Analysis on Resistance of Rice Cultivar Lianjing 7 to Rice Black-streaked Dwarf Disease

To analyze the resistance of Lianjing 7 against rice black-streaked dwarf disease and find the molecular markers closely linked with the resistance gene, an F2：3 population derived from an RBSDD-resistant cultivar Lianjing 7 and an RBSDD-susceptible cultivar Peiai 64, was evaluated using natural infection methods and artificial inoculation by scoring the disease severity rating. The results showed Lianjing 7 was resistant to RBSDD, with the incidence between 5.5% and 12.25% in all tests. For the parents of Lianjing 7, only Zhongjingchuan-2 was resistant to RBSDD. Besides this, Lianjing 7 assumed an antixenosis and antibiosis score similar with susceptible variety Wuyujing 3, which indicates that so RBSDD-resistance of Lianjing 7 is mainly caused by the resistance specifically to RBSDV. In the F2：3 population of Lianjing 7/Peiai 64, the disease severity rates showed a continuous distribution with transgressive segregation, it indicated the resistance of Lianjing 7 was controlled by multi-genes. The marker RM287 was determined closely linked with the resistance locus via BSA method. To conclude, Lianjing 7 has a high resistance to RBSDD, which is conferred with by Zhongjingchuan-2, and the marker RM287 should be useful for breeding novel RBSDD-resistant cultivars via marker-assisted selection （MAS）.

Analysis of the Superconducting Cable Transposition in Low Resistance CICC Joint

In an integrated structure low resistance CICC joint, current is conducted by outer cable strands coming into touch with the conductive Cu sole. So it is an important condition for satisfying joint performance that each strand of the cable inside the joint is able to come to the outermost by transposition. This paper presents analysis, calculation and figures for the strand transposition. According to the twist procedures of the superconducting cable, the author computed the actual pitch of each stage cable, consecutively computed the projection of each stage cable on the axis of the cable (z axis) and the corresponding twist angle as the z coordinate changes, which is then drawn by AutoCAD. From the results shown in the figures, the minimal cable length, which enables each strand to transpose almost equally to the outermost of the cable in such a length, call be determined as the optimal joint length.

Quantitative trait loci detection of E dwardsiella tarda resistance in Japanese flounder Paralichthys olivaceus using bulked segregant analysis

In recent years, Edwardsiella tarda has become one of the most deadly pathogens of Japanese fl ounder( Paralichthys olivaceus), causing serious annual losses in commercial production. In contrast to the rapid advances in the aquaculture of P. o livaceus, the study of E. tarda resistance-related markers has lagged behind, hindering the development of a disease-resistant strain. Thus, a marker-trait association analysis was initiated, combining bulked segregant analysis(BSA) and quantitative trait loci(QTL) mapping. Based on 180 microsatellite loci across all chromosomes, 106 individuals from the F1333(♀: F0768 ×♂: F0915)(Nomenclature rule: F+year+family number) were used to detect simple sequence repeats(SSRs) and QTLs associated with E. tarda resistance. After a genomic scan, three markers(Scaffold 404-21589, Scaffold 404-21594 and Scaffold 270-13812) from the same linkage group(LG)-1 exhibited a signifi cant difference between DNA, pooled/bulked from the resistant and susceptible groups( P <0.001). Therefore, 106 individuals were genotyped using all the SSR markers in LG1 by single marker analysis. Two different analytical models were then employed to detect SSR markers with different levels of signifi cance in LG1, where 17 and 18 SSR markers were identifi ed, respectively. Each model found three resistance-related QTLs by composite interval mapping(CIM). These six QTLs, designated q E1–6, explained 16.0%–89.5% of the phenotypic variance. Two of the QTLs, q E-2 and q E-4, were located at the 66.7 c M region, which was considered a major candidate region for E. tarda resistance. This study will provide valuable data for further investigations of E. tarda resistance genes and facilitate the selective breeding of disease-resistant Japanese fl ounder in the future.

Genetic Analysis of Stripe Rust Resistance of Xikemai 6 at Adult Plant Stage

To confirm resistance and genetic rules of Xikemai 6 against physiological races of wheat stripe rust,physiological races CYR31,CYR32 and CYR33,Su11-4 and V26 were inoculated in Xikemai 6 and Mingxian 169 and their hybrid progenies F_1,F_2 and F_3 at adult plant stage on March 2015. The results showed that the resistance of Xikemai 6 against CYR31 was controlled by 2 pairs of dominant genes and a pair of recessive genes; the resistance against CYR32 was controlled by three pairs of dominant resistant genes（ two pairs of genes performed cumulative effect）; the resistance against CYR33 was controlled by a pair of dominant genes and a pair of recessive genes; the resistance against Su11-4 was controlled by a pair of dominant genes and a pair of recessive genes independently or collaboratively; the resistance against V26 was controlled by a pair of dominant genes independently. Due to good performance of Xikemai 6 in test and production,as well as years of resistance identification and genetic analysis,Xikemai 6 was proved to be an excellent cultivar with good resistance against stripe rust,and the inheritance of its resistance was stable,so Xikemai 6 could be used as a germplasm resource and resistance material with excellent comprehensive character. Molecular marker and localization could be further studied,to provide new resistance parents for disease-resistant breeding of wheat.

Resistance Evaluation of Indica Rice Varieties with Bacterial Blight Resistance Genes Xa21 and Xa23 under Different Genetic Backgrounds

[Objectives]The paper was to evaluate the resistance of indica rice varieties with bacterial blight resistance genes Xa21 and Xa23 under different genetic backgrounds.[Methods]The rice materials with bacterial blight resistance genes Xa21 or Xa23 were used as the donors,and those without the genes were used as the receptors.By back crossing,composite crossing and other methods,combined with molecular marker-assisted selection(MAS),the materials with Xa21 or Xa23 gene,and their sister lines with/without Xa21 or Xa23 gene were inoculated with 7 widely used physiological races of Xanthomonas oryzae,and the resistance of the materials to bacterial blight was analyzed.[Results]The proportions of cumulative resistance(HR,R,MR)of rice materials with resistance gene Xa21 were HNA1-4/PXO86(84.62%)>YN24(82.14%)>GD1358(73.08%)>PXO99(67.86%)>GDA2(63.33%)>FuJ(6.67%),indicating that the materials with Xa21 gene had no resistance to bacterial blight induced by strain FuJ,but for other strains,there were still 36.67%-15.38%of the materials susceptible to the disease.The cumulative resistance(HR,R,MR)of the materials with Xa23 gene was over 76%,but there were still 23.02%-15.52%of the materials that had no resistance to the 7 strains.The analysis of variation coefficient of lesion length showed that the resistance of materials with Xa21 or Xa23 genes varied among strains,or the resistance to the same strain varied among materials.Correlation analysis demonstrated that there was significant or extremely significant positive correlation between strain GDA2 or HNA1-4 and other 6 corresponding strains in the materials with Xa21 gene,and there was extremely significant positive correlation between strain YN24,GD1358 or PXO86 and other 6 corresponding strains in the materials with Xa23 gene.Selection of these strains for resistance identification could improve the efficiency of breeding.Analysis of sister lines showed that bacterial blight resistance of Xa21 or Xa23 genes was related to the donor of the materials.Correlation analysis showed that the resistance of the materials with Xa21 gene had extremely significant positive correlation with parents(R=0.5725**),and the resistance of the materials with Xa23 gene had significant positive correlation with parents(R=0.2212*).[Conclusions]The study provides the reference for molecular resistance breeding of bacterial blight.

Time delay is inserted in the operation process and random number is precharged to the circuit during the delay time,the normal schedule is disturbed and the power is randomized. Following this meth-odology,a general DPA resistance random precharge architecture is proposed and DES algorithm following this architecture is implemented. This countermeasure is testified to be efficient to resist DPA.

Contact Resistance and Arc Erosion of Tungsten-copper Contacts in Direct Currents

The arc erosion under medium direct currents in the argon flow was tested on tungsten-copper（W-Cu） contacts which were processed by hot extrusion and heat treatment. The scanning electron microscopy（SEM） and transmission electron microscopy（TEM） were used to study the microstructure of the W-Cu powders and compacts. The contact resistance, arcing energy, and arcing time were continuously measured by JF04C contact materials test system. Changes in tungsten-copper contact surface were observed by SEM. The test results showed that the arcing time and arcing energy all increase with current and voltage, but the changes of average contact resistance are more complicated. For a short arcing time, the average contact resistance decreases with increasing current due to the vaporization of Cu. However, for a longer arcing time, it slightly increases due to the formation of high resistant films, compound copper tungsten. The formation of compound copper tungsten was confirmed by the increased Rc kept in the range from 1.1 to 1.6 mΩ. The compound copper tungsten is first exposed with a tungsten and copper-rich surface, and then totally exposed due to evaporation of copper from the surface. At last a stabilized surface is created and the crystals decrease from 8 μm to 2 μm caused by the arc erosion.

Numerical Simulation of Installation Process and Uplift Resistance for An Integrated Suction Foundation in Deep Ocean

A concept design, named integrated suction foundation, is proposed for a tension leg platform（TLP） in deep ocean. The most important improvement in comparing with the traditional one is that a pressure-resistant storage module is designed. It utilizes the high hydrostatic pressure in deep ocean to drive water into the module to generate negative pressure for bucket suction. This work aims to further approve the feasibility of the concept design in the aspect of penetration installation and the uplift force in-place. Seepage is generated during suction penetration, and can have both positive and negative effects on penetration process. To study the effect of seepage on the penetration process of the integrated suction foundation, finite element analysis（FEA） is carried out in this work. In particular, an improved methodology to calculate the penetration resistance is proposed for the integrated suction foundation with respect to the reduction factor of penetration resistance. The maximum allowable negative pressure during suction penetration is calculated with the critical hydraulic gradient method through FEA. The simulation results of the penetration process show that the integrated suction foundation can be installed safely. Moreover, the uplift resistance of the integrated suction foundation is calculated and the feasibility of the integrated suction foundation working on-site is verified. In all, the analysis in this work further approves the feasibility of the integrated suction foundation for TLPs in deep ocean applications.

Increasing Accumulation Level of Foreign Protein in Transgenic Plants Through Protein Targeting

Targeting of the synthesized polypeptide in the cells is an important research field in modern cell biology. Cowpea trypsin inhibitor (cpti) gene has been modified and a fusion protein gene (sck) was produced by fusing a signal peptide sequence at cpti 5' end and an endoplasm reticulum (ER) retention signal peptide at cpti3' end respectively. The signal peptide can direct the newly synthesized polypeptide into ER, while ER retention signal can make the protein retained in the ER and its derivative protein body. ELISA test indicated that the accumulation level of foreign CpTI protein in sck transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) was two times higher than cpti transgenic tobaccos and some individuals were four times higher. At the same time, sck transgenic tobacco has a high resistance to Lepidoptera pest due to the increased accumulation level of foreign CpTI protein. The strategy of foreign protein targeting can be used to increase the accumulation level of foreign protein in transgenic plants and can be widely applied to other related research field in plant genetic engineering.

Experimental and finite element analysis studies of a reduction-force reducing traction method for pelvic fracture surgeries

Pelvic fracture is among the most complicated fractures in traumatic orthopedics,with high mortality and morbidity rates.The main difficulty associated with the reduction surgery is significant muscle resistance.It then becomes necessary to decrease the reduction force against this strong muscle resistance,for improving surgical safety.Here,we propose a novel traction method for decreasing the reduction force during pelvic reduction,and investigate the performance of the elastic traction method on decreasing the reduction force using experimental tests and simulation-based analyses.From the experimental results,the reduction force decreased by 59.2%when 10 kg of elastic traction was applied.We also establish a musculoskeletal model of the pelvic fracture reduction,for analyzing the muscle resistance and the optimal traction force applied in reduction surgeries.The elastic traction method can counteract the muscle resistance increase in the non-traction direction owing to its flexibility.We conclude that the optimal traction force applied should be in the 10–15 kg range,and recommend adopting a dynamic traction strategy rather than continuous traction in clinical settings.Elastic traction is very promising for various surgeries that require traction,including pelvic reduction.It significantly reduces force,which can significantly reduce the physical exertion of the operating surgeon,the possibility of additional injuries to the operated patient,and promotes robot-assisted reduction surgeries.

Characteristics Analysis of Condensation outside Horizontal Tube Bundles and Novel Condensation Enhancement Method

Condensation is a phase-change heat-transfer phenomenon crucial in many industries involving latent heat release and mass transfer.Shell-and-tube condensers are essential contributors to the condensation process,and their tube bundles serve as a substrate.Here,the thermal-hydraulic characteristics of condensation in a longitudinal-flow shell-and-tube condenser were investigated numerically.The shell-side longitudinal-flow condensation on the horizontal tube bundles was studied considering inlet flow rate,overheating temperature,and non-condensable gases.Related pressure drops and heat transfer coefficients were subdivided into several components to provide further insights.Two-phase interface behavior analyses were conducted to demonstrate the outcomes with respect to the non-condensable gas layer,vapor quality,and non-condensable gas type.Based on the thorough quantitative analyses outlined above,the thermal resistance of the condensation on the horizontal tube bundle was investigated.The thermal resistance outside the tube was found to dominate the condensation process.Finally,hexagon clamping baffles(HCBs)were introduced as a novel solution to impair condensate boundary layers and provide perturbations to intensify condensation heat transfer.The results revealed that the HCBs enhanced the total heat transfer coefficients by 8.1%–40.7%while reducing the critical overheating temperature and the threshold ratio between sensible and latent heat.
