    Metarhizium guizhouense Q.T. Chen & H.L. Guo, Acta Mycol. Sin. 5(3): 181 (1986) (FIGURE. 8) Index Fungorum Number: 130206 Specimen found on stick insects (Phasmatodea). Host’s internodes between abdominal segments were covered with white to pale green mycelium and sporulating conidiophores. Conidiophores arising from hyphae, smooth-walled. Phialides cylindrical, solitary, smooth-walled, 8–18 × 1–1.5 μm. Conidia smooth-walled, pale green to colorless (6.5– 9.5 × 2.5–3 μm), cylindrical, slightly constricted in the middle, round at both ends or tapered at one end. Bi-celled conidium was not observed. Culture characteristics:— Colonies on PDA were relatively slow-growing, fluffy, beginning to white, and the spores appear green, started to produce conidia after 3 days in culture at 25 °C in the laboratory, 17 mm diam. after 10 days. Mature conidia chains are often spread on the surface of the colony in small granular clumps. Hyphae hyaline, separated, branched, about 3 um wide. Material examined:— China, Guizhou Province, Guiyang, on dead stick insects, July 2019, Q.R. L, 2019GY03 (GMB0010), living cultures, GMBC0010 (new host record). Known hosts and distribution:— Guizhou Known hosts:— larvae of Noctuidae sp., stick insects GenBank Numbers:— ITS: MW881444, LSU: MW 881450, RPB2: MW 883344 Note:— Metarhizium guizhouense, isolated on Hepialus sp. in Guizhou China, was introduced by Guo et al. (1986). In 1991, Liang et al. reported a M. taii Z.Q. Liang & A.Y. Liu on larvae of Noctuidae sp. (Lepidoptera). Metacordyceps taii was recognized to be the sexual morph of M. guizhouense by Bischoff et al. (2009). Qu et al. also reported that M. taii should be treated as a synonym of M. guizhouense based on molecular data. This is the first report of M. guizhouense isolated on stick insects (Phasmatodea).Published as part of Wijayawardene, Nalin N., Dissanayake, Lakmali S., Li, Qi-Rui, Dai, Dong-Qi, Xiao, Yuanpin, Wen, Ting-Chi, Karunarathna, Samantha C., Wu, Hai-Xia, Zhang, Huang, Tibpromma, Saowaluck, Kang, Ji-Chuan, Wang, Yong, Shen, Xiang- Chun, Tang, Li-Zhou, Deng, Chun-Ying, Liu, Yanxia & Kang, Yingqian, 2021, Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau: a mycological hotspot, pp. 1-31 in Phytotaxa 523 (1) on page 14, DOI: 10.11646/phytotaxa.523.1.1, http://zenodo.org/record/557197

    Home beyond the house: the meaning of home for people living in Yanxia village, Zhejiang Province, China

    No full text
    Under the guidance of a new policy released by China’s central authority in 2006, which calls for “Building a New Socialist Countryside,” newly planned settlements with rows of nearly identical houses have rapidly emerged in rural China. As a result, rural residents, who, for generations, have lived in the same village in the countryside, are relocated to new settlements. Historic and vernacular houses were demolished; social relations among residents were broken down due to the relocation; cultural traditions were forgotten as the result of their detachment from associated cultural landscapes. The reason behind this phenomenon is the common understanding embraced by scholars and local government officials that new and modern houses are the foundation for creating the new socialist countryside. This policy has broad implications for Chinese society. According to the latest census in 2010, there are 674 million people living in rural China, over 50 percent of the Chinese population, many of whom live in traditional and vernacular built settlements that retain rich and diverse cultural heritage. The reconstruction of the built environments and the relocation of the residents have detached residents from the built environments where their cultural heritage has been rooted and nurtured. This dissertation examines the ways in which tradition has affected the physical, psychological, and social constructions of home for the residents living in Yanxia. This dissertation argues that, in the context of rural China, the nature of vernacular settlements call for an understanding of place and certain aspects of Chinese culture challenge the spatial boundary of house. Thus, the meaning of home for people living in Yanxia goes beyond the physical boundary of the house or the legal boundary of the homestead and is attached to cultural traditions embraced by individuals or shared by the residents of Yanxia. Specifically, the meaning of home for the residents living in Yanxia ties to their bound kinship structure established in the early fourteenth century, their family-based economic practices since the 1850s, and, more importantly, the land on which their houses have been situated for generations. This dissertation integrates the methodologies of ethnographic fieldwork and archival research. In particular, participants were asked to take photographs of aspects of their jia that are meaningful to them. Semi-structured and in-depth interviews then followed focusing on the contents of the photographs. This dataset was triangulated with data obtained from archival research and observations. Situated between the scholarship on place, home, and tradition, this dissertation offers a unique understanding of the role of tradition in the physical, psychological, and social construction of home within the context of the historic and vernacular built environment in rural China. This dissertation expands and advances the literature on place, home, and tradition in vernacular environment and non-western cultures. Moreover, the use of the method of photovoice, empowers the participants, who represent more than 50 percent of the Chinese population yet belong to a social group that is underrepresented in scholarship and underserved in modern China. Finally, this study provides guidance for the local practice of the policy of Building a New Socialist Countryside, which helps to preserve cultural traditions recognized by the residents and to sustain meanings of home.Submission published under a 24 month embargo labeled 'Closed Access', the embargo will last until 2017-05-01The student, Wei Zhao, accepted the attached license on 2015-04-20 at 09:30.The student, Wei Zhao, submitted this Dissertation for approval on 2015-04-20 at 09:52.This Dissertation was approved for publication on 2015-04-22 at 13:34.DSpace SAF Submission Ingestion Package generated from Vireo submission #7943 on 2015-07-22 at 14:25:28Made available in DSpace on 2015-07-22T22:45:34Z (GMT).

    Triple DMARD treatment in early rheumatoid arthritis modulates synovial T cell activation and plasmablast/plasma cell differentiation pathways

    No full text
    Objectives: This study sought to investigate the genome-wide transcriptional effects of a combination of disease modifying anti-rheumatic drugs (tDMARD; methotrexate, sulfasalazine and hydroxychloroquine) in synovial tissues obtained from early rheumatoid arthritis (RA) patients. While combination DMARD strategies have been investigated for clinical efficacy, very little data exists on the potential molecular mechanism of action. We hypothesized that tDMARD would impact multiple biological pathways, but the specific pathways were unknown. Methods: Paired synovial biopsy samples from early RA patients before and after 6 months of tDMARD therapy were collected by arthroscopy (n = 19). These biopsies as well as those from subjects with normal synovium (n = 28) were profiled by total RNA sequencing. Results: Large differences in gene expression between RA and control biopsies (over 5000 genes) were identified. Despite clinical efficacy, the expression of a restricted set of less than 300 genes was reversed after 6 months of treatment. Many genes remained elevated, even in patients who achieved low disease activity. Interestingly, tDMARD downregulated genes included those involved in T cell activation and signaling and plasmablast/plasma cell differentiation and function. Conclusions: We have identified transcriptomic signatures that characterize synovial tissue from RA patients with early disease. Analysis after 6 months of tDMARD treatment highlight consistent alterations in expression of genes related to T cell activation and plasmablast/plasma cell differentiation. These results provide novel insight into the biology of early RA and the mechanism of tDMARD action and may help identify novel drug targets to improve rates of treatment-induced disease remission.Alice M.
