Unlocking the potential of Dongting Lake-grown Miscanthus lutarioriparius biomass: A comprehensive quality analysis and bioproduct application study. THE SCIENCE OF THE TOTAL ENVIRONMENT 2023; 896:165276. [PMID: 37406706 DOI: 10.1016/j.scitotenv.2023.165276] [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: 05/02/2023] [Revised: 06/09/2023] [Accepted: 07/01/2023] [Indexed: 07/07/2023]
Abstract
Miscanthus lutarioriparius grown in Dongting Lake has an annual biomass yield potential of 1 million tons. However, with the shutdown of its previous utilization for paper-making, abandoning this huge amount of biomass has caused serious economic, ecological, and social problems. Constructing an industrial cluster to continuously convert biomass into various bioproducts is a win-win measure to address this dilemma. With the increasing confirmation of the importance of biomass quality affecting the conservation process, fully understanding the biomass characteristics of Dongting Lake-grown M. lutarioriparius is crucial for building a scientific industrial cluster. The present work is designed to explore the variation in biomass quality across the entire Dongting Lake area. Results show that the biomass contented with Cd, Mn, Zn, and Cr has significant geographical differences, with a general trend of Southern Dongting Lake-grown biomass having a higher concentration than that from Eastern and Western Dongting Lake areas. Moreover, significant differences are found in terms of biomass ash content, lignin content, and the degree of polymerization of cellulose (DP). The biomass with low ash content is generally from the entire Eastern Dongting Lake area and the northern part of the Western Dongting Lake area. Virtually all Western Dongting Lake-grown biomass has a low lignin content (approximately 18 %). Regarding the spatial variation of DP, Eastern Dongting Lake-grown biomass has a higher DP (average at 585.33) than that in Southern (575.15) and then Western Dongting Lake (529.16). Based on these quality indicators, the biomass production potentials for bioethanol, biochar, and xylo-oligosaccharide were calculated and visualized. Results show that biomass from almost the entire Western and Eastern Dongting Lake area is suitable for bioethanol and xylo-oligosaccharide production, while biomass from the Southern Dongting Lake area for biochar production. These results provide scientific guidance for the future utilization of Dongting Lake-grown M. lutarioriparius biomass.

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analysis of BnPP2C Gene Family in Response to Multiple Stresses in Ramie ( Boehmeria nivea L.). Int J Mol Sci 2023; 24:15282. [PMID: 37894962 PMCID: PMC10607689 DOI: 10.3390/ijms242015282] [Citation(s) in RCA: 2] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 09/13/2023] [Revised: 10/04/2023] [Accepted: 10/12/2023] [Indexed: 10/29/2023] Open
Abstract
The protein phosphatase 2C (PP2C), a key regulator of the ABA signaling pathway, plays important roles in plant growth and development, hormone signaling, and abiotic stress response. Although the PP2C gene family has been identified in many species, systematic analysis was still relatively lacking in ramie (Boehmeria nivea L.). In the present study, we identified 63 BnPP2C genes from the ramie genome, using bioinformatics analysis, and classified them into 12 subfamilies, and this classification was consistently supported by their gene structures and conserved motifs. In addition, we observed that the functional differentiation of the BnPP2C family of genes was restricted and that fragment replication played a major role in the amplification of the BnPP2C gene family. The promoter cis-regulatory elements of BnPP2C genes were mainly involved in light response regulation, phytohormone synthesis, transport and signaling, environmental stress response and plant growth and development regulation. We identified BnPP2C genes with tissue specificity, using ramie transcriptome data from different tissues, in rhizome leaves and bast fibers. The qRT-PCR results showed that the BnPP2C1, BnPP2C26 and BnPP2C27 genes had a strong response to drought, high salt and ABA, and there were a large number of stress-responsive elements in the promoter region of BnPP2C1 and BnPP2C26. The results suggested that BnPP2C1 and BnPP2C26 could be used as the candidate genes for drought and salt tolerance in ramie. These results provide a reference for further studies on the function of the PP2C gene and advance the development of the mechanism of ramie stress response, with a view to providing candidate genes for the molecular breeding of ramie for drought and salt tolerance.

Front Microbiol 2023; 14:1190716. [PMID: 37455751 PMCID: PMC10339320 DOI: 10.3389/fmicb.2023.1190716] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Figures] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 03/21/2023] [Accepted: 06/12/2023] [Indexed: 07/18/2023] Open
Abstract
Introduction Biochar and bioorganic fertilizer (BOF) application in agriculture has garnered increasing interest recently. However, the effects of biochar and BOF on rhizosphere soil microecology, especially in a region with saline-alkaline soil, remain largely unexplored. Methods In this study, we performed Illumina-based 16S rRNA sequencing to investigate the effects of biochar with or without BOF addition, as well as at different addition rates and particles sizes, on the microecology of saline-alkaline rhizosphere soil. Results In the field experiment, biochar and BOF application altered the rhizosphere soil microecology. Actinobacteriota, Proteobacteria, and Chloroflexi accounted for >60% of the total bacterial population in each treatment. In the different treatments, Actinobacteria and Alphaproteobacteria were the predominant classes; Micromonosporales and Vicinamibacterales were the dominant orders; norank_f__Geminicoccaceae and Micromonosporaceae were the most abundant families; and Micromonospora and norank_f_Geminicoccaceae were the predominant genera. Application of biochar with or without BOF decreased soil electrical conductivity (EC) by 7% -11.58% only at the depth of 10 cm below the surface, again, soil EC can be significantly reduced by an average of 4% at 10 cm depth soil after planting Sesbania cannabina. Soil organic carbon, organic matter, available potassium, and available phosphorus contents had significant effects on the soil bacterial community structure. Conclusion Co-application of biochar and BOF resulted in the greatest improvement of rhizosphere soil microecology, either by promoting plant growth or improving the nutrition and physicochemical properties of soil, followed by BOF alone and biochar alone. Additionally, higher application rate of biochar was better than lower application rate, and fine biochar had a stronger effect than coarse biochar. These results provide guidance for the development of new saline-alkaline soil remediation strategies.

Impact of Biochar and Bioorganic Fertilizer on Rhizosphere Bacteria in Saline-Alkali Soil. Microorganisms 2022; 10:microorganisms10122310.

Abstract
Biochar and bioorganic fertilizers (BOF) that are used in agriculture can, both directly and indirectly, impact rhizosphere soil microorganisms. However, changes to the halophyte rhizosphere bacterial community after applying biochar and BOF to saline−alkali soil have not been thoroughly described. This study has investigated the bacterial communities of halophytes in saline−alkali soil through the addition of different biochar and BOF formulas using Illumina-based sequencing of the 16S rRNA gene fragment. B_BOF (biochar and BOF combined application) had the best effect, either by promoting the plant growth or by improving the physical and chemical properties of the soil. The concentration of the rhizosphere bacterial communities correlated with the changes in soil organic matter (OM) and organic carbon (OC). Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Chloroflexi, and Acidobacteria accounted for >80% of the total bacteria in each treatment. In addition, the abundance of Micromonospora was much higher in response to B_BOF than to the other treatments. BOF, with or without biochar, significantly influenced the bacterial community composition in the saline−alkali soil. The OC, OM, total nitrogen, and the available phosphorus had significant effects on the bacterial structure of this soil. The complex correlation of the bacterial communities between CK and B_BOF was higher compared to that between CK and FB or between CK and BOF. These findings suggested that the plant growth, the soil characteristics, and the diversity or community composition of the rhizosphere bacteria in saline−alkali soil were significantly influenced by B_BOF, followed by BOF, and then biochar; fine biochar had a stronger effect than medium or coarse biochar. This study provides an insight into the complex microbial compositions that emerge in response to biochar and BOF.

Abstract
Ramie is one of the most significant fiber crops and contributes to good quality fiber. Drought stress (DS) is one of the most devastating abiotic factors which is accountable for a substantial loss in crop growth and production and disturbing sustainable crop production. DS impairs growth, plant water relation, and nutrient uptake. Ramie has evolved a series of defense responses to cope with DS. There are numerous genes regulating the drought tolerance (DT) mechanism in ramie. The morphological and physiological mechanism of DT is well-studied; however, modified methods would be more effective. The use of novel genome editing tools like clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats (CRISPR) is being used to edit the recessive genes in crops to modify their function. The transgenic approaches are used to develop several drought-tolerant varieties in ramie, and further identification of tolerant genes is needed for an effective breeding plan. Quantitative trait loci (QTLs) mapping, transcription factors (TFs) and speed breeding are highly studied techniques, and these would lead to the development of drought-resilient ramie cultivars. The use of hormones in enhancing crop growth and development under water scarcity circumstances is critical; however, using different concentrations and testing genotypes in changing environments would be helpful to sort the tolerant genotypes. Since plants use various ways to counter DS, investigating mechanisms of DT in plants will lead to improved DT in ramie. This critical review summarized the recent advancements on DT in ramie using novel molecular techniques. This information would help ramie breeders to conduct research studies and develop drought tolerant ramie cultivars.

Abstract
The competition between weeds and crops for soil nutrients is affected by soil microorganisms, which drive diverse ecological processes and are critical in maintaining the stability of agroecosystems. However, the effects of plant species identity, particularly between forage and weed, on soil microbial diversity, composition, and association are not well understood. Here, we investigate the soil physicochemical properties and bacterial/fungal communities in an agroecosystem with native alfalfa [Medicago stativa (Ms)] and five common weed species (Digitaria sanguinalis, Echinochloa crusgalli, Acalypha australis, Portulaca oleracea, and Chenopodium album) in the North China Plain. The five weeds had a lower plant carbon content than Ms. while the opposite was true for plant nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations. The Shannon diversity of bacterial and fungal communities of the five weeds were significantly lower than in Ms. Soil pH and PO43−-P were identified as the most important factors in shaping the relative abundances of bacteria (Sphingomonadaceae) and fungi (Pleosporaceae), respectively. Importantly, the weeds greatly inhibited the growth of pathogenic fungi (Nectriaceae and Pleosporaceae). Bacterial co-occurrence networks depended on specific species, indicating that Ms. harbored co-occurrence networks that were more complex than those in the bacterial communities of other weed groups. Our study examines how soil nutrients and the soil microbial community structure of five weed species changed in an Ms. field. This analysis of the microbial ecological network enhances our understanding of the influence of weeds on the soil microbiome in agroecosystems.

Abstract
Root-associated microbial communities play important roles in plant growth and development. However, little attention has been paid to the microbial community structures associated with cassava, which is a staple food for approximately 800 million people worldwide. Here, we studied the diversity and structure of tuber endosphere and rhizosphere bacterial communities in fourteen cassava genotypes: SC5, SC8, SC9, SC205, KU50, R72, XL1, FX01, SC16, 4612, 587, 045, S0061, and 1110. The results of bacterial 16S rDNA sequencing showed that the richness and diversity of bacteria in the rhizosphere were higher than those in the tuber endosphere across the 14 cassava genotypes. After sequencing, 21 phyla and 310 genera were identified in the tuberous roots, and 36 phyla and 906 genera were identified in the rhizosphere soils. The dominant phylum across all tuber samples was Firmicutes, and the dominant phyla across all rhizosphere samples were Actinobacteria, Proteobacteria, and Acidobacteria. The numbers of core bacterial taxa within the tuber endospheres and the rhizospheres of all cassava genotypes were 11 and 236, respectively. Principal coordinate analysis and hierarchical cluster analysis demonstrated significant differences in the compositions of rhizosphere soil microbiota associated with the different cassava genotypes. Furthermore, we investigated the metabolic changes in tuber roots of three genotypes, KU50, SC205, and SC9. The result showed that the abundances of Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, and Actinobacteria in tuber samples were positively correlated with organic acids and lipids and negatively correlated with vitamins and cofactors. These results strongly indicate that there are clear differences in the structure and diversity of the bacterial communities associated with different cassava genotypes.
