RESUMEN
Epimedium sagittatum is a collective term for herbaceous plants belonging to the family Berberidaceae. Their dried leaves and stems have significant therapeutic effects on tumor inhibition, hypertension control, and coronary heart disease (Ke et al. 2023; Zhao et al. 2019). In 2021 and 2022, plants with similar leaf rot symptoms ranging from 30% to 55% was observed on E. sagittatum in Congjiang County, Guizhou province. The initial symptoms of the disease manifest locally on the leaf, with yellowing on the surface edge of the affected tissue, browning in the middle part, and brown-white discoloration in the innermost part (Supplementary Figure S1B). As the disease progresses, the entire infected leaf gradually softens, while the veins remain intact (Supplementary Figure S1C). Ultimately, the leaf withers and dehisces. The nine samples with typical symptoms were collected from Congjiang County, Guizhou province (26.598°N, 106.707°E). Twenty-seven fungi were isolated, including ten isolates of Rhizopus and seventeen isolates of seven other genera. On isolate YYH-CJ-17 many sporangia were formed and turned to a brown-gray to black color on potato dextrose agar medium (PDA) after culturing 5 days under dark at 25 â (Supplementary Figure S2A and S2B). The branches of mycelium were finger-shaped or root-shaped. The sporangium was spherical or nearly spherical, 60-250 µm in diameter, and sporangiospores were elliptical or spherical and 4-8 µm in diameter. The obtained 547 bp ITS fragment (accession OR225970) and 1231 bp EF-1α region (accession OR242258) from isolate YYH-CJ-17 were compared with NR database using the BLAST tool provided by NCBI, which revealed more than 99.5% identity (query cover more than 98%) with the sequences of ITS (accessions MF522822.1) and EF-1α (accession AB281541.1) of Rhizopus oryzae Went & H.C. Prinsen Geerlings (Gao et al. 2022; Zhang et al. 2022). The phylogenetic tree constructed with the ITS and EF-1α gene sequences demonstrates that strain YYH-CJ-17 clusters with R. oryzae in the same branch and the bootstrap value was greater than 99% (Supplementary Figure S3). Based on the morphological characteristics and ITS and EF-1a sequences, the isolate YYH-CJ-17 is identified as R. oryzae. Pathogenicity tests were performed on detached healthy leaves and living plants of E. sagittatum. Healthy leaves of E. sagittatum were subjected to inoculation with isolate YYH-CJ-17 with 5 × 105 CFU mL-1 concentration in sterile culture dishes. The progression of the disease was marked by the gradual softening of the infected leaves and the expansion of the lesions, which ultimately produced black-brown sporangium (Supplementary Figure S4A). Furthermore, the E. sagittatum living plants were sprayed with 5 × 105 CFU mL-1 conidial suspension of isolate YYH-CJ-17, with ddH2O as a negative control, and then were cultivated at 25â and 90% humidity for 21 days in the greenhouse. This assay found that the E. sagittatum leaves treated with isolate YYH-CJ-17 exhibited the same symptoms observed on plants in fields (Supplementary Figure S4B). The fungus re-isolated from the inoculated leaves were identified as R. oryzae by ITS sequencing and were blasted with NR database, which highest matched with the sequence of ITS (accessions MF522822.1) mentioned above, thus fulfilling Koch's postulates. R. oryzae has been identified as a causative agent of a diverse array of host diseases, including leaf mildew of tobacco, fruit rot of yellow oleander and pears, and soft rot of bananas (Farooq et al. 2017; Khokhar et al. 2019; Kwon et al. 2012; Pan et al. 2021). To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of leaf rot on E. sagittatum caused by R. oryzae in China, which will provide clear prevention and management target for the leaf rot disease of E. sagittatum.
RESUMEN
The foliar disease, which is the primary complex disease of Pseudostellaria heterophylla, can be caused by multiple co-infecting pathogens, resulting in a significant reduction in yield. However, there is a lack of research on the relationship between co-infection of various pathogens and the response of resistance-related genes in P. heterophylla. Through the use of 18S rDNA sequencing and pathogenicity testing, it has been determined that Fusarium oxysporum, Alternaria alternata, Arcopilus aureus, Botrytis cinerea, Nemania diffusa, Whalleya microplaca, and Cladosporium cladosporioides are co-infecting pathogens responsible for foliar diseases in P. heterophylla. Furthermore, the qRT-PCR analysis revealed that F. oxysporum, A. alternata, B. cinerea, A. aureus, N. diffusa, Schizophyllum commune, C. cladosporioides, and Coprinellus xanthothrix upregulated ten, two, three, four, seven, thirteen, five, one, and six resistance-related genes, respectively. These findings suggest that a total of 22 resistance-related genes were implicated in the response to diverse fungi, and the magnitude and frequency of induction of resistance-related genes varied considerably among the different fungi. The aforementioned gene associated with resistance was found to be implicated in the response to multiple fungi, including PhPRP1, PhBDRN15, PhBDRN11, and PhBDRN3, which were found to be involved in the resistance response to nine, five, four, and four fungi, respectively. The findings indicate that the PhPRP1, PhBDRN15, PhBDRN11, and PhBDRN3 genes exhibit a broad-spectrum resistance to various fungi. Furthermore, the avirulence fungi C. xanthothrix, which is known to affect P. heterophylla, was found to prime a wide range of resistance responses in P. heterophylla, thereby enhancing its disease resistance. This study provided insight into the management strategies for foliar diseases of P. heterophylla and new genetic materials for disease-resistant breeding.

Metaiodobenzylguanidine (MIBG) is an analog of norepinephrine that accumulates in sympathetic nerve endings soon after intravenous administration. The degree of accumulation reflects the uptake, storage and release of transmitters by noradrenergic neurons. Myocardial imaging with 123I labeled MIBG ( 123I-MIBG) can be used to estimate the extent of local myocardial sympathetic nerve damage, which has been widely used in the diagnosis and treatment of various heart diseases. In recent years, numerous studies have been carried out on the application of 123I-MIBG in the diagnosis of degenerative diseases of the nervous system (such as Parkinson's disease and dementia of Lewy body), and have made some achievements. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current clinical application of 123I-MIBG myocardial imaging in the diagnosis of dementia with Lewy bodies, the problems in imaging technology and the possible research directions in the future, so as to provide valuable reference information for clinicians to reasonably and accurately apply this technology in the early diagnosis and discrimination of dementia.

Acinetobacter schindleri is an endophyte of Pseudostellaria heterophylla, a traditional Chinese herbal plant. It has high degradation activity to toxins produced by fungal pathogen Fusarium graminearum. Here, we deployed PacBio single-molecule real-time long-read sequencing technology to generate a complete genome assembly for the Acinetobacter schindleri H4-3-C1 strain and obtained 1.59 Gb of clean reads. These reads were assembled to a single circular DNA chromosome with a length of 3,265,024 bp, and no plasmid was found in the genome. Totals of 3,193 coding sequences, 91 transfer RNA, 21 ribosomal RNA, and 75 small RNAs were identified in the genome. This high-quality genome assembly and gene annotation resource will facilitate the excavation of the zearalenone degradation gene and provide valuable resources for preventing and controlling toxigenic fungal diseases of P. heterophylla.

Pseudostellaria heterophylla (family Caryophyllaceae) is a perennial herbaceous plant. Its tuberous roots are highly valued in traditional Chinese medicine. It is mainly cultivated in a geo-authentic production zone located in the Guizhou, Anhui, Shandong, and Fujian provinces of China (Zhao et al. 2016). The herb is widely used for treating lung diseases and as a spleen tonic (Pang et al. 2011). A severe leaf black spot disease was observed on P. heterophylla in China, from 2018 to 2020. Plants displayed water-soaking symptoms in the early stage of infection, then the watery areas turned brown-red and a black mold appeared on the lesions. At a later stage, the leaf spots showed concentric rings surrounded by a yellow halo, and the initial infection site became dry and necrotic (Supplementary Figure S1). Nine infected plants were collected from three cultivation fields in Shibing County (N 27°4'21", E 108°8'0"), Guizhou province, on April 13th, 2019. The fungus was consistently isolated from symptomatic leaves on potato dextrose agar (PDA) medium according to the method described by Larran et al (2002). A total of 22 isolates were obtained, including 7 isolates of Arcopilus and 15 isolates of Trichoderma. The growth rates of isolate MJ2-2b on PDA and oatmeal agar (OA) medium were 3 to 5 mm/day at 25 °C (Supplementary Figure S2A and S2B). Mycelium of isolate MJ2-2b was dense, yellowish-brown on PDA, while it was sparse, bright-red on OA. Also, the mycelium secreted brownish-red pigment on both PDA and OA. Ascomata when mature were water drop and limoniform. Lateral hairs were brown, erect or flexuous, tapering towards the tips. Ascospores when mature were greyish-white to grey, limoniform, or fusiform to pyriform (Supplementary Figure S2C and S2D). Further, the beta-tubulin gene (Tub2) of the fungus was amplified by using primer pairs T1 and TUB4Rd as described by Wang et al (2016) and subjected to sequencing. NCBI nucleotide BLAST results showed that sequences from seven isolates had a 99.86% identity with A. aureus (strain ChL-C, GenBank accession No. MG889987.1) (Supplementary Figure S2F). Molecular phylogenetic analysis by maximum likelihood method using MEGA 7 confirmed that the fungal isolate clustered with A. aureus. Hence, the causal agent was identified as A. aureus based on morphological and molecular characteristics. The sequence was deposited in GenBank (accession No. MW531453). Pathogenicity tests were conducted on 15-day old tissue-cultured seedlings according to Ghanbary et al (2018) (Supplementary Figure S3). Leaves of 16 seedlings were inoculated with 1×1 mm 5-day-old PDA-grown mycelial plugsof the fungal isolate. The experiment was repeated 3 times. After 10 days, the inoculated leaves showed the same symptoms observed on plants in the field. The associated fungal pathogen was consistently re-isolated from the inoculated seedlings and identified by Tub2 gene sequencing. At present, there are no reports of A. aureus causing disease of plants. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of leaf black spot disease on P. heterophylla caused by A. aureus in China.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND: The ternary cropping system of Gastradia elata depends on a symbiotic relationship with the mycorrhizal fungi Armillaria mellea, which decays wood to assimilate nutrition for the growth of G. elata. The composition of microbe flora as key determinants of rhizoshere and mycorrhizoshere soil fertility and health was investigated to understand how G. elata and A. mellea impacted on its composition. The next generation pyrosequencing analysis was applied to assess the shift of structure of microbial community in rhizoshere of G. elata and mycorrhizoshere of A. mellea compared to the control sample under agriculture process. RESULTS: The root-associated microbe floras were significantly impacted by rhizocompartments (including rhizoshere and mycorrhizoshere) and agriculture process. Cropping process of G. elata enhanced the richness and diversity of the microbial community in rhizoshere and mycorrhizoshere soil. Furthermore, planting process of G. elata significantly reduced the abundance of phyla Basidiomycota, Firmicutes and Actinobacteria, while increased the abundance of phyla Ascomycota, Chloroflexi, Proteobacteria, Planctomycetes, and Gemmatimonadetes in rhizoshere and mycorrhizoshere. Besides, A. mellea and G. elata significantly enriched several members of saprophytoic and pathogenic fungus (i.e., Exophiala, Leptodontidium, Cosmospora, Cercophora, Metarhizium, Ilyonectria, and Sporothrix), which will enhance the possibility of G. elata disease incidence. At the same time, the ternary cropping system significantly deterred several members of beneficial ectomycorrhizal fungus (i.e., Russula, Sebacina, and Amanita), which will reduce the ability to protect G. elata from diseases. CONCLUSIONS: In the ternary cropping system of G. elata, A. mellea and G. elata lead to imbalance of microbial community in rhizoshere and mycorrhizoshere soil, suggested that further studies on maintaining the balance of microbial community in A. mellea mycorrhizosphere and G. elata rhizosphere soil under field conditions may provide a promising avenue for high yield and high quality G. elata.

Angiosarcoma is a rare and aggressive malignancy disease. It constitutes less than 1% of all sarcomas. According to previous reports, angiosarcoma usually shows hypermetabolic features on fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) and therefore 18F-FDG PET/CT may be helpful to staging and assessing therapeutic efficacy. We report a rare case of multicentric bone angiosarcoma in a 51-year-old female patient showing low to mild 18F-FDG uptake, mimicking multiple myeloma, which often presents mild 18F-FDG avid lesions.

Gastrodia elata is a heterotrophic plant that needed to be symbiotic with Armillaria. The obstacle of continuous cropping in G. elata is serious during the G. elata cultivation, and the mechanism of obstacle in G. elata continuous cropping had not been solved. The planting of G. elata-Phallus impudicus is a new sequential planting pattern adopted in Guizhou province, but the effect of the cultivation on soil microbial community structure is still unclear. In this study, we collected four soil samples for the research including the soil without planted G. elata as control(CK), rhizosphere soil samples tightly adhering to the G. elata surface(GE), rhizosphere soil samples tightly adhering to Armillaria which was symbiotic with G. elata(AGE), the rhizosphere soil of P. impudicus planting after G. elata cultivation(PI). In order to explore the mechanism, the research study on the soil of G. elata-P. impudicus by using ITS and 16 S rDNA high-throughput sequencing technologies to detect soil microbial community structure including fungi and bacteria in the soil of CK, AGE, GE and PI. OTU clustering and PCA analysis of soil samples showed that the soil microbial diversity was relatively similar in AGE and GE. And the soil microbial in PI and CK clustered together. The results showed that AGE and GE had similar soil microbial diversity, as well as PI and CK. Compared with CK, the soil microbial diversity and abundance in AGE and GE were significantly increased. But the microbial diversity and abundance decreased in PI compared with AGE and GE. The annotation indicated that the abundance of Basidiomycota, Acidobacteria and Chloroflexi decreased, and that of Ascomycota, Zygomycota and Proteobacteria increased in AGE and GE compared with CK. In contrast to AGE and GE, PI was the opposite. The abundance of Basidiomycota, Acidobacteria and Chloroflexi increased in PI compared with AGE and GE. The abundance of microorganisms in the soil of PI and CK was similar. In addition, the co-culture of Armillaria and P. impudicus indicated that P. impudicus had obvious antagonistic effects on the growth of Armillaria. Therefore, it is speculated that the mechanism of G. elata-P. impudicus planting pattern related to the change of soil microbial. And we supposed that P. impudicus might inhibit the growth of Armillaria and change the soil microbial community structure and the abundance of soil microbial. And the soil microbial community structure was restored to a state close to that of uncultivated G. elata. Thus, the structure of soil microbial community planting G. elata could be restored by P. impudicus planting.

The study is aimed to create seed materials and dissect the molecular mechanism of sexual propagation of Gastrodia elata. In this research, thirteen characteristics of flowers, flower stem, fruits, seeds and embryo of G.elata f. glauca and G.elata f. elata after bolting at room temperature(RT) and constant temperature(CT, 22 â) were determined. It was found that the constant temperature condition could prolong the bolting duration of G.elata and increased the number of flowers, while the variety of G.elata only affected the bolting duration, but had no effect on the number of flowers, and the G.elata f. elata was more likely to bolting than the G.elata f. glauca. The variety of G.elata was the main factor affecting the time of dehiscent fruit of G.elata, the temperature was the main factor affecting the fruits number and fruits diameter, and the constant temperature was more conducive to the fruits shape of G.elata than the room temperature. There was no significant difference in seed phenotype of G.elata varieties, but the seed embryo of G.elata seeds cultivated at constant temperature was fuller than that of G.elata cultivated at room temperature, and temperature had less influence on the seed phenotype of G.elata. But it was interesting to find that temperature and varieties had greater influence on the seed embryo of G.elata, constant temperature cultivation was more conducive to the formation of seed embryo of G.elata, and more the seed embryo of G.elata f. elata was easier to form than the seed embryo of G.elata f. glauca. However, the development of seeds and embryos of G.elata was significantly affected, and the development of seeds and embryos of G.elata f. glauca was more sensitive to temperature than G.elata f. elata. The research suggested that it is advisable for G.elata to produce seed materials by bolting at constant temperature(22 â).

2-ï¼» 18Fï¼½-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography ( 18F-FDG PET/CT) combining positron emission tomography with computed tomography is used to evaluate the body's glucose metabolic changes under different conditions. In addition to its established role in oncological imaging, 18F-FDG PET/CT has clinical utility in suspected inflammation and infection. The technique can identify the source of infection in a timely fashion ahead of morphological changes, map the extent and severity of inflammation, guide the site for tissue biopsy and assess therapy response. This article reviewed the use of 18F-FDG PET/CT in infection and inflammation, such as fever of unknown origin, sarcoidosis, vessel vasculitis, osteomyelitis, joint prosthesis or implant-related complications, human immunodeficiency virus-related infections, and other indications, such as inflammatory bowel disease, so as to provide reference for clinicians to select 18F-FDG PET/CT to help them in the diagnosis and treatment of inflammatory diseases.

BACKGROUND: The sensitivity of plants to ammonia is a worldwide problem that limits crop production. Excessive use of ammonium as the sole nitrogen source results in morphological and physiological disorders, and retarded plant growth. RESULTS: In this study we found that the root growth of Panax notoginseng was inhibited when only adding ammonium nitrogen fertilizer, but the supplement of nitrate fertilizer recovered the integrity, activity and growth of root. Twelve RNA-seq profiles in four sample groups were produced and analyzed to identify deregulated genes in samples with different treatments. In comparisons to NH[Formula: see text] treated samples, ACLA-3 gene is up-regulated in samples treated with NO[Formula: see text] and with both NH[Formula: see text] and NO[Formula: see text], which is further validated by qRT-PCR in another set of samples. Subsequently, we show that the some key metabolites in the TCA cycle are also significantly enhanced when introducing NO[Formula: see text]. These potentially enhance the integrity and recover the growth of Panax notoginseng roots. CONCLUSION: These results suggest that the activated TCA cycle, as demonstrated by up-regulation of ACLA-3 and several key metabolites in this cycle, contributes to the increased Panax notoginseng root yield when applying both ammonium and nitrate fertilizer.

A minimal data set( MDS) for soil fertility evaluation of Chrysanthemum plantation areas of Macheng city was established by principal component analysis( PCA) combined with Norm values of soil fertility indices and correlation coefficients among indices. A radar map was used to visually reflect the fertility level of individual indicators. Then,the comprehensive index model was used to calculate the soil fertility quality index( SFQI),and the values of SFQI was used to cluster,and the results showed that MDS was composed of five indicators: organic matter( OM),total phosphate( TP),available phosphorus( Av P),available magnesium( Av Mg) and available ferrum( Av Fe). Radar maps showed that the fertility of available phosphorus( Av P) and available copper( Av Cu) was mostly different in the two town,and the fertility of available ferrum( Av Fe) is smallest different. Except for the effective manganese( Av Mn) fertility level of Huangtugang town was higher than that of Futianhe town,the rest were lower than that of Futianhe town. Through analysis,the sensitivity of SFQI value calculated by taking the contribution rate of MDS index in the principal component of the whole data set( TDS) as the weight was the highest,MDS could better replace TDS. The value of SFQI-MDS ranged from 0. 353 to 0. 833,with an average value of 0. 604 and a coefficient of variation of 22%. The results of SFQI-MDS clustering showed that soil fertility could be divided into four categories: grade â ( 0. 727-0. 833) was superior,accounting for 25. 0%,grade â ¡( 0. 615-0. 681)was good,accounting for 29. 2%,mainly distributed in Futianhe Town,grade â ¢( 0. 494-0. 589) was medium,accounting for29. 1%,and grade â £( 0. 353-0. 419) was poor,accounting for 16. 7%,mainly distributed in Huangtugang town. Soil fertility of Futianhe town was better than that of Huangtugang town. It is suggested that boron fertilizer and potassium fertilizer should be supplemented to Chrysanthemum morifolium in production practice,and the amount of phosphate fertilizer,magnesium fertilizer and nitrogen fertilizer should be increased appropriately. At the same time,the amount of organic fertilizer should be increased to enhance soil fertility and improve soil physical and chemical properties.

RESUMEN
The aim of this study is to analyze the concordance between EDV, ESV and LVEF values derived from 18F-FDG PET, GSPECT and ECHO in patients with myocardial infarction. Sixty-four patients with coronary artery disease (CAD) and myocardial infarction were enrolled in the study. Each patient underwent at least two of the above mentioned studies within 2 weeks. LVEF, EDV and ESV values were analyzed with dedicated software. Statistical evaluation of correlation and agreement was carried out EDV was overestimated by 18F-FDG PET compared with GSPECT [(137.98 ± 61.71) mL and (125.35 ± 59.34) mL]; ESV was overestimated by 18F-FDG PET (85.89 ± 55.21) mL and GSPECT (82.39 ± 55.56) mL compared with ECHO (68.22 ± 41.37) mL; EF was overestimated by 18F-FDG PET (41.96% ± 15.08%) and ECHO (52.18% ± 13.87%) compared with GSPECT (39.75% ± 15.64%), and EF was also overestimated by 18F-FDG PET compared with GSPECT. The results of linear regression analysis showed good correlation between EDV, ESV and LVEF values derived from 18F-FDG PET, GSPECT and ECHO (r = 0.643-0.873, P = 0.000). Bland-Altman analysis indicated that 18F-FDG PET correlated well with ECHO in the Left ventricular function parameters. While GSPECT correlated well with 18F-FDG PET in ESV, GSPECT had good correlation with Echo in respect of EDV and EF; whereas GSPECT had poor correlation with PET/ECHO in the remaining left ventricular function parameters. Therefore, the clinical physicians should decide whether they would use the method according to the patients' situation and diagnostic requirements.

In order to make sure whether Panax notoginseng is sensitive to chloridion and guide fertilization in planting of P. notoginseng, the effects of the different proportion of potassium chloride (KCl) and potassium sulfate (K2SO4) on the yield, quality of P. notoginseng were studied. The results showed that K fertilizer significantly improved the growth of P. notoginseng and increased the biomass per plant or per pot and the content of N, P, K and the content of saponin. In cases of conditions such as potassium, and the effects of K2SO4 on increasing the petiole length, leaf size, rhizome length, root length, and content and accumulation of Ginsenoside Rg1 were better than those of KCl. While compared with K2SO4, KCl was more conducive to augmenting height, root width, the biomass of shoot, rhizome, root and the content of Ginsenoside Rb1 and Rd. There was not remarkable difference in agronomic characters, biomass and the content of N, P, K among KCl, K2SO4 and the combination of KCl and K2SO4. However, the content of saponin of the treatment with combination of KCl and K2SO4 was significant higher than that of single KCl or K2SO4 treatments. K fertilizer significantly increased yield and the content of saponins. And P. notoginseng was not sensitive to chloridion. KCl increased the yield and the content of saponins of P. notoginseng as well as K2SO4, and the combination treatment was superior to single treatment. It is recommended that the KCl should be adopted in production, to reduce the cost of potash fertilizer.

OBJECTIVE: In order to provide scientific basis for introduction breeding and production regionalization of Panax notoginseng, the environment of producing area, agronomic traits and medicinal material output were investigated. METHOD: Using field survey sampling at harvest time, agronomic traits indicators of leaf segment, stem segment and roots segment etc. of commodity P. notoginseng, longitude and latitude, elevation, soil type, landform of producing area were measured and observed. RESULT: The P. notogiseng cultivation was expanding from traditional area like Wenshang to new areas as Honghe, Kunming, Qujing at large scale. Comparing with traditional cultivated fields, the elevation of new fields, which are red soil of moderate or low mountain slopes and gentle hills between 1 800-2 130 m, increases markedly. The agronomic traits of new cultivated fields such as plant height, stem diameter, the ground and underground biomass were better than those of traditional cultivated fields in varying degree. Furthermore, the root weight, taproot weight, taproot length and other agronomic index augmented more than 20%. Comparison among different cultivated fields showed P. notoginseng of Honghe Shiping Niujie, Kunming Shilin Guishan, Honghe Jiangshui Guanting etc. had better agronomic traits, the plant were thick and tall, the taproot and the top of reed were large, the number of root was more. Inversely, P. notoginseng of Kunming Guandu Xiaoshao, Guangxi Jingxi Lutong, Wenshang Yanshan Jiangna were thin and small. Cluster analysis showed that cultivated fields of P. notoginseng which was across clustered by traditional and new cultivated fields can be divided into three groups, including a high-yielding region insist of three new cultivated fields Honghe Shiping Niujie, Kunming Shilin Guishan, Honghe Jiangshui Guanting and one traditional cultivated field Wenshan Yanshan Jiangna. Correlation analysis indicated that the size and weight of taproot and top of reed were significantly positive correlated with plant height, stem diameter, leaf size, leaf weight and stem weight. Regression analysis pointed out that stem diameter, leaf width, leaf length/width, leaf weight were the main factors affecting the dry weight of taproot, and the main factors influencing the dry weight of top of reed were plant height, petiole, leaf length, leaf width and other agronomic traits. CONCLUSION: From agronomic traits, P. notoginseng in new cultivated fields were more robust than that in traditional fields, but besides the length of taproot, the difference of rest agronomic traits didn't reach the significant level. It is suggested that, in the west and the north of traditional area, the red soil land of moderate or low mountain slopes and gentle hills where the elevation is between 1 800-2 130 m is suitable for cultivating P. notoginseng. Honghe Shiping Niujie, Honghe Jianshui Guanting, Kuming Shilin Gongshan can be used as vital development area for commodity P. notoginseng.

OBJECTIVE: In order to improve the irrigation for Panax notginseng growing seedlings, different mulching ways were carried out to investigate the effects of double mulching. METHOD: Field experiment was applied to study soil moisture, soil temperature and bulk density of different mulching ways while the germination rate and seedlings growth also were investigated. RESULT: Compared with the traditional single mulching with pine leaves or straw, double mulching using plastic film combined with pine leaves or straw could reduce 2/3 volumes of irrigation at the early seedling time Double mulching treatments didn't need to irrigate for 40 days from seeding to germination, and kept soil moisture and temperature steady at whole seedling time about 30% and 9.0-16.6 degrees C, respectively. The steady soil moisture and temperature benefited to resist late spring cold and germinate earlier while kept germination regularly, higher rate and seedlings quality. In contrast, single mulching using pine leaves or straw had poor soil moisture and temperature preserving, needed to irrigate every 12-day, meanwhile dropped the germination and booming time 14 days and 24-26 days, respectively, reduced germination rate about 11.3%-8.7%. However, single pine leaves mulching was better than straw mulching. In addition, though better effects of soil moisture and temperature preserving as well as earlier and higher rate of germination with single plastic films mulching had, some disadvantages had also been observed, such as daily soil temperature changed greatly, seedling bed soil hardened easily, more moss and weeds resulted difficulty in later management. CONCLUSION: To the purpose of saving water and labor as well as getting higher germination rate and seedlings quality, double mulching using plastic films combined pine leaves at the early time and single mulching removing plastic films at the later time is suggested to apply in the growing seedlings of P. notoginseng.

BACKGROUND: Continuous monocropping obstacles are common in plants, especially medicinal plants, resulting in disease outbreaks and productivity reductions. Foliar disease, mainly caused by Fusarium oxysporum, results in a severe decrease in the yield of Pseudostellaria heterophylla annually. Determining an effective biomethod to alleviate this disease is urgently needed to improve its productivity and quality. RESULTS: This study screened thirty-two keystone bacterial genera induced by pathogens in P. heterophylla rhizosphere soil under continuous monocropping conditions. Pseudomonas, Chryseobacterium, and Flavobacterium, referred to as the beneficial microbiota, were significantly attracted by pathogen infection. The P. palleroniana strain B-BH16-1 can directly inhibit the growth and spore formation of seven primary pathogens of P. heterophylla foliar disease by disrupting fusaric acid production via the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs). In addition, strain B-BH16-1 enhances the disease resistance of P. heterophylla by obliterating the pathogen and assembling beneficial microbiota. CONCLUSION: Pathogen-induced Pseudomonas reshaped phyllosphere microbial communities via direct antagonism of pathogens and indirect disruption of the pathogen virulence factor biosynthesis to enhance disease suppression and improve yields. These results show that inhibiting pathogen virulence biosynthesis to reshape the plant microbial community using disease-induing probiotics will be an innovative strategy for managing plant disease, especially under continuous monoculture conditions.
