  Trait Expression Differences of Rice DUS Testing Standard Varieties in Shanghai Area 2019, 35 (12):  1-7.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18010038 Abstract + ( 584 )   PDF ( 1222KB )   ( 468 ) To analyze the trait expression differences of standard varieties for the rice (Oryza sativa) DUS testing in Shanghai area, and provide improved and accurate standard varieties for rice variety certification and protection in the plain and hilly areas of the lower reaches of Yangtze River, this study introduced the coefficient of coincidence to the rice DUS testing to analyze the differences between the real trait expressions and the codes in the rice DUS testing guideline from 39 standard varieties in the area based on field experiments from 2015 to 2017, and further optimized the standard varieties of some traits. The results showed that the coefficient of coincidence of 40 traits was 1, accounted for 76.9% of all the 52 traits in the rice DUS testing guideline. The performances of quantitative traits were greatly influenced by environmental conditions. 10 of 12 traits with the coefficient of coincidence less than 1 were quantitative traits. Among the 39 standard varieties of the rice DUS testing guideline, the coefficient of coincidence of 26 standard varieties reached 1, and the performances of their traits were very stable. The coefficient of coincidence of ‘Guangluai 4’ was the lowest, followed by that of ‘ Heuknambyeo’, and the coefficients of coincidence of the other varieties were greater than 0.99. Most varieties could be used as standard varieties for the rice DUS testing in Shanghai area, and further optimization of the standard varieties in some traits were carried out.

  Selecting High Temperature Tolerant Germplasms from Africa Rice 2019, 35 (12):  8-12.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18120035 Abstract + ( 680 )   PDF ( 1218KB )   ( 479 ) To facilitate rice breeding with heat tolerance, we try to screen heat-resistant resources from Africa rice. Using the newly established cascade temperature method, six rice varieties from various regions of Africa were treated with high temperature in flowering period. The heat-tolerant index and integrated heat-tolerant index were calculated by the fertilization rate under different high-temperature treatments, and the integrated heat-tolerant index was selected to judge their heat tolerance. The heat-tolerant index of‘SDWG005’was greater than 0.9 among high-temperature treatments and its’integrated heat-tolerant index was 6.462, showing significant heat tolerance. The heat- tolerant index of‘SDWG001’was greater than 0.5 among hightemperature treatments and its’integrated heat-tolerant index was 4.163, showing strong heat tolerance. The heat-tolerant index of both‘SDBN001’and‘SDSL013’were lower than 0.5 under 37℃ treatment and greater than 0.6 under other treatments. The integrated heat-tolerant index of the two varieties was 3.694 and 3.406, respectively, showing relatively high heat resistance. By screening, an extremely strong heat-resistant variety ‘SDWG005’and two strong heat-resistant varieties‘SDWG001’and‘SDBN001’were obtained. The results suggest that some rice germplasm resources from Africa may have heat-tolerant genes, which can be used for breeding heat tolerant rice in the future.

  NPK Fertilizer Application on Global Wheat Grain Zinc Concentration 2019, 35 (12):  13-17.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18120074 Abstract + ( 692 )   PDF ( 1320KB )   ( 449 ) Improving grain Zn concentration of wheat could supply more Zn and reduce Zn deficiency in human body. To quantify the changes of global grain Zn concentration with time and analyze the relationship between grain Zn concentration and fertilization supply are significant to the sustainable development of agricultural production. The data were collected from Web of Science, CNKI and Wanfang database, which included 84 literatures related to grain Zn concentration from 1980 to 2018. The authors analyzed Zn concentration in grain, NPK application amount, and the relationship between the two to study the effect of NPK application on grain Zn concentration. The results showed that the global grain Zn concentration of wheat significantly decreased from 39.6 mg/kg in 1990s to 28.8 mg/kg at present with a decreasing rate of 26.5%. In wheat production, N fertilizer application increased from 84.1 kg/hm2 in 1990s to 166 kg/hm2, while P application increased by 127%, and K fertilizer increased by 19.8% from 2000s to now. N application increased grain Zn concentration of wheat, while P application significantly decreased grain Zn concentration and K fertilizer had no effect on grain Zn concentration. Therefore, large amount of P fertilizer application may reduce grain Zn concentration in intensive wheat production, and appropriate amount of P could guarantee the high yield and high Zn of wheat.

  Variation of Yield and Agronomic Characters of Wheat with Limited Water Treatment 2019, 35 (12):  18-22.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18010048 Abstract + ( 497 )   PDF ( 1275KB )   ( 443 ) The aim is to provide references for the breeding and cultivation of wheat under limited water in Cangzhou. 10 varieties in Hebei were used as materials, field investigation and indoor test were combined to analyze the effects of irrigation amount on yield, yield composition, heading rate and plant height of different varieties. The results showed that the yields increased with the increasing watering times, and the average yields of the three treatments were significantly different (P<0.05). The yield of 0 watering was the lowest, 4462.18 kg/hm2. The yield of 1 watering was 5668.53 kg/hm2. The yield of 2 watering was the highest, up to 6707.87 kg/hm2, increased by 18.34 % compared with that of 1 watering, and increased by 27.03% compared with that of 0 watering. The number of ears, the number of grain per ear, 1000-grain weight, ears rate and plant height of wheat increased with the increasing of irrigation amount. In Cangzhou, under no watering, the production lost is 80-115 kg.

  The New Wheat Variety‘Shiyou 20’with High Yield and High Quality: Breeding and Application 2019, 35 (12):  23-27.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18090091 Abstract + ( 834 )   PDF ( 1228KB )   ( 733 ) The objective is to breed new wheat variety with high and stable yield, fine quality, strong resistance and wide adaptability. The hybridization test with female parent‘Ji 935-352’and male parent‘Jinan 17’was conducted. The artificial alternate selection was done in different places where soil and production conditions were different. Under the condition of sufficient fertilizer, the wheat were supplied with sufficient water at the early stage to promote the vegetative growth, and then the wheat were grown under drought stress at the later stage for screening high production capacity materials to improve the drought resistance, water saving, stress resistance and adaptability. The selection was focused on the individuals with excellent coordination of production factors. The high- yield lines were identified and screened by cross- regional and multi- point adaptability screening method to select the variety with high and stable yield combining with stress resistance and wide adaptability. At the same time, the quality selection was conducted in the laboratory from F3 generation. A new wheat variety‘Shiyou 20’was bred successfully.‘Shiyou 20’with high yield, high quality, drought resistance, fertilizer tolerance and water saving was authorized by Hebei Provincial Variety Approval Committee in 2009, and then it was authorized by National Variety Approval Committee in 2011.‘Shiyou20’ has rich genetic basis and good traits, thus it can be used as high yield and high quality germplasm.

  Slow-release Fertilizer Amount: Effects on Photosynthesis, Biomass Accumulation and Distribution, and Yield Traits of Summer-sown Millet 2019, 35 (12):  28-33.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18010032 Abstract + ( 408 )   PDF ( 1315KB )   ( 474 ) The effects of slow- release fertilizer amount on photosynthesis, biomass accumulation and distribution, and yield trait are investigated in order to provide references for summer millet cultivation with high productivity.‘Baogu 21’was used as the material in this experiment. At the seedling stage, elongating stage, heading stage, filling stage and mature stage, the conventional assay method was used to analyze photosynthetic rate (Pn), chlorophyll content (Chl), leaf-area index (LAI), dry matter weight of population, dry matter accumulation and transport characteristics of vegetative organs at the late growth stage, the contents of nitrogen phosphorus potassium at mature stage and the accumulation amount of nitrogen phosphorus potassium per unit area, plant characters, yield and harvest indexes. The results showed that among the three treatments covering fertilizer amounts of 0 kg/hm2 (T1), 225 kg/hm2 (T2) and 450 kg/hm2 (T3), Pn and Chl was elevated along with the increase of fertilizer amount at every growth stage. Likewise, LAI and population biomass of plants were also enhanced with the increasing fertilizer application. The biomass of leaves, sheaths, and stems were all increased at spiking and maturity stages along with the increase of fertilizer application, the export biomass amounts increased at the high fertilizer amount. But the differences of transportation efficiencies in vegetative organs were not obvious. At high fertilizer amount, the contents of nitrogen, phosphorus, and potassium in plants were increased, the accumulative amounts of nutrients were significantly elevated, the spike characters were improved, and the yield was increased significantly. The suitable supply amount of slowrelease fertilizer can effectively promote plant growth and development as well as the yield formation capacity, which are closely associated with the increased nutrients absorption, thus to improve photosynthesis capacity of the plants.

  Radiation Intensities Affect Important Agronomic Characters of Soybean M1 Generation 汝玄玄,,霍晴,,,李曙光 and 2019, 35 (12):  40-45.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18110121 Abstract + ( 429 )   PDF ( 1442KB )   ( 321 ) To study the radiation effects of different intensities of 60Co γ- rays on important agronomic characters of soybean and determine the suitable radiation dose, soybean variety‘Huaidou 13’was used as material and radiated by using 200 Gy, 300 Gy and 400 Gy of γ- rays. The results showed that different radiation dosages significantly reduced the field seedling emergence rate and survival rate of M1 generation population. As the dosage increasing, the emergence rate and survival rate decreased. Compared with the control (CK), the variation range of emergence rate and survival rate was 18.07%-44.34% and 0.89%-24.45%, respectively. Meanwhile, radiation delayed the initial flowering stage of soybean from 3 to 5 days and the maximum delay effect showed up when treated with 400 Gy of radiation. By the same token, radiation affected some other important agronomic traits of M1 generation population, such as plant height, main stem number, effective branch number and pod number per plant, which turned out that the stronger of radiation intensity, the greater of difference in phenotype was. M1 generation group was moderate in size, extreme differentiation types had a certain proportion, phenotypic variation was abundant, and probability of obtaining target traits was high when treated with 300 Gy of radiation, which was suitable for the construction of soybean mutant library. The results of the study provide a foundation for constructing various types of soybean mutant libraries and further research on functional genomics.

  The Construction of China’s Spatial Planning System Based on the Perspective of Use Control 2019, 35 (12):  46-53.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18110024 Abstract + ( 664 )   PDF ( 1935KB )   ( 452 ) The construction of spatial planning system is an important measure for implementing the national ecological civilization strategy and an important starting point for implementing the use control system. The research puts forward the idea, overall framework, level and composition, function and content of China’s spatial planning system around the goal of establishing and implementing the use control system, to provide a theoretical basis for the establishment of China’s spatial planning system. Through literature research and comprehensive analysis, this paper analyzes China’s current spatial planning system, the spatial planning system of developed countries, the pilot results of China’s“multiple planning integration”and the ideas and framework of China’s spatial planning system reform around the implementation of the use control system. The research shows that there are many problems in China’s current spatial planning system, but it can be solved by constructing a more scientific spatial planning system. The construction of China’s spatial planning system can draw on the mature practices of spatial planning system of developed countries and the pilot experience gained from China’s“multiple planning integration”. The spatial planning system around the implementation of the use control system is composed of“land space planning + special planning”at four hierarchies of “national- provincial- prefectural- county”. The planning at each hierarchy is based on the implementation of the use control system and corresponds to the authority of the government and its related departments at that hierarchy. The function of“land space planning”is a strategic, programmatic and basic planning for protection and development of all regional land space，and it is the planning for delineating“use zones”.“Special planning”is a departmental planning for implementing the requirements of the use control system and precision management, and a planning for the protection and development of“use zones”. The research adheres to the basic requirements and principles of“clear hierarchy, clear function, up and down convergence” and“macro, meso, micro, long-term, near-term, rigid and flexible”, and constructs a spatial planning system based on the implementation of the use control system, and put forward the construction idea and overall framework, level and composition, function and content of the system, which will provide a theoretical basis for the construction of the domestic spatial planning system and the implementation of the use control system.

  Roof Agricultural Substrates: Proportion and Effects on Growth and Quality of Lettuce 2019, 35 (12):  112-117.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18090039 Abstract + ( 598 )   PDF ( 1332KB )   ( 380 ) To screen light and cheap roof agricultural substrates, peanut shells, mushroom residues, cow dung, earthworm dung and other agricultural wastes were used as raw materials, the physicochemical properties of the seven substrates with different mixing proportions and their effects on the growth and quality of lettuce were studied by roof cultivation experiment. The grey correlation analysis was used to analyze the effects of various substrates. The results showed that the bulk density of mixed substrates was between 0.38 and 0.6 g/cm3, the total porosity of mixed substrates was from 54.77% to 74.17%, and the EC value ranged from 242 to 1150 μS/cm. Peanut shell and mushroom residue could significantly reduce the bulk density and increase the total porosity of substrates, while cow dung and peat had the most significant effect on nutrient content of substrate. Compared with CK, different substrates could promote lettuce growth, the plant height, leaf length, dry and fresh weight of T4[V(peanut shell): V(wormcast): V(vermiculite): V(perlite)= 3:4:2:1] and T5 [V(peanut shell): V(cow dung): V (vermiculite): V(perlite): V(peat) = 2:2:2:2:2] increased significantly. The soluble sugar and soluble solids content in lettuce increased significantly in T5. In general, T5, which has the best treatment effect and is suitable for lettuce cultivation, could be used as an excellent light substrate formula in roof agriculture.

  Purification and Physiological Responses of Epipremnum aureum on Cigarette Smoke 2019, 35 (12):  118-123.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18010020 Abstract + ( 1058 )   PDF ( 1613KB )   ( 618 ) To investigate the purification capacity of indoor ornamental plant Epipremnum aureum on cigarette smoke and its growth and physiological responses, and provide a basis for prevention and control of cigarette smoke pollution, cigarette smoking way of mankind was imitated in this study, two cigarettes were injected into a sealed or interval ventilated glass capsule with length, width and height all of 60 cm, and Epipremnum aureum was put into the capsule. CO and PM2.5 concentrations during 72 h were measured, changes of phenotypes were observed and the physiological indexes in leaves were determined. The results showed that: E. aureum could effectively absorb CO and PM2.5 produced by cigarette smoke and purify the air. Plant growth was affected by cigarette smoke treatments to some degree. Watery plaque spots were appeared in leaves and the whole leaves became yellow with the time prolonging. Levels of reactive oxygen species (including superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide) in leaves were significantly increased, resulting in aggravation of membrane lipid peroxidation and the increase of malondialdehyde content. The plant triggered antioxidant enzymes system to eliminate reactive oxygen species in time; while, as the time went on, the resistance became weakened. Ventilation effectively accelerated air flow and alleviated the cigarette smoke toxicity to plants. Therefore, we suggest E. aureum should be put in smoking area and ventilating sometimes, thus it will decrease the risk caused by cigarette smoke pollution.

  Fine Mapping of Anther Color Gene Siac1 in Foxtail Millet 郭二虎 2019, 35 (12):  130-136.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18110025 Abstract + ( 515 )   PDF ( 1758KB )   ( 579 ) To reveal the genetic basis of anther color in foxtail millet at molecular level, an F2 segregating population derived from a crossing between‘E1005’(female parent) and‘Pinzi 39’(male parent) was used as mapping population. With bulked segregation analysis (BSA) and recessive-class analysis (RCA), the Siac1 related to anther color was finely mapped. Genetic analysis showed that the segregation ratio of yellow anther plants to white anther plants was consistent with the Mendelian segregation of 3:1 in the F2 generation, which suggested that the white anther color trait was controlled by a pair of recessive nuclear genes. The Siac1 was preliminary mapped onto an interval of about 282 kb between markers GSA07025 and GSA07037 on chromosome VI by SSR markers and SV markers. Furthermore, fine mapping of Siac1 was conducted using newly developed InDel markers based on the sequence differences between the two parents, and the results indicated that the Siac1 was narrowed down onto a genomic region of around 94.7 kb between markers MRI579 and MRI583. Bioinformatics analysis showed that there were 10 Open Reading Frames (ORFs), and Seita.6G227100, eita.6G227200, Seita.6G227300 and Seita.6G227900 could be speculated to be four candidates for Siac1. This research lays a foundation for the cloning of Siac1 and the analysis of developmental mechanism of anther color.

The results indicated that: 7109 AMF published articles (2008-2017) were identified, the quantities of literature output was increasing year by year, and 2016 was the highest; the quantities of literatures of the United States, China, Germany, India and Spain ranked the top 5 in the world, and the United States had the most literatures (1262); almost all the literatures were English with the quantities of 6914; the quantities of AMF articles published by the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Spanish Academy of Sciences, the Free University of Berlin, the University of Western Australia and the University of Turin ranked the top 5; the main core journals that published the AMF research were Mycorrhiza, Soil Biology Biochemistry, Plant And Soil, New Phytologist, Applied Soil Ecology; the main subjects were agronomy, botany, ecological environment science, microbiology and mycology and so on. In general, the United States, China and Germany are in dominant position in the field of AMF research.

  Dynamic Analysis of Flavonoids in Leaves of Acanthopanax senticosus in Different Harvest Periods 2019, 35 (12):  151-156.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb18100060 Abstract + ( 491 )   PDF ( 1382KB )   ( 393 ) The purpose of this experiment is to study the change rule of flavonoids contents in leaves of Acanthopanax senticosus in different harvest periods, and to develop and utilize Acanthopanax senticosus leaves. Ultraviolet spectrophotometry and UPLC-Q/TOF-MS were used to analyze the total flavonoids contents and the composition of flavonoids in leaves of Acanthopanax senticosus in different harvest periods, and the trend of flavonoids compounds was studied. The content of the total flavonoids in Acanthopanax senticosus leaves was higher at the beginning of May, mid-August and late September respectively, but decreased during the growing season from May to August. 11 flavonoids compounds with obvious increasing trend and 11 flavonoids compounds with obvious decreasing trend were analyzed. And the results showed that the changing trends of flavonoids contents in leaves of Acanthopanax senticosus in different harvest periods were consistent by the two methods.

  Investigation of White Spot Syndrome Virus in Different Procambarus clarkii Populations in Hubei 2019, 35 (12):  157-164.  DOI: 10.11924/j.issn.1000-6850.casb17120043 Abstract + ( 465 )   PDF ( 1509KB )   ( 312 ) To obtain the white spot syndrome virus (WSSV) carrying situation in Procambarus clarkii, PCR detection on WSSV was conducted on 741 samples of Procambarus clarkii from 7 aquaculture areas in Hubei from May 2016 to July 2017. 49 positive PCR products were sequenced and analyzed. The results showed that over 65% of the samples carried WSSV from areas of Qianjiang City, Jianli County and Xindi in Honghu City, and about 40% of the samples carried WSSV from areas of Ezhou City, Suizhou City and Luoshan Town in Honghu City. The sequencing results indicated that A/T base mutation was found in the conserved region of WSSV of some samples. The phylogenetic tree analysis displayed that there was a farther genetic relationship between the WSSV samples with A/T base mutation and 17 WSSV subspecies in GenBank. However, a closer genetic relationship was found between the WSSV samples without A/T base mutation and the strains from Australia (MF161441) and Bangladesh (KJ719075). This study could provide a reference for the prevention and control of WSSV in Procambarus clarkii.
