Differential Case Marking in Bodo
Get PDFBodo exhibits differential case marking for its subject and object arguments. In Bodo, subject marking is obligatory with inanimate subjects of stative verbs and animate subjects of dynamic verbs. Object marking, on the other hand, is obligatory with human and proper nouns. As for pronouns, the split is along the lines of person. The 3rd person subject gets obligatory marking, whereas in all other cases, subject and object marking on pronouns remains optional. Like in many other Tibeto-Burman languages, which exhibit optional case marking, the choices for subject and object marking depend on various semantic or pragmatic factors. One crucial factor in which the subject is case marked in Bodo include whether the subject involvement is conceived as an event or state, and the speaker’s knowledge of the subject involved in an event or state. Other crucial factors for object marking include the specificity of the object, the degree of affectedness of the object, and contrastive focus
Hepatic Transcriptome Profiling under Shear Stress in Sciaenops ocellatus
Get PDFWater flow is basic in the environment of fish. To date, most studies investigating the influence of water flow on fish behavior have focused on swimming speed and associated mechanisms, but few studies have addressed the molecular basis. This study used liver transcriptome profiling of Sciaenops ocellatus exposed to shear stress from the aquatic environment. De novo assembly yielded 70,148 genes with 12,465 unigenes > 1 kb. We identified 10,214 simple sequence repeat markers as well as 38,020 and 29,627 homozygous and 57,835 and 66,088 heterozygous single nucleotide polymorphisms in the experimental and control groups, respectively. After screening, there were 1773 differentially expressed genes, of which 204 were upregulated and 969 were downregulated. Gene Ontology analysis revealed 424 genes that were enriched in biological processes (90 in cellular component and 310 in molecular function). A total of 423 genes were annotated to a Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genome pathways (136 to metabolic pathways; 69 to environmental information processing; 67 to cellular process). There were four significantly enriched pathways, including glycine, serine, and threonine metabolism; tryptophan metabolism; retinol metabolism; and steroid biosynthesis. Some genes were known to be related to flow stress; those in the Hedgehog signaling pathway were upregulated, whereas others related to RNA degradation were downregulated. There was strong correlation between up- and downregulated genes identified by quantitative PCR and RNA sequencing. Thus, shear stress from aquatic environments greatly influences liver function in S. ocellatus. The results provide a reference that can be useful for selecting appropriate breeding sites for S. ocellatus aquaculture
