Small RNA sequencing analysis in two chickpea genotypes, JG 62 (Fusarium wilt-susceptible) and WR 315 (Fusarium wilt-resistant), under Fusarium wilt stress led to identification of 544 miRNAs which included 406 known and 138 novel miRNAs. A total of 115 miRNAs showed differential expression in both the genotypes across different combinations. A miRNA, Car-miR398 targeted copper chaperone for superoxide dismutase (CCS) that, in turn, regulated superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity during chickpea-Foc interaction.

Background: The gray snapper (Lutjanus griseus) is a marine reef fish commonly found in coastal and shelf waters of the tropical and subtropical western Atlantic Ocean. In this work, a draft reference genome was developed to support population genomic studies of gray snapper needed to assist with conservation and fisheries management efforts.
Methods And Results: Hybrid assembly of PacBio and Illumina sequencing reads yielded a 1,003,098,032 bp reference across 2039 scaffolds with N50 and L50 values of 1,691,591 bp and 163 scaffolds, respectively.

Background: Applying single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) to the study of neurodegenerative disease has propelled the field towards a more refined cellular understanding of Alzheimer's disease (AD); however, directly linking protein pathology to transcriptomic changes has not been possible at scale. Recently, a high-throughput method was developed to generate high-quality scRNA-seq data while retaining cytoplasmic proteins. Tau is a cytoplasmic protein and when hyperphosphorylated is integrally involved in AD progression.

Background: The recent European-ancestry based genome-wide association study (GWAS) of Alzheimer disease (AD) by Bellenguez2022 has identified 75 significant genetic loci, but only a few have been functionally mapped to effector gene level. Besides the large-scale RNA expression, protein and metabolite levels are key molecular traits bridging the genetic variants to AD risk, and thus we decided to integrate them into the genetic analysis to pinpoint key proteins and metabolites underlying AD etiology. Few studies have generated more than one layer of post-transcriptional phenotypes, limiting the scale of biological translation of disease modifying treatments.

Background: Abnormal tau protein accumulation selectively affects distinct brain regions and specific neuron and glia populations in tau-related dementias like Alzheimer's disease (AD), frontotemporal dementia (FTD, Pick's disease type), and Progressive supranuclear palsy (PSP). The regulatory mechanisms governing cell-type vulnerability remain unclear.
Method: In a cross-disorder single-nucleus analysis, we examined 663,896 nuclei, assessing chromatin accessibility in three brain regions (motor cortex, visual cortex and insular cortex) across PSP, AD, and FTD in 40 individuals.
