Phenolic compounds, abundant secondary metabolites in plants, profoundly influence soil ecosystems, plant growth, and interactions with herbivores. In this study, we explore the intricate relationships between phenolics, microbes, gall formation Ageratina adenophora (A. adenophora), an invasive species China known for its allelopathic traits. Using metabolomic microbial profiling, significant differences composition metabolite profiles were observed bulk rhizosphere samples. Phenolics...
Two strains of Methanogenium bourgense, MS2T (T = type strain) and LX1, were characterized, and, based in part on previously published DNA hybridization data, this species was transferred to a new genus, Methanoculleus, as Methanoculleus bourgense comb. nov. marisnigri JR1T strain marisnigri, AN8, also characterized. This the genus et emend., its description emended indicate that has temperature optimum near 40°C, is halotolerant, slightly alkaliphilic; contrast, previous organism indicates...
La-based metal oxide materials are environmentally friendly and show promise for phosphate adsorption. A series of Al-doped perovskite oxides, such as LaFexAl1-xO3, were prepared using a facile citric acid-assisted sol-gel method. The characterization results demonstrated that with optimized Al doping, there was significant increase in the specific surface area increased defect content LaFexAl1-xO3. Adsorption experiments showed performance removal by LaFexAl1-xO3 largely enhanced due to...
The most common ladybird beetle, Coccinella septempunctata L., is an excellent predator of crop pests such as aphids and white flies, it shows a wide range adaptability, large appetite high reproductive ability. Diapause research plays important role in the artificial propagation shelf-life extension insect products. Although this lady beetle's regulatory, physiological biochemical characteristics diapause period are well understood, molecular mechanism remains unknown. Therefore, we...
Improved knowledge on the regulation of reproductive diapause in Coccinella septempunctata, an important predator aphids, is crucial for improving shelf-life and mass production ladybeetles. In many insects, absence juvenile hormone (JH) a central regulator diapause. JH principally degraded by esterase (JHE) epoxide hydrolase (JHEH). Previous studies have shown that genes encoding these enzymes were upregulated early C. but whether increased degradation contributes to reduction levels...
The ladybeetle, Coccinella septempunctata, an important predator, is widely used to control aphids, whiteflies, mites, thrips, and lepidopteran pests. Diapause technology key extending C. septempunctata shelf-life commercialization. Lipid accumulation a major feature of reproductive diapause, but the function AKH signaling as regulator lipid mobilization in diapause remains unclear. This study aimed identify characterize AKHR genes, clarify their functions diapause.
Diapause enables insects to survive unfavorable conditions through metabolic and developmental adjustments. We investigated regulation during reproductive diapause in the predatory stinkbug Arma chinensis using transcriptomic metabolomic analyses. Our study revealed 9,254 differentially expressed genes 493 significantly changed metabolites across stages. Key pathways including glutathione metabolism, TCA cycle, glycolysis, lipid metabolism underwent substantial reorganization. The...
ABSTRACT Bacillus velezensis SQR9 or Trichoderma harzianum NJAU4742‐amended bioorganic fertilizers might significantly improve the soil microbial community and crop yields. However, mechanisms these microorganisms act are far away from distinctness. We combined amplicon sequencing with culturable approaches to investigate effects of on pear tree growth, rhizosphere nutrients mechanisms. The T4742 treatments increased total biomass trees by 68% 84%, respectively, compared conventional organic...
Understanding predator-prey and predator-predator interactions is essential for evaluating the effectiveness of biocontrol agents developing efficient pest management strategies. This study investigates effects prey species, predator life stage, density on predatory efficiency generalist Rhynocoris fuscipes (Fabricius) under semi-field conditions. Both nymphs adults R. consumed significantly more second-instar larvae S. frugiperda than litura or M. separata. Notably, fifth-instar exhibited...
Iron bioavailability is often limited especially in calcareous soils. Trichoderma harzianum strongly improves plant iron uptake and growth However, little known about the mechanisms by which T. mobilizes Here, model strain NJAU4742 a synthetic microbial community (SynCom) was used to show that efficacy of enhancing nutrition soils depends on soil microbiome. Enhanced iron-mobilization functions SynCom were observed presence NJAU4742. Concurrently, improved capacity enriching strains are able...
In integrated pest management (IPM), achieving a balance between biological and chemical control strategies is essential for effective control. Therefore, it crucial to assess the impact of pesticides on natural enemies. Neonicotinoid insecticides, particularly dinotefuran, are among most widely used insecticides globally. This study investigated acute toxicity dinotefuran adult predatory enemy Picromerus lewisi evaluated its effects offspring growth predation. The results showed that 72 h...
