The study demonstrated that CGA content in peel and flesh of Xuehua pear decreased as fruit development progressed, with a higher level in peel. The expression levels of PbPAL 1, PbPAL2, PbC3H, PbC4H, Pb4CL 1, Pb4CL2, Pb4CL6, PbHC T1 and PbHC T3 genes decreased in fruit, which was consistent with the pattern of variation in CGA content. That indicated that these genes might be key genes for influencing fruit CGA synthesis in Xuehua pear. However, Pb4CL7 gene expression profile is not consistent with variation of CGA content, hence, it may not be a key gene involved in CGA synthesis.展开更多

The catalytic behavior of the catalyst in the cross coupling reaction of acrylic acid (AA) with iodobenzene (ArI) was investigated. Compared with the traditional homogeneous palladium catalysts, the catalyst was easily separated and reused.展开更多

AOCA molecules form highly-ordered adlayer on HOPG spontaneously, stabilized by hydrogen bonding between neighboring molecules. After UV-light irradiation onto the adlayer, the ordered ad- layer was disrupted and a new disordered structure was observed, which indicated that dimerization of AOCA molecules took place. The STM results reveal the direct evidence for the photoisomerization of cin- namic acid at atom level.展开更多
