Limit state equation and failure pressure prediction model of pipeline with complex loading.

Assessing failure pressure is critical in determining pipeline integrity. Current research primarily concerns the buckling performance of pressurized pipelines subjected to a bending load or axial compression force, with some also looking at the failure pressure of corroded pipelines. However, there is currently a lack of limit state models for pressurized pipelines with bending moments and axial forces. In this study, based on the unified yield criterion, we propose a limit state equation for steel pipes under various loads. The most common operating loads on buried pipelines are bending moment, internal pressure, and axial force. The proposed limit state equation for intact pipelines is based on a three-dimensional pipeline stress model with complex load coupling. Using failure data, we investigate the applicability of various yield criteria in assessing the failure pressure of pipelines with complex loads. We show that the evaluation model can be effectively used as a theoretical solution for assessing the failure pressure in such circumstances and for selecting appropriate yield criteria based on load condition differences.

Two-phase magnetic nanospheres with magnetic coupling effect encapsulated in porous carbon to achieve lightweight and efficient microwave absorbers.

Component selection is crucial for microwave absorbents. Multi-component absorbers are increasingly useful and can be prepared through the rational design and control of various electrical, magnetic, and other auxiliary components. In this paper, Ni3Fe/NiFe2O4 nanospheres with two-phase magnetism were designed for use as a multi-component absorber. Specifically, a Ni3Fe/ NiFe2O4@SPC composite with 3D networks was successfully fabricated by hydrothermal method, high-temperature carbonization for activation, and electrostatic self-assembly. The contact interface and coupling effect between the two magnetic components can promote the attenuation of electromagnetic waves. Moreover, the introduction of porous carbon successfully inhibits the easy aggregation of the magnetic particles. Impressively, with a filling load of 10 wt%, the optimal RL of the prepared Ni3Fe/NiFe2O4@SPC composite reaches -60.6 dB, and the effective absorption bandwidth is 5.2 GHz at 2 mm. The combination of two magnetic components and porous carbon in this multiphase microwave-absorbing composite demonstrates a feasible strategy for designing efficient microwave absorbers in the future.

Comparing Apples and Oranges: Advances in Disease Resistance Breeding of Woody Perennial Fruit Crops.

Apple and citrus are perennial tree fruit crops that are vital for nutritional security and agricultural economy and to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals of the United Nations. Apple scab and fire blight, along with Huanglongbing, canker, and tristeza virus, stand out as their most notorious diseases and annually destabilize fruit supply. An environmentally sound approach to managing these diseases is improving tree resistance through breeding and biotechnology. Perennial fruit tree germplasm collections are distributed globally and offer untapped potential as sources of resistance. However, long juvenility, specific pollination and flowering habits, and extensive outcrossing hinder apple and citrus breeding. Advances in breeding approaches including trans- and cis-genesis, genome editing, and rapid-cycle breeding, which, in addition to conventional crossbreeding, can all facilitate accelerated integration of resistance into elite germplasm. In addition, the global pool of available sources of resistance can be characterized by the existing genetic mapping and gene expression studies for accurate discovery of associated loci, genes, and markers to efficiently include these sources in breeding efforts. We discuss and propose a multitude of approaches to overcome the challenges of breeding for resistance in woody perennials and outline a technical path to reduce the time required for the ultimate deployment of disease-resistant cultivars.

Characterizing molecular and synaptic signatures in mouse models of late-onset Alzheimer's disease independent of amyloid and tau pathology.

INTRODUCTION: MODEL-AD (Model Organism Development and Evaluation for Late-Onset Alzheimer's Disease) is creating and distributing novel mouse models with humanized, clinically relevant genetic risk factors to capture the trajectory and progression of late-onset Alzheimer's disease (LOAD) more accurately. METHODS: We created the LOAD2 model by combining apolipoprotein E4 (APOE4), Trem2*R47H, and humanized amyloid-beta (Aß). Mice were subjected to a control diet or a high-fat/high-sugar diet (LOAD2+HFD). We assessed disease-relevant outcome measures in plasma and brain including neuroinflammation, Aß, neurodegeneration, neuroimaging, and multi-omics. RESULTS: By 18 months, LOAD2+HFD mice exhibited sex-specific neuron loss, elevated insoluble brain Aß42, increased plasma neurofilament light chain (NfL), and altered gene/protein expression related to lipid metabolism and synaptic function. Imaging showed reductions in brain volume and neurovascular uncoupling. Deficits in acquiring touchscreen-based cognitive tasks were observed. DISCUSSION: The comprehensive characterization of LOAD2+HFD mice reveals that this model is important for preclinical studies seeking to understand disease trajectory and progression of LOAD prior to or independent of amyloid plaques and tau tangles. HIGHLIGHTS: By 18 months, unlike control mice (e.g., LOAD2 mice fed a control diet, CD), LOAD2+HFD mice presented subtle but significant loss of neurons in the cortex, elevated levels of insoluble Ab42 in the brain, and increased plasma neurofilament light chain (NfL). Transcriptomics and proteomics showed changes in gene/proteins relating to a variety of disease-relevant processes including lipid metabolism and synaptic function. In vivo imaging revealed an age-dependent reduction in brain region volume (MRI) and neurovascular uncoupling (PET/CT). LOAD2+HFD mice also demonstrated deficits in acquisition of touchscreen-based cognitive tasks.

Key Challenges in Plant Pathology in the Next Decade.

Plant diseases significantly impact food security and food safety. It was estimated that food production needs to increase by 50% to feed the projected 9.3 billion people by 2050. Yet, plant pathogens and pests are documented to cause up to 40% yield losses in major crops, including maize, rice, and wheat, resulting in annual worldwide economic losses of approximately US$220 billion. Yield losses due to plant diseases and pests are estimated to be 21.5% (10.1 to 28.1%) in wheat, 30.3% (24.6 to 40.9%) in rice, and 22.6% (19.5 to 41.4%) in maize. In March 2023, The American Phytopathological Society (APS) conducted a survey to identify and rank key challenges in plant pathology in the next decade. Phytopathology subsequently invited papers that address those key challenges in plant pathology, and these were published as a special issue. The key challenges identified include climate change effect on the disease triangle and outbreaks, plant disease resistance mechanisms and its applications, and specific diseases including those caused by Candidatus Liberibacter spp. and Xylella fastidiosa. Additionally, disease detection, natural and man-made disasters, and plant disease control strategies were explored in issue articles. Finally, aspects of open access and how to publish articles to maximize the Findability, Accessibility, Interoperability, and Reuse of digital assets in plant pathology were described. Only by identifying the challenges and tracking progress in developing solutions for them will we be able to resolve the issues in plant pathology and ultimately ensure plant health, food security, and food safety.

BACKGROUND: Citrus is a major fruit crop, and RNA-sequencing (RNA-seq) data can be utilized to investigate its gene functions, heredity, evolution, development, and the detection of genes linked to essential traits or resistance to pathogens. However, it is challenging to use the public RNA-seq datasets for researchers without bioinformatics training, and expertise. RESULTS: OrangeExpDB is a web-based database that integrates transcriptome data of various Citrus spp., including C. limon (L.) Burm., C. maxima (Burm.) Merr., C. reticulata Blanco, C. sinensis (L.) Osbeck, and Poncirus trifoliata (L.) Raf., downloaded from the NCBI SRA database. It features a blast tool for browsing and searching, enabling quick download of expression matrices for different transcriptome samples. Expression of genes of interest can be easily generated by searching gene IDs or sequence similarity. Expression data in text format can be downloaded and presented as a heatmap, with additional sample information provided at the bottom of the webpage. CONCLUSIONS: Researchers can utilize OrangeExpDB to facilitate functional genomic analysis and identify key candidate genes, leveraging publicly available citrus RNA-seq datasets. OrangeExpDB can be accessed at http://www.orangeexpdb.com/ .

Xanthomonas as a model system for studying pathogen emergence and evolution.

In this review, we highlight studies where whole genome sequencing, comparative genomics and population genomics have provided unprecedented insights into past and ongoing pathogen evolution. These include new understanding of adaptive evolution of secretion systems and their effectors. We focus on Xanthomonas pathosystems that have seen intensive study and improved our understanding of pathogen emergence and evolution, particularly in the context of host specialization: citrus canker, bacterial blight of rice, and bacterial spot of tomato and pepper. Across pathosystems, pathogens appear to follow a pattern of bursts of evolution and diversification that impact host adaptation. There remains a need for studies on the mechanisms of host range evolution and genetic exchange among closely related but differentially host-specialized species, and to start moving beyond the study of specific strain and host cultivar pairwise interactions to thinking about these pathosystems in a community context.

The neuroimmune pathway of high-altitude adaptation: influence of erythrocytes on attention networks through inflammation and the autonomic nervous system.

Introduction: Many studies have shown that the functional adaptation of immigrants to high-altitude is closely related to oxygen transport, inflammatory response and autonomic nervous system. However, it remains unclear how human attention changes in response to hypoxia-induced neurophysiological activity during high-altitude exposure. Methods: In the present study, we analyzed the relationship between hypoxic-induced neurophysiological responses and attention networks in 116 immigrants (3,680 m) using an attention network test to simultaneously record electroencephalogram and electrocardiogram in combination with specific routine blood markers. Results: Our analysis revealed that red blood cells exert an indirect influence on the three attention networks, mediated through inflammatory processes and heart rate variability. Discussion: The present study provides experimental evidence for the role of a neuroimmune pathway in determining human attention performance at high- altitude. Our findings have implications for understanding the complex interactions between physiological and neurocognitive processes in immigrants adapting to hypoxic environments.

High angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI) of porcine menisci: a comparison of diffusion tensor imaging and generalized q-sampling imaging.

Background: Diffusion magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) allows for the quantification of water diffusion properties in soft tissues. The goal of this study was to characterize the 3D collagen fiber network in the porcine meniscus using high angular resolution diffusion imaging (HARDI) acquisition with both diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) and generalized q-sampling imaging (GQI). Methods: Porcine menisci (n=7) were scanned ex vivo using a three-dimensional (3D) HARDI spin-echo pulse sequence with an isotropic resolution of 500 µm at 7.0 Tesla. Both DTI and GQI reconstruction techniques were used to quantify the collagen fiber alignment and visualize the complex collagen network of the meniscus. The MRI findings were validated with conventional histology. Results: DTI and GQI exhibited distinct fiber orientation maps in the meniscus using the same HARDI acquisition. We found that crossing fibers were only resolved with GQI, demonstrating the advantage of GQI over DTI to visualize the complex collagen fiber orientation in the meniscus. Furthermore, the MRI findings were consistent with conventional histology. Conclusions: HARDI acquisition with GQI reconstruction more accurately resolves the complex 3D collagen architecture of the meniscus compared to DTI reconstruction. In the future, these technologies have the potential to nondestructively assess both normal and abnormal meniscal structure.

Generation of transgene-free canker-resistant Citrus sinensis cv. Hamlin in the T0 generation through Cas12a/CBE co-editing.

Citrus canker disease affects citrus production. This disease is caused by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (Xcc). Previous studies confirmed that during Xcc infection, PthA4, a transcriptional activator like effector (TALE), is translocated from the pathogen to host plant cells. PthA4 binds to the effector binding elements (EBEs) in the promoter region of canker susceptibility gene LOB1 (EBEPthA4-LOBP) to activate its expression and subsequently cause canker symptoms. Previously, the Cas12a/CBE co-editing method was employed to disrupt EBEPthA4-LOBP of pummelo, which is highly homozygous. However, most commercial citrus cultivars are heterozygous hybrids and more difficult to generate homozygous/biallelic mutants. Here, we employed Cas12a/CBE co-editing method to edit EBEPthA4-LOBP of Hamlin (Citrus sinensis), a commercial heterozygous hybrid citrus cultivar grown worldwide. Binary vector GFP-p1380N-ttLbCas12a:LOBP1-mPBE:ALS2:ALS1 was constructed and shown to be functional via Xcc-facilitated agroinfiltration in Hamlin leaves. This construct allows the selection of transgene-free regenerants via GFP, edits ALS to generate chlorsulfuron-resistant regenerants as a selection marker for genome editing resulting from transient expression of the T-DNA via nCas9-mPBE:ALS2:ALS1, and edits gene(s) of interest (i.e., EBEPthA4-LOBP in this study) through ttLbCas12a, thus creating transgene-free citrus. Totally, 77 plantlets were produced. Among them, 8 plantlets were transgenic plants (#HamGFP1 - #HamGFP8), 4 plantlets were transgene-free (#HamNoGFP1 - #HamNoGFP4), and the rest were wild type. Among 4 transgene-free plantlets, three lines (#HamNoGFP1, #HamNoGFP2 and #HamNoGFP3) contained biallelic mutations in EBEpthA4, and one line (#HamNoGFP4) had homozygous mutations in EBEpthA4. We achieved 5.2% transgene-free homozygous/biallelic mutation efficiency for EBEPthA4-LOBP in C. sinensis cv. Hamlin, compared to 1.9% mutation efficiency for pummelo in a previous study. Importantly, the four transgene-free plantlets and 3 transgenic plantlets that survived were resistant against citrus canker. Taken together, Cas12a/CBE co-editing method has been successfully used to generate transgene-free canker-resistant C. sinensis cv. Hamlin in the T0 generation via biallelic/homozygous editing of EBEpthA4 of the canker susceptibility gene LOB1.

Elucidating the enhanced role of carbonate radical in propranolol degradation by UV/peroxymonosulfate system.

Carbonate radical (CO3•-) has been proved to be an important secondary radical in advanced oxidation processes due to various radical reactions involved HCO3-/CO32-. However, the roles and contributions of CO3•- in organic micropollutant degradation have not been explored systematically. Here, we quantified the impact of CO3•- on the degradation kinetics of propranolol, a representative pollutant in the UV/peroxymonosulfate (PMS) system, by constructing a steady-state radical model. Substantially, the measured values were coincident with the predictive values, and the contributions of CO3•- on propranolol degradation were the water matrix-dependent. Propranolol degradation increased by 130% in UV/PMS system containing 10 mM HCO3-, and the contribution of CO3•- was as high as 58%. Relatively high pH values are beneficial for propranolol degradation in pure water containing HCO3-, and the contributions of CO3•- also enhanced, while an inverse phenomenon was shown for the effects of propranolol concentrations. Dissolved organic matter exhibited significant scavenging effects on HO•, SO4•-, and CO3•-, substantially retarding the elimination process. The developed model successfully predicted oxidation degradation kinetics of propranolol in actual sewage, and CO3•- contribution was up to 93%, which in indicative of the important role of CO3•- in organic micropollutant removal via AOPs treatment.

EnvC Homolog Encoded by Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri Is Necessary for Cell Division and Virulence.

Peptidoglycan hydrolases are enzymes responsible for breaking the peptidoglycan present in the bacterial cell wall, facilitating cell growth, cell division and peptidoglycan turnover. Xanthomonas citri subsp. citri (X. citri), the causal agent of citrus canker, encodes an Escherichia coli M23 peptidase EnvC homolog. EnvC is a LytM factor essential for cleaving the septal peptidoglycan, thereby facilitating the separation of daughter cells. In this study, the investigation focused on EnvC contribution to the virulence and cell separation of X. citri. It was observed that disruption of the X. citri envC gene (ΔenvC) led to a reduction in virulence. Upon inoculation into leaves of Rangpur lime (Citrus limonia Osbeck), the X. citri ΔenvC exhibited a delayed onset of citrus canker symptoms compared with the wild-type X. citri. Mutant complementation restored the wild-type phenotype. Sub-cellular localization confirmed that X. citri EnvC is a periplasmic protein. Moreover, the X. citri ΔenvC mutant exhibited elongated cells, indicating a defect in cell division. These findings support the role of EnvC in the regulation of cell wall organization, cell division, and they clarify the role of this peptidase in X. citri virulence.

Extracellular vesicles-based point-of-care testing for the diagnosis and monitoring of Alzheimer's disease.

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a debilitating condition that affects millions of people worldwide. One promising strategy for detecting and monitoring AD early on is using extracellular vesicles (EVs)-based point-of-care testing; however, diagnosing AD using EVs poses a challenge due to the low abundance of EV-biomarkers. Here, we present a fully integrated organic electrochemical transistor (OECT) that enables high accuracy, speed, and convenience in the detection of EVs from AD patients. We incorporated self-aligned acoustoelectric enhancement of EVs on a chip that rapidly propels, enriches, and specifically binds EVs to the OECT detection area. With our enhancement of pre-concentration, we increased the sensitivity to a limit of detection of 500 EV particles/µL and reduced the required detection time to just two minutes. We also tested the sensor on an AD mouse model to monitor AD progression, examined mouse Aß EVs at different time courses, and compared them with intraneuronal Aß cumulation using MRI. This innovative technology has the potential to diagnose Alzheimer's and other neurodegenerative diseases accurately and quickly, enabling monitoring of disease progression and treatment response.

Z-DNA binding protein 1 orchestrates innate immunity and inflammatory cell death.

Innate immunity is not only the first line of host defense against microbial infections but is also crucial for the host responses against a variety of noxious stimuli. Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1) is a cytosolic nucleic acid sensor that can induce inflammatory cell death in both immune and nonimmune cells upon sensing of incursive virus-derived Z-form nucleic acids and self-nucleic acids via its Zα domain. Mechanistically, aberrantly expressed or activated ZBP1 induced by pathogens or noxious stimuli enables recruitment of TANK binding kinase 1 (TBK1), interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3), receptor-interacting serine/threonine-protein kinase 1 (RIPK1) and RIPK3 to drive type I interferon (IFN-I) responses and activation of nuclear factor kappa B (NF-κB) signaling. Meanwhile, ZBP1 promotes the assembly of ZBP1- and absent in melanoma 2 (AIM2)-PANoptosome, which ultimately triggers PANoptosis through caspase 3-mediated apoptosis, mixed lineage kinase domain like pseudokinase (MLKL)-mediated necroptosis, and gasdermin D (GSDMD)-mediated pyroptosis. In response to damaged mitochondrial DNA, ZBP1 can interact with cyclic GMP-AMP synthase to augment IFN-I responses but inhibits toll like receptor 9-mediated inflammatory responses. This review summarizes the structure and expression pattern of ZBP1, discusses its roles in human diseases through immune-dependent (e.g., the production of IFN-I and pro-inflammatory cytokines) and -independent (e.g., the activation of cell death) functions, and highlights the attractive prospect of manipulating ZBP1 as a promising therapeutic target in diseases.

Dynamics of 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' Growth, Concentrations of Reactive Oxygen Species, and Ion Leakage in Huanglongbing-Positive Sweet Orange.

Citrus Huanglongbing (HLB) caused by 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' (CLas) is the most devastating citrus disease worldwide. CLas induces systemic and chronic reactive oxygen species (ROS) production, which has been suggested to be a primary cause of cell death in phloem tissues and subsequent HLB symptoms. Mitigating oxidative stress caused by CLas using horticultural approaches has been suggested as a useful strategy to reduce HLB damages. To provide information regarding the application timing to mitigate ROS, we investigated monthly dynamics of CLas concentration, CLas-triggered ROS, and phloem cell death in the bark tissues of asymptomatic and symptomatic branches of HLB-positive Hamlin and Valencia sweet orange trees in the field. Healthy branches in the screenhouse were used as controls. CLas concentration exhibited significant variations over the course of the year, with two distinct peaks observed in Florida citrus groves-late spring/early summer and late fall. Within both Hamlin and Valencia asymptomatic tissues, CLas concentration demonstrated a negative correlation with the deviation between the monthly average mean temperature and the optimal temperature for CLas colonization in plants (25.7°C). However, such a correlation was not evident in symptomatic tissues of Hamlin or Valencia sweet oranges. ROS levels were consistently higher in symptomatic or asymptomatic branches than in healthy branches in most months. ROS concentrations were higher in symptomatic branches than in asymptomatic branches in most months. CLas triggered significant increases in ion leakage in most months for asymptomatic and symptomatic branches compared with healthy controls. In asymptomatic branches of Hamlin, a positive correlation was observed between CLas concentration and ROS concentrations, CLas concentration and ion leakage levels, as well as ROS and ion leakage. Intriguingly, such a relationship was not observed in Valencia asymptomatic branches or in the symptomatic branches of Hamlin and Valencia. This study sheds light on the pathogenicity of CLas by providing useful information on the temporal dynamics of ROS production, phloem cell death, and CLas growth, as well as provides useful information in determining the timing for application of antioxidants and antimicrobial agents to control HLB.

Z-nucleic acid sensor ZBP1 in sterile inflammation.

Z-DNA binding protein 1 (ZBP1), a cytosolic nucleic acid sensor for Z-form nucleic acids (Z-NA), can detect both exogenous and endogenous nucleic acids. Upon sensing of self Z-NA or exposure to diverse noxious stimuli, ZBP1 regulates inflammation by activating nuclear factor kappa B and interferon regulating factor 3 signaling pathways. In addition, ZBP1 promotes the assembly of ZBP1 PANoptosome, which initiates caspase 3-mediated apoptosis, mixed lineage kinase domain like pseudokinase (MLKL)-mediated necroptosis, and gasdermin D (GSDMD)-mediated pyroptosis (PANoptosis), leading to the release of various damage-associated molecular patterns. Thereby, ZBP1 is implicated in the development and progression of diverse sterile inflammatory diseases. This review outlines the expression, structure, and function of ZBP1, along with its dual roles in controlling inflammation and cell death to orchestrate innate immunity in sterile inflammation, especially autoimmune diseases, and cancers. ZBP1 has emerged as an attractive therapeutic target for various sterile inflammatory diseases.

FHL2 promotes the aggressiveness of lung adenocarcinoma by inhibiting autophagy via activation of the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway.

BACKGROUND: Increasing evidence indicates that four and a half LIM domains 2 (FHL2) plays a crucial role in the progression of various cancers. However, the biological functions and molecular mechanism of FHL2 in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remain unclear. METHODS: We evaluated the prognostic value of FHL2 in LUAD using public datasets and further confirmed its prognostic value with our clinical data. The biological functions of FHL2 in LUAD were evaluated by in vitro and in vivo experiments. Pathway analysis and rescue experiments were subsequently performed to explore the molecular mechanism by which FHL2 promoted the progression of LUAD. RESULTS: FHL2 was upregulated in LUAD tissues compared to adjacent normal lung tissues, and FHL2 overexpression was correlated with unfavorable outcomes in patients with LUAD. FHL2 knockdown significantly suppressed the proliferation, migration and invasion of LUAD cells, while FHL2 overexpression had the opposite effect. Mechanistically, FHL2 upregulated the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and subsequently inhibited autophagy in LUAD cells. The effects FHL2 on the proliferation, migration and invasion of LUAD cells are dependent on the inhibition of autophagy, as of induction autophagy attenuated the aggressive phenotype induced by FHL2 overexpression. CONCLUSIONS: FHL2 promotes the progression of LUAD by activating the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway and subsequently inhibiting autophagy, which can be exploited as a potential therapeutic target for LUAD.

Coupled strategy based on regulator manipulation and medium optimization empowers the biosynthetic overproduction of lincomycin.

The biosynthesis of bioactive secondary metabolites, specifically antibiotics, is of great scientific and economic importance. The control of antibiotic production typically involves different processes and molecular mechanism. Despite numerous efforts to improve antibiotic yields, joint engineering strategies for combining genetic manipulation with fermentation optimization remain finite. Lincomycin A (Lin-A), a lincosamide antibiotic, is industrially fermented by Streptomyces lincolnensis. Herein, the leucine-responsive regulatory protein (Lrp)-type regulator SLCG_4846 was confirmed to directly inhibit the lincomycin biosynthesis, whereas indirectly controlled the transcription of SLCG_2919, the first reported repressor in S. lincolnensis. Inactivation of SLCG_4846 in the high-yield S. lincolnensis LA219X (LA219XΔ4846) increases the Lin-A production and deletion of SLCG_2919 in LA219XΔ4846 exhibits superimposed yield increment. Given the effect of the double deletion on cellular primary metabolism of S. lincolnensis, Plackett-Burman design, steepest ascent and response surface methodologies were utilized and employed to optimize the seed medium of this double mutant in shake flask, and Lin-A yield using optimal seed medium was significantly increased over the control. Above strategies were performed in a 15-L fermenter. The maximal yield of Lin-A in LA219XΔ4846-2919 reached 6.56 g/L at 216 h, 55.1 % higher than that in LA219X at the parental cultivation (4.23 g/L). This study not only showcases the potential of this strategy to boost lincomycin production, but also could empower the development of high-performance actinomycetes for other antibiotics.
