The agronomic performance and storage protein patterns of 722 soybean landraces collected from eight geographically different Korean locations were investigated. The days to 50% flowering, days to maturity, and 100-seed weight ranged from 68.9 to 71.9 (d), 140.1 to 146.6 (d), and 22.4 to 26.8 (g), respectively. High-throughput protein profiling electrophoresis was performed, and the banding patterns were analyzed. Among the 722 soybean landraces, lipoxygenase bands were found to be absent in 21 lines. Nei's gene diversity (h) ranged from 0 to 0.2642, with an average value of 0.1565. The mean coefficient of gene differentiation (Gst) was 0.0944, and the estimated gene flow (Nm) in the population was 4.7971. In a correlation matrix between the agronomic traits and protein banding patterns, the acidic banding pattern was significantly associated with all the other factors. The phenotypic and genotypic differences of the collection areas were evaluated, and the excellent soybean lines with high-value proteins, including 11S globulins, or without antinutritional factors such as lipoxygenase and trypsin inhibitor were selected.

Velusamy, D.B.,Kim, R.H.,Takaishi, K.,Muto, T.,Hashizume, D.,Lee, S.,Uchiyama, M.,Aoyama, T.,Ribierre, J.C.,Park, C. Elsevier Science 2014 Organic electronics Vol.15 No.11

Polymer ferroelectric-gate field effect transistors (Fe-FETs) employing ferroelectric polymer thin films as gate insulators are highly attractive as a next-generation non-volatile memory. For minimizing gate leakage current of a device which arises from electrically defective ferroelectric polymer layer in particular at low operation voltage, the materials design of interlayers between the ferroelectric insulator and gate electrode is essential. Here, we introduce a new solution-processed interlayer of conductive reduced graphene oxides (rGOs) modified with a conjugated block copolymer, poly(styrene-block-paraphenylene) (PS-b-PPP). A FeFET with a solution-processed p-type oligomeric semiconducting channel and ferroelectric poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-trifluoroethylene) (PVDF-TrFE) insulator exhibited characteristic source-drain current hysteresis arising from ferroelectric polarization switching of a PVDF-TrFE insulator. Our PS-b-PPP modified rGOs (PMrGOs) with conductive moieties embedded in insulating polymer matrix not only significantly reduced the gate leakage current but also efficiently lowered operation voltage of the device. In consequence, the device showed large memory gate voltage window and high ON/OFF source-drain current ratio with excellent data retention and read/write cycle endurance. Furthermore, our PMrGOs interlayers were successfully employed to FeFETs fabricated on mechanically flexible substrates with promising non-volatile memory performance under repetitive bending deformation.

<P>We present a simple, but robust route to efficiently disperse very high rGO concentrations of chemically reduced graphene oxides (rGOs) in various non-polar solvents and polymers. Our method is based on the noncovalent, nondestructive modification of rGOs with a conjugated block copolymer, poly(styrene-<I>block</I>-paraphenylene) (PS-<I>b</I>-PPP). The dispersion of rGOs occurred because PPP blocks strongly adhered to basal planes of rGOs by π–π interactions, while PS blocks provided good solubility in a variety of non-polar environments. The resulting PS-<I>b</I>-PPP modified rGOs (PMrGOs) showed excellent solubility and dispersion stability that was dependent on the quality of the solvent with respect to the PS blocks. In particular, extremely high solubility of the rGOs, as high as 1.5 mg mL<SUP>−1</SUP>, was achieved in THF. Our PMrGOs and their solution blends with other non-polymer polymers such as PS, poly(methylmethacrylate) and poly(isoprene-<I>block</I>-styrene) were conveniently spin-coated on various substrates, giving rise to ultra-thin nanohybrid films where the amount of rGO can be systematically controlled. The scalable and simple strategy employed for fabricating rGO nanohybrid films allowed us to assemble a high performance non-volatile resistive polymer memory device in which the bias-dependent trapping and de-trapping of injected charges were efficiently manipulated on the surface of highly dispersed rGO sheets in the nanohybrid.</P> <P>Graphic Abstract</P><P>A highly efficient route to disperse rGOs in non-polar liquid and solid media was developed by non-covalent, nondestructive modification of rGOs with a conjugated block copolymer, poly(styrene-<I>block</I>-paraphenylene) (PS-<I>b</I>-PPP). <IMG SRC='http://pubs.rsc.org/services/images/RSCpubs.ePlatform.Service.FreeContent.ImageService.svc/ImageService/image/GA?id=c2jm35539f'> </P>

The protein in soybean seeds accounts for approximately 40% of the dry seed weight. Two major storage proteins, 7S and 11S, constitute 70-80% of the total storage proteins in the seeds. In this study, the variation of total soluble protein extracts from 1152 soybean landraces that have been collected from South Korea were studied using high-throughput screening method with HT Protein Express Labchip (Caliper Life Sciences, Inc.). Seven distinct protein band patterns - four protein sub-units of 11S and three sub-units of 7S, were taken into account and their presence or absence were analyzed. Among the 1152 landraces, 525 genotypes were identified as lacking lipoxygenase, 255 lacking α1 subunit, 680 lacking α subunit, 169 lacking β subunit, 140 lacking acidic, 114 lacking Kunitz Trypsin Inhibitor (KTi) and 199 lacking basic protein patterns. The high-throughput protein analysis is helpful in screening a large number of populations with less time and minimum labor. The selected genotypes with low amounts or lacking of anti-nutritional factors such as trypsin inhibitor, lipoxygenase and α subunit would be used for future breeding purpose of quality improvement in soybean protein.

Raja, Velusamy,Tamilselvan, Ayyadurai Korean Mathematical Society 2019 대한수학회논문집 Vol.34 No.3

A class of systems of singularly perturbed convection diffusion type equations with integral boundary conditions is considered. A numerical method based on a finite difference scheme on a Shishkin mesh is presented. The suggested method is of almost first order convergence. An error estimate is derived in the discrete maximum norm. Numerical examples are presented to validate the theoretical estimates.

녹두나물(숙주나물)은 국내뿐만 아니라 세계적으로도 널리 이용되고 있는 채소다. 그런데 녹두나물 재배를 하는 과정에서 발생되는 녹두나물 무름병은 녹두나물 생산량은 물론 품질을 심각하게 저하시킨다. 본 연구에서는 녹두나물 부패 조직으로부터 70계통의 병원균을 분리하였으며, 각 병원균의 병원성을 검정하였다. 그 가운데 강한 병원성을 가진 Pseudomonas 균류의 계통 YV-St-033를 확인하여 선발하였으며, 분리된 병원균계의 16S rRNA 유전자 염기서열을 분석하고 유전학적 유연관계를 분석하였다. YV-St-033는 P. mosselii, P. putita, P. fluorescens, P. entomophila, P. lecoglossicida 등의 종이 속한 그룹으로 확인이 되었으며, Pseudomonas mosselii R10 strain과 가장 높은 염기서열 identity (약 99%)를 보였다. 또한 YV-St-033 strain을 이용하여 영남대학교에서 보유하고 있는 녹두 유전자원들에 대해 녹두나물 무름병 저항성을 검정하였다. 3일간 배양한 녹두에 병원균을 접종하고 녹두의 생장율을 비교한 결과 YV148 line에서 높은 저항성이 확인되었으며, 그 외 녹두 계통에서도 부분적인 저항성을 나타내었다. 숙주나물 무름병에 저항성을 보인 YV 148 계통은 나물이 가늘고 연하고 생장율이 우수하여 앞으로 품종 육종의 좋은 재료로 활용될 수 있을 것으로 판단되었다. Mungbean sprout rot is one of the most serious problems of the commercial mungbean sprout industry. In this study, 70 strains of mungbean sprout rot pathogens were isolated from rotten sprouts at different time intervals. The pathogenicity of the isolated pathogens was tested. The highly pathogenic strain (YV-St-033) was identified as Pseudomonas sp. by 16S rRNA gene sequencing. In phylogenetic analysis, the YV-St-033 strain was grouped with P. mosselii, P. putita, P. fluorescens, P. entomophila, and P. lecoglossicida. The results of the 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that the YV-St-033 strain shared the highest sequence identity (more than 99%) with the P. mosselii R10 strain. The mungbean lines of Yeungnam University germplasm were screened against the YV-St-033 strain. Based on the growth rate of the sprouts after 3 days of inoculation with the pathogen, the YV148 line was highly resistant to the pathogen. The remaining lines were either partially or fully infected. The highly resistant line YV 148 is suitable for future breeding programs due to their thin sprouts and fast growing nature.
