  • Patent number: 12091482
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a photo-induced cationic polymerized pure vegetable oil-based polymer and a preparation method and use thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: mixing a dry oil, an epoxy vegetable oil and an initiator uniformly, irradiating to initiate a photo-curing reaction, and then placing at ambient temperature, and continuing to a heat-curing reaction so as to obtain a photo-induced cationic polymerized pure vegetable oil-based polymer. In the present invention, vegetable oil resources which are low in price, widespread, and easy to regenerate are used to prepare the pure vegetable oil-based polymers instead of the fossil-derived monomers completely, thereby achieving the efficient use of vegetable oils. In the present invention, an unconventional photo-induced heat frontal polymerization technology is used to prepare the pure vegetable oil-based polymer, thereby achieving a photo-thermal dual curing reaction of a vegetable oil system without heating.

  • Patent number: 11879131
    Abstract: A use of a ZmSBP12 gene in the regulation of drought resistance, plant height, and ear height of Zea mays L. is provided. After the ZmSBP12 gene is over-expressed in Zea mays L., the resulting Zea mays L. mutant plant exhibits increased drought resistance and decreased plant and ear heights. The overexpression of the ZmSBP12 gene leads to increased drought resistance and decreased plant and ear heights, indicating that the ZmSBP12 gene plays a crucial role in the drought resistance and plant type (plant height) of Zea mays L. The expression abundance of the ZmSBP12 gene is increased to improve the drought resistance of Zea mays L. and reduce the plant and ear heights of Zea mays L., which can be used for the assisted breeding of novel drought-resistant and lodging-resistant Zea mays L. varieties and the breeding of excellent inbred lines and hybrids of Zea mays L.
