DATA FROM: CRYPTIC SPECIATION YIELDS REMARKABLE MIMICS: A NEW GENUS OF SEA SLUGS THAT MASQUERADE AS TOXIC ALGAE (CAULERPA SPP.)
DESCRIPTION : "Cryptic" can refer to species that match their background through camouflage or disruptive coloration, or in taxonomy to externally similar but unrecognized congeners. In adaptive resemblance, organisms resemble parts of a larger host animal or plant on which the mimic is highly cryptic. Mimetic lineages that radiate onto superficially similar hosts may contain cryptic species in both senses: taxa that are difficult to detect, and challenging for taxonomists to distinguish. Here, we describe a new genus and four species of herbivorous sea slugs (Gastropoda, Heterobranchia, Sacoglossa), including remarkable mimics of toxic green algae (Caulerpa spp.) on which the slugs feed. The long-recognized Stiliger smaragdinus Baba 1949 is highly mimetic of 'sea grapes' (C. racemosa-lentilifera), but phylogenetic analyses of four genes indicated Stiliger was polyphyletic: the name-bearing species grouped within Placida, whereas Caulerpa-mimetic lineages were phylogenetically distinct. We erect the genus Sacoproteus gen. n. for S. smaragdinus (Baba 1949), and describe four new species: S. nishae sp. n. from the Indo-Pacific, which mimics C. chemnitzia; S. yhiae sp. n. and S. browni sp. n. from southern Australia, which mimic C. cactoides and C. gemminata; and S. thomasleei sp. n., a non-mimetic west Pacific species that shared key features. Stiliger s.s. and Placida species show crypsis and aposematism but not host mimicry, although Stiliger spp. feeding on undefended algae may be Batesian mimics. Investigating the ecology and biogeography of Sacoproteus gen. n. will yield insight into how selection generates such extraordinary examples of adaptive resemblance in the marine realm.

DATA FROM: PHYSICAL PROPERTIES AND BONDING QUALITY OF LAMINATED VENEER LUMBER PRODUCED WITH VENEERS PEELED FROM SMALL-DIAMETER RUBBERWOOD LOG
DESCRIPTION : The peeling of small diameter rubber logs from the current short-rotation practices, undoubtedly will produced lower-grade veneers compared to the veneers from the conventional planting rotation. Hence, this raises the question of the properties of the produced laminated veneer lumber (LVL) from veneers peeled from small diameter rubber logs using spindleless lathe technology. Different thickness of rubberwood veneers were peeled from rubber logs with diameter less than 20 cm using spindleless lathe. Three layer LVLs were prepared using phenol formaldehyde (PF) adhesive and hot pressed at different temperature. During the peeling of veneer, lathe checks as deep as 30 to 60% of the veneer thickness are formed. This study showed that deep lathe check of 3 mm rubberwood veneer significantly reduced the gluebond shear strength of PF bonded LVL. In addition, lathe checks frequency were also shown to influence bond strengths. The presence of higher lathe check frequency on 2 mm veneer increased the wettability, thus, facilitated optimum penetration of adhesive for stronger bonding. These findings stress the importance of measuring and considering the lathe check depth and frequency during lamination process to get a better understanding of bonding quality in veneer-based products.

ASSOCIATION OF SOIL FUNGAL COMMUNITY COMPOSITION WITH INCIDENCE OF FUSARIUM WILT OF BANANA IN MALAYSIA
DESCRIPTION : Banana (Musa spp.), an important food crop in many parts of the world, is threatened by a deadly wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense Tropical Race 4 (TR4). Increasing evidence indicates that plant actively recruits beneficial microbes in the rhizosphere to suppress soil-borne pathogens. Hence, studies on the composition and diversity of the root-associated microbial communities are important for banana health. Research on beneficial microbial communities has focused on bacteria, although fungi can also influence soil-borne disease. Here, high-throughput sequencing targeting the fungal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) was employed to systematically characterize the difference in the soil fungal community associated with Fusarium wilt (FW) of banana. The community structure of fungi in the healthy and TR4-infected rhizospheres was significantly different compared with that of bulk soil within the same farm. The rhizosphere soils of infected plants exhibited higher richness and diversity compared with healthy plants, with significant abundance of Fusarium genus at 14%. In the healthy rhizosphere soil, Penicillium spp. were more abundant at 7% and positively correlated with magnesium. This study produced a detailed description of fungal community structure in healthy and TR4-infected banana soils in Malaysia and identified candidate biomarker taxa that may be associated with FW disease promotion and suppression. The findings also expand the global inventory of fungal communities associated with the components of asymptomatic and symptomatic banana plants infected by TR4.

GENETIC STRUCTURES ACROSS A BIOGEOGRAPHICAL BARRIER REFLECT DISPERSAL POTENTIAL OF FOUR SOUTHEAST ASIAN MANGROVE PLANT SPECIES
DESCRIPTION : Aim Biogeographic barriers restrict the movement of individuals, resulting in population divergence, genetic differentiation, endemism and speciation. Yet, some barriers demonstrate unequal effect across species depending on species dispersal, which manifests in varying genetic structure. We test the hypotheses that the genetic structure of four coastal mangrove species would reflect differences in dispersal potential across the Malay Peninsula, a major biogeographic barrier in the Indo-West Pacific region. Location Twelve sites from the east and west coasts of the Malay Peninsula. Taxon Mangrove trees Avicennia alba, Sonneratia alba, Bruguiera gymnorhiza, and Rhizhophora mucronata. Methods For each species, we characterized genetic structure and gene flow using seven to 12 species-specific nuclear microsatellite markers. We tested for east-west genetic differentiation across the peninsula, a stepping-stone migration pattern, and assessed the proportion of recent dispersal and direction of historical migration along the Malacca Strait. Results Significant east-west genetic differentiation across the peninsula was observed in A. alba, S. alba and B. gymnorhiza, and the effect was most pronounced for the two species with lower dispersal potential (A. alba, S. alba). In contrast, the two species with higher dispersal potential (B. gymnorhiza and R. mucronata) exhibited much higher proportion of recent inter-population migration along the Malacca Strait. The signature of historical colonization from refugia in the Andaman Sea (north-to-south migration along the Malacca Strait) predominated for A. alba and S. alba. Historical south-north migration predominated for R. mucronata and B. gymnorhiza. Main conclusions This study is the first to implicate dispersal potential as a causal factor of varying mangrove species genetic structure across a biogeographic barrier. The Malay Peninsula functions as a filter to gene flow rather than a barrier. The genetic structure in mangrove species with a higher dispersal potential is more congruent with contemporary gene flow while that of species with a lower dispersal potential reflects historical processes.Our findings hint at the role of dispersal potential as a predictor of gene flow in mangroves.

DATASET OF TANDEM MASS SPECTRA FOR NON-HALAL PORK-BASED FOOD PRODUCTS
DESCRIPTION : Shotgun proteomics is a high-throughput proteomic studies that commonly used to establish the peptide markers. Massive amounts of tandem mass spectra will be produced after an LC-MS/MS acquisition, as a consequence of thousands of proteins from several biological samples is digested by an enzyme. Manual interpretation for these massive mass spectra is unfeasible; instead, database search engine is used to match the spectra with sequence information contained in the database. Each search engine has a unique algorithm to provide a list of the best matching peptide sequences, as well as a score that related to the confidence level for an individual tandem mass spectrum. In this dataset, three proteomic database search engines namely Comet, X! Tandem, and ProteinProspector have been used against 45 types of pork-based food products with triplicate each for halal analysis. The dataset can be used to compare and discuss the ability of each database search engine, in term of detected spectra, matched peptide-spectrum, and inferred proteins. A false-discovery rate can also be compared and discussed from this dataset, in respect of database searching. A result of combined database search engine can be generated from this dataset to leverage the information contained in the database during interpretation of massive amounts of tandem mass spectra.

THE COMPLETE MITOCHONDRIAL GENOMES OF PANGASIUS NASUTUS AND P. CONCHOPHILUS (SILURIFORMES: PANGASIIDAE)
DESCRIPTION : The catfish, Pangasius nasutus and P. conchophilus, are often misidentified between each other due to their similar morphology. Thus, the current study was conducted to differentiate them based on a molecular approach. The complete mitochondrial genomes of P. nasutus and P. conchophilus obtained from the Pahang River (Peninsular Malaysia) were sequenced, assembled, and annotated using Next-generation sequencing (NGS). A 16,465 bp and 16,470 bp length mitogenome sequence of P. nasutus and P. conchophilus, respectively were generated, each containing 13 protein genes, 22 tRNAs, and two rRNAs, typical of most vertebrates. This is the first report of the complete mitochondrial genome sequences of P. nasutus and P. conchophilus. This data is a valuable genetic resource for future studies of these two commercially important species.

HIGHER MORTALITY RATES FOR LARGE AND MEDIUM-SIZED MAMMALS ON PLANTATION ROADS COMPARED TO HIGHWAYS IN PENINSULAR MALAYSIA
DESCRIPTION : The fragmentation of forests by agricultural expansion, urbanisation and road networks is a global phenomenon. In Southeast Asia, wildlife populations are being isolated into pockets of natural habitat surrounded by road networks and monoculture plantations. Mortality by wildlife-vehicle collisions (WVCs) is causing a decline in many species of conservation priority in human-modified landscapes. This study is the first in Malaysia to investigate factors affecting the occurrence of WVCs. We assessed roadkill data gathered by the Department of Wildlife and National Parks on small, medium and large mammals in Peninsular Malaysia. We examined the relationship between wildlife road accidents and environmental factors. We found a total of 605 roadkills, involving 21 species. Roadkill records included three species classified as endangered. Road type, year, and distance from continuous and fragmented forests were significant for determining mammal mortality. Unexpectedly, the majority of road mortality occurred on oil palm plantation roads compared to highways. Mortality of small and medium mammals was greater at locations further away from continuous forest than those closer to forests. Segmentation of continuous forest by roads should be avoided wherever possible, and wildlife corridors should be put in place to reduce the threat of roads on crossing wildlife.
