Project description:In this article, the complete 16,439 bp mitochondrial genome of Thamnaconus septentrionalis was determined from a specimen collected in China. It contains 13 protein-coding genes, 22 transfer RNA genes, 1 D-loop region, 2 rRNA genes, the base composition of A 27.74%, G 17.09%, T 26.04%, and C 29.13%, resulting in a G + C content of 46.22%. Phylogenetic analysis showed that Thamnaconus septentrionalis was the nearest sister to Thamnaconus modestus. These presented data will be significant for evolution relationships study among fish species.
Project description:We used high-throughput sequencing to identify conserved and nonconserved miRNAs and other short RNAs in Typha angustifolia under control and cadmium stressed condition. A total of 114 conserved miRNAs and 41 novel candidate miRNAs encoded by 66 hairpin precursors were identified in both small RNA libraries. 4 conserved and 6 novel miRNAs showed specific expression, which, combined with function of target genes, suggests that miRNAs may play a role in plant Cd stress response.These results provide a framework for further analysis of miRNAs and their role in regulating Typha angustifolia response to cadmium stress.
