In this paper, a review concerning the evolutionary trends of development from plant developmental anatomy to plant developmental biology, plant comparative anatomy to plant systematic biology and plant ecological anatomy to plant environmental biology during the past 50 years in China is addressed and their potential development and usefulness in the near future were largely discussed.展开更多

Compound 1 has inter-saccharide chain bridging by a dicrotalic acid to form a unique macrocyclic structure.展开更多

In addition, they ascertained the dependence of floristic variability of Alopecuretum pratensis phytocenoses on site conditions determined using： the phytoindication method and the laboratory analyses assessed the soil content of available forms of P and K and of Mg. The greatest areas among the recognised syntaxons are taken up by patches of a typical sub-association developed in fresh sites on soils of lightly acid reaction and moderate nitrogen availability. Floristic variability of Alopecuretum pratensis is characterised by： presence in the phytosociological structure of species characteristic for other syntaxons, floristic abundance and botanical structure, domination of species of the 1 st and 2nd degree of stability, high proportion of synanthropic species, values of the floristic diversity index （H＇）, natural and fodder score values. Geobotanical variability of foxtail meadows confirms difficulties with unequivocal determination of the systematic position of the Alopecuretum pratensis association.展开更多

The results show that the mulberry fiber is cellulose fiber. The crystal structure of mulberry fiber is cellulose I and the crystal cell belongs to the monoelinic system. The mulberry fiber crystal degree is 62.9% and orientation degree is 43.7%, the fineness of mulberry fiber is 2.3- 3.9 dtex, the length of the single fiber is 28 - 47 mm, the breaking strength of mulberry fiber is about 2.93 cN/dtex, and the initial modulus is about 76.82 cN/dtex.展开更多

The measurement is proposed to a formal procedure and measuring the mass of leaves on a tree, tailored to branching plant structures with Simpson＇ s rule and Monte Carlo Methods. L-system is possible to visualize mathematical models of biological structures and processes. The formalism is illustrated using theoretical branching systems, and applied to analyze total leaves number as well as total weight of them.展开更多
