This study was investigated to know the possible linkage relationship between blast resistance gene and plant height gene in rice. Two resistant varieties, Tadukan and Tetep were crossed with six susceptible semi-dwarf tester lines. Progenies derived from the crosses were inoculated with spray method at 3-4 leaf stage with blast races, C-8$^{+t}$ and T-2$^{+t}$. The results indicated that: (1) Resistance of Tadukan and Tetep to the C-8$^{+t}$ was controlled by a single dominant gene, respectively. (2) Resistance of Tadukan and Tetep to the T-2$^{+t}$ was expressed by complementary gene action between two dominant genes, respectively. (3) No linkage relationship was found between resistance gene and plant height gene of both Tadukan and Tetep when tested with C-8$^{+t}$ and T-2$^{+t}$, respectively.espectively.

Isothermal physical aging of a glass fiber/epoxy composite was examined at different aging temperatures ($T_a$) and degrees of conversion (monitored by the glass transition temperature, $T_g$) by means of the TBA torsion pendulum technique. The range of aging temperature was from 10 to $130^{\circ}C$ : the conversion was systematically changed from $T_g$=$76^{\circ}C$ to $T_g$=$177^{\circ}C$ (fully crosslinked). The effect of isothermal physical aging was manifested as perturbations of the modulus and mechanical loss vs. temperature in the vicinity of $T_a$ for all conversions. The rate of isothermal physical aging determined from the change of modulus with aging time at fixed aging temperature decreased and then increased with increasing conversion below T$_{a}$=9$0^{\circ}C$. There exists a superposition in aging rate vs. ($T_g$ -$T_a$) by shifting horizontally and vertically. This implies that the physical aging process is independent of the change of chemical structure as conversion proceeds. It has been found that water absorbed at the aging temperature below $70^{\circ}C$ during isothermal physical aging lowers the apparent aging rate. It is due to the absorbed water molecules forming strong polar interactions with hydroxyl group on network chain and reducing the segmental mobility during the physical aging.g.

Thermal oxidation and plasma enhanced chemical vapor deposition of tantalum oxide thin films on p-type (100) Si substrates were studied to examine the dielectric nature of T$a_2O_5$ as a Al/T$a_2O_5$/p-Si capacitor. Microstructure and dielectric properties of the capacitors were investigated by XRD, AES, high frequency C-V analyzer, I-V meter and TEM. XRD analysis showed that the structure of T$a_2O_5$ films were amorphous, but the films were crystallized to hexagonal $\delta$-T$a_2O_5$ by 65$0^{\circ}C$ thermal oxidation treatment. It was found that the stoichiometry of the films was more or less close to 2 : 5. Leakage current density and relative dielectric constant of thermal oxidation T$a_2O_5$ film at 60$0^{\circ}C$ was 5.0${ imes}10^{-6}$/A/c$m^2 and 31.5, respectively. In the case of PECVD T$a_2O_5$film deposited at 0.47W/c$m^2 they were 2.5${ imes}10^{-5}$/A/$ extrm{cm}^2$ and 24.0, respectively. The morphology of the films and interfaces were investigated by TEM.

A $C_0$-semigroup ${\tau}=(T_t)_{t{\geq}0}$ on a Banach space X is called subspace-supercyclic for a subspace M, if $\mathbb{C}Orb({\tau},x){\bigcap}M=\{{\lambda}T_tx\;:\;{\lambda}{\in}\mathbb{C},\;t{\geq}0\}{\bigcap}M$ is dense in M for a vector $x{\in}M$. In this paper we characterize the notion of subspace-supercyclic $C_0$-semigroup. At the same time, we also provide a subspace-supercyclicity criterion $C_0$-semigroup and offer two equivalent conditions of this criterion.

Let $[n]=\{1,2,{\ldots},n\}$. A set ${\mathbf{A}}=\{A_1,A_2,{\ldots},A_l\}$ is a minimal cover of [n] if ${\cup}_{1{\leq}i{\leq}l}A_i=[n]$ and $$\bigcup_{{1{\leq}i{\leq}l,}\\{i{\neq}j_0}}A_i{\neq}[n]\text{ for all }j_0{\in}[l]$$. Let ${\mathcal{C}}(n)$ denote the collection of all minimal covers of [n], and write $C_n={\mid}{\mathcal{C}}(n){\mid}$. Let ${\mathbf{A}}{\in}{\mathcal{C}}(n)$. An element $u{\in}[n]$ is critical in ${\mathbf{A}}$ if it appears exactly once in ${\mathbf{A}}$. Two minimal covers ${\mathbf{A}},{\mathbf{B}}{\in}{\mathcal{C}}(n)$ are said to be restricted t-intersecting if they share at least t sets each containing an element which is critical in both ${\mathbf{A}}$ and ${\mathbf{B}}$. A family ${\mathcal{A}}{\subseteq}{\mathcal{C}}(n)$ is said to be restricted t-intersecting if every pair of distinct elements in ${\mathcal{A}}$ are restricted t-intersecting. In this paper, we prove that there exists a constant $n_0=n_0(t)$ depending on t, such that for all $n{\geq}n_0$, if ${\mathcal{A}}{\subseteq}{\mathcal{C}}(n)$ is restricted t-intersecting, then ${\mid}{\mathcal{A}}{\mid}{\leq}{\mathcal{C}}_{n-t}$. Moreover, the bound is attained if and only if ${\mathcal{A}}$ is isomorphic to the family ${\mathcal{D}}_0(t)$ consisting of all minimal covers which contain the singleton parts $\{1\},{\ldots},\{t\}$. A similar result also holds for restricted r-cross intersecting families of minimal covers.

A Gram-positive, non-motile, and non-spore-forming lactic acid bacterium, designated as BK2^T, was isolated from kimchi, a Korean traditional fermented vegetable food, and the taxonomic characteristics of strain BK2^T, along with strain LMG 11983, were analyzed. Both strains optimally grew at 30℃, pH 7.0, and 1.0% NaCl. Cells of both strains were heterofermentative and facultatively anaerobic rods, demonstrating negative reactions for catalase and oxidase. Major fatty acids (>10%) identified in both strains were C_18:1 ω9c, C_16:0, and summed feature 7 (comprising C_19:1 ω6c and/or C_19:1 ω7c). The genomic DNA G+C contents of both strains were 44.7 mol%. The 16S rRNA gene sequence similarity (99.9%), average nucleotide identity (ANI; 99.9%), and digital DNA-DNA hybridization (dDDH; 99.7%) value between strains BK2^T and LMG 11983 indicated that they are different strains of the same species. Strain BK2^T was most closely related to Weissella confusa JCM 1093^T and Weissella cibaria LMG 17699^T, with 100% and 99.4% 16S rRNA gene sequence similarities, respectively. However, based on the ANI and dDDH values (92.3% and 48.1% with W. confusa, and 78.4% and 23.5% with W. cibaria), it was evident that strain BK2^T represents a distinct species separate from W. confusa and W. cibaria. Based on phylogenetic, phenotypic, and chemotaxonomic features, strains BK2^T and LMG 11983 represent a novel species of the genus Weissella, for which the name Weissella fermenti sp. nov. is proposed. The type of strain is BK2^T (=KACC 22833^T=JCM 35750^T).

This research was conducted to evaluate the effects of cooking conditions on quality characteristics of Soo-Yuk, a traditional Korean food. The cooking conditions were as follows: boiled until the core temperature of a sample in $20^{\circ}C$ cold water reached at $75^{\circ}C$ (T1); boiled until the core temperature of a sample in $90^{\circ}C$ boiling water reached at $75^{\circ}C$ (T2); and boiled with sample from $20^{\circ}C$ to $100^{\circ}C$ and kept at $98^{\circ}C$ for 25 min (T3, Korean traditional method). The sample cooked at $90^{\circ}C$ water (T2) had the fast cooking time, and the highest cooking yield and moisture content. Soo-yuk boiled in $100^{\circ}C$ water (T3) showed the longest cooking time, the lowest cooking yield and moisture content, and the highest shear force. The instrumental color showed a significant difference among the cooking conditions. The sarcomere length of soo-yuk boiled in $100^{\circ}C$ water (T3) was the shortest, but the myofibrillar fragmentation index and thiamine content of the sample cooked at $90^{\circ}C$ (T2) were the highest. In sensory evaluation, the evaluation of soo-yuk boiled in $98^{\circ}C$ water (T3) was of superior flavor and overall acceptability.

The thermal fatigue behavior of alumina ceramics was investigated by water quenching method. Single-quench thermal shock tests were performed to decide the critical thermal shock temperature difference ($\Delta$Tc) which was found to be 225$^{\circ}C$ Cyclic thermal shock fatigue tests were performed at temperature diff-erences of 175$^{\circ}C$, 187$^{\circ}C$ and 200$^{\circ}C$ respectively. After cyclic thermal shock fatigue test the distributions of retained strength and crack were observed. Retained strength was measured by four point bending method and crack observation method bydye penetration. In terms of the retained strength distribution the critical number of thermal shock cycles(Nc) were 7 for $\Delta$T=200$^{\circ}C$, 35 for $\Delta$T=187$^{\circ}C$ and 180for $\Delta$T=175$^{\circ}C$ respec-tively. In terms of the crack observation the critical number of thermal shock cycles were 5 for $\Delta$T==200$^{\circ}C$ 20 for $\Delta$T==187$^{\circ}C$ and 150 for $\Delta$T=175$^{\circ}C$ respectively. The difference of Nc investigated by two different methods is due to the formation of the longitudinal cracks which had no effect on the four point bending strength. Therefore the thermal fatigue behavior of alumina ceramics could be more accurately described by the crack observation method than the retained strength measurement method.

Background: Genetic and environmental factors play important roles in pathogenesis of digestive tract cancers like those in the esophagus, stomach and colorectum. Folate deficiency and methylenetetrahydrofolate reductase (MTHFR) as an important enzyme of folate and methionine metabolism are considered crucial for DNA synthesis and methylation. MTHFR variants may cause genomic hypomethylation, which may lead to the development of cancer, and MTHFR gene polymorphisms (especially C677T and A1298C) are known to influence predispositions for cancer development. Several case control association studies of MTHFR C677T polymorphisms and colorectal cancer (CRC) have been reported in different populations with contrasting results, possibly reflecting inadequate statistical power. Aim: The present meta-analysis was conducted to investigate the association between the C677T polymorphism and the risk of colorectal cancer. Materials and Methods: A literature search of the PubMed, Google Scholar, Springer link and Elsevier databases was carried out for potential relevant articles. Pooled odds ratio (OR) with corresponding 95 % confidence interval (95 % CI) was calculated to assess the association of MTHFR C677T with the susceptibility to CRC. Cochran's Q statistic and the inconsistency index (I2) were used to check study heterogeneity. Egger's test and funnel plots were applied to assess publication bias. All statistical analyses were conducted by with MetaAnalyst and MIX version 1.7. Results: Thirty four case-control studies involving a total of 9,143 cases and 11,357 controls were retrieved according to the inclusion criteria. Overall, no significant association was found between the MTHFR C677T polymorphism and colorectal cancer in Asian populations (for T vs. C: OR=1.03; 95% CI= 0.92-1.5; p= 0.64; for TT vs CC: OR=0.88; 95%CI= 0.74-1.04; p= 0.04; for CT vs. CC: OR = 1.02; 95%CI= 0.93-1.12; p=0.59; for TT+ CT vs. CC: OR=1.07; 95%CI= 0.94-1.22; p=0.87). Conclusions: Evidence from the current meta-analysis indicated that the C677T polymorphism is not associated with CRC risk in Asian populations. Further investigations are needed to offer better insight into any role of this polymorphism in colorectal carcinogenesis.
