  • Patent number: 11932912
    Abstract: The present specification discloses a method for detecting an aneuploid of a Brassica oleracea plant, including: performing real-time PCR using DNA extracted from a sample derived from a Brassica oleracea plant to be tested as a template and DNA markers specific to each of two or more chromosomes of Brassica oleracea plant; and detecting chromosomal aneuploidy from a relative difference in amplification amount between the obtained DNA markers. According to one embodiment of the present invention, it is possible to simply, accurately, and rapidly detect an off-type (chromosomal aneuploid) that may occur in Brassica oleracea varieties, in a laboratory equipped with a general molecular biological equipment in the course of seed quality control and breeding research.

  • Publication number: 20050278772
    Abstract: The present invention relates to a program effect creating device for performing effect creation for a broadcast program by receiving a command and executing the received command in synchronization with a predetermined scene in the broadcast program. The program effect creating device comprises: a memory unit operable to store a predefined identifier; a judgment unit operable to judge whether an identifier appended to the received command agrees with the predefined identifier stored by the memory unit; and an execution unit operable to, when a judgment result of the judgment unit is affirmative, decode and execute the received command to thereby perform the effect creation.

  • Publication number: 20030023987
    Abstract: Because of limitations of a display area allocated on a mobile telephone or a remote controller, even if a program table is displayed according to the EPG information, the browsability of programs is mostly insufficient, and it is likely for a user to miss the program. In a case where a user updates recording reservation information of a program reserved for recording by using a mobile telephone of the present invention, the mobile telephone acquires the recording reservation information and information of broadcasting schedule, and displays point of difference between the recording reservation information and the information of the broadcasting schedule. Consequently, the user can easily and surely find the change of the broadcasting schedule, and match contents of update with the change.
