Compared with the wheat parent, other 32 plants with 2n = 42 exhibited obvious phenotypic variation, but their com-ponent of rye chromosome could not be detected using the C-banding technique. In situ hybridization with a biotin-la-beled DNA probe was used to detect rye chromatin and to determine the insertion sites of rye segments in the wheat chromosomes. In 20 out of the 32 variant wheat plants, small segments of rye chromosomes were found being inserted into different wheat chromosomes and form small-segment-translocation (SS translocation). The physical mapping of the translocated small segments of rye chromosomes indicated that alien insertion could occur in both the terminal and intermediate regions of wheat chromosomes. The technique described appeared to be an effective means to induce SS translocation. The wide application of SS translocation in the study of molecular cytogenetics and plant breeding is also discussed.展开更多

The additive source method was employed to treat with the heat release of synthetic reaction in powder mixture at certain temperatures, and also to solve the momentum and heat transfer caused by the relative movement between laser beam and the specimen. Two different types of driving forces for flow were considered in the model, i.e., the buoyancy force and the surface tension gradient at the laser pool surface. The three-dimensional transient temperature field simulation program was developed being based upon the commercial software PHOENICS. The calculated and observed fusion boundaries were compared and very good agreement was obtained.展开更多
