Although the mechanisms of Ⅴ stress to the microbial community have been reported, the influential pathways in a multi-medium-containing system, for example, the soil-tailings-groundwater system,are unknown. The dynamic redox conditions and substance exchange within the system exhibited complex Ⅴ stress on the local microbial communities. In this study, the influence pathways of Ⅴ stress to the microbial community in the soil-tailings-groundwater system were first investigated. High Ⅴ contents were observed in groundwater(139.2 ± 0.15 μg/L) and soil(98.0–323.8 ± 0.02 mg/kg), respectively. Distinct microbial composition was observed for soil and groundwater, where soil showed the highest level of diversity and richness. Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, Actinobacteria, and Acidobacteria were dominant in soil and groundwater with a sum relative abundance of around 80 %. Based on redundancy analysis and structural equation models, Ⅴ was one of the vital driving factors affecting microbial communities. Groundwater microbial communities were influenced by Ⅴ via Cr, dissolved oxygen, and total nitrogen, while Fe, Mn, and total phosphorus were the key mediators for Ⅴ to affect soil microbial communities. Ⅴ affected the microbial community via metabolic pathways related to carbonaceous matter, which was involved in the establishment of survival strategies for metal stress. This study provides novel insights into the influence pathways of Ⅴ on the microorganisms in tailings reservoir for pollution bioremediation.展开更多

文摘Temperate woodland vegetation is initially determined by spatiotemporal and historical factors,mediated by complex biotic interactions.However,catastrophic events such as disease outbreaks(e.g.,sweet chestnut blight,ash dieback),infestations of insect pests,and human-accelerated climate change can create canopy gaps due to systematic decline in,or loss of,tree species that was once an important part of the canopy.Resultant cascade effects have the potential to alter the composition of woodland ecosystems quickly and radically,but inherent lag times make primary research into these effects challenging.Here,we explore change in woodland vegetation at 10 sites in response to canopy opening using the Elm Decline,a rapid loss of Ulmus in woodlands across northwestern Europe~5800 years ago that coexisted alongside other stressors such as increasing human activity,as a palaeoecological analogue.For arboreal taxa,community evenness significantly decreased,within-site turnover significantly increased,and richness remained unchanged.Changes in arboreal taxa were highly site-specific but there was a substantial decline in woody climbing taxa,especially Hedera(ivy),across the majority of sites.For shrub taxa,richness significantly increased but evenness and turnover remained consistent.Interestingly,however,there was a significant increase in abundance of shrubs at 70%of sites,including Calluna(heather),Ilex(holly)and Corylus(hazel),suggesting structural change.Surprisingly,there was no change in richness,evenness or turnover for herb taxa,possibly because change was highly variable spatially.However,there was a marked uptick in the disturbance indicator Plantago(plantain).Overall,these findings suggest that woodlands with sustained reduction in,or loss of,a tree species that once formed an important part of the canopy has profound,but often spatially idiosyncratic,impacts on vegetation diversity(richness),composition(evenness),stability(turnover),and on abundance of specific taxa,especially within the shrub layer.Use of this palaeoecological analogue,which was itself complicated by cooccurring changes in human activity,provides a valuable empirical insight into possible cascade effects of similar change in canopy opening in contemporary settings,including Ash Dieback.

文摘Maintaining community stability has profound positive impacts on the ecological functions and sustainable utilization of grassland ecosystems.Numerous studies have explored how community stability responds to climate change and its relationship with plant species diversity.Nevertheless,the impact and underlying mechanisms of belowground ecosystem multifunctionality(BGEMF)on community stability along a precipitation gradient in alpine grasslands remain poorly understood.To address this knowledge gap,we conducted field surveys from 2015 to 2020,measuring plant species diversity,annual net primary productivity(ANPP),and soil physicochemical properties across 79 sites in alpine grassland ecosystems on the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau.Our findings highlight both plant species diversity(standardized total effect:32%)and BGEMF(standardized total effect:75%)had an indirect effect on stability viaregulating mean ANPP within alpine grasslands.Furthermore,mean annual precipitation substantially impacted both plant species diversity and BGEMF,subsequently affecting community stability.However,temperature had a strong negative regulatory effect on species diversity,the mean and variability of ANPP.Thus,we emphasized the pivotal role of plant species diversity and BGEMF in shaping community stability,and stated the imperative need for species conservation and BGEMF improvement to sustain alpine ecosystems in the face of ongoing climate change.

文摘Agricultural heritage systems have the characteristics of ecological fragility and cultural sensitivity.For a long time,the conservation and sustainable development of agricultural heritage systems have received attention from all sectors.However,there are few measurements of tourism disturbance(TD)and community resilience(CR)in agricultural heritage sites,and research on the relationship between the two is even more lacking.This study selects six villages in the Honghe Hani Rice Terraced System(HHRTS)as examples and constructs an evaluation system for TD and CR.Through questionnaires and in-depth interviews,it explores the response relationship between TD and CR of heritage site,and compares the response relationship of villages in different stages of tourism development.The results indicate that the heritage site's current response relationship between TD and CR shows a positive response type,and the development of tourism has brought positive responses and effects.There are differences in the interactive relationship between TD and CR among communities with different levels of tourism development.In communities with poor tourism development,CR is more susceptible to the impact of TD than other communities.The stability of the relationship between TD and CR response gradually tends to stabilize from poor,good,and moderate tourism development.

文摘The gut microbiota:The human body is colonized by a diverse and complex microbial community–including bacteria,viruses,archaea,and unicellular eukaryotes–that plays a central role in human wellbeing.Indeed,microbiota is crucial for several functions,including host metabolism,physiology,maintenance of the intestinal epithelial integrity,nutrition,and immune function,earning it the designation of a“vital organ”(Guinane and Cotter,2013).
文摘The lesser spiny eel(Macrognathus aculeatus)is a significant species in Southeast Asia’s freshwater ecosystems,particularly in the Progo River,Indonesia.This study investigates the reproductive biology of the lesser spiny eel,focusing on size,weight,sex ratio,gonad maturity,fertility,and environmental influences on spawning.A total of 217 eels were sampled,and data on gonadal maturity index(GMI),fecundity,and oocyte size were collected and analyzed.The study found a balanced sex ratio of 0.95:1.0,with significant fluctuations during the spawning season.Female eels averaged 33.4 cm in length and 130.4 g in weight,while males averaged 31.6 cm and 107.7 g.Over 58%of females reached gonadal maturity level IV during peak spawning months,indicating synchronized reproductive cycles.The average fecundity at maturity level IV was 2062±605 grains,with larger oocytes being released during spawning.The findings highlight the importance of hydrological conditions in the reproductive success of lesser spiny eels.The study confirms that environmental factors,such as rainfall and water temperature,significantly influence spawning behavior.The low relative fecundity suggests vulnerability to overfishing and habitat degradation,emphasizing the need for targeted conservation efforts.The lesser spiny eel’s reproductive biology is intricately linked to environmental conditions,necessitating comprehensive conservation strategies that include habitat protection and community engagement.By fostering local involvement and awareness,conservation initiatives can enhance the sustainability of this species and its ecosystem,ensuring the long-term viability of the lesser spiny eel in the Progo River.
文摘Community detection is one of the most fundamental applications in understanding the structure of complicated networks.Furthermore,it is an important approach to identifying closely linked clusters of nodes that may represent underlying patterns and relationships.Networking structures are highly sensitive in social networks,requiring advanced techniques to accurately identify the structure of these communities.Most conventional algorithms for detecting communities perform inadequately with complicated networks.In addition,they miss out on accurately identifying clusters.Since single-objective optimization cannot always generate accurate and comprehensive results,as multi-objective optimization can.Therefore,we utilized two objective functions that enable strong connections between communities and weak connections between them.In this study,we utilized the intra function,which has proven effective in state-of-the-art research studies.We proposed a new inter-function that has demonstrated its effectiveness by making the objective of detecting external connections between communities is to make them more distinct and sparse.Furthermore,we proposed a Multi-Objective community strength enhancement algorithm(MOCSE).The proposed algorithm is based on the framework of the Multi-Objective Evolutionary Algorithm with Decomposition(MOEA/D),integrated with a new heuristic mutation strategy,community strength enhancement(CSE).The results demonstrate that the model is effective in accurately identifying community structures while also being computationally efficient.The performance measures used to evaluate the MOEA/D algorithm in our work are normalized mutual information(NMI)and modularity(Q).It was tested using five state-of-the-art algorithms on social networks,comprising real datasets(Zachary,Dolphin,Football,Krebs,SFI,Jazz,and Netscience),as well as twenty synthetic datasets.These results provide the robustness and practical value of the proposed algorithm in multi-objective community identification.

文摘Phosphorus (P) is an essential nutrient element that is critical for plant growth and ecosystem functionality.The soil P cycle plays multiple roles,such as sustaining plant growth and productivity,regulating nutrient balance within ecosystems,and enhancing ecosystem adaptability and resilience.This cycle is influenced by factors such as the restoration approach and microbial community dynamics.However,the extent to which the restoration approach alters the P cycle in karst ecosystems and the underlying microbial mechanisms remain poorly understood.The P-cycle multifunctionality index (P-cycle MFI) serves as a comprehensive indicator for evaluating soil P cycle function,and it provides insights into changes in the P cycle between different restoration approaches.To investigate the shifts in soil P-cycle MFI and microbial mechanisms between different restoration approaches,we analyzed soil available P (AP),total P (TP),microbial biomass P (MBP),and the activities of acid phosphatase (ACP) and alkaline phosphatase (ALP).These data were used to calculate the P-cycle MFI by averaging the Z-scores between two restoration approaches(artificial restoration of forest (AF) and natural restoration of forest (NF)) and a control (cropland,CP) at six subtropical karst ecosystem sites in China.We also determined the soil organic carbon (SOC),exchangeable calcium (Ca) and magnesium (Mg),pH,bulk density (BD),microbial biomass C (MBC),and microbial biomass nitrogen (MBN),as well as the community structure,relative abundance,diversity indices,and co-occurrence networks of phoD-harboring bacteria.The results showed that the community structure of phoD-harboring bacteria varied significantly among AF,NF,and CP and across different temperature gradients.These bacteria exhibited increasing complexity and tightness in co-occurrence networks from CP to AF and then to NF,along with the ACP and ALP activities,but not the TP and AP contents.The P-cycle MFI values were significantly higher in NF compared to AF and CP,and the variation was significantly explained by restoration approach,temperature,MBC,MBN,SOC,exchangeable Ca,BD,community structure of phoD-harboring bacteria,and exchangeable Mg.Furthermore,natural restoration had a more substantial impact on the P-cycle MFI than temperature by enhancing SOC,microbial biomass,the complexity and co-occurrence network tightness of the phoD-harboring bacterial community structure,and ACP and ALP activities,but it reduced soil BD.The rare genera of phoD-harboring bacteria significantly influenced the variation of soil P-cycle MFI compared to the dominant genera.This study highlights the importance of rare genera of phoD-harboring bacteria in driving soil P-cycle multifunctionality in karst ecosystems,with natural restoration being more effective than artificial methods for enhancing soil organic matter and microbial community complexity.

文摘Fungi play crucial roles in nutrient acquisition,plant growth promotion,and the enhancement of resistance to both abiotic and biotic stresses.However,studies on the fungal communities associated with peas (Pisum sativum L.) remain limited.In this study,we systematically investigated the ecological effects of host niches (soil,root,stem,leaf,and pod) and genotypes on the diversity and composition of fungal communities in peas using a multi-level approach that encompassed pattern recognition (β-diversity decomposition),mechanism validation (neutral community model testing),and dynamic tracking methods (migration pathway source-tracking).The results revealed that the dominant fungal phyla across niches and genotypes were Ascomycota,Basidiomycota,and Mortierellomycota,and the community structures of the soil–plant continuum were primarily determined by the pea niches rather than genotypes.β-diversity decomposition was largely attributed to species replacement rather than richness differences,indicating strong niche specificity and microbial replacement across microhabitats.Neutral model analysis revealed that stochastic processes influenced genotypeassociated communities,while deterministic processes played a dominant role in niche-based community assembly.Source-tracking analysis identified niche-to-niche fungal migration,with Erysiphe,Fusarium,Cephaliophora,Ascobolus,Alternaria,and Aspergillus as the key genera.Migration rates from exogenous to endogenous niches were low (1.3–61.5%),whereas those within exogenous (64.4–83.7%) or endogenous (73.9–96.4%) compartments were much higher,suggesting that the pea epidermis acts as a selective barrier that filters and enriches microbial communities prior to internal colonization.This study provides comprehensive insights into the mechanisms of host filtering,enrichment and microbial sourcing,which increases our understanding of the assembly rules of the pea-associated fungal microbiome.

文摘The root-to-shoot(R/S)ratio is a critical indicator of the balance between root biomass and shoot biomass,representing the ecological strategies and adaptive responses of plants to environmental conditions.However,the patterns of change in community R/S ratios during forest succession and their response to moisture levels across broad geographic gradients remains unclear.Based on forest biomass data from a national field inventory of 5,825 plots conducted across China between 2011 and 2015,this study looked into allocating biomass shoots and roots at the early,middle,and late stages of growth in plantations and succession in natural forests,and evaluated how moisture availability influences this allocation.The results revealed a significant decline in R/S ratios from early to late stages for both plantations and natural forests.Shoot and root biomass in plantations grew isometrically during the early and middle succession stages but shifted to allometric growth in the late stage,with the slope of the log-transformed shoot-root biomass relationship differing significantly across growth stages.Natural forests,in contrast,maintained isometric growth across successional stages,showing no significant variation in the slope of the log-transformed shoot-root biomass relationship.Environmental factors,particularly moisture levels,strongly influenced R/S ratios.Moisture levels significantly affected size-corrected R/S ratios,particularly in the middle stage of plantations and the early and middle stages of natural forests,supporting the hypothesis of optimal allocation.These findings suggest that in water-limited regions,forest management should prioritize drought-tolerant,deep-rooted native species,encourage mixed-species planting in the early stage,and reduce logging intensity in mature plantations.Conserving natural forests to maintain successional dynamics is essential for long-term ecological resilience.These findings emphasize the importance of balancing productivity with ecological sustainability by adapting practices to specific environments and forest types under climate change.
