  • Patent number: 12606841
    Abstract: A sesame shattering resistance trait regulation gene Sihec3 and its application are provided. This gene is located on the third chromosome of sesame, is a recessive control gene, and fully explains the phenotypic variation of the shattering resistance trait. Genetic analysis of the shattering trait was conducted with F2 and F2:3 populations derived from a hybrid combination between a shattering resistance mutant M7 and normal shattering material. The research indicates that the seed shattering resistance trait in the tested population is a recessive trait controlled by a single gene. Based on the self-constructed sesame genome fine map and efficient gene mapping technology, the key gene Sihec3 and its allele SiHEC3 regulating the sesame shattering trait were cloned and compared. A corresponding gene marker named SSR1 for the sesame shattering resistance trait was dig. This invention provides a technical foundation for breeding new sesame varieties with shattering resistance trait.

  • Publication number: 20250109448
    Abstract: A gene SiPT1 regulating a sesame plant architecture trait and a detection primer pair thereof are provided. This gene is located on 10th chromosome of sesame, belongs to a dominant control gene, has 100% explanation ratio for a branching trait; the gene has a length of 1318 bp, contains 4 exons and 3 introns, and its base sequence is shown in SEQ ID No. 1. Based on analysis and research of this gene, a good technical foundation can be laid for an early identification and rapid screening of sesame plant architecture in new varieties breeding; it has important technical significance for accelerating to breed new sesame varieties suitable for mechanized operations; can also provide a certain genetic foundation for the development of molecular assisted breeding technology and screening and breeding of new sesame varieties with different plant architectures.

  • Publication number: 20190370743
    Abstract: A method for acquiring user information may include acquiring, by a first terminal, a waybill identifier and a logistics platform identifier associated with the first terminal. The method may include invoking, by the first terminal, a communications module in the first terminal and sending an information request carrying the waybill identifier and the logistics platform identifier to a logistics management server through the communications module. The method may also include receiving, by the first terminal and through the communications module, a reply message sent by the logistics management server. The reply message may carry user information corresponding to the waybill identifier and the logistics platform identifier. The first terminal is enabled to acquire the user information from the logistics management server through the built-in communications module.
