Jin & Bu, from China is described and illustrated. It is characterized by a deeply emarginated posterior margin of tergite 2, less differentiated marginal setae on all tergites, absence of seta a3 around the antennal base, and 6-8 setae on the first tergite. The complete mitochondrial genome of the new species is also analyzed and compared with the mitogenome of . In the reconstructed Neighbor-Joining tree based on COI gene sequences, clusters with , however, with big distances. The genetic divergence among and congeners, species of and , and both families of Symphyla was analyzed using COI gene sequences.

Genetic Mechanism Analysis Related to Cold Tolerance of Red Swamp Crayfish, Procambarus clarkii.

Mar Biotechnol (NY)

January 2025

Key Laboratory of Efficient Utilization of Non-grain Feed Resources (Co-construction by Ministry and Province) of Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Affairs, Shandong Agricultural University, Taian, Shandong, China.

In China, the red swamp crayfish (Procambarus clarkii), a notorious invasive species, has become an important economic freshwater species. In order to compare the genetic diversity and population structure of crayfish from northern and southern China, we collected 60 crayfish individuals from 4 crayfish populations in northern China and 2 populations in southern China for sequencing using the 2b-RAD technique. Additionally, the whole genome sequence information obtained by 2b-RAD of 90 individuals from 2 populations in northern China and 7 populations in southern China were downloaded from NCBI.

Radiotherapy is an integral component in the treatment of many types of cancer, with approximately half of cancer patients receiving radiotherapy. Systemic therapy applies pressure that can select for resistant tumor subpopulations, underscoring the importance of understanding how radiation impacts tumor evolution to improve treatment outcomes. We integrated temporal genomic profiling of 120 spatially distinct tumor regions from 20 patients with undifferentiated pleomorphic sarcomas (UPS), longitudinal circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) analysis, and evolutionary biology computational pipelines to study UPS evolution during tumorigenesis and in response to radiotherapy.

Helminths infection of Schizothorax niger in Kashmir, India: morphological and molecular characterization.

January 2025

Division of Animal Biotechnology, Faculty of Veterinary Sciences & Animal Husbandry, SKUAST-K, Srinagar, India.

Background: The identification of helminth parasites in Schizothorax spp. from Kashmir, including Schyzocotyle acheilognathi, Pomphorhynchus kashmirensis, and Adenoscolex oreini, is hindered by morphological limitations and high intraspecific variation. While previous studies have relied on morphological diagnosis, a comprehensive molecular characterization is lacking.

Polymorphic short insertions and deletions (INDELs ≤ 50 bp) are abundant, although less common than single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Evidence from model organisms shows INDELs to be more strongly influenced by purifying selection than SNPs. Partly for this reason, INDELs are rarely used as markers for demographic processes or to detect divergent selection.

Territorial aggression is widespread across the animal kingdom and is expressed in diverse ecological and social contexts. In addition, there are marked variations in the degree of male reproductive territoriality within and between species. These differences are often attributed to genetic components.
