TL;DR: Positively selected and rapidly evolving genes in the yak lineage are found to be significantly enriched in functional categories and pathways related to hypoxia and nutrition metabolism, which may have important implications for understanding adaptation to high altitude in other animal species and for Hypoxia-related diseases in humans.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The genome provides a global insight into the molecular architecture and host interaction of this complex metazoan pathogen, revealing that it can exploit host nutrients, neuroendocrine hormones and signalling pathways for growth, development and maturation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evolutionary diversifications of plants on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau.
TL;DR: The Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) is the highest and one of the most extensive plateaus in the world and many lineages of gymnosperms have been found to evolve rapidly as discussed by the authors.
Journal ArticleDOI
dbDEMC: a database of differentially expressed miRNAs in human cancers.
Zhen Yang,Zhen Yang,Zhen Yang,Fei Ren,Changning Liu,Shunmin He,Gang Sun,Qian Gao,Lei Yao,Yangde Zhang,Ruoyu Miao,Ying Cao,Yi Zhao,Yang Zhong,Haitao Zhao +14 more
TL;DR: This database is expected to be a valuable source for identification of cancer-related miRNAs, thereby helping with the improvement of classification, diagnosis and treatment of human cancers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resolution of Brassicaceae Phylogeny Using Nuclear Genes Uncovers Nested Radiations and Supports Convergent Morphological Evolution
Chien Hsun Huang,Renran Sun,Yi Hu,Liping Zeng,Ning Zhang,Liming Cai,Qiang Zhang,Marcus A. Koch,Ihsan A. Al-Shehbaz,Patrick P. Edger,J. Chris Pires,Dun Yan Tan,Yang Zhong,Hong Ma +13 more
TL;DR: Reconstruction of ancestral morphological states during the Brassicaceae evolution indicates prevalent parallel (convergent) evolution of several traits over deep times across the entire family.
