In tropical species, little is known about the influence of color on social interactions and mate attraction. We evaluated the chromatic variation of 136 adult Saffron Finches(Sicalis ffiaveola) in Cali and Jamundí, Colombia. Our aim was to determine whether plumage coloration in this social, abundant, and widely distributed species is a signal used in mate choice and establishment of hierarchies. We predicted that there was intrasexual chromatic variation in crown and throat, and that individuals with higher saturation, regardless of sex, would be preferred by opposite sex and they would be dominant in intrasexual aggressive interactions, reflecting better condition. We quantified the reflectance of the crown and throat with visible and ultraviolet light(300–700 nm) subsequent to the molecular sex determination of each individual. Our results suggest that the chromatic variation in the crown and throat is explained by the perception of medium and long wavelengths in both sexes. Additionally, saturation is the color characteristic that best explains the chromatic variation. We formed duos of individuals based on chromatic contrast and conducted 23 mate choice experiments and 21 dominance experiments. The analysis of spectra and experiments revealed that dominance in males was associated with less saturated crowns. Our results reveal that in the Saffron Finches the “negatively correlated handicap” is a plausible hypothesis. Crown color appears to mediate dominance interactions, with less saturated males potentially taking greater risks to gain access to resources.展开更多

The strain Bacillus wiedmannii ES2-45 can efficiently reduce 5 mmol/L Se(Ⅳ) into SeNPs over 14 h and 1 mmol/L Cr(Ⅵ) within 36 h. Proteomic analysis and qRT-PCR revealed that reductases, including dithiol oxidoreductase(DsbA), Fe-S biosynthesis domain-containing protein(Fes),and aldose-6-phosphate reductase(Aldo), and bacillithiol(BSH) were involved in Se(Ⅳ) reduction. Heterologous expression further confirmed the Se(Ⅳ)-reducing function of three genes and enhanced the Se(Ⅳ) and Cr(Ⅵ) resistance ability. Moreover, the difference between Se(Ⅳ) treatments and controls both intra-and extra-cellular BSH concentration per biomass indicated that BSH contributes to Se(Ⅳ) reduction. Selenium-fortified rice was obtained by foliar spray of SeNPs synthesized by the strain ES2-45. To the best of our knowledge, DsbA and Aldo reductase were firstly verified for the role in Se(Ⅳ) reduction and Cr(Ⅵ)resistance. Importantly, it is a promising strategy that B. wiedmannii ES2-45 is served as an efficient bacterium for SeNP synthesis, selenium biofortification and heavy metal bioremediation.展开更多

The effects of Na2 Cr O4 on the neutralization curve, Al(OH)3 precipitation efficiency and induction period of bayerite were investigated. The results indicate that the neutralization curve of the artificial chromate alkali solutions shows three distinct regions and its induction period is longer than that of pure sodium aluminate solutions at the same aluminum concentration. And the decreased temperature and volume fraction of CO2 enhance the particle size of bayerite β-Al(OH)3. Bayerite composed of agglomerates of rods and cone frustums was obtained from alkali metal chromate solutions with 28.5% CO2(volume fraction) at temperatures ranging from 50 °C to 70 °C. Coarse bayerite with particle size(d50) from 24.2 μm to 29.3 μm extremely has few impurities, which is suitable for comprehensive utilization.展开更多

The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, mole ratio of potassium carbonate to carbon ferrochrome were studied, and thermodynamics and kinetics were also discussed. It was observed that the reaction temperature and reaction time had a significant influence on the roasting reaction of carbon ferrochrome. The reaction mechanism changed greatly as the temperature varied. A two-stage roasting process was favorable for the roasting reaction, and a chromium recovery rate of 97.06% was obtained through this two-stage roasting method. The chromium residue yielded from this method was only 1/3 of the product. Moreover, the component of Fe in the residue was as high as 55.04%. Therefore, it can be easily recovered to produce sponge iron, realizing complete detoxication and zero-emission of chromium residue.展开更多

In this work, carbonization was used to remove aluminates from a synthetic chromate leaching solution containing a high K2O/Al2O3 mole ratio. The influence of reaction temperature, carbonization time, flow rate of carbon dioxide, and seed ratio on the precipitation of Al was investigated. The optimal output was obtained under the following experimental conditions: a reaction temperature of 50 °C, a carbonization time of 100 min, a carbon dioxide flow rate of 0.1 L/min, and a seed ratio of 1.0. Gibbsite was obtained following carbonization. The structure and morphology of the gibbsite were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and laser particle size analyzer. The particle size distribution and morphology of the gibbsite were significantly influenced by the experimental conditions. The gibbsite had a mean particle size (d50) of 16.72μm. The thermal decomposition of the gibbsite was analyzed by XRD and the decomposition path was determined. The obtained coarseα-Al2O3 precipitate, which contains 0.08% Cr2O3 and 0.10% K2O, was suitable for subsequent utilization.展开更多

Within the framework of sparse Bayesian learning, the algorithm extends the relevance vector machine by combining global and local kernels adaptively in the form of multiple kernels, and the improved locality preserving projection (LLP) is then applied to reduce the column dimension of the multiple kernel input matrix to achieve less training time. To estimate the illumination chromaticity, the algorithm is trained by fuzzy central values of chromaticity histograms of a set of images and the corresponding illuminants. Experiments with real images indicate that the proposed algorithm performs better than the support vector machine and the relevance vector machine while requiring less training time than the relevance vector machine.展开更多

We first give a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph G to have circular chromatic number V(G)/α(G) (where V(G) is the vertex number of G and α(G) is its independence number). From this result, we get a necessary and sufficient condition for a vertex-transitive graph to be star extremal as well as a necessary and sufficient condition for a circulant graph to be star extremal. Using these conditions, we obtain several classes of star extremal graphs.展开更多

The correlation relationship between content of TF, TR, TB and L*, a*, b* value was extremely significant at P<0.05. Fresh tea leaves with plucking standard of 1 bud and 2 leaves could man-ufacture black tea with higher content of tea pigment, higher a* and b* value but lower L* value, than those of plucking standard of 1 bud and 3 leaves. But the discrepancy of certain parameter of the two plucking standards changed with vari-eties. Varieties’ quality potential could be concealed by improper plucking standards. Six varieties were divided into four groups on the basis of gross tea polyphenols in fresh tea leaves (GTP), consumption of tea polyphenols to gross tea polyphenols ratio (CTP/GTP) and gross tea pigment to consumption of tea polyphenols ratio (GP/CTP). Hybrid performed the very suitability of black tea manufacturing. To en-sure high quality of made black tea, suitable variety should be chosen and reason-able plucking standard also should be taken into consideration.展开更多

The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, mole ratio of sodium carbonate to carbon ferrochrome were studied, and thermodynamics and kinetics of the reaction were also discussed. It was observed that there was a sudden increase in reaction rate when the temperature rose to a certain value, and the sample with a smaller grain size could start the sudden increase at a lower temperature. The chromium recovery rate increased with the increase of mole ratio of sodium carbonate to carbon ferrochrome, and it reached up to 99.34% when mole ratio of sodium carbonate to carbon ferrochrome increased to 1.2:1. The chromium residue yielded from this method was only about 1/3 of the product. Moreover, the content of Fe in the residue was as high as 60.41%. Therefore, it can be easily recovered to produce sponge iron, realizing complete detoxication and zero-emission of chromium residue.展开更多

To estimate the illumination chromaticity, the algorithm is trained by fuzzy central values of chromaticity histograms of a set of images and the corresponding illuminants. Experiments with real images indicate that the proposed algorithm performs better than the support vector machine and the relevance vector machine while requiring less training time than the relevance vector machine.
文摘In this paper, using the properties of chromatic polynomial, we discuss the color-partition of the complement of lK 1∪(∪C u i),and characterize the graph with the same color-partition as the class graph under u i≠4k+2.
文摘A graph is called star extremal if its fractional chromatic number is equal to its circular chromatic number. We first give a necessary and sufficient condition for a graph G to have circular chromatic number V(G)/α(G) (where V(G) is the vertex number of G and α(G) is its independence number). From this result, we get a necessary and sufficient condition for a vertex-transitive graph to be star extremal as well as a necessary and sufficient condition for a circulant graph to be star extremal. Using these conditions, we obtain several classes of star extremal graphs.
文摘Chromatic adaptation of human eyes to complex field is investigated using binocular asymmetric matching method. The results show that the leve of chromatic adapta- tion mainly depends on the average color of adapting field, whereas no obvious change oc- curs when the number of hues and their color differences vary in a complex field. The shifts of perceived color evoked by chromatic adaptation in CIE 1976 L U V color space are approximately proportional to the average color difference between the adapting field and reference field.

文摘Effects of varieties on the content of tea pigment, L*, a* and b* value of chromatic aberration of black tea infusion was studied. The correlation relationship between content of TF, TR, TB and L*, a*, b* value was extremely significant at P<0.05. Fresh tea leaves with plucking standard of 1 bud and 2 leaves could man-ufacture black tea with higher content of tea pigment, higher a* and b* value but lower L* value, than those of plucking standard of 1 bud and 3 leaves. But the discrepancy of certain parameter of the two plucking standards changed with vari-eties. Varieties’ quality potential could be concealed by improper plucking standards. Six varieties were divided into four groups on the basis of gross tea polyphenols in fresh tea leaves (GTP), consumption of tea polyphenols to gross tea polyphenols ratio (CTP/GTP) and gross tea pigment to consumption of tea polyphenols ratio (GP/CTP). Hybrid performed the very suitability of black tea manufacturing. To en-sure high quality of made black tea, suitable variety should be chosen and reason-able plucking standard also should be taken into consideration.

文摘An oxidizing roasting process of carbon ferrochrome to prepare sodium chromate in the presence of sodium carbonate and air was investigated. The effects of reaction temperature, reaction time, mole ratio of sodium carbonate to carbon ferrochrome were studied, and thermodynamics and kinetics of the reaction were also discussed. It was observed that there was a sudden increase in reaction rate when the temperature rose to a certain value, and the sample with a smaller grain size could start the sudden increase at a lower temperature. The chromium recovery rate increased with the increase of mole ratio of sodium carbonate to carbon ferrochrome, and it reached up to 99.34% when mole ratio of sodium carbonate to carbon ferrochrome increased to 1.2:1. The chromium residue yielded from this method was only about 1/3 of the product. Moreover, the content of Fe in the residue was as high as 60.41%. Therefore, it can be easily recovered to produce sponge iron, realizing complete detoxication and zero-emission of chromium residue.
