Genetic improvement for salt tolerance is an effective way to protect soybean yield under salt stress conditions. Successful improvement of salt tolerance in soybean relies on identifying genetic variation that confers tolerance in soybean germplasm and subsequently incorporating these genetic resources into cultivars. In this review, we summarize the progress in genetic diversity and genetics of salt tolerance in soybean, which includes identifying genetic diversity for salt tolerant germplasm; mapping QTLs conferring salt tolerance; map-based cloning; and conducting genome-wide association study(GWAS) analysis in soybean. Future research avenues are also discussed, including high throughput phenotyping technology, the CRISPR/Cas9 Genome-Editing System, and genomic selection technology for molecular breeding of salt tolerance.展开更多

For better understanding from all aspects on the hereditary properties, the present research deals with the heredity destruction and the secondary EPM procedure. It is shown that the secondary EPM is capable of preventing the heredity reduction of EP-modified liquid aluminum, and that the final refining effect has a close relationship with technique parameters of the secondary EPM. Furthermore, at a certain superheated temperature depending on the initial EPM technique parameters, the heredity relationship of EP-modified liquid aluminum can be cut off during remelting. High temperature X-ray diffraction combining with the DSC tests also indicates that the EP-induced structure changes have almost disappeared at an elevated remelting temperature.展开更多

It is found that, for morphologies and distributions of TiC particles, there are visible heredity which originates from raw materials or processing methods of Al melt, and will ultimately be transferred to the solid state structure through the melt stage, and this phenomenon can cause hereditary influences on refinement: formation of chain like TiC morphology results in rapid refinement fading behavior; distribution of TiC along grain boundaries greatly reduces refinement efficiency. Controlling of structural heredity through proper selections of raw materials and processing parameters is of great importance in obtaining ideal microstructures and improving refinement behaviors of AlTiC master alloys.展开更多

The microstructure of hot-rolled and annealed samples was studied by OM. Experimental results indicate that a strong heredity is observed in texture evolution between hot-rolled texture and annealed texture. Typical elements have a large effect on the recrystallization microstructure and texture distribution. The texture distribution through thickness is highly affected by recrystallization in hot rolled sheets. The recrystallization is boosted by Si and Al. Goss grains originate from cracked initial 〈100〉 columnar grains. {110}〈112〉, {112}〈111〉 and {111}〈112〉 grains are related to Goss grains. In subsurface lay of hot rolled sheets, Al can strengthen Goss texture and weaken copper-type texture. {112}〈111〉 texture and {110}〈112〉 texture are strengthened by Si. In the central layers, {100}〈001〉 texture and {111}〈121〉 texture are weakened by Al. {100}〈011〉 texture is increased by Al. Si can increase the proportion of γ-fiber texture and decrease that of {100}〈011〉 texture. In annealed texture, {100}〈001〉 texture and Goss texture are decreased by Al and Si. γ-fiber texture is increased by Si and {111}〈121〉 texture is preferentially increased by Al. The recrystallized grain size is increased and iron loss of annealed sheets is reduced by Al and Si, which means that the magnetic properties are optimized by the Al and Si content.展开更多

Before the heredity experiment a non catalytic nucleation composite glass lined coating (B F) was prepared on the inner surface of mould and the Cu 70 Ni 30 alloy was selected to perform undercooling experiment in the B F non catalytic coating mould. Its ratio of undercooling heredity was 0.76. The results prove that the B F coating is an ideal non catalytic media for purified Cu 70 Ni 30 alloy melts due to its small contact angle between the melt and coating layer. Considering that various microstructures form under different undercoolings, two critical undercoolings, Δ T 1 and Δ T 2, and their corresponding microstructures of Cu 70 Ni 30 alloy are well defined. Moreover, it is found that the manned trigging solidification in the non catalytic coating mould could be used to get directional undercooling dendrite structure while the melt undercooling is larger than the critical undercooling Δ T 2.展开更多

Wilczek] and can inflict serious loss. A resistant variety from India, V2709, was crossed with a susceptible variety, Zhonglti 1, from the World Vegetable Center, Asian Vegetable Research and Development Center (AVRDC). Segregation of the F2, BC1F1, and F3 populations showed that bruchid resistance of V2709 is controlled by a single dominant locus. To find molecular marker linked with the resistant locus, 63 randomly amplified polymorphic DNA markers and 113 sets of SSR/STS primers were used in a bulked segregant analysis. Two of the markers, OPC-06 and STSbr2, were found to be linked with the locus (named as Br2). Further analysis suggested that the genetic distances between these two markers and Br2 were 11.0 and 5.8 cM, respectively.展开更多

The results show that cpDNA in the F1 generation of 22 hybrid combinations was inherited maternally, which supported the conclusions of the study of plasmid cytology. The mtDNA fragments amplified by PCR were consistent with the restriction maps in all hybrid combinations and no polymorphism was detected, indicating that the Section Leuce is highly conserved in mitochondrial gene sequences. These results provided direct evidence of maternal chloroplast inheritance in Populus tomentosa, P. bolleana, P. davidiana, P. adenopoda, P. tomentosa × P. bolleana, P. alba × P. glandulosa and P. alba × P. tomentosa.展开更多

In this article, chance of developing the Parkinson’s disease is estimated for an individual in five types of families. That is, families with negative history of the PD (I), families with positive history where neither one of the parents (II), one of the parents (III-IV), or both parents (V) are diagnosed with the disease. After a sophisticated modeling, Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian Approach are used to estimate the chance of developing the Parkinson’s in the five mentioned family types. It is extremely important knowing such probabilities as the individual can take precautionary measures to defy the odds. While many physicians have provided medical opinions on chance of developing the PD, our study is one of the first to provide statistical modeling and analysis with real data to support the conclusions.展开更多

The results show that within a certain temperature range, the electrical resistivity of Al 16%Si alloy melt changes abruptly in the forms of inflection points or platforms, which is ascribed to the changes in the internal microstructure of the melt. Based on this rule, the variation characteristics of microstructure can be revealed. When remelting and overheating Al 16%Si alloy to 1 050 ℃, the hereditary effects of different original structure on solidification structure after remelting can be eliminated, which can provide scientific foundation for properly controlling the hereditary factors transmitting the structural information of melt.展开更多

Genomic DNA samples were extracted from the peripheral blood cells of the participants in this pedigree. Exon sequence was used for genetic mutation screening. In silico analysis was used to study the structure characteristics of connexin 46(CX46) mutant. Immunoblotting was conduceted for testing the expression of CX46.RESULTS:To determine the involved genetic mutations, 11 well-known cataract-associated genes(cryaa, cryab, crybb1, crybb2, crygc, crygd, Gja3, Gja8, Hsf4, Mip and Pitx3) were chosen for genetic mutation test by using exon sequencing. A novel cytosine insertion at position 1195 of CX46 c DNA(c.1194_1195ins C) was found in the samples of 5 tested cataract patients but not in the unaffected 2 individuals nor in normal controls, which resulted in 30 amino acids more extension in CX46Cterminus(cx46fs400) compared with the wild-type CX46. In silico protein structure analysis indicated that the mutant showed distinctive hydrophobicity and protein secondary structure compared with the wild-type CX46. The immunoblot results revealed that CX46 protein, which expressed in the aging cataract lens tissues, was absence in the proband lens. In contrast, CX50, alpha A-crystallin and alphaB-crystallin expressed equally in both proband and aging cataract tissues. Those results revealed that the cx46fs400 mutation could impair CX46 protein expression. CONCLUSION:The insertion of cytosine at position 1195 of CX46 cD NA is a novel mutation site that is associated with the autosomal dominant cataracts in this Chinese family. The C-terminal frameshift mutation is involved in regulating CX46 protein expression.展开更多

文摘A new concept of undercooling heredity is developed to evaluate the undercooling ability in a non catalytic nucleation coated mould, where alloy melts were highly undercooled previously. Before the heredity experiment a non catalytic nucleation composite glass lined coating (B F) was prepared on the inner surface of mould and the Cu 70 Ni 30 alloy was selected to perform undercooling experiment in the B F non catalytic coating mould. Its ratio of undercooling heredity was 0.76. The results prove that the B F coating is an ideal non catalytic media for purified Cu 70 Ni 30 alloy melts due to its small contact angle between the melt and coating layer. Considering that various microstructures form under different undercoolings, two critical undercoolings, Δ T 1 and Δ T 2, and their corresponding microstructures of Cu 70 Ni 30 alloy are well defined. Moreover, it is found that the manned trigging solidification in the non catalytic coating mould could be used to get directional undercooling dendrite structure while the melt undercooling is larger than the critical undercooling Δ T 2.

文摘Bruchid is a serious insect pest of mungbean [Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek] and can inflict serious loss. A resistant variety from India, V2709, was crossed with a susceptible variety, Zhonglti 1, from the World Vegetable Center, Asian Vegetable Research and Development Center (AVRDC). Segregation of the F2, BC1F1, and F3 populations showed that bruchid resistance of V2709 is controlled by a single dominant locus. To find molecular marker linked with the resistant locus, 63 randomly amplified polymorphic DNA markers and 113 sets of SSR/STS primers were used in a bulked segregant analysis. Two of the markers, OPC-06 and STSbr2, were found to be linked with the locus (named as Br2). Further analysis suggested that the genetic distances between these two markers and Br2 were 11.0 and 5.8 cM, respectively.

文摘The chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) and mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) of 16 Populus species (Section Leuce) and their F1 generation were detected using PCR-RFLP technique. The results show that cpDNA in the F1 generation of 22 hybrid combinations was inherited maternally, which supported the conclusions of the study of plasmid cytology. The mtDNA fragments amplified by PCR were consistent with the restriction maps in all hybrid combinations and no polymorphism was detected, indicating that the Section Leuce is highly conserved in mitochondrial gene sequences. These results provided direct evidence of maternal chloroplast inheritance in Populus tomentosa, P. bolleana, P. davidiana, P. adenopoda, P. tomentosa × P. bolleana, P. alba × P. glandulosa and P. alba × P. tomentosa.
文摘Hereditary is one of the key risk factors of the Parkinson’s disease (PD) and children of individuals with the Parkinson’s carry a two-fold risk for the disease. In this article, chance of developing the Parkinson’s disease is estimated for an individual in five types of families. That is, families with negative history of the PD (I), families with positive history where neither one of the parents (II), one of the parents (III-IV), or both parents (V) are diagnosed with the disease. After a sophisticated modeling, Maximum Likelihood and Bayesian Approach are used to estimate the chance of developing the Parkinson’s in the five mentioned family types. It is extremely important knowing such probabilities as the individual can take precautionary measures to defy the odds. While many physicians have provided medical opinions on chance of developing the PD, our study is one of the first to provide statistical modeling and analysis with real data to support the conclusions.
文摘19th-century scientific breakthroughs and developments exerted huge influence upon Thomas Hardy’s literary work,among which Darwinian discourses as well as issues of heredity and degeneration have attracted considerable critical attention.These scientific discourses can find their literary echoes in Hardy’s novels.Hardy’s characters are trapped by biological determinism and are therefore deprived of freewill,a devastating element which contributes to Hardy’s tragic vision.In Hardy’s early novels,Darwinism and other scientific issues are dealt with in a discursive manner,as is the case in A Pair of Blue Eyes;it is only in his late novels,especially in Tess of the d’Urbervilles and Jude the Obscure,that Hardy finally succeeds in incorporating Darwinian and hereditary discourses into his literary and philosophical conception and design.Thus to use a Darwinian term,this paper investigates the evolutionary process in which Hardy grows gradually adept in his artistic attempt to fuse the contemporary scientific discourses with his literary imagination,as well as in using scientific issues to mediate between authorial intention and critical expectation.
文摘The variation rule of the sensitive physical properties of Al 16%Si alloy melt was studied. The results show that within a certain temperature range, the electrical resistivity of Al 16%Si alloy melt changes abruptly in the forms of inflection points or platforms, which is ascribed to the changes in the internal microstructure of the melt. Based on this rule, the variation characteristics of microstructure can be revealed. When remelting and overheating Al 16%Si alloy to 1 050 ℃, the hereditary effects of different original structure on solidification structure after remelting can be eliminated, which can provide scientific foundation for properly controlling the hereditary factors transmitting the structural information of melt.

文摘AIM:To investigate the genetic mutations that are associated the hereditary autosomal dominant cataract in a Chinese family.METHODS:A Chinese family consisting of 20 cataract patients(including 9 male and 11 female) and 2 unaffected individuals from 5 generations were diagnosed to be a typical autosomal dominant cataract pedigree. Genomic DNA samples were extracted from the peripheral blood cells of the participants in this pedigree. Exon sequence was used for genetic mutation screening. In silico analysis was used to study the structure characteristics of connexin 46(CX46) mutant. Immunoblotting was conduceted for testing the expression of CX46.RESULTS:To determine the involved genetic mutations, 11 well-known cataract-associated genes(cryaa, cryab, crybb1, crybb2, crygc, crygd, Gja3, Gja8, Hsf4, Mip and Pitx3) were chosen for genetic mutation test by using exon sequencing. A novel cytosine insertion at position 1195 of CX46 c DNA(c.1194_1195ins C) was found in the samples of 5 tested cataract patients but not in the unaffected 2 individuals nor in normal controls, which resulted in 30 amino acids more extension in CX46Cterminus(cx46fs400) compared with the wild-type CX46. In silico protein structure analysis indicated that the mutant showed distinctive hydrophobicity and protein secondary structure compared with the wild-type CX46. The immunoblot results revealed that CX46 protein, which expressed in the aging cataract lens tissues, was absence in the proband lens. In contrast, CX50, alpha A-crystallin and alphaB-crystallin expressed equally in both proband and aging cataract tissues. Those results revealed that the cx46fs400 mutation could impair CX46 protein expression. CONCLUSION:The insertion of cytosine at position 1195 of CX46 cD NA is a novel mutation site that is associated with the autosomal dominant cataracts in this Chinese family. The C-terminal frameshift mutation is involved in regulating CX46 protein expression.
