Factors driving changes in water conservation function from a geospatial perspective: case study of Jilin Province

Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2023
Jilin Province in China borders other countries in Northeast Asia and is a complex ecosystem of transboundary rivers, varying terrains, and climates, which provides vital freshwater resources to the neighboring countries. Water conservation is one of the

Tandem Duplication‐Driven Neofunctionalization of UDP‐Glycosyltransferases Shapes the Diversification of Triterpenoid Saponins in the Cucurbitaceae

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
We present a chromosome‐level genome assembly of Siraitia grosvenorii and, through comparative genomics, uncover a conserved UGT73 tandem array driving triterpenoid saponin diversification in Cucurbitaceae. Crystalized SgUGT73AM30 further reveals the regioselectivity mechanism underlying its catalytic activity.

Natural Variation of COLD and CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 Coordinately Fine‐Tunes Cold Tolerance and Tea Quality in Tea Plants

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Multi‐trait genome‐wide association mapping identifies a central hub regulator, COLD AND CATECHINS REGULATOR 1 (CCR1), and its excellent natural allele variation, coordinately enhancing cold tolerance and promoting catechins biosyntheis. CsCCR1 interacts with CsCBF1/3 and is transcriptionally activated by CsLUX and CsKUA1 to promote catechins ...

High Tree Species Diversity Promotes Thermal Enhancement Response of Microbial Carbon Use Efficiency

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Predicting soil carbon dynamics under warming is constrained by limited understanding of microbial thermal adaptation, particularly whether microbial carbon use efficiency (CUE) can adapt to warming and how plant diversity modulates this response. Using soils from a natural tree species diversity gradient in a subtropical forest, we combined a

RHINO: An Integrative Multi‐Omics Framework Linking Circadian Physiology to Precision Medicine

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
RHINO (RHythmic Interacting Network for multi‐Omics) is an integrative framework that maps circadian regulation across diverse genetic and disease contexts and prioritizes druggable circadian targets. Released as an AI‐powered interactive web portal, RHINO unifies genetic, regulatory, disease, and drug–target information, enabling context‐specific ...

Lateral curtain interception technology and water conservation effect in groundwater abundant mines of China

Meitan kexue jishu, 2023
There are many types and numbers of mines in China, covering coal, metallurgy, non-ferrous metals, chemical industry and so on. Most of the mines use dewatering and drainage to control groundwater, and some of the water abundant mines have tens of thousands of m3 to hundreds of thousands of m3 of mine drainage per day, which causes the problems of ...

Metagenomic Association Uncovers Host Genotype‐Structured Rhizobacterial Networks and Novel Taxa That Enhance Soybean Salt Tolerance

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
An STI‐guided metagenomic association framework links soybean salt‐tolerance phenotypes with rhizosphere microbiome composition and network organization in natural saline soils. The approach identifies candidate beneficial taxa, including Thalassospira xiamenensis, and provides an efficient strategy for mining stress‐protective microbes from native ...

Conversion relationships and three-dimensional storage and utilization modes of four water resources in an open-pit mining area

Meitian dizhi yu kantan
BackgroundOpen-pit coal mines in China are primarily distributed in arid and semi-arid regions such as Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia. However, the contradiction between coal mining and groundwater resource conservation is increasingly prominent in these ...
