摘要Exciton-polaritons,formed through strong coupling between photons and excitons,exhibit unique characteristics such as an extremely small effective mass and a propensity to form Bose-Einstein condensates.The dynamics of these condensates are governed by a coupled system of equations that describe the condensate wavefunction and the excitonic reservoir density.Using imaginary-time evolution,the ground state of the condensate in a quasi-periodic potential is determined,revealing a transition from localized to delocalized states as the nonlinearity increases.After quenching the interaction strength,localized condensates with weak nonlinearity propagate without significant distortion,whereas those with strong nonlinearity exhibit breathing-like oscillations.Higher reservoir decay rates promote localization and suppress chaotic behavior,highlighting the interplay between nonlinearity and dissipation in determining the system's dynamical behavior.
摘要This study aimed to explore the green biocontrol methods for root rot of Polygonatum cyrtonema Hua and alleviate the continuous cropping obstacles of P.cyrtonema in Xinhua County,Hunan Province.Four pathogenic fungal species isolated from diseased plants were taken as the target pathogens,and Bacillus subtilis A3-1 screened and identified in our laboratory was used as the biocontrol agent.The biocontrol potential of A3-1 against root rot of P.cyrtonema was systematically evaluated through plate confrontation experiments,evaluation of plant growthpromoting and fungal pathogen-inhibiting functions,antifungal activity evaluation of metabolites,and hyphal morphology observation.The results showed that A3-1 had multiple plant growth-promoting functions such as producing ammonia,fixing nitrogen,secreting siderophores,and solubilzing organic and inorganic phosphorus.Its ACC deaminase activity reached 65.04 U/mL,and it could secrete cellulase,protease,and amylase.The plate confrontation experiments showed that the strain exhibited the best inhibitory effect on Colletotrichum spaethianum,while its volatile metabolites had a high inhibition rate of 91.39%on Fusarium solani,while causing morphological distortion of hyphae.However,the sterile filtrate of this strain did not show significant antifungal activity.In summary,strain A3-1 showed dual functions of promoting plant growth and inhibiting fungal pathogens,with its volatile gas as the key antifungal component,demonstrating promising application prospects in biocontrol.

摘要[Objectives]This study was conducted to comprehensively elucidate the antioxidant response mechanisms of rice to cadmium(Cd)and manganese(Mn)stress and the interactive effects of their combined stress.[Methods]This study systematically investigated the effects of individual and combined Cd and Mn stress on oxidative damage indicators,activities of major antioxidant enzymes(SOD,POD,CAT,APX),expression of key antioxidant and detoxification genes(e.g.,SOD,POD,CAT,GSH1,GST),and contents of osmoregulatory substances(soluble sugars,soluble proteins,proline)in rice leaves.[Results](1)Under single or combined stress of Cd and Mn,the accumulation of reactive oxygen species(ROS)in rice leaves exhibited significant dose-dependence and synergistic effects.(2)Under the Mn500 treatment,the activities of SOD and CAT increased by 7.0%and 19.8%,respectively.Under the Cd5 stress treatment,the activities of POD and APX increased by 22.1%and 55.0%,respectively.The combined stress with low-concentration Mn and Cd significantly increased the activities of SOD and CAT in rice leaves,rising by 18.9%and 45.1%,respectively,compared with single Cd stress.The expression levels of genes encoding CAT and SOD were also significantly upregulated.The combined stress with low-concentration Mn and Cd(Mn500+Cd)significantly upregulated the expression level of glutathione S-transferase(GST).Conversely,under high-concentration Mn and Cd combined stress(Mn3000+Cd20),the expression of glutathione synthesis-related genes was significantly inhibited.(3)Under Cd5 stress,the contents of soluble sugars,soluble proteins,and proline in rice leaves increased by 14.2%,11.5%,and 90.0%,respectively.However,when stress intensity increased(e.g.,under Cd20),leaf soluble protein content decreased significantly.Therefore,it was concluded that high-concentration single stress of either Cd or Mn induced massive accumulation of reactive oxygen species(H 2O 2)and membrane lipid peroxidation(elevated MDA),thereby damaging cell membrane integrity.Under combined stress,high-concentration Mn and Cd synergistically exacerbated oxidative damage,with H 2O 2 and MDA accumulation levels significantly higher than those under individual treatments.The response of the antioxidant system exhibited concentration-dependent characteristics.Specifically,low-concentration Mn alleviated Cd-induced oxidative stress by enhancing the activities of SOD and CAT.In contrast,the combined stress with high-concentration Mn and Cd inhibited the activities of antioxidant enzymes and the expression of their encoding genes(such as SOD,CAT,and the glutathione synthase GSH1),significantly compromising cellular defense capacity.[Conclusions]This study provides a reference for understanding the physiological responses and coping mechanisms of rice to combined stress from other heavy metals.

摘要Antimony(Sb)contamination in paddy fields can lead to its accumulation in rice grains,posing a threat to food safety.To address this issue,the combined use of zero-valent iron(ZVI)and biochar(BC)were applied to decrease the uptake of Sb in Sb-polluted soils,and their effects on Sb uptake from soil to rice grains were investigated.Our results showed that the combination treatment of 0.05%ZVI and 0.095%BC resulted in a significant decrease(42.8%)in Sb accumulation in rice grains that was comparably more efficient than that by 0.05%ZVI(decrease of 15.8%Sb accumulation)or 0.095%BC(decrease of 12.7%Sb accumulation)alone,demonstrating the synergistic effect of ZVI and BC on mitigating Sb uptake by rice plants.ZVI presence resulted in the formation of iron oxides in the soil and on root surfaces,and the S2-/S22-ascent also increased by 58.7%on day 75 compared with that of the control,facilitating the reduction of Sb(Ⅴ)to less mobile Sb(Ⅲ),thereby decreasing Sb accumulation in rice plants.BC initially increased themobility of Sb owing to its alkaline nature,whereas the electron shuttle properties of BC contributed to a decrease in Sbmobility.The abundance of the arsenite-reducing gene arrA ultimately increased by 203.2% on day 120 compared with the initial phase on day 5,and BC caused a remarkable increase in arrA gene abundance.This study revealed the synergistic mechanisms by combining ZVI and BC to mitigate Sb uptake by rice,which may be useful for the sustainable remediation of contaminated rice paddies.

摘要Objective IgA nephropathy(IgAN)is the most prevalent form of primary glomerular disease.However,its diagnosis is contingent on kidney biopsy.Therefore,noninvasive biomarkers are urgently needed for diagnosis.This study aims to identify novel urinary biomarkers that differentiate IgAN from other common primary glomerular diseases,specifically membranous nephropathy(MN)and minimal change disease(MCD).Methods The peripheral blood mononuclear cell(PBMC)transcriptome dataset GSE73953 was obtained from the GEO database.Differential gene expression,Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes(KEGG)pathway enrichment,Gene Ontology(GO)enrichment,and immune infiltration analyses were performed.Protein–protein interaction(PPI)analysis and lysosome-related genes were used to identify hub genes.The expression of the hub gene ATP6V1D in urine and kidney tissues from individuals with IgAN,healthy controls,MCD and MN patients was assessed using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA),Western blotting,and immunostaining techniques.Spearman’s correlation analysis was employed to investigate the relationships between the concentration of ATP6V1D in urine,the concentration of galactose-deficient IgA1(GD-IgA1),and the clinical data of patients.The receiver operating characteristic(ROC)curve was used to assess the role of urine ATP6V1D levels in distinguishing IgAN from MN and MCD.Results ATPase was identified as the principal intracellular structure associated with differentially expressed genes(DEGs)between IgAN patients and healthy controls in PBMCs.ATP6V1D was identified as a hub gene at the intersection of lysosome-related and differential genes.ATP6V1D levels were lower in PBMCs,urine,and kidney samples from IgAN patients than in those from healthy individuals,MCD and MN patients.The decreased urinary ATP6V1D levels and increased GD-IgA1 levels in IgAN patients were further validated.These changes were positively correlated with 24-h urine protein levels.Notably,a negative correlation was observed between ATP6V1D and GD-IgA1 levels.ROC curve analysis demonstrated that urinary ATP6V1D(AUC=0.972)and GD-IgA1(AUC=0.952)had significant discriminative power in distinguishing IgAN patients from MCD and MN patients,with no significant difference in predictive performance between the two biomarkers(P>0.05).Conclusions The findings underscore the potential utility of the urine ATP6V1D concentration as a biomarker to distinguish IgAN from MN and MCD.
摘要[Objectives]This study was conducted to investigate the mechanism of continuous cropping obstacles in Polygonatum odoratum.[Methods]Three treatments were established:continuous cropping(two consecutive crops),first-crop control(with Phaseolus vulgaris as the preceding crop),and blank control.The effects of continuous cropping on the functional diversity of soil microorganisms,soil enzyme activities,and soil nutrient coordination in the rhizosphere soil of P.odoratum during different growth stages were investigated.[Results](1)Continuous cropping increased the carbon source metabolic capacity,Shannon diversity index,and richness of rhizosphere soil microorganisms by 3.2%-14.7%,0.9%-3.5%,and 1.3%-12.5%,respectively,but the differences were not significant.(2)Principal component analysis indicated that during the middle stage of rhizome expansion,continuous cropping significantly altered the characteristics of microbial carbon metabolism,and the microbial communities utilizing carbohydrates,amino acids,polymers,carboxylic acids and amines as carbon sources exhibited vigorous metabolism.(3)Continuous cropping significantly reduced the activities of urease,polyphenol oxidase,and acid phosphatase in rhizosphere soil,with decreases of 24.4%-39.5%,3.2%-14.8%,and 7.9%-18.2%,respectively.The activities of catalase and invertase sometimes exceeded and sometimes fell below those of the first crop,showing no consistent pattern.(4)Under continuous cropping conditions,nutrient imbalance occurred in the rhizosphere soil,characterized by nitrogen deficiency and phosphorus surplus.(5)Grey correlation analysis indicated that available phosphorus content,alkali-hydrolyzable nitrogen content and polyphenol oxidase activity in rhizosphere soil were the main factors influencing microbial functional diversity.[Conclusions]This study provides a theoretical basis for understanding the formation mechanism of continuous cropping obstacles in P.odoratum.

摘要[Objectives]This study was conducted to investigate the joint toxicity of fungicides on aquatic ecosystems.[Methods]Using zebrafish as a model organism,an LC-MS/MS simultaneous detection method was established for fluxapyroxad and pyraclostrobin(with detection limits at ng/L level),and their acute toxicity,joint toxicity and toxic mechanisms were systematically evaluated.[Results]The toxicity of pyraclostrobin(96 h-LC 50=0.052 mg/L)to zebrafish was approximately 25.8 times higher than that of fluxapyroxad(96 h-LC 50=1.34 mg/L).Joint toxicity evaluation using the fixed-ratio ray design revealed that six of the seven mixture ratios exhibited additive effects(AI=0.62-1.47),while the 8:1 ratio showed antagonism(AI=2.14).The analysis of toxicity mechanisms indicated that both fungicides induced oxidative stress,lipid peroxidation,and cellular damage through inhibition of mitochondrial complex III and II,respectively,with pyraclostrobin inducing more pronounced hepatic MDA elevation(2.56-fold)and antioxidant enzyme inhibition.Ecological risk assessment demonstrated that fluxapyroxad posed moderate risk(RQ=0.16-0.90),while pyraclostrobin posed moderate to high risk(RQ=0.56-3.56),and crustaceans faced the highest risk.[Conclusions]This study elucidated the mechanism underlying toxicity differences due to distinct mitochondrial targets,providing a scientific basis for fungicide management.
摘要In this study,we successfully constructed the promoter expression vector ProBjB01.MTP5-GUS for BjB01.MTP5 in Brassica juncea.Phylogenetic and cis-acting element analyses were performed based on the promoter sequences of the MTP5 gene from ten Brassicaceae species.The results revealed that the MTP5 promoters of the B subgenome in Brassica formed distinct evolutionary branches compared with those of the A/C subgenomes.Analysis of cis-acting elements indicated that elements responsive to phytohormones(e.g.,abscisic acid,methyl jasmonate,and auxin)and abiotic stresses including anaerobic induction,salicylic acid,drought,and low temperatures were highly conserved in the MTP5 promoters across different species.Tissue-specific expression profiling demonstrated that BjB01.MTP5 was predominantly expressed in roots,flower buds,siliques,and pericarps.Furthermore,qRT-PCR analysis under heavy metal stress showed that the expression of BjB01.MTP5 was significantly induced by various heavy metals,such as Mn2+,Fe2+,Zn2+,and Sb3+.Its expression pattern correlated strongly with the distribution of heavy metal-responsive elements in the promoter region.These findings provided important theoretical insights into the biological functions of MTP genes in response to heavy metal stress.

摘要Kinesins are a superfamily of proteins widely present in eukaryotes,playing crucial roles in plant cell wall assembly,cell elongation regulation,gravity sensing,and fertility control.In this study,bioinformatics analysis of the OsKMP2 gene(LOC_Os02g28850)was performed using online tools such as ExPASy-ProtParam,ProtScale,CD-search,and DNAMAN software.Additionally,qRT-PCR was employed to analyze the tissue expression pattern of OsKMP2.The results showed that the molecular weight of the OsKMP2 is 118.39728 kDa,and it is a hydrophilic and unstable acidic protein.Secondary structure prediction revealed that it primarily consists ofα-helices(69.45%),random coils(25.19%),and extended strands(5.36%).The gene was expressed in various rice tissues,with the highest expression level observed in leaves.These results indicate that the OsKMP2 gene exhibits high evolutionary conservation and functional diversity in rice.
摘要To determine the addition amount of Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex residue for composting,this study designed four Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex residue treatments of 100(A1),150(A2),200(A3),and 250(A4).Then,mushroom substrate residue,rice husks,and pig manure were added,and the cellulose-degrading strain ZG2-3 was inoculated at 5%for composting.The inoculation of a commercially available microbial agent was taken as the positive control(PC),and no inoculation of microbial agent as the blank control(CK).The effect of different treatments on the heavy metal content,nutrients,physicochemical properties,and microbial counts of compost and the seed germination index(GI)were studied and compared.The results showed that except that in CK,the content of heavy metals in other treatments did not exceed the standard limits.With the increase in the addition amount of Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex residue,the content of available nitrogen,available phosphorus,available potassium,and total nutrients in the compost also increased.Adding microbial agent significantly increased the content of total nutrients,available nitrogen,available phosphorus,available potassium,total nitrogen,total phosphorus,and total potassium in the compost,while reducing the content of organic matter.The GI was the highest in A4 treatment,reaching 85.33%,and it followed a trend of A3>PC>CK.This indicated that the inoculation of microbial agent accelerated the maturation of compost,and ZG2-3 outperformed the commercially available Bacillus subtilis.Overall,the A4 treatment(250 g Phellodendri Chinensis Cortex residue+125 g mushroom substrate residue+125 g rice husks+1000 g pig manure+inoculation of 5%ZG2-3)performed well in terms of nutrients content,physicochemical properties,and GI and had good safety,being the optimal formula for composting.
摘要The 12-oxophytodienoate reductase(OPR),a flavin mononucleotide-dependent oxidoreductase,regulates plant responses to stress conditions such as heavy metals,drought,saline-alkali,pests,and diseases by participating in the synthesis of plant hormones such as jasmonic acid(JA).In this study,homologous cloning was employed to obtain the Brassica napus‘Zhongshuang 11’OPR1 gene(BnOPR1).Bioinformatics analysis was conducted for the deduced protein BnOPR1,and a plant expression vector for BnOPR1 was constructed.The bioinformatics analysis revealed that BnOPR1 was 1125 bp in length,encoding 375 amino acid residues.The deduced protein had a molecular weight of 41.604 kDa,an isoelectric point of 6.05,a molecular formula of C1853H2855N511O550S16,an aliphatic index of 35.47,a lipophilicity index of 74.87,and an instability index of 39.49.It had 49 phosphorylation sites and lacked transmembrane domains and signal peptides.The phylogenetic analysis indicated that BnOPR1 had a close relationship with the OPR1 protein from Brassica rapa since they shared the same clade,while it had a distant relationship with the OPR1 protein from Raphanus sativus.In this paper,the expression vector for BnOPR1 was successfully constructed by seamless cloning and named pBnOPR1.The findings laid a foundation for further studying the roles of BnOPR1 in the response to antimony stress.
摘要To investigate the function of the zinc finger protein BnZAT12 in Brassica napus,bioinformatics analysis was conducted on BnZAT12.The results showed that the open reading frame of BnZAT12 was 477 bp in length,encoding 158 amino acid residues.The deduced protein had a molecular weight of 16864.72 Da and a theoretical isoelectric point of 9.68.The phylogenetic tree showed that Brassica napus had the closest relationship with Brassica oleracea belonging to Brassicaceae and the farthest relationship with Oryza sativa.The analysis of the promoter region suggested that BnZAT12 may be regulated by factors such as light,abscisic acid,and methyl jasmonate.Furthermore,the BnZAT12 overexpression vector was constructed by seamless cloning.This study laid a foundation of molecular biology for further elucidating the role of BnZAT12.

摘要Grain yield is a polygenic trait that can be influenced by environmental factors and genetic compositions at all plant growth stages.Currently,the molecular mechanisms behind the coordination of the interaction between grain yield-related traits remain unknown.In this study,we characterized the function of four STRESS_tolerance and GRAIN_LENGTH(Os SGL)Poaceae ortholog genes that are transcribed into DUF1645 domain-containing proteins in relation to the grain length,grain weight,and drought stress-tolerance of rice.The transgenic plants with overexpressing or heterologous high levels of Poaceae OsSGL ortholog genes exhibited longer grain size than the wild type plants.Larger cells were seen in panicles of the four transgenic lines with paraffin sectioning and scanning electron microscopy analyses.In addition,four Poaceae OsSGL ortholog genes positively affected the drought tolerance of rice.Four transgenic plants displayed higher resistance to drought stress at the seedling and vegetative stages.RNA-sequencing and qRT-PCR results indicated that over-or heterologous-expression of four Poaceae OsSGL ortholog genes also affected the transcriptome of rice plants.These genes may play a role in auxin and cytokinin biosynthesis and their transduction pathways.Taken together,these results suggested that the four OsSGL orthologs have a conserved function in the regulation of stress-tolerance and cell growth by modulating hormonal biosynthesis and signaling.

摘要In order to explore the control effects of 10% metamifop EC and 20%cyhalofop-butyl OD on barnyard grass(Echinochloa crusgalli(L.) Beauv.) as well as their safety to rice in rice direct-seeding paddy field, field efficacy experiments were carried out in Taoyuan County and Hanshou County of Hunan Province. The results showed that the control effect of different pesticide treatments on barnyard grass was good, and the control effect reached more than 93%. Of which, 10% metamifop EC 2 250 mL/hm2+20% cyhalofop-butyl OD 1 500 mL/hm2had the best control effect,exceeding 99% and each treatment had no significantly ponisonous to rice. However,considering cost-saving and effect-increasing, it was recommended to use 10%metamifop EC 1 050 mL/hm2mixed with 20% cyhalofop-butyl OD 1 050 mL/hm2for the control of barnyard grass, which not only had the effect of controlling barnyard grass, but also was safety to rice.
