T4 ‐like myovirus community shaped by dispersal and deterministic processes in the South China Sea - Huifang Li; Lu Liu; Yu Wang; Lanlan Cai; Maoqiu He; Long Wang; Chen Hu; Nianzhi Jiao; Rui Zhang (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary As the most abundant and genetically diverse biological entities, viruses significantly influence ecological, biogeographical and evolutionary processes in the ocean. However, the biogeography of marine viruses and the drivers shaping viral community are unclear. Here, the biogeographic patterns of T4‐like viruses and the relative impacts of deterministic (environmental selection) and dispersal (spatial distance) processes were investigated in the northern South China Sea. The dominant viral operational taxonomic units were affiliated with previously defined Marine, Estuary, Lake and Paddy Groups. A clear viral biogeographic pattern was observed along the environmental gradient from the estuary to open sea. Marine Groups I and IV had a wide geographical distribution, whereas Marine Groups II, III and V were abundant in lower‐salinity continental or eutrophic environments. A significant distance‐decay pattern was noted for the T4‐like viral community, especially for those infecting cyanobacteria. Both deterministic and dispersal processes influenced viral community assembly, although environmental selection (e.g. temperature, salinity, bacterial abundance and community, etc.) had a greater impact than spatial distance. Network analysis confirmed the strong association between viral and bacterial community composition, and suggested a diverse ecological relationship (e.g. lysis, co‐infection or mutualistic) between and within viruses and their potential bacterial hosts.

Intensified fragmentation and shrinkage of the polar climate zone in the Arctic - Yanlong Guan; Hongwei Lu; Li He; Yu Kang; Hari Adhikari; Jiankai Zhang; Petri Pellikka (International Journal of Climatology, 2021)
Using both observation and CMIP5 simulation data, this study investigates the shifts of climate zones from a landscape perspective on the Arctic for the period 1940–2013. The results reveal that the reduction in area is often accompanied by the fragmentation of the spatial structure. In terms of percentage of landscape, the coverage of polar climate zone had undergone a rapid decrease from 1940 to 2013. Moreover, the polar climate has been facing an intensified fragmentation over the time 1940–2013. Further analysis shows that this fragmentation phenomenon can be attributed more to anthropogenic than natural forcing from 1940 to 2003, even though the change in patch density is not steady, by comparison of observations and simulation results. In addition, the fragmentation in the Arctic climate zone depends on the horizontal resolution of data. Although the fragmentation trends of observations at three spatial resolutions of 2°–0.5° are consistent, the magnitude of trends weakens as the spatial resolution decreases.

Identifying a Carotenoid Cleavage Dioxygenase (CCD4) Gene Controlling Yellow/White Fruit Flesh Color of “Piqiutao” (White Fruit Flesh) and Its Mutant (Yellow Fruit Flesh) - Lu Wen; Yongqing Wang; Qunxian Deng; Min Hong; Si Shi; Shanshan He; Yan Huang; Hui Zhang; Cuiping Pan; Zhiwu Yang; Zhuoheng Chi; Yunmiao Yang (Plant Molecular Biology Reporter, 2020)
To better understand the fruit flesh coloration mechanism of peach ( Prunus persica ), the composition and accumulation of carotenoids were compared, the expression profile of key genes involved in carotenoid biosynthetic and catabolic pathways was performed, and the differentially expressed genes were identified using “Piqiutao” (white fruit flesh) and its mutant yellow “Piqiutao” at different fruit development stages. The results showed that the total carotenoid content in yellow “Piqiutao” was remarkably higher than that of “Piqiutao,” and the accumulation of β-cryptoxanthin, α-carotene, and β-carotene was significantly different, which was most likely caused by the differential expression of CCD4 . Therefore, CCD4 may be an essential gene that causes the yellow fruit flesh of yellow “Piqiutao.” However, the coding region sequence of CCD4 was entirely identical, and the intron was inserted by a retrotransposon in “Piqiutao” and its mutant, indicating that the expression difference was not caused by the sequence mutation and retrotransposon insertion.

Examining two sets of introgression lines across multiple environments reveals background-independent and stably expressed quantitative trait loci of fiber quality in cotton - Yuzhen Shi; Aiying Liu; Junwen Li; Jinfa Zhang; Shaoqi Li; Jinfeng Zhang; Liujun Ma; Rui He; Weiwu Song; Lixue Guo; Quanwei Lu; Xianghui Xiang; et al. (Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2020)
Key message Background-independent (BI) and stably expressed (SE) quantitative trait loci (QTLs) were identified using two sets of introgression lines across multiple environments. Genetic background more greatly affected fiber quality traits than environmental factors. Sixty-one SE-QTLs, including two BI-QTLs, were novel and 48 SE-QTLs, including seven BI-QTLs, were previously reported. Abstract Cotton fiber quality traits are controlled by QTLs and are susceptible to environmental influence. Fiber quality improvement is an essential goal in cotton breeding but is hindered by limited knowledge of the genetic basis of fiber quality traits. In this study, two sets of introgression lines of Gossypium hirsutum × G. barbadense were used to dissect the QTL stability of three fiber quality traits (fiber length, strength and micronaire) across environments using 551 simple sequence repeat markers selected from our high-density genetic map. A total of 76 and 120 QTLs were detected in the CCRI36 and CCRI45 backgrounds, respectively. Nine BI-QTLs were found, and 78 (41.71%) of the detected QTLs were reported previously. Thirty-nine and 79 QTLs were SE-QTLs in at least two environments in the CCRI36 and CCRI45 backgrounds, respectively. Forty-eight SE-QTLs, including seven BI-QTLs, were confirmed in previous reports, and 61 SE-QTLs, including two BI-QTLs, were considered novel. These results indicate that genetic background more strongly impacts on fiber quality traits than environmental factors. Twenty-three clusters with BI- and/or SE-QTLs were identified, 19 of which harbored favorable alleles from G. barbadense for two or three fiber quality traits. This study is the first report using two sets of introgression lines to identify fiber quality QTLs across environments in cotton, providing insights into the effect of genetic backgrounds and environments on the QTL expression of fiber quality and important information for the genetic basis underlying fiber quality traits toward QTL cloning and molecular breeding.

The fungal mitochondrial membrane protein, BbOhmm, antagonistically controls hypoxia tolerance - Zhangjiang He; Xin Zhao; Yifei Gao; Nemat O. Keyhani; Huifang Wang; Juan Deng; Zhuoyue Lu; Yanze Kan; Zhibing Luo; Yongjun Zhang (Environmental Microbiology, 2020)
Summary Adaptation to low‐oxygen (LO) environment in host tissues is crucial for microbial pathogens, particularly fungi, to successfully infect target hosts. However, the underlying mechanisms responsible for hypoxia tolerance in most pathogens are poorly understood. A mitochondrial protein, BbOhmm, is demonstrated to limit oxidative stress resistance and virulence in the insect fungal pathogen, Beauveria bassiana . Here, we found that BbOhmm negatively affected hypoxic adaptation in the insect haemocoel while regulating respiration‐related events, heme synthesis and mitochondrial iron homeostasis. A homologue of the mammalian sterol regulatory element‐binding proteins (SREBPs), BbSre1, was shown to be involved in BbOhmm‐mediated LO adaptation. Inactivation of BbSre1 resulted in a significant increase in sensitivity to hypoxic and oxidative stress. Similar to ΔBbOhmm , ΔBbSre1 or the ΔBbOhmmΔBbSre1 double mutant accumulated high levels of heme and mitochondrial iron, regulating the similar pathways during hypoxic stress. BbSre1 transcriptional activity and nuclear import were repressed in ΔBbOhmm cells and affected by intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) and oxygen levels. These findings have led to a new model in which BbOhmm affects ROS homeostasis in combination with available oxygen to control the transcriptional activity of BbSre1, which in turn mediates LO adaptation by regulating mitochondrial iron homeostasis, heme synthesis and respiration‐implicated genes.

Global response patterns of plant photosynthesis to nitrogen addition: A meta‐analysis - Xingyun Liang; Tong Zhang; Xiankai Lu; David S. Ellsworth; Hormoz BassiriRad; Chengming You; Dong Wang; Pengcheng He; Qi Deng; Hui Liu; Jiangming Mo; Qing Ye (Global Change Biology, 2020)
A mechanistic understanding of plant photosynthetic response is needed to reliably predict changes in terrestrial carbon (C) gain under conditions of chronically elevated atmospheric nitrogen (N) deposition. Here, using 2,683 observations from 240 journal articles, we conducted a global meta‐analysis to reveal effects of N addition on 14 photosynthesis‐related traits and affecting moderators. We found that across 320 terrestrial plant species, leaf N was enhanced comparably on mass basis ( N mass , +18.4%) and area basis ( N area , +14.3%), with no changes in specific leaf area or leaf mass per area. Total leaf area (TLA) was increased significantly, as indicated by the increases in total leaf biomass (+46.5%), leaf area per plant (+29.7%), and leaf area index (LAI, +24.4%). To a lesser extent than for TLA, N addition significantly enhanced leaf photosynthetic rate per area ( A area , +12.6%), stomatal conductance ( g s , +7.5%), and transpiration rate ( E , +10.5%). The responses of A area were positively related with that of g s , with no changes in instantaneous water‐use efficiency and only slight increases in long‐term water‐use efficiency (+2.5%) inferred from 13 C composition. The responses of traits depended on biological, experimental, and environmental moderators. As experimental duration and N load increased, the responses of LAI and A area diminished while that of E increased significantly. The observed patterns of increases in both TLA and E indicate that N deposition will increase the amount of water used by plants. Taken together, N deposition will enhance gross photosynthetic C gain of the terrestrial plants while increasing their water loss to the atmosphere, but the effects on C gain might diminish over time and that on plant water use would be amplified if N deposition persists.

Experimental and Estimation Studies of Resilient Modulus of Marine Coral Sand under Cyclic Loading - Shao-Heng He; Qiong-Fang Zhang; Zhi Ding; Tang-Dai Xia; Xiao-Lu Gan (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020)
Coral sand is an important filler resource that can solve the shortage of terrestrial fillers in coastal areas. Recently, the foundations of many infrastructures in the South China Sea have been built with coral sand as fillers, which have been subjected to wave and traffic cyclic loads. Resilient modulus (Mr) is an important design parameter in marine engineering, but there are few studies on the resilient modulus response of coral sand under cyclic loading. A series of drained cyclic triaxial tests were carried out to investigate the effects of the initial mean effective stress (p0) and cyclic stress ratio (ζ) on the resilient modulus response of the coral sand from the South China Sea. The change of fractal dimension (αc) can reflect the rule of particle breakage evolution. The αc of coral sand shows a tendency of almost maintaining stable and then increasing rapidly with the increase of mean effective stress p0 under each cyclic stress ratio ζ. There is a threshold of p0, when the p0 exceeds this threshold, αc will increase significantly with the increase of p0. The increase of p0 has a beneficial effect on the improvement of the Mr, while the increase of ζ has both beneficial and detrimental effects on the improvement of the Mr. A new prediction model of the Mr considering particle breakage was established, which can better predict the Mr of coral sand in the whole stress interval. The research results can provide guidance for the design of marine transportation infrastructures, which can promote the development of marine transportation industry and energy utilization.

Patch aggregation trends of the global climate landscape under future global warming scenario - Hongwei Lu; Yanlong Guan; Li He; Hari Adhikari; Petri Pellikka; Janne Heiskanen; Eduardo Maeda (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
The global temperature has increased approximately 0.9°C over the past 50 years and is projected to continue to increase. Many efforts have been taken to investigate the evolutionary dynamics of climate classification zones in response to the rising temperature. However, the changing dynamics of the spatial climate patterns remain poorly understood. It is thus desired that the unobserved characteristics of the global climate patterns, such as aggregation and subdivision, are explored from the landscape perspective. Here, we demonstrate that the global climate zones have undergone a process of aggregation during the past 100 years and that this dynamic is expected to continue in the future. The climate aggregation effect is especially evident in the Arctic, Tibet, and East Africa. We find that the tropical, arid, temperate, and cold climates are aggregating while the polar climate zone exhibits subdivision. Furthermore, our analysis demonstrates a clear spatial aggregation process with a latitudinal feature. We should pay enough attention to the phenomenon of patch aggregation of global climate landscape pattern, which will undoubtedly help us to deepen our understanding of global climate change and help to further explore the feedback relationship between climate and biological systems.

Future private car stock in China: current growth pattern and effects of car sales restriction - Yu Gan; Zifeng Lu; Hao Cai; Michael Wang; Xin He; Steven Przesmitzki (Mitigation and Adaptation Strategies for Global Change, 2020)
Car stock projection is essential to evaluating the energy and environmental impacts of private cars in China. Since the private car ownership rate in China has not reached its saturation level, limited and outdated data used in previous studies has resulted in high uncertainties regarding the functions of car ownership and significantly reduced the robustness of the projection of private car stocks. In this work, we estimate China’s current growth pattern of private car ownership by analyzing more than 6300 pairs of private car ownership and income data collected from various official statistics at the national, provincial, and city levels in the period of 1997–2017. The dataset covers a much wider per-capita disposable income range than national-level data alone and allows us to make satisfactory projections of private car stocks in China up to 2040. We project that the private car stock in China could reach 403 million in 2040, if the current growth pattern of car ownership continues. Significant discrepancies in private car ownership curves are observed for cities with and without car sales restrictions. Without car sales restrictions, we estimate that the private car stock would be even higher at 455 million by 2040, demonstrating the effectiveness of the current restriction policy in controlling car stocks in China. We further quantify the potential impacts of car sales restrictions on future car stock levels by implementing hypothetical national car sales caps. Results show that, although the private car stocks would still continue to grow before 2030, the stock levels would be stable at ~ 280 and ~ 350 million by 2040 for scenarios of 20 and 25 million sales caps, respectively. The impact of private car stock growth on energy consumption in China is also examined. Pump-to-wheels energy consumption of the private car fleet is projected to be 131, 147, 90, and 113 million tonnes of oil equivalent by 2040 for scenarios of the current growth pattern, no sales restriction, the 20 million sales cap, and the 25 million sales cap, respectively. Analysis reveals that private car sales restriction and vehicle population growth control could be an effective strategy for energy consumption reduction (thus greenhouse gas emission mitigation) in China, although the development of the automotive industry may be restrained.

Growing‐season temperature and precipitation are independent drivers of global variation in xylem hydraulic conductivity - Pengcheng He; Sean M. Gleason; Ian J. Wright; Ensheng Weng; Hui Liu; Shidan Zhu; Mingzhen Lu; Qi Luo; Ronghua Li; Guilin Wu; Enrong Yan; Yanjun Song; et al. (Global Change Biology, 2020)
Stem xylem‐specific hydraulic conductivity ( K S ) represents the potential for plant water transport normalized by xylem cross section, length, and driving force. Variation in K S has implications for plant transpiration and photosynthesis, growth and survival, and also the geographic distribution of species. Clarifying the global‐scale patterns of K S and its major drivers is needed to achieve a better understanding of how plants adapt to different environmental conditions, particularly under climate change scenarios. Here, we compiled a xylem hydraulics dataset with 1,186 species‐at‐site combinations (975 woody species representing 146 families, from 199 sites worldwide), and investigated how K S varied with climatic variables, plant functional types, and biomes. Growing‐season temperature and growing‐season precipitation drove global variation in K S independently. Both the mean and the variation in K S were highest in the warm and wet tropical regions, and lower in cold and dry regions, such as tundra and desert biomes. Our results suggest that future warming and redistribution of seasonal precipitation may have a significant impact on species functional diversity, and is likely to be particularly important in regions becoming warmer or drier, such as high latitudes. This highlights an important role for K S in predicting shifts in community composition in the face of climate change.

MADS‐box transcription factor Mcm1 controls cell cycle, fungal development, cell integrity and virulence in the filamentous insect pathogenic fungus Beauveria bassiana - Xin Zhao; Xingju Yang; Zhuoyue Lu; Huifang Wang; Zhangjiang He; Guangyan Zhou; Zhibing Luo; Yongjun Zhang (Environmental Microbiology, 2019)
Summary MADS‐box transcription factor Mcm1 plays crucial roles in regulating mating processes and pathogenesis in some fungi. However, its roles are varied in fungal species, and its function remains unclear in entomopathogenic fungi. Here, Mcm1 orthologue, Bbmcm1, was characterized in a filamentous entomopathogenic fungus, Beauveria bassiana . Disruption of Bbmcm1 resulted in a distinct reduction in growth with abnormal conidiogenesis, and a significant decrease in conidial viability with abnormal germination. Δ Bbmcm1 displayed impaired cell integrity, with distorted cell wall structure and altered cell wall component. Abnormal cell cycle was detected in Δ Bbmcm1 with longer G 2 /M phase but shorter G 1 /G 0 and S phases in unicellular blastospores, and sparser septa in multicellular hyphae, which might be responsible for defects in development and differentiation due to the regulation of cell cycle‐involved genes, as well as the corresponding cellular events‐associated genes. Dramatically decreased virulence was examined in Δ Bbmcm1 , with impaired ability to escape haemocyte encapsulation, which was consistent with markedly reduced cuticle‐degrading enzyme production by repressing their coding genes, and downregulated fungal effector protein‐coding genes, suggesting a novel role of Mcm1 in interaction with host insect. These data indicate that Mcm1 is a crucial regulator of development, cell integrity, cell cycle and virulence in insect fungal pathogens.

Experimental Study and Estimation of Groundwater Fluctuation and Ground Settlement due to Dewatering in a Coastal Shallow Confined Aquifer - Jiong Li; Ming-Guang Li; Lu-Lu Zhang; Hui Chen; Xiao-He Xia; Jin-Jian Chen (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019)
The coastal micro-confined aquifer (MCA) in Shanghai is characterized by shallow burial depth, high artesian head, and discontinuous distribution. It has a significant influence on underground space development, especially where the MCA is directly connected with deep confined aquifers. In this paper, a series of pumping well tests were conducted in the MCA located in such area to investigate the dewatering-induced groundwater fluctuations and stratum deformation. In addition, a numerical method is proposed for the estimation of hydraulic parameter, and an empirical prediction method is developed for dewatering-induced ground settlement. Test results show that groundwater drawdowns and soil settlement can be observed not only in MCA but also in the aquifers underneath it. This indicates that there is a close hydraulic connection among each aquifer. Moreover, the distributions and development of soil settlement at various depths are parallel to those of groundwater drawdowns in most areas of the test site except the vicinity of pumping wells, where collapse-induced subsidence due to high-speed flow may occur. Furthermore, the largest deformation usually occurs at the top of the pumping aquifer instead of the ground surface, because the top layer is expanded due to the stress arch formed in it. Finally, the proposed methods are validated to be feasible according to the pumping well test results and can be employed to investigate the responses of groundwater fluctuations and stratum deformations due to dewatering in MCA.

Toxoplasma gondii infects almost all the warm-blooded animals. ROP20 protein is expressed in the rhoptry of Toxoplasma gondii . In this study, the secondary structure of ROP20 was analyzed using SMART software. We constructed and analyzed the 3D model of ROP20 protein using SWISS-MODEL online procedure and Visual Molecular Dynamics (VMD) software. The structure analysis fully indicated that ROP20 protein is an important member of the ROP family. Furthermore, We used DNASTAR software and Epitope Database online service to analyze liner-B cell epitopes and T-cell epitopes of ROP20 protein. All the analysis results of ROP20 protein can provide positive information on treatment and vaccine for toxoplasmosis. Moreover, ROP20 gene was obtained from PCR, and a recombinant eukaryotic expression vector (pEGFP-C1-ROP20) was constructed in the following study. After restriction enzyme digestion, the constructed plasmid was transfected into HEK 293-T cells. The RT-PCR result indicated that the recombinant plasmid could transcribe successfully in HEK 293-T cell. The results of western blotting indicated the expressed proteins can be recognized by anti-STAg mouse sera.

Molecular target analysis of stearoyl-CoA desaturase genes of protozoan parasites - He Lu; Xin Qin; Jing Zhang; Shuang Zhang; Yu Zhu; Wei Hua Wu (Acta Parasitologica, 2018)
Protozoan parasites can synthesize polyunsaturated fatty acids. They possess stearoyl-CoA desaturase to convert stearate into oleate and linoleate. Stearoyl-CoA desaturase are the key enzymes required for the synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids. It seems attractive to evaluate the possibility of using unsaturated fatty acid biosynthesis pathways as drug targets. In this study, the authors investigate codon usage bias, base composition variations and protein sequence in ten available complete stearoyl-CoA desaturase gene sequences from Toxoplasma gondii , Neospora caninum etc. The results show that fatty acid desaturase genes GC content high of parasitic protozoa genes, GC content up to 63.37%, while fatty acid desaturase genes of parasitic protozoa prefers to use codon ending with G/C. In addition, the expected curve was also drawn to reveal the relationship of ENC and GC3s when the codon usage was only subjected to the nucleotide composition constraint. The genes lied on the expected curve in ENC-plot, indicating nucleotide composition constraint played a role in the condon usage pattern. Protein analysis, we find that all proteins are stearoyl-CoA desaturase, have sites of iron-binding active centers and contain three conserved His-rich motifs. If stearoyl-CoA desaturase is unusual to these parasites, it provides basis as a promising target for the development of selective chemical intervention. Therefore, the Bioinformatics analysis of protein and codon can help improve the work of genetic engineering and drug screening.

Differing phylogeographic patterns within the Indo‐West Pacific mangrove genus Xylocarpus (Meliaceae) - Zixiao Guo; Wuxia Guo; Haidan Wu; Xiaoting Fang; Wei Lun Ng; Xianggang Shi; Ying Liu; Zhicheng Huang; Weixi Li; Lu Gan; Sining He; Cairong Zhong; et al. (Journal of Biogeography, 2018)
Aim The genus Xylocarpus contains two mangrove species, X. granatum and X. moluccensis , and a rare non‐mangrove, X. rumphii . The two mangrove species are ideal models to study the biogeography of coastal plants with a unique dispersal ability, that is via buoyant propagules. We constructed the phylogeny of Xylocarpus and its relatives and determined the population structures of the two mangrove species. We aimed to elucidate the roles of continental drift and long‐distance dispersal ( LDD ) in shaping the present‐day distribution of Xylocarpus and to determine the factors affecting the patterns of population differentiation. Location The Indo‐West Pacific ( IWP ) region. Methods Thirty populations of X. granatum , 15 of X. moluccensis and four of X. rumphii were sampled across the IWP region. Five chloroplast DNA intergenic spacers were sequenced for Xylocarpus and outgroup species to determine divergence times. The genetic diversity, divergence and structure of the two mangrove species were further analysed using five nuclear and two chloroplast DNA loci. Migrations between oceanic regions were estimated. Results The genus Xylocarpus diverged from its sister genus Carapa approximately 19.4 Ma. The populations of X. granatum differentiated into three groups, with genetic breaks present across the Malay Peninsula and Wallacea, whereas X. moluccensis populations differentiated into two groups, with a genetic break present only across the Malay Peninsula. Migration was also observed between populations of the Southeast Asian and Australasian regions in X. moluccensis but not in X. granatum . Main conclusion Since Xylocarpus originated after the breakup of Gondwana and subsequent plate motions, its current distribution range should have been facilitated by present‐day LDD instead of past continental drift. Despite the capacity of LDD , the presence of differing population structures across land barriers (the Sunda and Sahul Shelves) and ocean currents indicated differential limitations in the dispersal capabilities of X. granatum and X. moluccensis .
