The Malvaceae family, comprising 9 subfamilies and 4,225 species, includes economically significant taxa, such as Ceiba pentandra, Gossypium ekmanianum, Gossypium stephensii, Kokia drynarioides, Talipariti hamabo, and Durio zibethinus. Chloroplast (cp) genome research is crucial for elucidating the evolutionary divergence and species identification within this family. In this study, we assembled and annotated cp genomes of six Malvaceae species, conducting comprehensive comparative genomic and phylogenomic analyses.

Previous research has demonstrated that short-term high temperatures induce differential expression of the vitellogenin receptor (ZcVgR) gene, reducing the number of eggs laid and the lifespan of female Z. cucurbitae.

- Researchers collected and sterilized samples from diseased plants to isolate and identify the responsible pathogen, obtaining four distinct Gram-negative bacterial colonies via lab culture techniques.
- Genetic analysis, including 16S rDNA sequencing, showed high similarity to known reference strains, confirming the pathogen's identity and contributing to the understanding of the disease affecting jackfruit.
