The Zhangpu biota provides a new insight into biodiversity redistribution during the Mid-Miocene Climatic Optimum.
Abstract. The Fenwei Plain, home to 50 million people in central China, is one of the most polluted regions China. In 2018, Plain was designated as three key for “Blue Sky Protection Campaign”, along with Beijing–Tianjin–Hebei (BTH) and Yangtze River Delta (YRD) regions. However, compared BTH YRD, our understanding current status air pollution limited partly due a lack detailed analysis transformation from precursor gases secondary products including organic aerosol (SOA) ozone. Through 7...
The fossil record of Lauraceae can be traced back to the Early Cretaceous eastern Asia based on flowers. Here, we refer a number new occurrences leaf and fruit fossils from Middle Miocene Zhangpu, Fujian, China, seven species. These data provide evidence supporting fact that diverse subtropical, or tropical, Lauraceae-dominated evergreen forest surrounded this region 15 million years ago (Mya). presented in paper for evolution group as well materials enable study Fujian Province Neogene...
Well-preserved Ginkgo pollen organs are analyzed from the Middle Jurassic Xishanyao Formation of Turpan–Hami Basin, Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region, northwestern China, and described as a new species, hamiensis Z.X. Wang et B.N. Sun sp. nov. The immature male cones cylindrical catkin-like, with two longitudinal stripes on stalk. sacs shaped like long oval fused together for each microsporophyll, microsporophyll tip is triangular cystidium. grains oblong or fusiform monocolpate; both ends...
Abstract A new Quercus (Fagaceae) morphospecies is described based on well‐preserved fossil leaves. The fossils were collected from Yangyi Formation of the Upper Pliocene at coalmine, Baoshan, western Yunnan, China. Details microstructure mesophyll tissue are preserved because lithification was not complete. laminas possess typical characteristics sect Heterobalanus : quite thick and coriaceous cuticle; secondary veins bifurcating near margin in middle top leaf; upper epidermis with adaxial...
A well-preserved Macaranga leaf fossil from the middle Miocene Fotan Group of Zhangpu County, Fujian, South-eastern China is examined and described as a new species, zhangpuensis Z.X. Wang et B.N. Sun sp. nov. The present species represents highest latitudinal distribution reliable in world, we first with detailed cuticular characteristics China. Based on global palaeogeographic Macaranga, infer that genus probably originated during Oligocene Africa spread to India then South China, further...
Some well‐preserved Garcinia leaves were collected from middle Miocene deposits the Fotan Group of Zhangpu County, Fujian, southeast China. Based on leaf architecture and cuticular characteristics, a new species was established, zhangpuensis sp. nov. The elliptic with an acute apex, they had major secondary vein meeting adjacent to form intramarginal vein, stomata elliptical or rounded. Fossil characteristics compared those extant other fossil hitherto described in this genus. Here, we...
In order to reduce the negative effects caused by oxidative stress on broilers, it is particularly important find ways alleviate stress. As a natural plant extract, L-theanine has variety of biological effects, such as improving antioxidant capacity, promoting growth, and enhancing immunity antitumor. This trial evaluated dietary supplementation growth performance, antioxidation, meat quality, intestinal microflora in 817 White Feather Broilers. A total 108 21-day-old broilers with similar...
Abstract Cupressinocladus Seward is a fossil genus of conifers and conifer fossils with reproductive organs are very rare. In general, it difficult to understand the natural affinities other conifers. this paper, new species, guyangensis P.H. Jin et B.N. Sun sp. nov., reported based on branches immature female cones from Lower Cretaceous Guyang Formation Basin in Inner Mongolia, northern China. The foliage shoots decussate. Leaves decussate, imbricate, scale‐like, weakly dimorphic, bear...
Several studies have investigated both the paleoclimate and well-preserved fossil remains from middle Miocene found in China's Fujian Province. This study describes two new species of Meliolinites, including their fungal hyphae, reproductive structures, spores. The distribution modern Meliolaceae indicates that they live warm, humid, subtropical to tropical climates. Moreover, leaves epiphyllous remains, indicate prevalence a climate this area during Miocene. In addition, it was observed...
Neogene plant fossils from low latitudes of China are critical for understanding the history diversity and paleoenvironment in that region. Here we describe well-preserved Cercis fruit Fotan Group (~14.7 Ma) Fujian, southeastern China. Based on detailed morphological anatomical comparisons with extant fossil species, refer to these as zhangpuensis sp. nov. zhangpuensis, most similar C. chinensis A.V. Bunge among species genus. The currently described is southmost record genus Asia. In...
