Optimisation of near-infrared reflectance model in measuring protein and amylose content of rice flour.

Xie LH, Tang SQ, Chen N, Luo J, Jiao GA, Shao GN, Wei XJ, Hu PS.Author information China National Center for Rice Improvement, China National Rice Research Institute, Hangzhou 310006, PR China.AbstractNear-infrared reflectance spectroscopy (NIRS) has been used to predict the cooking quality parameters of rice, such as the protein (PC) and amylose content (AC). Using brown and milled flours from 519 rice samples representing a wide range of grain qualities, this study was to compare the calibration models generated by different mathematical, preprocessing treatments, and combinations of different regression algorithm. A modified partial least squares model (MPLS) with the mathematic treatment "2, 8, 8, 2" (2nd order derivative computed based on 8 data points, and 8 and 2 data points in the 1st and 2nd smoothing, respectively) and inverse multiplicative scattering correction preprocessing treatment was identified as the best model for simultaneously measurement of PC and AC in brown flours. MPLS/"2, 8, 8, 2"/detrend preprocessing was identified as the best model for milled flours. The results indicated that NIRS could be useful in estimation of PC and AC of breeding lines in early generations of the breeding programs, and for the purposes of quality control in the food industry.

Nucleotide sequence diversity in Velvet tobacco mottle virus: a virus with a unique Australian pathosystem.

Arthur K, Collins NC, Yazarlou A, Randles JW.Author information School of Agriculture, Food and Wine, University of Adelaide, PMB1, Glen Osmond, SA, 5064, Australia, kieren.arthur@plantandfood.co.nz.AbstractVelvet tobacco mottle virus (VTMoV) is a naturally occurring mirid-transmitted sobemovirus of native velvet tobacco (Nicotiana velutina) plants in the Australian arid zone. We have sequenced the coding region of a typical field isolate of VTMoV (isolate I-17-04, satellite-plus) and show that it differed by nine polymorphisms from the previously sequenced atypical 'satellite-minus' variant VTMoV-K1 (represented here as L-K1-04), while retaining the same genomic and amino acid sequence motifs. We also report that although L-K1-04 was confirmed to be free of detectable satellite RNA by gel electrophoretic assay, the satellite sequence was detected in it by RT-PCR assay. Nucleotide sequence variation among the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase open reading frames of 15 field and laboratory isolates identified four phylogenetic groups, but these did not show a pattern related to site or time of sampling. This result would be consistent with nucleotide sequence variants of VTMoV being dispersed widely by migrating adult mirid vectors.

Partial AZFc duplications not deletions are associated with male infertility in the Yi population of Yunnan Province, China.

Ye JJ, Ma L, Yang LJ, Wang JH, Wang YL, Guo H, Gong N, Nie WH, Zhao SH.Author information State Key Laboratory of Genetic Resources and Evolution, Kunming Institute of Zoology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, Kunming 650223, China; Yunnan Key Laboratory of Fertility Regulation and Minority Eugenics, Yunnan Population and Family Planning Research Institute, Kunming 650021, China; Department of Urology, Kunming General Hospital of Chengdu Military Command, Kunming 650032, China; Haiyuan College, Kunming Medical University, Kunming 650021, China.AbstractOBJECTIVE: There are many reports on associations between spermatogenesis and partial azoospermia factor c (AZFc) deletions as well as duplications; however, results are conflicting, possibly due to differences in methodology and ethnic background. The purpose of this study is to investigate the association of AZFc polymorphisms and male infertility in the Yi ethnic population, residents within Yunnan Province, China.
