Abstract: A method for producing lysophosphatidylethanolamine 18:1 includes extracting phospholipids including mainly phosphatidylethanolamine from a microorganism of Pseudomonas sp. and treating the extracted phospholipids with phospholipase A2. An alternative method for producing lysophosphatidylethanolamine 18:1 includes treating a microorganism of Pseudomonas sp. directly with phospholipase A2. The lysophosphatidylethanolamine 18:1 can be used as a plant vaccine material for preventing the plants from injuries caused by pathogen infections and/or environmental stresses and accelerating the recovery of plants injured by pathogen infections and/or environmental stresses, and can also be used as a composition for enhancing fruit ripening (color and sweetness) and storage properties, and as it can be used for an application in plant tissues, food products, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and agricultural use, it would be very advantageously used in related industries.

Abstract: A disclosed method detects user input to set wallpaper of a first operating system environment using an image data file, and sends the image data file from the first operating system environment to a second operating system environment along with a request to update wallpaper of the second operating system environment. The two operating system environments are independent and utilize a common kernel. The method sets the wallpaper of the second operating system environment using the image data file. The method may also establish a bi-directional client-server communication channel between the operating system environments, and send the request to update wallpaper of the second operating system environment via the bi-directional client-server communication channel. An apparatus that performs the method includes a programmable processor, and memory containing executable instructions. The processor runs multiple operating system environments utilizing a common kernel.

Abstract: A method for a multi-modal device for transferring launch information for a panel and first docking bar in a first application environment to a second application environment for a second docking bar in the second application environment includes detecting a docking of the multi-modal device to a hardware module, and displaying a user interface for the second application environment operating on the multi-modal device on the hardware module. The method includes receiving at the second application environment the launch information for launching launchable objects in the first application environment from the second application environment, and parsing, by the second application environment, the launch information to determine a change to the panel or the first docking bar. The change is in the first application environment. The method includes changing the second docking bar to include the change to the panel or the first docking bar based on parsing the launch information.

Abstract: A device and method for synchronizing background images within a multi-environment operating system is provided herein. During operation, a processor running a first operating system environment will utilize a first background image for a first graphical user interface on the device. The first operating system will save the first background image to a shared image file. A second operating system environment being run by the processor will access the shared image file and utilize the first background image for a second GUI on an external display.
