We suggest that the emergence of α-amylases with signal peptides in land plants (clade A) could be related to apoplastic secretion of these enzymes to nutritive tissues, such as the starchy endosperm of seed plants, to utilize oligosaccharides stored there. The increased need for efficient star...

Multiple sequence alignment of the obtained genes was conducted using the MUSCLE method in MEGA X software and visualized through Jalview software [33,34]. Phylogenetic analysis of these genes was performed by the neighbor-joining (NJ) method with 1000 bootstrap values in MEGA X software. Then,...

Ticks rely heavily on chemosensation to identify and locate hosts. Chemosensation is the main function ascribed to the Haller's organ, a unique structure found on the foretarsus of the first pair of legs. The Haller's organ is not found in any other animals. In addition to detecting host...
