Additionally, we determined the seedling weight, leaf water content, active ingredient content of underground part, and the content of chlorophyll, leaf nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium. The results demonstrated that microorganisms can alleviate stress by enhancing the water retention capacity of S. miltiorrhiza leaves; TD group increased by about 13%, promoting nutrient absorption; and the chlorophyll content of group D increased by about 78%, boosting photosynthetic efficiency and increasing the levels of stress-resistant compounds. We found that bacteria exhibited greater sensitivity to climatic stress factors, with Paenibacillus being significantly enriched only in the stress-treated group.

Microbially mediated Sb(V) reduction performs an important environmental service because it can reduce the mobility of Sb and prevent the transport of Sb to downstream.

In particular, the impact of maternal environmental exposures such as diet and antibiotic use on the establishment of the offspring gut microbiome has been recently highlighted as a potential link to disease risk. However, the long-term effects are poorly understood. Moreover, interindividual host genetic differences have also been implicated in modulating the gut microbiome, suggesting that these differences may modulate susceptibility to environmentally induced dysbiosis and exacerbate related health outcomes. Our understanding of how the developmental environment and genetics interact to modulate offspring long-term gut microbiota and health is still limited.</p><p><strong>Methods: </strong>In this study, we investigated the effects of early exposure to known or putative dietary insults on the microbiome (antibiotic exposure, protein deficiency, and vitamin D deficiency) in a novel population of mice. Dams were maintained on purified AIN93G antibiotic-containing (AC), low-protein (LP), low-vitamin D (LVD), or mouse control (CON) diets from 5 weeks prior to pregnancy until the end of lactation. After weaning, mice were transferred to new cages and fed a standardized chow diet. The parent-of-origin (PO) effect was determined via F1 offspring from reciprocal crosses of recombinant inbred intercross (RIX) of Collaborative Cross (CC) mice, where all F1 offspring within a reciprocal pair were genetically identical except for the X- and Y-chromosomes and mitochondrial genomes. We assayed offspring bodyweight and the gut bacterial microbiota via 16S rRNA gene sequencing at 8 weeks of age.</p><p><strong>Results: </strong>Our study revealed that early developmental exposure to antibiotics, protein deficiency, and vitamin D deficiency had long-lasting effects on offspring bodyweight and gut microbial diversity and composition, depending on the genetic background. Several bacterial genera and ASVs, including Bacteroides, Muribaculaceae, Akkermansia, and Bifidobacterium, are influenced by developmental insults. We also observed a significant effect of PO on offspring gut microbiota and growth. For example, the offspring of CC011xCC001 mice had increased bodyweight, microbial diversity indices, and several differential bacterial abundances, including those of Faecalibaculum, compared with those of the corresponding reciprocal cross CC001xCC011.</p><p><strong>Conclusion: </strong>Our results show that maternal exposure to nutritional deficiencies and antibiotics during gestation and lactation has a lasting impact on offspring gut microbiota composition. The specific responses to a diet or antibiotic can vary among F1 strains and may be driven by maternal genetics.
