Experimental evidence for long‐term coexistence of copiotrophic and oligotrophic bacteria in pelagic surface seawater - Yi Li; Zhi‐Bin Wang; Xi‐Ying Zhang; Yan‐Ru Dang; Lin‐Lin Sun; Wei‐Peng Zhang; Hui‐Hui Fu; Gui‐Peng Yang; Min Wang; Andrew McMinn; Xiu‐Lan Chen; Yin Chen; et al. (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary Most marine copiotrophic bacteria can produce extracellular enzymes to degrade biopolymers into bio‐available smaller solutes, while oligotrophic bacteria usually cannot. Bacterial extracellular enzymes and enzymatic products can be a common resource that could be utilized by both copiotrophs and oligotrophs; when present, oligotrophs may outcompete the enzyme‐producing copiotrophs. However, copiotrophs and oligotrophs consistently coexist in the ocean. How they maintain coexistence has still not been experimentally studied. In this study, the interaction and coexistence of a copiotroph and an oligotroph, isolated from the same surface seawater sample and utilizing the same proteinaceous substrate, were experimentally investigated. The copiotroph could secrete extracellular proteases to degrade and then utilize the proteinaceous substrate. The oligotroph was unable to utilize the proteinaceous substrate by itself, but could grow by using the hydrolysate amino acids. The copiotroph outcompeted the oligotroph by adsorbing the amino acids quickly and having a higher growth rate in the rich medium. The oligotroph survived by adapting to low concentration of nutrients. The copiotroph and oligotroph were able to maintain long‐term (up to 142 days) coexistence in the laboratory. This study indicates that differences in the utilization of different concentrations of nutrients can drive the coexistence of marine copiotrophs and oligotrophs.

The role of internal variability in climate change projections of North American surface air temperature and temperature extremes in CanESM2 large ensemble simulations - Bin Yu; Guilong Li; Shangfeng Chen; Hai Lin (Climate Dynamics, 2020)
Recent studies indicated that the internal climate variability plays an important role in various aspects of projected climate changes on regional and local scales. Here we present results of the spreads in projected trends of wintertime North American surface air temperature and extremes indices of warm and cold days over the next half-century, by analyzing a 50-member large ensemble of climate simulations conducted with CanESM2. CanESM2 simulations confirm the important role of internal variability in projected surface temperature trends as demonstrated in previous studies. Yet the spread in North American warming trends in CanESM2 is generally smaller than those obtained from CCSM3 and ECHAM5 large ensemble simulations. Despite this, large spreads in the climate means as well as climate change trends of North American temperature extremes are apparent in CanESM2, especially in the projected cold day trends. The ensemble mean of forced climate simulations reveals high risks of warm days over the western coast and northern Canada, as well as a weakening belt of cold days extending from Alaska to the northeast US. The individual ensemble members differ from the ensemble mean mainly in magnitude of the warm day trends, but depart considerably from the ensemble mean in spatial pattern and magnitude of the cold day trends. The signal-to-noise ratio pattern of the warm day trend resembles that of the surface air temperature trend, with stronger signals over northern Canada, Alaska, and the southwestern US than the midsection of the continent. The projected cold day patterns reveal strong signals over the southwestern US, northern Canada, and the northeastern US. In addition, the internally generated components of mean and extreme temperature trends exhibit spatial coherences over North America, and are comparable to their externally forced trends. The large-scale atmospheric circulation-induced temperature variability influences these trends. Overall, our results suggest that climate change trends of North American temperature extremes are likely very uncertain and need to be applied with caution.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells combine with normothermic machine perfusion to improve rat donor liver quality—the important role of hepatic microcirculation in donation after circulatory death - Liu Yang; Huan Cao; Dong Sun; Bin Hou; Ling Lin; Zhong-Yang Shen; Hong-Li Song (Cell and Tissue Research, 2020)
Donation after circulatory death (DCD) can expand the donor pool effectively. A gap remains in outcome between DCD livers and living donor livers, warranting improved DCD liver quality and urgent resolution. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) can regulate immunity, participate in the anti-inflammatory response, and secrete cytokines. We investigated the effect of BMMSCs combined with normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) on DCD liver quality, and the role of microcirculation therein. Rat thoracic aortas were clipped to obtain DCD livers, and a rat NMP system was established. The DCD livers were grouped by preservation method: normal, static cold storage (SCS), NMP (P), and BMMSCs plus NMP (BP); storage time was up to 8 h. Liver function in outflow perfusate was detected by biochemical methods; liver tissue histopathology was observed by hematoxylin–eosin staining; hepatocyte ultrastructure was observed by transmission electron microscopy; hepatocyte apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling; liver microcirculation–related indicators were detected by immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, Western blotting, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Compared with SCS, P and BP significantly improved liver function and liver histological damage, reduced hepatocyte apoptosis, and repaired hepatocyte mitochondrial damage after 6 h in vitro. BP also significantly inhibited intrahepatic macrophage activation and intercellular adhesion, improved endothelial damage, and significantly improved endothelin 1–nitric oxide balance and microcirculation perfusion. In conclusion, BP can improve DCD liver microcirculation and quality. The mechanism may be the improvement of improve hepatic sinusoidal endothelial injury and microcirculation perfusion by inhibiting macrophage activation and intercellular adhesion.

Plastic pollution in croplands threatens long‐term food security - Dan Zhang; Ee Ling Ng; Wanli Hu; Hongyuan Wang; Pablo Galaviz; Hude Yang; Wentao Sun; Chongxiao Li; Xingwang Ma; Bin Fu; Peiyi Zhao; Fulin Zhang; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2020)
Plastic pollution is a global concern given its prevalence in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Studies have been conducted on the distribution and impact of plastic pollution in marine ecosystems, but little is known on terrestrial ecosystems. Plastic mulch has been widely used to increase crop yields worldwide, yet the impact of plastic residues in cropland soils to soil health and crop production in the long term remained unclear. In this paper, using a global meta‐analysis, we found that the use of plastic mulch can indeed increase crop yields on average by 25%–42% in the immediate season due to the increase of soil temperature (+8%) and moisture (+17%). However, the unabated accumulation of film residues in the field negatively impacts its physicochemical properties linked to healthy soil and threatens food production in the long term. It has multiple negative impacts on plant growth including crop yield (at the mean rate of −3% for every additional 100 kg/ha of film residue), plant height (−2%) and root weight (−5%), and soil properties including soil water evaporation capacity (−2%), soil water infiltration rate (−8%), soil organic matter (−0.8%) and soil available phosphorus (−5%) based on meta‐regression. Using a nationwide field survey of China, the largest user of plastic mulch worldwide, we found that plastic residue accumulation in cropland soils has reached 550,800 tonnes, with an estimated 6%–10% reduction in cotton yield in some polluted sites based on current level of plastic residue content. Immediate actions should be taken to ensure the recovery of plastic film mulch and limit further increase in film residue loading to maintain the sustainability of these croplands.

How can 30–60-day ISO move from the South China Sea to Southern China? - Bin Zheng; Yanyan Huang; Chunhui Li; Ailan Lin (Climate Dynamics, 2020)
In the present study, the northward-propagating intraseasonal oscillations (ISOs) over the South China Sea (SCS) during the summer monsoon season are divided into two types. One is the northward propagation of ISOs confined in the SCS (defined as P1-ISO), another for ISOs moving from the SCS to Southern China (SC) defined as P2-ISO. The spatial and temporal structures of the two types of ISOs are compared based on the analysis of the NCEP–NCAR reanalysis datasets. It is found that a significant difference appears in the heat flux anomalies over SC that is attributed to the cloud-radiation effect. A mechanism associated with the changes in the convective instability is proposed to understand the cause of the northward propagation of the ISO from the SCS to SC. For the P1-ISO, a more precipitation over SC leads to a less surface solar radiation and then a cold land surface temperature (LST), which induces an increase of static stability via surface longwave radiation and sensible heat flux. Whereas the total contribution to the convective instability changes does create an unfavorable for ISOs propagating northward, the moisture convergence, mainly controlled by the baroclinic vorticity advection effect, may contribute to an increase of convective instability that favors the ISOs moving northward. For the P2-ISO, a less precipitation over SC results in a more shortwave radiation reaching the ground that induces a warm LST, and thus leading to a warm low-level air temperature and destabilizing the atmosphere ahead of the convection. Moreover, the moisture convergence, dominated by the warm low-level air temperature, also contributes to the increase of convective instability. Thus the convective instability increment should favor the ISOs moving northward. It is worth noting that the baroclinic vorticity advection and moisture advection are not essential for ISOs propagating from the SCS to SC.

Assessment of meteorological variables and heat fluxes from atmospheric reanalysis and objective analysis products over the Bering Sea - Bin Kong; Na Liu; Lina Lin; Yan He; Yingjie Wang; Zengdi Pan (International Journal of Climatology, 2019)
Surface meteorological variables and heat fluxes in the Bering Sea obtained from Chinese Arctic buoys and U.S. National Data Buoy Center buoys are compared with seven products. The seven products comprise six reanalysis products, that is, the European Centre for Medium‐Range Weather Forecasts Interim Reanalysis (ERA‐Interim), Japanese 55‐year Reanalysis (JRA‐55), Modern Era Retrospective‐analysis for Research and Applications Version 2 (MERRA2), National Center for Environmental Prediction‐National Center for Atmospheric Research Reanalysis 1 (NCEP1), the National Centers for Environmental Prediction‐Department of Energy Reanalysis 2 (NCEP2), and Arctic System Reanalysis Version 2 (ASR2), and one objective analysis product, that is, Objectively Analyzed Air‐Sea Fluxes (OAFlux). The best estimates of the air temperature and specific humidity is obtained by JRA‐55, of the sea surface temperature by ERA‐Interim, MERRA2, and ASR2, and of the wind speed by ERA‐Interim. Shortwave radiation is overestimated by all of the products. Longwave radiation is significantly underestimated by all of the products except for ASR2 in the Bering Sea. In terms of the turbulent heat fluxes, the products can be divided into two classes. ERA‐Interim, JRA‐55, MERRA2, and ASR2 obtain better estimates of the latent heat flux (LHF) and sensible heat flux (SHF) compared with NCEP1, NCEP2, and OAFlux. We investigate two possible causes of the discrepancy in the turbulent heat fluxes obtained by the buoy and reanalysis products, that is, the bulk algorithm and meteorological variables. The algorithm is not the dominant cause of the discrepancy between the turbulent heat fluxes obtained by the buoy and reanalysis products in the Bering Sea. Among the meteorological variables, the difference in specific humidity contributes the largest root‐mean‐square error (RMSE) of LHF between buoy and all reanalysis products, and the difference in air temperature contributes the largest RMSE of SHF.

F‐box proteins MoFwd1, MoCdc4 and MoFbx15 regulate development and pathogenicity in the rice blast fungus Magnaporthe oryzae - Huan‐Bin Shi; Nan Chen; Xue‐Ming Zhu; Shuang Liang; Lin Li; Jiao‐Yu Wang; Jian‐Ping Lu; Fu‐Cheng Lin; Xiao‐Hong Liu (Environmental Microbiology, 2019)
Summary The Skp1‐Cul1‐F‐box‐protein (SCF) ubiquitin ligases are important parts of the ubiquitin system controlling many cellular biological processes in eukaryotes. However, the roles of SCF ubiquitin ligases remain unclear in phytopathogenic Magnaporthe oryzae . Here, we cloned 24 F‐box proteins and confirmed that 17 proteins could interact with MoSkp1, showing their potential to participate in SCF complexes. To determine their functions, null mutants of 21 F‐box‐containing genes were created. Among them, the F‐box proteins MoFwd1, MoCdc4 and MoFbx15 were found to be required for growth, development and full virulence. Fluorescent‐microscopy observations demonstrated that both MoFbx15 and MoCdc4 were localized to the nucleus, compared with MoFwd1, which was distributed in the cytosol. MoCdc4 and MoFwd1 bound to MoSkp1 via the F‐box domain, the deletion of which abrogated their function. Race tube and qRT‐PCR assays confirmed that MoFwd1 was involved in circadian rhythm by regulating transcription and protein stability of the core circadian clock regulator MoFRQ . Moreover, MoFWD1 also orchestrates conidial germination by influencing conidial amino acids pools and oxidative stress release. Overall, our results indicate that SCF ubiquitin ligases play indispensable roles in development and pathogenicity in M. oryzae .

Direct and indirect effects of climate on richness drive the latitudinal diversity gradient in forest trees - Chengjin Chu; James A. Lutz; Kamil Král; Tomáš Vrška; Xue Yin; Jonathan A. Myers; Iveren Abiem; Alfonso Alonso; Norm Bourg; David F.R.P. Burslem; Min Cao; Hazel Chapman; et al. (Ecology Letters, 2019)
Climate is widely recognised as an important determinant of the latitudinal diversity gradient. However, most existing studies make no distinction between direct and indirect effects of climate, which substantially hinders our understanding of how climate constrains biodiversity globally. Using data from 35 large forest plots, we test hypothesised relationships amongst climate, topography, forest structural attributes (stem abundance, tree size variation and stand basal area) and tree species richness to better understand drivers of latitudinal tree diversity patterns. Climate influences tree richness both directly, with more species in warm, moist, aseasonal climates and indirectly, with more species at higher stem abundance. These results imply direct limitation of species diversity by climatic stress and more rapid (co‐)evolution and narrower niche partitioning in warm climates. They also support the idea that increased numbers of individuals associated with high primary productivity are partitioned to support a greater number of species.

Detection and quantification of Aeromonas schubertii in Channa maculata by TaqMan MGB probe fluorescence real‐time quantitative PCR - Chun Liu; Yanming M. Guo; Jizhen Z. Cao; De‐Feng Zhang; Ou‐Qin Chang; Kaibin Li; Fang Wang; Cun‐Bin Shi; Lan Jiang; Qing Wang; Li Lin (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2019)
Aeromonas schubertii is a major epidemiological agent that threatens cultured snakeheads ( Channidae ) and has caused great economic losses in fish‐farming industries in China in recent years. In present study, a specific TaqMan minor groove binder ( MGB ) probe fluorescence real‐time quantitative PCR ( qPCR ) assay was developed to rapidly detect and quantify A. schubertii . A pair of qPCR primers and a TaqMan MGB probe were selected from the rpoD gene, which were shown to be specific for A. schubertii . A high correlation coefficient ( R 2 = 0.9998) in a standard curve with a 103% efficiency was obtained. Moreover, the qPCR method's detection limit was as low as 18 copies/μl, which was 100 times more sensitive than that of conventional PCR . The detection results for the A. schubertii in pond water and fish tissue were consistent with those of the viable counts. Bacterial load changes detected by qPCR in different tissues of snakeheads infected with A. schubertii showed that the gills and intestines may be the entry for A. schubertii , and the spleen and kidney are major sites for A. schubertii replication. The established method in present study should be a useful tool for the early surveillance and quantitation of A. schubertii .

Theoretical and eddy covariance studies demonstrate that aerosol‐loading stimulates canopy photosynthesis, but field evidence for the aerosol effect on tree growth is limited. Here, we measured in situ daily stem growth rates of aspen trees under a wide range of aerosol‐loading in China. The results showed that daily stem growth rates were positively correlated with aerosol‐loading, even at exceptionally high aerosol levels. Using structural equation modeling analysis, we showed that variations in stem growth rates can be largely attributed to two environmental variables covarying with aerosol loading: diffuse fraction of radiation and vapor pressure deficit (VPD). Furthermore, we found that these two factors influence stem growth by influencing photosynthesis from different parts of canopy. Using field observations and a mechanistic photosynthesis model, we demonstrate that photosynthetic rates of both sun and shade leaves increased under high aerosol‐loading conditions but for different reasons. For sun leaves, the photosynthetic increase was primarily attributed to the concurrent lower VPD; for shade leaves, the positive aerosol effect was tightly connected with increased diffuse light. Overall, our study provides the first field evidence of increased tree growth under high aerosol loading. We highlight the importance of understanding biophysical mechanisms of aerosol‐meteorology interactions, and incorporating the different pathways of aerosol effects into earth system models to improve the prediction of large‐scale aerosol impacts, and the associated vegetation‐mediated climate feedbacks.

VPS9 domain‐containing proteins are essential for autophagy and endocytosis in Pyricularia oryzae - Xue‐Ming Zhu; Shuang Liang; Huan‐Bin Shi; Jian‐Ping Lu; Bo Dong; Qian‐Sheng Liao; Fu‐Cheng Lin; Xiao‐Hong Liu (Environmental Microbiology, 2018)
Summary Pyricularia oryzae is the causal pathogen of rice blast disease. Autophagy has been shown to play important roles in P . oryzae development and plant infection. The P. oryzae endosomal system is highly dynamic and has been shown to be associated with conidiogenesis and pathogenicity as well. To date, the crosstalk between autophagy and endocytosis has not been explored in P. oryzae . Here, we identified three P. oryzae VPS9 domain‐containing proteins, PoVps9, PoMuk1 and PoVrl1. We found that PoVps9 and PoMuk1 are localized to vesicles and are each co‐localized with PoVps21, a recognized marker of early endosomes. Deletion of PoVPS9 resulted in severe defects in endocytosis and autophagosome degradation and impaired the localization of PoVps21 to endosomes. Additionally, deletion of the PoMUK1 gene in the Δ Povps9 mutant background exhibited more severe defects in development, autophagy and endocytosis compared with the Δ Povps9 mutant. Pull‐down assay showed that PoVps9 interacts with PoVps21, PoRab11 and PoRab1, which have been verified to participate in endocytosis. Furthermore, yeast two‐hybrid and co‐immunoprecipitation assays confirmed that PoVps9 directly interacts with the GDP form of PoVps21. Thus, PoVps9 is a key protein involved in autophagy and in endocytosis.

Two reported cytotypes of the emergent orchid model species Erycina pusilla are two different species - Hsuan-Yu Yeh; Choun-Sea Lin; Hans de Jong; Song-Bin Chang (Euphytica, 2017)
Each species is characterized by a specific set of chromosomes, which is described as the chromosome portrait or karyotype. In general, such a karyotype is the same for all individuals in the population. An exception to that rule has recently been found in the orchid Erycina pusilla , which has been reported to have two cytotypes with chromosome numbers of 2n = 10 and 2n = 12. Here, we examined the karyotypes of the two cytotypes and found differences in arm ratios and heterochromatin patterns as well as in the presence of satellite chromosomes and in the number and location of rDNA and telomeric repeat sites. These differences are extensive and would have required multiple chromosome rearrangements to generate the differences between the two karyotypes. We also found that F1 hybrids between the parents with the two different chromosome numbers resulted in sterile offspring, in accordance with our previous findings. The combination of hybrid sterility and extensively rearranged chromosomes supports the hypothesis that these two reported cytotypes are, in fact, two different species.

Making a queen: an epigenetic analysis of the robustness of the honeybee ( A pis mellifera ) queen developmental pathway - Xu Jiang He; Lin Bin Zhou; Qi Zhong Pan; Andrew B. Barron; Wei Yu Yan; Zhi Jiang Zeng (Molecular Ecology, 2017)
Specialized castes are considered a key reason for the evolutionary and ecological success of the social insect lifestyle. The most essential caste distinction is between the fertile queen and the sterile workers. Honeybee ( A pis mellifera ) workers and queens are not genetically distinct, rather these different phenotypes are the result of epigenetically regulated divergent developmental pathways. This is an important phenomenon in understanding the evolution of social insect societies. Here, we studied the genomic regulation of the worker and queen developmental pathways, and the robustness of the pathways by transplanting eggs or young larvae to queen cells. Queens could be successfully reared from worker larvae transplanted up to 3 days age, but queens reared from older worker larvae had decreased queen body size and weight compared with queens from transplanted eggs. Gene expression analysis showed that queens raised from worker larvae differed from queens raised from eggs in the expression of genes involved in the immune system, caste differentiation, body development and longevity. DNA methylation levels were also higher in 3‐day‐old queen larvae raised from worker larvae compared with that raised from transplanted eggs identifying a possible mechanism stabilizing the two developmental paths. We propose that environmental (nutrition and space) changes induced by the commercial rearing practice result in a suboptimal queen phenotype via epigenetic processes, which may potentially contribute to the evolution of queen–worker dimorphism. This also has potentially contributed to the global increase in honeybee colony failure rates.

Dual‐compartmental transcriptomic + proteomic analysis of a marine endosymbiosis exposed to environmental change - Anderson B. Mayfield; Yu‐Bin Wang; Chii‐Shiarng Chen; Shu‐Hwa Chen; Chung‐Yen Lin (Molecular Ecology, 2016)
As significant anthropogenic pressures are putting undue stress on the world's oceans, there has been a concerted effort to understand how marine organisms respond to environmental change. Transcriptomic approaches, in particular, have been readily employed to document the m RNA ‐level response of a plethora of marine invertebrates exposed to an array of simulated stress scenarios, with the tacit and untested assumption being that the respective proteins show a corresponding trend. To better understand the degree of congruency between m RNA and protein expression in an endosymbiotic marine invertebrate, m RNA s and proteins were sequenced from the same samples of the common, Indo‐Pacific coral Seriatopora hystrix exposed to stable or upwelling‐simulating conditions for 1 week. Of the 167 proteins downregulated at variable temperature, only two were associated with m RNA s that were also differentially expressed between treatments. Of the 378 differentially expressed genes, none were associated with a differentially expressed protein. Collectively, these results highlight the inherent risk of inferring cellular behaviour based on m RNA expression data alone and challenge the current, m RNA ‐focused approach taken by most marine and many molecular biologists.

MoRad6‐mediated ubiquitination pathways are essential for development and pathogenicity in Magnaporthe oryzae - Huan‐Bin Shi; Guo‐Qing Chen; Ya‐Ping Chen; Bo Dong; Jian‐Ping Lu; Xiao‐Hong Liu; Fu‐Cheng Lin (Environmental Microbiology, 2016)
Summary The ubiquitin system modulates protein functions through targeting substrates for ubiquitination. Here, E2 conjugating enzyme MoRad6‐related ubiquitination pathways are identified and analyzed in Magnaporthe oryzae , the causal agent of rice blast disease. Disruption of MoRad6 leads to severe defects in growth, sporulation, conidial germination, appressorium formation, and plant infection. To depict the functions of MoRad6, three putative ubiquitin ligases, MoRad18, MoBre1 and MoUbr1, are also characterized. Deletion of MoRad18 causes minor phenotypic changes, while MoBre1 is required for growth, conidiation and pathogenicity in M. oryzae . Defects in ΔMobre1 likely resulted from the reduction in di‐ and tri‐methylation level of Histone 3 lysine 4 (H3K4). Notably, MoUbr1 is crucial for conidial adhesion and germination, possibly by degrading components of cAMP/PKA and mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) Pmk1 signaling pathways via the N‐end rule pathway. Germination failure of ΔMoubr1 conidia could be rescued by elevation of cAMP level or enhanced Pmk1 phosphorylation resulting from further deletion of MoIra1, the M. oryzae homolog of yeast Ira1/2. These reveal vital effects of cAMP/PKA and MAPK Pmk1 signaling on conidial germination in M. oryzae . Altogether, our results suggest that MoRad6‐mediated ubiquitination pathways are essential for the infection‐related development and pathogenicity of M. oryzae .

Rice false smut fungus hijacks the rice nutrients supply by blocking and mimicking the fertilization of rice ovary - Jie‐Hui Song; Wei Wei; Bo Lv; Yang Lin; Wei‐Xiao Yin; You‐Liang Peng; Guido Schnabel; Jun‐Bin Huang; Dao‐Hong Jiang; Chao‐Xi Luo (Environmental Microbiology, 2016)
Summary Rice false smut disease is an increasing threat to rice production in the world. Despite of best efforts, research for the infection of the fungus has yielded equivocal and conflicting results about where and how the infection is initiated and developed. Here we show a stepwise infection pattern and sophisticated regulation during this process. Initial infection occurred on the filaments, which prevented the production of mature pollen thus blocked the pollination. In the following days, the pathogen invaded the stigmas and styles, occasionally the ovaries. Expression analysis indicated that the fungus mimicked a successful fertilization process and enabled the continuous supply of nutrients for fungus to produce false smut balls. The stepwise infection of flower organs and mimicry of ovary fertilization unveiled in this study guided the rice plant into supplying nutrients for false smut ball development and represents a new and unique biological process of host pathogen interactions.
