Dissection of the practical soybean breeding pipeline by developing ZDX1, a high-throughput functional array - Rujian Sun; Bincheng Sun; Yu Tian; Shanshan Su; Yong Zhang; Wanhai Zhang; Jingshun Wang; Ping Yu; Bingfu Guo; Huihui Li; Yanfei Li; Huawei Gao; et al. (Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2022)
Key message We developed the ZDX1 high-throughput functional soybean array for high accuracy evaluation and selection of both parents and progeny, which can greatly accelerate soybean breeding. Abstract Microarray technology facilitates rapid, accurate, and economical genotyping. Here, using resequencing data from 2214 representative soybean accessions, we developed the high-throughput functional array ZDX1, containing 158,959 SNPs, covering 90.92% of soybean genes and sites related to important traits. By application of the array, a total of 817 accessions were genotyped, including three subpopulations of candidate parental lines, parental lines and their progeny from practical breeding. The fixed SNPs were identified in progeny, indicating artificial selection during the breeding process. By identifying functional sites of target traits, novel soybean cyst nematode-resistant progeny and maturity-related novel sources were identified by allele combinations, demonstrating that functional sites provide an efficient method for the rapid screening of desirable traits or gene sources. Notably, we found that the breeding index (BI) was a good indicator for progeny selection. Superior progeny were derived from the combination of distantly related parents, with at least one parent having a higher BI. Furthermore, new combinations based on good performance were proposed for further breeding after excluding redundant and closely related parents. Genomic best linear unbiased prediction (GBLUP) analysis was the best analysis method and achieved the highest accuracy in predicting four traits when comparing SNPs in genic regions rather than whole genomic or intergenic SNPs. The prediction accuracy was improved by 32.1% by using progeny to expand the training population. Collectively, a versatile assay demonstrated that the functional ZDX1 array provided efficient information for the design and optimization of a breeding pipeline for accelerated soybean breeding.

Association between congenital heart defects and maternal manganese and iron concentrations: a case–control study in China - Meixian Wang; Yan Tian; Ping Yu; Nana Li; Ying Deng; Lu Li; Hong Kang; Dapeng Chen; Hui Wang; Zhen Liu; Juan Liang (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2022)
To investigate the correlation between maternal manganese and iron concentrations and the risk of CHD among their infant. A multi-center hospital-based case control study was conducted in China. There were 322 cases and 333 controls have been selected from pregnant women who received prenatal examinations. Correlations between CHDs and maternal manganese and iron concentrations were estimated by conditional logistic regression. Moreover, the interaction between manganese and iron on CHDs was analyzed. Compared with the controls, mothers whose hair manganese concentration was 3.01 μg/g or more were more likely to have a child with CHD than those with a lower concentration. The adjusted OR was 2.68 (95%CI = 1.44–4.99). The results suggested that mothers whose iron content was 52.95 μg/g or more had a significantly higher risk of having a child with CHD ( aOR = 2.87, 95%CI = 1.54–5.37). No interaction between maternal manganese and iron concentrations was observed in the multiplicative or additive model. The concurrently existing high concentration of manganese and iron may bring higher risk of CHD ( OR = 7.02). Women with excessive manganese concentrations have a significantly increased risk of having offspring with CHDs. The high maternal iron status also correlates with CHDs. The concurrently existing high concentration of manganese and iron may bring higher risk of CHD.

The Predictability of Ocean Environments that Contributed to the 2020/21 Extreme Cold Events in China: 2020/21 La Niña and 2020 Arctic Sea Ice Loss - Fei Zheng; Ji-Ping Liu; Xiang-Hui Fang; Mi-Rong Song; Chao-Yuan Yang; Yuan Yuan; Ke-Xin Li; Ji Wang; Jiang Zhu (Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2022)
Several consecutive extreme cold events impacted China during the first half of winter 2020/21, breaking the low-temperature records in many cities. How to make accurate climate predictions of extreme cold events is still an urgent issue. The synergistic effect of the warm Arctic and cold tropical Pacific has been demonstrated to intensify the intrusions of cold air from polar regions into middle-high latitudes, further influencing the cold conditions in China. However, climate models failed to predict these two ocean environments at expected lead times. Most seasonal climate forecasts only predicted the 2020/21 La Niña after the signal had already become apparent and significantly underestimated the observed Arctic sea ice loss in autumn 2020 with a 1–2 month advancement. In this work, the corresponding physical factors that may help improve the accuracy of seasonal climate predictions are further explored. For the 2020/21 La Niña prediction, through sensitivity experiments involving different atmospheric–oceanic initial conditions, the predominant southeasterly wind anomalies over the equatorial Pacific in spring of 2020 are diagnosed to play an irreplaceable role in triggering this cold event. A reasonable inclusion of atmospheric surface winds into the initialization will help the model predict La Niña development from the early spring of 2020. For predicting the Arctic sea ice loss in autumn 2020, an anomalously cyclonic circulation from the central Arctic Ocean predicted by the model, which swept abnormally hot air over Siberia into the Arctic Ocean, is recognized as an important contributor to successfully predicting the minimum Arctic sea ice extent.

Microplastic Contamination on the Beaches of South China - Bingwen Chai; Yanping Li; Li Wang; Xiao-Tan Zhang; Yi-Ping Wan; Fengyuan Chen; Jie Ma; Wenlu Lan; Ke Pan (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Microplastics (MPs) have emerged as a pollutant of significant global concern. The sandy beach is a fragile environment that deserves our special attention with regard to MP contamination, as this area is a hotspot that accumulates large quantities of plastic waste. Notably, our current understanding of the MP distribution on beaches and the scale of contamination is far from sufficient. Hence, this study investigated the occurrence and characteristics of MPs on 14 beaches along the coast of South China. The MPs were ubiquitously distributed in the sand, most were small, less than 1 mm. A total of 18 types of polymers were identified in the sand, suggesting that diverse types of MPs are present on the beaches. Polyethylene, polypropylene, and polystyrene were the dominant types of MPs in most of our sampling sites. The MP abundance was higher in the upper layers (0–20 cm) of the beach than in the deeper layers (20–40 cm) of the sampling site when characterized by depth (Yangjiang beach). Our study demonstrates the extent and severity of MP pollution on the beaches of South China and provides implications for future remediation measures. More effort is needed to clarify the vertical distribution of MPs on beaches, especially for those MPs less than 1 μm.

MoOpy2 is essential for fungal development, pathogenicity, and autophagy in Magnaporthe oryzae - Ying‐Ying Cai; Jing‐Yi Wang; Xi‐Yu Wu; Shuang Liang; Xue‐Ming Zhu; Lin Li; Jian‐Ping Lu; Xiao‐Hong Liu; Fu‐Cheng Lin (Environmental Microbiology, 2022)
Summary The development and pathogenicity of the fungus Magnaporthe oryzae , the causal agent of destructive rice blast disease, require it to perceive external environmental signals. Opy2, an overproduction‐induced pheromone‐resistant protein 2, is a crucial protein for sensing external signals in Saccharomyces cerevisiae . However, the biological functions of the homologue of Opy2 in M. oryzae are unclear. In this study, we identified that MoOPY2 is involved in fungal development, pathogenicity, and autophagy in M. oryzae . Deletion of MoOPY2 resulted in pleiotropic defects in hyphal growth, conidiation, germ tube extension, appressorium formation, appressorium turgor generation, and invasive growth, therefore leading to attenuated pathogenicity. Furthermore, MoOpy2 participates in the Osm1 MAPK pathway and the Mps1 MAPK pathway by interacting with the adaptor protein Mst50. The interaction sites of Mst50 and MoOpy2 colocalized with the autophagic marker protein MoAtg8 in the preautophagosomal structure sites (PAS). Notably, the Δ Moopy2 mutant caused cumulative MoAtg8 lipidation and rapid GFP‐MoAtg8 degradation in response to nitrogen starvation, showing that MoOpy2 is involved in the negative regulation of autophagy activity. Taken together, our study revealed that MoOpy2 of M. oryzae plays an essential role in the orchestration of fungal development, appressorium penetration, autophagy and pathogenesis.

Eutrophication and predation mediate zooplankton diversity and network structure - Yun Li; Rong Wang; Haojie Su; Jianjun Wang; Ping Xie; Feizhou Chen (Limnology and Oceanography, 2022)
Anthropogenic activities such as eutrophication and fishing have prominent effects on freshwater ecosystems. However, the ways in which ecosystem function and biodiversity respond to multiple drivers from eutrophication and top‐down predation remains inconclusive. We studied zooplankton communities in 102 subtropical shallow lakes in the eastern plain of China and further examined the joint effects of nutrient enrichment and predation on biodiversity and ecological networks. We found that alpha diversity was negatively influenced by nutrient conditions (such as total phosphorus and total nitrogen [TN]), whereas beta diversity (β‐diversity) was positively related to nutrients and was also structured by omnivorous fish showing a unimodal pattern. Furthermore, the network skewness of zooplankton increased with nutrient enrichment, especially TN, and was negatively related to omnivorous fish. This skewness is more sensitive than β‐diversity, whereas negative skew is primarily caused by omnivorous fish. Our results demonstrated that top‐down effects were dominant for zooplankton communities and resulted in structural adjustment of zooplankton communities, mainly with an increase in fish predation. A negative skewed network indicates the presence of more generalist species and stronger connections among the zooplankton assemblages, as well as decreased β‐diversity.

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.

The Mechanism of Carbonate Alkalinity Exposure on Juvenile Exopalaemon carinicauda With the Transcriptome and MicroRNA Analysis - Kunpeng Shi; Mingdong Li; Zhen Qin; Jiajia Wang; Ping Liu; Jian Li; Jitao Li (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Saline-alkali water is distributed all over the world and affects the development of fisheries. The ridge tail white prawn Exopalaemon carinicauda is an economically important shrimp in China, which has excellent environmental tolerance. However, due to its complex genetic structure, there have been few studies on its alkalinity-adaptation mechanisms. In order to explore the molecular mechanisms of E. carinicauda in adapting to the alkaline water, mRNA and miRNA transcriptomes from the gills of E. carinicauda were determined. The results showed that after alkalinity stress, the structures of the gill and hepatopancreas were disorganized; however, E. carinicauda could still maintain vital signs. Transcriptome results showed that ATP binding protein and carbonic anhydrase played an important role in alkalinity-adaptation. At the same time, a large number of immune-related genes were up-regulated, which protect E. carinicauda from bacterial infection. MiRNAs also played an important role in alkalinity-adaptation. A total of 24 miRNAs were identified as differentially expressed after alkalinity stress, and up-regulated miRNAs might active the GnRH signaling pathway and accelerate the synthesis and secretion of aldosterone, which might maintain the balance of osmotic pressure in E. carinicauda to adapt to alkaline environment. These results provide a better understanding of the alkalinity-adaptation mechanism of economic aquatic animals and provide theoretical basis for breeding in the future.

(Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing, 2022)
Computerized interpretation of electrocardiogram plays an important role in daily cardiovascular healthcare. However, inaccurate interpretations lead to misdiagnoses and delay proper treatments. In this work, we built a high-quality Chinese 12-lead resting electrocardiogram dataset with 15,357 records, and called for a community effort to improve the performances of CIE through the China ECG AI Contest 2019. This dataset covers most types of ECG interpretations, including the normal type, 8 common abnormal types, and the other type which includes both uncommon abnormal and noise signals. Based on the Contest, we systematically assessed and analyzed a set of top-performing methods, most of which are deep neural networks, with both their commonalities and characteristics. This study establishes the benchmarks for computerized interpretation of 12-lead resting electrocardiogram and provides insights for the development of new methods.

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.

Biogeography of culturable marine bacteria from both poles reveals that ‘everything is not everywhere’ at the genomic level - Qi‐Long Qin; Zhi‐Bin Wang; Qian‐Qian Cha; Sha‐Sha Liu; Xue‐Bing Ren; Hui‐Hui Fu; Mei‐Ling Sun; Dian‐Li Zhao; Andrew McMinn; Yin Chen; Xiu‐Lan Chen; Yu‐Zhong Zhang; et al. (Environmental Microbiology, 2022)
Summary Based on 16S rRNA gene analyses, the same bacterial operational taxonomic units (OTUs) are common to both the Arctic and Antarctic oceans, supporting the concept ‘everything is everywhere’. However, whether the same OTUs from both poles have identical genomes, i.e. whether ‘everything is still everywhere’ at the genomic level has not yet been examined systematically. Here, we isolated, sequenced and compared the genomes of 45 culturable marine bacteria belonging to three genera of Salinibacterium , Psychrobacter and Pseudoalteromonas from both polar oceans. The bacterial strains with identical 16S rRNA genes were common to both poles in every genus, and four identical genomes were detected in the genus Salinibacterium from the Arctic region. However, no identical genomes were observed from opposite poles in this study. Our data, therefore, suggest that ‘everything is not everywhere’ at the genomic level. The divergence time between bacteria is hypothesized to exert a strong impact on the bacterial biogeography at the genomic level. The geographical isolation between poles was observed for recently diverged, highly similar genomes, but not for moderately similar genomes. This study thus improves our understanding of the factors affecting the genomic‐level biogeography of marine microorganisms isolated from distant locations.

The Innate Immune Response to Infection by Polyascus gregaria in the Male Chinese Mitten Crab (Eriocheir sinensis), Revealed by Proteomic Analysis - Yanping Yang; Fengjiao Ma; Juanjuan Dong; Lianxing Li; Ping Ren; Yuning Zhang; Yatao Wu; Yinping Wang; Kai Liu; Fang Zhang (Fishes, 2021)
The Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) is a representative catadromous invertebrate of the Yangtze River and a commercial species widely cultivated in China. Both cultivated and wild crabs suffer from a variety of parasites and pathogens, which can result in catastrophic economic losses in aquaculture revenue. Polyascus gregaria, a parasitic barnacle with a highly derived morphology, is specialized in invading these crabs. This study examines the immunological mechanism in E. sinensis infected with P. gregaria. Tandem mass tags (TMT), a specialized method of mass-spectrometry, was used to analyze the infection by P. gregaria resistance at the protein level. In the hepatopancreas of infected crabs, 598 proteins differentially expressed relating to physiological change, of which, 352 were upregulated and 246 were downregulated. Based on this differential protein expression, 104 GO terms and 13 KEGG pathways were significantly enriched. Differentially expressed proteins, such as ATG, cathepsin, serpin, iron-related protein, Rab family, integrin, and lectin, are associated with the lysosome GO term and the autophagy-animal KEGG pathways, both of which likely relate to the immune response to the parasitic P. gregaria infection.

Effects of Low Temperature on Shrimp and Crab Physiology, Behavior, and Growth: A Review - Xianyun Ren; Qiong Wang; Huixin Shao; Yao Xu; Ping Liu; Jian Li (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
As important aquaculture species worldwide, shrimps and crabs are thermophilic animals with a feeble thermoregulation ability. Changes in environmental factors are the main reason for the decrease in the immunity and disease resistance ability of cultured organisms. Water temperature is one of the most common abiotic stress factors for aquatic ectotherms. It influences nearly all biochemical and physiological processes in crustaceans, resulting in an imbalance in ion and water homeostasis, neuromuscular function loss, cellular dehydration, and altered metabolic pathways. The present review summarizes the current knowledge on the effects of low temperature on the physiological response, and the behavior, development, and growth of shrimp and crab. We suggest a deeper research to understand the physiological processes involved in thermoregulation; this knowledge could be used to reduce the adverse effects in the shrimps and crabs during the culture.

Comparative Transcriptomic and Proteomic Analysis of Exopalaemon carinicauda in Response to Alkalinity Stress - Zhen Qin; Qianqian Ge; Jiajia Wang; Mingdong Li; Ping Liu; Jian Li; Jitao Li (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Saline-alkaline waters are stressful environments where most aquatic animals can’t survive normally, and alkalinity is one of the key limited environmental factors. Due to strong adaptability to environment, the ridgetail white prawn Exopalaemon carinicauda is a potential good species suitable for large-scale culture in saline-alkaline waters. Exploring its alkaline adaptability mechanism will help to guide more marine crustaceans to saline-alkaline culture. In this study, an integrative analysis of the gill-specific transcriptome and proteome at 0, 12, and 36 h after alkalinity stress was performed to identify important regulators and pathways involved in alkalinity adaption of E. carinicauda . A total of 3,157 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 443 differentially expressed proteins (DEPs) were identified at 12 and 36 h compared with 0 h. Base on the transcriptome analysis, the Gene Ontology (GO) enriched terms were mainly related to ion transport, including “calcium-transporting ATPase activity,” “ATPase coupled ion transmembrane transporter activity,” “divalent inorganic cation transmembrane transporter activity,” etc., and the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways mainly refer to the processes of endocrine system at both 12, and 36 h. Based on the proteomic analysis, KEGG pathways related to lipolysis and amino acids metabolism were significantly enriched at 12 h, and carbohydrate metabolism and immune response were significantly enriched at 36 h. There were significantly up-regulated expressions of ion transport related genes including aquaporin, carbonic anhydrase, ammonium transporter Rh type A-like, Na + /H + -exchanger, etc., as well as ion transport proteins including V-type proton ATPase 116 kDa subunit a-like isoform X1, sodium-potassium ATPase beta, vesicle associated membrane protein, etc. after alkalinity exposure, which indicating their important roles in response to alkalinity stress. The results of integrated analysis between proteome and transcriptome showed that up-regulated DEG/DEP (aldehyde dehydrogenase) was significantly enriched at 12 h and the up-regulated DEG/DEP (peptidylglycine alpha) was significantly enriched at 36 h, suggesting the two molecules may be critical in response to alkalinity change. This study reveals the first time-course, gill-specific, combined transcriptomic and proteomic profiling associated with alkalinity adaption of E. carinicauda and provides new insights into the mechanisms underlying the molecular response to alkalinity stress in shrimp.

A Modified Approach of Extracting Landfast Ice Edge Based on Sentinel-1A InSAR Coherence Image in the Gulf of Bothnia - Zhiyong Wang; Zihao Wang; Hao Li; Ping Ni; Jian Liu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
Landfast ice is an integral component of the coastal ecosystem. Extracting the edge and mapping the extent of landfast ice are one of the main methods for studying ice changes. In this work, a standardized process for extracting landfast ice edge in the Baltic Sea using the InSAR coherence image is established with Sentinel-1 radar data and InSAR technology. A modified approach combining multiscale segmentation and morphological erosion is then proposed to provide a reliable way to extract landfast ice edge. Firstly, the coherence image is obtained using InSAR technology. Then, the edge is separated and extracted with the modified approach. The modified approach is essentially a four-step procedure involving image segmentation, median filter, morphological erosion, and rejection of small patches. Finally, the full extent of landfast ice can be obtained using floodfill algorithm. Multiple InSAR image pairs of Sentinel-1A acquired from 2018 to 2019 are utilized to successfully extract the landfast ice edge in the Gulf of Bothnia. The results show that the landfast ice edge and the extents obtained by the proposed approach are visually consistent with those shown in the ice chart issued by the Swedish Meteorological and Hydrological Institute (SMHI) over a coastline length of 345 km. The mean distance between land–water boundary and the coastline issued by the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is 109.1 m. The modified approach obviously preserves more details in local edge than the reference method. The experimental results show that the modified approach proposed in this paper can extract the edge and map the extent of landfast ice more accurately and quickly, and is therefore expected to contribute to the further understanding and analyzing the changes of landfast ice in the future.

Characterization of a novel shrimp pathogen, Vibrio brasiliensis , isolated from Pacific white shrimp, Penaeus vannamei - Ge Li; Guosi Xie; Hailiang Wang; Xiaoyuan Wan; Xinshu Li; Chengyin Shi; Ziyan Wang; Miao Gong; Ting Li; Ping Wang; Qingli Zhang; Jie Huang (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2021)
A novel pathogenic strain Vibrio 20190611023 was isolated from the hepatopancreas of moribund cultured Penaeus vannamei suffering from black gill disease. This strain was identified as V . brasiliensis based on the phylogenetic analyses of 16S rDNA gene and five other housekeeping genes (i.e., gapA , ftsZ , mreB , topA and gyrB ). Some biochemical features of this strain were determined with an API 20NE system, and its haemolytic activity was determined using a sheep blood agar plate. The pathogenicity of this isolate 20190611023 was confirmed by the experimental challenge tests and histopathological examinations. P. vannamei were challenged via reverse gavage with different doses of bacterial suspensions. The calculated median lethal dose (LD 50 ) was (3.16 ± 1.78) × 10 5 CFU/g (body weight). Moreover, antibiotic susceptibility tests were performed, the results of which showed that the strain 20190611023 was sensitive to chloramphenicol, compound sulphamethoxazole, ciprofloxacin, doxycycline and oxacillin, but resistant to erythromycin, kanamycin, gentamicin, cefoperazone, ceftriaxone, cefamezin and piperacillin. To our knowledge, this is the first report for demonstrating V . brasiliensis as a shrimp pathogen, which expands the host range of V . brasiliensis infection. The present study highlights that more attention should be paid to this novel pathogen in intensive shrimp aquaculture.

Modulation of Antioxidant Enzymes, Heat Shock Protein, and Intestinal Microbiota of Large Yellow Croaker (Larimichthys crocea) Under Acute Cold Stress - Huirong Lv; Yanli Liu; Haidong Li; Xiaolong Yin; Ping Wang; Xiaoyu Qu; Yang Gao; Weiye Li; Zhangjie Chu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
The experiment was conducted in a sealed, temperature-controlled room. The initial water temperature of the treatment group was 12°C, lowered by 1°C a day to 8°C using a chiller, and maintained at that temperature for 3 days. The water temperature was then increased by 1°C per day to 12°C using a heater. The control group were the fish that kept at 12°C at the beginning of the experiment; T1 represents the group that sampled on the first day when the water temperature reached 8 from 12°C; T2 represents the group that sampled when the fish had been kept at 8°C for 3 days; T3 represents the group sampled when the water temperature was increased to 12 from 8°C. The antioxidant abilities of the liver, muscle, and intestine of large yellow croaker at different temperatures and times were determined, and the expression of HSP70 and HSP90 in the liver as well as the changes in intestinal microbiota were investigated. The results showed that the activities of SOD, CAT, GSH-Px, and MDA content increased significantly when the water temperature decreased from 12 to 8°C, significantly higher than those in the control group. The gene expression levels of HSP70 and HSP90 in the liver of large yellow croaker significantly increased under low temperature stress and were significantly higher than those in the control group. The diversity and abundance of intestinal microbiota of large yellow croaker were altered when the water temperature was maintained at 8°C, although the change was not obvious. Proteobacteria, Firmicutes, and Bacteroidetes were the dominate phyla in both the 12 and 8°C groups, and the temperature variation did not change the functional pathways of the microbiota. In conclusion, the acute temperature variation affected the antioxidant ability and heat shock protein expression of large yellow croaker but did not affect the diversity or abundance of the intestinal microbiota. These results will provide a theoretical basis for studying the mechanisms of large yellow croaker overwintering and adaptation to low temperatures.

Long‐term nitrogen input alters plant and soil bacterial, but not fungal beta diversity in a semiarid grassland - Weixing Liu; Lingli Liu; Xian Yang; Meifeng Deng; Zhou Wang; Pandeng Wang; Sen Yang; Ping Li; Ziyang Peng; Lu Yang; Lin Jiang (Global Change Biology, 2021)
Anthropogenic nitrogen (N) input is known to alter plant and microbial α‐diversity, but how N enrichment influences β‐diversity of plant and microbial communities remains poorly understood. Using a long‐term multilevel N addition experiment in a temperate steppe, we show that plant, soil bacterial and fungal communities exhibited different responses in their β‐diversity to N input. Plant β‐diversity decreased linearly as N addition increased, as a result of increased directional environmental filtering, where soil environmental properties largely explained variation in plant β‐diversity. Soil bacterial β‐diversity first increased then decreased with increasing N input, which was best explained by corresponding changes in soil environmental heterogeneity. Soil fungal β‐diversity, however, remained largely unchanged across the N gradient, with plant β‐diversity, soil environmental properties, and heterogeneity together explaining an insignificant fraction of variation in fungal β‐diversity, reflecting the importance of stochastic community assembly. Our study demonstrates the divergent effect of N enrichment on the assembly of plant, soil bacterial and fungal communities, emphasizing the need to examine closely associated fundamental components (i.e., plants and microorganisms) of ecosystems to gain a more complete understanding of ecological consequences of anthropogenic N enrichment.

Genetic mapping of highly versatile and solvent‐tolerant Pseudomonas putida B6 ‐2 ( ATCC BAA ‐2545) as a ‘superstar’ for mineralization of PAHs and dioxin‐like compounds - Weiwei Wang; Qinggang Li; Lige Zhang; Jie Cui; Hao Yu; Xiaoyu Wang; Xingyu Ouyang; Fei Tao; Ping Xu; Hongzhi Tang (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and dioxin‐like compounds, including sulfur, nitrogen and oxygen heterocycles, are widespread and toxic environmental pollutants. A wide variety of microorganisms capable of growing with aromatic polycyclic compounds are essential for bioremediation of the contaminated sites and the Earth's carbon cycle. Here, cells of Pseudomonas putida B6‐2 (ATCC BAA‐2545) grown in the presence of biphenyl (BP) are able to simultaneously degrade PAHs and their derivatives, even when they are present as mixtures, and tolerate high concentrations of extremely toxic solvents. Genetic analysis of the 6.37 Mb genome of strain B6‐2 reveals coexistence of gene clusters responsible for central catabolic systems of aromatic compounds and for solvent tolerance. We used functional transcriptomics and proteomics to identify the candidate genes associated with catabolism of BP and a mixture of BP, dibenzofuran, dibenzothiophene and carbazole. Moreover, we observed dynamic changes in transcriptional levels with BP, including in metabolic pathways of aromatic compounds, chemotaxis, efflux pumps and transporters potentially involved in adaptation to PAHs. This study on the highly versatile activities of strain B6‐2 suggests it to be a potentially useful model for bioremediation of polluted sites and for investigation of biochemical, genetic and evolutionary aspects of Pseudomonas .

Increasing Temperature Alters the Effects of Extracellular Copper on Thalassiosira Pseudonana Physiology and Transcription - Xinjie Wang; Wang Cao; Hong Du; Wenhua Liu; Ping Li (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
Copper (Cu) is essential for many physiological processes in phytoplankton, including electron-transfer reactions and high-affinity Fe transport systems. However, at high concentrations, Cu can have a toxic effect on phytoplankton. Phytoplankton’s tolerance to certain toxicants in marine ecosystems cannot always be solely attributed to the presence of compounds, as various environmental factors including temperature can also indirectly influence their effects on organisms. In this study, we investigated the effects of different Cu concentrations (0, 19.6, 160, 800, and 8000 nM) on the growth and physiological changes in the centric diatom Thalassiosira pseudonana (CCMP 1335) when simultaneously applied with temperature cultivation of 20 °C and 25 °C. At low (0 nM) and high (8000 nM) Cu concentrations, the growth rate of T. pseudonana was inhibited, though an increase in temperature lessened this inhibition. There were no significant changes in the POC:PON ratio during all of the treatments. However, increasing the temperature significantly decreased the POC: POP, PON: POP and BSi: POP ratios of T. pseudonana. The intracellular Cu content of T. pseudonana varied from 0.13 to 13.28 fg cell−1 in response to increases in ambient Cu concentrations. Lastly, an increase in the Cu concentration decreased the transcriptional expression of CTR (copper transporter), 3Hfcp (photosynthetic protein), and Sit1 (silica shell formation) encoding genes. In conclusion, our results indicated that T. pseudonana can adapt to physiological processes and molecular mechanisms in response to varying Cu concentrations and ambient temperatures.

Risk factors for sleep disorders in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis - Gui-Ling Liu; Qiu-Nan Zhan; You-Lu Zhao; Zu-Ying Xiong; Jin-Lan Liao; Ye-Ping Ren; Qin Wang; Li-Ping Duan; Zhao-Xia Zheng; Li Hao; Jie Dong (Sleep and Biological Rhythms, 2021)
Sleep disorders in patients with end-stage renal disease are common but have rarely been reported in previous studies. Therefore, we examined the prevalence of sleep disorders and the risk factors for declining sleep quality in patients undergoing peritoneal dialysis (PD). A multicenter prospective cohort study was conducted at five PD centers across different provinces in China. A total of 449 patients who underwent PD between March to November 2013 were enrolled. Demographic data, laboratory indicators, presence of depression, and sleep assessment data were collected. Sleep questionnaires reflecting five categories of sleep disorders, namely, insomnia, restless legs syndrome, excessive daytime sleepiness, possible narcolepsy, and sleepwalking and nightmares, were administered at baseline and at 24 months postoperatively. Sleep disorders were diagnosed when a patient had at least one sleep problem. At baseline, 335 (74.6%) patients had at least one type of sleep disorder. Depression, diabetes mellitus (DM), and male were found to be associated with the presence of a sleep disorder. At follow-up, the prevalence of insomnia, restless legs syndrome, and excessive daytime sleepiness had significantly increased in 285 patients. Furthermore, cardiovascular disease (CVD) was found to be associated with the presence of sleep disorders in patients with one or more disorders at baseline, whereas a low serum albumin level was found to be associated with sleep disorders in patients without any sleep disorders at baseline. The prevalence of sleep disorders was relatively high among PD patients at baseline and increased afterthe2-year follow-up. Depression, DM, and male were associated with all sleep disorders at baseline. CVD was associated with the presence of a sleep disorder at baseline and worse sleep quality at the 2-year follow-up; whereas a low serum albumin level was associated with the risk of acquiring a sleep disorder at the 2-year follow-up among patients with normal sleep status at baseline.

Comparison of Long-Term Outcomes of Endoscopic and Minimally Invasive Catheter Evacuation for the Treatment of Spontaneous Cerebellar Hemorrhage - Leiyang Li; Haixiao Liu; Jianing Luo; Zhijun Tan; Junmei Gao; Ping Wang; Wenting Jing; Ruixi Fan; Xiaoyang Zhang; Hao Guo; Hao Bai; Wenxing Cui; et al. (Translational Stroke Research, 2021)
Recently, minimally invasive techniques, including endoscopic evacuation and minimally invasive catheter (MIC) evacuation, have been used for the treatment of patients with spontaneous cerebellar hemorrhage (SCH). However, credible evidence is still needed to validate the effects of these techniques. To explore the long-term outcomes of both surgical techniques in the treatment of SCH. Fifty-two patients with SCH who received endoscopic evacuation or MIC evacuation were retrospectively reviewed. Six-month mortality and the modified Rankin Scale (mRS) score were the primary and secondary outcomes, respectively. A multivariate logistic regression model was used to assess the effects of the different surgical techniques on patient outcomes. In the present study, the mortality rate for the entire cohort was 34.6%. Univariate analysis showed that the surgical technique and preoperative Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) score affected 6-month mortality. However, no variables were found to be correlated with 6-month mRS scores. Further multivariate analysis demonstrated that 6-month mortality in the endoscopic evacuation group was significantly lower than that in the MIC evacuation group (OR = 4.346, 95% CI 1.056 to 17.886). The 6-month mortality rate in the preoperative GCS 9–14 group was significantly lower than that in the GCS 3–8 group (OR = 7.328, 95% CI 1.723 to 31.170). Compared with MIC evacuation, endoscopic evacuation significantly decreased 6-month mortality in SCH patients. These preliminary results warrant further large, prospective, randomized studies.

Pregabalin-associated stuttering and frequent blepharospasm: case report and review. - Lingzhi Ge; Ang Li; Ni Wang; Ping Li; Hongyan Xin; Wenfei Li (DARU Journal of Pharmaceutical Sciences, 2020)
Herpes zoster is an acute, painful, herpes skin disease caused by varicella-zoster virus, which may cause viral meningitis. Pregabalin has been shown to be efficacious in the treatment of pain in patients with herpes zoster. However, it has the side effects of neurotoxicity. We describe a 68-year-old female patient with herpes zoster, and she was treated with pregabalin. The patient presented with stuttering and frequent blepharospasm after 3 days of pregabalin treatment. Pregabalin was discontinued, the symptoms of stuttering and frequent blepharospasm completely resolved without any special treatment after one week. In this case, the etiology of stuttering and frequent blepharospasm may be related to pregabalin. Clinicians should be alert to the rare symptoms associated with the use of pregabalin.

Vicissitudes experienced by the oldest urban center in Bangladesh in relation to the migration of the Brahmaputra River - Gang Hu; Ping Wang; Sufi Mostafizur Rahman; Dehong Li; Muhammad Mahbubul Alam; Jiafu Zhang; Zhengyao Jin; Anchuan Fan; Jie Chen; Aimin Zhang; Wenqing Yang (Journal of Quaternary Science, 2020)
Bangladesh is one of the most densely populated countries in the world. There are 57 trans‐frontier rivers in the country, the widest being the Brahmaputra River. The river's channels have frequently changed course, but the relationship between such river migrations and human settlement patterns has remained unstudied. In this paper, optically stimulated luminescence and radiocarbon dating techniques were applied to sedimentary and organic materials in the oldest urban center (Wari‐Bateshwar) in Bangladesh. The results showed that the landscape around the urban center was dominated by floodplain and peatland facies between 7.9–7.6 and 4.7–1.6 ka, respectively. Humans occupied this area at ~3.2 ka, and manufactured delicate semi‐precious gemstone beads between ~2.4 and 1.8 ka. The urban center might be the same as an important city of the Gangaridai described in historical records. Due to fluvial migration at ~1.8 ka, the area surrounding the urban center was covered by fluvial sand. Humans might have been forced to abandon the urban center, leading to the bead processing technology in Bangladesh being lost forever.

Identification of Cyt2Ba from a New Strain of Bacillus thuringiensis and Its Toxicity in Bradysia difformis - Fan-Fan Wang; Shao-Xuan Qu; Jin-Sheng Lin; Hui-Ping Li; Li-Juan Hou; Ning Jiang; Xin Luo; Lin Ma (Current Microbiology, 2020)
Bradysia difformis is one of the most damaging pests in mushroom production in China. In this study, eight Bacillus thuringiensis strains were analyzed for insecticidal activity in B. difformis . The strain JW-1 showed the highest insecticidal activity against B. difformis larvae, but did not inhibit the mycelial growth of Pleurotus ostreatus and P. geesteranus . The 16S rRNA gene (1397 bp) and cyt2 gene (792 bp) were obtained from strain JW-1. The phylogenetic tree based on 16S rRNA gene and Cyt2 toxin showed that strain JW-1 was a member of B. thuringiensis and Cyt2 toxin belonged to Cyt2Ba toxin cluster. The Cyt2Ba toxin from strain JW-1 was overexpressed in E. coli as a fusion protein and the fusion protein (70 kDa) was purified by Ni-IDA affinity chromatography. The purified Cyt2Ba fusion protein was toxic to B. difformis larvae (LC 50 was 2.25 ng/mL). The identification of Cyt2Ba from strain JW-1 and confirmation of the insecticidal activity of Cyt2Ba in B. difformis provided a new means of biological control of the important pest in mushroom production.

Pathogenic characterization of Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. masoucida turbot isolate from China - Ping Wang; Jie Li; Tian Tian He; Nan Li; Zhao Lan Mo; Pin Nie; Hai Xia Xie (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2020)
Aeromonas salmonicida is a gram‐negative bacterium that is the causative agent of furunculosis. An A. salmonicida strain was isolated from diseased turbot ( Scophthalmus maximus ) with the sign of furunculosis from North China. Based on vapA gene, the strain was further classified as A. salmonicida subsp. masoucida RZ6S‐1. Culturing RZ6S‐1 strain at high temperature (28°C) obtained the virulence attenuated strain RZ6S. Genome sequence comparison between the two strains revealed the loss of the type IV secretion system (T4SS) and type III secretion system (T3SS) from the native plasmid pAsmB‐1 and pAsmC‐1 of wild‐type strain RZ6S‐1, respectively. Further study demonstrated that the wild‐type strain RZ6S‐1, but not its derivative mutant RZ6S, can stimulate apoptosis. Elevated protein level of cleaved caspase‐3 was detected from epithelioma papulosum cyprinid (EPC) cells infected with wild‐type strain RZ6S‐1 as compared with that infected with RZ6S strain. Meanwhile, the invasion of the mutant strain RZ6S was about 17‐fold higher than the wild‐type strain RZ6S‐1, suggesting that some protein(s) from A. salmonicida subsp. masoucida RZ6S‐1 suppress its invasion. The RZ6S mutant strain was attenuated, since its LD 50 is over 10,000 times higher compared to the wild‐type strain as revealed in the turbot infection model.

Impacts of climate anomalies on the interannual and interdecadal variability of autumn and winter haze in North China: A review - Jing Wang; Yanju Liu; Yihui Ding; Ping Wu; Zhiwei Zhu; Ying Xu; Qiaoping Li; Yingxian Zhang; Jinhai He; Julian X. L. Wang; Li Qi (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
From the perspectives of remote sensing and climatic factors like surface meteorological parameters, large‐scale atmospheric circulations, and external forcing factors (EFFs), the authors synthesize and review spatiotemporal variations of PM 2.5 over North China and how climate anomalies affect autumn and winter haze variability in North China according to recent studies. This review focuses on both interannual and interdecadal timescales. It is shown that circulations play an important role in influencing haze variability. Atmospheric circulations, which would be modulated by EFFs like sea surface temperature, sea ice, and snowpack, can affect the climate variability in haze over North China via modulation of surface‐layer parameters that are closely connected with the haze phenomenon. Therefore, EFFs are deemed significant factors impacting the climate variability of haze over North China, serving as paramount precursory signals for haze prediction. Furthermore, this paper suggests potential future research directions for haze variability studies in North China on the basis of summarizing and concluding the associated processes/mechanisms on how climatic factors affect haze variability, which could provide reference for treating and forecasting in situ hazy conditions.
