Communities of zooplankton, a critical portion aquatic ecosystems, can be adversely affected by contamination resulting from human activities. Understanding the influence environmental change on zooplankton communities under field-conditions is hindered traditional labor-intensive approaches that are prone to taxonomic and enumeration mistakes. Here, metabarcoding cytochrome c oxidase I (COI) region mitochondrial DNA was used characterize genetic diversity zooplankton. The species...

DNA methylation abnormality is closely related to tumor occurrence and development. Chemical inhibitors targeting methyltransferase (DNMTis) have been used in treating cancer. However, the impact of DNMTis on antitumor immunity has not well elucidated. In this study, we show that zebularine (a demethylating agent) treatment cancer cells led increased levels interferon response a cyclic guanosine monophosphate-AMP (cGAMP) synthase (cGAS)- stimulator genes (STING)-dependent manner. This also...

Heavy metals (HMs) have become a major environmental pollutant threatening ecosystems and human health. Although hyperaccumulators provide viable alternative for the bioremediation of HMs, potential phytoremediation is often limited by small biomass slow growth rate HM toxicity to plants. Here, plant growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB)-assisted was used enhance HM-contaminated soils. A PGPB with HM-tolerant (HMT-PGPB), Bacillus sp. PGP15 isolated from rhizosphere cadmium (Cd) hyperaccumulator,...

Natural grassland productivity, which is based on an individual plant's aboveground biomass (AB) and its interaction with herbivores, can obviously affect terrestrial ecosystem services the grassland's agricultural production. As plant traits have been linked to both AB success, they may provide a useful approach understand changes in plants productivity response grazing generic level. Unfortunately, current lack of studies how affected by herbivores leaves major gap our understanding...

Staphylococcus aureus or MRSA (Methicillin Resistant S. aureus), is an acquired pathogen and the primary cause of nosocomial infections worldwide. In aureus, teichoic acid essential component cell wall, its biosynthesis not yet well characterized. Studies in Bacillus subtilis have discovered two different pathways biosynthesis, strains W23 168 respectively, namely ribitol (tar) glycerol (tag). The genes involved these are also characterized, tarA, tarB, tarD, tarI, tarJ, tarK, tarL for tar...

Selenium (Se) is essential for the basic functions of life, but low daily intake Se urges us to find reliable ways increase food content. Plant-growth-promoting bacteria (PGPB) have shown potential in enhancing plant growth and accumulation. In this study, soils collected from a tailing were used isolate Se-tolerant PGPB. The results showed that total three strains identified. Strain LWS1, belonging Priestia sp., grew well M9 medium exhibited typical PGP characteristics by an IAA-production...

The wild yak (Bos mutus) is an endemic and flagship species on the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) of China. Because this aggressive huge ungulate living in Altun National Nature Reserve (ANNR), monitoring surveying yaks at a close distance very difficult. An Unmanned Aerial Vehicle (UAV) offers useful effective tool to monitor survey yaks. We used approach Kumkury Desert ANNR, which highest desert world. results showed that proportion (1) adult bulls, (2) young bulls cows, (3) calves was...

Abstract The growth rate hypothesis (GRH) posits an increase in ribosomal ribonucleic acid (RNA) content, and therefore cellular phosphorus (P), with increasing rate. There is evidence that the GRH may not apply to phytoplankton under all conditions. Here, we experimentally controlled four conditions (light, temperature, pH, CO 2 ) alter of Emiliania huxleyi , a biogeochemically important coccolithophorid, monitored changes RNA, protein, carbohydrate content. We show caused by light,...

In this study, the lactic acid bacterial population of Qula cheese from Gansu and Sichuan provinces China were isolated identified. Eight strains Streptococcus thermophilus isolated, which five selected for further characterization based on their fermentation properties. The changes in a number parameters, including titration acidity, pH, viable counts, PrtS protease activity production acetaldehyde, diacetyl organic acid, monitored during storage fermented milks produced by respective...
