Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of data processing, and in particular to a method and system for screening effect factors of saliva of larvae of the American white moth and oviposition secretions of female insects. Background Art

[0002] The gypsy moth is a global quarantine pest and is included in my country's first list of invasive alien species.

[0003] The main reasons why the gypsy moth causes serious harm to agriculture and forestry are that it lays a large number of eggs, has a wide range of food, and its older larvae are voracious. At present, we are considering providing targeted solutions to this major invasive alien pest through genetic analysis. For example, by extracting protein information from the saliva and egg-laying secretions of the larvae, we can then screen out protein information that characterizes the characteristic genes of the invasive species and acts on the gypsy moth as effector factors, so as to develop and provide genetic control measures that can target this invasive pest without affecting local species.

[0004] In related technologies, when analyzing effect factors, the international standard gene function classification (Gene Ontology, GO) database or the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) database is usually used as a reference, and the functional classification of one of the databases is integrated and calculated by enrichment analysis to achieve the screening of effect factors. However, most of the current enrichment analyses only consider the functional classification of one of the databases, and the screened effect factors have poor practicality. In addition, there are a few schemes that consider referring to both databases at the same time, but because the classification methods of the two databases are different and the data differences are large, most of these schemes need to set an error threshold to normalize the similar data, and the final screening results are also prone to large errors due to extreme data.

[0024] It should be particularly noted that any symbols and / or numbers in the specification that are not marked in the accompanying drawings are not drawing marks.

[0025] The optional embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0026] The embodiments provided in this application are embodiments of a method for screening the saliva of larvae of the American white moth and the egg-laying secretions of female insects.

[0027] Combine the following Figure 1 The embodiments of the present application are described in detail.

[0028] Figure 1 The flowchart of the method for screening saliva of invasive species gypsy moth larvae and oviposition secretions of female gypsy moths according to an embodiment of the present application is shown as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the process includes the following steps S101 to S104.

[0029] In step S101, mass spectrometry analysis is performed on the saliva of the invasive species cuneiform moth larvae and the oviposition secretions of the female cuneiform moth to obtain protein information related to the feeding of the cuneiform moth larvae and the oviposition of the female cuneiform moth. This example conducts mass spectrometry analysis on the saliva of larvae and oviposition secretions of female gypsy moth, an invasive species, which helps to accurately identify and analyze protein information directly related to the feeding habits of larvae and oviposition behavior of female gypsy moth.

[0030] During their growth and development, nymphs generally take in a variety of protein sources, among which the silk protein gene of nymphs shows different expression patterns in different tissues.

[0031] For example, the three silk fibroin genes HcP25, HcFib-H and HcFib-L are most highly expressed in the silk gland tissue of the third-instar gypsy moth larvae, and are significantly higher than those in other tissues.

[0032] Generally speaking, the expression profiles of these genes also show significant differences after feeding on different host plants.

[0033] For example, the relative expression levels of HcP25 and HcFib-H genes of the gypsy moth larvae feeding on poplar trees were significantly higher than those of populations on other hosts, while the relative expression level of HcFib-L of the gypsy moth larvae feeding on mountain cherry trees was significantly higher than that of other populations.

[0034] From the above, it can be seen that when the larvae of the gypsy moth feed on different plants, they generally adjust their protein intake and metabolism according to the plant species to meet their growth and development needs.

[0035] Therefore, this application obtains corresponding protein information by performing mass spectrometry analysis on the saliva of the invasive species gypsy moth larvae and the egg-laying secretions of female insects, which can effectively determine the distribution and growth characteristics of the gypsy moth and provide assistance for subsequent analysis and research.

[0036] In step S102, a first sample graph of protein information is generated based on the functional classification of Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) data, and a second sample graph of protein information is generated based on the functional classification of standard gene functional classification GO data.

[0037] Taking the gypsy moth as an example, this embodiment uses the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) data to functionally classify the protein information of the gypsy moth and generate the first sample graph. This graph shows in detail the distribution of gypsy moth proteins in biological processes such as metabolic pathways, gene expression regulation, and signal transduction, revealing its complex biological functions. At the same time, this embodiment further classifies the protein information of the gypsy moth based on the standard gene function classification (GO) data, and generates a second sample graph, which focuses on the specific role of proteins in molecular functions, cellular components, and biological processes.

[0038] The first sample image identifies different proteins based on pixel coordinates, and the first sample image includes three-channel data, in which different channel data are used to identify molecular functions, cell components, and one of the biological processes in which the protein participates. The second sample image identifies different proteins based on pixel coordinates, and the second sample image includes two-channel data, in which different channel data are used to identify one of the metabolic pathways and the signal transduction pathways.

[0039] In step S103, a protein coloring graph is determined based on the first sample graph and the second sample graph. For example, taking the gypsy moth as an example, the first sample image can be an image of the leopard-patterned upper wings of a male gypsy moth, and the second sample image can be an image of the gorgeous, elegant, and flawless wings of a female gypsy moth. This embodiment uses the above-mentioned first and second sample images to perform protein coloring image analysis, uses image analysis to identify the areas of protein expression on the wings of the gypsy moth, and draws a protein coloring image based on the grayscale values ​​and optical density values ​​of these areas. The protein coloring image can reflect the distribution of proteins on the wings of the gypsy moth, which is helpful for further understanding of the biological characteristics and ecological habits of the gypsy moth.

[0040] In step S104, the effect factor is determined based on the color value of each pixel position in the protein coloring map.

[0041] In the present application, the three-channel data of the protein coloring diagram is suitable for color characterization and can be output to the display end by color development. On this basis, the machine end can directly screen the effect factor with the corresponding color value according to the three-channel data of the protein coloring diagram, or the color map based on the three-channel data of the protein coloring diagram can be manually analyzed to complete the screening of the effect factor, and the method has the characteristics of flexibility and convenience. In addition, since the whole process is completed by the cluster analysis model, there is no process such as error data normalization that affects data accuracy in data processing, therefore, the present application can achieve accurate color output, and maintain extremely high data accuracy, which provides convenience for the screening of effect factors.

[0042] In the present application, the first sample graph and the second sample graph can be input into a pre-trained cluster analysis model to obtain a corresponding protein coloring graph. The cluster analysis model is a machine learning algorithm suitable for processing classification problems, for example, it can be a deep learning network. By setting a network branch adapted to the input end for the first sample graph and the second sample graph, a corresponding architecture of the feature layer is given. On this basis, according to the output characteristics, three output layer subnetworks are set for the three-channel data required for outputting the protein coloring graph, and finally output as a protein coloring graph with three-channel data in a superimposed form.

[0043] For example, after training, the cluster analysis model can output the color values ​​corresponding to different protein information after given the first sample graph and the second sample graph, that is, given the input data including molecular functions, cell components, and biological processes, metabolic pathways, and signal transduction pathways in which proteins participate. On this basis, the protein information can be further classified or grouped according to the result values ​​given by the cluster analysis model by accessing the color processing model.

[0044] To facilitate understanding, the data processing process within the cluster analysis model is explained below.

[0045] Figure 2 A flowchart of a method for inputting a first sample graph and a second sample graph into a pre-trained cluster analysis model to obtain a protein coloring graph is shown, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown, the process includes the following steps S201 to S203.

[0046] In step S201, channel fusion is performed on the first sample image and the second sample image respectively to obtain a first grayscale image of the first sample image and a second grayscale image of the second sample image.

[0047] In step S202, the first grayscale image and the second grayscale image are colored respectively to obtain a first colored image of the first grayscale image and a second colored image of the second grayscale image, wherein the colored images contain three-channel data for representing colors.

[0048] In step S203, the first colored image is fused with the second colored image to obtain a protein colored image.

[0049] For example, first, the first sample image (such as a larval stage photo) and the second sample image (such as an adult stage photo) of the gypsy moth can be fused through channels to obtain a first grayscale image of the first sample image and a second grayscale image of the second sample image. Channel fusion can ensure the integrity and accuracy of image information.

[0050] Secondly, the first grayscale image and the second grayscale image can be colored based on the biological characteristics of the gypsy moth to obtain a first colored image (green larvae) of the first grayscale image and a second colored image (white adult) of the second grayscale image. For example, the biological characteristics of the gypsy moth may include the green body of the larvae and the white wings of the adults. The first colored image and the second colored image contain three-channel data for representing colors, making the image closer to the actual biological characteristics.

[0051] Finally, the first colored image and the second colored image can be fused to obtain a complete protein colored image of the gypsy moth. The protein colored image of the gypsy moth can show the morphological changes of the gypsy moth from larvae to adults, and also emphasizes its biological characteristics through color information, providing certain visual support for subsequent scientific research analysis.

[0052] In the present application, the first colored image and the second colored image represent color images with three-channel data respectively. When the first colored image and the second colored image are image-fused, the data fusion can be performed in a color channel corresponding manner.

[0053] In the present application, the grayscale image can be processed into a colored image in the following manner. In particular, for ease of description, the present application defines a target grayscale image for characterizing the first grayscale image or the second grayscale image, and defines a target colored image for characterizing the first colored image or the second colored image. When the target grayscale image in the embodiment is the first grayscale image, the target colored image should be regarded as the first colored image, and correspondingly, when the target grayscale image in the embodiment is the second grayscale image, the target colored image should be regarded as the second colored image.

[0054] Figure 3 The flowchart of the method for coloring the target grayscale image to obtain the target colored image is shown in the present application. Figure 3 As shown, the process includes the following steps S301 to S302.

[0055] In step S301, based on two different sub-networks in the cluster analysis model, feature extraction is performed on the target grayscale image to obtain two feature maps each having single-channel data.

[0056] In step S302, the target grayscale image and the feature image are channel-joined to obtain a target colored image with three-channel data.

[0057] In this application, the receptive fields of two different subnetworks are different, and the two feature maps obtained correspond one-to-one to the two different subnetworks in the cluster analysis model. Since the branch with a larger receptive field can focus on a wider area to capture high-level semantic information, the branch with a smaller receptive field can locate a more accurate color value in a small range, thereby ensuring the accuracy of the coloring result.

[0058] In a feasible embodiment, the color of the protein coloring image can be expressed in YUV format. The first coloring image and the second coloring image are also expressed in YUV format. Correspondingly, the first grayscale image and the second grayscale image can be regarded as the Y color channel image in the YUV format image. The present application realizes image coloring based on protein information by filling the U color channel and the V color channel for the Y color channel image.

[0059] In the present application, the effect factor can be determined by the color value of each pixel position in the protein coloring map. In one embodiment, the target pixel position whose color difference value with the target color value is less than the preset color difference threshold can be screened in the protein coloring map, and the protein information represented by the target pixel position is used as the effect factor. This method can ensure that the data is not missed and improve the screening rate of the effect factor. In another embodiment, the pixel position with a preset color value in the image can also be directly searched according to the preset color value. This method can ensure the screening accuracy of the effect factor. As a feasible implementation method, one of the above two implementation methods can be selected for implementation according to the integrity of the model expression to ensure both the screening rate and the screening accuracy.

[0060] In one embodiment, the first sample image and the second sample image can be colored with protein Figure 1 The same output is used to provide reference data for subsequent analysis of the functional mechanism of the effector.

[0061] On this basis, when the effector is determined, the effector can be subjected to functional mechanism analysis through target processing to obtain the functional mechanism analysis result. Then, according to the molecular functions, cell components, biological processes, metabolic pathways and signal transduction pathways represented by the effector in the first sample graph and the second sample graph, the functional mechanism analysis result is checked for consistency, and the functional mechanism analysis result is output if the verification results are consistent.

[0062] The target treatment method can be understood as a specific treatment method selected, for example, it can be at least one of CRISPR / Cas9 treatment, RNAi treatment, overexpression treatment and transgenic treatment.

[0063] Of course, if the verification results are inconsistent, the functional mechanism analysis results, the first sample graph, and the second sample graph can be further analyzed manually or by setting a specific AI model. If the functional mechanism analysis results are determined to be inaccurate after verification, the information represented by the first sample graph and the second sample graph will be output as the updated functional mechanism analysis results. If it is determined after verification that the information represented by the first sample graph and the second sample graph is inaccurate, the inaccurate first sample graph and the second sample graph are set as the negative gold finger of the cluster analysis model, and the cluster analysis model is updated and trained to further improve the accuracy of the cluster analysis model.

[0064] In addition, as some feasible embodiments, the present application can use CRISPR / Cas9 and RNAi and other means to deeply explore the functions and mechanisms of these effectors in the key processes of feeding and oviposition of invasive species of American white moth. Based on this, the expression of specific genes can be specifically inhibited or activated to study the effects of these genes on the harmful process of American white moth. At the same time, the effects of these factors on the interaction between American white moth and host plants are analyzed by overexpression and transgenic techniques. Through overexpression or transgenic technology, specific genes can be overexpressed or silenced in host plants to study the effects of these genes on the interaction between American white moth and host plants. In addition, various molecular interaction analysis methods, such as yeast two-hybridization, immunoprecipitation, fluorescence resonance energy transfer, etc., are used at the same time to clarify the regulation mode of these factors on host plants and the influence mode and mechanism of the interaction between American white moth and host plants. These molecular interaction analysis methods can help us to deeply understand the interaction between these factors and host plants, thereby providing important clues for further studying the harmful mechanism of American white moth. Finally, the evolution of these factors and their relationship with the invasion process of invasive species are studied by bioinformatics analysis.

[0065] On this basis, through bioinformatics analysis, we can compare the sequence and structural characteristics of these factors in different species, so as to study the evolutionary history of these factors. At the same time, through bioinformatics analysis, we can also study the relationship between these factors and the invasion process of invasive species, thus providing important clues for further research on the invasion mechanism of invasive species.

[0066] The present application also provides a system embodiment that is based on the above embodiment, which is used to implement the method steps of the above embodiment. The explanation based on the same name meaning is the same as the above embodiment, and has the same technical effect as the above embodiment, which will not be repeated here.

[0067] like Figure 4 As shown, the present application provides an invasive species effect factor screening system 400, comprising: The processing unit 402 is used to perform mass spectrometry analysis on the saliva of the larvae of the American white moth and the oviposition secretions of the female insects to obtain protein information related to the feeding of the larvae of the American white moth and the oviposition of the female insects. The generating unit 401 is used to generate a first sample map of protein information based on the functional classification of the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes KEGG data. Among them, the first sample map identifies different proteins based on pixel coordinates, and the first sample map contains three-channel data, and different channel data in the three-channel data are respectively used to identify molecular functions, cell components, and one of the biological processes in which the protein participates. Based on the functional classification of the standard gene function classification GO data, a second sample map of protein information is generated. Among them, the second sample map identifies different proteins based on pixel coordinates, and the second sample map contains two-channel data, and different channel data in the two-channel data are respectively used to identify one of the metabolic pathways and signal transduction pathways. The processing unit 402 is also used to determine the protein coloring map based on the first sample map and the second sample map. The determining unit 403 is used to determine the effect factor based on the color value of each pixel position in the protein coloring map.

[0068] In one embodiment, the processing unit 402 uses the first sample image and the second sample image as inputs to a pre-trained cluster analysis model in the following manner to obtain a protein coloring image output by the cluster analysis model and containing three-channel data: the first sample image and the second sample image are channel-fused to obtain a first grayscale image of the first sample image, and a second grayscale image of the second sample image. The first grayscale image and the second grayscale image are colorized to obtain a first coloring image of the first grayscale image and a second coloring image of the second grayscale image, respectively, and the coloring image contains three-channel data for characterizing color.
