Ecological divergence due to habitat difference plays a prominent role in the formation of new species, but the genetic architecture during ecological speciation and the mechanism underlying phenotypic divergence remain less understood. Two wild ancestors of rice ( Oryza rufipogon and Oryza nivara ) are a progenitor‐derivative species pair with ecological divergence and provide a unique system for studying ecological adaptation/speciation. Here, we constructed a high‐resolution linkage map and conducted a quantitative trait locus (QTL) analysis of 19 phenotypic traits using an F 2 population generated from a cross between the two Oryza species. We identified 113 QTLs associated with interspecific divergence of 16 quantitative traits, with effect sizes ranging from 1.61% to 34.1% in terms of the percentage of variation explained (PVE). The distribution of effect sizes of QTLs followed a negative exponential, suggesting that a few genes of large effect and many genes of small effect were responsible for the phenotypic divergence. We observed 18 clusters of QTLs (QTL hotspots) on 11 chromosomes, significantly more than that expected by chance, demonstrating the importance of coinheritance of loci/genes in ecological adaptation/speciation. Analysis of effect direction and v ‐test statistics revealed that interspecific differentiation of most traits was driven by divergent natural selection, supporting the argument that ecological adaptation/speciation would proceed rapidly under coordinated selection on multiple traits. Our findings provide new insights into the understanding of genetic architecture of ecological adaptation and speciation in plants and help effective manipulation of specific genes or gene cluster in rice breeding.

This study aimed to investigate the growth and spawning characteristics of wild Channa lucius (Cuvier, 1831) populations in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam. The study was carried out from March 2011 to February 2012. The length–weight relationship of C. lucius was determined according to the equations W = 0.0044 L 3.2494 , R 2 = 0.9157 (female fish) and W = 0.0047 L 3.2178 , R 2 = 0.9434 (male fish). The length and weight of the body for female fish ranged from 16.3 to 36.0 cm and 49.0 to 550.0 g, and for male fish, from 14.6 to 38.2 cm and 46.0 to 639.0 g, respectively. Female and male fish had almost similar lengths at first maturity (21.3958 cm for females and 21.3952 cm for males). The condition factor of female fish ranged from 0.842 to 0.864 and for male fish ranged from 0.848 to 0.874. The gonadosomatic index of female fish was highest in June (1.68%) and lowest in November (0.69%); that of male fish was highest in June (0.53%) and lowest in September (0.15%). The sexual maturity rate (SMR) of female fish peaked in May, with SMRs of 33.3% (stage III) and 58.3% (stage IV). In conclusion, C. lucius has a positive allometric range ( b > 3), reaching sexual maturity when its length reaches 21.39 cm for both sexes, and the spawning season begins in December but peaks in May and June.

Development of a droplet digital PCR assay for the sensitive detection of iridovirus in Andrias davidianus - Yan Meng; Nan Jiang; Yixing Xie; Ying Wei; Cheng Wang; Mingzhu Tian; Mingyang Xue; Chen Xu; Yiqun Li; Wenzhi Liu; Yuding Fan; Yong Zhou (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2023)
Chinese giant salamander iridovirus (GSIV) is the first known and causative viral pathogen in Andrias davidianus . Developing a sensitive, accurate and specific assay to detect GSIV in samples is essential to prevent the further spread of the pathogen. In this study, we established a droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) assay that targeted the mcp gene of GSIV, enabling rapid and quantitative detection of the virus. We determined that the optimal annealing temperature, primer concentration and probe concentration were 57.1°C, 50 nM and 500 nM, respectively. We analysed the specificity and sensitivity of the ddPCR assay and found that five common aquatic animal viruses, including Cyprinid herpesvirus 2 (CyHV‐2), infectious spleen and kidney necrosis virus (ISKNV), Koi herpesvirus (KHV) and Carp Edema Virus (CEV) displayed negative results based on this GSIV ddPCR assay. The assay can detect GSIV with the lowest detection limit of 3.7 copies per reaction. To evaluate the sensitivity and accuracy of the ddPCR assay, we tested different infected tissue samples with both the ddPCR and TaqMan real‐time PCR assays. Our results showed that the ddPCR assay detected GSIV in all samples with 100% positivity, while the TaqMan real‐time PCR assay detected GSIV in only 82.1% of samples. The established ddPCR method provided several advantages in detecting GISV, including high sensitivity, high precision and absolute quantification, making it a powerful tool for detection of possible and potential GSIV infection, even in samples with low viral load.

Emerging technologies for advancing microalgal photosynthesis and metabolism toward sustainable production - Jingyan Hu; Weizhao Meng; Yixi Su; Cheng Qian; Weiqi Fu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Microalgae are unicellular photosynthetic microorganisms that play a vital role in primary production and have diverse applications in various industries. They have high photosynthetic and metabolic capacities and can produce a variety of valuable metabolites, such as lipids, carbohydrates, pigments, and proteins. However, practical applications of microalgae are limited to high-value products due to the high production costs. Algal biotechnology faces challenges such as low energy utilization efficiency and product yield that are currently inadequate to fulfill commercial production. To overcome these challenges, emerging technologies have shown promise to achieve higher production efficiency, including molecular manipulation of photosynthetic efficiency and metabolic activities. Here, we provided an overview of the importance, diversity, and photosynthesis of microalgae, as well as strategies for enhancing their photosynthetic efficiency. We discussed various approaches for improving microalgal photosynthesis, including strain selection and optimization, rational genetic modification, and innovative technologies such as spectral recomposition of light, nanomaterials, advanced cultivation systems, and symbiotic systems. Additionally, we summarized metabolic engineering strategies that focus on optimizing the synthesis of value-added metabolites, such as pigments, long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids, starch, proteins, and hydrogen in microalgae. By concentrating on improving photosynthetic efficiency and the synthesis of bioactive metabolites, this review provided valuable insights into enhancing microalgae production yields. Overcoming limitations in microalgae production costs can lead to broader applications in various industries. Furthermore, we highlight the potential of these strategies in increasing the efficiency of microalgae as a sustainable source for high-value products.

Activation of Cannabinoid Receptor 1 in GABAergic Neurons in the Rostral Anterior Insular Cortex Contributes to the Analgesia Following Common Peroneal Nerve Ligation - Ming Zhang; Cong Li; Qian Xue; Chang-Bo Lu; Huan Zhao; Fan-Cheng Meng; Ying Zhang; Sheng-Xi Wu; Yan Zhang; Hui Xu (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2023)
The rostral agranular insular cortex (RAIC) has been associated with pain modulation. Although the endogenous cannabinoid system (eCB) has been shown to regulate chronic pain, the roles of eCBs in the RAIC remain elusive under the neuropathic pain state. Neuropathic pain was induced in C57BL/6 mice by common peroneal nerve (CPN) ligation. The roles of the eCB were tested in the RAIC of ligated CPN C57BL/6J mice, glutamatergic, or GABAergic neuron cannabinoid receptor 1 (CB1R) knockdown mice with the whole-cell patch-clamp and pain behavioral methods. The E/I ratio (amplitude ratio between mEPSCs and mIPSCs) was significantly increased in layer V pyramidal neurons of the RAIC in CPN-ligated mice. Depolarization-induced suppression of inhibition but not depolarization-induced suppression of excitation in RAIC layer V pyramidal neurons were significantly increased in CPN-ligated mice. The analgesic effect of ACEA (a CB1R agonist) was alleviated along with bilateral dorsolateral funiculus lesions, with the administration of AM251 (a CB1R antagonist), and in CB1R knockdown mice in GABAergic neurons, but not glutamatergic neurons of the RAIC. Our results suggest that CB1R activation reinforces the function of the descending pain inhibitory pathway via reducing the inhibition of glutamatergic layer V neurons by GABAergic neurons in the RAIC to induce an analgesic effect in neuropathic pain.

Study on the association of the microstructure and bone metabolism in the osteoporotic femoral head - Cheng Wang; Peng Wang; Feng Li; Yang Li; Minwei Zhao; Hui Feng; Haoye Meng; Junyang Li; Peng Shi; Jiang Peng; Hua Tian (Molecular Biology Reports, 2023)
Background We compared the bone microstructure and metabolism of the femoral heads in patients with osteoporosis (OP) and non-OP patients to investigate the pathologic mechanism of OP and guide clinical treatment. Methods and results From January 2020 to June 2021, we obtained femoral head samples from 30 patients undergoing hip replacement due to femoral neck fracture. All patients were women aged approximately 67 to 80 years (mean age, 74 years). According to the dual-energy X-ray results, the femoral head samples were divided into the OP (T< − 2.5) and non-OP (T > − 1.5) groups. Microcomputed tomography scanning, bone metrology analysis, hematoxylin and eosin staining, and Masson’s trichrome staining were used to compare the local bone trabecular microstructure changes. Quantitative reverse transcription PCR was performed to identify changes in the osteogenesis-related genes and the osteoclast-related genes in specific regions to reflect osteogenic and osteoclastic activities. Femoral heads with OP showed significant changes in the local bone microstructure. Bone density, bone volume fraction, and the number and thickness of the bone trabeculae decreased. Local bone metabolism was imbalanced in the areas with microstructural changes in femoral heads with OP, with increased osteoclast activity and decreased osteoblast activity. Conclusions Deterioration of bone microstructure is closely related to abnormal bone metabolism associated with the activity of osteoblasts and osteoclasts in osteoporotic femoral heads. Promoting bone formation by improving local bone metabolism, enhancing osteogenic activity and inhibiting osteoclast activity may be a promising way of preventing local OP and osteoporotic fractures.

Recent Progress in Atmospheric Chemistry Research in China: Establishing a Theoretical Framework for the “Air Pollution Complex” - Tong Zhu; Mingjin Tang; Meng Gao; Xinhui Bi; Junji Cao; Huizheng Che; Jianmin Chen; Aijun Ding; Pingqing Fu; Jian Gao; Yang Gao; Maofa Ge; et al. (Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2023)
Atmospheric chemistry research has been growing rapidly in China in the last 25 years since the concept of the “air pollution complex” was first proposed by Professor Xiaoyan TANG in 1997. For papers published in 2021 on air pollution (only papers included in the Web of Science Core Collection database were considered), more than 24 000 papers were authored or co-authored by scientists working in China. In this paper, we review a limited number of representative and significant studies on atmospheric chemistry in China in the last few years, including studies on (1) sources and emission inventories, (2) atmospheric chemical processes, (3) interactions of air pollution with meteorology, weather and climate, (4) interactions between the biosphere and atmosphere, and (5) data assimilation. The intention was not to provide a complete review of all progress made in the last few years, but rather to serve as a starting point for learning more about atmospheric chemistry research in China. The advances reviewed in this paper have enabled a theoretical framework for the air pollution complex to be established, provided robust scientific support to highly successful air pollution control policies in China, and created great opportunities in education, training, and career development for many graduate students and young scientists. This paper further highlights that developing and low-income countries that are heavily affected by air pollution can benefit from these research advances, whilst at the same time acknowledging that many challenges and opportunities still remain in atmospheric chemistry research in China, to hopefully be addressed over the next few decades.

The dynamic response characteristics of a two-dimensional submerged floating tunnel (SFT) under random and freak waves were investigated in the present study. The results demonstrate that (1) the dynamic responses of the SFT under the freak wave are significantly larger than those under the largest wave in the wave train excluding the freak wave, particularly for the motion response. The maximum values of the motion responses induced by the freak wave were several times larger than those induced by the largest wave in the wave train excluding the freak wave, far exceeding the proportion of the corresponding wave height. (2) The freak wave parameter α1 has a significant effect on the amplification coefficients of surge, heave and pitch; all increase nonlinearly as α1 increases. Within α1 = 1.90~2.59, the amplification coefficients of the surge, heave and pitch vary in the ranges of 1.91~6.46, 1.53~3.87 and 1.73~5.32, respectively. (3) Amplification coefficients of tension increase almost linearly as α1 increases. Additionally, the amplification effect of the freak wave on the mooring tension is much smaller than that on motion responses. Within α1 = 1.90~2.59, the amplification coefficients of tension vary from 1.15 to 1.35. (4) Generalised amplification coefficients of motion responses increase as α1 increases and are all greater than 1.0, indicating that growth rates for motion responses under the freak wave exceed the growth rates for maximum wave height. Moreover, motion responses show a significantly nonlinear growth as maximum wave height increases. The generalised amplification coefficients of the mooring tension decrease as α1 increases, and are all less than 1.0, indicating that the dynamic amplification effect of the freak wave on the mooring tension is much smaller than that on motions. On the other hand, growth rates of the mooring tension under freak waves are smaller than the linear growth rate of the height of freak waves.

Experimental Study of the Hydrodynamic Characteristics of a Submerged Floating Tunnel under Freak Wave (II: Time-Frequency Domain Study) - Wenbo Pan; Cheng Cui; Meng He (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
A freak wave is a spike in a random wave series and hence the local characteristics in the time-domain are of key importance. When freak waves act on moored floating structures, the dynamic responses of the structures in the time and frequency domains change interdependently in a short period of time. It is difficult to comprehensively and accurately describe this physical process using a single-dimensional analysis method, such as time-domain statistical analysis or frequency-domain spectral analysis. The wavelet analysis method, which can simultaneously provide the time-domain and frequency-domain joint information of the physical process, is used to discuss the time-frequency joint variation characteristics of the dynamic responses of a two-dimensional submerged floating tunnel under a freak wave. The time-frequency characteristics of the dynamic responses induced by the freak wave and the differences from the action under random waves are investigated, with a particular emphasis on the ‘convex variation’ characteristics of the dynamic responses under a freak wave. The results show that: (1) The wavelet analysis method can effectively describe the basic characteristics of the dynamic responses of the SFT under a freak wave and clearly distinguish the differences in dynamic responses under freak and random waves. (2) Freak waves have dynamic amplification effects, which are related to the freak wave parameter α1, on a two-dimensional SFT. Following the action of freak waves on a two-dimensional SFT, significant energy concentration occurs in the time-frequency spectrum of the dynamic response in a certain time and frequency range. The degree of energy concentration increases nonlinearly with an increase in α1, and a certain high-frequency energy appears in the time-frequency spectrum of the motion response. The maximum values of the time-frequency spectra of the dynamic responses under a freak wave are much larger than those under a random wave with the identical wave spectrum. (3) Following the action of a freak wave on a two-dimensional SFT, the generalised energy spectra of surge, heave, pitch, and mooring tensions have convex peak values, which occur simultaneous with the occurrence of the freak wave, and the convex parts significantly increase as α1. (4) The time lengths of the influence of a freak wave on the dynamic responses exceeded the freak wave period. With an increase in α1, the time ranges of the large values of the time-frequency spectra of surge, heave, pitch, and mooring tensions increase nearly linearly.
