Rice stripe disease is only caused by rice stripe tenuivirus (RSV), while rice black-streaked dwarf disease can be caused by rice black-streaked dwarf fijivirus (RBSDV) and/or southern rice black-streaked dwarf fijivirus (SRBSDV). Here we review the characterization of these viruses, methods for their detection, and extensive surveys showing their occurrence and spread in the province. Key words: viral diseases; rice stripe tenuivirus; rice black-streaked dwarf fijivirus; southern rice black- streaked dwarf fijivirus; surveys Zhejiang Province, located in eastern China, is known caused more than 50% losses in rice production in as a fertile land of fish and rice, and has a long history some fields (Kuribayashi, 1931; Amano, 1933). It also of rice cultivation going back as many as 7 000 years. occurred in rice-growing areas of Korea and the Rice accounts for more than 80% of the total production former Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) of grain food crops in the province. However, many resulting in significant yield loss in epidemic years viral or virus-like diseases, including rice black- (Hibino, 1996). Diseased rice plants often display streaked dwarf, rice dwarf, rice gall dwarf, rice grassy chlorotic stripes, chlorosis, moderate stunting and loss stunt, rice ragged stunt (Lin et al, 1984; Shen et al, of vigor. In China, rice stripe disease occurred for the 1989), rice stripe (Zhang et al, 2007a), rice transitory first time in the Yangtze River Delta, eastern China, in yellowing (or rice yellow stunt) (Wu et al, 1980), and the early 1960s (Zhu et al, 1964), then spread to rice tungro diseases (Zhou et al, 1992), have posed eastern and southern China. Eventually, the epidemic serious threats to rice cultivation. These rice virus affected about 2 660 000 hm2 of rice fields in over 20 diseases emerge quickly, spread rapidly, and can be provinces, with a disease incidence of 10% to 20% in very destructive. They are also difficult to be cured general and 50% to 80% in serious cases, and resulted once they have occurred. During the past century, the in great loss of rice yield (Lin et al, 1990; Zhang et al, different virus diseases have emerged and disappeared 2007a). In Zhejiang Province, where the first outbreak in succession. Outbreaks of some diseases, especially had occurred and the disease had been a major rice stripe and black-streaked dwarf, have caused constraint on rice production, the disease suddenly destructive losses more than once in Zhejiang Province, and completely disappeared for a decade in the 1990s.

TERMINAL FLOWER1 (TFL1) homologous genes play major roles in maintaining vegetative growth and inflorescence meristem characteristics in various plant species; however, to date, the function of the bamboo TFL1 homologous gene has not been described. In this study, a TFL1 homologous gene was isolated from Bambusa oldhamii and designated as BoTFL1-like. Phylogenetic analysis of TFL1 homologous genes revealed that BoTFL1-like shared more than 90% identity with the TFL1 genes of other Gramineae. RT-PCR analysis showed that the expression level of BoTFL1-like in floral buds was almost 3.5 times higher than in vegetative buds. In 35S::BoTFL1- like transgenic Arabidopsis thaliana plants, the time of flowering was significantly delayed by 5 to 9 days, and development of floral buds Genetics and Molecular Research 14 (3): 9306-9317 (2015) ©FUNPEC-RP www.funpecrp.com.br BoTFL1-like gene in bamboo flowering 9307 and sepals was severely affected compared to wild type Arabidopsis plants.

  • A Study on the Problems and Countermeasures of the Quality Training of the Employees in the Institutions of Supporting the Disabled in Zhejiang Province
    2020 International Conference on Economics, Education and Social Research (ICEESR 2020) A Study on the Problems and Countermeasures of the Quality Training of the Employees in the Institutions of Supporting the Disabled in Zhejiang Province Lu Yang Department of Special Education and Rehabilitation, Zhejiang Special Education Career Academy, Hangzhou, Zhejiang, China Keywords: Foster care institutions; Quality training; Countermeasure research Abstract: Based on the investigation of the current situation of the quality of the employees in the foster care institutions for the disabled in Zhejiang Province, this paper summarizes the problems existing in the quality training of the employees at present, analyzes the reasons for the problems such as the number of the employees in the foster care institutions is small, the degree of specialization is low, and the lack of special training received, and puts forward the corresponding solutions. Finally, it comes to the conclusion that the management service of the foster care institutions should be improved in order to improve the overall quality of the employees in the care institutions and promote the healthy development of the care for the disabled, we should improve the service level and the care service system, improve the treatment in many aspects, provide diversified training, and make good use of the "one million enrollment expansion" and other methods. 1. Introduction The concept of care for the disabled was first proposed by the China Disabled Persons' Federation at the National Conference on care for the disabled held in Guangzhou in 2007. At this meeting, the disabled people’s Federation of China proposed for the first time that local disabled people’s federations should organize the establishment of disabled people’s care service institutions, mainly for the mentally handicapped and the severely handicapped to provide centralized care services and necessary employment services [1].

Using first-hand, village-level data from Zhejiang—an economically developed province in China—we investigated the patterns and influencing factors of population migration between rural and urban areas. We conceptualized three types of migration in rural areas: rural out-migration, rural in-migration, and rural return-migration. First-hand data were collected from 347 villages. The results show that although rural out-migration remains the dominant form of migration, rural in- migration and return-migration are also common, and the latter two are positively correlated. Further, we found evidence to support the conclusion that rural economic, social, and spatial development encourages rural in-migration and return-migration but does not have a significant impact on rural out-migration. Therefore, it is foreseeable that rural in-migration and return-migration will become increasingly common in China. Citation: Tong, W.; Lo, K.

From this perspective, China needs to shift from the extensive development mode to the sustainable development mode. Science and technology resources rational allocation is one of the key issues in sustainable development. Based on the counties (districts) data of Zhejiang Province in China, this paper portrays the spatial variation of regional sustainable development level of this area. This paper finds that counties tend to cluster in groups with the same sustainable development level, and this agglomeration trend has been enforced during the past several years.
