Abstract

The storage mite, Tyrophagus putrescentiae, found worldwide in many habitats, is an important pest of edible fungi in China. Storage mites are tiny and difficult to observe, especially when they occur in fungi composts. In this study, one gustatory receptor protein (TputGR1) was identified from the transcriptome of T. putrescentiae. Phylogenetic analysis of GRs families from 10 arthropod species revealed that TputGR1 had high homology with the SccaGR1 of Sarcoptes scabiei and TurtGR1-2 of Tetranychus urticae, but low homology with other insect species, Drosophila melanogaster, Anopheles gambiae, Bombyx mori, Aedes aegypti, Culex quinquefasciatus, and Pediculus humanus. We developed a detection system for the mite on fungi hosts using the GR protein and the loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). This procedure was rapid (60 min from sampling to result) and had high sensitivity (0.5 ng/mL). LAMP provided rapid and reliable detection of T. putrescentiae. It has good specificity for single samples and for large-scale surveys.

Attention Score in Context

Attention Score in Context

This research output has an Altmetric Attention Score of 2. 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 01 August 2018.
All research outputs
#18,345,259
of 23,577,654 outputs
Outputs from Scientific Reports
#90,655
of 127,511 outputs
Outputs of similar age
#238,856
of 330,916 outputs
Outputs of similar age from Scientific Reports
#2,514
of 3,616 outputs
Altmetric has tracked 23,577,654 research outputs across all sources so far. This one is in the 19th percentile – i.e., 19% of other outputs scored the same or lower than it.
So far Altmetric has tracked 127,511 research outputs from this source. They typically receive a lot more attention than average, with a mean Attention Score of 18.4. This one is in the 23rd percentile – i.e., 23% 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 330,916 tracked outputs that were published within six weeks on either side of this one in any source. This one is in the 22nd percentile – i.e., 22% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
We're also able to compare this research output to 3,616 others from the same source and published within six weeks on either side of this one. This one is in the 24th percentile – i.e., 24% of its contemporaries scored the same or lower than it.
