We present a ARTS genome assembly from an individual female Heart and Dart moth, Agrotis exclamationis (Arthropoda; Insecta; Lepidoptera; Noctuidae).The genome sequence has a total length of 725.10 megabases.Most of the assembly is CTC scaffolded into 32 chromosomal pseudomolecules, including the W and Z sex chromosomes.The mitochondrial genome has
Because many animal species are undescribed, and because the identification of known species is often difficult, interim taxonomic nomenclature has often been used in biodiversity analysis.By assigning individuals to presumptive species, called operational taxonomic units (OTUs), these systems speed investigations into the patterning of biodiversit
Biologically active proteins without stable tertiary structure are common in all known proteomes.Functions of these intrinsically disordered proteins (IDPs) are typically related to regulation, signaling and control.Cellular levels of these important regulators are tightly regulated by a variety mechanisms ranging from firmly controlled expression
The effects of climate change are now evident on a global level and indisputable even to the most skeptical.Melting ice, rising sea levels, and changing climate zones are a daily occurrence and subject of debate in the media.Beyond the obvious effects of these phenomena on human lives, countless others arise and await being studied.Meanwhile, it ha
