    Abstract Subtropical Chinese fir plantations have been experiencing increased nitrogen deposition and understory management because of human activities. Nevertheless, effect of increased nitrogen deposition and understory removal in the plantations on microbial community stability and the resulting consequences for ecosystem functioning is still unclear. We carried out a 5-year experiment of canopy nitrogen addition (2.5 g N m

    Abstract Global change factors are known to strongly affect soil microbial community function and composition. However, as of yet, the effects of warming and increased anthropogenic nitrogen deposition on soil microbial network complexity and stability are still unclear. Here, we examined the effects of experimental warming (3°C above ambient soil temperature) and nitrogen addition (5 g N m
    Importance: Soil microbes play a very important role in maintaining the function and health of forest ecosystems. Unfortunately, global change factors are profoundly affecting soil microbial structure and function. In this study, we found that climate warming promoted bacterial network stability and nitrogen deposition decreased bacterial network stability. Changes in bacterial network stability had strong effects on bacterial community functional potentials linked to metabolism, nitrogen cycling, and carbon cycling, which would change the biogeochemical cycle in primary forests.

    Abstract The nutritional and volatile profiles of pulp and flavedo samples from four distinct local pummelo landraces (“Siji,” “Pingshan,” “Wendan,” and “Guanxi”) cultivated in Fujian province of China were investigated. “Guanxi” pummelo exhibited relatively high contents of vitamin C (42.01 mg/100 mL) and phenols (360.61 mg/L) and displayed a robust antioxidant capacity (41.15 mg/100 mL). Conversely, the red pulp from “Pingshan” demonstrated relatively high values of carotenoids (55.96 µg/g) and flavonoids (79.79 mg/L). Considerable differences were observed in volatile compositions between the two fruit tissues and among the four genotypes. A total of 166 and 255 volatile compounds were detected in the pulp and flavedo samples, respectively. Notably, limonene and β‐myrcene were identified as the principal volatile compounds in flavedo, whereas hexanal was highly abundant in the pulp of “Siji,” “Pingshan,” and “Guanxi.” “Wendan” displayed distinct separation from the other three pummelo cultivars in principal component analysis based on the pulp volatile compositions. This distinction was attributed to the higher number and content of volatile compounds in “Wendan” pulp, particularly the remarkable enrichment of β‐myrcene. The newly characterized pummelo landraces and genotype/tissue‐dependent variations in volatiles provide essential information for the genetic improvement of pummelo aroma, as well as for fruit processing and utilization.

    Abstract Understanding the tripartite consortium of crop, mycobiome, and environment is necessary to advance smart farming. Owing to their life cycle of hundreds of years, tea plants are excellent models for studying these entwined relationships; however, observations on this globally important cash crop with numerous health benefits are still rudimentary. Here, the fungal taxa along the soil–tea plant continuum in tea gardens of different ages in famous high-quality tea-growing regions in China were characterized using DNA metabarcoding. Using machine learning, we dissected the spatiotemporal distribution, co-occurrence patterns, assembly, and their associations in different compartments of tea-plant mycobiomes, and further explored how these potential interactions were driven by environmental factors and tree age, and how they influenced the market prices of tea. The results revealed that Compartment niche differentiation was the key driving force behind variation in the tea-plant mycobiome. The mycobiome of roots had the highest specific proportion and convergence and almost did not overlap with the soil. The enrichment ratio of developing leaves to root mycobiome increased with increasing tree age, while mature leaves showed the highest value in the Laobanzhang (LBZ) tea garden with top market prices and displayed the strongest depletion effect on mycobiome association along the soil–tea plant continuum. The balance between determinism and stochasticity in the assembly process was co-driven by compartment niches and life cycle variation. Fungal guild analysis showed that altitude indirectly affected market prices of tea by mediating the abundance of the plant pathogen. The relative importance of plant pathogen and ectomycorrhizae could be used to assess the age of tea. Biomarkers were mainly distributed in soil compartments, and Clavulinopsis miyabeana, Mortierella longata, and Saitozyma sp. may affect the spatiotemporal dynamics of tea-plant mycobiomes and their ecosystem services. Soil properties (mainly total potassium) and tree age indirectly affected the developing leaves via positively influencing the mycobiome of mature leaves. In contrast, the climate directly and significantly drove the mycobiome composition of the developing leaves. Moreover, the proportion of negative correlations in the co-occurrence network positively regulated tea-plant mycobiome assembly, which significantly affected the market prices of tea in the structural equation model with network complexity as hub. These findings indicate that mycobiome signatures play pivotal roles in the adaptive evolution and fungal disease control of tea plants and can help develop better agricultural practices that focus on both plant health and financial profits, and provide a new strategy for assessing tea quality grade and age.

    Abstract In this study, two types of catalysts were prepared by the combination of gemini quaternary ammonium salt with two distinct species of phosphotungstic acid. Catalysts prepared by the Wells-Dawson type of phosphotungstic acid and Keggin-type phosphotungstic acid both exhibited dual-phase catalytic behavior, demonstrating both heterogeneous and homogeneous catalytic activities. In comparison to the catalyst prepared by the Keggin-type phosphotungstic acid, due to the higher size of Wells-Dawson type of phosphotungstic acid, hydrogen bonding could not effectively affect the catalyst prepared by H

    Abstract Improving the selectivity and activity of C₂ species from syngas is still a challenge. In this work, catalysts with monolayer Cu or Rh supported over WC with different surface terminations (M/WC (M = Cu or Rh)) are rationally designed to facilitate C₂ species generation. The complete reaction network is analyzed by DFT calculations. Microkinetics modeling is utilized to consider the experimental reaction temperature, pressure, and the coverage of the species. The thermal stabilities of the M/WC (M = Cu or Rh) catalysts are confirmed by AIMD simulations. The results show that the surface termination and supported metal types in the M/WC (M = Cu or Rh) catalysts can alter the existence form of abundant CHₓ (x = 1–3) monomer, as well as the activity and selectivity of CHₓ monomer and C₂ species. Among these, only the Cu/WC–C catalyst is screened out to achieve outstanding activity and selectivity for C₂H₂ generation, attributing to that the synergistic effect of the subsurface C atoms and the surface monolayer Cu atoms presents the noble-metal-like character to promote the generation of CHₓ and C₂ species. This work demonstrates a new possibility for rational construction of other catalysts with the non-noble metal supported by the metal carbide, adjusting the surface termination of metal carbide and the supported metal types can present the noble-metal-like character to tune catalytic performance of C₂ species from syngas.

    Abstract Oxidative coupling of methane (OCM) is a core chemical process in which methane is directly produced to high-value-added products (ethane and ethylene). The density functional theory (DFT) method was used to study the OCM reaction on IrO₂(110) and M/IrO₂(110) (M = Rh, Pd, and Cu) surfaces to explore catalysts with high activity and C₂ hydrocarbon selectivity. A pure IrO₂(110) surface exhibits high activity, but the C₂ selectivity is low because O₂ is easily adsorbed and dissociated to form Oₐd, which will lead to the formation of the byproduct CO. Therefore, the catalytic performance of IrO₂(110) surfaces doped with second metals (Rh, Pd, and Cu) was investigated. The results show that the doping of Cu and Pd is detrimental to the adsorption and dissociation of O₂ and inhibits the formation of Oₐd. However, Rh doping has no obvious effect. Additionally, charge analysis shows that the doping of metals reduces the transfer of charge from the catalyst surface to the adsorbed O₂ compared to the pure IrO₂(110), which results in the relatively weak adsorption and high dissociation energy of O₂. Moreover, the analysis of reaction rate constants also shows that the dissociation rate of O₂ on Cu/IrO₂(110) at the same temperature is much lower than that on IrO₂(110), Rh/IrO₂(110), and Pd/IrO₂(110) surfaces. It can be seen that the doping of Cu can improve the C₂ hydrocarbon selectivity of the IrO₂ catalyst.

    Abstract Bryophytes play an important role in biogeochemical cycles and functions in forest ecosystems. Global climate changes have led to the population decline of bryophytes; however, the effects of bryophyte loss on the soil organic carbon stock and microbial dynamic remain poorly understood. Here, bryophytes were artificially removed to simulate the loss of bryophytes in two forests in Southwest China, i.e., evergreen broad-leaved forest and temperate coniferous forest. Soil physicochemical properties, microorganisms, and soil organic carbon stocks were analyzed and factors regulating soil organic carbon stocks were explored. Results showed that bryophyte removal significantly decreased soil organic carbon in the coniferous forest but had a negligible effect on the evergreen broad-leaved forest. Bryophyte removal had an insignificant effect on soil properties and microbial PLFAs except that soil nitrogen significantly increased in the 0–10 cm layer in the evergreen broad-leaved forest, while soil temperature and bulk density increased in the coniferous forest in the 0–10 and 10–20 soil layers, respectively. Soil organic carbon stocks increased by 14.06% in the evergreen forest and decreased by 14.39% in the coniferous forest. In the evergreen forest, most soil properties and microorganisms contributed to the change of soil organic carbon stocks, however, only soil organic carbon and depth had significant effects in the coniferous forest. Our findings suggest that soil physiochemical properties and microorganisms regulated the different responses of soil organic carbon stocks after bryophyte removal in the two forests. More research is needed to better understand the effects of understory plants on soil organic carbon stocks in various forest ecosystems.
