Project description:The high biodiversity and strong population structure of freshwater fauna has often been attributed to historical geological and climatic alterations. The impact of these historical changes on obligate freshwater species on a small geographical scale has not been well understood due to the lack of fine-scale comparative phylogeographic studies. Strong population structure has been reported in a goby and a caridean shrimp in Hong Kong, a small but highly developed city in South China, but the common drivers of population differentiation in freshwater fauna in this region remain unclear. This study examined the fine-scale phylogeographic patterns of two freshwater loaches, Schistura fasciolata and Pseudogastromyzon myersi in Hong Kong, using sequence data of mitochondrial control region and two nuclear markers (interphotoreceptor retinoid binding protein gene 2 and ribosomal protein S13 gene). Results show that they exhibit pronounced population structure as supported by high and significant ΦST. Phylogenetic analyses based on the control region reveal six and three distinct lineages in S. fasciolata and P. myersi, respectively. Phylogeographic structure of both species generally follows the paleodrainage pattern, though P. myersi shows a shallower structure on the Mainland, perhaps due to their higher mobility. Most of these lineages diverged during the Pliocene and Late Pleistocene, a period with marked sea-level fluctuations. In a broader context, this suggests that sea-level fluctuation played an important role in shaping even the fine-scale population structure of freshwater fish in South China, implying that the genetic diversity of this fauna may be higher than expected.

Quantitative profiling of differentially expressed miRNAs in siCTL- and siOASL-transfected HUVECs

Project description:Purpose: The goal of this study is to compare endothelial small RNA transcriptome to identify the target of OASL under basal or stimulated conditions by utilizing miRNA-seq. Methods: Endothelial miRNA profilies of siCTL or siOASL transfected HUVECs were generated by illumina sequencing method, in duplicate. After sequencing, the raw sequence reads are filtered based on quality. The adapter sequences are also trimmed off the raw sequence reads. rRNA removed reads are sequentially aligned to reference genome (GRCh38) and miRNA prediction is performed by miRDeep2. Results: We identified known miRNA in species (miRDeep2) in the HUVECs transfected with siCTL or siOASL. The expression profile of mature miRNA is used to analyze differentially expressed miRNA(DE miRNA). Conclusions: Our study represents the first analysis of endothelial miRNA profiles affected by OASL knockdown with biologic replicates.

Sequencing of siRNA from soybean containing silencing vectors and empty vectors

Project description:A cDNA library was constructed by Novogene (CA, USA) using a Small RNA Sample Pre Kit, and Illumina sequencing was conducted according to company workflow, using 20 million reads. Raw data were filtered for quality as determined by reads with a quality score > 5, reads containing N < 10%, no 5' primer contaminants, and reads with a 3' primer and insert tag. The 3' primer sequence was trimmed and reads with a poly A/T/G/C were removed
