Sogatella furcifera Saliva Mucin-like Protein Is Required for Feeding and Induces Rice Defences

The white-backed planthopper (WBPH), Sogatella furcifera, is one of the most important piercing-sucking pests of rice (Oryza sativa) in Asia. Mucin-like salivary protein (SFMLP) is highly expressed in the salivary glands of WBPH, which plays an important role in WBPH feeding. In this study, WBPH injected with dsSFMLP had difficulty in sucking phloem sap from rice plants, which significantly reduced their food intake, weight, and survival. In contrast, the knockdown of the SFMLP gene had only a marginal effect on the survival of WBPH fed an artificial diet. Further studies showed that silencing SFMLP resulted in the short and single-branched salivary sheaths secretion and less formation of salivary flanges in rice. These data suggest that SFMLP is involved in the formation of the salivary sheath and is essential for feeding in WBPH. Overexpression of the SFMLP gene in rice plants promoted the feeding of WBPH, whereas silencing the gene in rice plants significantly decreased WBPH performance. Additionally, it was found that overexpression of SFMLP in rice plants elicited the signalling pathway of SA (salicylic acid) while suppressing JA (jasmonic acid); in contrast, silencing of the SFMLP gene in rice plants showed the opposite results. This study clarified the function of SFMLP in WBPH feeding as well as mediating rice defences.

Decode‐and‐forward with full‐duplex relaying

This paper addresses the full‐duplex relaying. Some expressions for outage and average capacity of a two‐hop cooperative system with a full‐duplex relay are derived under an independent but not identically distributed Rayleigh fading environment. Using these expressions, we provide the performance analysis without Monte Carlo simulations. The impact of interference between the relay output and input is investigated.

Synthesis and characterization of La2Ti2O7 employed for photocatalytic degradation of reactive red 22 dyestuff in aqueous solution

Perovskite structured La₂Ti₂O₇ catalyst prepared by polymerized complex method was characterized and examined the photocatalytic activity by decomposing an azo dyestuff, Reactive Red 22, in aqueous solutions under UV irradiation. La₂Ti₂O₇ powders prepared by polymerized complex method exhibit higher surface areas, better homogeneity and are more sensitive to solution than those prepared by solid-state method. The first derivatives of UV–vis DRS patterns confirmed the complete crystallization of La₂Ti₂O₇ sintered at temperatures higher than 900 °C. The effects of sintering temperature of catalyst and solution pH of photocatalytic reaction were studied. The photocatalytic decomposition of Reactive Red 22 per unit surface area was found to be higher for experiments using La₂Ti₂O₇ than using TiO₂. However, the electron–hole recombination was found to be more obvious for La₂Ti₂O₇ than for TiO₂ because the network of metal cations constructed within La₂Ti₂O₇ enhances the mobility of photogenerated electrons and holes.     

Study on Microstructure and Mechanical Properties of Hot Rolled Low Silicon Containing Phosphorus TRIP Steel

The effects of final air cooling temperature on the microstructure and mechanical properties of hot rolled 0.2C-1.9Mn-0.5Si-0.08P TRIP steel were studied by utilizing OM, SEM, TEM and tensile tests. Experimental results showed that in the multiphase microstructure of the investigated steel when the finish rolling temperature was about 820 ℃ and the final air cooling temperature was in the range of 630-700 ℃, the grain size of most of ferrite was finer (about 4 μm) and which had higher dislocation density, t...     

Progress in Thermal Contact Resistance

The developments of aeronautics and astronautics require engines of higher quality. The temperature distribution in combustion engine is highly influenced by the thermal conduct resistance. To predict the temperature field of the hot-end assemblies of combustion engine, the thermal contact resistance must be considered. The object of the study is to propose a model of high application including in conditions of high temperature and high pressure. Up to date, many models and empirical or semi-empirical corre...
