Summary Zoige wetland of Tibetan plateau is characterized by being located at a low latitude (33°56′N, 102°52′E) region and under the annual temperature around 1°C. Previous studies indicated that was one CH 4 emission centres in Qinghai‐Tibetan plateau; this study, methanogen community low‐latitude analysed based on homology 16S rRNA mcrA genes retrieved from soil. The results members Methanosarcinales Methanomicrobiales constituted majority methanogens, novel uncultured cluster, cluster I...
To understand the seasonality of methane flux from alpine wetlands in Zoige Plateau, 30 plots were set to measure emissions growing and nongrowing seasons three environmental types: dry hummock (DH), Carex muliensis (CM), Eleocharis valleculosa (EV) sites. There clearly seasonal patterns different types seasons. Mean emission rate was 14.45 mg CH 4 m −2 h −1 (0.17 86.78 ) season, 0.556 (0.002 6.722 season. In main maximum values found July August, except for a peak value September CM similar...
In disease-suppressive soil, plants rely upon mutualistic associations between roots and specific microbes for nutrient acquisition disease suppression. Notably, the transmission of suppressiveness by cysts sugar beet cyst nematode from suppressive to conducive soils has been previously observed in greenhouse trials. However, our current understanding bacterial assemblages cyst, root endosphere rhizosphere soil is still limited. To obtain insights into these microbiota assemblages,...
Abstract Peatlands have persisted as massive carbon sinks over millennia, even during past periods of climate change. The commonly accepted theory abiotic controls (mainly anoxia and low temperature) decomposition cannot fully explain how vast low-latitude shrub/tree dominated (wooded) peatlands consistently accrete peat under warm seasonally unsaturated conditions. Here we show, by comparing the composition ecological traits microbes between Sphagnum - shrub-dominated peatlands, that...
Continuous cropping often results in severe "replant problem," across various crops due to the autotoxins accumulation, soil acidification, pathogens proliferation, and microbial dysfunction. We unveiled a groundbreaking phenomenon that long-term continuous (LTCC) can alleviate tobacco replant problem. This mitigation occurs through enrichment of autotoxin-degrading microbes, transformative impact is evident with even modest application (10%) LTCC short-term (STCC) soil. Our investigation...
Background Nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is strongly associated with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Lifestyle intervention remains a preferred treatment modality for NAFLD. The glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1) receptor agonists and sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors have been developed as new glucose-lowering drugs, which can improve via an insulin-independent effect. However, studies exploring the efficacy of GLP-1 combined SGLT-2 in patients NAFLD T2DM are scanty....
The study focuses on comparing the efficacy of a low-dose combination febuxostat and benzbromarone versus each drug used alone for treatment gout. A prospective, randomized, open-labeled trial men with gout renal uric acid underexcretion was conducted. We randomly assigned 100 patients to either or initial treatment. 43 complete data were analyzed in this study. analysis medication Treatment effects, Period effects Patient-Within-Sequence different options performed by cross-test ANOVA....
Aims To examine trends of glucose-, blood pressure-, and lipid-lowering drugs antiplatelet medications with cardiovascular benefit in type 2 diabetes (T2DM) patients established or high risk atherosclerotic disease (ASCVD). Materials methods In this retrospective cohort study, we identified T2DM ASCVD using diagnostic codes from the institutional data Xiamen Humanity Hospital between 2018 2023. The prescription any glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor agonist (GLP-1 RA) sodium glucose...
An obligately anaerobic, methanogenic archaeon, strain HC(T), was isolated from soil of the Zoige wetland on Tibetan plateau, China. The through construction an artificial butyrate-degrading consortium in co-culture with a syntrophic bacterium, 'Syntrophomonas erecta subsp. sporosyntropha' JCM 13344. Cells HC(T) were irregular coccoids, 0.8-2 mum diameter, that occurred singly and utilized only H(2)/CO(2) for growth methane production. Growth at 18-45 degrees C (optimum around 37 C). pH...
Accelerated by global climate changing, retreating glaciers leave behind soil chronosequences of primary succession. Current knowledge succession is mainly from studies vegetation dynamics, whereas information about belowground microbes remains unclear. Here we combined shifts in community assembly processes with microbial to better understand mechanisms governing the stochastic/deterministic balance. We investigated fungal and via high-throughput sequencing along a well-established glacier...
