Steam Explosion-Assisted Extraction of Polysaccharides from Pleurotus eryngii and Its Influence on Structural Characteristics and Antioxidant Activity. Foods 2024; 13:1229. [PMID: 38672901 PMCID: PMC11049414 DOI: 10.3390/foods13081229] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/28/2024] [Revised: 04/11/2024] [Accepted: 04/15/2024] [Indexed: 04/28/2024] Open
Abstract
Pleurotus eryngii (PE) has been sought after for its various health benefits and high content of phenolic compounds. This study explored the feasibility of steam explosion (SE)-assisted extraction of polysaccharides with high antioxidant capacities from PE. An orthogonal experimental design (OED) was used to optimize the SE-assisted extraction of PE. The influence of the optimized SE-assisted extraction on the physicochemical properties of PE polysaccharides was determined by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), monosaccharide compositional analysis and antioxidant capacity assays. Under optimal SE conditions, SE-assisted extraction increased the polysaccharide yield by 138% compared to extraction without SE-assistance. In addition, SEM demonstrated that SE-assisted extraction markedly altered the spatial structure of Pleurotus eryngii polysaccharides (PEP), and monosaccharide compositional analysis revealed that this pretreatment significantly increased the proportions of some monosaccharides, such as glucose, rhamnose and arabinose, in the isolated PEP. FTIR spectra indicated no change in the major chemical functional groups of PEP. PEP extracted by SE-assisted extraction had significantly increased free radical scavenging and antioxidant capacities. In conclusion, SE-assisted extraction appears to be a novel polysaccharide extraction technology, which markedly increases extraction yields and efficiency and can increase the biological activity of polysaccharide extracts.

ECOTOXICOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL SAFETY 2024; 273:116166. [PMID: 38430577 DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2024.116166] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/03/2023] [Revised: 02/26/2024] [Accepted: 02/27/2024] [Indexed: 03/04/2024]
Abstract
Nanotechnology is one of the most recent approaches employed to defend plants against both biotic and abiotic stress including heavy metals such as Cadmium (Cd). In this study, we evaluated the effects of titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles (TiO2 NPs) in alleviating Cd stress in Tetrastigma hemsleyanum Diels et Gilg. Compared with Cd treatment, TiO2 NPs decreased leaf Cd concentration, restored Cd exposure-related reduction in the biomass to about 69% of control and decreased activities of antioxidative enzymes. Integrative analysis of transcriptome and metabolome revealed 325 differentially expressed genes associated with TiO2 NP treatment, most of which were enriched in biosynthesis of secondary metabolites. Among them, the flavonoid and phenylpropanoid biosynthetic pathways were significantly regulated to improve the growth of T. hemsleyanum when treated with Cd. In the KEGG Markup Language (KGML) network analysis, we found some commonly regulated pathways between Cd and Cd+TiO2 NP treatment, including phenylpropanoid biosynthesis, ABC transporters, and isoflavonoid biosynthesis, indicating their potential core network positions in controlling T. hemsleyanum response to Cd stress. Overall, our findings revealed a complex response system for tolerating Cd, encompassing the transportation, reactive oxygen species scavenging, regulation of gene expression, and metabolite accumulation in T. hemsleyanum. Our results indicate that TiO2 NP can be used to reduce Cd toxicity in T. hemsleyanum.

Abstract
Nitric oxide (NO) is synthesized in all kingdoms of life, where it plays a role in the regulation of various physiological and developmental processes. In terms of endogenous NO biology, fungi have been less well researched than mammals, plants, and bacteria. In this review, we summarize and discuss the studies to date on intracellular NO biosynthesis and function in fungi. Two mechanisms for NO biosynthesis, NO synthase (NOS)-mediated arginine oxidation and nitrate- and nitrite-reductase-mediated nitrite reduction, are the most frequently reported. Furthermore, we summarize the multifaceted functions of NO in fungi as well as its role as a signaling molecule in fungal growth regulation, development, abiotic stress, virulence regulation, and metabolism. Finally, we present potential directions for future research on fungal NO biology.

Abstract
While the biological role of naturally occurring nitric oxide (NO) in filamentous fungi has been uncovered, the underlying molecular regulatory networks remain unclear. In this study, we conducted an analysis of transcriptome profiles to investigate the initial stages of understanding these NO regulatory networks in Neurospora crassa, a well-established model filamentous fungus. Utilizing RNA sequencing, differential gene expression screening, and various functional analyses, our findings revealed that the removal of intracellular NO resulted in the differential transcription of 424 genes. Notably, the majority of these differentially expressed genes were functionally linked to processes associated with carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism. Furthermore, our analysis highlighted the prevalence of four specific protein domains (zinc finger C2H2, PLCYc, PLCXc, and SH3) in the encoded proteins of these differentially expressed genes. Through protein-protein interaction network analysis, we identified eight hub genes with substantial interaction connectivity, with mss-4 and gel-3 emerging as possibly major responsive genes during NO scavenging, particularly influencing vegetative growth. Additionally, our study unveiled that NO scavenging led to the inhibition of gene transcription related to a protein complex associated with ribosome biogenesis. Overall, our investigation suggests that endogenously produced NO in N. crassa likely governs the transcription of genes responsible for protein complexes involved in carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism, as well as ribosomal biogenesis, ultimately impacting the growth and development of hyphae.

BMC Genomics 2023; 24:552. [PMID: 37723428 PMCID: PMC10506213 DOI: 10.1186/s12864-023-09669-8] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/29/2023] [Accepted: 09/11/2023] [Indexed: 09/20/2023] Open
Abstract
BACKGROUND Pleurotus giganteus is a commonly cultivated mushroom with notable high temperature resistance, making it significant for the growth of the edible fungi industry in the tropics. Despite its practical importance,, the genetic mechanisms underlying its ability to withstand high temperature tolerance remain elusive. RESULTS In this study, we performed high-quality genome sequencing of a monokaryon isolated from a thermotolerant strain of P. giganteus. The genome size was found to be 40.11 Mb, comprising 17 contigs and 13,054 protein-coding genes. Notably, some genes related to abiotic stress were identified in genome, such as genes regulating heat shock protein, protein kinase activity and signal transduction. These findings provide valuable insights into the genetic basis of P. giganteus' high temperature resistance. Furthermore, the phylogenetic tree showed that P. giganteus was more closely related to P. citrinopileatus than other Pleurotus species. The divergence time between Pleurotus and Lentinus was estimated as 153.9 Mya, and they have a divergence time with Panus at 168.3 Mya, which proved the taxonomic status of P. giganteus at the genome level. Additionally, a comparative transcriptome analysis was conducted between mycelia treated with 40 °C heat shock for 18 h (HS) and an untreated control group (CK). Among the 2,614 differentially expressed genes (DEGs), 1,303 genes were up-regulated and 1,311 were down-regulated in the HS group. The enrichment analysis showed that several genes related to abiotic stress, including heat shock protein, DnaJ protein homologue, ubiquitin protease, transcription factors, DNA mismatch repair proteins, and zinc finger proteins, were significantly up-regulated in the HS group. These genes may play important roles in the high temperature adaptation of P. giganteus. Six DEGs were selected according to fourfold expression changes and were validated by qRT-PCR, laying a good foundation for further gene function analysis. CONCLUSION Our study successfully reported a high-quality genome of P. giganteus and identified genes associated with high-temperature tolerance through an integrative analysis of the genome and transcriptome. This study lays a crucial foundation for understanding the high-temperature tolerance mechanism of P. giganteus, providing valuable insights for genetic modification of P. giganteus strains and the development of high-temperature strains for the edible fungus industry, particularly in tropical regions.

Jin X, Wu P, Li P, Xiong C, Gui M, Huang W. Transcriptome analysis reveals insight into the protective effect of N-acetylcysteine against cadmium toxicity in Ganoderma lucidum (Polyporales: Polyporaceae). ENVIRONMENTAL SCIENCE AND POLLUTION RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2023; 30:58436-58449. [PMID: 36991205 DOI: 10.1007/s11356-023-26635-9] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/31/2022] [Accepted: 03/21/2023] [Indexed: 05/10/2023]
Abstract
Ganoderma lucidum is widely cultivated and used as traditional medicine in China and other Asian countries. As a member of macrofungi, Ganoderma lucidum is also prone to bioaccumulation of cadmium and other heavy metals in a polluted environment, which affects the growth and production of Ganoderma lucidum, as well as human health. N-Acetyl-L-cysteine (NAC) is considered a general antioxidant and free radical scavenger that is involved in the regulation of various stress responses in plants and animals. However, whether NAC could regulate cadmium stress responses in macrofungi, particularly edible fungi, is still unknown. In this work, we found that the exogenous NAC could alleviate Cd-induced growth inhibition and reduce the cadmium accumulation in Ganoderma lucidum. The application of the NAC cloud also inhibit cadmium-induced H2O2 production in the mycelia. By using transcriptome analysis, 2920 and 1046 differentially expressed unigenes were identified in "Cd100 vs CK" and "NAC_Cd100 vs Cd100," respectively. These differential unigenes were classified into a set of functional categories and pathways, which indicated that various biological pathways may play critical roles in the protective effect of NAC against Cd‑induced toxicity in Ganoderma lucidum. Furthermore, it suggested that the ATP-binding cassette transporter, ZIP transporter, heat shock protein, glutathione transferases, and Cytochrome P450 genes contributed to the increased tolerance to cadmium stress after NAC application in Ganoderma lucidum. These results provide new insight into the physiological and molecular response of Ganoderma lucidum to cadmium stress and the protective role of NAC against cadmium toxicity.

Abstract
Heat shock proteins (HSPs) play critical roles in regulating different mechanisms under high-temperature conditions. HSPs have been identified and well-studied in different plants. However, there is a lack of information about their genomic organization and roles in medicinal plants and fungi, especially in Wolfi-poria cocos (W. cocos). We identified sixteen heat shock proteins (HSPs) in W. cocos and analyzed in terms of phylogenetic analysis, gene structure, motif distribution patterns, physiochemical properties, and expression comparison in different strains. Based on phylogenetic analysis, HSPs were divided into five subgroups (WcHSP100, WcHSP90, WcHSP70, WcHSP60, and WcsHSP). Subgroups WcHSP100s, WcHSP90s, WcHSP70s, WcHSP60, and WcsHSPs were further divided into 3, 2, 3, 1, and 6 subfamilies, respectively. Moreover, the expression profiling of all HSP genes in five strains of W. cocos under different temperature extremes revealed that expression of most HSPs were induced by high temperature. However, every subfamily showed different expression suggesting distinctive role in heat stress tolerance. WcHSP70-4, WcHSP90-1, and WcHSP100-1 showed the highest response to high temperature stress. Heterologous expression of WcHSP70-4, WcHSP90-1, and WcHSP100-1 genes in Escherichia coli enhanced survival rate of E. coli during heat stress. These findings suggest the role of W. cocos heat shock genes in the high temperature stress tolerance.

Abstract
The arsenic (As, III) and cadmium (Cd, II) accumulation and tolerance traits of a new strain Pleurotus pulmonarius MT were evaluated, and the utilization of the strain for repairing contaminated liquid and soil was explored. The hypha cultivated in potato dextrose agar (PDA) exhibited medium or high Cd accumulation (0 to 320 mg/L), medium Cd tolerance (maximum tolerated concentration, MTC ≥ 640 mg/L), medium As accumulation (0 to 80 mg/L), and high As tolerance (MTC > 1280 mg/L). The hypha has application potential in processes related to the removal of Cd and As in aqueous pollutants at concentrations of 80 mg/L Cd and 20 mg/L As. The trends obtained for the fruiting bodies of P. pulmonarius MT seemed to deviate from those of the hypha of this strain. The results show that the fruiting bodies featured medium As accumulation (0 to 40 mg/kg), medium As tolerance (MTC > 160 mg/kg), medium Cd accumulation (0 to 10 mg/kg), and high Cd tolerance (MTC > 1280 mg/kg). The fruiting bodies of P. pulmonarius MT were utilized in processes related to the recovery of Cd and As in substrates, that is, 12% contaminated soil mixed with 50 mg/kg Cd and 200 mg/kg As; thus, the hypha and fruiting bodies of P. pulmonarius MT can be used for the decontamination of water and soil containing As(III) and Cd(II).

Abstract
Macroscopic fungi, mainly higher basidiomycetes and some ascomycetes, are considered medicinal mushrooms and have long been used in different areas due to their pharmaceutically/nutritionally valuable bioactive compounds. However, the low production of these bioactive metabolites considerably limits the utilization of medicinal mushrooms both in commerce and clinical trials. As a result, many attempts, ranging from conventional methods to novel approaches, have been made to improve their production. The novel strategies include conducting omics investigations, constructing genome-scale metabolic models, and metabolic engineering. So far, genomics and the combined use of different omics studies are the most utilized omics analyses in medicinal mushroom research (both with 31% contribution), while metabolomics (with 4% contribution) is the least. This article is the first attempt for reviewing omics investigations in medicinal mushrooms with the ultimate aim of bioactive compound overproduction. In this regard, the role of these studies and systems biology in elucidating biosynthetic pathways of bioactive compounds and their contribution to metabolic engineering will be highlighted. Also, limitations of omics investigations and strategies for overcoming them will be provided in order to facilitate the overproduction of valuable bioactive metabolites in these valuable organisms.

Abstract
BACKGROUND Pleurotus eryngii is a kind of edible fungi with good quality, and it is popular among consumers. At present, some adulterated edible fungi are available in the market. The rights and interests of consumers can be ensured by establishing a practical edible fungi detection system. Among the existing methods for detecting food adulteration, endogenous reference gene amplification is convenient and reliable. However, no ideal endogenous reference gene is available for P. eryngii. METHODS AND RESULTS In this study, s9ap was screened as an endogenous reference gene through sequence alignment. Qualitative and quantitative PCR analysis of this gene was carried out in one P. eryngii variety and 18 other species. The detection limit of quantitative PCR was 400 pg, and no s9ap amplification products were detected in the 18 other species. CONCLUSIONS This study confirmed that s9ap was an ideal endogenous reference gene for the detection of P. eryngii. This method was also suitable for processed food products.

Abstract
Transcriptomics analysis of polyethylene (PE) on lignification of P. eryngii. Differentially expressed genes are enriched in process of lignin decomposition. PE delayed lignification by regulation of gene related to lignin metabolism. Visualization of lignin changes in P. eryngii by confocal Raman microspectroscopy.
Transcriptome analysis is important for the quality improvement of edible fungi, however, the effect of polyethylene (PE) packaging on the preservation of Pleurotus eryngii at the transcriptome level still needs to be further investigated. In order to elucidate the effect of PE on delaying lignification of P. eryngii, this study focused on exploring effects of PE on enzymes and genes involved in lignification. The results showed that PE packaging delayed the deterioration of phenotype, color difference and weight loss rate of P. eryngii, inhibited lignin and H2O2 content and maintained firmness and cellulose content. The activities of PAL, POD, 4-CL were inhibited, and more laccase expression was activated. Fifty-five differentially expressed genes associated with laccase, multifunctional peroxidase (VP), POD and 4-CL were screened from 10 d, 20 d and 30 d transcriptome data. These results show that PE could inhibit lignification of P. eryngii by up-regulating laccase and VP related genes involved in lignin decomposition and down-regulating the expression of genes involved in lignin synthesis. Meanwhile, we employed Confocal Raman microspectroscopy (CRM) to realize lignin cell level visualization and PE could reduce lignin deposition and weaken the lignin signal bands formed. Therefore, PE can alleviate the lignification of P. eryngii during storage by regulating the expression of specific genes, advancing the understanding of lignification in postharvest P. eryngii at the molecular level, and CRM has the potential to detect the changes of P. eryngii cell wall.

Nitric oxide enhances resistance of Pleurotus eryngii to cadmium stress by alleviating oxidative damage and regulating of short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase family.

Abstract
The function and mechanism of nitric oxide (NO) in regulating Pleurotus eryngii biological response to cadmium (Cd) stress was evaluated by using anti-oxidation and short-chain dehydrogenase/reductase (SDR) family analysis. The fresh biomass of P. eryngii mycelia sharply decreased after treatment with 50 µM Cd; the lipid peroxidation and H2O2 accumulation in P. eryngii were found responsible for it. Proper exogenous supply of NO (150 µM SNP) alleviated the oxidative damage induced by Cd stress in P. eryngii, which reduced the accumulation of thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) and H2O2. The activities of antioxidant enzymes (superoxide dismutase, peroxidase) were significantly increased to deal with Cd stress when treated with SNP (150 µM), and the content of proline was also closely related to NO-mediated reduction of Cd toxicity. Moreover, SDR family members were widely involved in the response to Cd stress, especially PleSCH70 gene was observed for the first time in participating in NO-mediated enhancement of Cd tolerance in P. eryngii. Taken together, this study provides new insights in understanding the tolerance mechanisms of P. eryngii to heavy metal and lays a foundation for molecular breeding of P. eryngii to improve its tolerance to environmental stress.

Transcriptome Analysis and SNP Identification Reveal That Heterologous Overexpression of Two Uncharacterized Genes Enhances the Tolerance of Magnaporthe oryzae to Manganese Toxicity. Microbiol Spectr 2022; 10:e0260521. [PMID: 35638819 PMCID: PMC9241697 DOI: 10.1128/spectrum.02605-21] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 12/13/2021] [Accepted: 04/20/2022] [Indexed: 11/20/2022] Open
Abstract
Manganese is a crucial trace element that constitutes the cofactors of many enzymes. However, excessive Mn2+ can be toxic for both prokaryotes and eukaryotes. The mechanism of fungal genetics and metabolism in response to Mn2+ stress remains understudied, warranting further studies. Magnaporthe oryzae is well-established as the most destructive pathogen of rice. A field strain, YN2046, more sensitive to Mn2+ toxicity than other strains, was obtained from a previous study. Herein, we explored the genetic mechanisms of Mn2+ sensitivity in YN2046 through comparative transcriptomic analyses. We found that many genes previously reported to participate in Mn2+ stress were not regulated in YN2046. These non-responsive genes might cause Mn2+ sensitivity in YN2046. Weight gene correlation network analysis (WGCNA) was performed to characterize the expression profile in YN2046. Some overexpressed genes were only found in the Mn2+ tolerant isolate YN125. Among these, many single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) were identified between YN125 and YN2046, which might disrupt the expression levels of Mn responsive genes. We cloned two uncharacterized genes, MGG_13347 and MGG_16609, from YN125 and transformed them to YN2046 with a strong promoter. Our results showed that the heterologous overexpression of two genes in YN2046 restored its sensitivity. Transcriptomic and biochemical analyses were performed to understand Mn tolerance mechanisms mediated by the two heterologous overexpressed genes. Our results showed that heterologous overexpression of these two genes activated downstream gene expression and metabolite production to restore M. oryzae sensitivity to Mn, implying that SNPs in responsive genes account for different phenotypes of the two strains under Mn stress. IMPORTANCE Heavy metals are used for fungicides as they target phytopathogen in multiple ways. Magnaporthe oryzae is the most destructive rice pathogen and is threatening global rice production. In the eukaryotes, the regulation mechanisms of Mn homeostasis often focus on the posttranslation, there were a few results about regulation at transcript level. The comparative transcriptome analysis showed that fewer genes were regulated in the Mn-sensitive strain. WGCNA and SNP analyses found that mutations in promoter and coding sequence regions might disrupt the expression of genes involved in Mn detoxification in the sensitive strain. We transferred two unannotated genes that were cloned from the Mn-tolerant strain into a sensitive strain with strong promoters, and the transformants exhibited an enhanced tolerance to Mn2+ toxicity. Transcriptome and biochemistry results indicated that heterologous overexpression of the two genes enhanced the tolerance to Mn toxicity by reactivation of downstream genes in M. oryzae.

Abstract
Pisolithus sp. 1 (P sp. 1) is an ectomycorrhizal fungus (EMF) with a strong Cr(VI) tolerance and reduction ability. The noninvasive microttest technique (NMT), real-time quantitative PCR (qRT-PCR), and the three-dimensional excitation-emission matrix (3D-EEM) were used to deeply explore the physiological mechanism of the P sp. 1 response to Cr(VI) and investigate the relationship between Cr(VI) reduction and denitrification in P sp. Cr(VI) induced the strongest elevations in nitrate reductase (NR) activity and NO production in the mycelia after treatment with Cr(VI) for 48 h under aerobic conditions. The NR inhibitor tungstate significantly inhibited Cr(VI) reduction, proton efflux and the expression of the NR gene (niaD) and NiR gene (niiA). In addition, NO was generated via NR-regulated denitrification. Combined treatments with Cr(VI) and the NO scavenger carboxy-PTIO (cPTIO) significantly increased O2-, H2O2 and MDA contents and reduced SDH, CAT, GSH, GR and GSNOR activity. Therefore, the NR-driven aerobic denitrifying process requires protons, and the generated NO reduces the oxidative stress effect of Cr(VI) on mycelia by reducing ROS accumulation and lipid peroxidation, enhancing mycelial and CAT activity, and promoting GSH recycling and regeneration. Psp.1 can also secrete humic acid-like and protein-like substances to combine with Cr(III) in a culture system.

Abstract
Vetiver grass (Chrysopogon zizanioides L.) has been used to remediate cadmium (Cd)-contaminated soil, while there have been few studies on the influence of Cd exposure on the rhizospheric microbial community and transcriptional expression of C. zizanioides. In this study, we investigated the response of the rhizospheric microbial community and transcriptional expression of C. zizanioides in 20 mg/kg Cd-contaminated soil. The results showed that Cd levels in the roots and shoots of C. zizanioides reached 250.80 and 73.40 mg/kg, respectively. The Cd exposure changed the rhizospheric bacterial community, resulting in the significant enrichment of Sphingomonas, Lysobacter, and Gemmatimonadetes in Cd-contaminated soil. In addition, 880 and 3,419 differentially expressed genes were identified in the plant roots and shoots, respectively, in response to Cd stress. Among these, the overexpressed genes associated with redox homeostasis, glutathione (GSH) metabolism, cell wall biosynthesis, and transmembrane transport pathways were found to participate in Cd detoxification in C. zizanioides. These findings could be useful for understanding the selective variation of the rhizospheric microbial community and the detoxification mechanisms of C. zizanioides in Cd phytoremediation.

Transcriptome Analysis Reveals Candidate Genes Involved in Light-Induced Primordium Differentiation in Pleurotus eryngii. Int J Mol Sci 2021; 23:ijms23010435.

Abstract
Pleurotus eryngii, a highly valued edible fungus, is one of the major commercially cultivated mushrooms in China. The development of P. eryngii, especially during the stage of primordium differentiation, is easily affected by light. However, the molecular mechanism underlying the response of primordium differentiation to light remains unknown. In the present study, primordium expression profiles under blue-light stimulation, red-light stimulation, and exposure to darkness were compared using high-throughput sequencing. A total of 16,321 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified from three comparisons. GO enrichment analysis showed that a large number of DEGs were related to light stimulation and amino acid biosynthesis. KEGG analyses demonstrated that the MAPK signaling pathway, oxidative phosphorylation pathway, and RNA transport were most active during primordium differentiation. Furthermore, it was predicted that the blue-light photoreceptor WC-1 and Deoxyribodipyrimidine photolyase PHR play important roles in the primordium differentiation of P. eryngii. Taken together, the results of this study provide a speculative mechanism that light induces primordium differentiation and a foundation for further research on fruiting body development in P. eryngii.

Abstract
Pleurotus has great potential for heavy metal mycoremediation. Using comparative transcriptome analysis, the response of Pleurotus ostreatus and Pleurotus cornucopiae under Cd contamination was evaluated. P. ostreatus and P. cornucopia accumulated 0.34 and 0.46 mg/g Cd in mycelium, respectively. Cd removal elevated with its concentration elevation, which reached 56.47% and 54.60% for P. ostreatus and P. cornucopia with Cd at 20 mg/L. Low-level Cd (≤ 1 mg/L) had no significant influence on either fungus, while varied response was observed under high-level Cd. 705 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in P. cornucopia at Cd1 and Cd20, whereas 12,551 DEGs in P. ostreatus. Differentially regulated functional categories and pathways were also identified. ATP-binding cassette transporters were involved in Cd transport in P. cornucopia, whereas the endocytosis and phagosome pathways were more enhanced in P. ostreatus. 26 enzymes including peroxisomal enzymes catalase and superoxide dismutase were upregulated in P. ostreatus, whereas only cytosolic catalase was overexpressed in P. cornucopia, suggesting their different Cd detoxification pathways. Also, the mitogen-activated protein kinase signaling pathway involved in Cd resistance in both species instead of glutathione metabolism, although more active in P. ostreatus. These findings provided new insight into the molecular mechanism of mycoremediation and accumulator screening.

Abstract
Paecilomyces penicillatus is one of the pathogens of morels, which greatly affects the yield and quality of Morchella spp.. In the present study, we de novo assembled the genome sequence of the fungus P. penicillatus SAAS_ppe1. We analyzed the transcriptional profile of P. penicillatus SAAS_ppe1 infection of Morchella importuna at different stages (3 days and 6 days after infection) and the response of M. importuna using the transcriptome. The assembled genome sequence of P. penicillatus SAAS_ppe1 was 39.78 Mb in length (11 scaffolds; scaffold N50, 6.50 Mb), in which 99.7% of the expected genes were detected. A total of 7.48% and 19.83% clean transcriptional reads from the infected sites were mapped to the P. penicillatus genome at the early and late stages of infection, respectively. There were 3,943 genes differently expressed in P. penicillatus at different stages of infection, of which 24 genes had increased expression with the infection and infection stage, including diphthamide biosynthesis, aldehyde reductase, and NAD (P)H-hydrate epimerase (P < 0.05). Several genes had variable expression trends at different stages of infection, indicating P. penicillatus had diverse regulation patterns to infect M. importuna. GO function, involving cellular components, and KEGG pathways, involving glycerolipid metabolism, and plant-pathogen interaction were significantly enriched during infection by P. penicillatus. The expression of ten genes in M. importuna increased during the infection and infection stage, and these may regulate the response of M. importuna to P. penicillatus infection. This is the first comprehensive study on P. penicillatus infection mechanism and M. importuna response mechanism, which will lay a foundation for understanding the fungus-fungus interactions, gene functions, and variety breeding of pathogenic and edible fungi.

Abstract
In this study, a higher metal ions-resistant bacterium, Stenotrophomonas rhizophila JC1 was isolated from contaminated soil in Jinchang city, Gansu Province, China. The Pb2+ (120 mg/L) and Cu2+ (80 mg/L) removal rate of the strain reached at 76.9% and 83.4%, respectively. The genome comprises 4268161 bp in a circular chromosome with 67.52% G + C content and encodes 3719 proteins. The genome function analysis showed czc operon, mer operon, cop operon, arsenic detoxification system in strain JC1 were contributed to the removal of heavy metals. Three efflux systems (i.e., RND, CDF, and P-ATPase) on strain JC1 genome could trigger the removal of divalent cations from cells. cAMP pathway and ABC transporter pathway might be involved in the transport and metabolism of heavy metals. The homology analysis exhibited multi-gene families such as ABC transporters, heavy metal-associated domain, copper resistance protein, carbohydrate-binding domain were distributed across 410 orthologous groups. In addition, heavy metal-responsive transcription regulator, thioredoxin, heavy metal transport/detoxification protein, divalent-cation resistance protein CutA, arsenate reductase also played important roles in the heavy metals adsorption and detoxification process.

Abstract
Industrial processes and mining of coal and metal ores are generating a number of threats by polluting natural water bodies. Contamination of heavy metals (HMs) in water and soil is the most serious problem caused by industrial and mining processes and other anthropogenic activities. The available literature suggests that existing conventional technologies are costly and generated hazardous waste that necessitates disposal. So, there is a need for cheap and green approaches for the treatment of such contaminated wastewater. Bioremediation is considered a sustainable way where fungi seem to be good bioremediation agents to treat HM-polluted wastewater. Fungi have high adsorption and accumulation capacity of HMs and can be potentially utilized. The most important biomechanisms which are involved in HM tolerance and removal by fungi are bioaccumulation, bioadsorption, biosynthesis, biomineralisation, bioreduction, bio-oxidation, extracellular precipitation, intracellular precipitation, surface sorption, etc. which vary from species to species. However, the time, pH, temperature, concentration of HMs, the dose of fungal biomass, and shaking rate are the most influencing factors that affect the bioremediation of HMs and vary with characteristics of the fungi and nature of the HMs. In this review, we have discussed the application of fungi, involved tolerance and removal strategies in fungi, and factors affecting the removal of HMs.

[PMID: 33042065 PMCID: PMC7526509 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2020.558104] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.5] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 05/01/2020] [Accepted: 08/24/2020] [Indexed: 01/26/2023] Open
Abstract
Lentinula edodes, also known as Xiang'gu, is commonly eaten in cultures around the world. However, L. edodes is particularly susceptible to enrichment with heavy metals, particularly cadmium (Cd), which is toxic to human health. Understanding the molecular mechanism and mining key genes involved in Cd enrichment will facilitate genetic modification of L. edodes strains. Two L. edodes genotypes, Le4625 (with higher Cd enrichment capability) and Le4606 (with lower Cd enrichment capability) were used in this study. The Cd concentrations in the mycelia of the tested genotypes differed significantly after Cd (0.1 mg/L) exposure; and the Cd content in Le4625 (1.390 ± 0.098 mg/kg) was approximately three-fold that in Le4606 (0.440 ± 0.038 mg/kg) after 7 h of Cd exposure. A total of 24,592 transcripts were assessed by RNA-Seq to explore variance in Cd accumulation. Firstly, differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were analyzed separately following Cd exposure. In comparison with Ld4625, Ld4606 showed a greater number of Cd-induced changes in transcription. In Ld4606, DEGs following Cd exposure were associated with transmembrane transport, glutathione transfer and cytochrome P450, indicating that these genes could be involved in Cd resistance in L. edodes. Next, Le4606 and Le4625 were exposed to Cd, after which DEGs were identified to explore genetic factors affecting Cd accumulation. After Cd exposure, DEGs between Le4606 and Le4625 encoded proteins involved in multiple biological pathways, including transporters on the membrane, cell wall modification, oxidative stress response, translation, degradation, and signaling pathways. Cadmium enrichment in cells may activate MAPK signaling and the anti-oxidative stress response, which can subsequently alter signal transduction and the intracellular oxidation/reduction balance. Furthermore, several possible candidate genes involved in the Cd accumulation were identified, including the major facilitator superfamily genes, heat shock proteins, and laccase 11, a multicopper oxidase. This comparison of the transcriptomes of two L. edodes strains with different capacities for Cd accumulation provides valuable insight into the cultivation of mushrooms with less Cd enrichment and also serves as a reference for the construction of engineered strains for environmental pollution control.

Abstract
Drought is one of the most common environmental factors that affect alfalfa germination and development. Nitric oxide (NO) could mediate stress tolerance in plants. The goal of this study was to determine exogenous NO donor-mediated drought adaption molecular mechanisms during the alfalfa germination stage. In this study, physiological and transcriptome analyses were performed on 7 days of the growth period seedlings by sodium nitroprusside (SNP) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) treatment. The results showed that SNP supplementation alleviated malondialdehyde accumulation, increased levels of proline and soluble sugars, and enhanced antioxidant enzyme activity under osmotic stress conditions. RNA-Seq experiments identified 5828 genes exhibiting differential expression in seedlings treated with PEG, SNP, or SNP+PEG relative to seedlings treated with distilled water. Of these DEGs, 3235 were upregulated, and 2593 were downregulated relative to the controls. Fifteen DEGs were amplified by qRT-PCR to verify the changes in expression determined by RNA-Seq, revealing that PIF3, glnA, PLCG1, and RP-S11e exhibited enhanced expression under the SNP+PEG treatment. SNP was found to modulate redox homeostasis-related genes such as GSTs, SOD2, GPX, and RBOH, and triggered calcium signaling transduction. It also induced some key genes relating to the abscisic acid, ethylene, and auxin signaling transduction in response to PEG stress. Conversely, genes associated with secondary metabolite biosynthesis and the metabolism of starch and sucrose during osmotic stress were downregulated by SNP. These results provide new insights into SNP-mediated drought adaption mechanisms at transcriptome-wide in alfalfa and reveal key drought tolerance pathways in this species.

Abstract
In this study, a cadmium-tolerant bacterium, Enterobacter ludwigii LY6, was isolated from cadmium-contaminated soil in Shifang, Sichuan province, China. The cadmium chloride removal rate of the strain LY6 with a treatment of 100 mg/L cadmium chloride reached 56.0%. Scanning electron microscopy showed that exopolysaccharides (EPS) might be the main means of cadmium adsorption by the strain. X-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDS) analyses indicated that cadmium sulfide nanoparticles formed on the surface of bacteria cultured in a medium containing 100 mg/L cadmium chloride. In addition, the expression of several genes increased with the increase of the cadmium concentration in the medium, including the multiple antibiotic resistance proteins marA and marR, and the cold shock protein CspA. GO functions, such as the redox activity, respiratory chain and transport functions, and KEGG pathways involved in "bacterial chemotaxis" and "terpenoid backbone biosynthesis" were found to be closely related to bacterial cadmium tolerance and biosorption. This is the first report that E. ludwigii can reduce sulfate to form cadmium sulfide nanoparticles under high concentration cadmium exposure. The genes related to cadmium tolerance identified in this study lay a foundation for the genetic breeding of cadmium-tolerant strains.

Abstract
Tolypocladium guangdongense has a similar metabolite profile to Ophiocordyceps sinensis, a highly regarded fungus used for traditional Chinese medicine with high nutritional and medicinal value. Although the genome sequence of T. guangdongense has been reported, relatively little is known about the regulatory networks for fruiting body development and about the metabolite biosynthesis pathways. In order to address this, an analysis of transcriptome and proteome at differential developmental stages of T. guangdongense was performed. In total, 9076 genes were found to be expressed and 2040 proteins were identified. There were a large number of genes that were significantly differentially expressed between the mycelial stage and the stages. Interestingly, the correlation between the transcriptomic and proteomic data was low, suggesting the importance of the post-transcriptional processes in the growth and development of T. guangdongense. Among the genes/proteins that were both differentially expressed during the developmental process, there were numerous heat shock proteins and transcription factors. In addition, there were numerous proteins involved in terpenoid, ergosterol, adenosine and polysaccharide biosynthesis that also showed significant downregulation in their expression levels during the developmental process. Furthermore, both tryptophan and tryptamine were present at higher levels in the primordium stage. However, indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) levels continuously decreased as development proceeded, and the enzymes involved in IAA biosynthesis were also clearly differentially downregulated. These data could be meaningful in studying the molecular mechanisms of fungal development, and for the industrial and medicinal application of macro-fungi.

Abstract
Heavy metal (HM) stress is a major hazard, which significantly affects plant growth and development. In order to confront HM stress, plants directly or indirectly regulate the levels of endogenous nitric oxide (NO), a redox-related signaling molecule involved in wide range of plant growth and development as well as in response to HM stress. In addition, there is now compelling experimental evidence that NO usually mediates signaling processes through interactions with different biomolecules like phytohormones to regulate HM tolerance. Apart from phytohormones, NO partly operates through posttranslational modification of proteins, notably via S-nitrosylation in response to HM stress. Recently, the roles of S-nitrosylation as a regulator of plant responses to HM stress and S-nitrosylated candidates have also been established and detected. Here, we describe the roles of NO in confronting HM phytotoxicity in plants with a particular focus on the presentation and discussion of recent data obtained in this field, which involves in the function of various phytohormones and S-nitrosylation during plant responses to HM stress. Additionally, both importance and challenges of future work are outlined in order to further elucidate the specific mechanisms underlying the roles of NO in plant responses to HM stress.

Abstract
For decades, a vast array of innovative biosorbents have been found out and used in the removal of heavy metals, including bacteria, algae and fungi, etc. Although extensive biological species have been tried as a biosorbent for heavy metals removal, for removal efficiency or economy efficiency limited, it has failed to make a substantial breakthrough in practical application. Thus, many improved methods based on biosorbents emerged. In this review, based on the literature and our research results, we highlight three types of novel methods for biosorbents removal of heavy metals: chemical modification of biosorbents; biomass and chemical materials combination; multiple biomass complex systems. We mainly focus on their configuration, biosorption performance, their creation method, regeneration/reuse, their application and development in the future. Through the comparative analysis of various methods, we think that intracellular autogenous nanomaterials may open up another window in biosorption of heavy metals area. At the same time, the combination of various treatment methods will be the development tendency of heavy metal pollution treatment in the future.

Abstract
In the recent times, plants are facing certain types of environmental stresses, which give rise to formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) such as hydroxyl radicals, hydrogen peroxides, superoxide anions and so on. These are required by the plants at low concentrations for signal transduction and at high concentrations, they repress plant root growth. Apart from the ROS activities, hydrogen sulfide (H2 S) and nitric oxide (NO) have major contributions in regulating growth and developmental processes in plants, as they also play key roles as signaling molecules and act as chief plant immune defense mechanisms against various biotic as well as abiotic stresses. H2 S and NO are the two pivotal gaseous messengers involved in growth, germination and improved tolerance in plants under stressed and non-stress conditions. H2 S and NO mediate cell signaling in plants as a response to several abiotic stresses like temperature, heavy metal exposure, water and salinity. They alter gene expression levels to induce the synthesis of antioxidant enzymes, osmolytes and also trigger their interactions with each other. However, research has been limited to only cross adaptations and signal transductions. Understanding the change and mechanism of H2 S and NO mediated cell signaling will broaden our knowledge on the various biochemical changes that occur in plant cells related to different stresses. A clear understanding of these molecules in various environmental stresses would help to confer biotechnological applications to protect plants against abiotic stresses and to improve crop productivity.

Abstract
Chromium (Cr) is one of the most toxic heavy metals and a health hazard to millions of people worldwide. Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi can assist plants in phytoremediation of heavy metal contaminated soil. Cr tolerance differs among ECM fungal varieties, but the underlying molecular mechanisms of Cr tolerance in ECM fungi are not clear. This study identified, analysed and compared the Cr(VI)-induced transcriptional changes between Cr(VI)-tolerant strain (Pisolithus sp. 1 LS-2017) and Cr(VI)-sensitive strain (Pisolithus sp. 2 LS-2017) by de novo transcriptomic analysis. The results showed that 93,642 assembled unique transcripts representing the 22,353 (46.76%) unigenes matched the proteins we have known in the Nr database and 47,801 unigenes were got from the Pisolithus spp. For DEGs between the control and 10 mg/L Cr(VI) treatment, cyanoamino acid metabolic, type I diabetes mellitus metabolism, nitrogen metabolism and beta-Alanine metabolism pathways were significantly enriched (p < 0.05) in Pisolithus sp. 1 LS-2017. Two nitrate reductase family genes (nidD, niiA) provide Cr(VI) tolerance for Pisolithus sp. 1 LS-2017 by regulating Cr(VI) reduction. In addition, NO produced by nidD, niiA regulated denitrification can alleviate Cr(VI) induced oxidative stress. In Pisolithus sp. 2 LS-2017, the alcC, aldA and lcf2 gene may alleviate Cr(VI) induced oxidative stress by protecting SH groups and increasing secondary metabolism, reducing detoxify aldehydes to carboxylic acids and producing LCPUFAs respectively; .T gene regulate Cr(VI) induced wound healing by pigmentation and stability of melanin in spore; MKP2 gene accelerate Cr(VI) induced cell death and gpmA gene regulated Cr(VI) induced energy emergency.

Abstract
Phytotoxicity of metals significantly contributes to the major loss in agricultural productivity. Among all the metals, copper (Cu) is one of essential metals, where it exhibits toxicity only at its supra-optimal level. Elevated Cu levels affect plants developmental processes from initiation of seed germination to the senescence, photosynthetic functions, growth and productivity. The use of plant growth regulators/phytohormones and other signaling molecules is one of major approaches for reversing Cu-toxicity in plants. Nitric oxide (NO) is a versatile and bioactive gaseous signaling molecule, involved in major physiological and molecular processes in plants. NO modulates responses of plants grown under optimal conditions or to multiple stress factors including elevated Cu levels. The available literature in this context is centered mainly on the role of NO in combating Cu stress with partial discussion on underlying mechanisms. Considering the recent reports, this paper: (a) overviews Cu uptake and transport; (b) highlights the major aspects of Cu-toxicity on germination, photosynthesis, growth, phenotypic changes and nutrient-use-efficiency; (c) updates on NO as a major signaling molecule; and (d) critically appraises the Cu-significance and mechanisms underlying NO-mediated alleviation of Cu-phytotoxicity. The outcome of the discussion may provide important clues for future research on NO-mediated mitigation of Cu-phytotoxicity.

Abstract
Copper is one of common contaminants in estuaries and coastal zones, which may cause physiological dysfunction in aquatic organisms. However, molecular response triggered by Cu have remained largely unknown in freshwater prawn Macrobrachium rosenbergii. In the present study, we performed transcriptomic analysis to characterize molecular mechanisms of copper immunotoxicity in gills from M. rosenbergii. A large number of potential simple sequence repeats (SSRs) and single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) loci in the transcriptome were identified. 19,417 and 8989 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were obtained at 3 h and 48 h after exposure, respectively. Most of these DEGs were down-regulated implying that gene expressions were largely inhibited by Cu, which might lead to impairments of biological functions. Functional enrichment analysis of these DEGs revealed that immune, detoxification and apoptosis were the differentially regulated processes by Cu stress. 12 DGEs involved in immune response and heavy metal detoxification were discovered and validated by qRT-PCR. The results indicated that the M. rosenbergii might counteract the toxicity of Cu at the transcriptomic level by increasing expressions of immune- and heavy metal detoxification-related genes, and these selected genes could be used as molecular indicators for Cu stress. Our study firstly reported the stress response at transcriptional level in M. rosenbergii during Cu exposure. The genes and pathways identified here not only give us new insight into molecular mechanisms underlying Cu toxicity effects in prawn, but facilitate biomarker identification and stress-resistant breeding studies.

Abstract
Alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) is an important perennial legume and used as a forage crop worldwide, and has extensive resistance to various abiotic stresses. Nitric oxide (NO) plays a critical role in response to external and internal cues to regulate plant growth and development. However, endogenous NO-mediated molecular mechanisms of drought tolerance in alfalfa is poorly understood. To get a deeper insight into the regulate pathway of NO, RNA-Seq was used to profile transcriptome changes of alfalfa seedlings, which were treated with NO scavenger under normal and drought conditions. A total of 1,025 and 3,461 differently-expressed genes (FDR < 0.0001; fold change ≥ 2) were observed while NO absence under normal and drought conditions, respectively. Based on GO enrich and KEGG pathway analysis, we found NO absence induced photosynthesis, carbon fixation in photosynthetic organisms and primary metabolism were significantly up-enriched. Most oxidoreductase, dehydrogenase, reductase and transferase genes were down-regulated in the above processes. Moreover, NO absence restrained chlorophyll biosynthesis and decreased different sugar content. Therefore, this work provides insights into the mechanism that NO-mediated enhanced photosynthesis and carbohydrate metabolism in alfalfa under drought stress.

Abstract
There have been no studies demonstrating the correlation between soil nutrient heterogeneity and cadmium (Cd) absorption of Bermudagrass. In this study, a pot experiment was carried out to study the correlation between them. The purpose is to find soil nutrient factors which are conducive to improving the Cd absorption and translocation. The eighth group had the largest total number of surviving plants, the highest Fv/Fo value (3.24) and the best growth characteristics. The fifth group had the lowest total number of surviving plants, Fv/Fo (2.47) and the worst growth. The Cd content of the fifth group (36.11 mg kg-1) was close to the eighth group (35.72 mg kg-1), but the two groups had significant differences in plant height, stem node length and stem node number (P < 0.05). The eighth group showed the highest contents of nitrate nitrogen (NO3--N), available potassium and urease activity. The fifth group showed the lowest NO3--N content, but the highest ammonium nitrogen (NH4+-N) and available phosphorus content. There was significant difference of the Cd bioconcentration factors (BCF) and translocation factor (TCF) between the fifth and the eighth group although they had the similar total soil Cd content (P < 0.05). The fifth group had the highest BCF and TCF. RDA analysis indicated the BCF and TCF were positively correlated with soil NH4+-N and available phosphorus and negatively correlated with soil NO3--N. The results demonstrated that soil NH4+-N and available phosphorus were important soil ecological factors to enhance Cd absorption and translocation of bermudagrass.
