The transport properties and differential conductance of the heterostructures constructed by (5,5) single wall carbon nanotube (SWCNT) and (5,5) single wall boron nitride nanotube (SWBNNT) are investigated using density functional theory in combination with non-equilibrium Green’s functions. We find that the transmission conductance of (5,5) BN/C nanotube heterostructure is not only continually depressed as the BNNT region increases but also the drop of the conductance is uniform in the energy window (?1.43 eV, 1 eV), which leads to linear I–V dependence for the systems when the bias is within this energy range. Moreover, the differential conductance linearly decreases when n?≤?3 but exponentially decreases when n?≥?3 for (5,5)(BN) n /C heterostructure. Such tunable differential conductance of (5,5) BN/C nanotube heterostructure mainly derives from the blockage of the transport channels induced by the semiconductive BN segment. Figure

The recessive mutant allele of the opaque2 gene (o2) alters the endosperm protein pattern and increases the kernel lysine content of maize (Zea mays L.). In this study, sequencing results showed that the o2 mutant was successfully introgressed into 12 elite normal maize inbred lines by marker assisted selection (MAS). The average genetic similarity between these normal inbred lines and their o2 near-isogenic lines (NILs) was more than 95%. Kernel lysine content increased significantly in most of o2 NILs lines relative to normal elite inbreds, but remained unchanged in the genetic backgrounds Dan598o2 and Liao2345o2. Moreover, the kernel characteristics of these two o2 NILs did not differ from the other inbred lines. The results of lysine content analysis in the F1 hybrids between Liao2345o2 and Dan598o2 and other o2 NILs demonstrated that gene(s) other than opaque2 may control kernel lysine content in these two o2 NILs. The results of zein analysis showed that 22-kD α-zein synthesis was reduced or absent, and the 19-kD α-zein synthesis was greatly reduced compared with the recurrent parents in most o2 NILs except for Dan598o2 and Liao2345o2. Our results indicate that gene(s) other than opaque2 may play more important roles in zein synthesis and kernel lysine content in some maize genetic backgrounds. 相似文献

This study analyzes population structure and linkage disequilibrium (LD) among 187 commonly used Chinese maize inbred lines,
representing the genetic diversity among public, commercial and historically important lines for corn breeding. Seventy SSR
loci, evenly distributed over 10 chromosomes, were assayed for polymorphism. The identified 290 alleles served to estimate
population structure and analyze the genome-wide LD. The population of lines was highly structured, showing 6 subpopulations:
BSSS (American BSSS including Reid), PA (group A germplasm derived from modern U.S. hybrids in China), PB (group B germplasm
derived from modern U.S. hybrid in China), Lan (Lancaster Surecrop), LRC (derivative lines from Lvda Reb Cob, a Chinese landrace)
and SPT (derivative lines from Si-ping-tou, a Chinese landrace). Forty lines, which formerly had an unknown and/or miscellaneous
origin and pedigree record, were assigned to the appropriate group. Relationship estimates based on SSR marker data were quantified
in a Q matrix, and this information will inform breeder’s decisions regarding crosses. Extensive inter- and intra-chromosomal
LD was detected between 70 microsatellite loci for the investigated maize lines (2109 loci pairs in LD with D′ > 0.1 and 93 out of them at P < 0.01).This suggests that rapidly evolving microsatellites may track recent population structure. Interlocus LD decay among
the diverse maize germplasm indicated that association studies in QTLs and/or candidate genes might avoid nonfunctional and
spurious associations since most of the LD blocks were broken between diverse germplasm. The defined population structure
and the LD analysis present the basis for future association mapping.

Plants with tolerance to low-phosphorus (P) can grow better under Iow-P conditions, and understanding of genetic mechanisms of Iow-P tolerance can not only facilitate identifying relevant genes but also help to develop Iow-P tolerant cultivars. QTL meta-analysis was conducted after a comprehensive review of the reports on O, TL mapping for Iow-P tolerance-related traits in maize. Meta-analysis pro- duced 23 consensus QTL (cQTL), 17 of which located in similar chromosome regions to those previously reported to influence root traits. Meanwhile, candidate gene mining yielded 215 genes, 22 of which located in the cQTL regions. These 22 genes are homologous to 14 functionally characterized genes that were found to participate in plant Iow-P tolerance, including genes encoding miR399s, Pi transporters and purple acid phosphatases. Four cQTL loci (cQTL2-L cQTLS-3, cQTL6-2, and cQTL10-2) may play important roles for low-P tolerance because each contains more original QTL and has better consistency across previous reports. 相似文献

正Dear Editor,Genome editing, especially the newly developed CRISPR technology, is now widely implemented for diverse medical and agricultural applications (Puchta, 2018). However, for genome editing, the DNA cassettes encoding the editing components are usually assembled and delivered into the cells of organisms (Cong et al., 2013). 相似文献

Drought often delays developmental events so that plant height and above-ground biomass are reduced, resulting in yield loss due to inadequate photosynthate. In this study, plant height and biomass measured by the Normalized Difference Vegetation Index (NDVI) were used as criteria for drought tolerance. A total of 305 lines representing temperate, tropical and subtropical maize germplasm were genotyped using two single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) chips each containing 1536 markers, from which 2052 informative SNPs and 386 haplotypes each constructed with two or more SNPs were used for linkage disequilibrium (LD) or association mapping. Single SNP- and haplotype-based LD mapping identified two significant SNPs and three haplotype loci [a total of four quantitative trait loci (QTL)] for plant height under well-watered and water-stressed conditions. For biomass, 32 SNPs and 12 haplotype loci (30 QTL) were identified using NDVIs measured at seven stages under the two water regimes. Some significant SNP and haplotype loci for NDVI were shared by different stages. Comparing significant loci identified by single SNP- and haplotype-based LD mapping, we found that six out of the 14 chromosomal regions defined by haplotype loci each included at least one significant SNP for the same trait. Significant SNP haplotype loci explained much higher phenotypic variation than individual SNPs. Moreover, we found that two significant SNPs (two QTL) and one haplotype locus were shared by plant height and NDVI. The results indicate the power of comparative LD mapping using single SNPs and SNP haplotypes with QTL shared by plant height and biomass as secondary traits for drought tolerance in maize. 相似文献

Eukaryotic Argonaute proteins play primary roles in miRNA and siRNA pathways that are essential for numerous developmental and biological processes. However, the functional roles of the four ZmAGO1 genes have not yet been characterized in maize (Zea mays L.). In the present study, ZmAGO1a was identified from four putative ZmAGO1 genes for further characterization. Complementation of the Arabidopsis ago1‐27 mutant with ZmAGO1a indicated that constitutive overexpression of ZmAGO1a could restore the smaller rosette, serrated leaves, later flowering and maturation, lower seed set, and darker green leaves at late stages of the mutant to the wild‐type phenotype. The expression profiles of ZmAGO1a under five different abiotic stresses indicated that ZmAGO1a shares expression patterns similar to those of Argonaute genes in rice, Arabidopsis, and wheat. Further, variation in ZmAGO1a alleles among diverse maize germplasm that resulted in several amino acid changes revealed genetic diversity at this locus. The present data suggest that ZmAGO1a might be an important AGO1 ortholog in maize. The results presented provide further insight into the function of ZmAGO1a. 相似文献

Maize rough dwarf disease (MRDD, a viral disease) results in significant grain yield losses, while genetic basis of which is largely unknown. Based on comparative genomics, eukaryotic translation initiation factor 4E (eIF4E) was considered as a candidate gene for MRDD resistance, validation of which will help to understand the possible genetic mechanism of this disease. ZmeIF4E (orthologs of eIF4E gene in maize) encodes a protein of 218 amino acids, harboring five exons and no variation in the cDNA sequence is identified between the resistant inbred line, X178 and susceptible one, Ye478. ZmeIF4E expression was different in the two lines plants treated with three plant hormones, ethylene, salicylic acid, and jasmonates at V3 developmental stage, suggesting that ZmeIF4E is more likely to be involved in the regulation of defense gene expression and induction of local and systemic resistance. Moreover, four cis-acting elements related to plant defense responses, including DOFCOREZM, EECCRCAH1, GT1GAMSCAM4, and GT1CONSENSUS were detected in ZmeIF4E promoter for harboring sequence variation in the two lines. Association analysis with 163 inbred lines revealed that one SNP in EECCRCAH1 is significantly associated with CSI of MRDD in two environments, which explained 3.33 and 9.04 % of phenotypic variation, respectively. Meanwhile, one SNP in GT-1 motif was found to affect MRDD resistance only in one of the two environments, which explained 5.17 % of phenotypic variation. Collectively, regulatory motifs respectively harboring the two significant SNPs in ZmeIF4E promoter could be involved in the defense process of maize after viral infection. These results contribute to understand maize defense mechanisms against maize rough dwarf virus. 相似文献
