Genotype‐by‐Environment Effects of Cis ‐Variations in the Atgl Promoter Mediate the Divergent Pattern of Phenotypic Plasticity for Temperature Adaptation in Two Congeneric Oyster Species - Mingyang Du; Chaogang Wang; Zhuxiang Jiang; Rihao Cong; Ao Li; Wei Wang; Guofan Zhang; Li Li (Molecular Ecology, 2025)
Phenotypic plasticity plays an essential role in adaptive evolution. However, the molecular mechanisms of how genotype‐by‐environment interaction (G × E) effects shape phenotypic plasticity in marine organisms remain poorly understood. The crucial temperature‐responsive trait triacylglycerol (TAG) content and its major gene adipose triglyceride lipase ( Atgl ) expression have divergent plastic patterns in two congeneric oyster species ( Crassostrea gigas and Crassostrea angulata ) to adapt to relative‐cold/northern and relative‐warm/southern habitats, respectively. In this study, eight putative loci were identified in the Atgl promoter region ( cis ‐variations) between wild C. gigas and C. angulata that exhibited differential environmental responsiveness (G × E). The G and G × E effects of each locus were further dissected by measuring the Atgl gene expression of different genotypes in response to temperature changes at the cellular and organismal levels. Two transcription factors, non‐environmentally responsive non‐POU domain‐containing octamer‐binding protein ( Nono ) and environmentally responsive heterogeneous nuclear ribonucleoprotein K ( Hnrnpk ), were screened for binding to g.‐1804 (G locus) and g.‐1919 (G + G × E locus), respectively. The specificity of Nono binding to the C. angulata allele mediated the G effects of g.‐1804, and the lower environmental sensitivity of Hnrnpk in C. angulata mediated the G × E effects of g.‐1919, jointly regulating the trade‐offs between higher constitutive and lower plastic expression of Atgl gene expression in C. angulata . This study served as an experimental case to reveal how the genetic variations with G and (or) G × E effects propagate into the divergent pattern of plasticity in environmental adaptive traits, which provides new insights into predicting the adaptability of marine organisms to future climate changes.

Modeling Ocean Wave Conditions at a Shallow Coast Under Scarce Data Availability: A Case Study in the Mekong Delta, Vietnam - Hoang Thai Duong Vu; Moritz Zemann; Roderick van der Linden; Trinh Cong Dan; Peter Oberle; Frank Seidel; Nguyet Minh Nguyen; Le Xuan Tu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2025)
In the presented work, design conditions for breakwaters were derived from offshore climate reanalysis data (ERA5), which were downscaled to the nearshore by two numerical approaches, i.e., SwanOne and Delft3D, for different average and extreme wave and weather conditions. Model validation was performed using in situ measurements. The advantages and disadvantages of both numerical approaches were investigated. Both models showed sufficient accuracy according to measurements in the field, where SwanOne offers a simple and fast calculation method, while Delft3D provides a more complete representation, not only of waves but also current dynamics. However, it requires a much broader amount of input parameters and more complex boundary conditions. Then, SwanOne was applicable to calculate nearshore wave characteristics based on the input parameters extracted from the statistical analysis of long-term ERA5 data. Based on this process, design wave heights and periods at the nearshore were determined for 10- to 100-year return periods. For breakwater design on the west coast of the Mekong Delta, maximum wave heights in a range of 1.1 m to 1.3 m at a distance of 100 m to 300 m could be determined for a return period of 20 years, corresponding to water depths of 2.33 m and 2.88 m, respectively.

LFN-YOLO: precision underwater small object detection via a lightweight reparameterized approach - Mingxin Liu; Yujie Wu; Ruixin Li; Cong Lin (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2025)
Underwater object detection plays a significant role in fisheries resource assessment and ecological environment protection. However, traditional underwater object detection methods struggle to achieve accurate detection in complex underwater environments with limited computational resources. This paper proposes a lightweight underwater object detection network called LightFusionNet-YOLO (LFN-YOLO). First, we introduce the reparameterization technique RepGhost to reduce the number of parameters while enhancing training and inference efficiency. This approach effectively minimizes precision loss even with a lightweight backbone network. Then, we replaced the standard depthwise convolution in the feature extraction network with SPD-Conv, which includes an additional pooling layer to mitigate detail loss. This modification effectively enhances the detection performance for small objects. Furthermore, We employed the Generalized Feature Pyramid Network (GFPN) for feature fusion in the network's neck, enhancing the network's adaptability to features of varying scales. Finally, we design a new detection head, CLLAHead, which reduces computational costs and strengthens the robustness of the model through cross-layer local attention. At the same time, the DFL loss function is introduced to reduce regression and classification errors. Experiments conducted on public datasets, including URPC, Brackish, and TrashCan, showed that the mAP@0.5 reached 74.1%, 97.5%, and 66.2%, respectively, with parameter sizes and computational complexities of 2.7M and 7.2 GFLOPs, and the model size is only 5.9 Mb. Compared to mainstream vision models, our model demonstrates superior performance. Additionally, deployment on the NVIDIA Jetson AGX Orin edge computing device confirms its high real-time performance and suitability for underwater applications, further showcasing the exceptional capabilities of LFN-YOLO.

Climatological Annual Mean and Seasonal Variations in Spatial Energy Spectra of Satellite-Observed Sea-Surface Chlorophyll-a Concentration in the East China Sea - Bo Huang; Yanzhen Gu; Cong Liu; Fangguo Zhai; Shuangyan He; Dan Song; Peiliang Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2025)
The hourly L2-level chlorophyll-a (CHL-a) concentration spatial energy spectra of GOCI-II from 2021 to 2023 are employed to investigate the characteristics of the CHL-a spatial energy spectrum slopes in three regions of the East China Sea, namely nearshore, offshore, and open ocean. The seasonal trends of the spatial energy spectrum slopes are also examined for the nearshore and offshore regions. It is observed that the slopes of the CHL-a spatial energy spectrum are −2 at scales larger than 5 km, whereas at smaller scales, they are −5/3, −1, and −0.3 from the nearshore region to the open sea, respectively. On the larger scales, the spatial energy spectrum slopes are consistent with surface quasi-geostrophic (sQG) theory, but this is not the case on smaller scales. An insufficient regional CHL-a concentration leads to a flattening of the slope at the smaller scales. On the submesoscale, the slope of the nearshore CHL-a concentration spatial energy spectrum is steeper in summer and flatter in winter, a pattern that contrasts with changes observed offshore. This seasonal variation is attributed to the southward flow of ZheMin Coastal Current (ZMCC) during winter, which carries freshwater and enhances the horizontal buoyancy gradient in the nearshore region.

Characteristics, source analysis, and risk assessment of organochlorine pesticide contamination in nearshore surface sediments of a tropical tourist island - Hongbing Wang; Lin Zhang; Feng Yang; Li Yan; Cong Lin; Cheng Shen (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2025)
Surface sediment samples were collected from the surrounding waters of the two largest tourist islands in Sanya, China, to compare and evaluate the sources, distribution, and ecological risks of 21 organochlorine pesticides (OCPs). The total concentration of OCPs ranged from 1.35 to 5.0 ng/g. Among the OCPs, ΣDDTs accounted for the largest proportion, followed by ΣHCHs. The concentrations of HCHs and DDTs from the west side of West Island were significantly higher than those from the east side, and fine-grained sediments exhibited a stronger adsorption effect on OCPs. Source analysis indicated that the area experienced new inputs of HCH pollutants, while historical residues of HCHs remained high. Residual OCPs are still widely present in the environment, transported mainly by river runoff, with a smaller portion originating from atmospheric deposition and ship paints. Ecological risk assessment results showed that factors occasionally causing adverse biological effects include Heptachlor epoxide, 4,4'-DDE, ΣDDT, Dieldrin, Endrin, and γ-HCH, while other factors rarely caused negative biological effects. Potential ecological effect evaluations indicated that stations SY03, SY04, SY06, and SY09 were classified as having moderate ecological effect levels, while other stations were classified as having no ecological effects. Strengthened investigation, monitoring, and control of pollutant sources in ecologically impacted areas are necessary. This study fills a data gap for the region and provides an academic foundation for environmental protection and the sustainable development of tourism resources.

Genomic determinants of biological age estimated by deep learning applied to retinal images - Yu Huang; Mohammad Ghouse Syed; Ruiye Chen; Cong Li; Xianwen Shang; Wei Wang; Xueli Zhang; Xiayin Zhang; Shulin Tang; Jing Liu; Shunming Liu; Sundar Srinivasan; et al. (GeroScience, 2025)
With the development of deep learning (DL) techniques, there has been a successful application of this approach to determine biological age from latent information contained in retinal images. Retinal age gap (RAG) defined as the difference between chronological age and predicted retinal age has been established previously to predict the age-related disease. In this study, we performed discovery genome-wide association analysis (GWAS) on the RAG using the 31,271 UK Biobank participants and replicated our findings in 8034 GoDARTS participants. The genetic correlation between RAGs predicted from the two cohorts was 0.67 ( P = 0.021). After meta-analysis, we found 13 RAG loci which might be related to retinal vessel density and other aging processes. The SNP-wide heritability ( h 2 ) of RAG was 0.15. Meanwhile, by performing Mendelian randomization analysis, we found that glycated hemoglobin, inflammation hemocytes, and anemia might be associated with accelerated retinal aging. Our study explored the biological implications and molecular-level mechanism of RAG, which might enable causal inference of the aging process as well as provide potential pharmaceutical intervention targets for further treatment. Graphical Abstract

A deep learning method for bias correction of wind field in the South China Sea - Cong Pang; Tao Song; Handan Sun; Xin Li; Danya Xu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2025)
To address the systematic bias in the Global Forecast System (GFS) wind field forecasts, we utilize deep learning techniques. The developed MU - Diffusion framework, based on a diffusion model and MultiUnet (a multitasking Unet model), establishes a nonlinear relationship between GFS and the fifth-generation EC atmospheric reanalysis (ERA5) data. Focusing on the South China Sea region, this method corrects both wind speed and direction simultaneously. Using 2022 GFS data, we achieved average enhancements of 42% in wind speed and 38.3% in wind direction compared to the initial GFS data. Tests in typhoon conditions also confirm the excellent performance of this architecture.

Unveiling the genetic architecture of barley embryo: QTL mapping, candidate genes identification and its relationship with kernel size and early vigour - Xiaoxia Chen; Zhouyang Su; Yunpu Zheng; Cong Li; Jun Ma; Jian Ma; Fusun Shi; Haiyan Hu; Chunji Liu; Zhi Zheng (Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2025)
Keymessage In this first QTL mapping study of embryo size in barley, novel and stable QTL were identified and candidate genes underlying a significant locus independent of kernel size were identified based on orthologous analysis and comparison of the whole-genome assemblies for both parental genotypes of the mapping population. Embryo, also known as germ, in cereal grains plays a crucial role in plant development. The embryo accounts for only a small portion of grain weight but it is rich in nutrients. Larger embryo translates to a more nutritious grain and larger store of energy reserves, which can benefit seed germination and seedling establishment. However, reports on quantitative trait loci (QTL) affecting embryo size in barley is rare. To understand the genetic basis of embryo size in barley, a population consisting of 201 F9 recombination inbred lines (RILs) was assessed in four environments. Three regions affecting various characteristics of embryo size including embryo length (EL), embryo width (EW) and embryo area (EA) were consistently identified. They located on chromosomes 2H, 4H and 7H, respectively. Among them, the QTL on 7H was not significantly affected by kernel size. Phenotypic variances explained by this QTL for EL, EW and EA were 11.8%, 9.3% and 12.7%, respectively. Taken advantage of the available genomic assemblies of the two parental genotypes, candidate genes for this locus on 7H were identified. In addition, significant correlations between embryo size and early vigour and kernel traits were detected. To our knowledge, the present study is for the first time reporting QTL conferring embryo size by directly measuring the characteristics as quantitative trait in barley, which would broaden our understanding of the genetic basis of barley embryo size and offer valuable targets for future breeding programmes.

High‐frequency dynamics of bottom dissolved oxygen in temperate shelf seas: The joint role of tidal mixing and sediment oxygen demand - Wenfan Wu; Changyuan Song; Yicheng Chen; Fangguo Zhai; Zizhou Liu; Cong Liu; Yanzhen Gu; Peiliang Li (Limnology and Oceanography, 2025)
Dissolved oxygen (DO) in the bottom layer is essential for benthic organisms, and its temporal variations are widely concerned. However, previous studies have primarily focused on the long‐term variations of bottom DO, leaving its high‐frequency (HF) dynamics inadequately understood. This study addresses this gap by utilizing two seafloor monitoring systems that provide 3‐year‐long HF records in a typical temperate shelf sea, the Bohai Sea, China. During the stratified period each year, bottom DO exhibits notable HF fluctuations superimposed on its seasonal cycle. These HF signals originate from tide‐induced vertical mixing, showing peaks at various tidal frequencies. Notably, significant shallow‐water tidal signals are observed in bottom DO due to the frequency doubling of semi‐diurnal and diurnal tidal currents. Moreover, bottom DO demonstrates strongly asymmetric responses to tidal mixing on HF time scales. To be specific, the bottom DO increases with the intensity of tidal mixing, with this process being exceptionally rapid under conditions of weak tidal mixing. The underlying cause of this asymmetry is the markedly stronger vertical DO gradient near the seabed due to sediment oxygen demand. A process‐oriented biological model successfully reproduced observational features, further supporting our theoretical inference. These findings highlight the joint role of tidal mixing and sediment oxygen demand in modulating the HF dynamics of bottom DO in temperate shelf seas, underscoring their significance for the refined prediction of bottom DO in the future.

Effects of Vibratory Stress Relief on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Marine Welded Structures - Liqiang Gao; Qinan Yao; Yuchen Yang; Dejian Sun; Guanhua Xu; Bangping Gu; Cong Yang; Shuaizhen Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2024)
Dissimilar steel welded structures are commonly used in the marine engineering field. Owing to the scarcity of in-depth investigation into the intricate pattern of residual stress distribution in welding within 316L/Q345 dissimilar steel welded joints and methods for reducing this stress, a platform-based vibratory stress relief (VSR) experimental system was established to comprehensively study the effects of VSR on the mechanical properties and microstructure of 316L/Q345 welded structures. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) was used to examine the fracture morphology and explore the intrinsic mechanisms by which VSR enhances the mechanical properties of welded joints. The findings suggest that VSR is capable of significantly homogenizing and diminishing the welding residual stress within the heat-affected area of 316L/Q345 mismatched steel welded specimens. The significant reduction in residual stress after VSR can primarily be attributed to the combination of alternating stress applied by the VSR platform and the welding residual stress, which exceeded the yield limit of the metal materials. Furthermore, the significant reduction in residual stress, refinement of second-phase particles, and changes in fracture mechanisms are the main reasons for the increased strength observed after VSR. This study has significant engineering application value, providing a theoretical basis for the use of VSR treatment to enhance the reliability of the safe operation of marine engineering equipment.

Habitat changes of a small endemic euryhaline fish species in the northern margin of the South China Sea under the background of global warming - Jian Liao; Hao Chen; Jia-Yu Li; Gao-Cong Li; Xian Guan; Cai-Feng Liang; Yu-Song Guo; Zhong-Dian Dong; Zhong-Duo Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2024)
Hainan medaka ( Oryzias curvinotus ) is a small euryhaline fish species native to the northern margin of the South China Sea. Our long-term field observations indicate a concerning decline in its wild resources. Climate change, an uncontrollable factor, has altered the species’ distribution pattern. In this study, we simulated the shifts in the species range of O. curvinotus during the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), current, and the next one hundred year, and analyzed its habitat attributes. The results demonstrate that bio2 (mean diurnal range of temperature) is a crucial factor in shaping the species range of O. curvinotus . The simulation results reveal that the current habitats are located in the coastal areas of northern Vietnam, the northeastern Hainan Province, the coastal areas of Guangdong Province and Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region, and a few areas in Taiwan Province of China, covering a total area of 17.82×10 4 km 2 . Highly suitable habitats are mainly concentrated in the coastal areas of Hai Phong, Nam Dinh, and Thanh Hoa in northern Vietnam, the central part of Leizhou Peninsula, and the west coast of the Pearl River Estuary. For the tropical species Hainan medaka, the impact of the LGM was relatively minor, and there were extensive suitable habitats during historical times, including three refugia. Currently, only Refugium 2 near Guanghai Town, Taishan County, Jiangmen City, Guangdong Province in China remains, while the other two refugia have submerged below sea level. Future climate warming under different carbon emission levels is projected to cause a short-term expansion, followed by a relief in expansion. By 2100, the potential habitat area of O. curvinotus is slightly larger than the current scenario. It is noteworthy that under future climate warming scenarios, the highly suitable habitats will not migrate northward but will expand near the 21°N latitude. Overall, Hainan medaka is not expected to be threatened in the future. Our study provides long-term dynamic distribution data, which provides a theoretical basis for the long-term development and conservation management of Hainan medaka.
