Timber, the most prevalent organic material on this planet, is the result of a secondary xylem emerging from vascular cambium. Yet, the intricate processes governing its seasonal generation are largely a mystery. To better understand the cyclic growth of vascular tissues in elm, we undertook an extensive study examining the anatomy, physiology, and genetic expressions in Ulmus pumila.

Mating may promote microbial diversity through sexual transmission, while mating-induced immune responses may decrease it. Therefore, the study of mating-induced microbiomes changes under different mating systems is informative to unravel its biological relevance and evolutionary significance. Here, we studied the microbiomes in a community context within the abdomen of females using 16S rDNA sequences by setting virgin females, and females mated once, twice, or thrice with the same or different males.

It is highly necessary to understand the molecular mechanism underlying the salt stress response in green algae, which may contribute to finding the evolutionary cues of abiotic stress response in plants. Here, we reported a comprehensive temporal investigation of transcriptomes using data at eight different time points, from an early stage (2 h) to a late stage (up to 96 h) in GY-D55 cells. The principal component analysis (PCA) of transcriptome profiles showed that the samples of the early and late stages were well separated.

As one of the most severe environmental stresses, salt stress can cause a series of changes in plants. In salt tolerant plant Zoysia macrostachya, germination, physiology, and genetic variation under salinity have been studied previously, and the morphology and distribution of salt glands have been clarified. However, no study has investigated the transcriptome of such species under salt stress.

The complete chloroplast genome (plastome) of , an annual halophytic herb, was determined in this study. The plastome was 149,807 bp in size, containing a large single-copy region (82,162 bp), a small single-copy region (18,191 bp), and two inverted repeats regions (24,727 bp). The overall GC content of this plastome was 36.

, an annual halophytic herb, is one of the most important Chinese herbal medicines, forages and indicator plants for saline-alkali soil. In this study, we report the complete plastome of . The plastome was 152,237 bp in length and comprises a large single-copy region (83,721 bp), a small single-copy region (18,096 bp), and a pair of inverted repeats (25,210 bp).

, an annual succulent halophytic herb, is one of the major halophyte widely distributed in both saline inland and the intertidal zone. In this study, we report the complete chloroplast genome (plastome) of . The plastome was 151,642 bp in length and comprises a large single-copy region (83,502 bp), a small single-copy region (17,780 bp), and a pair of inverted repeats (25,180 bp).

Sewage sludge composting is an important environmental measure. The reduction of nitrogen loss is a critical aim of compost maturation, and the addition of spent mushrooms (SMs) and herbal residues (HRs) may be helpful. To evaluate the nitrogen transformations during co-composting of sewage sludge, SMs, and HRs, windrows were constructed in a residual processing plant.
