(European Journal of Clinical Microbiology & Infectious Diseases, 2023)
We describe the opportunistic infections (OIs) of HIV/AIDS to understand the spectrum, mortality, and frequency of multiple coinfected OIs among HIV/AIDS patients in southern China, where OIs are severe. We carried out a retrospective cohort study of hospitalized HIV-infected individuals at the Fourth People’s Hospital of Nanning, Guangxi, China, from Jan. 2011 to May. 2019. The chi-square test was used to analyze cross-infection; the Kaplan‒Meier analysis was used to compare mortality. A total of 12,612 HIV-infected patients were admitted to this cohort study. Among them, 8982 (71.2%) developed one or more OIs. The overall in-hospital mortality rate was 9.0%. Among the patients, 35.6% coinfected one OI, and 64.4% coinfected more than two OIs simultaneously. Almost half of the patients (60.6%) had CD4 + T-cell counts < 200 cells/μL. Pneumonia (39.8%), tuberculosis (35.3%), and candidiasis (28.8%) were the most common OIs. Coinfected cryptococcal meningitis and dermatitis are the most common combined OIs. The rate of anaemia (17.0%) was highest among those common HIV-associated complications. Multiple OIs are commonly found in hospitalized HIV/AIDS patients in southwestern China, which highlights the need for improved diagnosis and treatment.

PDGFD switches on stem cell endothelial commitment - Weisi Lu; Peipei Xu; Boxiong Deng; Jianing Zhang; Ying Zhan; Xianchai Lin; Xiangzhong Xu; Zhaoxia Xia; Xiaoxi Yang; Xiaoling Zeng; Lijuan Huang; Bingbing Xie; et al. (Angiogenesis, 2022)
The critical factors regulating stem cell endothelial commitment and renewal remain not well understood. Here, using loss- and gain-of-function assays together with bioinformatic analysis and multiple model systems, we show that PDGFD is an essential factor that switches on endothelial commitment of embryonic stem cells (ESCs). PDGFD genetic deletion or knockdown inhibits ESC differentiation into EC lineage and increases ESC self-renewal, and PDGFD overexpression activates ESC differentiation towards ECs. RNA sequencing reveals a critical requirement of PDGFD for the expression of vascular-differentiation related genes in ESCs. Importantly, PDGFD genetic deletion or knockdown increases ESC self-renewal and decreases blood vessel densities in both embryonic and neonatal mice and in teratomas. Mechanistically, we reveal that PDGFD fulfills this function via the MAPK/ERK pathway. Our findings provide new insight of PDGFD as a novel regulator of ESC fate determination, and suggest therapeutic implications of modulating PDGFD activity in stem cell therapy.

The utilization of physically based models and GIS techniques for comprehensive risk assessment of storm surge: A case study of Huizhou - Si Wang; Lin Mu; Hao Qin; Lizhe Wang; Zhenfeng Yao; Enjin Zhao (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2022)
Quantitative analyses of storm surge risk, which are mostly focused on physical vulnerability, have been widely used to help coastal communities mitigate impacts and damage. Such assessments, however, overlook the social aspect of vulnerability in storm surge risk. By considering both the community’s social vulnerability and buildings’ physical vulnerability, this study proposed a methodology that incorporates social vulnerability into the framework for making quantitative risk assessments of storm surge using a coupled hydrodynamic and wave model, Geographical Information System (GIS) techniques, and the Principal Component Analysis (PCA) method. The coastal area of Huizhou was chosen as the case study due to its high concentration of oil and gas infrastructure in China’s southern Guangdong Province. By combining hazard, exposure, physical vulnerability, and social vulnerability, it was possible to explore the effect of social vulnerability on the physical vulnerability-based risk assessment of storm surge and determine the overall risk level. First, the Gumbel distribution was utilized to establish five representative and plausible hypothetical typhoon events with different return periods (10, 20, 50, 100, and 1000 years) for the study area. Then, using the well-validated fully-coupled model, the Simulating Waves Nearshore (SWAN) model and the ADvanced CIRCulation (ADCIRC) model, storm surge simulations for defined return periods were run, and the geographical distribution of the maximum surge elevations displayed on a GIS platform was used to assess hazard levels. In terms of the physical aspect, the depth-damage functions for buildings were established to estimate direct economic losses and assign risk levels accordingly. For the social vulnerability of a community, a composite score was computed using the PCA method by combining and aggregating indicators representing various characteristics of the social group. The results show that the overall risk level, taking into account both social vulnerability and physical vulnerability, has decreased on average. It suggests that social vulnerability-based risk assessment may account for a significant portion of the overall risk assessment, which is frequently overlooked in traditional storm surge risk assessment. Additionally, the comprehensive and precise risk maps can assist local policymakers in identifying areas at different risk levels and developing evacuation plans, thereby minimizing potential losses, especially in high-risk areas.

Three leading coupled modes of summer rainfall with atmospheric circulations over northern East Asia - Zhongda Lin; Qin Yang (International Journal of Climatology, 2022)
Northern East Asia ( NEA ) is characterized by wet monsoon region in the east and mid‐latitude westerly‐controlled dry inland in the west in summer, where ecosystem and environment are vulnerable to rainfall variability. Previous studies found close relationship between summer rainfall in NEA and local large‐scale atmospheric circulation systems including East Asian upper‐tropospheric westerly jet ( EAJ ) and middle‐tropospheric trough ( EAT ), and lower‐tropospheric low over NEA ( NEAL ). However, major features of rainfall–circulation coupling over NEA are still not fully understood. This study addresses this issue using multivariate empirical orthogonal functions method based on the ERA‐Interim reanalysis dataset and the GPCP precipitation data for 1979–2018. Three leading coupled modes are identified, together accounting for 30–50% of summer rainfall year‐to‐year variance in most of NEA . The first mode features consistent decrease of rainfall in NEA related to the decelerated EAJ , southward shifted EAT, and weakened NEAL , with a significant interdecadal change in late 1990s. The second mode exhibits a meridional dipole rainfall pattern, with less rainfall along the East Asian subtropical rainy belt and more rainfall in southern Russian Far East, coupled with the northward shifted EAJ , weakened EAT , and intensified NEAL . The third mode presents a zonal dipole rainfall pattern, with suppressed rainfall in southern Russia east of northeast China and enhanced rainfall around the Lake Baikal related to the decelerated EAJ , and westward shifted EAT and NEAL . Further investigation shows that the first mode is remotely modulated by summer rainfall anomalies in the Sahel region and Atlantic Multidecadal Oscillation ( AMO ) on the interdecadal timescales, and by the Polar/Eurasia teleconnection on the interannual timescales. The second and third modes are, respectively, modulated by summer rainfall in the western North Pacific and north central‐eastern India through the East Asia‐Pacific and circumglobal teleconnection patterns.

Comparative Transcriptomics of Gonads Reveals the Molecular Mechanisms Underlying Gonadal Development in Giant Freshwater Prawns (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) - Guang Yang; Zhendong Qin; Zhijie Lu; Rishen Liang; Lijuan Zhao; Gan Pan; Li Lin; Kai Zhang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
The giant freshwater prawn, Macrobrachium rosenbergii, is a prawn that has economic significance throughout the world. It exhibits sex-related growth dimorphism, whereby the males grow significantly more rapidly than the females. Therefore, a study on the molecular regulatory mechanism, which underlies the sexual differentiation of M. rosenbergii, is of both scientific and commercial importance. However, a scarcity of genomic and transcriptomic resources severely limits our knowledge of the sexual differentiation mechanisms in M. rosenbergii. Here, transcriptome sequencing of several gonadic samples of males and females in M. rosenbergii was performed to investigate the molecular basis underlying gonadal development. Our results showed that 2149 unigenes presented as differentially expressed genes (DEGs) in the ovaries of females compared to the testes of males, which contained 484 down-regulated and 1665 up-regulated genes. Enrichment analysis of DEGs revealed many of these genes to be related to sexual differentiation and gonadal development. From our transcriptome analyses, and as confirmed by quantitative real-time PCR, male-related genes (Mrr, MRPINK, IR, IAGBP, TESK1, and dsx) in the testes were significantly up-regulated, and female-related genes (ERR, Sxl3, cyclinB, Dmrt99B, PPP2A, and ADCY9) in the ovaries were also significantly up-regulated. This indicates the potential role these genes play in the gonadal development of M. rosenbergii. Furthermore, multiple signal transduction pathways relating to gonadal maturation and spermatogenesis, including MAPK, were identified herein. Our data also supports previous ideas that IAG and IAGBP-IR signaling schemes could help in the regulation of testis’ development in M. rosenbergii and the ERR gene could regulate ovarian development by affecting the expression of cyclinB, PPP2A, and ADCY9. The data from this study provides incredibly usefully genomic resources for future research on the sexual differentiation and practical aquaculture of M. rosenbergii.

QTL identification, fine mapping, and marker development for breeding peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) resistant to bacterial wilt - Feiyan Qi; Ziqi Sun; Hua Liu; Zheng Zheng; Li Qin; Lei Shi; Qingzheng Chen; Haidong Liu; Xiufang Lin; Lijuan Miao; Mengdi Tian; Xiao Wang; et al. (Theoretical and Applied Genetics, 2022)
Key message A major QTL, qBWA12 , was fine mapped to a 216.68 kb physical region, and A12.4097252 was identified as a useful KASP marker for breeding peanut varieties resistant to bacterial wilt. Abstract Bacterial wilt, caused by Ralstonia solanacearum , is a major disease detrimental to peanut production in China. Breeding disease-resistant peanut varieties is the most economical and effective way to prevent the disease and yield loss. Fine mapping the QTLs for bacterial wilt resistance is critical for the marker-assisted breeding of disease-resistant varieties. A recombinant inbred population comprising 521 lines was used to construct a high-density genetic linkage map and to identify QTLs for bacterial wilt resistance following restriction-site-associated DNA sequencing. The genetic map, which included 5120 SNP markers, covered a length of 3179 cM with an average marker distance of 0.6 cM. Four QTLs for bacterial wilt resistance were mapped on four chromosomes. One major QTL, qBWA12 , with LOD score of 32.8–66.0 and PVE of 31.2–44.8%, was stably detected in all four development stages investigated over the 3 trial years. Additionally, qBWA12 spanned a 2.7 cM region, corresponding to approximately 0.4 Mb and was fine mapped to a 216.7 kb region by applying KASP markers that were polymorphic between the two parents based on whole-genome resequencing data. In a large collection of breeding and germplasm lines, it was proved that KASP marker A12.4097252 can be applied for the marker-assisted breeding to develop peanut varieties resistant to bacterial wilt. Of the 19 candidate genes in the region covered by qBWA12 , nine NBS-LRR genes should be further investigated regarding their potential contribution to the resistance of peanut against bacterial wilt.

The Key Regulator of Necroptosis, RIP1 Kinase, Contributes to the Formation of Astrogliosis and Glial Scar in Ischemic Stroke - Yong-Ming Zhu; Liang Lin; Chao Wei; Yi Guo; Yuan Qin; Zhong-Sheng Li; Thomas A. Kent; Claire E. McCoy; Zhan-Xiang Wang; Yong Ni; Xian-Yong Zhou; Hui-Ling Zhang (Translational Stroke Research, 2021)
Necroptosis initiation relies on the receptor-interacting protein 1 kinase (RIP1K). We recently reported that genetic and pharmacological inhibition of RIP1K produces protection against ischemic stroke-induced astrocytic injury. However, the role of RIP1K in ischemic stroke-induced formation of astrogliosis and glial scar remains unknown. Here, in a transient middle cerebral artery occlusion (tMCAO) rat model and an oxygen and glucose deprivation and reoxygenation (OGD/Re)-induced astrocytic injury model, we show that RIP1K was significantly elevated in the reactive astrocytes. Knockdown of RIP1K or delayed administration of RIP1K inhibitor Nec-1 down-regulated the glial scar markers, improved ischemic stroke-induced necrotic morphology and neurologic deficits, and reduced the volume of brain atrophy. Moreover, knockdown of RIP1K attenuated astrocytic cell death and proliferation and promoted neuronal axonal generation in a neuron and astrocyte co-culture system. Both vascular endothelial growth factor D (VEGF-D) and its receptor VEGFR-3 were elevated in the reactive astrocytes; simultaneously, VEGF-D was increased in the medium of astrocytes exposed to OGD/Re. Knockdown of RIP1K down-regulated VEGF-D gene and protein levels in the reactive astrocytes. Treatment with 400 ng/ml recombinant VEGF-D induced the formation of glial scar; conversely, the inhibitor of VEGFR-3 suppressed OGD/Re-induced glial scar formation. RIP3K and MLKL may be involved in glial scar formation. Taken together, these results suggest that RIP1K participates in the formation of astrogliosis and glial scar via impairment of normal astrocyte responses and enhancing the astrocytic VEGF-D/VEGFR-3 signaling pathways. Inhibition of RIP1K promotes the brain functional recovery partially via suppressing the formation of astrogliosis and glial scar. Graphical Abstract

The Regulatory Relationships Between the Gonad-Inhibiting Hormone and Insulin-Like Androgenic Gland Hormone-Binding Protein Genes in the Eyestalk-Androgenic Gland-Testis Axis of Macrobrachium rosenbergii - Meizhen Tang; Zhijie Lu; Sarath V Babu; Guang Yang; Yanan Li; Zizheng Xu; Gan Pan; Zhendong Qin; Li Lin (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021)
Gonad-inhibiting hormone (GIH) belongs to a family of neuropeptides that are released from the eyestalks of male crustaceans and plays key roles in gonadal maturity, reproduction, and molting. However, the detailed mechanisms underlying the effects of GIH on sexual regulation have yet to be elucidated. In the present study, we aimed to demonstrate how GIH mediate the activity of the androgenic gland (AG) to affect sexual regulation. To do this, we cloned and characterized a GIH sequence from Macrobrachium rosenbergii ( Mr GIH). The open reading frame (ORF) of Mr GIH was 360 bp and codes for a polypeptide of 119 amino acids and a putative protein of 13.56 KDa. Tissue analysis showed that Mr GIH is widely expressed in a range of tissues but particularly, the eyestalk, intestine, and nerve cord. Following the ds RNA silencing of Mr GIH for 24 h, the expression levels of Mr GIH were down-regulated in both the eyestalk and AG when compared with the negative control, but significantly increased the expression of Macrobrachium rosenbergii insulin-like androgenic gland hormone-binding protein ( Mr IAGBP) in AG, thus suggesting that Mr GIH is an inhibitory factor for Mr IAGBP. In addition, we found that eyestalk removal on certain days led to increased expression levels of Mr IAGBP expression. The expression levels of Mr IAGBP peaked at 2 d in the AG after unilateral and bilateral eyestalk ablation, exhibiting a 7.27- and 6.03-fold increase, respectively. Afterward, the expression of GIH protein levels were down-regulated and IAGBP protein levels were up-regulated after GIH silencing using immunohistochemistry method, combined with the increase of IAGBP protein levels after eyestalk ablation, confirming that Mr GIH is an inhibitory factor that can moderately regulate AG development and IAGBP expression. Collectively, our findings enriched the mechanisms that control the sexual regulation pathway of male M. rosenbergii , and provided significant information for further explorations of the mechanism underlying sex regulation in other decapod crustaceans.

Master regulator NtrC controls the utilization of alternative nitrogen sources in Pseudomonas stutzeri A1501 - Zhimin Yang; Qin Li; Yongliang Yan; Xiubin Ke; Yueyue Han; Shaoyu Wu; Fanyang Lv; Yahui Shao; Shanshan Jiang; Min Lin; Yunhua Zhang; Yuhua Zhan (World Journal of Microbiology and Biotechnology, 2021)
Pseudomonas stutzeri A1501 is a model strain used to study associative nitrogen fixation, and it possesses the nitrogen regulatory NtrC protein in the core genome. Nitrogen sources represent one of the important factors affecting the efficiency of biological nitrogen fixation in the natural environment. However, the regulation of NtrC during nitrogen metabolism in P. stutzeri A1501 has not been clarified. In this work, a phenotypic analysis of the ntrC mutant characterized the roles of NtrC in nitrogen metabolism and the oxidative stress response of P. stutzeri A1501. To systematically identify NtrC-controlled gene expression, RNA-seq was performed to further analyse the gene expression differences between the wild-type strain and the ∆ ntrC mutant under nitrogen fixation conditions. A total of 1431 genes were found to be significantly altered by ntrC deletion, among which 147 associative genes had NtrC-binding sites, and the pathways for nitrogen fixation regulation, nitrogenous compound acquisition and catabolism and nitrate assimilation were discussed. Furthermore, the oxidative stress-related gene ( katB ), which was upregulated by ntrC deletion, was suggested to be a potential target gene of NtrC, thus highlighting the importance of NtrC in nitrogenase protection against oxygen damage. Based on these findings, we propose that NtrC is a high-ranking element in the regulatory network of P. stutzeri A1501 that controls a variety of nitrogen metabolic and oxidative stress responsive traits required for adaptation to complex rhizosphere environments.

Experimental evidence for long‐term coexistence of copiotrophic and oligotrophic bacteria in pelagic surface seawater - Yi Li; Zhi‐Bin Wang; Xi‐Ying Zhang; Yan‐Ru Dang; Lin‐Lin Sun; Wei‐Peng Zhang; Hui‐Hui Fu; Gui‐Peng Yang; Min Wang; Andrew McMinn; Xiu‐Lan Chen; Yin Chen; et al. (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary Most marine copiotrophic bacteria can produce extracellular enzymes to degrade biopolymers into bio‐available smaller solutes, while oligotrophic bacteria usually cannot. Bacterial extracellular enzymes and enzymatic products can be a common resource that could be utilized by both copiotrophs and oligotrophs; when present, oligotrophs may outcompete the enzyme‐producing copiotrophs. However, copiotrophs and oligotrophs consistently coexist in the ocean. How they maintain coexistence has still not been experimentally studied. In this study, the interaction and coexistence of a copiotroph and an oligotroph, isolated from the same surface seawater sample and utilizing the same proteinaceous substrate, were experimentally investigated. The copiotroph could secrete extracellular proteases to degrade and then utilize the proteinaceous substrate. The oligotroph was unable to utilize the proteinaceous substrate by itself, but could grow by using the hydrolysate amino acids. The copiotroph outcompeted the oligotroph by adsorbing the amino acids quickly and having a higher growth rate in the rich medium. The oligotroph survived by adapting to low concentration of nutrients. The copiotroph and oligotroph were able to maintain long‐term (up to 142 days) coexistence in the laboratory. This study indicates that differences in the utilization of different concentrations of nutrients can drive the coexistence of marine copiotrophs and oligotrophs.

Study on the Rheological Behavior of a Model Clay Sediment - Yuan Lin; Huaitao Qin; Jin Guo; Jiawang Chen (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
Clay sediments are the main component of seabed sediment. Interactions between the nano-sized, disk-shaped and charged clay particles are complicated, as they control the sediment’s rheology. In this study, we studied the rheological behavior of the clay sediment modeled by laponite and bentonite suspensions experimentally using a rotational rheometer. The yield stress decreased when water content increased. Meanwhile, the yield stress of the laponite suspension first increased and then decreased with increasing salinity. It is considered that the face-to-face repulsive electrostatic interaction between clay platelets dominated the yield behavior. A yield stress model was developed to describe the change of the yield stress with both the water content and the salinity. When the system started to flow, the viscosity decreased with increasing shear. A master curve of viscosity is was from the viscosity-stress curves at different water contents if the applied shear stress was normalized by the yield stress and the viscosity normalized by a characteristic viscosity. This study provides a preliminary understanding of the clay sediment rheology and its mechanism for the investigation on the flowing of the sediment systems with strong interparticle interaction.

MAPK pathway‐related tyrosine phosphatases regulate development, secondary metabolism and pathogenicity in fungus Aspergillus flavus - Guang Yang; Xiaohong Cao; Genli Ma; Ling Qin; Yuanzhen Wu; Jian Lin; Peng Ye; Jun Yuan; Shihua Wang (Environmental Microbiology, 2020)
Summary Mitogen‐activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are highly conserved in eukaryotic cells and are known to play crucial roles in the regulation of various cellular processes. However, compared with kinase‐mediated phosphorylation, dephosphorylation catalysed by phosphatases has not been well characterized in filamentous fungi. In this study, we identified five MAPK pathway‐related phosphatases (Msg5, Yvh1, Ptp1, Ptp2 and Oca2) and characterized their functions in Aspergillus flavus , which produces aflatoxin B 1 (AFB 1 ), one of the most toxic and carcinogenic secondary metabolites. These five phosphatases were identified as negative regulators of MAPK (Slt2, Fus3 and Hog1) pathways. Deletion of Msg5 and Yvh1 resulted in significant defects in conidiation, sclerotia formation, aflatoxin production and crop infection. Additionally, double knockout mutants (Δ Msg5/ Δ Ptp1 , Δ Msg5/ Δ Ptp2 and Δ Msg5/ Δ Oca2 ) displayed similar defects to those observed in the Δ Msg5 single mutant, indicating that Msg5 plays a major role in the regulation of development and pathogenicity in A . flavus . Importantly, we found that the active site at C439 is essential for the function of the Msg5 phosphatase. Furthermore, the MAP kinase Fus3 was found to be involved in the regulation of development, aflatoxin biosynthesis and pathogenicity, and its conserved phosphorylation residues (Thr and Tyr) were critical for the full range of its functions in A . flavus . Overall, our results reveal that MAPK related tyrosine phosphatases play important roles in the regulation of development, secondary metabolism and pathogenicity in A . flavus , and could be developed as potential targets for preventing damage caused by this fungal pathogen.

Winner takes all: reconstructing the decapitation of a warrior in Bronze Age China from osteological evidence - Yawei Zhou; Shuang Lin; Rangping Qin; Hui-Yuan Yeh; Qun Zhang (Archaeological and Anthropological Sciences, 2020)
Decapitation is an ancient practice in Asia with inadequate research. The present study reports on the osteological examination of a headless skeleton excavated from a high-status tomb in Chu State style dating back to the late Warring States Period (ca. 3th century BC) in Lu’an, Anhui, China. The individual is identified as a victim of decapitation with five peri-mortem sharp force cut marks on the posterior parts of the cervical vertebrae, and another one on the right second metacarpal. Microscopic observation of the kerfs, the historical records and archaeological evidence support the speculation that the individual could be a warrior of Chu State, who is decapitated after being wounded during the war against the Qin State. The hacking implement and the sequences of the cut marks are further discussed to reconstruct the process of execution. This multidisciplinary reconstruction is the first scientific osteological analysis of the decapitation on the human remains from the Chinese Bronze Age. Moreover, it will enrich our knowledge of the decapitation phenomenon in terms of war and execution in ancient China.

Trends in downward surface shortwave radiation from multi‐source data over China during 1984–2015 - Zhigao Zhou; Aiwen Lin; Lunche Wang; Wenmin Qin; Yang zhong; Lijie He (International Journal of Climatology, 2020)
The clear knowledge of decadal variability of surface solar radiation (SSR) is of vitally significant for understanding hydrological and biological processes and climate prediction. However, existing studies have shown observed SSR over China may have large discrepancies and inhomogeneity in decadal variability due to sensitivity drift, inaccurate calibrations and instrument replacement. Therefore, a new procedure of station selection was proposed to eliminate errors and to derive “true” SSR values in this study. Afterward, two satellite retrieves of SSR, including Clouds and the Earth's Radiant Energy System‐energy balanced and filled product (CERES‐EBAF) (edition 4) and Global Energy and Water Cycle Experiment‐Surface Radiation Budget (GEWEX‐SRB) (Version 3.0), and three reanalysis products, including National Centers for Environmental Prediction‐National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCEP‐NCAR), national centers for environmental prediction‐/department of energy (NCEP‐DOE) and Modern‐Era Retrospective analysis for Research and Applications, version 2 (MERRA‐2) were evaluated using “true” SSR values at 39 homogeneous stations from the China Meteorological Administration and it was found that although all five products overestimated SSR, two satellite retrieves showed better accuracy with an overall R of 0.95, an root mean squared error (RMSE) of 20.4 W m −2 and mean absolute bias error (MAE) of 14.9 W m −2 for CERES‐EBAF and an overall R of 0.92, an RMSE of 27.7 W m −2 and MAE of 21.2 W m −2 for GEWEX‐SRB across China. Meanwhile, inter‐comparisons between trends of observations and trends of two satellite retrieves in this study showed that the new trends derived from two satellite retrieves (+0.78 W m −2 decade −1 ) were good agreement with trends of observation (+0.92 W m −2 decade −1 ) from 1994 to 2015. However, trends of SSR (+5.8 W m −2 decade −1 ) in situ measurements were still in disagreement with the trends of SSR (−3.7 W m −2 decade −1 ) derived from two satellite retrieves from 1984 to 1993 because of the sensitivity drift and instrument replacement in this period. The possible reasons for decadal variability of SSR in China were detected and it was found that variations in aerosol optical depth (AOD) and aerosol‐cloud interaction, rather than cloud, were suggested to be likely the main influencing factor of decadal variability of SSR across China from 1984 to 2015.

Plastic pollution is a global concern given its prevalence in aquatic and terrestrial ecosystems. Studies have been conducted on the distribution and impact of plastic pollution in marine ecosystems, but little is known on terrestrial ecosystems. Plastic mulch has been widely used to increase crop yields worldwide, yet the impact of plastic residues in cropland soils to soil health and crop production in the long term remained unclear. In this paper, using a global meta‐analysis, we found that the use of plastic mulch can indeed increase crop yields on average by 25%–42% in the immediate season due to the increase of soil temperature (+8%) and moisture (+17%). However, the unabated accumulation of film residues in the field negatively impacts its physicochemical properties linked to healthy soil and threatens food production in the long term. It has multiple negative impacts on plant growth including crop yield (at the mean rate of −3% for every additional 100 kg/ha of film residue), plant height (−2%) and root weight (−5%), and soil properties including soil water evaporation capacity (−2%), soil water infiltration rate (−8%), soil organic matter (−0.8%) and soil available phosphorus (−5%) based on meta‐regression. Using a nationwide field survey of China, the largest user of plastic mulch worldwide, we found that plastic residue accumulation in cropland soils has reached 550,800 tonnes, with an estimated 6%–10% reduction in cotton yield in some polluted sites based on current level of plastic residue content. Immediate actions should be taken to ensure the recovery of plastic film mulch and limit further increase in film residue loading to maintain the sustainability of these croplands.

Sapoviruses (SAVs), including several genogroups (GI to GV), are one of the causes of acute gastroenteritis (AGE). In this study, viral metagenomics revealed the presence of sapoviruses of different genogroups in stool from children with AGE. Eight different complete SAV genomes were determined, of which five belonged to GI and the other three belonged to GII, GIV and GV, respectively. Although they were highly similar to published sequences, the GIV and GV were the first complete genome sequences of these SAVs found in China. In a prevalence investigation, 19% of subjects with AGE were positive for SAVs, while none of the control group was positive.

Robust Classification Method for Underwater Targets Using the Chaotic Features of the Flow Field - Xinghua Lin; Jianguo Wu; Qing Qin (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020)
Fish can sense their surrounding environment by their lateral line system (LLS). In order to understand the extent to which information can be derived via LLS and to improve the adaptive ability of autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs), a novel strategy is presented, which directly uses the information of the flow field to distinguish the object obstacle. The flow fields around different targets are obtained by the numerical method, and the pressure signal on the virtual lateral line is studied based on the chaos theory and fast Fourier transform (FFT). The compounded parametric features, including the chaotic features (CF) and the power spectrum density (PSD), which is named CF-PSD, are used to recognize the kinds of obstacles. During the research of CF, the largest Lyapunov exponent (LLE), saturated correlation dimension (SCD), and Kolmogorov entropy (KE) are taken into account, and PSD features include the number, amplitude, and position of wave crests. A two-step support vector machine (SVM) is built and used to classify the shapes and incidence angles based on the CF-PSD. It is demonstrated that the flow fields around triangular and square targets are chaotic systems, and the new findings indicate that the object obstacle can be recognized directly based on the information of the flow field, and the consideration of a parametric feature extraction method (CF-PSD) results in considerably higher classification success.

Agrobacterium-mediated genetic transformation of Chinese chestnut (Castanea mollissima Blume) - Zhi-lin Sun; Xiao Li; Wan Zhou; Jun-di Yan; Yue-rong Gao; Xiao-wei Li; Jia-chen Sun; Ke-feng Fang; Qing Zhang; Yu Xing; Ling Qin; Qing-qin Cao (Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture (PCTOC), 2020)
Chinese chestnut ( Castanea mollissima ) is an important germplasm resource for the breeding of Castanea species worldwide with vital ecological and economic value. Biotechnology overcomes the limitations of traditional breeding and accelerates germplasm improvement. However, a genetic transformation system for Chinese chestnut has not yet been established. In this study, a stable and efficient Agrobacterium -mediated genetic transformation method for Chinese chestnut is described. Embryogenic calli of C. mollissima cv. ‘Yanshanhongli’ were used as the target material. The sensitivity of embryogenic calli to kanamycin was determined, whereby the proliferation of non-transformed calli was completely inhibited at 180 mg/L. Antibiotic inhibition results for Chinese chestnut embryogenic calli showed that 50 mg/L cefotaxime and 500 μM timentin completely inhibited the growth of Agrobacterium tumefaciens but did not affect the normal growth of Chinese chestnut embryogenic calli. When embryogenic calli were co-cultured for 2 days with Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain AGL1 harboring the PBI121-EGFP plasmid, an embryogenic callus transformation efficiency of 4.55% was obtained, and two transgenic chimera were acquired. This Agrobacterium -mediated transformation system for Chinese chestnut provides a fundamental platform for genetic improvement of core germplasm and for further verification of gene function.

A Novel Obstacle Localization Method for an Underwater Robot Based on the Flow Field - Xinghua Lin; Jianguo Wu; Qing Qin (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2019)
Because the underwater environment is complex, autonomous underwater vehicles (AUVs) have difficulty locating their surroundings autonomously. In order to improve the adaptive ability of AUVs, this paper presents a novel obstacle localization strategy based on the flow features. Like fish, the strategy uses the flow field information directly to locate the object obstacles. Two different localization methods are provided and compared. The first method, which is named the Method of Spatial Distribution (MSD), is based on the spatial distribution of the flow field. The second method, which is named the Method of Amplitude Variation (MAV), is provided by the amplitude variation of the flow field. The flow field around spherical targets is obtained by a numerical method, and both methods use the parallel velocity component on the virtual lateral line. During the study, different target numbers, detective ratios, spacing ratios, and flow velocities are taken into account. It is demonstrated that both methods are able to locate object obstacles. However, the prediction accuracy of MAV is higher than that of MSD. That implies that MAV is more robust than MSD. These new findings indicate that the object obstacles can be directly located based on the flow field information and robust flow sensing is perhaps not based on the spatial distribution of the flow field but rather, on its fluctuation range.
