The N application strategies named as former nitrogen moved backward( FNMB) are tested in three ecological regions to optimize the N application in rice. The dry matter accumulation and distribution,yield and quality are studied to understand the formation of yield and quality of rice under different N application strategies. The result indicates that former nitrogen moved backward( FNMB) can increase tiller number and dry matter accumulation; effective ears and yield can be increased with the increase of fertilization; rational nitrogen application can help to establish scientific group structure,harmonize yield component,and then achieve high ratio of input to output and benefit.展开更多

In this study, we cloned the mouse homologue gene by sequence alignment and RT-PCR methods and designated it as mHongl. The mHongl gene is located on chromosome 12p14, spanning five exons. The cDNA sequence consists of 1257 nucleotides and encodes a 419 amino-acid protein with a predicted N-terminal signal peptide of 20 amino acids. The mHongl mRNA shows similarity with HongrES1 in the expression patterns: (i) specific expression in epididymal tissue, especially in the cauda region; and (ii) androgen-dependence but testicular fluid factor independence. Its protein product shows 71% similarity with HongrES 1 and contains a classical serpin domain as does HongrES1. A polyclonal antibody against mHongl with high specificity and sensitivity was raised. Like HongrES1, the mHongl protein shows a checker-board expression pattern in the epididymal epithelium and is secreted into the epididymal lumen. The mHongl protein shows higher glycosylation than HongrES1. Although both of them are deposited onto the sperm head surface, mHongl is localized to the equatorial segment, which is different from that of HongrES 1. The mHongl protein can be removed from the sperm membrane by high ionic strength and therefore can be classed as an extrinsic membrane protein. Collectively, we conclude that mHongl is the homologue of HongrES1 and the present work paves the way for establishing animal models to elucidate the precise functions of HongrES1 and mHongl.展开更多
