Effects of Continuous Cropping on Soil Microbial Flora and Research Progress of Continuous Cropping Obstacle Reduction Techniques

Continuous cropping can bring economic benefits in a short time and meet the growing demand of agricultural products such as grain,but long-term continuous cropping will accelerate soil degradation,lead to the reduction of crop yield and the increase of disease rate,and destroy the balance of soil microbial structure.Therefore,it is not conducive to the sustainable development of soil ecosystem.In this paper,the problems caused by continuous cropping,such as imbalance of soil microbial flora,decrease of biodiversity,accumulation of root exudates and their effects on soil fertility and crop growth,were summarized,and some measures were suggested to alleviate the obstacles of continuous cropping,such as reasonable rotation,adjustment of intercropping planting mode and application of biological fertilizers.Moreover,the paper also looked forward to the development trend of continuous cropping obstacle reduction techniques,including the integration and application of biological techniques,the promotion of green ecological techniques and the application of intelligent management system.This study provides theoretical basis and technical support for the research of continuous cropping obstacle reduction techniques and promote the healthy and sustainable development of modern agriculture.

Research Progress on Effects of Continuous Cropping on Soil Microbial Florae and Its Restoration

Continuous cropping has become a common form of agricultural production at present, but with the increase of continuous cropping years, continuous cropping obstacles such as soil-borne diseases and plant growth potential decline are becoming more and more common. At present, the causes of continuous cropping obstacles and continuous cropping restoration have become a hot issue in agricultural research. This paper summarized the effects of continuous cropping obstacles on soil microbial community structure and main technical methods to repair continuous cropping obstacles, such as agricultural measure management, microbial balance adjustment and soil improvement, aiming to provide theoretical reference for protecting the sustainable utilization of soil ecosystem and ensuring the stability of crop production.

The effects of fall fertilization on the growth of Chinese pine and Prince Rupprecht’s larch seedlings

Nutrient loading in the fall is a practical way to improve seedling quality and has been proven to increase nutrient accumulation,translocation and utilization.Few studies have reported on the variation in free amino acids as a result of fall fertilization,especially for diff erent seasonal needle habits(evergreen,deciduous).Therefore,a balanced two-factor factorial design with one fall fertilization treatment(10 mg N/seedling)and Chinese pine(Pinus tabulaeformis Carr.)and Prince Rupprecht’s larch(Larix principis-rupprechtii Mayr.)seedlings was used to examine growth response over one nursery season.Associated changes between fall fertilization,N storage and free amino acids were analyzed.Results showed that:(1)stem height,diameter and biomass for both species were similar between controls and fall fertilization treatments;(2)compared to controls,fall fertilization increased Chinese pine needle and root N by 17.7%and 36.9%,respectively.For Prince Rupprecht’s larch,fall fertilization resulted in 26.3%and 34.54%more N in stem and roots,respectively,than controls;(3)the three main amino acids in control and fertilization treatments in Prince Rupprecht’s larch seedlings were glutamine,arginine and proline,and in Chinese pine seedlings were glutamine,arginine andγ-amino butyric acid;(4)total amino acid contents were not signifi cantly increased by fall fertilization,but glutamine in Chinese pine and Prince Rupprecht’s larch increased by 64.2%and 35.2%,respectively.Aboveground biomass of Prince Rupprecht’s larch had higher proline contents than Chinese pine,which suggests that the stress resistance of the aboveground tissue may be higher for Prince Rupprecht’s larch.The results indicate that diff erent plant organs with various response are well adapted to nitrogen loading for nutrient storage in evergreen and deciduous conifer seedlings.

In situ cultivation of deep-sea water with bicarbonate fueled a different microbial community

Some deep-sea microbes may incorporate inorganic carbon to reduce CO_(2) emission to upper layer and atmosphere.How the microbial inhabitants can be affected under addition of bicarbonate has not been studied using in situ fixed and lysed samples.In this study,we cultivated 40 L natural bottom water at~1000 m depth with a final concentration of 0.1 mmol/L bicarbonate for 40 min and applied multiple in situ nucleic acids collection(MISNAC)apparatus for nucleic acids extraction from the cultivation.Our classification result of the cultivation sample showed a distinct microbial community structure,compared with the samples obtained by Niskin bottle and six working units of MISNAC.Except for notable enrichment of Alteromonas,we detected prevalence of Asprobacter,Ilumatobacter and Saccharimonadales in the cultivation.Deep-sea lineages of Euryarchaeota,SAR406,SAR202 and SAR324 were almost completely absent from the cultivation and Niskin samples.This study revealed the dominant microbes affected by bicarbonate addition and Niskin sampling,which suggested rapid responses of deep-sea microbes to the environmental changes.

Non-proteolytic ubiquitination of OTULIN regulates NF-κB signaling pathway

NF-κB signaling regulates diverse processes such as cell death,inflammation,immunity,and cancer.The activity of NF-κB is controlled by methionine 1-linked linear polyubiquitin,which is assembled by the linear ubiquitin chain assembly complex(LUBAC)and the ubiquitin-conjugating enzyme UBE2L3.Recent studies found that the deubiquitinase OTULIN breaks the linear ubiquitin chain,thus inhibiting NF-κB signaling.Despite the essential role of OTULIN in NF-κB signaling has been established,the regulatory mechanism for OTULIN is not well elucidated.To discover the potential regulators of OTULIN,we analyzed the OTULIN protein complex by proteomics and revealed several OTULIN-binding proteins,including LUBAC and tripartite motif-containing protein 32(TRIM32).TRIM32 is known to activate NF-κB signaling,but the mechanism is not dear.Genetic complement experiments found that TRIM32 is upstream of OTULIN and TRIM32-mediated NF-κB activation is dependent on OTULIN.Mutagenesis of the E3 ligase domain showed that the E3 ligase activity is essential for TRIM32-mediated NF-κB activation.Further experiments found that TRIM32 conjugates polyubiquitin onto OTULIN and the polyubiquitin blocks the interaction between HOIP and OTULIN,thereby activating NF-κB signaling.Taken together,we report a novel regulatory mechanism by which TRIM32-mediated non-proteolytic ubiquitination of OTULIN impedes the access of OTULIN to the LUBAC and promotes NF-κB activation.

Efficient purification of cell culture-derived classical swine fever virus by ultrafiltration and size-exclusion chromatography

Large-scale production of cell culture-based classical swine fever virus(CSFV)vaccine is hampered by the adverse reactions caused by contaminants from host cell and culture medium.Hence,we have developed an efficient method for purifying CSFV from cell-culture medium.Pure viral particles were obtained with two steps of tangential-flow filtration(TFF)and size-exclusion chromatography(SEC),and were compared with particles from ultracentrifugation by transmission electron microscopy(TEM),infectivity and recovery test,and real time fluorescent quantitative PCR(FQ-PCR).TFF concentrated the virus particles effectively with a retention rate of 98.5%,and 86.2%of viral particles were obtained from the ultrafiltration retentate through a Sepharose 4 F F column on a biological liquid chromatography system.CSFV purified by TFF-SEC or ultracentrifugation were both biologically active from 1.0×10–4.25 TCID50·mL^(–1) to 3.0×10^(–6.25) TCID50·mL^(–1),but the combination of TFF and SEC produced more pure virus particles than by ultracentrifugation alone.In addition,pure CSFV particles with the expected diameter of 40–60 nm were roughly spherical without any visible contamination.Mice immunized with CSFV purified by TFF-SEC produced higher antibody levels compared with immunization with ultracentrifugation-purified CSFV(P<0.05).The purification procedures in this study are reliable technically and feasible for purification of large volumes of viruses.
