Remobilization of Nitrogen and Carbohydrate from Stems of Bread Wheat in Response to Heat Stress during Grain Filling

When wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is grown under heat-stress conditions during grain filling, preanthesis stored total non-structural carbohydrates (TNC) and nitrogen (N) could serve as alternative source of assimilates. This study was performed to evaluate wheat genotypes for their ability to accumulate and remobilize TNC and N stored in their stem to support grain filling under heat stress. Eighteen genotypes were used for N remobilization study while nine of them were used for TNC remobilization study. They were grown in pots and placed in a vinyl house with the maximum temperature kept below 30 °C. Five days after anthesis (5DAA), half of the pots were taken to phytotrons where temperature was gradually increased and the maximum was set at 38 °C. Grain yield and grain weight decreased by about 35 % under heat stress. Significant differences were found among genotypes in percentage reduction in grain yield, grain weight, grain filling duration and harvest index because of heat stress. The N and TNC concentrations of the stem at 5DAA were significantly different among genotypes. Heat stress significantly reduced the N remobilization efficiency of most of genotypes. However, heat stress significantly increased TNC remobilization efficiency and significant variation were observed among genotypes. N remobilization efficiency across treatments significantly correlated with grain yield, grain weight, harvest index and grain filling duration. TNC at 5DAA negatively correlated with N at 5DAA and harvest index, but the TNC remobilization efficiency under heat stress positively correlated with mainstem grain yield, grain weight and harvest index. The rate of chlorophyll loss from flag leaf positively correlated with N and TNC remobilization efficiencies under heat stress suggesting a link between leaf senescence and remobilization efficiency. The results indicate that heat stress negatively affected grain yield, its components and N remobilization while it increased TNC remobilization because of the increasing demand for resources.     

提取方法对饲用苎麻绿原酸和总黄酮提取效率的影响

为了研究提取方法对饲用苎麻绿原酸和总黄酮提取效益的影响,笔者采用真空冷冻干燥和热风干燥2种不同的干燥提取方法,对‘湘饲苎X1’和宁远苎麻的各部位器官进行了绿原酸和总黄酮的定量提取。分析得率差异表明:无论是绿原酸还是总黄酮,‘湘饲苎X1’和宁远苎麻不同部位器官的测定含量,均表现为真空冷冻干燥样品明显高于热风干燥。在真空冷冻条件下,‘湘饲苎X1’的营养根、叶片、地下茎和茎的绿原酸测定含量提高幅度都大于100%,各器官总黄酮测定含量提高幅度也超过了1倍,且茎提高了6.08倍。宁远苎麻在真空冷冻干条件下,叶、地下茎、营养根、茎中绿原酸和总黄酮测定含量也都大幅提高。由此可见,在饲用苎麻药理成分含量的提取工艺上,真空冷冻干燥方式明显优于热风干燥方式。     

A Review on Class D Audio Power Amplifier Control Techniques

Although class D amplifier has high efficiency, its distortion is larger than linear counterparts due to switching behaviour of power transistors. It is the hotspot of power electronics and audio power amplifier that researching new control technique to improve fidelity of class D amplifier. In this paper, a few novel control techniques in class D audio power amplifier are reviewed.     

Inheritance of flower colour and flavonoid pigments in Gerbera

The flower colour of Gerbera, an important ornamental cut flower, is derived from carotenoids and flavonoids. The knowledge of enzymological and genetic control of flavonoid biosynthesis is still incomplete. The present paper summarizes the results obtained at our institute between 1981 and 1993. The material for the investigation of phenotypic segregation and segregation of flavonoids after chromatographic analysis came from 408 progenies of controlled crosses. Phenotypic segregation analysis showed acyanic genotypes to be homozygous recessive and recessive epistatic over cyanic genotypes, respectively. This was confirmed by the existence of two loci controlling steps in biosynthesis (fht, dfr or ans) showing recessive mutants and complementary gene action after crosses. Flavone formation is effected by one dominant allele (fns⁺); dominant and recessive genotypes are now available. Regarding anthocyanidin inheritance, an unusual epistasis of 4′-hydroxylation (pelargonidin formation) over 3′,4′-hydroxylation (cyanidin formation) was observed. Final proof of the postulated gene actions will come from enzymological and molecular biological investigations of the chemogenetically defined Gerbera genotypes now available.
