This study comprehensively investigated two bamboo species (i.e. Neosinocalamus affinis and Phyllostachys edulis) in terms of their cell wall ultrastructure, chemical compositions, enzymatic saccharification, and lignin structure before and after alkaline hydrogen peroxide pretreatment (AHP). During AHP, Neosinocalamus affinis (NAB) had higher delignification than Phyllostachys edulis (PEB), and thus showed better enzymatic digestibility (93.05% vs 53.57% for glucan). The fundamental chemical behavior of the bamboo lignins was analyzed by fluorescence microscope (FM), confocal Raman microscope (CRM), molecular weight analysis, and 2D HSQC-NMR. Results indicated that the PEB has thicker cell wall and more concentrated lignin in its compound middle lamella and cell corner middle lamella than NAB. Moreover, PEB lignin contains more G units (S/G of 0.95), in evident contrast to that of NAB lignin (S/G of 1.30), which favor the formation of C-C linkages, thus impeding its degradation during the AHP.

Unlabelled: The rapid growth of Bamboo made the uptake and allocation of nitrogen much important. Nitrate is the main form that plant utilized nitrogen by nitrate transporters (NRTs) as well as ammonium salt. In this study, we identified 155 genes which mapped to 32 chromosomes out of 35 chromosomes in .

The abiotic stress tolerance mechanism in plants is regulated by multiple physiological, biochemical, and molecular processes; hence, omics approaches to underpin these mechanisms are essential. It is clear that transcription factors (TFs) are one of the fundamental molecular switches that play a crucial role in modulating, regulating, and orchestrating plants in response to various climatic vagaries. Several reports are available now, focusing on understanding the roles of TFs, including those in Poaceae family in regulating different biological processes and stress responses.

Three species of the spider family Philodromidae are reported from the south of China. A new genus, , is described from Jiangxi, Fujian, and Hunan Provinces. It can be distinguished from other genera of Philodromidae by the tegular apophysis of the palp and the cymbial process, as well as by its uniquely striped abdomen.

Plants play a key role in the ecological restoration of urban wetlands. Previous studies have shown that heavy-metal accumulation capacities and adaptation strategies of wetland plants may be related to their life forms. In this study, pot experiments were conducted to investigate the effects of nitrogen (N) on the adaptation strategies of two evergreen and deciduous aquatic iris life forms under cadmium (Cd) stress.

is an important genus in the Apiosporaceae family with a worldwide distribution. They exhibit different lifestyles including pathogenic, saprophytic, and endophytic. In this study, we aimed to explore the associated with bamboo and collected 14 apiospora-like taxa from the forests of Yunnan Province, China.
