In this paper,vanadium nitride(VN) nanofibers with mesoporous structure have been fabricated by a facile electrospinning method. Their crystal structures and morphology features were characterized by X-ray diffraction,scanning electron microscopy,and transmission electron microscopy. The mesoporous structure of VN nanofibers,which can provide short electrolyte diffusion routes and conducting electron transport pathways,is beneficial to their performance as a supercapacitor electrode. Under a stable electrochemical window of 1.0 V,VN nanofibers possess an excellent mass specific capacitance of 110.8 F/g at a scan rate of 5 mV/s. Moreover,the VN nanofibers were further assembled into symmetric all-solid-state SCs,achieving a high energy density of 0.89 mW·h/cm^3 and a high power density of 0.016 W/cm^3 over an operating potential range from 0 to 1.0 V. These results demonstrate that VN nanofibers could be potentially used for energy storage devices.展开更多

Isolation of these QTLs will greatly benefit the agricultural industry but it is a challenging task. This study explored an integrated strategy by combining microarray with QTL-mapping in order to identify cold-tolerant QTLs from a cold-tolerant variety ILl12 at early-seedling stage. All the early seedlings of IL112 survived normally for 9 d at 4-5℃, while Guichao2 （GC2）, an indica cultivar, died after 4 d under the same conditions. Using the F2-3 population derived from the progeny of GC2 and ILl12, we identified seven QTLs for cold tolerance. Furthermore, we performed Affymetrix rice whole-genome array hybridization and obtained the expression profiles of ILl12 and GC2 under both low-temperature and normal conditions. Four genes were selected as cold QTL-related candidates, based on microarray data mining and QTL-mapping. One candidate gene, LOC_Os07g22494, was shown to be highly associated with cold tolerance in a number of rice varieties and in the F2-3 population, and its overexpression transgenic rice plants displayed strong tolerance to low temperature at early-seedling stage. The results indicated that overexpression of this gene （LOC_Os07g22494） could increase cold tolerance in rice seedlings. Therefore, this study provides a promising strategy for identifying candidate genes in defined QTL regions.展开更多

This study used chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing （ChlP-Seq）, to investigate the genome-wide distribution of four histone modifications： di and trimethylation of H3K4 （H3K4me2 and H3K4me3） and acylation of H3K9 and H3K27 （H3K9ac and H3K27ac） in Oryza sativa L. japonica. By analyz- ing published DNase-Seq data, this study explored DNase-Hypersensitive （DH） sites along the rice genome. The histone marks appeared mainly in generic regions and were enriched around the transcription start sites （TSSs） of genes. This analysis demonstrated that the four histone modifications and the DH sites were all associated with active transcription. Furthermore, the four histone modifications were highly concurrent with transcript regions-a promising feature that was used to predict missing genes in the rice gene annotation. The predictions were further validated by experimentally confirming the transcription of two predicted missing genes. Moreover, a sequence motif analysis was constructed in order to identify the DH sites and many putative transcription factor binding sites.展开更多

However, the functions of maize genes remain largely unknown. High-quality genome- wide transcriptome datasets provide important biological knowledge which has been widely and suc- cessfully used in plants not only by measuring gene expression levels but also by enabling co-expression analysis for predicting gene functions and modules related to agronomic traits. Recently, thousands of maize transcriptomic data are available across different inbred lines, development stages, tissues, and treatments, or even across different tissue sections and cell lines. Here, we integrated 701 transcriptomic and 108 epigenomic data and studied the different conditional networks with multi-dimensional omics levels. We constructed a searchable, integrative, one-stop online platform, the maize conditional co- expression network （MCENet） platform. MCENet provides 10 global/conditional co-expression net- works, 5 network accessional analysis toolkits （i.e., Network Search, Network Remodel, Module Finder, Network Comparison, and Dynamic Expression View） and multiple network functional support toolkits （e.g., motif and module enrichment analysis）. We hope that our database might help plant research communities to identify maize functional genes or modules that regulate important agronomic traits.展开更多

文摘Dielectric capacitors are receiving increasing attention due to the high-power density and fast charge-discharge speed.However,defects are inevitably induced during the preparation process and then weaken the breakdown strength,thereby limiting their energy density.The phenomenon gives rise to self-healing technology.The discovery of sol-gel-derived aluminum oxide with electrolysis and dielectric dual-characteristic provides a novel,simple and cost-effective self-healing method to heal defects and enhance energy density.In this paper,we systematically reviewed the current self-healing technologies and the important progress of electrolysis and dielectric co-existence dielectrics.Finally,we outlook the electrolysis and dielectric co-existence dielectrics and potential challenge.

文摘Many important agronomic traits, including cold stress resistance, are complex and controlled by quantitative trait loci （QTLs）. Isolation of these QTLs will greatly benefit the agricultural industry but it is a challenging task. This study explored an integrated strategy by combining microarray with QTL-mapping in order to identify cold-tolerant QTLs from a cold-tolerant variety ILl12 at early-seedling stage. All the early seedlings of IL112 survived normally for 9 d at 4-5℃, while Guichao2 （GC2）, an indica cultivar, died after 4 d under the same conditions. Using the F2-3 population derived from the progeny of GC2 and ILl12, we identified seven QTLs for cold tolerance. Furthermore, we performed Affymetrix rice whole-genome array hybridization and obtained the expression profiles of ILl12 and GC2 under both low-temperature and normal conditions. Four genes were selected as cold QTL-related candidates, based on microarray data mining and QTL-mapping. One candidate gene, LOC_Os07g22494, was shown to be highly associated with cold tolerance in a number of rice varieties and in the F2-3 population, and its overexpression transgenic rice plants displayed strong tolerance to low temperature at early-seedling stage. The results indicated that overexpression of this gene （LOC_Os07g22494） could increase cold tolerance in rice seedlings. Therefore, this study provides a promising strategy for identifying candidate genes in defined QTL regions.

文摘While previous studies have shown that histone modifications could influence plant growth and devel- opment by regulating gene transcription, knowledge about the relationships between these modifications and gene expression is still limited. This study used chromatin immunoprecipitation followed by high-throughput sequencing （ChlP-Seq）, to investigate the genome-wide distribution of four histone modifications： di and trimethylation of H3K4 （H3K4me2 and H3K4me3） and acylation of H3K9 and H3K27 （H3K9ac and H3K27ac） in Oryza sativa L. japonica. By analyz- ing published DNase-Seq data, this study explored DNase-Hypersensitive （DH） sites along the rice genome. The histone marks appeared mainly in generic regions and were enriched around the transcription start sites （TSSs） of genes. This analysis demonstrated that the four histone modifications and the DH sites were all associated with active transcription. Furthermore, the four histone modifications were highly concurrent with transcript regions-a promising feature that was used to predict missing genes in the rice gene annotation. The predictions were further validated by experimentally confirming the transcription of two predicted missing genes. Moreover, a sequence motif analysis was constructed in order to identify the DH sites and many putative transcription factor binding sites.

文摘Lonicera japonica Thunb.,a traditional Chinese herb,has been used for treating human diseases for thousands of years.Recently,the genome of L.japonica has been decoded,providing valuable information for research into gene function.However,no comprehensive database for gene functional analysis and mining is available for L.japonica.We therefore constructed LjaFGD(www.gzybioinformatics.cn/LjaFGD and bioinformatics.cau.edu.cn/LjaFGD),a database for analyzing and comparing gene function in L.japonica.We constructed a gene co-expression network based on 77 RNA-seq samples,and then annotated genes of L.japonica by alignment against protein sequences from public databases.We also introduced several tools for gene functional analysis,including Blast,motif analysis,gene set enrichment analysis,heatmap analysis,and JBrowse.Our co-expression network revealed that MYB and WRKY transcription factor family genes were co-expressed with genes encoding key enzymes in the biosynthesis of chlorogenic acid and luteolin in L.japonica.We used flavonol synthase 1(LjFLS1)as an example to show the reliability and applicability of our database.LjaFGD and its various associated tools will provide researchers with an accessible platform for retrieving functional information on L.japonica genes to further biological discovery.

文摘Maize （Zea mays） is the most widely grown grain crop in the world, playing important roles in agriculture and industry. However, the functions of maize genes remain largely unknown. High-quality genome- wide transcriptome datasets provide important biological knowledge which has been widely and suc- cessfully used in plants not only by measuring gene expression levels but also by enabling co-expression analysis for predicting gene functions and modules related to agronomic traits. Recently, thousands of maize transcriptomic data are available across different inbred lines, development stages, tissues, and treatments, or even across different tissue sections and cell lines. Here, we integrated 701 transcriptomic and 108 epigenomic data and studied the different conditional networks with multi-dimensional omics levels. We constructed a searchable, integrative, one-stop online platform, the maize conditional co- expression network （MCENet） platform. MCENet provides 10 global/conditional co-expression net- works, 5 network accessional analysis toolkits （i.e., Network Search, Network Remodel, Module Finder, Network Comparison, and Dynamic Expression View） and multiple network functional support toolkits （e.g., motif and module enrichment analysis）. We hope that our database might help plant research communities to identify maize functional genes or modules that regulate important agronomic traits.

文摘Environmentally friendly lead-free ceramics capacitors,with outstanding power density,rapid charging/discharging rate,and superior stability,have been receiving increasing attention of late for their ability to meet the critical requirements of pulsed power devices in low-consumption systems.However,the relatively low energy storage capability must be urgently overcome.Herein,this work reports on leadfree SrTi_(0.875)Nb_(0.1)O_(3)(STN)replacement of(Bi_(0.47)La_(0.03)Na_(0.5))_(0.94)Ba_(0.06)TiO_(3)(BLNBT)ferroelectric ceramics with excellent energy storage performance.Improving relaxor behaviour and breakdown strength(Eb),decreasing grain size,and mitigating large polarization difference are conductive to the enhancement of comprehensive energy storage performances.The phase-field simulation methods are further analysized evolution process of electrical tree in the experimental breakdown.In particular,the 0.70BLNBT-0.30STN ceramic exhibit a large discharged energy density of 4.2 J/cm^(3) with an efficiency of 89.3%at room temperature under electric field of 380 kV/cm.Additionally,for practical applications,the BLNBT-based ceramics achieve a high power density(~62.3 MW/cm^(3))and fast discharged time(~148.8 ns)over broad temperature range(20-200℃).Therefore,this work can provide a simple and effective guideline paradigm for acquiring high-performance dielectric materials in low-consumption systems operating in a wide range of temperatures and long-term operations.

文摘We report on the production of an ultracold mixture of 2.8×10^(4)^(23)Na^(40)K molecules and 3.3×10^(5)^(40)K atoms at a temperature of about 250 n K.Compared with previous studies,the number of atoms and molecules improved by a factor of about 2,and the temperature reduced by a factor of about 2.These improvements occur mainly because of the use of a crossed large-volume horizontal dipole trap to load the atoms from a cloverleaf-type magnetic trap,and a large-volume three-beam dipole trap to perform optical evaporative cooling.Besides achieving the mode-matching loading,this method avoids evaporative cooling in a decompressed cloverleaf magnetic trap,which is sensitive to magnetic field fluctuations.We characterize an atom-molecule Feshbach resonance using the ultracold atom-molecule mixture.The enhancement of particle number and temperature significantly improves the signal-to-noise ratio,and enables us to refine the location and width of the Feshbach resonance.

文摘Flexible quantum dot light-emitting diodes(QLEDs)show great promise for the next generation of flexible,wearable,and artificial intelligence display applications.However,the performance of flexible QLEDs still lags behind that of rigid substrate devices,hindering their commercialization for display applications.Here we report the superior performance of flexible QLEDs based on efficient red ZnCdSe/ZnS/ZnSe QDs(A-QDs)with antitype-I nanostructures.We reveal that using ZnS as an intermediate shell can effectively confine the exciton wavefunction to the inner core,reducing the surface sensitivity of the QDs and maintaining its excellent emission properties.These flexible QLEDs exhibit a peak external quantum efficiency of 23.0%and a long lifetime of 63,050 h,respectively.The anti-type-I nanostructure of A-QDs in the device simultaneously suppresses defectinduced nonradiative recombination and balances carrier injection,achieving the most excellent performance of flexible QLEDs ever reported.This study provides new insights into achieving superior performance in flexible QD-based electroluminescent devices.
