ABSTRACT: Habitat association predicts population connectivity and persistence in flightless beetles: a population genomics approach within a dynamic archipelago
Project description:We report the function of Flightless I involved in the overall nuclear export, and genome-wide translation of mRNAs in H1299 cells. By using high-throughput transcriptome and translatome sequencing combined with cell fractionation, we generated genome-wide transcriptome and translatome maps of lung carcinoma cells and normal cells. We find that flightless I protein could modulate the genome-wide translation and mRNA traffiking, suggesting that the post-transcriptional regulation of mRNA might be a major mechanism of action for Flightless I.
Project description:16S amplicon pool analyses of the four gut sections of the wood-feeding beetle, Odontotaenius disjunctus The beetle is purely wood feeding, and we aim to first characterize the community that exist within the gut sections 4 beetles, four gut sections per beetle, one PhyloChip per gut section, total = 16 chips
Project description:These RNA-seq samples represent ten different tissue types within a diverse Nested Association Mapping (NAM) maize population that has been sequenced by the NAM Consortium Group. These samples correspond to project IDs PRJEB31061.
Project description:This study examines gene expression differences between infected larvae from different maternal infection backgrounds to try to understand the immunological basis of invertebrate immune priming. Female Tribolium castaneum beetles were either jabbed with sterile saline, heat killed Bt, or left naïve. 15 Offspring from the first and second broods were infected with Bt and 24 hours later pooled by treatment and flash frozen Beetles from saline and primed maternal backgrounds are compared to naïve infected
