Abstract： It is estimated that 60% of teams fail to meet their performance objectives, which presents an important and challenging research topic for the academic community. Emotional intelligence is a concept that includes understanding and managing one’s own emotions as well as those of others in interpersonal relationships. Research has shown that team emotional intelligence plays an important role in a team’s success in achieving goals. However, the extant research mainly examines individuals-based or team as a whole-based team emotional intelligence and there is no research result investigating team emotional intelligence based on the exchange of emotional intelligence behavior among members of the team. To address an important theoretical and empirical gap in the literature, we employed an approach of integrating team-member exchange theory and social network perspective to examine the emotional intelligence within the team at the dyadic level (two individuals in a one-on-one relationship, i.e., actor-target). Specifically, we focused on dyadic emotional intelligence as the smallest unit, which then is aggregated to create a team-level emotional intelligence network structure. We conducted an empirical study of the network composed of the emotional intelligence behavior exchange between individuals in one to one interactions. The research contributes to the literature in three aspects. First, a concept of dyad-based team emotional intelligence is proposed. We argue that the emotional intelligence behavior exchange at the dyadic level in the team can be summarized as the following four aspects: increasing positive energy, increasing negative energy, decreasing positive energy, and decreasing negative energy. Furthermore, we propose the idea of measuring team emotional intelligence by using the total amount of above emotional intelligence behavior exchanges at the dyadic level in the team (i.e., the density of positive behavior and the density of negative behavior) and the distribution pattern of those exchanges (i.e., the dispersion of positive behavior and the dispersion of negative behavior). Second, a process model of team emotional intelligence emergence based on the interplay between the positive emotional experience of individuals and the positive emotional atmosphere of the team is proposed. Specifically, on the one hand, we propose that the emotional intelligence ability as a resource input might influence the individual and team's emotional intelligence behavior expressions in the context of the team through the mediation of individual positive emotional experience at the individual-level and the positive emotional atmosphere at the team-level, separately. On the other hand, on the vertical interface, in addition to both the initial state of emotional intelligence ability as a resource and the resulting state of individual emotional intelligence behavior expressions vertically input from the individual to the team, the positive emotional atmosphere of the team activated by team emotional intelligence would top-down affect the positive emotional experience of the individual generated by emotional intelligence ability, and the positive emotional experience of the individual would also bottom-up affect the positive emotional atmosphere of the team. In this way, the initial individual emotional intelligence develops into a dyad-based team emotional intelligence (i.e., the total amount and the distribution pattern of emotional intelligence behavior exchanges at the dyadic level) through the bottom-up process. Third, the mechanisms through which team emotional intelligence impacts team outcomes (i.e., team task performance and team viability) are proposed. By developing an integrated model, we propose that the dyad-based team emotional intelligence might influence team outcomes by shaping two team processes: one is the team cognitive process (i.e., the ability of team knowledge integration), and the other is the emotional process of the team (i.e., collective affective commitment). Meanwhile, the shaping of the above team processes would be affected by the moderating variable of team task interdependence.

Abstract： Environmental DNA (eDNA) is DNA extracted from any type of environmental sample (e.g. water, soil, sediment, air, mixture, etc.), which is a DNA mixture originated from different species and individuals, distinguish from a pure DNA sample extracted from a particular organism. eDNA monitoring refers the processes that 1) extracting DNA sample from environmental sample, 2) using definite species-specific primers or meta-barcoding primers to amplify and sequence eDNA sample, 3) clustering the operational taxonomic units (OTUs) and identifying their taxa against reference databases, 4) calculating the relative abundance of each OTUs/ species and other biodiversity indexes, 5) analyzing the corresponding ecosystem structure, processes or function. According to eDNA monitoring, a definite species (or other taxonomic units) in the sampling site could be identified, and the biological information about species composition, community structure, ecosystem processes, ecological function of the research area could be collected. eDNA monitoring has been applied in monitoring and early warning definite species, investigating and assessing biodiversity, detecting and analyzing community structure and function, studying and quantifying ecosystem processes and so on. eDNA monitoring could work in any type of environmental scene where there is unidentified DNA trace, such as in terrestrial environment, aquatic environment, air environment, body surface, organism (inner) surface and so on. As an emerging tool for documenting species presence without direct observation, allowing for sensitive and efficient detection, easy-to-standardize sampling and analyzing approach, comprehensive taxonomic groups coverage, less reliant on taxonomic expertise and auditable by third-party researchers, eDNA monitoring would be a prospective general method for species monitoring, community function predicting and ecosystem processes analyzing in future. Moreover, the objective scope of eDNA monitoring covers all environmental conditions and all biological taxonomies. However, to realize the prospective application vision of eDNA monitoring, there are ten crucial links that need to be standardized at both general level and definite level. 1) Design of duplicated samples for a region with definite environment conditions. The number of duplicated samples could be generally identified just using species accumulation curves. 2) Design of sampling time for a region with definite environment conditions. The interval of sampling time could be generally identified by quantifying the degradation ratio or the retention time of the eDNA from different taxonomic organisms in definite environment conditions. 3) Design of sampling sites for a region with definite environment conditions. The distance of sampling sites could be generally identified by quantifying the effective transportation distance or the spatial heterogeneity of the eDNA from different taxonomic organisms in definite environment conditions. 4) Design of sampling method. For different study areas, objects and aims, there are different optimal sample types (water, soil, sediment or other samples). Don’t combine different duplicated samples, or some rare species would be omitted because of their too weak signals. 5) Pretreatment of samples. Pretreatment of samples mainly refers filtration of water samples. It’s suggested that filtering water samples should use finer millipore glass fiber filter. Don’t remove large particles by prefiltering water sample, or some species signals could be removed. 6) Storage of samples. It’s suggested that samples could be stored at -20 or -80 centigrade, except water samples. Water samples should be kept cool in ice bath and be filtered as soon as possible. 7) Choosing of primers. The primers of metabarcoding of the 16S rRNA gene are widely used for detecting bacteria and archaea. The primers of metabarcoding of the ITS and 18S rRNA genes are widely used for detecting fungi. The primers of metabarcoding of the mitochondrial CO1, 12S rRNA and Cyt b genes are widely used for detecting metazoan. Metagenome is another choice for identifying species. 8) Experiment processes of DNA extraction, amplifying, sequencing and analyzing. As the experiment processes are more and more tending to be processed by commercial biolabs, a set of general experimental parameters is needed. 9) Taxonomic identification of OTUs. Good reference databases, either comprehensive reference databases or local customizable reference databases, are required. 10) Post-evaluation of results. Post-evaluation of results mainly pays attention on whether the number of duplicated samples is sufficient, whether the frequency of sampling is suitable, whether the spatial distance between sampling sites is suitable, whether the taxonomic identification of OTUs is accurate. Until now, there is no theoretical difficulty in standardizing these ten crucial links. Now, the mainly work is the accumulation of datasets and knowledge. Some studies on supporting the standardization have been processed. Parts of standardizing works have been organized both at home and abroad. We expect that the accumulation of crucial datasets and knowledge on eDNA monitoring in hot regions could finish in future several years, and then the eDNA monitoring could be a general work, even a long term basic work in hot regions. As the eDNA monitoring could produce comprehensive and standard datasets, along with the long term basic work of eDNA monitoring realizing, the long time series datasets could be used to detect the biodiversity (especially hiddenbiodiversity) variations and study the dynamic and evolution of ecosystem structure, processes, function and health. Moreover, we expect a series of datasets with high quality, rigour, availability and transparency in future to support the open science and the data-intensive scientific discovery and ecosystem management.

Abstract： By proactively changing and crafting their jobs, employees can effectively compensate for the lack of motivation due to a top-down approach adopted by firms. Therefore, our research focuses on job crafting by exploring how to enhance organizational performance via job crafting behaviors enacted by individuals and work teams. First, drawing on the action theory, we flesh out the nature of job crafting behavior and propose a dynamic process model. Accordingly, we elaborate on the dynamic process via which job crafting occurs such that it has interactive implications at the individual and team levels at the same time. Next, we explore how individual job crafting shapes individual job performance via two distinct mediating mechanisms. Last, drawing on a team process view, we delineate how team job crafting contributes to team performance. In summary, our research makes several contributions to the job crafting literature. To start with, it enriches our understanding of the job crafting concept and evolution. Drawing on ontology and action theory, we focus on exploring the definition of job crafting and offer a comprehensive view of the dynamic development of job crafting by revealing two specific processes. In contrast to the consequences of job crafting, the nature of job crafting behaviors is understudied in previous studies. Moreover, far too little attention has been paid to the association between individual and team job crafting. Based on the dynamic process model of job crafting, we provide a nuanced examination of the elements and structures of job crafting activities and explain the interaction between individual job crafting and team job crafting. Therefore, our study not only enhances the knowledge of what job crafting is but also offers insights into how this bottom-up behavior grows and changes.Second, we contribute to the individual job crafting literature by introducing a new theoretical perspective to explore the mechanism of how individual job crafting influences job performance. Previous studies investigating this process are limited to work engagement, job satisfaction, and well-being. These findings, however, have ignored the individuals' self-awareness and adjustments after crafting their jobs. Beyond the traditional theoretical views, such as the JD-R model and social exchange theory, applied in prior research, our study introduces the social distance theory to explain the differential impacts of individual approach and avoidance job crafting on job performance, and reveals the moderating role of task time pressure. This new theoretical perspective advances the outcomes of individual job crafting and encourages more future research to analyze the cognitive mechanisms at the individual level.Third, the present study contributes to the team job crafting literature by examining the mechanisms and boundary conditions. Current research has majorly focused on the effects of job crafting at the individual level. However, few studies have investigated how team job crafting influences team outcomes. In this research, our model addresses the gap by differentiating the mediating roles of team reflection and team conflict in the relationship between team job crafting and team performance. In addition, we highlight that the team transactive memory will moderate these two pathways. By conducting studies from a team-level view, our research contributes to a more thorough understanding of the distinctions between team approach job crafting and team avoidance job crafting, and improves the comprehensiveness of the current theoretical framework of job crafting.Finally, our research extends the application of theories in job crafting literature by building a flow-based integrative model. Previous studies have mainly focused on individual social learning, job demands and resources, and attribution theory to explain the effects of job crafting. In this study, we integrate theories from different levels and explore changes and links in the job crafting process by the flow, instead of particular variables. Additionally, the flow-based model will contribute to empirical studies and managerial practices. Key words

Abstract： One oxidation-condensate immersion cyclic method was used to simulate muffler internal service environment under the long-distance driving conditions. The corrosion behavior of type 409, 429, 436, 439 and 441 stainless steels was investigated in the condensate solutions. The results show that the oxidation/corrosion product films on the surfaces of these five steels are mainly composed of Cr2O3 and Fe2O3. The alloying elements Cr and Mo play the most important role in the resistance of product films and charge transfer processes on steel surfaces. Pit depth decreases in order of 409, 439, 441, 429 and 436, but there is small depth difference between 439 and 441 as well as 429 and 436. Moreover, these five stainless steels show good pit resistance in the simulated processes of long-distance driving trips.

Abstract： The corrosion behavior of type 304 and 441 stainless steels was investigated in a simulated environment of diesel exhaust selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system by using a two step tests, i.e. first the steels were suffered from hot exhaust gas oxidation at 600 ℃ for 100 h and then immersed in a simulated condensates solution at 80 ℃ to reveal their electrochemical corrosion characteristics. The results indicate that, after oxidation at 600 ℃ in the exhaust gases with and without addition of urea respectively, 441 stainless steel shows passive corrosion state in the condensates solution, whereas 304 stainless steel is in active corrosion state. After polarization curve measurements, some pits formed on 441 stainless steel surface, and intergranular corrosion feature was observed on parts of 304 stainless steel surface. After the oxidation in hot exhaust gas with addition of urea, the aforementioned localized corrosion for both 304 and 441 stainless steels can be accelerated during the subsequent corrosion in the condensates solution.

Abstract：本试验以活体肉仔鸡为研究对象，以静脉注射方式外源导入促肾上腺皮质激素释放因子（CRF），分析肉仔鸡采食量的变化和下丘脑、肠道中食欲调控相关基因的表达情况，对CRF在肉仔鸡食欲调控中的作用进行探究。选取体重相近的1日龄雄性爱拔益加（AA）肉仔鸡20只，7日龄时随机分为2个组，每组10只鸡，单笼单饲。试验组肉仔鸡于10日龄08:00翅静脉注射1 000.0 μg/kg BW的CRF，对照组同时注射等量的生理盐水。注射2 h后，统计采食量，10日龄10:00进行屠宰取样，利用实时荧光定量PCR（RT-PCR）检测下丘脑、十二指肠、空肠和回肠中食欲相关基因胃饥饿素、促肾上腺皮质激素释放因子受体（CRFR）1、CRFR2、生长激素促分泌素受体-1α(GHSR-1α)mRNA相对表达量。结果表明，与对照组相比，静脉注射CRF显著降低了肉仔鸡采食量（P<0.05）；显著提高了肉仔鸡下丘脑中胃饥饿素和CRFR1 mRNA相对表达量（P<0.05），而下丘脑中CRFR2和GHSR-1α mRNA相对表达量无显著变化（P＞0.05）；显著提高了肉仔鸡十二指肠、空肠和回肠中CRFR1、CRFR2和GHSR-1α mRNA相对表达量（P<0.05），显著降低了十二指肠胃饥饿素mRNA相对表达量（P<0.05），而在空肠和回肠中胃饥饿素mRNA相对表达量无显著变化（P＞0.05）。由此可见，静脉注射CRF能降低肉仔鸡采食量，诱导中枢胃饥饿素的基因表达，下丘脑CRFR1、胃饥饿素以及肠道CRFR1、CRFR2、GHSR-1a基因表达上调导致的食欲抑制可能是造成采食量下降的原因。

Abstract： Objective To establish a two-step pretargeting approach to lymphoma radioimmunoimaging in mice using biotinynaled CD45 monoclonal antibody (McAb) and 188 Re-avidin in a tumor-bearing mouse model. Methods Six Nod-Scid mice bearing lymphoma cell xenograft were randomized to receive either an intravenous injection of 50 μg/200 μL biotinyled CD45 McAb followed 24 h later by an intraperitoneal injection of 3.7 MBq (50 μg/100 μL) 188Re-avidin (two-step pretargeting group), or a single intravenous injection of 3.7 MBq (100 μg/100 μL) 188Re-CD45 McAb (control group). SPECT was performed at 0.5, 1, 6 and 23 h post-injection to characterize 188Re isotope biodistribution. At 24 h pos-injection, the mice were sacrificed for measurement of radioactivity uptake in the tumor and normal tissues and calculation of the tumor-to-non-tumor (T/NT) ratios. Results SPECT showed that the two-step pretargeting method resulted in a low radioactivity in the blood pool during the imaging and a concentrated radioactivity in the liver and spleen. The transplanted tumor began to be displayed at 1 h post-injection and was clearly displayed at 1-6 h; the images were clear even at 23 h. With the two-step pretargeting method, the radioactive uptake at 24 h post-injection were (1.34±0.52)%, (6.77±2.32)%, and (2.81±1.25)% in the tumor, kidney and liver, respectively, with low radioactivity levels in other organs and high tumor/blood and tumor/muscle ratios (4.28±0.82 and 8.00± 0.88, respectively). In the control group, SPECT revealed intense radioactivity in the liver, spleen, and kidneys with obscure display of the tumor; at 20 h, the radioactivity in the blood pool remained high but that in the tumor was low, and the tumor/ blood and tumor/muscle ratios at 24 h were only 0.58±0.06 and 3.21±0.24, respectively. Conclusion Compared with 188Re-CD45 McAb, the two-step pretargeting approach exhibits a good specificity in targeting lymphoma with an increased T/NT ratio in mice and allows early tumor display at 1 h post-injection.

Abstract： Watershed biological information flow (WBIF) is defined as the path, processes and control of biological information transport, exchange, interaction and feedback among different spaces and systems along with watershed ecosystem processes, and could be partly described as the land-to-river and upstream-to-downstream bioinformation transportation (including organisms, nucleic acids, peptides and other biomarkers), which is driven by the hydrologic processes of watershed systems. The WBIF labels the transport of organic matter and energy. The WBIF integrates the ecological processes of environmental DNA (eDNA), including the origin, state, transport, and fate of eDNA, and makes it possible that the species composition in river system is monitored and assessed using eDNA. The WBIF estimation is the key for watershed ecosystem processes studying and riverine biodiversity monitoring. However, in practice, the parallel samples in each sampling site always are limited. And how parallel samples would impact WBIF estimation is unknown. Based on the principles of sampling survey, we hypothesized that parallel samples would not impact the accuracy of the WBIF estimation, but affect the precision of the WBIF estimation. Then, we transformed this hypothesis into a set of formulas and tested it with a series of analog computation. Results showed that the number of parallel samples (efficiency of detection) affected both the accuracy and precision of the WBIF estimation. The optimal WBIF estimation was less than the actual WBIF in any condition. Along with the increase of parallel samples (efficiency of detection), the optimal WBIF estimation gradually neared to the actual WBIF, the range of WBIF estimation gradually focused on the actual WBIF. In other words, more parallel samples (higher efficiency of detection) led higher accuracy and precision of the WBIF estimation. In addition, the actual WBIF affected both the accuracy and precision of the WBIF estimation too. Larger actual WBIF led higher accuracy and precision of the WBIF estimation. The relative relationship between the number of biological information types in upstream and downstream samples affected both the accuracy and precision of the WBIF estimation too. The accuracy and precision of WBIF estimation would be higher when the number of biological information types in upstream samples was more than those in downstream samples. So, we suggest that in the work of watershed ecosystem processes studying and riverine biodiversity monitoring, the relationship between parallel sample number and detection efficiency should be assessed, the suitable parallel sample number should be estimated based on the reliability target of WBIF estimation, the sampling program should be designed with suitable parallel samples, the WBIF should be estimated based on all parallel samples of each sampling site, at last the estimated results of WBIF should be re-evaluated according to the posterior probability of WBIF in different conditions. The current work provided the framework and methodology reference for the post-evaluation.

Abstract： Background Chronic kidney disease（CKD）is the eleventh leading cause of death globally，and the burden of disease and economic impact caused by it is increasing rapidly. Its disability and mortality rates have exhibited the highest increase among all chronic diseases. Insulin resistance（IR）and obesity are closely associated with the onset and progression of，and triglyceride-glucose（TyG）index can serve as a substitute indicator for IR. Nevertheless，the exact relationship between the TyG index and the development of CKD remains to be fully elucidated. Objective Through a cohort study，we aim to investigate the relationship between triglyceride-glucose（TyG）index and its combination with obesity indices in relation to the occurrence of CKD. Methods This retrospective cohort study selected 4 921 adult participants who underwent annual physical examinations at the Sichuan Provincial People's Hospital Health Management & Physical Examination from January 2015 to November 2022，according to specific inclusion and exclusion criteria. The study cohort was categorized into four groups based on quartiles of the baseline triglyceride-glucose （TyG） index：Q1（5.43-6.66），Q2（6.67-7.04）， Q3（7.05-7.43），and Q4（7.43-9.97），with 1 230 participants in each group，Obesity-related indices including waist circumference（WC），body mass index（BMI），and waist-to-hip ratio（WHR），were combined with the TyG index to form TyG-WC，TyG-BMI，and TyG-WHR indices. Based on the quartiles of the baseline TyG-WC index，the study subjects were divided into 4 groups，Q1（204.49-523.14），Q2（523.15-593.21），Q3（593.22-657.16），and Q4（657.17- 992.75），with sample sizes of 1 230，1 232，1 229 and 1 230，respectively. Based on the quartiles of the baseline TyG-BMI index，the study subjects were divided into 4 groups，Q1（92.43-149.16），Q2（149.17-168.43），Q3（168.49-188.92）， and Q4（88.93-306.64），with sample sizes of 1 228，1 231，1 232 and 1 230，respectively. Based on the quartiles of the baseline TyG-WHR index，the study subjects were divided into 4 groups，Q1（2.76-5.66），Q2（5.67-6.26），Q3（6.27- 6.83），and Q4（6.84-9.67），with sample sizes of 1 230，1 230，1 231 and 1 230，respectively. The relationship between the TyG index and its combination with obesity indices and the incidence risk of CKD was examined by a Cox proportional hazards model，while a restricted cubic spline regression（RCS）was used to assess dose-response relationships. Results At the end of follow-up，there were 139 new cases of CKD in the study cohort，with an incidence rate of 2.8%. After accounting for potential confounding factors，the results showed that compared to the TyG index Q1 group，the TyG index Q4 group exhibited a significantly elevated risk of CKD incidence（HR=1.756，95%CI：1.010-3.054）. Compared to the TyG-WC index Q1 group， the TyG-WC index Q4 group demonstrated a significantly higher risk of CKD incidence（HR=2.532，95%CI：1.210-5.296）， with P values <0.05. There was a non-linear dose-response relationship between the TyG index and the risk of CKD incidence （Pnonlinearity=0.048），with higher TyG index values（>6.93）associated with a greater risk of CKD incidence. The TyG-WC index had a linear dose-response relationship with the risk of CKD incidence（Pnonlinearity=0.078），with an increasing trend of CKD incidence risk with increasing TyG-WC index values. Conclusion Both TyG and TyG-WC are risk factors for CKD， controlling for TyG and WC can effectively prevent and manage CKD，this finding holds great importance for the prevention and treatment of CKD.

Abstract：植被新建是保护和改善热带珊瑚岛生态系统的关键环节，热带珊瑚岛极端干旱生境是影响植物存活和定居的主要限制因子之一，因此选取适生植物对热带珊瑚岛植被新建至关重要。通过测定在海南省文昌市苗圃和热带珊瑚岛上的草海桐（Scaevola taccada）、厚藤（Ipomoea pescaprae）、木麻黄（Casuarina equisetifolia）、花生（Arachis hypogaea）、椰子（Cocos nucifera）5种植物的光合/水力相关功能性状，探讨植物对热带珊瑚岛生境的适应性。研究发现：与对照（文昌苗圃）相比，热带珊瑚岛上的草海桐、厚藤、木麻黄最大光合速率（Amax）均显著升高；除椰子外，其余4种植物的比叶面积（SLA）降低，长期水分利用效率升高（其中木麻黄和花生升高显著）；5种植物的叶片碳含量（LC）均有不同程度降低。此外，厚藤、木麻黄、椰子的叶片导水率（Kleaf）显著升高；厚藤和花生的叶片膨压丧失点（Ψtlp）显著降低；厚藤和木麻黄的气孔导度（gs）显著升高。研究结果表明草海桐、椰子、花生主要通过非气孔调节方式（提高Kleaf，降低Ψtlp、SLA等）适应热带珊瑚岛干旱环境；而厚藤和木麻黄同时通过气孔调节（降低gs）及非气孔调节（提高Kleaf，降低Ψtlp、SLA等）两种方式促进植物碳同化和水分利用。综上所述，草海桐、厚藤、木麻黄具有更高的光合能力和水分利用效率，能有效协调碳同化和水分利用，表现出良好的适应能力，适合用于热带珊瑚岛的植被新建。
