Mesona chinensis is an economically important agricultural crop, primarily cultivated for making grass jelly. It was originally discovered in South China. We examined 18 cultivars, including cultivars from Guangdong, Fujian, and Guangxi, China, Taiwan, and Indonesia, and a hybrid (a cross between cultivars from Indonesia and Guangdong), based on RAPD markers. The genetic similarity coefficient was calculated by NTSYS 2.10 and the clustering analysis was made by UPGMA. PCR amplification with 10 primers produced 163 bands; 94% of the amplified loci were polymorphic. The primers S208, S206, and S253 could completely distinguish all 19 samples by constructing a DNA fingerprint. Cluster analysis divided the 19 cultivars into five groups, with an overall genetic similarity coefficient of 0.68. Correlations were found among regional distributions, parental sources, and RAPD markers, demonstrating the rich genetic diversity of these 19 cultivars of M. chinensis. This study provides useful information for the classification, identification, and breeding of M. chinensis.

D.) (Received 28th Feb 2018; accepted 21st May 2018) Abstract. This study presented the distribution of the largest forest fires in the area of Sanming, Fujian province of China from 2000 to 2009 and focused on the spatial and temporal dynamics of forest fire occurrences. The fire location distribution, occurrence causes, and daily, monthly and annual distribution of fires influenced by weather were examined. The weather data was analyzed using the software FWI Calc. v.10.3.1.106. There were a total of 818 forest fires occurred in the period 2000-2009 that burned 87 million m2 of forests; the fires have been detected during the fieldwork. The time distribution of forest fire occurrence had a regular pattern daily, and most forest fires occurred between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m., accounting for 92.42% of total fires. It was found that drier and warmer weathers provided favorable conditions for forest fire occurrences, and the majority of serious fires were occurred between 2008 and 2009, which was a period with relatively dry and warm weather. Significant relationships between forest fire occurrence and weather were determined in the study. -

Protection and Transmission of Chinese Nanyin by Prof
Protection and Transmission of Chinese Nanyin by Prof. Wang, Yaohua Fujian Normal University, China Intangible cultural heritage is the memory of human historical culture, the root of human culture, the ‘energic origin’ of the spirit of human culture and the footstone for the construction of modern human civilization. Ever since China joined the Convention for the Safeguarding of the Intangible Cultural Heritage in 2004, it has done a lot not only on cognition but also on action to contribute to the protection and transmission of intangible cultural heritage. Please allow me to expatiate these on the case of Chinese nanyin(南音, southern music). I. The precious multi-values of nanyin decide the necessity of protection and transmission for Chinese nanyin. Nanyin, also known as “nanqu” (南曲), “nanyue” (南乐), “nanguan” (南管), “xianguan” (弦管), is one of the oldest music genres with strong local characteristics. As major musical genre, it prevails in the south of Fujian – both in the cities and countryside of Quanzhou, Xiamen, Zhangzhou – and is also quite popular in Taiwan, Hongkong, Macao and the countries of Southeast Asia inhabited by Chinese immigrants from South Fujian. The music of nanyin is also found in various Fujian local operas such as Liyuan Opera (梨园戏), Gaojia Opera (高甲戏), line-leading puppet show (提线木偶戏), Dacheng Opera (打城戏) and the like, forming an essential part of their vocal melodies and instrumental music. As the intangible cultural heritage, nanyin has such values as follows. I.I. Academic value and historical value Nanyin enjoys a reputation as “a living fossil of the ancient music”, as we can trace its relevance to and inheritance of Chinese ancient music in terms of their musical phenomena and features of musical form. -

As the Tulou have not been classified as World Heritage Sites by UNESCO, they lack Conservation and reuse financial support, receive minimal attention and face structural deterioration. The purpose of this study is to Cultural heritage explore a methodological approach to assess the value of non-World Heritage Tulou (NWHT) and provide Evaluation system grounds for the reuse of Tulou accordingly. First, building-type, planar layout and other characteristics of Pinghe Tulou NWHTs in Pinghe are reviewed. Next, an Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) is applied to the value evaluation of Pinghe Tulou. Then, policy recommendations for reuse and redevelopment are put forward. The findings suggest that focusing on the reuse of Tulou alone is not justifiable. Rather, funding, public participation and the con- tinuity of community life are important factors relating to the reuse of NWHTs. 1.

Deciphering the Spatial Structures of City Networks in the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait Through the Lens of Functional and Innovation Networks
sustainability Article Deciphering the Spatial Structures of City Networks in the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait through the Lens of Functional and Innovation Networks Yan Ma * and Feng Xue School of Architecture and Urban-Rural Planning, Fuzhou University, Fuzhou 350108, Fujian, China; [email protected] * Correspondence: [email protected] Received: 17 April 2019; Accepted: 21 May 2019; Published: 24 May 2019 Abstract: Globalization and the spread of information have made city networks more complex. The existing research on city network structures has usually focused on discussions of regional integration. With the development of interconnections among cities, however, the characterization of city network structures on a regional scale is limited in the ability to capture a network’s complexity. To improve this characterization, this study focused on network structures at both regional and local scales. Through the lens of function and innovation, we characterized the city network structure of the Economic Zone of the West Side of the Taiwan Strait through a social network analysis and a Fast Unfolding Community Detection algorithm. We found a significant imbalance in the innovation cooperation among cities in the region. When considering people flow, a multilevel spatial network structure had taken shape. Among cities with strong centrality, Xiamen, Fuzhou, and Whenzhou had a significant spillover effect, which meant the region was depolarizing. Quanzhou and Ganzhou had a significant siphon effect, which was unsustainable. Generally, urbanization in small and midsize cities was common. These findings provide support for government policy making. Keywords: city network; spatial organization; people flows; innovation network 1. -

The Paradigm of Hakka Women in History
DOI: 10.4312/as.2021.9.1.31-64 31 The Paradigm of Hakka Women in History Sabrina ARDIZZONI* Abstract Hakka studies rely strongly on history and historiography. However, despite the fact that in rural Hakka communities women play a central role, in the main historical sources women are almost absent. They do not appear in genealogy books, if not for their being mothers or wives, although they do appear in some legends, as founders of villages or heroines who distinguished themselves in defending the villages in the absence of men. They appear in modern Hakka historiography—Hakka historiography is a very recent discipline, beginning at the end of the 19th century—for their moral value, not only for adhering to Confucian traditional values, but also for their endorsement of specifically Hakka cultural values. In this paper we will analyse the cultural paradigm that allows women to become part of Hakka history. We will show how ethical values are reflected in Hakka historiography through the reading of the earliest Hakka historians as they depict- ed Hakka women. Grounded on these sources, we will see how the narration of women in Hakka history has developed until the present day. In doing so, it is necessary to deal with some relevant historical features in the construc- tion of Hakka group awareness, namely migration, education, and women narratives, as a pivotal foundation of Hakka collective social and individual consciousness.

Reconstructing the Evolutionary History of Chinese Dialects
Reconstructing the Evolutionary History of Chinese Dialects Esra Erdem Institute of Information Systems, Vienna University of Technology, Vienna, Austria [email protected] Feng Wang Department of Chinese Language and Literature, Peking University, Beijing, China [email protected] Evolutionary relations between languages based on their shared characteristics can be represented as a phylogeny --- a tree where the leaves represent the extant languages, the internal vertices represent the ancestral languages, and the edges represent the genetic relations between the languages. On the other hand, languages not only inherit characteristics from their ancestors but also sometimes borrow them from other languages. Such borrowings can be represented by additional non-tree edges, turning a phylogeny into a phylogenetic network. With this motivation, we reconstruct the evolutionary history of languages in two steps: first we compute a plausible phylogeny with a minimal number of incompatible characters, and then we turn this phylogeny into a perfect phylogenetic network, by adding a small number of lateral edges, so that all characters are compatible with the network. For both steps, to formulate the problems and to solve them, we use answer set programming --- a new form of declarative programming. This method has been successfully applied to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Indo-European languages. In the following we summarize its application to reconstruct the evolutionary history of Old Chinese and the following 23 Chinese dialects: Guangzhou, Liancheng, Meixian, Taiwan, Xiamen, Zhangping, Fuzhou, Nanchang, Anyi, Shuangfeng, Changsha, Beijing, Yuci, Taiyuan, Ningxia, Chengdu, Yingshan, Wuhan, Ningbo, Suzhou, Shangai 1, Shangai 2, Wenzhou. We have started with a dataset consisting of 200 lexical characters (the Swadesh wordlist), each with 1--24 states. -

Systematic & Applied Acarology Special Publications (2000) 4, 81-92 81 Checklist of mites from moso bamboo in Fujian, China JIANZHEN LIN1, ZHI-QIANG ZHANG2, YANXUAN ZHANG1, QIAOYUN LIU3& JIE JI1 1Institute of Plant Protection, Fujian Academy of Agricultural Sciences, Fuzhou, 350013 China; e-mail [email protected] 2Landcare Research, Private Bag 92170, Auckland, New Zealand 3Laboratory of Forest Protection, Fujian Forestry Bureau, Fuzhou 350002,China Abstract This paper gives a report of 45 species of mites from the moso bamboo (Phy- llostachys pubescens) in Fujian province, China. They belong to 23 genera in 9 families. Some of the Tetranychidae (e.g. Aponychus copuzae Rimando and Schizotetranychus nanjingensis Ma et Yuan) and Eriophyidae (e.g. Aculus bambusae Kuang), either alone or in mixed populations, cause serious injury to the moso bamboo in Fujian. Key words: Acari, pest, natural enemy, bamboo, Phyllostachys pubescens. Introduction The moso bamboo, Phyllostachys pubescens, is widely distributed in areas south of Qinling mountains and Changjiang (Yangtze River) in China. It is a valuable economic crop and is widely cultivated in Hunan, Jiangxi, Zhejiang and Fujian provinces. Spider mites (Tetranychidae) are often collected on bamboo leaves in China. Wang (1981) recorded Aponychus copuzae Rimando injuring the moso bamboo in Zhejiang, Jiangxi, Taiwan, and Guangdong. Ma et al. (1984) also collected this species in Anhui and Guangxi. In addi- 82 Systematic & Applied Acarology Special Publications (2000) 4 tion, they also recorded Stylophoronychus guangzhouensis (Ma et Yuan 1980; see Zhang et al. 2000b), Schizotetranychus nanjingensis Ma et Yuan, S. bambusae Reck and Tetranychus bambusae Wang et Ma on bamboo. -
Identification of Essential Oils from the Leaves of 11 Species of Eriobotrya
Pak. J. Bot., 42(6): 4379-4386, 2010. IDENTIFICATION OF ESSENTIAL OILS FROM THE LEAVES OF 11 SPECIES OF ERIOBOTRYA YANPING HONG 1,2, SUHUA HUANG1, JINCHENG WU 3,*, SHUNQUAN LIN 2,* 1College of Life Science, Longyan University, Longyan, Fujian 364012, P. R. China 2College of Horticultural Science, South China Agricultural University, Guangzhou 510642, P. R. China 3Department of Environment and Life Science, Putian University, Putian, Fujian 351100, P. R. China Abstract Essential oils are regarded as the major bioactive compounds and exhibit antibacterial, antifungal, anti-viral and antioxidant activities. The contents and components of essential oils present in plant tissues depend largely on germplasm resource. In this study, essential oils in leaves of 11 species of Eriobotrya were extracted with ethyl ether and were then analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry. A total of 66 components were identified and the major components were benzoic acid methyl ester, heptacosane, squalene, neophytadiene and hexacosane. The species ‘Obovata leaf’ exhibited higher contents of squalene and benzoic acid methyl ester compared to other species, suggesting a higher utilization value. The clustering analysis on the basis of the essential oils indicated that the 11 species of Eriobotrya can be classified into 3 groups, i.e. the first group ‘Oak leaf’, ‘Taiwan’, ‘Bengal’, ‘Obovata leaf’, ‘Hengchun’, ‘Guangxi’ and ‘Big flower’ loquats, the second group the common loquat, and ‘Tibet’, ‘Zaozhong 6’ and ‘Daduhe’ loquats, and the third group ‘Fragrant’ loquat. The differences in contents of phytol, squalene, neophytadiene and lup-20(29)-en-28-oic acid 3-hydroxyl-methyl ester among the three groups indicated the oil profiles of the 11 species of Eriobotrya.
