SSR marker based analysis for identification and of genetic diversity of non-heading Chinese cabbage varieties.

As a widely cultivated vegetable in China and Southeast Asia, the breeding of non-heading Chinese cabbage ( ssp. Makino) is widespread; more than 400 varieties have been granted new plant variety rights (PVRs) in China. Distinctness is one of the key requirements for the granting of PVRs, and molecular markers are widely used as a robust supplementary method for similar variety selection in the distinctness test.

The reference genome and full-length transcriptome of pakchoi provide insights into cuticle formation and heat adaption.

includes various vegetables with high economic value. Among them, green petiole type pakchoi ( ssp. ) is one of the major vegetables grown in southern China.

High-Sensitivity Flexible Pressure Sensor-Based 3D CNTs Sponge for Human-Computer Interaction.

Researchers are showing an increasing interest in high-performance flexible pressure sensors owing to their potential uses in wearable electronics, bionic skin, and human-machine interactions, etc. However, the vast majority of these flexible pressure sensors require extensive nano-architectural design, which both complicates their manufacturing and is time-consuming. Thus, a low-cost technology which can be applied on a large scale is highly desirable for the manufacture of flexible pressure-sensitive materials that have a high sensitivity over a wide range of pressures.
