  • Combining Ability for Seed Yield and Other Characters in Rapeseed
    CORE Metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk Provided by Suranaree University of Technology Intellectual Repository COMBINING ABILITY FOR SEED YIELD AND OTHER CHARACTERS IN RAPESEED Zesu Huang1,3, Paisan Laosuwan2,*, Thitiporn Machikowa3 and Zehui Chen1 Received: Aug 7, 2009; Revised: Nov 2, 2009; Accepted: Nov 24, 2009 Abstract Rapeseed (Brassica napus L.) is one of the most important oilseed crops of China. The improvement of yield and oil content is presently being emphasized for this crop. The objective of this study was to evaluate combining ability of rapeseed lines to be used in breeding for yield, oil content and other characters. Nine inbred lines used as males were crossed to five recessive genetic male sterile (RGMS) lines used as females in a factorial manner (NCII design) to produce 45 single crosses. The crosses and their parents were tested at Guiyang and Zunyi, Guizhou, China in 2007-2008. The results showed that mean squares for hybrids were significantly different for all characters. The SS ratios of sum of squares due to GCA to sum of squares of hybrids were 0.70, 0.80, 0.88 and 0.82 for seed yield, oil content, days to flowering and days to maturity, respectively, but SCA effects were significant for all characters except for days to maturity. This indicates that both additive and non-additive gene effects were important, but additive gene effects were more predominant for these characters. Males III188, III224, and Q034 gave large positive GCA effects for seed yield. Their respective values were 317.6, 253.1, and 383.5 kg ha-1.

  • Mercury Accumulation in Vegetable Houttuynia Cordata Thunb. from Two
    www.nature.com/scientificreports OPEN Mercury accumulation in vegetable Houttuynia cordata Thunb. from two diferent geological areas in southwest China and implications for human consumption Qingfeng Wang1,2*, Zhonggen Li1,2, Xinbin Feng2, Ao Wang4, Xinyu Li2,3, Dan Wang1 & Leilei Fan1 Houttuynia cordata Thunb. (HCT) is a common vegetable native to southwest China, and grown for consumption. The results suggested that THg contents in all parts and MeHg in underground parts of HCT in Hg mining areas were much higher than those in non-Hg mining areas. The highest THg and MeHg content of HCT were found in the roots, followed by the other tissues in the sequence: roots > leaves > rhizomes > aboveground stems (THg), and roots > rhizomes > aboveground stems > leaves (MeHg). The average THg bioaccumulation factor (BCF) of HCT root in the Hg mining area and in non-Hg mining areas could reach 1.02 ± 0.71 and 0.99 ± 0.71 respectively, indicating that HCT is a Hg accumulator. And the THg and MeHg contents in all tissues of HCT, including the leaves, were signifcantly correlated with THg and MeHg content in the soil. Additionally, preferred dietary habits of HCT consumption could directly afect the Hg exposure risk. Consuming the aboveground parts (CAP) of HCT potentially poses a high THg exposure risk and consuming the underground parts (CUP) may lead to a relatively high MeHg exposure risk. Only consuming the rhizomes (OCR) of the underground parts could signifcantly reduce the exposure risk of THg and to some extent of MeHg. In summary, HCT should not be cultivated near the Hg contaminated sites, such as Hg tailings, as it is associated with a greater risk of Hg exposure and high root Hg levels, and the roots should be removed before consumption to reduce the Hg risk.

Rosen Received: 17 May 2016; Accepted: 24 August 2016; Published: 29 August 2016 Abstract: A scientific definition of the type of mountain area and an exploration of the spatial correlation between different types of mountain areas and regional land use at the county level are important for reasonable land resource utilization and regional sustainable development. Here, a geographic information system was used to analyze digital elevation model data and to define the extent of mountainous land and types of mountain areas in Guizhou province. Exploratory spatial data analysis was used to study the spatial coupling relation between the type of mountain area and land use degree in Guizhou province at the county level. The results were as follows: (1) Guizhou province has a high proportion of mountainous land, with a ratio of mountainous land to non-mountainous land of 88:11. The county-level administrative units in Guizhou province were exclusively mountainous, consisting of eight semi mountainous counties, nine quasi mountainous counties, 35 apparently mountainous counties, 13 type I completely mountainous counties, and 23 type II completely mountainous counties; (2) The land use degree at the county level in Guizhou province have remarkable spatial differentiation characteristics.
