DUSP2 Deletion Inhibits Macrophage Migration by Inhibiting ERK Activation in Zebrafish - Yu-Jiao Li; Xin-Liang Wang; Ling-Yu Shi; Zong-Yi Wang; Zi-Ang Zhao; Shu-Chao Ge; Bing Hu (Fishes, 2023)
Dual-specificity phosphatase 2 (DUSP2) regulates the activation of members of the mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) family, which is involved in a variety of cellular processes including cell proliferation, differentiation, apoptosis, and migration. DUSP2 also regulates the expression of inflammatory mediators in macrophages; however, it remains unknown whether DUSP2 participates in macrophage migration. Here, using the tail fin injury model in zebrafish larvae, we found that the deletion of DUSP2 inhibited the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines and macrophage chemokines. Moreover, live imaging results showed that the migration of macrophages to the injury site was inhibited after DUSP2 deletion. This inhibitory effect was mediated through the reduced activation of extracellular regulated protein kinases (ERK) in DUSP2 knockout zebrafish.

A Spacetime Odyssey of Neural Progenitors to Generate Neuronal Diversity - Mengmeng Ge; Amirhossein Sheikhshahrokh; Xiang Shi; Yu-Hong Zhang; Zhiheng Xu; Qing-Feng Wu (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2023)
To understand how the nervous system develops from a small pool of progenitors during early embryonic development, it is fundamentally important to identify the diversity of neuronal subtypes, decode the origin of neuronal diversity, and uncover the principles governing neuronal specification across different regions. Recent single-cell analyses have systematically identified neuronal diversity at unprecedented scale and speed, leaving the deconstruction of spatiotemporal mechanisms for generating neuronal diversity an imperative and paramount challenge. In this review, we highlight three distinct strategies deployed by neural progenitors to produce diverse neuronal subtypes, including predetermined, stochastic, and cascade diversifying models, and elaborate how these strategies are implemented in distinct regions such as the neocortex, spinal cord, retina, and hypothalamus. Importantly, the identity of neural progenitors is defined by their spatial position and temporal patterning factors, and each type of progenitor cell gives rise to distinguishable cohorts of neuronal subtypes. Microenvironmental cues, spontaneous activity, and connectional pattern further reshape and diversify the fate of unspecialized neurons in particular regions. The illumination of how neuronal diversity is generated will pave the way for producing specific brain organoids to model human disease and desired neuronal subtypes for cell therapy, as well as understanding the organization of functional neural circuits and the evolution of the nervous system.

Experimental Study on the Stability and Wave Force of a Breakwater Transition under Multiangle Oblique Waves - Guangsheng Wang; Longzai Ge; Tong Yu; Yajing Zhang; Songgui Chen (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
Based on the failure and instability of different structural transitions of offshore breakwater, this paper provides a basis for understanding the instability mechanism and also provides suggestions for engineering repair. Based on the breakwater project in the regulation of the bay of Shandong Province, physical model tests with a scale of 1:36 were carried out. This study revealed the wave characteristics, the force performance, and the instability mechanism in the transition. In the test, the relationships between 5°, 15°, 35°, and 75° oblique waves, the wave force, and the stable weight of the Accropode were simulated, revealing that the generation of a shock wave current is related to the wave direction angle, which results in the local wave height increasing by 2.05 times. The result that the design weight of the armour block is unstable and stable after optimization is obtained. The wave force of the caisson of the transition was concentrated in the anti-arc section of the superstructure, and the maximum horizontal force, buoyancy force, and impact pressure were 935.6 kN, 419.1 kN, and 65.9 kPa, respectively. The instability mechanism was determined as the poor connection between the accropode and the caisson, and the wave energy concentration. Compared with the calculation results of the standard formula, the correction coefficients of the overtopping volume, the wave crest elevation, the wave force, and the Accropode weight at the transition of breakwater were 1.95, 1.97, 1.60, and 4.0, respectively. The test results have solved the practical problems of the project and can also provide a reference for similar projects.

Genome-wide DNA methylation and transcription analysis reveal the potential epigenetic mechanism of heat stress response in the sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus - Mengyang Chang; Jianlong Ge; Meijie Liao; Xiaojun Rong; Yingeng Wang; Bin Li; Xinrong Li; Jinjin Wang; Zheng Zhang; Yongxiang Yu; Chunyuan Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
DNA methylation is an important epigenetic modification that regulates many biological processes. The sea cucumber Apostichopus japonicus often suffers from heat stress that affects its growth and leads to significant economic losses. In this study, the mRNA expression patterns and DNA methylation characteristics in the body wall of A. japonicus under heat stress were analyzed by whole-genome bisulfite sequencing (WGBS) and transcriptome sequencing (RNA-seq). We found that CpG was the main DNA methylation type, and heat stress caused a significant increase in the overall methylation level and methylation rate, especially in the intergenic region of the A. japonicus genome. In total, 1,409 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 17,927 differentially methylated genes (DMGs) were obtained by RNA-seq and WGBS, respectively. Association analysis between DNA methylation and transcription identified 569 negatively correlated genes in both DMGs and DEGs, which indicated that DNA methylation affects on transcriptional regulation in response to heat stress. These negatively correlated genes were significantly enriched in pathways related to energy metabolism and immunoregulation, such as the thyroid hormone signaling pathway, renin secretion, notch signaling pathway and microRNAs in cancer. In addition, potential key genes, including heat shock protein ( hsp70 ), calcium-activated chloride channel regulator 1( clca1 ), and tenascin R ( tnr ), were obtained and their expression and methylation were preliminarily verified. The results provide a new perspective for epigenetic and transcriptomic studies of A. japonicus response to heat stress, and provide a reference for breeding sea cucumbers resistant to high temperatures.

ESPC-BCS-Net: A network-based CS method for underwater image compression and reconstruction - Zhenyue Li; Ge Chen; Fangjie Yu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
The Internet of Underwater Things (IoUT) is a typical energy-limited and bandwidth-limited system where the technical bottleneck is the asymmetry between the massive demand for information access and the limited communication bandwidth. Therefore, storing and transmitting high-quality underwater images is a challenging task. The data measured by cameras need to be effectively compressed before transmission to reduce storage and reconstruc-ted with minor errors, which is the best solution. Compressed sensing (CS) theory breaks through the Nyquist sampling theorem and has been widely used to reconstruct sparse signals accurately. For adaptive sampling underwater images and improving the reconstruction performance, we propose the ESPC-BCS-Net by combining the advantages of CS and Deep Learning. The ESPC-BCS-Net consists of three parts: Sampling-Net, ESPC-Net, and BCS-Net. The parameters (e.g. sampling matrix, sparse transforms, shrinkage thresholds, etc.) in ESPC-BCS-Net are learned end-to-end rather than hand-crafted. The Sampling-Net achieves adaptive sampling by replacing the sampling matrix with a convolutional layer. The ESPC-Net implements image upsampling, while the BCS-Net is used to image reconstruction. The efficient sub-pixel layer of ESPC-Net effectively avoids blocking artifacts. The visual and quantitative evaluation of the experimental results shows that the underwater image reconstruction still performs well when the CS ratio is 0.1 and the PSNR of the reconstructed underwater images is above 29.

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.

Positional cloning identified HvTUBULIN8 as the candidate gene for round lateral spikelet (RLS) in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) - Dandan Qin; Gang Liu; Rui Liu; Chunchao Wang; Fuchao Xu; Qing Xu; Yu Ling; Guoqing Dong; Yanchun Peng; Shuangtao Ge; Ganggang Guo; Jing Dong; et al. (Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2023)
Key message Map-based cloning, subcellular localization, virus-induced-gene-silencing and transcriptomic analysis reveal HvTUB8 as a candidate gene with pleiotropic effects on barley spike and leaf development via ethylene and chlorophyll metabolism. Abstract Barley lateral spikelet morphology and grain shape play key roles in grain physical quality and yield. Several genes and QTLs for these traits have been cloned or fine mapped previously. Here, we report the phenotypic and genotypic analysis of a barley mutant with round lateral spikelet (rls) from cv. Edamai 934. rls had round lateral spikelet, short but round grain, shortened awn, thick glume and dark green leaves. Histocytologic and ultrastructural analysis revealed that the difference of grain shape of rls was caused by change of cell arrangement in glume, and the dark leaf color resulted from enlarged chloroplast. HvTUBULIN8 ( HvTUB8 ) was identified as the candidate gene for rls by combination of RNA-Seq, map-based-cloning, virus-induced-gene-silencing (VIGS) and protein subcellular location. A single G-A substitution at the third exon of HvTUB8 resulted in change of Cysteine 354 to tyrosine. Furthermore, the mutant isoform Hvtub8 could be detected in both nucleus and cytoplasm, whereas the wild-type protein was only in cytoplasm and granular organelles of wheat protoplasts. Being consistent with the rare phenotype, the “A” allele of HvTUB8 was only detected in rls , but not in a worldwide barley germplasm panel with 400 accessions. VIGS confirmed that HvTUB8 was essential to maintain spike integrity. RNA-Seq results suggested that HvTUB8 may control spike morphogenesis via ethylene homeostasis and signaling, and control leaf color through chlorophyll metabolism. Collectively, our results support HvTUB8 as a candidate gene for barley spike and leaf morphology and provide insight of a novel mechanism of it in barley development.

Darwin's naturalization conundrum reconciled by changes of species interactions - Jiang Wang; Shao‐Peng Li; Yuan Ge; Xiao‐Yan Wang; Song Gao; Tong Chen; Fei‐Hai Yu (Ecology, 2023)
Although phylogenetic distance between native and exotic species has a close link with their interactions, it is still unclear how environmental stresses and species interactions influence the relationship between phylogenetic distance and biological invasions. Here we assessed the effect of invader–native phylogenetic distance on the growth of the invader ( Symphyotrichum subulatum ) under three levels of drought (no, moderate, or intense drought). Under no drought, interspecific competition between close relatives was the dominant process and native communities more closely related to the invader showed higher resistance to invasion, supporting Darwin's naturalization hypothesis. In contrast, under intense drought, facilitation between close relatives by mutualism with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) became more important, and the invader became more successful in their more closely related native communities, supporting the preadaptation hypothesis. The colonization rate of AMF of the invader was higher in more closely related native communities regardless of the drought treatment, but it was only positively related to invader biomass under intense drought. Therefore, the shift of species interactions from competition to facilitation may be ascribed to the promotion of AMF to invasion occurring under intense drought, which leads to the effect of closely related natives on the invader shifting from negative to positive. Our results provide a new angle to resolve Darwin's naturalization conundrum from the change of species interactions along a stress gradient, and provide important clues for invasion management when species interactions change in response to global climatic change.

An offshore subsurface thermal structure inversion method by coupling ensemble learning and tide model for the South Yellow Sea - Fangjie Yu; Fengzhi Sun; Jianchao Li; Ge Chen (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
The South Yellow Sea Cold Water Mass (SYSCWM), which occurs in the South Yellow Sea (SYS) during summer, significantly impacts the hydrological characteristics and marine ecosystems but lacks fine interior data. With satellite observations, significant achievements have been made in reconstructing high-resolution ocean subsurface thermohaline structure based on machine learning. However, the accuracy of offshore subsurface parameter estimation will be affected due to the macro-tidal environment and fewer in situ observations. In this paper, we coupled the TPXO tide model and Light Gradient Boosting Machine algorithm to develop an inversion model of offshore subsurface thermal structure for the SYS using sea surface data and in situ observations. After light modelling, the subsurface temperature structure in the SYS is retrieved from sea surface parameters with a spatial resolution of 0.25° at depths of 0-55 m. Observation-based dataset (ARMOR3D) and in situ observations are used for model evaluation. According to the validation of the mooring buoy observations, the overall coefficient of determination (R 2 ), which determines the percentage of variance in the dependent variable that can be explained by the independent variable, is more than 0.95. Furthermore, the R 2 is improved by 12% due to coupling tide model below the thermocline during the maturity stage of SYSCWM, which is helpful for a better reconstruction of SYSCWM. Comparing with the cruise data, the average R 2 of the proposed model is 0.927 which is slightly better than the accuracy of the observation-based ARMOR3D dataset. Since the R 2 exceeds 0.8 in the most area of 121°E~123.5°E, 33°N~36°N, the reconstruction is reliable in this area. The method provides a new explorable direction for reconstructing the ocean thermal structure in offshore areas.

Visualization and quantification of carbon “rusty sink” by rice root iron plaque: Mechanisms, functions, and global implications - Liang Wei; Zhenke Zhu; Bahar S. Razavi; Mouliang Xiao; Maxim Dorodnikov; Lichao Fan; Hongzhao Yuan; Andrey Yurtaev; Yu Luo; Weiguo Cheng; Yakov Kuzyakov; Jinshui Wu; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2022)
Paddies contain 78% higher organic carbon (C) stocks than adjacent upland soils, and iron (Fe) plaque formation on rice roots is one of the mechanisms that traps C. The process sequence, extent and global relevance of this C stabilization mechanism under oxic/anoxic conditions remains unclear. We quantified and localized the contribution of Fe plaque to organic matter stabilization in a microoxic area (rice rhizosphere) and evaluated roles of this C trap for global C sequestration in paddy soils. Visualization and localization of pH by imaging with planar optodes, enzyme activities by zymography, and root exudation by 14 C imaging, as well as upscale modeling enabled linkage of three groups of rhizosphere processes that are responsible for C stabilization from the micro‐ (root) to the macro‐ (ecosystem) levels. The 14 C activity in soil (reflecting stabilization of rhizodeposits) with Fe 2+ addition was 1.4–1.5 times higher than that in the control and phosphate addition soils. Perfect co‐localization of the hotspots of β‐glucosidase activity (by zymography) with root exudation ( 14 C) showed that labile C and high enzyme activities were localized within Fe plaques. Fe 2+ addition to soil and its microbial oxidation to Fe 3+ by radial oxygen release from rice roots increased Fe plaque (Fe 3+ ) formation by 1.7–2.5 times. The C amounts trapped by Fe plaque increased by 1.1 times after Fe 2+ addition. Therefore, Fe plaque formed from amorphous and complex Fe (oxyhydr)oxides on the root surface act as a “rusty sink” for organic matter. Considering the area of coverage of paddy soils globally, upscaling by model revealed the radial oxygen loss from roots and bacterial Fe oxidation may trap up to 130 Mg C in Fe plaques per rice season. This represents an important annual surplus of new and stable C to the existing C pool under long‐term rice cropping.

Numerical and Experimental Research on Rectification Measures for a Contraction Diversion Pier in a Pumping Station - Wentao Xu; Li Cheng; Kailian Du; Lei Yu; Yi Ge; Jiali Zhang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
In order to improve the flow state of a forebay, a contraction diversion pier is discovered, the geometric parameters of which affect the improvement of the flow state. In this paper, the standard k-ε model in the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) numerical simulation method is used to research the flow state improvement of the forebay with a contraction diversion pier. In our research, the single factor method is used to analyze the influence of different geometric parameters. Then, the optimal geometric parameters of the contraction diversion pier are given. Results show that the contraction diversion pier can be used to concentrate the water flow. In the area where reflux is formed, the contraction diversion guides water flow along the diversion pier wall. In particular, when the retractable diversion pier is located in the middle of a reflux zone, the water backflow is effectively reduced, the flow state is improved, and the inlet condition of the pump is optimized. By comparing the cross-sectional streamlines, the velocity contour, the normal velocity uniformity of the longitudinal section, and the normal weighted mean angle, the optimal geometric parameters of the contraction diversion pier are obtained as follows: the distance from the contraction pier to the inlet sump is 0.1 L, the contraction angle is 20°, and the length of pier is 0.3 L.

(Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2022)
The attainment of suitable ambient air quality standards is a matter of great concern for successfully hosting the XXIV Olympic Winter Games (OWG). Transport patterns and potential sources of pollutants in Zhangjiakou (ZJK) were investigated using pollutant monitoring datasets and a dispersion model. The PM 2.5 concentration during February in ZJK has increased slightly (28%) from 2018 to 2021, mostly owing to the shift of main potential source regions of west-central Inner Mongolia and Mongolian areas (2015–18) to the North China Plain and northern Shanxi Province (NCPS) after 2018. Using CO as an indicator, the relative contributions of the different regions to the receptor site (ZJK) were evaluated based on the source-receptor-relationship method (SRR) and an emission inventory. We found that the relative contribution of pollutants from NCPS increased from 33% to 68% during 2019–21. Central Inner Mongolia (CIM) also has an important impact on ZJK under unfavorable weather conditions. This study demonstrated that the effect of pollution control measures in the NCPS and CIM should be strengthened to ensure that the air quality meets the standard during the XXIV OWG.

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.

Genome characterization and comparative analysis among three swimming crab species - Ming Liu; Shanshan Ge; Shivish Bhandari; Chunlei Fan; Yu Jiao; Chunlei Gai; Youhong Wang; Hongjun Liu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
In this study we sequenced the genomes of three economically important swimming crabs Portunus trituberculatus, Charybdis japonica , and Callinectes sapidus using the next-generation sequencing approach and made a basic assembly. The genomes of the three species are characterized with high heterozygosity (>1.2%) and high repeat content (>50%). Genome comparative analysis revealed 40 long conserved fragments (>5,000 bp) among the three species, most of them are involved in cardiac-related biological process. Relative higher genome similarity was found between P. trituberculatus and C. japonica that are belong to different subfamilies, compared to that between P. trituberculatus and C. sapidus which are from the same subfamily. It is inconsistent with their phylogenetic evolutionary trees inferred from previous mitochondrial DNA coding fragments and a conserved ANK2 protein fragment from this study. We speculated that the high genome similarity between P. trituberculatus and C. japonica might be attributed to their same inhabit range in which the genome is subject to the same environment selection, and the inconsistence between genome similarity and phylogenetic relationship is caused by the different evolutionary rates of coding DNA and non-coding DNA under environment selection.

Conditions of Mainland China’s Island Ecosystems and Associated Influencing Factors: Integrated Assessment of 42 Typical Island Ecosystems - Zhiyuan Ma; Weiwei Yu; Wanting Zhang; Feiyang Ge; Bin Chen; Wenjia Hu; Dian Zhang; Jianji Liao; Hao Huang; Yuanmin Sun; Haiping Huang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Although China possesses a large number of islands, knowledge of their overall ecological condition is limited on a national scale. Accordingly, this study developed a comprehensive and quantitative island ecosystem assessment framework that incorporates environmental quality, biological structure, and landscape patterns. The framework was applied to 42 typical, representative islands within China’s coastal regions, including different climatic zones, area sizes, populations, and substratum lithologies. Results showed that the value range of the comprehensive index of island ecosystem condition ( CI island ) was significant (from 52.33 to 89.53, 71.72 average), and 85.4% of islands scored either “high” or “good,” indicative of their exceptional condition. However, conditions varied among different island components, indicating different challenges. Environmental quality index ( I env ) values ranged from 60.70 to 94.80 (79.72 average), where primary threats were seawater nutrient pollution, petroleum, and marine organism metal contamination. Biological structure index ( I bio ) values ranged from 43.50 to 89.40 (66.10 average), where primary threats were vegetation destruction and a reduction in marine biodiversity within intertidal and subtidal zones. Landscape pattern index ( I land ) values varied significantly (from 6 to 100, 72.36 average), where a key characteristic of highly developed islands was low natural landscape (vegetation) coverage. Conditions also varied among island climate zones, lithologies, area sizes, and levels of human habitation. Additionally, island ecosystem conditions were influenced by both natural and anthropogenic factors as well as area size, population, and GDP. Although distance to the mainland significantly correlated to ( I bio ), and ( CI island ), these parameters did not significantly correlate to ( I env ), which might be explained by that environmental quality was generally conditional on large-scale environments. This assessment is intended to provide a holistic perspective on island conditions in China while identifying key challenges and associated driving factors, which will greatly aid in establishing island-specific sustainable management practices.

Traditionally, transfer RNAs (tRNAs) specifically decoded messenger RNA (mRNA) and participated in protein translation. tRNA-derived fragments (tRFs), also known as tRNA-derived small RNAs (tsRNAs), are generated by the specific cleavage of pre- and mature tRNAs and are a class of newly defined functional small non-coding RNAs (sncRNAs). Following the different cleavage positions of precursor or mature tRNA, tRFs are classified into seven types, 5′-tRNA half, 3′-tRNA half, tRF-1, 5′U-tRF, 3′-tRF, 5′-tRF, and i-tRF. It has been demonstrated that tRFs have a diverse range of biological functions in cellular processes, which include inhibiting protein translation, modulating stress response, regulating gene expression, and involvement in cell cycles and epigenetic inheritance. Emerging evidences have indicated that tRFs in extracellular vesicles (EVs) seem to act as regulatory molecules in various cellular processes and play essential roles in cell-to-cell communication. Furthermore, the dysregulation of EV-associated tRFs has been associated with the occurrence and progression of a variety of cancers and they can serve as novel potential biomarkers for cancer diagnosis. In this review, the biogenesis and classification of tRFs are summarized, and the biological functions of EV-associated tRFs and their roles as potential biomarkers in human diseases are discussed.

Phytoplankton Species Diversity Patterns and Associated Driving Factors in China’s Jiulong River Estuary: Roles That Nutrients and Nutrient Ratios Play - Feiyang Ge; Zhiyuan Ma; Bin Chen; Yu Wang; Xiaoqian Lu; Shenqun An; Dian Zhang; Wanting Zhang; Weiwei Yu; Wenxuan Han; Xingguang Yu; Zhenghua Liu; et al. (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Understanding diversity patterns and associated driving factors are the critical topics in macroecology and conservation biology. Phytoplankton are highly susceptible to environmental changes in estuaries, particularly eutrophication. This study examined phytoplankton alpha and beta diversity using investigation data in May (springtime), August (summer) and November (autumn) 2009 in China’s Jiulong River estuary, where it was easily polluted because of considerable discharge from a highly dense human population and low self-purification capacity with its limited river basin area, potentially resulting in eutrophication and then influencing phytoplankton diversity. Potential influencing factors were also explored, including dissolved oxygen, salinity, nutrients, nutrient ratios, geographic and hydrologic distance, and so on. The results indicated that Shannon’s index ( H’ ) and Pielou’s index ( J ) decreased from the estuary’s upper to middle and then increased from middle to lower reaches, Simpson’s ( D ) observed the opposite trend and species number ( S ) gradually increased from the estuary’s upper to lower reaches. For beta diversity, all the indices showed a gradual decrease trend from the estuary’s upper to lower reaches, where also, turnover dominated beta diversity for all seasons. It is noteworthy that the significant roles that nutrients and nutrient ratios played in shaping phytoplankton diversity patterns and the nutrient balance were characterized by excess nitrogen (N) and silicon (Si) and limited phosphorus (P), which could potentially cause diatom blooms. Findings also showed that decreasing Si concentrations can help to reduce overall pollution levels as well as the restoration of the estuary’s ecosystem better than just reducing N alone. Accordingly, this study advocates for the protection of the entire estuary system with particular emphasis on its upper reaches. Moreover, greater attention should also be paid to impacts associated with N input and nutrient ratio trade-offs to the prospective watershed management of this estuary. This study provides a practical approach to explore estuarine diversity in a comprehensive way, which can inform effective biodiversity conservation and also be applied to other marine ecosystems to better guide sustainable management and conservation practices.

Characterization of Mesenchymal Stem Cells Derived from Bisphosphonate-Related Osteonecrosis of the Jaw Patients’ Gingiva - Mengyu Li; Jiajia Wang; Yejia Yu; Yuqiong Zhou; Yueqi Shi; Wenjie Zhang; Geehun Son; Jing Ge; Jun Zhao; Chi Yang; Shaoyi Wang (Stem Cell Reviews and Reports, 2022)
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.

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.

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.

Research on Improving the Working Efficiency of Hydraulic Jet Submarine Cable Laying Machine - Zhifei Lu; Chen Cao; Yongqiang Ge; Jiamin He; Zhou Yu; Jiawang Chen; Xinlong Zheng (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
The anchoring and hooking of ships, bedrock friction and biological corrosion threaten the safety and stability of submarine cables. A hydraulic jet submarine cable laying machine manages to bury the submarine cables deep into the seabed, and effectively reduces the occurrence of external damage to the submarine cables. This machine uses a hydraulic jet system to realize trenching on the seabed. However, the hydraulic jet submarine cable laying machine has complicated operation and high power consumption with high requirements on the mother ship, and it is not yet the mainstream trenching method. In this paper, a mathematical model for the hydraulic jet nozzle of the submarine cable laying machine is established, and parameters that affect the trenching efficiency are studied. The effects of jet target distance, flow, angle and nozzle spacing on the working efficiency of the burying machine are analyzed by setting up a double-nozzle model. The results of the theory, numerical simulation and experiment show that the operational efficiency of the hydraulic jet submarine cable laying machine can be distinctly improved by setting proper jet conditions and parameters.

Interaction between piperine and genes associated with sciatica and its mechanism based on molecular docking technology and network pharmacology - Jiu-wang Yu; Hong-wei Yuan; Li-dao Bao; Leng-ge Si (Molecular Diversity, 2021)
Piperine is the main active component of Piper longum L., which is also the main component of anti-sciatica Mongolian medicine Naru Sanwei pill. It has many pharmacological activities such as anti-inflammatory and immune regulation. This paper aims to preliminarily explore the potential mechanism of piperine in the treatment of sciatica through network pharmacology and molecular docking. TCMSP, ETCM database and literature mining were used to collect the active compounds of Piper longum L. Swiss TargetPrediction and SuperPred server were used to find the targets of compounds. At the same time, CTD database was used to collect the targets of sciatica. Then the above targets were compared and analyzed to select the targets of anti-sciatica in Piper longum L. The Go (gene ontology) annotation and KEGG pathway of the targets were enriched and analyzed by Metascape database platform. The molecular docking between the effective components and the targets was verified by Autodock. After that, the sciatica model of rats was established and treated with piperine. The expression level of inflammatory factors and proteins in the serum and tissues of rat sciatic nerve were detected by ELISA and Western blot. HE staining and immunohistochemistry were carried out on the sciatica tissues of rats. The results showed that Piper longum L. can regulate the development of sciatica and affect the expressions of PPARG and NF-kB1 through its active ingredient piperine, and there is endogenous interaction between PPARG and NF-kB1.

Key message Heterosis QTLs, including qSS7 and qHD8, with dominance effects were identified through GBS and large-scale phenotyping of CSSLs and hybrid F 1 populations in a paddy field. Abstract Heterosis has contributed immensely to agricultural production, but its genetic basis is unclear. We evaluated dominance effects by creating two hybrid populations: a B-homo set with a homozygous background and heterozygous chromosomal segments and a B-heter set with a heterozygous background and homozygous segments. This was achieved by crossing a set of 156 backcrossed-derived chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) with their recurrent parent (9311), the male parent of the first super-high-yield hybrid Liangyoupei9 (LYP9), and with the female parent (PA64s) of the hybrid. The CSSLs were subjected to a genotyping-by-sequencing analysis to develop a genetic map of segments introduced from the PA64s. We evaluated the heterotic effects on eight yield-related traits in the hybrid variety and F 1 populations in large-scale field experiments over 2 years. Using a linkage map consisting of high-density SNPs, we identified heterosis-associated genes in LYP9. Five candidate genes contributed to the high yield of LYP9, with qSS7 and qHD8 repeatedly detected in both B-hybrid populations. The heterozygous segments harboring qSS7 and qHD8 showed dominance effects that contributed to the heterosis of yield components in the hybrid rice variety Liangyoupei9.
