Soils and sediments of different origins were collected, which included the cropland soils surrounding Dishui Lake, the sediments from rivers, the sediments of wetland and the sediments in Dishui Lake. These samples were used for the experiment of phosphorus isothermal adsorption. The results of this experiment were analyzed and fitted. It shows that, the adsorption-desorption equilibrium mass concentration (EPC(0) value) of the sediments in Dishui Lake (0.11-0.63 mg x L(-1)) is higher than that of the soils and sediments from other sources, which indicates that it is easier to release phosphorus to overlying water. Both the Langmuir model and Freundlich model have a high fitting degree to the isothermal adsorption of phosphorus. The maximum adsorption capacity (Q(m)) calculated by Langmuir model demonstrate that the adsorption capacity of soils and sediments from different sources follows the order: sediments from rivers (1 003.05-2977.65 mg x kg(-1)) > sediments in Dishui Lake (669.77-1 717.94 mg x kg(-1)) > sediments of wetland (368.60-1 145.51 mg x kg(-1)) > cropland soils(441.36-702.30 mg x kg(-). It shows that the adsorption capacity of cropland soils is the weakest. Cropland soils can be a source of phosphorus in Dishui Lake when extra fertilizer is used.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers identified and sequenced the whole genomes of seven uncultured dsDNA bacteriophages in Dishui Lake, the largest artificial lake in Shanghai.
  • The genomic analysis revealed viral auxiliary metabolic genes linked to protein synthesis and host metabolism, indicating a complex interaction with their bacterial hosts.
  • The study advances our understanding of bacteriophage diversity and composition in freshwater ecosystems, suggesting these phages share more genetic similarities with uncultivated environmental viruses than with established reference viruses.

Phytoplankton functional traits can represent particular environmental conditions in complex aquatic ecosystems. Categorizing phytoplankton species into functional groups is challenging and time-consuming, and requires high-level expertise in species autecology. In this study, we introduced an affinity analysis to aid the identification of candidate associations of phytoplankton from two data sets comprised of phytoplankton and environmental information.

Virophages are a group of small double-stranded DNA viruses that infect protist hosts and parasitize the viral factory of host giant/large viruses to propagate. Here, we discover a novel cell-virus-virophage (CVv) tripartite interaction system by using unicellular micro-green algae ( sp.) as eukaryotic hosts for the first time.

Virophages are small parasitic double-stranded DNA (dsDNA) viruses of giant dsDNA viruses infecting unicellular eukaryotes. Except for a few isolated virophages characterized by parasitization mechanisms, features of virophages discovered in metagenomic data sets remain largely unknown. Here, the complete genomes of seven virophages (26.

A Gram-stain-negative, motile with single polar flagellum, rod-shaped bacterium, designated as strain DSL-35, was isolated from the location where the ocean and Dishui lake meet at Shanghai on the East China Sea and characterized phylogenetically and phenotypically. Optimal growth occurred at 35 °C (range, 4-40 °C), pH 8 pH 5-11) and with 3-4 % (w/v) NaCl (0-12 %). Phylogenetic analysis based on its 16S rRNA gene sequence showed that strain DSL-35 was related to members of the genus Marinomonas and shared the highest sequence identities with Marinomonasarctica 328 (98.
