[Identification and expression of genome of uridine diphosphate glycosyltransferase (UGT) gene family from Chrysanthemum indicum].

Uridine diphosphate glycosyltransferase(UGT) is involved in the glycosylation of a variety of secondary metabolites in plants and plays an important role in plant growth and development and regulation of secondary metabolism. Based on the genome of a diploid Chrysanthemum indicum, the UGT gene family from Ch. indicum was identified by bioinformatics methods, and the physical and chemical properties, subcellular localization prediction, conserved motif, phylogeny, chromosome location, gene structure, and gene replication events of UGT protein were analyzed.

[Hydrochemistry Characteristics and Estimation of the Dissolved Inorganic Carbon Flux in the Caohai Lake Wetland Catchment of Guizhou Province].

The Caohai Lake wetland in Weining County, Guizhou Province, is the largest karst wetland in China, and karst groundwater is an essential source of recharge and material. This study collected groundwater from the Caohai Lake catchment during the wet season, dry season, and flat season, and the main ion components of the groundwater were analyzed. The hydrochemistry characteristics and main ion sources of the groundwater were revealed, and the preliminary estimates of the karst carbon sink flux in the Caohai Lake catchment were calculated based on the solute load method.

Hepatic lipid metabolomics in response to heat stress in local broiler chickens breed (Huaixiang chickens).

High-temperature environment-induced heat stress (HS) is a hazard environmental element for animals, leading to dramatic changes in physiological and metabolic function. However, the metabolomic-level mechanisms underlying lipid metabolism in liver of slow-growing broilers are still obscure. The present study investigated the effects of HS on hepatic lipidomics in Chinese indigenous slow-growing broilers (Huaixiang chickens).
