Resistance of stored bean varieties to Acanthoscelides obtectus （Coleoptera： Bruchidae）

引用

Insect Science 2008年第4期15卷 317-326页

作者： Edson l.l. Baldin Fernando m. lara Department of Plant Production-Faculty of Agronomic Sciences/Sao Paulo State University Botucatu Sao Paulo State Department of Plant Protection Faculty of Agranan and Veterinary Sciences / Sao Paulo State University Zip Code 14884-900 Jaboticabal Sao Paulo State Brazil

During bean seed storage, yield can be lost due to infestations of Acanthoscelides obtectus Say, the bean weevil. The use of resistant varieties has shown promising results in fighting these insects, reducing infestation levels and eliminating chemical residues from the beans. The expression of resistance to A. obtectus in bean varieties is frequently attributed to the presence of phytohemagglutinins, protease inhibitors and alpha-amylase, and especially to variants of the protein arcelin, which reduce the larval viability of these insects. To evaluate the effect of bean seed storage time on the resistance expression of bean varieties to A. obtectus, tests with seeds of three ages （freshly-harvested, 4-month-old, and 8-monthold） were conducted in the laboratory, using four commercial varieties： Carioca Pitoco, Ipa 6, Porrillo 70, Onix; four improved varieties containing arcelin protein： Arc. 1, Arc.2, Arc. 3, Arc.4; and three wild varieties also containing arcelin protein： ***, Arc.3S, and Arc. 5S. The Arc.5S, ***, and Arc.2 varieties expressed high antibiosis levels against the weevil; Arc.1 and Arc3S expressed the same mechanism, but at lower levels. The occurrence of oviposition non-preference was also observed in Arc.5S and Arc. 1S. The Arc.3 and Arc. 4 varieties expressed low feeding non-preference levels against A. obtectus. The expression of resistance in arcelin-bearing, wild or improved varieties was affected during the storage of seeds, and was high under some parameters but low in others. The results showed that addition of chemical resistance factors such as protein arcelin via genetic breeding may be beneficial in improving the performance of bean crops.

Bilirubin adsorption property of mesoporous silica and amine-grafted mesoporous silica

Nano-micro letters 2009年第1期1卷 14-18页

作者： l.X.Zhang m.Zhu l.m.Guo l.li J.l.Shi State Key laboratory of High Performance and Superfine microstructure Shanghai Institute of Ceramics Chinese Academy of Science

Nephritic, hepatic and immune failures would lead to the overload of endogenous toxic molecules(e.g. bilirubin, cholic acid, uric acid, creatinine etc.) in human bodies. It is fatal in most cases and extracorporeal blood purification(ECBP) is powerful first-aid therapy. Adsorbents are key parts of ECBP apparatus. mesoporous silicas should be promising candidates for these medical adsorbents, but there is no report about this. Herein, pure and amine-grafted mesoporous silicas have been applied to adsorb bilirubin, cholic acid, uric acid, creatinine and phenobarbital for the first time. These mesoporous materials show high adsorption capacities for bilirubin and uric acid in phosphate buffer solution(PBS). Effects of pore sizes, amine-modification, temperature and ionic strength on their bilirubin adsorption capacities have been studied in detail.

A vacuum nano-casting route to magnetite cores/mesoporous silica shell composites

引用

Nano-micro letters 2009年第1期1卷 27-29页

作者： l.m.Guo J.l.Shi State Key laboratory of High Performance and Superfine microstructure Shanghai Institute of Ceramics Chinese Academy of Science

Hollow mesoporous silica spheres with magnetite cores(HmSmC) have been fabricated by Vacuum Nano-casting Route. The amount of magnetite cores and saturation magnetization value can be easily adjusted by changing the concentration of iron nitrate solution used in the synthesis procedure. Furthermore, the as-prepared HmSmCs still maintain narrow mesopore distribution, high surface area and large pore volume after the hollow cores of hollow mesoporous silica spheres were filled with magnetite particles. Specially, when the saturation magnetization value of as-prepared HmSmCs reaches 22.0 emu/g, the surface area and pore volume of corresponding HmSmCs are 149 m^2/g and 0.19 cm^3/g, respectively, and the pore size is 2.30 nm. The corresponding samples are characterized by X-ray diffraction, N_2 sorption isotherms, transmission electron microscopy and vibrating-sample magnetometer.

Bottom-Up Approach towards a Human Wellbeing Assessment for the Design of a management Plan:A Study Case with Contributions to Improve Sustainable management of Resources in a Northern Area of mozambique

The loss of biodiversity and ecosystem services disturbance will result in serious ecological and socioeconomic consequences. How can people be prepared to be more efficient in preserving ecosystems, its services and resources? The messalo Wilderness Area (mWA) is an area lacking a bottom-up approach for the design of a management plan. This research intended to develop a strategy to gather people’s views to begin a human wellbeing assessment for the area, for which a Digital Questionnaire (DQ) was developed and tested. The specific objectives were to 1) verify the dispersion/distribution of people and elephants;2) study the natural resources used by the inhabitants;3) locate the areas from where the most important natural resources are extracted and where conflict between humans and animals occur;4) propose a management Plan (mP) capable of mitigating the human-animals conflict, promoting the conservation of elephants and, consequently, of other types of biodiversity, thus working towards a better socio-economical development of the area. The elements gathered in the consulted references were used to design several maps and cartographic figures shown in this article, using the map Window software. These maps describe: fresh water distribution, habitat distribution, population dispersal and main road connections, crop fields distribution and main exploitation spots of the different resources, orography and topography. The results from the DQ analysis helped to gather indicators to the human wellbeing assessment. The information gathered in the literature and by inquiry was effective in confirming the high dependency of local people on land and sea resources, as well as the conflicts between people and wild animals, such as elephants and African wild dogs, and the reasons for those conflicts. The DQ is effective in gathering people’s opinions and it constitutes an important tool in a bottom-up approach to the design of a management plan as to the design of the mP for

Stochastic averaging of quasi integrable and resonant Hamiltonian systems excited by fractional Gaussian noise with Hurst index 1/2

引用

Acta mechanica Solida Sinica 2017年第1期30卷 11-19页

作者： Q.F.lü m.l.Deng W.Q.Zhu Department of mechanics State Key Laboratory of Fluid Power and Mechatronic SystemsKey Laboratory of Soft Machines and Smart Devices of Zhejiang ProvinceZhejiang University

A stochastic averaging method of quasi integrable and resonant Hamiltonian systems under excitation of fractional Gaussian noise （fGn） with the Hurst index 1/2 〈 H 〈 1 is proposed. First, the definition and the basic property of fGn and related fractional Brownian motion （iBm） are briefly introduced. Then, the averaged fractional stochastic differential equations （SDEs） for the first integrals and combinations of angle variables of the associated Hamiltonian systems are derived. The stationary probability density and statistics of the original systems are then obtained approximately by simulating the averaged SDEs numerically. An example is worked out to illustrate the proposed stochastic averaging method. It is shown that the results obtained by using the proposed stochastic averaging method and those from digital simulation of original system agree well.
