Article Abstract
Predatory insects serve as important biological control agents in ecosystems by efficiently reducing pest populations. Orius strigicollis is a highly effective beneficial predator in cultivated fields in China. It is widely used as a biological control agent against many pests, including thrips, aphids, and spider mites. The lack of public availability of O. strigicollis genomes has limited our ability to thoroughly explore and research its evolution and gene function, particularly genes related to pesticide resistance. Here, we report a chromosome-scale assembly of the O. strigicollis genome by PacBio High fidelity (HiFi) long-reads, high-throughput chromosome conformation capture (Hi-C) and Illumina sequencing technologies. The final genome assembly was 167 Mb with a scaffold N50 size of 12.49 Mb, and 97.87% of the assembly was anchored to 12 chromosomes. Annotation identified 11,551 protein-coding genes. In this article, we reported a high-quality chromosome-scale assembly genome for the species of the genus Orius for the first time, which provide valuable resources for functional gene research and genetic transformation of natural enemy insects.

Two yeast strains, PYCC 10015 and PYCC 10016, were isolated from soil from an Irish forest. Sequence analysis of the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region (ITS1-5.8S-ITS2) of the rRNA gene repeat, and the D1/D2 domain of the LSU rRNA gene, showed that they belong to the and genera of the order , but they did not exactly match any known species.

Trichoderma species exhibit remarkable versatility in adaptability and in occupying habitats with lifestyles ranging from mycoparasitism and saprotrophy to endophytism. In this study, we present the first high-quality whole-genome assembly and annotation of T. lixii using Illumina HiSeq technology to explore the mechanisms of endophytic lifestyle and plant colonization.

The mechanisms governing mammalian proton pump V-ATPase function are of fundamental and medical interest. The assembly and disassembly of cytoplasmic V1 domain with the membrane-embedded V0 domain of V-ATPase is a key aspect of V-ATPase localization and function. Here, we show that the mammalian protein ATG16L1, primarily appreciated for its role in canonical autophagy and in noncanonical membrane atg8ylation processes, controls V-ATPase.

Nuclear mitochondrial DNA segments (NUMTs), which are mitochondrial DNA fragments integrated into the nuclear genome, serve as markers of evolutionary history. This study aims to enhance the detection and analysis of NUMTs by developing a script named NUMTsearcher. Utilizing the latest chromosome-level genome assemblies from various species, including human, rabbit, and six fish species, the study compares NUMTsearcher's performance against traditional methods such as LAST (Local Alignment Search Tool), BLAST (Basic Local Alignment Search Tool), BLAT (BLAST-Like Alignment Tool), and the pan-mitogenome approach, which integrates mitogenomes from diverse sources to identify fixed NUMTs in the nuclear genome.

Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus (KSHV) belongs to the Gammaherpesvirinae subfamily. During the lytic phase of herpesviruses, viral capsids form in the host cell nucleus, and the replicated viral genome is packaged into these capsids. The herpesviral genome is replicated as a precursor head-to-tail concatemer consisting of tandemly repeated genomic units, each flanked by terminal repeats (TRs).
