基于分类知识利用神经网络反演叶面积指数

叶面积指数（LAI,Leaf Area Index）是陆面过程中一个十分重要的输入参数,其遥感反演方法研究一直是国内外遥感应用研究的热点问题。基于统计的遥感反演方法由于缺乏物理基础,其可靠性和普适性差。基于物理的冠层反射模型的LAI反演方法克服了上述弊端,但是由于反演过程是病态的,模型反演结果一般不唯一。神经网络算法的介入可在一定程度上改善这一问题,但是模型反演的病态问题至今仍无法很好地解决。在PROSAIL模型敏感性分析的基础上提出了一种基于影像分类的神经网络反演方法,引进了土壤反射指数用于替代原模型中难以确定的土壤背景反射参数,分别针对不同植被类型建立各自的神经网络,对经过大气纠正后的Landsat ETM＋影像进行了模拟实验并同野外实测LAI数据进行比较。结果表明,对于LAI小于3的植被区该方法的反演精度比较可靠,而LAI大于3的植被区,反演的LAI偏小,原因归结为密植被的冠层反射在LAI大于3以后趋于饱和而无法敏感地表征LAI的变化所导致的。     

Temporal dynamics and spatial variability in the enhancement of canopy leaf area under elevated atmospheric CO2

Increased canopy leaf area (L) may lead to higher forest productivity and alter processes such as species dynamics and ecosystem mass and energy fluxes. Few CO₂ enrichment studies have been conducted in closed canopy forests and none have shown a sustained enhancement of L. We reconstructed 8 years (1996–2003) of L at Duke's Free Air CO₂ Enrichment experiment to determine the effects of elevated atmospheric CO₂ concentration ([CO₂]) on L before and after canopy closure in a pine forest with a hardwood component, focusing on interactions with temporal variation in water availability and spatial variation in nitrogen (N) supply. The dynamics of L were reconstructed using data on leaf litterfall mass and specific leaf area for hardwoods, and needle litterfall mass and specific leaf area combined with needle elongation rates, and fascicle and shoot counts for pines. The dynamics of pine L production and senescence were unaffected by elevated [CO₂], although L senescence for hardwoods was slowed. Elevated [CO₂] enhanced pine L and the total canopy L (combined pine and hardwood species; P<0.050); on average, enhancement following canopy closure was ～16% and 14% respectively. However, variation in pine L and its response to elevated [CO₂] was not random. Each year pine L under ambient and elevated [CO₂] was spatially correlated to the variability in site nitrogen availability (e.g. r²=0.94 and 0.87 in 2001, when L was highest before declining due to droughts and storms), with the [CO₂]‐induced enhancement increasing with N (P=0.061). Incorporating data on N beyond the range of native fertility, achieved through N fertilization, indicated that pine L had reached the site maximum under elevated [CO₂] where native N was highest. Thus closed canopy pine forests may be able to increase leaf area under elevated [CO₂] in moderate fertility sites, but are unable to respond to [CO₂] in both infertile sites (insufficient resources) and sites having high levels of fertility (maximum utilization of resources). The total canopy L, representing the combined L of pine and hardwood species, was constant across the N gradient under both ambient and elevated [CO₂], generating a constant enhancement of canopy L. Thus, in mixed species stands, L of canopy hardwoods which developed on lower fertility sites (～3 g N inputs m^?2 yr^?1) may be sufficiently enhanced under elevated [CO₂] to compensate for the lack of response in pine L, and generate an appreciable response of total canopy L (～14%).

基于TCGA和GEO数据库的胃癌lncRNA筛选与ceRNA网络构建

胃癌（gastric cancer,GC）是我国最常见的恶性肿瘤之一,严重危害人类健康。胃癌发病机制复杂,缺乏特异性预后生物标志物。长链非编码RNA（long non?coding RNA,lncRNA）可作为竞争性内源RNA（competing endogenous RNA,ceRNA）,影响microRNA（miRNA）与mRNA的结合,从而影响胃癌的发生、发展。基于TCGA和GEO数据库的转录组数据,筛选GC中差异表达的lncRNAs,并构建基于6条lncRNAs（HAGLROS、TMEM92?AS1、LINC01745、HOXC?AS3、SEMA3B?AS1、FEZF1?AS1）的lncRNA?miRNA?mRNA网络。网络核心基因的KEGG/GO富集和蛋白质互作分析结果显示,lncRNA可能通过miRNA海绵吸附作用,调控胃癌的发生、发展与转移。AC011352.1、AC087636.1、AC093627.1、GAS1RR与胃癌患者的预后相关性具有统计学意义（P<0.05）,并可能成为胃癌患者潜在的预后生物标志物。

Molecular phylogeny of Camponotus ants in Korea

The molecular phylogeny of 12 species of Camponotus ants in Korea was examined using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) markers as inputs for an analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) and cluster analysis to describe the relationships between species. For comparison, morphometric data (based on 10 morphological characters) were also gathered for phylogenetic analysis. Assessments of similarity between species were made, and the results of these assessments are compared for the molecular and morphological data sets. In the morphometric analysis, the following groups were identified: (i) C. atrox, C. kiusuensis, C. japonicus and C. concavus (93% similarity); (ii) C. sp. 1 (be diverging at 80% similarity); (iii) C. jejuensis, C. sp. 3, C. itoi, C. nawai and C. tokioensis (94.5% similarity); and (iv) C. nipponensis and C. quadrinotatus (94.5% similarity). Formica fusca was 73.5% similar to the 12 Camponotus species studied here. The group comprising C. nawai and C. tokioensis had the highest similarity index (97.36%), followed by the group comprising C. jejuensis and C. sp. 3 (95%), then C. atrox and C. kiusuensis (94.5%), and then C. nipponensis and C. quadrinotatus (93.5%). In the molecular analysis the following groups were identified: (i) C. atrox and C. jejuensis (30% similarity); (ii) C. concavus, C. japonicus and C. itoi (25% similarity); (iii) C. kiusuensis, C. nawai, C. sp. 3, C. nipponensis, C. quadrinotatus and C. sp. 1 (24% similarity); and (iv) C. tokioensis (be diverging at 23% similarity). The most closely related group in the molecular analysis was C. nawai and C. sp. 3 (75% similarity), followed by C. concavus and C. japonicus (50.5% similarity), then C. atrox and C. jejuensis (30%), and then C. quadrinotatus and C. sp. 1. Camponotus tokioensis was the least closely related to other species among the 12 species studied. Although C. jejuensis and C. tokioensis were found to be 93.6% similar on the basis of morphometric data, molecular data indicated only 23% similarity, the lowest similarity index between any two species considered here. Camponotus jejuensis has marked morphological similarities to C. tokioensis, but on the basis of molecular data gathered in the present study, we refute the proposal that they are synonyms or sister species.
