    Trichoderma is a widely distributed filamentous fungus and widely used as a biological fungicide to control a variety of plant diseases in agriculture due to its excellent biocontrol potential. Trichoderma can reduce plant diseases caused by pathogens through different direct mechanisms (mycoparasitism and the production of cell wall degrading enzymes, antibiosis, competition for space or nutrients) or indirect mechanisms (induction of plant defense ). Compound biocontrol agents have received increasing attention in recent years. Trichoderma can be used in combination with other biocontrol products to produce better biocontrol effects because of its resistance to chemical pesticides and compatibility with rhizosphere microorganisms. The related mechanisms of Trichoderma, including parasitism, antibiosis, nutrient competition and induction of plant resistance were summarized, and the current research progress were discussed. In addition, the research progress of synergistic disease prevention between Trichoderma and other microorganisms or non-biological (chemical fungicides, other substances) with disease prevention effect was reviewed, and the current research status and the subsequent development prospects of Trichoderma as a biological fungicide were explored.

    To promote the development of high-value products for rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss), the quality (physicochemical properties, color, and sensory properties) of rainbow trout floss with different sugars added were investigated. At the same time, the volatile components and fatty acids of the floss were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometer (GC-MS). The results showed that the addition of sugar had an important impact on the quality of rainbow trout floss, which could promote the process of Maillard reaction and improve the sensory quality of fish floss such as taste and color. As pentose, the fish floss with arabinose had a faster process of Maillard reaction and more obvious color change, while the fish floss with fructooligosaccharides had a better sweet taste. In terms of fatty acid, the contents of saturated fat acid, eicosapntemacnioc acid (EPA) and docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) of the fish floss with oligofructose were the highest, and the content of polyunsaturated fatty acid of the fish floss with arabinose was the highest. In conclustion, due to Maillard reaction, the fish floss added with sugar produced aldehydes, ketones, alcohols and other substances with lower threshold, which could impact the flavor. Above results provided reference for improving the quality of rainbow trout floss and increasing product added value.

    To clarify the taxonomy of the pathogen causing a new bacterial leaf spot disease on fig (Ficus carica) in Fuzhou in 2020, diseased fig leaves were collected as test materials. The bacterial strains were isolated from the diseased leaves by streak plate method, and then the pathogenicity of the strains was determined by tobacco allergic reaction, spray inoculated fig leaves and Koch’s rule. The pathogen was identified based on morphological characteristics, physiological and biochemical determination, and phylogenetic tree analysis using partial sequences of 16S rDNA, gyrB and rpoD. The results showed that 10 bacterial strains were isolated and purified from the diseased leaves, healthy fig leaves demonstrated similar symptoms as the specimen collected from fields, and the identical morphological bacterial strains were re-isolated from diseased fig leaves. Thus, all of the bacterial strains were identified as the causal pathogens of bacterial leaf spot disease by Koch’s rule. The colony morphology was light yellow, round, and flat on the NA medium after 2 d of culture, and the gram staining reaction was negative. The bacterial strains could produce green water-soluble fluorescent on KB medium. The sequencing analysis based on 16S rDNA, gyrB and rpoD showed that the test strains were clustered with Pseudomonas cichorii; and the results of physiological and biochemical characteristics, Biolog phenotypes instrument, and specific primers were similar to the P. cichorii strain 5707, therefore the 10 isolated bacterial strains were identified as P. cichorii. It was the first report that P. cichorii could naturally cause the leaf spot disease in F. carica.

    Verticillium wilt (VW) is a disruptive symptom caused by Verticillium dahliae, which affects fiber yield and quality of cotton in China. AP2/ERF transcription factors play prominent role in plant growth, development and stress response. In order to excavate the genes related to resistance to VW in cotton and explore their biological functions, the candidate gene GhERF020 (XM_016842745.1) was obtained by homologous alignment of AT1G22810.1 related gene of Arabidopsis thaliana against V. dahliae. Bioinformatic analysis showed that the open reading frame length of GhERF020 was 441 bp, encoded 147 amino acids. GhERF020 contained a conserved AP2 domain, the relative molecular weight was 16.16 kD without transmembrane structure, belonging to the hydrophilic protein. It was predicted that the promoter region contained response elements of salicylic acid (SA), methyl jasmonate (MEJA), abscisic acid (ABA) and other response elements. The expression of GhERF020 was induced by V. dahliae infection. Subcellular localization analysis showed that GhERF020 protein was localized in the nucleus. As the expression of GhERF020 was downregulated by virus-induced gene silencing (VIGS) technique, the susceptibility of cotton plants to V. dahliae was significantly enhanced, and the disease index and pathogen biomass were distinctly increased. Above results indicated that GhERF020 was a positive regulator in resistance against V. dahliae in cotton.

    In order to study the effects of natural low temperature on the physicochemical indexes of starch of different rice varieties and cooking and eating quality of rice at filling stage, 7 high-yield and high-quality rice varieties were selected and processed into milled rice and rice flour, respectively. The physicochemical indexes of starch, viscosity, hardness and eating value of rice were measured at room temperature and low temperature. The results showed that low temperature during grain filling stage of rice increased significantly amylose content, setback, peak time, gelatinization temperature and rice hardness, the maximum amylose content was 47.4%. While it decreased obviously gel consistency, peak viscosity, breakdown and rice viscosity, the viscosity of rice was all reduced to 30~50 mm, and ultimately led to poor cooking and eating quality. The low temperature tolerance of 7 rice varieties was evaluated by taste value and starch physical and chemical indexes, the results showed ‘Y liangyou 911’ had the highest low temperature tolerance of rice quality, and ‘Y liangyou 1928’ had the lowest of rice quality. The results of this study showed that appropriate cultivation measures should be taken to cope with the influence of low temperature on rice quality during the grain filling period, which provided a new idea for screening and cultivating low-temperature tolerant and high-quality rice.

    Brining is of great significant for extending the shelf life and maintaining the quality of aquatic products, but the freezing and thawing process of brined aquatic products needs to be explored based on changes in the thermal properties of the raw materials. Yellow-fin tuna slices were immersed in NaCl solutions with mass volume fractions of 0.00% (CK), 1.44%, 2.88%, 5.75%, and 11.50% for a duration of 2 h to study the effects of brining on the density, specific heat capacity under different temperatures, and refrigerated tempering and radio frequency (RF) tempering were used to thaw brined tuna. Additionally, both conventional refrigerated and radio frequency (RF) tempering methods were employed. The results showed that with the mass fraction of salt in the brine solution increasing, the density of the fish firstly decreased and then increased, while specific heat capacity and thermal conductivity gradually decreased, and the dielectric constant and dielectric loss factor increased progressively. The tempering rates of both refrigerated and RF tempering decreased with the increasing of salt levels in the brine solution, with RF tempering significantly outpacing refrigerated tempering in terms of speed. Refrigerated brining exhibited superior uniformity compared to RF tempering, although the uniformity of RF tempering improved as the salt level in the brine solution increased. These findings laid foundation for exploring RF tempering processes of brined yellow-fin tuna, and was helpful for improving uniformity and enhancing tempering quality in further.

    To explore the physiological response of tobacco plant infected by Phytophthora to Trichoderma harzianum application sequence, the pot experiments were carried out with different treatments including inoculated with Phytophthora spore suspension (T1), inoculated with T. harzianum spore suspension (T2), inoculated with Phytophthora spore suspension first and then inoculated with T. harzianum spore suspension (T3), inoculated with T.harzianum spore suspension first and then inoculated with Phytophthora spore suspension (T4), inoculated with Phytophthora spore suspension and T. harzianum spore suspension at the same time (T5), and clear water (CK) as controls. The effects of T. harzianum application sequence on biological characteristics, physiological characteristics and induced resistance of tobacco infected by Phytophthora were analyzed. The results showed that, in the growth of tobacco plants, the agronomic characters of tobacco plants with T4 treatment increased the most, and the dry and fresh weight of underground parts increased by 103.73% and 8.30% compared with CK. In the physiological characteristics of tobacco plants, T. harzianum could reduce the inhibition of Phytophthora on photosynthetic pigment accumulation and root activity of tobacco plants, and significantly increase both of them, and it could also strengthen the activities of enzymes related to carbon and nitrogen metabolism in tobacco plants. After transplanting 21 d, the activities of nitrate reductase and glutamine synthetase with T4 treatment increased by 13.14% and 6.40%, respectively. In the control effect, T4 treatment had the lowest incidence and disease index, which were 39.39% and 13.89%, and the highest antioxidant enzyme activity. In conclusion, there were significant differences in the physiological response of tobacco plants to the inoculation sequence of T. harzianum. In production, T. harzianum should be inoculated in advance to promote the growth and development of tobacco and inhibit the incidence of black shank disease. Above results laid a theoretical foundation for the regulation of tobacco growth and development and the comprehensive prevention and control of black shank.

    In order to study the optimum processing conditions of puffed shrimp slices,cassava starch and Penaeusvannamei were used as raw materials. The effects of cooking time, aging time, slice thickness, drying time and frying temperature on the expansion degree and sensory score of the products were studied by single factor test and response surface test. The results showed that optimal processing technology of puffed shrimp slices was determined as follows: cooking time for 33.82 min, aging at 4 ℃ for 24.72 h, sliced into 1~2 mm slices, air dried at 60 ℃ for 4.95 h, and fried at 180 ℃. Under these conditions, the puffed shrimp slices were crispy and delicious, with strong salty taste, good puffing effect, high protein content and reasonable oil content. The sensory analysis of flavor profile showed that the flavor of puffed shrimp slices was evaluated well, with high scores of crispness and fat aroma, moderate sweetness, but slightly greasy, and there was still room for improvement in oil control. Scanning electron microscope analysis confirmed that before frying, the gap, pore volume and pore diameter of shrimp slices were large, so the fried products were crisp and delicious. 21 kinds of flavor compounds in potato chips before frying and 20 kinds after frying were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The result of scanning electron microscopy showed that before frying, the relative content of terpenes, alcohols and aldehydes accounted for a large proportion of the total aroma components, while after frying, the relative content of acids, esters and aldehydes accounted for a large proportion of the total aroma components. The above results provided an experimental and theoretical basis for the industrial application of puffed shrimp slices.

    Aeromonas veronii is an important pathogen in the co-occurrence of humans and fish, causing significant mortality in various aquatic organisms, posing a major threat to aquaculture and public health care. The type Ⅲ secretion system (T3SS) is one of the most critical virulence mechanisms in determining the pathogenicity of Aeromonas species. The transcription factor ExsA of AraC family serves as the main regulatory factor and activates T3SS assembly and effector protein secretion in response to changes in environmental conditions. In order to explore the effect of exsA on the pathogenicity of the A. veronii, this study constructed an exsA gene knockout strain using homologous recombination strategy and tested its biofilm formation, adhesion capabilities, as well as the cytotoxicity of the spent cultural supernatant. The results showed that the deletion of the exsA gene in A. veronii led to a significant decrease of its biofilm formation capability, its adhesion to ex vivo host tissues, and the cytotoxicity of the spent culture supernatants. Compared with the wild type, the ability of the exsA knockout strain to form biofilm was reduced by 1.5 folds. The adhesion to epithelial cells was not significantly changed in exsA knockout strain as compared with the wild type, while the adhesion to ex vivo mouse intestinal tissues decreased by 3.4 folds and the cytotoxicity of bacterial culture supernatants decreases by 1.2 folds. These results proved that exsA plays an important regulatory role in the virulence mechanism of bacterial pathogen, laying a solid foundation for further research on the function of T3SS in the pathogenic mechanism of A. veronii and provided clues for establishing strategies for the control of the aquatic infection.

    Endoplasmic reticulum is the main site of protein folding and post-translational modification in eukaryotic cells. It also participates in the regulation of Ca2+ and lipid storage and synthesis, and has important physiological functions. Herpesviruses is a class of enveloped DNA viruses. The synthesis and processing of its surface glycosylated envelope proteins depends on the endoplasmic reticulum. During virus replication, a large number of synthesized glycosylated envelope proteins are excessive in the endoplasmic reticulum. Accumulation causes endoplasmic reticulum stress (ERS), which in turn leads to unfolded protein response (UPR). Some herpesviruses may have evolved mechanisms to regulate the UPR to create an optimal egoistic environment for the replication process. When they replicate in host cells, they will cause related endoplasmic reticulum UPR signaling cascades, such as cell damage, inflammation, apoptosis, etc. In this paper, the mechanism of endoplasmic reticulum stress/unfolded protein response (ERS/UPR) response to viruses was reviewed, and the molecular mechanism and related signaling pathways of ERS caused by herpes simplex virus type Ⅰ, pseudorabies virus, marek virus, duck enteritis virus and other herpes viruses were expounded, which provided theoretical basis for the research and development of herpes virus-related vaccines and drug targets.

    Compared with traditional breeding technology, modern biological breeding technology has many advantages, such as high efficiency, good precision and short R&D cycle. It has become the research focus in the global seed industry. This article summarized the current development status of biological breeding industrialization in China, and proposed promotion strategies and suggestions based on the problems existing in the industrialization development. In China, modern biological breeding technologies represented by transgenic, gene editing, and genomic selection technologies are progressing in parallel with developed countries, and pilot projects for the industrialization of biological breeding have been initiated. Positive progress has been made in the industrialization of biological breeding in China, with the biological breeding industry becoming an important driver of rural economic development, the establishment of a preliminary technological innovation system across the entire industry chain, and the formation of a basic industrial policy and regulatory system. However, there are still prominent issues that need to be addressed, such as a high dependence on foreign R&D equipment in biological breeding, constraints on key core technologies, weak market competitiveness, and a lag in the supporting system for intellectual property rights in industrial applications of biological breeding. It is urgent to strengthen the construction of the biological breeding organization system, the technology research and development system, the scientific and technological equipment system, and the market supervision system. Emphasis should be placed on cultivating large multinational market entities to provide support for the orderly development of China’s industrialization of biological breeding.

    To study the O174L gene of African swine fever virus (ASFV), the O174L gene was connected to the vector pRK5M-C-2×Strep through homologous recombination, and the eukaryotic expression vector of ASFV was constructed. After PCR amplification and sequencing identification, the recombinant plasmid was transfected into porcine intestinal epithelial cells (IPEC-J2). The expression of O174L protein was detected by immunofluorescence and Western blot. The PCR and sequencing results showed that recombinant plasmid pRK5M-C-2×Strep-O174L was successfully constructed. The results of immunofluorescence and Western blot showed that O174L protein could be stably expressed in IPEC-J2 cells. Bioinformatics analysis of O174L protein showed that the arrangement of the branches and isolates of the phylogenetic tree based on the O174L gene sequence was highly similar to that based on the B646L (p72) gene sequence. Among the 16 isolates from China, the similarity of the O174L gene sequence between the isolates was as high as 96.76%~100.00%. Compared with other type Ⅱ isolates in China, China/2018/AnhuiXCGQ had differences in the 67th, 75th and 110th amino acids of O174L, and GZ201801 had difference in the 110th amino acids. The O174L amino acid sequence of type Ⅰ isolates SD/DY-I/2021 and HeN/ZZ-P1/2021 were different from other Chinese type Ⅱ isolates at 13th, 73th, 93th, 95th, 113th and 114th amino acids, respectively. O174L protein was a stable hydrophilic protein without signal peptide and transmembrane region. The secondary structure of O174L protein was composed of α helix, β strand and random coil, and the prediction result of tertiary structure was consistent with the secondary structure. Above results provided the basis and experimental materials for studying the protein interaction and genetic evolution between ASFV and host.
