Exogenous H2S Ameliorates High Salt-Induced Hypertension by Alleviating Oxidative Stress and Inflammation in the Paraventricular Nucleus in Dahl S Rats - Yingying Liao; Yuanyuan Fan; Qinglin He; Yuwei Li; Dongdong Wu; Enshe Jiang (Cardiovascular Toxicology, 2022)
Hydrogen sulfide (H 2 S) is an important gaseous signaling molecule that regulates cardiovascular activity in animals. The hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN) is a major integrative region involved in blood pressure (BP) regulation. We explored whether exogenous H 2 S application by intraperitoneal injection of sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) alleviates BP increase induced by a high salt diet (HSD) and the role of PVN in Dahl salt-sensitive ( Dahl S ) rats. Dahl S rats were divided into four groups according to diet regime (normal salt diet [NSD] and HSD) and treatment method (daily intraperitoneal NaHS or saline injection). We monitored BP, food and water intake, and body weight for 8 weeks. Plasma, kidney, and brain tissues were collected at the end of the experiment. We found that exogenous H 2 S not only delayed BP elevation but also attenuated the increase in the levels of norepinephrine, cystatin C, and blood urea nitrogen in the plasma of Dahl S rats with an HSD. Furthermore, H 2 S enhanced the total antioxidant capacity, superoxide dismutase, and glutathione peroxidase in the PVN. Exogenous H 2 S attenuated the protein expression of the nuclear factor-κB pathway and proinflammatory cytokines, which were significantly higher in the PVN in rats with an HSD than in rats with an NSD. Additionally, exogenous H 2 S relieved PVN neuronal apoptosis induced by an HSD. These findings suggest that exogenous H 2 S attenuates hypertension caused by an HSD by ameliorating oxidative stress, inflammation, and apoptosis in the PVN. This study provides evidence of the benefits of peripheral H 2 S therapy for hypertension.

Nitrogen Limitation Enhanced Calcification and Sinking Rate in the Coccolithophorid Gephyrocapsa oceanica Along With Its Growth Being Reduced - Xiaowen Jiang; He Li; Shanying Tong; Kunshan Gao (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Phytoplankton are exposed to different concentrations of nutrients in different waters along with changing light levels during diurnal and seasonal cycles. We grew the coccolithophorid Gephyrocapsa oceanica semi-continuously at different nitrate levels under indoor low and outdoor high light conditions, and found that reduced nitrate availability significantly increased its production of particulate inorganic carbon (PIC), with its growth being reduced. High light treatment suppressed the growth of nitrate-limited cells and their efficiency of N assimilation by up to 63% compared to low light treatment. The combination of high light and nitrate limitation increased contents of PIC per cell due to sustained photochemical energy transfer, resulting in faster sinking rates by up to 82% in comparison with nitrate-repleted cells. Additionally, the sinking rates were positively correlated with ratios of PIC to particulate organic carbon (POC). These results imply that coccolithophores distributed in oligotrophic waters could be more effective as the ballast in aggregates, facilitating particulate organic carbon flux to deeper waters.

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

The Diversity and Nitrogen Metabolism of Culturable Nitrate-Utilizing Bacteria Within the Oxygen Minimum Zone of the Changjiang (Yangtze River) Estuary - Wenxuan He; Sizhen Liu; Zhichen Jiang; Jinshui Zheng; Xuegang Li; Dechao Zhang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
The nitrogen cycle is an indispensable part of the biogeochemical cycle, and the reactions that occur in the ocean oxygen minimum zone (OMZ) mediate much of the loss of nitrogen from oceans worldwide. Here, nitrate-utilizing bacteria were isolated from the water column at 17 stations within the OMZ of the Changjiang (Yangtze River) Estuary using selective media and a culture-dependent method. The microbial diversity, nitrogen metabolism and nitrate reduction test of culturable heterotrophic bacteria were examined. A total of 164 isolates were obtained; they were mostly affiliated with Proteobacteria (81.1%), Actinobacteria (5.5%), Bacteroidetes (12.3%), and Firmicutes (0.6%). Pseudomonas aeruginosa , Sphingobium naphthae , and Zunongwangia profunda were found at most stations. Among 24 tested representative strains, 8 were positive for nitrate reduction; they belonged to genera Aurantimonas , Halomonas , Marinobacter , Pseudomonas , Thalassospira , and Vibrio . Pseudomonas aeruginosa contained the genes ( napAB , norBC , nirS , and nosZ ) for complete denitrification and may be responsible for mediating denitrification. 66% representative isolates (16/24) contained genes for reducing nitrate to nitrite ( nasA , napAB , or narGHI ) and 79% representative isolates (19/24) possessed genes for converting nitrite to ammonia ( nirA or nirBD ), suggesting that nitrate and nitrite could act as electron acceptors to generate ammonium, subsequently being utilized as a reduced nitrogen source. This study improves our understanding of the microbial diversity within the OMZ of Changjiang Estuary and may facilitate the cultivation and exploitation of bacteria involved in the nitrogen cycle.

Carbon Transfer Processes of Food Web and Trophic Pathways in a Tropical Eutrophic Seagrass Meadow - Lijun Cui; Zhijian Jiang; Xiaoping Huang; Yunchao Wu; Songlin Liu; Qiming Chen; Jinlong Li; Jialu He (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Seagrass meadows provide important habitats and rich organic carbon sources for consumers at different trophic levels but are threatened by accelerating eutrophication in coastal waters. Nevertheless, at present, carbon transfer processes throughout the food web and trophic pathways in eutrophic seagrass meadows are still poorly known. To resolve this issue, carbon sources of different trophic communities in a eutrophic tropical seagrass meadow [Xincun (XC) bay, South China Sea] under eutrophication were examined in summer and winter using dual stable isotopes. The δ 13 C value of omnivores and carnivores overlapped more with that of herbivores and planktivores/filter feeders, which mainly overlapped with that of epiphytes in summer and macroalgae in winter. Meanwhile, epiphytes and macroalgae exhibited high biomass and corresponding highest contribution to herbivores, omnivores, and carnivores in summer and winter, respectively. These results suggest that the grazing food chain was the main trophic pathway in this eutrophic seagrass meadow, and that the transfer of carbon flow in the grazing food chain was mainly dominated by the proliferating epiphytes or macroalgae carbon. In contrast, the contribution of seagrass to detritivores in both seasons was higher than that of other food sources. Our findings suggest that in eutrophic tropical seagrass meadows, the proliferation of epiphytes or macroalgae induced by high nutrient loading, as well as their seasonal changes, has a greater impact on the transfer of carbon in the grazing food chain than that in the detritus food chain, and the seagrass fueled the food web mainly through the detritus food chain.

Ethylene‐regulated leaf lifespan explains divergent responses of plant productivity to warming among three hydrologically different growing seasons - Haiyan Ren; Guodong Han; Mai‐He Li; Cuiping Gao; Lin Jiang (Global Change Biology, 2021)
Leaf senescence is known to be regulated by the plant hormone ethylene, but how leaf lifespan responds to global environmental change and links to ecosystem‐level responses remains largely unexplored. Here we investigated the effects of climate warming and nitrogen addition on plant functional traits, plant hormone ethylene and net primary production in a 13‐year field experiment in a desert steppe. Across the last 3 years of the experiment (2016–2018), plant productivity increased under warming only in 2016, when there was above normal precipitation, but consistently increased with nitrogen addition. Warming enhanced net photosynthesis, leaf nitrogen and ethylene production and reduced leaf lifespan in 2016 (a wet year), but not in 2017 (a drought year); the effect of warming in 2018 (a year with normal precipitation) was opposite to 2016, likely due to the below‐normal precipitation in the mid‐growing season in 2018. Nitrogen addition led to increases in leaf nitrogen, ethylene production and net photosynthesis, and declines in leaf lifespan in 2016 and 2018, but not in 2017. The ethylene‐regulated lifespan was further evidenced by the addition of CoCl 2 (an ethylene biosynthesis inhibitor) that reduced ethylene production and prolonged lifespan. Structural equation modeling showed that leaf lifespan had a negative effect on plant productivity, both directly and indirectly via its negative effect on net photosynthesis, across all 3 years. Our results demonstrate the divergent responses of leaf lifespan and, in turn, plant productivity to warming under inter‐annual and intra‐annual precipitation variation, thus linking plant hormone production, functional traits and ecosystem functioning in the face of global environmental change.

Elevated pCO2 Impedes Succession of Phytoplankton Community From Diatoms to Dinoflagellates Along With Increased Abundance of Viruses and Bacteria - Ruiping Huang; Jiazhen Sun; Yunlan Yang; Xiaowen Jiang; Zhen Wang; Xue Song; Tifeng Wang; Di Zhang; He Li; Xiangqi Yi; Shouchang Chen; Nanou Bao; et al. (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Eutrophic coastal regions are highly productive and greatly influenced by human activities. Primary production supporting the coastal ecosystems is supposed to be affected by progressive ocean acidification driven by increasing CO 2 emissions. In order to investigate the effects of high p CO 2 (HC) on eutrophic plankton community structure and ecological functions, we employed 9 mesocosms and carried out an experiment under ambient (∼410 ppmv) and future high (1000 ppmv) atmospheric p CO 2 conditions, using in situ plankton community in Wuyuan Bay, East China Sea. Our results showed that HC along with natural seawater temperature rise significantly boosted biomass of diatoms with decreased abundance of dinoflagellates in the late stage of the experiment, demonstrating that HC repressed the succession from diatoms to dinoflagellates, a phenomenon observed during algal blooms in the East China Sea. HC did not significantly influence the primary production or biogenic silica contents of the phytoplankton assemblages. However, the HC treatments increased the abundance of viruses and heterotrophic bacteria, reflecting a refueling of nutrients for phytoplankton growth from virus-mediated cell lysis and bacterial degradation of organic matters. Conclusively, our results suggest that increasing CO 2 concentrations can modulate plankton structure including the succession of phytoplankton community and the abundance of viruses and bacteria in eutrophic coastal waters, which may lead to altered biogeochemical cycles of carbon and nutrients.

Kidney disease is manifested in a wide variety of phenotypes, many of which have an important hereditary component. To delineate the genotypic and phenotypic spectrum of pediatric nephropathy, a multicenter registration system is being implemented based on the Chinese Children Genetic Kidney Disease Database (CCGKDD). In this study, all the patients with kidney and urological diseases were recruited from 2014 to 2020. Genetic analysis was conducted using exome sequencing for families with multiple affected individuals with nephropathy or clinical suspicion of a genetic kidney disease owing to early-onset or extrarenal features. The genetic diagnosis was confirmed in 883 of 2256 (39.1%) patients from 23 provinces in China. Phenotypic profiles showed that the primary diagnosis included steroid-resistant nephrotic syndrome (SRNS, 23.5%), glomerulonephritis (GN, 32.2%), congenital anomalies of the kidney and urinary tract (CAKUT, 21.2%), cystic renal disease (3.9%), renal calcinosis/stone (3.6%), tubulopathy (9.7%), and chronic kidney disease of unknown etiology (CKDu, 5.8%). The pathogenic variants of 105 monogenetic disorders were identified. Ten distinct genomic disorders were identified as pathogenic copy number variants (CNVs) in 11 patients. The diagnostic yield differed by subgroups, and was highest in those with cystic renal disease (66.3%), followed by tubulopathy (58.4%), GN (57.7%), CKDu (43.5%), SRNS (29.2%), renal calcinosis /stone (29.3%) and CAKUT (8.6%). Reverse phenotyping permitted correct identification in 40 cases with clinical reassessment and unexpected genetic conditions. We present the results of the largest cohort of children with kidney disease in China where diagnostic exome sequencing was performed. Our data demonstrate the utility of family-based exome sequencing, and indicate that the combined analysis of genotype and phenotype based on the national patient registry is pivotal to the genetic diagnosis of kidney disease.

Application of radar data assimilation on convective precipitation forecasts based on water vapor retrieval - Zhixin He; Dongyong Wang; Xuexing Qiu; Yang Jiang; Huimin Li; Aiqing Shu (Meteorology and Atmospheric Physics, 2021)
Based on a short-time heavy rainfall in Anhui and the weather research and forecasting (WRF) model, the water vapor in the initial field of the model is retrieved using the statistical relationships of the reflectivity factor from the Doppler weather radar with the relative humidity and hydrometeor. Three-dimensional variational (3DVAR) assimilation method is used to assimilate the radar reflectivity factor and radial velocity, and then the impact of assimilating retrieved water vapor on the analysis and forecast of the torrential rain is assessed. The results show that, after assimilating the retrieved water vapor, the water vapor field in the model is significantly improved. The water vapor content in the middle layer of the model in the analyzed field is increased, corresponding well with the convective region. Meanwhile, the precipitation distribution during this weather process is successfully simulated. The mesoscale characteristics are better presented by the imageries of radar reflectivity factor, and false echoes are partially reduced. Besides, the prediction of short-time heavy rainfall regions is closer to the actual observations. After assimilating the retrieved water vapor, the simulated one-hour accumulated rainfall is closer to the actual observation, and the fraction skill score (FSS) is higher.

Interactions Between Ultraviolet B Radiation, Warming, and Changing Nitrogen Source May Reduce the Accumulation of Toxic Pseudo-nitzschia multiseries Biomass in Future Coastal Oceans - Kyla J. Kelly; Fei-Xue Fu; Xiaowen Jiang; He Li; Dong Xu; Nina Yang; Michelle A. DeMers; Joshua D. Kling; Kunshan Gao; Naihao Ye; David A. Hutchins (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Understanding the environmental conditions that trigger Pseudo-nitzschia bloom formation and domoic acid (DA) production is critical as the frequency and severity of these toxic blooms increases in the face of anthropogenic change. However, predicting the formation of these harmful blooms in a future ocean remains a challenge. Previous studies have examined the effects of single environmental drivers on Pseudo-nitzschia spp. growth and toxin production, but few have considered the interactions between them. In this multiple driver study with Pseudo-nitzschia multiseries , we used a full factorial matrix experimental design to examine the simultaneous effects of temperature (20 and 25°C), nitrogen source (nitrate and urea), and irradiance (photosynthetically active radiation with and without ultraviolet B radiation; UVB). This strain of P. multiseries was unable to withstand prolonged exposures (>0.5 h) to 0.06 mw⋅cm –2 UVB light, with implications for near-surface bloom formation if future shallower mixed layers increase UVB exposure. Growth rates were inhibited by UVB, but photosynthesis and carbon fixation continued at a reduced capacity. Additionally, DA synthesis continued despite UVB-induced growth inhibition. Warming by 5°C enhanced cellular DA quotas three-fold. Within these warmer treatments, urea-grown cultures exposed to UVB had the highest amount of DA per cell, suggesting that interactive effects between UVB exposure, warming, and urea can synergistically enhance toxin production. However, overall production of toxic biomass was low, as growth-integrated DA production rates were near zero. This indicates that although Pseudo-nitzschia multiseries cell-specific toxicity could worsen in an anthropogenically-altered future ocean, bloom formation may be inhibited by increased exposure to UVB. This multi-variable experimental approach revealed previously unknown interactions that could not have been predicted based on combined effects of single-variable experiments. Although P. multiseries DA production may be enhanced in a future ocean, inherent sensitivity to prolonged UVB exposure may moderate trophic transfer of toxin to coastal food webs.

Study on risk factors, bacterial species, and drug resistance of acute pyelonephritis associated with ureteral stent after percutaneous nephrolithotomy - Guo Jiang; Jiang Li; He Long; Chen Qiulin; Ren Jin; Yang Yaodong; Dong Xingyou; Zhao Jiang; Zhang Zhenyang (European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2021)
The purpose of this study is to explore the risk factors, bacterial species, and drug resistance of acute pyelonephritis (AP) associated with ureteral stent after percutaneous nephrolithotomy (PCNL) and to provide reference for clinical intervention. The clinical data of 415 patients with indwelling ureteral stent after PCNL from December 2016 to May 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into infection group ( n = 54) and non-infection group ( n = 361) according to whether patients had AP. Patients’ clinical data, blood and urine bacterial culture, and drug sensitivity were collected and analyzed. The incidence of AP associated with ureteral stent after PCNL was 13.01% and diabetes mellitus ( P = 0.001), postoperative stone residue ( P = 0.002), urinary leucocytes ≥ 100/HP ( P = 0.018), positive urine culture results ( P = 0.001), ureteral stent retention time ≥ 8 weeks ( P = 0.004), and high S.T.O.N.E. score ( P = 0.014) are independent risk factors for it. Escherichia coli (40.54%, 47.82%), Klebsiella pneumoniae (16.21%, 15.21%), Pseudomonas aeruginosa (10.81%, 4.34%), Enterococcus faecalis (21.6%, 19.56%), and epidermis Staphylococci (10.81%, 13.33%) are the main pathogens in blood and urine. The main sensitive drugs of pathogenic bacteria are imipenem, meropenem, tigecycline, piperacillin/tazobactam, ceftazidime, linezolid, teicoplanin, levofloxacin, vancomycin, tigecycline, etc., while levofloxacin, norfloxacin, penicillin G, first, and second-generation cephalosporins showed a strong drug resistance rate (> 70%). This study found that diabetes, postoperative stone residuals, urinary leukocytes ≧ 100 cells/HP, positive urine culture results, ureteral stent indwelling time ≧ 8 weeks, and high S.T.O.N.E. score were independent of AP associated with ureteral stent after PCNL risk factors and Escherichia coli is the main pathogenic bacteria and shows drug resistance.

PapA , a peptidoglycan‐associated protein, interacts with OmpC and maintains cell envelope integrity - Yun‐Hao Wang; Hong‐He Chen; Zhou Huang; Xiao‐Jing Li; Nan Zhou; Chang Liu; Cheng‐Ying Jiang; De‐Feng Li; Shuang‐Jiang Liu (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary The bacterial cell envelope is critical to support and maintain cellular life. In Gram‐negative bacterial cells, the outer membrane and the peptidoglycan layer are two important parts of the cell envelope and they harbour abundant proteins. Here, we report the identification and characterization of a previously unknown p eptidoglycan‐ a ssociated p rotein, PapA, from the Gram‐negative Comamonas testosteroni . PapA bound peptidoglycan with its C‐terminal domain and interacted with the outer‐membrane porin OmpC. The PapA‐OmpC complex riveted the outer membrane and the peptidoglycan layer, and played a role in maintaining cell envelope integrity. When papA was disrupted, the mutant CNB‐1Δ papA apparently had an outer membrane partly separated from the peptidoglycan layer. Phenotypically, the mutant CNB‐1Δ papA lost chemotactic responses and had longer lag‐phase of growth, less flagellation and higher sensitivity to harsh environments. Totally, 1093 functionally unknown PapA homologues were identified from the public NR protein database and they were mainly distributed in Burkholderiales of Betaproteobacteria. Our finding provides a clue that the PapA homologous proteins might function as a rivet to maintain cell envelope integrity in those Gram‐negative bacteria.

Plastic pollution is a global concern given its prevalence in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Studies have been conducted on the distribution and impact of plastic pollution in marine ecosystems, but little is known on terrestrial ecosystems. Plastic mulch has been widely used to increase crop yields worldwide, yet the impact of plastic residues in cropland soils to soil health and crop production in the long term remained unclear. In this paper, using a global meta‐analysis, we found that the use of plastic mulch can indeed increase crop yields on average by 25%–42% in the immediate season due to the increase of soil temperature (+8%) and moisture (+17%). However, the unabated accumulation of film residues in the field negatively impacts its physicochemical properties linked to healthy soil and threatens food production in the long term. It has multiple negative impacts on plant growth including crop yield (at the mean rate of −3% for every additional 100 kg/ha of film residue), plant height (−2%) and root weight (−5%), and soil properties including soil water evaporation capacity (−2%), soil water infiltration rate (−8%), soil organic matter (−0.8%) and soil available phosphorus (−5%) based on meta‐regression. Using a nationwide field survey of China, the largest user of plastic mulch worldwide, we found that plastic residue accumulation in cropland soils has reached 550,800 tonnes, with an estimated 6%–10% reduction in cotton yield in some polluted sites based on current level of plastic residue content. Immediate actions should be taken to ensure the recovery of plastic film mulch and limit further increase in film residue loading to maintain the sustainability of these croplands.

Alpine grassland plants grow earlier and faster but biomass remains unchanged over 35 years of climate change - Hao Wang; Huiying Liu; Guangmin Cao; Zhiyuan Ma; Yikang Li; Fawei Zhang; Xia Zhao; Xinquan Zhao; Lin Jiang; Nathan J. Sanders; Aimée T. Classen; Jin‐Sheng He (Ecology Letters, 2020)
Satellite data indicate significant advancement in alpine spring phenology over decades of climate warming, but corresponding field evidence is scarce. It is also unknown whether this advancement results from an earlier shift of phenological events, or enhancement of plant growth under unchanged phenological pattern. By analyzing a 35‐year dataset of seasonal biomass dynamics of a Tibetan alpine grassland, we show that climate change promoted both earlier phenology and faster growth, without changing annual biomass production. Biomass production increased in spring due to a warming‐induced earlier onset of plant growth, but decreased in autumn due mainly to increased water stress. Plants grew faster but the fast‐growing period shortened during the mid‐growing season. These findings provide the first in situ evidence of long‐term changes in growth patterns in alpine grassland plant communities, and suggest that earlier phenology and faster growth will jointly contribute to plant growth in a warming climate.

(In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology - Animal, 2020)
Simulated microgravity can significantly affect various cell types and multiple systems of the human body, such as cardiovascular system, skeletal muscle system, and immune system, and is known to cause anemia and loss of electrolyte and fluids. Epidermal stem cells (EpSCs) were cultured in a rotary cell culture system (RCCS) bioreactor to simulate microgravity. The metabolites of EpSCs were identified by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry (LC-MS). Compared with normal gravity (NG) group, a total of 57 different metabolites of EpSCs were identified ( P < 0.05, VIP > 1), including lipids and lipid-like molecules (51 molecules), amino acids (5 molecules), nucleosides, nucleotides, and analogues (1 molecule). According to the partial least squares discriminant analysis (PLS-DA) score plot, a VIP > 1 and P < 0.05 were obtained for the 57 different metabolites, of which 23 molecules were significantly downregulated and 34 were significantly upregulated in simulated microgravity (SMG) group. These results showed that SMG has a significant impact on different pathways, and Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathway enrichment analysis indicated that multiple pathways were involved, mainly the amino acid metabolism pathway, lipid metabolism pathway, membrane transport pathway, and cell growth and death pathways. Thus, the metabolic profile of EpSCs was changed under SMG. Exploring the metabolic profile of EpSCs would be helpful to further understand the growth characteristics of EpSCs under SMG, which will provide a new approach to explore the metabolomics mechanism of stress injury and repair trauma under SMG.

TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open access - Jens Kattge; Gerhard Bönisch; Sandra Díaz; Sandra Lavorel; Iain Colin Prentice; Paul Leadley; Susanne Tautenhahn; Gijsbert D. A. Werner; Tuomas Aakala; Mehdi Abedi; Alicia T. R. Acosta; George C. Adamidis; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2020)
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people. Plant trait data thus represent the basis for a vast area of research spanning from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology, to biodiversity conservation, ecosystem and landscape management, restoration, biogeography and earth system modelling. Since its foundation in 2007, the TRY database of plant traits has grown continuously. It now provides unprecedented data coverage under an open access data policy and is the main plant trait database used by the research community worldwide. Increasingly, the TRY database also supports new frontiers of trait‐based plant research, including the identification of data gaps and the subsequent mobilization or measurement of new data. To support this development, in this article we evaluate the extent of the trait data compiled in TRY and analyse emerging patterns of data coverage and representativeness. Best species coverage is achieved for categorical traits—almost complete coverage for ‘plant growth form’. However, most traits relevant for ecology and vegetation modelling are characterized by continuous intraspecific variation and trait–environmental relationships. These traits have to be measured on individual plants in their respective environment. Despite unprecedented data coverage, we observe a humbling lack of completeness and representativeness of these continuous traits in many aspects. We, therefore, conclude that reducing data gaps and biases in the TRY database remains a key challenge and requires a coordinated approach to data mobilization and trait measurements. This can only be achieved in collaboration with other initiatives.

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.

Summary The worldwide use of the phenylurea herbicide, isoproturon (IPU), has resulted in considerable concern about its environmental fate. Although many microbial metabolites of IPU are known and IPU‐mineralizing bacteria have been isolated, the molecular mechanism of IPU catabolism has not been elucidated yet. In this study, complete genes that encode the conserved IPU catabolic pathway were revealed, based on comparative analysis of the genomes of three IPU‐mineralizing sphingomonads and subsequent experimental validation. The complete genes included a novel hydrolase gene ddhA , which is responsible for the cleavage of the urea side chain of the IPU demethylated products; a distinct aniline dioxygenase gene cluster adoQTA1A2BR , which has a broad substrate range; and an inducible catechol meta ‐cleavage pathway gene cluster adoXEGKLIJC . Furthermore, the initial mono‐ N ‐demethylation genes pdmAB were further confirmed to be involved in the successive N ‐demethylation of the IPU mono‐ N ‐demethylated product. These IPU‐catabolic genes were organized into four transcription units and distributed on three plasmids. They were flanked by multiple mobile genetic elements and highly conserved among IPU‐mineralizing sphingomonads. The elucidation of the molecular mechanism of IPU catabolism will enhance our understanding of the microbial mineralization of IPU and provide insights into the evolutionary scenario of the conserved IPU‐catabolic pathway.
