Project description:We constructed three small RNA libraries from embryos at 5, 6 and 7 post-oviposition (hpo) of Bactrocera dorsalis for deep sequencing. The data analysis revealed 147 known and 103 novel miRNAs from these libraries.
Project description:The gut microbiota is considered the host's "second genome" and is closely associated with the host's physiology. We found that the elimination of gut bacteria suppressed ovarian development in Bactrocera dorsalis. Proteomic analysis revealed significant differences in ovarian protein expression after gut bacteria depletion, with differentially expressed proteins enriched in the proteasome and ubiquitin-related pathway. Moreover, ubiquitination levels were significantly reduced in gut bacteria-depleted females, while Enterobacter hormaechei (EH) supplementation rescued ubiquitination levels. Our findings suggest that ubiquitination serves as a mediator through which gut bacteria regulate ovarian development. By ubiquitin-modified proteomic analysis following gut microbiota manipulation and EH supplementation, we aimed to identify ubiquitination targets critical for ovarian development.

Project description:Four developmental stage small RNA libraries including Eggs, Larvae, Pupae and Adults were constructed, where a lot of known miRNAs were identified and many novel miRNAs were predicted. Comparison of their expression profiles in the four libraries suggested that Bactrocera dorsalis miRNAs are dynamically regulated throughout the life cycle.Further analysis of the expression and function of these miRNAs could increase our understanding of regulatory networks in the insect and lead to novel approaches to its control.
