Studies have shown that the stress tolerance of cereal plants to osmotic or salinity stresses can be improved to varying degrees by the overexpression of an introduced betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH) gene. In the present study, the HvBADH1 gene from Hordeum vulgare L. var. nudum Hook. f., encoding a cytosolic BADH, was transferred into Triticum aestivum via traditional Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated...
Bio-oxidation of methane in a landfill environment is important for mitigating global methane emissions into the atmosphere. In the present study, the characteristics of methane bio-oxidation and methane-oxidizing microorganisms were studied by enrichment cultivation using fresh and aged leachate (collected from Qizishan Landfill, Suzhou, China). Both aerobic and anaerobic methane oxidation were detected,...
It is clear that the advantages of fibre gla ss-reinforced pla stics sur pa ss those of steel , but the failure analysis of compositestructures is much more complex than that of isotropic materials as composite materials may fail in a variety of ways. In order to simulate the damage and fracture of bolted joints of fibre reinforced composite, the bond-based peridynamic method suitable for elastic,...
The Gram-negative facultative anaerobe Bacteroides fragilis (B. fragilis) constitutes an appreciable proportion of the human gastrointestinal (GI)‑tract microbiome. As is typical of most Gram-negative bacilli, B. fragilis secretes an unusually complex mixture of neurotoxins including 2 extremely pro-inflammatory species: (i) a B. fragilis‑associated lipopolysaccharide BF‑LPS; and (ii) a B. fragilis-derived...
A comprehensive analysis of normalized difference vegetation index (NDVI), land-use type, and digital elevation model (DEM) data by using the geographic information system (GIS) showed that the index had increased over time in 84 prefectures that were part of the Grain for Green Project. SPOT Vegetation (Satellite Pour l’Observation de la Terre Vegetation, or satellite observation of the earth’s vegetation)...
