On the Diurnal Cycle of Heavy Rainfall over the Sichuan Basin during 10–18 August 2020 - Rudi Xia; Yali Luo; Da-Lin Zhang; Mingxin Li; Xinghua Bao; Jisong Sun (Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2021)
A sustained heavy rainfall event occurred over the Sichuan basin in southwest China during 10–18 August 2020, showing pronounced diurnal rainfall variations with nighttime peak and afternoon minimum values, except on the first day. Results show that the westward extension of the anomalously strong western Pacific subtropical high was conducive to the maintenance of a southerly low-level jet (LLJ) in and to the southeast of the basin, which favored continuous water vapor transport and abnormally high precipitable water in the basin. The diurnal cycle of rainfall over the basin was closely related to the periodic oscillation of the LLJ in both wind speed and direction that was caused by the combination of inertial oscillation and terrain thermal forcing. The nocturnally enhanced rainfall was produced by moist convection mostly initiated during the evening hours over the southwest part of the basin where high convective available potential energy with moister near-surface moist air was present. The convective initiation took place as cold air from either previous precipitating clouds from the western Sichuan Plateau or a larger-scale northerly flow met a warm and humid current from the south. It was the slantwise lifting of the warm, moist airflow above the cold air, often facilitated by southwest vortices and quasi-geostrophic ascent, that released the convective instability and produced heavy rainfall.

Global exposure of population and land‐use to meteorological droughts under different warming levels and SSPs : A CORDEX ‐based study - Jonathan Spinoni; Paulo Barbosa; Edoardo Bucchignani; John Cassano; Tereza Cavazos; Alessandro Cescatti; Jens H. Christensen; Ole B. Christensen; Erika Coppola; Jason P. Evans; Giovanni Forzieri; Beate Geyer; et al. (International Journal of Climatology, 2021)
Global warming is likely to cause a progressive drought increase in some regions, but how population and natural resources will be affected is still underexplored. This study focuses on global population, forests, croplands and pastures exposure to meteorological drought hazard in the 21st century, expressed as frequency and severity of drought events. As input, we use a large ensemble of climate simulations from the Coordinated Regional Climate Downscaling Experiment (CORDEX), population projections from the NASA‐SEDAC dataset and land‐use projections from the Land‐Use Harmonization 2 project for 1981–2100. The exposure to drought hazard is presented for five Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSP1‐SSP5) at four Global Warming Levels (GWLs: 1.5°C to 4°C). Results show that considering only Standardized Precipitation Index (SPI; based on precipitation), the SSP3 at GWL4 projects the largest fraction of the global population (14%) to experience an increase in drought frequency and severity (versus 1981–2010), with this value increasing to 60% if temperature is considered (indirectly included in the Standardized Precipitation‐Evapotranspiration Index, SPEI). With SPEI, considering the highest GWL for each SSP, 8 (for SSP2, SSP4, SSP5) and 11 (SSP3) billion people, that is, more than 90%, will be affected by at least one unprecedented drought. For SSP5 at GWL4, approximately 2 × 10 6 km 2 of forests and croplands (respectively, 6% and 11%) and 1.5 × 10 6 km 2 of pastures (19%) will be exposed to increased drought frequency and severity according to SPI, but for SPEI this extent will rise to 17 × 10 6 km 2 of forests (49%), 6 × 10 6 km 2 of pastures (78%) and 12 × 10 6 km 2 of croplands (67%), being mid‐latitudes the most affected. The projected likely increase of drought frequency and severity significantly increases population and land‐use exposure to drought, even at low GWLs, thus extensive mitigation and adaptation efforts are needed to avoid the most severe impacts of climate change.

Conservation resource allocation, small population resiliency, and the fallacy of conservation triage - David A. Wiedenfeld; Allison C. Alberts; Ariadne Angulo; Elizabeth L. Bennett; Onnie Byers; Topiltzin Contreras‐MacBeath; Gláucia Drummond; Gustavo A. B. da Fonseca; Claude Gascon; Ian Harrison; Nicolas Heard; Axel Hochkirch; et al. (Conservation Biology, 2021)
Some conservation prioritization methods are based on the assumption that conservation needs overwhelm current resources and not all species can be conserved; therefore, a conservation triage scheme (i.e., when the system is overwhelmed, species should be divided into three groups based on likelihood of survival, and efforts should be focused on those species in the group with the best survival prospects and reduced or denied to those in the group with no survival prospects and to those in the group not needing special efforts for their conservation) is necessary to guide resource allocation. We argue that this decision‐making strategy is not appropriate because resources are not as limited as often assumed, and it is not evident that there are species that cannot be conserved. Small population size alone, for example, does not doom a species to extinction; plants, reptiles, birds, and mammals offer examples. Although resources dedicated to conserving all threatened species are insufficient at present, the world's economic resources are vast, and greater resources could be dedicated toward species conservation. The political framework for species conservation has improved, with initiatives such as the UN Sustainable Development Goals and other international agreements, funding mechanisms such as The Global Environment Facility, and the rise of many nongovernmental organizations with nimble, rapid‐response small grants programs. For a prioritization system to allow no extinctions, zero extinctions must be an explicit goal of the system. Extinction is not inevitable, and should not be acceptable. A goal of no human‐induced extinctions is imperative given the irreversibility of species loss.

Decreased calcium concentration interferes with life history defense strategies of Ceriodaphnia cornuta in response to fish kairomone - Jing Huang; Xiaoqing Xu; Da Li; Yunfei Sun; Lei Gu; Lu Zhang; Kai Lyu; Zhou Yang (Limnology and Oceanography, 2021)
Declining calcium in freshwater lakes has become a serious threat to aquatic organisms, which may affect the anti‐fish defense of cladocerans with high calcium demand. To evaluate the effects of low calcium on life history strategies of cladocerans for defending against fish predation, we exposed Ceriodaphnia cornuta to eight concentrations of calcium ranging from 0.5 to 50.0 mg L −1 in the absence and presence of fish kairomone, and observed the changes in body surface, recorded the key life‐history traits, and calculated the degree of its induced defense response. Results showed that, on average, low calcium (0.5, 1.0, 1.5 mg L −1 ) significantly reduced survival, maternal body size at maturation, and total offspring per female by 66.7%, 8.0%, and 48.8%, respectively, compared with those exposed to normal calcium level (10.0 mg L −1 ). At the normal calcium level, fish kairomone shortened the time to maturation, reduced maternal body size at maturation, and increased total offspring by 15.7%, 11.0%, and 29.6%, respectively, compared with those not exposed to fish kairomone. In the presence of fish kairomone, the reproduction of C. cornuta was affected by a narrower range of calcium concentrations. Calcium concentrations and fish kairomone showed a significant interaction on maternal body size at maturation, total offspring, and body size of neonates, i.e., low calcium impaired the life history defenses involved in maternal development, but enhanced the defense traits involved in reproductive performance, which indicated the diversified interference effects of decreased calcium on the life history defense strategies of C. cornuta against fish predators.

Investigation on Hydrodynamic Performance of Flapping Foil Interacting with Oncoming Von Kármán Wake of a D-Section Cylinder - Jian Li; Peng Wang; Xiaoyi An; Da Lyu; Ruixuan He; Baoshou Zhang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
Flapping foils are studied to achieve an efficient propeller. The performance of the flapping foil is influenced by many factors such as oncoming vortices, heaving amplitude, and geometrical parameters. In this paper, investigations are performed on flapping foils to assess its performance in the wake of a D-section cylinder located half a diameter in front of the foil. The effects of heaving amplitude and foil thickness are examined. The results indicate that oncoming vortices facilitate the flapping motion. Although the thrust increases with the increasing heaving amplitude, the propelling efficiency decreases with it. Moreover, increasing thickness results in higher efficiency. The highest propelling efficiency is achieved when the heaving amplitude equals ten percent of the chord length with a symmetric foil type of NACA0050 foil. When the heaving amplitude is small, the influence of the thickness tends to be more remarkable. The propelling efficiency exceeds 100% and the heaving amplitude is 10% of the chord length when the commonly used equation is adopted. This result demonstrates that the flapping motion extracts some energy from the oncoming vortices. Based on the numerical results, a new parameter, the energy transforming ratio (RET), is applied to explicate the energy transforming procedure. The RET represents that the flapping foil is driven by the engine or both the engines and the oncoming vortices with the range of RET being (0, Infini) and (−1, 0), respectively. With what has been discussed in this paper, the oncoming wake of the D-section cylinder benefits the flapping motion which indicates that the macro underwater vehicle performs better following a bluff body.

Multiple diversity facets of crucial microbial groups in biological soil crusts promote soil multifunctionality - Hua Li; Youxin Chen; Gongliang Yu; Federico Rossi; Da Huo; Roberto De Philippis; Xiaoli Cheng; Weibo Wang; Renhui Li (Global Ecology and Biogeography, 2021)
Aim Microbial diversity is one of the most important factors for maintaining the performance of multiple functions in soils (multifunctionality). However, existing studies typically consider the taxonomic richness or Shannon diversity of the entire community. We know little about the connection network of taxonomic and phylogenetic facets of diversity and their collective impact on multifunctionality. In this study, the linkages of effects of diversity within functional groups were disentangled in drylands. Location The central Tibetan Plateau. Time period Present. Major taxa studied Phototrophs and diazotrophs (mainly cyanobacteria). Methods Given the carbon‐ and nitrogen‐limited nature of drylands, we conducted a high‐throughput sequencing of C/N‐fixing functional groups from biocrusts and evaluated multiple facets of diversity (i.e., richness, evenness and phylogeny‐related trait dissimilarity), together with seven crucial variables of soil functioning to calculate multifunctionality. The relationships between multifaceted diversity and abundance with individual functions and multifunctionality were validated by a set of solid statistical analyses. Results We found that the integrated biodiversity index was a stronger predictor of multifunctionality than richness. The divergent performance of different facets of diversity determined the idiosyncratic effect of each functional group on soil multifunctionality. Moreover, the evaluation of functional significance at the species level gave important clues on the trade‐offs and redundancy in each functional group, explaining the distinct patterns of effects of diversity. Richness was the dominant factor for diazotrophs to maximize multifunctionality, whereas phylogenetic dissimilarity was the essential one for phototrophs. Main conclusions Our study demonstrated that multiple facets of diversity should be considered when assessing the effects of biodiversity. In contrast to the community level, within‐functional group measures might adequately capture the features of diversity that are most correlated with soil multifunctionality. Our results provide a perspective to bridge the gap between taxonomic and trait‐based approaches for elucidating the biodiversity–ecosystem function relationship.

Stochastic processes shape the biogeographic variations in core bacterial communities between aerial and belowground compartments of common bean - Yang Liu; Da Li; Jiejun Qi; Ziheng Peng; Weimin Chen; Gehong Wei; Shuo Jiao (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Although studies of biogeography in soil bacterial communities have attracted considerable attention, the generality of these patterns along with assembly processes and underlying drivers is poorly understood in the inner tissues of plants. Plant tissues provide unique ecological habitats for microorganisms, which play an essential role in plant performance. Here, we compared core bacterial communities among five soil–plant associated compartments of common bean across five sampling sites in China. Neutral and null modelling consistently suggested that stochastic processes dominated the core community assembly processes and escalated from the belowground compartments to the inner tissues of aerial plant parts. The multiple distance‐decay relationships also varied and had flattened patterns in the stem endosphere, which were shaped by distinct environmental factors in each compartment. Coexistence patterns also varied in topological features, in addition with the sparsest networks in the stem endosphere resulted from the interaction with the stochastic processes. This study considerably expanded our understanding of various biogeographic patterns, assembly processes, and the underlying mechanisms of core bacterial communities between aerial and belowground compartments of common bean. That will provide a scientific basis for the reasonable regulation of core bacterial consortia to get better plant performance.

Karstification of Ordovician carbonate reservoirs in Huanghua depression and its control factors - Jinning Zhang; Jiansheng Zhou; Lixin Fu; Hongjun Li; Da Lou (Carbonates and Evaporites, 2020)
With extensive ancient karsts and abundant oil and gas resources, the Ordovician carbonate reservoirs in the Huanghua depression have broad prospects of exploration and development. The types, characteristics, distribution and controlling factors of karsts were investigated by means of the analysis of cores, thin slices, logging, seismic, and geochemical data in this study. The study reveals that the Ordovician carbonate reservoirs in the Huanghua depression falls into three main categories, pore type, pore-vug-fracture type and fracture type, of which, pore-vug-fracture reservoirs account for 62%. The epigenetic uniform karst mainly developed in the Late Ordovician to Early Carboniferous, while the differential karst developed in the Mesozoic. The uniform karstification mainly include chemical dissolution of the original carbonate rock, while the differential karstification not only include chemical dissolution but also hydraulic erosion and biochemical dissolution by organic acid. The burial karstification mainly involved the dissolution of the Ordovician reservoir by large amount of acidic fluids generated by the overlying Upper Paleozoic coal measure source rock while generating hydrocarbon. The dissolution caused by upwelling magmatic-tectonic hydrothermal fluids along faults also contributed to the formation of burial karst reservoirs. The sedimentation-diagenesis and paleogeomorphology-tectonic movement have certain control effects on the karstification of the Ordovician reservoirs in the Huanghua depression, determining the reservoir quality.

Multifunctionality of biocrusts is positively predicted by network topologies consistent with interspecies facilitation - Hua Li; Da Huo; Weibo Wang; Youxin Chen; Xiaoli Cheng; Gongliang Yu; Renhui Li (Molecular Ecology, 2020)
The potential of biodiversity loss to impair the delivery of ecosystem services has motived ecologists to better understand the relationship between biodiversity and ecosystem functioning. Although increasing evidence underlines the collective contribution of different biodiversity components on the simultaneous performance of multiple functions (multifunctionality), we know little about the trade‐offs between individual diversity effects and the extent to which they determine multifunctionality differentially. Here, at a subcontinental scale of 62 dryland sites, we show in phototrophic microbiota of biological soil crusts (biocrusts) that, whereas richness alone is unable to guarantee the maxima of multifunctional performance, interspecies facilitation and compositional identity are particularly stronger but often neglected predictors. The inconsistent effects of different biodiversity components imply that soil multifunctionality can be lost despite certain species remaining present. Moreover, we reveal a significant empirical association between species functional importance and its topological feature in co‐occurrence networks, indicating a functional signal of species interaction. Nevertheless, abundant species tend to isolate and merely interact within small topological structures, but rare species were tightly connected in complicated network modules. Our findings suggest that abundant and rare species of soil phototrophs exhibit distinct functional relevance. These results give a comprehensive view of how soil constructive species drive multifunctionality in biocrusts and ultimately promote a deeper understanding of the consequences of biodiversity loss in real‐world ecosystems.

Contrasting the Pb (II) and Cd (II) tolerance of Enterobacter sp. via its cellular stress responses - Zhongquan Jiang; Liu Jiang; Lin Zhang; Mu Su; Da Tian; Tong Wang; Yalin Sun; Ying Nong; Shuijin Hu; Shimei Wang; Zhen Li (Environmental Microbiology, 2020)
Summary Successful application of microorganisms to heavy metal remediation depends on their resistance to toxic metals. This study contrasted the differences of tolerant mechanisms between Pb 2+ and Cd 2+ in Enterobacter sp. Microbial respiration and production of formic acid showed that Enterobacter sp. had a higher tolerant concentration of Pb (>1000 mg l −1 ) than Cd (about 200 mg l −1 ). Additionally, SEM confirmed that most of Pb and Cd nanoparticles (NPs) were adsorbed onto cell membrane. The Cd stress, even at low concentration (50 mg l −1 ), significantly enlarged the sizes of cells. The cellular size raised from 0.4 × 1.0 to 0.9 × 1.6 μm on average, inducing a platelet‐like shape. In contrast, Pb cations did not stimulate such enlargement even up to 1000 mg l −1 . Moreover, Cd NPs were adsorbed homogeneously by almost all the bacterial cells under TEM. However, only a few cells work as ‘hot spots’ on the sorption of Pb NPs. The heterogeneous sorption might result from a ‘self‐sacrifice’ mechanism, i.e., some cells at a special life stage contributed mostly to Pb sorption. This mechanism, together with the lower mobility of Pb cations, caused higher microbial tolerance and removal efficiency towards Pb 2+ . This study sheds evident contrasts of bacterial resistance to the two most common heavy metals.

TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open access - Jens Kattge; Gerhard Bönisch; Sandra Díaz; Sandra Lavorel; Iain Colin Prentice; Paul Leadley; Susanne Tautenhahn; Gijsbert D. A. Werner; Tuomas Aakala; Mehdi Abedi; Alicia T. R. Acosta; George C. Adamidis; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2020)
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people. Plant trait data thus represent the basis for a vast area of research spanning from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology, to biodiversity conservation, ecosystem and landscape management, restoration, biogeography and earth system modelling. Since its foundation in 2007, the TRY database of plant traits has grown continuously. It now provides unprecedented data coverage under an open access data policy and is the main plant trait database used by the research community worldwide. Increasingly, the TRY database also supports new frontiers of trait‐based plant research, including the identification of data gaps and the subsequent mobilization or measurement of new data. To support this development, in this article we evaluate the extent of the trait data compiled in TRY and analyse emerging patterns of data coverage and representativeness. Best species coverage is achieved for categorical traits—almost complete coverage for ‘plant growth form’. However, most traits relevant for ecology and vegetation modelling are characterized by continuous intraspecific variation and trait–environmental relationships. These traits have to be measured on individual plants in their respective environment. Despite unprecedented data coverage, we observe a humbling lack of completeness and representativeness of these continuous traits in many aspects. We, therefore, conclude that reducing data gaps and biases in the TRY database remains a key challenge and requires a coordinated approach to data mobilization and trait measurements. This can only be achieved in collaboration with other initiatives.

Premature ovarian insufficiency (POI) is a major cause of reduced female fertility and affects approximately 1% women under 40 years of age. Recent advances emphasize the genetic heterogeneity of POI. Fanconi anemia (FA) genes, traditionally known for their essential roles in DNA repair and cytogenetic instability, have been demonstrated to be involved in meiosis and germ cell development. Here, we conducted whole-exome sequencing (WES) in 50 Han Chinese female patients with POI. Rare missense variants were identified in FANCA ( Fanconi anemia complementation group A ): c.1772G > A (p.R591Q) and c.3887A > G (p.E1296G). Both variants are heterozygous in the patients and very rare in the human population. In vitro functional studies further demonstrated that these two missense variants of FANCA exhibited reduced protein expression levels compared with the wild type, suggesting the partial loss of function. Moreover, mono-ubiquitination levels of FANCD2 upon mitomycin C stimulation were significantly reduced in cells overexpressing FANCA variants. Furthermore, a loss-of-function mutation of Fanca was generated in C57BL/6 mice for in vivo functional assay. Consistently, heterozygous mutated female mice ( Fanca + / − ) showed reduced fertility and declined numbers of follicles with aging when compared with the wild-type female mice. Collectively, our results suggest that heterozygous pathogenic variants in FANCA are implicated in non-syndromic POI in Han Chinese women, provide new insights into the molecular mechanisms of POI and highlight the contribution of FANCA variants in female subfertility.

Transitional Flow on Model Propellers and Their Influence on Relative Rotative Efficiency - Da-Qing Li; Per Lindell; Sofia Werner (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019)
Unexpected low value of the relative rotative efficiency ηR is sometimes noted when scaling the towing tank model-test result with the ITTC-78 method to obtain the propulsive efficiency factors of propellers. The paper explains the causes of this phenomenon. The boundary layer state of three propellers was studied by a paint test and a RANS method. The paint tests showed that the propellers in behind conditions at low Reynolds number (Rn) are covered mainly with laminar flow, which is different from open water tests conducted at a high Rn. Apart from that a moderate difference in Rn between the open water and the self-propulsion test may lead to a low ηR value, the paper points out that flow separation in behind conditions could be another significant reason for the drop of ηR for some propellers. Therefore, two factors will lead to an unexpected decrease of ηR: (1) A slightly lower open water torque interpolated from an open water test carried out at a high Rn and (2) a slightly higher torque in a self-propulsion test due to laminar flow separation near the trailing edge. The phenomenon is caused by the Rn scaled effect and closely associated with design philosophy like the blade section profile, the chord length, and chordwise load distribution.

Coring of Antarctic Subglacial Sediments - Da Gong; Xiaopeng Fan; Yazhou Li; Bing Li; Nan Zhang; Raphael Gromig; Emma C. Smith; Wolf Dummann; Sophie Berger; Olaf Eisen; Jan Tell; Boris K. Biskaborn; et al. (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019)
Coring sediments in subglacial aquatic environments offers unique opportunities for research on paleo-environments and paleo-climates because it can provide data from periods even earlier than ice cores, as well as the overlying ice histories, interactions between ice and the water system, life forms in extreme habitats, sedimentology, and stratigraphy. However, retrieving sediment cores from a subglacial environment faces more difficulties than sediment coring in oceans and lakes, resulting in low yields from the most current subglacial sediment coring methods. The coring tools should pass through a hot water-drilled access borehole, then the water column, to reach the sediment layers. The access boreholes are size-limited by the hot water drilling tools and techniques. These holes are drilled through ice up to 3000–4000 m thick, with diameters ranging from 10–60 cm, and with a refreezing closure rate of up to 6 mm/h after being drilled. Several purpose-built streamline corers have been developed to pass through access boreholes and collect the sediment core. The main coring objectives are as follows: (i) To obtain undisturbed water–sediment cores, either singly or as multi-cores and (ii) to obtain long cores with minimal stratigraphic deformation. Subglacial sediment coring methods use similar tools to those used in lake and ocean coring. These methods include the following: Gravity coring, push coring, piston coring, hammer or percussion coring, vibrocoring, and composite methods. Several core length records have been attained by different coring methods, including a 290 cm percussion core from the sub-ice-shelf seafloor, a 400 cm piston core from the sub-ice-stream, and a 170 cm gravity core from a subglacial lake. There are also several undisturbed water–sediment cores that have been obtained by gravity corers or hammer corers. Most current coring tools are deployed by winch and cable facilities on the ice surface. There are three main limitations for obtaining long sediment cores which determines coring tool development, as follows: Hot-water borehole radial size restriction, the sedimentary structure, and the coring techniques. In this paper, we provide a general view on current developments in coring tools, including the working principles, corer characteristics, operational methods, coring site locations, field conditions, coring results, and possible technical improvements. Future prospects in corer design and development are also discussed.

As a result of the severe natural environment with oxygen deficit in the Antarctic, using conventional manual work to screw and unscrew the drill pipe increases the labor intensity tremendously and causes an efficiency reduction. Therefore, it would be useful to design a clamper inside the drilling shelter, which could help to assemble and disassemble the ice core barrel with screw connection. This paper describes the design of and experiments with the clamper inside the movable drilling shelter. A related testing stand was also designed and built to experiment on relationships between the clamper motor current versus clamping torque and force. Through experimental data collation and calculation analysis, the following conclusions could be drawn: (1) according to the rotary ability of the Ice and Bedrock Electromechanical Drill (IBED) to calculate and determine the torque of clamper, the clamping torque required to provide by the clamper is 100 N·m; (2) finite element simulation and analysis of the non-standard transmission chain showed that the mechanical reliability of the subparts; (3) the experimental results showed the range of the clamping force and clamping torque of the clamper. The clamping force and clamping torque increased with the increase of clamper DC motor current, presenting proportional linear relationships. The clamper can meet the clamping requirements of IBED for screwing, unscrewing, and clamping, which will be greatly helpful when it is tested in the field.

A new insight into lead (II) tolerance of environmental fungi based on a study of Aspergillus niger and Penicillium oxalicum - Da Tian; Zhongquan Jiang; Liu Jiang; Mu Su; Zheye Feng; Lin Zhang; Shimei Wang; Zhen Li; Shuijin Hu (Environmental Microbiology, 2019)
Summary Environmental microorganisms have been widely applied in heavy metal remediation. This study explored the mechanisms of lead tolerance of two typical filamentous fungi, Aspergillus niger and Penicillium oxalicum . It is shown that the mechanisms of reducing Pb toxicity by these two fungi have three major pathways. The secreted oxalic acid can react with Pb (II) to form insoluble Pb minerals, primarily lead oxalate. Then, the enhanced biosorption via forming new border of cell wall prevents the transportation of Pb (II) into hypha. In addition, the fungal activity could be maintained even at high Pb concentration due to the intracellular accumulation. It was confirmed that A. niger has the higher Pb tolerance (up to 1500 mg l −1 Pb level) compared with P. oxalicum (up to 1000 mg l −1 ). Meanwhile, Pb levels below 1000 mg l −1 partially stimulate the bioactivity of A. niger , which was confirmed by its elevated respiration (from 53 to 63 mg C l −1 medium h −1 ). This subsequently enhanced microbial functions of A. niger to resist Pb toxicity. A better understanding of Pb tolerance of these two fungi sheds a bright future of applying them to remediate lead‐contaminated environments.

HpaP, a novel regulatory protein with ATPase and phosphatase activity, contributes to full virulence in Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris - Ping Cui; Rui‐Fang Li; Da‐Pei Zhang; Ji‐Liang Tang; Guang‐Tao Lu (Environmental Microbiology, 2018)
Summary The ability of the bacterial phytopathogen Xanthomonas campestris pv. campestris ( Xcc ) to cause disease is dependent on the type III secretion system (T3SS). Proteins of the Xcc T3SS are encoded by hrp (hypersensitive response and pathogenicity) genes and whose expression is mainly controlled by the regulators HrpG and HrpX. Here, we describe the identification and characterization of a previously unknown regulatory protein ( named HpaP), which plays important role in hrp gene expression and virulence in Xcc . Clean deletion of hpaP demonstrated reduced virulence and HR (hypersensitive response) induction of Xcc and alterations in cell motility and stress tolerance. Global transcriptome analyses revealed that most hrp genes were down regulated in the hpaP mutant, suggesting HpaP positively regulates hrp genes. GUS activity assays implied that HpaP regulates the expression of hrp genes via controlling the expression of hrpX . Biochemical analyses revealed that HpaP protein had both ATPase and phosphatase activity. While further site‐directed mutagenesis of conserved residues in the PTP loop (a protein tyrosine phosphatase signature) of HpaP resulted in the loss of both phosphatase activity and regulatory activity in virulence and HR. Taken together, the findings identify a new regulatory protein that controls hrp gene expression and virulence in Xcc .

Summary Despite numerous laboratory studies on physiologies of harmful algal bloom (HAB) species, physiologies of these algae during a natural bloom are understudied. Here, we investigated a bloom of the raphidophyte Heterosigma akashiwo in the East China Sea in 2014 using metabarcode (18S rDNA) and metatranscriptome sequencing. Based on 18S rDNA analyses, the phytoplankton community shifted from high diversity in the pre‐bloom stage to H. akashiwo predominance during the bloom. A sharp decrease in ambient dissolved inorganic phosphate and strong up‐regulation of phosphate and dissolved organic phosphorus (DOP) uptake genes, including the rarely documented (ppGpp)ase, in H. akashiwo from pre‐bloom to bloom was indicative of rapid phosphorus uptake and efficient utilization of DOP that might be a driver of the H. akashiwo bloom. Furthermore, observed up‐regulated expression of mixotrophy‐related genes suggests potential contribution of mixotrophy to the bloom. Accelerating photosynthetic carbon fixation was also implied by the up‐regulation of carbonic anhydrase genes during the bloom. Notably, we also observed a strong morning‐to‐afternoon shift in the expression of many genes. Our findings provide insights into metabolic processes likely important for H. akashiwo bloom formation, and suggest the need to consider timing of sampling in field studies on this alga.

Metaproteomics reveals major microbial players and their metabolic activities during the blooming period of a marine dinoflagellate Prorocentrum donghaiense - Dong‐Xu Li; Hao Zhang; Xiao‐Huang Chen; Zhang‐Xian Xie; Yong Zhang; Shu‐Feng Zhang; Lin Lin; Feng Chen; Da‐Zhi Wang (Environmental Microbiology, 2018)
Summary Interactions between bacteria and phytoplankton during bloom events are essential for both partners, which impacts their physiology, alters ambient chemistry and shapes ecosystem diversity. Here, we investigated the community structure and metabolic activities of free‐living bacterioplankton in different blooming phases of a dinoflagellate Prorocentrum donghaiense using a metaproteomic approach. The Fibrobacteres ‐ Chlorobi ‐ Bacteroidetes group, Rhodobacteraceae , SAR11 and SAR86 clades contributed largely to the bacterial community in the middle‐blooming phase while the Pseudoalteromonadaceae exclusively dominated in the late‐blooming phase. Transporters and membrane proteins, especially TonB‐dependent receptors were highly abundant in both blooming phases. Proteins involved in carbon metabolism, energy metabolism and stress response were frequently detected in the middle‐blooming phase while proteins participating in proteolysis and central carbon metabolism were abundant in the late‐blooming phase. Beta‐glucosidase with putative algicidal capability was identified from the Pseudoalteromonadaceae only in the late‐blooming phase, suggesting an active role of this group in lysing P . donghaiense cells. Our results indicated that diverse substrate utilization strategies and different capabilities for environmental adaptation among bacteria shaped their distinct niches in different bloom phases, and certain bacterial species from the Pseudoalteromonadaceae might be crucial for the termination of a dinoflagellate bloom.

A statistical analysis of hourly heavy rainfall events over the Beijing metropolitan region during the warm seasons of 2007–2014 - Huiqi Li; Xiaopeng Cui; Da‐Lin Zhang (International Journal of Climatology, 2017)
A statistical analysis of the spatiotemporal characteristics of hourly heavy rainfall ( HHR ) events and rainstorm days, defined as greater than 20 mm h −1 and 50 mm day −1 , respectively, is performed using observations at 5‐min intervals from 155 automated weather stations ( AWSs ) over the Beijing metropolitan region ( BMR ) during the warm seasons of 2007–2014. Results show pronounced variability in the frequencies and rainfall amounts of both HHR events and rainstorm days across the BMR of less than 150 km width from the west to east. That is, higher‐ (lower) frequency HHR events with more (less) accumulated rainfall amounts take place in eastern Haidian and over the BMR 's northeast mountains (west and northwest mountains). Many extreme rainfall and even record‐breaking events, in terms of the frequency, duration, rainfall amount and intensity, are found to occur in the regions of high‐frequency HHR events and rainstorm days. The frequency of rainstorm days with HHR events accounts for more than 50% of that of total rainstorm days over the BMR 's plains and near the northeast mountains. Results also show that HHR events occur most frequently in late July, and typically peak during 1600–2000 LST . A comparison of the averaged surface meteorological variables and upper‐air sounding at 0800 LST between HHR and non‐ HHR days reveals that the occurrences of the HHR events coincide with the distribution of surface warmer and more humid air as well as organized convergence in the presence of an unstable environment with surface south‐ to southeasterly winds, low‐level south to southwesterly flows and a deep layer of higher moisture content. These results suggest likely the positive influences of urban environment and mountain‐plain circulations on the generation of the HHR events, given favourable larger‐scale conditions.

Cystatin SN (CST1) belongs to the type 2 cystatin (CST) superfamily, which restricts the proteolytic activities of cysteine proteases. CST1 has been recently considered to be involved in the development of several human cancers. However, the prognostic significance and function of CST1 in breast cancer remains unknown. In the current study, we found that CST1 was generally upregulated in breast cancer at both mRNA and protein level. Furthermore, overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) in the low CST1 expression subgroup were significantly superior to the high CST1 expression subgroup (OS, p < 0.001; DFS, p < 0.001), which indicated that CST1 expression level was closely correlated to the survival risk of these patients. Univariate and multivariate analyses demonstrated that CST1 expression was an independent prognostic factor, the same as ER status and nodal status. Next, CST1 overexpression promoted breast cancer cell proliferation, clonogenicity, migration, and invasion abilities. By contrast, knockdown of CST1 attenuated these malignant characteristics in breast cancer cells. Collectively, our study indicates that CST1 cannot only serve as a significant prognostic indicator but also as a potential therapeutic target for breast cancer. Key messages High CST1 expression is negatively correlated with survival of breast cancer patients. CST1 promotes cell proliferation, clone formation, and metastasis in breast cancer cells. CST1 is a novel potential prognostic biomarker and therapeutic target for breast cancer.

The chimeric nature of the genomes of marine magnetotactic coccoid‐ovoid bacteria defines a novel group of P roteobacteria - Boyang Ji; Sheng‐Da Zhang; Wei‐Jia Zhang; Zoe Rouy; François Alberto; Claire‐Lise Santini; Sophie Mangenot; Séverine Gagnot; Nadège Philippe; Nathalie Pradel; Lichen Zhang; Sébastien Tempel; et al. (Environmental Microbiology, 2017)
Summary Magnetotactic bacteria (MTB) are a group of phylogenetically and physiologically diverse Gram‐negative bacteria that synthesize intracellular magnetic crystals named magnetosomes. MTB are affiliated with three classes of Proteobacteria phylum, Nitrospirae phylum, Omnitrophica phylum and probably with the candidate phylum Latescibacteria. The evolutionary origin and physiological diversity of MTB compared with other bacterial taxonomic groups remain to be illustrated. Here, we analysed the genome of the marine magneto‐ovoid strain MO‐1 and found that it is closely related to Magnetococcus marinus MC‐1. Detailed analyses of the ribosomal proteins and whole proteomes of 390 genomes reveal that, among the Proteobacteria analysed, only MO‐1 and MC‐1 have coding sequences (CDSs) with a similarly high proportion of origins from Alphaproteobacteria , Betaproteobacteria , Deltaproteobacteria and Gammaproteobacteria . Interestingly, a comparative metabolic network analysis with anoxic network enzymes from sequenced MTB and non‐MTB successfully allows the eventual prediction of an organism with a metabolic profile compatible for magnetosome production. Altogether, our genomic analysis reveals multiple origins of MO‐1 and M. marinus MC‐1 genomes and suggests a metabolism‐restriction model for explaining whether a bacterium could become an MTB upon acquisition of magnetosome encoding genes.
