DNAb was essential for induction of characteristic symptoms in plants. DNAb has three structural features: an 115 bp highly conserved region, bC1 gene and A-Rich region. The in-frame ATG mutation of bC1 gene of Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus isolate Y10 (TYLCCNV-TY10) DNAb demonstrated that bC1 gene is required for leaf curl symptom. Here, the function of A-Rich region in TYLCCNV-Y10 DNAb was identified. When A-Rich region was deleted, the A-Rich deleted mutant was still capable of replication and systemic infection in plant, indicating that A-Rich region is not required for trans-replication of DNAb. The immunotrapping-PCR demonstrated that A-Rich de-leted mutant could be encapsidated in the coat protein en-coded by TYLCCNV-Y10 DNA-A, suggesting that A-Rich region is not related with DNAb encapsidation. However, the A-Rich region deleted mutant caused milder symptom.展开更多

The geochemistry of rare-earth elements (REE), yttrium, thorium and uranium forms the basis for many important methods to reconstruct igneous petrogenesis. Since the recognition that REE, Y, Th, U-rich accessories may play an important role in controlling the geochemistry of crustal melts, a considerable amount of work has been done in an attempt to understand their effects. However, this effort has been almost exclusively focused on three minerals: zircon, monazite and apatite. Nevertheless, the variety of REE-Th-U-rich accessories in granite rocks are neither limited to these three minerals nor are they always the main REE, Y, Th carriers. The geochemistry of REE, Y, Th and U reflects the behavior of accessories and some key major minerals such as garnet and feldspars, and may therefore give valuable information about the conditions of partial melting, melt segregation and crystallization of granite magmas in different crustal regimes. The geochemistry of U and Th during magmatic differentiation has been studied in many granites from different areas and it has been known that the U and Th contents of granitic rocks generally increase during differentiation, although in some cases they decrease. The Th/U ratio can either increase or decrease, depending on redox conditions, the volatile content or alteration by endogene or supergene solutions. The accessory assemblage of muscovite-rich granites and high-grade rocks is composed of monazite, xenotime, apatite, Th-orthosilicate, secondary U-mineralization and betafite-pyrochlore. REE, Y, Th and U are not suitable for geochemical modeling of granitoids by means of equilibrium-based trace element fractionation equations, but are still useful petrogenetic tools.展开更多

As REE contentsof vegetables for A region are different from B region, it suggeststhat there are a lot of factors controlling REE distribution betweenvegetables. Comparing with thenormal region, soluble RE contentsin water of the RE-rich backgroundregions are factors of 68 and 18than that of the normal region.REE contents of the most plantsand crops in A and B regions arehigher than that in the normal region. It is clear that REE are theindispensable elements of plantsduring their growing period. Asthere are unusually higher REEcontents of some plants in A and Bthan in the normal regions, it isconsidered to result from absorbingREE passively during the period ofplants and crops growing up.展开更多
