A NEW GENUS OF APLODONTID RODENT (MAMMALIA, RODENTIA) FROM THE LATE OLIGOCENE OF NORTHERN JUNGGAR BASIN, CHINA.

A new genus of aplodontid rodent (Mammalia, Rodentia) from the late Oligocene of northern Junggar Basin, China.

A new genus and species of aplodontid rodent, Proansomys dureensis, from the late Oligocene of the northern Junggar Basin of China is described.The new genus is referred to as Ansomyinae because the ectoloph on the upper cheek teeth, although not fully crested, has attained the same characteristic bucket-handle-shaped configuration as other members

The Spatio-Temporal Expression Profiles of Silkworm Pseudogenes Provide Valuable Insights into Their Biological Roles

Background: Pseudogenes are sequences that have lost the ability to transcribe RNA molecules or encode truncated but possibly functional proteins.While they were once considered to be meaningless remnants of evolution, recent researches have shown that pseudogenes play important roles in various biological processes.However, the studies of pseudoge
