Honey bee colonies managed for agricultural pollination are highly dependent on human inputs, especially for disease control and supplemental nutrition. Hives are routinely fed artificial “pollen substitute” diets to compensate for insufficient nutritional forage in the environment. The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of different artificial diets in a northern California, US com. beekeeping operation from August through Feb. This time period represents an extended forage dearth when supplemental nutrition is used to stimulate late winter colony growth prior to almond pollination in the early spring. A total of 144 honey bee colonies were divided into 8 feeding groups that were replicated at three apiary sites. Feeding groups received com. diets (Global, Ultra Bee, Bulk Soft, MegaBee, AP23, Healthy Bees), a beekeeper-formulated diet (Homebrew), or a sugar neg. control. Diets were analyzed for macronutrient and amino acid content then evaluated with respect to honey bee colony population size, average bee weight, nutrition-related gene expression, gut microbiota abundance, and pathogen levels. Replicated at three apiary sites, two pollen-containing diets (Global and Homebrew) produced the largest colonies and the heaviest bees per colony. Two diets (Bulk Soft and AP23) that did not contain pollen led to significantly larger colonies than a sugar neg. control diet. Diet macronutrient content was not correlated with colony size or health biomarkers. The sum of dietary essential amino acid deficiencies relative to leucine content were correlated with average bee weight in Nov. and colony size used for almond pollination in Feb. Nutrition-related gene expression, gut microbiota, and pathogen levels were influenced by apiary site, which overrode some diet effects. Regarding microbiota, diet had a significant impact on the abundance of Bifidobacterium and Gilliamella and trended towards effects on other prominent bee gut taxa. Multiple colony and individual bee measures are necessary to test diet efficacy since honey bee nutritional responses are complex to evaluate. Balancing essential amino acid content relative to leucine instead of tryptophan may improve diet protein efficiency ratios. Optimization of bee diets could improve feed sustainability and agricultural pollination efficiency by supporting larger, healthier honey bee colonies.

Hua, Ying-peng published the artcileCombined morpho-physiological, ionomic and transcriptomic analyses reveal adaptive responses of allohexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) to iron deficiency, Recommanded Product: (S)-2-Amino-4-(methylthio)butanoic acid, the publication is BMC Plant Biology (2022), 22(1), 234, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Plants worldwide are often stressed by low Fe availability around the world, especially in aerobic soils. Therefore, the plant growth, seed yield, and quality of crop species are severely inhibited under Fe deficiency. Fe metabolism in plants is controlled by a series of complex transport, storage, and regulatory mechanisms in cells. Allohexaploid wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a staple upland crop species that is highly sensitive to low Fe stresses. Although some studies have been previously conducted on the responses of wheat plants to Fe deficiency, the key mechanisms underlying adaptive responses are still unclear in wheat due to its large and complex genome. Transmission electron microscopy showed that the chloroplast structure was severely damaged under Fe deficiency. Paraffin sectioning revealed that the division rates of meristematic cells were reduced, and the sizes of elongated cells were diminished. ICP-MS-assisted ionmics anal. showed that low-Fe stress significantly limited the absorption of nutrients, including N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, and B nutrients. High-throughput transcriptome sequencing identified 378 and 2,619 genome-wide differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified in the shoots and roots between high-Fe and low-Fe conditions, resp. These DEGs were mainly involved in the Fe chelator biosynthesis, ion transport, photosynthesis, amino acid metabolism, and protein synthesis. Gene coexpression network diagrams indicated that TaIRT1b-4A, TaNAS2-6D, TaNAS1a-6A, TaNAS1-6B, and TaNAAT1b-1D might function as key regulators in the adaptive responses of wheat plants to Fe deficiency. These results might help us fully understand the morpho-physiol. and mol. responses of wheat plants to low-Fe stress, and provide elite genetic resources for the genetic modification of efficient Fe use.

Ma, Qiuyue published the artcileAssembly and comparative analysis of the first complete mitochondrial genome of Acer truncatum Bunge: a woody oil-tree species producing nervonic acid, Product Details of C5H11NO2S, the publication is BMC Plant Biology (2022), 22(1), 29, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Acer truncatum (purpleblow maple) is a woody tree species that produces seeds with high levels of valuable fatty acids (especially nervonic acid). The species is admired as a landscape plant with high developmental prospects and scientific research value. The A. truncatum chloroplast genome has recently been reported; however, the mitochondrial genome (mitogenome) is still unexplored. We characterized the A. truncatum mitogenome, which was assembled using reads from PacBio and Illumina sequencing platforms, performed a comparative anal. against different species of Acer. The circular mitogenome of A. truncatum has a length of 791,052 bp, with a base composition of 27.11% A, 27.21% T, 22.79% G, and 22.89% C. The A. truncatum mitogenome contains 62 genes, including 35 protein-coding genes, 23 tRNA genes and 4 rRNA genes. We also examined codon usage, sequence repeats, RNA editing and selective pressure in the A. truncatum mitogenome. To determine the evolutionary and taxonomic status of A. truncatum, we conducted a phylogenetic anal. based on the mitogenomes of A. truncatum and 25 other taxa. In addition, the gene migration from chloroplast and nuclear genomes to the mitogenome were analyzed. Finally, we developed a novel NAD1 intron indel marker for distinguishing several Acer species. In this study, we assembled and annotated the mitogenome of A. truncatum, a woody oil-tree species producing nervonic acid. The results of our analyses provide comprehensive information on the A. truncatum mitogenome, which would facilitate evolutionary research and mol. barcoding in Acer.

Hahn, Dongyup published the artcileDetermination of sequence and absolute configuration of peptide amino acids by HPLC-MS/CD-based detection of liberated N-terminus phenylthiohydantoin amino acids, Recommanded Product: (S)-2-Amino-4-(methylthio)butanoic acid, the publication is Scientific Reports (2022), 12(1), 10285, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

We report a method for the simultaneous determination of the sequence and absolute configuration of peptide amino acids using a combination of Edman degradation and HPLC-MS/CD. Phenylthiohydantoin (PTH) derivatives of 20 pairs of standard D- and L-amino acids were synthesized by the Edman reaction. The CD spectra of the derivatives revealed that each pair of the PTH derivatives exhibited the absorption with opposite signs at around 270 nm. These standard PTH derivatives showed well-resolved resolution without interference from byproducts in the ion chromatogram and clear pos./neg. CD absorptions when subjected on a reversed phase HPLC-MS system coupled with a CD-2095 HPLC detector. This method was applied for the detection of a synthetic pentapeptide and a natural depsipeptide (halicylindramide C). The sequence and configuration of the pentapeptide and up to eight residues of halicylindramide C were successfully analyzed by this method. The amino acid configuration of the pentapeptide was also determined successfully by subjecting its acid hydrolyzates to the Edman reaction followed by HPLC-MS/CD.

Li, Yinruizhi published the artcileTranscriptome profiling revealed candidate genes, pathways and transcription factors related to nitrogen utilization and excessive nitrogen stress in perennial ryegrass, COA of Formula: C5H11NO2S, the publication is Scientific Reports (2022), 12(1), 3353, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.), a high-quality forage grass, is a good nutrient source for herbivorous livestock. However, improving nitrogen use efficiency and avoiding nitrate toxicity caused by excessive nitrogen are continual challenges in ryegrass production The mol. mechanism underlying the response of ryegrass to nitrogen, especially excessive nitrogen, remains unclear. In this study, the transcriptomic changes under different nitrogen levels were investigated in perennial ryegrass by high-throughput next-generation RNA sequencing. Phenotypic characterization showed that treatment with half of the standard N concentration (N0.5) led to a better growth state than the other three treatments. The treatments with the standard N concentration (N1) and treatments with ten times higher than the standard N concentration (N10) contained excessive nitrogen, which placed stress on plant growth. Anal. of differentially expressed genes indicated that 345 and 104 genes are involved in the regulation of nitrogen utilization and excessive nitrogen stress, resp. KEGG enrichment anal. suggested that “photosynthesis-antenna proteins” may respond pos. to appropriate nitrogen conditions, whereas “steroid biosynthesis”, “carotenoid biosynthesis” and “C5-branched dibasic acid metabolism” were identified as the top significantly enriched pathways in response to excessive nitrogen. Addnl., 21 transcription factors (TFs) related to nitrogen utilization were classified into 10 families, especially the AP2-EREBP and MYB TF families. Four TFs related to excessive nitrogen stress were identified, including LOBs, NACs, AP2-EREBPs and HBs. The expression patterns of these selected genes were also analyzed. These results provide new insight into the regulatory mechanism of ryegrass in response to nitrogen utilization and excessive nitrogen stress.

Wang, Xiaofan published the artcileDonor age and body weight determine the effects of fecal microbiota transplantation on growth performance, and fecal microbiota development in recipient pigs, COA of Formula: C5H11NO2S, the publication is Journal of Animal Science and Biotechnology (2022), 13(1), 49, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

The application of fecal microbiota transplantation (FMT) to improve swine growth performance has been sporadically studied. Most of these studies used a single microbiota source and thus the effect of donor characteristics on recipient pigs¡ä fecal microbiota development and growth performance is largely unknown. In this study, we collected feces from six donors with heavy (H) or light (L) body weight and different ages (d 42, nursery; d 96, growing; and d 170, finisher) to evaluate their effects on the growth performance and fecal microbiota development of recipient pigs. Generally, recipients that received two doses of FMT from nursery and finisher stages donor at weaning (21 ¡À 2 days of age) inherited the donor¡äs growth pattern, while the pigs gavaged with grower stage material exerted a numerically greater weight gain than the control pigs regardless of donor BW. FMT from heavier donors (NH, GH, and FH) led to the recipients to have numerically increased growth compared to their lighter counterparts (NL, GL, and FL, resp.) throughout the growing and most finishing stages. This benefit could be attributed to the enrichment of ASV25 Faecalibacterium, ASV61 Faecalibacterium, ASV438 Coriobacteriaceae_unclassified, ASV144 Bulleidia, and ASV129 Oribacterium and decrease of ASV13 Escherichia during nursery stage. Fecal microbiota transplantation from growing and finishing donors influenced the microbial community significantly in recipient pigs during the nursery stage. FMT of older donors¡ä gut microbiota expedited recipients¡ä microbiota maturity on d 35 and 49, indicated by increased estimated microbiota ages. The age-associated bacterial taxa included ASV206 Ruminococcaceae, ASV211 Butyrivibrio, ASV416 Bacteroides, ASV2 Streptococcus, and ASV291 Veillonellaceae. The body weight differences between GL and GH pigs on d 104 were associated with the increased synthesis of the essential amino acid, lysine and methionine, mixed acid fermentation, expedited glycolysis, and sucrose/galactose degradation Overall, our study provided insights into how donor age and body weight affect FMT outcomes regarding growth performance, microbiota community shifts, and lower GI tract metabolic potentials. This study also provided guidance to select qualified donors for future fecal microbiota transplantation.

Guercio, Angelica M. published the artcileStructural and functional analyses explain Pea KAI2 receptor diversity and reveal stereoselective catalysis during signal perception, Computed Properties of 63-68-3, the publication is Communications Biology (2022), 5(1), 126, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

KAI2 proteins are plant ¦Á/¦Â hydrolase receptors which perceive smoke-derived butenolide signals and endogenous, yet unidentified KAI2-ligands (KLs). The number of functional KAI2 receptors varies among species and KAI2 gene duplication and sub-functionalization likely plays an adaptative role by altering specificity towards different KLs. Legumes represent one of the largest families of flowering plants and contain many agronomic crops. Prior to their diversification, KAI2 underwent duplication resulting in KAI2A and KAI2B. Here we demonstrate that Pisum sativum KAI2A and KAI2B are active receptors and enzymes with divergent ligand stereoselectivity. KAI2B has a higher affinity for and hydrolyzes a broader range of substrates including strigolactone-like stereoisomers. We determine the crystal structures of PsKAI2B in apo and butenolide-bound states. The biochem., structural, and mass spectra analyses of KAI2s reveal a transient intermediate on the catalytic serine and a stable adduct on the catalytic histidine, confirming its role as a bona fide enzyme. Our work uncovers the stereoselectivity of ligand perception and catalysis by diverged KAI2 receptors and proposes adaptive sensitivity to KAR/KL and strigolactones by KAI2B.

Jiang, Hui published the artcileComparative and phylogenetic analyses of six Kenya Polystachya (Orchidaceae) species based on complete chloroplast genome sequences, Computed Properties of 63-68-3, the publication is BMC Plant Biology (2022), 22(1), 177, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Polystachya Hook. is a large pantropical orchid genus (c. 240 species) distributed in Africa, southern Asia and the Americas, with the center of diversity in Africa. Previous studies on species of this genus have not obtained the complete chloroplast genomes, structures and variations. Addnl., the phylogenetic position of the genus in the Orchidaceae is still controversial and uncertain. Therefore, in this study, we sequenced the complete plastomes of six Kenya Polystachya species based on genome skimming, subjected them to comparative genomic anal., and reconstructed the phylogenetic relationships with other Orchidaceae species. The results exhibited that the chloroplast genomes had a typical quadripartite structure with conserved genome arrangement and moderate divergence. The plastomes of the six Polystachya species ranged from 145,484 bp to 149,274 bp in length and had an almost similar GC content of 36.9-37.0%. Gene annotation revealed 106-109 single-copy genes. In addition, 19 genes are duplicated in the inverted regions, and 16 genes each possessd one or more introns. Although no large structural variations were observed among the Polystachya plastomes, about 1 kb inversion was found in Polystachya modesta and all 11 ndh genes in the Polystachya plastomes were lost or pseudogenized. Comparative anal. of the overall sequence identity among six complete chloroplast genomes confirmed that for both coding and non-coding regions in Polystachya, SC regions exhibit higher sequence variation than IRs. Furthermore, there were various amplifications in the IR regions among the six Polystachya species. Most of the protein-coding genes of these species had a high degree of codon preference. We screened out SSRs and found seven relatively highly variable loci. Moreover, 13 genes were discovered with significant pos. selection. Phylogenetic anal. showed that the six Polystachya species formed a monophyletic clade and were more closely related to the tribe Vandeae. Phylogenetic relationships of the family Orchidaceae inferred from the 85 chloroplast genome sequences were generally consistent with previous studies and robust. Our study is the initial report of the complete chloroplast genomes of the six Polystachya species, elucidates the structural characteristics of the chloroplast genome of Polystachya, and filters out highly variable sequences that can contribute to the development of DNA markers for use in the study of genetic variability and evolutionary studies in Polystachya. In addition, the phylogenetic results strongly support that the genus of Polystachya is a part of the tribe Vandeae.

Whyte-Fagundes, Paige published the artcilePanx1 channels promote both anti- and pro-seizure-like activities in the zebrafish via p2rx7 receptors and ATP signaling, Application of (S)-2-Amino-4-(methylthio)butanoic acid, the publication is Communications Biology (2022), 5(1), 472, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

The mol. mechanisms of excitation/inhibition imbalances promoting seizure generation in epilepsy patients are not fully understood. Evidence suggests that Pannexin1 (Panx1), an ATP release channel, modulates the excitability of the brain. In this report, we performed electrophysiol., behavioral, and mol. phenotyping experiments on zebrafish larvae bearing genetic or pharmacol. knockouts of Panx1a and Panx1b channels, each homologous to human PANX1. When Panx1a function is lost, or both channels are under pharmacol. blockade, seizures with ictal-like events and seizure-like locomotion are reduced in the presence of pentylenetetrazol. Transcriptome profiling by RNA-seq demonstrates a spectrum of distinct metabolic and cell signaling states which correlate with the loss of Panx1a. Furthermore, the pro- and anticonvulsant activities of both Panx1 channels affect ATP release and involve the purinergic receptor P2rx7. Our findings suggest a subfunctionalization of Panx1 enabling dual roles in seizures, providing a unique and comprehensive perspective to understanding seizure mechanisms in the context of this channel.

Wu, Yongjun published the artcileMulti-omics analyses of the mechanism for the formation of soy sauce-like and soybean flavor in Bacillus subtilis BJ3-2, Computed Properties of 63-68-3, the publication is BMC Microbiology (2022), 22(1), 142, database is CAplus and MEDLINE.

Although soy sauce-like flavor and soybean flavor are two key contributors to the flavor of fermented foods, the key compounds of soy sauce-like flavor and soybean flavor and production mechanisms are still poorly understood and need further investigation. In the present study, we found that the Bacillus subtilis (B. subtilis) BJ3-2 strain has various metabolic properties at different temperatures, and the strain cultured at 37¡ãC increased the soybean flavor (a special flavor of ammonia-containing smelly distinct from natto) compared with culturing at 45¡ãC and 53¡ãC. Interestingly, the strain cultured at 45¡ãC and 53¡ãC had a higher soy sauce-like flavor than that in 37¡ãC. Moreover, a comparative transcriptome anal. of the strain cultured at 37¡ãC, 45¡ãC, and 53¡ãC showed transcriptional changes related to secondary metabolites and ABC transporters, which is critical for the amino acid transport and metabolism in B. subtilis. Meanwhile, proteomics and metabolomics profiling showed a marked change in amino acids transport and metabolism In addition, the metabolic anal. revealed a significant metabolic difference (including sulfur metabolism, glutathione metabolism, nicotinate and nicotinamide metabolism, cysteine and methionine metabolism, and pyrimidine metabolism) in the strain cultured at 45¡ãC and 53¡ãC compared to 37¡ãC. To sum, this study used the multi-omics profiling tool to investigate the fermentative strains B. subtilis BJ3-2, thus providing a deeper insight into the mechanism of the formation of soy sauce-like flavor and soybean flavor compounds
