Genomic insights into the genetic basis of the seed size and weight revealed by the Chinese peanut key landraces

Key message: A candidate gene exhibiting pleiotropic effect on twelve different seed size and weight traits was identified through a combination of evidence from population genetic selection, GWAS, earlier QTL studies, transcriptome analysis, and transgenic analyses. Abstract: Peanut is an important oilseed crop. Seed weight and size significantly impact yield, leading to the identification of num

Non-linear Relationships Between the Built Environment and Walking Frequency Among Older Adults in Zhongshan, China

Aim: Promoting walking activity is an effective way to improve the health of older adults. Walking frequency is a critical component of walking behavior and an essential determinant of daily walking levels. To decipher the association between the built environment and walking frequency among older adults, this study's aims are as follows: (1) to empirically test whether non-linear relationships be

Characteristic value of the modulus of elasticity (MOE) for natural and planted larch in northeast China

The density and modulus of elasticity (MOE) distribution can provide information on the effectiveness of parametric and non-parametric methods in calculating the characteristic value of MOE. In this study, we aim to determine the optimal distribution model of the actual measured data of the lumber. We also estimate the lumber’s MOE characteristic value and compare the difference in density and MOE

Impact of Spatiotemporal Rainfall Distribution and Underlying Surface Changes on Flood Processes in Meijiang River Basin, China

This study reports on the impact of rainfall patterns and land surface changes on flood dynamics in the Meijiang River Basin, located in the upper reaches of the Ganjiang River. We formulated a range of rainfall patterns and spatial distribution scenarios and employed the MIKE SHE model to evaluate variations in flood volume, flood peak, and the timing of flood peaks. We found that under comparabl

Decision Support System in Hydrological Modeling - A case study in China

Generally speaking, Computer based numerical hydrological models have been playing a very central role during the last decades in dealing with water resources related problems. Various kinds of conceptual, physical and stochastical models have been developed. Perhaps the most important contribution of those models is the ability of simplifying and schematizing a complex problem in the nature and s
