Summary Four species of Spartina ( anglica , S. alterniflora patens and cynosuroides ) have been introduced to China, but currently only the first three are present two successfully reproduce on Chinese coast. were China from England in 1963 United States 1979, respectively. Today, has expanded its coverage more than 112 000 ha declined <50 ha. This is compared with 260 over 36 1985. The fates dramatic expansion significant decline different those other locations throughout world. Factors...
The conversion of etioplasts into chloroplasts in germinating cotyledons is a crucial transition for higher plants, enabling photoautotrophic growth upon illumination. Tight coordination chlorophyll biosynthesis and photosynthetic complex assembly critical this process. ORANGE (OR), DnaJ-like zinc finger domain-containing protein, was reported to trigger the biogenesis carotenoid-accumulating plastids by promoting carotenoid sequestration. Both nuclear plastidic localizations OR have been...
The aquatic macrophyte Brasenia schreberi J. F. Gmel., widely cultivated in China, faces challenges including damage from pests such as Galerucella birmanica Jacoby. This study investigated the population dynamics and spatial distribution of G. a B. aquaculture system May to November. occurred for several generations, first peaked July, with abundant eggs, larvae, pupae adults all being recorded. beetles were nearly absent during peak summer heat August, but rebounded extraordinary...
Background The prevalence of overactive bladder (OAB) is increasing in the elderly population and there growing evidence that malnutrition affects urinary system. Despite this, research on relationship between nutritional factors OAB remains limited. Methods We included 17,161 individuals from National Health Nutrition Examination Survey conducted 2005 2018. Overactive Bladder Symptom Scores (OABSS) were utilized to assess symptoms OAB. A multifactorial logistic regression analysis was...
The aquatic vegetable Brasenia schreberi Gmel. (Nymphaeales: Cabombaceae), widely cultivated in China, faces severe challenges from pest disturbances. With a field investigation, G. birmanica occurred for several generations the mono-cultivation system. first visual peak on leaf surfaces appeared July, with eggs, larvae, pupae and adults all being recorded. highest number of flying were trapped August reverse to absence beetles leaves, followed by an extraordinary high eggs September....
Carotenoids are essential phytonutrients for the human body. Higher plants usually synthesize and accumulate carotenoids in their leaves, flowers, fruits. Most have either two β-rings on both ends or β- ε-rings separately of molecules synthesized from acyclic lycopene as precursor. Lycopene ε-cyclases (LCYB LCYE, respectively) catalyze ε-cyclization lycopene, respectively, regulate metabolic flux to its downstream β,β-branches (by LCYB alone) β,ε-branches LCYE LCYB). In this study, we...
The biosynthesis of chlorophylls and carotenoids the assembly thylakoid membranes are critical for photoautotrophic growth plants. Different factors involved in these two processes. In recent years, members DnaJ-like zinc finger domain proteins have been found to take part biogenesis and/or maintenance plastids. One member this family proteins, PSA2, was recently localize lumen regulate accumulation photosystem I. study, we report that silencing PSA2 Arabidopsis thaliana resulted variegated...
Abstract Asparagine-linked glycosylation (N-glycosylation) is one of the most important protein modifications in eukaryotes, affecting folding, transport, and function a wide range proteins. However, little known about roles N-glycosylation development stomata plants. In present study, we provide evidence that Arabidopsis stt3a-2 mutant, defective oligosaccharyltransferase catalytic subunit STT3, has greater transpirational water loss weaker drought avoidance, accompanied by aberrant...
Abstract Many traditional Chinese medicines have been used as immunomodulators that act either immunosuppressants or immunostimulators. Recently, our lab successfully isolated a monomer telocinobufagin (TCB) from the chloroform extract of Chan Su ( Venenum Bufonis ). In present paper, we evaluated immunomodulatory effects this compound in vitro. We found TCB significantly stimulates splenocyte proliferation when administered alone combination with polyclonal T‐cell mitogens concanavalin A...
Ecosystem processes are tightly linked to the structure and functioning of plant communities. Large‐scale invasion Spartina alterniflora on unvegetated intertidal mudflats is expected reduce atmospheric CO 2 through an increase in carbon storage coastal ecosystem. In China&apos;s Yancheng Natural Reserve, (PCS), soil total organic (SCS), as well CH 4 fluxes, were compared between invaded marsh adjacent native marshes. PCS was 16.9 1.4 times higher those Suaeda Phragmites marshes, whereas...
Abstract Brasenia schreberi J. F. Gmel. (Cabombaceae), a perennial freshwater macrophyte characterized by thick mucilage on all underwater organs and especially young buds, has been widely cultivated as an aquatic vegetable in China for many years but is now listed endangered species due to anthropogenic impacts habitat loss. Recent studies have demonstrated that different B . populations low levels of genetic diversity significantly contents (MucC). Considering the importance both economic...
