description: Crescent Dune Beach, a stretch of coastline along the southern shore of Lake Michigan in the Indiana Dunes National Park, is among the most erosive beaches in the world (Luijendijk et al. 2018; Robinson et al. 2024). East of the beach, the Michigan City Harbor is impeding the natural littoral transport of sediment. The erosion at Crescent Dune has been compounded by near-record high water levels in 2020, which continue to remain above average. A series of topo-bathymetric surveys involving single beam sonar, backpack terrestrial LiDAR, and a GNSS survey rod were conducted as part of a USACE beach nourishment monitoring program. In addition to monitoring the morphology of sand from a subaerial nourishment, this study aims to determine changes to the subaerial beach, nearshore, and Mt. Baldy sand dune through comparisons to historical topo-bathymetric data between 2012 and 2023. The subaerial beach volume change between 2012 and 2020, coinciding with a steady rise in water levels, was the highest compared to other periods, ranging from -9 m3/m/yr to -122 m3/m/yr. Additionally, subaerial erosion is most pronounced along the western sections of Crescent Dune Beach. Sand volume losses for the nearshore region exceeded -100 m3/m/yr, and cross-shore profiles showed a continuing trend of down-cutting in the seafloor between 2012 and 2024. Finally, the crest of the Mt. Baldy sand dune is steadily retreating southward, posing the risk of inundation to National Park Service (NPS) property. The results of this study provide valuable insights into the extent of beach rebuilding and erosion since the near record-high water mark in 2020, reveal morphological changes to the Mt. Baldy sand dune, and contribute to improved outcomes for future nourishment projects. Routine beach nourishments at this site have greatly mitigated erosion, though it remains a concern.

description: Elevated temperatures critically impact crop growth, development, and yield, with photosynthesis being the most temperature-sensitive physiological process in plants. This study focused on assessing the photosynthetic response and genetic adaptation of two different heat-resistant jujube varieties ‘Junzao’ (J) and ‘Fucuimi’ (F), to high-temperature stress (42°C Day/30°C Night). Comparative analyses of leaf photosynthetic indices, microstructural changes, and transcriptome sequencing were conducted. Results indicated superior high-temperature adaptability in F, evidenced by alterations in leaf stomatal behavior – particularly in J, where defense cells exhibited significant water loss, shrinkage, and reduced stomatal opening, alongside a marked increase in stomatal density. Through transcriptome sequencing 13,884 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were identified, significantly enriched in pathways related to plant-pathogen interactions, amino acid biosynthesis, starch and sucrose metabolism, and carbohydrate metabolism. Key findings include the identification of photosynthetic pathway related DEGs and HSFA1s as central regulators of thermal morphogenesis and heat stress response. Revealing their upregulation in F and downregulation in J. The results indicate that these genes play a crucial role in improving heat tolerance in F. This study unveils critical photosynthetic genes involved in heat stress, providing a theoretical foundation for comprehending the molecular mechanisms underlying jujube heat tolerance.

description: Lilium pumilum DC (L. pumilum DC) plays an important role in the rational utilization of salinized soil. To explore the molecular mechanism of salt-tolerant L. pumilum, the LpMYB4 was cloned. LpMYB4 close relationship with Bambusa emeiensis and Zea mays MYB4 throughout the phylogenetic tree construction. LpMYB4 protein was found to be localized in the nucleus. Prokaryotic and eukaryotic bacterial solution resistance experiments proved that the exogenous introduction of LpMYB4 made the overexpression strains obtain better survival ability under saline-alkaline stress. Compared with wild-type plants, tobacco plants overexpressing LpMYB4 had better growth and lower leaf wilting and lodging, the content of chlorophyll was higher, the content of hydrogen peroxide and superoxide anion was lower, the activity of peroxidase and superoxide dismutase was higher and the relative conductivity was lower under saline-alkaline stress. The analysis of seed germination and seedling resistance of transgenic plants under salt stress showed that LpMYB4 transgenic seeds were more tolerant to salt stress during germination and growth. Yeast two-hybrid and two-luciferase complementation experiments showed that LpMYB4 interacted with yeast two-hybrid and LpGPX6. The analysis of the role of LpMYB4 in improving plant saline-alkali resistance is helpful to the transformation of plant germplasm resources and has great significance for agriculture and sustainable development.

description: Plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPRs) have been utilized to immobilize heavy metals, limiting their translocation in metal contaminated settings. However, studies on the mechanisms and interactions that elucidate how PGPRs mediate Nickel (Ni) tolerance in plants are rare. Thus, in this study we investigated how two pre-characterized heavy metal tolerant isolates of Morganella morganii (ABT9 and ABT3) improve Ni stress tolerance in Arabidopsis while enhancing its growth and yield. Arabidopsis seedlings were grown for five weeks in control/Ni contaminated (control, 1.5 mM and 2.5 mM) potted soil, in the presence or absence of PGPRs. Plant growth characteristics, quantum yield, and antioxidative enzymatic activities were analyzed to assess the influence of PGPRs on plant physiology. Oxidative stress tolerance was quantified by measuring MDA accumulation in Arabidopsis plants. As expected, Ni stress substantially reduced plant growth (shoot and root fresh weight by 53.25% and 58.77%, dry weight by 49.80% and 57.41% and length by 47.16% and 64.63% over control), chlorophyll content and quantum yield (by 40.21% and 54.37% over control). It also increased MDA content by 84.28% at higher (2.5 mM) Ni concentrations. In contrast, inoculation with M. morganii led to significant improvements in leaf chlorophyll, quantum yield, and Arabidopsis biomass production. The mitigation of adverse effects of Ni stress on biomass observed in M. morganii-inoculated plants was attributed to the enhancement of antioxidative enzyme activities compared to Ni-treated plants. This upregulation of the antioxidative defense mechanism mitigated Ni-induced oxidative stress, leading to improved performance of the photosynthetic machinery, which, in turn, enhanced chlorophyll content and quantum yield. Understanding the underlying mechanisms of these tolerance-inducing processes will help to complete the picture of PGPRs-mediated defense signaling. Thus, it suggests that M. morganii PGPRs candidate can potentially be utilized for plant growth promotion by reducing oxidative stress via upregulating antioxidant defense systems in Ni-contaminated soils and reducing Ni metal uptake.

description: Hydrogen sulfide (H2S) is a crucial signaling molecule in plants. Recent studies have shown that H2S plays an equally important role as nitric oxide (NO) and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) in plant signaling. Previous studies have demonstrated the involvement of H2S in regulating drought and other stressful environmental conditions, but the exact downstream molecular mechanisms activated by the H2S signaling molecule remain unclear. In this study, we conducted a comprehensive genome-wide transcriptomic analysis of both wild type (WT) and double mutant (lcd/des1). Arabidopsis thaliana plants were exposed to 40% polyethylene glycol (PEG) to induce drought stress and 20 µM sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS). The resulting transcriptome data were analyzed for differentially significant genes and their statistical enrichments in the Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes (KEGG) pathways. The results indicated significant upregulation of genes related to photosynthesis, carbon fixation, plant secondary metabolite biosynthesis, inositol and phosphatidylinositol signaling pathways, and stress-responsive pathways in mutant plants under drought stress. Mutant plants with impaired H2S signaling mechanisms displayed greater susceptibility to drought stress compared to wild-type plants. In summary, all findings highlight the pivotal role of H2S signaling in stimulating other drought-responsive signaling pathways.

description: As sessile organisms, plants have evolved complex signaling mechanisms to sense stress and acclimate. This includes the use of reactive oxygen species (ROS) generated during dysfunctional photosynthesis to initiate signaling. One such ROS, singlet oxygen (1O2), can trigger retrograde signaling, chloroplast degradation, and programmed cell death. However, the signaling mechanisms are largely unknown. Several proteins (e.g. PUB4, OXI1, EX1) are proposed to play signaling roles across three Arabidopsis thaliana mutants that conditionally accumulate chloroplast 1O2 (fluorescent in blue light (flu), chlorina 1 (ch1), and plastid ferrochelatase 2 (fc2)). We previously demonstrated that these mutants reveal at least two chloroplast 1O2 signaling pathways (represented by flu and fc2/ch1). Here, we test if the 1O2-accumulating lesion mimic mutant, accelerated cell death 2 (acd2), also utilizes these pathways. The pub4–6 allele delayed lesion formation in acd2 and restored photosynthetic efficiency and biomass. Conversely, an oxi1 mutation had no measurable effect on these phenotypes. acd2 mutants were not sensitive to excess light (EL) stress, yet pub4–6 and oxi1 both conferred EL tolerance within the acd2 background, suggesting that EL-induced 1O2 signaling pathways are independent from spontaneous lesion formation. Thus, 1O2 signaling in acd2 may represent a third (partially overlapping) pathway to control cellular degradation.

description: SMALL AUXIN UP RNAs (SAURs), the largest family of early auxin response genes, plays crucial roles in multiple processes, including cell expansion, leaf growth and senescence, auxin transport, tropic growth and so on. Although the rice SAUR gene family was identified in 2006, it is necessary to identify the rice SAUR gene due to the imperfection of its analysis methods. In this study, a total of 60 OsSAURs (including two pseudogenes) distributed on 10 chromosomes were identified in rice (Oryza sativa). Bioinformatics tools were used to systematically analyze the physicochemical properties, subcellular localization, motif compositions, chromosomal location, gene duplication, evolutionary relationships, auxin-responsive cis-elements of the OsSAURs. In addition, the expression profiles obtained from microarray data analysis showed that OsSAUR genes had different expression patterns in different tissues and responded to auxin treatment, indicating functional differences among members of OsSAUR gene family. In a word, this study provides basic information for SAUR gene family of rice and lays a foundation for further study on the role of SAUR in rice growth and development.

description: Chloroplast photorelocation is a vital organellar response that optimizes photosynthesis in plants amid fluctuating environmental conditions. Chloroplasts exhibit an accumulation response, in which they move toward weak light to enhance photoreception, and an avoidance response, in which they move away from strong light to avoid photodamage. Although chloroplast photorelocation has been extensively studied in model plants such as Arabidopsis thaliana, little is known about this process in the economically important crop strawberry. Here, we investigated chloroplast photorelocation in leaf mesophyll cells of wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca), a diploid relative of commercially cultivated octoploid strawberry (F. × ananassa). Microscopy observation revealed that the periclinal area of leaf mesophyll cells in F. vesca is considerably smaller than that of A. thaliana. Given this small cell size, we investigated chloroplast photorelocation in F. vesca by measuring light transmittance in leaves. Weak blue light induced the accumulation response, whereas strong blue light induced the avoidance response. Unexpectedly, strong red light also induced the accumulation response in F. vesca. These findings shed light on chloroplast photorelocation as an intracellular response, laying the foundation for enhancing photosynthesis and productivity in Fragaria.

Discussion: Most faunal lists, either with or without reservations, have recognized only two species (Ellerman et al., 1953; Meester et al., 1986; Misonne, 1974). We retain our earlier arrangement (Musser and Carleton, 1993), based on study of museum specimens and original descriptions, and continue to recognize four morphologically distinctive species, a conclusion also recorded by Skinner and Smithers (1990). Comprehensive systematic revision should be undertaken.

description: The process of silique dehiscence is essential for the proper dispersal of seeds at the end of a dehiscent fruit plants lifecycle. Current research focuses on genetic manipulation to mitigate this process and enhance shatter tolerance in crop plants, which has significant economic implications. In this study, we have conducted a time-course analysis of cell patterning and development in valve tissues of Arabidopsis thaliana and closely related Triangle of U species (Brassica juncea, Brassica carinata, Brassica napus, Brassica rapa, and Brassica nigra) from Brassicaceae. The goal was to decipher the detailed temporal developmental patterns of the endocarp a and b cell layers of the valve, specifically their degradation and lignification respectively. Additionally, we propose a new classification system for the lignification of the endocarp a cell layer: L1 indicates the cell closest to the replum, with L2 and L3 representing the second and third cells, respectively, each numerical increment indicating lignified cells farther from the replum. Our findings provide a foundational framework absent in current literature, serving as an effective blueprint for future genomic work aimed at modifying valve structures to enhance agronomic traits, such as reducing fiber (lignin) or increasing shatter tolerance.

title: Anxious expressions: remote relationships in the Canning correspondence network 1760-1830
Creators: name: Bynoth, R

description: This is the first in-depth study of familial anxiety in the long eighteenth century. Focusing on
the letters of one family, the Cannings, this thesis explores the emotional expressions of
anxiety across the lifecycle, from 1760 to 1830. Though the Cannings are not representative
of all families, the extensive archives of around 1500 letters, from fourteen members of the
family, mean that various perspectives and relationships are presented . The Cannings also
had many reasons to be anxious: death, hardship, reputational concerns, war, and familial
rifts were some of the challenges they faced across this seventy-year period, as well as more
everyday anxieties. The thesis uses Hitty and Mary Anne Canning's lives as the backbone to
explore courtship and early marriage, pregnancy, parenthood, growing up, later life and
death and grief. It aims to consider how anxiety operated within remote relationships
during this period, particularly adopting history of emotions methods to uncover the
nuances within remote familial relationships. This study demonstrates how anxious
language and tone was an important linguistic tool in correspondences and was used to
renegotiate familial relationships in a variety of situations.
It affirms that anxiety existed across the lifecycle and across all relationships in different
strengths, and that social and familial relationships were crucial in the expressions of various
anxieties. These anxieties largely remained constant across the time period covered but
were expressed in idiosyncratic ways, dependent on familial relationship, age and social and
individual contexts. Thus, context is inherently important for understanding the nuances of
emotional expressions in letters. Most importantly, this thesis shows how anxiety was used
to express other emotions, most notably grief and love. Overall, it argues that more
attention should be paid to the everyday expressions of anxiety, not just considering anxiety
in relation to mental health.

description: Luciferase is one of the bioluminescence-producing agents, which was widely used as a reporter enzyme for constructing bioassay systems to study gene expression with high accuracy and within a broad dynamic spectrum. Perception of pathogen associated molecular patterns (PAMPs) in plants often lead to significant transcriptional changes. The transcriptional changes of defense-related genes are often used as a marker to assay PAMP-triggered plant immune response. In this study, we showed that the marker gene CYP71D20 was rapidly activated in Nicotiana benthamiana upon treatment with the bacterial PAMP flg22 and the Phytophthora elicitin INF1. In addition, we generated transgenic N. benthamiana using the luciferase as a reporter gene to analyze CYP71D20 gene expression upon PAMP treatment. The transgenic line carrying the luciferase gene driven by CYP71D20 promoter was treated with the bacterial PAMP flg22 or Phytophthora elicitin INF1. Transcriptional activation of CYP71D20 was measured by monitoring the luciferase activity. The results showed that the LUC activity was increased after treatment with different PAMPs, indicating that the CYP71D20-promotor luciferase assay can be used to study the PAMP-triggered gene expression in N. benthamiana.

Type Locality: Namibia, Damaraland, Karibib, northwest of Windhoek, 3142 ft (958 m).
Vernacular Names: Pygmy Rock Mouse.
Synonyms: Petromyscus bruchus (Thomas and Hinton 1925); Petromyscus capensis Shortridge and Carter 1938; Petromyscus kaokoensis Roberts 1938; Petromyscus kurzi Lehmann 1955; Petromyscus namibensis Roberts 1948; Petromyscus rufus Lundholm 1955; Petromyscus variabilis Lundholm 1955.
Distribution: SW Angola (along the Inselberge belt between Namib and mopani areas; Crawford-Cabral, 1966 b, 1998) and Kaokoveld region in N Namibia, south through Namibia, to W Limpopo of South Africa south of the Orange River in Goodhouse and Pella areas; also recorded from Western Cape Prov.
Conservation: IUCN – Lower Risk (lc).
Discussion: Reviewed by Skinner and Smithers (1990) and de Graaff (1997 jj). Roberts (1951) listed capensis, known only from Goodhouse, as a species, and Meester et al. (1986) treated it as a full synonym of P. collinus barbouri. In arranging capensis as a subspecies of P. collinus, however, Shortridge and Carter (1938) properly reflected its affinity and appreciated that its morphology is unlike P. barbouri, which they described in the same paper and knew well. Roberts (1951) also treated bruchus (S Namibia, Great Brukkaros Mtn) as a separate species, merging the northern shortridgei as a subspecies. The latter is clearly a species separate from P. collinus (see comments under shortridgei), but the status of bruchus will have to be illuminated in a revision; the few specimens we have seen from Great Brukkaros Mtn are examples of P. collinus.
