Brown ducks carrying DHBV were widely used as hepatitis B animal model in the research of the activity and toxicity of anti-HBV dugs. Studies showed that the ratio of DHBV carriers in the brown ducks in Guilin region was relatively high. Nevertheless, the characters of the DHBV genome of Guilin brown duck remain unknown. Here we report the cloning of the genome of Guilin brown duck DHBV and the sequence analysis of the genome. The full length of the DHBV genome of Guilin brown duck was 3 027bp. Analysis using ORF finder found that there was an ORF for an unknown peptide other than S-ORF, PORF and C-ORF in the genome of the DHBV. Vector NTI 8. 0 analysis revealed that the unknown peptide contained a motif which binded to HLA * 0201. Aligning with the DHBV sequences from different countries and regions indicated that there were no obvious differences of regional distribution among the sequences. A fluorescence quantitative PCR for detecting DHBV was establishment based on the recombinant plasmid pGEM-DHBV-S constructed. This study laid the groundwork for using Guilin brown duck as a hepatitis B animal model.

This study comprehensively investigated the impact of different storage times on the quality and metabolomic profiles of Liupao tea (LPT). The sensory evaluations revealed that both Maosheng (MS) and Tianyu (TY) teas exhibited a browning of tea appearance and brightening of tea infusion during storage. The taste evolved from bitterness and astringency to purity and briskness, while the aroma shifted from stuffy to woody and aged aromas.

Article Synopsis
- A disease affecting L. plants in Tiandong, China, was identified in June 2022, resulting in yellow lesions and brown spots on around 5500 plants, leading to wilting leaves.
- Researchers collected diseased leaf samples, disinfected them, and cultured them on potato dextrose agar, successfully isolating 15 fungal strains for further study.
- The genetic analysis of three selected fungal isolates revealed a high level of similarity (99%-100%) to a previously identified isolate, confirming their classification and contributing to the understanding of this plant disease.
