    Description: The circadian clock controls behavior and metabolism in various organisms. However, the exact timing and strength of rhythmic phenotypes can vary significantly between individuals of the same species. This is highly relevant for rhythmically complex marine environments where organismal rhythmic diversity likely permits the occupation of different microenvironments. When investigating circadian locomotor behavior of Platynereis dumerilii, a model system for marine molecular chronobiology, we found strain-specific, high variability between individual worms. The individual patterns were maintained for several weeks. A diel head transcriptome comparison of behaviorally rhythmic versus arrhythmic wild-type worms showed that 24-h cycling of core circadian clock transcripts is identical between both behavioral phenotypes. While behaviorally arrhythmic worms showed a similar total number of cycling transcripts compared to their behaviorally rhythmic counterparts, the annotation categories of their transcripts, however, differed substantially. Consistent with their locomotor phenotype, behaviorally rhythmic worms exhibit an enrichment of cycling transcripts related to neuronal/behavioral processes. In contrast, behaviorally arrhythmic worms showed significantly increased diel cycling for metabolism- and physiology-related transcripts. The prominent role of the neuropeptide pigment-dispersing factor (PDF) in Drosophila circadian behavior prompted us to test for a possible functional involvement of Platynereis pdf. Differing from its role in Drosophila, loss of pdf impacts overall activity levels but shows only indirect effects on rhythmicity. Our results show that individuals arrhythmic in a given process can show increased rhythmicity in others. Across the Platynereis population, rhythmic phenotypes exist as a continuum, with no distinct “boundaries” between rhythmicity and arrhythmicity. We suggest that such diel rhythm breadth is an important biodiversity resource enabling the species to quickly adapt to heterogeneous or changing marine environments. In times of massive sequencing, our work also emphasizes the importance of time series and functional tests.

    Description: Streams, small rivers, are endowed with exclusive energetic dynamics: decomposition of allochthonous material, and formation of microhabitats and ecotones between aquatic communities and riparian vegetation. Regarding this input of organic matter, aquatic fungi make up most of the biomass of organic matter decomposers, they are biomineralizers of foliar nutrients and through decomposition link the matter to the entire trophic network. Aquatic fungi are a polyphyletic group adapted to this environment, and have different taxonomic levels grouped together. These microorganisms are the target of ecological studies due to their important, still their spatial distribution still lacks elucidation, as well as the influence of limnological on biotic parameters. The fungal communities, composition and beta diversity, were investigated in this study separated into two approaches: i) the beta diversity of aquatic fungi in streams under different land uses; ii) the nesting of fungal eDNA sequences in a protected area and an impacted area. The biotic data were obtained from leaf mixes, and represent the biodiversity of the aquatic FUNGA present in streams of the Atlantic Forest, being pioneering studies for the subtropical region. Furthermore, the results may contribute as a basis for future studies within the mycology of aquatic environments. Approach I, in a taxonomic approach, demonstrated fungal diversity in presence of ambiental heterogeneity. Approach II, through metabarcoding, demonstrates the sensitivity of the use of genomic databases in ecological analyses. The results presented here reinforce the need for management and conservation plans for riparian vegetation, which forms the aquatic microecosystem, used by fungi for their decomposition and other ecosystem functions.
    Description: Os riachos, rios de pequena ordem, são dotados de dinâmicas energéticas exclusivas: formação de microhabitats, formação de ecótonos entre comunidades aquáticas e vegetação ripária, e a decomposição deste material alóctone. A respeito deste input de matéria orgânica, os fungos aquáticos compõem a maior parte da biomassa de decompositores de matéria orgânica e atuam como biomineralizadores dos nutrientes foliares ao disponibilizarem à toda rede trófica. Os fungos aquáticos são um grupo polifilético de fungos adaptados a este ambiente, e apresentam diferentes níveis taxonômicos agrupados. Estes microrganismos são alvo de estudos ecológicos devido a sua importância, sua distribuição espacial ainda carece de esclarecimentos, bem como a influência dos parâmetros limnológicos sobre os bióticos. As comunidades fúngicas, composição e beta diversidade, foram investigadas neste estudo separado em duas abordagens: i) a beta diversidade de fungos aquáticos em riachos sob diferentes usos da terra; ii) o aninhamento de sequências de eDNA fúngico em uma área protegida e outra antropizada. Os dados bióticos foram obtidos de mixes de folhas, e representam a biodiversidade da funga aquática dos riachos da Mata Atlântica, sendo estudos pioneiros para a região subtropical. Ademais, as abordagens dispõem de resultados que podem contribuir como base para futuros estudos dentro da micologia de ambientes aquáticos. A primeira abordagem, taxonômica, demonstrou a diversidade fúngica na presença de heterogeneidade ambiental. A segunda abordagem, através do metabarcoding, demonstra a sensibilidade do uso de banco de dados genômicos em análises ecológicas. Os resultados aqui obtidos indicam a necessidade de planos de manejo e conservação da vegetação ripária, que forma o microecossistema aquático, utilizado por fungos para sua decomposição e demais funções ecossistêmicas.

    Description: Environmental changes occur at a global level and are enhanced by human activities, with significant impacts on natural ecosystems by affecting the temperature, nutrient load and input of organic debris in freshwater bodies or aquatic systems. In the first section, we investigated the impacts of increased temperature, nutrient input, predation by fish and a reduction in organic detritus on the community of testate amoebae, rotifers and periphytic cladocerans over 49 experimental days. The second section analyzed the effects of increased temperature, nutrient input and reduced organic detritus on the testate amoeba community during 160 experimental days. The experiments were carried out in mesocosms with three temperature conditions: control (referring to the ambient temperature), constant increase of +4°C and fluctuation between 2°C and 6°C above the control, with and without enrichment by nitrogen and phosphorus, and reduction of organic detritus, controlled by previous additions of this detritus. In relation to the results of the first section, the density of the groups analyzed was significantly impacted by the increase in temperature, while the other stressors explored in this work did not represent a significant influence on the abundance of the communities. As for community composition, the presence of nutrients had a more predominant impact on community structure, although specific species distribution patterns were not identified. For the second section, it was evident that warming resulted in a reduction in species diversity (demonstrated by the Shannon index), with a tendency for species richness to decrease in the face of this stressor. On the other hand, nutrient enrichment was responsible for an increase in richness, with time being a relevant factor in this context. As for changes in community density, nutrients and time emerged as the main factors influencing these changes. Analysis of species diversity using the Shannon index revealed greater diversity in the temperature control treatments, with time exerting a significant influence on community structure throughout the experiment. For species composition, the βtotal diversity analysis highlighted the importance of temperature, presence of detritus and time. The βrepl and βrich components were notably affected by temperature and time, indicating changes in species identity.
    Description: Alterações ambientais ocorrem em níveis globais e são potencializadas por atividades humanas, apresentando impactos expressivos nos ecossistemas naturais ao afetar a temperatura, a carga de nutrientes e o aporte de detritos orgânicos dos corpos de água doce/ ou sistemas aquáticos. Deste modo, investigou-se os impactos do aumento de temperatura, da entrada de nutrientes, da predação por peixes e da redução de detritos orgânicos na comunidade de amebas testáceas, rotíferos e cladóceros perifíticos por 49 dias experimentais. Analisou-se os efeitos do aumento da temperatura, aporte de nutrientes e diminuição de detritos orgânicos na comunidade de amebas testáceas durante 160 dias experimentais. Os experimentos foram realizados em mesocosmos com três condições de temperatura: controle (referente à temperatura ambiente), aumento constante de +4°C e flutuação entre 2°C e 6°C acima do controle, com e sem enriquecimento por nitrogênio e fósforo, e redução de detritos orgânicos, controlado por adições prévias deste detrito. Em relação aos resultados, a densidade dos grupos analisados foi significativamente impactada pelo aumento da temperatura, enquanto os demais estressores explorados neste trabalho não representaram uma influência significativa para a abundância das comunidades. Quanto à composição das comunidades, a presença de nutrientes teve um impacto de maior predominância na estrutura da comunidade, embora padrões específicos de distribuição de espécies não tenham sido identificados. Em evidência, destaca-se que o aquecimento resultou na redução da diversidade de espécies (demonstrada pelo índice de Shannon), com tendência de diminuição da riqueza de espécies frente a este estressor. Em contrapartida, o enriquecimento por nutrientes foi responsável pelo aumento da riqueza, sendo o tempo um fator relevante nesse contexto. Quanto às alterações na densidade da comunidade, os fatores nutrientes e tempo emergiram como os principais influenciadores dessas mudanças. A análise da diversidade de espécies utilizando o índice de Shannon, revelou maiores diversidades nos tratamentos com temperatura controle, com o tempo exercendo uma influência significativa na estrutura da comunidade ao longo do experimento. Para a composição das espécies, a análise de diversidade βtotal destacou a importância da temperatura, presença de detritos e tempo. Os componentes βrepl e βrich foram notavelmente afetados por temperatura e tempo, indicando mudanças na identidade das espécies.

    Description: Plantation-grown Eucalyptus (Myrtaceae) and other trees residing in the Myrtales have been widely planted in southern China. These fungal pathogens include species of Cryphonectriaceae that are well-known to cause stem and branch canker disease on Myrtales trees. During recent disease surveys in southern China, sporocarps with typical characteristics of Cryphonectriaceae were observed on the surfaces of cankers on the stems and branches of Myrtales trees. In this study, a total of 164 Cryphonectriaceae isolates were identified based on comparisons of DNA sequences of the partial conserved nuclear large subunit (LSU) ribosomal DNA, internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions including the 5.8S gene of the ribosomal DNA operon, two regions of the β-tubulin (tub2/tub1) gene, and the translation elongation factor 1-alpha (tef1) gene region, as well as their morphological characteristics. The results showed that eight species reside in four genera of Cryphonectriaceae occurring on the genera Eucalyptus, Melastoma (Melastomataceae), Psidium (Myrtaceae), Syzygium (Myrtaceae), and Terminalia (Combretaceae) in Myrtales. These fungal species include Chrysoporthe deuterocubensis, Celoporthe syzygii, Cel. eucalypti, Cel. guangdongensis, Cel. cerciana, a new genus and two new species, as well as one new species of Aurifilum. These new taxa are hereby described as Parvosmorbus gen. nov., Par. eucalypti sp. nov., Par. guangdongensis sp. nov., and Aurifilum terminali sp. nov. Pathogenicity tests showed that the eight species of Cryphonectriaceae are pathogenic to two Eucalyptus hybrid seedlings, Melastoma sanguineum branches, and Psidium guajava and Syzygium jambos seedlings. The overall data showed that Chr. deuterocubensis is the most aggressive, followed by Par. eucalypti. Significant differences in tolerance were observed between the two tested Eucalyptus hybrid genotypes, suggesting that disease-tolerant genotypes can be selected for disease management in the Eucalyptus industry.

    Description: We present a multilocus phylogeny of the class Dacrymycetes, based on data from the 18S, ITS, 28S, RPB1, RPB2, TEF-1α, 12S, and ATP6 DNAregions, with c. 90 species including the types of most currently accepted genera. A variety of methodological approaches was used to infer phylogenetic relationships among the Dacrymycetes, from a supermatrix strategy using maximum likelihood and Bayesian inference on a concatenated dataset, to coalescence-based calculations, such as quartet-based summary methods of independent single-locus trees, and Bayesian integration of single-locus trees into a species tree under the multispecies coalescent. We evaluate for the first time the taxonomic usefulness of some cytological phenotypic characters, i.e., vacuolar contents (vacuolar bodies and lipid bodies), number of nuclei of recently discharged basidiospores, and pigments, with especial emphasis on carotenoids. These characters, along with several others traditionally used for the taxonomy of this group (basidium shape, presence and morphology of clamp connections, morphology of the terminal cells of cortical/ marginal hyphae, presence and degree of ramification of the hyphidia), are mapped on the resulting phylogenies and their evolution through the class Dacrymycetes discussed. Our analyses reveal five lineages that putatively represent five different families, four of which are accepted and named. Three out of these four lineages correspond to previously circumscribed and published families (Cerinomycetaceae, Dacrymycetaceae, and Unilacrymaceae), and one is proposed as the new family Dacryonaemataceae. Provisionally, only a single order, Dacrymycetales, is accepted within the class. Furthermore, the systematics of the two smallest families, Dacryonaemataceae and Unilacrymaceae, are investigated to the species level, using coalescence-based species delimitation on multilocus DNAdata, and a detailed morphological study including morphometric analyses of the basidiospores. Three species are accepted in Dacryonaema, the type, Da. rufum, the newly combined Da. macnabbii (basionym Dacrymyces macnabbii), and a new species named Da. macrosporum. Two species are accepted in Unilacryma, the new U. bispora, and the type, U. unispora, the latter treated in a broad sense pending improved sampling across the Holarctic

    Description: Magma convection, where low-viscosity, gas-rich magma ascends, degasses, and crystallizes before sinking down the same conduit in either annular or side-by-side flows, has been proposed for active basaltic volcanoes, where excess gas fluxes relative to erupted lava volume can be observed. Experimental studies show that convection is produced by buoyant ascending gas-rich magma and descending degassed magmas following density difference contrast, while geophysical studies point to the endogenous growth of active volcanoes through magma accumulation in plutons. However, many aspects of the convection process remain unclear, in particular, the depth to which magma ascends before overturning. Models have been proposed where overturn occurs near the surface and also at depths greater than 2 km from the top of the magma-filled conduit. The long-term monitoring of volcanic gas compositions may reveal new insights into the convection process, as each gas has a unique solubility-pressure profile. We report measurements of SO2 and HCl gas fluxes from Etna between October 2007 and May 2011, in which an ~90% collapse in halogen flux was observed together with an effusive eruption. This observation indicates that the halogen fluxes, during quiescent periods on Etna, require both magma supply to the shallowest levels and a period of residence. The lava effusion has the effect of reducing the shallow residence time, drastically reducing the halogen flux. These results provide a new interpretative framework for the degassing process and gas composition monitoring to explain subtle variations in magma supply and residence times in basaltic volcanism.

    Description: In a recent work, we applied the every earthquake a precursor according to scale (EEPAS) probabilistic model to the pseudo-prospective forecasting of shallow earthquakes with magni- tude M 5.0 in the Italian region. We compared the forecasting performance of EEPAS with that of the epidemic type aftershock sequences (ETAS) forecasting model, using the most recent consistency tests developed within the collaboratory for the study of earthquake predictabil- ity (CSEP). The application of such models for the forecasting of Italian target earthquakes seems to show peculiar characteristics for each of them. In particular, the ETAS model showed higher performance for short-term forecasting, in contrast, the EEPAS model showed higher forecasting performance for the medium/long-term. In this work, we compare the performance of EEPAS and ETAS models with that obtained by a deterministic model based on the occur- rence of strong foreshocks (FORE model) using an alarm-based approach. We apply the two rate-based models (ETAS and EEPAS) estimating the best probability threshold above which we issue an alarm. The model parameters and probability thresholds for issuing the alarms are calibrated on a learning data set from 1990 to 2011 during which 27 target earthquakes have occurred within the analysis region. The pseudo-prospective forecasting performance is as- sessed on a validation data set from 2012 to 2021, which also comprises 27 target earthquakes. Tests to assess the forecasting capability demonstrate that, even if all models outperform a purely random method, which trivially forecast earthquake proportionally to the space–time occupied by alarms, the EEPAS model exhibits lower forecasting performance than ETAS and FORE models. In addition, the relative performance comparison of the three models demonstrates that the forecasting capability of the FORE model appears slightly better than ETAS, but the difference is not statistically significant as it remains within the uncertainty level. However, truly prospective tests are necessary to validate such results, ideally using new testing procedures allowing the analysis of alarm-based models, not yet available within the CSEP.

    Description: New fault trace mapping and structural survey of the active faults outcropping within the epicentral area of the Campania-Lucania 1980 normal fault earthquake (Mw 6.9) are integrated with a revision of pre-existing earthquake data and with an updated interpretation of the CROP-04 near-vertical seismic profile to reconstruct the surface and depth geometry, the kinematics and stress tensor of the seismogenic fault pattern. Three main fault alignments, organized in high-angle en-echelon segments of several kilometers in length, are identified and characterized. The inner and intermediate ones, i.e. Inner Irpinia (InIF) and Irpinia Faults (IF), dip eastward; the outer Antithetic Fault (AFA) dips westward. Both the InIF and the IF strike NW-SE along the northern and central segments and rotate to W-E along the southern segments for at least 16 km. We provide evidence of surface coseismic faulting (up to 1 m) not recognized before along the E-W segments and document coseismic ruptures with maximum vertical displacement up to ∼1 m where already surveyed from other investigators 40 years ago. Fault/slip data from surface data and a new compilation of focal mechanisms (1980 – 2018) were used for strain and stress analyses to show a coherent NNE-directed least principal stress over time and at different crustal depths, with a crustal-scale deviation from the classic SW-NE tensional direction across the Apennines of Italy. The continuation at depth of the outcropping faults is analyzed along the trace of the CROP-04 profile and with available hypocentral distributions. Integrating all information, a 3D seismotectonic model, extrapolated to the base of the seismogenic layer, is built. It outlines a graben-like structure with a southern E-W bend developed at depth shallower than 10–12 km, at the hanging wall of an extensional NE- to E-dipping extensional basal detachment. In our interpretation, such a configuration implies a control in the stress transfer during the 1980 earthquake ruptures and provides a new interpretation of the second sub-event, occurred at 20 s. Our reconstruction suggests that the latter ruptured a hanging wall NNE-dipping splay of the E-W striking main fault segment and possibly also an antithetic SSW-dipping splay, in two in-sequence episodes.

    Description: The Cerro Blanco Caldera (CBC) is the youngest collapse caldera system in the Southern Central Andes (Southern Puna, Argentina). The CBC is subsiding with at an average velocity of 0.87 cm/year and hosts an active geothermal system. A geochemical characterization of emitted fluids was carried out based on the chemical and isotopic compositions of fumaroles, and thermal and cold springs discharged in this volcanic area with the aim of constructing the first hydrogeochemical conceptual model and preliminary estimate the geothermal potential. The main hydrothermal reservoir, likely hosted within the pre-caldera basement rocks, has a Na+-Clˉ(HCO3)ˉ composition with estimated temperatures ≥135 °C. The unconsolidated, fine-grained Cerro Blanco ignimbrite likely acts as the cap-rock of the hydrothermal system. The presence of phreatic eruption breccias in the surrounding area of the geothermal fumaroles supports the effectiveness of the pyroclastic deposit as sealing rocks. The isotopic data of water (δ18O and δD) indicate a meteoric recharge of the hydrothermal reservoir, suggesting as recharge areas the sectors surrounding the CBC, mainly towards the W and NW where large outcrops of the pre-caldera basement exist. A fault-controlled hydraulic connection between the hot springs and the hydrothermal reservoir is proposed for the Los Hornitos area. The fumaroles show the typical compositional features of hydrothermal fluids, being dominated by water vapor with significant concentrations of H2S, CH4 and H2. Considering the high geothermal gradient of this area (∼104 °C/km) and the relatively high fraction of mantle He (∼39%) calculated on the basis of the measured R/Ra values, the hydrothermal aquifer likely receives inputs of magmatic fluids from the degassing magma chamber. The preliminary geothermal potential at CBC was evaluated with the Volume Method, calculating up to E = 11.4*1018 J. Both the scarce presence of superficial thermal manifestations and the occurrence of an efficient cap-rock likely contribute to minimize the loss of thermal energy from the reservoir. The results here presented constitute the necessary base of knowledge for further accurate assessment of the geothermal potential and ultimately the implementation of the geothermal resource as a viable energy alternative for small localities or mining facilities isolated from the National Interconnected System due to their remote localization.

    Description: On Venus, radar observations of the surface have highlighted two categories of craters: bright-floored, interpreted as pristine, and dark-floored, interpreted as being partially filled by lava. While volcanic resurfacing occurs within and outside craters in the plains, it seems mainly concentrated within the interior of dark-floored craters in the crustal plateaus, suggesting that the magma is negatively buoyant there. Indeed, crater unloading may facilitate vertical ascent of a negatively buoyant magma by decompressing the underlying crust. However, the crater topography also generates a shear stress which would tend to horizontalize the vertical propagation of a dyke. We use numerical simulations of magma ascent in an axisymmetric crater stress field to demonstrate that, depending on the crust thickness and the magma-crust density contrast, a negatively buoyant magma can indeed erupt only in the crater interior while remaining stored in the crust elsewhere. In particular, we identify four different behaviors depending on if and where a magma-filled crack ascending below a crater reaches the surface. We draw a regime diagram as a function of two characteristic dimensionless numbers. For eruption to occur only in the crater interior requires a crust thinner than 45 km and a limited range of magma-crust density contrasts, between 40 and 280 kg m−3 for crust thicknesses between 20 and 45 km, the permissible range decreasing for increasing crustal thicknesses. These results suggest that the crustal plateaus may not be particularly thick and could be slightly differentiated, but probably not very felsic.
