Summary Salinity and drought are major environmental factors limiting the growth productivity of alfalfa worldwide as this economically important legume forage is sensitive to these kinds abiotic stress. In study, transgenic lines expressing both tonoplast NXH H + ‐ PP ase genes, Zx NHX VP 1‐1 from xerophyte Zygophyllum xanthoxylum L., were produced via Agrobacterium tumefaciens ‐mediated transformation. Compared with wild‐type ( WT ) plants, plants co‐expressing grew better greater plant...
Abstract Express delivery services are booming in both developed and emerging economies due to their low cost, convenience, the fast growth online shopping. The increasing environmental impacts of express mitigation potentials, however, remain largely unexplored. Here we addressed such a gap for China, country which is expanding retail sales rapidly. We found total 8.8 Mt scrap packaging materials were generated by sector China 2018. Its transportation-related GHG emissions surged from 0.3...
When plants are subjected to various biotic and abiotic stresses, the root system responds actively by secreting different types amounts of bioactive compounds, while affects structure rhizosphere soil bacterial community. Therefore, understanding plant–soil-microbial interactions, especially strength microbial mediated exudates is essential. A short-term experiment was conducted under drought salt stress investigate interaction between Nitraria tangutorum communities. We found that...
Soil microbes are among the most complex and diverse communities on Earth, actively participating in biogeochemical cycles while responding positively to environmental changes. Saprophytic fungi important factors soil carbon cycle, response driving grassland forestland farmland conversion desert steppe still poorly understood. Therefore, we analyzed microbial community structure saprophytic fungal grasslands, shrub lands, farmlands typical areas of northwest China. It was found that...
Climate change affects vegetation growth around the world. It has been recognized that effect of climate on exhibits hysteresis. However, duration and intensity time-lag factors is still difficult to quantify. We analyzed impacts in 32 major cities China from 2010 2016. Vegetation conditions were characterized using enhanced index (EVI) datasets Moderate Resolution Imaging Spectrometer (MODIS). The data extracted Daily Value Data Set Surface (V3.0), including precipitation (PRE; mm), air...
The Olympics park in Beijing, 16 August 2019 (Picture by Kai Hu). relationship between environmental quality and economic growth has been a hot topic for decades. After years of rapid industrialization urbanization, China’s challenges are approaching turning point. Following the principles ecological civilization construction, China is on its way to maintaining high-quality green development. On 10 June 2020, Chinese Government reported key findings Second National General Survey Pollution...
Soil microbes act as “players” in regulating biogeochemical cycles, whereas environmental heterogeneity drives microbial community assembly patterns and is influenced by stochastic deterministic ecological processes. Currently, the limited understanding of soil interactions under temperate forest stand differences pose a challenge studying involvement during succession from coniferous to broad-leaved forests. This study investigated changes bacterial fungal diversity structure at regional...
As carriers of direct contact between plants and the atmospheric environment, microbiomes phyllosphere microorganisms are increasingly recognized as an important area study. Salt secretion triggered by salt-secreting halophytes elicits changes in community structure functions microorganisms, often provides positive feedback to individual plant/community environment. In this study, contents Na+ K+ rhizosphere, plant Tamarix chinensis were increased under 200 mmol/L NaCl stress. The increase...
Salinization, desertification, and soil nutrient deprivation are threatening the production of alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) in northern China. We have previously generated T0 transgenic co-overexpressing Zygophyllum xanthoxylum ZxNHX ZxVP1-1 genes with enhanced salt drought tolerance. To further develop this excellent breeding material into new forage cultivar, stress tolerance, productivity, quality T1 (GM) were assessed study. The GM inherited traits tolerance from generation. Most...
<title>Abstract</title> Siberian wildrye (Elymus sibiricus) is a xero-mesophytic forage grass with high nutritional quality and stress tolerance. Among its numerous germplasm resources, some possess superior drought resistance. In this study, we investigated the physiological differences between drought-tolerant genotype (DT) drought-sensitive (DS) leaves under stress. The results showed that stress, DT maintained lower leaf water potential for absorption, sustained higher photosynthetic...
Abstract Different land‐use practices in temperate forests strongly affect soil quality and microbial communities, whereas the assembly interactions of functional fungal communities provide positive feedback. Therefore, effects forest ecosystem degradation on composition community nutrient cycling are particular importance. We studied ecosystems Liupanshan Mountains northwestern part Loess Plateau analyzed relationship under different land use (natural [NF], plantation forest, farmland...
Land conversion to agriculture is an important factor affecting soil ecological processes in the desert grasslands of northern China. However, fungal-community structure and function response remain unclear. In this study, grassland, artificial shrubland, land were investigated western part Mu Us Sandland (Yanchi, Ningxia; Dingbian, Shaanxi). We found that significantly increased total carbon, nitrogen, phosphorus, available phosphorous potassium contents. early stage agricultural (April),...
