RESUMEN
In the past decade, progress has been made in sex determination mechanism in Vitis. However, genes responsible for sexual differentiation and its mechanism in V. amurensis remain unknown. Here, we identify a sex determination candidate gene coding adenine phosphoribosyl transferase 3 (VaAPRT3) in V. amurensis. Cloning and sequencing of the VaAPRT3 gene allowed us to develop a molecular marker able to discriminate female individuals from males or hermaphrodites based on a 22-bp InDel. Gene expression and endogenous cytokinin content analysis revealed that the VaAPRT3 gene is involved in sex determination or, to be precise, in female organ differentiation, through regulating cytokinin metabolism in V. amurensis. This study enlarged the understanding of sex determination mechanism in the genus Vitis, and the sex marker could be used as a helpful tool for sexual identification in breeding programs as well as in investigation and collection of V. amurensis germplasms.
RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the prevalence of hypertension among residents over 18 years of age in Shigatse, Tibet, and to explore the correlation between different influencing factors and the incidence of hypertension. Methods A questionnaire survey and field blood pressure measurements were used to collect the information of age, education, occupation, smoking, drinking, body mass index (BMI) and salt intake were collected from 391 residents in Shigatse area. Logistic regression analysis of SPSS was used for statistical analysis. Results 391 questionnaires showed that the prevalence of hypertension was 38.36%, of which 39.91% was male and 36.52% was female. The results of multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that the factors associated with hypertension in Shigatse residents included age, BMI, smoking and drinking, in which age and BMI, smoking were positively correlated with hypertension. Alcohol consumption was negatively correlated with hypertension. Conclusion In Shigatse area, age, BMI and smoking were the risk factors of hypertension, while drinking alcohol was protective factor of hypertension.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE: To explore the effectiveness of olecranon osteotomy approach for the treatment of coronal shear fracture of the distal end of the humerus. METHODS: A retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 34 patients with the coronal shear fracture of the distal end of the humerus treated by the olecranon osteotomy approach from January 2005 to January 2013. Of 34 cases, there were 15 boys and 19 girls, aged from 17 years to 84 years (mean, 54.9±10.2 years); 18 patients had fractures on the left and 16 patients had fractures on the right. Fractures were classified according to the Bryan and Morrey classification united Mckee classification: type Iinjuries occurred in 10 cases, type IIinjuries in 5 cases, type III injuries in 10 cases and type IV injuries in 9 cases. The Mayo elbow functional scores were evaluated for analysis. RESULTS: All the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 15 to 96 months, with a mean of (35.1±7.2) months. Average arc of motion was (132.1±11.2)° in flexion and (4.6±1.9)° in extension. The average Mayo score was 85.9±6.3(73 to 94 scores). Thirteen patients got an excellent result, 15 good and 6 poor. The average Mayo score was 88.6±3.7 in type Iinjuries, 85.8±4.6 in type IIinjuries, 81.8±5.8 in type III injuries and 87.5±9.1 in type IV injuries. There were no significant differences in outcomes. CONCLUSIONS: The treatment for the coronal shear fracture of the distal end of the humerus by the olecranon osteotomy approach can achieve the satisfactory curative effect, maintain the reduction and improve the elbow function.

OBJECTIVE: To compare clinical outcomes of locking plate for proximal humeral fracture whether application of inferomedial screws. METHODS: From January 2012 to July 2013, 46 patients with proximal humeral fracture underwent locking plates were retrospectively analyzed. There were 25 males and 21 females aged from 29 to 80 years old with an average of 55.1 years old. Among them, 25 patients were treated with inferomedial screws (support group), including 13 males and 12 females aged from 38 to 80 years old with an average of (55.8 ± 11.8) years old; 8 cases were part two fracture,10 cases were part three fracture and 7 cases were part four fracture according to Neer classification. Twenty-one patients were treated without inferomedial screws (non-support group), including 12 males and 9 females aged from 29 to 79 years old with an average of (54.2 ± 14.8)years old; 6 cases were part two fracture, 9 cases were part three fracture and 6 cases were part four fracture according to Neer classification. Operative time, fracture healing time and complications were observed and compared, Neer scoring of shoulder joint were used to evaluate clinical effect. RESULTS: All patients were followed up from 12 to 41 months with an average of 15.6 months. Operative time and fracture healing time in support group was (1.6 ± 0.4) h and (3.0 ± 0.6) months, and (1.5 ± 0.4) h and (3.1 ± 0.6) months in non-support group, while there was no statistical difference in operative time and fracture healing time between two groups. There was significant differences in Neer score between support group (89.7± 4.9) and non-support group (83.1 ± 7.1). No complication occurred in support group,while 4 cases occurred complications in non-support group. CONCLUSION: Locking plate with inferomedial screws for proximal humeral fracture has advantages of stable fixation, less complications, quick recovery of function and satisfied clinical effect.

A somatic embryogenesis protocol for plant regeneration of Schisandra chinensis (Turcz.) Baillon was established. Increased callus induction was obtained from mature zygotic embryos on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 1.0 mg L(-1) N-phenyl-1,2,3-thidiazol-5-yl-urea (TDZ) or 2.0 mg L(-1) 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D). Addition of Zeatin (Zt) promoted the formation of embryogenic calli. To induce somatic embryogenesis, 2,4-D, TDZ and Zt were incorporated in the medium alone or in combination. Development of the maximum number of somatic embryos (81 globular, 37 heart, 52 torpedo and 37 cotyledon-stage) and germination of the highest number of embryos (50%) was observed on 1/2 MS medium supplemented with 1.0 mg L(-1) TDZ and 0.2 mg L(-1) Zt. Further development of somatic embryos into plantlets was completed in 1/2 MS medium free of plant growth regulators.

Taking the tissue-cultured seedlings of grape cultivar Red Globe as test objects, this paper examined the effects of their root aqueous extracts on seedling's growth, with the allelochemicals identified by LC-MS. The results showed that 0.02 g x ml(-1) (air-dried root mass in aqueous extracts volume; the same below), 0.1 g x ml(-1), and 0.2 g x ml(-1) of the aqueous extracts inhibited the growth of the seedlings significantly, and the inhibition effect increased with increasing concentration of the extracts. The identified allelochemicals of the extracts included p-hydroxybenzoic acid, salicylic acid, phenylpropionic acid, and coumaric acid. Pot experiment showed that different concentration (0.1, 1, and 10 mmol x L(-1)) salicylic acid and phenylpropionic acid inhibited the seedling' s growth remarkably. With the increasing concentration of the two acids, the plant height, stem diameter, shoot- and root fresh mass, leaf net photosynthetic rate and starch content, and root activity of the seedlings decreased, while the leaf soluble sugar and MDA contents increased. No obvious change pattern was observed in leaf protein content.

Rhizosphere and non-rhizosphere soil samples were collected from the vineyards having been planted for 3 and 30 years, and PCR-DGGE technique was adopted to study the effects of grape-replanting on the population structure and diversity of soil bacteria and fungi. The bacterial and fungal diversities were higher in 30-year-planted vineyard than in 3-year-planted vineyard, and higher in rhizosphere soil than in non-rhizosphere soil. After 30 years replanting, the population structure of bacteria and fungi approached the same in rhizosphere soil and non-rhizosphere soil but differed from that in fallow soil; while in the 3-year-planted vineyard, the population structure in rhizosphere soil was different from that in non-rhizosphere soil and fallow soil. Comparing with that in 3-year-planted vineyard, the rhizosphere soil microbial population in 30-year-planted vineyard had a greater change. In bacterial population, Flavobacterium sp. (DQ339585) and Bacillus sp. (AY039821) decreased while Pedobacter sp. (AJ871084) increased; in fungal population, Omphalina farinolens (EF413029) appeared, Pestalotiopsis sp. (DQ657877, DQ657875, DQ657871), Phacidium lacerum (DQ470976), and Lecythophora decumbens (AF353597) decreased, while Pilidium acerinum voucher (AY48709) increased. Bacillus sp., Flavobacterium sp. , and Pestalotiopsis sp. had antagonism to pathogen, and their decrease reduced the resistance of grape against pathogen. The increase of Pilidium acerinum voucher might relate to the severe disease after grape-replanting.

Taking Meizao/Dongbeishanyingtao (Prunus serrulata G. Don) and Meizao/Mahaleb (P. mahaleb L.) as test materials, the respiration intensity and respiratory enzyme activities of their growing roots and brown lignified roots were determined under waterlogging. The results showed that under waterlogging, the root respiration intensity of the two kind rootstocks had a decreasing trend, with more decrement for their growing roots. For P. serrulata, the decrement of the respiration intensity of its growing roots and brown lignified roots was 1.47 and 1.36 times as much as that of P. mahaleb, respectively. The pyruvate decarboxylase (PDC) and lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) activities of the two kind roots had a decrease after an initial increase. Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) activity in growing roots also had a decrease after an initial increase, but that in brown lignified roots had an increasing trend. The test three enzyme activities changed more in growing roots than in brown lignified roots. The increment of ADH and LDH activities was higher for P. serrulata than for P. mahaleb, while PDC activity was in adverse. The malate dehydrogenase (MDH) activity of the two kind roots decreased, and the decrement was larger in growing roots than in brown lignified roots. P. serrulata had a larger decrement of root MDH activity than P. mahaleb To the waterlogging stress, growing roots was more sensitive than brown lignified roots, and P. serrulata was more sensitive than P. mahaleb.

OBJECTIVE: To reveal the relation between endogenous hormones and the flower bud differentiation in Schisandga chinensis. METHOD: Top buds of extremely short branch and axillary buds of long branch in the same plant of S. chinensis were used as material and the contents of endogenous hormones were measured during different periods of the flower bud differentiation with HPLC. RESULT: The result showed that flower bud differentiation and the formation of female flower were inhibited by high concentration of GA3 and were promoted by high concentration of ABA or ZT. Low ratio of GA3/ABA has the same result. CONCLUSION: There was a correlation between endogenous hormones and the flower bud differentiation of S. chinensis.
