在盐胁迫下外源维生素浸种对小麦发芽及幼苗生长的影响

维生素(Vitamin)又称维他命，为“万年青”产品，是维持人体生命健康必需的一类低分子有机化合物质。维生素对人体健康的作用人们研究很多, 维生素可以增强人体对感染的抵抗力，降低出生缺陷及降低癌症和心脏病发病率等，一旦缺乏，肌体代谢就会失去平衡，免疫力下降，各种疾病，病毒就会趁虚而入；而维生素对作物影响的研究却很少。目前为止，尚无对用维生素浸种的方法来研究外源维生素是否对小麦种子萌发及幼苗生长起调节作用的报道，且对其在小麦抗逆性方面影响的研究甚少，对盐的胁迫抗性研究尚未有人报道。小麦（Triticum aestivum L.）属于拒盐的淡土性作物。盐害不利于小麦生长，严重影响小麦的产量和品质。本研究采用4 种不同维生素VB1、VC、VB6、VPP，分别对供试小麦品种川育12（红皮）、川育16（白皮）小麦浸种后，在一般自然条件下和逆境（盐胁迫条件）下，进行试验。探讨在正常情况下与在不同盐浓度条件下，各维生素及盐浓度对小麦发芽及幼苗生长的影响，并且比较两种不同皮色的小麦在相同盐胁迫条件下的差异表现，同时研究维生素处理的特异性，且哪种维生素对盐害缓解作用最佳。研究结果表明：在无盐胁迫（自然）条件下，对用4 种不同维生素VB1、VC、VB6、VPP 浸种小麦川育12、川育16 后的种子萌发及幼苗生长（幼苗的根长、根重、苗高、苗鲜重）的研究结果表明：4 种外源维生素浸种均对小麦发芽有调节作用，都能提高其最终发芽率。但是提高幅度有所差异。用VB6 浸种后的小麦提高幅度最多，VC 次之，VPP 提高幅度最小。同时，4 种外源维生素浸种对小麦种子的出芽速度及芽后长势也有一定的影响。VB6、VC 处理的小麦种子出芽速度最快，萌发后长势最好；VB1 出芽速度相对较慢，VPP 最慢,但都大于对照；VB1 处理长势略高于对照，VPP 处理的小麦长势则低于对照。从整体来看，VB6、VC处理促进效应明显， VB1 次之，而VPP 在某些方面无效甚至产生负效应。此外，相同的维生素处理对不同的品种的种子萌发、生长效果也存在差异，各种维生素作用于川育12 的效应均强于对川育16。进一步对幼苗根系TTC 还原力及幼苗叶片中硝酸还原酶活性进行测定、分析。研究发现：并非所有种类的维生素对幼苗根系TTC 还原力及幼苗叶片中硝酸还原酶活性的提高都有帮助。幼苗根系TTC 还原力在不同维生素处理下存在显著差异，而与小麦品种关系甚微。经VB6、VC 处理后，根系TTC 还原力测定值均显著高于对照，VB1 不明显，VPP 则略低于对照。VB6、VC 处理的幼苗叶片中硝酸还原酶的含量大于对照，VB1 与对照相差无几，而VPP 处理的川育12 幼苗叶片中的硝酸还原酶活性比对照CK 略高，而在川育16 中则略比对照CK 有所下降，呈现出抑制效应。综上结果表明：VB6、VC 具有促进种子发芽，幼苗生长及根系生长的作用，是较好的促生长剂；VPP 具有抑制作用，是较好的抑制剂，可进一步研究、开发利用。在盐胁迫条件下，对用4 种不同维生素VB1、VC、VB6、VPP 浸种川育12、川育16 后的种子萌发及幼苗生长（幼苗的根长、根重、苗高、苗鲜重）的研究结果表明：在不同盐浓度胁迫条件下， 各处理的种子萌发及幼苗生长均受到不同程度的抑制。随着盐浓度的增加, 发芽率、发芽指数和活力指数成下降趋势；幼苗的根长、根重、苗高、苗鲜重不断降低。4 种维生素处理间也表现出较大差异。VB6、VC 在每个处理中均保持对盐害的缓解作用，VB6 较VC 更易于促进发芽及幼苗生长。最终发芽率高，根系多、长、重，苗高高、重。而VB1、VPP 则表现出抑制作用。在高盐浓度150mM 时，4 种维生素浸种后的种子，其最终发芽率均不能达到40％，但VB6、VC 处理最终发芽率、苗重、根重均高于对照，VPP 最终发芽率、苗重、根重均低于对照。进一步对幼苗根系TTC 还原力及幼苗叶片中脯氨酸含量进行测定、分析。研究发现：不同盐浓度，不同维生素处理、不同品种间存在差异。随着盐浓度的增加（75mM，100mM，150mM），幼苗根系TTC 还原力活性成下降趋势，幼苗叶片中脯氨酸的积累量成上升趋势。VB6 处理脯氨酸含量增加最为明显，VC 次之，VPP 与对照接近，其变化幅度最小。经VB6、VC 处理后的幼苗根系还原强度，在不同盐浓度下，测定值均显著高于对照，VB1 不明显，VPP 则低于对照，产生负效应。此外，品种间表现不尽相同，相同的维生素处理，相同的盐浓度对不同的品种的种子萌发、生长效果也存在差异， 4 种维生素对川育16 的作用均强于川育12，但其影响趋势是一致的。说明VB6、VC 具有耐（抗）盐性，可以促进种子发芽和幼苗生长，是较好的耐（抗）盐拌种剂。 Vitamin is one kind of necessary low molecular compound for humans tosustain health and life. Lots of Studies have been done on the effectc of the vitaminsfor people. Vitamin can help people improve the body's natural resistance to disease,Drop the rate of birth defects、cacers and the incidence of the heart diseases. Ifpeople have less of them, the metabolism of the organism may throw off balance,immunity may drop off, and catch disease; Though the effects for Vitamin to thecrops are limited. up to now, there’s no one use soking seeds of wheats with vitaminsas a method, to study on how the effects will happen on the wheat seed germinationand seedling growth, and there are only few reserches on antireversion force forwheats ,none for the antireversion force in Sault stress condition.Wheat（Triticum aestivum L.）is sensitive to the salt, so the salt damage will doharm to wheat’s growth, it will have an unfavorable impact on the output and thequality of wheat.On this reaserch, we Soaking CHY12(red)、CHY16 (white) wheat seeds withVitamin C, B1, PP, B6 (50mg/L) as a pretreatment first. Then under two condition: one is in the normal environment the other is in different Salinity, we begin ourexperiments. Then disscuss on if the vitamin and salinity affect the wheat seedgermination and seedling growth, and what is the different between the two of them,the result shows that:Under the normal condition, after soaking seeds with VB1、VC、VB6、Vpp，we study on the their seed germination and the seeding growth(the root length andweights, The seedling heights and weights), it shows that all of those four kinds ofvitamin can adjust the seed germination, but different in The growth rate. VB6 isbest for increase, VC comes second,VPP is the worst. Meanwhile, those four vitaminalso have effect on the speed of the sprouting of the wheat. VB6、Vc can faster theseed germination most, and the seedlings are all doing well; VB1 do little effects onthe budding, Vpp is the worst, but all treatments are better than CK; but in Vi, VB1some what above the CK, while VPP lower than that. On the whole, the acceleratingeffect of VB6、VC are obvious, VB1 takes second place, but VPP in some aspects arenoneffective even have negative effect. Furthermore, different kind of seeds with thesame vitamin may different in seed germination and seedling growth, four vitaminson CHY16 is better than CHY12.More studies on TTC reductive capacity of roots and the activity of nitratereductase in the leaves, the reasult shows not all the vitamin can help the seedlings toimprove the TTC reductive capacity and the activity of nitrate reductase. TTCreductive capacity in different treatments shows significant differences,but notcorrelate to the variety of the wheat. The TTC reductive capacity of VB6、Vctreatments are all higher than CK, VB1 is nearly the same as CK, VPP is a littlelower than CK. Through the study of acivity of nitrate reductase, it shows that,VB6、VC are higher than CK ,VB1 is nearly the same as CK also, VPP is a little higher inthe CK of CHY12 but lower in CHY16. Through all the results above: VB6、Vc helpthe wheat seed germination, seedling growth and the growth of roots, is theperfectable factor of stimulating the growth; Vpp is a inhibition, that’ll be furtherreserch,and well develop and utilize in the future.Under the different Salinity condition, after soaking seeds with VB1、VC、VB6、Vpp，we study on the their seed germination and the seeding growth(the root lengthand weights, The seedling heights and weights), it shows that: under differentsalinity, the seed germination and the seedling growth of any treatment are inhibited.With the increase of the concentration, the germination rate, Vi、Gi all had fallen; theroot length and weight, the seedling heights and weights steadily sank down. There are also have pronounced difference between all treatments with four differentvitamins.VB6、VC in all treatments are alleviative the salt damage, VB6 is easier tocause to put forth buds than VC, and it’s quantitative value is the highest in theultimate germination rate, in root and seedlings’ hight and weight. Though the VPP、VB1 are seems to inhibite its growth. Under the high concentration150mM Nacl, theultimate germination rate in all treatments are below the 40%, but VB6、VC’squantitative values in any experiments are higher than CK,while VPP lower thanCK.Then we study on the TTC reductive capacity of roots and the content of Polinein leaves, the result shows that between the different salinity, different vitamintreatments, different varieties of the wheat have discrepancy.along with theincreasing concentraion of the salinity（75mM，100mM，150mM），TTC reductivecapacity of roots decreases, the accumulation of the content of Poline in leaves havean upward trend. The increase of VB6’s treatment are obviously, VC comessecond,VPP is nearly come up with CK, changes a little. In TTC reductive capacity of roots’s reserch, VB6、VC are higher than CK at any time,VB1 is not palpable,VPP is lower than CK, makes negative affect on wheat. In addition, varieties of thewheats are remain different, no matter it shows promoting or inhibiting, all fourvitamins have moreobvious effects on CHY16 than CHY12, but the tendency of theeffection are the same. It is say that VB6、VC can help wheat to standwith the saultwell, and promot in growth，they are the better reagent to mix with the seed.

Deformation Defects in Nanocrystalline Nickel

Defects induced by plastic deformation in electrodeposited, fully dense nanocrystalline (nc) Ni with an average grain size of 25 nm have been characterized by means of high resolution transmission electron microscopy. The nc Ni was deformed under uniaxial tension at liquid-nitrogen temperature. Trapped full dislocations were observed in the grain interior and near the grain boundaries. In particular, these dislocations preferred to exist in the form of dipoles. Deformation twinning was confirmed in nc grains and the most proficient mechanism is the heterogeneous nucleation via emission of partial dislocations from the grain boundaries.

Atomistic Simulation On Size-Dependent Yield Strength And Defects Evolution Of Metal Nanowires

A simple derivation based on continuum mechanics is given, which shows the surface stress is critical for yield strength at ultra-small scales. Molecular dynamics (MD) simulations with modified embedded atom method (MEAM) are employed to investigate the mechanical behaviors of single-crystalline metal nanowires under tensile loading. The calculated yield strengths increasing with the decrease of the cross-sectional area of the nanowires are in accordance with the theoretical prediction. Reorientation induced by stacking faults is observed at the nanowire edge. In addition. the mechanism of yielding is discussed in details based on the snapshots of defects evolution. The nanowires in different crystallographic orientations behave differently in stretching deformation. This study on the plastic properties of metal nanowires will be helpful to further understanding of the mechanical properties of nanomaterials. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

Energy transfer between silicon-oxygen-related defects and Yb3+ in transparent glass ceramics containing Ba2TiSi2O 8 nanocrystals

We report on the conversion of near-ultraviolet radiation of 250-350 nm into near-infrared emission of 970-1100 nm in Yb3+-doped transparent glass ceramics containing Ba2TiSi2O8 nanocrystals due to the energy transfer from the silicon-oxygen-related defects to Yb3+ ions. Efficient Yb3+ emission (F-2(5/2)-> F-2(7/2)) was detected under the excitation of defects absorption at 314 nm. The occurrence of energy transfer is proven by both steady state and time-resolved emission spectra, respectively, at 15 K. The Yb2O3 concentration dependent energy transfer efficiency has also been evaluated, and the maximum value is 65% for 8 mol % Yb2O3 doped glass ceramic. These materials are promising for the enhancement of photovoltaic conversion efficiency of silicon solar cells via spectra modification.

Defects in U3+: CaF2 single crystals grown under different conditions by the temperature gradient technique

Defects in as-grown U3+ : CaF2 crystals grown with or without PbF2 as an oxygen scavenger were studied using Raman spectra, thermoluminescence glow curves, and additional absorption (AA) spectra induced by heating and gamma-irradiation. The effects of heating and irradiation on as-grown U3+: CaF2 crystals are similar, accompanied by the elimination of H-type centers and production of F-type centers. U3+ is demonstrated to act as an electron donor in the CaF2 lattice, which is oxidized to the tetravalent form by thermal activation or gamma-irradiation. In the absence of PbF(2)as an oxygen scavenger, the as-grown U3+:CaF2 crystals contain many more lattice defects in terms of both quantity and type, due to the presence of O2- impurities. Some of these defects can recombine with each other in the process of heating and gamma-irradiation. (c) 2005 WILEY-VCH Verlag GmbH & Co. KGaA, Weinheim.

Defects in LPE-grown beta-barium borate (beta-BaB2O4) thin films

Morphological defects in beta-barium borate (beta-BBO) thin films grown on Sr2+ -doped alpha-BBO substrates by liquid phase epitaxy (LPE) technique were studied by scanning electron micrograph (SEM), atomic force microscopy (AFM) and optical spectroscopy. The present results indicate that the main defects exit in beta-BBO thin films are microcracks and hollow structure. The formation of microcrack is due to the lattice mismatch and the difference of thermal expansion coefficients between substrate and film. The hollow structure might be caused during the combination of islands, which formed in the initial stage. (C) 2006 Elsevier GmbH. All rights reserved.

Extended bidirectional reflectance distribution function for polarized light scattering from subsurface defects under a smooth surface

By introducing the scattering probability of a subsurface defect (SSD) and statistical distribution functions of SSD radius, refractive index, and position, we derive an extended bidirectional reflectance distribution function (BRDF) from the Jones scattering matrix. This function is applicable to the calculation for comparison with measurement of polarized light-scattering resulting from a SSD. A numerical calculation of the extended BRDF for the case of p-polarized incident light was performed by means of the Monte Carlo method. Our numerical results indicate that the extended BRDF strongly depends on the light incidence angle, the light scattering angle, and the out-of-plane azimuth angle. We observe a 180 degrees symmetry with respect to the azimuth angle. We further investigate the influence of the SSD density, the substrate refractive index, and the statistical distributions of the SSD radius and refractive index on the extended BRDF. For transparent substrates, we also find the dependence of the extended BRDF on the SSD positions. (c) 2006 Optical Society of America.

Theoretical analysis of optical properties of dielectric coatings dependence on substrate subsurface defects

A model for refractive index of stratified dielectric substrate was put forward according to theories of inhomogeneous coatings. The substrate was divided into surface layer, subsurface layer and bulk layer along the normal direction of its surface. Both the surface layer (separated into N-1 sublayers of uniform thickness) and subsurface layer (separated into N-2 sublayers of uniform thickness), whose refractive indices have different statistical distributions, are equivalent to inhomogeneous coatings, respectively. And theoretical deduction was carried Out by employing characteristic matrix method of optical coatings. An example of mathematical calculation for optical properties of dielectric coatings had been presented. The computing results indicate that substrate subsurface defects can bring about additional bulk scattering and change propagation characteristic in thin film and Substrate. Therefore, reflectance, reflective phase shift and phase difference of an assembly of coatings and substrate deviate from ideal conditions. The model will provide some beneficial theory directions for improving optical properties of dielectric coatings via substrate surface modification. (c) 2005 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
