Amin; Lin Lin; Feng Ge; Da-Zhi Wang (Marine Life Science & Technology, 2023)
Diatoms are unicellular eukaryotic phytoplankton that account for approximately 20% of global carbon fixation and 40% of marine primary productivity; thus, they are essential for global carbon biogeochemical cycling and climate. The availability of ten diatom genome sequences has facilitated evolutionary, biological and ecological research over the past decade; however, a complimentary map of the diatom proteome with direct measurements of proteins and peptides is still lacking. Here, we present a proteome map of the model marine diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana using high-resolution mass spectrometry combined with a proteogenomic strategy. In-depth proteomic profiling of three different growth phases and three nutrient-deficient samples identified 9526 proteins, accounting for ~ 81% of the predicted protein-coding genes. Proteogenomic analysis identified 1235 novel genes, 975 revised genes, 104 splice variants and 234 single amino acid variants. Furthermore, our quantitative proteomic analysis experimentally demonstrated that a considerable number of novel genes were differentially translated under different nutrient conditions. These findings substantially improve the genome annotation of T. pseudonana and provide insights into new biological functions of diatoms. This relatively comprehensive diatom proteome catalog will complement available diatom genome and transcriptome data to advance biological and ecological research of marine diatoms.

Anti-inflammatory effects of extracellular vesicles from Morchella on LPS-stimulated RAW264.7 cells via the ROS-mediated p38 MAPK signaling pathway - Qi Chen; Chengchuan Che; Shanshan Yang; Pingping Ding; Meiru Si; Ge Yang (Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry, 2023)
Morchella is a kind of important edible and medicinal fungi, which is rich in polysaccharides, enzymes, fatty acids, amino acids and other active components. Extracellular vesicles (EVs) have a typical membrane structure, and the vesicles contain some specific lipids, miRNAs and proteins, and their can deliver the contents to different cells to change their functions. The present study investigated whether Morchella produce extracellular vesicles and its anti-inflammatory effect on lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced RAW246.7 macrophages. The experimental results showed that Morchella produced extracellular vesicles and significantly reduced the production of nitric oxide (NO) and reactive oxygen species (ROS) in a model of LPS-induced inflammation. In addition, the expression of inflammatory factor-related genes such as inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), tumor necrosis factor-α (TNF-α), interleukin-6 (IL-6) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) showed dose-dependent inhibition. Morchella extracellular vesicles also can inhibit the inflammatory response induced by LPS by inhibiting the production of ROS and reducing the phosphorylation levels of the p38 MAPK signaling pathway. These results indicate that the Morchella extracellular vesicles can be used as a potential anti-inflammatory substance in the treatment of inflammatory diseases.

Biomarker evidence of the water mass structure and primary productivity changes in the Chukchi Sea over the past 70 years - Chao Gao; Xiaoyan Ruan; Yi Ge Zhang; Huan Yang; Xiaotong Xiao; Xiaoxia Lü; Yi Yang; Hongmei Wang; Xiaoguo Yu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The Chukchi Sea has experienced significant changes under global warming in the Common Era, including the shift of primary productivity. However, modern observations are too short to fully investigate the effects of environmental changes in this area. Here, we analyzed lipid biomarkers (e.g. long-chain n -alkanes, n -alkanols, n -alkanoic acids, diols, and sterols) from a sediment core (R07) collected from the Chukchi Sea shelf to determine phytoplankton primary productivity variations and factors influencing these changes over the past 70 years. Similar trends of the abundance of terrestrial ecosystem-derived compounds (e.g. long-chain n -alkanes, n -alkanols, n -alkanoic acids, and C 32 1,15-diol) indicate that terrigenous input increased from ca. 1946 towards ca. 1983 and then decreased thereafter. In comparison, biomarkers with marine origin indicate that the ratio of diatoms to dinoflagellates increased after ca. 1983 towards the core-top (ca. 2011). Concurrent changes in terrigenous input and phytoplankton community indicated a shift in water mass structure at ca. 1983 (i.e. the Alaska Coastal Water decreased and the Bering Sea Water increased), which may be attributed to the phase shift of the Arctic Oscillation and/or unsynchronized flow changes in different water masses. Owing to the different water mass properties, the change of water mass structure caused intense water mixing and the resulting high turbidity in the study area, which led to light limitation for phytoplankton growth. These conditions probably account for the reduced phytoplankton primary productivity from ca. 1983 to ca. 2000 in the general trend of increasing. The results indicate that, in addition to global warming and sea ice retreat, other factors, such as change in regional water mass structure (i.e. different water masses), may also have a significant influence on the primary productivity and the phytoplankton community in the Chukchi Sea shelf.

Deep blue artificial intelligence for knowledge discovery of the intermediate ocean - Ge Chen; Baoxiang Huang; Jie Yang; Milena Radenkovic; Linyao Ge; Chuanchuan Cao; Xiaoyan Chen; Linghui Xia; Guiyan Han; Ying Ma (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Oceans at a depth ranging from ~100 to ~1000-m (defined as the intermediate water here), though poorly understood compared to the sea surface, is a critical layer of the Earth system where many important oceanographic processes take place. Advances in ocean observation and computer technology have allowed ocean science to enter the era of big data (to be precise, big data for the surface layer, small data for the bottom layer, and the intermediate layer sits in between) and greatly promoted our understanding of near-surface ocean phenomena. During the past few decades, however, the intermediate ocean is also undergoing profound changes because of global warming, the research and prediction of which are of intensive concern. Due to the lack of three-dimensional ocean theories and field observations, how to remotely sense the intermediate ocean from space becomes a very attractive but challenging scientific issue. With the rapid development of the next generation of information technology, artificial intelligence (AI) has built a new bridge from data science to marine science (called Deep Blue AI, DBAI), which acts as a powerful weapon to extend the paradigm of modern oceanography in the era of the metaverse. This review first introduces the basic prior knowledge of water movement in the ~100 m ocean and vertical stratification within the ~1000-m depths as well as the data resources provided by satellite remote sensing, field observation, and model reanalysis for DBAI. Then, three universal DBAI methodologies, namely, associative statistical, physically informed, and mathematically driven neural networks, are elucidated in the context of intermediate ocean remote sensing. Finally, the unique advantages and potentials of DBAI in data mining and knowledge discovery are demonstrated in a top-down way of “surface-to-interior” via several typical examples in physical and biological oceanography.

The effect of normal and abnormal eddies on the mixed layer depth in the global ocean - Ji Hao; Jie Yang; Ge Chen (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Mesoscale eddies are broadly distributed over the global ocean and play a significant role in modulating the spatiotemporal evolution of mixed layer depth (MLD). The presence of abnormal eddies in the ocean has been shown; however, the precise quantification of the effect of eddies on MLD, given the case of abnormal eddies, has not been carried out thus far. Differently from the previous approach to identify abnormal eddies through sea surface temperature, we therefore, proposed a method to identify abnormal eddies, using potential density based on Argo data (Array for Real-time Geostrophic Oceanography) for 15 years from 2003 to 2017. Results showed that abnormal anticyclonic eddies (AAE) and abnormal cyclonic eddies (ACE) accounted for 21.67% and 20.17% of total matching anticyclonic eddies (TAE) and the total matching cyclonic eddies (TCE), respectively, in the global ocean. The proportions of abnormal eddies were relatively higher in tropical regions but lower in regions with the boundary current and strong eddy kinetic energy. The MLD changes caused by normal and abnormal eddies were estimated combining satellite altimetry data. The normal eddies were the total matching eddies with the removal of the abnormal eddies, separately called normal anticyclonic eddies (NAE) and normal cyclonic eddies (NCE). The overall influence of NAE (NCE) was more significant on MLD deepening (uplifting) than that of TAE (TCE). Globally, NAE (NCE) changed MLD deepening (uplifting) from ~66 m (~54 m) to ~67 m (~53 m) and exhibited a more pronounced change in the Indian Ocean sector of the Southern Ocean region, from ~111 m (~94 m) to ~115 m (~92 m) in the winter. AAE (ACE), exerted a relatively weak but opposite effect on MLD deepening (uplifting). In other words, the global average MLD caused by them shoaled (deepened) from ~66 m (~54 m) to ~59 m (~59 m), and the North Pacific Ocean shoaled (deepened) from ~61 m (~47 m) to ~49 m (~57 m) in winter. Given the above results, abnormal eddies should be accounted for when the impact of ocean eddies is evaluated on the global climate system.

Mitochondrial gene rearrangements suggest a new genus in the subfamily Cantharinae (Coleoptera) - Yuxia Yang; Ya Kang; Junbo Tong; Xueying Ge; Xingke Yang; Haoyu Liu (Zoologica Scripta, 2023)
The Cephalomalthinus semifumatus species group, referred to as the “semifumatus” group henceforth, is interesting because of its heterogeneous morphology resembling either Cephalomalthinus Pic, 1921 or Rhagonycha Eschscholtz, 1830. To elucidate its phylogenetic status, mitochondrial genomes of four species of the “semifumatus” group, 11 Cephalomalthinus species, and 11 Rhagonycha species were sequenced and examined. All analysed mitogenomes were similar with respect to genome size, nucleotide composition, and AT content. Surprisingly, a rearrangement of the trnW ‐ trnC and trnY genes was detected in the “semifumatus” group, presumably caused by tandem duplication and random loss events. Furthermore, genetic distance analyses showed that the proximity of the “semifumatus” group to Cephalomalthinus and to Rhagonycha was comparable to that between the latter two. Moreover, the produced phylogeny strongly supported the monophyly of the “semifumatus” group, and molecular clock analyses dated its divergence from Cephalomalthinus to 32.52 Ma. Thus, the new genus Amphimorphus gen. nov. is suggested to comprise the “semifumatus” group, in which the observed gene rearrangement was a synapomorphy. Moreover, morphological evidence regarding the unique structure of the aedeagus supported this separation. These results indicate that mitochondrial gene rearrangement provide important phylogenetic implications for revising Cephalomalthinus , a speciose genus that is puzzling in the morphology‐based taxonomy.

Evaluation of housekeeping genes as references for quantitative real‐time PCR analysis of European eel, Anguilla anguilla - Ying‐Ying Li; Xi Chen; Jin‐Xian Yang; Qiang Chen; Tie‐Ying Song; Jun‐Qing Ge (Journal of Fish Biology, 2023)
Eels are important aquaculture species for which an increasing number of reference genes are being identified and applied. In this study, five housekeeping genes [RPL7 (ribosomal protein L7), 18 S (18 S ribosomal RNA), EF1A (elongation factor 1α), ACTB (β‐actin) and GAPDH (glyceraldehyde‐3‐phosphate dehydrogenase)] were chosen to evaluate their reliability as reference genes for quantitative real‐time PCR (qPCR) for the study of Anguilla anguilla . The expression of the selected genes in different eel tissues was determined using qPCR at different growth stages or upon challenge by Anguillid herpesvirus (AngHV), and the expression levels of these genes were then compared and evaluated using the geNorm and NormFinder algorithms. Then, RefFinder was used to comprehensively rank the examined housekeeping genes. Interestingly, the expression of the evaluated housekeeping genes exhibited tissue‐dependent and treatment‐dependent variations. In different growth periods A. anguilla tissues, the most stable genes were the following: ACTB in mucus; 18 S in skin and kidney; RPL7 in muscle, gill, intestine and brain; EF1A in heart and liver; and GAPDH in spleen. In contrast, in AngHV‐challenged A. anguilla tissues, the most stable genes were the following: 18 S in mucus; RPL7 in skin, gill, heart, spleen, kidney and intestine; EF1A in muscle and liver; and ACTB in brain. Further comparison analysis indicated that the expression of RPL7 and EF1A was stable in multiple A. anguilla tissues in different growth periods and in eels challenged by AngHV. Nonetheless, the expression level of GAPDH in eel tissues was lower, and it was unstable in several tissues. These results indicated that the selection of reference genes for qPCR analysis in A. anguilla should be made in accordance with experimental parameters, and both RPL7 and EF1A could be used as reference genes for qPCR study of A. anguilla at different growth stages or upon challenge by AngHV. The reference genes identified in this study could improve the accuracy of qPCR data and facilitate further studies aimed at understanding the biology of eels.

Metabarcoding reveals the differential sensitivity of planktonic microbiome to environmental filtering and biointeraction in Sansha Yongle blue hole - Tianying Chen; Yunyun Zhuang; Chang Chen; Xuewei Mao; Ruping Ge; Hongju Chen; Jianwei Chen; Liang Fu; Zuosheng Yang; Guangxing Liu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
The Sansha Yongle blue hole (SYBH) is the world’s deepest blue hole known so far and its unique hydrochemical characteristics make it a valuable site for studying biodiversity and ecological processes. Here, we used metabarcoding approach to investigate the diversity, assembly mechanism and co-occurrence pattern of planktonic microbiome in SYBH. Our results revealed the distinct separation of communities from upper oxic, middle oxic and suboxic-anoxic layer and significant day-night difference was detected in the upper-layer community of microeukaryotes, indicating potential diel migration. Stochastic processes played a significant role in the community assembly of microeukaryotes, while deterministic processes dominated in prokaryotes, confirming the stronger environmental filtering on prokaryotes as also suggested by the correlation with environmental variables. Microeukaryotes were less sensitive to environments but significantly affected by cross-domain biointeraction. When comparing the subcommunities of different abundance, we found that abundant taxa were widespread while rare taxa were habitat-specific. In co-occurrence network, over 87% of the interactions and 19 out of 20 keystone OTUs (Operational Taxonomic Units) were affiliated to moderate or rare taxa, suggesting the importance of non-abundant taxa in maintaining community stability. The predominant positive edges in the network pointed to that interspecies cooperation may be one of the ecological strategies in SYBH. Overall, we highlight the divergent assembly pattern and different driving forces in shaping plankton microbiome in SYBH, which may advance current understanding on diversity and dynamics of marine life in blue hole ecosystems.

Evolutions of upwelling and terrestrial organic matter input in the inner shelf of the East China Sea in the last millennium revealed by long-chain alkyl diols proxies - Chuanhui Song; Tianxiang Dang; Ting Zhang; Tiantian Ge; Rong Xiang; Lei Xing; Rui Bao; Yang Zhou; Rui Xiao; Baojin Wu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Long-chain alkyl diols (LCDs) can be used as organic geochemical proxies for paleoceanographic change, especially in marginal sea areas where large volumes of sediments are deposited rapidly and continuously. However, little is known about the applicability and response on a millennium scale in relation with existing records in those sediments. We reconstruct changes in upwelling and terrestrial organic matter (OM) input in core sediments from the Zhejiang Fujian coastal station (T08) and Yangtze River Estuary station (T06) in the inner shelf of the East China Sea (ECS) over the last millennium, using the LCD based proxies: diol index 2 (DI-2), and FC 32 1,15-diol. Our results show that DI-2 values ([(C 28 +C 30 )1,14-diols]/([(C 28 +C 30 )1,13-diols]+[(C 28 +C 30 )1,14-diols])) at T08 decrease significantly during 600–400 yr BP but increase gradually after 400 yr BP. The FC 32 1,15-diol proxy ([C 32 1,15-diol]×100/([(C 28 +C 30 )1,13-diols]+[(C 30 +C 32 )1,15-diols])) at T06 shows marked fluctuations during 1000–800 yr BP, followed by a significant decline during 800–500 yr BP but a subsequent increase from 500 to 300 yr BP. We find that variations in DI-2 values are broadly consistent with changes in the strength of the East Asian Summer Monsoon (EASM) and the Kuroshio Current and are likely linked to changes in the frequency and intensity of the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO). The increased strength of the EASM causes greater offshore movement of the upper layer of seawater, which in turn triggers upwelling of bottom waters formed by Kuroshio subsurface waters. We find that variations in FC 32 1,15-diol proxy are controlled mainly by the East Asian Winter Monsoon (EAWM) and the Yangtze River discharge. By increasing the strength of the EAWM, southward transportation of material deposited in the estuary of the Yangtze River by the ECS coastal currents is promoted. In addition, we synthesize records of other organic geochemical indicators nearby core sediments in the ECS; these records emphasize the importance of reconstructing the evolutionary history of upwelling and subdividing the relative inputs of terrestrial OM. Our study provides a new means for reconstructing the evolution of upwelling and terrestrial OM input in the inner shelf of the ECS over the last millennium.

Numerical Simulation Study of the Horizontal Submerged Jet Based on the Wray–Agarwal Turbulence Model - Bo Hu; Chuan Wang; Hui Wang; Qian Yu; Jinhua Liu; Yong Zhu; Jie Ge; Xinxin Chen; Yang Yang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The horizontal submerged jet (HSJ), as a special form of jet, is widely used in aerospace, food and drug, water engineering, and other industries. In order to further understand the mechanism of the HSJ, the Wray–Agarwal turbulence model was used to predict the HSJ with different incidence heights H/D and Reynolds number (Re) conditions in this paper. The results show that the jet horizontal height H/D has a large influence on the flow field structure. The unsteady flow within the flow field is dominated by vortexes. In addition, their distribution is relatively independent of H/D. Under different H/D conditions, the axial velocity distribution of the jet has very high similarity, all of them have an obvious velocity inflection point at x = 10D. When H/D is small, the wall attachment effect of the jet and the boundary layer effect generated at the bottom of the fluid domain have a certain role in maintaining the velocity of the jet near the wall, resulting in a significantly higher axial velocity than other H/D conditions, up to 1.29 times. In this paper, we thoroughly investigated the structure of the internal flow field and velocity distribution of the submerged horizontal jet. The results have a guiding significance for engineering practice and academic research.

Seasonal soil-plant nitrogen dynamics of a cordgrass salt marsh in response to coastal embankments in Eastern China - Ge Qin; Hongyu Feng; Hui Zhao; Lu Xia; Wen Yang; Yongqiang Zhao; Nasreen Jeelani; Shuqing An (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
The effects of coastal embankments on nitrogen (N) cycling in the Spartina alterniflora salt marsh have been extensively reported. However, it remains unclear effects of the embankment on the sizes of diverse N subpools in the plant-soil subsystems year-round. This study examined seasonal changes in various N subpools of plant subsystems; soil subsystems [e.g., soil organic N (SON), recalcitrant organic N (RON), labile organic N (LON), dissolved organic N (DON), ammonium N(NH+4 N), and nitrate N(NO3-N)]; N mineralization [e.g., soil net ammonification (R A ) and nitrification (R N ) rate]; and immobilization [e.g., microbial biomass N (MBN)] in embanked and adjacent S. alterniflora natural salt marshes on the coast of Eastern China. The embankment significantly reduced the litter N storage by 62.7–71.8% over the four seasons and decreased the root N storage by 53.0% during winter. The SON, LON, RON, and N H +4 N concentrations declined significantly by 43.0–60.2%, 35.8–64.8%, 44.9–59.0%, and 20.8–42.2%, respectively, over the four seasons following the embankment construction. Furthermore, the embankment dramatically reduced the DON concentrations by 21.9% in spring, 14.6% in summer, and 10.4% in winter, while notably diminishing the NO3 N concentrations by 33.4% in autumn and 44.9% in winter, and the R A and R N in spring and summer. However, the embankment clearly increased the MBN concentrations during summer and autumn, the NO3 N concentrations in spring, and the R A and R N in winter at different levels. Due to the decreased soil N inputs from plants, the embankment decreased the organic and inorganic N subpools every season to varying degrees, except for the NO3 N concentration in spring. We suggest that the decreased soil salinity following embankment establishment might increase the uptake of ions by microbes, while stimulating the production of MBN. Ultimately, the NO3 N and DON were two vital N sources for S. alterniflora , and plants absorbed N from the soil to promote their biomass, as well as N concentration and storage. This study is conducive toward understanding the mechanisms behind the effects of coastal embankments on the N transfer among various N subpools in the plant and soil systems.

Algal blooms (ABs) in inland lakes have caused adverse ecological effects, and health impairment of animals and humans. We used archived Landsat images to examine ABs in lakes (>1 km 2 ) around the globe over a 37‐year time span (1982–2018). Out of the 176032 lakes with area >1 km 2 detected globally, 863 were impacted by ABs, 708 had sufficiently long records to define a trend, and 66% exhibited increasing trends in frequency ratio (FRQR, ratio of the number of ABs events observed in a year in a given lake to the number of available Landsat images for that lake) or area ratio (AR, ratio of annual maximum area covered by ABs observed in a lake to the surface area of that lake), while 34% showed a decreasing trend. Across North America, an intensification of ABs severity was observed for FRQR ( p p p p

Influences of the 1855 AD Huanghe (Yellow River) Relocation on Sedimentary Organic Carbon Burial in the Southern Yellow Sea - Jianying Liu; Da-Wei Li; Yang Ding; Tiantian Ge; Weifang Chen; Chih-An Huh; Meixun Zhao (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
The Huanghe (Yellow River) supplies large amount of sediments and terrestrial organic carbon (OC) to the eastern Chinese marginal seas. A relocation of the Huanghe outlet from the southern Yellow Sea (YS) to the Bohai Sea occurred in 1855 AD, however, detailed knowledge about the impact of this relocation on sedimentary source and OC burial in Chinese marginal seas is still critically lacking. In this study, we present total OC content and its isotope (δ 13 C), along with bulk total organic carbon (TOC)/total nitrogen (TN) molar ratio and lipid biomarker contents, in a sediment core HH12 from the southern YS with sediment age spanning the last 300 years. We find that TOC and terrestrial lipid biomarker mass accumulation rates were lower between 1855 AD and 1950 AD than that prior to 1855 AD in core HH12; and in accordance, both TOC/TN ratio and δ 13 C records indicate a gradual decrease of terrigenous source contributions to sedimentary OC. This suggests that the relocation of the Huanghe outlet reduced the transport of terrestrial OC to the southern YS. However, the δ 13 C record also indicates a relative increase of terrestrial OC contribution to sedimentary OC after 1950 AD, and the most likely explanation is increased contributions from the old Huanghe delta erosion and Korean rivers. Future studies should focus on better constraining the variations of terrestrial and marine endmembers with δ 13 C and Δ 14 C analyses of specific biomarkers to examine these linkages.

Adaptive Network Design for Multiple Gliders Observation of Mesoscale Eddy - Zhanwen Gao; Ge Chen; Yang Song; Jie Zheng; Chunyong Ma (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
With its excellent endurance, good maneuverability and track controllability, glider has become one of the important equipment to obtain ocean field data. The network observation of multiple gliders will be the main approach of ocean observation in the future. However, how to plan the glider path in a reasonable way and how to design the optimal observation network consisting of multiple gliders in an eddy have not been well solved. As an effort to tackle this problem, an adaptive network design algorithm for multiple gliders in mesoscale eddies observation which referred as “Optimal Sampling” is proposed in this paper. Simulation experiments of tracking a target eddy in the South China Sea (SCS) show that the proposed algorithm cannot only realize the adaptive network design for multiple gliders, but also ensure the uniform sampling inside the eddy. Compared with the traditional method which samples eddy along a fixed path, the observation data obtained by the solution proposed in this paper are more valuable to describe the essential temperature characteristics of eddies. The residual errors computed from the interpolation of the sampled field is also smaller.

Bisphosphonate-related osteonecrosis of the jaw (BRONJ) is a clinical condition that specifically occurs in the oral cavity, characterized by retarded wound healing in oral mucosa accelerating the exposure of bone. Moreover, the pathological mechanism remains poorly understood. Gingival mesenchymal stem cells (GMSCs) play a critical role in gingival healing and soft tissue regeneration. Although previous studies have showed that bisphosphonates (BPs) are highly toxic to healthy GMSC, there is overall lack of direct evidence demonstrating the characterization of GMSCs derived from BRONJ patients. In present study, we isolated GMSCs for the first time from the central area of BRONJ patients’ gingiva (center-BRONJ GMSCs) and the peripheral area (peri-BRONJ GMSCs), and found that they exhibited decreased proliferation, adhesion, migration capacities and underwent early apoptosis in vitro compared control GMSCs. Notably, the central and peripheral BRONJ GMSCs transplantation in a mice excisional skin model also displayed lower cell survival rate and poor healing effects than that of controls. Mechanistically, TGF-β1 signaling pathway was suppressed not only in BRONJ patients’ gingival lesions but also in BRONJ GMSCs transplantation animal model. The results above suggested that under the microenvironment of BRONJ patients, the dysfunction of GMSCs and the suppressed TGF-β1 signaling pathway may be the vital factors in impaired gingival healing, thus contributing to persistent exposure of underlying bone and development of BRONJ. This study provides new insights into the prevention for BRONJ by improving the functions of GMSCs and upregulating TGF-β1 in accelerating gingival wound healing. Graphical Abstract Schematic illustration of the dysfunction of BRONJ GMSCs in vitro and BRONJ GMSCs transplantation in a mice skin model delaying cutaneous wound healing mainly via suppressing TGF-β1 signaling pathway.

Species Composition and Assemblages of Ichthyoplankton in Sansha Bay, Fujian Province, China - Yan Jiang; Bai-an Lin; Hao-yang He; Guang-mao Ding; Li-ting Yan; Ge Zhang; Min Liu; Lian-ming Zheng (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Sansha Bay (26.40−27.00°N, 119.50−120.20°E) is a typical semi-enclosed bay, located in northern Fujian Province, China, and adjacent to the East China Sea. The ichthyoplankton species composition and assemblage structure were investigated based on monthly sampling at 25 stations in April−September 2019, covering the important spring and summer spawning seasons in the region. Sampling was conducted in the first 3−5 days of the full moon or new moon phases using a standard plankton net through horizontal and vertical tows during daytime. In total, 25,819 ichthyoplankton samples were collected, of which 25,449 samples (i.e., 24,757 eggs and 692 larvae) were from horizontal tows. For horizontal tow samples, the ichthyoplankton were classified into 58 taxa in 15 orders and 23 families with a combination of external morphology and DNA barcoding analyses, from pelagic to demersal and benthic species. The dominant order was the Gobiiformes, including 23 species (39.7% of all species). The dominant taxa, in terms of relative abundance and frequency of occurrence, consisted of commercially important fishes, such as Setipinna tenuifilis (Valenciennes, 1848) (Engraulidae), Epinephelus akaara (Temminck and Schlegel, 1842) (Serraenidae), Collichthys lucidus (Richardson, 1844), Nibea albiflora (Richardson, 1846) (Sciaenidae), Acanthopagrus schlegelii (Bleeker, 1854), and Pagrus major (Temminck and Schlegel, 1843) (Sparidae), accounting for 78.9% of the horizontal tow samples. Low-valued and small-sized fishes, such as Stolephorus commersonnii Lacepède, 1803 (Engraulidae), Solea ovata Richardson, 1846 (Soleidae), Nuchequula nuchalis (Temminck and Schlegel, 1845), and Photopectoralis bindus (Valenciennes, 1835) (Leiognathidae), were also dominant species, accounting for 11.4% of the horizontal tow samples. The ichthyoplankton assemblage was categorized into five different temporal assemblages based on the cluster and nonmetric multidimensional scaling analysis, namely, April, May, June, July, and August−September (ANOSIM, Global R = 0.656, p < 0.01) with the highest density and richness of ichthyoplankton occurred in May. The spatial distribution pattern showed that the high density (ind./m 3 ) of ichthyoplankton occurred mainly in S12–S25 in Guanjingyang and along the Dongchong Peninsula coastline into Dongwuyang, while low density occurred mainly in S01–S11 in the northwest waters of Sandu Island (ANOVA, F = 8.270, p < 0.05). Temperature, salinity, and chlorophyll a were key factors structuring the ichthyoplankton assemblages in Sansha Bay. In addition, this study revealed the changes of the ichthyoplankton composition, density, and spatial distribution in Sansha Bay over the past three decades.

Identification of key gene networks controlling vernalization development characteristics of Isatis indigotica by full-length transcriptomes and gene expression profiles - Pan Wang; Dong Liu; Fu-Hong Yang; Hui Ge; Xin Zhao; Hong-Gang Chen; Tao Du (Physiology and Molecular Biology of Plants, 2021)
Isatis indigotica Fort . , as a common Chinese medicinal raw material, will lose its medicinal value if it blooms early, so it is highly valuable to clarify the induction mechanism of the vernalization of I. indigotica at low temperature. In this study, the concentrations of soluble sugar, proline, glutathione and zeatin in two germplasms of I. indigotica with different degrees of low temperature tolerance (Y1 and Y2) were determined at 10 days, 20 days and 30 days of low-temperature treatment, and the full-length transcriptome of 24 samples was sequenced by Nanopore sequencing with Oxford Nanopore Technologies (ONT). After that, the data of transcripts involved in the vernalization of I. indigotica at low temperature were obtained, and these transcripts were identified using weighted gene co-expression network analysis (WGCNA). The results revealed the massive accumulation of soluble sugar and proline in Y1 and Y2 after low temperature induction. A total of 18,385 new transcripts, 6168 transcription factors and 470 lncRNAs were obtained. Differential expression analysis showed that gibberellin, flavonoids, fatty acids and some processes related to low temperature response were significantly enriched. Eight key transcripts were identified by WGCNA, among which ONT.14640.1, ONT.9119.1, ONT.13080.2 and ONT.16007.1 encodes a flavonoid transporter, 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase 3 (NCED3), growth factor gene and L-aspartate oxidase in plants, respectively . It indicated that secondary metabolites such as hormones and flavonoids play an important role in the vernalization of I. indigotica . qRT-PCR proved the reliability of transcriptome results. These results provide important insights on the low-temperature vernalization of I. indigotica , and provide a research basis for analyzing the vernalization mechanism of I. indigotica .

Isolation of a novel adomavirus from cultured American eels, Anguilla rostrata , with haemorrhagic gill necrosis disease - Jin‐Xian Yang; Xi Chen; Ying‐Ying Li; Tie‐Ying Song; Jun‐Qing Ge (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2021)
Recently, the culture of American eels (Anguilla rostrate) in China has been impacted by emergence of a disease with signs of haemorrhagic gill necrosis. The gills of diseased eels are covered with petecchia and they bleed when the operculum is pressed. In this study, a novel American eel adomavirus (AEAdoV) was isolated from the diseased eels using the eel ovary cell line (EO). The virus proliferated in the EO cells with a maximum TCID 50 /ml of 10 6.29 ± 0.23 at 6 days post‐infection. The virions were non‐enveloped with a diameter of 75–85 nm and shown to be a DNA virus upon 5‐iodo‐2’‐deoxyuridine (IDU) treatment. PCR assays showed that AEAdoV encodes a superfamily 3 helicases (S3H) replicase and shared high similarities with Anguilla marmorata adomavirus (MEAdoV). Although no clinical signs or mortality was observed among the eels injected with AEAdoV, the virus was reisolated from livers, kidneys and gills of injected eels at 35 days post‐injection. Our results suggested that AEAdoV exhibited a latent infection in A. rostrata . The pathogenicity of the AEAdoV needs to be confirmed further.

SNP Development in Penaeus vannamei via Next-Generation Sequencing and DNA Pool Sequencing - Yongyu Huang; Lili Zhang; Hui Ge; Guodong Wang; Shiyu Huang; Zhangwu Yang (Fishes, 2021)
Next-generation sequencing and pool sequencing have been widely used in SNP (single-nucleotide polymorphism) detection and population genetics research; however, there are few reports on SNPs related to the growth of Penaeus vannamei. The purpose of this study was to call SNPs from rapid-growing (RG) and slow-growing (SG) individuals’ transcriptomes and use DNA pool sequencing to assess the reliability of SNPs. Two parameters were applied to detect SNPs. One parameter was the p-values generated using Fisher’s exact test, which were used to calculate the significance of allele frequency differences between RG and SG. The other one was the AFI (minor allele frequency imbalance), which was defined to highlight the fold changes in MAF (minor allele frequency) values between RG and SG. There were 216,015 hypothetical SNPs, which were obtained based on the transcriptome data. Finally, 104 high-quality SNPs and 96,819 low-quality SNPs were predicted. Then, 18 high-quality SNPs and 17 low-quality SNPs were selected to assess the reliability of the detection process. Here, 72.22% (13/18) accuracy was achieved for high-quality SNPs, while only 52.94% (9/17) accuracy was achieved for low-quality SNPs. These SNPs enrich the data for population genetics studies of P. vannamei and may play a role in the development of SNP markers for future breeding studies.

Establishment of a visualized isothermal nucleic acid amplification method for on‐site diagnosis of acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease in shrimp farm - Xiaohan Yang; Yu Dong; Chao Ma; Yi Qiao; Ge Jiang; Shiqi Chen; Jingquan Dong; Hui Shen; Song Gao (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2021)
Acute hepatopancreatic necrosis disease (AHPND) is a significant deadly infectious disease in the shrimp farming industry, causing serious economic losses globally every year. Because of the rapid progress speed, lack of effective treatment and high mortality rate of AHPND, monitoring with frequent diagnostic tests is vital for a successful prevention. The conventional histopathological diagnosis fell far short of the requirement for efficient monitoring, and the polymerase chain reaction (PCR)‐based molecular diagnostic methods that rely on sophisticated thermocycler and trained personnel are hardly applicable in the field. Combining the recombinase polymerase amplification (RPA) and the lateral flow strips (LFSs), a diagnostic method suitable for on‐site everyday monitoring of AHPND has been established in this study. This RPA‐LFS method targeted the binary toxic photorhabdus insect‐related genes PirA and PirB on a virulence plasmid of the AHPND‐causative Vibrio parahaemolyticus strains. The diagnostic test was completed within 30 min at 37°C and showed good specificity and good sensitivity of 20 fg DNA of the AHPND shrimp or one colony‐forming unit of the causative bacterium per reaction, which was better than the administration‐approved standard AP4 assay. Crude templates from sample boiling could be directly used. Tests of clinical samples showed 100% consistency of this method with the standard AP4 assay. This RPA‐LFS method can be a good choice for on‐site diagnosis of AHPND with quick response time, easy procedure and low demand for resources, and should have significant value for the control of spreading of this dangerous disease in farmed shrimp.

Ras subfamily GTPases regulate development, aflatoxin biosynthesis and pathogenicity in the fungus Aspergillus flavus - Zhuo Zhu; Gengli Ma; Mingkun Yang; Can Tan; Guang Yang; Sen Wang; Na Li; Feng Ge; Shihua Wang (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary Ras subfamily proteins are molecular switches in signal transduction pathways of many eukaryotes that regulate a variety of cellular processes. Here, the Ras subfamily, encoded by six genes, was identified in Aspergillus flavus : rasA , rasB , rasC , rab‐33 , rheb and rsr1 . The rsr1 deletion mutant (∆ rsr1 ), rheb deletion mutant (∆ rheb ) and double deletion mutant (∆ rheb/rsr1 ) displayed significantly decreased growth and sporulation. Sclerotia formation was significantly decreased for ∆ rheb or ∆ rheb/rsr1 but increased for ∆ rsr1 . Aflatoxin production was significantly increased in ∆ rheb but decreased in ∆ rsr1 and ∆ rheb/rsr1 . We found that rsr1 and rheb are crucial for the pathogenicity of A . flavus . Quantitative proteomics identified 520 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) for the ∆ rsr1 mutant and 133 DEPs for the ∆ rheb mutant. These DEPs were annotated in multiple biological processes and KEGG pathways in A . flavus . Importantly, we identified the cytokinesis protein SepA in the protein–protein interaction network of rsr1 , and deletion mutants showed that SepA has pleiotropic effects on growth and AF biosynthesis, which may depend on Rsr1 for regulation in A . flavus . Our results indicated that these Ras subfamily proteins exhibited functional redundancy with each other but there were also differences in A . flavus .

A Glider Simulation Model Based on Optimized Support Vector Regression for Efficient Coordinated Observation - Fangjie Yu; Zhiyuan Zhuang; Jie Yang; Ge Chen (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Multi-gliders have been widely deployed as an array in nowadays ocean observation for fine and long-term ocean research, especially in deep-sea exploration. However, the strong, variable ocean currents and the delayed information feedback of gliders are remaining huge challenges for the deployment of glider arrays which may cause that the observed data cannot meet the study needs and bring a prohibitive cost. In this paper, we develop a Glider Simulation Model (GSM) based on the support vector regression with the particle swarm optimization (PSO)-SVR algorithm to integrate the information feedback from gliders and ocean current data for rapid modeling to effectively predict the gliders’ trajectories. Based on the real-time predictive information of the trajectories, each glider can select future movement strategies. We utilize the in-suit datasets obtained by sea-wing gliders in ocean observation to train and test the simulation model. The results show that GSM has an effective and stable performance. The information obtained from the modeling approaches can be utilized for the optimization of the deployment of the glider arrays.

Ring distribution patterns—diversification or speciation? Comparative phylogeography of two small mammals in the mountains surrounding the Sichuan Basin - Yanqun Wang; Anderson Feijó; Jilong Cheng; Lin Xia; Zhixin Wen; Deyan Ge; Jian Sun; Liang Lu; Song Li; Qisen Yang (Molecular Ecology, 2021)
Studying the genetic differentiation in a unique geographical area contributes to understanding the process of speciation. Here, we explore the spatial genetic structure and underlying formation mechanism of two congeneric small mammal species ( Apodemus draco and A. chevrieri ), which are mainly distributed in the mountains surrounding the lowland Sichuan Basin, southwest China. We applied a set of comparative phylogeographical analyses to determine their genetic diversification patterns, combining mitochondrial ( Cytb and COI ) and nuclear (microsatellite loci) markers, with dense sampling throughout the range (411 A . draco from 21 sites and 191 A . chevrieri from 22 sites). Moreover, we performed three complementary statistical methods to investigate the correlation between genotype and geographical and environmental components, and predicted the potential suitable distributional range under the present and historical climate conditions. Our results suggest that both species have experienced allopatric differentiation and admixture in historical periods, resulting in a ring‐shape diversification, under the barrier effect of the Sichuan Basin. We infer that the tectonic events of the Qinghai–Tibetan Plateau and climatic oscillations during the Quaternary played an important role on the genetic divergence of the two species by providing environmental heterogeneity and geographical variation. Our study reveals a case of two sympatric small mammals following a ring‐shaped diversification pattern and provides insight into the process of differentiation.

Effects of Korean Pine Basal Area in Mixed Broadleaved–Korean Pine Forest Stands on Its Natural Regeneration in Northeast China - Xiaowen Ge; Jiaojun Zhu; Deliang Lu; Chunyu Zhu; Pingzhen Gao; Xiaoyan Yang (Forest Science, 2021)
Understanding the natural regeneration of Korean pine (Pinus koraiensis Sieb. et Zucc.) in mixed broadleaved–Korean pine (MBK) forests is crucial for MBK forest conservation and secondary deciduous broadleaved forest restoration. We hypothesized the ratio of Korean pine basal area (RKp) in MBK stands affected its natural regeneration. Regeneration censuses, including the height, root collar diameter, age, and growth stages (younger seedling, older seedling, smaller sapling, and taller sapling) of Korean pine, were conducted in northeast China. Results indicated the stem density and age composition of younger seedlings were positively correlated with RKp, whereas those of the saplings were negatively correlated with RKp. In the stands with lower RKp (<80% in Lesser Khingan Mountains [LKM]; <40% in Lushuihe Forestry Bureau [LFB]), individuals in all growth stages regenerated well with an age span of 65 yr. However, the regeneration of taller saplings was severely inhibited with increasing RKp (LKM: RKp ≥ 80%; LFB: RKp ≥ 40%). In summary, RKp significantly affected the natural regeneration of Korean pine in MBK forests. The basal-area thresholds limiting regeneration were found to be 80% in LKM stands and 40% in LFB stands. These basal-area thresholds provided evidence of why the zonal climax was MBK forests rather than pure Korean pine forests.

Evaluating the reliability of time series land cover maps by exploiting the hidden Markov model - Guang Yang; Shenghui Fang; Wenbing Gong; Yaolong Zhao; Mengyu Ge (Stochastic Environmental Research and Risk Assessment, 2021)
Time series land cover maps are important materials for the work related to land use and land cover change. Satellite remote sensing images prove advantageous in fast mapping with low cost. In most time series land cover products yielded by the satellite remote sensing images, a number of illogical transitions exist between different time phases. The time series land cover products cannot exactly reflect the real land cover types and land cover changes for each pixel. The accuracy evaluation based on the limited ground truth cannot well guide the users because the reliability of different pixels of the land cover products is unknown. A generic model for the reliability evaluation of time series land cover products should be developed based on a strong theoretical frame. In order to better guide the use of the land cover products, this paper proposed an approach to evaluate the reliability of time series land cover products by exploiting the joint probability of hidden Markov model (HMM), in which the classification performance and the spatio-temporal relationships were taken into account. We applied the proposed evaluation method on the time series land cover maps of Poyang Lake Eco-economic Region in China. The reliability of the land cover products was presented by the grading of the joint probability of HMM. The results effectively reflected the classification performance, the spatio-temporal relationships and even the quality of the data source.

Pairwise‐rotated EOFs of global cloud cover and their linkages to sea surface temperature - Yanrong Li; Jinming Ge; Zixiang Dong; Xiaoyu Hu; Xuan Yang; Meihua Wang; Zihang Han (International Journal of Climatology, 2021)
Sea surface temperature (SST) could significantly affect the dynamic and thermodynamic conditions of the atmospheric circulation and consequently the cloud variations. Here we use several different satellite records to extract the spatial‐time modes of total cloud cover (TCC) by employing a pairwise rotation of Empirical Orthogonal Function analysis. The results show that the first two principal oscillation modes of TCC are closely associated with the Central Pacific El Niño Southern Oscillation (CP ENSO) and Eastern Pacific (EP) ENSO during the 1980s–2000s, while the ENSO‐like mode of TCC can provide an evident contribution to the TCC change during the 2000s–2010s. In CP El Niño, the cloud vertical structure decomposed from CloudSat observations shows an increase of cloud occurrence frequency near the equator and around 40°, and a decrease around 10° in both hemispheres, suggesting a symmetric tightening of Hadley cell (HC). In addition, cloud occurrence frequency increases around 180°, which is accompanied by an eastward shift of Walker circulation (WC). In EP El Niño, TCC increases (decreases) over the Equatorial Eastern Pacific (Western Pacific warm pool), and decreases asymmetrically over the subtropical Pacific Ocean, indicating a weakening of WC and an asymmetric tightening of HC, respectively. The different responses of circulation and clouds to CP and EP El Niño highlight the nonlinearity of El Niño SST forcing. We also construct a trend mode of TCC to investigate cloud long‐term responses to SST warming by transferring the linear trends of the rest modes to a specific mode. The principal components (PCs) of TCC trend modes are strongly correlated with global‐mean SST (GSST) with correlation a coefficient of about 0.60 during the 1980s–2000s and 0.45 during the 2000s–2010s, suggesting a continued influence of global SST warming on TCC. The global TCC change is mainly influenced by the combined effects of Atlantic Multi‐decadal Oscillation (AMO), Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) and Indian Ocean Dipole (IOD). The variation about the trend mode of TCC is closely associated with PDO and IOD.

Varying support for abundance‐centre and congeneric‐competition hypotheses along elevational transects of mammals - Zhixin Wen; Deyan Ge; Anderson Feijó; Yuanbao Du; Jilong Cheng; Jian Sun; Yanqun Wang; Lin Xia; Qisen Yang (Journal of Biogeography, 2021)
Aim Whether species are most abundant at their geographic range centre and increasingly rare towards range limits (the abundance‐centre hypothesis, ACH) has weak empirical support in birds along elevational gradients. This may be due to empirical limitations—most studies do not capture the multi‐faceted nature of elevational gradients or species interactions. We examine the ACH and an alternative that the abundance maximum of elevational sympatric congeners will occur at different elevations along a gradient (the congeneric‐competition hypothesis, CCH). Location Twelve elevational gradients in Central and Southwest China. Taxon Five small mammal species, including three congeneric species. Methods The ACH was tested by fitting abundance patterns to Huisman‐Olff‐Fresco (HOF) models and measuring the relative elevational distance between a species' abundance‐weighted range centre ( RC Abu ) and its elevational range centre. The CCH was tested by calculating the elevational overlap value of each congeneric pair and the relative elevational distance ( RC AbuDiff ) between the RC Abu s of congeners. Results Abundances of each species showed diverse patterns along different gradients. For all species, a unimodal symmetric pattern appeared at most once among the studied gradients and found in only four (8.7%) of the total cases. Most (90.9%) of the Apodemus congeneric pairs had a high elevational overlap (above 75%). For each of the three congeneric pairs, 40.0% to 50.0% of the cases showed RC AbuDiff values > 0.25, suggesting that the congeners’ RC Abu s were separated by at least one elevational climate zone. Main conclusions Species' elevational abundance patterns may vary among different elevational gradients in the same geographic region. The elevational abundance patterns of five mammalian species were rarely consistent with the ACH after the spatial variability of the patterns was considered. The abundance patterns of congeneric species showed moderate support for the CCH.

Mapping the relation between cortical convolution and structural/functional brain architectures could provide deep insights into the mechanisms of brain development, evolution and diseases. In our previous studies, we found a unique gyral folding pattern, termed a 3-hinge, which was defined as the conjunction of three gyral crests. The uniqueness of the 3-hinge was evidenced by its thicker cortex and stronger fiber connections than other gyral regions. However, the role that 3-hinges play in cortico-cortical connective architecture remains unclear. To this end, we conducted MRI studies by constructing structural cortico-cortical connective networks based on a fine-granular cortical parcellation, the parcels of which were automatically labeled as 3-hinge, 2-hinge (ordinary gyrus) or sulcus. On human brains, 3-hinges possess significantly higher degrees, strengths and betweennesses than 2-hinges, suggesting that 3-hinges could serve more like hubs in the cortico-cortical connective network. This hypothesis gains supports from human functional network analyses, in which 3-hinges are involved in more global functional networks than ordinary gyri. In addition, 3-hinges could serve as ‘connector’ hubs rather than ‘provincial’ hubs and they account for a dominant proportion of nodes in the high-level ‘backbone’ of the network. These structural results are reproduced on chimpanzee and macaque brains, while the roles of 3-hinges as hubs become more pronounced in higher order primates. Our new findings could provide a new window to the relation between cortical convolution, anatomical connection and brain function.
