摘要:
Soil bacteria, as integral components of the soil microbial community, play pivotal roles in biogeochemical cycles and ecosystem functions in boreal forests. The altitudinal patterns of soil bacteria have been widely reported, but their community assembly is uncertain. Here, we investigated the soil bacterial community attributes (diversity, taxonomic and functional composition, and bacterial interactions) and ecological processes associated with community assembly on Mt. Oakley in the northern Greater Khingan Mountains via Illumina MiSeq sequencing and functional annotation tools. The alpha diversity indices of the soil bacteria exhibited a progressively decreasing trend with increasing altitude across seasons. The relative abundance of the dominant bacterial taxa was more sensitive to altitude than to season. More complex (more nodes and links) bacterial interactions were detected at the lowest and highest altitudinal sites, as well as in September. The variations in the taxonomic and functional compositions of the soil bacteria induced by altitude were mainly driven by the variations in soil pH and extracellular enzyme activities. Stochastic (dispersal limitation and drift) processes largely controlled the soil bacterial community assemblages across spatiotemporal scales. The community assemblages of soil bacteria were affected by altitude-induced changes in the taxonomic composition and functional groups. Collectively, our results have significant implications for understanding bacterial biogeography and community assembly mechanisms along altitudinal gradients in boreal forest ecosystems.
摘要:
Synthetic lethality is a phenomenon wherein the simultaneous deficiency of two or more genes results in cell death, while the deficiency of any individual gene does not lead to cell death. In recent years, synthetic lethality has emerged as a significant topic in the field of targeted cancer therapy, with certain drugs based on this concept exhibiting promising outcomes in clinical trials. Nevertheless, the presence of tumor heterogeneity and the intricate DNA repair mechanisms pose challenges to the effective implementation of synthetic lethality. This review aims to explore the concepts, development, and ethical quandaries surrounding synthetic lethality. Additionally, it will provide an in-depth analysis of the clinical application and underlying mechanism of synthetic lethality.

摘要:
<jats:title>Abstract</jats:title><jats:p>Ginger (<jats:italic>Zingiber officinale</jats:italic> Roscoe) is an important plant used worldwide for medicine and food. The R2R3‐MYB transcription factor (TF) family has essential roles in plant growth, development, and stresses resistance, and the number of genes in the family varies greatly among different types of plants. However, genome‐wide discovery of <jats:italic>ZoMYBs</jats:italic> and gene responses to stresses have not been reported in ginger. Therefore, genome‐wide analysis of R2R3‐MYB genes in ginger was conducted in this study. Protein phylogenetic relations and conserved motifs and chromosome localization and duplication, structure, and <jats:italic>cis</jats:italic>‐regulatory elements were analyzed. In addition, the expression patterns of selected genes were analyzed under two different stresses. A total of 299 candidate <jats:italic>ZoMYB</jats:italic> genes were discovered in ginger. Based on groupings of R2R3‐MYB genes in the model plant <jats:italic>Arabidopsis thaliana</jats:italic> (L.) Heynh., <jats:italic>ZoMYB</jats:italic>s were divided into eight groups. Genes were distributed across 22 chromosomes at uneven densities. In gene duplication analysis, 120 segmental duplications were identified in the ginger genome. Gene expression patterns of 10 <jats:italic>ZoMYB</jats:italic>s in leaves of ginger under abscisic acid (ABA) and low‐temperature stress treatments were different. The results will help to determine the exact roles of <jats:italic>ZoMYB</jats:italic>s in anti‐stress responses in ginger.</jats:p>

摘要:
Pimpinella L. is one of the large genera in the Apiaceae family. In a previous study, the molecular phylogenies of Pimpinella were explored using nuclear ribosomal DNA internal transcribed spacers (ITS) and several chloroplast DNA segments. There have been few studies conducted on chloroplast genomes in Pimpinella, which has limited systematic understanding of this genus. We assembled the complete chloroplast genomes of nine Pimpinella species from China using data generated from next generation sequencing (NGS). The chloroplast (cp) DNA used were standard double-stranded molecules, ranging from 146,432 base pairs (bp) (P. valleculosa) to 165,666 bp (P. purpurea) in length. The circular DNA contained a large single-copy (LSC) region, small single-copy (SSC) region, and pair of inverted repeats (IRs). The cp DNA of the nine species contained 82–93 protein-coding genes, 36–37 transfer RNA (tRNA) genes, and eight ribosomal RNA (rRNA) genes, respectively. Four species (P. smithii, P. valleculosa, P. rhomboidea, and P. purpurea) exhibited striking distinctions in genome size, gene number, IR boundary, and sequence identity. We confirmed the nonmonophyly of the Pimpinella species on the basis of the nine newly identified plastomes. The distant relationship between the above-mentioned four Pimpinella species and Pimpinelleae was indicated with high support values. Our study provides a foundation for future in-depth phylogenetic and taxonomic studies of genus Pimpinella. Copyright 2023 Wang et al.

摘要:
Pseudomonas aeruginosa is a conditional Gram-negative pathogen that produces extracellular virulence factors that can lead to bloodstream invasion, severely harm tissues, and disseminate bacteria, ultimately leading to various diseases. In this study, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) with strong antagonistic ability against P. aeruginosa were screened, and the regulatory mechanism of LAB against P. aeruginosa was evaluated. The results showed that the three selected LAB strains had strong inhibition ability on the growth, biofilm formation, and pyocyanin expression of P. aeruginosa and a promoting effect on the expression of autoinducer-2. Among them, Lactipantibacillus plantarum (Lp. plantarum) LPyang is capable of affecting the metabolic processes of P. aeruginosa by influencing metabolic substances, such as LysoPC, oxidized glutathione, betaine, etc. These results indicate that LPyang reduces the infectivity of P. aeruginosa through inhibition of its growth, biofilm formation, pyocyanin expression, and regulation of its metabolome. This study provides new insights into the antagonistic activity of Lp. plantarum LPyang against P. aeruginosa.
摘要:
Simple Summary Habituation to deterrent plant compounds has been found in generalist and specialist insect herbivores. The rate at which plant-feeding insects habituate and at which sensitivity of taste neurons detecting deterrents changes has not been compared among closely related species. The generalist Helicoverpa armigera (Hubner) and the specialist Helicoverpa assulta (Guenee) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) differ strongly in degree of host-plant specialism. Both species habituated to the alkaloid strychnine after dietary exposure; however, the specialist H. assulta displayed habituation to strychnine faster (at 48 h) than the generalist H. armigera (at 72 h). Electrophysiological recordings from taste sensilla on mouthparts revealed that a deterrent-sensitive neuron in the medial sensillum styloconicum of both species displayed significantly reduced sensitivity to the deterrent that coincided in time with the onset of habituation. Our findings show that physiological changes in taste neuron sensitivity coincide with habituation to plant compounds that are initially avoided. The two closely related moth species, Helicoverpa armigera and H. assulta differ strongly in their degree of host-plant specialism. In dual-choice leaf disk assays, caterpillars of the two species that had been reared on standard artificial diet were strongly deterred by the plant-derived alkaloid strychnine. However, caterpillars of both species reared on artificial diet containing strychnine from neonate to the 5th instar were insensitive to this compound. Fifth instar caterpillars of H. assulta and 4th or 5th instars of H. armigera not exposed to strychnine before were subjected to strychnine-containing diet for 24 h, 36 h, 48 h, or 72 h. Whereas H. assulta displayed habituation to strychnine after 48 h, it took until 72 h for H. armigera to become habituated. Electrophysiological tests revealed that a deterrent-sensitive neuron in the medial sensillum styloconicum of both species displayed significantly reduced sensitivity to strychnine that correlated with the onset of habituation. We conclude that the specialist H. assulta habituated faster to strychnine than the generalist H. armigera and hypothesis that desensitization of deterrent-sensitive neurons contributed to habituation.

摘要:
Detecting and imaging intracellular hypochlorous acid (HClO) is of great importance owning to its prominent role in numerous pathological and physiological processes. In this contribution, a novel AIE-based fluorescent chemosensor has been developed by employing a benzothiazole derivative. The synthesized probe displayed remarkable ratiometric fluorescent response to HClO with a large emission shift (139 nm), resulting in naked-eye fluorescence changes from red to blue. Under the optimal conditions, this probe was capable of quantitatively detecting HClO within 10 s, and possessed good sensitivity and high selectivity toward HClO over other biologically relevant species. Moreover, it has been successfully utilized to image the exogenous and endogenous HClO in living cells through dual channels, and conveniently detect hypochlorous acid solution on test strips with better accuracy, demonstrating its potential for monitoring HClO in biological and environment fields.
