At present, there is an increasing demand in regulating human sub-health through functional foods. <em>Agriophyllum squarrosum</em> (L.) Moq., a pioneer plant native to sand dunes with ecological restoration function, is a traditional food plant of sand regions and Mongolian folk medicine. Numerous studies have confirmed that <em>A. squarrosum</em> seed, also called sand rice, has high nutritional value. However, the long-term health effects of eating sand rice remain unclear. To better explore and evaluate its long-term effects, hereby, ICR mice were fed with sand rice flour at different ratios (control, 60% and 95%) for 100 days. Results show that the growth and blood glucose level curve of these experimental mice were lower and more stable than that of the control. In addition, mice fed pure sand rice ingredient (95%) gained more stable body weight and blood glucose after 28 days, which revealed that sand rice is a food with comprehensive nutritional value and rarely negatively impacts the body growth performance. Our data also demonstrates that, the content of triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C) and high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) provided the lowest level in the blood of mice with a diet of pure sand rice ingredient, 0.48, 4.14, 0.91, 3.03 mmol/L, respectively. Also, T-SOD and GSH-PX activity provided a high level in mice with pure sand rice gradient, which significantly increased by 36% (T-SOD) and 19% (GSH-PX) compared to the control. These results suggest that long term intake of the pure sand rice ingredients is more helpful for stabilizing blood lipid and improve antioxidant capacity and beneficial to people suffering from chronic disease. This study supplies the first animal evidence to support the claim that sand rice is a promising functional food with comprehensive nutrition in the future. We are confident that, with increasing demands of daily sand rice usage, planting <em>A. squarrosum</em> in the vast desert regions will further increase the local economy and ecological restoration when coping with global warming.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":53163,"journal":{"name":"Research in Cold and Arid Regions","volume":"15 2","pages":"Pages 105-112"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48098363","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Identifying sensitive parameters among all photosynthetic parameters before parameter estimation can not only reduce operation cost, but also improve the usability of photosynthesis models worldwide. Here, we analyzed 13 parameters of a biochemically-based photosynthesis model (FvCB), implemented in many LSMs, using two sensitivity analysis (SA) methods (<em>i.e.</em>, the Sobol’ method and the Morris method) for setting up the parameter ensemble. Three different model performance metrics, <em>i.e.</em>, Root Mean Squared Error (<em>RMSE</em>), Nash Sutcliffe efficiency (<em>NSE</em>), and Standard Deviation (<em>STDEV</em>) were introduced for model assessment and sensitive parameters identification. The results showed that among all photosynthetic parameters only a small portion of parameters were sensitive, and the sensitive parameters were different across plant functional types: maximum rate of Rubisco activity (<em>V</em><sub><em>c</em>max25</sub>), maximum electron transport rate (<em>J</em><sub>max25</sub>), triose phosphate use rate (<em>TPU</em>) and dark respiration in light (<em>R</em><sub><em>d</em></sub>) were sensitive in broad leaf-evergreen trees (BET), broad leaf-deciduous trees (BDT) and needle leaf-evergreen trees (NET), while only <em>V</em><sub><em>c</em>max25</sub> and <em>TPU</em> are sensitive in short vegetation (SV), dwarf trees and shrubs (DTS), and agriculture and grassland (AG). The two sensitivity analysis methods suggested a strong SA coherence; in contrast, different model performance metrics led to different SA results.

Furthermore, climate anomalies related to extreme vegetation fires were explored. The main results showed that the region south of the Arctic circle (50°N−67°N) experienced a greater number of vegetation fires compared to the Arctic (north of 67°N). During 2001–2020, interannual variability of vegetation fires between 50°N and 67°N appeared to be decreasing while emissions (including carbon, dry matter, PM<sub>2.5</sub>, and BC) appeared to be increasing overall, which were contributed by the increasing summer boreal forest fires in this region largely. In the Arctic, vegetation fires and emissions increased in recent years distinctly, and those were dominated by the summer forest fires.

The test results show that when the confining pressure is less than 1 MPa, the frozen saline silty clay is dominated by brittle behavior with the X-shaped dilatancy failure mode. As the confining pressure increases, the sample gradually transitions from brittle to plastic behavior. The strength of frozen saline silty clay rises first and then decreases with increasing confining pressure. The improved Duncan-Chang hyperbolic model can describe the stress-strain relationship of frozen saline silty clay. And the parabolic strength criterion can be used to describe the strength evolution of frozen saline silty clay. The function relation of strength parameters with temperature is obtained by fitting, and the results of the parabolic strength criterion are in good agreement with the experimental results, especially when confining pressure is less than 5 MPa.

This favors species of a wet environment in a habitat where it was a relatively dry environment of alpine steppe prior to the occurrence of RTS.

Arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) have the potential to improve the salt tolerance of plants and their adaptation to saline soil environments. In this study, the effects of single and combined inoculations of AMF (<em>Glomus mosseae</em>) and PGPR (<em>Bacillus amyloliquefaciens</em> FZB42) on <em>N. tangutorum</em> were evaluated in severe saline soil conditions. The results indicate that AMF and PGPR alone may not adapt well to the real soil environment, and cannot ensure the effect of either growth promotion or salt-tolerance induction on <em>N. tangutorum</em> seedlings. However, the combination of AMF and PGPR significantly promoted mycorrhizal colonization, increased biomass accumulation, improved morphological development, enhanced photosynthetic performance, stomatal adjustment ability, and the exchange of water and gas. Co-inoculation also significantly counteracted the adverse effect of salinity on the soil structure of <em>N. tangutorum</em> seedlings. It is concluded that the effectiveness of microbial inoculation on the salt tolerance of <em>N. tangutorum</em> seedlings depends on the functional compatibility between plants and microorganisms as well as the specific combinations of AMF and PGPR.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":53163,"journal":{"name":"Research in Cold and Arid Regions","volume":"14 6","pages":"Pages 393-402"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-12-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2097158323000083/pdfft?md5=01dc3ef21c5ba6f9ffd3e4c98dda6b62&pid=1-s2.0-S2097158323000083-main.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48191301","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"地球科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
