AbstractSacred lotus (Nelumbo nucifera, or lotus) is one of the most widely grown aquatic plant species with important uses, such as in water gardening and in vegetable and herbal medicine. A public genomic database of lotus would facilitate studies of lotus and other aquatic plant species. Here, we constructed an integrative database: the Nelumbo Genome Database (NGD, http://nelumbo.biocloud.net). This database is a collection of the most updated lotus genome assembly and contains information on both gene expression in different tissues and coexpression networks. In the NGD, we also integrated genetic variants and key traits from our 62 newly sequenced lotus cultivars and 26 previously reported cultivars, which are valuable for lotus germplasm studies. As applications including BLAST, BLAT, Primer, Annotation Search, Variant and Trait Search are deployed, users can perform sequence analyses and gene searches via the NGD. Overall, the valuable genomic resources provided in the NGD will facilitate future studies on population genetics and molecular breeding of lotus.

Abstract The Bovine Genome Database (BGD) (http://bovinegenome.org) has been the key community bovine genomics database for more than a decade. To accommodate the increasing amount and complexity of bovine genomics data, BGD continues to advance its practices in data acquisition, curation, integration and efficient data retrieval. BGD provides tools for genome browsing (JBrowse), genome annotation (Apollo), data mining (BovineMine) and sequence database searching (BLAST). To augment the BGD genome annotation capabilities, we have developed a new Apollo plug-in, called the Locus-Specific Alternate Assembly (LSAA) tool, which enables users to identify and report potential genome assembly errors and structural variants. BGD now hosts both the newest bovine reference genome assembly, ARS-UCD1.2, as well as the previous reference genome, UMD3.1.1, with cross-genome navigation and queries supported in JBrowse and BovineMine, respectively. Other notable enhancements to BovineMine include the incorporation of genomes and gene annotation datasets for non-bovine ruminant species (goat and sheep), support for multiple assemblies per organism in the Regions Search tool, integration of additional ontologies and development of many new template queries. To better serve the research community, we continue to focus on improving existing tools, developing new tools, adding new datasets and encouraging researchers to use these resources.

AbstractLimited knowledge on genomic diversity and the functional genes associated with soybean variety traits has resulted in slow breeding progress. We sequenced the genome of 250 soybean landraces and cultivars from China, America and Europe, and investigated their population structure, genetic diversity and architecture and selective sweep regions of accessions. We identified five novel agronomically important genes and studied the effects of functional mutations in respective genes. We found candidate genes GSTT1, GL3 and GSTL3 associated with isoflavone content, CKX3 associated with yield traits, and CYP85A2 associated with both architecture and yield traits. Our phenotype-gene network analysis revealed that hub nodes play a role in complex phenotypic associations. In this work, we describe novel agronomic trait associated genes and a complex genetic network, providing a valuable resource for future soybean molecular breeding.

AbstractNitrification was long thought to consist in the stepwise oxidation of ammonia to nitrite and of nitrite to nitrate by ammonia oxidizing and nitrite oxidizing microorganisms, respectively. Recently, single microorganisms capable of complete ammonia to nitrate oxidation (comammox) were identified in theNitrospiragenus. This genus, previously considered to only contain canonical nitrite oxidizers is diverse and has a broad environmental distribution. Yet, a global insight into the abundance, niche preference, and genomic diversity ofNitrospirais missing. Here, we established the largestNitrospiragenome database to date, revealing 68 putative species, most without cultivated representatives. We performed a global survey through read recruitment of metagenomic data from various environments against this database that identified that environmental filtering structures species distribution, without large scale biogeographical signal. The ecological success of comammoxNitrospirais evident as they outnumber and are more diverse than canonicalNitrospirain communities from all environments but wastewater treatment plants. We detect a phylogenetic signal inNitrospiraspecies habitat preference, that is strongest for canonicalNitrospiraspecies. ComammoxNitrospiraeco-evolutionary history is more complex with subclades achieving rapid niche divergence via horizontal transfer of genes, including that encoding the hydroxylamine oxidoreductase, one of the key enzymes involved in nitrification.
