The \u3cem\u3eChlamydomonas\u3c/em\u3e Genome Reveals the Evolution of Key Animal and Plant Functions

Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a unicellular green alga whose lineage diverged from land plants over 1 billion years ago. It is a model system for studying chloroplast-based photosynthesis, as well as the structure, assembly, and function of eukaryotic flagella (cilia), which were inherited from the common ancestor of plants and animals, but lost in land plants. We sequenced the ∼120-megabase nuclear genome of Chlamydomonas and performed comparative phylogenomic analyses, identifying genes encoding uncharacterized proteins that are likely associated with the function and biogenesis of chloroplasts or eukaryotic flagella. Analyses of the Chlamydomonas genome advance our understanding of the ancestral eukaryotic cell, reveal previously unknown genes associated with photosynthetic and flagellar functions, and establish links between ciliopathy and the composition and function of flagella

The Asian arowana (<i>Scleropages formosus</i>) genome provides new insights into the evolution of an early lineage of teleosts

The Asian arowana (Scleropages formosus), one of the world’s most expensive cultivated ornamental fishes, is an endangered species. It represents an ancient lineage of teleosts: the Osteoglossomorpha. Here, we provide a high-quality chromosome-level reference genome of a female golden-variety arowana using a combination of deep shotgun sequencing and high-resolution linkage mapping. In addition, we have also generated two draft genome assemblies for the red and green varieties. Phylogenomic analysis supports a sister group relationship between Osteoglossomorpha (bonytongues) and Elopomorpha (eels and relatives), with the two clades together forming a sister group of Clupeocephala which includes all the remaining teleosts. The arowana genome retains the full complement of eight Hox clusters unlike the African butterfly fish (Pantodon buchholzi), another bonytongue fish, which possess only five Hox clusters. Differential gene expression among three varieties provides insights into the genetic basis of colour variation. A potential heterogametic sex chromosome is identified in the female arowana karyotype, suggesting that the sex is determined by a ZW/ZZ sex chromosomal system. The high-quality reference genome of the golden arowana and the draft assemblies of the red and green varieties are valuable resources for understanding the biology, adaptation and behaviour of Asian arowanas

Distributed Control of Multiple Supercapacitors via Static Feedback

During recent years, many important distributed control approaches have been proposed to realize the stabilization of networked system including static feedback, which has been proven to be an efficient control strategy. Based on its traditional design method, for first- and second-order networked dynamical systems, we propose another kind of nonlinear consensus controllers where the input of each agent can be written as a product of a nonlinear gain and a sum of nonlinear interaction functions so that all states will reach consensus at a value preset. By using integral Lyapunov functions, we can prove the stability of proposed control protocols. We also choose supercapacitors as simulation models to realize voltage equalization under our distributed control protocols

Research on Intelligentization of Cloud Computing Programs Based on Self-awareness

Through the research of MapReduce programming framework of cloud computing, the current MapReduce program only solves specific problems, and there is no design experience or design feature summary of MapReduce program, let alone formal description and experience inheritance and application of knowledge base. In order to solve the problem of intelligent cloud computing program, a general MapReduce program generation method is designed. This paper proposes the architecture of intelligent cloud computing by studying AORBCO model and combining cloud computing technology. According to the behavior control mechanism in AORBCO model, a program generation method of MapReduce in intelligent cloud computing is proposed. This method will extract entity information in input data set and entity information in knowledge base in intelligent cloud computing for similarity calculation, and extract the entity in the top order as key key-value pair information in intelligent cloud computing judgment data set. The data processing types are divided, and then aligned with each specific MapReduce capability, and the MapReduce program generation experiment is verified in the AORBCO model development platform. The experiment shows that the complexity of big data MapReduce program code is simplified, and the generated code execution efficiency is good
