RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Prunus cistena is an excellent color leaf configuration tree for urban landscaping in the world, which has purplish red leaves, light pink flowers, plant shape and high ornamental value. Genomic resources for P. cistena are scarce, and a clear phylogenetic and evolutionary history for this species has yet to be elucidated. Here, we sequenced and analyzed the complete chloroplast genome of P. cistena and compared it with related species of the genus Prunus based on the chloroplast genome. RESULTS: The complete chloroplast genome of P. cistena is a 157,935 bp long typical tetrad structure, with an overall GC content of 36.72% and higher GC content in the in the inverted repeats (IR) regions than in the large single-copy (LSC) and small single-copy (SSC) regions. It contains 130 genes, including 85 protein-coding genes, 37 tRNA genes, and 8 rRNA genes. The ycf3 and clpP genes have two introns, with the longest intron in the trnK-UUU gene in the LSC region. Moreover, the genome has a total of 253SSRs, with the mononucleotide SSRs being the most abundant. The chloroplast sequences and gene arrangements of P. cistena are highly conserved, with the overall structure and gene order similar to other Prunus species. The atpE, ccsA, petA, rps8, and matK genes have undergone significant positive selection in Prunus species. P. cistena has a close evolutionary relationship with P. jamasakura. The coding and IR regions are more conserved than the noncoding regions, and the chloroplast DNA sequences are highly conserved throughout the genus Prunus. CONCLUSIONS: The current genomic datasets provide valuable information for further species identification, evolution, and phylogenetic research of the genus Prunus.

As multilayer networks are widely applied in modern society, numerous studies have shown the impact of a multilayer network structure and the network nature on the proportion of cooperators in the network. In this paper, we use Barabási-Albert scale-free networks (BA) and Watts and Strogatz networks (WS) to build a multilayer network structure, and we propose a new strategy-updating rule called "cooperation-defection dominance", which can be likened to dominant and recessive traits in biogenetics. With the newly constructed multilayer network structure and the strategy-updating rules, based on the simulation results, we find that in the BA-BA network, the cooperation dominance strategy can make the networks with different rs show a cooperative trend, while the defection dominance strategy only has an obvious effect on the network cooperation with a larger r. When the BA network is connected to the WS network, we find that the effect of strategy on the proportion of cooperators in the network decreases, and the main influencing factor is the structure of the network. In the three-layer network, the cooperation dominance strategy has a greater impact on the BA network, and the proportion of the cooperators is enhanced more than under the natural evolution strategy, but the promotion effect is still smaller than that of the two-layer BA network because of the WS network. Under the defection dominance strategy, the WS layer appears different from the first two strategies, and we conclude through simulation that when the payoff parameter is at the middle level, its cooperator proportion will be suppressed, and we deduce that the proportion of cooperators and defectors, as well as the payoff, play an important role.
RESUMO
We analyze three-dimensional (3D) vector solitary waves in a system of coupled nonlinear Schrödinger equations with spatially modulated diffraction and nonlinearity, under action of a composite self-consistent trapping potential. Exact vector solitary waves, or light bullets (LBs), are found using the self-similarity method. The stability of vortex 3D LB pairs is examined by direct numerical simulations; the results show that only low-order vortex soliton pairs with the mode parameter values n ≤ 1, l ≤ 1 and m = 0 can be supported by the spatially modulated interaction in the composite trap. Higher-order LBs are found unstable over prolonged distances.
RESUMO
The present study aimed to analyze the lipid profiles of three selected chicken eggs (Nixi, silky fowl, and ordinary eggs) from the market of China by an UPLC-Q-Exactive-MS based untargeted lipidomics approach. In total, 11 classes and 285 lipid molecular species were identified from the egg yolks. Glycerophospholipids (GPLs, 6 classes, 168 lipid species) are the most abundant lipids groups, followed by sphingolipids (3 classes, 50 lipid species), and two neutral lipid classes (TG and DG). Notably, two ethersubclass of GPLs (PC-e and PE-p) and 12 species of cerebrosides were firstly detected from the chicken eggs. Furthermore, multivariate statistical analysis was performed and the lipids profiles of the three types of eggs were well discriminated from each other by 30 predominant lipids species. The characteristic lipid molecules of the different kind of eggs were also screened out. This study provides a novel insight for better understanding the lipid profiles and nutritional values of different chicken eggs.

In this paper, a modified infrared and visible image registration method based on contour feature is proposed. Our method firstly extracts the feature contour and eliminates sparkling waves contour of the sea surface, determines the main direction of the contour based on the contour image, then uses the improved Scale Invariant Feature Transform (SIFT) method as the feature point to construct the descriptor, completes the registration of the two images. 30 sets of infrared and visible-band vessels images were selected for registration experiments. Compared with previous reports, the experimental results showed that the proportion of effective feature points detected by this method can reach 70%, and the average number of effective feature points detected by proposed method can reach 196 in visible band image and 279 in infrared image. The running time was 5.3599s, shortened by 25% compared with previous reports, and the average Root Mean Square Error (RMSE) value was 2.3566, smaller by 75% compared with previous reports. An effective registration method is provided, which can be used for infrared and visible image processing and comprehensive utilization of information in marine scenes.
RESUMO
The composition and evolution characteristics of inorganic anions, ammonia, heavy metals and organic compounds in leachates with different composing times were studied in a composting plant in order to clarify its composition and evolution and search for a suitable processing technology. The results showed that concentrations of EC, F-, Cl-, SO4(2-) and NH4(+) -N decreased during the composting process, while the contents of NO2(-) -N, NO3(-) -N and Org-N were related to the oxidation reduction atmosphere of leachates. The Pb, Cd, Cu, Zn and As concentrations in leachates exhibited a decrease trend during the composting process, while contents of heavy metals Cr, Ni, Fe, Mn showed an increase trend with increasing composting time. The composting leachate organics comprised mainly of protein-like substance, but also consisted of humic-like substances. The leachate organics were suitable to be treated by biochemical process firstly, and then by physico-chemical technique. The relative content of protein-like substances firstly increased and then decreased, while that of humic-like matter exhibited an opposite trend. The contents of salinity and heavy metal in compost leachates were high, which caused the improper reflux utilization of leachates. The compost leachates should be treated by the combined biochemical and physico-chemical process before emission.
