In vitro production of porcine-hatched blastocysts is important for various applications. However, the mechanobiology of blastocoel expansion and hatching remains poorly understood. Our study aimed to efficiently produce hatched blastocysts and investigate the hatching mechanics of late-stage porcine embryos using time-lapse assessment.

Article Synopsis
  • Mell 1913 is a butterfly species unique to China, primarily found in forest canopies, and its mitochondrial genome has been sequenced, revealing a typical butterfly gene arrangement.
  • The mitochondrial genome comprises 13 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs, and 2 rRNAs, with notable aspects such as atypical start codons and completing stop codons inferred from the mRNA.
  • Phylogenetic analysis indicates that Mell 1913's mitogenome is closely related to other butterflies in the Coliadinae subfamily, supporting some previous molecular studies while challenging a morphology-based hypothesis on its relationships.
