Summary: Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) play important roles in complex regulatory functions and their dysfunction can lead to various human complex diseases. This study proposes a novel model called Weighted Average Fusion Network Representation learning for predicting LncRNA Target Genes (WAFNRLTG) which utilizes a heterogeneous network and a weighted average fusion network representation learning method. Experimental results show that WAFNRLTG achieves better prediction performance.

Summary: This study investigated the variation of collapse and shrinkage in trees and their relationships with warp in sawn boards. Factors such as extractives content, density, permeability, age, genetics, log position, and radial position of boards were found to influence collapse and shrinkage in Eucalyptus grandis and Eucalyptus grandis-urophylla. The mismatch between radial and tangential collapse in wedges and sawn board specimens suggests the need for further research on anatomical factors affecting collapse in these tree species.

Summary: This study examined the impact of different slash disposal methods on soil qualities. The results showed that the indicators of burning forest and no-burning forest were generally lower than those of the control group, but they differed in terms of soil properties. Burning forest can rapidly improve soil quality, while no-burning forest is more sustainable for the eucalyptus plantation.

Summary: The chloroplast proteome in Eucalyptus grandis undergoes significant changes during leaf development and different seasons. Young leaves have the most distinct chloroplast proteome, while the most upregulated proteins in mature and young leaves are related to catabolic-redox signaling and biogenesis processes, respectively. Seasonal dynamics reveal unique proteome features, with a small subunit of RuBisCO being the most abundant chloroplast protein in humid seasons, and proteins associated with photo-oxidative damage, Calvin cycle, shikimate pathway, and detoxification showing the most pronounced accumulation in dry periods.

Summary: The success of mixed plantation systems is a result of positive and negative interactions between different plant species both above and belowground. This study found that belowground ecological facilitative interactions occur in mixed plantations of Eucalyptus grandis and Alnus formosana, where E. grandis alters its rooting pattern, reduces the release of allelochemicals, recruits more beneficial bacteria, and improves the biochemical properties of the rhizosphere soil. These findings provide useful insights for reforestation programs of Eucalyptus monocultures suffering from low biodiversity and reduced soil fertility.

Summary: This study identified several Myc-induced and Myc-repressed lncRNAs, and found that one of them, KTN1-AS1, plays a critical role in B cell lymphoma. By mediating co-regulation of multiple Myc-target genes and activating key genes involved in cholesterol biosynthesis, KTN1-AS1 supports the growth of lymphoma cells. Therefore, KTN1-AS1 may represent a potential novel therapeutic target in lymphoma.

Summary: This study identified two duplicated genes, MYB158 and MYB189, from Populus tomentosa that originated from a whole genome duplication event. Both genes play a role in negatively regulating secondary cell wall biosynthesis, but MYB158 has a more crucial role in directly regulating the NAC master switch. These findings provide insights into the evolutionary and functional divergence of duplicated genes derived from whole genome duplication.

Summary: Potassium is an essential macronutrient for plant growth, and its deficiency affects Neolamarckia cadamba severely. In response to low K+ stress, N. cadamba showed reduced biomass, chlorophyll levels, and photosynthetic ability, with increased lignification and thicker cell walls. The transcriptome analysis revealed upregulation of K+ uptake and transport genes in roots, while receptor-like protein kinase genes were mostly down-regulated in roots and upregulated in stems and leaves under low K+ conditions. Additionally, genes related to ROS scavenging and lignification pathways were upregulated.

Summary: This study reveals that Class II KNOX family genes KNAT3 and KNAT7 play a positive role in regulating mucilage biosynthesis in Arabidopsis seeds. The double mutant knat3knat7 showed defective production and formation of seed mucilage, while the single mutants showed normal or slightly disturbed phenotype. Furthermore, it was discovered that KNAT3 and KNAT7 act as positive regulators for the key mucilage biosynthetic gene MUM4.

Summary: Hemicellulose from loblolly pine was extracted and used to prepare hemicellulose-polyvinyl alcohol (hemicellulose-PVA) composite film. The study found that hemicellulose with low substitution tends to self-aggregate during film formation, while hemicellulose with high branching has better compatibility with PVA and forms a homogeneous composite film more easily. Additionally, higher molecular weight hemicellulose leads to better mechanical properties of the composite film, and more residual lignin improves its UV shielding ability. This research provides essential support for the efficient utilization of hemicellulose.

Summary: Leaves, as a key plant organ involved in photosynthesis, play a crucial role in plant growth and development. Potassium (K+) deficiency can lead to smaller leaves with necrotic spots, affect the expression of genes related to cell proliferation, cell cycle, and cell expansion, and increase the activity of reactive oxygen species scavenging enzymes. In addition, genes involved in putrescine and ethylene synthesis are upregulated under K+ deficiency, along with an increase in the expression of genes related to ethylene signaling.

Summary: Expenditure isolation of lignin and the understanding of its structural variations during different isolation processes are crucial for the high-value utilization of lignin. This study proposed a green deep eutectic solvent (DES) consisting of choline chloride, ethylene glycol, and 4-chlorobenzene sulfonic acid for rapid lignin separation from poplar. The structural variations of DES lignin and its relationship with alkali pre-extraction of hemicellulose were investigated. The results showed that alkali pretreatment enhanced the DES separation of lignin and promoted the cleavage of specific linkages, resulting in reduced molecular weight and thermal stability of isolated DES lignin. Moreover, DES lignin obtained from integrated utilization displayed higher purity and S/G ratio compared to lignin obtained from direct DES treatment.
