The Chinese giant salamander (Andrias davidianus) is the biggest extant and endangered amphibian, which has an incongruous sex ratio during the artificial breeding process and is sex indistinguishable in appearance. The sex development mechanism of this rare species thus needs to be explored. We therefore conducted this study to explore the molecular mechanisms of sex hallmarks or gonad maintenance genes for CGS. In this study, we sequenced and analyzed the sexually mature male and female gonads of Chinese giant salamanders (CGSs) using RNA-seq technology and found a total of 15,063 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the testicular and ovarian tissues, of which 7973 (52.93%) were expressed in testicular and 7090 (47.07%) in ovarian tissues. Thirteen gonad DEGs were selected based on gene expression abundance and quantified in the muscle and skin tissues of both male and female CGSs. The results showed that these 13 DEGS, out of the 20 analyzed DEGs, were expressed in both the muscle and skin tissues and only two of them (Bmp15 and ZP3) were consistent in the muscle and skin compared to the gonads of CGSs of the two sexes. Overall, our study should provide an important reference for the sex-characteristics-related genes in this type of species, shedding new light on future research on this topic.

The diversity and structure of diazotrophic communities in the rhizosphere of coastal saline plants is mainly affected by soil physicochemical factors but not host plant species - Yanjing Song; Lan Ma; Haiyang Zhang; Rao Fu; Xiaoyan Liang; Junlin Li; Jiajia Li; Meng Li; Yan Shan; Jieshan Cheng; Xiangyu Wang; Hongxia Zhang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
The diversity and community structure of rhizospheric microbes are largely affected by soil physicochemical properties and plant species. In this work, high throughput sequencing and quantitative real-time PCR targeting nifH gene were used to assess the abundance and diversity of diazotrophic community in the coastal saline soils of Yellow River Delta (YRD). We demonstrated that the copy number of nifH gene encoding the Fe protein subunit of the nitrogenase in the nitrogen fixation process was significantly affected by soil physiochemical factors, and the abundance of diazotrophs in the rhizospheric soil samples collected from different locations was positively related with soil physicochemical properties. Soil salinity ( P =0.003) and moisture ( P =0.003) were significantly co-varied with the OTU-based community composition of diazotrophs. Taxonomic analysis showed that most diazotrophs belonged to the Alphaproteobacteria , Gammaproteobacteria and Deltaproteobacteria . Linear discriminant analysis (LDA) effect size (LEfSe) and canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) showed that diazotrophic community structure significantly varied with soil salinity, moisture, pH and total nitrogen, carbon, sulphur and nitrite (NO 2 – N) content. Our findings provide direct evidence toward the understanding of different effects of soil physicochemical properties and host plant traits such as halophytes types, life span and cotyledon type, on the community composition of diazotrophic populations in the rhizosphere of plants grown in coastal saline soils.

Shear Modulus of a Carbonate Sand–Silt Mixture with THF Hydrate - Yuzhe Ren; C. F. Chiu; Lu Ma; Y. P. Cheng; Litong Ji; Chao Jiang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The maximum shear modulus (Gmax) is an important factor determining soil deformation, and it is closely related to engineering safety and seafloor stability. In this study, a series of bender element tests was carried out to investigate the Gmax of a hydrate-bearing carbonate sand (CS)–silt mixture. The soil mixture adopted a CS:silt ratio of 1:4 by weight to mimic the fine-grained deposit of the South China Sea (SCS). Tetrahydrofuran (THF) was used to form the hydrate. Special specimen preparation procedures were adopted to form THF hydrate inside the intraparticle voids of the CS. The test results indicate that hydrate contributed to a significant part of the skeletal stiffness of the hydrate-bearing CS–silt mixture, and its Gmax at 5% hydrate saturation (Sh) was 4–6 times that of the host soil mixture. Such stiffness enhancement at a low Sh may be related to the cementation hydrate morphology. However, the Gmax of the hydrate-bearing CS–silt mixture was also sensitive to the effective stress for an Sh ranging between 5% and 31%, implying that the frame-supporting hydrate morphology also plays a key role in the skeletal stiffness of the soil mixture. Neither the existing cementation models nor the theoretical frame-supporting (i.e., Biot–Gassmann theory by Lee (BGTL)), could alone provide a satisfactory prediction of the test results. Thus, further theoretical study involving a combination of cementation and frame-supporting models is essential to understand the effects of complicated hydrate morphologies on the stiffness of soil with a substantial amount of intraparticle voids.

MiR-487b suppressed inflammation and neuronal apoptosis in spinal cord injury by targeted Ifitm3 - Dake Tong; Yanyin Zhao; Yang Tang; Jie Ma; Miao Wang; Bo Li; Zhiwei Wang; Cheng Li (Metabolic Brain Disease, 2022)
Spinal cord injury (SCI) was a serious nerve injury, which involves complex genetic changes. This paper was intended to investigate the function and mechanism of differentially expressed genes in SCI. The three datasets GSE92657, GSE93561 and GSE189070 of SCI from GEO database were used to identify differentially expressed genes (DEGs). We identified the common DEGs in the three datasets GSE92657, GSE93561 and GSE189070 of SCI from GEO database. Next, a protein-protein interaction (PPI) network of DEGs was constructed. Subsequently, the Gene Ontology (GO) and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) analysis showed that DEGs were significantly enriched in immune response, inflammatory response. The expression level of immune-related genes (Arg1, Ccl12, Ccl2, Ifitm2, Ifitm3, and et al.) at different time points of SCI were analyzed in GSE189070 dataset. Next, differentially expressed miRNAs (DE-miRNAs) were identified in SCI compared with normal based on GSE158194 database. DE-miRNA and targeted immune-related genes were predicted by miRwalk, including miR-487b-5p targeted Ifitm3, miR-3072-5p targeted Ccl3, and et al. What’s more, the miR-487b was identified and verified to be down-regulated in Lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced BV-2 cell model. Further, the miR-487b inhibited cell inflammation and apoptosis in LPS-induced BV2 cell by targeted Ifitm3. For the first time, our results revealed that miR-487b may play an important regulatory role in SCI by targeted Ifitm3 and provide further evidence for SCI research.

Effects of aquaculture on the maintenance of waterbird populations - Chuyu Cheng; Jiajia Liu; Zhijun Ma (Conservation Biology, 2022)
The global aquaculture industry has expanded rapidly and is increasingly important for maintaining food security and providing habitat for many waterbirds. Clarifying how waterbirds use aquafarms and how aquafarm use affects waterbird population maintenance can help improve management of the aquafarm landscape such that it can provide habitat for waterbirds. We investigated aquafarm use by waterbirds in China, the world's largest producer of aquaculture products. We used data from the literature on and expert knowledge (questionnaire survey) of waterbird use of aquafarms in China and Bayesian phylogenetic generalized linear mixed models to analyze the relationship between the degree of aquafarm use and population trends of waterbirds. Sixty‐nine percent of waterbird species in China have been recorded at aquafarms. Approximately one quarter of all waterbird species and about the same proportion of threatened species were found to forage at aquafarms, consuming either cultured aquatic products or other food stuffs. In general, species with a high degree of aquafarm use were unlikely to exhibit a population decline over the past 2 decades, when rapid loss of natural habitat occurred in China. This relationship was not detected in threatened species, despite there being no significant difference in the degree of aquafarm use between threatened and nonthreatened species. Our results suggest that the large and expanding aquaculture industry is important for maintaining waterbird populations in China. However, aquafarms are not a replacement for natural habitats because threatened species benefited less from aquafarm use. Given that aquafarms often negatively affect natural wetlands, the degree to which aquafarms compensate for natural habitat loss probably depends on the quality of aquafarm habitat and the habitat requirements of waterbirds. We recommend an integrated ecological and economic analysis to formulate management policies that help conserve wildlife within the constraints and opportunities associated with maintaining human livelihoods.

Recognition and Depth Estimation of Ships Based on Binocular Stereo Vision - Yuanzhou Zheng; Peng Liu; Long Qian; Shiquan Qin; Xinyu Liu; Yong Ma; Ganjun Cheng (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
To improve the navigation safety of inland river ships and enrich the methods of environmental perception, this paper studies the recognition and depth estimation of inland river ships based on binocular stereo vision (BSV). In the stage of ship recognition, considering the computational pressure brought by the huge network parameters of the classic YOLOv4 model, the MobileNetV1 network was proposed as the feature extraction module of the YOLOv4 model. The results indicate that the mAP value of the MobileNetV1-YOLOv4 model reaches 89.25%, the weight size of the backbone network was only 47.6 M, which greatly reduced the amount of computation while ensuring the recognition accuracy. In the stage of depth estimation, this paper proposes a feature point detection and matching algorithm based on the ORB algorithm at sub-pixel level, that is, firstly, the FSRCNN algorithm was used to perform super-resolution reconstruction of the original image, to further increase the density of image feature points and detection accuracy, which was more conducive to the calculation of the image parallax value. The ships’ depth estimation results indicate that when the distance to the target is about 300 m, the depth estimation error is less than 3%, which meets the depth estimation needs of inland ships. The ship target recognition and depth estimation technology based on BSV proposed in this paper makes up for the shortcomings of the existing environmental perception methods, improves the navigation safety of ships to a certain extent, and greatly promotes the development of intelligent ships in the future.

Nitrogen Enrichment Reduces the Diversity of Bacteria and Alters Their Nutrient Strategies in Intertidal Zones - Yuan-Feng Xu; Xu-Meng Dong; Cheng Luo; Shuo-Nan Ma; Ji-Lin Xu; Yong-De Cui (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Intertidal ecosystems are affected by severe nitrogen (N) pollution as a result of anthropogenic activities, and it is unclear how this may affect intertidal microbial communities, which play critical roles in regulating biogeochemical cycles. To address this gap, we conducted a two-month mesocosm experiment using six targeted concentrations of total N. The findings indicated that N entering seawaters has direct negative effects on the bacterial diversity. Dose dependence was found for the effects of N on bacterial diversity in sediment: low N addition increased the bacterial diversity, but a reduction in bacterial diversity occurred when N exceeded a certain value (≥ 3 mg L−1). Additionally, N enrichment caused clear shifts in bacterial community composition with increases in the relative abundance of Balneola (organic-degrading), Phalacroma mitra (carbohydrate-fermenting), and Bacteroides (phosphorus (P)-solubilizing), and decreases in Leptolyngbya_PPC_6406 (N2-fixing). The increased abundance in P-solubilizing and organic-degrading bacteria and decrease in N-fixing bacteria, combined with the upregulated activity of alkaline phosphatase and downregulation of urease activity, implied that the bacterial assemblage tended to be more effective in P and carbon acquisition but reduced N acquisition. Further path analysis suggested that N had direct effects on bacteria and contributed 50%–100% to the variations in bacterial diversity, whereas environmental changes such as dissolved oxygen and pH played minor roles. Overall, bacteria occurring in sediment were likely more stress-resistant to high N exposure than those occurring in seawater, possibly due to the high buffering capacity of sediment and growth tolerances of bacteria in the sediment. These findings point to the vulnerability of microbes in water systems to increasing global N loading, and that N reduction is needed to combat the loss of microbial diversity.

Three Mitochondrial Markers Reveal Genetic Diversity and Structure of Rock Carp (Procypris rabaudi) Endemic to the Upper Yangtze: Implications for Pre-release Genetic Assessment - Wenping He; Zhiling Dong; Tingting Ma; Huiguo Yan; Zhenxin Chen; Weizhi Yao; Fei Cheng (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Rock carp, Procypris rabaudi, is a vulnerable carp endemic to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and included in the National Key Protected Wildlife in 2021 as a second-class aquatic animal. Evaluating the genetic makeup of released individuals before a restocking activity is carried out is essential, and a molecular marker with simple, rapid, and universal characteristics will be helpful to the evaluation. In this study, the genetic diversity and structure of rock carp from two representative hatcheries [Yibin (YB) and Wanzhou (WZ)] and a section of the upper Yangtze [Zhuyang (ZY)] were investigated using three mtDNA markers to select one marker instead of genetic evaluation of release. The results of three mtDNA markers revealed basically the same, indicating that the level of genetic diversity in rock carp was low, and there was significant genetic differentiation between the ZY and YB. Except for Cyt b–labeled YZ (0.81) and D-loop–labeled WZ (0.59), most of the haplotypic diversity values (h) were below 0.5, the nucleotide diversity values (π) of each group were lower than 0.5 × 10-2, and the haplotype number of rock carp is 1 to 4. Among the three mtDNA markers selected, D-loop marker detected higher diversity, more haplotypes, and private haplotypes, and significant differences between the YB and WZ. The results in this study pointed out the importance of pre-release genetic evaluation and the urgency of protecting the genetic diversity of rock carp, and the D-loop marker was preferentially selected in the pre-release genetic evaluation of fish. Hatchery release is the main strategy for the recovery of rock carp populations, similar to more than 20 endemic fish species in the upper Yangtze River. This study has guiding significance for the protection and restoration of other endemic fishes in the Yangtze River by hatchery release.

D609 inhibition of phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C attenuates prolonged insulin stimulation-mediated GLUT4 downregulation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes - Jinhui Ma; Xu Zhang; Yankun Song; Yan Qin; Yinghui Tan; Lishuang Zheng; Baoqian Cheng; Xin Xi (Journal of Physiology and Biochemistry, 2022)
Glucose uptake is stimulated by insulin via stimulation of glucose transporter 4 (GLUT4) translocation to the plasma membrane from intracellular compartments in adipose tissue and muscles. Insulin stimulation for prolonged periods depletes GLUT4 protein, particularly in highly insulin-responsive GLUT4 storage vesicles. This depletion mainly occurs via H 2 O 2 -mediated retromer inhibition. However, the post-receptor mechanism of insulin activation of oxidative stress remains unknown. Here, we show that phosphatidylcholine-specific phospholipase C (PC-PLC) plays an important role in insulin-mediated downregulation of GLUT4. In the study, 3T3-L1 adipocytes were exposed to a PC-PLC inhibitor, tricyclodecan-9-yl-xanthogenate (D609), for 30 min prior to the stimulation with 500 nM insulin for 4 h, weakening the depletion of GLUT4. D609 also prevents insulin-driven H 2 O 2 generation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Exogenous PC-PLC and its product, phosphocholine (PCho), also caused GLUT4 depletion and promoted H 2 O 2 generation in 3T3-L1 adipocytes. Furthermore, insulin-mediated the increase in the cellular membrane PC-PLC activity was observed in Amplex Red assays. These results suggested that PC-PLC plays an important role in insulin-mediated downregulation of GLUT4 and that PCho may serve as a signaling molecule.

The relationship between polymorphism of insulin-like growth factor I gene and susceptibility to type 2 diabetes in Uygur population, Xinjiang, China - Tingting Wang; Gulixiati Maimaitituersun; Haonan Shi; Cheng Chen; Qi Ma; Yinxia Su; Hua Yao; Jia Zhu (Genes & Genomics, 2022)
Background Type 2 diabetes (T2DM) susceptibility varies among different populations and is affected by gene single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP). Insulin-like growth factor ( IGF )-1 gene, which has many SNP loci, is involved in T2DM pathogenesis. However, the relationship of IGF-1 gene polymorphism with T2DM in Uyghur population is less studied. Objective To investigate the relationship between T2DM susceptibility and polymorphism of IGF-1 gene in Uyghur population of Xinjiang, China. Methods This study enrolled 220 cases (122 males (55.46%) and 98 females (44.54%); mean age of 53.40 ± 10.94 years) of T2DM patients (T2DM group) and 229 (124 males (54.15%) and 105 females (45.85%); mean age of 51.64 ± 10.48 years) healthy controls (control group). Biochemical indexes were determined. IGF-1 gene polymorphism was analyzed by SNP genotyping. Results The levels of TG, HDL, LDL, BUN, and Cr were statistically significant between the T2DM group and the control group. In terms of IGF-1 polymorphism, T2DM group had higher frequency of AA genotype (OR = 2.40, 95% CI = 1.19–4.84) and allele A (OR = 1.55, 95% CI = 1.17–2.06) of rs35767 loci, suggesting that rs35767 is related to the occurrence of T2DM. A total of 5 gene interaction models was obtained through analyzing the interaction of 5 SNP loci with the GMDR method. Among them, the two-factor model that included rs35767 locus and rs5742694 locus had statistical difference with a large cross-validation consistency (10/10). The combination of GG/CC, GA/AA, AA/AA, and AA/AC genotype was in high-risk group, whereas the combination of GG/AA, GG/AC, GA/AC and GA/CC genotype was in the low-risk group. The risk of T2DM in the high-risk group was 2.165 times than that of the low-risk group (OR = 2.165, 95% CI = 1.478–3.171). Conclusion TG, HDL, LDL, BUN, and Cr are influencing factors of T2DM in Uyghur population. The rs35767 locus of IGF-1 gene may be associated with T2DM in Uyghur population. The high-risk group composing of rs35767 locus and rs5742694 locus has a higher risk of T2DM.

Potential Plasticity of Artificial Feed Preference in Juvenile Pharaoh Cuttlefish (Sepia pharaonis) Through Progressive Training Programs - Chia-Huan Ma; Chih-Hung Lin; Yung-Cheng Chang; Hung-Tai Lee; Chyng-Hwa Liou; Te-Hua Hsu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
The cuttlefish is a commercially important marine species across the world; however, due to the lack of appropriate artificial feed, there is limited future aquaculture development of the cuttlefish. We proposed a novel process comprising (1) feed preference tests and (2) progressive training programs. Through this process, artificial diets can become more suitable for pharaoh cuttlefish ( Sepia pharaonis ). Feed preference tests (based on vision, touch, and smell) revealed that pharaoh cuttlefish preferred rod-shaped feed to flat rod-shaped or ball-shaped feed, moist feed over dry feed (DF), and DF with agar coating to DF without agar coating. Without olfactory training, some cuttlefish refused to eat artificial feed and eventually died. Through progressive training programs (3- and 6-week programs), a survival rate of >80% was achieved. Although the artificial diets examined in this study resulted in a lower conversion ratio for S. pharaonis than for fresh shrimp, available artificial feed can potentially be adopted for cuttlefish aquaculture through the use of our progressive training program.

Response of root development and nutrient uptake of two chinese cultivars of hybrid rice to nitrogen and phosphorus fertilization in Sichuan Province, China - Guotao Yang; Farhan Nabi; Sumbal Sajid; Abdul Rasheed Kaleri; Ali Murad Jakhar; Liang Cheng; Martin Raspor; Noor Muhammad; Jun Ma; Yungao Hu (Molecular Biology Reports, 2021)
Background Chemical fertilization helped modern agriculture in grain yield improvement to ensure food security. The response of chemical fertilization for higher hybrid rice production is highly dependent on optimal fertilization management in paddy fields. To assess such responses, in the current work we examine the yield, root growth, and expression of related genes responsible for stress metabolism of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P) in two hybrid-rice cultivars Deyou4727 (D47) and Yixiangyou2115 (Y21). Methods and results The experiment followed four nitrogen (N) (N 0 , N 60 , N 120, and N 180 kg/ha) and phosphorus (P) (P 0 , P 60 , P 90 , and P 120 kg/ha) fertilizer levels. The grain yield in D47 was more sensitive to nitrogen application, while Y21 was more sensitive to phosphorus application, which resulted in comparatively higher biomass and yield. Our findings were corroborated by gene expression studies of glutamine synthetase OsGS1;1 and OsGS1;2 and phosphate starvation-related genes PHR1 and SPX , confirming sensitivity to N and P application. The number of roots was less sensitive to nitrogen application in D47 between N 0 and N 60 , but the overall nutrient response difference was significantly higher due to the deep rooting system as compared to Y21. Conclusions The higher yield, high N and P use efficiency, and versatile root growth of D47 make it suitable to reduce unproductive usage of N and P from paddy fields, improving hybrid rice productivity, and environmental safety in the Sichuan basin area of China.

Co-editing PINK1 and DJ-1 Genes Via Adeno-Associated Virus-Delivered CRISPR/Cas9 System in Adult Monkey Brain Elicits Classical Parkinsonian Phenotype - Hao Li; Shihao Wu; Xia Ma; Xiao Li; Tianlin Cheng; Zhifang Chen; Jing Wu; Longbao Lv; Ling Li; Liqi Xu; Wenchao Wang; Yingzhou Hu; et al. (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2021)
Whether direct manipulation of Parkinson’s disease (PD) risk genes in the adult monkey brain can elicit a Parkinsonian phenotype remains an unsolved issue. Here, we used an adeno-associated virus serotype 9 (AAV9)-delivered CRISPR/Cas9 system to directly co-edit PINK1 and DJ-1 genes in the substantia nigras (SNs) of two monkey groups: an old group and a middle-aged group. After the operation, the old group exhibited all the classic PD symptoms, including bradykinesia, tremor, and postural instability, accompanied by key pathological hallmarks of PD, such as severe nigral dopaminergic neuron loss (>64%) and evident α-synuclein pathology in the gene-edited SN. In contrast, the phenotype of their middle-aged counterparts, which also showed clear PD symptoms and pathological hallmarks, were less severe. In addition to the higher final total PD scores and more severe pathological changes, the old group were also more susceptible to gene editing by showing a faster process of PD progression. These results suggested that both genetic and aging factors played important roles in the development of PD in the monkeys. Taken together, this system can effectively develop a large number of genetically-edited PD monkeys in a short time (6–10 months), and thus provides a practical transgenic monkey model for future PD studies.

In a nuclear emergency, the application of in situ spectrometers for monitoring environmental radioactivity is significantly important, as information on the type and activity of radionuclides released from the accident can be obtained quickly. However, in emergency environmental radiological monitoring, a balance between energy resolution and detecting efficiency must be considered in selecting an appropriate detector. In this study, in situ gamma spectrometry was conducted with the LaBr3 detector to determine the radioactivity of seawater at the discharging outlet of a coastal nuclear power plant in southeast China. The results show that the LaBr3 scintillator has excellent energy resolution and detection efficiency, making it a promising detector for emergency monitoring.
