Multiple Fetal Nutritional Patterns Before Parturition in Viviparous Fish Sebastes schlegelii (Hilgendorf, 1880) - Du Tengfei; Xiao Yongshuang; Zhao Haixia; Zhou Li; Liu Qinghua; Wang Xueying; Li Jun; Xu Shihong; Wang Yanfeng; Yu Jiachen; Wu Lele; Wang Yunong; et al. (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Sebastes schlegelii is a commercially important fish with a special viviparous reproductive system that is cultured in near-shore seawater net cages in East Asia. In the gonadal development of the species, the gonad of males mature before those of females, which mature after mating. Mating in male/female fishes occurs in October of each year. Then, females undergoing oocyte maturation complete fertilization using stored sperm in March of the following year. The pregnancy is completed when larvae are produced in the ovary. It has been reported that embryonic nutrient supply originates entirely from the female viviparous reproductive systems. However, until now, the nutritional patterns and the processes of nutrient provision in S. schlegelii before parturition have not been clear. The goal of this research was to study the embryos, larvae and juveniles of S. schlegelii during pregnancy. Anatomical observations, light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy were used to study the developmental characteristics of early embryos and larvae and the connecting structures between the mother and the fetus. The results showed the following: (1) Placental-like structures were found during the process of embryonic development in S. schlegelii , and these placental-like structures proliferated after fertilization. (2) The embryos of S. schlegelii were encased by a saclike structure composed of blood vessels, connective tissue, and surface epithelial cells. The vessels near the embryo existed in the thecal layer. Vascularized proliferation was detected following embryonic development. (3) Starting in the gastrula stage, connections between the embryo and surrounding cells loosened, and ovarian fluid became abundant. In addition, a large number of small holes and cristae were observed on the surface of the embryo. We speculate that embryos may be able to absorb nutrients from the ovarian fluid. (4) Yolk was present throughout embryo development. (5) Two types of nutritional modes were observed, lecithotrophic and matrotrophic during embryonic development. Three forms of placental analogs may exist in S. schlegelii : (1) external epithelial absorptive surfaces; (2) trophonemata, with modifications of the ovarian epithelia for absorbing the histotroph; and (3) a follicular pseudoplacenta, with close apposition between follicle cells and embryonic absorptive epithelia.

A Deep Insight of Spermatogenesis and Hormone Levels of Aqua-Cultured Turbot (Scophthalmus maximus) - Yifan Liu; Qinghua Liu; Shihong Xu; Yanfeng Wang; Chengcheng Feng; Chunyan Zhao; Zongcheng Song; Jun Li (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Turbot ( Scophthalmus maximus ) is an important marine fish both in Europe and North China. Although there are plenty of studies on the reproduction of turbot, the complete cytological process of spermatogenesis remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the submicroscopic structure of total 23 types of male germ cells throughout the breeding season, with a relatively complete process of the primary spermatocytes. We found that the spermatid tail formed early at Spermatid II, and there were at least 16 spherical mitochondria in the spermatozoa. The hepatosomatic index (HSI) and gonadosomatic index (GSI) both peaked during the breeding season. Preliminary analysis showed that the vitality of mature sperm was negatively correlated with the proportion of sperm deformity. The serum 3,5,3′-triiodothyronine (T3), 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), testosterone (T), 17α,20β-Dihydroxy-4-pregnen-3-one (17α,20β-DHP), and 17β-estradiol (E2) all increased during the maturity period, with the change of T content most noticeable. Whereas in the testis, an overall high level of 11-ketotestosterone (11-KT) was more remarkable. The expression and localization of androgen receptor ( AR ) mRNA showed that the AR was highly expressed at the stages of II (15 – 70 g), with a slight rebound at the mature stages [IV(2200 g) to V(2500 g)], whose change was ahead to the changes of T and 11-KT. Fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) analysis showed that the AR mainly distributed in but not limited to Sertoli cells. This study represents the most complete overview of the reproductive cycle and spermatogenesis of turbot, which provides an important reference for the reproduction research and the guidance of flatfish breeding.

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.

(European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2020)
Since the outbreak of novel coronavirus infection pneumonia in Wuhan City, China, in late 2019, such cases have been gradually reported in other parts of China and abroad. Children have become susceptible to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) because of their immature immune function. As the outbreak has progressed, more cases of novel coronavirus infection/pneumonia in children have been reported. Compared with adults, the impact of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children is less severe, with a lower incidence and susceptibility in children, which results in fewer children being tested, thereby underestimating the actual number of infections. Therefore, strengthening the diagnosis of the disease is particularly important for children, and early and clear diagnosis can determine treatment strategies and reduce the harm caused by the disease to children. According to the Novel Coronavirus Infection Pneumonia Diagnosis and Treatment Standards ( trial version 7 ) issued by National Health Committee and the latest diagnosis and treatment strategies for novel coronavirus infection pneumonia in children, this review summarizes current strategies on diagnosis and treatment of SARS-CoV-2 infection in children.

Quorum sensing regulation confronts the development of a viable but non‐culturable state in Vibrio cholerae - Bin Wu; Weili Liang; Meiying Yan; Jie Li; Hongqun Zhao; Lunbiao Cui; Fengcai Zhu; Jun Zhu; Biao Kan (Environmental Microbiology, 2020)
Summary Vibrio cholerae can enter a viable but non‐culturable (VBNC) state when it encounters unfavourable environments; VBNC cells serve as important reservoirs and still pose threats to public health. The genetic regulation of V. cholerae entering its VBNC state is not well understood. Here, we show a confrontation strategy adapted by V. cholerae O1 in which it utilizes a quorum sensing (QS) system to prevent transition into a VBNC state under low nutrition and temperature conditions. The upregulation of hapR resulted in a prolonged culturable state of V. cholerae in artificial sea water at 4°C, whereas the mutation of hapR led to fast entry into the VBNC state. We also observed that different V. cholerae O1 natural isolates with distinct QS functions present a variety of abilities to maintain culturability during the transition to a VBNC state. The strain groups with higher or constitutive expression of QS genes exhibit a greater tendency to maintain the culturable state during VBNC induction than those lacking QS functional groups. In summary, HapR‐mediated QS regulation is associated with the transition to the VBNC state in V. cholerae . HapR expression causes V. cholerae to resist VBNC induction and become dominant over competitors in changing environments.

Spatiotemporal distributions of cloud radiative forcing and response to cloud parameters over the Mongolian Plateau during 2003–2017 - Shanhu Bao; Husi Letu; Jun Zhao; Yonghui Lei; Chuanfeng Zhao; Jiming Li; Gegen Tana; Chao Liu; Enliang Guo; Jie Zhang; Jie He; Yuhai Bao (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
The Mongolian Plateau (MP) is among the most sensitive areas to global climate change, and the clouds over the MP have a greater impact on regional and global radiation budgets by altering the atmospheric and surface radiative forcing. In this study, daily Cloud and Earth Radiation Energy System data are used to investigate spatiotemporal variation of cloud radiative forcing (CRF) at the top of atmosphere (TOA), surface and atmosphere over the MP from 2003 to 2017 and then combined with Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectroradiometer level 2 atmospheric data during the same period to analyse the cloud parameter impacts on CRF over the MP. At the TOA and surface, net radiative forcing (NRF) and shortwave radiative forcing (SRF) have cooling effects and longwave radiative forcing (LRF) have heating effects in all four seasons, and the NRF cooling effect in most areas of the MP decreases in summer and autumn and increases in spring and winter. In the atmosphere, SRF in spring and summer and NRF in summer reach larger values and heat the atmosphere, and LRF plays a strong cooling role in winter. The NRF change trend in the atmosphere over Mongolia is noteworthy in spring, its reduction slope is large, and most areas of Mongolia passed a significance test. As expected, a significant negative correlation was observed between cloud cover and NRF (as well as SRF) at the TOA and surface and a positive correlation was observed with NRF/SRF in the atmosphere and all LRF. With the increase in cloud optical thickness and cloud water path, the NRF and SRF cooling effects at the TOA and surface, the LRF cooling effect in the atmosphere, the LRF heating effect at the surface, and the SRF heating effect in the atmosphere all become stronger.

Gypenosides Prevent H2O2-Induced Retinal Ganglion Cell Apoptosis by Concurrently Suppressing the Neuronal Oxidative Stress and Inflammatory Response - Hong-Kan Zhang; Yuan Ye; Kai-Jun Li; Zhen-ni Zhao; Jian-Feng He (Journal of Molecular Neuroscience, 2020)
Our previous study demonstrated that gypenosides (Gp) exert protective effects on retinal nerve fibers and axons in a mouse model of experimental autoimmune optic neuritis. However, the therapeutic mechanisms remain unclear. Thus, in this study, a model of oxidative damage in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) was established to investigate the protective effect of Gp, and its possible influence on oxidative stress in RGCs. Treatment of cells with H 2 O 2 induced RGC injury owing to the generation of intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS). In addition, the activities of antioxidative enzymes decreased and the expression of inflammatory factors increased, resulting in an increase in cellular apoptosis. Gp helped RGCs to become resistant to oxidation damage by directly reducing the amount of ROS in cells and exerting protective effects against H 2 O 2 -induced apoptosis. Treatment with Gp also reduced the generation of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2), and increased nuclear respiratory factor 2 (Nrf-2) levels so as to increase the levels of heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) and glutathione peroxidase 1/2 (Gpx1/2), which can enhance antioxidation in RGCs. In conclusion, our data indicate that neuroprotection by Gp involves its antioxidation and anti-inflammation effects. Gp prevents apoptosis through a mitochondrial apoptotic pathway. This finding might provide novel insights into understanding the mechanism of the neuroprotective effects of gypenosides in the treatment of optic neuritis.

Responses of soil moisture to regional climate change over the Three Rivers Source Region on the Tibetan Plateau - Mingshan Deng; Xianhong Meng; Zhaoguo Li; Yaqiong Lyv; Huajin Lei; Lin Zhao; Shengnan Zhao; Jun Ge; Hui Jing (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
In this study, soil moisture data from two reanalysis datasets (ERA‐Interim, ERA5), a satellite soil moisture product from the European Space Agency (ESA) and three assimilation datasets from the Global Land Data Assimilation System (GLDAS), that is, GLADS‐NOAH025, GLADS‐NOAH10, and GLDAS‐CLM were compared with the observed soil moisture data in Maqu and Maduo stations over the Three Rivers Source Region (TRSR) on the Tibetan Plateau in China. Comparative statistical parameters between the soil moisture observations and the products, including the root mean square error, correlation coefficient ( R ), and standard deviation ratio were calculated to evaluate the products in different seasons. It was found that most products overestimated the soil moisture values, among which GLADS‐NOAH025 had relatively good consistency with the observations in the surface soil layer (0–10 cm), whereas GLDAS‐CLM agreed well with the observations in the 10–40 cm layer. Both ERA5 and ERA‐interim soil moisture overestimated soil moisture at all levels. The responses of soil moisture to regional climate change over the TRSR were also investigated by using the GLDAS‐NOAH025 soil moisture product, the ESA soil moisture product, and the observations during the nonfreezing period. The results show that the trends of soil moisture are consistent with the precipitation changes in the main central part of the TRSR. A significant positive correlation was found between soil moisture and precipitation in most regions of the TRSR, which indicates that soil moisture increases with the increase of precipitation, except in the northwest TRSR, where the variation of soil moisture was possibly influenced by both the precipitation changes and the increase of evapotranspiration.

Native bighead carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis and silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix populations in the Pearl River are threatened by Yangtze River introductions as revealed by mitochondrial DNA - Chao Li; Junjie Wang; Jiaqi Chen; Kevin Schneider; Radhakrishnan K. Veettil; Kathryn R. Elmer; Jun Zhao (Journal of Fish Biology, 2020)
Bighead carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis and silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix have been two economically important aquaculture species in China for centuries. In the past decades, bighead and silver carp have been introduced from the Yangtze River to many river systems in China, including the Pearl River, in annual, large‐scale, stocking activities to enhance wild fisheries. Nonetheless, few studies have assessed the ecological or genetic impacts of such introductions on native conspecific fish populations. An mtDNA D‐loop segment of 978 bp from 213 bighead carp samples from 9 populations and a 975 bp segment from 204 silver carp samples from 10 populations were obtained to evaluate genetic diversity and population integrity. Results from a haplotype network analysis revealed that most haplotypes of the Pearl River clustered with those of Yangtze River origin and only a small proportion were distinct, suggesting that both the native Pearl River bighead and silver carp populations are currently dominated by genetic material from the Yangtze River. The genetic diversity of Pearl River populations is high in both species because of this inter‐population gene flow, but the diversity of native Pearl River populations is low. To preserve the native genetic diversity, stocking of non‐native fingerlings should cease immediately and native Pearl River bighead and silver carp fish farms should be established. This research demonstrates the danger to native biodiversity across China because of the substantial, ongoing stock‐enhancement activities without prior genetic assessment.

An ecological barrier between the Himalayas and the Hengduan Mountains maintains the disjunct distribution of Roscoea - De‐Bao Li; Xiao‐Kun Ou; Jian‐Li Zhao; Qing‐Jun Li (Journal of Biogeography, 2020)
Aim Regional disjunction in mountainous regions is ubiquitous and is closely associated with the evolution of mountain biodiversity. However, the mechanisms of maintaining regional disjunction are often ignored, especially regarding the role of ecological barriers. The aim of this study is to test whether an ecological barrier maintains the regional disjunction of Roscoea between the Himalayas (HIM) and the Hengduan Mountains/Yun‐Gui Plateau (HMY). Location The Himalayas and the Hengduan Mountains/Yun‐Gui Plateau, Asia. Taxon Monocot:Zingiberales:Zingiberaceae: Roscoea . Methods Occurrence data from Roscoea were collected from public databases and field investigations. Environmental niche modelling (ENM) was used to predict the potential distribution of Roscoea during the Last Interglacial (LIG), the Last Glacial Maximum (LGM), the present and the future. An environmental variable difference test, principal component analysis (PCA), discriminant function analysis (DFA) and niche identity test were employed to qualify and quantify the contributions of environmental factors to ecological divergence based on 7 and 26 environmental variables. Results Environmental niche modelling predicted an ecological gap of Roscoea between the HIM and the HMY from the LIG into the future, excluding the LGM. Statistically significant differences were detected in eight unique environmental variables across the Gap, which was mostly related to low temperatures and high moisture levels. The PCA, DFA and niche identity test suggested larger ecological separations among the Gap, the HIM and the HMY based on 26 environmental variables than based on seven variables. Main conclusions All clues point to an ecological barrier that has been maintaining the regional disjunction of Roscoea . This ecological barrier is predicted to be stable under future climate change and may reflect long‐term ecological divergence shaped by the adaptation of Roscoea to divergent habitats. Our study highlights that the effects of specific environmental variables, with possible interactions among multiple ecological factors, being closely related to the ecological barrier.

The false smut pathogen Ustilaginoidea virens requires rice stamens for false smut ball formation - Jing Fan; Jie Liu; Zhi‐You Gong; Pei‐Zhou Xu; Xiao‐Hong Hu; Jin‐Long Wu; Guo‐Bang Li; Juan Yang; Yu‐Qiu Wang; Yu‐Feng Zhou; Shuang‐Cheng Li; Li Wang; et al. (Environmental Microbiology, 2020)
Summary Rice false smut has emerged as a serious grain disease in rice production worldwide. The disease is characterized by the transformation of individual rice florets into false smut balls, which is caused by the fungal pathogen Ustilaginoidea virens . To date, little is known about the host factors required for false smut ball formation by U . virens . In this study, we identified histological determinants for the formation of false smut balls by inoculating U . virens into rice floral mutants defective with respect to individual floral parts. The results showed that U . virens could form mature false smut balls in rice floral mutants with defective pistils, but failed to develop false smut balls in the superwoman mutant lacking stamens, identifying that U . virens requires rice stamens to complete its infection cycle. Comparative transcriptome analysis indicated a list of candidate host genes that may facilitate nutrient acquisition by U . virens from the rice stamens, such as SWEET11 , SWEET14 and SUT5 , and genes involved in the biosynthesis of trehalose and raffinose family sugars. These data pinpoint rice stamens as the key target organ of U . virens infection and provide a valuable starting point for dissecting the molecular mechanism of false smut ball formation.

Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people. Plant trait data thus represent the basis for a vast area of research spanning from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology, to biodiversity conservation, ecosystem and landscape management, restoration, biogeography and earth system modelling. Since its foundation in 2007, the TRY database of plant traits has grown continuously. It now provides unprecedented data coverage under an open access data policy and is the main plant trait database used by the research community worldwide. Increasingly, the TRY database also supports new frontiers of trait‐based plant research, including the identification of data gaps and the subsequent mobilization or measurement of new data. To support this development, in this article we evaluate the extent of the trait data compiled in TRY and analyse emerging patterns of data coverage and representativeness. Best species coverage is achieved for categorical traits—almost complete coverage for ‘plant growth form’. However, most traits relevant for ecology and vegetation modelling are characterized by continuous intraspecific variation and trait–environmental relationships. These traits have to be measured on individual plants in their respective environment. Despite unprecedented data coverage, we observe a humbling lack of completeness and representativeness of these continuous traits in many aspects. We, therefore, conclude that reducing data gaps and biases in the TRY database remains a key challenge and requires a coordinated approach to data mobilization and trait measurements. This can only be achieved in collaboration with other initiatives.

Multi‐model analysis of climate impacts on plant photosynthesis in China during 2000–2015 - Hao Yan; Shao‐Qiang Wang; Jun‐Bang Wang; Yun Cao; Ling‐Ling Xu; Men‐Xin Wu; Lu Cheng; Liu‐Xi Mao; Feng‐Hua Zhao; Xian‐Zhou Zhang; Yun‐Fen Liu; Yan‐Fen Wang; et al. (International Journal of Climatology, 2019)
Differences, arising from differences in gross primary production (GPP) model structures and driving forces, have fuelled arguments concerning interannual changes of GPP in China since 2000. To better investigate the interannual variability of GPP and its covariance with climate factors in China, this study adopted a multi‐model analysis based on three GPP models (i.e., Terrestrial Ecosystem Carbon flux model [TEC], Breathing Earth System Simulator model [BESS], and MOD17 GPP model). The results show that annual GPP in China increased by 0.021–0.057 Pg C year −1 from 2000 to 2015 attributable to atmospheric‐CO 2 fertilization effects and favourable climate change, that is, increasing precipitation ( P r ) and temperature ( T a ). However, northern China and southern China had a large difference in the amplitude of these GPP changes; annual GPP increased by 0.017–0.039 Pg C year −1 in northern China but only 0.001–0.018 Pg C year −1 in southern China. Northern China and southern China occupy contrasting climate zones and this contrast produced different interannual variability of GPP through different mechanisms. Northern China has a dry climate with GPP changes sensitive to P r . As a result, more P r along with higher T a in northern China produced the strong uptrend of GPP from 2000 to 2015. In contrast, southern China has a wet climate with its GPP sensitive to solar radiation and T a . For the interval of 2000–2015, decreasing radiation plus drought exerted a negative influence on GPP in southern China. This study highlights the diverse mechanisms in which climate change affects GPP in dry and wet climate zones. A robust multi‐model analysis is preferred to reduce uncertainties arising from a single GPP model and its driving data.

Summary The low temperature and elevated hydrostatic pressure in hadal trenches at water depths below 6000 m render sample collection difficult. Here, in situ hadal water microbial samples were collected from the Mariana Trench and analysed. The hadal microbial communities at different depths were revealed to be consistent and were dominated by heterotrophic Marinimicrobia. Thirty high‐quality metagenome‐assembled genomes (MAGs) were retrieved to represent the major hadal microbes affiliated with 12 prokaryotic phyla. Most of the MAGs were newly reported and probably derived from novel hadal inhabitants as exemplified by a potentially new candidate archaeal phylum in the DPANN superphylum. Metabolic reconstruction indicated that a great number of the MAGs participated in nitrogen and sulfur cycling, in which the nitrification process was driven sequentially by Thaumarchaeota and Nitrospirae and sulfur oxidization by Rhodospirillales in the Alphaproteobacteria class. Moreover, several groups of hadal microbes were revealed to be potential carbon monoxide oxidizers. Metatranscriptomic result highlighted the contribution of Chloroflexi in degrading recalcitrant dissolved organic matter and Marinimicrobia in extracellular protein decomposition. The present work provides an in‐depth view on the hadal microbial communities regarding their endemism and element cycles.

Development of Upwelling during the Sedimentary Period of the Organic-Rich Shales in the Wufeng and Longmaxi Formations of the Upper Yangtze Region and Its Impact on Organic Matter Enrichment - Shao-Ze Zhao; Yong Li; Hua-Jun Min; Tong Wang; Zhou Nie; Zhan-Zhao Zhao; Jia-Zhen Qi; Jin-Cheng Wang; Jia-Peng Wu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019)
This study uses logging data, mineral component content, total organic carbon (TOC) content, and microscopic characteristics of the organic-rich shales in the Wufeng and Longmaxi Formations, as well as data reported by other researchers, to demonstrate that upwelling has played an important role in the organic matter enrichment. The results show that (1) the organic-rich shales of Well N211 in the Upper Yangtze region are located in the Wufeng Formation and the lower Longmaxi Formation, with a burial depth between 2308–2357 m. (2) The organic-rich shales are enriched in biogenic silica. (3) Based on paleogeographic location and characteristics of organisms, this study determines that upwelling occurred during the deposition of the organic-rich shales in the Wufeng and Longmaxi Formations, promoting the enrichment of organic matter in the shales. (4) The upwelling intensity gradually increased from the sedimentary period of the organic-rich shales in the mid-lower Wufeng Formation to the sedimentary period of the Guanyinqiao Member, and then decreased gradually from the sedimentary period of the Guanyinqiao Member to the sedimentary period of the organic-rich shales in the Longmaxi Formation, and leads to the different enrichment of organic matter in the vertical direction. The different developments of upwelling led to the coexistence of both high and low TOC contents in the Guanyinqiao Member along the vertical direction.

Summary Various lineages of ammonia‐oxidizing archaea (AOA) are present in deep waters, but the mechanisms that determine ecotype formation are obscure. We studied 18 high‐quality genomes of the marine group I AOA lineages (alpha, gamma and delta) from the Mariana and Ogasawara trenches. The genomes of alpha AOA resembled each other, while those of gamma and delta lineages were more divergent and had even undergone insertion of some phage genes. The instability of the gamma and delta AOA genomes could be partially due to the loss of DNA polymerase B ( polB) and methyladenine DNA glycosylase ( tag ) genes responsible for the repair of point mutations. The alpha AOA genomes harbour genes encoding a thrombospondin‐like outer membrane structure that probably serves as a barrier to gene flow. Moreover, the gamma and alpha AOA lineages rely on vitamin B 12 ‐independent MetE and B 12 ‐dependent MetH, respectively, for methionine synthesis. The delta AOA genome contains genes involved in uptake of sugar and peptide perhaps for heterotrophic lifestyle. Our study provides insights into co‐occurrence of cladogenesis and anagenesis in the formation of AOA ecotypes that perform differently in nitrogen and carbon cycling in dark oceans.

Aquatic animals promote antibiotic resistance gene dissemination in water via conjugation: Role of different regions within the zebra fish intestinal tract, and impact on fish intestinal microbiota - Jialun Fu; Dong Yang; Min Jin; Weili Liu; Xin Zhao; Chenyu Li; Tianyu Zhao; Jingfeng Wang; Zhixian Gao; Zhiqiang Shen; Zhigang Qiu; Jun‐Wen Li (Molecular Ecology, 2017)
The aqueous environment is one of many reservoirs of antibiotic resistance genes ( ARG s). Fish, as important aquatic animals which possess ideal intestinal niches for bacteria to grow and multiply, may ingest antibiotic resistance bacteria from aqueous environment. The fish gut would be a suitable environment for conjugal gene transfer including those encoding antibiotic resistance. However, little is known in relation to the impact of ingested ARG s or antibiotic resistance bacteria ( ARB ) on gut microbiota. Here, we applied the cultivation method, qPCR , nuclear molecular genetic marker and 16S rDNA amplicon sequencing technologies to develop a plasmid‐mediated ARG transfer model of zebrafish. Furthermore, we aimed to investigate the dissemination of ARG s in microbial communities of zebrafish guts after donors carrying self‐transferring plasmids that encode ARG s were introduced in aquaria. On average, 15% of faecal bacteria obtained ARG s through RP 4‐mediated conjugal transfer. The hindgut was the most important intestinal region supporting ARG dissemination, with concentrations of donor and transconjugant cells almost 25 times higher than those of other intestinal segments. Furthermore, in the hindgut where conjugal transfer occurred most actively, there was remarkable upregulation of the mRNA expression of the RP 4 plasmid regulatory genes, trbBp and trfAp . Exogenous bacteria seem to alter bacterial communities by increasing Escherichia and Bacteroides species, while decreasing Aeromonas compared with control groups. We identified the composition of transconjugants and abundance of both cultivable and uncultivable bacteria (the latter accounted for 90.4%–97.2% of total transconjugants). Our study suggests that aquatic animal guts contribute to the spread of ARG s in water environments.
