Interactions and associated resistance development mechanisms between microplastics, antibiotics and heavy metals in the aquaculture environment - Zhen Li; Muhammad Junaid; Guanglong Chen; Jun Wang (Reviews in Aquaculture, 2022)
Microplastics (MPs), antibiotics and heavy metals unavoidably contaminate the aquaculture environment, with serious ecological and human health consequences. Antibiotic‐resistance genes (ARGs) and metal resistance genes (MRGs) are induced in microorganisms in the environment as a defence mechanism against antibiotics and heavy metals respectively. Furthermore, heavy metals in the aquaculture environment will cause bacteria to employ antibiotic resistance through co‐selection (co‐resistance or cross‐resistance) and other potential mechanisms. MPs may also act as potential carriers of multidrug resistance in aquaculture environments because they are hotspots for the enrichment and transmission of antibiotic resistance. Multidrug‐resistant (MDR) microorganisms in the aquaculture environment may infiltrate aquatic organisms via the food chain (eg MDR‐microorganisms→myctophids→ tuna/ squid/ whales/ seabirds/ seals), and after long‐term enrichment, they may gain access to the human body, posing a major risk to aquaculture and human health. As a result, this review article summarises contamination of MPs, heavy metal and antibiotics in global aquaculture settings; discusses the generation of ARGs, MRGs and common selection mechanisms for resistance development and emphasises the role of MPs as hot spots for antibiotic‐resistance selective enrichment, as well as potential carriers of multi‐drug‐resistant genes (MDRGs), in the aquaculture environment, posing an increasing threat to aquaculture and even human health.

Oxidation of organoarsenicals and antimonite by a novel flavin monooxygenase widely present in soil bacteria - Jun Zhang; Jian Chen; Yi‐Fei Wu; Zi‐Ping Wang; Ji‐Guo Qiu; Xiao‐Long Li; Feng Cai; Ke‐Qing Xiao; Xiao‐Xu Sun; Barry P. Rosen; Fang‐Jie Zhao (Environmental Microbiology, 2022)
Summary Arsenic can be biomethylated to form a variety of organic arsenicals differing in toxicity and environmental mobility. Trivalent methylarsenite (MAs(III)) produced in the methylation process is more toxic than inorganic arsenite (As(III)). MAs(III) also serves as a primitive antibiotic and, consequently, some environmental microorganisms have evolved mechanisms to detoxify MAs(III). However, the mechanisms of MAs(III) detoxification are not well understood. In this study, we identified an arsenic resistance ( ars ) operon consisting of three genes, arsRVK , that contribute to MAs(III) resistance in Ensifer adhaerens ST2. ArsV is annotated as an NADPH‐dependent flavin monooxygenase with unknown function. Expression of arsV in the arsenic hypersensitive Escherichia coli strain AW3110 Δars conferred resistance to MAs(III) and the ability to oxidize MAs(III) to MAs(V). In the presence of NADPH and either FAD or FMN, purified ArsV protein was able to oxidize both MAs(III) to MAs(V) and Sb(III) to Sb(V). Genes with arsV ‐like sequences are widely present in soils and environmental bacteria. Metagenomic analysis of five paddy soils showed the abundance of arsV ‐like sequences of 0.12–0.25 ppm. These results demonstrate that ArsV is a novel enzyme for the detoxification of MAs(III) and Sb(III) and the genes encoding ArsV are widely present in soil bacteria.

Best Practice Data Standards for Discrete Chemical Oceanographic Observations - Li-Qing Jiang; Denis Pierrot; Rik Wanninkhof; Richard A. Feely; Bronte Tilbrook; Simone Alin; Leticia Barbero; Robert H. Byrne; Brendan R. Carter; Andrew G. Dickson; Jean-Pierre Gattuso; Dana Greeley; et al. (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Effective data management plays a key role in oceanographic research as cruise-based data, collected from different laboratories and expeditions, are commonly compiled to investigate regional to global oceanographic processes. Here we describe new and updated best practice data standards for discrete chemical oceanographic observations, specifically those dealing with column header abbreviations, quality control flags, missing value indicators, and standardized calculation of certain properties. These data standards have been developed with the goals of improving the current practices of the scientific community and promoting their international usage. These guidelines are intended to standardize data files for data sharing and submission into permanent archives. They will facilitate future quality control and synthesis efforts and lead to better data interpretation. In turn, this will promote research in ocean biogeochemistry, such as studies of carbon cycling and ocean acidification, on regional to global scales. These best practice standards are not mandatory. Agencies, institutes, universities, or research vessels can continue using different data standards if it is important for them to maintain historical consistency. However, it is hoped that they will be adopted as widely as possible to facilitate consistency and to achieve the goals stated above.

Anti-Roll Characteristics of Marine Gyrostabilizer Based on Adaptive Control and Hydrodynamic Simulation - Biao Li; Xianku Zhang; Jun Wang; Ning Chen (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The gyrostabilizer produces the anti-roll effect through the precession output moment generated by a high-speed rotating flywheel. As a floating-base multi-body system composed of ship and gyrostabilizer, the recent research that has only focused on the control strategies or multi-body dynamics is obviously not comprehensive. This study presents an adaptive controller based on the variable gain control strategy for a marine gyrostabilizer installed on a port salvage tug. The variable gain control strategy controlled the flywheel precession output moment of the gyrostabilizer and thereby of the precession process, to reduce the ship roll motion effectively. Furthermore, a full-system hydrodynamic model of a gyrostabilizer-ship-wave based on three-dimensional numerical wave flume technology was innovatively established to evaluate its anti-roll performance under irregular wave conditions. The simulation results show that, for the sea state considered, the increase of spin rate of gyrostabilizer flywheel improved the anti-roll effect significantly. The average anti-roll rate of the gyrostabilizer decreased with the increase of significant wave height, wave period and wave encounter angle.

Mitogenomes provide new insights into the evolutionary history of Prodiamesinae (Diptera: Chironomidae) - Xiao‐Long Lin; Yan‐Min Zhao; Li‐Ping Yan; Wen‐Bin Liu; Wen‐Jun Bu; Xin‐Hua Wang; Chen‐Guang Zheng (Zoologica Scripta, 2022)
Evolutionary analysis of Prodiamesinae has long been impeded by lack of information, and its phylogenetic relationship with Orthocladiinae remains questionable. Here, ten complete mitochondrial genomes (mitogenomes) of Orthocladiinae sensu lato were newly sequenced, including three Prodiamesinae species and seven Orthocladiinae species. Coupled with published mitogenomes, a total of 12 mitogenomes of Orthocladiinae sensu lato were selected for a comparative mitogenomic analysis and phylogenetic reconstruction. Mitogenomes of Orthocladiinae sensu lato are conserved in structure, and all genes arrange the same gene order as the ancestral insect mitogenome. Nucleotide composition is highly biased, and the control region displayed the highest A + T content. All protein‐coding genes are under purifying selection, and the ATP8 evolves at the fastest rate. In addition, the mitogenomes of Orthocladiinae sensu lato are highly conserved, and they are practically useful for phylogenetic inference, suggesting a re‐classification of Orthocladiinae by sinking Prodiamesinae as a subgroup of Orthocladiinae.

Fish Composition and Diversity of Four Coral Reefs in the South China Sea Based on Hand-Line Catch - Yuanjie Li; Zuozhi Chen; Jun Zhang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
To improve the overall understanding of the fish diversity and spatial patterns of major coral reefs in the South China Sea, fish assemblage composition, dominant species, biodiversity indices, and multivariate analysis of community structure were reported for four major coral reefs based on hand-line survey data in May and September 2018. A total of five orders, 21 families, 45 genera and 121 species of fish were recorded with Perciformes (78.5%) being the most diverse. The highest number (5) of dominant species was found near Chenhang Island while the lowest (2) number was detected at Zhubi Reef. The highest abundance index (7.21) occurred at Zhubi Reef, while the Shannon–Wiener diversity (4.80), Pielou’s evenness (0.81), and Simpson’s dominance (0.95) indexes were all highest at Qiliangyu Island. Based on cluster analysis and non-metric multi-dimensional scaling (NMDS), fish communities varied more spatially than seasonally. Our results led us to hypothesize that the habitat complexity and level of anthropogenic disturbance were the main factors affecting the composition of reef-dwelling fish on each coral reef. Topography was likely responsible for most variation in the spatial pattern of fish diversity.

The Effects of Limosilactobacillus reuteri LR-99 Supplementation on Body Mass Index, Social Communication, Fine Motor Function, and Gut Microbiome Composition in Individuals with Prader–Willi Syndrome: a Randomized Double-Blinded Placebo-Controlled Trial - Xue-Jun Kong; Kevin Liu; Patrick Zhuang; Ruiyi Tian; Siyu Liu; Cullen Clairmont; Xiaojing Lin; Hannah Sherman; Junli Zhu; Yelan Wang; Michelle Fong; Alice Li; et al. (Probiotics and Antimicrobial Proteins, 2021)
Prader–Willi syndrome (PWS) is a rare genetic disorder associated with developmental delay, obesity, and neuropsychiatric comorbidities. Limosilactobacillus reuteri ( Lactobacillus reuteri , Lact. reuteri ) has demonstrated anti-obesity and anti-inflammatory effects in previous studies. In the present study, we aim to evaluate the effects of Lact. reuteri supplementation on body mass index (BMI), social behaviors, and gut microbiota in individuals with PWS. We conducted a 12-week, randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled trial in 71 individuals with PWS aged 6 to 264 months (64.4 ± 51.0 months). Participants were randomly assigned to either receive daily Lact. reuteri LR-99 probiotic (6 × 10 10 colony forming units) or a placebo sachet. Groupwise differences were assessed for BMI, ASQ-3, and GARS-3 at baseline, 6 weeks, and 12 weeks into treatment. Gut microbiome data was analyzed with the QIIME2 software package, and predictive functional profiling was conducted with PICRUSt-2. We found a significant reduction in BMI for the probiotic group at both 6 weeks and 12 weeks relative to the baseline ( P < 0.05). Furthermore, we observed a significant improvement in social communication and interaction, fine motor function, and total ASQ-3 score in the probiotics group compared to the placebo group ( P < 0.05). Altered gut microbiota was observed in the probiotic group to favor weight loss and improve gut health. The findings suggest a novel therapeutic potential for Lact. reuteri LR-99 probiotic to modulate BMI, social behaviors, and gut microbiota in Prader–Willi syndrome patients, although further investigation is warranted.

Spatio‐temporal variation of macroinvertebrate metacommunity organization in a monsoon‐climate region - Zhengfei Li; Jani Heino; Zhuoyan Song; Xiaoming Jiang; Jun Wang; Zhenyuan Liu; Xiao Chen; Xingliang Meng; Junqian Zhang; Zhicai Xie (Journal of Biogeography, 2021)
Aim Disentangling the drivers of community assembly and species diversity in space and time is critical to elucidating metacommunity theory. However, our understanding of how metacommunity structuring will change over time remains insufficient, especially in rivers in the monsoon climate zone. We examined whether (1) the idealized metacommunity structure is different among seasons and (2) the relative importance of underlying mechanisms on community assembly varies within and across tributaries as well as among seasons. Location Five tributaries in the Hanjiang River Basin. Taxon Macroinvertebrates. Methods Benthic macroinvertebrates and environmental data were collected seasonally (i.e. spring, summer, autumn and winter) from the same 70 sampling sites. The elements of metacommunity structure (EMS) framework was employed to identify which idealized topology best characterizes the actual metacommunity. Redundancy analysis and variance partitioning procedures were applied to determine key environmental and spatial factors and to examine their relative contributions to variation in community structure in different seasons. Results The best‐fit metacommunity typologies were consistent over time, with metacommunity structure in each season displaying Clementsian gradients, characterized by high degrees of coherence and turnover, and positive boundary clumping. Environmental control prevailed over spatial processes in structuring macroinvertebrate communities, but their relative influence on community variation was context‐dependent. Particularly, environmental filtering was the predominant mechanism at the intermediate spatial scale. However, spatial processes had gradually stronger effects at smaller and larger extents. Main conclusions Both EMS analysis and the variance partitioning approach suggested environmental filtering was the principal structuring processes for macroinvertebrate assemblages throughout the year, although mass effects and dispersal limitation also played significant roles at smaller and larger spatial extents respectively. Considering that the most influential environmental factors shaping macroinvertebrate communities were variable across seasons, we argue that spatio‐temporal investigations would provide more information on community assembly than single snapshot studies.

Mobilization of soil phosphate after 8 years of warming is linked to plant phosphorus‐acquisition strategies in an alpine meadow on the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau - Jun Zhou; Xiao‐Long Li; Fei Peng; Chengyang Li; Chimin Lai; Quangang You; Xian Xue; Yanhong Wu; Hongyang Sun; Yang Chen; Hongtao Zhong; Hans Lambers (Global Change Biology, 2021)
Phosphorus (P) is essential for productivity of alpine grassland ecosystems, which are sensitive to global warming. We tested the hypotheses that (1) mobilized ‘calcium‐bound inorganic P’ (Ca‐P i ) is a major source of plant‐available P in alpine meadows with alkaline soils after long‐term warming, (2) mobilization of Ca‐P i is linked to effective plant carboxylate‐releasing P‐acquisition strategies under warming, and (3) the mobilization is also related to plant nitrogen (N)‐acquisition. We conducted an 8‐year warming experiment in an alpine meadow (4635 m above sea level) on the Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau. A significant increase in P concentration in both aboveground and belowground biomass indicates an increased mobilization and assimilation of P by plants under warming. We observed a significant decrease in Ca‐P i , no change in moderately‐labile organic P, and an increase in highly resistant organic P after warming. There was no increase in phosphatase activities. Our results indicate that Ca‐P i , rather than organic P was the major source of plant‐available P for alpine meadows under warming. Higher leaf manganese concentrations of sedges and forbs after warming indicate that carboxylates released by these plants are a key mechanism of Ca‐P i mobilization. The insignificant increase in Rhizobiales after warming and the very small cover of legumes show a minor role of N‐acquisition strategies in solubilizing phosphate. The insignificant change in relative abundance of mycorrhizal fungi and bacteria related to P cycling after warming shows a small contribution of microorganisms to Ca‐P i mobilization. The significant increase in leaf N and P concentrations and N:P ratio of grasses and no change in sedge leaf N:P ratio reflect distinct responses of plant nutrient status to warming due to differences in P‐acquisition strategies. We highlight the important effects of belowground P‐acquisition strategies, especially plant carboxylate‐releasing P‐acquisition strategies on responses of plants to global changes in alpine meadows.

Distinct Bottom-Water Bacterial Communities at Methane Seeps With Various Seepage Intensities in Haima, South China Sea - Xiaopeng Li; Zehan Dai; Pengfei Di; Junxi Feng; Jun Tao; Duofu Chen; Niu Li; Yazi Li (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Methane seeps are chemosynthetic ecosystems in the deep-sea environment. Microbial community structures have been extensively studied in the seepage-affected sediments and investigation in the water column above the seeping sites is still lacking. In this study, prokaryotic communities in the bottom water about 50 cm from the seabed at methane seeps with various seepage intensities in Haima, South China Sea were comparatively studied by using 16S ribosomal RNA gene sequencing. These sites were assigned based on their distinct methane content levels and seafloor landscapes as the non-seepage (NS) site, low-intensity seepage (LIS) site, and high-intensity seepage (HIS) site. The abundances of the dominant phyla Proteobacteria, Bacteroidetes, and Actinobacteria differed significantly between NS and the two seepage sites ( p < 0.05). Alpha diversity differed among the three sites with the HIS site showing the lowest community diversity. Principal component analysis revealed highly divergent bacterial community structures at three sites. Many environmental variables including temperature, alkalinity, pH, methane, dissolved organic carbon (DOC), and inorganic nutrients were measured. Redundancy analysis indicated that methane content is the key environmental factor driving bacterial community variation ( p = 0.001). Linear discriminant analysis effect size analysis identified various differentially enriched genera at the LIS and HIS sites. Phylogenetic analysis revealed close phylogenetic relationship among the operational taxonomic units of these genera with known oil-degrading species, indicating oil seepage may occur at the Haima cold seeps. Co-occurrence networks indicated that the strength of microbial interactions was weakest at the HIS site. This study represents a comprehensive comparison of microbial profiles in the water column of cold seeps in the SCS, revealing that the seepage intensity has a strong impact on bacterial community dynamics.

A new framework for the identification of flash drought: Multivariable and probabilistic statistic perspectives - Chen Hu; Jun Xia; Dunxian She; Lingcheng Li; Zhihong Song; Si Hong (International Journal of Climatology, 2021)
Flash drought is distinguished with seasonal drought by its characteristics of sudden onset and rapid intensification, and has attracted increasing concern due to the severe negative impacts on socioeconomic development and ecosystems. To accurate identify the onset time and propagation of flash drought is still a big challenge, as it is influenced by many factors (e.g., deficit in precipitation, increase in evapotranspiration and temperature, shortage in soil moisture, and etc.). This study aims to develop a probabilistic and multivariable flash drought identification method (PMFDI) from the perspective of considering the interaction effects from different driving factors on flash drought occurrence and propagation with a multivariable statistical tool. The PMFDI uses the weekly standardized precipitation evapotranspiration index and the standardized soil moisture index to describe the abnormally changes in multiple hydrometeorological variables over a short duration. The linearly multivariable index (LMI) is employed to describe the correlation relationship between multiple hydrometeorological variables and to identify flash droughts from the aspects of sudden onset and rapid intensification. We select the Loess Plateau (LP) in China to verify the efficiency of the developed PMFDI with the comparison to the other two recently proposed flash drought identification methods. The results indicate that PMFDI can identify high‐ and low‐ frequency regions similar to those identified by the other two methods and can generally recognize actual flash droughts. In addition, the PMFDI can capture the comprehensive impact of multiple hydrometeorological variables as well as their interaction on flash drought occurrence, which provides a useful perspective to understand the propagation processes of the actual flash droughts in the LP.

Isolation of a novel adomavirus from cultured American eels, Anguilla rostrata , with haemorrhagic gill necrosis disease - Jin‐Xian Yang; Xi Chen; Ying‐Ying Li; Tie‐Ying Song; Jun‐Qing Ge (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2021)
Recently, the culture of American eels (Anguilla rostrate) in China has been impacted by emergence of a disease with signs of haemorrhagic gill necrosis. The gills of diseased eels are covered with petecchia and they bleed when the operculum is pressed. In this study, a novel American eel adomavirus (AEAdoV) was isolated from the diseased eels using the eel ovary cell line (EO). The virus proliferated in the EO cells with a maximum TCID 50 /ml of 10 6.29 ± 0.23 at 6 days post‐infection. The virions were non‐enveloped with a diameter of 75–85 nm and shown to be a DNA virus upon 5‐iodo‐2’‐deoxyuridine (IDU) treatment. PCR assays showed that AEAdoV encodes a superfamily 3 helicases (S3H) replicase and shared high similarities with Anguilla marmorata adomavirus (MEAdoV). Although no clinical signs or mortality was observed among the eels injected with AEAdoV, the virus was reisolated from livers, kidneys and gills of injected eels at 35 days post‐injection. Our results suggested that AEAdoV exhibited a latent infection in A. rostrata . The pathogenicity of the AEAdoV needs to be confirmed further.

Acidification can present a stress on organisms and habitats in estuaries in addition to hypoxia. Although oxygen and pH decreases are generally coupled due to aerobic respiration, pH dynamics may be more complex given the multiple modes of buffering in the carbonate system. We studied the seasonal cycle of dissolved oxygen (DO), pH, dissolved inorganic carbon, total alkalinity, and calcium ion (Ca 2+ ) along the main channel of Chesapeake Bay from May to October in 2016. Contrary to the expected co‐occurrence of seasonal DO and pH declines in subsurface water, we found that the pH decline ended in June while the DO decline continued until August in mid‐Chesapeake Bay. We discovered that aerobic respiration was strong from May to August, but carbonate dissolution was minor in May and June and became substantial in August, which buffered further pH declines and caused the seasonal DO and pH minima mismatch. The rate of calcium carbonate (CaCO 3 ) dissolution was not primarily controlled by the saturation state in bottom water, but was instead likely controlled by the supply of CaCO 3 particles. The seasonal variability of Ca 2+ addition in the mid‐bay was connected to Ca 2+ removal in the upper bay, and the timing of high carbonate dissolution coincided with peak seasonal biomass of upper Bay submerged aquatic vegetation. This study suggests a mechanism for a novel decoupling of DO and pH in estuarine waters associated with CaCO 3 , but future studies are needed to fully investigate the seasonality of physical transport and cycling of CaCO 3 .

Local climate adaptation and gene flow in the native range of two co‐occurring fruit moths with contrasting invasiveness - Li‐Jun Cao; Bing‐Yan Li; Jin‐Cui Chen; Jia‐Ying Zhu; Ary A. Hoffmann; Shu‐Jun Wei (Molecular Ecology, 2021)
Invasive species pose increasing threats to global biodiversity and ecosystems. While previous studies have characterized successful invaders based on ecological traits, characteristics related to evolutionary processes have rarely been investigated. Here we compared gene flow and local adaptation using demographic analyses and outlier tests in two co‐occurring moth pests across their common native range of China, one of which (the peach fruit moth, Carposina sasakii ) has maintained its native distribution, while the other (the oriental fruit moth, Grapholita molesta ) has expanded its range globally during the past century. We found that both species showed a pattern of genetic differentiation and an evolutionary history consistent with a common southwestern origin and northward expansion in their native range. However, for the noninvasive species, genetic differentiation was closely aligned with the environment, and there was a relatively low level of gene flow, whereas in the invasive species, genetic differentiation was associated with geography. Genome scans indicated stronger patterns of climate‐associated loci in the noninvasive species. While strong local adaptation and reduced gene flow across its native range may have decreased the invasiveness of C . sasakii , this requires further validation with additional comparisons of invasive and noninvasive species across their native range.

Long-Term Temporal and Spatial Distribution of Coliform Bacteria in Jiaozhou Bay Associated With Human Activities and Environmental Governance - Kaixuan Cui; Yi Dong; Xiaoxia Sun; Li Zhao; Haijian Du; Jia Liu; Chaofeng Wang; Chen Liang; Yicong Zhao; Si Chen; Jun Xuan; Suheng Li; et al.

Coliform bacteria (CB) can be used as an indicator of seawater quality. Long-term monitoring of seawater quality based on CB abundance is lacking in Jiaozhou Bay. In this study, CB abundance in surface seawater of 12 different stations in Jiaozhou Bay was investigated by culturing method. The results showed that: (1) the abundance of CB showed a decreasing tendency during the investigation. During 2004–2007, 2008–2013, and 2014–2017, the average CB abundance decreased significantly, forming a “three stages phenomenon”; (2) the average CB abundance in the first half of the year was lower than that in the second half; (3) the CB abundance in Jiaozhou Bay was spatially heterogeneous. The maximum average CB abundance was observed in the estuary area, and followed by the bay mouth area, the outer bay area, and the inner bay area. The highest abundance may be associated with sewage discharge related to human activities; (4) the abundance of CB was most positively correlated with the concentration of ammonium salt and nitrate, while most negatively correlated with salinity; (5) the years 2007 (2008) and 2013 (2014) were time points of the “three stages phenomenon.” These time points coincide with environmental governance actions, indicating that the actions have played a prominent role in improving seawater quality. Long-term survey of CB can not only serve as an indicator of seawater quality, but also provide a basis for the development of environmental governance strategies and pollution control.

Heavy Metal Adsorption and Release on Polystyrene Particles at Various Salinities - Beta Susanto Barus; Kai Chen; Minggang Cai; Rongmao Li; Huorong Chen; Cong Li; Jun Wang; Sha-Yen Cheng (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Microplastics (MPs) and heavy metals are two major types of pollutants that interact with each other, but they are poorly understood. Polystyrene (PS) is one type of MPs that is often detected in aquatic environments. In this study, we examined the adsorption capacity and release rate of heavy metals with respect to different particle sizes of PS, heavy metals, initial heavy metal concentrations, and salinities. Virgin (new) PS with diameters of 20, 50, 130, and 250 μm was used in this study, and four heavy metals (lead, cadmium, copper, and zinc) were used. The results showed that larger PS particle sizes adsorbed more heavy metals even though it took longer to achieve equilibrium adsorption. An increase in heavy metal concentration caused the adsorption capacity (μg g –1 ) of PS particles to also increase, but the adsorption rate (%) decreased. Increased salinity of the heavy metal solution resulted in a slower adsorption time and a lower adsorption capacity and release rate from the surface of PS particles. Different heavy metals also had different adsorption capacities. Pb was consistently more highly adsorbed by MPs, followed by Cu, Zn, and Cd. Larger PS sizes released heavy metals faster than smaller PS sizes, and the amounts of heavy metals released were higher. The heavy metal with the highest release rate was Cd, followed by Pb, Cu, and Zn. Finally, our findings highlight the interactions between PS and heavy metals and strongly support that PS particles can act as vectors for heavy metals in aquatic systems.

Major depressive disorder (MDD), also referred to as depression, is one of the most common psychiatric disorders with a high economic burden. The etiology of depression is still not clear, but it is generally believed that MDD is a multifactorial disease caused by the interaction of social, psychological, and biological aspects. Therefore, there is no exact pathological theory that can independently explain its pathogenesis, involving genetics, neurobiology, and neuroimaging. At present, there are many treatment measures for patients with depression, including drug therapy, psychotherapy, and neuromodulation technology. In recent years, great progress has been made in the development of new antidepressants, some of which have been applied in the clinic. This article mainly reviews the research progress, pathogenesis, and treatment of MDD.

Nitrogen immobilization usually leads to nitrogen retention in soil and, thus, influences soil nitrogen supply for plant growth. Understanding soil nitrogen immobilization is important for predicting soil nitrogen cycling under anthropogenic activities and climate changes. However, the global patterns and drivers of soil nitrogen immobilization remain unclear. We synthesized 1350 observations of gross soil nitrogen immobilization rate (NIR) from 97 articles to identify patterns and drivers of NIR. The global mean NIR was 8.77 ± 1.01 mg N kg −1 soil day −1 . It was 5.55 ± 0.41 mg N kg −1 soil day −1 in croplands, 15.74 ± 3.02 mg N kg −1 soil day −1 in wetlands, and 15.26 ± 2.98 mg N kg −1 soil day −1 in forests. The NIR increased with mean annual temperature, precipitation, soil moisture, soil organic carbon, total nitrogen, dissolved organic nitrogen, ammonium, nitrate, phosphorus, and microbial biomass carbon. But it decreased with soil pH. The results of structural equation models showed that soil microbial biomass carbon was a pivotal driver of NIR, because temperature, total soil nitrogen, and soil pH mostly indirectly influenced NIR via changing soil microbial biomass. Moreover, microbial biomass carbon accounted for most of the variations in NIR among all direct relationships. Furthermore, the efficiency of transforming the immobilized nitrogen to microbial biomass nitrogen was lower in croplands than in natural ecosystems (i.e., forests, grasslands, and wetlands). These findings suggested that soil nitrogen retention may decrease under the land use change from forests or wetlands to croplands, but NIR was expected to increase due to increased microbial biomass under global warming. The identified patterns and drivers of soil nitrogen immobilization in this study are crucial to project the changes in soil nitrogen retention.

TLR8 in the Trigeminal Ganglion Contributes to the Maintenance of Trigeminal Neuropathic Pain in Mice - Lin-Xia Zhao; Ming Jiang; Xue-Qiang Bai; De-Li Cao; Xiao-Bo Wu; Jing Zhang; Jian-Shuang Guo; Tong-Tong Chen; Juan Wang; Hao Wu; Yong-Jing Gao; Zhi-Jun Zhang (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2021)
Trigeminal neuropathic pain (TNP) is a significant health problem but the involved mechanism has not been completely elucidated. Toll-like receptors (TLRs) have recently been demonstrated to be expressed in the dorsal root ganglion and involved in chronic pain. Here, we show that TLR8 was persistently increased in the trigeminal ganglion (TG) neurons in model of TNP induced by partial infraorbital nerve ligation (pIONL). In addition, deletion or knockdown of Tlr8 in the TG attenuated pIONL-induced mechanical allodynia, reduced the activation of ERK and p38-MAPK, and decreased the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the TG. Furthermore, intra-TG injection of the TLR8 agonist VTX-2337 induced pain hypersensitivity. VTX-2337 also increased the intracellular Ca 2+ concentration, induced the activation of ERK and p38, and increased the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines in the TG. These data indicate that TLR8 contributes to the maintenance of TNP through increasing MAPK-mediated neuroinflammation. Targeting TLR8 signaling may be effective for the treatment of TNP.

Microplastics and their potential effects on the aquaculture systems: a critical review - Aiguo Zhou; Yue Zhang; Shaolin Xie; Yuliang Chen; Xiang Li; Jun Wang; Jixing Zou (Reviews in Aquaculture, 2021)
According to the statistics, 8.3 billion metric tonnes of plastics have been produced since 1950s, which is far more than other synthetic materials and the annual production which are about 500 million tonnes per year at present. The production of plastics makes microplastics pollution extremely widespread distribution, which will have a lasting impact on the global environment, especially on the aquaculture systems. And the distribution of the microplastics is extremely imbalanced around the global waters. In the present review, we have summarized the development of aquaculture in the World and China based on the existing data sources. And the total aquaculture production of the World will over 90 million tonnes, which will exceed the capture production in 2020. Aquaculture products will become one of the most important sources of high‐quality protein. However, we found that many kinds of microplastics are detected and enriched in both farmed and captured species. Both endogenous and exogenous factors like the use of fishing plastic products, factory farming facility and equipment, natural and synthetic feed, animal health products, aquaculture fortifier and aquatic food additives make accumulation of microplastics easier. In addition, the safety of aquaculture products is closely related to human health because the residues of microplastics in fish leading to various potential hazards. In summary, this paper reviewed the relationship between microplastics and aquaculture, aimed at calling for the rational and restricted use of plastic products in the aquaculture ecosystems.

Design of the Blade under Low Flow Velocity for Horizontal Axis Tidal Current Turbine - Jun-Hua Chen; Xian-Cheng Wang; Hao Li; Chu-Hua Jiang; Ling-Jie Bao (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020)
The blade is the key component for energy capture in horizontal axis tidal current turbine, and the blade’s design is directly related to the efficiency of the power generation device. The seawater flow velocity is a crucial parameter for blade design. Since the seawater velocity changes constantly, it is extremely important to determine the design velocity of the blade. This article proposes a calculation method for the design velocity of the blade so that the designed blade can achieve better energy collection efficiency under a variable flow velocity. This study performed the following investigations: (1) The author tested and analyzed the seawater velocity variation at the experimental site, determining the designed flow velocity via calculations; (2) The author combined the blade element momentum and Wilson’s optimization design method using the MATLAB software to calculate the blade shape parameters and predict the performance under a number of different flow velocity forecasts; (3) When testing the device under sea conditions, the experimental results showed that the performance capture devices and digital projections are basically the same, which verifies the validity and effectiveness of the design method.

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

Seasonal and spatial variability in surface p CO 2 and air–water CO 2 flux in the Chesapeake Bay - Baoshan Chen; Wei‐Jun Cai; Jean R. Brodeur; Najid Hussain; Jeremy M. Testa; Wenfei Ni; Qian Li (Limnology and Oceanography, 2020)
Interactions between riverine inputs, internal cycling, and oceanic exchange result in dynamic variations in the partial pressure of carbon dioxide ( p CO 2 ) in large estuaries. Here, we report the first bay‐wide, annual‐scale observations of surface p CO 2 and air–water CO 2 flux along the main stem of the Chesapeake Bay, revealing large annual variations in p CO 2 (43–3408 μ atm) and a spatial‐dependence of p CO 2 on internal and external drivers. The low salinity upper bay was a net source of CO 2 to the atmosphere (31.2 mmol m −2 d −1 ) supported by inputs of CO 2 ‐rich Susquehanna River water and the respiration of allochthonous organic matter, but part of this region was also characterized by low p CO 2 during spring and fall phytoplankton blooms. p CO 2 decreased downstream due to CO 2 ventilation supported by long water residence times, stratification, mixing with low p CO 2 water masses, and carbon removal by biological uptake. The mesohaline middle bay was a net CO 2 sink (−5.8 mmol m −2 d −1 ) and the polyhaline lower bay was nearly in equilibrium with the atmosphere (1.0 mmol m −2 d −1 ). Although the main stem of the bay was a weak CO 2 source (3.7 ± 3.3 × 10 9 mol C) during the dry hydrologic (calendar) year 2016, our observations showed higher river discharge could decrease CO 2 efflux. In contrast to many other estuaries worldwide that are strong sources of CO 2 to the atmosphere, the Chesapeake Bay and potentially other large estuaries are very weak CO 2 sources in dry years, and could even turn into a CO 2 sink in wet years.

Powdery mildew (PM) is one of the most important fungal diseases in Cucurbita moschata (pumpkin) cultivation. This experiment was conducted to shed light on the physiological mechanisms of PM resistance in pumpkin cultivars. PM pathogen was inoculated on pumpkin seedlings, PM-susceptible genotype (JJJD) and PM-resistant genotype (inbred line 112–2) to study the PM-fungal growth, plant photosynthetic and biochemical parameters with different intervals of time. The disease index and pathogen growth observed for the PM-infected 112–2 seedlings were milder than those observed for the JJJD seedlings. The net photosynthetic rate (Pn), stomatal conductance (gs) and transpiration rate (Tr) were reduced for both the PM-infected genotypes, while the internal CO 2 concentration (Ci) increased in comparison with the non-infected controls. PM pathogen inoculation impaired the photosynthetic performance in seedlings of both genotypes and this was largely associated with stomatal closure. In comparison with the non-infected controls, the superoxide dismutase (SOD) and β-1,3-glucanase activities were reduced for both the PM-infected genotypes, while the peroxidase (POD) and phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) activities were increased. The catalase (CAT) activity was reduced in the 112–2 genotype and increased in the JJJD genotype after PM pathogen inoculation. Together, our data show that PM resistance in pumpkin seedlings is associated with the maintenance of photosynthetic performance and the regulation of defense-related enzyme activities .
