Megafaunal Community Structure From the Abyssal to Hadal Zone in the Yap Trench - Dongsheng Zhang; Yadong Zhou; Jichao Yang; Thomas Linley; Ruiyan Zhang; Bo Lu; Peng Xu; Chengcheng Shen; Shiquan Lin; Yueyun Wang; Dong Sun; Xiaogu Wang; et al. (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Hadal trenches remain one of the unexplored ocean ecosystems due to the challenges of sampling at great depths. It is still unclear how a faunal community changes from the abyssal to the hadal zone, and which environmental variables are the key impacting factors. In this study, nine dives of the Human Occupied Vehicle (HOV) “ JIAOLONG ” were conducted from abyssal to hadal depths (4,435–6,796 m) in the Yap Trench on the southeastern boundary of the Philippine Sea Plate in the western Pacific, divided into 48,200 m video transects, to describe the megafaunal communities and reveal their relationship with environmental factors. A total of 1,171 megafauna organisms was recorded, 80 morphospecies (msps) from 8 phyla were identified based on the video data, most of which were reported for the first time in the Yap Trench. Arthropoda was the most abundant phylum and Echinodermata was the most diverse phylum of the megafaunal community. The faunal abundance increased with depth, whereas the Shannon diversity index decreased with depth. Cluster analysis suggested seven assemblages, with five abyssal groups, one mixed group, and one hadal dominant group. Although megafaunal communities changed gradually from abyssal zone to hadal zone, both PERMANOVA and PERMDISP analyses revealed that the communities are significantly different between abyssal zone and hadal zone, indicating 6,000 m as the boundary between the two depth zones. Depth, substrate, slope, and latitude were identified as four important environmental factors with significant influence on megafaunal community structure. This study proposed a transition pattern from the abyssal to hadal zone in the Yap Trench, highlighted the importance of habitat heterogeneity in structuring megafaunal community in a hadal trench.

Highly enriched N‐containing organic molecules of Synechococcus lysates and their rapid transformation by heterotrophic bacteria - Qiang Zheng; Wenxin Lin; Yu Wang; Yunyun Li; Chen He; Yuan Shen; Weidong Guo; Quan Shi; Nianzhi Jiao (Limnology and Oceanography, 2021)
Phytoplankton are major contributors of labile dissolved organic matter to marine euphotic zone ecosystems. Viral‐mediated phytoplankton lysis releases a considerable amount of bioavailable cellular contents and facilitates localized heterotrophic bacterial growth. The rapid turnover times of this labile organic matter renders it difficult to trace their transformation within natural environments. In the present study, we used a model phototroph‐heterotroph coculture system to investigate the organic molecular variation during cyanophage‐induced Synechococcus lysis and post‐lysis periods using fluorescence spectroscopy and ultrahigh resolution mass spectrometry analyses. Approximately 80% of the Synechococcus lysates were respired to carbon dioxide within 2 days coupled to rapid regeneration of inorganic nutrients. Five fluorescent dissolved organic matter components were detected in the incubations including four humic‐like and one protein‐like components, and their abundances varied markedly with the succession of the viral lysis process. Viral lysis promoted the transformation of Synechococcus biomass to dissolved organic matter, and heterotrophic bacterial metabolism facilitated the transformation of organic molecules from relatively high (avg. ~ 430 Da) to low (avg. ~ 360 Da) molecular weight, corresponding to variation in their bioavailability. The Synechococcus ‐derived organic matter was highly enriched in N‐containing organic molecules. Identified metabolites within the cultures primarily comprised amino acids or oligopeptides and other low‐molecular‐weight organic acids, carbohydrates, nucleotides, lipids, biogenic amines, and porphyrins. Among these, oligopeptides, nucleotides, and lipid compounds significantly increased with viral lysis. These results provide insight into biogeochemical cycling mediated by viral shunts in oceans, thus deepening our understanding of microbial food webs at the molecular level.

The involvement of α‐proteobacteria Phenylobacterium in maintaining the dominance of toxic Microcystis blooms in Lake Taihu, China - Jun Zuo; Lili Hu; Wei Shen; Jiaying Zeng; Lin Li; Lirong Song; Nanqin Gan (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary Lake Taihu in China has suffered serious harmful cyanobacterial blooms for decades. The algal blooms threaten the ecological sustainability, drinking water safety, and human health. Although the roles of abiotic factors (such as water temperature and nutrient loading) in promoting Microcystis blooms have been well studied, the importance of biotic factors (e.g. bacterial community) in promoting and meditating Microcystis blooms remains unclear. In this study, we investigated the ecological dynamics of bacterial community, the ratio of toxic Microcystis , as well as microcystin in Lake Taihu. High‐throughput 16S rRNA sequencing and principal component analysis (PCA) revealed that the bacteria community compositions (BCCs) clustered into three groups, the partitioning of which corresponded to that of groups according to the toxic profiles (the ratio of toxic Microcystis to total Microcystis , and the microcystin concentrations) of the samples. Further Spearman's correlation network showed that the α‐proteobacteria Phenylobacterium strongly positively correlated with the toxic profiles. Subsequent laboratory chemostats experiments demonstrated that three Phenylobacterium strains promoted the dominance of the toxic Microcystis aeruginosa PCC7806 when co‐culturing with the non‐toxic PCC7806 mcyB − mutant. Taken together, our data suggested that the α‐proteobacteria Phenylobacterium may play a vital role in the maintenance of toxic Microcystis dominance in Lake Taihu.

COMT-Val158Met polymorphism modulates antipsychotic effects on auditory verbal hallucinations and temporal lobe gray matter volumes in healthy individuals—symptom relief accompanied by worrisome volume reductions - Chuanjun Zhuo; Langlang Cheng; Gongying Li; Yong Xu; Rixing Jing; Shen Li; Li Zhang; Xiaodong Lin; Chunhua Zhou (Brain Imaging and Behavior, 2020)
Investigation of auditory verbal hallucinations (AVHs) in schizophrenics is complicated by psychiatric symptoms. Investigating healthy individuals with AVHs (H-AVHs) can obviate such confounding factors. The objective of this study was to explore the effects of antipsychotic treatment on AVHs and gray matter volumes (GMVs) in H-AVH subjects and whether such are effects are influenced by COMT - Val158Met genotype. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) and genotyping studies were completed for 42 H-AVH subjects and 42 well-matched healthy controls (HCs). COMT-Met/Met homozygotes (158th codon) were identified as COMT-Met genotype; COMT-Met/Val heterozygotes and COMT-Val/Val homozygotes were identified as COMT-Val genotype. Data were compared across groups (H-AVH vs. HC, and between genotypes) with two-sample t-tests. The H-AVH COMT-Met group showed a stronger response to antipsychotic treatment than the H-AVH COMT-Val group ( p < 0.001). Both H-AVH genotype groups exhibited temporal lobe GMV reductions after treatment, and relative to their respective genotype-matched HC groups. Antipsychotic treatment effects in H-AVH subjects were influenced by COMT-Val158Met genotype and associated with widespread GMV reductions. These findings provide clues for further exploration of treatment targets for AVHs. Treatment associated GMV reductions, however, raise concerns about use of antipsychotics in H-AVH subjects.

Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells combine with normothermic machine perfusion to improve rat donor liver quality—the important role of hepatic microcirculation in donation after circulatory death - Liu Yang; Huan Cao; Dong Sun; Bin Hou; Ling Lin; Zhong-Yang Shen; Hong-Li Song (Cell and Tissue Research, 2020)
Donation after circulatory death (DCD) can expand the donor pool effectively. A gap remains in outcome between DCD livers and living donor livers, warranting improved DCD liver quality and urgent resolution. Bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMMSCs) can regulate immunity, participate in the anti-inflammatory response, and secrete cytokines. We investigated the effect of BMMSCs combined with normothermic machine perfusion (NMP) on DCD liver quality, and the role of microcirculation therein. Rat thoracic aortas were clipped to obtain DCD livers, and a rat NMP system was established. The DCD livers were grouped by preservation method: normal, static cold storage (SCS), NMP (P), and BMMSCs plus NMP (BP); storage time was up to 8 h. Liver function in outflow perfusate was detected by biochemical methods; liver tissue histopathology was observed by hematoxylin–eosin staining; hepatocyte ultrastructure was observed by transmission electron microscopy; hepatocyte apoptosis was detected by terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase dUTP nick end labeling; liver microcirculation–related indicators were detected by immunofluorescence, immunohistochemistry, Western blotting, and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay. Compared with SCS, P and BP significantly improved liver function and liver histological damage, reduced hepatocyte apoptosis, and repaired hepatocyte mitochondrial damage after 6 h in vitro. BP also significantly inhibited intrahepatic macrophage activation and intercellular adhesion, improved endothelial damage, and significantly improved endothelin 1–nitric oxide balance and microcirculation perfusion. In conclusion, BP can improve DCD liver microcirculation and quality. The mechanism may be the improvement of improve hepatic sinusoidal endothelial injury and microcirculation perfusion by inhibiting macrophage activation and intercellular adhesion.

A chemically triggered transition from conflict to cooperation in burying beetles - Bo‐Fei Chen; Mark Liu; Dustin R. Rubenstein; Syuan‐Jyun Sun; Jian‐Nan Liu; Yu‐Heng Lin; Sheng‐Feng Shen (Ecology Letters, 2020)
Although interspecific competition has long been recognised as a major driver of trait divergence and adaptive evolution, relatively little effort has focused on how it influences the evolution of intraspecific cooperation. Here we identify the mechanism by which the perceived pressure of interspecific competition influences the transition from intraspecific conflict to cooperation in a facultative cooperatively breeding species, the Asian burying beetle Nicrophorus nepalensis . We not only found that beetles are more cooperative at carcasses when blowfly maggots have begun to digest the tissue, but that this social cooperation appears to be triggered by a single chemical cue – dimethyl disulfide (DMDS) – emitted from carcasses consumed by blowflies, but not from control carcasses lacking blowflies. Our results provide experimental evidence that interspecific competition promotes the transition from intraspecific conflict to cooperation in N. nepalensis via a surprisingly simple social chemical cue that is a reliable indicator of resource competition between species.

Severe haze pollution that occurred in January 2014 in Wuhan was investigated. The factors leading to Wuhan’s PM 2.5 pollution and the characteristics and formation mechanism were found to be significantly different from other megacities, like Beijing. Both the growth rates and decline rates of PM 2.5 concentrations in Wuhan were lower than those in Beijing, but the monthly PM 2.5 value was approximately twice that in Beijing. Furthermore, the sharp increases of PM 2.5 concentrations were often accompanied by strong winds. A high-precision modeling system with an online source-tagged method was established to explore the formation mechanism of five haze episodes. The long-range transport of the polluted air masses from the North China Plain (NCP) was the main factor leading to the sharp increases of PM 2.5 concentrations in Wuhan, which contributed 53.4% of the monthly PM 2.5 concentrations and 38.5% of polluted days. Furthermore, the change in meteorological conditions such as weakened winds and stable weather conditions led to the accumulation of air pollutants in Wuhan after the long-range transport. The contribution from Wuhan and surrounding cities to the PM 2.5 concentrations was determined to be 67.4% during this period. Under the complex regional transport of pollutants from surrounding cities, the NCP, East China, and South China, the five episodes resulted in 30 haze days in Wuhan. The findings reveal important roles played by transregional and intercity transport in haze formation in Wuhan.

We used the cytochrome oxidase subunit I ( coI ) gene DNA to barcode 117 endemic Gulf and cosmopolitan Indo–West Pacific fish species belonging to 54 families and 13 orders. Novel DNA barcodes were provided for 18 fish species ( Trachinocephalus sp., Nematalosa sp., Herklotsichthys lossei , Upeneus doriae , Trachurus indicus , Apogonichthyoides taeniatus , Verulux cypselurus , Favonigobius sp., Suezichthus gracilis , Sillago sp., Brachirus orientalis , Pegusa sp., Lepidotrigla bispinosa , Lepidotrigla sp., Grammoplites suppositus , Hippichthys sp., Paramonacanthus sp. and Triacanthus sp.). The species delimitation analysis, conducted with Poisson tree processes– Bayesian PTP (PTP–bPTP) and nucleotide‐divergence‐threshold (NDT) models), found 137 and 119 entities respectively. Overall, NDT method, neighbour‐joining species tree and the prior taxonomic assessment provided similar results. Among the 54 families considered, only 10 (Ariommatidae, Ephippidae, Leiognathidae, Nemipteridae, Plotosidae, Pomacanthidae, Pomacentridae, Priacanthidae and Rachycentridae) showed the occurrence of molecular diagnostic pure characters. The DNA barcoding database developed during this study will help ichthyologists to identify and resolve the taxonomic ambiguities they may encounter with the fishes occurring in The Gulf and throughout the region.

A 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaryl‐CoA synthase‐based probe for the discovery of the acyltransferase‐less type I polyketide synthases - Haoyu Liang; Lin Jiang; Qiyun Jiang; Jie Shi; Jingxi Xiang; Xiaohui Yan; Xiangcheng Zhu; Lixing Zhao; Ben Shen; Yanwen Duan; Yong Huang (Environmental Microbiology, 2019)
Summary Acyltransferase (AT)‐less type I polyketide synthases (PKSs) produce complex natural products due to the presence of many unique tailoring enzymes. The 3‐hydroxy‐3‐methylglutaryl coenzyme A synthases (HCSs) are responsible for β ‐alkylation of the growing polyketide intermediates in AT‐less type I PKSs. In this study, we discovered a large group of HCSs, closely associated with the characterized and orphan AT‐less type I PKSs through in silico genome mining, sequence and genome neighbourhood network analyses. Using HCS‐based probes, the survey of 1207 in‐house strains and 18 soil samples from different geographic locations revealed the vast diversity of HCS‐containing AT‐less type I PKSs. The presence of HCSs in many AT‐less type I PKSs suggests their co‐evolutionary relationship. This study provides a new probe to study the abundance and diversity of AT‐less type I PKSs in the environment and microbial strain collections. Our study should inspire future efforts to discover new polyketide natural products from AT‐less type I PKSs.

Underestimated ecosystem carbon turnover time and sequestration under the steady state assumption: A perspective from long‐term data assimilation - Rong Ge; Honglin He; Xiaoli Ren; Li Zhang; Guirui Yu; T. Luke Smallman; Tao Zhou; Shi‐Yong Yu; Yiqi Luo; Zongqiang Xie; Silong Wang; Huimin Wang; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2019)
It is critical to accurately estimate carbon (C) turnover time as it dominates the uncertainty in ecosystem C sinks and their response to future climate change. In the absence of direct observations of ecosystem C losses, C turnover times are commonly estimated under the steady state assumption ( SSA ), which has been applied across a large range of temporal and spatial scales including many at which the validity of the assumption is likely to be violated. However, the errors associated with improperly applying SSA to estimate C turnover time and its covariance with climate as well as ecosystem C sequestrations have yet to be fully quantified. Here, we developed a novel model‐data fusion framework and systematically analyzed the SSA ‐induced biases using time‐series data collected from 10 permanent forest plots in the eastern China monsoon region. The results showed that (a) the SSA significantly underestimated mean turnover times ( MTT s) by 29%, thereby leading to a 4.83‐fold underestimation of the net ecosystem productivity ( NEP ) in these forest ecosystems, a major C sink globally; (b) the SSA ‐induced bias in MTT and NEP correlates negatively with forest age, which provides a significant caveat for applying the SSA to young‐aged ecosystems; and (c) the sensitivity of MTT to temperature and precipitation was 22% and 42% lower, respectively, under the SSA . Thus, under the expected climate change, spatiotemporal changes in MTT are likely to be underestimated, thereby resulting in large errors in the variability of predicted global NEP . With the development of observation technology and the accumulation of spatiotemporal data, we suggest estimating MTT s at the disequilibrium state via long‐term data assimilation, thereby effectively reducing the uncertainty in ecosystem C sequestration estimations and providing a better understanding of regional or global C cycle dynamics and C‐climate feedback.

Direct and indirect effects of climate on richness drive the latitudinal diversity gradient in forest trees - Chengjin Chu; James A. Lutz; Kamil Král; Tomáš Vrška; Xue Yin; Jonathan A. Myers; Iveren Abiem; Alfonso Alonso; Norm Bourg; David F.R.P. Burslem; Min Cao; Hazel Chapman; et al. (Ecology Letters, 2019)
Climate is widely recognised as an important determinant of the latitudinal diversity gradient. However, most existing studies make no distinction between direct and indirect effects of climate, which substantially hinders our understanding of how climate constrains biodiversity globally. Using data from 35 large forest plots, we test hypothesised relationships amongst climate, topography, forest structural attributes (stem abundance, tree size variation and stand basal area) and tree species richness to better understand drivers of latitudinal tree diversity patterns. Climate influences tree richness both directly, with more species in warm, moist, aseasonal climates and indirectly, with more species at higher stem abundance. These results imply direct limitation of species diversity by climatic stress and more rapid (co‐)evolution and narrower niche partitioning in warm climates. They also support the idea that increased numbers of individuals associated with high primary productivity are partitioned to support a greater number of species.

In this work, a new genus, Protolitonotus gen. n., and two new species, Protolitonotus magnus sp. n. and Protolitonotus longus sp. n., were studied. Furthermore, 19 novel nucleotide sequences of SSU rDNA , LSU rDNA and ITS 1‐5.8S‐ ITS 2 were collected to determine the phylogenetic relationships and systematic positions of the pleurostomatid ciliates in this study. Based on both molecular and morphological data, the results demonstrated that: (i) as disclosed by the sequence analysis of SSU rDNA , LSU rDNA and ITS 1‐5.8S‐ ITS 2, Protolitonotus gen. n. is sister to all other pleurostomatids and thus represents an independent lineage and a separate family, Protolitonotidae fam. n., which is defined by the presence of a semi‐suture formed by the right somatic kineties near the dorsal margin of the body; (ii) the families Litonotidae and Kentrophyllidae are both monophyletic based on both SSU rDNA and LSU rDNA sequences, whereas Amphileptidae are non‐monophyletic in trees inferred from SSU rDNA sequences; and (iii) the genera Loxophyllum and Kentrophyllum are both monophyletic, whereas Litonotus is non‐monophyletic based on SSU rDNA analyses. ITS 1‐5.8S‐ ITS 2 sequence data were used for the phylogenetic analyses of pleurostomatids for the first time; however, species relationships were less well resolved than in the SSU rDNA and LSU rDNA trees. In addition, a major revision to the classification of the order Pleurostomatida is suggested and a key to its families and genera is provided.

Soil diazotrophs play important roles in ecosystem functioning by converting atmospheric N 2 into biologically available ammonium. However, the diversity and distribution of soil diazotrophic communities in different forests and whether they follow biogeographic patterns similar to macroorganisms still remain unclear. By sequencing nifH gene amplicons, we surveyed the diversity, structure and biogeographic patterns of soil diazotrophic communities across six North American forests (126 nested samples). Our results showed that each forest harboured markedly different soil diazotrophic communities and that these communities followed traditional biogeographic patterns similar to plant and animal communities, including the taxa–area relationship ( TAR ) and latitudinal diversity gradient. Significantly higher community diversity and lower microbial spatial turnover rates (i.e. z ‐values) were found for rainforests (~0.06) than temperate forests (~0.1). The gradient pattern of TAR s and community diversity was strongly correlated ( r 2 > 0.5) with latitude, annual mean temperature, plant species richness and precipitation, and weakly correlated ( r 2 pH and soil moisture. This study suggests that even microbial subcommunities (e.g. soil diazotrophs) follow general biogeographic patterns (e.g. TAR , latitudinal diversity gradient), and indicates that the metabolic theory of ecology and habitat heterogeneity may be the major underlying ecological mechanisms shaping the biogeographic patterns of soil diazotrophic communities.
