Positive selection on rare variants of IGF1R and BRD4 underlying the cold adaptation of wild boar by Jianhai Chen, Ivan Jakovlić, Mikhail Sablin, Shengqian Xia, Zhixiang Xu, Yapin Guo, Renzuo Kuang, Jie Zhong, Yangying Jia, Nhien Thuy Thi Tran, Hao Yang, Hong Ma, Nikica Šprem, Jianlin Han, Di Liu, Yunxia Zhao, Shuhong Zhao

“…The variant rs341219502 in the IGF1R enhancer and the variant rs327139795 in the BRD4 exon, both of which were under positive selection and nearly fixed in populations from cold regions, suggest they may have originated de novo in these populations. Further analysis indicated that rs341219502 could influence enhancer function, while rs327139795 may affect amino acid alterations. …”

Emergence and characterization of a ST852 Klebsiella quasipneumoniae clinical isolate coharboring blaNDM-1 and blaKPC-2 in China by Chongmei Tian, Yaping Zhao, Su Dong, Zhixin You, Jingbai Chen, Hongfeng Xu, Yuejuan Fang, Yapei Zhang

“…Tracking of the blaKPC-2 plasmids showed they were identified in different species in different countries, including E. coli, Leclercia sp., Pantoea sp., and E. hormaechei. Global analysis data showed 13 ST852 strains were mainly isolated from China (84.62%, 11/13), and the remaining isolates were collected from Switzerland.ConclusionsThis is the first study to identify an ST852 NDM-1-KPC-2 coproducing K. quasipneumoniae clinical isolate. …”

Control Indicators for Typical Persistent Organic Pollutants in Lake Sediments by LUO Xi, XIE Xiao-jing, XU Cheng-jian, ZHANG Lu, YAN Dan, TANG Qiang

“…For SCCPs control, a threshold of 900 ng/g was first proposed for non-fishery lakes (derived from ecological risk thresholds), while lakes used for fishery purposes required dynamic adjustments based on surrounding agricultural land data. The research demonstrated three breakthroughs: (1) it established for the first time China’s control indicator system for POPs in lake sediments, filling technical gaps in standards like GB 36600—2018 for dredging projects. (2) It revealed a high spatial correlation (R2>0.85) between POPs and heavy metal pollution in Ya’er Lake, proving that dredging according to existing heavy metal standards could simultaneously control POPs risks, thereby significantly reducing remediation costs. (3) It proposed a “function-pollutant-process” integrated control theory, offering a new paradigm for composite pollution remediation. …”
