去果(花)对不同成熟期桃叶片可溶性糖积累的影响

为研究自然条件下去果(花)对不同成熟期桃叶片可溶性糖积累的影响,以露地栽培的早熟(锡蜜)、中熟(粤172)和晚熟(冈山11号)3个果实不同成熟期的桃品种为试材,测定果实采摘前后去花和去果处理叶片净光合速率(P n)、光呼吸速率(P r)、夜晚呼吸速率(R n)、可溶性糖积累及相关环境因子指标变化。结果显示:果实库均促进3个不同成熟期桃叶片的P n和P r,同时抑制R n。去果处理可改善叶片中总可溶性糖含量,造成叶片P n和P r下降,且果实熟期越晚,库源强度改变对叶片可溶性糖积累的影响越明显。此外,叶片P n、P r、R n受环境因子综合影响,一定范围内,随着光量子通量密度(PFD)的上升,叶片中可溶性糖含量缓慢增加,同时较高的温度和湿度可能促进蔗糖降解生成己糖(葡萄糖和果糖),高温、低湿可能促进山梨醇的降解。表明去果对不同成熟期桃叶片可溶性糖含量的影响实质上是库源关系和环境因子综合作用的结果。

Control Effect of Different Concentrations of Herbicide Atrazine on Weed in Foxtail Millet Field

The control effect of different concentrations of herbicide atrazine （before seedling after sowing） on weed in foxtail millet field was compared, which provide theoretical basis for screening suitable herbicides concentration for foxtail millet production. As a result, after spraying 25 and 40 d, plant control effect and fresh weight control effect were best by 4 500 ml/hm^2 processing, and fresh weight control effect reached 83.16% and 86.43%. Compared with spraying water （CK）, yieldincreasing effect was the best in the treatment group with atrazine at 2 250 ml/hm^2, where yield growth rate was 54.31%, followed by the treatment group with atrazine at 3 000 ml/hm^2. Therefore, 2 250 ml/hm^2 was the optiaml concentration of herbicide atrazine for millet production.

CO_2 Removal from Biogas by Water Washing System

CO2 removal from biogas by water washing system was investigated with various parameters, including liquid/ gas ratio, pressure, temperature, and CO2 content. The results indicate that CO2 removal ratio could reach 34.6%- 94.2% as liquid/gas ratio increased from 0.14 to 0.50. Increasing pressure （from 0.8 to 1.2 MPa） could improve gas purification with a constant inflow rate of gas. Temperature played a key role in the process and lower temper- ature in absorption tower was beneficial for reducing CO2 content. CO2 removal ratio could reach 24.4%-83.2% when CO2 content in the simulated gas was 25%-45%. The lowest CO2 content after absorption was 2.6% at 1.2 MPa with 400 L·h-1 gas flow and 200 L·h-1 water flow, which meets the requirement of CO2 content in natural Ras for vehicle fuel.

Effect of coal levels during direct reduction roasting of high phosphorus oolitic hematite ore in a tunnel kiln

The effect of coal levels on phosphorus removal from a high phosphorus oolitic hematite ore after direct reduction roasting have been investigated. Raw ore, coal, and a dephosphorizatiou agent were mixed and the mixture was then roasted in a tunnel kiln. The roasted products were treated by two stages of grind- ing followed by magnetic separation. XRD and SEM-EDS examination of the products was used to analyze differences in the roasted products. The results show that coal is one of the most important factors affect- ing the direct reduction roasting process. When the inner coal levels increased from 0% to 15% the iron grade decreased linearly from 94.94%to 88.81% and the iron recovery increased from 55.94% to 92.94%. At the same time the phosphorus content increased from 0.045% to 0.231%. Increasing the inner coal levels also caused more hematite to be reduced to metallic iron but the oolitic structure of the roasted product was preserved in the presence of high coal loading. The phase of the phosphorus in raw ore was not changed after direct reduction roasting. The effect of coal on the phosphorus content in the H-concentrate arises from changes in the difficulty of mechanically liberating the metallic iron from the phosphorus bearing minerals.

Effect of interlayer anions on chromium removal using Mg–Al layered double hydroxides:Kinetic,equilibrium and thermodynamic studies

The influence of interlayer anions such as NO3-, 5042- and Cl- on Mg-AI hydrotalcites for Cr（Vl） removal from aqueous solution was studied. The structure of the prepared LDHs was characterized by XRD, SEM, FTIR, TGA, BET surface area and pHzpc. The sorbent ability and sorption mechanisms were also investigated. The LDHs exhibit high removal for Cr（VI）, and the sorbed amount depends on the nature of interlayer anion, which decreased in the following order： NO3- 〉 Cl 〉 SO42-, Nitrate-containing LDH reached a Cr（VI） sorption equilibrium within only 30 min. The effects of operating conditions, including initial concentration, solution pH, agitation time and sorbent amount have been studied in batch mode. The optimum conditions were observed at an initial concen- tration of 100 mg. L- 1, pH = 6, agitation time of 60 min and a sorbent dose of 2 g.L- 1. The equilibrium data were fitted to the Langmuir, Freundlich and Dubinin-Radushkevich isotherm models. The Langmuir model was found to sufficiently describe the sorption process, offering a maximum sorption capacity of 71.91 mg-g 1. The sorp- tion kinetic follows pseudo-second-order reaction with high accuracy. Thermodynamic parameters suggested that the sorption process is spontaneous and endothermic in nature.

Study on the removal of oil pollution from terrestrial sources in Beitang estuary wetland of Spartina alterniflora

With the rapid development of the petroleum industry and oil spill occurredfrequently in recent years, marine oil pollution is serious. Oil pollution from terrestrialsources is an important source of marine oil pollution. In China, oil pollution fromterrestrial sources accounted for more than 80% of the total marine pollutants. Wetlandhas great ecological and environmental value, and researches found that wetland hasthe function of purifying oil pollutants. Beitang Estuary in Tianjin Binhai New Area is amajor fishery port, and also the main sewage outfall. In recent years, with the increaseof oil pollution from terrestrial sources, water quality in Beitang River is deteriorating.The Beitang Estuary has a large area of natural Spartina alterniflora wetland, whichmay effectively remove oil pollution. Environmental investigation was carried out on thewharf, channel and coastal zone near Beitang Estuary. The results showed that theeutrophication in Beitang Estuary is serious, and the water quality is inferior to theworse than the fourth class of sea water quality. Inorganic nitrogen, active phosphateand petroleum hydrocarbons are the main pollutants. Reed, Spartina alterniflora andSeepweed were the dominant species in the Beitang Estuary, and petroleumhydrocarbons were detected in the three plants. It showed that the Beitang Estuary waspolluted by petroleum hydrocarbons, and the three kinds of plants have the ability toabsorb petroleum hydrocarbons. Survey results showed that, whether in the surfaceseawater or sediment, the oil content near the wharf was higher than the channel; thepetroleum hydrocarbon content in the channel was higher than the coastal zone. Theroots, stems and leaves of Spartina alterniflora can intercept oil pollution from terrestrialsources. In addition to absorbing petroleum hydrocarbons, Spartina alterniflora alsoprovides a good habitat for microorganisms,to accelerate microbial degradation ofpetroleum hydrocarbon. Spartina alterniflora wetland has the obvious effect forreducing terrigenous oil pollutants.

Effects of histone deacetylase inhibitors on transcriptional regulation of the hsp70 gene in Drosophila

Histone acetyltransferases/deacetylases contribute to the activation or inactivation of transcription by modifying the structure of chromatin. Here we examined the effects ofhistone deacetylase inhibitors （HDIs）, trichostatin A, and sodium butyrate on hsp70 gene transcriptional regulation in Drosophila. The chromatin immunoprecipitation assays revealed that HDI treatments induced the hyperacetylation of histone H3 at the promoter and the transcribing regions of hsp 70 gene, increased the accessibility of heat-shock factor to target heat-shock element, and promoted the RNA polymerase Ⅱ-mediated transcription. Moreover, the quantitative real-time PCR confirmed that the HDI-induced hyperacetylation of histone H3 enhanced both the basal and the inducible expression of hsp70 mRNA level. In addition, the acetylation level ofhistone H3 at the promoter exhibited a fluctuated change upon the time of heat shock. These experimental data implicated a causal link between histone acetylation and enhanced transcription initiation of hsp 70 gene in Drosophila.

[Conclusion] In the present study, 375-450 g/hm280% nicosulfuron·atrazine water-dispersible granules exhibited high control effect on weeds in maize field and were safe for the growth of maize seedlings.

Effective Solid Removal Technologies for Wash-Water Treatment to Allow Water Reuse in the Fresh-Cut Fruit and Vegetable Industry

Large quantities of fresh water are used intensively in the washing, cutting, peeling and disinfection of fruits and vegetables, resulting in high solids loading of the wash-water. Review of the literature shows that there is limited information available on how to treat this wash-water on-site. Accordingly, an investigative program was established by sampling wash-water from two industrial partners processing root vegetables to determine the best available approach. Bench scale technologies tested for solids removal were dissolved air flotation （DAF） and centrifuge, followed by ultraviolet （UV） disinfection to evaluate the potential for water reuse. The results showed that DAF and centrifuge were able to remove solids at an efficiency greater than 95%. The DAF process was also able to remove higher levels of dissolved matter and nutrients in comparison to the centrifuge. The DAF process was also able to produce waters with higher transmittance, which leads to improved filtration and UV disinfection for water reuse. Membrane filtration feasibility testing showed that high quality waters can be produced as low as 2 NTU and 4 NTU, following pretreatment with DAF and centrifuge, respectively. However, filtration was unable to remove E. coll. Collimated beam results show that UV disinfection is needed to allow for water reuse.
