The complete mitochondrial genome of D. vaneyi was a 14,959 bp-long circular molecule (Table 1 and Fig. 1). It contained 36 genes, comprising 12 PCGs, 22 tRNAs, two rRNAs, and a major non-coding region (NCR). Similar to other Neodermata, it lacked the atp8 gene. We identified 22 intergenic regions (ranging from 1 to 46 bp in length), and four overlaps between pairs of genes (ranging from 1 to 40 bp in length). The largest overlap was identified between nad4L and nad4 genes (Table 1).

AbstractPlant-soil feedbacks (PSFs) play an important role in mediating plant species coexistence, community dynamics and ecosystem functioning. Soil biota (e.g. mutualists, pathogens), nutrient availability and secondary chemicals can drive the strength and direction of PSFs, but the variations and context-dependence of their effects remain unclear.

INTRODUCTION Phyllosphere microbes are microorganisms inhabiting plant above-ground tissues and mainly comprise bacteria and fungi considered beneficial symbionts with antagonistic properties (Xu et al., 2022). Phyllosphere microbiota obtain nutrients from host plants, which provide them with favorable growth conditions, and in turn, stimulate physiological processes that contribute to plant health and productivity (Sohrabi et al., 2023).

The alfalfa genome files used were obtained from XinJiangDaYe, and these files were obtained from the figshare projects (https://figshare.com/projects/whole_genome_sequencing_and_assembly_of_Medicago_sativa/66380). The Hidden Markov Model (HMM) files for two domains of the JAZ protein, the TIFY domain (PF06200) and the JAS domain (PF09425), were downloaded from the Pfam protein family database (http://pfam.sanger.ac.uk/). The identification of JAZ proteins in alfalfa was performed in three steps.

When dug out, hibernating frogs were corporeal frozen with rigid limbs, tightly closed eyelids, visible signs of dehydration, and ice particles around the body. Three of six partly frozen frogs recovered when exposed to room temperature. The RNA integrity number (RIN) value was 7.8 in mixed twelve samples sequenced in Pacific Bioscience (PacBio) Sequel platform. Using Single Molecule Real-Time (SMRT) sequencing technology from PacBio, a full-length transcriptome of R. kukunoris was produced.

Introduction Human-induced global change has accelerated a biodiversity change worldwide (Wardle et al. 2011, Díaz and Malhi 2022). However, we know little about how global change affects soil microbes (Shangguan et al. 2023) and how it will affect many ecosystem functions on the land surface (i.e. the horizontal spatial dimension) (Jing et al. 2015, Wall et al. 2015, Delgado-Baquerizo et al. 2020, Berlinches de Gea et al. 2023).

INTRODUCTION The gut microbiota, referred to as the second genome of an organism, comprise trillions of microorganisms and plays a critical role in host functions such as food digestion, nutrient metabolism, energy acquisition, pathogen resistance, immune regulation, and brain development (Adak & Khan, 2019; Lee et al., 2022; de Vos et al., 2022). This complex microbial population involves bacteria, eukaryotes, archaea, viruses, and parasites (Adak & Khan, 2019).

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the differences in annual pasture and native pasture on dry matter (DM) intake, nutrient digestibility, nitrogen (N) and energy utilization, and methane (CH ) emission of grazing sheep, and to provide basis for rational livestock grazing in salinized regions. The study used 10 male Hu sheep ♀ × thin-tailed Han sheep ♂ rams (20±5 kg) aged 5 months. Sheep grazing was conducted in annual pasture and native pasture using a 2×2 Latin square design.

Both sequenced Gyrodactylus parasites were collected from Schizopygopsis pylzovi (Cyprinidae) caught in October 2021 in the Yellow River, Lanzhou, China (sampling and identification details in Additional file 2). Co-phylogenetic analyses were conducted on two species-for-species matching host and parasite datasets: (i) PHMITOS—the mitogenome dataset for nine parasites and nine hosts; (ii) P18SHMITO—18S rRNA + ITS for Gyrodactylus parasites (103 species) and mitogenomes of 100 host species.
