[Method] 20 random primers were used for PCR amplification of genomic DNA of 36 individuals of V. salvator. [Result] 10 primers could produce highly reproducible RAPD bands. A total of 2 952 DNA fragments were successfully amplified. Each individual got 82 amplified bands on average,47 of which showed polymorphism. The polymorphic locus percent was 57.32%. The genetic distance among 36 individuals ranged from 0.035 9 to 0.335 9 with an average of 0.135 9. The Nei＇s gene diversity index （H） and Shannon＇s information index （I） were 0.181 9 and 0.263 0,respectively,indicating that V. salvator had greater genetic diversity. [Conclusion] The phylogenetic tree was inferred by using UPGMA analysis,it was found that the 36 individuals could be classified as one group,and there was no obvious population differentiation.展开更多

In the early 20 thcentury, India is under the British colonial rule and Indians suffer a lot from it. India lacks autonomy and there is a wide racial gap between the British and Indians. In this context, Adela has deeply-rooted prejudice against Indians at first, whose discrimination makes her falsely accuse Aziz of attempting to rape her. However, merging into the Indian society gives Adela a chance to see the goodness of Indians, and finally her racial prejudice is eliminated.展开更多

All the characters appearing in this novel belonged to this breed, living in the never-never land of a new continent devoid of the conventional forces' intervention. More specifically, Calvinism was the domineering religion whose core principles are the sacred pre-determinism and the omnipotence of God, requiring every earthly individual should obey this providence and be self-denied. The Scarlet Letter, a masterpiece of American prestigious writer Nathaniel Hawthorne, was delicately set in such a benighted epoch and manifested a gorgeous portrait of personality constituted by both discreetly religious conformity and spiritual liberty. In the twentieth century, Hawthorne and The Scarlet Letter have continued to grow in esteem as literary criticism moved into university English departments and through waves of Freudians, semiologists, deconstructionists, and postmodernists (Bruce Daniels, 2004). The eccentrically intertwined relationship among the three protagonists has been highly appreciated as an imperishable paragon, which was always been imitated but seldom surpassed. This passage aims to deconstruct the protagonists'personalities from a general perspective展开更多
