Article Synopsis
  • After transcription, mRNA undergoes post-transcriptional regulation through RNA secondary structure and the modification N-methyladenosine (mA), both of which influence mRNA stability and translation in response to soil salinity.
  • Research shows that while RNA secondary structure changes significantly during salt stress, these changes occur independently of global RNA-protein interactions.
  • Salt-specific mA negatively correlates with RNA secondary structure, leading to increased mRNA stability for stress response proteins, which enhances the plant's ability to adapt to long-term salt stress.

Article Synopsis
  • Endosymbionts linked to whitefly cryptic species enhance the fitness and adaptation of their hosts, leading to an exploration of their genetic diversity across different environments in Pakistan.
  • Analysis identified whitefly mitotypes as part of the Asia II major clade (specifically II-1, II-5, and II-7) through mitochondrial gene sequencing, with a total of 43 distinct endosymbiont OTUs, primarily in mitotypes II-1 and II-7.
  • The distribution of these OTUs suggested a co-adaptation between the whitefly mitotypes and their endosymbionts, indicating potential horizontal transfer of OTUs among

To make genomic and epigenomic analyses more widely available to the biological research community, we have created LoadExp+, a suite of bioinformatics workflows integrated with the web-based comparative genomics platform, CoGe. LoadExp+ allows users to perform transcriptomic (RNA-seq), epigenomic (bisulfite-seq), chromatin-binding (ChIP-seq), variant identification (SNPs), and population genetics analyses against any genome in CoGe, including genomes integrated by users themselves. Through LoadExp+'s integration with CoGe's existing features, all analyses are available for visualization and additional downstream processing, and are available for export to CyVerse's data management and analysis platforms.
