AI Article Synopsis

  • The study analyzed genetic sequences of 9 Gynostemma species to understand their evolutionary relationships, using Hemsleya macrosperma as an outgroup.
  • The analysis revealed that G. pentaphyllum var. pentaphyllum did not form a clear monophyletic group in the phylogenetic trees generated.
  • There is uncertainty regarding whether G. longipes and G. laxum should be classified as separate species, and the study supports the current classification of subgenus units within Gynostemma.

Article Abstract

The sequences of ITS, matK, rbcL and psbA-trnH of 9 Gynostemma species or variety including 38 samples were compared and analyzed by molecular phylogeny method. Hemsleya macrosperma was designated as outgroup. The MP and NJ phylogenetic tree of Gynostemma was built based on ITS sequence, the results of PAUP phylogenetic analysis showed the following results: (1) The eight individuals of G. pentaphyllum var. pentaphyllum were not supported as monophyletic in the strict consensus trees and NJ trees. (2) It is suspected whether G. longipes and G. laxum should be classified as the independent species. (3)The classification of subgenus units of Gynostemma plants is supported.

Using -rhizobia- interaction networks, we address first the soil invasion success of , and second, we report either -rhizobia partnership should form an isolated module within the symbiosis interaction network. Different indexes were used to determine model invasion success and the network topology. Our results indicated that invasion decreased soil microbial biomass, basal respiration, and enzymatic activities.

is a traditional Chinese medicinal herb rich in various bioactive secondary metabolites, such as alkaloids and flavonoids, and exhibits remarkable resistance to abiotic stress. The WRKY transcription factor (TF) family is one of the largest plant-specific TF families and plays a crucial role in plant growth, development, and responses to abiotic stress. However, a comprehensive genome-wide analysis of the WRKY gene family in has not yet been conducted.

Nucleotide sequence can be translated in three reading frames from 5' to 3' producing distinct protein products. Many examples of RNA translation in two reading frames (dual coding) have been identified so far. We report simultaneous translation of mRNA transcripts derived from locus in all three reading frames that result in the synthesis of long proteins.

Unlabelled: Understanding the evolution of cancer in its early stages is critical to identifying key drivers of cancer progression and developing better early diagnostics or prophylactic treatments. Early cancer is difficult to observe, though, since it is generally asymptomatic until extensive genetic damage has accumulated. In this study, we develop a computational approach to infer how once-healthy cells enter into and become committed to a pathway of aggressive cancer.
