After 15 day_UV_B treatment, significant intraspecific differences were observed in plant height, photosynthetic rate and total biomass. Based on the total biomass accumulation, cultivar “Tesanai” was found to be the most sensitive, and cultivar “Luhuangzhan” was the most tolerant species to UV_B radiation. UV_B induced cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) in rice DNA were quantified by ELISA with specific monoclonal antibody. CPD accumulations in DNA extracted from 5 rice cultivars were remarkably increased by UV_B radiation, and it was confirmed that there was a strong positive correlation between CPD accumulation and the inhibition of total biomass. Photorepair was proved to be the predominant mode of CPD repair in UV_B irradiated rice. Light_dependent removal of CPD was very fast as compared with dark repair. Different levels of CPD accumulation among rice cultivars were related with different capacity of CPD photorepair. Capacity of light_dependent CPD removal may play an important role in UV_B resistance of rice.展开更多

These impacts were calculated from a cradle to gate LCA （Life Cycle Assessment）, based on UNEEN ISO 14040：2006 and UNEEN ISO 14044, using as functional unit 1 kg of produced biomaterial. The impact categories analyzed were global wanning, ozone depletion, acidification and eutrophication. The results indicate that the electricity causes the highest impacts in the global warming and ozone depletion categories, but compared to synthetic polymers, the emissions are low. Finally, in the case of eutrophication, the impacts are similar to other biopolymers but higher in comparison with petroleum-based polymers like HDPE （High Density Polyethylene）, LDPE （Low Density Polyethylene）, PP （Polypropylene）, PS （Polystyrene） and PET （Polyethylene Terephthalate）.展开更多
