Corticosterone Can Be an Essential Stress Index in Channel Catfish (Ictalurus punctatus) - Kang Xiao; Xi Wang; Wen-Bin Liu; Ding-Dong Zhang; Xiang-Fei Li; Chun-Nuan Zhang; Wei-Hua Chen; Kenneth Prudence Abasubong; Guang-Zhen Jiang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Although cortisol is considered the main glucocorticoid involved in regulating stress in fish by elevating the serum glucose, the presence of serum corticosterone and whether its level can be used as an indicator for fish stress activation and reflect the degree of fish stress remains to be determined. To comprehensively and accurately evaluate the performance of two glucocorticoids after stress, in this study, seven of the most common stressors (ammonia nitrogen, high-temperature, acid, alkali, Aeromonas hydrophila, and salinity) in aquaculture were selected. The levels of serum corticosterone, cortisol, and glucose were detected within 48 h, and then the dynamic changes were analyzed. In addition, the kidneys were collected to detect the expression of corresponding proteins involved in corticosterone and cortisol synthesis (3 β-HSD and CYP17A1) for further exploration. From the results obtained, the content of serum corticosterone was about 100 times higher than that of cortisol, and it was found that corticosterone and cortisol showed different dynamic changes within 48 h among the seven kinds of stress. In the subsequent detection of glucose, it was found that the dynamic shift in glucose was not consistent with the dynamic changes of corticosterone or cortisol entirely but seemed to be caused by the combination of the two. In the follow-up protein expression detection, we found that corticosterone seemed to respond to stress earlier. Therefore, it is concluded that the responses of corticosterone and cortisol to stress are independent, corticosterone may be more sensitive in the current seven acute stresses, and then they regulate glucose together to resist stress. The study aimed to fill the vacancy of corticosterone in fish research and provide a reference for the complete evaluation of fish stress degree.

Exogenous Glutathione Alleviates Cadmium Toxicity in Wheat by Influencing the Absorption and Translocation of Cadmium - Ge-Zi Li; Shi-Juan Chen; Na-Ying Li; Ying-Ying Wang; Guo-Zhang Kang (Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2021)
Cadmium (Cd), a toxic heavy metal, is harmful to plants and human health. Glutathione (GSH) could alleviate Cd toxicity of plant species, whereas its mechanism responsible for wheat remains poorly understood. Here, we found that exogenous GSH application significantly increased the fresh and dry weight, root elongation, chlorophyll contents, while decreased the contents of malondialdehyde (MDA) and GSH, and translocation factor of Cd compared with Cd treatment. Moreover, GSH application significantly increased activities of antioxidant enzymes and expression of related genes, which involved in GSH synthesis, especially in roots. In addition, we found that GSH application suppressed Cd-induced expression of metal transporter genes TaNramp1 , TaNramp5 , TaHMA2 , TaHMA3 , TaLCT1 and TaIRT2 in roots. Taken together, our results suggested that GSH could alleviate Cd toxicity in wheat by increasing GSH synthesis gene expression or suppressing Cd transporter genes expression, and further affecting Cd uptake and translocation in wheat plants.

Modes of exploitation of atmospheric water resources in the Qinghai–Tibet plateau - Fang‐Fang Li; Kang Zhao; Hou‐Liang Lu; Guang‐Qian Wang; Jun Qiu (International Journal of Climatology, 2021)
Known as “China's Water Tower,” the Qinghai–Tibet Plateau (QTP) becomes warm and humid in the short term but faces drought in the long term because of global climate change. Atmospheric water resources seem to be the only choice in the QTP region to alleviate drought conditions. Analysis of water vapour distribution and evaluation of exploitation modes of atmospheric water resources are carried out in this study. Different exploitation modes of atmospheric water resources including routine, selective, and emergency‐oriented exploitation are distinguished using water vapour budget and its distribution entropy. Zoning of the QTP indicates that routine exploitation, that is, long‐term, continuous, and fixed‐point exploitation, can only be carried out in its eastern part, while the middle and western parts are suitable for selective exploitation. Such entropy‐based assessment and zoning can be used as a reference for the exploitation of atmospheric water in the QTP in the future. Furthermore, the proposed zoning criteria can be used to estimate the exploitability of atmospheric water resources.

Spatial and temporal characteristics of atmospheric water vapour content and its relationship with precipitation conversion in China during 1980–2016 - Olusola O. Ayantobo; Jiahua Wei; Beiming Kang; Tiejian Li; Guangqian Wang (International Journal of Climatology, 2021)
Atmospheric precipitable water ( PW ) is the basis of precipitation ( P ) formation, and the spatial difference between them is one of the focus of water resources research. Based on daily P from 552 meteorological stations and four reanalysis datasets during 1980–2016, the spatial–temporal pattern of PW and precipitation conversion rate ( PWCR ) in China are investigated using the whole layer atmospheric PW calculation formula, univariate linear regression, and inverse distance weighting. Results showed that ERA‐Interim reanalysis seems to match the magnitude and pattern of P over China with small regional differences. At daily scale, an increase (decrease) in P was connected with an increase (decrease) of PW in most regions, and the temporal change showed that PW was highest in summer and lowest in winter. Across China, the mean daily PW for CFSR, ERA‐Interim, JRA 55, and NCEP‐1 varied between 41.18–48.43 mm, 39.02–43.13 mm, 37.41–41.79 mm, and 43.06–48.33 mm, respectively in summer and between 11.67–13.79 mm, 10.21–11.87 mm, 9.96–11.83 mm, 11.92–13.73 mm in winter. The spatial pattern of PW showed increased moisture over the southwest, with a maximum positive trend of about 0.25 mm per day, particularly over the Tibet Plateau. Moreover, summer and autumn had the highest and lowest PWCR , respectively. During summer, PWCR for CFSR, ERA‐Interim, JRA 55 and NCEP‐1 ranged between 8.3–11.9%, 8.1–9.7%, 10.3–11.7% and 9.4–14.1%, while in autumn, 6.4–9.8%, 5.9–7.7%, 7.1–9.5%, and 8.1–12.3% were reported, respectively. Therefore, the potential of P arising from PW was great in summer. The PWCR had a declining trend from east to west and from south to north in space and the regional fluctuation was large, making the regional development potential of atmospheric water resources obvious. These results that lead to a better understanding of water vapour conversion over China will help to rationally develop and utilize atmospheric water resources.

Mechanisms of niche‐neutrality balancing can drive the assembling of microbial community - Lixiao Wang; Maozhen Han; Xi Li; Bingbing Yu; Huading Wang; Amjed Ginawi; Kang Ning; Yunjun Yan (Molecular Ecology, 2021)
One hotspot of present community ecology is to uncover the mechanisms of community succession. In this study, two popular concepts, niche‐neutrality dynamic balancing and co‐occurrence network analysis, were integrated to investigate the dispersal dynamics of microbial communities in a freshwater river continuum in subtropical China. Results showed that when habitat conditions were mild and appropriate, such as in the clean upstream river, free of heavy pollution or long‐lasting extreme disturbances, stochastic processes could increase species diversities, and organize communities into relatively loosely linked and stable networks with higher modularity and more modules. However, when conditions became degraded under heavy pollution, the influence of neutrality diminished, and niche‐based selection imposed more constraints on communities and guided the assembling processes in certain directions: depleting species richness, strengthening interspecies connections and breaking boundaries of modules. Consequently, communities became more sensitive to fluctuations so as to deal with the harsh conditions efficiently. Another interesting finding was that, both as keystone taxa of communities, module hubs were mostly neutrally distributed generalists with high abundances, and were beneficial to many related operational taxonomic units. In contrast, connectors were less abundant and their distributions were more subjected to the environments. Therefore, connectors were probably responsible for the information transmission between microbial communities and environments, as well as between different modules, and thus could restrict the dispersal of microbes and guide the direction of community assembly.

Using Composite Phenotypes to Reveal Hidden Physiological Heterogeneity in High-Altitude Acclimatization in a Chinese Han Longitudinal Cohort - Yi Li; Yanyun Ma; Kun Wang; Menghan Zhang; Yi Wang; Xiaoyu Liu; Meng Hao; Xianhong Yin; Meng Liang; Hui Zhang; Xiaofeng Wang; Xingdong Chen; et al. (Phenomics, 2021)
Altitude acclimatization is a human physiological process of adjusting to the decreased oxygen availability. Since several physiological processes are involved and their correlations are complicated, the analyses of single traits are insufficient in revealing the complex mechanism of high-altitude acclimatization. In this study, we examined these physiological responses as the composite phenotypes that are represented by a linear combination of physiological traits. We developed a strategy that combines both spectral clustering and partial least squares path modeling (PLSPM) to define composite phenotypes based on a cohort study of 883 Chinese Han males. In addition, we captured 14 composite phenotypes from 28 physiological traits of high-altitude acclimatization. Using these composite phenotypes, we applied k-means clustering to reveal hidden population physiological heterogeneity in high-altitude acclimatization. Furthermore, we employed multivariate linear regression to systematically model (Models 1 and 2) oxygen saturation (SpO 2 ) changes in high-altitude acclimatization and evaluated model fitness performance. Composite phenotypes based on Model 2 fit better than single trait-based Model 1 in all measurement indices. This new strategy of using composite phenotypes may be potentially employed as a general strategy for complex traits research such as genetic loci discovery and analyses of phenomics.

Freshwater capture fisheries are globally essential for food security and aquatic biodiversity conservation. The Yangtze River Basin is the third longest and one of the most human‐influenced drainage basins worldwide. Since the founding of P. R. China in 1949, this large river system has suffered increasing human perturbation and its sustainable development is now severely challenged. Meta‐analysis showed that Yangtze River fisheries have experienced an extraordinary process of utilization–over‐exploitation–protection during the past 70 years, to an extent that other globally important rivers may never have encountered. Its fisheries appear to have collapsed over the past four decades, with yield decreasing to only 25% of an historical peak of 400,000 metric tonnes in the late 1950s. Endemic, migratory and rare fishes have been highly threatened with obvious changes in fish community structure and aquatic biodiversity. Anthropogenic activities, including impoundment of water in dams, discharge of pollutants and riverine modification for vessel navigation, have caused large decreases in fisheries yields. Projections from surplus production modelling showed potential for improvement under fishing ban scenarios, but without any prospect for full recovery to historical stock status. This study revealed that the change in fisheries resources was dominated by the social–ecological watershed system, and an integrated approach to river basin management is warranted. Better management of freshwater ecosystems to integrate food security with biodiversity conservation is urgently needed throughout the world, and the changes evident in the Yangtze River fish populations can serve as an informative global reference.

Fungal endophytes promote the accumulation of Amaryllidaceae alkaloids in Lycoris radiata - Jiayu Zhou; Zhilin Liu; Songfeng Wang; Jie Li; Yikui Li; Wei‐Kang Chen; Ren Wang (Environmental Microbiology, 2020)
Summary Lycoris radiata is a main source of Amaryllidaceae alkaloids; however, the low content of these alkaloids in planta remains a limit to their pharmaceutical development and utilization. The accumulation of secondary metabolites can be enhanced in plants inoculated with fungal endophytes. In this study, we analysed the diversity of culturable fungal endophytes in different organs of L . radiata . Then, by analysing the correlation between the detectable rate of each fungal species and the content of each tested alkaloid, we proposed several fungal candidates implicated in the increase of alkaloid accumulation. This was verified by inoculating these candidates to L . radiata plants. Based on the results of two independent experiments conducted in May 2018 and October 2019, the individual inoculation of nine fungal endophytes significantly increased the total content of the tested alkaloids in the entire L . radiata plants. This is the first study in L . radiata to show that fungal endophytes are able to improve the accumulation of various alkaloids. Therefore, our results provide insights into a better understanding of interactions between plants and fungal endophytes and suggest an effective strategy for enhancing the alkaloid content in the cultivation of L . radiata .

Towards understanding the biosynthetic pathway for ustilaginoidin mycotoxins in Ustilaginoidea virens - Yuejiao Li; Ming Wang; Zhaohui Liu; Kang Zhang; Fuhao Cui; Wenxian Sun (Environmental Microbiology, 2019)
Summary Ustilaginoidins, toxic to plants, animals and human, are one of major types of mycotoxins produced by Ustilaginoidea virens . In this study, a gene cluster containing the polyketide synthase gene UvPKS1 was analysed via gene replacement and biochemical studies to determine ustilaginoidin biosynthetic pathway in U. virens . UvPKS1 was first proven to be responsible for the first step of ustilaginoidin biosynthesis, since neither ustilaginoidin derivatives nor intermediates were produced when UvPKS1 was deleted. Replacement of ugsO greatly reduced ustilaginoidin production but increased the ratios of dehydrogenated/hydrogenated ustilagioidin derivatives. The enhanced growth rate of the Δ ugsO mutant indicates that accumulation of certain ustilaginoidin derivatives may adversely affect mycelial growth in U. virens . Deletion of ugsT encoding a putative MFS transporter disrupted the ability to generate ustilaginoidins. The ustilaginoidin derivatives produced in the Δ ugsJ mutant all lack C3‐methyl, indicating that UgsJ is responsible for C3‐methylation. Only monomeric intermediates, such as 3‐methyl‐dihydro‐nor‐rubrofusarin, but no ustilaginoidin derivatives were generated in the Δ ugsL mutant, indicating that UgsL is responsible for the dimerization of nor‐rubrofusarin derivatives to produce ustilaginoidins. However, ugsR2 deletion had no dramatic effect on ustilaginoidin biosynthesis. Together, biochemical analyses with bioinformatics and chemoinformatics uncover a multiple‐step enzyme‐catalysed pathway for ustilaginoidin biosynthesis in U. virens .

The key gluconeogenic gene PCK1 is crucial for virulence of Botrytis cinerea via initiating its conidial germination and host penetration - Jian‐Kang Liu; Hao‐Wu Chang; Yue Liu; Yu (Haity) Qin; Yu‐Han Ding; Lan Wang; Yue Zhao; Ming‐Zhe Zhang; Sheng‐Nan Cao; Le‐Tao Li; Wei Liu; Gui‐Hua Li; et al. (Environmental Microbiology, 2018)
Summary The process of initiation of host invasion and survival of some foliar phytopathogenic fungi in the absence of external nutrients on host leaf surfaces remains obscure. Here, we demonstrate that gluconeogenesis plays an important role in the process and nutrient‐starvation adaptation before the pathogen host invasion. Deletion of phosphoenolpyruvate c arboxy k inase gene BcPCK1 in gluconeogenesis in Botrytis cinerea , the causative agent of grey mould, resulted in the failure of the Δ Bcpck1 mutant conidia to germinate on hard and hydrophobic surface and penetrate host cells in the absence of glucose, reduction in conidiation and slow conidium germination in a nutrient‐rich medium. The wild‐type and Δ Bcpck1 conidia germinate similarly in the presence of glucose (higher concentration) as the sole carbon source. Conidial glucose‐content should reach a threshold level to initiate germination and host penetration. Infection structure formation by the mutants displayed a glucose‐dependent fashion, which corresponded to the mutant virulence reduction. Exogenous glucose or complementation of BcPCK1 completely rescued all the developmental and virulence defects of the mutants. Our findings demonstrate that BcPCK1 plays a crucial role in B. cinerea pathogenic growth and virulence, and provide new insights into gluconeogenesis mediating pathogenesis of plant fungal pathogens via initiation of conidial germination and host penetration.

Tornado climatology of China - Jiayi Chen; Xuhui Cai; Hongyu Wang; Ling Kang; Hongshen Zhang; Yu Song; Hao Zhu; Wei Zheng; Fengju Li (International Journal of Climatology, 2018)
A tornado climatology in China was derived based on a recently completed data set with details on 4763 tornadoes in the period 1948–2012. The tornadoes were rated on the Fujita scale, and design basis tornado wind speeds were estimated. Annual tornadoes were estimated 108 (±44) in China, among which 0–4 exceed F3 on the Fujita scale. Three strongest tornadoes in the data set were rated F4. Assessing from frequency distribution of ratings, tornadoes in China could be mostly of the non‐supercell type. In average of all the country, most tornadoes occur in summer (June–August, about 64%). The peak month is July (31%). Geographically, the majority of tornadoes is distributed in eastern China, with the most frequent tornado occurrence being in the coastal provinces. There are southern type and northern type of tornado occurrence in eastern China. The former peaks in spring, while the latter peaks in summer. Two belts of design basis tornado wind speeds higher than 70 m s −1 were identified (on probability of 10 −7 per year). One extends approximately along the coastline of China from south to north, while the other crosses this belt from east to west, approximately upstream of the Yangtze River. The Yangtze River Delta and Pearl River Delta have design basis tornado wind speeds higher than 90 m s −1 , with maxima of 105 and 95 m s −1 , respectively. However, by transferring into the enhanced Fujita scale, the wind speed is much lower, with the corresponding maxima being 82 and 76 m s −1 respectively.

PST ha5a23, a candidate effector from the obligate biotrophic pathogen P uccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici , is involved in plant defense suppression and rust pathogenicity - Yulin Cheng; Kuan Wu; Juanni Yao; Shumin Li; Xiaojie Wang; Lili Huang; Zhensheng Kang (Environmental Microbiology, 2017)
Summary During the infection of host plants, pathogens can deliver virulence‐associated ‘effector’ proteins to promote plant susceptibility. However, little is known about effector function in the obligate biotrophic pathogen Puccinia striiformis f. sp. tritici ( Pst ) that is an important fungal pathogen in wheat production worldwide. Here, they report their findings on an in planta highly induced candidate effector from Pst , PSTha5a23. The PSTha5a23 gene is unique to Pst and shows a low level of intra‐species polymorphism. It has a functional N‐terminal signal peptide and is translocated to the host cytoplasm after infection. Overexpression of PSTha5a23 in Nicotiana benthamiana was found to suppress the programmed cell death triggered by BAX, PAMP‐INF1 and two resistance‐related mitogen‐activated protein kinases (MKK1 and NPK1). Overexpression of PSTha5a23 in wheat also suppressed pattern‐triggered immunity (PTI)‐associated callose deposition. In addition, silencing of PSTha5a23 did not change Pst virulence phenotypes; however, overexpression of PSTha5a23 significantly enhanced Pst virulence in wheat. These results indicate that the Pst candidate effector PSTha5a23 plays an important role in plant defense suppression and rust pathogenicity, and also highlight the utility of gene overexpression in plants as a tool for studying effectors from obligate biotrophic pathogens.
