Abstract

To search the evidence of molecular evolution mechanism for aquatic and cave habitat inAndrias davidianus, the evolution analysis was carried out among several species transcriptome data. The transcriptome data ofNotophthalmus viridescens,Xenopus tropicalis, Cynops pyrrhogaster, Hynobius chinensisandA. davidianuswere obtained from the Genbank and reassembled exceptXenopus tropicalis. The BLAST search of transcriptome data obtained 1244 single-copy orthologous genes among five species.A phylogenetic tree showedA. davidianusto have the closest relationship toH. chinensis. Fourteen positively selected genes were detected inA. davidianusandN. vridescensgroup and fifteen inA. davidianusandH. chinensisgroup. Five genes were shared in the both groups which involved in the immune system, suggesting thatA. davidianusadaptation to an aquatic and cave environment required rapid evolution of the immune system compared toN. viridescensandH. chinensis.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 1. This is our high-level measure of the quality and quantity of online attention that it has received. This Attention Score, as well as the ranking and number of research outputs shown below, was calculated when the research output was last mentioned on 28 February 2018.
All research outputs
#20,663,600
of 25,382,440 outputs
Outputs from Hereditas
#398
of 513 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#268,981
of 344,345 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Hereditas
#3
of 3 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 25,382,440 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 10th percentile – i.e., 10% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 513 research outputs from this source. They receive a mean Attention Score of 4.0. This one is in the 13th percentile – i.e., 13% of its peers scored the same or lower than it.
Older research outputs will score higher simply because they've had more time to accumulate mentions. To account for age we can compare this Altmetric Attention Score to the 344,345 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 11th percentile – i.e., 11% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 3 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one.
