| 1 | Stable classi?cation with limited sample: transferring a 30-m resolution sample set collected in 2015 to mapping 10-m resolution global land cover in 2017显示文摘As the world strives to reduce the impact of population growth, urbanization, agricultural expansion, and climate change on food security, energy and water shortage, resource over-exploration, biodiversity loss, environmental pollution, and ultimately human health, timely and higher resolution land cover information is urgently needed to achieve the sustainable development goals of the United Nations. | Peng Gong Han Liu Meinan Zhang Congcong Li Jie Wang Huabing Huang Nicholas Clinton Luyan Ji Wenyu Li Yuqi Bai Bin Chen Bing Xu Zhiliang Zhu Cui Yuan Hoi Ping Suen Jing Guo Nan Xu Weijia Li Yuanyuan Zhao Jun Yang Chaoqing Yu Xi Wang Haohuan Fu Le Yu Iryna Dronova Fengming Hui Xiao Cheng Xueli Shi Fengjin Xiao Qiufeng Liu Lianchun Song | 2019 | Science Bulletin2019,64,6: | 166 |
| 2 | The first all-season sample set for mapping global land cover with Landsat-8 data显示文摘We report the world's first all-season training and validation sample sets for global land cover classification with Landsat-8 data.Prior to this,such samples were only available at a single date primarily from the growing season.It is unknown how much limitation such a single-date sample has to mapping global land cover in other seasons of the year.To answer this question,we selected available Landsat-8 images from four seasons and collected training and validation samples from them.We compared the performances of training samples in different seasons using Random Forest algorithm.We found that the use of training samples from any individual season would result in the best overall classification accuracy when validated by samples in the same season.The global overall accuracy from combined best seasonal results was 67.2% when classifying the 11 Level-1 classes in the Finer Resolution Observation and Monitoring of Global Land Cover(FROM-GLC) classification system.The use of training samples from all seasons(named all-season training sample set hereafter) produced an overall accuracy of 67.0%.We also tested classification within 10° latitude 60° longitude zones using all-season training subsample within each zone and obtained an overall accuracy of 70.2%.This indicates that properly grouped subsamples in space can help improve classification accuracies.All the results in this study seem to suggest that it is possible to use an all-season training sample set to reach global optimality with universal applicability in classifying images acquired at any time of a year for global land cover mapping. | Congcong Li Peng Gong Jie Wang Zhiliang Zhu Gregory S.

| 3 | Contrasting elevational diversity patterns for soil bacteria between two ecosystems divided by the treeline显示文摘Above- and below-ground organisms are closely linked, but how elevational distribution pattern of soil microbes shifting across the treeline still remains unknown. Sampling of 140 plots with transect, we herein investigated soil bacterial distribution pattern from a temperate forest up to a subalpine meadow along an elevational gradient using Illumina sequencing. Our results revealed distinct elevational patterns of bacterial diversity above and below the treeline in responding to changes in soil conditions:a hollow elevational pattern in the forest(correlated with soil temperature, pH, and C:N ratio) and a significantly decreasing pattern in the meadow(correlated with soil pH, and available phosphorus). The bacterial community structure was also distinct between the forest and meadow, relating to soil pH in the forest and soil temperature in the meadow. Soil bacteria did not follow the distribution pattern of herb diversity, but bacterial community structure could be predicted by herb community composition. These results suggest that plant communities have an important influence on soil characteristics, and thus change the elevational distribution of soil bacteria. Our findings are useful for future assessments of climate change impacts on microbial community. | Guixiang Li Guorui Xu Congcong Shen Yong Tang Yuxin Zhang Keming Ma | 2016 | Science China(Life Sciences)2016,59,11: | 9 |
| 4 | Genetic bases of source-,sink-,and yield-related traits revealed by genome-wide association study in Xian rice显示文摘The source-sink relationship determines the ultimate grain yield.We investigated the genetic basis of the relationship between source and sink and yield potential in rice.In two environments,we identified quantitative trait loci(QTL)associated with sink capacity(total spikelet number per panicle and thousand-grain weight),source leaf(flag leaf length,flag leaf width and flag leaf area),source-sink relationship(total spikelet number to flag leaf area ratio)and yield-related traits(filled grain number per panicle,panicle number per plant,grain yield per plant,biomass per plant,and harvest index)by genome-wide association analysis using 272 Xian(indica)accessions.The panel showed substantial variation for all traits in the two environments and revealed complex phenotypic correlations.A total of 70 QTL influencing the 11 traits were identified using 469,377 high-quality SNP markers.Five QTL were detected consistently in four chromosomal regions in both environments.Five QTL clusters simultaneously affected source,sink,source–sink relationship,and grain yield traits,probably explaining the genetic basis of significant correlations of grain yield with source and sink traits.We selected 24 candidate genes in the four consistent QTL regions by identifying linkage disequilibrium(LD)blocks associated with significant SNPs and performing haplotype analysis.The genes included one cloned gene(NOG1)and three newly identified QTL(qHI6,qTGW7,and qFLA8).These results provide a theoretical basis for high-yield rice breeding by increasing and balancing source–sink relationships using marker-assisted selection. | Yun Wang Yunlong Pang Kai Chen Laiyuan Zhai Congcong Shen Shu Wang Jianlong Xu | 2020 | The Crop Journal2020,8,1: | 8 |
| 5 | Genetic dissection of rice appearance quality and cooked rice elongation by genome-wide association study显示文摘Appearance and cooked rice elongation are key quality traits of rice. Although some QTL for these traits have been identified, understanding of the genetic relationship between them remains limited. In the present study, large phenotypic variation was observed in 760 accessions from the 3 K Rice Genomes Project for both appearance quality and cooked rice elongation. Most component traits of appearance quality and cooked rice elongation showed significant pairwise correlations, but a low correlation was found between appearance quality and cooked rice elongation. A genome-wide association study identified 74 QTL distributed on all 12 chromosomes for grain length, grain width, length to width ratio, degree of endosperm with chalkiness, rice elongation difference, and elongation index. Thirteen regions containing QTL stably expressed in multiple environments and/or exerting pleiotropic effects on multiple traits were detected. By gene-based association analysis and haplotype analysis, 46 candidate genes, including five cloned genes, and 49 favorable alleles were identified for these 13 QTL. The effect of the candidate gene Wx on rice elongation difference was validated by a transgenic strategy. These results shed light on the genetic bases of appearance quality and cooked rice elongation and provide gene resources for improving rice quality by molecular breeding. | Xianjin Qiu Jing Yang Fan Zhang Yanan Niu Xiuqing Zhao Congcong Shen Kai Chen Sheng Teng Jianlong Xu | 2021 | The Crop Journal2021,9,6: | 5 |
| 6 | Organic-semiconductor: Polymer-electret blends for high-performance transistors显示文摘As compared with polymer semiconductors, solution-processed small-moleculesemiconductors usually have poorer film-formation properties, which induceswide variations in device performance in terms of mobility and threshold voltage,thus severely limiting their commercial applications. In this work, we propose aneasily accessible method to improve the performance and reduce the variabilityof small-molecule organic field-effect transistors (OFETs) by blending organicsemiconductors with an insulator polymer, which is subsequently post-treatedby gate stress to generate an electret. By blending the organic semiconductor2,7-didodecyl[1]benzothieno[3,2-b][1]benzothiophene (C12-BTBT) with the insulatorpolystyrene, uniform transport layers with vertically phase segregated morphologyare obtained, from which the mobility and threshold voltage of OFETs are largelymanipulated. The OFETs exhibit field-effect mobilities as high as 7.5 cm2-V-l-s-1with an on/off ratio exceeding 106 in ambient conditions. This double-layerstructure provides an appropriate architecture for applying gate-stress to injectcharges into the insulating layer, forming an electret. The generation of theelectret is thermally accelerated and thus can be easily realized under moderategate-stress at elevated temperature (e.g., 60 ℃). After cooling, the electret layer servesas a floating-gate, which not only continuously tunes the threshold voltage andfield-effect mobility, but also helps minimize the contact resistances and optimizethe subthreshold swing. As an application of this method, a digital inverter isbuilt and its performance is optimized via in situ tuning of its individual transistors. | Peng Wei Shengtao Li Dongfan Li Han Yu Xudong Wang Congcong Xu Yaodong Yang Laju Bu Guanghao Lu | 2018 | Nano Research2018,11,11: | 5 |
| 7 | N-Type Mg_(3)Sb_(2-x)Bi_(x) Alloys as Promising Thermoelectric Materials显示文摘N-type Mg_(3)Sb_(2-x)Bi_(x) alloys have been extensively studied in recent years due to their significantly enhanced thermoelectric figure of merit(zT),thus promoting them as potential candidates for waste heat recovery and cooling applications.In this review,the effects resulting from alloying Mg_(3)Bi_(2) with Mg_(3)Sb_(2),including narrowed bandgap,decreased effective mass,and increased carrier mobility,are summarized.Subsequently,defect-controlled electrical properties in n-type Mg_(3)Sb_(2-x)Bi_(x) are revealed.On one hand,manipulation of intrinsic and extrinsic defects can achieve optimal carrier concentration.On the other hand,Mg vacancies dominate carrier-scattering mechanisms(ionized impurity scattering and grain boundary scattering).Both aspects are discussed for Mg_(3)Sb_(2-x)Bi_(x) thermoelectric materials.Finally,we review the present status of,and future outlook for,these materials in power generation and cooling applications. | Hongjing Shang Zhongxin Liang Congcong Xu Jun Mao Hongwei Gu Fazhu Ding Zhifeng Ren | 2020 | Research2020,,1: | 4 |
| 8 | Effects of acupuncture on the relationship between cerebral hemodynamics and arterial blood pressure in patients with hypertension显示文摘The present study aimed to investigate the effect of an auricular acupuncture intervention on the relationship between changes in oxyhemoglobin concentration(Δ[O2Hb])and arterial blood pressure(ABP).The cerebral oxygenation signals in the bilateral prefrontal cortex(PFC),sensorimotor cortex(SMC),and temporal lobe cortex(TLC)of 15 patients with hypertension were measured by a 24-channel functional near-infrared spectroscopy(fNIRS)device before(State_R)and after(State_AT)the auricular acupuncture intervention.Coupling strength was used to quantitatively evaluate the strength of the couplings between ABP andΔ[O2Hb]in low-frequency oscillations(LF,0.07–0.2 Hz)and very-low-frequency oscillations(VLF,0.02–0.07 Hz).Results showed that the changes in wavelet amplitudes in the LF and VLF intervals did not exhibit significant differences after auricular acupuncture.The coupling strength from ABP toΔ[O2Hb]was significantly lower in the LF range after auricular acupuncture in the bilateral PFC,SMC,and TLC(p<0.0083).Additionally,the coupling strength from ABP toΔ[O2Hb]in the VLF range was significantly lower in the bilateral PFC in State_AT than in State_R(p<0.0083).These results indicated that fNIRS together with ABP can effectively evaluate cerebral hemodynamic responses to interventions and is therefore capable of guiding more individualized acupuncture strategies.The auricular acupuncture intervention improved hemodynamic responses in patients suffering from hypertension. | Wenhao Li Hongmei Liu Congcong Huo Gongcheng Xu Tengyu Zhang Zengyong Li | 2021 | Medicine in Novel Technology and Devices2021,,4: | 4 |
| 9 | Phase evolution, microstructure, electric properties of (Ba1–xBi0.67xNa0.33x)(Ti1–xBi0.33xSn0.67x)O3 ceramics显示文摘(Ba1–xBi0.67xNa0.33x)(Ti1–xBi0.33xSn0.67x)O3(abbreviated as BBNTBS,0.02≤x≤0.12)ceramics were fabricated via a traditional solid state reaction method.The phase transition of BBNTBS from tetragonal to pseudo cubic is demonstrated by XRD and Raman spectra.The BBNTBS(x=0.1)ceramics have decent properties with a highεr(~2250),smallΔε/ε25℃ values of±15%over a wide temperature range from–58 to 171℃,and low tanδ≤0.02 from 10 to 200℃.The basic mechanisms of conduction and relaxation processes in the high temperature region were thermal activation,and oxygen vacancies might be the ionic charge transport carriers.Meanwhile,BBNTBS(x=0.1)exhibited decent energy storage density(Jd=0.58 J/cm3)and excellent thermal stability(the variation of Jd is less than 3% in the temperature range of 25–120℃),which could be a potential candidate for high energy density capacitors. | Xiuli CHEN Xu LI Huanfu ZHOU Jie SUN Xiaoxia LI Xiao YAN Congcong SUN Junpeng SHI | 2019 | Journal of Advanced Ceramics2019,8,3: | 4 |

| 11 | Challenges and strategies in high-accuracy manufacturing of the world’s largest SiC aspheric mirror显示文摘In the process of manufacturing the world’s largest silicon carbide(SiC)aspheric mirror,the primary difficulties are mirror blank preparation,asphere fabrication,and testing,as well as cladding and coating.Specifically,the challenges include the homogeneity of the complicated structure casting,accuracy and efficiency of the fabrication process,print-through effect,fidelity and precision of test procedure,stress and denseness of cladding process,the dynamic range of interferometric measurement,and air turbulence error due to the long optical path.To break through such a barrier of difficulties,we proposed the water-soluble room temperature vanishing mold and gel casting technology,homogeneous microstructure reaction-formed joint technology,nano-accuracy efficient compound fabrication,gravity unloading technology,high-denseness low-defect physical vapor deposition(PVD)Si-cladding technology,test data fusion method,and time-domain averaging method,etc.Based on the proposed technologies and methods,we have accomplished the world’s largest SiC aspheric mirror with a size of φ4.03 m.The impressive performance of the SiC aspheric mirror is validated by the characteristics of the fabricated SiC aspheric mirror.The aerial density of the SiC blank is less than 120 kg/m^(2),surface shape test accuracy is better than 6 nm RMS,thickness inhomogeneity of the cladding layer is less than 5%,and the final surface figure error and roughness are 15.2 nm RMS and 0.8 nm RMS,respectively. | Xuejun Zhang Haixiang Hu Xiaokun Wang Xiao Luo Ge Zhang Wenxing Zhao Xiaoyi Wang Zhenyu Liu Ling Xiong Erhui Qi Congcong Cui Yanchao Wang Yingjie Li Xu Wang Longxiang Li Yang Bai Qiang Cheng Zhiyu Zhang Ruigang Li Wa Tang Xuefeng Zeng Weijie Deng Feng Zhang | 2022 | Light(Science & Applications)2022,11,12: | 3 |
| 12 | Photo-controlled release of paclitaxel and model drugs from RNA pyramids显示文摘Stimuli-resp on sive release of drugs from a nano carrier in spatial-,temporal-,and dosage-controlled fashi ons is of great interest in the pharmaceutical industry.Paclitaxel is one of the most effective and popular chemotherapeutic drugs against a number of cancers such as metastatic or non metastatic breast can cer,non-small cell lung can cer,refractory ovaria n cancer,AIDS-related Kaposi's sarcoma,and head and neck can cers.Here,by taki ng the adva ntage of RNA nanotechno logy in biomedical and material scie nee,we developed a three-dime nsional pyramid-shaped RNA nanocage for a photocontrolled release of cargo,using paclitaxel as a model drug.The light-triggered release of paclitaxel or fluorophore Cy5 was achieved by incorporation of photocleavable spacers into the RNA nanoparticles.Upon irradiation with ultraviolet light,cargos were rapidly released(within 5 min).In vitro treatment of breast can cer cells with the RNA nano particles harbori ng photocleavable paclitaxel showed higher cytotoxicity as compared to RNA nanoparticles without the photocleavable spacer.The methodology provides proof of con cept for the applicati on of the light-triggered con trolled release of drugs from RNA nano cages. | Congcong Xu Hui Li Kaiming Zhang Daniel W.Binzel Hongran Yin Wah Chiu Peixuan Guo | 2019 | Nano Research2019,12,1: | 3 |

| 14 | Dynamic microstructure evolution and mechanical properties of dilute Mg-Al-Ca-Mn alloy during hot rolling显示文摘The dynamic microstructure and texture of dilute Mg-0.50Al-0.71Ca-0.33Mn(wt.%) during hot rolling at two slab temperatures were investigated by electron backscattered diffraction(EBSD) and high resolution transmission electron microscopy(HRTEM). The results show that the development of the rolling microstructures is to first form {10–12} extension twins in the original grains, thereby forming the extension-twinned regions, and then to further form {10–11}-{10–12} double twins and kinks in the extension-twinned regions, and finally to form continuous dynamic recrystallized(continuous DRXed)grains in the double twins and the cross parts of the shear-deformed coarse extension-twinned regions.These extension twins, double twins and kinks show a decisive effect on the formation of rolling texture.The number of {10–11}-{10–12} double twins and resultant the continuous DRX process are strongly affected by the rolling slab temperature and the reduction thickness per pass. By optimizing the rolling conditions, texture and microstructures of the multi-pass rolled Mg-Al-Ca-Mn alloy sheets are successfully modified. Although the total alloy content is only 1.5 wt.%, these Mg-Al-Ca-Mn alloy sheets show much higher strength than the commercial Mg-3Al-1 Zn(wt.%)(AZ31B) sheet. | Shiwei Xu Congcong Zhu Zhanhong Lin Chen Jin S.Kamado K.Oh-ishi Yun Qin | 2022 | Journal of Materials Science & Technology2022,,34: | 2 |
| 15 | Association of assisted reproductive technology, germline de novo mutations and congenital heart defects in a prospective birth cohort study显示文摘Emerging evidence suggests that children conceived through assisted reproductive technology(ART)have a higher risk of congenital heart defects(CHDs)even when there is no family history.De novo mutation(DNM)is a well-known cause of sporadic congenital diseases;however,whether ART procedures increase the number of germline DNM(gDNM)has not yet been well studied.Here,we performed whole-genome sequencing of 1137 individuals from 160 families conceived through ART and 205 families conceived spontaneously.Children conceived via ART carried 4.59 more gDNMs than children conceived spontaneously,including 332 paternal and 1.26 maternal DNMs,after correcting for parental age at conception,cigarette smoking,alcohol drinking,and exercise behaviors.Paternal DNMs in offspring conceived via ART are characterized by C>T substitutions at CpG sites,which potentially affect protein-coding genes and are significantly associated with the increased risk of CHD.In addition,the accumulation of non-coding functional mutations was independently associated with CHD and 87.9% of the mutations were originated from the father.Among ART offspring,infertility of the father was associated with elevated paternal DNMs;usage of both recombinant and urinary follicle-stimulating hormone and high-dosage human chorionic gonadotropin trigger was associated with an increase of maternal DNMs.In sum,the increased gDNMs in offspring conceived by ART were primarily originated from fathers,indicating that ART itself may not be a major reason for the accumulation of gDNMs.Our findings emphasize the importance of evaluating the germline status of the fathers in families with the use of ART. | Cheng Wang Hong Lv Xiufeng Ling Hong Li Feiyang Diao Juncheng Dai Jiangbo Du Ting Chen Qi Xi Yang Zhao Kun Zhou Bo Xu Xiumei Han Xiaoyu Liu Meijuan Peng Congcong Chen Shiyao Tao Lei Huang Cong Liu Mingyang Wen Yangqian Jiang Tao Jiang Chuncheng Lu Wei Wu Di Wu Minjian Chen Yuan Lin Xuejiang Guo Ran Huo Jiayin Liu Hongxia Ma Guangfu Jin Yankai Xia Jiahao Sha Hongbing Shen Zhibin Hu | 2021 | Cell Research2021,31,8: | 2 |
| 16 | High energy storage density and power density achieved simultaneously in NaNbO_(3)-based lead-free ceramics via antiferroelectricity enhancement显示文摘High-performance lead-free dielectric ceramics with simultaneously high energy storage density and power density are in high demanded for pulse power systems.To realize excellent energy-storage characteristics,a strategy to enhance antiferroelectricity and construct a local random field simultaneously was proposed in this study.Based on the above strategy,a series of(1-x)NaNbO_(3)-xBi(Ni_(1/2)Sn_(1/2))O3[xBNS,x=0.05,0.10,0.15,0.20,and 0.22]solid solutions were designed and fabricated.An ultrahigh energy storage density(Utotal)of 7.35 J/cm^(3),and recoverable energy density(Urec)of 5.00 J/cm^(3) were achieved in the 0.10BNS ceramics.In addition,an adequate stability of energy storage properties at a range of temperatures(20e140℃),frequencies(1e100 Hz),and fatigue test durations(1e1-10^(4) cycles)were realized in 0.10BNS ceramics.0.10BNS ceramics displayed a high current density of 1005 A/cm2,an ultrahigh power density of 100.5 MW/cm^(3,)and an ultrashort discharge time of 46.5 ns?This remarkable performance not only justified our strategy but also confirmed 0.10BNS ceramics as a promising candidate for energy storage. | Xiaoyan Dong Xu Li Xiuli Chen Hongyun Chen Congcong Sun Junpeng Shi Feihong Pang Huanfu Zhou | 2021 | Journal of Materiomics2021,7,3: | 2 |

| 18 | Ligand-based substituent-anchoring design of selective receptor-interacting protein kinase 1 necroptosis inhibitors for ulcerative colitis therapy显示文摘Receptor-interacting protein(RIP)kinase 1 is involved in immune-mediated inflammatory diseases including ulcerative colitis(UC)by regulating necroptosis and inflammation.Our group previously identified TAK-632(5)as an effective necroptosis inhibitor by dual-targeting RIP1 and RIP3.In this study,using ligand-based substituent-anchoring design strategy,we focused on the benzothiazole ring to obtain a series of TAK-632 analogues showing significantly improving on the anti-necroptosis activity and RIP1 selectivity over RIP3.Among them,a conformational constrained fluorine-substituted derivative(25)exhibited 333-fold selectivity for RIP1(K_(d)= 15 nmol/L)than RIP3(K_(d)>5000 nmol/L).This compound showed highly potent activity against cell necroptosis(EC_(50)=8 nmol/L)and systemic inflammatory response syndrome(SIRS)induced by TNF-α in vivo.Especially,it was able to exhibit remarkable anti-inflammatory treatment efficacy in a DSS-induced mouse model of UC.Taken together,the highly potent,selective,orally active anti-necroptosis inhibitor represents promising candidate for clinical treatment of UC. | Jing Zhu Meng Xin Congcong Xu Yuan He Wannian Zhang Zhibin Wang Chunlin Zhuang | 2021 | Acta Pharmaceutica Sinica B2021,11,10: | 1 |
| 19 | Endothelial Notch activation promotes neutrophil transmigration via downregulating endomucin to aggravate hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury显示文摘Inflammatory leukocytes infiltration is orchestrated by mechanisms involving chemokines,selectins,addressins and other adhesion molecules derived from endothelial cells(ECs),but how they respond to inflammatory cues and coordinate leukocyte transmigration remain elusive.In this study,using hepatic ischemia/reperfusion injury(HIRI)as a model,we identified that endothelial Notch activation was rapidly and dynamically induced in liver sinusoidal endothelial cells(LSECs)in acute inflammation.In mice with EC-specific Notch activation(NICeCA),HIRI induced exacerbated liver damage.Consistently,endothelial Notch activation enhanced neutrophil infiltration and tumor necrosis factor(TNF)-αexpression in HIRI.Transcriptome analysis and further qRT-PCR as well as immunofluorescence indicated that endomucin(EMCN),a negative regulator of leukocyte adhesion,was downregulated in LSECs from NICeCA mice.EMCN was downregulated during HIRI in wild-type mice and in vitro cultured ECs insulted by hypoxia/re-oxygenation injury.Notch activation in ECs led to increased neutrophil adhesion and transendothelial migration,which was abrogated by EMCN overexpression in vitro.In mice deficient of RBPj,the integrative transcription factor of canonical Notch signaling,although overwhelming sinusoidal malformation aggravated HIRI,the expression of EMCN was upregulated;and pharmaceutical Notch blockade in vitro also upregulated EMCN and inhibited transendothelial migration of neutrophils.The Notch activation-exaggerated HIRI was compromised by blocking LFA-1,which mediated leukocyte adherence by associating with EMCN.Therefore,endothelial Notch signaling controls neutrophil transmigration via EMCN to modulate acute inflammation in HIRI. | Peiran Zhang Kangyi Yue Xinli Liu Xianchun Yan Ziyan Yang Juanli Duan Congcong Xia Xinyuan Xu Mei Zhang Liang Liang Lin Wang Hua Han | 2020 | Science China(Life Sciences)2020,63,3: | 1 |
| 20 | Genetic mechanism of heterosis for rice milling and appearance quality in an elite rice hybrid显示文摘Development of hybrid rice with high yield and grain quality is a goal of rice breeding.To investigate the genetic mechanism of heterosis for rice milling and appearance quality in indica/xian rice,QTL mapping was conducted using 1061 recombinant inbred lines(RILs)derived from a cross of the xian rice cultivars Quan 9311B(Q9311B)and Wu-shan-si-miao(WSSM),and a backcross F_(1)(BC_(1)F_(1)) population developed by crossing the RILs with Quan 9311A(Q9311A),combined with phenotyping in two environments.The F_(1) hybrid(Q9311A×WSSM)showed various degrees of heterosis for milling and appearance quality.A total of 142 main-effect QTL(M-QTL)and 407 pairs of epistatic QTL(E-QTL)were identified for five milling and appearance quality traits and grain yield per plant(GYP)in the RIL,BC_(1)F_(1) and mid-parental heterosis(H_(MP)) populations.Differential detection of QTL in three populations revealed that most additive loci detected in the RILs did not show heterotic effects,but some of them did contribute to BC_(1)F_(1) trait performance.Unlike heterosis of GYP,single-locus overdominance and epistasis were the main contributors to heterosis for milling and appearance quality.Epistasis contributed more to the heterosis for milling quality than to that for appearance quality.Three(four)QTL regions harboring opposite(consistent)directions of favorable allele effects for GYP and grain quality were identified,indicating the presence of partial genetic overlaps between GYP and grain quality.Three strategies are proposed to develop hybrid rice with high yield and good grain quality:1)pyramiding favorable alleles with consistent directions of gene effects for GYP and grain quality at the M-QTL on different chromosomes;2)introgressing favorable alleles for GYP and grain quality into the parents and then pyramiding and fixing these additive effects in hybrids;and 3)pyramiding overdominant and dominant loci and minimizing or eliminating underdominant loci from the parents. | Hui You Sundus Zafar Fan Zhang Shuangbing Zhu Kai Chen Congcong Shen Xiuqin Zhao Wenzhong Zhang Jianlong Xu | 2022 | The Crop Journal2022,10,6: | 1 |
