Sandstorms damage the photosynthetic activities of Haloxylon ammodendron seedlings - Shengbo Shi; Dangwei Zhou; Rui Shi; Tao Sun; Fanglin Wang; Xiuzhen Gao; Yunian Zhang; Peng Zhao; Gaoxing Xu; Jinnian Tang (Acta Physiologiae Plantarum, 2023)
Haloxylon ammodendron is a preferred shrub species for buffering against wind and fixing sand in arid sandy areas of northwest China. To determine whether sandstorms cause damage to H. ammodendron seedlings, we investigated the effects of wind-blown sands on the photosynthetic function of H. ammodendron by simulating sand-carrying wind in the wind tunnel. The results showed that photosystem II (PSII) non-photochemical quenching ( NPQ ) was sensitive to wind erosion, and sustained blowing of sand-carrying winds enhanced NPQ reduction. The rapidly relaxing quenching NPQ f made up the majority component of NPQ ; the NPQ f / NPQ ratio was approximately 64.4% in the sand-free wind group and nearly 56.2% in the sand-carrying wind group. The distribution of the quantum efficiency of the excitation energy indicated that the relative proportions of the quantum yield of PSII photochemistry Φ PSII , the quantum yield of quenching due to light-induced Φ NPQ , and non-light-induced Φ NO were influenced by both wind erosion and light intensity; the sand-carrying wind resulted in a relative decrease in Φ NPQ and a corresponding increase in Φ NO . The maximum quantum efficiency of PSII photochemistry F v / F m was relatively stable in the sand-free wind group, with an average value of approximately 0.81. Compared to sand-free wind, sand-carrying winds caused remarkable decreases in F v / F m . Light intensity was the main factor affecting Φ PSII , Φ NPQ , and relative electron transport rate ( rETR ); there was no interaction effect between the duration of sand-carrying wind and light intensity. Taken together, wind-blown sands cause irreversible damage to the photosynthesis of H. ammodendron seedlings, which is the main factor restricting population regeneration in shelterbelts.

Identification of marine natural product Pretrichodermamide B as a STAT3 inhibitor for efficient anticancer therapy - Rui Li; Yue Zhou; Xinxin Zhang; Lujia Yang; Jieyu Liu; Samantha M. Wightman; Ling Lv; Zhiqing Liu; Chang-Yun Wang; Chenyang Zhao (Marine Life Science & Technology, 2023)
The Janus kinase (JAK)/signal transducer and activator of transcription 3 (STAT3) regulates the expression of various critical mediators of cancer and is considered as one of the central communication nodes in cell growth and survival. Marine natural products (MNP) represent great resources for discovery of bioactive lead compounds, especially anti-cancer agents. Through the medium-throughput screening of our in-house MNP library, Pretrichodermamide B, an epidithiodiketopiperazine, was identified as a JAK/STAT3 signaling inhibitor. Further studies identified that Pretrichodermamide B directly binds to STAT3, preventing phosphorylation and thus inhibiting JAK/STAT3 signaling. Moreover, it suppressed cancer cell growth, in vitro, at low micromolar concentrations and demonstrated efficacy in vivo by decreasing tumor growth in a xenograft mouse model. In addition, it was shown that Pretrichodermamide B was able to induce cell cycle arrest and promote cell apoptosis. This study demonstrated that Pretrichodermamide B is a novel STAT3 inhibitor, which should be considered for further exploration as a promising anti-cancer therapy.

Background The microenvironment of hypoxia is an important factor contributing to the development of glioblastoma (GBM). MicroRNA-588 and its potential target Roundabout-directed receptor 1 (ROBO1) have been reported to promote tumor invasion and proliferation in diseases such as gastric, pancreatic and hepatocellular carcinoma, while their function in GBM and response to hypoxic states remain elusive. Methods A microarray was leveraged to identify differentially expressed microRNAs in U251 glioma cells cultured under normoxic and hypoxic conditions. The expression of miR-588 was assessed using quantitative real-time PCR (qRT‒PCR). Gain- and loss-of-function studies were used to evaluate the role of miR-588 under hypoxic and normoxic conditions. Cell invasion, migration, proliferation, and vasculogenic mimicry (VM) formation experiments were performed. The relationship between miR-588 and ROBO1 was confirmed using western blot and luciferase reporter assays. Intracranial xenograft tumor mouse models were used to study the function of miR-588 in vivo. Results The expression of miR-588 was significantly upregulated in hypoxic glioma cells relative to normoxic glioma cells. miR-588 inhibited the invasive, migratory and VM-forming abilities of glioma cells in vitro and in vivo. Mechanistically, roundabout guidance receptor 1 (ROBO1) is a direct, functionally relevant target of miR-588 in glioma. ROBO1 knockdown suppressed the expression of matrix metallopeptidase 2 (MMP2) and matrix metallopeptidase 9 (MMP9), thereby inhibiting the invasive, migratory and VM-forming abilities of glioma. Conclusions MiR-588 regulated the behaviors of hypoxic glioma cells by targeting ROBO1. miR-588 can be used as a prognostic marker for glioma and has potential implications in glioma gene therapy.

Leakage Fault Diagnosis of Lifting and Lowering Hydraulic System of Wing-Assisted Ships Based on WPT-SVM - Ranqi Ma; Haoyang Zhao; Kai Wang; Rui Zhang; Yu Hua; Baoshen Jiang; Feng Tian; Zhang Ruan; Hao Wang; Lianzhong Huang (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022)
Wing-assisted technology is an effective way to reduce emissions and promote the decarbonization of the shipping industry. The lifting and lowering of wing-sail is usually driven by hydraulic system. Leakage, as an important failure form, directly affects the safety as well as the functioning of hydraulic system. To increase the system reliability and improve the wing-assisted effect, it is essential to conduct leakage fault diagnosis of lifting and lowering hydraulic system. In this paper, an AMESim simulation model of lifting and lowering hydraulic system of a Very Large Crude Carrier (VLCC) is established to analyze the operation characteristics of the hydraulic system. The effectiveness of the model is verified by the operation data of the actual hydraulic system. On this basis, a wavelet packet transform (WPT)-based sensitive feature extracting method of leakage fault for the hydraulic system is proposed. Subsequently, a support vector machine (SVM)-based multi-classification model and diagnosis method of leakage fault are proposed. The study results show that the proposed method has an accuracy of as high as 97.5% for six leakage fault modes. It is of great significance for ensuring the reliability of the wing-sail operation and improving the utilization rate of the offshore wind resources.

(Functional & Integrative Genomics, 2022)
microRNA (miRNA) is a type of endogenous short-chain non-coding RNA with regulatory function found in eukaryotes, which is involved in the regulation of a variety of cellular and biological processes. However, the research on the development of cashmere goat secondary hair follicles is still relatively scarce. In this study, small RNA libraries and mRNA libraries of 45 days, 55 days, 65 days, and 75 days of fetal skin of cashmere goats were constructed, and the constructed libraries were sequenced using Illumina Hiseq4000, and the expression profiles of miRNA and mRNA in cashmere goat fetal skin were obtained. The differentially expressed miRNAs and mRNAs in six control groups were identified and the qRT-PCR experiment shows that the sequencing results are accurate. Sixty-six miRNAs related to secondary hair follicle development were screened, and used TargetScan and miRanda to predict 33 highly expressed miRNA target genes. At the same time, 664 mRNAs related to the development of secondary hair follicles were screened, and GO enrichment and KEGG pathway analysis were performed. It was found that some miRNA target genes were consistent with the screening results of mRNAs related to secondary hair follicle development and were enriched in Notch signaling pathway, TGF-β signaling pathway. Therefore, miR-145-5p-DLL4, miR-27b-3p-DLL4, miR-30e-5p-DLL4, miR-193b-3p-TGF-β1, miR-181b-5p-NOTCH2, and miR-103-3p-NOTCH2 regulatory network related to the development of secondary hair follicles were constructed and the results of dual-luciferase reporter gene assay indicated that there is a targeted relationship between chi-miR-30e-5p and DLL4, which will provide a basis for molecular mechanism of miRNA-mRNA in the development of the hair follicles in cashmere goats.

Microbial activity and community structure in PM 2 .5 at different heights in ground boundary layer of Beijing atmosphere under various air quality levels - Yongtao Zhang; Hanlin Chen; Rui Du; Sujian Zhang; Hua Zhao (Environmental Microbiology, 2022)
Summary The outbreak of the COVID‐19 epidemic is a reminder that aerosols have important health effects as a potential route for disease transmission. Biological components in aerosols (especially PM 2.5 ) may pose potential threats to humans as pathogens and allergens. Research on PM 2.5 and biological components currently focuses mainly on polluted conditions, with less emphasis on clean environments. Sampling has also been primarily based on a single point with a lack of data at different positions. In this study, a modified fluorescein diacetate hydrolysis method was used to measure microbial activity in PM 2.5 at different altitudes over a year in Beijing, China. A high‐throughput sequencing method was used to study the microbial community. Results showed that microbial activity 1.5 m (0.0465 ng m −3 ) above the ground was higher than 31.5 m (0.0348 ng m −3 ). There was higher microbial activity at both heights during spring. Furthermore, a positive correlation was observed between microbial activity and relative abundance of dominant species. Microbial activity increased during autumn and winter increased alongside the pollution level, but in spring higher levels of microbial activity were observed in excellent or good weather conditions. The results from this study are valuable for further research regarding the biological components of atmospheric PM, the prevention of biological pollution, and establishing a comprehensive air quality evaluation system.

Combined Effects of Eco-Substrate and Carbon Addition on Water Quality, Fish Performance and Nutrient Budgets in the Pond Polyculture System - Kun Guo; Zhigang Zhao; Jun Xie; Liang Luo; Shihui Wang; Rui Zhang; Wei Xu; Xiaoli Huang (Fishes, 2022)
Traditional aquaculture can cause serious environmental pollution. Biofilm and biofloc technology have the potential to limit aquaculture pollution. An outdoor experiment was conducted to evaluate the combined effects of eco-substrates and carbon addition on water quality, fish performance and nutrient budgets in the pond polyculture system. In the treatment group, the total ammonia nitrogen, nitrate nitrogen, nitrite nitrogen, and total nitrogen of the water were significantly lower compared to the control group (p 92%) and P (>95%) input during the experiment. Comprehensive accumulation was the main N (>58%) and P (>69%) output. The N and P feed input and comprehensive accumulation output declined in the treatment group. The N utilization efficiency in the experimental group increased slightly (p > 0.05), while the P utilization efficiency in the experimental group was significantly higher compared to the control (p

Effects of Alkalinity on the Antioxidant Capacity, Nonspecific Immune Response and Tissue Structure of Chinese Mitten Crab Eriocheir sinensis - Mingshuai Li; Shihui Wang; Zhigang Zhao; Liang Luo; Rui Zhang; Kun Guo; Lanlan Zhang; Yuhong Yang (Fishes, 2022)
The effects of various levels of alkalinity stress (0, 18.25, 35.41, 52.53 and 69.74 mmol/L) in Chinese mitten crab (Eriocheir sinensis) were investigated by means of measuring hepatopancreas antioxidant system and serum nonspecific immune system-related indices at 0, 12, 24, 48 and 96 h, hepatopancreas tissue structure at 96 h. The activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), catalase (CAT), glutathione (GSH) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) in each concentration group generally showed a trend of a first increasing and then decreasing during the 96-h stress process (p 0.05). The activities of CAT, GSH and AST in all treatment reached peak values at 24–48 h. At 96 h of alkalinity stress, the activities of GSH, alanine aminotransferase (ALT), acid phosphatise (ACP) and alkaline phosphatise (AKP) in the 18.25 mmol/L group were not significantly different with the control group (p > 0.05). The activities of SOD and CAT in the 52.53 and 69.74 mmol/L treatment were significantly lower than those in the control group (p

Population Genetic Diversity and Differentiation of Mitten Crab, Genus Eriocheir, Based on Microsatellite Markers - Shihui Wang; Liang Luo; Rui Zhang; Kun Guo; Wei Xu; Zhigang Zhao (Fishes, 2022)
Mitten crab, Eriocheir sensu stricto, is an important indigenous aquatic species and food source in Eastern Asia. Genetic diversity is an important prerequisite for the conservation and utilization of germplasm resources. However, the genetic diversity and differentiation of Eriocheir s. s. remains unclear. This study evaluated population genetic diversity and genetic differentiation of three Eriocheir s. s. populations from Suifenhe (SFH), Liaohe (LH), and Nanliujiang (NLJ), China, based on 19 microsatellite markers. The mean observed number of alleles (Na) was 22.84 alleles, and the mean polymorphism information content (PIC) was 0.86, which demonstrated high genetic diversity. The allele frequency distribution showed an “L” shape, ranging from 0.01 to 0.74. The genetic diversity parameter values of the LH population were higher than those of the other two populations. All pairwise FST values showed significant differences among the three Eriocheir s. s. populations (p

Numerical Investigation of the Characteristics of Erosion in a Centrifugal Pump for Transporting Dilute Particle-Laden Flows - Rui-Jie Zhao; You-Long Zhao; De-Sheng Zhang; Yan Li; Lin-Lin Geng (Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021)
Erosion in centrifugal pumps for transporting flows with dilute particles is a main pump failure problem in many engineering processes. A numerical model combining the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) and Discrete Element Method (DEM) is applied to simulate erosion in a centrifugal pump. Different models of the liquid-solid inter-phase forces are implemented, and the particle-turbulence interaction is also defined. The inertial particles considered in this work are monodisperse and have finite size. The numerical results are validated by comparing the results with a series of experimental data. Then, the effects of particle volume fraction, size, and shape on the pump erosion are estimated in the simulations. The results demonstrate that severe erosive areas are located near the inlet and outlet of the pressure side of the impeller blade, the middle region of the blade, the corners of the shroud and hub of the impeller adjoining to the pressure side of the blade, and the volute near the pump tongue. Among these locations, the maximum erosion occurs near the inlet of the pressure side of the blade. Erosion mitigation occurs under the situation where more particles accumulate in the near-wall region of the eroded surface, forming a buffering layer. The relationship between the particle size and the erosion is nonlinear, and the 1 mm particle causes the maximum pump erosion. The sharp particles cause more severe erosion in the pump because both the frequency of particle-wall collisions and the impact angle increase with the increasing sharpness of the particle.

Taxonomic revision and redescription of Microphysogobio hsinglungshanensis , the type species of Microphysogobio Mori , 1934 ( Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae ) - Zhi‐Xian Sun; Seigo Kawase; Rui Zhang; Ya‐Hui Zhao (Journal of Fish Biology, 2021)
The genus Microphysogobio was established by Mori [Mori, T. (1934). The fresh water fishes of Jehol. In Report of the first scientific expedition to Manchoukuo. 1: pp. 1–61] based on a single specimen ( Microphysogobio hsinglungshanensis ) collected in the Luanhe River basin, Xinglong County, Hebei Province, China. Because the genus characteristics were derived from its type species, M. hsinglungshanensis , the detailed description is essential. In addition, to distinguish M. hsinglungshanensis and Microphysogobio chinssuensis , the description based on holotype and more specimens is needed. M. hsinglungshanensis can be distinguished from all other congeners by the following combination of characters: mouth shallow arc shaped and inferior; medial pad on lower lip inverted trapezoid and usually grooved; barbel short, 6.9%–14.3% in head length; lateral‐line scales 38–39; ventral region between pectoral‐fin origin and pelvic‐fin origin scaleless; scales above lateral line 4–4.5; predorsal scales 10–11; vertebrae 4 + 32 – 34; caudal‐fin membrane with two or three rows of irregular black spots. The characteristics of this genus were redefined based on M. hsinglungshanensis in this study.

Swi6B , an alternative splicing isoform of Swi6, mediates the cell wall integrity of Ganoderma lucidum - Lingdan Lian; Guang Zhang; Jing Zhu; Yunxiao Wang; Lingshuai Wang; Rui Liu; Liang Shi; Ang Ren; Mingwen Zhao (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary The cell wall integrity (CWI) signaling activates the transcription factor Swi6 through a MAPK signaling cascade in response to cell wall stresses. In this study, we observed two different mRNA variants of swi6 ( GlSwi6A and GlSwi6B ) existed, due to alternative splicing. Besides, the expression level of GlSwi6B was higher than that of the GlSwi6A mRNA variant. The co‐silencing of GlSwi6A and GlSwi6B was more sensitive to cell wall stress compared with WT, resulting in a decrease of 78% and 76% in chitin and β‐1,3‐ d ‐glucan content respectively. However, only the overexpression of GlSwi6B decreased the sensitivity to cell wall stress and increased the content of chitin and β‐1,3‐ d ‐glucan compared with the WT strain. Furthermore, Y1H, EMSA and BLI assays revealed that the GlSwi6B could bind to the promoters of chitin and glucan synthesis genes (GL24454 and GL18134). However, the binding phenome has not been observed in the isoform GlSwi6A. Taken together, our results found two different transcripts generated from Swi6 , in which the alternative splice isoform of GlSwi6B participates in regulating the CWI of G . lucidum . This study provides the first insight into the alternative splicing isoform of GlSwi6B in the regulation of CWI signaling in fungi.

Lateral Hypothalamic Area Glutamatergic Neurons and Their Projections to the Lateral Habenula Modulate the Anesthetic Potency of Isoflurane in Mice - Shiyi Zhao; Rui Li; Huiming Li; Sa Wang; Xinxin Zhang; Dan Wang; Juan Guo; Huihui Li; Ao Li; Tingting Tong; Haixing Zhong; Qianzi Yang; et al. (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2021)
The lateral hypothalamic area (LHA) plays a pivotal role in regulating consciousness transition, in which orexinergic neurons, GABAergic neurons, and melanin-concentrating hormone neurons are involved. Glutamatergic neurons have a large population in the LHA, but their anesthesia-related effect has not been explored. Here, we found that genetic ablation of LHA glutamatergic neurons shortened the induction time and prolonged the recovery time of isoflurane anesthesia in mice. In contrast, chemogenetic activation of LHA glutamatergic neurons increased the time to anesthesia and decreased the time to recovery. Optogenetic activation of LHA glutamatergic neurons during the maintenance of anesthesia reduced the burst suppression pattern of the electroencephalogram (EEG) and shifted EEG features to an arousal pattern. Photostimulation of LHA glutamatergic projections to the lateral habenula (LHb) also facilitated the emergence from anesthesia and the transition of anesthesia depth to a lighter level. Collectively, LHA glutamatergic neurons and their projections to the LHb regulate anesthetic potency and EEG features.

Culturing novel and abundant pelagiphages in the ocean - Zefeng Zhang; Fang Qin; Feng Chen; Xiao Chu; Haiwei Luo; Rui Zhang; Sen Du; Zhen Tian; Yanlin Zhao (Environmental Microbiology, 2021)
Summary Viruses play a key role in biogeochemical cycling and host mortality, metabolism, physiology and evolution in the ocean. Viruses that infect the globally abundant SAR11 bacteria (pelagiphages) were reported to be an important component of the marine viral communities. Our current knowledge of pelagiphages is based on a few studies and therefore is limited. In this study, 10 new pelagiphages were isolated and genomically characterized. These pelagiphages represent the first cultivated representatives of four viral lineages only found in metagenomic sequencing datasets previously. Many abundant environmental viral sequences, i.e., single‐virus vSAG 37‐F6 and several Global Ocean Viromes (GOV) viral populations, are now further confirmed with these pelagiphages. Viromic read mapping reveals that these new pelagiphages are globally distributed in the ocean and can be detected throughout the water column. Remarkably, isolation of these pelagiphages contributed up to 12% of all viromic reads annotated in the analysed viromes. Altogether, this study has greatly broadened our understanding of pelagiphages regarding their morphology, genetic diversity, infection strategies, and distribution pattern. The availability of these newly isolated pelagiphages and their genome sequences will allow us to further explore their infectivities and ecological strategies.

Dynamic Variations in Brain Glycogen are Involved in Modulating Isoflurane Anesthesia in Mice - Ze Fan; Zhihao Zhang; Shiyi Zhao; Yuanyuan Zhu; Dong Guo; Bo Yang; Lixia Zhuo; Jiao Han; Rui Wang; Zongping Fang; Hailong Dong; Yan Li; et al. (Neuroscience Bulletin, 2020)
General anesthesia severely affects the metabolites in the brain. Glycogen, principally stored in astrocytes and providing the short-term delivery of substrates to neurons, has been implicated as an affected molecule. However, whether glycogen plays a pivotal role in modulating anesthesia–arousal remains unclear. Here, we demonstrated that isoflurane-anesthetized mice exhibited dynamic changes in the glycogen levels in various brain regions. Glycogen synthase (GS) and glycogen phosphorylase (GP), key enzymes of glycogen metabolism, showed increased activity after isoflurane exposure. Upon blocking glycogenolysis with 1,4-dideoxy-1,4-imino-D-arabinitol (DAB), a GP antagonist, we found a prolonged time of emergence from anesthesia and an enhanced δ frequency in the EEG (electroencephalogram). In addition, augmented expression of glycogenolysis genes in glycogen phosphorylase, brain (Pygb) knock-in (Pygb H11/H11 ) mice resulted in delayed induction of anesthesia, a shortened emergence time, and a lower ratio of EEG-δ. Our findings revealed a role of brain glycogen in regulating anesthesia–arousal, providing a potential target for modulating anesthesia.

Long‐term active restoration of extremely degraded alpine grassland accelerated turnover and increased stability of soil carbon - Yanfu Bai; Lina Ma; Abraham A. Degen; Muhammad K. Rafiq; Yakov Kuzyakov; Jingxue Zhao; Rui Zhang; Tao Zhang; Wenyin Wang; Xiaogang Li; Ruijun Long; Zhanhuan Shang (Global Change Biology, 2020)
Soil nutrient contents and organic carbon (C) stability are key indicators for restoration of degraded grassland. However, the effects of long‐term active restoration of extremely degraded grassland on soil parameters have been equivocal. The aims of this study were to evaluate the impact of active restoration of degraded alpine grassland on: (a) soil organic matter (SOM) mineralization; and (b) the importance of biotic factors for temperature sensitivity ( Q 10 ) of SOM mineralization. Soils were sampled from intact, degraded and restored alpine grasslands at altitudes ranging between 3,900 and 4,200 m on the Tibetan Plateau. The samples were incubated at 5, 15 and 25°C, and Q 10 values of SOM mineralization were determined. Structural equation modeling was used to evaluate the importance of vegetation, soil physico‐chemical properties and microbial parameters for Q 10 regulation. The Q 10 of N mineralization was similar among intact, degraded and restored soils (0.84–1.24) and was higher in topsoil (1.09) than in subsoil (0.92). The best predictive factor of CO 2 ‐ Q 10 for intact grassland was microbial biomass, for degraded grassland was basal microbial respiration, and for restored grassland was soil bulk density. Restoration by planting vegetation decreased the Q 10 of SOM mineralization as soil bulk density, the most important negative predictor, increased in restored grassland. The Q 10 of SOM mineralization in topsoil was 14% higher than in subsoil because of higher microbial abundance and exo‐enzyme activities. The NH 4 + content was greatest in intact soil, while NO 3 − content was greatest in degraded soil. The SOM mineralization rate decreased with grassland degradation and increased after long‐term (>10 years) restoration. In conclusion, extremely degraded grassland needs proper long‐term management in active restoration projects, especially for improvement of soil nutrients in a harsh environment.

Isolation, identification and character analysis of Streptococcus dysgalactiae from Megalobrama terminalis - Fei Zhao; Shan He; Ai‐ping Tan; Xue‐zhong Guo; Lan Jiang; Cui Liu‐Fu; Yu‐ting Deng; Rui‐quan Zhang (Journal of Fish Diseases, 2020)
Pure bacterial cultures were isolated from different tissues of moribund Megalobrama terminalis from a high mortality event that occurred at a farm in Foshan, China. Two isolates (F2 and F3) were identified as Streptococcus dysgalactiae subsp. dysgalactiae based on morphological and biochemical detection as well as molecular analysis. In brain heart infusion broth, the best growth conditions of isolate F3 were 35ºC, salinity 5‰ and pH 7. Furthermore, infection with isolate F3 (1.2 × 10 6 CFU/fish) led to the death of M. terminalis and zebrafish ( Danio rerio ). However, isolate F3 had no obvious pathogenicity to tilapia (GIFT, Oreochromis niloticus ). When the water temperature was 29ºC, the corresponding mortality rates for zebrafish infected by isolate F3 were higher than those at 23ºC. Culture for 24 and 72 hr with isolate F3 resulted in the same mortality rates for zebrafish. The antimicrobial susceptibility assay revealed that isolate F3 was susceptible to ampicillin, florfenicol and several other antibiotics but resistant to nalidixic acid, streptomycin, sulfamethoxazole/trimethoprim, neomycin and amikacin. To our knowledge, this is the first report that S. dysgalactiae infected the subtropical freshwater fish M. terminalis , which indicates that this bacterium is a potential threat to subtropical freshwater fish.

Pelagiphages in the Podoviridae family integrate into host genomes - Yanlin Zhao; Fang Qin; Rui Zhang; Stephen J. Giovannoni; Zefeng Zhang; Jing Sun; Sen Du; Christopher Rensing (Environmental Microbiology, 2019)
Summary The Pelagibacterales order (SAR11) in Alphaproteobacteria dominates marine surface bacterioplankton communities, where it plays a key role in carbon and nutrient cycling. SAR11 phages, known as pelagiphages, are among the most abundant phages in the ocean. Four pelagiphages that infect Pelagibacter HTCC1062 have been reported. Here, we report 11 new pelagiphages in the Podoviridae family. Comparative genomics classified these pelagiphages into the HTVC019Pvirus genus, which includes the previously reported pelagiphages HTVC011P and HTVC019P. Phylogenomic analysis clustered HTVC019Pvirus pelagiphages into three subgroups. Integrases were identified in all but one HTVC019Pvirus genome. Site‐specific integration of HTVC019Pvirus pelagiphages into host tRNA genes was verified experimentally, demonstrating the capacity of these pelagiphages to propagate by both lytic and lysogenic infection. Evidence of pelagiphage integration was also retrieved from the Global Ocean Survey database, showing that prophages are found in natural SAR11 populations. HTVC019Pvirus pelagiphages could impact SAR11 populations by a variety of mechanisms, including mortality, genetic transduction and prophage‐induced viral immunity. HTVC019Pvirus pelagiphages are a rare example of cultured lysogenic phage that can be implicated in ecological processes on broad scales. These pelagiphages have the potential to become a useful model for investigating strategies of host infection and phage‐dependent horizontal gene transfer.
