ABSTRACT
In this study, juvenile crayfish hatched from the same population were cultured in different growing environments: pond (D1), paddy field (D2), and aquaculture barrel (D3), and fed for 60 days. Crayfishes were selected randomly, females and males, 50 tails each from six groups (D1-â, D1-â, D2-â, D2-â, D3-â, D3-â) to measure the following morphological traits: full length (X1), body length (X2), chelicerae length (X3), chelicerae weight (X4), cephalothorax length (X5), cephalothorax width (X6), cephalothorax height (X7), eye spacing (X8), caudal peduncle length (X9), and caudal peduncle weight (X10). We found that the coefficient of variation (CV) of X4 was the largest in each culture mode, and males (28.58%~38.67%) were larger than females (37.76%~66.74%). The CV of X4 of crayfish cultured in D1 and D2 was larger than that of D3. All traits except X8 were positively correlated with body weight (p < 0.05). After pathway analysis, we found that X4, X5, X7, and X10 were significantly correlated with the body weight of D1-â; the equation was YD1-â = -29.803 + 1.249X4 + 0.505X5 + 0.701X7 + 1.483X10 (R2 = 0.947). However, X2, X4, and X6 were significantly correlated with the body weight of D1-â; the equation was YD1-â = -40.881 + 0.39X2 + 0.845X4 + 1.142X6 (R2 = 0.927). In D2-â, X1, X4, X5, and X10 were significantly correlated with body weight; the equation was YD2-â = -12.248 + 0.088X1 + 1.098X4 + 0.275X5 + 0.904X10 (R2 = 0.977). X4 and X5 played a major role in the body weight of D2-â with the equation: YD2-â = -24.871 + 1.177X4 + 0.902X5 (R2 = 0.973). X3 and X10 mainly contributed to the body weight of D3-â with the equation: YD3-â = -22.476 + 0.432X3 + 3.153X10 (R2 = 0.976). X1 and X4 mainly contributed to the body weight of D3-â with the equation: YD3-â = -34.434 + 0.363X1 + 0.669X4 (R2 = 0.918). Comparing the pathway analysis with the gray relation analysis, we could conclude that the traits most correlated with body weight in D1-â were X10 and X7; in D1-â, X6; in D2-â, X10, X1, and X5; in D2-â, X5; in D3-â, X10; and in D3-â, X4 and X1.
ABSTRACT
Microbial fermentations offer the opportunity to produce a wide range of chemicals in a sustainable fashion, but it is important to carefully evaluate the production costs. This can be done on the basis of evaluation of the titer, rate, and yield (TRY) of the fermentation process. Here we describe how the three TRY metrics impact the technoeconomics of a microbial fermentation process, and we illustrate the use of these for evaluation of different processes in the production of two commodity chemicals, 1,3-propanediol (PDO) and ethanol, as well as for the fine chemical penicillin. On the basis of our discussions, we provide some recommendations on how the TRY metrics should be reported when new processes are described.
ABSTRACT
Morels are one of the most highly prized edible and medicinal mushrooms worldwide. Therefore, historically, there has been a large international interest in their cultivation. Numerous ecological, physiological, genetic, taxonomic, and mycochemical studies have been previously developed. At the beginning of this century, China finally achieved artificial cultivation and started a high-scale commercial development in 2012. Due to its international interest, its cultivation scale and area expanded rapidly in this country. However, along with the massive industrial scale, a number of challenges, including the maintenance of steady economic profits, arise. In order to contribute to the solution of these challenges, formal research studying selection, species recognition, strain aging, mating type structure, life cycle, nutrient metabolism, growth and development, and multi-omics has recently been boosted. This paper focuses on discussing current morel cultivation technologies, the industrial status of cultivation in China, and the relevance of basic biological research, including, e.g., the study of strain characteristics, species breeding, mating type structure, and microbial interactions. The main challenges related to the morel cultivation industry on a large scale are also analyzed. It is expected that this review will promote a steady global development of the morel industry based on permanent and robust basic scientific knowledge.
ABSTRACT
In order to study the effect of both greenhouse and forest cultivating environments on Stropharia rugosoannulata, its volatile aroma compounds were measured by a headspace solid phase micro extractions-gas chromatograph-mass spectrometer (SPME-GC-MS). The optimal adsorption temperature was 75 °C and the optimal adsorption time was 40 min. A total of 36 volatile aroma compounds were identified by GC-MS, including 8 aldehydes, 2 ketones, 4 alcohols, 15 alkenes, and 4 alkanes. Hexanal, 3-Octanone, 2-Undecanone, (E)-Nerolidol, and (Z)-ß-Farnesene made great aromatic contributions. Among them, Hexanal, 3-Octanone, 2-Undecanone were the key aroma compounds for which odor activity values (OAVs) were more than 1. (E)-Nerolidol showed odor modification in the forest samples and showed a key aroma effect in greenhouse samples. (Z)-ß-Farnesene showed odor modification in greenhouse samples. 3-Octanone was the largest contributing compound for which the OAV was more than 60. The total content of volatile aroma compounds first increased and then decreased with growth time; it reached the highest level at 48 h: 2203.7 ± 115.2 µg/kg for the forest environment and 4516.6 ± 228.5 µg/kg for the greenhouse environment. The aroma was the most abundant at this time. All samples opened their umbrella at 84 h and become inedible. Principal component analysis (PCA), hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA), and orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis (OPLS-DA) were combined to analyze the aroma difference of S. rugosoannulata under two cultivation modes. PCA and HCA could effectively distinguish the aroma difference in different growth stages. Under different culturing methods, the aroma substances and their changes were different. The samples were divided into two groups for forest cultivation, while the samples were divided into three groups for greenhouse cultivation. At the end of growth, the aroma of S. rugosoannulata with the two cultivation modes was very similar. OPLS-DA clearly distinguished the differences between the two cultivation methods; 17 key aroma difference factors with variable importance projection (VIP) > 1 were obtained from SPLS-DA analysis.
ABSTRACT
This study aims to develop the pre-column derivatization high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) method for the determination of 16 kinds of amino acids in Eucommia ulmoides leaves, and compare the content of amino acids in the leaves harvested at different time and under leaf-oriented cultivation mode(LCM) and arbor forest mode(AFM). The HPLC conditions are as below: phenyl isothiocyanate(PITC) as pre-column derivatization agent, Agilent ZORBAX C_(18 )column(4.6 mm×250 mm, 5 µm), mobile phase A of acetonitrile-water(80â¶20), mobile phase B of 0.1 mol·L~(-1) sodium acetate solution-acetonitrile(94â¶6), gradient elution, flow rate of 1.0 mL·min~(-1), injection volume of 5 µL, column temperature of 40 â, and detection wavelength of 254 nm. The HPLC profile indicated well separation of 16 kinds of amino acids and the amino acid content in E. ulmoides leaves was up to 16.26%. In addition, the amino acid content in leaves of E. ulmoides under LCM was higher than under AFM. The amino acid content varied with the harvesting time. Through orthogonal partial least squares discriminant analysis, the amino acids of E. ulmoides under LCM and AFM were compared, which can distinguish the leaves under LCM from those under AFM. Principal component analysis was applied to comprehensively score the amino acids of E. ulmoides leaves. The results showed that the score of leaves under LCM was higher than that under AFM. Nutritional evaluation results indicated that the proteins in E. ulmoides leaves belonged to high-quality vegetable proteins. The established method for the determination of amino acid content is reliable. With the amino acid content as index, the leaf quality of E. ulmoides under LCM is better than that under AFM. This study lays a theoretical basis for the promotion of LCM for E. ulmoides and the development of medicinal and edible products from E. ulmoides leaves.

Microbial lipids have recently attracted attention as an intriguing alternative for the biodiesel and oleochemical industries to achieve sustainable energy generation. However, large-scale lipid production remains limited due to the high processing costs. As multiple variables affect lipid synthesis, an up-to-date overview that will benefit researchers studying microbial lipids is necessary. In this review, the most studied keywords from bibliometric studies are first reviewed. Based on the results, the hot topics in the field were identified to be associated with microbiology studies that aim to enhance lipid synthesis and reduce production costs, focusing on the biological and metabolic engineering involved. The research updates and tendencies of microbial lipids were then analyzed in depth. In particular, feedstock and associated microbes, as well as feedstock and corresponding products, were analyzed in detail. Strategies for lipid biomass enhancement were also discussed, including feedstock adoption, value-added product synthesis, selection of oleaginous microbes, cultivation mode optimization, and metabolic engineering strategies. Finally, the environmental implications of microbial lipid production and possible research directions were presented.

Enhancing the lipid production of oleaginous yeasts is conducive to cutting the cost of feedstock for biodiesel. To increase the lipid productivity of Rhodotorula sp. U13N3, genes involving lipid degradation were knocked out and fermentation conditions were investigated. Results of transcription analysis demonstrated that genes encoding the ATG15-like lipase (ATG15) and peroxisomal acyl-CoA oxidase (ACOX2) were upregulated significantly at the lipogenesis stage. When ATG15 and ACOX2 were knocked out separately from the genome by the CRISPR/Cas9 method, both ΔATG15 and ΔACOX2 mutants showed better lipid production ability than the parent strain. Flow cytometry and confocal microscopic analyses indicated that simultaneous the knockout of ATG15 and ACOX2 did not impact the cell viability, whereas the lipid production was enhanced markedly as the lipid yield increased by 67.03% in shake flasks. Afterward, the ΔATG15ΔACOX2 transformant (TO2) was cultivated in shake flasks in the fed-batch mode; the highest biomass and lipid yield reached 45.76 g/L and 27.14 g/L at 216 h, respectively. Better performance was achieved when TO2 was cultivated in the 1-L bioreactor. At the end of fermentation (180 h), lipid content, yield, yield coefficient, and productivity reached 65.53%, 27.35 g/L, 0.277 g/g glycerol, and 0.152 g/L/h, respectively. These values were at the high level in comparison with Rhodotorula strains cultivated in glycerol media. Besides, fermentation modes did not affect the fatty acid composition of TO2 significantly. In conclusion, blocking the lipid degradation was an applicable strategy to increase the lipid production of Rhodotorula strains without compromising their cell viability. KEY POINTS: ⢠ATG15-like lipase and acyl-CoA oxidase (ACOX2) participated in lipid degradation. ⢠Knockout of ATG15 and ACOX2 increased lipid productivity, and lipid yield coefficient. ⢠Cell viability maintained at high level in the knockout mutants during fermentation.

BACKGROUND: The orchid growth and development often associate with microbes. However, the interaction between plant performance and microbial communities within and surrounding plants is less understood. Dendrobium catenatum, which used to be an endangered orchid species, has become a billion dollar industry in China. Simulated natural cultivation modes, such as living tree epiphytic (LT) and cliff epiphytic (CE) cultivations, improve the production or quality of D. catenatum and contribute to the development of D. catenatum industry. In a previous study, morphological characteristics, anatomical structure, and main bioactive components (polysaccharides and ethanol-soluble extractives) of D. catenatum grown under LT and CE significantly differed from a facility cultivation mode, pot (PO) cultivation, were observed. Whether cultivation mode affects bacterial and fungal communities of D. catenatum, thereby affecting the chemical quality of this plant, need to be explored. RESULTS: Both three plant organs (leaf, stem, and root) and cultivating substrates obtained under three cultivation modes: living tree epiphytic (LT), cliff epiphytic (CE), and pot (PO) cultivation were examined by adopting high-throughput sequencing methods. Subsequently, bacterial and fungal correlations with D. catenatum main chemical components, stem polysaccharides and ethanol-soluble extractives and leaf phenols and flavonoids, were elucidated. The results showed that microbial communities of the plants and substrates are both influenced by the cultivation mode. However, the plants and their cultivating substrates exhibited different patterns of bacterial and fungal composition, with clearly distinguished dominant bacterial groups, but shared dominance among fungal groups. Bacteria and fungi differed in abundance, diversity, and community structure, depending on the cultivation environment and plant organ. Both bacterial and fungal communities were affected by cultivation mode and plant organ. In both plants and substrates, PO bacterial and fungal community structure differed significantly from those of LT and CE modes. Bacterial and fungal community structure differed significantly between roots and the other two plant organs examined (stems and leaves). Several bacteria and fungi were positively correlated with main chemical components in D. catenatum. CONCLUSIONS: The findings indicate that microbial communities of the plants and substrates were both influenced by the cultivation mode and plant organ, and some of them were positively correlated with main chemical components in D. catenatum. The research would enhance our understanding of interactions between Dendrobium and the microbial environment, and to provide a theoretical basis for the development of improved D. catenatum cultivation methods.

Ecological shading fueled by maize intercropping in tea plantations can improve tea quality and flavor, and efficiently control the population occurrence of main insect pests. In this study, tea plants were intercropped with maize in two planting directions from east to west (i.e., south shading (SS)) and from north to south (i.e., east shading (ES) and west shading (WS)) to form ecological shading, and the effects on tea quality, and the population occurrence and community diversity of insect pests and soil microbes were studied. When compared with the non-shading control, the tea foliar nutrition contents of free fatty acids have been significantly affected by the ecological shading. SS, ES, and WS all significantly increased the foliar content of theanine and caffeine and the catechin quality index in the leaves of tea plants, simultaneously significantly reducing the foliar content of total polyphenols and the phenol/ammonia ratio. Moreover, ES and WS both significantly reduced the population occurrences of Empoasca onukii and Trialeurodes vaporariorum. Ecological shading significantly affected the composition of soil microbial communities in tea plantations, in which WS significantly reduced the diversity of soil microorganisms.
ABSTRACT
American ginseng (Panax quinquefolium L.) is a perennial herbaceous plant widely cultivated in China, Korea, the United States, and Japan due to its multifunctional properties. In northwest China, transplanting after 2-3 years has become the main mode of artificial cultivation of American ginseng. However, the effects of the cultivation process on the chemical properties of the soil and bacterial community remain poorly understood. Hence, in the present study, high-throughput sequencing and soil chemical analyses were applied to investigate the differences between bacterial communities and nutrition driver factors in the soil during the cultivation of American ginseng. The responses of soil nutrition in different ecological niches were also determined with the results indicating that the cultivation of American ginseng significantly increased the soluble nutrients in the soil. Moreover, the bacterial diversity fluctuated with cultivation years, and 4-year-old ginseng roots had low bacterial diversity and evenness. In the first two years of cultivation, the bacterial community was more sensitive to soil nutrition compared to the last two years. Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, Gemmatimonadetes, Acidobacteria, Firmicutes, and Bacteroidetes dominated the bacterial community regardless of the cultivation year and ecological niche. With the increase of cultivation years, the assembly of bacterial communities changed from stochastic to deterministic processes. The high abundance of Sphingobium, Novosphingobium, and Rhizorhabdus enriched in 4-years-old ginseng roots was mainly associated with variations in the available potassium (AK), total phosphorus (TP), total potassium (TK), and organic matter (OM).

ABSTRACT
The composition of microbial communities can directly affect fruit quality, health status, and storability. The present study characterized the epiphytes and endophytes of "Hongyang" and "Cuiyu" kiwifruit at harvest under grown under open-field (OF) and rain-shelter (RS) cultivation systems. Disease incidence in kiwifruit was significantly lower (p < 0.05) under the RS system than it was under the OF system. High-throughput sequencing [16S V3-V4 ribosomal region and the fungal internal transcribed spacer (ITS2)] was conducted to compare the composition of the epiphytic and endophytic microbial community of kiwifruit under the two cultivation systems. Results indicated that the abundance of Actinobacteria, Bacteroidetes, Enterobacteriales, Acetobacterales, Sphingomonas, Pseudomonas, and Sphingobacterium was higher under the RS system, relative to the OF system, while the abundance of Capnodiales, Hypocreales, Vishniacozyma, and Plectosphaerella was also higher under the RS system. Some of these bacterial and fungal taxa have been reported to as act as biocontrol agents and reduce disease incidence. Notably, the α-diversity of the epiphytic bacterial and fungal communities on kiwifruit was higher under RS cultivation. In summary, RS cultivation reduced natural disease incidence in kiwifruit, which may be partially attributed to differences in the structure and composition of the microbial community present in and on kiwifruit.
ABSTRACT
In this study, we increased ß-glucan production from brewer's yeast, Saccharomyces carlsbergensis RU01, by using tannic acid. High-pressure freezing and transmission electron microscopy (HPF-TEM) revealed that the yeast cell wall obtained from yeast malt (YM) medium supplemented with 0.1% w/v tannic acid was thicker than that of yeast cultured in YM medium alone. The production of ß-glucan from S. carlsbergensis RU01 was optimized in 3% w/v molasses and 0.1% w/v diammonium sulfate (MDS) medium supplemented with 0.1% w/v tannic acid. The results showed that MDS medium supplemented with 0.1% w/v tannic acid significantly increased the dry cell weight (DCW), and the ß-glucan production was 0.28±0.01% w/v and 11.99±0.04% w/w. Tannic acid enhanced the ß-glucan content by up to 42.23%. ß-Glucan production in the stirred tank reactor (STR) was 1.4-fold higher than that in the shake flask (SF) culture. Analysis of the ß-glucan composition by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy showed that the ß-glucan of S. carlsbergensis RU01 cultured in MDS medium supplemented with 0.1% w/v tannic acid had a higher proportion of polysaccharide than that of the control. In addition, ß-glucans from brewer's yeast can be used as prebiotic and functional foods for human health and in animal feed.

Methods 180 clinical interns in de-partment of urology were selected as the subjects, which were randomly divided into experimental group and control group (90 clinical interns in each group). The clinical teaching effects of the two groups were compared by adopting the new clinical teaching methods and the traditional ones. Evaluation indexes con-sists of theoretical scores, operational skills and personal comprehensive quality scores. Results The results of the above three tests in the experimental group were all superior to those of the control group (P<0.05). The satisfaction of the experimental group in teaching method, teaching effect and teacher evaluation was obviously better than that in the control group (P<0.05). Conclusion The implementation of the new clinical teaching method based on problem leading-in is not only beneficial to improve the knowledge skills, com-prehensive quality and teaching satisfaction of clinical medical students, but also to the training of clinicians with high quality. The new clinical teaching method is of great significance for reforming the mode of clini-cal medical talents.
ABSTRACT
The traditional cultivation ways of socialist core values among medical students existed many short-comings in the aspects of attraction, innovation, influence and so on. The medical students' basic attitude to social-ist core value was positive, but there were some characteristics of lack of initiative, lack of practice force, lack of awareness and so on. The construction of new cultivation ways need the combination of the traditional education and the emerging Internet media, especially mobile Internet terminals and thought, construct the education network of the combination of the school, family and society, and make medical students' socialist core values internalized in the mind and externalized in the practice truly.
ABSTRACT
Global rice production will be increasingly challenged by providing healthy food for a growing population at minimal environmental cost. In this study, a 2-year field experiment was conducted to investigate the effects of a novel rice cultivation mode (screenhouse cultivation, SHC) and organic material (OM) incorporation (wheat straw and wheat straw-based biogas residue) on methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2O) emissions and rice yields. In addition, the environmental factors and soil properties were also determined. Relative to the traditional open-field cultivation (OFC), SHC decreased the CH4 and N2O emissions by 6.58-18.73 and 2.51-21.35%, respectively, and the global warming potential (GWP) was reduced by 6.49-18.65%. This trend was mainly because of lower soil temperature and higher soil redox potential in SHC. Although the rice grain yield for SHC were reduced by 2.51-4.98% compared to the OFC, the CH4 emissions and GWP per unit of grain yield (yield-scaled CH4 emissions and GWP) under SHC were declined. Compared to use of inorganic fertilizer only (IN), combining inorganic fertilizer with wheat straw (WS) or wheat straw-based biogas residue (BR) improved rice grain yield by 2.12-4.10 and 4.68-5.89%, respectively. However, OM incorporation enhanced CH4 emissions and GWP, leading to higher yield-scaled CH4 emissions and GWP in WS treatment. Due to rice yield that is relatively high, there was no obvious effect of BR treatment on them. These findings suggest that apparent environmental benefit can be realized by applying SHC and fermenting straw aerobically before its incorporation.
