing the importance of investigations about the possible effects of ocean acidification on key biological and ecological ...

Identification and characterisation of Zucchini yellow fleck virus and a novel Nepovirus from next‐generation sequencing of mixed virus infections in cucumbers (Cucumis sativus) from Crete

Annals of Applied Biology, EarlyView.
High‐throughput sequencing from cucumber leaf samples collected in Crete, Greece, revealed mixed infections including a cucumber‐infecting isolate of Zucchini yellow fleck virus and a novel nepovirus, provisionally named cucumber nepovirus A (CuNVA).

Characterization of the complete chloroplast genome of Gastrochilus sinensis (Orchidaceae, Epidendroideae), a beautiful epiphytic orchid from China

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources
Gastrochilus sinensis is a beautiful epiphytic orchid with high ornamental value. In this study, the first complete chloroplast genome sequence of G. sinensis was determined using next-generation sequencing (NGS). The de novo assembled chloroplast genome

Cross‐continental variation of herbivore resistance in a global plant invader

Ecography, EarlyView.
While successful plant invasions often occur in novel environments, invasive species usually occupy broad niches within their native and introduced ranges. A better understanding of the process of invasion therefore requires a wide sampling of ranges, and a good knowledge of introduction history.

Modelling of light driven CO2 concentration gradient and photosynthetic carbon assimilation flux distribution at the chloroplast level [PDF]

arXiv, 2012
The steady state of the two-substance model of light driven carbon turnover for the photosynthetic CO2 assimilation rate is presented. The model is based on the nonlinear diffusion equation for a single chloroplast in the elliptical geometry by assuming light driven Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP) regeneration and CO2 assimilation reaction of ...

Protein import into bacterial endosymbionts and evolving organelles

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
The acquisition of bacterial endosymbionts by ancient host cells followed by massive adaptation of the partners gave rise to mitochondria and plastids. Today, various systems with younger and less integrated endosymbionts provide insights into the initial steps in the endosymbiont to organelle transition.

Tracing the evolutionary pathway: on the origin of mitochondria and eukaryogenesis

The FEBS Journal, EarlyView.
This study examines the stepwise transition from archaeal–bacterial associations to the emergence of eukaryotic cells. Metabolic cooperation and endosymbiosis fostered ecological and genetic integration, with extensive gene transfer reshaping host biology.

Genetic Manipulation of the Chloroplast Genome

, 1989
Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the genetic manipulation of the chloroplast genome. Chloroplasts are one of a group of organelles, the plastids, which are vital for the metabolic functioning of plants. Chloroplasts are the site of photosynthesis and many biosynthetic reactions, but other, non-green plastids also carry out essential metabolic
