Effects of Meteorological Factors on Overwintering Ability,Yield and Quality of Forage Rape

In order to investigate the effects of meteorological factors on rape overwintering ability,forage yield and quality of rape in the North China plain,Brassia campestris L.and Brassica napus L.were used in this study.The results showed that compared with the B.napus L.varieties,the growth period of B.campestris L.was shortened by 10-15 d,the overwintering rate(WR)increased by 50.6%,and the density after winter(PD)increased by 41.5%.The fresh forage yield(FFY)and dry forage yield(DFY)of the B.campestris L.type significantly increased by 40.9%and 38.1%compared with the B.napus L.type.,respectively,while the forage quality of the B.napus L.type rape was significantly better than that of the B.campestris L.type.Compared with the B.campestris L.type,the crude protein(CP),fat,ash and total fatty acid(TFA)contents of the B.napus L.type of rape increased by 27.6%,42.9%,23.9%and 52.3%,respectively,and the milk productivity(HM),relative forage value(RFV)and relative forage quality(RFQ)increased by 14.0%,16.2%and 42.1%,respectively.The light and heat resources before wintering increased the WR and PD(P<0.05),and were positively correlated with FFY and DFY(P>0.05),and lower temperature during the wintering period led to lower WR(P<0.01).The light and heat resources during the overwintering period and after regreening were negatively correlated with FFY and DFY(P>0.05).The contents of CP,fat and TFA of rape had an extremely significant negative correlation with the temperature and sunshine hours before wintering,but an extremely significant positive correlation with the temperature during the wintering period and after regreening,as well as the sunshine hours and rainfall during the wintering period;and HM had an extremely significant positive correlation with the temperature,sunshine hours and rainfall during the wintering period,while RFV and RFQ were only extremely significantly positively correlated with the maximum temperature and rainfall.In summary,in the North China Plain,for autumn sowing rape,the B.campestris L.type can be selected to improve the wintering rate,and the B.napus L.type should be the main choice to improve the forage quality of rape.Therefore,the B.napus L.variety HYZ62 can be selected for autumn sowing in the North China Plain.

De novo strategy with engineering a multifunctional bacterial cellulose-based dressing for rapid healing of infected wounds

The treatment and healing of infected skin lesions is one of the major challenges in surgery.To solve this problem,collagen I(Col-I)and the antibacterial agent hydroxypropyltrimethyl ammonium chloride chitosan(HACC)were composited into the bacterial cellulose(BC)three-dimensional network structure by a novel membrane-liquid interface(MLI)culture,and a Col-I/HACC/BC(CHBC)multifunctional dressing was designed.The water absorption rate and water vapor transmission rate of the obtained CHBC dressing were 35.78±2.45 g/g and 3084±56 g m^(-2)⋅day^(-1),respectively.The water retention of the CHBC dressing was significantly improved compared with the BC caused by the introduced Col-I and HACC.In vitro results indicated that the combined advantages of HACC and Col-I confer on CHBC dressings not only have outstanding antibacterial properties against Staphylococcus aureus(S.aureus)compared with BC and CBC,but also exhibit better cytocompatibility than BC and HBC to promote the proliferation and spread of NIH3T3 cells and HUVECs.Most importantly,the results of in vivo animal tests demonstrated that the CHBC dressings fully promoted wound healing for 8 days and exhibited shorter healing times,especially in the case of wound infection.Excellent skin regeneration effects and higher expression levels of collagen during infection were also shown in the CHBC group.We believe that CHBC composites with favorable multifunctionality have potential applications as wound dressings to treat infected wounds.
