For an l-sequence a with connection integer q = p^e(e ≥ 2) and period T = p^t-1(p- 1), and for any integer i, 1 ≤ i ≤ e/2, by calculating the number of certain sets, it is shown that the autocorrelation of a with shift τ= kT/2p^i is Ca(τ) =(-1)^k-1 T/p^2i-1, where 1 ≤ k ≤ 2p^i - 1, and gcd(k,2p^i) = 1. This result shows there do exist some shifts such that the autocorrelations of l-sequences are high although most autocorrelations are low. Such result also holds for the decimations of l-sequences.展开更多

This study presents a feature-driven method that preservescomponent sequences accounting for engineering requirements. The chain-of-bars design variables setting scheme is developedto realize the sequential component’s layout, which sets the current bar’s end point as the next bar’s start point. The total lengthof the printing path is constrained to reduce the consumption of material accurately. Also, the angle between adjacent bars isconstrained to avoid sharp angles at the turning point of the 3D printing path. Next, the sensitivity analysis considering theinter-dependence of substructures is performed. Several numerical examples are given to demonstrate the validity and merits ofthe proposed method in designing structures preserving component sequences.展开更多

CDS are most commonly obtained using complementary DNA (cDNA) derived from messenger RNA (mRNA) extracted from plant tissues and generated by reverse transcription. However, some CDS are difficult to acquire through this process as they are expressed at extremely low levels or have specific spatial and/or temporal expression patterns in vivo. These challenges require the development of alternative CDS cloning technologies. In this study, we found that the genomic intron-containing gene coding sequences (gDNA) from Arabidopsis thaliana, Oryza sativa, Brassica napus, and Glycine max can be correctly transcribed and spliced into mRNA in Nicotiana benthamiana. In contrast, gDNAs from Triticum aestivum and Sorghum bicolor did not function correctly. In transient expression experiments, the target DNA sequence is driven by a constitutive promoter. Theoretically, a sufficient amount of mRNA can be extracted from the N. benthamiana leaves, making it conducive to the cloning of CDS target genes. Our data demonstrate that N. benthamiana can be used as an effective host for the cloning CDS of plant genes.展开更多

The 6VS was microdissected with a needle and transferred into a 0.5 mL Ep tube. In the 'single tube', all the subsequence steps were conducted. After two round of LA (Linker adaptor)_PCR amplification, the size of PCR bands ranged from 100 to 3 000 bp, with predominate bands 600-1 500 bp. The products were confirmed by Southern blotting analysis using Haynaldia villosa (L.) Schur. genomic DNA labeled with 32 P as probe. The PCR products were purified and ligated into clone vector-pGEM_T easy vector. Then, the plasmids were transformed into competence E. coli JM109 with cool CaCl 2. It was estimated that there were more than 17 000 white clones in the library. The size of insert fragments distributed from 100-1 500 bp, with average of 600 bp. Using H. villosa genomic DNA as probe, dot blotting results showed that 37% clones displayed strong and medium positive signals, and 63% clones had faint or no signals. It is demonstrated that there were about 37% repeat sequence clones and 67% single/unique sequence clones in the library. Eight H. villosa_specific clones were screened from the library, and two clones pHVMK22 and pHVMK134 were used for RFLP analysis and sequencing. Both of them were H. villosa specific clones. The pHVMK22 was a unique sequence clone, and the pHVMK134 was a repeat sequence clone. When the pHVMK22 was used as a probe for Southern hybridization, all the powdery mildew resistance materials showed a special band of 2 kb, while all the susceptible ones not. The pHVMK22 may be applied to detect the existence of Pm21.展开更多

This class of sequences was proposed to play a critical role in the stabilization and establishment of nascent plant polyploids as new species. To further study this issue, five wheat chromosome 7B_specific sequences, isolated from common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) by chromosome microdissection, were characterized. The sequences were studied by genomic Southern hybridizations on a collection of polyploid wheats and their diploid progenitors. Four sequences hybridized to all polyploid species, but at the diploid level to only species closely related to the B_genome of polyploid wheat. This indicates that these sequences originated with the divergence of the diploid species, and was then vertically transmitted to polyploids. One sequence hybridized to all species at both the diploid and polyploid levels, suggesting its elimination after the polyploid wheat formation. The hybridization of this sequence to two synthetic polyploid wheats indicated that sequence elimination is a rapid event and probably related to methylation status of the sequence. Based on the above results, we suggest that selective changes of low_copy sequences occur rapidly after polyploid formation, which may contribute to the differentiation of chromosomes in newly formed allopolyploid wheats.展开更多

Comparison with trnL-F IGS sequence, the ITS region provided the higher number of parsimony informative characters, and the interspecific variation of the ITS sequence was higher than that of the trnL-F IGS sequence.The tree obtained by combining both sets of data showed that the species sampled in Arundinaria and the related genera were monophyletic and divided into two clades. The relationships and positioning of all the taxa surveryed (including A. oleosa, A. hsienchuensis, A. chino, A. amara, A. yixingensis, A. amabilis, A. fortunei, A. pygmaea, A. gramineus, A. fargesii, A. faberi, A. hupehense, Pseudosasa japonica cv. Tsutsumiana, P. japonica and Brachystachyum densiflorum) were also discussed. The results from the sequences were broadly consistent with morphological characters, appearing all these taxa sampled belong to the genus of Arundinaria. The topologies of the trees generated from individual data and the combined data were similar.展开更多

Maximum parsimony, maximum undertaken based on analysis of the internal transcribed and by combining data from nrDNA ITS and chloroplast likelihood, and Bayesian analyses all support the conclusion that the reinstated genus Ptychostomum is not monophyletic. Ptychostomum funkii (Schwagr.) J. R. Spence (≡ Bryum funkii Schwaigr.) is placed within a clade containing the type species of Bryum, B. argenteum Hedw. The remaining members of Ptychostomum investigated in the present study constitute another well-supported clade. The results are congruent with previous molecular analyses. On the basis of phylogenetic evidence, we agree with transferring B. amblyodon Mull. Hal. (≡ B. inclinatum (Brid.) Turton≡ Bryum archangelicum Bruch & Schimp.), Bryum lonchocaulon Mull.

Based on the chi square statistic test, some explanations about why to choose higher order Markov chain model and how to automatically select the proper order are given in this paper. The chi square test is first run on synthetic data sets to show that it can efficiently find the proper order of Markov chain. Using chi square test, distinct higher order context dependences inherent in ten sets of sequences of yeast S.cerevisiae from other literature have been found. So the Markov chain with higher order would be more suitable for modeling the non coding background sequences than an independent model.展开更多

文摘In this paper, the autocorrelations of maximal period Feedback with Carry Shift Register sequences (l-sequences) are discussed. For an l-sequence a with connection integer q = p^e(e ≥ 2) and period T = p^t-1(p- 1), and for any integer i, 1 ≤ i ≤ e/2, by calculating the number of certain sets, it is shown that the autocorrelation of a with shift τ= kT/2p^i is Ca(τ) =(-1)^k-1 T/p^2i-1, where 1 ≤ k ≤ 2p^i - 1, and gcd(k,2p^i) = 1. This result shows there do exist some shifts such that the autocorrelations of l-sequences are high although most autocorrelations are low. Such result also holds for the decimations of l-sequences.

文摘The material T240_6 derived from SC 2 young embryo of the combination CA9211/RW15 (6D/6V alien substitution) was telosomic substitution line of 6VS identified by GISH (genomic in situ hybridization) analysis. The 6VS was microdissected with a needle and transferred into a 0.5 mL Ep tube. In the 'single tube', all the subsequence steps were conducted. After two round of LA (Linker adaptor)_PCR amplification, the size of PCR bands ranged from 100 to 3 000 bp, with predominate bands 600-1 500 bp. The products were confirmed by Southern blotting analysis using Haynaldia villosa (L.) Schur. genomic DNA labeled with 32 P as probe. The PCR products were purified and ligated into clone vector-pGEM_T easy vector. Then, the plasmids were transformed into competence E. coli JM109 with cool CaCl 2. It was estimated that there were more than 17 000 white clones in the library. The size of insert fragments distributed from 100-1 500 bp, with average of 600 bp. Using H. villosa genomic DNA as probe, dot blotting results showed that 37% clones displayed strong and medium positive signals, and 63% clones had faint or no signals. It is demonstrated that there were about 37% repeat sequence clones and 67% single/unique sequence clones in the library. Eight H. villosa_specific clones were screened from the library, and two clones pHVMK22 and pHVMK134 were used for RFLP analysis and sequencing. Both of them were H. villosa specific clones. The pHVMK22 was a unique sequence clone, and the pHVMK134 was a repeat sequence clone. When the pHVMK22 was used as a probe for Southern hybridization, all the powdery mildew resistance materials showed a special band of 2 kb, while all the susceptible ones not. The pHVMK22 may be applied to detect the existence of Pm21.
文摘Recent work revealed that, in the genomes of polyploid wheat, there exists a class of low_copy and chromosome_specific sequences that are labile upon polyploid formation. This class of sequences was proposed to play a critical role in the stabilization and establishment of nascent plant polyploids as new species. To further study this issue, five wheat chromosome 7B_specific sequences, isolated from common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) by chromosome microdissection, were characterized. The sequences were studied by genomic Southern hybridizations on a collection of polyploid wheats and their diploid progenitors. Four sequences hybridized to all polyploid species, but at the diploid level to only species closely related to the B_genome of polyploid wheat. This indicates that these sequences originated with the divergence of the diploid species, and was then vertically transmitted to polyploids. One sequence hybridized to all species at both the diploid and polyploid levels, suggesting its elimination after the polyploid wheat formation. The hybridization of this sequence to two synthetic polyploid wheats indicated that sequence elimination is a rapid event and probably related to methylation status of the sequence. Based on the above results, we suggest that selective changes of low_copy sequences occur rapidly after polyploid formation, which may contribute to the differentiation of chromosomes in newly formed allopolyploid wheats.

文摘Some chaotic sequences generated from maps conjugated with tent map can be reconstructed precisely by short sequence prediction,since the problem of finite precision degrades the statistical properties of chaotic maps.This paper discusses the topological conjugation properties of the chaotic maps;analyzes in detail the reconstruction process of the chaotic sequences and the security of the oversampled chaotic map (OSCM) binary sequences.The result demonstrates that OSCM binary sequences can sustain the attack of the short sequence prediction,that is,they cant be reconstructed.Furthermore,all attack strategies aiming at the chaotic systems based on synchronization will fail,meaning that they are secure.
文摘Phylogenetic relationships of Arundinaria and related genera (Pleioblastus, Pseudosasa, Oligostachyum, Bashania, Clavinodum, etc.) were assessed by analyzing the sequences of the nrDNA internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and the cpDNA trnL-F intergenic spacer (IGS). Comparison with trnL-F IGS sequence, the ITS region provided the higher number of parsimony informative characters, and the interspecific variation of the ITS sequence was higher than that of the trnL-F IGS sequence.The tree obtained by combining both sets of data showed that the species sampled in Arundinaria and the related genera were monophyletic and divided into two clades. The relationships and positioning of all the taxa surveryed (including A. oleosa, A. hsienchuensis, A. chino, A. amara, A. yixingensis, A. amabilis, A. fortunei, A. pygmaea, A. gramineus, A. fargesii, A. faberi, A. hupehense, Pseudosasa japonica cv. Tsutsumiana, P. japonica and Brachystachyum densiflorum) were also discussed. The results from the sequences were broadly consistent with morphological characters, appearing all these taxa sampled belong to the genus of Arundinaria. The topologies of the trees generated from individual data and the combined data were similar.

文摘The phylogeny of Ptychostomum was first spacer (ITS) region of the nuclear ribosomal (nr) DNA DNA rps4 sequences. Maximum parsimony, maximum undertaken based on analysis of the internal transcribed and by combining data from nrDNA ITS and chloroplast likelihood, and Bayesian analyses all support the conclusion that the reinstated genus Ptychostomum is not monophyletic. Ptychostomum funkii (Schwagr.) J. R. Spence (≡ Bryum funkii Schwaigr.) is placed within a clade containing the type species of Bryum, B. argenteum Hedw. The remaining members of Ptychostomum investigated in the present study constitute another well-supported clade. The results are congruent with previous molecular analyses. On the basis of phylogenetic evidence, we agree with transferring B. amblyodon Mull. Hal. (≡ B. inclinatum (Brid.) Turton≡ Bryum archangelicum Bruch & Schimp.), Bryum lonchocaulon Mull. Hal., Bryum pallescens Schleich. ex Schwaigr., and Bryum pallens Sw. to Ptychostomum.

文摘Comprehensively considering energy, volume and electronic structure of alloys, the ninth equation was determined as the interaction function of Nb-Mo alloys system in BCC structure on the basis of idea of systematic science of alloys, experimental lattice constants and heats of formation of disordered Nb(1-x)Mox alloys. The structural parameters and properties of Nb and Mo characteristic atoms sequences and corresponding characteristic crystals sequences were determined in Nb-Mo alloys system. The electronic structure and physical properties of disordered Nb(1-x)Mox alloys system were calculated according to concentration of characteristic atoms of disordered alloys. The change trend of physical properties is the same as that of electronic structure.
文摘Modeling non coding background sequences appropriately is important for the detection of regulatory elements from DNA sequences. Based on the chi square statistic test, some explanations about why to choose higher order Markov chain model and how to automatically select the proper order are given in this paper. The chi square test is first run on synthetic data sets to show that it can efficiently find the proper order of Markov chain. Using chi square test, distinct higher order context dependences inherent in ten sets of sequences of yeast S.cerevisiae from other literature have been found. So the Markov chain with higher order would be more suitable for modeling the non coding background sequences than an independent model.
