Prefrontal Nectin3 Reduction Mediates Adolescent Stress-Induced Deficits of Social Memory, Spatial Working Memory, and Dendritic Structure in Mice - Hong-Li Wang; Ji-Tao Li; Han Wang; Ya-Xin Sun; Rui Liu; Xiao-Dong Wang; Yun-Ai Su; Tian-Mei Si (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2020)
Chronic stress may disrupt the normal neurodevelopmental trajectory of the adolescent brain (especially the prefrontal cortex) and contribute to the pathophysiology of stress-related mental illnesses, but the underlying molecular mechanisms remain unclear. Here, we investigated how synaptic cell adhesion molecules (e.g., nectin3) are involved in the effects of adolescent chronic stress on mouse medial prefrontal cortex (mPFC). Male C57BL/6N mice were subjected to chronic social instability stress from postnatal days 29 to 77. One week later, the mice exposed to chronic stress exhibited impaired social recognition and spatial working memory, simplified dendritic structure, and reduced spine density in the mPFC. Membrane localization of nectin3 was also altered, and was significantly correlated with behavioral performance. Furthermore, knocking down mPFC nectin3 expression by adeno-associated virus in adolescent mice reproduced the stress-induced changes in behavior and mPFC morphology. These results support the hypothesis that nectin3 is a potential mediator of the effects of adolescent chronic stress on prefrontal structural and functional abnormalities.

Regulation and Practice of Forest-Management Fires on Private Lands in the Southeast United States: Legal Open Burns versus Certified Prescribed Burns - Xue Han; Gregory E Frey; Changyou Sun (Journal of Forestry, 2020)
Abstract Forest-management burns have been widely acknowledged as a useful land-management tool in the United States. Nevertheless, fire is inherently risky and may lead to severe damages or create smoke that affects public health. Past research has not explored the difference in policy and practice between open burns, which meet minimum legal criteria, and certified prescribed burns, which follow a higher standard of care. This study seeks to understand the distinction between legal open burns and certified prescribed burns, and, furthermore, to identify trends by type of burn in the Southeast United States. To that end, we compared statutes, regulations, incentives, and notifications of fire as a forest-management tool among nine states in the US Southeast. We found no steady time trends in number or area of burns among the states for the past decade. A nontrivial proportion of legal open burns, which tend to be smaller burns, are noncertified burns, meaning they meet minimum legal requirements, but not the higher standard required for certified prescribed burns.

Potential contribution of winter dominant atmospheric mode over the mid‐latitude Eurasia to the prediction of subsequent spring Arctic Oscillation - Shuangze Han; Jianqi Sun (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
Spring Arctic Oscillation (AO) has been revealed to exert a great impact on the Northern Hemispheric climate; however, its seasonal prediction skill has been limited so far. In this paper, we find that the dominant mode of the winter 500‐hPa geopotential height anomalies over the mid‐latitude Eurasia has a close connection with the succeeding spring AO. The analysis on the physical processes indicates that the troposphere–stratosphere interaction plays an important role in the connection between the two. This predominant atmospheric mode in the mid‐latitude Eurasia during winter can change the vertical wave activity and lead to an anomalous stratospheric polar vortex. Thereafter, the signal of the anomalous stratospheric polar vortex propagates downward to troposphere in the subsequent spring, consequently inducing the anomalous AO pattern in the troposphere. The results in this study imply that this previous winter leading atmospheric mode over the mid‐latitude Eurasia may supply a potential source for a spring AO's prediction.

Characterization of brain microstructural abnormalities in cirrhotic patients without overt hepatic encephalopathy using diffusion kurtosis imaging - Qing Sun; Wenliang Fan; Yuan Liu; Yan Zou; Natalie Wiseman; Zhifeng Kou; Ping Han (Brain Imaging and Behavior, 2020)
Cirrhosis is a major public health concern. However, little is known about the neurobiological mechanisms underlying brain microstructure alterations in cirrhotic patients. The purpose of this prospective study was to investigate brain microstructural alterations in cirrhosis with or without minimal hepatic encephalopathy (MHE) and their relationship with patients’ neurocognitive performance and disease duration using voxel-based analysis of diffusion kurtosis imaging (DKI). DKI data were acquired from 30 cirrhotic patients with MHE, 31 patients without MHE (NMHE) and 59 healthy controls. All DKI-derived parametric maps were compared across the three groups to investigate their group differences. Correlation analyses were further performed to assess relationships between altered imaging parameters and clinical data. Voxel-based analysis of DKI data results showed that MHE/NMHE patients had increased radial diffusivity, axial diffusivity (AD) and mean diffusivity in addition to decreased axial kurtosis (AK) and fractional anisotropy of kurtosis in several regions. Compared to controls, these regions were primarily the cingulum, temporal and frontal cortices. The DKI metrics (i.e., AK and AD) were correlated with clinical variables in the two patient groups. In conclusion, DKI is useful for detecting brain microstructural abnormalities in MHE and NMHE patients. Abnormal DKI parameters suggest alterations in brain microstructural complexity in cirrhotic patients, which may contribute to the neurobiological basis of neurocognitive impairment. These results may provide additional information on the pathophysiology of cirrhosis.

Variation and evolution of C:N ratio among different organs enable plants to adapt to N‐limited environments - Jiahui Zhang; Nianpeng He; Congcong Liu; Li Xu; Zhi Chen; Ying Li; Ruomeng Wang; Guirui Yu; Wei Sun; Chunwang Xiao; Han Y. H. Chen; Peter B. Reich (Global Change Biology, 2020)
Carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) are the primary elements involved in the growth and development of plants. The C:N ratio is an indicator of nitrogen use efficiency (NUE) and an input parameter for some ecological and ecosystem models. However, knowledge remains limited about the convergent or divergent variation in the C:N ratios among different plant organs (e.g., leaf, branch, trunk, and root) and how evolution and environment affect the coefficient shifts. Using systematic measurements of the leaf–branch–trunk–root of 2,139 species from tropical to cold‐temperate forests, we comprehensively evaluated variation in C:N ratio in different organs in different taxa and forest types. The ratios showed convergence in the direction of change but divergence in the rate of change. Plants evolved toward lower C:N ratios in the leaf and branch, with N playing a more important role than C. The C:N ratio of plant organs (except for the leaf) was constrained by phylogeny, but not strongly. Both the change of C:N during evolution and its spatial variation (lower C:N ratio at midlatitudes) help develop the adaptive growth hypothesis. That is, plants with a higher C:N ratio promote NUE under strong N‐limited conditions to ensure survival priority, whereas plants with a lower C:N ratio under less N‐limited environments benefit growth priority. In nature, larger proportion of species with a high C:N ratio enabled communities to inhabit more N‐limited conditions. Our results provide new insights on the evolution and drivers of C:N ratio among different plant organs, as well as provide a quantitative basis to optimize land surface process models.

Background and aims Persimmon ( Diospyros kaki ) is an economically important fruit tree species with complex flowering characteristics. To obtain accurate expression pattern analysis results, it is vital to select a reliable gene for the normalization of real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction data. The aim of this study was to identify the optimal internal control gene among six candidate genes for gene expression analysis in different persimmon organs and developmental stages. Materials and methods This analysis was conducted using geNorm and NormFinder software to show differences in the stability of the six reference genes among tissues and floral developmental stages of the same plant. Results Although genes that exhibited moderate expression in NormFinder revealed slightly different expression stabilities than those obtained by geNorm, both sets of results showed that GAPDH was the best reference gene in different organs and floral buds at different developmental stages, whereas 18SrRNA was the least stable gene. Conclusions Based on the overall ranking, GAPDH is the most suitable reference gene and is highly recommended for gene expression studies in different organs and different developmental stages of persimmon. This study provides useful reference data for future gene expression studies and will contribute to improving the accuracy of gene expression results in persimmon.

Direct and indirect effects of climate on richness drive the latitudinal diversity gradient in forest trees - Chengjin Chu; James A. Lutz; Kamil Král; Tomáš Vrška; Xue Yin; Jonathan A. Myers; Iveren Abiem; Alfonso Alonso; Norm Bourg; David F.R.P. Burslem; Min Cao; Hazel Chapman; et al. (Ecology Letters, 2019)
Climate is widely recognised as an important determinant of the latitudinal diversity gradient. However, most existing studies make no distinction between direct and indirect effects of climate, which substantially hinders our understanding of how climate constrains biodiversity globally. Using data from 35 large forest plots, we test hypothesised relationships amongst climate, topography, forest structural attributes (stem abundance, tree size variation and stand basal area) and tree species richness to better understand drivers of latitudinal tree diversity patterns. Climate influences tree richness both directly, with more species in warm, moist, aseasonal climates and indirectly, with more species at higher stem abundance. These results imply direct limitation of species diversity by climatic stress and more rapid (co‐)evolution and narrower niche partitioning in warm climates. They also support the idea that increased numbers of individuals associated with high primary productivity are partitioned to support a greater number of species.

Aim To examine the contribution of large‐diameter trees to biomass, stand structure, and species richness across forest biomes. Location Global. Time period Early 21st century. Major taxa studied Woody plants. Methods We examined the contribution of large trees to forest density, richness and biomass using a global network of 48 large (from 2 to 60 ha) forest plots representing 5,601,473 stems across 9,298 species and 210 plant families. This contribution was assessed using three metrics: the largest 1% of trees ≥ 1 cm diameter at breast height (DBH), all trees ≥ 60 cm DBH, and those rank‐ordered largest trees that cumulatively comprise 50% of forest biomass. Results Averaged across these 48 forest plots, the largest 1% of trees ≥ 1 cm DBH comprised 50% of aboveground live biomass, with hectare‐scale standard deviation of 26%. Trees ≥ 60 cm DBH comprised 41% of aboveground live tree biomass. The size of the largest trees correlated with total forest biomass ( r 2 = .62, p r 2 = .45, p r 2 = .33, p r 2 = .17, p = .002). The concentration of biomass in the largest 1% of trees declined with increasing absolute latitude ( r 2 = .46, p r 2 = .31, p r 2 = .26, p Main conclusions Because large‐diameter trees constitute roughly half of the mature forest biomass worldwide, their dynamics and sensitivities to environmental change represent potentially large controls on global forest carbon cycling. We recommend managing forests for conservation of existing large‐diameter trees or those that can soon reach large diameters as a simple way to conserve and potentially enhance ecosystem services.

Mitigation of nitrous oxide emissions from acidic soils by Bacillus amyloliquefaciens , a plant growth‐promoting bacterium - Shanghua Wu; Guoqiang Zhuang; Zhihui Bai; Yu Cen; Shengjun Xu; Haishu Sun; Xingguo Han; Xuliang Zhuang (Global Change Biology, 2018)
Nitrous oxide (N 2 O) is a long‐lived greenhouse gas that can result in the alteration of atmospheric chemistry and cause accompanying changes in global climate. To date, many techniques have been used to mitigate the emissions of N 2 O from agricultural fields, which represent one of the most important sources of N 2 O. In this study, we designed a greenhouse pot experiment and a microcosmic serum bottle incubation experiment using acidic soil from a vegetable farm to study the effects of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens ( BA ) on plant growth and N 2 O emission rates. The addition of BA to the soil promoted plant growth enhanced the soil pH and increased the total nitrogen ( TN ) contents in the plants. At the same time, it decreased the concentrations of ammonium ( NH 4 + ), nitrate ( NO 3 − ) and TN in the soil. Overall, the addition of BA resulted in a 50% net reduction of N 2 O emissions compared with the control. Based on quantitative PCR and the network analysis of DNA sequencing, it was demonstrated that BA partially inhibited the nitrification process through the significant reduction of ammonia oxidizing bacteria. Meanwhile, it enhanced the denitrification process, mainly by increasing the abundance of N 2 O‐reducing bacteria in the treatment with BA . The results of our microcosm experiment provided evidence that strongly supported the above findings under more strictly controlled laboratory conditions. Taken together, the results of our study evidently demonstrated that BA has dual effects on the promotion of plant growth and the dramatic reduction of greenhouse emissions, thus suggesting the possibility of screening beneficial microbial organisms from the environment that can promote plant growth and mitigate greenhouse trace gases.

Effect of Lateral Flushing on Emitter Clogging under Drip Irrigation with Yellow River Water and a Suitable Method - Siqi Han; Yunkai Li; Feipeng Xu; Dongxuan Sun; Ji Feng; Zeyuan Liu; Ruonan Wu; Zhenhua Wang (Irrigation and Drainage, 2018)
Lateral flushing is expected to become an important means of controlling emitter clogging in drip irrigation systems. This research investigated the effect of different flushing frequencies (once every 32, 64, 96 and 128 h) and flushing velocities (0.2, 0.4 and 0. m s −1 ) on emitter clogging. The experimental results showed that the substances that clogged the emitters mainly come from the cast of internal laterals, and could be effectively controlled by lateral flushing. And emitter clogging was most effectively relieved for the frequency of once per 64 h, and the velocity of 0.4 m s −1 . The discharge ratio variation (Dra) and the coefficient of uniformity (CU) of the drip irrigation system, increased from 7.7 to 21.9% and 11.6 to 67.4%, respectively, compared with non‐flushed laterals. Also, as the frequency increased, Dra and CU first decreased and then increased. Similarly, with the increase of flushing velocity, Dra and CU also decreased then increased. In conclusion, for the drip irrigation system with YRW, the suitable lateral flushing velocity was found to be 0.4 m s −1 at a frequency of once per 64 h. Copyright © 2017 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

The Myosin5‐mediated actomyosin motility system is required for Verticillium pathogenesis of cotton - Zhidi Feng; Juan Tian; Libo Han; Yuan Geng; Jie Sun; Zhaosheng Kong (Environmental Microbiology, 2018)
Summary The vascular wilt fungus Verticillium dahliae is one of the most destructive pathogens of cotton ( Gossypium hirsutum ) and many other economically important dicot plants. Fungal pathogens require Myosin‐mediated actomyosin motility system for colonization of their host plants; however, the mechanisms underlying this process have not been fully characterized for V. dahliae . Here, in a knock‐out experiment, we characterized the role of VdMyo5 , a member of the Myosin V family, before and during infection of cotton and Arabidopsis thaliana . The VdMyo5 deletion mutant (ΔVdmyo5 ) fungi showed obvious defects in the development of conidia and the polarized elongation of vegetative hyphae, but no inhibition of host root penetration. Overall, the ΔVdmyo5 fungi exhibited dramatically reduced virulence in cotton and Arabidopsis , with almost no colonization in sections of host vascular tissue. We found labelled Myosin5‐GFP to be specifically enriched at the hyphal tip, co‐localized with FM4‐64 labelled Spitzenkörper, which is the vesicle supply centre in filamentous fungi. Comparative secretome analysis revealed that proteins associated with cell wall modification and degradation of reactive oxygen species were significantly altered in mutant strains. Our results indicate that Myosin5 is required for vegetative growth and full virulence, possibly by regulating vesicle transport. The findings provide important insight into the cellular mechanisms of Verticillium pathogenesis.
