Project description:Spanish fir (Abies pinsapo) is a relict tree that is found in southern Spain mountains. In natural conditions two phenotypes can be observed, trees with blue needles and trees with green needles. The aim of the present work is to elucidate at transcriptomic levels the possible causes of the differences between these phenotypes.
Project description:This study is to decipher the effect of SUN overexpressed NIL on gene expression during fruit development in tomato. RNA libraries were sequenced through Illumina Nextseq500 at Georgia Genomics and Bioinformatics Core (GGBC) of University of Georgia for 75 bp single end sequencing. Clean reads were mapped to ITAG3.2. Processed data are normalized into TPM.
Project description:Spotted hyena (Crocuta crocuta) is the only extant species of the genus Crocuta, which once occupied a much wider range during the Pliocene and Pleistocene. However, its origin and evolutionary history is somewhat contentious due to discordances being found between morphological, nuclear, and mitochondrial data. Due to the limited molecular data from east Asian Crocuta, and the difficulty of extracting ancient DNA from this area, here we present proteomic analysis of cave hyenas from three locations in northern China. This marks the first proteomic data generated from cave hyenas, adding new molecular data to the east Asian populations. Phylogenetic analysis based on these protein sequences reveals two different groups of cave hyenas in east Asia, one of which could not be distinguished from modern spotted hyenas from northern Africa, tentatively the result of previously suggested gene flow between these lineages. With developments of instrumentation and analytical methods, proteomics holds promising potential for the phylogenetic reconstruction of ancient fauna previously thought to be unreachable using ancient DNA.
