  • Publication number: 20240352474
    Abstract: The present disclosure belongs to the technical field of plant genetic engineering. An objective of the present disclosure is to increase an anthocyanidin content of a rice seed. The present disclosure provides use of ZlMYB1 and ZlMYB2 genes from Zizania latifolia in increasing an anthocyanidin content of a rice seed, where the ZlMYB1 gene has the nucleotide sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 1; and the ZlMYB2 gene has the nucleotide sequence set forth in SEQ ID NO: 2. In the present disclosure, the ZlMYB1 and ZlMYB2 genes can be effectively overexpressed in rice. When a growth environment is consistent with that of a control plant, rice seeds from a rice plant overexpressing the ZlMYB1 and ZlMYB2 genes turn black and have a significantly increased anthocyanidin content compared with those from the control plant.

  • Patent number: 10087125
    Abstract: Disclosed in the present invention are a chromium-free gas phase fluorination catalyst and an application thereof. The precursor of the related chromium-free gas phase fluorination catalyst consists of a compound containing iron element, a compound containing rare earth metal element and a compound containing element A, wherein element A is one selected from Ca, Al, Mg and Ti, the precursor is subjected to roasting and fluorination treating to obtain the chromium-free gas phase fluorination catalyst. The precursor of the catalyst is roasted at 400-500° C. and fluoridized with hydrogen fluoride at 350-450° C. to obtain the chromium-free gas phase fluorination catalyst. The catalyst has characteristics of being chromium-free and environment-friendly, good catalytic activity and long life etc. The catalyst can be used for preparing hydrofluoroolefins or hydrochlorofluoroolefins from halohydrocarbons.
