Genome-wide analyses of LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDARIES in cassava reveal the role of LBD47 in defence against bacterial blight.

The Arabidopsis thaliana ASYMMETRIC LEAVES2 (AS2) gene is responsible for the development of flat, symmetric, and extended leaf laminae and their veins. The AS2 gene belongs to the plant-specific AS2-LIKE/LATERAL ORGAN BOUNDARIES (LOB)-domain (ASL/LBD), which consists of 42 proteins in Arabidopsis with a conserved amino-terminal domain known as the AS2/LOB domain, and a variable carboxyl-terminal region. AS2/LOB domain consists of an amino-terminal (N-terminal) that contains a cysteine repeat (the C-motif), a conserved glycine residue, and a leucine-zipper-like.

Identification of two cassava receptor-like cytoplasmic kinase genes related to disease resistance via genome-wide and functional analysis.

Receptor-like cytoplasmic kinases (RLCKs) play important roles in various developmental processes and stress responses in plants. Whereas, the detailed information of this family in cassava has not clear yet. In this study, A total of 322 MeRLCK genes were identified in the cassava genome, and they could be divided into twelve clades (Clades I-XII) according to their phylogenetic relationships.

, Subfamily Genes of Transcription Factors From Cassava, Play an Important Role in Disease Resistance.

Cassava ( Crantz) is an important tropical crop for food, fodder, and energy. Cassava bacterial blight (CBB) caused by pv. () occurs in all cassava growing regions and threatens global cassava production.

Water inrush characteristics and hazard effects during the transition from open-pit to underground mining: a case study.

During the transition from open-pit to underground mining in iron ore mines, water inrush is a prominent problem for mine safety and production. In this paper, a comprehensive method that incorporates hydrochemical analysis and numerical simulation is proposed to analyse the characteristics of water inrush during the transition from open-pit to underground mining. The proposed method revealed the migration law of groundwater and analysed the source of mine water inrush in the Yanqianshan iron mine located in Liaoning province, China.

Design and implementation of levee project information management system based on WebGIS.

The China Levee Project Information Management System (CLPIMS) is an information management platform that was established for levee project management within the seven major river basins in China. The system was developed on the basis of the VS.NET and ArcGIS Server and was combined with the database theory and key techniques of WebGIS, which has the features of real-time display, enquiry, statistics and management of spatial data under browser/server mode.
