Currently ,pyrometallurgy is the main process for laterite smelting, where blast furnaces are employed to make Ni-containing hot metal. With the aim of giving some references for making good use of laterite, technical and economic analysis was conducted in this paper, based on the discussion of the key technologies of Ni-containing hot metal production with laterite （50.4% Fe） in blast furnaces.展开更多

Tobacco rattle virus, TRV1 and TRV2 （pYL156）, were used as vectors for the virus-induced gene silencing （VlGS） assay. Results： The V1 gene was fine-mapped to a 20 kb interval on chromosome 20 of tetraploid cotton. We identified only one candidate gene with four single nucleotide polymorphisms between parents, among which the single nucleotide polymorphism at the position of 1 082 base pair caused the change of amino acid residue from Arg （3-79） to Lys （]-582）. The relative expression of the candidate gene in virescent plants was extensively lower than that in normal plants. Nullification of the gene by VlGS significantly turned the green leaf of normal cotton plants into yellow. We named this candidate gene as GhRVL. Conclusions： This study will facilitate the further research on virescent formation, and will be useful for breeding of hybrid cottons.展开更多
