Infection by Enterocytozoon hepatopenaei (EHP) leads to stunted or arrested growth in shrimp, causing significant economic losses in shrimp aquaculture. In this study, the spore wall protein EhSW12 was expressed using a prokaryotic expression system. Subsequently, phage display technology was employed to screen for peptides that interact with EhSW12. A rapid detection method was developed that bypasses the laborious procedure...

The rapid climatic fluctuations and geographical factors during the Quaternary glacial period, particularly in the Pleistocene epoch, play a pivotal role in shaping intraspecific genetic diversity. We conducted an investigation into the genetic structure and speciation mechanisms of a small mammal species, Asiatic Short‐Tailed Shrew ( Blarinella quadraticauda ), which is mainly distributed in the mountains surrounding the Sich...

The purpose of this study is to improve prehistoric knowledge of paleo‐typhoon and winter monsoon activity in the western North Pacific after 8 cal. ka BP. We examine two sediment cores derived from lakes located to the south and north of the Ilan Plain in northeastern Taiwan. Seasonal and typhoon rainfall data over the past several decades are collected for this study region. We also use mineral indicators, K/Rb ratios and gr...
