Abstract: Disclosed are a swab flocking device and a flock blowing and flocking process for a swab. A conveying drag chain transversely penetrates through a flocking box, several swab hangers are arranged on the conveying drag chain at intervals, and the conveying drag chain is connected to a first motor. Several blowers are arranged on an outer side of the conveying drag chain in the flocking box. During flocking, a swab stick is hung on the swab hanger and then is conveyed forwards by the conveying drag chain, and several blowers are configured to blow flocks onto an end head of the swab stick.

Abstract: The invention provides a rapid and efficient method and assay for monitoring yield enhancement in a plant using a measure of silk number. The plant is transformed with a prospective gene associated with yield enhancement. The transformed plant is grown along with non-transformed control plants until silk growth is apparent. The change in the number of silks in the transformed plant correlated to the change in yield for the plant. Therefore, changes in yield enhancement can be estimated in the transformed plant prior to harvest of mature plant tissues.
