IDENTIFICATION OF A R2R3-MYB GENE REGULATING ANTHOCYANIN BIOSYNTHESIS AND RELATIONSHIPS BETWEEN ITS VARIATION AND FLOWER COLOR DIFFERENCE IN LOTUS (NELUMBO ADANS.)

The lotus (Nelumbonaceae: Nelumbo Adans.) is a highly desired ornamental plant, comprising only two extant species, the sacred lotus (N.nucifera Gaerten.) with red flowers and the American lotus (N.lutea Willd.) with yellow flowers.Flower color is the most obvious difference of two species.To better understand the mechanism Entertainment of flower

At present, there is no clear design standard for segmental joints of large-diameter shield tunnels under high water pressure.In this paper, a theoretical calculation model for the bending stiffness of segmental joints under high water pressure is proposed.The numerical simulation method is used to investigate the failure and crack formation proces

Immunoglobulin A (IgA) nephropathy (IgAN), the leading cause of primary glomerulonephritis, is characterized by IgA1-containing immunodeposits in the glomeruli.IgAN is a chronic disease, with up to 40% of patients progressing to end-stage renal disease, with no disease-specific treatment.Multiple studies of the origin of the glomerular immunodeposi
