The Middle and Late Jurassic Yanliao Biota is different from other contemporaneous fossil assemblages in that it lacks neornithischian dinosaurs. Here, we report a new, early-diverging neornithischian, Pulaosaurus qinglong gen. et sp. nov., from the Upper Jurassic Tiaojishan Formation of Qinglong, H...

Midgut juice plays an important role in food digestion and detoxification in insects. In order to understand the potential of midgut juice of Cnaphalocrocis medinalis (Guenée) to degrade Bt proteins, the enzymatic activity of midgut juice and its degradation of Bt proteins (Cry2A, Cry1C, Cry1Aa, and...

Midgut extracts play crucial roles in food digestion and detoxification. We evaluated the effect of pH on the profiles of the midgut extracts in rice leaffolder, Cnaphalocrocis medinalis and the degradation of activated Bt-toxins by the midgut extracts under different pH conditions. Total protease a...

This study is first to investigate proteomic changes in sheep sperm induced by carbon ion radiation using two-dimensional electrophoresis (2-DE) analysis in the project of breeding a new variety of sheep. Differential expression proteins were detected using the PDQuest 8.0 software after staining wi...

Monilinia fructicola has been widely reported as the causal agent of brown rot disease on many Rosaceae family fruits worldwide. It has been reported on stone fruits, e.g., peach, plum, cherry, apricot and mume; as well as pome fruits, e.g., apple, pear and hawthorn. Loquat is a member of the Eriobo...

In this paper, for the first time, a novel multi-level constellation compression modulation (MCCM) is proposed and applied for generalized frequency division multiplexing passive optical network (GFDM-PON). The principle of the proposed MCCM is to transfer the constellation points of the outer circl...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are small, single stranded, non-coding RNA molecules, about 19–25 nucleotides in length, which regulate the development and functions of reproductive system of mammal. To discover novel miRNAs and identify the differential expression of them in ovine ovary and testis tissues, the...

Combined with elastic network model (ENM), the perturbation response scanning (PRS) has emerged as a robust technique for pinpointing allosteric interactions within proteins. Here, we proposed the PRS analysis of drug-target networks (DTNs), which could provide a promising avenue in network medicine...
