Involvement of Phosphatidylserine and Triacylglycerol in the Response of Sweet Potato Leaves to Salt Stress

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2019
Lipid remodeling plays an important role in the adaptation of plants to environmental factors, but the mechanism by which lipid remodeling mediates salt stress response remains unclear.

The Embryonic Development of the Cotylean Polyclad Phrikoceros jannetae

Acta Zoologica, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Polyclads exhibit distinct developmental modes ranging from direct to indirect development, with several transitional stages also recognised. The existence of an indirect developmental mode in polyclads with a planktonic life history stage in the form of a free‐swimming larva is unique among all free‐living flatworms and makes polyclads a ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of the pulmonate snail Melampus sincaporensis (Gastropoda: ellobiidae) from South Korea

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources
The pulmonate snail Melampus sincaporensis L. Pfeiffer, 1855 (Gastropoda: Ellobiidae) lives in extreme environments such as salt marshes with limited oxygen. Here, we characterized the complete mitochondrial genome of M.

Melatonin-Stimulated Triacylglycerol Breakdown and Energy Turnover under Salinity Stress Contributes to the Maintenance of Plasma Membrane H+–ATPase Activity and K+/Na+ Homeostasis in Sweet Potato

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018
Melatonin (MT) is a multifunctional molecule in animals and plants and is involved in defense against salinity stress in various plant species. In this study, MT pretreatment was simultaneously applied to the roots and leaves of sweet potato seedlings ...

PhyKIT: A Multitool for Phylogenomics

Current Protocols
AbstractMultiple sequence alignments and phylogenetic trees are rich in biological information and are fundamental to research in biology. PhyKIT is a tool for processing and analyzing the information content of multiple sequence alignments and phylogenetic trees.

Phylogenomic analysis of ultraconserved elements clarifies relationships and morphological evolution in Cryptoplacoidea (Mollusca: Polyplacophora)

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract Targeted enrichment of ultraconserved elements (UCEs) is a powerful tool for resolving phylogeny in groups with limited morphological or molecular data. Here, we use UCEs to reconstruct the first comprehensive phylogeny of the chiton superfamily Cryptoplacoidea, including museum material up to 133 years old.

The complete mitochondrial genome of a ground beetle, Chlaenius naeviger (Carabidae: Harpalinae: Chlaeniini), from South Korea

Mitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources
Chlaenius naeviger Morawitz, 1862 is a ground beetle species with a potential as a biological control agent for agricultural pests. In this study, we sequenced and annotated the complete mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) of C.

Phylogenetics and phylogenomics of rust fungi

, 2017
Rust fungi (Pucciniales) are the most speciose and the most complex group of plant pathogens. Historically, rust taxonomy was largely influenced by host and phenotypic characters, which are potentially plastic.

Morphology‐based phylogeny of longhorn beetles (Coleoptera, Cerambycidae) aligns with phylogenomics and informs higher‐level systematics

Cladistics, EarlyView.
Abstract We present a morphology‐based backbone phylogeny of Cerambycidae beetles inferred by parsimony analyses using 77 adult characters scored for 101 species. This phylogeny is largely consistent with recent phylogenomic studies regarding key placements (e.g., Parandrini stat. rev. within Prioninae, Necydalini stat. rev.

New gene origin and deep taxon phylogenomics: opportunities and challenges

, 2019
The immense morphological and phenotypic diversity within eukaryotes coincides with large-scale differences in genic repertoires, including the presence of thousands of new genes in every genome.
