Enhancing soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration and food supply are vital for human survival when facing climate change. Site‐specific best management practices (BMPs) are being promoted for adoption globally as solutions. However, how SOC and crop yield are related to each other in responding to BMPs remains unknown. Here, path analysis based on meta‐analysis and machine learning was conducted to identify the effects and potential mechanisms of how the relationship between SOC and crop yield responds to site‐specific BMPs in China. The results showed that BMPs could significantly enhance SOC and maintain or increase crop yield. The maximum benefits in SOC (30.6%) and crop yield (79.8%) occurred in mineral fertilizer combined with organic inputs (MOF). Specifically, the optimal SOC and crop yield would be achieved when the areas were arid, soil pH was ≥7.3, initial SOC content was ≤10 g kg −1 , duration was >10 years, and the nitrogen (N) input level was 100–200 kg ha −1 . Further analysis revealed that the original SOC level and crop yield change showed an inverted V‐shaped structure. The association between the changes in SOC and crop yield might be linked to the positive role of the nutrient‐mediated effect. The results generally suggested that improving the SOC can strongly support better crop performance. Limitations in increasing crop yield still exist due to low original SOC level, and in regions where the excessive N inputs, inappropriate tillage or organic input is inadequate and could be diminished by optimizing BMPs in harmony with site‐specific conditions.

Polyploids recurrently emerge in angiosperms, but most polyploids are likely to go extinct before establishment due to minority cytotype exclusion, which may be specifically a constraint for dioecious plants. Here we test the hypothesis that a stable sex‐determination system and spatial/ecological isolation facilitate the establishment of dioecious polyploids. We determined the ploidy levels of 351 individuals from 28 populations of the dioecious species Salix polyclona , and resequenced 190 individuals of S . polyclona and related taxa for genomic diversity analyses. The ploidy survey revealed a frequency 52% of tetraploids in S . polyclona , and genomic k ‐mer spectra analyses suggested an autopolyploid origin for them. Comparisons of diploid male and female genomes identified a female heterogametic sex‐determining factor on chromosome 15, which probably also acts in the dioecious tetraploids. Phylogenetic analyses revealed two diploid clades and a separate clade/grade of tetraploids with a distinct geographic distribution confined to western and central China, where complex mountain systems create higher levels of environmental heterogeneity. Fossil‐calibrated phylogenies showed that the polyploids emerged during 7.6–2.3 million years ago, and population demographic histories largely matched the geological and climatic history of the region. Our results suggest that inheritance of the sex‐determining system from the diploid progenitor as intrinsic factor and spatial isolation as extrinsic factor may have facilitated the preservation and establishment of polyploid dioecious populations.

Loss-of-Function of xpc Sensitizes Zebrafish to Ultraviolet Irradiation - Kai Liu; Zhaoxiang Sun; Chun Yang; Li Jan Lo; Jun Chen (Fishes, 2023)
Xeroderma pigmentosum complementation group C (XPC) protein recognizes bulky DNA adducts to initiate global genomic nucleotide excision repair (GG-NER). Humans carrying germline mutations in the XPC gene display strong susceptibility to skin and certain internal cancers. In addition to its role in NER, recent studies have indicated that XPC is also involved in other DNA damage repair pathways and transcription regulation. In this report, we generated a zebrafish xpc knockout mutant. Zebrafish xpc−/− mutant fish develop relative normally and are fertile. However, the mutant embryos were more sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) irradiation. Upon UV irradiation, compared with the wild type embryos, mutant embryos accumulated significantly higher levels of unrepaired DNA damages and apoptotic cells, which led to more severe abnormal development. Transcriptome analysis showed that the p53 signal pathway and apoptosis were enriched in the over upregulated genes in UV-irradiated mutant embryos, suggesting that high levels of unrepaired DNA lesions activated p53 to trigger apoptotic activity in mutant embryos. More interestingly, up to 972 genes in the untreated mutant embryos were differentially expressed, compared with those in the untreated WT. Among these differentially expressed genes (DEGs), 379 genes did not respond to UV irradiation, indicating that Xpc plays a role in addition of DNA damage repair. Our results demonstrate that Xpc is an evolutionally conserved factor in NER repair. Zebrafish xpc−/− mutant also provides a platform to study other functions of Xpc beyond the DNA damage repair.

Burgess; Shao‐Lin Tan; Lin‐Jiang Ye; Wei Zheng; Jia‐Yun Zou; Zhi‐Fa Chen; De‐Tuan Liu; Guang‐Fu Zhu; et al. (Journal of Biogeography, 2023)
Aim Mycorrhiza play key roles for ecosystem structure and functioning in forests. However, how different mycorrhizal types influence mountain forest biodiversity–ecosystem functioning (BEF) relationships are largely unknown. We evaluate how the diversity of distinct mycorrhiza‐associated fungi and trees shapes forest carbon storage along elevational gradients. Location Gaoligong Mountains within Hengduan Mountains, Southwest China. Taxon Seed plants and mycorrhizal fungi. Methods We used the data from 31 subtropical forest plots along elevational gradients on two aspects (east and west) of the mountain. We quantified species richness of trees and symbiotic fungi and assigned both to their mycorrhizal type (arbuscular mycorrhiza [AM], ectomycorrhiza [EcM] and ericoid mycorrhiza [ErM]). We then examined the diversity effects of mycorrhiza‐associated fungi and trees on above‐ground carbon stored in trees and organic carbon stored in soils. Results Species richness was highest for AM trees (79.5%), followed by ErM trees (13.4%) and then EcM trees (7.1%). Species richness of AM‐associated trees and fungi decreased with increasing elevation, while ErM‐associated trees and fungi showed an opposite trend. EcM‐associated diversity followed a hump‐shaped relationship with elevation. Positive relationships between diversity and above‐ground carbon were detected in all three mycorrhizal associations, but despite low species number, canopy‐dominating EcM trees comprised 64.4% of the amount of above‐ground carbon. Furthermore, community‐weighted means of height exhibited positive correlations with forest above‐ground carbon, indicating that positive selection effects occur. Soil organic carbon was positively related to EcM‐associated fungi diversity, above‐ground carbon mass and soil nitrogen availability, with the latter having strongest direct effects. Main Conclusions The distributions of forest biodiversity and carbon storage can be modulated by distinct mycorrhizal fungi and trees. Moreover, future global changes (e.g. climate warming, intensifying nitrogen deposition) could alter the mycorrhizal‐mediated BEF relationships in mountain forests.

Cold Dome Affects Mesozooplankton Communities during the Southwest Monsoon Period in the Southeast East China Sea - Yan-Guo Wang; Li-Chun Tseng; Xiao-Yin Chen; Rou-Xin Sun; Peng Xiang; Bing-Peng Xing; Chun-Guang Wang; Jiang-Shiou Hwang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
In order to better understand the cold dome influence on zooplankton community structure, zooplankton samples were collected during the southwest monsoon prevailing period from the southeast waters of the East China Sea. To reduce the bias caused by different sampling months, the samples were collected in June 2018 and in June 2019. An obvious cold dome activity was proven by images of remote sensing satellites during the June 2018 cruise. In contrast, the research area was much affected by open sea high temperature and water masses during the June 2019 cruise. Significant differences in water conditions were demonstrated by surface seawater temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen concentrations between the two cruises. Nevertheless, no significant differences were observed concerning mesozooplankton in general, copepods, large crustaceans, other crustaceans, and pelagic molluscs between the June 2018 and June 2019 cruises. However, the mean abundance of gelatinous plankton was significantly different with 1213.08 ± 850.46 (ind./m3) and 2955.93 ± 1904.42 (ind./m3) in June 2018 and June 2019, respectively. Noteworthy, a significantly lower mean abundance of meroplankton, with 60.78 ± 47.32 (ind./m3), was identified in June 2018 compared to 464.45 ± 292.80 (ind./m3) in June 2019. Pearson’s correlation analysis also showed a highly positive correlation of gelatinous plankton and meroplankton with sea surface temperature (p

Main conclusion The xyloglucans of all aquatic Araceae species examined had unusual structures compared with those of other non-commelinid monocotyledon families previously examined. Abstract The aquatic Araceae species Lemna minor was earlier shown to have xyloglucans with a different structure from the fucogalactoxyloglucans of other non-commelinid monocotyledons. We investigated 26 Araceae species (including L. minor ), from five of the seven subfamilies. All seven aquatic species examined had xyloglucans that were unusual in having one or two of three features: < 77% XXXG core motif [ L. minor (Lemnoideae) and Orontium aquaticum (Orontioideae)]; no fucosylation [ L. minor (Lemnoideae), Cryptocoryne aponogetonifolia , and Lagenandra ovata (Aroideae, Rheophytes clade)]; and > 14% oligosaccharide units with S or D side chains [ Spirodela polyrhiza and Landoltia punctata (Lemnoideae) and Pistia stratiotes (Aroideae, Dracunculus clade)]. Orontioideae and Lemnoideae are the two most basal subfamilies, with all species being aquatic, and Aroideae is the most derived. Two terrestrial species [ Dieffenbachia seguine and Spathicarpa hastifolia (Aroideae, Zantedeschia clade)] also had xyloglucans without fucose indicating this feature was not unique to aquatic species.

Seismic Multiple Attenuation in the Continent–Ocean Transition Zone of the Northern South China Sea - Nan Chen; Chun-Feng Li; Yong-Lin Wen; Peng Wang; Xiu-Lian Zhao; Xiao-Li Wan (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
In this study, we process four new multichannel reflection seismic profiles acquired in 2015 and 2016 in the continent–ocean transition zone (COT) of the northern South China Sea (SCS). We apply a multi-domain, progressive, and seabed-controlled denoising technique and obtain a good denoising effect. Combining velocity analysis in the multi-round time domain and forward modeling, we analyze the types and characteristics of multiples in the study area and formulate an effective demultiple technique to attenuate strong seabed multiples, diffracted multiples from rough seafloor, and other multiples from deep reflectors. The processing results show that the sea surface-related multiple elimination technique predicts the sea surface-related multiples accurately by data convolution, and has a good effect in attenuating seabed multiples. Diffracted multiple attenuation method extracts high-frequency and high-energy diffracted multiples, and suppresses multiples by the energy ratios of multiples to primary events. To attenuate deep multiples, we select predictive deconvolution to attenuate periodic deep multiples after many trials and detailed analysis. The combination of these different techniques in sequence proves to be quite effective in attenuating different seismic multiples in the COT. The imaged crustal structures near the COT often show strong magmatism and/or basement uplifting. The faulted and thinned continental crust adjacent to the COT corresponds to the lowest free-air gravity anomalies. Gravity anomalies often increase from the COT to the oceanic crust. An exception is to the northeast of the SCS, where the relatively wide COT shows very high gravity anomalies, likely induced by mantle upwelling and serpentinization.

Andrographolide ameliorates hepatic steatosis by suppressing FATP2-mediated fatty acid uptake in mice with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease - Li-Sha Ran; Ya-Zeng Wu; Yi-Wen Gan; Hong-Lian Wang; Li-Juan Wu; Chun-Mei Zheng; Yao Ming; Ran Xiong; Yong-Lin Li; Shi-Hang Lei; Xue Wang; Xiao-Qing Lao; et al. (Journal of Natural Medicines, 2023)
Excessive intrahepatocellular lipid accumulation or steatosis is caused by abnormal lipid metabolism and a common character of nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD), which may progress into cirrhosis and hepatocellular cancer. Andrographolide (Andro) is the primary active ingredient extracted from Andrographis paniculata , showing a protective role against dietary steatosis with the mechanism not fully understood. In this study, we showed that administration of Andro (50, 100, and 200 mg/kg/day for 8 weeks, respectively) attenuated obesity and metabolic syndrome in high-fat diet (HFD)-fed mice with improved glucose tolerance, insulin sensitivity, and reduced hyperinsulinemia, hyperglycemia, and hyperlipidemia. HFD-fed mice presented hepatic steatosis, which was significantly prevented by Andro. In vitro, Andro decreased the intracellular lipid droplets in oleic acid-treated LO2 cells. The selected RT-PCR array revealed a robust expression suppression of the fatty acid transport proteins (FATPs) by Andro treatment. Most importantly, we found that Andro consistently reduced the expression of FATP2 in both the oleic acid-treated LO2 cells and liver tissues of HFD-fed mice. Overexpression of FATP2 abolished the lipid-lowering effect of Andro in oleic acid-treated LO2 cells. Andro treatment also reduced the fatty acid uptake in oleic acid-treated LO2 cells, which was blunted by FATP2 overexpression. Collectively, our findings reveal a novel mechanism underlying the anti-steatosis effect of Andro by suppressing FATP2-mediated fatty acid uptake, suggesting the potential therapeutic application of Andro in the treatment of NAFLD.

Dynamic Analysis and Extreme Response Evaluation of Lifting Operation of the Offshore Wind Turbine Jacket Foundation Using a Floating Crane Vessel - Mingsheng Chen; Guibo Yuan; Chun Bao Li; Xianxiong Zhang; Lin Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The jacket is the most widely-used fixed foundation for offshore wind turbines due to its superior strength and low installation cost in relatively deep waters. Floating crane vessels are commonly used to install jacket foundations. However, the dynamic coupling between the jacket and the floating vessel might generate complex dynamic responses under wave action. The complexity of the multi-body system requires comprehensive time-domain simulations and statistical analysis to obtain reliable results, especially for the evaluation of the operational safety of offshore lift installations of a jacket foundation. In this context, this study performs numerical simulations and statistical analyses to predict the extreme responses and the preliminary allowable sea states for guiding the lowering operation of a jacket using a floating crane vessel. First, ANSYS-AQWA is used to obtain the hydrodynamic coefficients of the vessel in the frequency domain. A nonstationary time-domain simulation of jacket lowering with winches is performed to identify several preliminary critical vertical positions of the jacket from the time series in an irregular wave. The extreme responses of a target probability are evaluated by the extreme distribution model after a large number of steady-state time-domain simulations of the critical vertical positions in irregular waves. The most critical vertical position is determined from three preliminary critical vertical positions by comparing the extreme responses. Eigenvalue analysis and spectrum analysis of the most critical vertical position of the jacket are carried out to find the natural periods of the system and the dynamic coupling characteristics between different components. The influence of wave direction, significant wave height, and spectrum peak period on the dynamic responses are also analyzed in the most critical vertical position. Furthermore, the optimal wave direction is determined as the head sea. Preliminary allowable sea states are derived by comparing the calculated dynamic amplification coefficient with the defined operational criteria.

Scaling-up and proteomic analysis reveals photosynthetic and metabolic insights toward prolonged H2 photoproduction in Chlamydomonas hpm91 mutant lacking proton gradient regulation 5 (PGR5) - Peng Liu; De-Min Ye; Mei Chen; Jin Zhang; Xia-He Huang; Li-Li Shen; Ke-Ke Xia; Xiao-Jing Xu; Yong-Chao Xu; Ya-Long Guo; Ying-Chun Wang; Fang Huang (Photosynthesis Research, 2022)
Clean and sustainable H 2 production is crucial to a carbon–neutral world. H 2 generation by Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is an attractive approach for solar-H 2 from H 2 O. However, it is currently not large-scalable because of lacking desirable strains with both optimal H 2 productivity and sufficient knowledge of underlying molecular mechanism. We hereby carried out extensive and in-depth investigations of H 2 photoproduction of hpm91 mutant lacking PGR5 (Proton Gradient Regulation 5) toward its up-scaling and fundamental mechanism issues. We show that hpm91 is at least 100-fold scalable (up to 10 L) with continuous H 2 collection of 7287 ml H 2 /10L-HPBR in averagely 26 days under sulfur deprivation. Also, we show that hpm91 is robust and active during sustained H 2 photoproduction, most likely due to decreased intracellular ROS relative to wild type. Moreover, we obtained quantitative proteomic profiles of wild type and hpm91 at four representing time points of H 2 evolution, leading to 2229 and 1350 differentially expressed proteins, respectively. Compared to wild type, major proteome alterations of hpm91 include not only core subunits of photosystems and those related to anti-oxidative responses but also essential proteins in photosynthetic antenna, C/N metabolic balance, and sulfur assimilation toward both cysteine biosynthesis and sulfation of metabolites during sulfur-deprived H 2 production. These results reveal not only new insights of cellular and molecular basis of enhanced H 2 production in hpm91 but also provide additional candidate gene targets and modules for further genetic modifications and/or in artificial photosynthesis mimics toward basic and applied research aiming at advancing solar-H 2 technology.

AIoT-Based Ergometer for Physical Training in Frail Elderly with Cognitive Decline: A Pilot Randomized Control Trial - Chih-Chun Lin; Li-Chieh Kuo; Yu-Sheng Lin; Chia-Ming Chang; Fang Wen Hu; Yi-Jing Chen; Chun-Tse Lin; Fong-Chin Su (Journal of Medical and Biological Engineering, 2022)
Purpose Reduced physical activity is reported in the elderly, especially in institutional residents. Institutionalized older adults exhibit a high prevalence of frailty. In this work, we developed an artificial intelligence of things (AIoT)-based feedback assistive strengthening ergometer (AIFASE), for the physical strengthening of the elderly with intelligent assistance. Methods We conducted a 12-week intervention in a long-term care facility. In total, 16 participants (84.38 ± 6.0 years; 4 males and 12 females) were recruited with 1:1 randomization of exercise to control groups. The muscle strength of the lower extremities, timed up and go test (TUG), and Short-form Physical Performance Battery (SPPB) of the participants were measured. The AIFASE system allows the clinical staff to record the personal physical performance of the elderly and generates personalized exercise prescriptions accordingly. AIFASE also displays the current usage status of all ergometers and the users’ physiological conditions. The algorithms were developed to generate warning alerts when the training workload was too large by personal physiological detection. AIFASE automatically customized the exercise prescription according to the user’s exercise performance. Results After a 12-week AIFASE intervention, the intervention group exhibited significant improvements in the strength of the hip flexor, Semi-Tandem Stand, and Tandem Stand. Conclusion In this study, we developed an AIoT ergometer that delivered customized physical training prescriptions to improve the physical performance of long-term care facility residents. We believe that the application of AIFASE will help improve the quality of institutional care.

Comparison of ticagrelor and clopidogrel on platelet function and prognosis in unstable angina - Chun Li; Ming Liu; Weixiang Chen; Tingbo Jiang; Lin Ling (European Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, 2022)
Purpose This study aims to compare the effects of ticagrelor and clopidogrel on platelet function, cardiovascular prognosis, and bleeding in patients with unstable angina pectoris. Methods Patients with unstable angina pectoris undergoing percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) were enrolled (January 2018–December 2019). In total, 212 patients were treated with ticagrelor (90 mg twice daily) and 210 patients were treated with clopidogrel (75 mg once daily). Thromboelastography and light transmission aggregometry were used to measure the platelet aggregation rate (PAR). High-sensitivity troponin T (hs-TnT), pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP), high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (CRP), and heart-type fatty acid–binding protein (h-FABP) were measured to assess myocardial injury after PCI. Cardiovascular prognosis and bleeding events were evaluated in hospital and 12 months after discharge. Results The PAR was significantly slower with ticagrelor ( P < 0.001). hs-TnT, NT-proBNP, CRP, and h-FABP increased after compared with before PCI in both groups ( P < 0.05). hs-TnT ( P < 0.001) and h-FABP ( P < 0.001) increased more significantly with clopidogrel. The in-hospital and 12-month major adverse cardiovascular event (MACE) rates were not significantly different between the two groups. The in-hospital total bleeding event rate was higher with ticagrelor ( P < 0.05). Minor bleeding and total bleeding were more frequent at the 12-month follow-up in the ticagrelor group ( P < 0.05). Conclusion Ticagrelor was more effective in suppressing the PAR than clopidogrel and reduced PCI-induced myocardial injury in patients with unstable angina pectoris. However, it increased in-hospital and 12-month bleeding events and had no benefit on in-hospital and 12-month MACEs.

Ovary transcriptomic analysis reveals regulation effects of dietary fish oil on hormone, lipid, and glucose metabolism in female adult spotted scat (Scatophagus argus) - Tuo Wang; Zhi-Long Liu; Guang-Li Li; Umar Farouk Mustapha; Charles Brighton Ndandala; Hong-Juan Shi; Chun-Hua Zhu; Hua-Pu Chen; Yang Huang; Dong-Neng Jiang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
In the aquaculture industry, fish oil is widely used as a nutritional supplement to promote the gonadal maturation of broodstocks, while the mechanism of fish oil on ovary development remain unclear. Herein, female adult spotted scat ( Scatophagus argus ) with most ovaries at phase II were fed with diets containing 8% soybean oil (SO) or 8% fish oil (FO) for 60 days. The final average fish body weight was similar between FO and SO groups. The average gonadosomatic index (GSI) of FO group was higher (non-significant) than that of SO group. Finally, the phase IV ovary of the FO and SO groups were 7 and 5 out of 10, respectively. The serum estradiol (E2) level of the FO group was significantly higher than that of the SO group. The proportions of n-3 long-chain polyunsaturated fatty acids (LC-PUFA, such as docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA)) in the ovaries were much higher in the FO group than in the SO group. These results suggest that the maturity level of the FO group is relatively higher than that of the SO group. Transcriptome sequencing was used to detect the ovary gene expression. Comparatively, the ovary transcriptome analysis showed 68 up-regulated and 193 down-regulated genes in the FO group. The expression levels of Jund and Jun necessary for the ovary maturation were up-regulated in the FO group, while Pparγ and Cxcl12 , which could inhibit the ovary development, were down-regulated in the FO group. Cyp3a27 coding the enzyme for degrading the estrogen was significantly down-regulated in the FO group and coincided with the increase of its serum E2. Kif5b which could regulate the glucose metabolism was up-regulated in the FO group. Serum insulin level was also increased in the FO group. Additionally, Aldh3a2 and Plin2 related to lipid metabolism were significantly down-regulated in the FO group. Briefly, dietary fish oil can influence the expression of genes related to steroid hormone, glucose and lipid metabolism. This study will clarify the mechanism of dietary fish oil in promoting ovary development in teleost fish.

Impacts of Topographic Complexity on Modeling Moisture Transport and Precipitation over the Tibetan Plateau in Summer - Gudongze Li; Haoming Chen; Mingyue Xu; Chun Zhao; Lei Zhong; Rui Li; Yunfei Fu; Yanhong Gao (Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2022)
The non-hydrostatic global variable resolution model (MPAS-atmosphere) is used to conduct the simulations for the South Asian Summer monsoon season (June, July, and August) in 2015 with a refinement over the Tibetan Plateau (TP) at the convection-permitting scale (4 km). Two experiments with different topographical datasets, complex (4-km) and smooth (60-km) topography, are designed to investigate the impacts of topographical complexity on moisture transport and precipitation. Compared with the observations and reanalysis data, the simulation can successfully capture the general features of key meteorological fields over the TP despite slightly underestimating the inflow through the southern TP. The results indicate that the complex topography can decrease the inward and outward moisture transport, ultimately increasing the total net moisture transport into the TP by ∼11%. The impacts of complex topography on precipitation are negligible over the TP, but the spatial distributions of precipitation over the Himalayas are significantly modulated. With the inclusion of complex topography, the sharper southern slopes of the Himalayas shift the lifted airflow and hence precipitation northward compared to the smooth topography. In addition, more small-scale valleys are resolved by the inclusion of complex topography, which serve as channels for moisture transport across the Himalayas, further favoring a northward shift of precipitation. Overall, the difference between the two experiments with different topography datasets is mainly attributed to their differing representation of the degree of the southern slopes of the Himalayas and the extent to which the valleys are resolved.

COVID-19 is a serious infectious disease that has recently swept the world, and research on its causative virus, SARS-CoV-2, remains insufficient. Therefore, this study uses bioinformatics analysis techniques to explore the human digestive tract diseases that may be caused by SARS-CoV-2 infection. The gene expression profile data set, numbered GSE149312, is from the Gene Expression Omnibus (GEO) database and is divided into a 24-h group and a 60-h group. R software is used to analyze and screen out differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and then gene ontology (GO) term and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analyses are performed. In KEGG, the pathway of non-alcoholic fatty liver disease exists in both the 24-h group and 60-h group. STRING is used to establish a protein–protein interaction (PPI) network, and Cytoscape is then used to visualize the PPI and define the top 12 genes of the node as the hub genes. Through verification, nine statistically significant hub genes are identified: AKT1, TIMP1, NOTCH, CCNA2, RRM2, TTK, BUB1B, KIF20A, and PLK1. In conclusion, the results of this study can provide a certain direction and basis for follow-up studies of SARS-CoV-2 infection of the human digestive tract and provide new insights for the prevention and treatment of diseases caused by SARS-CoV-2.

Individual exposure to ambient PM2.5 and hospital admissions for COPD in 110 hospitals: a case-crossover study in Guangzhou, China - Jie-Qi Jin; Dong Han; Qi Tian; Zhao-Yue Chen; Yun-Shao Ye; Qiao-Xuan Lin; Chun-Quan Ou; Li Li (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2022)
Few studies have evaluated the short-term association between hospital admissions and individual exposure to ambient particulate matter (PM 2.5 ). Particularly, no studies focused on hospital admissions for chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) at the individual level. We assessed the short-term effects of PM 2.5 on hospitalization admissions for COPD in Guangzhou, China, during 2014–2015, based on satellite-derived estimates of ambient PM 2.5 concentrations at a 1-km resolution near the residential address as individual-level exposure for each patient. Around 40,002 patients with COPD admitted to 110 hospitals were included in this study. A time-stratified case-crossover design with conditional logistic regression models was applied to assess the effects of PM 2.5 based on a 1-km grid data of aerosol optical depth provided by the National Aeronautics and Space Administration on hospital admissions for COPD. Further, we performed stratified analyses by individual demographic characteristics and season of hospital admission. Around 10 μg/m 3 increase in individual-level PM 2.5 was associated with an increase of 1.6% (95% confidence interval [CI]: 0.6%, 2.7%) in hospitalization for COPD at a lag of 0–5 days. The impact of PM 2.5 on hospitalization for COPD was greater significantly in males and patients admitted in summer. Our study strengthened the evidence for the adverse effect of PM 2.5 based on satellite-based individual-level exposure data.

Infectivity and antigenicity of pseudoviruses with high-frequency mutations of SARS-CoV-2 identified in Portugal - Hai-xin Wang; Li Zhang; Zi-teng Liang; Jian-hui Nie; Jia-jing Wu; Qian-qian Li; Ru-xia Ding; Yue Zhang; Guo-qing Chen; You-chun Wang; Hui-guo Wang; Wei-jin Huang (Archives of Virology, 2022)
Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) has had a major impact on global human health. During the spread of SARS-CoV-2, weakened host immunity and the use of vaccines with low efficacy may result in the development of more-virulent strains or strains with resistance to existing vaccines and antibodies. The prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 mutant strains differs between regions, and this variation may have an impact on the effectiveness of vaccines. In this study, an epidemiological investigation of SARS-CoV-2 in Portugal was performed, and the VSV-ΔG-G* pseudovirus system was used to construct 12 spike protein epidemic mutants, D614G, A222V+D614G, B.1.1.7, S477N+D614G, P1162R+D614G+A222V, D839Y+D614G, L176F+D614G, B.1.1.7+L216F, B.1.1.7+M740V, B.1.258, B.1.258+L1063F, and B.1.258+N751Y. The mutant pseudoviruses were used to infect four susceptible cell lines (Huh7, hACE2-293T-293T, Vero, and LLC-MK2) and 14 cell lines overexpressing ACE2 from different species. Mutant strains did not show increased infectivity or cross-species transmission. Neutralization activity against these pseudoviruses was evaluated using mouse serum and 11 monoclonal antibodies. The neutralizing activity of immunized mouse serum was not significantly reduced with the mutant strains, but the mutant strains from Portugal could evade nine of the 11 monoclonal antibodies tested. Neutralization resistance was mainly caused by the mutations S477N, N439K, and N501Y in the spike-receptor binding domain.

Not out of the woods yet: Signatures of the prolonged negative genetic consequences of a population bottleneck in a rapidly re‐expanding wader, the black‐faced spoonbill Platalea minor - Shou‐Hsien Li; Yang Liu; Chia‐Fen Yeh; Yuchen Fu; Carol K. L. Yeung; Chun‐Cheng Lee; Chi‐Cheng Chiu; Tung Hui Kuo; Fang‐Tse Chan; Yu‐Chia Chen; Wen‐Ya Ko; Cheng‐Te Yao (Molecular Ecology, 2022)
The long‐term persistence of a population which has suffered a bottleneck partly depends on how historical demographic dynamics impacted its genetic diversity and the accumulation of deleterious mutations. Here we provide genomic evidence for the genetic effect of a recent population bottleneck in the endangered black‐faced spoonbill ( Platalea minor ) after its rapid population recovery. Our data suggest that the bird's effective population size, N e , had been relatively stable (7500–9000) since 22,000 years ago; however, a recent brief yet severe bottleneck ( N e = 20) which we here estimated to occur around the 1940s wiped out >99% of its historical N e in roughly three generations. Despite a >15‐fold population recovery since 1988, we found that black‐faced spoonbill population has higher levels of inbreeding (7.4 times more runs of homozygosity) than its sister species, the royal spoonbill ( P. regia ), which is not thought to have undergone a marked population contraction. Although the two spoonbills have similar levels of genome‐wide genetic diversity, our results suggest that selection on more genes was relaxed in the black‐faced spoonbill; moreover individual black‐faced spoonbills carry more putatively deleterious mutations (Grantham's score > 50), and may therefore express more deleterious phenotypic effects than royal spoonbills. Here we demonstrate the value of using genomic indices to monitor levels of genetic erosion, inbreeding and mutation load in species with conservation concerns. To mitigate the prolonged negative genetic effect of a population bottleneck, we recommend that all possible measures should be employed to maintain population growth of a threatened species.

Pull-Out Mechanism of Horizontal and Inclined Plate Anchors in Normally Consolidated Clay - Cun Hu; Junfeng Chen; Chun Fai Leung; Yean Khow Chow; Zhichuan Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
As most existing experimental studies on plate anchors were carried out in uniform clay, a centrifuge model study is presented in this paper to investigate the pull-out behaviour of plate anchors in normally consolidated clay, which is not uncommon in offshore seabed. Horizontal and inclined anchors with different embedment depths and aspect ratios (length to width) are considered. The soil movement pattern around the plate anchor is evaluated from high-resolution photographs taken during the tests employing the Particle Image Velocimetry technique. The separation mechanism at the plate-soil interface is hence identified. The significant contribution of suction towards the ultimate pull-out capacity of a plate anchor is quantified by monitoring the soil resistance and the pore pressure beneath the anchor base under undrained condition. By comparing the pull-out responses of horizontal and inclined anchors, the effect of anchor inclination on the anchor capacity and failure mechanism is evaluated.

The Quasi-Static Response of Moored Floating Structures Based on Minimization of Mechanical Energy - Chun Bao Li; Mingsheng Chen; Joonmo Choung (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
It is essential to design a reasonable mooring line length that ensures quasi-static responses of moored floating structures are within an acceptable level, and that reduces the cost of mooring lines in the overall project. Quasi-static responses include the equilibrium position and the line tension of a moored floating structure (also called the mean value in a dynamic response), etc. The quasi-static responses derived by the classic catenary equation cannot present mooring–seabed interaction and hydrodynamic effects on a mooring line. While a commercial program can predict reasonable quasi-static responses, costly modeling is required. This motivated us to propose a new method for predicting quasi-static responses that minimizes the mechanical energy of the whole system based on basic geometric parameters, and that is easy to implement. In this study, the mechanical energy of moored floating structures is assumed to be the sum of gravitational–buoyancy potential energy, kinetic energy induced by drag forces, and spring potential energy derived by line tension. We introduce fundamental theoretical background for the development of the proposed method. We investigate the effect of quasi-static actions on mooring response, comparing the proposed method’s results with those from the catenary equation and ABAQUS software. The study reveals the shortcomings of the catenary equation in offshore applications. We also compare quasi-static responses derived by the AQWA numerical package with the results calculated from the proposed method for an 8 MW WindFloat 2 type of platform. Good agreement was drawn between the proposed method and AQWA. The proposed method proves more timesaving than AQWA in terms of modeling of mooring lines and floaters, and more accurate than the catenary equation, and can be used effectively in the early design phase of dimension mooring lengths for moored floating structures.

Corticosterone Can Be an Essential Stress Index in Channel Catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) - Kang Xiao; Xi Wang; Wen-Bin Liu; Ding-Dong Zhang; Xiang-Fei Li; Chun-Nuan Zhang; Wei-Hua Chen; Kenneth Prudence Abasubong; Guang-Zhen Jiang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Although cortisol is considered the main glucocorticoid involved in regulating stress in fish by elevating the serum glucose, the presence of serum corticosterone and whether its level can be used as an indicator for fish stress activation and reflect the degree of fish stress remains to be determined. To comprehensively and accurately evaluate the performance of two glucocorticoids after stress, in this study, seven of the most common stressors (ammonia nitrogen, high-temperature, acid, alkali, Aeromonas hydrophila, and salinity) in aquaculture were selected. The levels of serum corticosterone, cortisol, and glucose were detected within 48 h, and then the dynamic changes were analyzed. In addition, the kidneys were collected to detect the expression of corresponding proteins involved in corticosterone and cortisol synthesis (3 β-HSD and CYP17A1) for further exploration. From the results obtained, the content of serum corticosterone was about 100 times higher than that of cortisol, and it was found that corticosterone and cortisol showed different dynamic changes within 48 h among the seven kinds of stress. In the subsequent detection of glucose, it was found that the dynamic shift in glucose was not consistent with the dynamic changes of corticosterone or cortisol entirely but seemed to be caused by the combination of the two. In the follow-up protein expression detection, we found that corticosterone seemed to respond to stress earlier. Therefore, it is concluded that the responses of corticosterone and cortisol to stress are independent, corticosterone may be more sensitive in the current seven acute stresses, and then they regulate glucose together to resist stress. The study aimed to fill the vacancy of corticosterone in fish research and provide a reference for the complete evaluation of fish stress degree.

A Case Study of Whistle Detection and Localization for Humpback Dolphins in Taiwan - Ching-Tang Hung; Wei-Yen Chu; Wei-Lun Li; Yen-Hsiang Huang; Wei-Chun Hu; Chi-Fang Chen (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
In recent years, Taiwan’s government has focused on policies regarding offshore wind farming near the Indo-Pacific humpback dolphin habitat, where marine mammal observation is a critical consideration. The present research developed an algorithm called National Taiwan University Passive Acoustic Monitoring (NTU_PAM) to assist marine mammal observers (MMOs). The algorithm performs whistle detection processing and whistle localization. Whistle detection processing is based on image processing and whistle feature extraction; whistle localization is based on the time difference of arrival (TDOA) method. To test the whistle detection performance, we used the same data to compare NTU_PAM and the widely used software PAMGuard. To test whistle localization, we designed a real field experiment where a sound source projected simulated whistles, which were then recorded by several hydrophone stations. The data were analyzed to locate the moving path of the source. The results show that localization accuracy was higher when the sound source position was in the detection region composed of hydrophone stations. This paper provides a method for MMOs to conveniently observe the migration path and population dynamics of cetaceans without ecological disturbance.

Two types of warm blobs in the Northeast Pacific and their potential effect on the El Niño - Ziyan Chen; Jian Shi; Chun Li (International Journal of Climatology, 2021)
In recent years, the predominant marine heatwaves in Northeast Pacific, the so‐called warm blobs, have exerted substantial environmental and socioeconomic influences on North America and its coastal waters. We select the historical warm blob events from 1951 to 2018 and divide them into double‐peak and single‐peak categories by their seasonal evolutions. The heat budget analyses attribute the leading contributor of double‐peak warm blobs to the surface heat flux at the first wintertime maximum while the vertical entrainment and diffusion take responsibility for the second peak 5 months later. The positive net heat flux anomalies indicate less heat loss from ocean to the atmosphere due to an exceptionally anomalous high as the northern lobe of the North Pacific Oscillation and intensive easterly anomalies, which counteract with the climatological westerlies. For the single‐peak category, the vertical entrainment and diffusion primarily trigger the warm blob and also lead to its termination. Moreover, the single‐peak warm blob induces positive sea surface temperature (SST) anomalies near the Baja California and establishes the Pacific Meridional Mode as the oceanic bridge to convey its influence onto the tropics and trigger the following El Niño around 10 months after the peak. In addition, the subsurface processes, such as the trade wind charging mechanism, also play an essential part by bringing warmer water upwards to the surface and hence cause the positive SST anomalies in equatorial central‐eastern Pacific. However, the interim connection between the double‐peak warm blob and El Niño is not very clear although their intensities appear to be stronger.

Environmental deterioration in rapid urbanisation: evidence from assessment of ecosystem service value in Wujiang, Suzhou - Li Yu; Yinchao Lyu; Chun Chen; Charles L. Choguill (Environment, Development and Sustainability, 2021)
Land use change is the most prominent feature of Chinese urbanisation. In China, the expansion of land consumed for urban development is inevitable given the rapid increases in the urban economy and urban population, but also in meeting the population’s increasing demand for better quality of life. This paper is based on a research study of Wujiang district in Suzhou, which is considered representative of many of the rapid urbanisation areas within the nation. The objective is to develop an in-depth understanding of the characteristics of land use change and how this change contributes to environmental deterioration, as assessed by changes in the ecosystem service value (ESV). In this study, ESV is defined as the environmental products and functions provided for human well-being. Based on local planning documents, Landsat TM remote-sensing images and field surveys, the research analyses the cost to the environment when traditional land uses are transformed into urbanisation. The research demonstrates that conversion to urban land use which ignores the limit and capacity of the environment can generate significant environmental costs, as assessed by ESV, which in turn, can lead to a deterioration of quality of life for inhabitants, the exact opposite of the original intention. The research demonstrates that by mapping the spatial distribution of ecological service values, ESV can be used as a guide to urban sustainable development.

Future trends and guidance for the triple bottom line and sustainability: a data driven bibliometric analysis - Ming-Lang Tseng; Chia-Hao Chang; Chun-Wei Remen Lin; Kuo-Jui Wu; Qing Chen; Li Xia; Bing Xue (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2020)
This study conducts a comprehensive literature review of articles on the triple bottom line (TBL) published from January 1997 to September 2018 to provide significant insights and support to guide further discussion. There were three booms in TBL publications, occurring in 2003, 2011, and 2015, and many articles attempt to address the issue of sustainability by employing the TBL. This literature analysis includes 720, 132, and 58 articles from the Web of Science (WOS), Inspec, and Scopus databases, respectively, and reveals the gaps in existing research. To discover the barriers and points of overlap, these articles are categorized into six aspects of the TBL: economic, environmental, social, operations, technology, and engineering. Examining the top 3 journals in terms of published articles on each aspect reveals the research trends and gaps. The findings provide solid evidence confirming the argument that the TBL as currently defined is insufficient to cover the entire concept of sustainability. The social and engineering aspects still require more discussion to support the linkage of the TBL and to reinforce its theoretical basis. Additionally, to discover the gaps in the data sources, theories applied, methods adopted, and types of contributions, this article summarizes 82 highly cited articles covering each aspect. This article offers theoretical insights by identifying the top contributing countries, institutions, authors, keyword networks, and authorship networks to encourage scholars to push the current discussion further forward, and it provides practical insights to bridge the gap between theory and practice for enhancing the efficiency and effectiveness of improvements.

Molecular cloning and expression analysis of myd88 from oriental weatherfish ( Misgurnus anguillicaudatus ) in response to bacterial challenge - Jian H. Chen; Xue Li; Meng J. Wang; Chun M. Wang; Yan Q. Peng; Hai H. Wang; Ming Zhu (Journal of Fish Biology, 2020)
Myeloid differentiation factor 88 (Myd88) plays an important role in both innate and adaptive immune response. In this study, the full‐length complementary DNA (cDNA) of myd88 from Misgurnus anguillicaudatus was characterized. The myd88 cDNA is 1333 bp in length and contains an 855 bp open reading frame encoding a predicted protein of 284 amino acids. The predicted protein possesses typical Myd88 domain structural features including a death domain in the N‐terminus, and box 1, 2, and 3 motifs of the Toll/IL‐1 receptor domain in the C‐terminus. Quantitative real‐time PCR (qRT‐PCR) revealed that myd88 messenger RNA (mRNA) was ubiquitously expressed in all examined tissues, especially highly in brain, kidney, blood, intestines and liver. qRT‐PCR and western blotting were used to determine the mRNA and protein levels of Myd88 after Aeromonas veronii challenge, respectively. The Myd88 was remarkably upregulated in response to infection of A. veronii. These results suggested that Myd88 may play a vital role during the immune response of M. anguillicaudatus against bacterial infection.

Abundance and residency dynamics of the Indo‐Pacific humpback dolphin, Sousa chinensis , in the Dafengjiang River Estuary, China - Chongwei Peng; Haiping Wu; Xianyan Wang; Qian Zhu; Thomas A. Jefferson; Chun‐Chieh Wang; Youhou Xu; Jian Li; Hu Huang; Mo Chen; Shiang‐Lin Huang (Marine Mammal Science, 2020)
Robust population size estimates are essential for informing population conservation status. Residency dynamics show population habitat use through time. Population size of Indo‐Pacific humpback dolphins ( Sousa chinensis ) has been extensively investigated in Chinese waters, but their residency dynamics are rarely known. Mark‐recapture analysis based on photo‐identification records was applied to humpback dolphins in the Dafengjiang River Estuary habitat, one of the key habitats in the northern Beibu Gulf, China. Movement analyses based on lagged identification rate indicated the humpback dolphins spent, on average, 78.5 days inside and 46.9 days outside the survey area. Within the study area, the humpback dolphin abundance was 83 identifiable dolphins. A total of 353–430 humpback dolphins, estimated by POPAN modeling, were involved in this fluid habitat‐use dynamic. Robust Design analysis showed strong seasonality in humpback dolphin abundance and emigration probability, implying a movement‐ and habitat‐use pattern likely associated with spatiotemporal distribution of oceanographic characteristics and prey occurrences. Population surveys and conservation measures currently conducted in Chinese waters seldom consider seasonality in movements between habitat patches, which can be addressed by genetic analyses across habitats and cross‐matching photo‐identification records among neighboring habitats.
