Probiotics can effectively improve ulcerative colitis (UC), but the mechanism is still unclear. Here, shotgun metagenome and transcriptome analyses were performed to explore therapeutic effect of probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum HNU082 (Lp082) on UC. The results showed that Lp082 treatment significantly ameliorated dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced UC in mice, which was manifested as increases body weight, water intake, food colon length decreases disease activity index (DAI), immune...
More attention has been given to studies on the synchronous enhancement of light-to-thermal conversion capacity and thermal conductivity polymer phase-change material (PCM) conserve solar energy. Here, commonly used PEG PCM was encapsulated by graphene nanoplatelets (GNPs) single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNs), while composites were simultaneously obtained. The 3D interconnected SWCNs GNPs equipped with (1) shape stability durability, (2) negligible change in energy storage density, (3)...
Probiotics have shown good efficacy in the prevention of ulcerative colitis (UC), but specific mechanism remains unclear. Therefore, shotgun metagenomic and transcriptome analyses were performed to explore preventive effect a potential probiotic Lactobacillus plantarum HNU082 (Lp082) on UC its mechanism. The results showed that Lp082 intervention ameliorated dextran sulfate sodium (DSS)-induced mice, which was manifested increase body weight, water intake, food colon length decrease DAI...
Long-term intensive tillage has led to soil environment degradation, reduced fertility, difficulty in increasing maize yield, and low nitrogen (N) use efficiency the Mollisol region of northeast China. In order raise yield improve hydrothermal environment, we conducted field experiments investigate effects different practices straw returning on N fertilizer recovery loss, aiming increase both rate. Four treatments were established: flat no-tillage with full mulching (NM), ridge (RM), rotary...
Abstract Comparisons of related species that have diverse spatial distributions provide an efficient way to investigate adaptive evolution in face increasing global warming. The oyster subjected high environmental selections is a model as sessile marine invertebrate. This study aimed detect the divergence energy metabolism two subspecies from genus Crassostrea — C. gigas and angulata —which are broadly distributed along northern southern coasts China, respectively. We examined effects acute...
Investigating the physiological mechanisms of closely related species that exhibit distinct geographic distributions and thermal niches is essential for understanding their tolerance capacities local adaptations in view climate warming. The variations upper limits (LT50) under acute heat shock cardiac activity, standard metabolic rate (SMR), anaerobic metabolite production molecular responses (expression chaperones glycolysis metabolism genes) increasing temperatures two oyster subspecies...
Abstract Understanding the roles of genetic divergence and phenotypic plasticity in adaptation is central to evolutionary biology important for assessing adaptive potential species under climate change. Analysis a chromosome-level assembly resequencing individuals across wide latitude distribution estuarine oyster ( Crassostrea ariakensis ) revealed unexpectedly low genomic diversity population structures shaped by historical glaciation, geological events oceanographic forces. Strong...
Genetic variation and phenotypic plasticity are both important to adaptive evolution. However, how they act together on particular traits remains poorly understood. Here, we integrated phenotypic, genomic, transcriptomic data from two allopatric but closely related congeneric oyster species, Crassostrea angulata southern/warm environments gigas northern/cold environments, investigate the roles of genetic divergence in thermal adaptation. Reciprocal transplantation experiments showed that...
Abstract Background Although plastomes are highly conserved with respect to gene content and order in most photosynthetic angiosperms, extensive genomic rearrangements have been reported Fabaceae, particularly within the inverted repeat lacking clade (IRLC) of Papilionoideae. Two hypotheses, i.e. , absence IR increased content, proposed affect stability plastomes. However, this is still unclear for IRLC species. Here, we aimed investigate relationships between degree Medicago its relatives...
Abstract Deciphering the universal gene regulatory mechanisms in diverse organisms holds great potential to advance our knowledge of fundamental life process and facilitate research on clinical applications. However, traditional paradigm primarily focuses individual model organisms, resulting limited collection integration complex features various cell types across species. Recent breakthroughs single-cell sequencing advancements deep learning techniques present an unprecedented opportunity...
The evolution of phenotypic plasticity plays an essential role in adaptive responses to climate change; however, its regulatory mechanisms marine organisms which exhibit high still remain poorly understood. temperature-responsive trait oleic acid content and major gene stearoyl-CoA desaturase (Scd) expression have diverged two allopatric congeneric oyster species, cold-adapted Crassostrea gigas warm-adapted angulata. In this study, genetic molecular methods were used characterize fatty...
Abstract Alfalfa ( Medicago sativa L.) is one of the most important and widely cultivated forage crops. It commonly used as a vegetable medicinal herb because its excellent nutritional quality significant economic value. Based on Illumina, Nanopore Hi-C data, we assembled chromosome-scale assembly spp . caerulea (voucher PI464715), direct diploid progenitor autotetraploid alfalfa. The genome comprises 793.2 Mb genomic sequence 47,202 annotated protein-coding genes. contig N50 length 3.86 Mb....
Oyster is rich in glycogen and free amino acids called "the milk of sea". To understand the main genetic effects these traits networks underlying their correlation, we have conducted whole genome resequencing with 427 oysters collected from world-wide scale.After association analysis, 168 clustered significant single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) loci were identified for content 17 SNPs verified 288 oyster individuals another wide populations. These most important candidate breeding. Among...
Abstract Conventional tillage is still widely practiced in phaeozems sloping farmland, which leads to serious soil erosion . Adopting effective farming methods crucial for mitigating erosion. To prevent and control water loss field experiments were conducted 2022 using three their combination modes: subsoiling (SF), ridge pitting (RF), + (RF‐S), contour (TP), (TP‐R), (TP‐S). The study aimed assess the impact these different on conservation. results showed that treatment significantly reduced...
Abstract We performed a pilot study to establish the analytical and clinical validity of whole genome oligonucleotide array comparative genomic hybridization (oaCGH) using 44,000 from Agilent Technologies. DNA specimens 10 patients with different chromosomal abnormalities were used as test group sex mismatched normal male or female references. A series mixtures containing 50%, 33%, 25% known deletion was generated evaluate capacity oaCGH on detecting mosaic pattern. Receiver operating...
