- The sustainable development of shrimp aquaculture is significantly compromised by Vibrio parahaemolyticus infections. Identifying host resistance genes and characterizing their immunological roles are essential for developing effective disease control strategies. In this study, we conducted a comparative transcriptomic analysis of intestinal tissues from Penaeus vannamei exhibiting varying degrees of pathological damage post-V. parahaemolyticus challenge to identify key resistance genes. KEGG enrichment analysis revealed that the ABC transporter pathway was markedly enriched among upregulated genes in both the 9 h vs 0 h and 48 h vs 0 h comparison groups. Based on the expression profiles and domain characteristics of genes within this pathway, the full transporter PvABCA3, half transporter PvABCC1, and soluble protein PvABCF2 were selected for RNAi assays. The result indicated that silencing PvABCF2, but not PvABCA3 and PvABCC1, significantly increased mortality, tissue damage, and Vibrio load in V. parahaemolyticus-challenged shrimp. Further investigation revealed that PvABCF2 silencing substantially suppressed the expression of antimicrobial peptides (AMPs), components of the proPO-activating system, and key genes involved in the JAK-STAT and NF-κB signaling pathways. These findings suggested that the increased susceptibility of shrimp to V. parahaemolyticus following PvABCF2 silencing may be associated with downregulation of these specific immune-related genes. Moreover, one SNP within PvABCF2 was found to be markedly associated with resistance to V. parahaemolyticus via SNP association analysis. Collectively, these results suggested that PvABCF2 was involved in defense response against V. parahaemolyticus and identified a potential molecular marker for disease-resistant breeding. - Source: PubMed

Luo Shuang-ShuangShi Lin-LinLiu Qing-YunChen Xiu-LiWang Ai-JinZhang Yi-QianYang Chun-LingHong-Liu Zhao Yong-ZhenWang Huan-Ling - Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) is a widely farmed freshwater fish. Feeding with faba bean (Vicia faba L.) for 90-120 days can improve the muscle quality of tilapia. However, the underlying mechanism remain unclear. In the present study, tilapia were fed a faba bean-based diet for 120 days to induce muscle crisped, and ordinary tilapia fed a conventional diet were used as controls. Muscle histological characteristics were evaluated using hematoxylin and eosin staining, and transcriptome sequencing was conducted to explore molecular changes associated with the crisped muscle phenotype. The results showed that, as compared to ordinary tilapia, the fiber diameter and area were significantly reduced in crisped tilapia (p < 0.05), while the muscle fiber density was significantly increased (p < 0.05). In total, 576 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified (FDR < 0.05), of which 211 were significantly up-regulated and 365 significantly down-regulated. Further analysis showed that DEGs associated with myofibroblast proliferation were up-regulated in crisped tilapia, while the glycolytic pathway was inhibited. The expression levels of muscle-related genes (i.e., actc1, myo7a, cib2, abcf2, and pfkfb2) were significantly higher in crisped tilapia than ordinary tilapia (p < 0.05), whereas the expression levels of gapdh, pgam2, eno3, and g6pi were significantly decreased (p < 0.05). Several DEGs and signaling pathways were identified. These findings provide transcriptomic evidence linking dietary faba bean feeding to muscle fiber remodeling and metabolic modulation in tilapia, offering a molecular basis for improving fillet quality through nutritional strategies. - Source: PubMed

As documented, there is a well-established correlation between the genes involved in ATP metabolism, neuropathy, and IC. ATP-binding cassette (ABC) transporters genes, in fact, are vital for ATP signaling. This study aims to associate the gene with a suspected pudendal nerve neuropathy and IC. - Source: PubMed

The cotton bollworm Helicoverpa armigera is a globally distributed crop pest affecting over 300 crop species. H. armigera has rapidly evolved insecticide resistance, making it one of the most damaging pests worldwide. Understanding the genetic basis of insecticide resistance provides insights to develop tools, such as molecular markers, that can be used to slow or prevent the evolution of resistance. We explore the genetic architecture of H. armigera resistance to a widely used insecticide, flubendiamide, using two complementary approaches: genome-wide association studies (GWAS) in wild-caught samples and quantitative trait locus (QTL) mapping in a controlled cross of susceptible and resistant laboratory strains. Both approaches identified one locus on chromosome 2, revealing two SNPs within 976 bp that can be used to monitor field resistance to flubendiamide. This was the only region identified using linkage mapping, though GWAS revealed additional sites associated with resistance. Other loci identified by GWAS in field populations contained known insecticide detoxification genes from the ATP-binding cassette family, ABCA1, ABCA3, ABCF2 and MDR1. Our findings revealed an oligogenic genetic architecture, contrasting previous reports of monogenic resistance associated with the ryanodine receptor. This work elucidates the genetic basis of rapidly evolving insecticide resistance and will contribute to developing effective insecticide resistance management strategies. - Source: PubMed
