Half-tetrad analysis is a powerful tool for mapping genes and understanding chromosomal behavior during meiosis. The Japanese scallop(Patinopecten yessoensis), a cold-tolerant species inhabiting the northwestern Pacific coast, is a commercially important marine bivalve in Asian countries. In this study, inheritance of 32 informative microsatellite loci was examined in 70-h D-shaped larvae of three induced meiogynogenetic diploid families of P. yessoensis for centromere mapping using half-tetrad analysis. The ratio of gynogenetic diploids was proven to be 100%, 100% and 96% in the three families, respectively. Inheritance analysis in the control crosses showed that 51 of the 53 genotypic ratios observed were in accordance with Mendelian expectations at the 5% level after Bonferroni correction. Seven of the 32 microsatellite loci showed the existence of null alleles in control crosses. The second division segregation frequency(y) of the microsatellite loci ranged from 0.07 to 0.85 with a mean of 0.38, suggesting the existence of positive interference after a single chiasma formation in some chromosomes in the scallop. Microsatellite-centromere distances ranged from 4 c M to 42 c M under the assumption of complete interference. Information on the positions of centromeres in relation to the microsatellite loci will represent a contribution towards the assembly of genetic maps in the commercially important scallop species.展开更多

The study was conducted in the municipality of Paragominas Messoregiao located in the northeast of Para. The basic data used in the economic evaluation of production of planting parica (costs and revenues) were derived from primary source through raising production cost of parica with farmers from the municipality, analyzing the period of production horizon of seven years. The discount rate chosen for economic evaluation was 10% per year. NPV (net present value) calculation IRR (internal rate of return), BCR (benefit-cost ratio) and EP (break-even point). To check the economic feasibility of producing parica the following criteria were used for economic analysis. The results for NPV, IRR and BC ratio were respectively of $495,970, 28.83% and 2.43. For EP (break-even point) the value of 41.08% was found, which demonstrates the minimum amount of production, so that revenue equals costs. Based on the results obtained, it was found that the reforestation model with parica proposed in this paper presents economically viable for deployment.展开更多

All the seven microsatellite loci were compatible with Mendelian inheritance. Neither sex-linked barriers to transmission nor major barriers to fertilization between gametes from the parents were evident. Two of the seven loci showed the presence of null alleles in two families,suggesting the need to conduct comprehensive species-specific inheritance studies for microsatellite loci used in population genetic studies. However,even if the null allele heterozygotes were considered as homozygotes in the calculation of genetic distance,offspring from four families were all unambiguously discriminated in the neighbor-joining dendrogram. This result indicates that the microsatellite markers used may be capable of discriminating between related and unrelated scallop larvae in the absence of pedigree information,and of investigating the effective number of parents contributing to the hatchery population of the Japanese scallop.展开更多

With time goes on in the networks, a DTN connectivity graph is constituted with mobility of nodes and communication, and a corresponding greedy tree is obtained using a greedy algorithm in DTN connectivity graph. While there are some bad nodes such as disabled nodes or selfish nodes in delay tolerant networks, the nodes can choose the next p^oper intermediate node to transmit the mes- sage by comparing the location of neighboring nodes in the greedy tree. The single-copy routing method is very appropriate for energy-constrained, storage-constrained and bandwidth-constrained applications such as mobile wireless DTN networks. We show that delivery ratio is increased significantly by using the graph-based single-copy routing when bad nodes exist.展开更多

First, the spectral domain dyadic Green's function is derived, and the 0-th and the 1-st order Hankel transforms or Sommerfeld-type integrals are used to recover all components of the dyadic Green's function in real space. The Hankel transforms are performed with the adaptive generalized Gaussian quadrature points and window functions to minimize the computational cost. Subsequently, a fast integral equation solver with O(N2zNxNy log(NzNy)) in layered media is developed by rewriting the layered media integral operator in terms of Hankel transforms and using the new fast multipole method for the n-th order Bessel function in 2-D. Computational cost and parallel efficiency of the new algorithm are presented.展开更多

These Majorana bound states are ideal platform for studying non-Abelian statistics. Meanwhile, they are proposed to be useful in quantum computation. In this review, we introduce the basic concepts and models in this area. We begin from the Kitaev model, which is the most concise model for one-dimensional topological superconductivity. Then, we discuss how to realize this model with spin-orbit coupling in realistic materials. Finally, we show some simple methods to detect the Majorana bound states and study their novel properties with the help of adjacent quantum dots.展开更多
