    Abstract BACKGROUND: Folic acid supplementation is effective in reducing the risk of neural tube defects (NTDs). However, the use of folic acid is low among rural women in China. Nutrition education can provide information about folic acid and encourage its use. The primary objective of this study was to test the effectiveness of a village‐based nutrition intervention on folic acid use among rural women. METHODS: Sixty villages were randomly selected using multiple‐stage sampling and were divided into control and intervention groups. The intervention included nutritional education at village clinics, written materials, and text messages (SMS). Folic acid use knowledge and behavior was assessed at baseline and after the intervention. RESULTS: Self‐reported compliance with folic acid supplement use increased from 17.0%–29.2% at baseline to 41.7%-59.2% one year post‐intervention. During the same period, the folic acid knowledge score in the intervention group increased from 3.07 to 3.65, significantly higher than the control group (3.11 to 3.35). Multivariate binary logistic regression showed that the women who received folic acid education and SMS intervention were more likely to comply with folic acid supplement recommendations. CONCLUSIONS: The results indicated that an integrated village‐based folic acid education intervention may be an effective way of promoting folic acid use for the prevention of NTDs in rural women.

    Abstract In order to promote the sustainable development of the gulf ecosystem, a regulation method of the gulf ecosystem based on environmental law was proposed. Taking the coastal bay area of Fujian Province as the research object, based on the analysis of the causes of ecosystem degradation, the energy loss of the area was evaluated from three aspects of climate regulation, waste treatment and interference regulation, and the index weight of integrated ecosystem management was determined to complete the evaluation of the bay ecosystem. The results show that from 2016 to 2020, pollution has increased. The proposed comprehensive management and control methods are adopted to control the pollution index of the region within 0.3, so as to maintain a stable downward trend of pollution.

    Abstract Aegiceras corniculatum is an important mangrove plant that mainly grows in tropical and subtropical regions. It has important ecological, economic and social benefits (Bandaranayake 1998). In April 2021, a leaf disease on A. corniculatum was observed in Zhanjiang (21.21° N, 110.41° E), Guangdong province, China. Disease incidence and severity were 15%  and 20% (n = 100 investigated plants), respectively. The disease symptoms on leaves primarily appeared as small brown spots, then enlarged and coalesced into regular or irregular gray necrotic lesions with dark margins. At the late stage of symptom development, black acervuli appeared on the necrotic lesions. Ten symptomatic leaves from 10 plants were collected. Small pieces of tissue (4 × 4 mm) were cut from lesion borders and were surfaced disinfected in 75% ethanol for 30 s, followed by 1 min in 1% NaClO, rinsed three times with sterile water, plated on potato dextrose agar (PDA), and incubated at 28°C. After 7 days, a total of 10 fungal isolates with 100% isolation frequency were obtained and three representative strains (THS-1, THS-2, and THS-3) were used for morphological and molecular characterization. Colonies were white with cottony aerial mycelium and irregular margins. Black viscous acervuli were scattered on the colony surface 10 days after incubation. Conidia were spindle shaped, five cells, four septa, 18.77-28.70 × 4.53-6.80 μm (mean 23.13 × 5.14 μm) in size (n = 50). Basal and apical cells were colorless while the three medium cells were dark brown and lightly versicolor. All conidia had one basal appendage of 3.51-7.27 μm (mean 5.49 μm; n = 50) and two to three apical appendages of 15.80-33.64 μm (mean 25.87 μm; n = 50). These morphological characteristics are consistent with those of Neopestalotiopsis clavispora (Maharachchikumbura et al. 2012). The ITS (OM698813-15), tub2 (OM810165-67) and tef1α (OM810186-88) sequences were 99.38%, 99.09%, and 99.17% identical to the type N. clavispora strain MFLUCC12-0281 (accession nos. JX398979, JX399014, and JX399045) through BLAST analysis, respectively. A phylogenetic tree was generated using the concatenated sequences of ITS, tub2, and tef1α. The result showed that these three isolates were clustered with N. clavispora strains including the type MFLUCC12-0281. To perform pathogenicity tests, 20 healthy potted seedlings of A. corniculatum (2-year-old) were selected. Ten surface-sterilized leaves of 10 seedlings were wounded and inoculated by spraying conidial suspension ( 105 conidia/ml). The same number wounded leaves of the other 10 plants treated with sterile water served as controls. All plants were wrapped in polyethylene bags for 24 h and incubated at 28°C in a growth chamber (at 90% relative humidity). After 10 days, all the inoculated leaves showed similar symptoms to those observed in the field, whereas control leaves were asymptomatic. N. clavispora was reisolated from the lesions in terms of morphology and molecular characterization, whereas no fungus was isolated from the control leaves. The pathogenicity test was repeated three times under the same conditions. Thus, Koch's postulates were fulfilled. This pathogen has been reported on a wide host range worldwide, such as leaf spot on strawberry in China (Zhao et al. 2016) and twig blight on blueberry in Spain (Borrero et al. 2018). This is the first report of N. clavispora causing leaf blight on A. corniculatum in China. This study provides valuable information for the identification and control of the disease.

    Abstract Chinese banyan, Ficus microcarpa Linn. f. (Moraceae), is a native and popular landscape tree with high ornamental  and economic value in South China. In May 2018, a foliar disease occurred on F. Microcarpa in Zhanjiang city (21˚17'51''N, 110˚18'16''E), Guangdong Province, China. The incidence of the disease was 10% and severity was 20% (n = 100 investigated plants). Symptoms first appeared on leaves as small black spots (up to 5 mm diam) with yellow haloes. The spots gradually enlarged in size and coalesced, resulting in necrosis and early shedding of the leaves. Ten symptomatic leaves from 10 plants were collected. The margins of the samples were cut into small pieces (5 × 5 mm), surface disinfected (75% ethanol 30 s, 0.1% HgCl2 45 s, rinsed 3 times with sterile distilled water), and placed on potato dextrose agar (PDA) at 28°C with a photoperiod of 12 h. After 5 days, a total of four isolates with 100% isolation frequency were obtained and three representative strains (T6, T6-1, and T6-2) were used for morphological and molecular characterization. Colonies on PDA were white to gray with cottony mycelia, a few bright orange conidial masses developed near the inoculum point. Conidia were single-celled, smooth-walled, straight, colorless, fusiform with obtuse to slightly rounded ends, and measured 13.2 to 17.5 (avg. 15.3) × 4.3 to 6.0 (avg. 5.2) μm in size (n = 50). Appressoria were oval to irregular in shape, dark brown, and ranged from 5.8 to 9.1 (avg. 7.5) × 4.8 to 6.5 (avg. 5.6) µm (n = 50). Morphological characteristics of the isolates agreed with the description of Colletotrichum siamense (Prihastuti et al. 2009). The ITS (Nos. MK225610, ON979519, ON979520), TUB2 (Nos. MK348533, OQ130408, OQ130409), ACT (Nos. MZ852755, OQ116933, OQ116934) and GAPDH (Nos. MZ852756, OQ130406, OQ130407) sequences were 99.35%, 98.76%, 98.92% and 97.60% identical to the type C. siamense strain MFLU 090230 (accession nos. NR_144784, FJ907438, FJ907423 and FJ972575) through BLAST analysis, respectively. A phylogenetic tree was generated using the concatenated sequences of ITS, ACT, GAPDH and TUB2. The result showed that the 3 isolates were clustered with C. siamense strains including the type MFLU 090230. To perform pathogenicity tests, One leaf (wounded and/or unwounded) per seedling (n = 20, 2-year-old) was inoculated by dropping a 10 ul droplet of the conidial suspension (1 × 105) of isolate T6 or sterile distilled water (as control) at one point, respectively. These plants were wrapped in polyethylene bags for 2 days and incubated in a greenhouse at 28± 2°C with 80-90% relative humidity. Initial symptoms appeared within 5 days on all wounded and unwounded inoculated leaves, while the controls remained symptomless. Colletotrichum siamense was reisolated from the lesions in terms of morphology and molecular characterization, whereas no fungus was isolated from control leaves. The pathogenicity test was repeated three times under the same conditions. The diseases caused by C. siamense have been reported to cause anthracnose in a wide range of hosts (Weir et al. 2012), but not in F. microcarpa. In China, C. gloeosporioides has been reported to cause anthracnose on potted banyan F. microcarpa (Yao et al. 2016), but not C. siamense. This is the first report of C. siamense causing anthracnose on F. microcarpa in China. This study provides valuable information for the identification and control of the anthracnose on F. microcarpa.

    Abstract Principals' distributed leadership plays a critical role in teacher innovativeness; however, research evidence regarding the relationship between them is limited. This study aims at examining the effect of distributed leadership on teacher innovativeness as well as the mediating roles of teacher autonomy and professional collaboration. Using the data of 132,376 teachers derived from the 2018 Teaching and Learning International Survey (TALIS), the study applied a structural equation model (SEM) for analysis. The results revealed that distributed leadership had positive direct effects on teacher innovativeness, teacher autonomy, and professional collaboration. Meanwhile, teacher autonomy and professional collaboration significantly mediated the effect of distributed leadership on teacher innovativeness, respectively. Practical implications are discussed, school leaders are expected to adopt distributed leadership style and establish a supportive school environment, and individual teachers are supposed to cultivate a culture of collectivism and make effective use of autonomy in their teaching innovation.

    Abstract In recent years, the recommendation application of artificial intelligence and deep music has gradually become a research hotspot. As a complex machine learning algorithm, deep learning can extract features with value laws through training samples. The rise of deep learning network will promote the development of artificial intelligence and also provide a new idea for music score recognition. In this paper, the improved deep learning algorithm is applied to the research of music score recognition. Based on the traditional neural network, the attention weight value improved convolutional neural network (CNN) and high execution efficiency deep belief network (DBN) are introduced to realize the feature extraction and intelligent recognition of music score. Taking the feature vector set extracted by CNN-DBN as input set, a feature learning algorithm based on CNN&DBN was established to extract music score. Experiments show that the proposed model in a variety of different types of polyphony music recognition showed more accurate recognition and good performance; the recognition rate of the improved algorithm applied to the soundtrack identification is as high as 98.4%, which is significantly better than those of other classic algorithms, proving that CNN&DBN can achieve better effect in music information retrieval. It provides data support for constructing knowledge graph in music field and indicates that deep learning has great research value in music retrieval field.

    Abstract E2F8 can modulate development and progression of various cancers including cervical cancer, breast cancer and hepatocellular carcinoma. But its mechanism in lung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) remains underexplored. In this study, we conducted a series of experiments including qRT-PCR, western blot, CCK-8, scratch healing assay, Transwell, and flow cytometry. Through these assays, we confirmed the notable overexpression of E2F8 in LUAD and its promoting effects on LUAD cell proliferation, migration and invasion. Subsequently, microRNA-1-3p that was negatively associated with E2F8 expression was identified through bioinformatics analysis. qRT-PCR was then carried out for quantification of microRNA-1-3p expression, which displayed low microRNA-1-3p expression in LUAD cells. In addition, dual-luciferase reporter gene assay was utilized for validating the targeted relationship between microRNA-1-3p and E2F8. The results denoted that microRNA-1-3p could bind to the promoter region of E2F8. Finally, the results of rescue experiment revealed that microRNA-1-3p negatively modulated E2F8 level. It regulated NF-κB pathway to repress LUAD cell proliferative, migratory, and invasive properties, lead to cell cycle arrest in G0/G1 phase, and enhance cell apoptosis level. This study unraveled that microRNA-1-3p/E2F8 constrained LUAD malignant progression through NF-κB pathway, which may provide possible targets for LUAD diagnosis and treatment.

    Abstract Aegiceras corniculatum is an important mangrove plant that mainly grows in tropical and subtropical regions. It has important ecological, economic, and social benefits (Bandaranayake 1998). In April 2021, a leaf disease on A. corniculatum was observed in Zhanjiang (21.21°N, 110.41°E), Guangdong Province, China. Disease incidence and severity were 15 and 20% (n = 100 investigated plants), respectively. The disease symptoms on leaves primarily appeared as small brown spots, which then enlarged and coalesced into regular or irregular gray necrotic lesions with dark margins. At the later stage of symptom development, black acervuli appeared on the necrotic lesions. Ten symptomatic leaves from 10 plants were collected. Small pieces of tissue (4 × 4 mm) were cut from lesion borders, surface disinfected in 75% ethanol for 30 s followed by 1% NaClO for 1 min, rinsed three times with sterile water, plated on potato dextrose agar, and incubated at 28°C. After 7 days, a total of 10 fungal isolates with 100% isolation frequency were obtained, and three representative strains (THS-1, THS-2, and THS-3) were used for morphological and molecular characterization. Colonies were white with cottony aerial mycelium and irregular margins. Black viscous acervuli were scattered on the colony surface 10 days after incubation. Conidia were spindle shaped, with five cells, four septate, and 18.77 to 28.70 × 4.53 to 6.80 μm (mean = 23.13 × 5.14 μm) in size (n = 50). Basal and apical cells were colorless, whereas the three medium cells were dark brown and lightly versicolor. All conidia had one basal appendage of 3.51 to 7.27 μm (mean = 5.49 μm; n = 50) and two to three apical appendages of 15.80 to 33.64 μm (mean = 25.87 μm; n = 50). These morphological characteristics were consistent with those of Neopestalotiopsis clavispora (Maharachchikumbura et al. 2012). The internal transcribed spacer (ITS) (OM698813 to OM698815), beta-tubulin (tub2) (OM810165 to OM810167), and translation elongation factor 1-α (tef1α) (OM810186 to OM810188) sequences were 99.38, 99.09, and 99.17% identical to the N. clavispora type strain MFLUCC12-0281 (accession nos. JX398979, JX399014, and JX399045) through BLAST analysis, respectively. A phylogenetic tree was generated using the concatenated sequences of ITS, tub2, and tef1α. The result showed that these three isolates clustered with N. clavispora strains including the type strain MFLUCC12-0281. To perform pathogenicity tests, 20 healthy potted seedlings of A. corniculatum (2 years old) were selected. Ten surface-sterilized leaves of 10 seedlings were wounded and inoculated by spraying conidial suspension (10⁵ conidia/ml). The same number of wounded leaves of the other 10 plants treated with sterile water served as controls. All plants were wrapped in polyethylene bags for 24 h and incubated at 28°C in a growth chamber (at 90% relative humidity). After 10 days, all the inoculated leaves showed symptoms similar to those observed in the field, whereas the control leaves were asymptomatic. N. clavispora was reisolated from the lesions, and its identity was confirmed by morphology and molecular characterization, whereas no fungus was isolated from the control leaves. The pathogenicity test was repeated three times under the same conditions. Thus, Koch’s postulates were fulfilled. This pathogen has been reported on a wide range of hosts worldwide, such as leaf spot on strawberry in China (Zhao et al. 2016) and twig blight on blueberry in Spain (Borrero et al. 2018). This is the first report of N. clavispora causing leaf blight on A. corniculatum in China. This study provides valuable information for the identification and control of the disease.

    Abstract Chinese banyan, Ficus microcarpa L.f. (family Moraceae), is a native and popular landscape tree with high ornamental and economic value in South China. In May 2018, a foliar disease occurred on F. microcarpa in Zhanjiang City (21°17′51″N, 110°18′16″E), Guangdong Province, China. The incidence of the disease was 10% and the severity was 20% (n = 100 investigated plants). Symptoms first appeared on leaves as small black spots (up to 5 mm diameter) with yellow haloes. The spots gradually enlarged in size and coalesced, resulting in necrosis and early shedding of the leaves. Ten symptomatic leaves from 10 plants were collected. The margins of the samples were cut into small pieces (5 × 5 mm), surface disinfected with 75% ethanol for 30 s and 0.1% HgCl₂ for 45 s, rinsed three times with sterile distilled water, and placed on potato dextrose agar (PDA) at 28°C with a photoperiod of 12 h. After 5 days, a total of four isolates with 100% isolation frequency were obtained, and three representative strains (T6, T6-1, and T6-2) were used for morphological and molecular characterization. Colonies on PDA were white to gray with cottony mycelia, and a few bright orange conidial masses developed near the inoculum point. Conidia were single celled, smooth walled, straight, colorless, and fusiform with obtuse to slightly rounded ends and measured 13.2 to 17.5 (avg. 15.3) × 4.3 to 6.0 (avg. 5.2) μm (n = 50). Appressoria were oval to irregular in shape, dark brown, and 5.8 to 9.1 (avg. 7.5) × 4.8 to 6.5 (avg. 5.6) μm (n = 50). Morphological characteristics of the isolates agreed with the description of Colletotrichum siamense (Prihastuti et al. 2009). The ITS (nos. MK225610, ON979519, and ON979520), TUB2 (nos. MK348533, OQ130408, and OQ130409), ACT (nos. MZ852755, OQ116933, and OQ116934), and GAPDH (nos. MZ852756, OQ130406, and OQ130407) sequences were 99.35, 98.76, 98.92, and 97.60%, respectively, identical to the type C. siamense strain MFLU 090230 (accession nos. NR_144784, FJ907438, FJ907423, and FJ972575) in BLAST analysis. A phylogenetic tree was generated using the concatenated sequences of ITS, ACT, GAPDH, and TUB2. The result showed that the three isolates clustered with C. siamense strains including the type MFLU 090230. To perform pathogenicity tests, one wounded leaf and one unwounded leaf per seedling (n = 20, 2 years old) were inoculated by dropping a 10-μl droplet of the conidial suspension (1 × 10⁵ spores/ml) of the isolate T6 or sterile distilled water (as controls) at one point. These plants were wrapped in polyethylene bags and incubated for 2 days in a greenhouse at 28 ± 2°C with 80 to 90% relative humidity. Initial symptoms appeared within 5 days on all wounded and unwounded inoculated leaves, whereas the controls remained symptomless. C. siamense was reisolated from the lesions in terms of morphology and molecular characterization, whereas no fungus was isolated from the control leaves. The pathogenicity test was repeated three times under the same conditions. C. siamense has been reported to cause anthracnose in a wide range of hosts (Weir et al. 2012), but not in F. microcarpa. In China, C. gloeosporioides has been reported to cause anthracnose on potted banyan F. microcarpa (Yao et al. 2016), but not C. siamense. This is the first report of C. siamense causing anthracnose on F. microcarpa in China. This study provides valuable information for the identification and control of anthracnose on F. microcarpa.
