In the context of an increasing atmospheric carbon dioxide (CO2) level, acidification estuarine and coastal waters is greatly exacerbated by land-derived nutrient inputs, upwelling, complex biogeochemical processes. A deeper understanding how nitrifiers respond to intensifying thus crucial predict response ecosystems their contribution global climate change. Here, we show that can significantly decrease nitrification rate but stimulate generation byproduct nitrous oxide (N2O) in waters. By...
Coastal wetlands are hotspots for methane (CH4) production, reducing their potential global warming mitigation. Nitrite/nitrate-dependent anaerobic oxidation (n-DAMO) plays a crucial role in bridging carbon and nitrogen cycles, contributing significantly to CH4 consumption. However, the of n-DAMO emissions coastal is poorly understood. Here, ecological functions process different saltmarsh vegetation habitats as well bare mudflats were quantified, underlying microbial mechanisms explored....
Introduction: Flue-cured tobacco is an important economic crop that not tolerant of continuous cropping and can be influenced by planting soil conditions including rhizosphere microbial communities physicochemical properties. The relationship between properties under unclear. Methods: This study investigated the succession community in for 1, 3, 5, 8, 10, 15, 30 years. were measured, high-throughput sequencing was performed on community, correlation analysis conducted. Results: results...
Duckweed plants play important roles in aquatic ecosystems worldwide. They rapidly accumulate biomass and have potential uses bioremediation of water polluted by fertilizer runoff or other chemicals. Here we studied the assimilation two major sources inorganic nitrogen, nitrate (NO3− ) ammonium (NH4+), six duckweed species: Spirodela polyrhiza, Landoltia punctata, Lemna aequinoctialis, turionifera, minor, Wolffia globosa. All species preferred NH4+ over NO3− started using only when was...
Infections of Ralstonia solanacearum result in huge agricultural and economic losses. As known, the proposal effective biological measures for control soil disease depends on complex interactions between pathogens, microbiota properties, which remains to be studied. Previous studies have shown that phosphorus availability increased pathobiome abundance infection rhizosphere microbial networks by Ralstonia. Similarly, as a nutrient necessary plant growth, nitrogen has also been suggested...
Acidification of estuarine and coastal waters is anticipated to influence nitrogen (N) removal processes, which are critical pathways for eliminating excess N from these ecosystems. We found that denitrification rates decreased significantly under acidified conditions (P < 0.05), reduced by 41–53% in sediments an approximately 0.3 pH reduction the overlying water. However, through anaerobic ammonium oxidation (anammox) process were concomitantly promoted same acidification (increased...
Abstract Background Schistosoma infection is a significant public health issue, affecting over 200 million individuals and threatening 700 people worldwide. The species prevalent in China japonicum . Recent studies showed that both gut microbiota metabolome are closely related to schistosomiasis caused by S. , but clinical study limited the underlying mechanism largely unclear. This aimed explore alterations as well function of metabolite profile patients with infection. Methods included 20...
Dark carbon fixation (DCF), through which chemoautotrophs convert inorganic to organic carbon, is recognized as a vital process of global biogeochemical cycle. However, little known about the response DCF processes in estuarine and coastal waters warming. Using radiocarbon labelling method, effects temperature on activity were investigated benthic water Yangtze areas. A dome-shaped thermal pattern was observed for rates (i.e., reduced at lower or higher temperatures), with optimum (Topt )...
Abstract Background Schistosoma japonicum infection is an important public health problem, imposing heavy social and economic burdens in 78 countries worldwide. However, the mechanism of transition from chronic to advanced S. remains largely unknown. Evidences suggested that gut microbiota plays a role pathogenesis infection. composition patients with not well defined. In this study, we compared intestinal flora Methods The feces 24 five same area were collected according standard...
The compromised abilities to understand speech and localize sounds are two hallmark deficits in aged individuals. Earlier studies have shown that age-related cortical neural timing, which is clearly associated with perception, can be partially reversed auditory training. However, whether training reverse aged-related changes the domain of spatial processing has never been studied. In this study, we examined ~21-month-old rats were trained on a sound-azimuth discrimination task. We found...
Dark carbon fixation (DCF), conducted mainly by chemoautotrophs, contributes greatly to primary production and the global budget. Understanding response of DCF process climate warming in coastal wetlands is great significance for model optimization change prediction. Here, based on a 4-yr field experiment (average annual temperature increase 1.5°C), rates were observed be significantly inhibited decline 21.6%, estimated loss 0.08-1.5 Tg C yr-1 marshes), thus causing positive feedback. Under...
Lead (Pb) causes significant adverse effects on the developing brain, resulting in cognitive and learning disabilities children. The process by which lead produces these negative changes is largely unknown. fact that children with syndromes also show deficits central auditory processing, however, indicates a speculative but disturbing relationship between lead-exposure, impaired behavioral dysfunction. Here we studied rats cortical spatial tuning impacted early lead-exposure their potential...
In this work, Mo 2 C nanosheet-based photothermal therapy toward melanoma was investigated through integrated metabolomics in the mice model.
