Erosion and accretion of salt marsh in extremely shallow water stages - Dezhi Chen; Jieping Tang; Fei Xing; Jun Cheng; Mingliang Li; Yiyi Zhang; Benwei Shi; Lianqiang Shi; Ya Ping Wang (Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023)
Salt marshes, which commonly exist on the upper tidal flat, provide a natural barrier against sea level rise and coastal storm. The extremely shallow water stages (water depth< 0.2 m), including the initial stage of flood tides and the last stage of ebb tides, can induce a significant impact on sediment dynamics of saltmarshes and associated tidal flats, despite lasting for only a short time (around 10 min), which has been less studied. In this study, two parallel field sites were established to quantify erosion-accretion processes and morphological changes during extremely shallow water stages in salt marshes within Doulonggang tidal flat along the Jiangsu coast. Our results revealed that obvious accretion occurred during extremely shallow water stages, with a total deposition amount of +33.8 mm in vegetated areas and +20.8 mm in unvegetated areas. In contrast, erosion dominated during deep water stages, with a total erosion amount of -22.3 mm at the vegetated site and -32.7 mm at the unvegetated site. The magnitude of bed-level change during extremely shallow water stages was 7~8 times greater than that during deep water stages, even though the duration of extremely shallow water stages was only about 14~15% of the entire tidal cycle. Furthermore, strong winds significantly impacted deposition during extremely shallow water stages compared to calm weather. During the strong wind period, the average bed level change rate reached +0.15 mm/min and +0.12 mm/min in the vegetated and unvegetated areas, respectively. This is significantly higher than the +0.05 mm/min and +0.01 mm/min during the calm weather period. These results reveal that extremely shallow water stages have substantial impacts on sedimentary processes, which are vital for the maintenance of tidal flat systems.

Orbital‐ to millennial‐scale variation of the speleothem δ 18 O record during Marine Isotope Stages 5 to 3 on the southeast Chinese Loess Plateau and its climatic and environmental implications - YANJUN CAI; HAI CHENG; XING CHENG; ZHENGGUO SHI; YANBIN LU; LE MA; CARLOS PÉREZ‐MEJÍAS; HAIWEI ZHANG; YINGYING WEI; GANG XUE; HANYING LI; MEI HE; et al. (Journal of Quaternary Science, 2023)
The Chinese Loess Plateau (CLP) is located in northern China, a region climatically dominated by the East Asian monsoon. Speleothem records from this region are crucial to fully understand the variability of the East Asian summer monsoon (EASM) and reconcile the disparity seen between loess records and speleothem δ 18 O records for the EASM. Here, we present an absolutely dated stalagmite isotope record spanning most of Marine Isotope Stage (MIS) 5 to MIS 3 from Xiaotian Cave, southeast CLP. The Xiaotian speleothem δ 18 O record is dominated by precessional variations and punctuated by notable millennial‐scale oscillations; in particular, the δ 18 O values in MIS 5e, 5c and 5a were in the same range, consistent with other speleothem δ 18 O records from the EASM region within quoted errors, verifying the difference between speleothem δ 18 O and loess records (e.g. magnetic susceptibility) and the proposition that those two archives may record different aspects of the EASM changes. The similar values in MIS 5e, 5c and 5a observed from the speleothem δ 18 O records in EASM regions, incompatible with the relatively higher North Hemisphere Summer Insolation (NHSI) during MIS 5e, were probably caused by an equivalent or even increased contribution of 18 O‐enriched moisture from the South China Sea and North Pacific, implying that an El Niño‐like state existed during MIS 5e. The Xiaotian δ 18 O values increased abruptly at ~121.7 thousand years (kyr) before the present ( bp , present refers to ad 1950), consistent with the trend seen in previously reported Chinese speleothem δ 18 O records, indicating an abrupt regime shift in atmospheric circulations or hydroclimate conditions in the Asian monsoon systems. It cannot be definitely ruled out that an increase in sea ice extent in the northern North Atlantic, responding to a decrease of NHSI, reached a threshold to have led to abrupt changes in the Asian summer monsoon (ASM) through rapid shifts in the position of circulation of the westerlies and/or in the position of Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ). Here, we hypothesized that sea surface cooling in the tropical Indian and Pacific Ocean caused by the decreased summer insolation reached a threshold that eventually resulted in an abrupt shift to more positive precipitation δ 18 O, either through weakened convection over the tropical ocean, or through abrupt shifts in moisture transport and cycling of tropical moisture sources for the ASM. The Xiaotian speleothem δ 18 O record also shows centennial‐scale variability with amplitude up to 3‰ within MIS 5e. These changes are similar to variations recorded by the speleothem δ 18 O record from Tianmen Cave on the south‐central Tibetan Plateau and Shangxiaofeng Cave in Shandong Province, northern China, suggesting a heightened sensitivity of precipitation δ 18 O to climate changes at the marginal zone of the ASM even during the warm and humid MIS 5e interglacial. Climatic oscillations during MIS 5e appear to be comparable to those typical of the Holocene, implying rather unstable climate conditions during the Last Interglacial.

New field observation on distribution, turnover, and sea–air flux of three dimethylated sulfur compounds (dimethylsulfide (DMS), dimethylsulfoniopropionate, and dimethylsulfoxide) in the western tropical Indian Ocean (WTIO; 4°N–10°S, 61°–65°E) were conducted under the major Global Change and Air–Sea Interaction Program during the 2021/2022 Northeast Monsoon (December 21, 2021 to January 11, 2022). Significantly high surface concentrations of DMS were identified in the region of the Seychelles–Chagos Thermocline Ridge (SCTR; 5°–10°S). This occurred because the shallow thermocline/nitracline and associated upwelling fueled biological production of DMS in the subsurface, which was brought to the surface through vertical mixing. The calculated sea–air DMS flux was also significantly strong in the SCTR region during the Northeast Monsoon owing to combination of high wind speed and high surface concentration of DMS. This finding is similar to results obtained previously during the Southwest Monsoon, suggesting that the SCTR region is an area of active DMS emission during both the Northeast Monsoon and the Southwest Monsoon. Microbial consumption was the dominant pathway of DMS removal, accounting for 74.4% of the total, whereas the processes of photolysis (17.7%) and ventilation (7.9%) were less important. Future work should be undertaken in the WTIO to establish how DMS emission is linked to aerosol properties and climate change.

Quantitative detection of parasitic ciliate Cryptocaryon irritans in seawater with an optimized sample processing method - Jia‐Jia Tang; Zhi‐Hong Zhong; Zhi‐Cheng Li; Qing‐Kai Guo; Shi‐Yu Li; Yi‐Xuan Guo; Biao Jiang; An‐Xing Li (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2022)
The protozoan Cryptocaryon irritans is one of the most important ectoparasites of marine fish, causing ‘white spot disease’ and mass mortality in aquaculture. To accurately predict disease outbreaks and develop prevention strategies, improved detection methods are required that are sensitive, convenient and rapid. In this study, a pair of specific primers based on the C . irritans 18S rRNA gene was developed and used in a real‐time PCR (qPCR) assay. This assay was able to detect five theronts in 1 L of natural seawater. Furthermore, a linear model was established to analyse the log of Ct value and parasite abundance in seawater (y = –2.9623x + 24.2930), and the coefficient of determination (R 2 ) value was 0.979. A lysis buffer was optimized for theront DNA extraction and used for storage sample. This method was superior to the commercial water DNA kit, and there was no significant degradation of DNA at room temperature for 24–96 hr. A dilution method was developed to manage qPCR inhibitors and used to investigate natural seawater samples in a net cage farm with diseased fish, and the findings were consistent with the actual situation. This study provides a valuable tool for assisting in the early monitoring and control of cryptocaryoniasis in aquaculture.

Asymmetrical Oscillating Morphology Hydrodynamic Performance of a Novel Bionic Pectoral Fin - Cheng Xing; Yong Cao; Yonghui Cao; Guang Pan; Qiaogao Huang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
This research proposes a novel bionic pectoral fin and experimentally studied the effects of the oscillation parameters on the hydrodynamic performance of a bionic experimental prototype. Inspired by manta rays, the bionic pectoral fin was simplified and modeled based on the natural pectoral fin skeleton structure and oscillation morphology of this underwater creature. A dual-degree-of-freedom bionic pectoral fin was designed. The active spatial motion was realized by the space six-link mechanism driven by two motors, and the passive deformation was achieved by carbon fiber. The motion analysis of the bionic pectoral fin proves that the pectoral fin can realize an “8”-shaped spatial trajectory. An experimental prototype was developed accordingly. The experimental prototype could flap between 0.1 Hz and 0.6 Hz and produce a maximum thrust of 20 N. The hydrodynamic performance under different oscillation parameters was studied experimentally in a water pool. The experimental results indicate that the hydrodynamic performance of the pectoral fin oscillation is closely related to the motion equation parameters including the amplitude, frequency, phase difference, and initial bias. In addition to considering the impact of parameters on thrust and lift, the influences of asymmetrical oscillation on the position of the equivalent point were also studied. The results show that the pectoral fin proposed in this research exhibited the expected spatial deformation and outstanding hydrodynamic performance. The obtained results shed light on the updated design and control of a bionic robot fish.

Summary Exposure to a diverse microbial environment during pregnancy and early postnatal period is important in determining predisposition towards allergy. However, the effect of environmental microbiota exposure during preconception, pregnancy and postnatal life on development of allergy in the child has not been investigated so far. In the S‐PRESTO (Singapore PREconception Study of long Term maternal and child Outcomes) cohort, we collected house dust during all three critical window periods and analysed microbial composition using 16S rRNA gene sequencing. At 6 and 18 months, the child was assessed for eczema by clinicians. In the eczema group, household environmental microbiota was characterized by presence of human‐associated bacteria Actinomyces , Anaerococcus, Finegoldia, Micrococcus, Prevotella and Propionibacterium at all time points, suggesting their possible contributions to regulating host immunity and increasing the susceptibility to eczema. In the home environment of the control group, putative protective effect of an environmental microbe Planomicrobium ( Planococcaceae family) was observed to be significantly higher than that in the eczema group. Network correlation analysis demonstrated inverse relationships between beneficial Planomicrobium and human‐associated bacteria ( Actinomyces , Anaerococcus, Finegoldia, Micrococcus, Prevotella and Propionibacterium ). Exposure to natural environmental microbiota may be beneficial to modulate shed human‐associated microbiota in an indoor environment.

Summary Nitroaromatic compounds pose severe threats to public health and environmental safety. Nitro group removal via ammonia release is an important strategy for bacterial detoxification of nitroaromatic compounds, such as the conversion of 4‐nitrobenzoate (4‐NBA) to protocatechuate by the bacterial pnb operon. In contrast to the LysR‐family transcriptional regulator PnbR in proteobacteria, the actinomycete‐derived pnb locus (4‐NBA degradation structural genes) formed an operon with the TetR‐family transcriptional regulator gene pnbX , implying that it has a distinct regulatory mechanism. Here, pnbBA from the actinomycete Nocardioides sp. strain LMS‐CY was biochemically confirmed to express 4‐NBA degradation enzymes, and pnbX was essential for inducible degradation of 4‐NBA. Purified PnbX‐6His could bind the promoter probe of the pnb locus in vitro , and 4‐NBA prevented this binding. 4‐NBA could bind PnbX at a 1:1 molar ratio with K D = 26.7 ± 4.2 nM. Low‐nanomolar levels of 4‐NBA induced the transcription of the pnb operon in strain LMS‐CY. PnbX bound a palindromic sequence motif (5'‐TTACGTTACA‐N 8 ‐TGTAACGTAA‐3′) that encompasses the pnb promoter. This study identified a TetR‐family repressor for the actinomycete‐derived pnb operon that recognizes 10 −8 M 4‐NBA as its ligand, implying that nitro group removal of nitroaromatic compounds may be especially important for actinomycetes.

Extensions of the distributed lag non-linear model (DLNM) to account for cumulative mortality - Chao-Yu Guo; Xing-Yi Huang; Pei-Cheng Kuo; Yi-Hau Chen (Environmental Science and Pollution Research, 2021)
The effects of meteorological factors on health outcomes have gained popularity due to climate change, resulting in a general rise in temperature and abnormal climatic extremes. Instead of the conventional cross-sectional analysis that focuses on the association between a predictor and the single dependent variable, the distributed lag non-linear model (DLNM) has been widely adopted to examine the effect of multiple lag environmental factors health outcome. We propose several novel strategies to model mortality with the effects of distributed lag temperature measures and the delayed effect of mortality. Several attempts are derived by various statistical concepts, such as summation, autoregressive, principal component analysis, baseline adjustment, and modeling the offset in the DLNM. Five strategies are evaluated by simulation studies based on permutation techniques. The longitudinal climate and daily mortality data in Taipei, Taiwan, from 2012 to 2016 were implemented to generate the null distribution. According to simulation results, only one strategy, named MV DLNM , could yield valid type I errors, while the other four strategies demonstrated much more inflated type I errors. With a real-life application, the MV DLNM that incorporates both the current and lag mortalities revealed a more significant association than the conventional model that only fits the current mortality. The results suggest that, in public health or environmental research, not only the exposure may post a delayed effect but also the outcome of interest could provide the lag association signals. The joint modeling of the lag exposure and the delayed outcome enhances the power to discover such a complex association structure. The new approach MV DLNM models lag outcomes within 10 days and lag exposures up to 1 month and provide valid results.

Sum of High-Risk Gene Mutation (SHGM): A Novel Attempt to Assist Differential Diagnosis for Adrenocortical Carcinoma with Benign Adenoma, Based on Detection of Mutations of Nine Target Genes - Guo-Yang Zheng; Xue-Bin Zhang; Han-Zhong Li; Yu-Shi Zhang; Jian-Hua Deng; Xing-Cheng Wu (Biochemical Genetics, 2021)
There has been no research on applying gene detection to differential diagnosis of adrenocortical carcinoma (ACC). We attempted to explore a novel auxiliary method for differential diagnosis between ACC with benign adrenocortical adenoma (ACA), based on mutations of target genes in tissues. Nine genes were chosen as target genes, including TP53, CTNNB1, ARMC5, PRKAR1A, ZNRF3, RB1, APC, MEN1, and RPL22 . Exons sequencing of target genes were performed in 98 cases of tissue samples by FastTarget technology, including 41 ACC tissues, 32 ACA tissues, and 25 normal adrenal gland tissues. Significant mutations were detected and identified, and the clinical information was collected, for further comparative analysis and application to assist differential diagnosis of ACC. We identified 132 significant gene mutations and 227 significant mutation sites in 37 ACC tissues, much more than ACA and normal adrenal gland tissues. Mutation rates of 6 genes in ACC tissues were obviously higher than ACA tissues, including ZNRF3, ARMC5, TP53, APC, RB1, and PRKAR1A , regarded as high-risk genes. The sum of mutated high-risk genes detected in each sample was denominated sum of high-risk gene mutation (SHGM), and the rates of SHGM > 0 and SHGM > 1 in ACC tissues were 73.0% and 62.2%, respectively, both obviously higher than those in ACA tissues, with significant statistic differences. Especially for 8 cases of ACC with diameter 0 and SHGM > 1 were found in 6 samples (75%) and 4 samples (50%), respectively. However, no relevance was found between SHGM and clinical characteristics of ACC. We identified 6 high-risk genes in ACC tissues, with significantly higher mutation rates than ACA or normal adrenal gland tissues. The sum of mutated high-risk genes detected in ACC tissues was denominated SHGM, which was potential to assist the differential diagnosis of ACC with ACA, especially for the small-size ACC.

Candidate genes underlying the quantitative trait loci for root-knot nematode resistance in a Cucumis hystrix introgression line of cucumber based on population sequencing - Chunyan Cheng; Xing Wang; Xuejiao Liu; Shuqiong Yang; Xiaqing Yu; Chuntao Qian; Ji Li; Qunfeng Lou; Jinfeng Chen (Journal of Plant Research, 2019)
The southern root-knot nematode (RKN), Meloidogyne incognita (Kofoid & White) Chitwood, is one of most destructive species of plant parasitic nematodes, causing significant economic losses to numerous crops including cucumber ( Cucumis sativus L. 2n = 14). No commercial cultivar is currently available with resistance to RKN, severely hindering the genetic improvement of RKN resistance in cucumber. An introgression line, IL10-1, derived from the interspecific hybridization between the wild species Cucumis hystrix Chakr. (2n = 24, HH) and cucumber, was identified with resistance to RKN. In this study, an ultrahigh-density genetic linkage bin-map, composed of high-quality single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), was constructed based on low-coverage sequences of the F 2:6 recombinant inbred lines derived from the cross between inbred line IL10-1 and cultivar ‘Beijingjietou’ CC3 (hereinafter referred to as CC3). Three QTLs were identified accounting for 13.36% (qRKN1-1), 9.07% and 9.58% (qRKN5-1 and qRKN5-2) of the resistance variation, respectively. Finally, four genes with nonsynonymous SNPs from chromosome 5 were speculated to be the candidate RKN-resistant related genes, with annotation involved in disease resistance. Though several gaps still exist on the bin-map, our results could potentially be used in breeding programs and establish an understanding of the associated mechanisms underlying RKN resistance in cucumber.

Mitochondrial variation in small brown planthoppers linked to multiple traits and probably reflecting a complex evolutionary trajectory - Jing‐Tao Sun; Xing‐Zhi Duan; Ary A. Hoffmann; Yan Liu; Michael R. Garvin; Lei Chen; Gao Hu; Jin‐Cheng Zhou; Hai‐Jian Huang; Xiao‐Feng Xue; Xiao‐Yue Hong (Molecular Ecology, 2019)
While it has been proposed in several taxa that the mitochondrial genome is associated with adaptive evolution to different climatic conditions, making links between mitochondrial haplotypes and organismal phenotypes remains a challenge. Mitonuclear discordance occurs in the small brown planthopper (SBPH), Laodelphax striatellus, with one mitochondrial haplogroup (HGI) more common in the cold climate region of China relative to another form (HGII) despite strong nuclear gene flow, providing a promising model to investigate climatic adaptation of mitochondrial genomes. We hypothesized that cold adaptation through HGI may be involved, and considered mitogenome evolution, population genetic analyses, and bioassays to test this hypothesis. In contrast to our hypothesis, chill‐coma recovery tests and population genetic tests of selection both pointed to HGII being involved in cold adaptation. Phylogenetic analyses revealed that HGII is nested within HGI, and has three nonsynonymous changes in ND2 , ND5 and CYTB in comparison to HGI. These molecular changes likely increased mtDNA copy number, cold tolerance and fecundity of SBPH, particularly through a function‐altering amino acid change involving M114T in ND2 . Nuclear background also influenced fecundity and chill recovery (i.e., mitonuclear epistasis) and protein modelling indicates possible nuclear interactions for the two nonsynonymous changes in ND2 and CYTB . The high occurrence frequency of HGI in the cold climate region of China remains unexplained, but several possible reasons are discussed. Overall, our study points to a link between mtDNA variation and organismal‐level evolution and suggests a possible role of mitonuclear interactions in maintaining mtDNA diversity.
