Project description:Crab is one of the major source for V. parahaemolyticus outbreak among aquatic products in Northeast Asian due to improperly cooking and wound infection by mishandling. However, there is no report on whole genome sequence of V. parahaemolyticus isolated from contaminated crab, thus no information is available for major virulence factors about V. parahaemolyticus obtained from crab. Therefore, the analysis of transcriptome of isolated V. parahaemolyticus from crab products are necessary to investigate potential risk of foodborne illness by contaminated products.
Project description:Background The Lycophyta species are the extant taxa most similar to early vascular plants that were once abundant on Earth. However, their distribution has greatly diminished. So far, the absence of chromosome level assembled lycophyte genomes, has hindered our understanding of evolution and environmental adaption of lycophytes. Findings We present the reference genome of the tetraploid aquatic quillwort, Isoetes sinensis, a lycophyte. This genome represents the first chromosome-level assembled genome of a tetraploid seed-free plant. Comparison of genomes between I. sinensis and the diploid I. taiwanensis revealed of genomic features and polyploid of lycophytes. Comparison of the I. sinensis genome with those of other species representing the evolutionary lineages of green plants revealed the inherited genetic tools for transcriptional regulation and most phytohormones in I. sinensis. The presence and absence of key genes related to development and stress responses provides insights into environmental adaption of lycophytes. Conclusions The high-quality reference genome and genomic analysis presented in this study are crucial for future genetic research and the conservation of not only I. sinensis but also other lycophytes.
