Recent Progress in Atmospheric Chemistry Research in China: Establishing a Theoretical Framework for the “Air Pollution Complex” - Tong Zhu; Mingjin Tang; Meng Gao; Xinhui Bi; Junji Cao; Huizheng Che; Jianmin Chen; Aijun Ding; Pingqing Fu; Jian Gao; Yang Gao; Maofa Ge; et al. (Advances in Atmospheric Sciences, 2023)
Atmospheric chemistry research has been growing rapidly in China in the last 25 years since the concept of the “air pollution complex” was first proposed by Professor Xiaoyan TANG in 1997. For papers published in 2021 on air pollution (only papers included in the Web of Science Core Collection database were considered), more than 24 000 papers were authored or co-authored by scientists working in China. In this paper, we review a limited number of representative and significant studies on atmospheric chemistry in China in the last few years, including studies on (1) sources and emission inventories, (2) atmospheric chemical processes, (3) interactions of air pollution with meteorology, weather and climate, (4) interactions between the biosphere and atmosphere, and (5) data assimilation. The intention was not to provide a complete review of all progress made in the last few years, but rather to serve as a starting point for learning more about atmospheric chemistry research in China. The advances reviewed in this paper have enabled a theoretical framework for the air pollution complex to be established, provided robust scientific support to highly successful air pollution control policies in China, and created great opportunities in education, training, and career development for many graduate students and young scientists. This paper further highlights that developing and low-income countries that are heavily affected by air pollution can benefit from these research advances, whilst at the same time acknowledging that many challenges and opportunities still remain in atmospheric chemistry research in China, to hopefully be addressed over the next few decades.

Abundance and ecological footprint of Pseudoalteromonas phage vB_PhoS_XC in the Ulva prolifera green tide - Jianhua Sun; Xinran Zhang; Yantao Liang; Kaiyang Zheng; Fraser Kennedy; Meiaoxue Han; Gang Liu; Yundan Liu; Ziyue Wang; Xuechao Chen; Yeong Yik Sung; Wen Jye Mok; et al. (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Pseudoalteromonas is a ubiquitous and abundant genus of marine bacteria commonly associated with algae. In this study, a novel siphoviral-morphological bacteriophage, vB_PhoS_XC, was isolated from the coastal seawaters of Qingdao (China) during a bloom of the Ulva prolifera ( U. prolifera ) green tide. The morphology of this phage (icosahedron head 51 ± 1 nm in diameter; a tail length of 86 ± 1 nm) was characterized through transmission electron microscope. The biological properties of this virus showed a short latent period (45 minutes), a large burst size (241 virions per cell) and a relatively wide range of temperatures/pH level tolerance (-20°C to 45°C and pH 4 to pH 10, respectively). The vB_PhoS_XC has a 46,490-bp double-stranded DNA genome with a G+C content of 40.0%, and encodes 72 open reading frames (ORFs). Thirty-five of these ORFs were assigned into known functions based on BLAST-based algorithm against NR database of GenBank. In addition, eco-genomic analysis provides the evidence of vB_PhoS_XC accompanied by bloom of U. prolifera , and confirmed the high expression of two phosphatase-metabolism-related auxiliary metabolic genes (AMGs). This study provides new insights into the functional and ecological roles of the Pseudoalteromonas phage vB_PhoS_XC, shedding light on the virological study approach combined with traditional isolation and meta-omics data.

Ndufa4 Regulates the Proliferation and Apoptosis of Neurons via miR-145a-5p/Homer1/Ccnd2 - Fang Fu; Chen Chen; Kun Du; Lu-shan Li; Ru Li; Ting-ying Lei; Qiong Deng; Dan Wang; Qiu-xia Yu; Xin Yang; Jin Han; Min Pan; et al. (Molecular Neurobiology, 2023)
The Dandy–Walker malformation (DWM) is characterized by neuron dysregulation in embryonic development; however, the regulatory mechanisms associated with it are unclear. This study aimed to investigate the role of NADH dehydrogenase 1 alpha subcomplex 4 (NDUFA4) in regulating downstream signaling cascades and neuronal proliferation and apoptosis. Ndufa4 overexpression promoted the proliferation of neurons and inhibited their apoptosis in vitro, which underwent reverse regulation by the Ndufa4 short hairpin RNAs. Ndufa4 -knockout (KO) mice showed abnormal histological alterations in the brain tissue, in addition to impaired spatial learning capacity and exploratory activity. Ndufa4 depletion altered the microRNA expressional profiles of the cerebellum: Ndufa4 inhibited miR-145a-5p expression both in the cerebellum and neurons. miR-145a-5p inhibited the proliferation of neurons and promoted their apoptosis. Ndufa4 promoted and miR-145a-5p inhibited the expression of human homer protein homolog 1 and cyclin D2 in neurons. Thus, Ndufa4 promotes the proliferation of neurons and inhibits their apoptosis by inhibiting miR-145a-5p, which directly targets and inhibits the untranslated regions of Homer1 and Ccnd2 expression.

Attached Macroinvertebrates Inhabiting Marine Plastic Debris from the Beach and Port Areas of the Southern Sea of Korea - Gwan Hee Han; Sang Lyeol Kim; Su Min Kang; Hyung-Gon Lee; Ok Hwan Yu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
The increasing amount of marine plastic debris (MPD) poses risks of ingestion, entanglement, and transport of alien species. A new ecosystem called the “plastisphere” is currently being studied, but relevant research on it is limited. In this study, we analyzed the frequency of appearance of macroinvertebrate species on MPD. Macroinvertebrates attached to MPD were collected once every three months from March to December 2021 in eight regions. MPD in the form of aquaculture and fishing gear was detected most frequently during the study. In total, two phyla, 14 orders, 19 families, and 41 species of attached macroinvertebrates were detected during the study. There were more attached macroinvertebrate species, and they were more frequent, on fishing/aquaculture MPD (sea origin) than packaging MPD (land origin). Most fishing/aquaculture MPD is made of softer or rougher materials than packaging MPD and has a longer exposure time in the sea. In particular, the alien species Mytilus galloprovincialis was found on all longer-exposure MPD. These findings suggest that the macroinvertebrates attached to MPD are affected by the duration of exposure to the water and the characteristics of the MPD material. Therefore, in the future, fishing/aquaculture MPD could be used as an indicator for monitoring MPD-attached organisms.

Species Diversity and Community Structure of Macrobenthos in the Ulleung Basin, East Sea, Republic of Korea - Sang Lyeol Kim; Su Min Kang; Hyung Gon Lee; Gwan Hee Han; Ok Hwan Yu (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2023)
The Ulleung Basin of the East Sea is a biological hotspot, but studies on the macrobenthos therein are lacking. To evaluate the macrobenthos species diversity and community structure in the Ulleung Basin, we conducted a survey from 2017 to 2021. A total of 262 species of macrobenthos was detected by the survey, and the average habitat density was 243 individuals/m2. The average biomass of macrobenthos was 43.7 g/m2, and the average Shannon and Wiener’s diversity index was 2.3 (0.69–3.61). The dominant species were the polychaetes Terebellides horikoshii, Chaetozone setosa, Scalibregma inflatum, and Aglaophamus sp. and the bivalvia Axinopsida subquadrata. The community structure of macrobenthos differed according to water depth, and a correlation analysis using environmental variables showed that the community was affected by water temperature, salinity, and dissolved oxygen. The macrobenthic fauna in the Ulleung Basin was greatly influenced by water depth, the sedimentary environment was different, and the dominant species were also different. In addition, there was little seasonal change compared to the East Sea coast. Our findings will facilitate further investigation of benthic ecosystems throughout the East Sea.

The biological transformation of ammonium and urea in a eutrophic estuarine system in Southern China - Jin-Ming Tang; Min Nina Xu; Yuxuan Lin; Huangxin Chen; Haoquan Jin; Li-Li Han; Wenbin Zou; Shuh-Ji Kao (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Estuaries channel large amounts of anthropogenic nitrogen (N) from continents to the offshore where productivity is widely limited by N and phosphorus. Ammonium and urea, two reduced forms of anthropogenic N commonly observed, are the preferred substrates for various microorganisms (e.g., uptake by phytoplankton or bacteria and oxidation by nitrifier). Yet, it remains underexplored how they transform and their concentrations vary during transport in the estuary which may influence the offshore microbial community. We applied 15 N isotope tracer incubation techniques to determine the two main bio-consumption processes, i.e., uptake and oxidation, of ammonium and urea, in the dark for the Jiulong River Estuary, a eutrophic estuary in southeastern China. Results showed that light penetration depth ranged from 0.8-3.3 m leaving 76% of estuary water bodies to stay in dark situations throughout a day. Ammonia oxidation, which favors dark conditions, dominates the estuarine regenerated-N cycle, showing the rank: ammonia oxidation > ammonium uptake >> urea uptake ≈ urea oxidation. By compiling the reported case studies, we found the relatively low ratio of urea oxidation to ammonia oxidation was accompanied by a relatively high ammonium concentration. Microorganisms’ high preference for ammonium over urea may lead to an inhibitory-like phenomenon. An analogous effect was evident by the increased urea uptake at downstream when ammonium was down to a few µM. The obstructed urea utilization resulted in 10 times longer lifetime for urea relative to ammonium (surface: 19 ± 9 days; bottom 12 ± 7 days). Such an inhibitory-like effect allows urea to be preserved in the estuary and allows urea to be transported farther offshore to stimulate microorganisms capable of utilizing urea, which may have significant impacts on offshore ecology.

Research on the Key Success Factors for the Transformation of the Traditional Fishery to Recreational Fishery in Taiwan’s Outlying Islands - Chih-Kai Yang; Han-Chung Yang; Jie-Min Lee (Fishes, 2022)
Outlying islands are affected by the environment and economy, and fishery resources are the first to experience these impacts. Therefore, it is necessary to actively and effectively transform traditional fisheries in outlying islands. This is the case in Penghu County (Penghu Islands), located on the outlying islands of Taiwan. The transformation to recreational fishery can increase the additional income of traditional fisheries during the fishing moratorium through the development of recreational fishery boats by fishermen. Recreational fishery means the fishery using fishing vessels for recreational purposes or for passengers to harvest aquatic organisms on the reef or to engage in sightseeing on the islets. Therefore, this study will explore the key factors for the successful route planning of fishermen who switch to recreational fishery boats to assist the fishermen in successfully transitioning and enabling recreational fishery to flourish. In the research, using the method of the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) expert questionnaire, it was found that the key factors affecting the route planning of recreational fishery boats are “boat conditions”, “berthing conditions”, “operating environment”, and “sightseeing potential”. After the expert questionnaire, a weight comparison of each level was performed, and it was found that “operating environment” was the most important factor, followed by “tourism potential”. However, the key factors of the “natural environment” and “cultural environment” are more important under the influence of the “operating environment”. Under the influence of “tourism potential”, “attractiveness” is a key factor, as is the “accessibility” factor. In this study, the four main fishing ports in Penghu County were also used for empirical discussion. The study results showed that Magong Fishing Port was the first choice for transformation, followed by Chikan Fishing Port. The results of this study can be used as a reference for fishermen and officials in developing a subsidy scheme for fishing boat operation, and they can be used as a reference for transforming traditional fisheries in outlying islands into recreational fishing to develop recreational fishery boats and leisure tourism industries. This research can help fishermen to attach importance to the development of recreational fishing activities and promote the stable growth of the fishery industry environment.

Understanding the effects of salinity and Vibrio harveyi on the gut microbiota profiles of Litopenaeus vannamei - Zulaikha Mat Deris; Shumpei Iehata; Han Ming Gan; Mhd Ikhwanuddin; Musa Najiah; Md Asaduzzaman; Min Wang; Yantao Liang; Muhd Danish-Daniel; Yeong Yik Sung; Li Lian Wong (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Increasing evidence have revealed a positive correlation between gut microbiota and shrimp health, in which a healthy shrimp gut consists of a complex and stable microbial community. Given that both abiotic and biotic factors constantly regulate shrimp gut microbiota, any changes affecting the levels of these factors could cause modification to the gut microbiota assemblage. The goal of this study was to explore the effects of salinity levels and pathogenic Vibrio harveyi infection on the diversity, structure, composition, interspecies interaction, and functional pathways of Litopenaeus vannamei gut microbiota. Juvenile shrimp were cultured at 5 ppt, 20 ppt, and 30 ppt for two months prior to Vibrio harveyi infection. After pathogenic V. harveyi challenge test, genomic DNA was isolated from the shrimp gut, and subjected to the 16S rRNA metagenomic sequencing analysis. We observed that gut microbiota diversity of shrimp cultured at 5 ppt and 30 ppt were lower than those cultured at 20 ppt after exposure to V. harveyi infection, suggesting that shrimp cultured at the two former salinity levels were more susceptible to V. harveyi infection. Network analysis also showed that shrimp cultured at 20 ppt exhibit a more stable bacterial network with complex interspecies interaction, even after induced by V. harveyi . Moreover, the presence of a high number of beneficial bacteria such as Pseudoruegeria , Rhodovulum , Ruegeria , Shimia and Lactobacillus in shrimp cultured at 20 ppt might have played a role in inhibiting the growth of V. harveyi and other potentially pathogenic bacteria. Besides, bacterial functional pathway prediction has also shown that metabolic pathways such as phenylalanine metabolism, glycine, serine and threonine metabolism, starch and sucrose metabolism, glyoxylate and dicarboxylate metabolism, carbon metabolism and biofilm formation process were significantly higher in shrimp cultured at 20 ppt. Collectively, our results suggested that 20 ppt is an optimal salinity that suppresses the growth of V. harveyi and potential pathogenic bacteria in the shrimp gut, which could possibly minimize the risk of pathogenic infection for sustainable production of healthy shrimp.

The invasive alga Gracilaria vermiculophylla in the native northwest Pacific under ocean warming: Southern genetic consequence and northern range expansion - Yi-Jia Liu; Kai-Le Zhong; Alexander Jueterbock; Shimada Satoshi; Han-Gil Choi; Florian Weinberger; Jorge Assis; Zi-Min Hu (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Ocean warming is one of the most important factors in shaping the spatial distribution and genetic biodiversity of marine organisms worldwide. The northwest Pacific has been broadly illustrated as an essential seaweed diversity hotspot. However, few studies have yet investigated in this region on whether and how past and ongoing climate warming impacted the distribution and genetic pools of coastal seaweeds. Here, we chose the invasive species Gracilaria vermiculophylla as a model, and identified multiple genetic lineages in the native range through genome-scale microsatellite genotyping. Subsequently, by reconstructing decadal trends of sea surface temperature (SST) change between 1978 and 2018, we found that SST in northern Japan and the East China Sea indeed increased broadly by 0.25-0.4°C/decade. The projections of species distribution models (SDMs) under different future climate change scenarios (RCP 2.6, RCP 4.5, RCP 6.0 and RCP 8.5) indicated that a unique genetic pool of G. vermiculophylla at its current southern range limit (i.e. the South China Sea) is at high risk of disappearance, and that the populations at its current northern range limit (i.e. in Hokkaido region) will undergo poleward expansions, particularly by the year 2100. Such responses, along with this species’ limited dispersal potential, may considerably alter the contemporary distribution and genetic composition of G. vermiculophylla in the northwest Pacific, and ultimately threaten ecological services provided by this habitat-forming species and other associated functional roles.

Adaptive Formation Control of Multiple Underactuated Autonomous Underwater Vehicles - Ji-Hong Li; Hyungjoo Kang; Min-Gyu Kim; Mun-Jik Lee; Gun Rae Cho; Han-Sol Jin (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
In this paper, we present a 3D formation control scheme for a group of torpedo-type underactuated autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs). These multiple AUVs combined with an unmanned surface vessel (USV) construct a sort of star-topology acoustic communication network where the USV is at the center point. Due to this kind of topological feature, this paper applies a virtual school concept. This is a geometric graph where each node is taken as a virtual leader for each specific AUV and assigned its own reference trajectory. For each individual vehicle, its formation strategy is simple: just follow the trajectory of its corresponding virtual leader so as for multiple AUVs to compose the given formation. As for the formation subject, this paper mainly focuses on the formation tracking problem rather than the formation producing. For the torpedo-type vehicle considered in this paper, there are only three control inputs (surge force, pitch, and yaw moments) available for its underwater 3D motion and therefore this is a typical underactuated system. For the following vehicle’s trajectory, a sort of potential field method is used for obstacle avoidance, and a neural network-based adaptive scheme is applied to on-line approximate the vehicle’s unknown nonlinear dynamics, and the uncertainty terms including modeling errors, measurement noises, and external disturbances are handled by the properly designed robust scheme. The proposed formation method can guarantee the uniform ultimate boundedness (UUB) of the closed-loop system. Numerical studies are also carried out to verify the effectiveness of the proposed scheme.

The potential effects of HECTD4 variants on fasting glucose and triglyceride levels in relation to prevalence of type 2 diabetes based on alcohol intake - Yoo Jeong Lee; Hansongyi Lee; Han Byul Jang; Min-Gyu Yoo; Sumin Im; Soo Kyung Koo; Hye-Ja Lee (Archives of Toxicology, 2022)
Excessive alcohol intake is an important cause of major public health problem in East Asian countries. Growing evidence suggests that genetic factors are associated with alcohol consumption and the risk for alcohol-associated disease, and these factors contribute to the risk of developing chronic diseases, including diabetes. This study aims to investigate the association of type 2 diabetes with genetic polymorphisms within HECTD4 based on alcohol exposure. We performed a genome-wide association study involving the cohorts of the KoGES-HEXA study ( n = 50,028) and Ansan and Ansung study ( n = 7,980), both of which are prospective cohort studies in Korea. The top three single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of the HECTD4 gene, specifically rs77768175, rs2074356 and rs11066280, were found to be significantly associated with alcohol consumption. We found that individuals carrying the variant allele in these SNPs had lower fasting blood glucose, triglyceride, and GGT levels than those with the wild-type allele. Multiple logistic regression showed that statistically significant associations of HECTD4 gene polymorphisms with an increased risk of type 2 diabetes were found in drinkers. Namely, these SNPs were associated with decreased odds of diabetes in the presence of alcohol consumption. As a result of examining the effect of alcohol on the expression of the HECTD4 gene, ethanol increased the expression of HECTD4 in cells, but the level was decreased by NAC treatment. Similar results were obtained from liver samples of mice treated with alcohol. Moreover, a loss of HECTD4 resulted in reduced levels of CYP2E1 and lipogenic gene expression in ethanol-treated cells, while the level of ALDH2 expression increased, indicating a reduction in ethanol-induced hepatotoxicity.

Potential Short-Term Effects of Mine Tailings on Phytoplankton Assemblages in the Open Ocean - Dong Han Choi; Jangyeon Yoo; Wonseok Yang; Jae Hoon Noh; Yeonjung Lee; Kongtae Ra; Kiseong Hyeong; Chan Min Yoo; Jisoo Park (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The disposal of mine tailings into the marine environment is considered an essential option to secure the economic efficiency of deep-sea mining, but it might adversely affects the ecosystem. To examine the potential impacts of tailing disposal from polymetallic nodules and polymetallic sulfide mines on phytoplankton communities, addition experiments of crushed fine particles into surface seawater were conducted in the open Indian Ocean and changes in chlorophyll a fluorescence and community composition were analyzed. The addition of tailings had serious adverse effects on phytoplankton fluorescence and photosynthetic activity, regardless of mine type. The adverse effects seemed to mainly be due to the physical properties of the mine tailings. These also showed discriminatory effects on phytoplankton, resulting in great changes in community composition. The results suggest that mine tailings could have significant adverse impacts on phytoplankton assemblages, but the degree of impact greatly varies depending on the phytoplankton groups. The discriminatory impacts would cause changes in biomass, community structure, and thus ecological function.

Assessing the effect of probiotics on tilapia lake virus‐infected tilapia: Transmission and immune response - Ying‐Fei Yang; Jidapa Yamkasem; Win Surachetpong; Yi‐Jun Lin; Shu‐Han You; Tien‐Hsuan Lu; Chi‐Yun Chen; Wei‐Min Wang; Chung‐Min Liao (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2022)
Probiotics have been used to alleviate disease transmission in aquaculture. However, there are limited studies on probiotic use in modulating tilapia lake virus (TiLV). We assessed commercially available probiotic supplements used in TiLV‐infected tilapia and performed mortality and cohabitation assays. We developed a mechanistic approach to predict dose–response interactions of probiotic effects on mortality and immune gene response. We used a susceptible–infected–mortality disease model to assess key epidemiological parameters such as transmission rate and basic reproduction number ( R 0 ) based on our viral load dynamic data. We found that the most marked benefits of probiotics are significantly associated with immune system enhancements (~30%) and reductions in disease transmission (~80%) and R 0 (~70%) in tilapia populations, resulting in a higher tolerance of farming densities (~400 fold) in aquaculture. These findings provide early insights as to how probiotic use‐related factors may influence TiLV transmission and the immune responses in TiLV‐infected tilapia. Our study facilitates understanding the mode of action of probiotics in disease containment and predicting better probiotic dosages in diet and supplements to achieve the optimal culturing conditions. Overall, our analysis assures that further study of rationally designed and targeted probiotics, or mechanistic modelling is warranted on the basis of promising early data of this approach.

Post-transcriptional control of bacterial nitrogen metabolism by regulatory noncoding RNAs - Yueyue Han; Chao Li; Yongliang Yan; Min Lin; Xiubin Ke; Yunhua Zhang; Yuhua Zhan (World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2022)
Nitrogen metabolism is the most basic process of material and energy metabolism in living organisms, and processes involving the uptake and use of different nitrogen sources are usually tightly regulated at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. Bacterial regulatory noncoding RNAs are novel post-transcriptional regulators that repress or activate the expression of target genes through complementarily pairing with target mRNAs; therefore, these noncoding RNAs play an important regulatory role in many physiological processes, such as bacterial substance metabolism and stress response. In recent years, a study found that noncoding RNAs play a vital role in the post-transcriptional regulation of nitrogen metabolism, which is currently a hot topic in the study of bacterial nitrogen metabolism regulation. In this review, we present an overview of recent advances that increase our understanding on the regulatory roles of bacterial noncoding RNAs and describe in detail how noncoding RNAs regulate biological nitrogen fixation and nitrogen metabolic engineering. Furthermore, our goal is to lay a theoretical foundation for better understanding the molecular mechanisms in bacteria that are involved in environmental adaptations and metabolically-engineered genetic modifications.

In-Situ Estimates of Net Ecosystem Metabolisms in the Rocky Habitats of Dokdo Islets in the East Sea of Korea - Jae Seong Lee; Sung-Han Kim; Won-Gi Min; Dong Mun Choi; Eun Kyung Lee; Kyung-Tae Kim; Sung-Uk An; Ju-Wook Baek; Won-Chan Lee; Chan Hong Park (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
We measured oxygen (O2) fluxes in two major shallow subtidal benthic habitats (kelp bed (KB) and bare rock (BR) covered with crustose coralline algae) of Dokdo islet in the East Sea by applying noninvasive in-situ aquatic eddy covariance (AEC). The AEC device allows time series measurements (~24 h) of three-dimensional velocity (u, v, and w components) and high-resolution dissolved O2. This allows estimation of O2 exchange flux via benthic habitats. Local flow rates and irradiance levels were found to be major factors controlling O2 exchange flux in the rocky habitats. Gross primary production rates tended to be significantly higher in KB (163 mmol O2 m−2 d−1) than in BR (51 mmol O2 m−2 d−1). The net ecosystem metabolisms were assessed as opposite types, with 8 mmol O2 m−2 d−1 in KB (autotrophy) and –12 mmol O2 m−2 d−1 in BR (heterotrophy). Our results indicate that kelp beds are important for organic carbon cycling in rocky coastal waters and that AEC application to macroalgae habitats is a useful assessment approach.

Bacterial Metabolic Response to Change in Phytoplankton Communities and Resultant Effects on Carbon Cycles in the Amundsen Sea Polynya, Antarctica - Bomina Kim; Sung-Han Kim; Jun-Oh Min; Youngju Lee; Jinyoung Jung; Tae-Wan Kim; Jae Seong Lee; Eun Jin Yang; Jisoo Park; SangHoon Lee; Jung-Ho Hyun (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
We investigated changes in heterotrophic bacterial metabolic activities and associated carbon cycles in response to a change in dominant phytoplankton communities during two contrasting environmental conditions in austral summer in the Amundsen Sea polynya (ASP), Antarctica: the closed polynya condition in 2014 (ANA04) and the open polynya condition in 2016 (ANA06). In ANA04, Phaeocystis antarctica predominated phytoplankton biomass, comprising 78% of total phytoplankton carbon biomass, whereas diatoms and Dictyocha speculum accounted for 45% and 48% of total phytoplankton carbon biomass, respectively, in ANA06. Bacterial production (BP) showed a significant positive correlation with only chlorophyll-a (Chl-a, rho = 0.66, p < 0.001) in P. antarctica -dominated ANA04, whereas there were significant positive relationships of BP with various organic carbon pools, such as chromophoric dissolved organic matter (CDOM, rho = 0.84, p < 0.001), Chl-a (rho = 0.59, p < 0.001), and dissolved organic carbon (DOC, rho = 0.51, p = 0.001), in ANA06 when diatoms and D. speculum co-dominated. These results indicate that BP depended more on DOC directly released from P. antarctica in ANA04, but was supported by DOC derived from various food web processes in the diatom-dominated system in ANA06. The BP to primary production (BP : PP) ratio was three-fold higher in P. antarctica -dominated ANA04 (BP: PP = 0.09), than in diatom- and D. speculum -co-dominated ANA06 (BP : PP = 0.03). These results suggested that the microbial loop is more significant in Phaeocystis -dominated conditions than in diatom-dominated conditions. In addition, the decreases in BP : PP ratio and bacterial respiration with increasing diatom proportion in the surface mixed layer indicated that the change from P. antarctica to diatom predominance enhanced biological carbon pump function by increasing particulate organic carbon export efficiency. Consequently, our results suggest that bacterial metabolic response to shifts in phytoplankton communities could ultimately affect larger-scale ecological and biogeochemical processes in the water column of the ASP.

Effect of Culture Period and Stocking Density on Input Demand and Scale Economies of Milkfish (Chanos chanos) Polycultures with White Shrimp (Penaeus indicus) - Wei-Tse Pai; Christian Schafferer; Jie-Min Lee; Li-Ming Ho; Yung-Hsiang Lu; Han-Chung Yang; Chun-Yuan Yeh (Fishes, 2022)
Milkfish, Chanos chanos, is one of the major inland cultured fish species in Taiwan. Variations in land resources and climate have led to the application of two distinct culture practices of milkfish polycultures with white shrimp, Penaeus indicus. This study applies a translog cost function model to analyze the production scale economy and input demand price elasticity of four milkfish polyculture systems with two different culture periods (OWC and NOWC) and two different white shrimp–milkfish fry stocking ratios (low SMR: 10–55 fry/ha; high SMR: 56–100 fry/ha). The findings show that the four milkfish polyculture systems require different operational adjustments to increase production while reducing the average culture cost. More specifically, overwinter cultures (OWC) have economies of scale. Farmers may reduce the average cost by expanding the production scale. Non-overwinter polycultures (NOWC) with high SMR are at the stage of decreasing return to scale, meaning that gains in output of milkfish cannot reduce the average cost. In terms of input factor use, farmers of OWC systems with high SMR are sensitive to fluctuations in the fry price since fry constitutes the input factor exhibiting the highest own-price elasticity. Moreover, fry and feed of OWC households with high SMR have high levels of substitutability, whereas fry and other input exhibit substitutability in OWC systems with low SMR. In NOWC farming households with high SMR, fry and capital have substitutability. It is thus recommended to modify the input factor use according to the culture mode and the white shrimp–milkfish stocking density ratio. Moreover, the study found that NOWCs have considerably higher SMR than OWCs, which may lead to a deterioration of the water quality in NOWC fishponds and lower survival rates. It is thus recommended to reduce the SMR to 31:1 to achieve economies of scale in production and increase the survival rate of milkfish and white shrimp.

Hydrochloric acid-treated Bacillus subtilis ghosts induce IL-1 beta, IL-6, and TNF-alpha in murine macrophage - Young-Min Kim; Kwang-Su Lee; Won-Mun Kim; Min Kim; Han-Oh Park; Chang Won Choi; Joong-Soo Han; Shin-Young Park; Ki-Sung Lee (Molecular & Cellular Toxicology, 2022)
Background Bacterial ghosts (BGs) are empty cell envelopes commonly generated using Gram-negative bacteria; they represent a potential platform for efficient adjuvant and vaccine delivery systems. However, the efficient production of BGs from bacteria in a short period of time is challenging. Objective The purpose of this study was to investigate the possibility of producing BGs in the Gram-positive Bacillus subtilis using various chemicals, and the potential application of BGs as a novel immunomodulatory agent. Results In this study, Bacillus subtilis ghosts (BSGs) were generated, for the first time to the best of our knowledge, using the minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of hydrochloric acid (HCl; 6.25 mg/mL), sulfuric acid (H 2 SO 4 ; 3.125 mg/mL), and nitric acid (HNO 3 ; 6.25 mg/mL). Among the BSGs generated using these chemicals, HCl-induced BSGs were completely DNA-free as confirmed by real-time polymerase chain reaction. Scanning electron microscopy showed the formation of transmembrane lysis tunnel structures in HCl-induced BSGs. Murine macrophages exposed to the HCl-induced BSGs at a concentration of 1 × 10 5 CFU/mL showed a cell viability of 97.8%. Additionally, HCl-induced BSGs upregulated the expression of pro-inflammatory cytokines including interleukin (IL)-1β, tumor necrosis factor alpha, and IL-6. Furthermore, we found differences in the protein expression profiles between intact live bacteria and BSGs using two-dimensional electrophoresis coupled with peptide mass fingerprinting/matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry analysis. Conclusion These data suggest that the HCl-induced BSGs may be potentially safe and effective candidates for inactivated bacterial vaccines and/or immunostimulants.

Species composition of Discomedusae jellyfish (Scyphozoa) in the coastal waters of Eastern Surabaya, East Java - Liza Gómez Daglio; Ria Hayati; Tiffany Coleman; Yoo-Min Han; Farid Muzaki; Aunurohim; Maria Elena de Bellard; Dian Saptarini (Marine Biodiversity, 2022)
The Indo-Pacific is recognized as a hotspot for marine diversity. The taxonomy of certain taxa, such as Discomedusae jellyfish, has been neglected, despite its importance in the fishery industry. This study documents the first records of Discomedusae for the Java Sea using an integrative approach and provide notes about its distribution in the area. We used up to 53 morphological and meristic characters and amplified one mitochondrial marker (COI). The comparison and assessment of these data resulted in the recognition of seven species of Discomedusae, from which five has been recorded for the Indo-Pacific area. Two other species require a taxonomic revision to confirm the species assignation. The distribution of jellyfish in the coast of Java Sea might be correlated with the jellyfish life history and species-specific ranges of tolerance, and not solely determined by the environmental parameters. These findings provide the foundations for extending the taxonomic research in the area; the description of the biodiversity will increase the understanding of the population dynamics and its implications in the fisheries.
