Two best F4 - derived lines were chosen from each of the six crosses under both high-and low-fertility for use in this study. In 1995, the total 24 lines were tested in high, medium and low fertility sites with the same experimental design (CRB) to study the selcctoin effects of high and low - fertility. The results suggested that high- and low-fertility had different selection effects. High fertility was more effective for selecting lines, which had higher yield under high-fertility and lower yield under low-fertility; low-fertility was better for selecting lines, which had higher yield under low-fertility and lower yield under low-fertility, and high fertility was somewhat better than low fertility for selecting lines, which had higher yield under both high and low-fertility. It revealed that the lines selected from high-fertility had superior yield potential. The lines selected from high-fertility had shorter plant height, more nodes on main stem, fewer branches, higher seed-stem ratio. The reverse was true for the lines selected from low-fertility . The lodging-resistance of the lines selected from highfertility was greater than that of the lines from low-fertility. The soil fertility level of breeding nursery should be chosen according to the breeding objective.展开更多

Our simulated results reveal that the geometry of the square SRR can be equivalent to a Jerusalem cross(JC) resonator and its corresponding metamaterial absorber(MA) is changed to a JC absorber. The JC MA exhibits an experimental absorption peak of 99.1% at 8.72 GHz, which shows an excellent agreement with our simulated results. By simply assembling several JCs with slightly different geometric parameters next to each other into a unit cell, a perfect multi-band absorption can be effectively obtained. The experimental results show that the MA has four distinct and strong absorption peaks at 8.32 GHz, 9.8 GHz, 11.52 GHz and 13.24 GHz. Finally, the multi-reflection interference theory is introduced to interpret the absorption mechanism.展开更多

文摘Motivated by the recent discovery of charge density wave(CDW)order in the magnetic kagomémetal Fe Ge,we study the single-orbital t-N-V_(1)-V_(2)model on the kagomélattice,where N,V_(1),and V_(2)are the onsite,nearest neighbor,and next-nearest-neighbor Coulomb interactions,respectively.When the Fermi level lies in the flat band,the instability toward ferromagnetic(FM)order gives rise to a FM half-metal at sufficiently large onsite N.Intriguingly,at band filling n=17/24,the Fermi level crosses the van Hove singularity of the spin-minority bands of the half-metal.We show that,due to the unique geometry and sublattice interference on the kagomélattice at van Hove singularity,the inter-site Coulomb interactions V_(1) and V_(2)drive a real and an imaginary bond-ordered 2a_(0)×2a_(0) CDW instability,respectively.The FM loop current CDW with complex bond orders is a spin-polarized Chern insulator exhibiting the quantum anomalous Hall effect.The bond fluctuations are found to be substantially enhanced compared to the corresponding nonmagnetic kagomémetals at van Hove filling,providing a concrete model realization of the bond-ordered CDWs,including the FM loop current CDW,over the onsite charge density ordered states.When the spins are partially polarized at an intermediate N,we find that the interplay of CDW and magnetism enables the formation of real and complex bond-ordered CDWs,and the CDW transition is accompanied by a substantial enhancement in the ordered magnetic moments.These findings provide physical insights for the emergence of 2a_(0)×2a_(0) CDWs and their interplay with magnetism on the kagomélattice,and capture the essential physics observed experimentally in Fe Ge.

文摘Wild peanut(Arachis)species are promising sources of disease resistance for improving peanut cultivars.The objective of this study was to assess cross-compatibility among cultivated and wild peanuts in crosses between eight peanut cultivars and 27 wild species carrying the A,B,E,Ex,F,K,P,and H genomes.Embryo culture and chromosome doubling led to polyploids representing hybrids between cultivated peanut and A.stenosperma,A.macedoi,A.duranensis,A.villosa,and A.diogoi.The first two showed greater resistance to bacterial wilt than their cultivated parents.DNA markers were developed for verifying the hybrids and for identifying translocation or introgression lines with alien chromosome fragments.

文摘There is an urgent need for the application of broadband Microwave Absorption(MA)structures on the leading edges of aircraft wings,which requires the MA structures to possess both the broadband MA performance and great surface conformability.To meet these requirements,we designed and fabricated a flexible bioinspired meta-structure with ultra-broadband MA,thin thickness and excellent surface conformality.The carbonyl iron powder-carbon nanotubes-polydimethylsiloxane composite was synthesized by physical blending method for fabricating the MA meta-structure.Through geometry-electromagnetic optimal design by heuristic optimization algorithm,the meta-structure mimicking to the nipple photonic nanostructures on the eyes of moth can achieve ultra-broadband MA performance of 35.14 GHz MA bandwidth(reflection loss≤–10 dB),covering 4.86–40.00 GHz,with thickness of only 4.3 mm.Through simple fabrication processes,the meta-structure has been successfully fabricated and bonded on wings’leading edges,exhibiting excellent surface conformability.Furthermore,the designed flexible MA meta-structure possesses significant Radar Cross-Section(RCS)reduction capability,as demonstrated by the RCS analysis of an unmanned aerial vehicle.This flexible ultra-broadband MA meta-structure provides an outstanding candidate to meet the radar stealth requirement of variable curvature structures on aircraft.
文摘Background:Over the past few decades,a threefold increase in obesity and type 2 diabetes(T2D)has placed a heavy burden on the health-care system and society.Previous studies have shown correlations between obesity,T2D,and neurodegenera-tive diseases,including dementia.It is imperative to further understand the relation-ship between obesity,T2D,and cognitive deficits.Methods:This investigation tested and evaluated the cognitive impact of obesity and T2D induced by high-fat diet(HFD)and the effect of the host genetic background on the severity of cognitive decline caused by obesity and T2D in collaborative cross(CC)mice.The CC mice are a genetically diverse panel derived from eight inbred strains.Results:Our findings demonstrated significant variations in the recorded phenotypes across different CC lines compared to the reference mouse line,C57BL/6J.CC037 line exhibited a substantial increase in body weight on HFD,whereas line CC005 ex-hibited differing responses based on sex.Glucose tolerance tests revealed significant variations,with some lines like CC005 showing a marked increase in area under the curve(AUC)values on HFD.Organ weights,including brain,spleen,liver,and kidney,varied significantly among the lines and sexes in response to HFD.Behavioral tests using the Morris water maze indicated that cognitive performance was differentially affected by diet and genetic background.Conclusions:Our study establishes a foundation for future quantitative trait loci map-ping using CC lines and identifying genes underlying the comorbidity of Alzheimer's disease(AD),caused by obesity and T2D.The genetic components may offer new tools for early prediction and prevention.

文摘High-entropy design is attracting growing interest as it offers unique structures and unprecedented application potential for ma-terials.In this article,a novel high-entropy ferrite(CoNi)_(x/2)(CuZnAl)_((1-x)/3)Fe_(2)O_(4)(x=0.25,0.34,0.40,0.50)with a single spinel phase of space group Fd3m was successfully developed by the solid-state reaction method.By tuning the Co-Ni content,the magnetic properties of the material,especially the coercivity,changed regularly,and the microwave absorption properties were improved.In particular,the ef-fective absorption bandwidth of the material increased from 4.8 to 7.2 GHz,and the matched thickness decreased from 3.9 to 2.3 mm,while the minimum reflection loss remained below-20 dB.This study provides a practical method for modifying the properties of fer-rites used to absorb electromagnetic waves.

文摘In this study,to better decide the effect of coal seam dip angle upon the dynamic change of the crossfusion in gas transport and storage areas during the progress of working face in the high gas thick coal seam,a two-dimensional physical simulation experiment regarded as the theoretical research was conducted to properly explore the variation law of overburden fracture.The results demonstrated that the boundary of the gas transport zone was located in the region of fracture separation.The boundary of the gas storage area was located in the abrupt penetration zone.Also,according to the information theory,the state of the gas transport and storage areas was determined by the changing trend of the fracture rate and fracture entropy.The mathematical representation model of the dip effect in gas transport and storage areas was established.The criteria upon which the regional location of the gas transport area and gas storage area can be based were put forward.The cross-fusion evolution process of the dip effect in gas transport and storage areas was revealed as well.The research results could provide guidance for realising directional and accurate gas extraction.

文摘The neutron capture resonance parameters for 159Tb are crucial for validating nuclear models,nucleosynthesis during the neutron capture process,and nuclear technology applications.In this study,resonance analyses were performed for the neutron capture cross sections of 159Tb measured at the China Spallation Neutron Source(CSNS)backscattering white neutron beamline(Back-n)facility.The resonance parameters were extracted from the R-Matrix code SAMMY and fitted to the experimental capture yield up to the 1.2 keV resolved resonance region(RRR).The average resonance parameters were determined by performing statistical analysis on the set of the resonance parameters in the RRR.These results were used to fit the measured average capture cross sections using the FITACS code in the unresolved resonance region from 2 keV to 1 MeV.The contributions of partial waves l=0,1,2 to the average capture cross sections are reported.

文摘In response to the scarcity of infrared aircraft samples and the tendency of traditional deep learning to overfit,a few-shot infrared aircraft classification method based on cross-correlation networks is proposed.This method combines two core modules:a simple parameter-free self-attention and cross-attention.By analyzing the self-correlation and cross-correlation between support images and query images,it achieves effective classification of infrared aircraft under few-shot conditions.The proposed cross-correlation network integrates these two modules and is trained in an end-to-end manner.The simple parameter-free self-attention is responsible for extracting the internal structure of the image while the cross-attention can calculate the cross-correlation between images further extracting and fusing the features between images.Compared with existing few-shot infrared target classification models,this model focuses on the geometric structure and thermal texture information of infrared images by modeling the semantic relevance between the features of the support set and query set,thus better attending to the target objects.Experimental results show that this method outperforms existing infrared aircraft classification methods in various classification tasks,with the highest classification accuracy improvement exceeding 3%.In addition,ablation experiments and comparative experiments also prove the effectiveness of the method.
