[Method] Cotton cultivar classification and comprehensive evaluation index were set up based on national cotton registration standard. GGE biplot method was adopted to analyze the correlation of major breeding target characters of 53 national registered cotton varieties in cotton regional trials in YaRV during 1981-2012. According to the shift of check cultivars in cotton regional trials in the past, the cotton regional trial practice since 1981 was divided into five periods. The dynamic of cultivar type's proportion and the evaluation index scores was analyzed across the five periods. [Result] There existed intricate interrelationship among cotton breeding target traits, which constrained it necessary to construct indices for com- prehensive evaluation of cotton varieties. The dynamic of cultivar types in the five periods indicated that type II varieties emerged since Simian 3 period and then its proportion decreased gradually; type Ⅲ varieties maintained a certain proportion in each period and kept on the rise overall; type Ⅳvarieties occupied the majority pro- portion of registered cultivars before 1993, but a minor proportion since Simian 3 period. On the other side, the change trend of the evaluation index demonstrated that the varieties registered before 2003 did not pass the qualified line at present. The peak scores appeared in the varieties registered during 2004-2008. The scores of the varieties registered after 2009 were only slightly over the qualified line. [Conclusion] More attention should be paid to the improvement and evaluation of micronaire, so as to guide the simultaneous development of high yielding and fiber quality in cotton breeding and registration procedure in YaRV.展开更多

Methods: Paraffin-embedded samples collected from 219 cases of lymphoma and 13 cases of lymph node reactive proliferation from affiliated hospitals of Sun Yat-sen University during 2001-2003 were examined for the expression of survivin by using immunohistochemical staining. Reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) was used to detect the mRNA expression of survivin in K562, HL60, Raji, and Jurkat cell lines. Semi-quantitative assay was used to evaluate the quantity of survivin protein and mRNA expression in subtypes of lymphoma. Results: Protein expression of survivin was high and strong in diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (DLBL) (88.6%, 70/79), Burkitt lymphoma (BL) (100%, 2/2), and lymphoblastic lymphoma (LBL) (92.3%, 12/13), while their expression was always lower and weaker in follicular lymphoma (FL) (18.2%), extranodal marginal zone B-cell lymphoma of mucosaassociated lymphoid tissue (MALT lymphoma) (40.9%) and marginal zone lymphoma (MZL) (33.3%). There was a significant difference between the higher expression group (DLBL, BL and LBL) and lower one (FL, MZL, and MALT) in the expression of survivin (Chi-square test, X^2=24.77, P〈0.01). Almost all of Reed-Sternberg cells (R-S cells) in Hodgkin lymphoma (HL) strongly expressed survivin. The protein expression of survivin was positively correlated with mRNA (r=0.6270, P〈0.01). Conclusion: The expression level of survivin mRNA and protein shows significant difference in subtypes of lymphoma. The expression of survivin mRNA might act as a biomarker to classify the subtypes of lymphoma.展开更多

However, the soil property maps produced through conventional direct linking method usually suffer low accuracy as well as the lack of spatial details within a soil type polygon. This paper presents an effective method to produce detailed soil property map based on representative samples which were extracted from each polygon on the 1 : 1 000 000 soil type map. The representative sample of each polygon is defined as the location that can represent the largest area within the polygon. The representativeness of a candidate sample is determined by calculating the soil-forming environment condition similarities between the sample and other locations. Once the representative sample of each polygon has been chosen, the property values of the existing typical samples are assigned to the corresponding representative samples with the same soil type. Finally, based on these representative samples, the detailed soil property map could be produced by using existing digital soil mapping methods. The case study in XuanCheng City, Anhui Province of China, demonstrated the proposed method could produce soil property map at a higher level of spatial details and accuracy: 1) The soil organic matter (SOM) map produced based on the representative samples can not only depict the detailed spatial distribution of SOM within a soil type polygon but also largely reduce the abrupt change of soil property at the boundaries of two adjacent polygons. 2) The Root Mean Squared Error (RMSE) of the SOM map based on the representative samples is 1.61, and it is 1.37 for the SOM map produced by using conventional direct linking method. Therefore, the proposed method is an effective approach to produce spatial detailed soil property map with higher accuracy for environment simulation models.展开更多

Inte- grated the data of coal macrostructure characteristics, coal petrography analysis and coal gas production test, it studies the rela- tionship between coalbody structure and amplitude variation of different well logging data, and the tectonic coal recognition method with well logging data in fresh-water mud invasion. The results show that: the anomalous response of natural gamma ray, neutron, density and apparent resistivity does not reflect the coalbody structure type. In fresh-water drilling mud invasion, using the crossplot technique of dual-lateral, RXO resistivity response and the coalbody structure can classify granulated coal accurately; the proposed method is of good practicability and high reliability.展开更多

Based on features of land cover of the coal mining area,on texture feature extraction and a selection method of a gray-level co-occurrence matrix (GLCM) of the SAR image,we propose in this study that the optimum window size for computing the GLCM is an appropriate sized window that can effectively distinguish different types of land cover. Next,a band combination was carried out over the text feature images and the band-filtered SAR image to secure a new multi-band image. After the transformation of the new image with principal component analysis,a classification is conducted selectively on three principal component bands with the most information. Finally,through training and experimenting with the samples,a better three-layered BP neural network was established to classify the SAR image. The results show that,assisted by texture information,the neural network classification improved the accuracy of SAR image classification by 14.6%,compared with a classification by maximum likelihood estimation without texture information.展开更多

This is inadequate in many situations, especially where timber is not of primary interest. We analyzed the structure of two forest types in the Oban Division of Cross River National Park, Nigeria. Systematic sampling technique was used to establish two transects measuring 2,000 x 2 m, at 600 m interval in the two forest types in four locations. Four 50 m x 50 m plots were located alternately at 500 m intervals along each transect, constituting 32 plots per forest type and 64 plots in all, Diameters at breast height (DBH), base; middle and top; crown diameter; total height and crown length were measured on all trees with DBH 〉_ 10 cm. There were 159 stems/ha in the close-canopy forest and 132 stems/ha in the secondary forest. The mean DBH were 34.5 cm and 33.62 cm respectively. The mean heights were 24.79 m and 23.97 m, respectively. Basal area/ha were 41.59 m2 ha~ and 27.38 m2 hal for the two forest types. Majority of the trees encountered in the two forest types belonged to the middle stratum which has implication for small mammals' populations. Emergent trees which are otherwise scarce in other parts of the country were recorded, which also has implications for density thinning and seed supplies.展开更多

This approach firstly estimates strength of colorfulness of images and their types. With such determined infomation, the algorithm automatical- ly adjusts image colorfulness for a better natural image look. With the help of an additional detection of skin colors and a pixel chroma adaptive local processing, the algodtlan produces more natural image look. The algorithm perfomance had been tested with an image quality judgment experiment of 20 persons. The experimental result indicates a better image preference.展开更多
