The VTSA vector was then applied into two sets of peptide quantitative structure-activity relationships or quantitative sequence-activity modelings (QSARs/QSAMs). Molded by genetic partial least squares (GPLS), support vector machine (SVM), and immune neural network (INN), good results were obtained. For the datasets of 58 angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors (ACEI) and 89 elastase substrate catalyzed kinetics (ESCK), the R 2, cross-validation R 2, and root mean square error of estimation (RMSEE) were as follows: ACEI, R cu 2 ?0.82, Q cu 2 ?0.77, E rmse?0.44 (GPLS+SVM); ESCK, R cu 2 ?0.84, Q cu 2 ?0.82, E rmse?0.20 (GPLS+INN), respectively.展开更多

Anastomosis study with a reference isolate confirmed that all the isolates belonged to R. solani. Significant variation was observed in sclerotial size, shape and distribution. Un-weighted pair group method with arithmetic mean dendrogram constructed based on the Gower's general similarity coefficient showed that these isolates were grouped into four clusters at the 0.68 similarity coefficent according to morphological characters. Cluster I was a major cluster consisting of 13 isolates, while clusters Ⅱ to Ⅳ consisted of 1 or 2 isolates. Analyses by variable number of tandem repeat and amplified fragment length polymorphism markers showed that the isolates were grouped into five and three clusters at a similarity coefficient of 0.64 and 0.69, respectively. Although most of the variability was found between isolates from different regions as expected, significant variation was observed within the isolates collected from similar agro-ecological regions. Our results suggest the presence of different races of R. solani within the same local geographic regions.展开更多
