The Antiviral Activity and Underlying Mechanisms of Quercetin in Combating Largemouth Bass Virus InfectionNARA Subscribed
Largemouth bass virus (LMBV), a member of the Ranavirus genus within the Iridoviridae family, is a significant pathogen causing high mortality and substantial economic losses in largemouth bass aquaculture. Therefore, developing effective antiviral agents against this viral infection is crucial for the largemouth bass aquaculture industry. Quercetin, a widely utilised flavonoid known for its therapeutic and prophylactic proper...
Fish diversity and community turnover across protection zones in multiuse marine protected areasNARA Subscribed
Multiuse marine protected areas (MMPAs) with varying levels of protection in different zones are increasingly being adopted to balance conservation and socioeconomic goals. However, the effect of these zone‐based strategies on fish diversity is not well understood. We used environmental DNA surveys across zones with different protection levels (fully protected, highly protected, and lightly protected) in three typical Chinese...
Contrasting Effects of Nitrogen Input on Soil Carbon Pools in Arid and Humid ClimatesNARA Subscribed
Nitrogen (N) input affects soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics and storage by specifically influencing the light (LFOC) and heavy fractions of organic C (HFOC). While the effects of N input on SOC pools are known, its specific influence in arid and humid regions remains unresolved, although it is critically important to predict carbon–climate feedback and SOC accumulation. We conducted a meta‐analysis of 881 paired observations...
NOD‐like receptors (NLRs) serve as crucial innate immune sensors in multicellular organisms, recognizing diverse pathogen‐associated components and regulating immune responses such as nuclear factor kappa B (NF‐κB) signalling and inflammatory pathways. To elucidate the roles of NLRC3 , NLRC5 and NLRX1 in the innate immunity of the Mastacembelus armatus , this study first characterized these genes and examined their response to...
Aridity Drives the Response of Soil Organic Carbon and Inorganic Carbon to Drought in CroplandNARA Subscribed
In the face of a warming climate and increasing extreme weather events, understanding the trade‐offs between soil organic carbon (SOC) and inorganic carbon (SIC) under drought is critical for accurately assessing global soil carbon (C) sequestration. However, previous research has predominantly focused on SOC, despite emerging evidence indicating that SIC is highly sensitive to soil moisture dynamics. Using global soil profile...
Increased Mineral‐Associated Organic Carbon and Persistent Molecules in Allochthonous Blue Carbon EcosystemsNARA Subscribed
Coastal wetlands contain very large carbon (C) stocks—termed as blue C—and their management has emerged as a promising nature‐based solution for climate adaptation and mitigation. The interactions among sources, pools, and molecular compositions of soil organic C (SOC) within blue C ecosystems (BCEs) remain elusive. Here, we explore these interactions along an 18,000 km long coastal line of salt marshes, mangroves, and seagras...
One of the key goals of ecology is to understand how communities are assembled. The species co‐existence theory suggests that community β‐diversity is influenced by species pool and community assembly processes, such as environmental filtering, dispersal events, ecological drift and biotic interactions. However, it remains unclear whether there are similar β‐diversity patterns among different soil microbial groups and whether...
Coastal wetlands play an important role in regulating atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO 2 ) concentrations and contribute significantly to climate change mitigation. However, climate change, reclamation, and restoration have been causing substantial changes in coastal wetland areas and carbon exchange in China during recent decades. Here we compiled a carbon flux database consisting of 15 coastal wetland sites to assess the magni...
Open offshore areas boast strong physical self‐purification capacity and abundant non‐fossil energy resources, such as wind, waves, and solar energy. Consequently, the global community anticipates nearshore aquaculture to transition towards offshore to help increase production, alleviate eutrophication, and reduce greenhouse gas emissions. To date, China has constructed over 40 sets of deeper‐offshore aquaculture (DOA) infrast...
Phenotypic characteristics and immune response of Procypris merus following challenge with aquatic isolate of Klebsiella pneumoniaeNARA Subscribed
Currently, aquaculture is a relatively mature industry; however, disease problems are continuously threatening the industry and hindering its development to a certain extent. Klebsiella pneumoniae is one of the zoonotic bacteria widely present in different hosts and has caused some degree of harm to the aquaculture industry, posing a potential threat to the water environment and indirectly also affecting human food safety issu...
Environmental contamination with SARS‐CoV ‐2 in COVID ‐19 hospitals in Wuhan, China, 2020NARA Subscribed
Summary Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID‐19) pandemic has caused high number of infections and deaths of healthcare workers globally. Distribution and possible transmission route of SARS‐CoV‐2 in hospital environment should be clarified. We herein collected 431 environmental (391 surface and 40 air) samples in the intensive care unit (ICU) and general wards (GWs) of three hospitals in Wuhan, China from February 21 to March 4, 2...
Leaf senescence is known to be regulated by the plant hormone ethylene, but how leaf lifespan responds to global environmental change and links to ecosystem‐level responses remains largely unexplored. Here we investigated the effects of climate warming and nitrogen addition on plant functional traits, plant hormone ethylene and net primary production in a 13‐year field experiment in a desert steppe. Across the last 3 years of...
Summary Fungi can parasitize microalgae, exerting profound impacts on both the aquatic ecosystems and microalgal mass cultures. In this study, the unicellular green alga Haematococcus pluvialis and the blastocladialean fungus Paraphysoderma sedebokerense were used as a model system to address the mechanisms underlying the fungal parasitism on the algal host. High‐throughput metabolic assay indicated that P . sedebokerense can...
Globally, China has the largest scale of kelp cultivation and production operations. However, its kelp aquaculture industry is suffering from declining germplasm diversity, degradation of agronomic traits, the presence of polluted environments, changing ocean conditions and increasing anthropological interference. This review covers two of the most commercially important kelp species in China, viz. Saccharina japonica and Unda...

Aim Pleistocene climate and associated environmental changes have influenced phylogeographic patterns of many species. These not only depend on a species’ life history but also vary regionally. Consequently, populations of widespread species that occur in several biomes might display different evolutionary trajectories. We aimed to identify regional drivers of diversification in the common pheasant, a widely distributed ecolog...
TRY plant trait database – enhanced coverage and open accessNARA Subscribed
Plant traits—the morphological, anatomical, physiological, biochemical and phenological characteristics of plants—determine how plants respond to environmental factors, affect other trophic levels, and influence ecosystem properties and their benefits and detriments to people. Plant trait data thus represent the basis for a vast area of research spanning from evolutionary biology, community and functional ecology, to biodivers...
Plants alter their vertical root distribution rather than biomass allocation in response to changing precipitationNARA Subscribed
Elucidating the variation of allocation pattern of ecosystem net primary productivity ( NPP ) and its underlying mechanisms is critically important for understanding the changes of aboveground and belowground ecosystem functions. Under optimal partitioning theory, plants should allocate more NPP to the organ that acquires the most limiting resource, and this expectation has been widely used to explain and predict NPP allocatio...
Direct and indirect effects of climate on richness drive the latitudinal diversity gradient in forest treesNARA Subscribed
Climate is widely recognised as an important determinant of the latitudinal diversity gradient. However, most existing studies make no distinction between direct and indirect effects of climate, which substantially hinders our understanding of how climate constrains biodiversity globally. Using data from 35 large forest plots, we test hypothesised relationships amongst climate, topography, forest structural attributes (stem ab...

Interannual variation in methane emissions from tropical wetlands triggered by repeated El Niño Southern OscillationNARA Subscribed
Methane (CH 4 ) emissions from tropical wetlands contribute 60%–80% of global natural wetland CH 4 emissions. Decreased wetland CH 4 emissions can act as a negative feedback mechanism for future climate warming and vice versa. The impact of the El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) on CH 4 emissions from wetlands remains poorly quantified at both regional and global scales, and El Niño events are expected to become more severe b...
Oceanic currents drove population genetic connectivity of the brown alga Sargassum thunbergii in the north‐west PacificNARA Subscribed
Aim Oceanic currents are among the most pervasive hydrodynamic features in shaping community dynamics, population connectivity and phylogeographical structure of intertidal species. Here, we test whether population structure and biogeographical gradients of genetic diversity in the brown alga Sargassum thunbergii are correlated with oceanic currents in the north‐west Pacific ( NWP ). Location North‐west Pacific (25.07°N–43.36°...
Little is known about the long‐term climatic evolution of north‐eastern (NE) China, because well‐preserved terrestrial paleoenvironmental archives are scarce in this vast region. The extensive loess deposits in the Chifeng region are the thickest and most complete loess–paleosol sequence in NE China, and have significant potential for reconstructing the paleoclimate of the region. Here, we present new high‐resolution magnetost...
