New technique for identifying varieties resistance to rice blast

After 8 yrs lab experiments and field tests, an advanced technique for identifying varieties resistance to rice blast was developed by a research group in Plant Protection Institute, Zhejiang Academy of Agricultural Sciences. With this technique, the inoculum was prepared on a maize-rice-straw-agar media which was suitable for sporulation of most rice blast pathogen isolates. To avoid possible virulence variation during the vegetative growth, the conidia were harvested and preserved for later different sets of resistance evaluation tests. A simple and precise new method—smear inoculation was used for infection. The experi-

Special issue on new techniques and approaches for neuroscience

In this special issue of Neuroscience Bulletin, the topics range over emerging techniques from the nanoscopic to the macroscopic scales. At the nanoscopic level, new ways to obtain images at the individual protein level in synapses take the re- construction of synaptic architecture to a new level, while using chromophores to disable specific proteins at selected subcellular locations allows the assessment of their functional roles in such dynamic processes as growth-cone extension and cell division. The subtle influences of axonal chan- nels and receptors on neurotransmission are revealed by recording from the blebs induced by axotomy, while methods from cloning to chemical computation are being applied to dissecting the structural-functional rules by which ion channels operatet41.

A new technique of integral representations in C^(n)

A new technique of integral representations in Cn, which is different from the well-known Henkin technique, is given. By means of this new technique, a new integral formula for smooth functions and a new integral representation of solutions of the -equations on strictly pseudoconvex domains in Cn are obtained. These new formulas are simpler than the classical ones, especially the solutions of the -equations admit simple uniform estimates. Moreover, this new technique can be further applied to arbitrary bounded domains in Cn so that all corresponding formulas are simplified.

A NEW TECHNIQUE IN SOLVING UNSTEADY AND STEADY WAVEMAKING PROBLEMS

Under the' assumption of linearization of the free-surface condition, making use of Green's function method and the convolution theorem, analytic solutions of perturbation velocity potentials which correspond to three dimensional unsteady thickness problem and lifting problem caused respectively by arbitrary motions of a body and a hydrofoil beneath the water surface can be achieved in the closed form, In general, the whole perturbation velocity potential consists of three terms, namely φ=φ1+φ2+φ3 , where φ1 denotes the induced velocity potential of the surface singularity distribution in an unbounded fluid, φ2 denotes its mirror image and φ3 denotes that of wave formation which includes the memory effect of the action of the singularity distribution. Utilizing the polynomial expansion of sin[(t-τ)] , the similarity between φ2 and φ3 is discovered and thus a simpler differential relation between them is obtained. Applying this relation, the amount of work in calculation of φ3 which is the most time-consuming one will be reduced significantly. It is favorable not only for dealing with unsteady wave- making problems but also for solving the steady ones in virtue of evading a major difficulty which has to be encountered during the evaluation of an improper inte- gral containing a singularity in the Green's function. The limitation of this new technique turns out to be its slower convergence as the Froude number is lower.

Adjustable muscle plication:a new surgical technique for strabismic patients with high risk for anterior segment ischemia

【正】INTRODUCTION Anterior ciliary arteries provide 70%of the vascular supply of the anterior segment.A significant interruption of the vascular flow of these arteries increases the risk for anterior ischemia.Although the frequency of this special condition is low after strabismus surgery(1:13 000)[1],its effects may involve substantial visual problems[2].We report the successful outcome of a new surgical approach for strabismus management in a case of high risk for anterior ischemia.Specifically,we show the correction of the horizontal ocular deviation by means of an adjustable muscle

A NEW COPY TECHNIQUE·FOR SPECIMEN GRATING IN MOIRE METHOD

A special X-radiography,used in obtaining the deformed specimen grating in in-plane moire method is introduced.The density of gridline is up to 50 lines / mm.This method is suitable not only for the copy of grating in fiat surface but also for that in curved surface.From unfolding the copy and superposing it with a reference grating,the moire effect arises.By processing this moire fringes with the digital image processing unit, the strain distribution would be obtained.Furthermore,the u-and v-displacement fields could be separated by the optical processing of this copy.The measurment sensitivity and accuracy become better simultaneously because of the fringe multiplication.Thus,this method makes it possible to measure the elastic-plastic strain precisely in any developable curved surfaces,for example, the surface of shaft,rotary-wing,cylindrical shell and cone shell etc.

Consumer transparency in the production chain for plant varieties produced using new genomic techniques

Plants edited with new genomic techniques(NGTs)currently fall under the Genetically Modified Organisms Directive(2001/18/EC)in the European Union.In the proposal of the European Commission,NGT plants are partially exempted from the regulations of this directive.The proposal makes a distinction between two categories of NGT plants:NGT-1 and NGT-2.NGT-1 category plants are considered equal to plants obtained through conventional breeding methods.These plants will not be labelled for the consumer,although they will be labelled as seeds.NGT-2 category plants may be labelled with additional information as a positive incentive.Labelling of seeds of varieties made with gene editing,but not the products,would mean that most steps in the production chain are transparent,but not the last step towards consumers.The“right to know”and increasing knowledge of gene-edited food is a common theme in food labelling towards consumers.Here,we describe current labelling regimes and registers and how these may be applied to provide transparency on gene-edited products to consumers.Furthermore,we also look into consumer studies,which indicate a greater acceptance of gene-edited food among consumers,especially when additional benefits such as sustainability are mentioned.

One-half layer pancreaticojejunostomy with the rear wall of the pancreas reinforced:A valuable anastomosis technique

BACKGROUND Postoperative pancreatic fistula(POPF)is one of the most common and serious complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy(PD).To effectively reduce the incidence of POPF,we designed a new type of pancreaticojejunostomy(PJ),which was termed one-half layer PJ with the rear wall of the pancreas reinforced.AIM To explore the clinical application value of this new technique.METHODS We compared 62 patients who had undergone PD by either the traditional ductto-mucosa anastomoses or the new one-half layer PJ with the rear wall of the pancreas reinforced method at our hospital from May 2015 to September 2019.All 62 patients were operated by the same surgeon experienced in both procedures.We retrospectively analyzed patient characteristics,perioperative outcomes,and surgical results.RESULTS There was no significant difference between the two groups in basic information except the postoperative hospital stays,14.7±5.4 d in the traditional duct-tomucosa anastomoses group and 12.0±4.2 d in the one-half layer PJ group(P=0.042).In terms of postoperative complications,the one-half layer PJ group had a lower rate of POPF than the traditional group.The overall number of cases with POPF was 8(24.2%)in the traditional group and 2(6.9%)in the one-half layer group(P=0.017).Additionally,the rate of grades B and C POPF was lower in the one-half layer group(3.4%)compared with that(12.1%)in the traditional group(P=0.010).One patient died due to hemorrhage caused by severe pancreatic fistula in the traditional group.CONCLUSION One-half layer PJ with the rear wall of the pancreas reinforced is a safe and feasible procedure that can successfully reduce the rate of POPF.It may be a promising technique for PJ after PD.
