Late Quaternary glacial advances in the eastern Qilianshan, north‐eastern Tibet, as inferred from luminescence dating of fluvioglacial sediments - Gang Hu; Chao‐Lu Yi; Jia‐Fu Zhang; Jin‐Hua Liu; Tao Jiang; Sheng‐Hua Li (Journal of Quaternary Science, 2016)
The Qilianshan [ shan means ‘mountain(s)’ in Chinese] are important for understanding the Quaternary glaciations which occurred along the north‐eastern margins of the Tibetan Plateau (TP). Two sets of moraines identified in the Gangshika Valley on the southern slopes of the Qilianshan, and in the Jindonggou Valley on the northern slopes of the Lenglongling Ridge in the eastern Qilianshan, were dated using optically stimulated luminescence (OSL) dating. The D e values of the sediments were determined using single aliquot regeneration (SAR) and ‘global standardized growth curve’ (gSGC) procedures. The gSGC method was first applied to glacial sediment and proved to be adaptable. Based on D e distribution analysis, and a comparison between the ages of coarse‐grained (90–125 μm) quartz, we concluded that the minimum age model (MAM) OSL age obtained may be closer to the burial age of the sediments. The first set of moraines in the Gangshika Valley was formed at 18.1 ± 1.8 ka. The second set of moraines in both the Gangshika and the Jindonggou valleys was mainly formed at ∼12.5–10.7 ka, consistent with the Younger Drays chronozone, most probably covering the moraines produced at 14.3 ± 1.4 ka. These results indicate that the glaciers along the Lenglongling Ridge were sensitive to abrupt decreases in temperature.

Autophagy Promotes Peripheral Nerve Regeneration and Motor Recovery Following Sciatic Nerve Crush Injury in Rats - Hai-cheng Huang; Li Chen; Hai-xing Zhang; Sheng-fa Li; Pei Liu; Tian-yun Zhao; Chuan-xiang Li (Journal of Molecular Neuroscience, 2016)
Autophagy maintains cellular homeostasis by stimulating the lysosomal degradation of cytoplasmic structures, including damaged organelles and dysfunctional proteins. The role of autophagy in the renewal and regeneration of injured peripheral nerves remains poorly understood. The current study investigated the role of autophagy in peripheral nerve regeneration and motor function recovery following sciatic nerve crush injury in rats by stimulating or suppressing autophagy and detecting the presence of autophagosomes and LC3-II expression by electron microscopy and Western blotting, respectively. Neurobehavioral function was tested by CatWalk gait analysis 1, 2, 3, and 6 weeks after injury, and the expression of neurofilament (NF)-200 and myelin basic protein (MBP) at the injury site was examined by immunocytochemistry. Apoptosis at the lesion site was determined by the terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling assay. Treatment of injured rats with the autophagy inducer rapamycin increased the number of autophagosomes and LC3-II expression while reducing the number of apoptotic cells at the lesion; this was associated with an upregulation of MBP and NF-200 expression and increased motor function recovery as compared to sham-operated rats and those that were subjected to crush injury but untreated. The opposite effects were observed in rats treated with the autophagy inhibitor 3-methyladenine. These data indicate that the modulation of autophagy in peripheral nerve injury could be an effective pharmacological approach to promote nerve regeneration and reestablish motor function.

Methane and nitrous oxide emissions under no‐till farming in China: a meta‐analysis - Xin Zhao; Sheng‐Li Liu; Chao Pu; Xiang‐Qian Zhang; Jian‐Fu Xue; Ran Zhang; Yu‐Qiao Wang; Rattan Lal; Hai‐Lin Zhang; Fu Chen (Global Change Biology, 2016)
No‐till ( NT ) practices are among promising options toward adaptation and mitigation of climate change. However, the mitigation effectiveness of NT depends not only on its carbon sequestration potential but also on soil‐derived CH 4 and N 2 O emissions. A meta‐analysis was conducted, using a dataset involving 136 comparisons from 39 studies in China, to identify site‐specific factors which influence CH 4 emission, CH 4 uptake, and N 2 O emission under NT . Comparative treatments involved NT without residue retention ( NT 0), NT with residue retention ( NTR ), compared to plow tillage ( PT ) with residue removed ( PT 0). Overall, NT 0 significantly decreased CH 4 emission by ~30% ( P 0.05) compared to PT 0 with an average emission 218.8 kg ha −1 for rice paddies. However, the increase in N 2 O emission could partly offset the benefits of the decrease in CH 4 emission under NT compared to PT 0. NTR significantly enhanced N 2 O emission by 82.1%, 25.5%, and 20.8% ( P 0.05) compared to PT 0 for rice paddies, acid soils, and the first 5 years of the experiments, respectively. The results from categorical meta‐analysis indicated that the higher N 2 O emission could be mitigated by adopting NT within alkaline soils, for long‐term duration, and with less N fertilization input when compared to PT 0. In addition, the natural log (lnR) of response ratio of CH 4 and N 2 O emissions under NT correlated positively (enhancing emission) with climate factors (temperature and precipitation) and negatively (reducing emission) with experimental duration, suggesting that avoiding excess soil wetness and using NT for a long term could enhance the benefits of NT . Therefore, a thorough understanding of the conditions favoring greenhouse gas(es) reductions is essential to achieving climate change mitigation and advancing food security in China.

Sherwood; Sheng Zhang; Ornella D. Nelson; Zhi Li; Hening Lin; Stephen J. Callister; Ruth E. Richardson (Environmental Microbiology, 2015)
Summary Understanding of microbial metal reduction is based almost solely on studies of G ram‐negative organisms. In this study, we focus on D esulfotomaculum reducens MI ‐1, a G ram‐positive metal reducer whose genome lacks genes with similarity to any characterized metal reductase. Using non‐denaturing separations and mass spectrometry identification, in combination with a colorimetric screen for chelated F e( III )‐ NTA reduction with NADH as electron donor, we have identified proteins from the D . reducens proteome not previously characterized as iron reductases. Their function was confirmed by heterologous expression in E scherichia coli . Furthermore, we show that these proteins have the capability to reduce soluble C r( VI ) and U ( VI ) with NADH as electron donor. The proteins identified are NADH : flavin oxidoreductase ( D red_2421) and a protein complex composed of oxidoreductase flavin adenine dinucleotide/ NAD ( P )‐binding subunit ( D red_1685) and dihydroorotate dehydrogenase 1B ( D red_1686). D red_2421 was identified in the soluble proteome and is predicted to be a cytoplasmic protein. D red_1685 and D red_1686 were identified in both the soluble as well as the insoluble protein fraction, suggesting a type of membrane association, although PSORTb predicts both proteins are cytoplasmic. This study is the first functional proteomic analysis of D . reducens and one of the first analyses of metal and radionuclide reduction in an environmentally relevant G ram‐positive bacterium.

Stripe rust, caused by Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici ( Pst ), is one of the most important diseases on wheat in China. To assess resistance in wheat cultivars and breeding lines in China, 330 leading cultivars and 164 advanced breeding lines were evaluated with stripe rust. In the greenhouse tests, seedlings of the entries were inoculated separately with several Pst pathotypes. In the field tests, the entries were evaluated for stripe rust resistance in Yangling, Shaanxi Province artificially inoculated and in Tianshui, Gansu Province under natural infection of Pst . The oversummering/wintering and spring epidemic zones of resistance genes were postulated using molecular markers for Yr5 , Yr9 , Yr10 , Yr15 , Yr17 , Yr18 , and Yr26 , in combination with resistance spectra. Out of the 494 wheat entries, 16 (3.24 %) entries had all-stage resistance (ASR) in all race tests, 99 (20.04 %) had adult-plant resistance (APR), 28 (5.67 %) were considered to have slow-rusting (SR), and 351 (71.05 %) were susceptible to one or more races in both seedling and adult-plant stages. Advanced breeding lines had a higher percentage (37.2 %) of resistant entries (The sum of ASR, APR and SR) than leading cultivars (24.85 %). Among the epidemic regions, southern Gansu had a higher percentage of resistant entries than any other regions. Based on stripe rust reactions and molecular markers, two cultivars were found to possibly have Yr5 while no entries have Yr10 or Yr15 . Resistance genes Yr9 , Yr17 , Yr18 , and Yr26 were found in 134 (29.4 %), 45 (9.1 %), 10 (2 %), and 15 (3 %) entries, respectively.

Comparative genomic analysis provides insights into the evolution and niche adaptation of marine M agnetospira sp. QH ‐2 strain - Boyang Ji; Sheng‐Da Zhang; Pascal Arnoux; Zoe Rouy; François Alberto; Nadège Philippe; Dorothée Murat; Wei‐Jia Zhang; Jean‐Baptiste Rioux; Nicolas Ginet; Monique Sabaty; Sophie Mangenot; et al. (Environmental Microbiology, 2014)
Summary Magnetotactic bacteria ( MTB ) are capable of synthesizing intracellular organelles, the magnetosomes, that are membrane‐bounded magnetite or greigite crystals arranged in chains. Although MTB are widely spread in various ecosystems, few axenic cultures are available, and only freshwater M agnetospirillum spp. have been genetically analysed. Here, we present the complete genome sequence of a marine magnetotactic spirillum, M agnetospira sp. QH ‐2. The high number of repeats and transposable elements account for the differences in QH ‐2 genome structure compared with other relatives. Gene cluster synteny and gene correlation analyses indicate that the insertion of the magnetosome island in the QH ‐2 genome occurred after divergence between freshwater and marine magnetospirilla. The presence of a sodium‐quinone reductase, sodium transporters and other functional genes are evidence of the adaptive evolution of M agnetospira sp. QH ‐2 to the marine ecosystem. Genes well conserved among freshwater magnetospirilla for nitrogen fixation and assimilatory nitrate respiration are absent from the QH ‐2 genome. Unlike freshwater M agnetospirillum spp., marine M agnetospira sp. QH ‐2 neither has TonB and TonB ‐dependent receptors nor does it grow on trace amounts of iron. Taken together, our results show a distinct, adaptive evolution of M agnetospira sp. QH ‐2 to marine sediments in comparison with its closely related freshwater counterparts.

Genetic diversity of Bartonella quintana in macaques suggests zoonotic origin of trench fever - Hao Li; Jie‐Ying Bai; Li‐Yuan Wang; Lin Zeng; Yan‐Sheng Shi; Zheng‐Liang Qiu; Hua‐Hu Ye; Xiao‐Fei Zhang; Qing‐Bin Lu; Michael Kosoy; Wei Liu; Wu‐Chun Cao (Molecular Ecology, 2013)
Bartonella quintana is a bacterium that causes a broad spectrum of diseases in humans including trench fever. Humans were previously considered to be the primary, if not the only, reservoir hosts for B. quintana . To identify the animal reservoir and extend our understanding of the ecological and evolutionary history of B. quintana , we examined blood samples from macaques and performed multilocus sequence typing ( MLST ) analysis. We demonstrated the prevalence of B. quintana infection was common in macaques from main primate centres in mainland C hina. Overall, 18.0% (59/328) of rhesus macaques and 12.7% (39/308) of cynomolgus macaques were found to be infected with B. quintana by blood culture and/or polymerase chain reaction. The infection was more frequently identified in juvenile and young monkeys compared with adult animals. In contrast with the relatively low level of sequence divergence of B. quintana reported in humans, our investigation revealed much higher genetic diversity in nonhuman primates. We identified 44 new nucleotide variable sites and 14 novel sequence types (STs) among the B. quintana isolates by MLST analysis. Some STs were found only in cynomolgus macaques, while some others were detected only in rhesus macaques, suggesting evidence of host‐cospeciation, which were further confirmed by phylogenetic analysis and Splits decomposition analysis. Our findings suggest that trench fever may primarily be a zoonotic disease with macaques as the natural hosts.

Spatial patterns and climate drivers of carbon fluxes in terrestrial ecosystems of China - Gui‐Rui Yu; Xian‐Jin Zhu; Yu‐Ling Fu; Hong‐Lin He; Qiu‐Feng Wang; Xue‐Fa Wen; Xuan‐Ran Li; Lei‐Ming Zhang; Li Zhang; Wen Su; Sheng‐Gong Li; Xiao‐Min Sun; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2013)
Understanding the dynamics and underlying mechanism of carbon exchange between terrestrial ecosystems and the atmosphere is one of the key issues in global change research. In this study, we quantified the carbon fluxes in different terrestrial ecosystems in China, and analyzed their spatial variation and environmental drivers based on the long‐term observation data of China FLUX sites and the published data from other flux sites in China. The results indicate that gross ecosystem productivity ( GEP ), ecosystem respiration ( ER ), and net ecosystem productivity ( NEP ) of terrestrial ecosystems in China showed a significantly latitudinal pattern, declining linearly with the increase of latitude. However, GEP , ER , and NEP did not present a clear longitudinal pattern. The carbon sink functional areas of terrestrial ecosystems in China were mainly located in the subtropical and temperate forests, coastal wetlands in eastern China, the temperate meadow steppe in the northeast China, and the alpine meadow in eastern edge of Qinghai‐Tibetan Plateau. The forest ecosystems had stronger carbon sink than grassland ecosystems. The spatial patterns of GEP and ER in China were mainly determined by mean annual precipitation ( MAP ) and mean annual temperature ( MAT ), whereas the spatial variation in NEP was largely explained by MAT . The combined effects of MAT and MAP explained 79%, 62%, and 66% of the spatial variations in GEP , ER , and NEP , respectively. The GEP , ER , and NEP in different ecosystems in China exhibited ‘positive coupling correlation’ in their spatial patterns. Both ER and NEP were significantly correlated with GEP , with 68% of the per‐unit GEP contributed to ER and 29% to NEP . MAT and MAP affected the spatial patterns of ER and NEP mainly by their direct effects on the spatial pattern of GEP .

Previous studies have indicated that C hina is one of the domestication centres of A sian cultivated rice ( O ryza sativa ), and common wild rice ( O . rufipogon ) is the progenitor of O . sativa . However, the number of domestication times and the geographic origin of A sian cultivated rice in C hina are still under debate. In this study, 100 accessions of A sian cultivated rice and 111 accessions of common wild rice in C hina were selected to examine the relationship between O . sativa and O . rufipogon and thereby infer the domestication and evolution of O . sativa in C hina through sequence analyses of six gene regions, trn C ‐ycf6 in chloroplast genomes, cox3 in mitochondrial genomes and ITS , E hd1 , W axy , H d1 in nuclear genomes. The results indicated that the two subspecies of O . sativa (indica and japonica) were domesticated independently from different populations of O . rufipogon with gene flow occurring later from japonica to indica; S outhern C hina was the genetic diversity centre of O . rufipogon , and the P earl R iver basin near the T ropic of C ancer was the domestication centre of O . sativa in C hina.

Begomovirus–whitefly mutualism is achieved through repression of plant defences by a virus pathogenicity factor - TONG ZHANG; JUN‐BO LUAN; JIN‐FENG QI; CHANG‐JUN HUANG; MENG LI; XUE‐PING ZHOU; SHU‐SHENG LIU (Molecular Ecology, 2012)
Plant‐mediated interactions between herbivorous arthropods and pathogens transmitted by herbivores are important determinants of the population dynamics of both types of organisms in the field. The role of plant defence in mediating these types of tripartite interactions have been recognized but rarely examined especially at the physiological and molecular levels. Our previous work shows that a worldwide invasive whitefly can establish mutualism with the begomovirus Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus (TYLCCNV) via crop plants. Here, we show that TYLCCNV and betasatellite co‐infection suppresses jasmonic acid defences in the plant. Impairing or enhancing defences mediated by jasmonic acid in the plant enhances or depresses the performance of the whitefly. We further demonstrate that the pathogenicity factor βC1 encoded in the betasatellite is responsible for the initiation of suppression on plant defences and contributes to the realization of the virus–vector mutualism. By integrating ecological, mechanistic and molecular approaches, our study reveals a major mechanism of the plant‐mediated mutualism between a virus and its vector. As the test plant is an important economic crop, the results also have substantial implications for developing novel strategies for management of crop viruses and the insect vectors associated with them.

A novel genus of multicellular magnetotactic prokaryotes from the Yellow Sea - Ke Zhou; Wen‐Yan Zhang; Kui Yu‐Zhang; Hong‐Miao Pan; Sheng‐Da Zhang; Wei‐Jia Zhang; Hai‐Dong Yue; Ying Li; Tian Xiao; Long‐Fei Wu (Environmental Microbiology, 2012)
Summary Multicellular magnetotactic prokaryotes (MMPs) are a group of magnetotactic microorganisms composed of 10–40 Gram‐negative cells. Currently, all the identified MMPs show a spherical morphology and synthesize mainly iron sulfide magnetosomes. In this study, we report a novel genus of MMPs with peculiar ellipsoidal morphology and iron oxide magnetosomes, which were discovered in intertidal sediment of the Yellow Sea in China. Optical and fluorescence microscopy revealed that this organism was ∼10 × 8 µm in size and composed of ∼40 cells enveloped by an outer layer. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the cells were arranged in 4–6 interlaced circles. Bullet‐shaped magnetite magnetosomes were organized in chains roughly parallel to the long axis of the ellipsoidal MMPs when analysed by transmission electron microscopy. These MMPs displayed special escape motility, i.e. swimming rapidly from the edge to the centre of the droplet and then slowly back to the edge. In addition, they exhibited negative phototaxis. Light microscopy observations showed that the ellipsoidal MMPs reproduced by division along the body long axis. Both analysis of 16S rRNA gene sequence and fluorescence in situ hybridization revealed the ellipsoidal MMPs as a new genus of the Deltaproteobacteria . In summary, this novel genus of MMPs exhibit unique morphology, peculiar division process and distinct phylogenetic affiliation compared with the other MMPs.
