Of note, all participants were slower to respond to Facebook-related and pleasant Go trials compared with unpleasant and neutral pictures. Consistently, the Nogo-N2 amplitude was larger to Facebook-related than all other picture contents in both groups. Overall, the findings suggest that PSNSU is associated with reduced inhibitory control. These results should be considered in the debate about the neural correlates of PSNSU, suggesting more similarities than differences between PSNSU and addictive behaviors.A novel actinomycete, strain HBU206404T, belonging to the genus Actinokineospora, was isolated from the lakeside soil of Baiyangdian, in China. Cells grew at 9-37 °C (optimum temperature, 28 °C) and pH 6-9 (optimum, pH 7). Meso-diaminopimelic acid was the diagnostic diamino acid of the cell-wall peptidoglycan, and sugars present in whole-cell hydrolysates were arabinose, mannose, glucose and galactose. The predominant menaquinone was MK-9(H4). The predominant cellular fatty acids (> 5%) of the strain HBU206404T were iso-C160 (21.5%), iso-C150 (20.3%), C161ω7c/C161ω6c and/or C161ω6c/C161ω7c (15.0%), iso-C170 (8.6%), C160 (7.0%) and C171ω8c (6.9%). The major polar lipids of the strain HBU206404T were diphosphatidylglycerol, phosphatidylethanolamine, phosphatidylcholine, phosphatidylglycerol, six unknown aminolipids, two unknown aminolipids and an unidentified lipid. The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis indicated that the strain HBU206404T was most closely related to Actinokineospora alba KCTC 19294T (99.58%), but whole-genome comparisons, using average nucleotide identity (ANI) value (91.77%) and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH) value (60%), confirmed low genome relatedness. Nitrogen metabolism pathway was found in the genome of strain HBU206404T which haboured nitrate reductase and nitrite reductase. Other phenotypic characteristics, such as ability to hydrolyze substances, enzyme activity, acid production from carbon source, etc., could also distinguish strain HBU206404T from Actinokineospora alba KCTC 19294T. On the basis of genetic and phenotypic evidence, strain HBU206404T represents a novel species of the genus Actinokineospora, for which the name Actinokineospora xionganensis sp. nov. is proposed. The type strain is HBU206404T (= MCCC 1K04412T = KCTC 49404T).Extreme natural habitats like halophytes, marsh land, and marine environment are suitable arena for chemical ecology between plants and microbes having environmental impact. Endophytes are an ecofriendly option for the promotion of plant growth and to serve as sustainable resource of novel bioactive natural products. The present study, focusing on biodiversity of bacterial endophytes from Salicornia brachiata, led to isolation of around 336 bacterial endophytes. Phylogenetic analysis of 63 endophytes revealed 13 genera with 27 different species, belonging to 3 major groups Firmicutes, Proteobacteria, and Actinobacteria. 30% endophytic isolates belonging to various genera demonstrated broad-spectrum antibacterial and antifungal activities against a panel of human, plant, and aquatic infectious agents. An endophytic isolate Bacillus amyloliquefaciens 5NPA-1, exhibited strong in-vitro antibacterial activity against human pathogen Staphylococcus aureus and phytopathogen Xanthomonas campestris. Investigation through LC-MS/MS-based molecular networking and bioactivity-guided purification led to the identification of three bioactive compounds belonging to lipopeptide class based on 1H-, 13C-NMR and MS analysis. To our knowledge, this is the first report studying bacterial endophytic biodiversity of Salicornia brachiata and the isolation of bioactive compounds from its endophyte. Overall, the present study provides insights into the diversity of endophytes associated with the plants from the extreme environment as a rich source of metabolites with remarkable agricultural applications and therapeutic properties.
