However, leaf rust greatly reduces foxtail millet yields in susceptible varieties when weather conditions favor rust spread and development. Therefore, it is necessary to use molecular markers detecting and marking resistance genes. Compared with other molecular markers, AFLP maker is more efficient and powerful in the study of foxtail millet. In this study, AFLP analysis of 131 F2 individuals was performed and three AFLP makers were found to be linked to the rust resistance gene, with the genetic distances of 9.2, 9.8 and 12.4 cM, respectively. Cloning of rust re- sistance genes is of great importance and meaning in studying rust resistance of foxtail millet in the future. Furthermore, we may convert specific AFLP markers into single locus PCR markers, such as sequence characterised amplified region (SCAR) markers or cleaved amplified polymorphic site (CAPS) markers.展开更多

According to the standards of earthquake cases in China, the criteria of the precursory anomalies are determined, and 53 distinguished. The characteristics of these anomalies before the M_S8.1 earthquake are analyzed, with results showing a very large earthquake affected area. The precursory anomalies recorded by instruments were 2900 km away from the epicenter, and according to the study in this paper, reached 2100 km away. The results also show that the anomalies present characteristics of long duration, multi-measurement items and large-amplitude variation. The authors believe that in large earthquake monitoring, attention should be paid to the variation of data over a large area, ranging up to thousands kilometers, with much denser earthquake observation networks.展开更多
