Impact of air pollution exposure during various periods of pregnancy on term birth weight: a large-sample, retrospective population-based cohort study - Li Shang; Liyan Huang; Liren Yang; Longtao Leng; Cuifang Qi; Guilan Xie; Ruiqi Wang; Leqian Guo; Wenfang Yang; Mei Chun Chung (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021)
Previous studies have suggested that maternal exposure to air pollution might affect term birth weight. However, the conclusions are controversial. Birth data of all term newborns born in Xi’an city of Shaanxi, China, from 2015 to 2018 and whose mother lived in Xi’an during pregnancy were selected form the Birth Registry Database. And the daily air quality data of Xi’an city was collected from Chinese Air Quality Online Monitoring and Analysis Platform. Generalized additive models (GAM) and 2-level binary logistic regression models were used to estimate the effects of air pollution exposure on term birth weight, the risk term low birth weight (TLBW), and macrosomia. Finally, 321521 term newborns were selected, including 4369(1.36%) TLBW infants and 24,960 (7.76%) macrosomia. The average pollution levels of PM 2.5 , PM 10 , and NO 2 in Xi’an city from 2015 to 2018 were higher than national limits. During the whole pregnancy, maternal exposure to PM 2.5 , PM 10 , SO 2 , and CO all significantly reduced the term birth weight and increased the risk of TLBW. However, NO 2 and O 3 exposure have significantly increased the term birth weight, and O 3 even increased the risk of macrosomia significantly. Those effects were also observed in the first and second trimesters of pregnancy. But during the third trimester, high level of air quality index (AQI) and maternal exposure to PM 2.5 , PM 10 , SO 2 , NO 2 , and CO increased the term birth weight and the risk of macrosomia, while O 3 exposure was contrary to this effect. The findings suggested that prenatal exposure to air pollution might cause adverse impacts on term birth weight, and the effects varied with trimesters and pollutants, which provides further pieces of evidence for the adverse effects of air pollution exposure in heavy polluted-area on term birth weight.

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.

Effect of miR-27b-5p on apoptosis of human vascular endothelial cells induced by simulated microgravity - Yi-Kai Pan; Cheng-Fei Li; Yuan Gao; Yong-Chun Wang; Xi-Qing Sun (Apoptosis, 2020)
Weightlessness-induced cardiovascular dysfunction can lead to physiological and pathological consequences. It has been shown that spaceflight or simulated microgravity can alter expression profiles of some microRNAs (miRNAs). Here, we attempt to identify the role of miRNAs in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs) apoptosis under simulated microgravity. RNA-sequencing and quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) assays were used to identify differentially expressed miRNAs in HUVECs under simulated microgravity. Then we obtained the target genes of these miRNAs through target analysis software. Moreover, GO and KEGG enrichment analysis were performed. The effects of these miRNAs on HUVECs apoptosis were evaluated by flow cytometry, Western blot and Hoechst staining. Furthermore, we obtained the target gene of miR-27b-5p by luciferase assay, qRT-PCR and Western blot. Finally, we investigated the relationship between this target gene and miR-27b-5p in HUVECs apoptosis under normal gravity or simulated microgravity. We found 29 differentially expressed miRNAs in HUVECs under simulated microgravity. Of them, the expressions of 3 miRNAs were validated by qRT-PCR. We demonstrated that miR-27b-5p affected HUVECs apoptosis by inhibiting zinc fingers and homeoboxes 1 (ZHX1). Our results reported here demonstrate for the first time that simulated microgravity can alter the expression of some miRNAs in HUVECs and miR-27b-5p may protect HUVECs from apoptosis under simulated microgravity by targeting ZHX1.

Background Both photosynthetic pigments and chloroplasts in plant leaf cells play an important role in deciding on the photosynthetic capacity and efficiency in plants. Systematical investigating the regulatory mechanism of chloroplast development and chlorophyll (Chl) content variation is necessary for clarifying the photosynthesis mechanism for crops. Objective This study aims to explore the critical regulatory mechanism of leaf color mutation in a yellow–green leaf sesame mutant Siyl - 1 . Methods We performed the genetic analysis of the yellow-green leaf color mutation using the F 2 population of the mutant Siyl - 1 . We compared the morphological structure of the chloroplasts, chlorophyll content of the three genotypes of the mutant F 2 progeny. We performed the two-dimensional gel electrophoresis (2-DE) and compared the protein expression variation between the mutant progeny and the wild type. Results Genetic analysis indicated that there were 3 phenotypes of the F 2 population of the mutant Siyl - 1 , i.e., YY type with light-yellow leaf color (lethal); Yy type with yellow-green leaf color, and yy type with normal green leaf color. The yellow-green mutation was controlled by an incompletely dominant nuclear gene, Siyl - 1 . Compared with the wild genotype, the chloroplast number and the morphological structure in YY and Yy mutant lines varied evidently. The chlorophyll content also significantly decreased ( P < 0.05 ). The 2-DE comparison showed that there were 98 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) among YY, Yy, and yy lines. All the 98 DEPs were classified into 5 functional groups. Of which 82.7% DEPs proteins belonged to the photosynthesis and energy metabolism group. Conclusion The results revealed the genetic character of yellow-green leaf color mutant Siyl - 1 . 98 DEPs were found in YY and Yy mutant compared with the wild genotype. The regulation pathway related with the yellow leaf trait mutation in sesame was analyzed for the first time. The findings supplied the basic theoretical and gene basis for leaf color and chloroplast development mechanism in sesame.

Summary Verticillium dahliae is a soil‐borne fungus that causes vascular wilt on numerous plants worldwide. The fungus survives in the soil for up to 14 years by producing melanized microsclerotia. The protective function of melanin in abiotic stresses is well documented. Here, we found that the V . dahliae tetraspan transmembrane protein VdSho1, a homolog of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae Sho1, acts as an osmosensor, and is required for plant penetration and melanin biosynthesis. The deletion mutant Δ Sho1 was incubated on a cellophane membrane substrate that mimics the plant epidermis, revealing that the penetration of Δ Sho1 strain was reduced compared to the wild‐type strain. Furthermore, VdSho1 regulates melanin biosynthesis by a signalling mechanism requiring a kinase‐kinase signalling module of Vst50‐Vst11‐Vst7. Strains, Δ Vst50 , Δ Vst7 and Δ Vst11 also displayed defective penetration and melanin production like the Δ Sho1 strain. Defects in penetration and melanin production in Δ Sho1 were restored by overexpression of Vst50 , suggesting that Vst50 lies downstream of VdSho1 in the regulatory pathway governing penetration and melanin biosynthesis. Data analyses revealed that the transmembrane portion of VdSho1 was essential for both membrane penetration and melanin production. This study demonstrates that Vst50‐Vst11‐Vst7 module regulates VdSho1‐mediated plant penetration and melanin production in V . dahliae , contributing to virulence.

Aeromonas schubertii is a major epidemiological agent that threatens cultured snakeheads ( Channidae ) and has caused great economic losses in fish‐farming industries in China in recent years. In present study, a specific TaqMan minor groove binder ( MGB ) probe fluorescence real‐time quantitative PCR ( qPCR ) assay was developed to rapidly detect and quantify A. schubertii . A pair of qPCR primers and a TaqMan MGB probe were selected from the rpoD gene, which were shown to be specific for A. schubertii . A high correlation coefficient ( R 2 = 0.9998) in a standard curve with a 103% efficiency was obtained. Moreover, the qPCR method's detection limit was as low as 18 copies/μl, which was 100 times more sensitive than that of conventional PCR . The detection results for the A. schubertii in pond water and fish tissue were consistent with those of the viable counts. Bacterial load changes detected by qPCR in different tissues of snakeheads infected with A. schubertii showed that the gills and intestines may be the entry for A. schubertii , and the spleen and kidney are major sites for A. schubertii replication. The established method in present study should be a useful tool for the early surveillance and quantitation of A. schubertii .

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.

Summary The small‐molecule sunscreen compounds, mycosporine‐like amino acids (MAAs), have strong ultraviolet (UV) absorption and can protect cyanobacteria against UV‐B damage. However, the molecular mechanism underlying UV‐B signaling and MAA chemical diversity remain largely unclear. Here, we identified a five‐gene cluster for MAA biosynthesis in the solar radiation and desiccation tolerant cyanobacterium Nostoc flagelliforme . A LuxR family protein OrrA was identified as a positive UV‐B responsive regulator binding to the promoter region of this gene cluster. OrrA functions as an activator mediating the UV‐B induced MAA biosynthesis. Overexpression of orrA strengthened its UV‐B tolerance during desiccation, and enhanced the photosynthetic recovery upon rehydration. Heterologous expression of this gene cluster in Anabaena PCC 7120 produces the same MAA as that in field samples of N . flagelliforme . The MAA structure is assigned as mycosporine‐2‐(4‐deoxygadusolyl‐ornithine) with a molecular weight of 756 Da, the structurally unique MAA compound reported to date. This MAA was catalyzed by mysD‐mysC2‐mysC1 encoding proteins from 4‐deoxygadusol, which was synthesized through the catalysis of mysA‐mysB products. Thus, we elucidated the transcriptional mechanism for a novel type MAA biosynthesis in solar radiation and desiccation tolerant cyanobacteria, which shed light on the identification of other components for UV‐B signaling in cyanobacteria.

Impact assessment of climate change on rice productivity in the Indochinese Peninsula using a regional‐scale crop model - Sanai Li; Qingguo Wang; J.A. Chun (International Journal of Climatology, 2017)
In order to assess the impact of climate change on rice yields for the Indochina peninsula region, a regional rice model was forced with climate variables from CORDEX ‐East Asia climate models. The future climate's impact on rice yield varies between countries, and it is dependent on both current climate conditions and the projected future climate. Climate change alone would lead to a 3.5–23.2% and 5.8–27.2% reduction in rice yield for the 2020s and 2040s, respectively, in the Indochinese peninsula, with the largest decreases in Cambodia. The negative impacts of climate change on rice can be partly offset by the positive effect of CO 2 fertilization. For the Indochinese peninsula regions, changes in rice yield are quite sensitive to increases in temperature, and each one‐degree increase in temperature can cause about a 10.26% reduction in rice yields. The uncertainty in the predicted temperature from the regional climate models used contributed to approximately 59.7% of the uncertainty in rice yield projections. This result implies that the uncertainty in the projected temperatures from climate models could be one of the major sources of uncertainty in impact assessments. In this study, adaptation strategies, including changes in planting dates and use of irrigation and heat tolerant varieties, were tested. The use of tolerant varieties and shifting planting date are simple management responses that may offset a small part of the negative impact of climate change. For all the countries in the Indochinese peninsula, the CO 2 fertilization effect and irrigation can offset most of the negative impacts caused by climate change by 2050, and irrigation is an effective adaptation method.

Nearly a decade‐long repeatable seasonal diversity patterns of bacterioplankton communities in the eutrophic Lake Donghu (Wuhan, China) - Qingyun Yan; James C. Stegen; Yuhe Yu; Ye Deng; Xinghao Li; Shu Wu; Lili Dai; Xiang Zhang; Jinjin Li; Chun Wang; Jiajia Ni; Xuemei Li; et al. (Molecular Ecology, 2017)
Uncovering which environmental factors govern community diversity patterns and how ecological processes drive community turnover are key questions related to understand the community assembly. However, the ecological mechanisms regulating long‐term variations of bacterioplankton communities in lake ecosystems remain poorly understood. Here we present nearly a decade‐long study of bacterioplankton communities from the eutrophic Lake Donghu (Wuhan, China) using 16S rRNA gene amplicon sequencing with MiSeq platform. We found strong repeatable seasonal diversity patterns in terms of both common (detected in more than 50% samples) and dominant (relative abundance >1%) bacterial taxa turnover. Moreover, community composition tracked the seasonal temperature gradient, indicating that temperature is a key environmental factor controlling observed diversity patterns. Total phosphorus also contributed significantly to the seasonal shifts in bacterioplankton composition. However, any spatial pattern of bacterioplankton communities across the main lake areas within season was overwhelmed by their temporal variabilities. Phylogenetic analysis further indicated that 75%–82% of community turnover was governed by homogeneous selection due to consistent environmental conditions within seasons, suggesting that the microbial communities in Lake Donghu are mainly controlled by niche‐based processes. Therefore, dominant niches available within seasons might be occupied by similar combinations of bacterial taxa with modest dispersal rates throughout different lake areas.

Summary Gut microbiota typically occupy habitats with definable limits/borders that are comparable to oceanic islands. The gut therefore can be regarded as an ‘island’ for the assembly of microbial communities within the ‘sea’ of surrounding environments. This study aims to reveal the ecological mechanisms that govern microbiota in the fish gut ‘island’ ecosystem. Taxonomic compositions, phylogenetic diversity, and community turnover across host development were analyzed via the high‐throughput sequencing of 16S rRNA gene amplicons. The results indicate that the Shannon diversity of gut microbiota in the three examined freshwater fish species all significantly decreased with host development, and the dominant bacterial taxa also changed significantly during host development. Null model and phylogenetic‐based mean nearest taxon distance (MNTD) analyses suggest that host gut environmental filtering led to the assembly of microbial communities in the fish gut ‘island’. However, the phylogenetic clustering of local communities and deterministic processes that governed community turnover became less distinct as the fish developed. The observed mechanisms that shaped fish gut microbiota seemed to be mainly shaped by the gut environment and by some other selective changes accompanying the host development process. These findings greatly enhance our understanding of stage‐specific community assembly patterns in the fish gut ecosystem.
