The first is characterized by a high yield and wide adaptation, and the second by its super fiber property. Substitution line in which a pair of intact chromosomes of TM_1 ( G. hirsutum ) were replaced by a pair of homozygous chromosomes of 3_79 ( G. barbadense ) is an excellent material for genetic research and molecular tagging. In this study, substitution line 16 (Sub 16) was used to evaluate the performance of the 16th chromosome in G. barbadense in TM_1 background. The genetic analysis using the major gene plus polygene mixed inheritance model in F 2∶3 family revealed that there might exist 2 QTLs respectively for boll size, lint percentage, lint index, fiber length and the first fruit branch node, 1 QTL for fiber elongation and flowering date, and no QTL for seed index, fiber strength and Micronaire in chromosome 16. However, 9 QTLs (LOD (logarithm of odds)≥3.0) controlling 6 quantitative traits were significantly identified in linkage group of chromosome 16 constructed in (TM_1×3_79) F 2by interval mapping. Among them, 1 QTL for boll size, fiber length, flowering date and fiber elongation could explain 15.2%, 19.7%, 12.1%, and 11.7% phenotypic variance respectively, 2 QTLs for lint index could explain 11.6% and 41.9%, and 3 QTLs for lint percentage could explain 8.7%, 9.6% and 29.2% phenotypic variance respectively. One unlinked SSR marker was associated with one QTL respectively for boll size and flowering date and they could explain 1.60% and 4.63% phenotypic variance. The traits associated significantly with chromosome 16 from Sub 16 were boll weight, lint percentage, lint index, fiber length, fiber elongation and flowering days.展开更多

In terms of the structure of varieties, there was a decreasing trend for the proportion of three-line hybrid rice varieties but a rapid increase for that of two-line hybrid rice varieties. The percentage of rice varieties developed by scientific research institu- tions was decreasing but that developed by seed companies kept a rapid increase, indicating the commercial breeding conducted by seed companies has become a principal model in rice breeding. With regard to grain quality of varieties, the con- ventional rice varieties showed an increasing trend while the hybrid rice varieties had a decreasing trend in the proportion of high quality varieties, indicating hybrid rice needs improving more in grain quality in breeding programs.展开更多

A total of 24 crossbred (PIC variety) finishing pigs (60.05±1.24 kg, 12 gilts and 12 barrows) were assigned randomly to one of the three dietary groups, with four pens/group (one gilt and one barrow per pen). Pigs were fed with a basal diet containing 0 (control), 70, or 140 mg/kg CS for 47 days. The results indicated that dietary CS supplementation increased (P〈0.05) the average daily gain and feed intake with optimal responses occurring at 70 mg/kg. Dietary supplementation of CS increased (P〈0.05) the dressing percentage and lean percentage of finishing pigs with optimal responses occurring at 140 mg/kg. The CS supplementation, however, had no effect (P〉0.05) on meat quality. Dietary CS supplementation increased (P〈0.05) total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) with optimal responses occurring at 70 mg/kg. CS supplementation at both 70 mg/kg and 140 mg/kg doses improved (P〈0.05) the muscle RNA/DNA ratio. Collectively, the results suggest dietary supplementation of 70 mg/kg CS could significantly improve growth performance and antioxidant status without adverse effects on the gastrointestinal tracts in finishing pigs while the 140 mg/kg CS supplementation improved the carcass quality. However, meat quality was not affected by CS supplementation.展开更多

Thermogravimetric analysis was conducted to study the thermal decomposition behaviors of lOS, showing that 550 ℃ might be the pyrolysis final temperature. A explanation of the heat-mass transfer process was presented to demonstrate the influence of mi- crowave-assisted pyrolysis on the liquid product distribution. The heat-mass transfer model was also useful to explain the increase of liquid product yield and heavy component content at the same heating rate by two differ- ent heating methods. Experiments were carried out using a fixed bed reactor with and without the microwave irradiation. The results showed that liquid product yield was increased during microwave induced pyrolysis, while the formation of gas and solid residue was reduced in comparison with the conventional pyrolysis. Moreover, the liquid product characterization by elemental analysis and GC-MS indicated the significant effect on the liquid chemical composition by microwave irradiation. High polarity substances (ε 〉 10 at 25 ℃), such as oxy- organics were increased, while relatively low polarity substances (ε 〈 2 at 25℃), such as aliphatic hydrocarbons were decreased, suggesting that microwave enhanced the relative volatility of high polarity substances. The yield improvement and compositional variations in the liquid product promoted by the microwave-assisted pyrolysis deserve the further exploitation in the future,展开更多

Several methods, such as standard addition, isotopically labeled internal standards, clean-up of SPE (solid phase extraction) eluents by dispersive graphitized carbon sorbent and substitution of eletrospray ionization (ESI) source by atmosphere pressure photoionization (APPI) source, were demonstrated for elimination of matrix effects in quantitative analysis of PFAs in solid samples. The resuRs indicate that matrix effects can be effectively eliminated by standard addition, but instrumental analysis time will be multiplied. Isotopically labeled internal standards can effectively negate matrix effects of PFAs with the same perfluorocarbon chain length, but is not valid for the other analytes. Although APPI can eliminate matrix effects for all analytes, it is only suitable for analysis of high pollution levels samples. Clean-up of SPE eluents by dispersive graphitized carbon sorbent not only effectively negate the impact of matrix effect, but also avoid frequent clean of the ESI in order to maintain instrumental sensitivity. Therefore, the best method for elimination of matrix effects is the usage of dispersive graphitized carbon sorbent for clean-up of SPE elution.展开更多

It used 20 male Karadi lambs, with an average live-weight of 28 ± 0.398 kg and 4-5 months. They were randomly distributed to 4 treatments. FP was supplemented at the levels of 3%, 6% and 9% compared with the control group for 88 days. At the end of the experiment 12 lambs were slaughtered after overnight fasting of feed. Carcasses were chilled for 24 h at 4 ℃. Then, several measurements of carcass characteristics were taken. The results showed: no significant differences have been shown in relation to daily feed intake, live weight gain and feed conversion ratio. The treatment 9% recorded the highest in hot carcass weight (HCW) and cold carcass weight (CCW), rib eye area (REA) and the lowest fat thickness of subcutaneous fat as compared to other treatments. While, no significant differences in dressing percentage (DP) were seen between treatments. Generally percentage of tail fat related to carcass weight and subcutaneous fat to intermuscular fat ratio decreased with FP supplementation. About carcass cuts, significant (P 〈 0.05) differences were seen in percentage of major carcass cuts (leg, rack, loin and shoulder) and secondary cuts (neck, foreshank, flank and breast cuts) relative to cold carcass weight. It can be concluded that using Flax seed powder (FP) as a source of omega-3 supplementation improved carcass characteristics and efficiency of meat production.展开更多

In the present study, fourteen species of imidazolium-based ionic liquids were added into the NaOH (aq) to remove the mercaptans. The influences of anion species and cation alkyl chain length of the imidazolium-based ionic liquids on the performance of mercaptan removal from light oils have been discussed. The efficiency of extraction for mercaptans exhibited the order of [Ac]- 〉 [OH]- [Br]- 〉 [BF4]-. The longer alkyl chain imidazolium-based ionic liquids contributed to enhance desulfurization rate of l-butyl mercaptan. 100% desulfurization rate of l-butyl mercaptan was achieved by the anion of Ac- ionic liquids and NaOH (aq) at a volume ratio of 40:1 (V(oil]:Vfionic liouid)) and a short eouilibrium time within 10 min.展开更多

METHODS: Eighty children with inguinoscrotal disorders (aged 1-10 years) were studied prospectively. They were divided into eight groups that each contained 10 children who were fed normal liquid food (NLF) and a high-calorie diet (HCD) 2, 3, 4 and 5 h before surgery, in two doses at 6-h intervals. NLF was given to four groups and HCD to the other four. In all groups, glucose, prealbumin and cortisol levels in the blood were measured twice: just after oral feeding and just before the operation. After the establishment of adequate anesthesia, gastric residue liquid was measured with a syringe. RESULTS: Blood glucose levels in all patients fed NLF and HCD were high, except in patients inthe HCD-4 group. There was no significant difference in the blood prealbumin levels. There was a significant increase in the blood cortisol levels in the NLF-2 (14.4± 5.7), HCD-2 (13.2 ± 6.0), NLF-3 (10.9± 6.4), and HCD-5 (6.8 ± 5.7) groups (P 〈 0.05). CONCLUSION: The stress of surgery may be tolerated by children when they are fed up to 2 h before elective surgery.Key words: Cortisol; Diet; Fasting; Food; Glucose; Liquids; Prealbumin展开更多

Some notes on fluid mechanics, including the two approaches of fluid flow description, were given. The concepts of the chain and the chain group of product life cycles, which are essential for understanding the specific features of substance flow, were advanced. Taking the specific feature of substance flow into consideration, on the analogy of the two approaches in fluid mechanics, two approaches of substance flow analysis, i.e. L method and E model, were formulated. Illustrative models of steady and unsteady substance flow were sketched by both methods, and comparison between them was made in general.展开更多

Only 2 of these were detected at the same locus at four environments, 1 was significant at three environments, 6 were significant at two environments and 1 was significant at one environment. Seven QTLs located on chromosome 1(two), 2(two),5,6,8 were found for low temperature chlorosis resistance and five QTLs located on chromosome 3, 4, 7, 8, 11 resistant to chilling injury. The amount of variation explained by individual QTL ranged from 4.85%to 49.34%. There was no linkage relationship among the three characters, which indicates seedling cold tolerance is a complex character and is controlled by different QTLs.展开更多

Since 1994, the vertical directional solidification (VDS) technique has been employed for the growth of bulk crystals, without the seed, without contact to the ampoule wall, without coating and without external pressure. An automated furnace was designed and fabricated for the controlled temperature gradients, growth conditions and parameters. The typical ingots growths of GaSb have shown the gap of 20 μm-145 μm and mobility μn = 1125 cm^2/V.sec at 300 K. Mobility is highest and five times larger than the attached growths. Dislocation density is the order of 104/cm2 in the conical region, decreases in the direction of growth, and in many crystals reached less than 103/cm2. The spontaneous gap formation due to the meniscus depends on the pressure differences and thermal state. GaSb grown ingots have shown progress in the properties of crystal grown ever, and attributed to reduce thermal stress without contact to the ampoule wall.展开更多

The results indicated that dietary CS supplementation increased (P〈0.05) the average daily gain and feed intake with optimal responses occurring at 70 mg/kg. Dietary supplementation of CS increased (P〈0.05) the dressing percentage and lean percentage of finishing pigs with optimal responses occurring at 140 mg/kg. The CS supplementation, however, had no effect (P〉0.05) on meat quality. Dietary CS supplementation increased (P〈0.05) total antioxidant capacity (T-AOC) and decreased malondialdehyde (MDA) with optimal responses occurring at 70 mg/kg.

It used 20 male Karadi lambs, with an average live-weight of 28 ± 0.398 kg and 4-5 months. They were randomly distributed to 4 treatments. FP was supplemented at the levels of 3%, 6% and 9% compared with the control group for 88 days. At the end of the experiment 12 lambs were slaughtered after overnight fasting of feed. Carcasses were chilled for 24 h at 4 ℃. Then, several measurements of carcass characteristics were taken. The results showed: no significant differences have been shown in relation to daily feed intake, live weight gain and feed conversion ratio. The treatment 9% recorded the highest in hot carcass weight (HCW) and cold carcass weight (CCW), rib eye area (REA) and the lowest fat thickness of subcutaneous fat as compared to other treatments. While, no significant differences in dressing percentage (DP) were seen between treatments. Generally percentage of tail fat related to carcass weight and subcutaneous fat to intermuscular fat ratio decreased with FP supplementation. About carcass cuts, significant (P 〈 0.05) differences were seen in percentage of major carcass cuts (leg, rack, loin and shoulder) and secondary cuts (neck, foreshank, flank and breast cuts) relative to cold carcass weight. It can be concluded that using Flax seed powder (FP) as a source of omega-3 supplementation improved carcass characteristics and efficiency of meat production.

Here, the framework of the standards system and evaluation indicators system for environmental protection products are described based on the present deficiencies in independent innovation, lower levels of standardization, and poor operating effectiveness of such equipment in China with a goal of forcing the development of standardization, seriation and currency used in the environmental protection industry. The results presented here should serve as a reference for the promotion of quality and effectiveness in environmental protection products and equipments.
文摘That flow is the common feature of substance flow and fluid flow is the viewpoint emphasized in the paper. Some notes on fluid mechanics, including the two approaches of fluid flow description, were given. The concepts of the chain and the chain group of product life cycles, which are essential for understanding the specific features of substance flow, were advanced. Taking the specific feature of substance flow into consideration, on the analogy of the two approaches in fluid mechanics, two approaches of substance flow analysis, i.e. L method and E model, were formulated. Illustrative models of steady and unsteady substance flow were sketched by both methods, and comparison between them was made in general.
文摘The quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for cold tolerance relative characters were identified with microsatellite markers.Ten QTLs located on chromosome 1, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 11(two)and 12 were detected for seedling height at different low temperature. Only 2 of these were detected at the same locus at four environments, 1 was significant at three environments, 6 were significant at two environments and 1 was significant at one environment. Seven QTLs located on chromosome 1(two), 2(two),5,6,8 were found for low temperature chlorosis resistance and five QTLs located on chromosome 3, 4, 7, 8, 11 resistant to chilling injury. The amount of variation explained by individual QTL ranged from 4.85%to 49.34%. There was no linkage relationship among the three characters, which indicates seedling cold tolerance is a complex character and is controlled by different QTLs.
文摘Advantages of the detached phenomena have influenced researchers to modify the conventional methods to promote it on the earth. Since 1994, the vertical directional solidification (VDS) technique has been employed for the growth of bulk crystals, without the seed, without contact to the ampoule wall, without coating and without external pressure. An automated furnace was designed and fabricated for the controlled temperature gradients, growth conditions and parameters. The typical ingots growths of GaSb have shown the gap of 20 μm-145 μm and mobility μn = 1125 cm^2/V.sec at 300 K. Mobility is highest and five times larger than the attached growths. Dislocation density is the order of 104/cm2 in the conical region, decreases in the direction of growth, and in many crystals reached less than 103/cm2. The spontaneous gap formation due to the meniscus depends on the pressure differences and thermal state. GaSb grown ingots have shown progress in the properties of crystal grown ever, and attributed to reduce thermal stress without contact to the ampoule wall.
