Phytohormone signaling is fine-tuned by regulatory feedback loops. The phytohormone abscisic acid (ABA) plays key roles in plant development and abiotic stress tolerance. PYRABACTIN RESISTENCE 1/PYR1-LIKE/REGULATORY COMPONENT OF ABA RECEPTOR (PYR/PYL/RCAR) receptors sense ABA, and in turn, ABA represses their expression.

Article Synopsis
  • The Harpy Eagle, a vulnerable species facing habitat loss, is the focus of a new chromosome-scale genome assembly study that provides valuable insights into its genetics.
  • The assembled genome spans 1.35 Gb, showcasing high completeness and identifying over 7,200 intact transposable elements, including significant bursts of TEs at key evolutionary points.
  • The research highlights major chromosome rearrangements in the Harpy Eagle's lineage compared to related bird families and reveals a concerning decline in its population over the past 20,000 years, emphasizing the importance of the genome for future conservation initiatives.

Several hundred ciliate species live in animals' guts as a part of their microbiome. Among them, (Trichostomatia, Pycnotrichidae), the largest described ciliate, is found exclusively associated with (capybara), the largest known rodent reaching up to 90 kg. Here, we present the sequence, structural and functional annotation of this giant microeukaryote macronuclear genome and discuss its phylogenetic placement.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small noncoding RNAs that modulate gene expression through post-transcriptional regulation. Here, we report the identification and characterization of miRNAs in two closely related screwworm flies with different feeding habits: Cochliomyia hominivorax and Cochliomyia macellaria. The New World screwworm, C.

Article Synopsis
  • Sugarcane is a vital crop for sugar and alcohol production, and this study focused on analyzing six sugarcane genotypes through de novo assembly and transcriptome annotation.
  • Over 400 million short reads from the Illumina RNA-Seq platform were used to assemble 72,269 unigenes, with many showing significant similarities to sorghum proteins and revealing potentially new sugarcane genes not in existing databases.
  • Additionally, the research identified numerous molecular markers, including over 5,100 simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and over 700,000 single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), providing valuable resources for future genetic studies.
