Summary: Implemented by: Henrietta Myburg and Marc JohnsonThis protocol is a modification of protocol 8. It was developed after protocol 8 and several commercially available plant RNA isolation kits failed to produce a sufficient yield and quality of RNA from Oenothera spp. (Onagraceae) for next-generation sequencing. Oenothera are rich in polysaccharides, oils, flavonoids and complex ellagitannins that likely interfere with isolation.We suspect that this protocol will be most useful for species and tissues with complex secondarychemistry and rich in oils (e.g. some Rosaceae and Pinaceae). The most important modifications to this protocol versus Protocol 8 is the use of less plant tissue, more extraction buffer, and repeating solvent extractions until the interphase is clean of debris. The protocol is regrettably longer and more involved than Protocol 8. We attempted to remove or reduce the replication of the solvent extractions steps without success (i.e. yield and quality are always decreased in Oenothera when any steps are removed).This protocol is part of a collection of eighteen protocols used to isolate total RNA from plant tissue.

Summary: Bone mass loss contributes to the risk of bone fracture in the elderly. Many factors including age, obesity, estrogen and diet, are associated with bone mass loss. Mice studies suggested that the gut microbiome might affect the bone mass by regulating the immune system, however there has been little evidence from human studies. Bone loss increases after menopause. Therefore, we have recruited 361 Chinese post-menopausal women to collect their fecal samples and metadata to conduct metagenome-wide association study (MWAS) to investigate the influence of the gut microbiome on bone health. Gut microbiome sequencing data were produced using BGISEQ500 sequencing, Bone mineral density (BMD) was calculated using Hologic dual energy X-ray machine, body mass index (BMI) and age were also recorded.This collected data allows exploration of the gut microbial diversity and their links to bone mass loss, as well as microbial markers for bone mineral density. In addition, these data are potentially useful in studying the role the gut microbiota might play in bone mass loss and in exploring the bone mass loss process.

Summary: Background: The spotted sea bass (Lateolabrax maculatus) is a valuable commercial fish that is widely cultured in China. While analyses using molecular markers and population genetics have been conducted, genomic resources are lacking.Finding: Here, we report a chromosome-scale assembly of the spotted sea bass genome by high-depth genome sequencing, assembly and annotation. The genome scale was 0.62 Gb with contig and scaffold N50 length to be 31 Kb and 1,040 Kb, respectively. Hi-C scaffolding of the genome resulted in 24 pseudochromosomes containing 77.68% of the total assembled sequences. A total of 132.38Mb repeat sequences were detected, accounting for 20.73% of the assemble genome. 22,015 protein-coding genes were predicted, of which 96.52% were homologous to proteins in various databases. In addition, we constructed a phylogenetic tree using 1,586 single-copy gene families and identified 125 unique gene families in the spotted sea bass genome.Conclusions: We assembled a spotted sea bass genome, which will be a valuable genomic resource to understand the biology of the spotted sea bass, and will also lead to the development of molecular breeding techniques to generate spotted sea bass with better economical traits.

Summary: As one of the most recognizable characteristics in birds, plumage colour has a high impact on understanding the evolution and mechanisms of colouration. Feather and skin are ideal tissues to explore the genomics and complexity of colour patterns in vertebrates. Two species of the genus Chrysolophus, golden pheasant (Chrysolophus pictus) and Lady Amherst’s pheasant (Chrysolophus amherstiae), exhibit brilliant colours in their plumage, but with extreme phenotypic differences, making these two species great models to investigate plumage colouration mechanisms in birds. Here we provide details of the protocols used for plumage pigments identification by High-performance liquid chromatography. The fat-soluble pigments (carotenoids) and oxidation products of melanins (TTCA and PTCA) can be qualitatively and quantificationally analyzed by HPLC with the corresponding standards, respectively.

Summary: The humpback puffer,Tetraodon palembangensis, also known as Pao palembangensis, is a species of poisonous freshwater pufferfish mainly distributed in Southeast Asia (Thailand, Laos, Malaysia and Indonesia). Despite interesting biological features, such as its very inactive nature, tetrodotoxin production and body expansion mechanisms, molecular research on the humpback puffer is still rare because of the lack of a high-quality reference genome. Here, we reported a first chromosome-level genome assembly of an adult humpback puffer, of which the genome size is 362 Mb with ~1.78 Mb contig N50 and ~15.8 Mb scaffold N50s. Based on the genome, ~61.5Mb (18.11%) repeat sequences were also identified, and totally 19,925 genes were annotated, 99.20% of which could be predicted with function using protein-coding function databases. Finally, a phylogenetic tree was constructed with single-copy gene families from ten teleost fishes. The humpback puffer genome will be a valuable genomic resource to illustrate possible mechanisms of tetrodotoxin synthesis and tolerance, providing clues for future detailed studies of biological toxins.
