  • Patent number: 11641818
    Abstract: The present invention provides use of a photoperiod-sensitive genic male sterility mutant of cotton in crossbreeding or hybrid seed production. The fertility of the photoperiod-sensitive genic male sterility mutant of cotton is influenced by the photoperiod. The photoperiod characteristic of the photoperiod-sensitive genic male sterility mutant of cotton is that, the photoperiod-sensitive genic male sterility mutant of cotton shows normal fertility when the illumination time is shorter than 11.5 h and shows genic male sterility when the illumination time is longer than 12 h; the photoperiod-sensitive genic male sterility mutant of cotton is in a fertility change period when the illumination time is in a range of 11.5-12 h and has less pollen. The photoperiod-sensitive genic male sterility mutant of cotton is PSM1, and/or a photoperiod-sensitive genic sterile line obtained through selective breeding of hybridized and/or backcrossed and/or self-bred offsprings of the PSM1.

  • Publication number: 20220162520
    Abstract: The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of extraction of fragrance substances, and specifically relates to Cymbidium goeringii balsam and a preparation method and use thereof. The present disclosure is implemented by cultivating multiple plants of Cymbidium goeringii with unravelling bloom collectively in a relatively small enclosed space, and enriching fragrance substances of Cymbidium goeringii in the air by lipid for adsorption. The method of the present disclosure can obtain Cymbidium goeringii balsam rich in a variety of fragrance components in a relatively short time. GC-MS detection indicates as many as 50 components. The present disclosure significantly improves the prior art in which only a small amount of fragrance components in Cymbidium goeringii can be extracted or even cannot be obtained. The present disclosure can be further used in extracting essential oils or applied directly.

  • Publication number: 20210274258
    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods for improving interactions with and between computers in content communicating, rendering, recommending, generating, hosting and/or providing systems supported by or configured with personal computing devices, servers and/or platforms. The systems interact to identify and retrieve data within or across platforms, which can be used to improve the quality of data used in processing interactions between or among processors in such systems. The present disclosure provides systems and methods for pushing information between two network connected devices during rendering of content on one of the devices. While a first device is rendering content, additional information corresponding to the rendered content can be communicated to the connected second device and rendered on the second device without interrupting the playback of the content rendered on the first device.

  • Patent number: 10041085
    Abstract: A plant type related protein, and a coding gene and an application thereof are provided. The protein is: (a) a protein consisting of the amino acid sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1; (b) a SEQ ID NO: 1-derived protein having substitution, deletion, and/or addition of an amino acid residue on the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1, and related to the plant type and/or inactivation of a plant brassinolide type, or (c) a protein having more than 80% homology to the sequence of SEQ ID NO: 1 and related to a plant type and inactivation of a plant brassinolide type. The protein and its coding gene have very important value in improving crop production, improving the visual enjoyability of a green plant, implementing simple cultivation of a plant and improving the breeding efficiency, and has a broad prospective in genetic improvement of a plant, new variety cultivation and an application.

  • Publication number: 20180216131
    Abstract: An artificially synthesized insect-resistant protein, biological materials associated therewith, and use thereof are disclosed. The protein is designated as MRP001 protein, and is a protein of A1) or A2): A1) a protein having an amino acid sequence as shown in SEQ ID No.6; and A2) a protein having insect resistance derived from A1) by substituting, and/or deleting, and/or adding one or more amino acid residues in the amino acid sequence of the protein of A1). It is confirmed through experiments that the MRP001 protein and biological materials associated therewith have resistance to plant bug, and are useful in the preparation of biological ant-insect agent containing the protein, and in the cultivation of insect-resistant transgenic cotton, fruits, tea, rice, vegetables and other crops, thereby reducing the application of pesticides and alleviating the environmental pollution, and thus being of great economic value and broad application prospect.

  • Publication number: 20150379548
    Abstract: Methods and systems for data processing. The method includes receiving, by a computing device, data to be processed. The computing device may determine whether a random value corresponding to the data to be processed is stored in a storage medium associated with the computing device. If the random value is stored in the storage medium associated with the computing device, the computing device may process the data to be processed using the random value. If the random value is not stored in the storage medium associated with the computing device, the computing device may obtain an additional random value for the data to be processed, and process the data to be processed using the additional random value, and store the additional random value in the storage medium associated with the computing device.
