Insights into Martian bedform migration: Results from Gale, Jezero and Pasteur craters

AbstractAn attempt is made in this study to advance the understanding of the sand movement on Mars by studying the bedform migration at Gale, Jezero and Pasteur craters. The study on the grain size distribution at Gale Crater using Curiosity rover (MAHLI and APXS) observations reveals that the grains with smaller diameters (~50–150 μ) are more prone to migration and vice‐versa, which gives an idea of the necessary requirements that initiate bedform migration. The chemical analysis of the surface materials at the Gale crater revealed elevated concentrations of P2O5, SO3, Cl and Zn in soil compared to sand and active transportation processes for sand but not soil. The comprehensive chemical makeup of the Martian soil (inactive bedforms) and sand (active bedforms) is characterized by its basaltic nature, with enriched volatile elements such as sulphur, chlorine and zinc, and the presence of minerals like plagioclase, pyroxene and olivine due to the cohesive nature of inactive bedforms. Physical weathering and wind flow velocity play a pivotal role in the formation of different sedimentary bodies, impacting grain size distribution and mineralogy. The effect of dust‐lifting on surface features is studied by analysing Perseverance‐MEDA observations at the Jezero crater to understand the short‐term changes in the bedform. These events are found to involve the redistribution of only a small amount of materials and, thereby, changing surface features on Mars over a short period. To detect the bedform migration in the Pasteur crater, several HiRISE images acquired over different time intervals were used. The changes in the ripple crest (~0.29–1.18 m/Earth year) and dune slip face suggest new grain flow events. In the Pasteur crater, extensive changes in sand deposits near the dunes signify a widespread bedform migration. The stronger north‐westerly and north‐easterly winds dominate these changes. Thus, the bedform migration in the three tropical craters exhibits significant variability driven by localized aeolian processes. This variability is crucial for understanding Mars' geological history, current surface dynamics and eventually, helps in planning future missions.

Identification of Laccase Family of Auricularia auricula-judae and Structural Prediction Using Alphafold

Laccase is an enzyme that plays an important role in fungi, including lignin degradation, stress defense, and formation of fruiting bodies. Auricularia auricula-judae is a white-rot fungus in the Basidiomycota phylum, capable of delignifying wood. In this study, seven genes belonging to the laccase family were identified through de novo sequencing, containing Cu-Oxidase, Cu-Oxidase_2, and Cu-Oxidase_3 domains. Subsequently, the physical characteristics, phylogenetic relationships, protein secondary structure, and tertiary structure of the laccase family (AaLac1–AaLac7) were analyzed. Prediction of N-glycosylation sites identified 2 to 10 sites in the laccase family, with AaLac7 having the highest number of sites at 10. Sequence alignment and analysis of the laccase family showed high consistency in signature sequences. Phylogenetic analysis confirmed the relationship among laccases within the family, with AaLac3–AaLac4 and AaLac5–AaLac6 being closely positioned on the tree, exhibiting high similarity in tertiary structure predictions. This study identified and analyzed laccase family genes in Auricularia auricula-judae using de novo sequencing, offering a simple method for identifying and analyzing the laccase family in organisms with unknown genetic information.

Do interspecific differences in morphology influence foraging efficiency of juvenile crappie?

Sympatric black crappie ( Pomoxis nigromaculatus Lesueur in Cuvier and Valenciennes, 1829) and white crappie ( Pomoxis annularis Rafinesque, 1818) often differ in ecological performance, such that white crappie outnumber black crappie in turbid waterbodies and black crappie predominate in clear waters with abundant cover. Recent work suggests that this performance difference is driven by juvenile white crappie having a limnetic body form and juvenile black crappie having a littoral body form, resulting in differential predation mortality between the species within open-water and vegetated environments. We tested whether these morphologies also lead to interspecific differences in foraging efficiency between the congeners in structure and open water. Juvenile black crappie spent more time pursuing fish prey than white crappie across all trials, suggesting that energetic gains of piscivory may differ between species. However, both species had similar capture efficiencies when attacking fathead minnows ( Pimephales promelas Rafinesque, 1820) within vegetated and open-water habitats. We conclude that variation in morphology between juvenile black crappie and white crappie does not have a large influence on foraging efficiency, at least on fish prey, in dense cover or open water, and suggest their performance in sympatry is likely not driven by predatory capabilities at the onset of piscivory within these different environmental contexts. Instead, the relationship between morphology and predator evasion may drive the distribution and relative abundance of crappie species within sympatric populations.

F-Box and WD repeat domain containing 7 induces infectious osteomyelitis by regulating MYB stability and ubiquitination.

Osteomyelitis is a bone inflammation initiated by invading pathogens. Macrophages and inflammation play essential roles in osteomyelitis. F-Box and WD repeat domain containing 7 (Fbxw7) is a tumour suppressor and E3 ubiquitin ligase. In the present study, the potential roles of Fbxw7 in osteomyelitis were explored. The mRNA level of Fbxw7 was measured in bone marrow cells from patients with osteomyelitis and Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus)-infected macrophages. The conditional knockout mice with Fbxw7 deficiency in myeloid cells were generated. The expression of interleukin (IL)-6, IL-23a and nitric oxide synthase 2 (Nos2) was measured in S. aureus-infected Fbxw7-deficient bone marrow-derived macrophages (BMDMs). The body weight loss, bacterial burden, bone loss and formation and serum level of IL-6, IL-23 and TNF-α were measured in S. aureus-infected Fbxw7 conditional KO mice. The interacting partners of Fbxw7 were predicted using STRING and the interaction were tested. Elevated expression of Fbxw7 was observed in bone marrow cells from patients with osteomyelitis and in S. aureus-infected macrophages. The expression of IL-6, IL-23a and Nos2 was remarkably suppressed in S. aureus-infected Fbxw7-deficient BMDMs. Fbxw7 conditional knockout mice had less body weight loss, higher bacterial burden, less bone loss and formation and decreased serum level of cytokines. Fbxw7 interacted with MYB. S. aureus-infected Fbxw7-deficient BMDMs had higher level of MYB and less ubiquitination of MYB. Fbxw7 promotes osteomyelitis symptoms by regulating ubiquitination and stability of MYB.

Time to consider ruling out inclusion bodies denaturing protocols for spontaneous solubilization of biologically active proteins

The formation of inclusion bodies (IBs) in microbial cell factories is a very common process occurring during recombinant protein production. Different protocols have been developed for the extraction of soluble proteins from IBs using several strategies, ranging from the use of harsh denaturing and high concentrations of chaotropic agents and reducing agents to the use of mild protocols based on the use of non-denaturing detergents. However, in recent years, the biological vision of IBs has changed and research studies have demonstrated that these protein aggregates contain biologically active and properly folded recombinant proteins. This drives us to redefine the methodologies currently used to obtain soluble protein using IB as a protein source. Hence, we propose the extraction of IB protein via the simple spontaneous solubilization of IB as a strategy broadly applicable to all kinds of recombinant proteins without the negative effects of detergents and chaotropic agents on final biological activity. We prove the wide applicability of spontaneous solubilization processes to different types of IBs and that protocols can be easily customized for each protein in terms of timing and incubation temperature by monitoring the protein activity of the solubilized fraction.

A novel 3D cardiac microtissue model for investigation of cardiovascular complications in rheumatoid arthritis

BackgroundRheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory disease that affects not only the joints but also has significant cardiovascular (CV) manifestations. The mechanistic interplay between RA and cardiovascular complications is not yet well understood due to the lack of relevant in vitro models. In this study, we established RA cardiac microtisses (cMTs) from iPSC-derived cardiomyocytes (CMs), endothelial cells (ECs) and cardiac fibroblasts (CFs) to investigate whether this fully human 3D multicellular system could serve as a platform to elucidate the connection between RA and CV disorders.MethodsPBMC and FLS from healthy and RA donors were reprogrammed to hiPSCs with Sendai vectors. hiPSCs pluripotency was assessed by IF, FACS, spontaneous embryoid bodies formation and teratoma assay. hiPSCs were differentiated to cardiac derivatives such as CMs, ECs and CFs, followed by cell markers characterizations (IF, FACS, qRT-PCR) and functional assessments. 3D cMTs were generated by aggregation of 70% CMs, 15% ECs and 15% CFs. After 21 days in culture, structural and metabolic properties of 3D cMTs were examined by IF, qRT-PCR and Seahorse bioanalyzer.ResultshiPSCs demonstrated typical colony-like morphology, normal karyotype, presence of pluripotency markers, and ability to differentiate into cells originating from all three germ layers. hiPSC-CMs showed spontaneous beating and expression of cardiac markers (cTnT, MYL7, NKX2.5, MYH7). hiPSC-ECs formed sprouting spheres and tubes and expressed CD31 and CD144. hiPSC-CFs presented spindle-shaped morphology and expression of vimentin, collagen 1 and DDR2. Self-aggregation of CMs/ECs/CFs allowed development of contracting 3D cMTs, demonstrating spherical organization of the cells, which partially resembled the cardiac muscle, both in structure and function. IF analysis confirmed the expression of cTnT, CD31, CD144 and DDR2 in generated 3D cMTs. RA cMTs exhibited significantly greater formation of capillary-like structures, mimicking enhanced vascularization—key RA feature—compared to control cMTs. Seahorse examination of cMTs revealed changes in mitochondrial and glycolytic rates in the presence of metabolic substrates and inhibitors.ConclusionsThe cMTs model may represent an advanced human stem cell-based platform for modeling CV complications in RA. The highly developed capillary-like structures observed within RA cMTs highlight a critical feature of inflammation-induced CV dysfunction in chronic inflammatory diseases.

Subsurface Faults and Magma Controls on the Jinchuan Ni-Cu Sulfide Deposit: Constraints from Magnetotelluric Data

The Jinchuan Ni-Cu sulfide deposit in the Longshoushan terrane is among the world’s largest magmatic sulfide deposits. This study uses magnetotelluric (MT) survey data imaging combined with previous geophysical data to investigate Segment III of the deposit. The image of MT data reveals a significant low-resistivity anomaly ~200 m beneath Segment III, aligning with known ore bodies, and an additional anomaly to the north, indicating further exploration potential. These findings highlight the deep-seated intrusions and their connection to surface mineralization, emphasizing the critical role of ultramafic rock encapsulation and fault-controlled morphology in ore body formation. The newly identified northern anomaly, resembling the Segment III ore bodies, suggests a promising target for future exploration. Integrating MT surveys with other geophysical methods enhances the understanding of subsurface structures and mineralization, providing a robust framework for discovering concealed mineral deposits and improving exploration efficiency.

Regulation of hepatic inclusions and fibrinogen biogenesis by SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD

Impaired secretion of an essential blood coagulation factor fibrinogen leads to hepatic fibrinogen storage disease (HFSD), characterized by the presence of fibrinogen-positive inclusion bodies and hypofibrinogenemia. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the biogenesis of fibrinogen in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) remain unexplored. Here we uncover a key role of SEL1L-HRD1 complex of ER-associated degradation (ERAD) in the formation of aberrant inclusion bodies, and the biogenesis of nascent fibrinogen protein complex in hepatocytes. Acute or chronic deficiency of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD in the hepatocytes leads to the formation of hepatocellular inclusion bodies. Proteomics studies followed by biochemical assays reveal fibrinogen as a major component of the inclusion bodies. Mechanistically, we show that the degradation of misfolded endogenous fibrinogen Aα, Bβ, and γ chains by SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD is indispensable for the formation of a functional fibrinogen complex in the ER. Providing clinical relevance of these findings, SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD indeed degrades and thereby attenuates the pathogenicity of two disease-causing fibrinogen γ mutants. Together, this study demonstrates an essential role of SEL1L-HRD1 ERAD in fibrinogen biogenesis and provides insight into the pathogenesis of protein-misfolding diseases.

Prokaryotic expression of wheat TaABI5-D3 gene and polyclonal antibody preparation

Abscisic acid insensitive 5 (ABI5) is a basic leucine zipper transcription factor regulating ABA-mediated seed germination, and TaABI5 is closely related to the pre-harvest sprouting in wheat. Studies have shown that TaABI5-D3, one of multiple copies of TaABI5 gene, encodes the intact TaABI5 protein. In this study, we constructed the prokaryotic expression vector pET-28a-TaABI5-D3 for expression of TaABI5-D3 in Escherichia coli and obtained the purified recombinant protein His-TaABI5-D3. This protein existed in the form of inclusion bodies, with the best expression induced by incubation with 0.6 mmol/L IPTG at 16 ℃, 150 r/min overnight (for 12 h). Subsequently, the purified His-TaABI5-D3 was injected into Balb/C mice for the preparation of polyclonal antibodies. Western blotting analysis indicated that the polyclonal antibody had relatively high specificity, laying foundations for clarification of the function of TaABI5 protein in wheat.

Duration of Light Exposure Using White Light-Emitting Diode (LED) on the Performance of White Oyster Mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus L.)

Background: In the dynamic world of mushroom cultivation, optimizing growth conditions is paramount for maximizing yield and quality. This research sought to evaluate the influence of varying hours of exposure to white light through light-emitting diodes (LED) on growth and yield performance of white oyster mushroom (Pleurotus ostreatus L.). Its aim was to determine the most effective light exposure duration for enhancing mushroom growth and yield. Research Design: Using a completely randomized design (CRD), the study used four treatments: 8 hours of lighting (T1), 12 hours of lighting (T2), 16 hours of lighting (T3), and a control group that received natural light (T4). The study was conducted in Palayamanan (8° 27’ 5.3118" N and 126° 9’ 59.7739" E) area at North Eastern Mindanao State University’s -Tagbina Campus from July 2023 to November 2023. Results: Results from the study provided interesting insights into the indirect nature of the relationship between light exposure and mushroom development. The findings of the study indicate that the duration of light exposure significantly affects the growth and yield of white oyster mushrooms. Both mycelium growth (29.80 days) and fruiting body formation (7.83 days), as well as harvesting time (10.87 days), were improved by 12 hours of lighting, while the control group consistently showed poor performance. Conclusion: Based from the analysis, it is evident that 12 hours of lighting consistently performed very well, with the exception of a minor under-performance in the case of yield per harvest, suggesting that 12 hours might be the ideal duration. Hence, 16 hours of lighting also demonstrated some advantages in certain variables, indicating potential for further study.

Short-term reduction in feed intake by dairy cows in the postpartum period leads to subclinical ketosis development

Subclinical ketosis is widespread in highly productive dairy cows after calving and often remains undiagnosed, leading to reduced productivity. Physiologically controlled feeding in the first weeks after calving and during the intensive lactation period can reduce the incidence of ketosis. The study aimed to determine how a short-term reduction of feed after calving affects the formation of ketone bodies in blood, urine and milk of dairy cows. The group of ten Ukrainian black-spotted dairy breed cows after calving aged from 4 to 6 years was involved in the experiment lasted for 72 h. In 24 h the amount of compound feed, haylage, and silage received by cows was gradually reduced until complete exclusion in the diet. Blood, urine, and milk samples were collected three times a day. The content of ketone bodies, β-hydroxybutyrate and glucose was estimated with the corresponding sets of indicator strips. The content of total bilirubin, cholesterol, albumin and enzymes activity in the blood serum were determined on biochemical analyzer. It was found that in 24 h after the beginning of feed reduction the level of blood glucose decreased, persistent hypoglycemia within 48 and 72 h was developed, the concentration of β-hydroxybutyrate in blood and milk and of ketone bodies in urine was elevated. The increase in total bilirubin concentration and liver enzymes activity in the blood serum with a simultaneous decrease in albumin level and delayed sodium propionate conversion into glucose were observed. Thus, short-term reduction in feed intake by dairy cows after calving causes ketosis development and violation of liver functions. Keywords: dairy сows, feeding level, glucose, ketosis, liver damage, β-hydroxybutyrate

Hip joint rice body bursitis combined with hip dysplasia and pelvic fracture: a case report

BackgroundRice body formation is an uncommon, nonspecific inflammatory process. Certain clinical features, such as chronic synovitis associated with rheumatoid arthritis, tuberculous arthritis, and osteoarthritis, can induce a non-specific response that may lead to the development of rice bodies. Currently, the etiological and prognostic significance of rice bodies remains unknown. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is the preferred diagnostic imaging modality for evaluating rice body formation.Case presentationThe patient, a 44-year-old female, presented with bursitis of the hip joint and the presence of numerous rice bodies. This case is exceptionally rare and unusual as it involves a combination of hip dysplasia and pelvic fracture. The patient underwent a one-stage resection of the rice body, internal fixation of the acetabular fracture, and two-stage total hip arthroplasty, resulting in an immediate improvement in her symptoms. We reviewed the relevant literature and observed that the majority of rice bodies were predominantly found within the capsules of the shoulder and knee joints, while instances of hip joint rice body bursitis were relatively infrequent. To our knowledge, there have been no previous reports documenting a case of hip joint rice body bursitis in conjunction with hip dysplasia and pelvic fracture.ConclusionThis paper presents the rare case of hip joint rice body bursitis combined with hip dysplasia and pelvic fracture, and is one of the highlights.

Identification and analysis of the key genes for Escherichia coli heterologous protein expression by transcriptomic profiling.

Escherichia coli is a frequently used host for heterologous protein expression, but its expression efficiency is hindered by several limitations, such as formation of inclusion bodies and proteolytic degradation. In this study, we employed high-density fermentation of heterologous protein production in a 5-L bioreactor, resulting in a yield 2.25 times higher than that of the control group. Transcriptional analysis was conducted at three time points after induction for 0h, 4h, and 12h, revealing 420, 301, and 570 upregulated differentially expressed genes, as well as 424, 202, and 525 downregulated genes, respectively. By conducting enrichment analysis, we constructed strains that relieved without iron limitation, exhibiting a 36% increase in biomass and a 32% increase in protein expression. Furthermore, no overflow metabolism of acetic acid was detected during the protein expression process when utilizing chemostat culture, which indicated that the utilization efficiency of glucose was significantly enhanced without iron limitation. This study presents a novel approach to better comprehend the mechanism of high-yield production of heterologous proteins in Escherichia coli.

Small Molecules, α-Synuclein Pathology, and the Search for Effective Treatments in Parkinson's Disease.

Parkinson's disease (PD) is a progressive age-related neurodegenerative disorder affecting millions of people worldwide. Essentially, it is characterised by selective degeneration of dopamine neurons of the nigro-striatal pathway and intraneuronal aggregation of misfolded α-synuclein with formation of Lewy bodies and Lewy neurites. Moreover, specific small molecules of intermediary metabolism may have a definite pathophysiological role in PD. These include dopamine, levodopa, reduced glutathione, glutathione disulfide/oxidised glutathione, and the micronutrients thiamine and ß-Hydroxybutyrate. Recent research indicates that these small molecules can interact with α-synuclein and regulate its folding and potential aggregation. In this review, we discuss the current knowledge on interactions between α-synuclein and both the small molecules of intermediary metabolism in the brain relevant to PD, and many other natural and synthetic small molecules that regulate α-synuclein aggregation. Additionally, we analyse some of the relevant molecular mechanisms potentially involved. A better understanding of these interactions may have relevance for the development of rational future therapies. In particular, our observations suggest that the micronutrients ß-Hydroxybutyrate and thiamine might have a synergistic therapeutic role in halting or reversing the progression of PD and other neuronal α-synuclein disorders.

Sequence characteristics, expression and subcellular localization of PtCYP721A57 gene from cytochrome P450 family in Polygala tenuifolia willd.

The Cytochrome P450 (CYP450) family is the largest enzyme protein family in plants, distributed across various organs and involved in significant catalytic activities in primary and secondary metabolic processes. In this study, we cloned the PtCYP721A57 gene, characterized its open reading frame (ORF), and conducted comprehensive analyses including physicochemical properties, evolutionary relationships, subcellular localization, prokaryotic expression, and correlation between the relative expression of different parts and the content of tenuifolin, hormones, and abiotic stress response associated with the encoded protein. The ORF of PtCYP721A57 was 1,521 bp, with a secondary structure predominantly composed of α-helices and random coils. Subcellular localization experiments confirmed the presence of PtCYP721A57 in the endoplasmic reticulum. For prokaryotic expression, we constructed the recombinant plasmid pET28a-PtCYP721A57 using pET28a as the vector, which was then transformed into BL21(DE3). Induction with Isopropyl β-D-1-thiogalactopyranoside (IPTG) at temperatures of 16 and 25 °C and varying concentrations (0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2 mM) resulted in the formation of inclusion bodies, with higher expression observed at 25 °C. Our qPCR analyses revealed that PtCYP721A57 exhibited the highest expression in the cortex of Polygala tenuifolia, followed by roots and xylem, correlating with the observed tenuifolin content distribution. Induction with abscisic acid (ABA) and chitosan (CHT) initially decreased PtCYP721A57 expression followed by a subsequent increase, peaking at 48 h. Similarly, drought stress induced a gradual increase in PtCYP721A57 expression, also peaking at 48 h. NaCl treatment for 6 h significantly upregulated PtCYP721A57 expression. In conclusion, our study provides foundational insights into the PtCYP721A57 gene in Polygala tenuifolia, laying the groundwork for further exploration of its role in the biosynthesis pathway of triterpenoid saponins.

Impact of Platelet-Rich Plasma on Sciatic Nerve Injury in Rats: HSP 70 Expression and Histological Changes in the Anterior Horn of the Spinal Cord

Peripheral nerve injuries are a significant and growing cause of disability worldwide, as reported by the World Health Organization (WHO). These injuries initiate complex cellular and molecular responses, including the activation of protective pathways that upregulate proteins such as Heat Shock Protein 70 (HSP 70), which plays a crucial role in neuroprotection and the inhibition of neuronal apoptosis. This study investigates the effects of Platelet-Rich Plasma (PRP) on peripheral nerve regeneration, focusing on neuron density, Nissl body presence, and HSP 70 expression as key indicators of recovery. The study utilized 36 rat spinal cord samples, divided into two main groups based on the evaluation time points, day 7 and day 42 post-injury. Each time point group was further subdivided into three: control, sciatica injury, and sciatica injury treated with PRP. Results demonstrated that PRP treatment significantly enhances peripheral nerve regeneration. This was evidenced by increased neuron density, improved Nissl body formation, and a modulation of HSP 70 expression levels, leading to accelerated recovery of motor function, particularly noticeable by day 7 post-injury. These findings suggest that PRP could be a promising therapeutic option for enhancing nerve regeneration and functional recovery after peripheral nerve injuries.

New insight into a simple high-yielding method for the production of fully folded and functional recombinant human CCL5

Chemokines are proteins important for a range of biological processes from cell-directed migration (chemotaxis) to cell activation and differentiation. Chemokine C-C ligand 5 (CCL5) is an important pro-inflammatory chemokine attracting immune cells towards inflammatory sites through interaction with its receptors CCR1/3/5. Recombinant production of large quantities of CCL5 in Escherichia coli is challenging due to formation of inclusion bodies which necessitates refolding, often leading to low recovery of biologically active protein. To combat this, we have developed a method for CCL5 production that utilises the purification of SUMO tagged CCL5 from E. coli SHuffle cells avoiding the need to reform disulfide bonds through inclusion body purification and yields high quantities of CCL5 (~ 25 mg/L). We demonstrated that the CCL5 produced was fully functional by assessing well-established cellular changes triggered by CCL5 binding to CCR5, including receptor phosphorylation and internalisation, intracellular signalling leading to calcium flux, as well as cell migration. Overall, we demonstrate that the use of solubility tags, SHuffle cells and low pH dialysis constitutes an approach that increases purification yields of active CCL5 with low endotoxin contamination for biological studies.

Effects of Pollen Germination and Pollen Tube Growth under Different Temperature Stresses in Mango (Mangifera indica L.) by Metabolome.

The dramatic temperature fluctuations spurred by global warming and the accompanying extreme weather events inhibit mango growth and threaten mango productivity. Particularly, mango flowering is highly sensitive to temperature changes. The mango fruit setting rate was significantly positively correlated with pollen activity, and pollen activity was regulated by different metabolites. In this study, the in vitro pollen of two mango varieties ('Renong No.1' and 'Jinhuang'), in which sensitivity to temperature differed significantly, were subjected to different temperature stresses (15 °C, 25 °C and 35 °C), and their metabolomics were analyzed. The present results showed that 775 differential metabolites were screened by liquid chromatography-mass spectrometry and divided into 12 categories. The two varieties had significant differences in metabolite expression under different temperature stresses and the effect of low temperature on 'Renong No.1' mainly focused on amino acid metabolism, while the effect on 'Jinhuang' was mainly related to glycolysis. However, under the 35 °C temperature stress, 'Renong No.1' responded by redistributing riboflavin and betaine in vivo and the most obvious metabolic pathway of 'Jinhuang' enrichment was pyrimidine metabolism, which had undergone complex main body formation and extensive regulatory processes. The changes of metabolites of different varieties under low temperature and high temperature stress were different. Among them, flavonoids or flavonoid derivatives were included in class A (216 metabolites), C (163 metabolites) and D (233 metabolites) metabolites, indicating that flavonoid metabolites had an obvious regulatory effect on mango pollen metabolism under different temperature stress. The present results provide valuable information for reproductive biology studies and breeding in mango, in particular, the selection and breeding of the most suitable varieties for different production areas.
