Published: June 2022

We present genomes and pupal transcriptomes of the Mediterranean flour moth, . The moth is a world-wide storage pest as well as a laboratory species with a considerable background in developmental biology, genetics, and cytogenetics. The sequence data were derived from a highly inbred laboratory strain and, hence, display very little heterozygosity. Female and male genomes and transcriptomes are represented separately in two sets each of raw and assembled sequence data. They are designed as a basis to develop new strategies in pest control, to elucidate the molecular adaptation for its peculiar lifestyle, and for research on sex chromosome structure, sex determination and sex-specific gene activity. For a test, all genes known or suspected to have a role in sex determination were extracted from the data. Raw sequencing data and assemblies are available at European Nucleotide Archive under accession number PRJEB49052.

Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) remains a malignant and life-threatening tumor with an extremely poor prognosis, posing a significant global health challenge. Despite the continuous emergence of novel therapeutic agents, patients exhibit substantial heterogeneity in their responses to anti-tumor drugs and overall prognosis. The pentose phosphate pathway (PPP) is highly activated in various tumor cells and plays a pivotal role in tumor metabolic reprogramming.

The expansion of single-cell analytical techniques has empowered the exploration of diverse biological questions at the individual cells. Droplet-based single-cell RNA sequencing (scRNA-seq) methods have been particularly widely used due to their high-throughput capabilities and small reaction volumes. While commercial systems have contributed to the widespread adoption of droplet-based scRNA-seq, their relatively high cost limits the ability to profile large numbers of cells and samples.

Background: Biological control methods involving entomopathogenic fungi like Beauveria bassiana have been shown to be a valuable approach in integrated pest management as an environmentally friendly alternative to control pests and pathogens. Identifying genetic determinants of pathogenicity in B. bassiana is instrumental for enhancing its virulence against insects like the resistant soybean pest Piezodorus guildinii.

Patient-centered precision oncology strives to deliver individualized cancer care. In lung cancer, preclinical models and technological innovations have become critical in advancing this approach. Preclinical models enable deeper insights into tumor biology and enhance the selection of appropriate systemic therapies across chemotherapy, targeted therapies, immunotherapies, antibody-drug conjugates, and emerging investigational treatments.
