<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[Volatile terpenes are important aroma active compounds in flowers and fruits of plant. Diversities of terpenes are usually determined by type and function of terpene synthase in different species. <i>Osmanthus fragrans</i> is an important fragrant plant, in which terpenes are the important components of floral scent. But there are few studies on terpene synthase in <i>O. fragrans</i>. To reveal the biosynthesis mechanism of terpenes in<i> O. fragrans,</i> we predicted the physicochemical properties, subcellular localization and structure of four TPS proteins by bioinformatics, and expressed them in prokaryotic expression system. Finally, the function of soluble TPS4 recombinant protein was analyzed by enzyme reaction <i>in vitro</i>. The results were as follows:(1)The physicochemical properties of the four TPS proteins had relatively little difference. Only TPS4 protein locating in other targets without signal peptide had low proportional extended strand and no extended strand near amidogen terminal.(2)All of the four TPS proteins were successfully expressed in prokaryotic system, but only TPS4 obtained soluble recombinant protein.(3)The purified TPS4 recombinant protein was reacted with GPP, NDP and FPP respectively, and only one product(trans-β-ocimene, β-phellandrene and α-farnesene)was detected. The results provide reference for functional analysis of floral scent related gene at protein level in <i>O. fragrans</i> and for revealing the molecular mechanism of terpenes biosynthesis in plant.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[Cyclophilin is a multi-gene family that plays an important role in plant biology. A cyclophilin gene in <i>Cypripedium macranthum</i> named as <i>CmCyP </i>(GenBank Accession No. MH411125), was successfully cloned by RT-PCR, and then bioinformatics analysis were carried out. The results were as follows: CmCyP protein was predicted as a stable hydrophilic protein composed of 174 amino acids, without signal peptide and transmembrane domain. Its relative molecular mass was approximately 18 kD, and a predicated isoelectric point(pI)was 8.73.Phosphorylation and glycosylation site prediction analysis revealed that eighteen potential phosphorylation sites and two potential glycosylation sites were found in CmCyP protein. Protein domain prediction revealed that CmCyP contained a highly conserved peptide prolyl cis-trans isomerase domain, belonging to single domain of cyclophilin. The secondary structure of CmCyP was abundant in random coils(70)and extension chains(56), while was less in α-helices(23)and β-turns(25). Phylogenetic tree analysis indicates that the genetic relationship of CmCyP in <i>C. macranthum</i> with CyPs from <i>Dendrobium catenatum</i> and Vanda hybrid cultivar is relatively close. In conclusion, the <i>CmCyP</i> gene was firstly cloned from<i> Cypripedium macranthum</i>, which provides for further study on biology function of <i>CmCyP</i> gene.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[Tapping-enhanced rubber biosynthesis is closely related to the activation of jasmonate signaling in laticifer cells of rubber tree. The relationship between the expression level of the genes involved in jasmonate signaling and dry rubber yield remains not elucidated. In the present study, the expression of nine genes related to jasmonate signaling was analyzed by qPCR in the laticifer cells of five Wichham germplasms and 5 1981'IRRDB germplasms upon tapping with S/2 d/3 tapping system. The rubber yield per tapping of most Wichham germplasms was significantly higher than that of 1981'IRRDB germplasms. Except for <i>HbMYC</i>4 and <i>HbMYC</i>5, the expression level of the other seven genes in most of Wichham germplasms was significantly higher than that of 1981'IRRDB germplasms. It was noted that the expression of <i>HbMYC</i>3 was highly different and closely related to the rubber yield, which may be used as a candidate marker for rubber yield-breeding of rubber tree.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[To improve the growth and survival race of plants in coal mine waste, potting experiment in greenhouse was carried out to explore the effects of single and mixed inoculation with AM fungi( <i>Funneliformis mosseae</i>, F.m and <i>Claroideoglomus etunicatum</i>, C.e)on the mycorrhizal colonization rate, seedling growth, antioxidant enzyme activity and osmotic adjustment substances of <i> Medicago sativa </i>in different compound substrates. The compound substrates were formed by mixing coal gangue(CG), fly ash(FA)and sandy soil(SS)mixed in different proportions T1(CG:FA:SS=75%:25%:0%), T2(CG:FA:SS=60%:25%:15%), T3(CG:FA:SS=45%:25%:30%), T4(CG:FA:SS=30%:25%:45%)and T5(CG:FA:SS=0%:0%:100%)was taken as control. The results were as follows:(1)Inoculation of AM fungi significantly increased the mycorrhizal colonization rate and mycorrhizal dependency of <i>M. sativa</i>'s root in five different compound substrates. However, the maximum mycorrhizal colonization rate and mycorrhizal dependency after inoculation of F.m+C.e [F.m:C.e=1:1(W/W)](64.31% and 86.24%)occurred in T4 substrate.(2)Inoculation with AM fungi increased height, stem diameter, leaf area and biomass of <i>M. sativa</i> to some degrees, and the effects of mixed inoculation were better than that of single inoculation.(3)Growth of plant roots were inhibited by excessively adding coal mine solid waste. However, inoculation of AM fungi could significantly promote total length, surface area and volume of root, and decreased root average diameter.(4)Comparative effects of different inoculation treatments on POD activity, SOD activity, CAT activity, soluble sugar content and soluble protein content of <i>M. sativa</i> leaves with were F.m + C.e &gt; C.e &gt; F.m&gt;non-AMF, and the optimal effect was showed in inoculated with F.m + C.e. Our results suggested that growth of <i>M. sativa </i>was realistically inhibited in coal mine waste. However, AM fungi significantly enhanced resistance to stress by improved seedling growth, antioxidant enzyme activity, and osmotic adjustment substances, especially the combination of F.m+C.e and compound substrate T4 was the best.]]></description>

soil moisture in <i>Phragmites australis</i> decomposing soil]]></title>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[Both <i>Phragmites australis</i> and <i>Phalaris arundinacea</i> have strong detergency capabilities and are often deployed as wetland plants in the same constructed wetland for sewage treatment. As a kind of allelopathic plant, <i>Phragmites australis</i> has strong allelopathy effects on <i>Phalaris arundinacea</i> and <i>P. arundinacea</i> would be instead of <i>Phragmites australis</i> in both natural wetland and constructed wetland. This phenomenon is related to the soil moisture content and the allelopathic inhibitory effect of <i>P. australis</i> decomposing soil on <i>Phalaris arundinace</i>a is closely related to the amount of total phenolic acids in the decomposing soil. Therefore, high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC)was used to separate and identify phenolic acids substances in <i>Phragmites australis</i> decomposing soil under different moisture content conditions to select the types of phenolic acids that the most obvious responded to moisture in this paper. The competition balance between <i>P. australis</i> and<i> Phalaris arundinacea</i> can be achieved through the regulation of wetland soil moisture, therefore, the long-term stable coexistence of the two species in the constructed wetland can be achieved. The results showed that eight kinds of phenolic acids were separated and identified, which were gallic acid, coumaric acid, vanillic acid, syringic acid, p-coumaric acid, ferulic acid, salicylic acid, and benzoic acid, respectively. The contents of three kinds of phenolic acids of coumaric acid, benzoic acid, and ferulic acid were higher among eight kinds of identified phenolic acids. There was a significant linear negative correlation between content of every identified phenolic acid and the relative moisture content of the <i>Phragmites australis</i> decomposing soil. With the increase of relative moisture content of <i>P. australis</i> decomposing soil, content of every identified phenolic acid showed a downward trend, and the response curve of content of every identified phenolic acid to the relative moisture content of <i>P. australis</i> decomposing soil could be fitted well with a linear equation. Responses of coumarinic acid, gallic acid, and ferulic acid to soil moisture were the most obvious among eight kinds of identified phenolic acids. Therefore, coumanic acid, gallic acid, and ferulic acid can be used as the main regulatory targets, the allelopathic inhibitory effects of <i>P. australis</i> on <i>Phalaris arundinacea</i> can be weakened by regulating the moisture content of wetland soil so as to maintain the stability of <i>Phragmites australis</i> and<i> Phalaris arundinacea</i> community.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[In order to explore ecological adaptation strategies of bryophytes for different water conditions, we determined the water loss characteristics during natural desiccation and water use efficiency of dominated or common bryophyte species from terrestrial, trunk and branch in a moist evergreen broad-leaved forest in Ailao Mountains. Our results demonstrated that weft, fan and pendant life-forms were dominated in terrestrial, bole epiphytic and branch epiphytic bryophytes respectively. Bryophytes from different microhabitats exhibited great variances of water-holding capacity and water loss rate: Water-holding capacity of bryophytes from three microhabitats was 476%DW, 210.98%DW and 238.95%DW respectively; Water-holding capacity and water loss rate of terrestrial bryophytes were higher than these of the trunk- and branch-dwellers. Compared with branch-dwellers, the bole epiphytic bryophytes had lower water-holding capacity and higher water loss rate. Water holding capacity and water loss rate of bryophytes among different life-forms also exhibited significant differences: Weft life-form bryophytes exhibited higher water-holding capacity and higher water loss rate, indicating their weaker water retention capacity, followed by pendant bryophytes, and fan bryophytes had lowest water holding capacity and highest water loss rate. Water use efficiency of terrestrial bryophytes and bole epiphytic bryophytes were significantly higher than branch-dwellers. Weft and fan life-form bryophytes had higher water use efficiency than that of pendant bryophytes. The results indicated that water-holding capacity and water use efficiency of terrestrial bryophytes was higher while water retention capacity was poor; Water retention capacity of branch-dwellers was higher while water-holding capacity and water use efficiency was lower; Water use efficiency of trunk-dwellers was higher while both water-holding capacity and water retention capacity was poor. Life-form composition and water characteristics of bryophytes from terrestrial bryophytes, bole and branch epiphytic bryophytes indicated their adaptation strategies to different habitats to a certain extent. The results would provide a scientific reference for elucidating hydrological features of bryophytes under different microhabitats, and understanding ecological adaptation strategies of bryophyte.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[In order to understand the niche characteristics of dominant tree populations in karst forest, community investigation was conducted on three topography sites(hillside, valley and funnel)in Maolan National Natural Reserve. Niche characteristics of dominant tree populations at three topography sites were analyzed by niche breadth and niche overlap formula. The results were as follows: The niche breadths <i>B<sub>i</sub></i> and <i>B<sub>a</sub> </i>of the dominant tree populations at different topographical sites were slightly different, but overall, they were consistent. The niche breadth of <i>Litsea verticillata </i>in hillside and valley was larger, and its <i>B<sub>i</sub>/B<sub>a</sub></i> were 0.782 4/0.415 7, 0.891 3 / 0.703 0, respectively. The niche breadth of <i>Clausena dunniana </i>in hillside and funnel was larger, and its <i>B<sub>i</sub>/B<sub>a</sub></i> were 0.788 0/0.518 3, 0.962 7/0.826 0, respectively. The niche overlap between <i>Celtis sinensis </i>and <i>Carpinus pubescens</i> in funnel was the largest, being 0.138 2, while those between <i>Viburnum henryi </i>and <i>Triadica rotundifolia</i> in hillside, <i>Litsea verticillata </i>and <i>Cyclobalanopsis glauca </i>in valley were the smallest, being 0.001 5. In addition, species with similar ecological characteristics and habit requirements often had high degrees of niche overlap, species with different ecological characteristics and habit requirements often had low degrees of niche overlap. Species with wide niche breadth often had high degrees of niche overlap, species with narrow niche breadth often had low degrees of niche overlap. In a word, low degrees of niche overlap of dominant species were found at different topography sites and therefore, Maolan karst forest is in a stable climax community stage. But it suggested fierce interspecies competition among dominant species for limited environmental resources in climax community in the forest. The intensity of competition of dominant species at different topography sites is funnel&gt; valley&gt; hillside, light is the main factor affecting the natural distribution of dominant arbor populations.]]></description>

<description xmlns:cf="http://www.microsoft.com/schemas/rss/core/2005" cf:type="html"><![CDATA[In order to understand the distribution law of regional ecosystem vegetation productivity and its effect on regional ecological regulation, based on the annual net primary productivity(<i>NPP</i>)data of MOD17A3, the method of univariate linear regression analysis and Pearson correlation coefficient, etc., were used to analyze spatial and temporal patterns of <i>NPP</i> of vegetation ecosystem in Shandong Province during the past fifteen years from 2000 to 2014 and the effects of climate and human factors. The results were as follows:(1)The average <i>NPP</i> of vegetation in Shandong Province from 2000 to 2014 was 442 gC·m<sup>-2</sup>·a<sup>-1</sup>, and the total average annual <i>NPP</i> was 63.16 T g C. The vegetation <i>NPP</i> of Shandong Province showed obvious spatial differentiation characteristics, among which the vegetation area of the average <i>NPP</i> 300-400 gC·m<sup>-2</sup>·a<sup>-1</sup> was the largest, accounting for 52.28% of the total area, distributed in most of the western part of Shandong Province.(2)The average annual growth rate of <i>NPP</i> in Shandong Province was 3.29 gC·m<sup>-2</sup>·a<sup>-1</sup>, and the increased area accounting for 92.63% of the total vegetation area in Shandong Province. Among them, the area of extremely significant increase accounted for 16.56% of the total area of Shandong Province, mainly distributed in Yantai, Qingdao, Rizhao, Linyi, Weifang, Dongying and Binzhou cities; The regions with significant decrease and extremely significant decrease accounted for 1.33% of the total area of Shandong Province, and were scattered in the Southeast of Shandong Province and the northern Yellow River delta region.(3)The vegetation <i>NPP</i> was affected by the combined effect of factors such as climate change and human activities.
