The nucleotide sequence of a swine vesicular disease virus (SVDV) strain that is pathogenic for pigs has been determined and compared with that of a non-pathogenic strain of SVDV, as well as a number of other enteroviruses. It shows only 98 base changes in comparison with a non-pathogenic strain of SVDV (Inoue et al., 1989, J. Gen. Virol. 70, 919-934). Fourteen of these nucleotide differences between the pathogenic and the non-pathogenic SVDV strains occur in the 5' non-coding region which, by analogy with the other picornaviruses, has been implicated in the efficiency with which the RNA is employed as mRNA. Additional differences found throughout the coding regions are largely conservative in nature. A number of residues are discussed as candidates for determinants of pathogenicity. This sequence has been submitted to the PIR database and has accession number A30061.

The one-pot terpolymerization of epoxide (EP), anhydride (AH), and CO to synthesize polyester-polycarbonate copolymers with precise sequences remains a significant challenge in polymer chemistry. In this study, promising progress was achieved by utilizing a cyclic trimeric phosphazene base (CTPB) and triethylboron (TEB) as a binary catalyst, enabling the synthesis of both well-defined block and truly random poly(ester-carbonate) copolymers through the one-pot terpolymerization of EP/AH/CO. By adjusting the molar ratio of CTPB/TEB to 1/0.

Background: Pseudogalium is a new monotypic genus with two subspecies in China and one in Japan, which holds a distinctive phylogenetic position and ecological significance within the tribe Rubieae. Chloroplast genomes contain abundant information for resolving phylogenetic relationships. To investigate the phylogenetics of P.

Background: Allele-specific expression (ASE) analysis provides a nuanced view of cis-regulatory mechanisms affecting gene expression.
Results: An equine ASE analysis was performed, using integrated Iso-seq and short-read RNA sequencing data from four healthy Thoroughbreds (2 mares and 2 stallions) across 9 tissues from the Functional Annotation of Animal Genomes (FAANG) project. Allele expression was quantified by haplotypes from long-read data, with 42,900 allele expression events compared.

Background: Study the leaf functional traits is highly important for understanding the survival strategies and climate adaptability of old trees. In this study, the old (over 100 years old) and mature trees (about 50 years old) of Pinus tabulaeformis in the Loess Plateau were studied, and the variation of 18 leaf functional traits (6 economic, 4 anatomical, 2 photosynthetic and 6 physiological traits) was analyzed to understand the differences of survival strategies between old and mature trees. Combined with transcriptome and simple sequence repeats (SSR) techniques, the effects of soil property factors and genetic factors on leaf functional traits and the potential molecular mechanisms of traits differences were studied.
