Engler is a common subalpine and alpine plant belonging to Saxifragaceae. However, the genetic diversity of this species has remained to be explored. In this study, we have assembled and characterized the complete chloroplast genome of , filling this knowledge gap and uncovering its genetic composition. The chloroplast genome is 147,267 bp long and contains 131 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 38 tRNA genes, and eight rRNA genes. Furthermore, we have performed a phylogenetic analysis of 19 representative species within . As a result, we have found that , together with and , forms a monophyletic group. These findings have implications for the conservation and utilization of .

Objective: This study analyzed data from the US population to examine how oral microbiome diversity and diet quality individually and synergistically affect frailty.
Methods: This study included 6,283 participants aged 20 years or older from the 2009-2010 and 2011-2012 NHANES cycles. A frailty index (FI) consisting of 36 items was developed, with items related to nutritional status excluded.

Fatty acid synthase (FAS) is one of the most important enzymes in lipid biosynthesis, which can catalyze the reaction of acetyl-CoA and malonyl-CoA to produce fatty acids. However, the structure, function, and molecular mechanism of FAS regulating lipid synthesis in the fungus Mucor circinelloides are unclear. In the present study, two encoding fas genes in the high lipid-producing strain WJ11 and low lipid-producing strain CBS277.

Sweet potato foot rot disease caused by Diaporthe destruens (formerly Plenodomus destruens) severely affects the yield and quality of sweet potatoes. To gain basic knowledge on regulating the pathogen using indigenous soil bacteria, the following organic materials were applied to potted soils collected from a sweet potato field contaminated with D. destruens: Kuroihitomi (compost made from shochu waste and chicken manure), Soil-fine (material made by adsorbing shochu waste on rice bran), and rice bran.

The olfactory system of insects plays a vital role in their survival by enabling them to detect chemical cues and adapt to changing environments. The rape stem weevil, Ceutorhynchus asper, is a significant pest posing a challenge for rapeseed production due to its destructive feeding habit and increasing resistance to insecticides. So far, there's still limited knowledge about structure and function of odorant binding proteins (OBPs) in beetles like C.

The four-and-a-half LIM domain protein 2 (FHL2) is a conserved transcriptional co-regulator critical for vertebrate development and metabolism, yet its roles in arthropods remain poorly understood. Here, we report the functional characterization of LmFHL2 in the migratory locust Locusta migratoria, a devastating pest reliant on precise molting cycles for growth and swarming. Phylogenetic and expression analyses revealed high conservation of LmFHL2 across insects, with predominant expression in integument and gut tissues.
