Uneven Culturable Yeast Communities Harbored by Two Sympatric Stingless Bee Species: Scaptotrigona depilis and Tetragona clavipes

open access: yesYeast, EarlyView.
To explore the yeast diversity associated with Brazilian stingless bees, we collected samples from bees and their provisions. Sympatric bee species harbor distinct yeast communities, providing insights into bees' foraging choices. Moreover, these communities are dominated by specific taxa with similar metabolic profiles.

Distribution of Polymorphic and Non-Polymorphic Microsatellite Repeats in Xenopus tropicalis

open access: yes, 2008
The results of our bioinformatics analysis have found over 91,000 di-, tri-, and tetranucleotide microsatellites in our survey of 25% of the X. tropicalis genome, suggesting there may be over 360,000 within the entire genome. Within the X.

Large‐Scale Applications of Plasma Technologies: Progresses and Challenges

open access: yesHigh Voltage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Plasma technologies convert electrical power into energetic electrons, ions, reactive species, radiation and heat, thereby breaking through the bottleneck of purely thermal or chemical routes and bringing impressive changes to our world. This roadmap reviews the progress and challenges of plasma technologies from a large‐scale and application ...

The Size, Demography, and Distribution of Cambodia's Largest Elephant Population Revealed Using Traditional Genetic Tools and a Novel SNP Panel

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Asian elephant population parameters were assessed using microsatellite, SNP, and sex determination DNA markers. This represents one of the first studies in mainland Asia to demonstrate that integrating microsatellite and SNP data enhances genotyping success from degraded fecal samples, increases the number of useable samples and markers, and ...

Whole‐Genome Sequencing and Resequencing of Hucho bleekeri Provides Insights into Genetic Mechanisms of Environmental Adaptation

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
A high‐quality chromosome‐level reference genome was constructed for Hucho bleekeri. Population structure and environmental adaptation of Hucho species were revealed by whole‐genome resequencing. ABSTRACT Salmonidae represents an important family in the study of genome evolution following genome duplication.

Divergence Linked to Possible Ecological Speciation in Blind Mole Rats: Integration of Thermal Biology and Bite Force in the Upper Galilee Blind Mole Rat (Nannospalax galili)

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
Basalt‐dwelling blind mole rats maintain lower body temperatures, show greater post‐digging thermal increases, and dig more efficiently than those from rendzina soils. Although metabolic rates and bite force did not differ between populations, these thermal and physiological shifts align with the greater mechanical resistance and seasonal hypoxia of ...

Chromosome‐Level Genome Assembly of Strauchbufo raddei and Multi‐Omic Insights Into Drought Adaptation

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Understanding how amphibians adapt to terrestrial and arid environments is important for elucidating vertebrate terrestrialization. In this study, we present the first chromosome‐level, high‐quality genome assembly of Strauchbufo raddei, constructed using PacBio HiFi long‐read sequencing and Hi‐C scaffolding. The assembled genome is 4.47 Gb in

Inheritance of Its1 Region Microsatellite-Like Repeats in the Noble Crayfish, Astacus Astacus (Decapoda, Astacidea)

open access: yes, 2011
We assessed heritability of an ITS1 microsatellite-like repeat pattern in the noble crayfish (Astacus astacus (Linnaeus, 1758)) on 17 families (parents and offspring) by using DNA fragment length analysis (ALFexpress).

Genomic Assessment of Reintroduced African Wild Dogs Informs Conservation Translocations

open access: yesAnimal Conservation, EarlyView.
Few reintroduction and translocation programs incorporate genomic assessments into management planning, despite ongoing debate over how founder individuals should be selected. Here, we assess the genomic composition of reintroduced African wild dog (Lycaon pictus) populations in private reserves in South Africa, comparing them with a free‐roaming ...
