Pod dehiscence brings much loss for modern agricultural production, and multiple pod dehiscence components have been identified in many plant species. However, the pod dehiscence regulation factors in soybean are limited. In this study, we investigate the function of GmDIR26, a close homologues gene of pod dehiscence genes GmPdh1, PvPdh1, and CaPdh1,...

Background. Genome data have been used to find novel allergen from house dust mites. Here, we aim to construct a chromosome-level genome assembly of Dermatophagoides farinae, a common allergenic mite species. Methods. We achieved a chromosome-level assembly of D. farinae’s genome by integrating PacBio single-molecule real-time sequencing, Illumina paired-end...

The MC4-2 bacterium strain was isolated and purified from the Periplaneta americana intestine as a biocontrol agent with good antagonistic effect against the pathogens of a soil-borne disease called tobacco black shank. The MC4-2 strain was found to have good broad-spectrum inhibition by plate stand-off test. Based on 16S rRNA and gyrB genes, ANI analysis,...

Background. Epithelial ovarian cancer, primarily serous ovarian cancer (SOC), stands as a predominant cause of cancer-related mortality among women globally, emphasizing the urgent need for comprehensive research into its molecular underpinnings. Within this context, the dual-specificity tyrosine phosphorylation-regulated kinase 3 (DYRK3) has emerged...

The challenge facing Helicobacter pylori (H. pylori) infection management in some parts of Africa is the evolution of drug-resistant species, the lack of gold standard in diagnostic methods, and the ineffectiveness of current vaccines against the bacteria. It is being established that even though clinical consequences linked to the bacteria vary geographically,...

Wiskott-Aldrich syndrome (WAS) is a rare X-linked recessive genetic disease characterized by clinical symptoms such as eczema, thrombocytopenia with small platelets, immune deficiency, prone to autoimmune diseases, and malignant tumors. This disease is caused by mutations of the WAS gene encoding WASprotein (WASP). The locus and type of mutations of...
