Observational constraints reduce model spread but not uncertainty in global wetland methane emission estimates

The recent rise in atmospheric methane (CH₄) concentrations accelerates climate change and offsets mitigation efforts. Although wetlands are the largest natural CH₄ source, estimates of global wetland CH₄ emissions vary widely among approaches taken by bottom-up (BU) process-based biogeochemical models and top-down (TD) atmospheric inversion methods. Here, we integrate in situ measurements, multi-model ensembles, and a machine learning upscaling product into the International Land Model Benchmarking system to examine the relationship between wetland CH₄ emission estimates and model performance. We find that using better-performing models identified by observational constraints reduces the spread of wetland CH₄ emission estimates by 62% and 39% for BU- and TD-based approaches, respectively. However, global BU and TD CH₄ emission estimate discrepancies increased by about 15% (from 31 to 36 TgCH₄ year⁻¹) when the top 20% models were used, although we consider this result moderately uncertain given the unevenly distributed global observations. Our analyses demonstrate that model performance ranking is subject to benchmark selection due to large inter-site variability, highlighting the importance of expanding coverage of benchmark sites to diverse environmental conditions. We encourage future development of wetland CH₄ models to move beyond static benchmarking and focus on evaluating site-specific and ecosystem-specific variabilities inferred from observations.     

A bacterial type III effector targets plant vesicle-associated membrane proteins

The soilborne bacterial pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum is one of the most destructive plant pathogens worldwide, and its infection process involves the manipulation of numerous plant cellular functions. In this work, we found that the R. solanacearum effector protein RipD partially suppressed different levels of plant immunity triggered by R. solanacearum elicitors, including specific responses triggered by pathogen-associated molecular patterns and secreted effectors. RipD localized in different subcellular compartments in plant cells, including vesicles, and its vesicular localization was enriched in cells undergoing R. solanacearum infection, suggesting that this specific localization may be particularly relevant during infection. Among RipD-interacting proteins, we identified plant vesicle-associated membrane proteins (VAMPs). We also found that overexpression of Arabidopsis thaliana VAMP721 and VAMP722 in Nicotiana benthamiana leaves promoted resistance to R. solanacearum, and this was abolished by the simultaneous expression of RipD, suggesting that RipD targets VAMPs to contribute to R. solanacearum virulence. Among proteins secreted in VAMP721/722-containing vesicles, CCOAOMT1 is an enzyme required for lignin biosynthesis, and mutation of CCOAOMT1 enhanced plant susceptibility to R. solanacearum. Altogether our results reveal the contribution of VAMPs to plant resistance against R. solanacearum and their targeting by a bacterial effector as a pathogen virulence strategy.

RAPD重建的大豆属植物的亲缘关系

利用８种ＲＡＰＤ引物（ＯＰＨ－２、ＯＰＨ－３、ＯＰＨ－５、ＯＰＨ－１２、ＯＰＨ－１５、ＯＰＨ－１６、ＯＰＨ－１８和ＯＰＨ－２０）对大豆属的２１份植物材料,其中包括Ｇｌｙｃｉｎｅ亚属的１０个种和Ｓｏｊａ亚属的３个种,进行了基因组指纹图谱构建。通过对获得的基因组指纹图谱的量化分析,利用Ｕｎｗｅｉｇｈｔｅｄｐａｉｒｇｒｏｕｐｗｉｔｈｍａｔｈｅｍａｔｉｃａｖｅｒａｇｅ（ＵＰＧＭＡ）对大豆属中的各个种进行了亲缘关系重建。重建的亲缘关系表明：Ｇ．ｔｏｍｅｎｔｅｌｌａ种中存在３种不同的进化类型,其分化距离已大于某些种种间的分化距离,它们可能是被形态遮蔽的３个种。Ｓｏｊａ亚属内３个种的分化关系同前人的研究推断相同,其亲缘关系很近,这一结果支持将这３个种归并为一个种的观点。但是重建的亲缘关系未能显示出大豆属两个亚属的划分格局。     

庐山山体人为剖面垂直绿化设计初探

庐山雄居江南,兀立鄱阳湖西北,自然风景“奇、特、秀、丽”素有“匡庐奇秀甲天下”之美称,是我国长江中下游著名的风景游览区,也是中外闻名的避暑胜地。近几十年来,随着庐山疗、休养及旅游事业的发展。交通运输和城市建设也发生了显著变化。由于公路和房屋建筑的不断修建,庐山自然山体被人为切割成一系列裸露剖面,自然环境受到较大破坏。为了更好地建设庐山,美化庐山,搞好庐山山体人为剖面垂直绿化,已成为庐山绿化建设的重要课题。本文试图通过对庐山地质、地貌、土壤、气候、植被的综合分析,扼要阐述各种人为剖面的不同特征与分布规律,初步提出解决人为剖面垂直绿化的基本原则与方法,供山地园林绿化工作者参考。
