To make full use of shark cartilage resources， taking the osteoblasts proliferation rate as an indicator， on the basis of optimizing the enzymatic hydrolysis process of promoting osteoblast proliferation collagen peptides， the relative molecular weight， amino acid composition and stability of the hydrolysates were analyzed in the study. The results showed that acid protease was the optimal protease among all types of protease. Under the conditions of enzyme dosage of 5 100 U·g^-1， solid-liquid ratio of 1∶50 （g·mL^-1）， enzymatic hydrolysis time of 4.14 h and temperature of 55 ℃， the enzymatic hydrolysates yield was 91.23% and the osteoblast proliferation rate and hydrolysis degree of the prepared hydrolysates were 141.23% and 25.03%， respectively. Shark cartilage collagen peptides showed a certain degree of stability and were insensitive to ultraviolet light. Appropriate heating could enhance their osteoblast proliferation rate， but excessively high temperatures led to a significant decrease in osteoblast proliferation rate. After simulated gastrointestinal digestion， the osteoblast proliferation rate of the hydrolysates was significantly decreased. The prepared hydrolysates were mainly composed of hydrophobic amino acids with peptide molecular weights generally less than 3 kDa. They demonstrated the ability to promote osteoblast proliferation， differentiation， and mineralization， with the best effect observed at a concentration of 1.0 mg·mL^-1. This study provides a theoretical basis for the deep processing and high-value utilization of shark resources.

To explore the difference of volatile compounds between the watercore and normal tissue of Qianxuan No.3 apple， and to elucidate the molecular mechanism underlying the formation of characteristic aroma substances in apple watercore， gas chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry （GC-MS/MS） and Illumina HiSeq^TM high-throughput sequencing techniques were conducted to obtain the metabolome and transcriptome data of the watercore and normal tissue of Qianxuan No.3. Transcriptomics analysis revealed 1 795 differentially expressed genes （DEGs）， including 671 down-regulated genes and 1 124 up-regulated genes. Additionally， 7 genes related to fatty acid synthesis pathway and 8 genes related to alcohol dehydrogenase were explored. In this study， 353 metabolites were detected through widely targeted metabolomics， identifying 20 differential accumulated metabolites， including 8 up-regulated metabolites and 12 down-regulated metabolites. Notably， the relative contents of ethyl hexanoate and nonanal in the apple watercore tissue were significantly higher than those in the normal tissue. The transcriptome-metabolomics association analysis illustrated that 11 DEGs were positively correlated with ethyl hexanoate and nonanal， while 2 DEGs were negatively correlated with ethyl hexanoate within fatty acid synthesis pathway and the alcohol dehydrogenase family. MdFAD6， MdADH2， MdADH3， and MdADH4 were found to be expressed exclusively in watercore tissues. Quantitative real-time PCR （qRT-PCR） results showed that the relative expression levels of these genes in watercore tissues were significantly up-regulated compared to those in normal tissues， suggesting that these genes may play a crucial role in the synthesis pathway of volatile compounds in watercore apples. The differential metabolites and genes identified in this study will not only provide preliminary insights into the biological basis of flavor changes in watercore tissues， but also provide reference information for the quality improvement of watercore apples.

Ergothioneine is a naturally accuring active substance found in edible fungi， known for its antioxidant and metal chelating functions. In order to further explore and improve the yield of ergothioneine produced through biological fermentation， this study used ultraviolet mutagenesis （UV）， ethyl methylsulfonate mutagenesis （EMS） and space mutagenesis （SFM） to mutate strains of the Pleurotus Citrinopileatus. The mycelial growth rate and liquid fermentation yield of ergothioneine were used as evaluation indicators to select high-yield straits of Pleurotus Citrinopileatus. The results showed that 46， 40 and 48 mutant strains were obtained through UV， EMS and SFM mutagenesis， respectively. The positive mutation rate for UV mutagenesis was 43.48%. UV， EMS and SFM mutagenesis resulted in 8， 3 and 1 strain of liquid-fermented ergothioneine， respectively， with significantly higher yields than the original strain （P<0.01）. Among the 12 high-yielding ergothioneine mutagenic strains， the yield of the UV-30 strain was the highest， at 2.16 times that of the original strain， while the growth rate of the UV-13 strain was the fastest， at 1.02 times that of the original strain. Genetic distance analysis showed that the mutation degree of the SFM mutant strain was higher than that of the UV mutant strain， and both strains exhibited a higher mutation degree of both strains the EMS mutant strain. The results of this study contribute valuable material for the fundamental research of the ergothioneine biosynthesis pathway and provide a reference for the mutagenesis and breeding of the high yield ergothioneine strain of Pleurotus Citrinopileatus.

As the secondary metabolites produced by fungi， mycotoxins possess stable chemical structures and can accumulate in the food chain. Mycotoxins pose severe threats to human and animal health causing significant economic losses. The biodegradation method using enzyme has shown great potential in detoxifying mycotoxins due to high safety and environmental friendliness. This review systematically summarized the discovery and functional analysis of degradation enzymes against major mycotoxins， including aflatoxins， zearalenone， trichothecenes， ochratoxin A， and fumonisins. We focued on the progress made in elucidating the three-dimensional structures of mycotoxin-degrading enzymes using X-ray crystallography and others methods， revealing their catalytic mechanisms. The computationally predicted binding pockets and the experimentally determined active sites were compared. Moreover， we elaborated on applying rational design strategies based on protein structures in modifying mycotoxin-degrading enzymes. The immense potential of using computational biology to predict protein structures and functions， elucidate enzyme mechanisms， and guide the design of degradation enzymes were also discussed. This review provided new perspectives for tackling mycotoxin contamination in food and feed.

PYR/PYL/RCAR （PYL）proteins serve as direct receptors for abscisic acid （ABA） and play a crucial regulatory role in the ABA signaling pathway. To explore the phylogenetic relationships and expression patterns of PYL genes in tobacco， the complete genome of a common tobacco variety K326 was identified and analyzed with bioinformatics tools. The expression levels of each gene under drought stress conditions at 0， 1， 3， 6， 12， 24 and 48 h were determined by quantitative real-time PCR （qRT-PCR）. The results showed that 26 NtPYL genes were identified and categorized into three subfamilies（‍Ⅰ‍‍-‍Ⅲ‍） based on phylogenetic and structural features， with member counts of 9， 11 and 6， respectively. Physicochemical analysis of the proteins revealed that all tobaccoPYL proteins are hydrophilic， with amino acid lengths ranging form 173 to 586 aa， relative molecular weights between 16 763.26 and 65 709.39 Da， and isoelectric points （pI） between 4.73 and 9.05. Functional motif analysis identified MYB， NAC， WARKY， TCP， ZF-HD， and other stress-responsive elements in the promoter regions of tobacco PYL genes. Gene expression analysis demonstrated that the overall expression trend of tobacco PYL genes， with the exception of NtPYL8， NtPYL9， NtPYL17， and NtPYL21， was upregulated under drought stress. However， significant differences in gene expression were observed among members of different subfamilies. Notably， NtPYL1， NtPYL2， and NtPYL4 in subfamily Ⅱ， as well as NtPYL25 in subfamily Ⅲ， exhibited their highest expression levels at 6 to 12 hours after drought stress， showing a significant increase in relative expression compared to that at 0 h. These genes can be considered crucial candidates for drought stress response. This study lays a foundation for further investigation into the functional roles of candidate drought-resistant PYL genes in tobacco and their potential applications in breeding.

In order to screen the suitable combinations of high-yield lodging resistance index in ultra-late sown wheat in northern Xinjiang， the microstructural characteristics of the basal internodes of wheat and its correlation with lodging resistance index were investigated. A split plot experiment was used， the main plot was set with three ultra-late sowing dates： S1 （October 25th）， S2 （November 4th）， and S3 （November 14th）， and the sub plot was set with four sowing rates： P1 （337.5 kg·hm^-2）， P2 （450 kg·hm^-2）， P3 （562.5 kg·hm^-2）， and P4 （675 kg·hm^-2）， using the local suitable sowing date and rate （September 25th， 270 kg·hm^-2） as the control （CK）. The effects of sowing date and rate on the microstructure， lodging resistance index and yield of basal internodes during the flowering， milky and wax ripening stages of ultra-late sown wheat were studied. The results showed that， after wheat flowering， the lodging resistance index of wheat gradually decreased with growth， and the microstructure quality of basal internodes from bottom to top deteriorated， with consistent change in the 1^st， 2^nd， and 3^rd internodes. Compared with CK， the microstructure indicators （the number of mechanical tissue layers and thin-walled tissue layers， the thickness of mechanical tissue and thin-walled tissue， the number of large vascular bundles and the number of large vascular bundles， the circumference and area of large vascular bundles） of ultra-late sown wheat stem had decreased， and the microscopic structure had become smaller， and the lodging resistance ability decreased. The microstructure and lodging resistance index of wheat basal stem at the same sowing rate and different sowing dates were all S3>S1>S2. Under the same sowing date， as the sowing amount increased， the microstructure indicators and lodging resistance index decrease. There was no interaction effect between sowing date and sowing rate on various indicators. The lodging resistance index was significantly negatively correlated with the number of small vascular bundles in the basal internodes， and significantly positively correlated with other microstructural indicators， with thin-walled tissue had the highest effect on improving wheat lodging resistance. Increasing the sowing rate of wheat under ultra-late sown conditions was beneficial for increasing the number of spikes， compensating for the loss of grain number and thousand grain weight per spike， thereby improving yield. S2P2 had the highest number of spikes and the highest yield. Thus， sowing 450 kg·hm^-2 of ultra-late sown wheat in northern Xinjiang on November 4th could achieve high yield， while also considering lodging resistance. The results of this study provide a certain theoretical basis for stable and high yield of ultra-late sown wheat.

In order to explore the effects of satellite carrying on the agronomic traits of wheat， high molecular weight glutenin subunits （HMW-GS） and molecular level variations， the SP₃ agronomic traits variation of Zhoumai 18， Zhoumai 22 and Wennong 14 dry seeds carried by the SJ-10 satellite were examined， and SDS-PAGE technology and simple sequence repeat （SSR） molecular marker technology were used to identify and analyze the polymorphism of HMW-GS and SSR molecular markers in the SP₅ mutant lines. The results showed that there were significant differences in the agronomic traits between the SP₃ generation and its wild type， and different wheat varieties had different sensitivities to the space environment. Space flight generated variations in HMW-GS and genomic DNA. The mutation frequencies of HMW-GS in three wheat varieties were 2.15%， 3.66% and 5.21%， respectively， with Wennong 14 having the highest mutation frequency. Polymorphic detection of 21 SSR molecular markers showed that the number of differential markers between the space-induced mutants of Zhoumai 18 and Zhoumai 22 and their wild-type was less than 2， whereas the number of differential markers between the space-induced mutants of Wennong 14 and their wild-type was greater， and the traits such as plant height and panicle type were genetically distinct. In summary， space mutation can induce variations in wheat genome and proteome， and the excellent mutants obtained can serve as valuable resources for the genetic improvement of wheat and for the research and utilization of functional genes.

In order to obtain the basic mechanical properties parameters of apple fruit and fruit stem， the puncture mechanical parameters of different parts of Granny Smith， Luochuan Fuji， Linyi Fuji， and Huaguan apple， as well as the stem tensile and stem shear mechanical parameters were measured using the biomechanical tester. The critical torque of separating the apple from the branch was obtained using a self-made torsion device. The maximum tensile force of the stem was measured using a digital tension meter in orchards. The static and dynamic friction coefficients of apple with different materials were tested by friction test device. The results indicated that there were significant differences in the actual transverse diameter and weight of apples from different varieties. The distribution of transverse diameter was basically consistent with the normal distribution. There were significant differences in the puncture mechanical properties of apples between varieties and puncture sites. The maximum puncture force from large to small was the bottom， the top， and the equator， indicating that the apple was not isotropic. The maximum tensile force and the tensile stress increased with the increase of the tensile speed. The maximum tensile force measured by laboratory and field tensile tests was 30.95 and 30.03 N， respectively. And the location of the tensile fracture of stem was obtained through the experiment. The shear force range of the middle part and the upper part of stem was 43.44-81.61 and 46.18-103.87 N， respectively. The maximum torque of Fuji and Huaguan apple was 0.373 and 0.364 N·m， respectively. The static friction coefficients of apple equator with silica gel， stainless steel， organic glass and rubber are 1.000， 0.332， 0.696 and 1.026， respectively. The research results provide basic parameters for the research of intelligent apple picking machinery and related machinery.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of different fertilization patterns on soil available nitrogen （N） supply during the soybean growing season in fluvo-aquic soil area. Based on a 33-year long-term fertilization experiment， four fertilization treatments were selected： no fertilization （CK）， NPK fertilizer （NPK）， NPK fertilizer combined with soybean/peanut straw （SNPK）， and NPK fertilizer combined with organic fertilizer （MNPK）， and the dynamic changes in soil ammonium N （NH₄⁺-N）， nitrate N （NO₃^--N）， microbial biomass N （MBN）， and dissolved organic N （DON） during the soybean growing season were analyzed. Additionally， organic N mineralizing enzyme activities， soil ammonification intensity， and potential nitrification rate， which involved in soil N transformation， were analyzed. The results showed that the SNPK or MNPK could increase the concentrations of soil total N， organic carbon （C）， microbial biomass C， and dissolved organic C. The increases promoted the activities of urease， amidase， protease， N-acetyl-β-D-glucosidase， as well as the ammonification intensity and potential nitrification rate. Soil NH₄⁺-N content was extremely significantly positively correlated with the activities of urease and protease， and significantly positively correlated with amidase activity. Meanwhile， soil NO₃^--N content showed an extremely significant positive correlation with ammonification intensity and potential nitrification rate. Higher levels of MBN and DON were observed under SNPK and MNPK treatments compared to NPK and CK treatments. There was a significant positive correlation between the dynamics of DON content and soybean shoot N uptake， and which ultimately affected the growth of soybean. At maturity， the aboveground biomass of soybean under SNPK and MNPK treatments was higher compared to CK and NPK treatments. In conclusion， SNPK or MNPK could positively regulate the intensity of soil N transformation microorganisms and enzyme activities by increasing the concentrations of soil total N， organic C and labile organic C. This， in turn， enhanced soil available N supply capacity and promoted the soybean growth. The results of this study provide a theoretical basis for rational fertilization practices in typical fluvo-aquic soil area.

Wheat high-molecular-weight glutenin subunits （HMW-GS） is a key protein component affecting noodles quality， among which the subunits encoded by Glu-D1 locus have the greatest contribution to the quality of dough and flour products. To clarify the effects of different HMW-GSs at Glu-D1 locus on the quality of different noodle products， four BC₆F₄ generation wheat HMW-GS near-isogenic lines with different subunits， 2+12， 3+12， 4+12 or 5+10， at Glu-D1 locus were developed under the genetic background of Xiaoyan 22 and used to compare their different performances on the quality of fresh noodles， Chinese dried noodles （CDN） and frozen cooked noodles （FCN）. The results showed that compared with others subunits， the fresh noodles containing 3+12 subunits had better cooking water absorption and lower cooking loss， and the hardness， elasticity， resilience， and chewiness of the noodles were better. Compared with others subunits， CDN with subunits 3+12 had shorter cooking time， higher water absorption and lower cooking loss， while CDN containing 2+12 subunits had the moderate hardness and chewiness， lower adhesiveness， and higher resilience. Compared with others subunits， FCN containing subunits 3+12 or 2+12 showed better frozen storage stability， and FCN containing 3+12 subunits had moderate hardness， higher chewiness， and better texture characteristics. These findings can provide references for varietal breeding， raw grain selection and tailored flour development of different noodles.

This study aimed to clarify the impact of long term fertilization on soil N index and the quantitative relationship between soil N index and crop yield in typical fluvo-aquic soil area. Based on a long-term fertilization experiment， this study was conducted to systematically evaluate the effects of long term fertilization on the concentrations of soil total N （TN）， alkali hydrolyzed N （AN）， acid hydrolysable organic N fractions， microbial biomass N （MBN）. Furtherly， quantitative relationship between soil N index and wheat and maize yield was investigated. The results showed that long-term combined application of chemical fertilizer and straw or organic fertilizer not only significantly increased soil TN content， but also increased the concentrations of AN， total acid hydrolysable N （AHN）， hydrolysable ammonium N （HAN）， amino acid N （AAN）， and MBN， compared to chemical fertilizer or without fertilizer. It was also found that there was no significant difference in the concentrations of the soil N indexes （except TN）， among the combined application of high rate chemical fertilizer and organic fertilizer， the combined application of normal rate chemical fertilizer and straw， and the combined application of chemical fertilizer and organic fertilizer. TN， MBN and AN were relatively important N indexes for crop yield. Specifically， with the increasing of TN content by 0.1 g·kg^-1， the wheat and maize yield increased 822.7 and 968.2 kg·hm^-2. Furthermore， with the increasing of MBN and AN by 1 mg·kg^-1， the wheat yield increased 195.2 and 58.1 kg·hm^-2， and the maize yield increased 189.9 and 79.1 kg·hm^-2. AHN and AAN also had significant influence on wheat yield. It was observed that with the increasing of AHN and AAN by 1 mg·kg^-1， the wheat yield increased 15.8 and 30.0 kg·hm^-2， respectively. Overall， the combined application of chemical fertilizer and straw or organic fertilizer can improve soil N storage and supply capacity. The yield of wheat and maize exhibited a linear increase with the enhancement of TN， MBN， and AN. And a significant positive correlation was also observed between wheat yield and the concentrations of AHN and AAN. This study provides theoretical basis and technical support for enhancing soil fertility and achieving high grain yields in the typical fluvo-aquic soil area.

This study aims to provide a theoretical basis for further research as well as the practical application of organic mulch in vineyards， and to suggest future research directions and application prospects.

To study the effect of electron beam irradiation on the quality of Salvia miltiorrhiza， this study treated Salvia miltiorrhiza samples with irradiation doses of 2， 4， 6， 8， 10， 12， 14， 16 and 18 kGy， respectively. and compared the microbial level， 8 compounds content and antioxidant activity of Salvia miltiorrhiza at different doses. The optimal safe dose was determined by orthogonal partial least square discriminant analysis model. The fingerprints of Salvia miltiorrhiza before and after irradiation were established to determine the chemical composition consistency. Six batches of salvia miltiorrhiza were selected to verify the optimal safe irradiation dose. The results showed that the microbial level was in line with the pharmacopoeia standard of the People’s Republic of China Pharmacopoeia 2020 Edition No. 4 when the irradiation dose of Salvia miltiorrhiza electron beam sterilization reached 10 kGy or above，. The total content of 8 compounds of salviorrhiza was within 10 kGy， and there was no significant difference between the irradiation group and the control group. There were no significant differences in the antioxidant activities of the 4 kinds at the dose of 10 kGy， and the antioxidant activities of the 10 kGy dose group were the closest to the control group. In conclusion， 10 kGy was the best safe irradiation dose for Salvia miltiorrhiza electron beam sterilization. The similarity of fingerprints of Salvia miltiorrhiza by high performance liquid chromatography （HPLC） and Raman spectroscopy （SERS） before and after irradiation was greater than 0.9 indicating good consistency of chemical components. After 6 batches of Salvia miltiorrhiza were sterilized by 10 kGy， the microbial levels were in line with pharmacopoeia regulations. There were no significant differences in the contents of 8 compounds， antioxidant activity and survival rate of hepatic stellate cells （HSC-T6） by t test. The results of this study can provide scientific basis for the application of electron beam irradiation sterilization technology in the production and quality evaluation of Salvia miltiorrhiza.

This study aims to establish the technical system of in vitro induction and identification of Anthurium andraeanum tetraploids， laying the foundation for ploidy breeding and hybrid breeding. Trenza calluses were used as materials to be treated with 0.5， 1.0， 2.0 and 4.0 g·L^-1 of colchicine for 2， 4， 6 and 8 h， respectively. Afterwards， the calluses were transferred to medium MS + 6-BA 2.0 mg·L^-1+NAA 0.5 mg·L^-1 for growth and clumped shoot differentiation. After 75 d， the clumped shoots were transferred to medium 1/2 MS+NAA 0.2 mg·L^-1 to induce rooting. Subsequently， the survival rate of the callus blocks and the number of regenerated plants were counted， and chromosome ploidy identification and karyotype analysis were performed on the regenerated plants. The results showed that with the increase of colchicine concentration， the survival rate of Anthurium andraeanum callus block showed a decreasing trend， but there was no significant change in the number of regenerated plants induced on the callus block. Within the concentration range of 0.5 to 2.0 g·L^-1， the induction rate of suspected tetraploid of the Anthurium andraeanum increased with the increase of the treatment concentration and the time， and the induction rate reached 8.50% and 8.77% when treated with 2.0 g·L^-1 colchicine for 6 and 8 h. The genomes of Turenza and suspected tetraploid Anthurium andraeanum were 3.73 and 7.01 Gb， respectively. The results of chromosome ploidy identification confirmed that the suspected tetraploid was indeed tetraploid. The karyotype formula for Anthurium andraeanum diploid was 2n=2x=30=8 st+16 sm+6 m and that for tetraploid was 2n=4x=60=8 st+32 sm+20 m. Significant differences were observed in thicker leaf blades， larger stomata， lower density of guard cells， larger spathe diameters and longer flowering period of individual inflorescences in tetraploid plants as compared to Anthurium andraeanum diploid plants. In summary， treatment with 2.0 g·L^-1 colchicine for 6 h can cultivate tetraploid plants of Anthurium andraeanum， which can be serve as an important germplasm resource for ploidy breeding and cross breeding of Anthurium andraeanum.

Fusarium crown and root rot （FCRR） of tomato （Solanum esculentum） is one of the most damaging soil-borne diseases affecting tomatoes in recent year， significantly impacting both the quality and yield of tomato. To explore candidate genes associated with resistance to FCRR in tomatoes， a genome-wide association study （GWAS） combined with genetic mapping was used. A total of 200 tomato materials from around the world were used for the GWAS， leading to the identification of a major locus associated with the resistance to FCRR on tomato chromosome 9. A genetic linkage map was constructed using a parental population derived from a cross between the resistant line KP13 and the susceptible line T15196. Based on the results of the GWAS and linkage mapping， the resistance locus （Frl） was mapped between the markers FrlSNP20 and SSR105， with a genetic distance of approximately 0.8 cM and a physical distance of about 93 kb. Four candidate genes belonging to the tomato glutathione S-transferase （SlGST） gene family were identified， including Solyc09g011510.2.1， Solyc09g011580.2.1， Solyc09g011600.2.1 and Solyc09g011630.2.1. The FrlSNP25 marker， which is tightly linked to the resistance of FCRR， was obtained and used to identify the resistance of 94 tomato accessions. The concordance rate between genotypic and phenotypic resistance was 92.55% for Fusarium crown and root rot. This study lays a foundation for the innovation of tomato germplasm and the understanding of resistance mechanisms in tomato against Fusarium crown and root rot.

To explore the effect of the ASIP gene and recombinant ASIP protein on lipid deposition in goat， gene cloning， quantitative real-time PCR （qRT-PCR）， and Oil-Red-O staining were used as methods， tissues and cultured adipocytes of Boer crossed goat （BZ） and Youzhou dark goat （YZ） were taken as materials. The expression pattern of the ASIP gene in both tissues and differentiated adipocytes was characterized， and the expression levels of key lipogenesis genes in adipose and muscle tissues in BZ and YZ were also detected. Furthermore， the effects of recombinant ASIP protein on lipid droplet formation and the expression levels of lipogenesis genes during goat adipocyte differentiation were examined. The results showed that the ASIP gene was widely expressed in goat tissues， with the highest expression levels in kidneys and white adipose tissue. The expression level of the ASIP gene significantly increased on day 6 of goat adipocyte differentiation （P<0.05） and reached the highest on day 8 （P<0.05）. The expression levels of PPARG， LEPTIN， and ATRN genes in YZ adipose were significantly higher than those in BZ （P<0.05）. The expression level of PPARG， FASN， and ATRN genes in BZ muscle was significantly higher than those in YZ （P<0.05）. While the expression levels of FABP4 and SREBP1 genes did not show a significant difference between YZ and BZ. Recombinant ASIP protein evidently induced the formation of fat droplets during adipocyte differentiation on day 8， significantly increased the content of intracellular triglyceride （TG） （P<0.05）， and significantly upregulated the expression levels of essential lipogenesis genes （PPARG， LEPTIN， FASN， FABP4， SREBP1， ATRN） in goat adipocytes. In conclusion， ASIP gene and the recombinant ASIP protein probably have a positive effects on goat fat deposition. This study provides a theoretical basis for further revealing the mechanisms by which the ASIP gene influences fat deposition in goat.
