摘要:
Light is one of the most important environmental factors for plant growth. In the production process of tung oil tree cultivation, due to the inappropriate growth of shading conditions, the lower branches are often dry and dead, which seriously affects the yield of tung oil trees. However, little is known about the key factors of light-induced tree photomorphogenesis. In this study, a total of 22 VfBBX family members were identified to provide a reference for candidate genes in tung tree seedlings. All members of the VfBBX family have different numbers of highly conserved B-box domains or CCT domains. Phylogenetic evolution clustered the VfBBX genes into four categories, and the highest density of members was on chromosome 6. Interspecific collinearity analysis suggested that there were six pairs of duplicate genes in VfBBX members, but the expression levels of all family members in different growth and development stages of the tung tree were significantly divergent. After different degrees of shading treatment and physiological data determination of tung tree seedlings, the differential expression level and chlorophyll synthesis genes correlation analysis revealed that VfBBX9 was a typical candidate nuclear localization transcription factor that was significantly differentially expressed in light response. This study systematically identified the VfBBX gene family and provided a reference for studying its molecular function, enhanced the theoretical basis for tung tree breeding, and identified excellent varieties.
摘要:
Our results highlight the regulatory role of the negative bacterial‐fungal association in enhancing the correlation between bacterial diversity and C mineralisation. This suggests that promoting short‐term successive planting in the management of Eucalyptus plantations can mitigate the impact of this association on SOC decomposition. Taken together, our study advances the understanding of bacterial‐fungal negative associations to mediate carbon mineralisation in Eucalyptus plantations, giving us a new insight into SOC cycling dynamics in artificial forests. Abstract Bacteria and fungi are core microorganisms in diverse ecosystems, and their cross‐kingdom interactions are considered key determinants of microbiome structure and ecosystem functioning. However, how bacterial‐fungal interactions mediate soil organic carbon (SOC) dynamics remains largely unexplored in the context of artificial forest ecosystems. Here, we characterised soil bacterial and fungal communities in four successive planting of Eucalyptus and compared them to a neighbouring evergreen broadleaf forest. Carbon (C) mineralisation combined with five C‐degrading enzymatic activities was investigated to determine the effects of successive planting of Eucalyptus on SOC dynamics. Our results indicated that successive planting of Eucalyptus significantly altered the diversity and structure of soil bacterial and fungal communities and increased the negative bacterial‐fungal associations. The bacterial diversity significantly decreased in all Eucalyptus plantations compared to the evergreen forest, while the fungal diversity showed the opposite trend. The ratio of negative bacterial‐fungal associations increased with successive planting of Eucalyptus due to the decrease in SOC, ammonia nitrogen (NH4+‐N), nitrate nitrogen (NO3−‐N) and available phosphorus (AP). Structural equation modelling indicated that the potential cross‐kingdom competition, based on the ratio of negative bacterial‐fungal correlations, was significantly negatively associated with the diversity of total bacteria and keystone bacteria, thereby increasing C‐degrading enzymatic activities and C mineralisation. Synthesis and applications: Our results highlight the regulatory role of the negative bacterial‐fungal association in enhancing the correlation between bacterial diversity and C mineralisation. This suggests that promoting short‐term successive planting in the management of Eucalyptus plantations can mitigate the impact of this association on SOC decomposition. Taken together, our study advances the understanding of bacterial‐fungal negative associations to mediate carbon mineralisation in Eucalyptus plantations, giving us a new insight into SOC cycling dynamics in artificial forests.

摘要:
Mountain ecosystems have obvious variations in environmental factors at small spatial scales and thus provide a natural platform for investigating climate change. To investigate the characteristics of extracellular enzymes and microbial metabolic limitations in the hostile environmental conditions of cold temperate mountain ecosystems, soil physicochemical properties and enzyme activities were measured in the 0–10 cm and 10–20 cm soil layers of Larix gmelinii forests at elevations of 830 m, 950 m, 1100 m, and 1300 m. Our results showed that altitude and soil depth had a significant effect on 1,4-β-glucosidase, 1,4-β-N-acetyl-glucosaminidase, leucine aminopeptidase, and acid phosphatase activities. Extracellular enzyme activities decreased with increasing altitude and soil depth. The stoichiometric ratio of soil C-, N-, and P-acquiring enzymes after logarithmic transformation was 1:1.27:0.72 across all altitudes and soil depths. The metabolism of the microorganisms was mainly limited by C and N, and a high C limitation was observed at higher-altitude sites. With increased soil depth, the N limitation gradually weakened. Moreover, soil bulk density and pH were the main factors affecting extracellular enzyme activities and microbial nutrient constraints. Our study revealed that the carbon and nitrogen limitation of soil microbes was induced by the variation in soil factors in a cold temperate mountain forest ecosystem. This finding provides important insights into the mechanism of microbial metabolic limitation in the face of climate change.

摘要:
The excessive usage of veterinary antibiotics has raised significant concerns regarding their environmental hazard and agricultural impact when entering surface water and soil. Animal waste serves as a primary source of organic fertilizer for intensive large-scale agricultural cultivation, including the widely utilized medicinal and edible plant, Polygonatum cyrtonem. In this study, we employed a novel plant stress tissue culture technology to investigate the toxic effects of tetracycline hydrochloride (TCH) and sulfadiazine (SDZ) on P. cyrtonema. TCH and SDZ exhibited varying degrees of influence on plant growth, photosynthesis, and the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging system. Flavonoid levels increased following exposure to TCH and SDZ. The biosynthesis and signaling pathways of the growth hormones auxin and gibberellic acid were suppressed by both antibiotics, while the salicylic acid-mediated plant stress response was specifically induced in the case of SDZ. Overall, the study unveiled both common and unique responses at physiological, biochemical, and molecular levels in P. cyrtonema following exposure to two distinct types of antibiotics, providing a foundational framework for comprehensively elucidating the precise toxic effects of antibiotics and the versatile adaptive mechanisms in plants.

摘要:
Tea-oil tree (Camelliaoleifera Abel.) is an important edible oil woody plant with a planting area over 3,800,000 hectares in southern China. Species of Diaporthe inhabit a wide range of plant hosts as plant pathogens, endophytes and saprobes. Here, we conducted an extensive field survey in Hainan Province to identify and characterise Diaporthe species associated with tea-oil leaf spots. As a result, eight isolates of Diaporthe were obtained from symptomatic C.oleifera leaves. These isolates were studied, based on morphological and phylogenetic analyses of partial ITS, cal, his3, tef1 and tub2 gene regions. Two new Diaporthe species (D.hainanensis and D.pseudofoliicola) were proposed and described herein.
摘要:
As one of the most productive ecosystems in the world, mangrove has a critical role to play in both the natural ecosystem and the human economic and social society. However, two thirds of the world's mangrove have been irreversibly damaged over the past 100years, as a result of ongoing human activities and climate change. In this paper, adopting Landsat for the past 36years as the data source, the detection of spatiotemporal changes of mangrove in southern China was carried out based on the Google Earth Engine (GEE) cloud platform using the LandTrendr algorithm. In addition, the attribution of mangrove disturbances was analyzed by a random forest algorithm. The results indicated the area of mangrove recovery (5174.64 hm(2)) was much larger than the area of mangrove disturbances (1625.40 hm(2)) over the 35-year period in the study area. The disturbances of mangrove in southern China were dominated by low and low-to-medium-level disturbances, with an area of 1009.89 hm(2), accounting for 57.50% of the total disturbances. The mangrove recovery was also dominated by low and low-to-medium-level recovery, with an area of 3239.19 hm(2), accounting for 62.61% of the total recovery area. Both human and natural factors interacted and influenced each other, together causing spatiotemporal disturbances of mangrove in southern China during 1986-2020. The mangrove disturbances in the Phase I (1986-2000) and Phase III (2011-2020) were characterized by human-induced (50.74% and 58.86%), such as construction of roads and aquaculture ponds. The mangrove disturbances in the Phase II (2001-2010) were dominated by natural factors (55.73%), such as tides, flooding, and species invasions. It was also observed that the area of mangrove recovery in southern China increased dramatically from 1986 to 2020 due to the promulgation and implementation of the Chinese government's policy on mangrove protection, as well as increased human awareness of mangrove wetland protection.

摘要:
Natural plants of Camellia (Theaceae) in Thailand are taxonomically revised with a key, a distribution map, descriptions, specimens examined, and figures of living plants and/or dry specimens. Nine taxa comprising seven species and two varieties are recognized, including C.caudata, C.connata, C.furfuracea, C.kissi, C.kissivar.confusa, C.laotica, C.sinensisvar.assamica, C.suddeeana, and C.taliensis. Camelliacaudata and C.laotica are new records to Thailand, and C.connata and C.suddeeana are endemic to the country. Formerly recorded C.pleurocarpa and C.tenii are excluded from Thai flora because of misidentification, and C.oleifera and C.sinensis are merely cultivated in the country. Morphological descriptions of C.connata and C.laotica are improved based on additional collections examined.
摘要:
Climate changes have dramatically affected forest succession. However, how trees at different successional stages respond to climate warming is unclear in the subtropics. Here, we compared the radial growth (RW) and xylem features of the early-successional stage Castanea mollissima and late-successional stage Quercus fabri in subtropical forests and assessed their response to climate changes. All parameters, including RW, number of vessels (VN), vessel density (VD), mean (MVA) and total (TVA) vessel area, percentage of conductive area within xylem (RCTA), theoretical (Kh) and xylem-specific (Ks) hydraulic conductivity, except for MVA of C. mollissima were significantly higher than those of Q. fabri. During the drought period, a notable adverse correlation between two cluster parameters of Q. fabri, associated with hydraulic safety and efficiency, suggested a pronounced hydraulic trade-off in Q. fabri under drought conditions. Castanea mollissima was more sensitive to climate and more prone to hydraulic failure than Q. fabri. Temperatures and moisture conditions positively and negatively affected the hydraulic efficiency-related parameters of C. mollissima. Moisture conditions in the previous summer and winter were significantly negatively and positively related to the radial growth of both species. The impact of generalized warming was not evident due to variations in hydraulic strategies and species characteristics, trade-offs between non-growing and growing season climates, and specific competition. If climate warming continues, C. mollissima growth will probably significantly decline due to the increasing risk of hydraulic failure. Warming may accelerate species replacement and forest succession in the study area by changing their lifespans and competitive relationships.
摘要:
Microorganisms regulate soil organic matter (SOM) formation through accumulation and decomposition of microbial necromass, which is directly and indirectly affected by elevated CO2 and N fertilization. We investigated the role of microorganisms in SOM formation by analyzing C-13 recovery in microorganisms and carbon pools in paddy soil under two CO2 levels, with and without N fertilization, after continuous (CO2)-C-13 labelling was stopped. Microbial turnover transferred C-13 from living microbial biomass (determined by the decrease in phospholipid fatty acids) to necromass (determined by the increase in amino sugars). C-13 incorporation in fungal living biomass and necromass was higher than that in bacteria. Bacterial turnover was faster than necromass decomposition, resulting in net necromass accumulation over time; fungal necromass remained stable. Elevated CO2 and N fertilization increased the net accumulation of bacterial, but not fungal, necromass. CO2 levels, but not N fertilization, significantly affected C-13 incorporation in SOM pools. Elevated CO2 increased C-13 in particulate organic matter via the roots, and in the mineral-associated organic matter (MAOM) via bacterial, but not fungal, necromass. Overall, bacterial necromass plays a dominant role in the MAOM formation response to elevated CO2 because bacteria are sensitive to elevated CO2.

摘要:
BACKGROUND: WD40 transcription factors are crucial in plant growth and developmental, significantly impacting plant growth regulation. This study investigates the WD40 transcription factor HmWDR68's role in developing the distinctive blue infertile flower colors in Hydrangea macrophylla 'Forever Summer'. METHODS AND RESULTS: The HmWDR68 gene was isolated by PCR, revealing an open reading frame of 1026 base pairs, which encodes 341 amino acids. Characterized by four WD40 motifs, HmWDR68 is a member of the WD40 family. Phylogenetic analysis indicates that HmWDR68 shares high homology with PsWD40 in Camellia sinensis and CsWD40 in Paeonia suffruticosa, both of which are integral in anthocyanin synthesis regulation. Quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis demonstrated that HmWDR68 expression in the blue infertile flowers of 'Forever Summer' hydrangea was significantly higher compared to other tissues and organs. Additionally, in various hydrangea varieties with differently colored infertile flowers, HmWDR68 expression was markedly elevated in comparison to other hydrangea varieties, correlating with the development of blue infertile flowers. Pearson correlation analysis revealed a significant association between HmWDR68 expression and the concentration of delphinidin 3-O-glucoside, as well as key genes involved in anthocyanin biosynthesis (HmF3H, HmC3'5'H, HmDFR, and HmANS) in the blue infertile flowers of 'Forever Summer' hydrangea (P < 0.01). CONCLUSION: These findings suggest HmWDR68 may specifically regulate blue infertile flower formation in hydrangea by enhancing delphinidin-3-O-glucoside synthesis, modulating expression of HmF3H, HmC3'5'H, HmDFR and HmANS. This study provides insights into HmWDR68's role in hydrangea's blue flowers development, offering a foundation for further research in this field.

摘要:
The estimation of forest above-ground biomass (AGB) can be significantly improved by leveraging remote sensing (RS) and deep learning (DL) techniques. In this process, it is crucial to obtain appropriate RS features and develop a suitable model. However, traditional methods such as random forest (RF) feature selection often fail to adequately consider the complex relationships within high-dimensional RS feature spaces. Moreover, challenges related to parameter selection and overfitting inherent in DL models may compromise the accuracy of AGB estimation. Therefore, this study proposes a novel framework based on freely available Sentinel-1 synthetic aperture radar (SAR) and Sentinel-2 optical data. Firstly, we designed new indices through the formula analogous with vegetation index calculation to integrate multidimensional spectral and structural information. Then, leveraging the simplicity of computational principles, a pigeon-inspired optimization algorithm (PIO) was introduced into a bi-directional long short-term memory neural network (PIO-BiLSTM), which achieved the set objective function through repeated iteration and validation to obtain the optimal model parameters. Finally, to verify the framework’s effect, we conducted experiments in two different tree species and compared another seven classical optimization algorithms and machine learning models. The results indicated that the new indices significantly improved the inversion accuracy of all models in both categories, and the PIO-BiLSTM model achieved the highest accuracy (Category-1: R2 = 0.8055, MAE = 8.8475 Mg·ha−1, RMSE = 12.2876 Mg·ha−1, relative RMSE = 18.1715%; Category-2: R2 = 0.7956, MAE = 1.7103 Mg·ha−1, RMSE = 2.2887 Mg·ha−1, relative RMSE = 9.3000%). Compared with existing methods, the proposed framework greatly reduced the labor costs in parameter selection, and its potential uncertainty also decreased by up to 9.0%. Furthermore, the proposed method has a strong generalization ability and is independent of tree species, indicating its great potential for future forest AGB inversion in wider regions with diverse forest types.

摘要:
Increasing population densities and urban sprawl have induced greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the soil, and the soil microbiota of urban forests play a critical role in the production and consumption of GHGs, supporting green development. However, the function and potential mechanism of soil bacteria in GHG emissions from forests during urbanization processes need to be better understood. Here, we measured the fluxes of carbon dioxide (CO(2)), methane (CH(4)), and nitrous oxide (N(2)O) in Cinnamomum camphora forest soils along an urbanization gradient. 16S amplicon and metagenomic sequencing approaches were employed to examine the structure and potential functions of the soil bacterial community involved in carbon (C) and nitrogen (N) cycling. In this study, the CH(4) and CO(2) emissions from urban forest soils (sites U and G) were significantly greater than those from suburban soils (sites S and M). The N(2)O emissions in the urban center (site U) were 24.0 % (G), 13.8% (S), and 13.5% (M) greater than those at the other three sites. These results were related to the increasing bacterial alpha diversity, interactions, and C and N cycling gene abundances (especially those involved in denitrification) in urban forest soils. Additionally, the soil pH and metal contents (K, Ca, Mg) affected key bacterial populations (such as Methylomirabilota, Acidobacteriota, and Proteobacteria) and indicators (napA, nosZ, nrfA, nifH) involved in reducing N(2)O emissions. The soil heavy metal contents (Fe, Cr, Pb) were the main contributors to CH(4) emissions, possibly by affecting methanogens (Desulfobacterota) and methanotrophic bacteria (Proteobacteria, Actinobacteriota, and Patescibacteria). Our study provides new insights into the benefits of conservation-minded urban planning and close-to-nature urban forest management and construction, which are conducive to mitigating GHG emissions and supporting urban sustainable development by mediating the core bacterial population.
摘要:
Climate change has intensified the effects of habitat fragmentation in many ecosystems, particularly exacerbated in riparian habitats. Therefore, there is an urgent need to identify keystone connectivity spots to ensure long-term conservation and sustainable management of riparian systems as they play a crucial role for landscape connectivity. This paper aims to identify critical areas for connectivity under two contrasting climate change scenarios (RCP 4.5 and RCP 8.5 models) for the years 2030, 2050 and 2100 and to group these critical areas by similar connectivity in keystone spots for sustainable management. A set of analyses comprising climate analysis, drainage network analysis, configuration of potential riparian habitats, riparian habitat connectivity, data clustering, and statistical analysis within a Spanish river basin (NW Spain) were applied. The node and link connectivity would be reduced under the two climate change scenarios (≈2.5 % and 4.4 % reduction, respectively), intensifying riparian habitat fragmentation. Furthermore, 51 different clusters (critical areas) were obtained and classified in five classes (keystone spots) with similar connectivity across the different scenarios of climate change. Each keystone spot obtained by hierarchical classification was associated with one or more climate scenarios. One of these keystone spots was especially susceptible to the worst climate change scenario. Key riparian connectivity spots will be crucial for the management and restoration of highly threatened riparian systems and to ensure long-term biodiversity conservation.
摘要:
Quercus glauca is a valuable natural resource with both economic and ecological values. It is one of the dominant forest tree species widely distributed in Southern China. As a perennial broadleaf plant, Q. glauca inevitably encounters numerous stresses from environment. Glutaredoxins (GRXs) are a kind of small oxidoreductases that play an important role in response to oxidative stress. CC-type GRXs also known as ROXYs are specific to land plants. In this study, we isolated a CC-type GRX gene, QgROXY1, from Q. glauca. Expression of QgROXY1 is induced by a variety of environmental stimuli. QgROXY1 protein localizes to both cytoplasm and nucleus; whereas the nucleus localized QgROXY1 could physically interact with the basic region/leucine zipper motif (bZIP) transcription factor AtTGA2 from Arabidopsis thaliana. Transgenic A. thaliana ectopically expressing QgROXY1 is hypersensitive to exogenously applied salicylic acid. Induction of plant defense gene is significantly impaired in QgROXY1 transgenic plants that results in enhanced susceptibility to infection of Botrytis cinerea pathogen, indicating the evolutionary conserved function among ROXY homologs in weedy and woody plants. This is the first described function for the ROXYs in tree plants. Through this case study, we demonstrated the feasibility and efficacy of molecular technology applied to characterization of gene function in tree species.

摘要:
Gold mineralization in the Jiaojia gold belt was formed in a structurally-dominant hydrothermal mineral system showing a close spatial association with the Jiaojia detachment fault. This study delves into the Jiaojia gold belt from the perspective of coupled spatial association and ore-forming processes by employing spatial analysis of three-dimensional (3D) models, 3D ore-forming numerical modeling, and 3D prospectivity modeling using machine learning techniques (random forest (RF) and multilayer perceptron (MLP)). The overarching goal is to gain insight into the structural-hydrothermal gold system and pinpoint potential areas of deep-seated gold deposits for future exploration endeavors. The spatial analysis of ore-controlling faults uncovers a close correlation between gold enrichment and specific fault geometrical attributes, including a dip angle ranging from 20 degrees to 40 degrees, minimal variations in dip angle (less than 5 degrees), and convex topographical features. These attributes likely stem from the influence of fault morphology on the flow and pooling of fluids. In conjunction with this, 3D ore-forming numerical modeling of structural deformation and fluid flow reveals that gold mineralization is intertwined with moderate volumetric strain and shear strain of rock and fluid divergence. This interaction seems particularly pronounced in areas characterized by channel-like or gentle features. Consequently, it is plausible that gold distribution in the Jiaojia region is the outcome of a comprehensive coupling process involving strain localization, rock deformation, fluid flow, heat transfer and/or interaction. The deep gold prospectivity models of RF and MLP for the Jiaojia district jointly using the predictive variables of fault geometry features and ore-forming simulation data (volume strain, shear strain, temperature variation, and fluid flux) exhibit higher AUC (area under the curve) values compared to models employing individual predictor variable datasets. This improvement underscores their enhanced predictive capability. The prospectivity results thus were used for identifying gold potential within the Jiaojia region, where five promising gold targets at depth were ultimately determined.
摘要:
Extensive research has been conducted on Camellia oleifera Abel., a cultivar predominantly distributed in China, to investigate its phytochemical composition, owning to its potential as an edible oil crop. Pentacyclic triterpene saponins, as essential active constituents, play a significant role in contributing to the pharmacological effects of this cultivar. The saponins derived from C. oleifera (CoS) offer a diverse array of bioactivity benefits, including antineoplastic/bactericidal/inflammatory properties, cardiovascular protection, neuroprotection, as well as hypoglycemic and hypolipidemic effects. This review presents a comprehensive analysis of the isolation and pharmacological properties of CoS. Specially, we attempt to reveal the antitumor structure-activity relationship (SAR) of CoS-derived triterpenoids. The active substitution sites of CoS, namely, C-3, C-15, C-16, C-21, C-22, C-23, and C-28 pentacyclic triterpenoids, make it a unique and highly valuable substance with significant medicinal and culinary applications. As such, CoS can play a critical role in transforming people's lives, providing unique medicinal benefits, and contributing to the advancement of both medicine and cuisine.
摘要:
Knots in wood have a substantial impact on both the physical and mechanical properties of derived products. It is necessary to study their effect on the mechanical properties of wood and understand the mechanisms behind the effect. The modulus of elasticity (MOE) and modulus of rupture (MOR) of specimens without knots and with knots are measured using the three-point bending test. The size and position of knots are recorded. The specimens with knots are analyzed according to failure not at knots and failure at knots. For specimens with failure at knots, they are further divided into two sub-groups, i.e., failure around knots (FK-A) or failure in knots (FK-I).
