Genome assembly of the edible jelly fungus Dacryopinax spathularia (Dacrymycetaceae)
No full textThe edible jelly fungus Dacryopinax spathularia (Dacrymycetaceae) is wood-decaying and can be commonly found worldwide. It has found application in food additives, given its ability to synthesize long-chain glycolipids, among other uses. In this study, we present the genome assembly of D. spathularia using a combination of PacBio HiFi reads and Omni-C data. The genome size is 29.2 Mb. It has high sequence contiguity and completeness, with a scaffold N50 of 1.925 Mb and a 92.0% BUSCO score. A total of 11,510 protein-coding genes and 474.7 kb repeats (accounting for 1.62% of the genome) were predicted. The D. spathularia genome assembly generated in this study provides a valuable resource for understanding their ecology, such as their wood-decaying capability, their evolutionary relationships with other fungi, and their unique biology and applications in the food industry
Database of Photocharged Materials
No full textPhotocharging, also known as photodoping, is a phenomenon where electrons accumulate within a semiconductor material upon bandgap excitation. This process involves the quenching of photogenerated holes by reductants. In photocharged semiconductors, the negative charge is balanced by cations, with the most common being H+ ions. Since the 1980s, photocharging of semiconductors has been extensively studied from both fundamental and practical perspectives. For example, photocharged semiconductor serves as a source of electrons and protons for reducing organic compounds in the absence of light. This database summarizes experimental data collected over four decades of research on photocharged semiconductors. Key parameters used to characterize the photocharged semiconductors are i) the maximum specific concentration of electrons stored in 1 gram of semiconductor material, ii) the maximum average number of electrons stored per semiconductor particle, iii) the initial rate of photocharging, and iv) the initial rate of semiconductor discharging upon addition of the oxidant in the dark. In addition to these parameters, the database contains the conditions of photocharging process, such as type and concentration of electron donor, light intensity, solvent, etc. and semiconductors particles properties, such as type of semiconductor, particle diameter, specific surface area, etc
Operational expenditure of immigration detention centres in Hong Kong
No full textThe RGC-funded project 'Immigration Detention and Vulnerable Migrants in Hong Kong' ran from 2020 - 2023. The project used socio-legal and mixed methods, including collecting data from official platforms and via the Code on Access to Information.
Source / Credit: All data in this dataset is official data from the HKSAR Government.
As of 30 Aug 2023, ready-for-use Excel/CSV files of the uploaded datasets were not already available on data.gov.hk or Immigration Department platforms. Thus they have been cleaned and made available here. For updated information, please refer to official sources or file an access to information request via the Code of Access to Information.</p

No full textThis data archive consists of the data used to produce the manuscript in BMC Family Practice titled “Preference of blood pressure measurement methods by primary care doctors in Hong Kong: a cross-sectional survey”. This manuscript describes the blood pressure measurement methods commonly used by doctors in primary care in Hong Kong, to screen, diagnose, and manage hypertensive patients
Genome of the sea anemone Exaiptasia pallida and transcriptome profiles during tentacle regeneration
No full textCnidarians including sea anemones, corals, hydra, and jellyfishes are a group of animals well known for their regeneration capacity. However, how non-coding RNAs such as microRNAs (also known as miRNAs) contribute to cnidarian tissue regeneration is poorly understood. Here, we sequenced and assembled the genome of the sea anemone Exaiptasia pallida collected in Hong Kong waters. The assembled genome size of E. pallida is 229.21 Mb with a scaffold N50 of 10.58 Mb and BUSCO completeness of 91.1%, representing a significantly improved genome assembly of this species. The organization of ANTP-class homeobox genes in this anthozoan further supported the previous findings in jellyfishes, where most of these genes are mainly located on three scaffolds. Tentacles of E. pallida were excised, and both mRNA and miRNA were sequenced at 9 time points (0 h, 6 h, 12 h, 18 h, 1 day, 2, 3, 6, and 8 days) from regenerating tentacles. In addition to the Wnt signaling pathway and homeobox genes that are shown to be likely involved in tissue regeneration as in other cnidarians, we have shown that GLWamide neuropeptides, and for the first time sesquiterpenoid pathway genes could potentially be involved in the late phase of cnidarian tissue regeneration. The established sea anemone model will be useful for further investigation of biology and evolution in, and the effect of climate change on this important group of animals
