Drought affects the growth and development of rice from direct seeding or transplanting to maturity in northern China. It is important carry out QTL mapping for drought tolerance improve breeding. In this study, a RIL population consisting 253 families was constructed by crossing Miyang 23 with Jileng 1. The leaf rolling index (LRI), withering degree (LWD) chlorophyll content (LCC) were measure...

The short stature homeobox gene SHOX encodes a transcription factor which is important for normal limb development. In humans, SHOX deficiency has been associated with various short stature syndromes including Leri-Weill dyschondrosteosis (LWD), Langer mesomelic dysplasia and Turner syndrome as well as non-syndromic idiopathic short stature. A common feature of these syndromes is disproportiona...

Azimuth electromagnetic (EM) Logging While Drilling (LWD) tools play an important role in geological steering and reservoir evaluation. Its measuring response is amplitude ratio (ATT) phase difference (PS), which can’t directly reflect formation information. To obtain direct information such as resistivity boundary, accurate efficient inversion method essential. However, the existing methods (i...

Mutualistic relationships between plants and their pollinators have played a major role in the evolution of biodiversity. While the vulnerability of these relationships to environmental change is a major concern, studies often lack a framework for predicting impacts from emerging threats (e.g. biological invasions). The objective of this study was to determine the reliance of Platanthera ciliar...

The development of a simple, easy-to-use, and noninvasive vaccination system is in high demand. For transcutaneous immunization (TCI), we previously reported that a hydrogel patch was an effective TCI device that accelerates antigen penetration through the stratum corneum in mouse and rat models. The present study was performed to characterize the transcutaneous protein delivery induced by the ...
