裸子植物的分类和系统发育研究—松科的分类、地理和种系发生研究，中国红豆杉科、三尖杉科、南洋杉科和银杏科的分类学研究

球果类植物是现存裸子植物中最为繁盛的一群，也是目前组成北温带森林植被的重要成分，我国是球果类植物科属的重要分布、分化或保存中心。对这些科属的分类和系统发育的研究，无疑对北温带的森林植被的研究，以及林业生产均具有重要的理论和实用价值．本研究即是围绕着球果类中的Pinaceae，Taxaceae及Cephalotaxaceae等科展开的研究，内容主要包括以下几方面： 一、在《中国植物志》第七卷的基础上，完成了《FLORA OF CHINA》中裸子植物Ginkgoaceae，Arancariaceae Pinaceae，Taxaceae，和Cephalotaxaceae各科的修订和编写． 建立2个新种、2个新变种、12个新组合、64个新异名、2个新分布，2个新启用名，分类群及其名称的变动和增补，以及增补异名57个。 二、根据植物的地理分布与系统发育统一的原理，在资料分析和实验的基础上，运用表征分析和分支分析研究方法，同时结合化石和地史资料，针对松科的分类、地理分布、以及起源分化和扩散等问题进行了一系列系统的研究，主要结论如下： 1．提出松科分类的新系统，将松科划分为三个亚科：松亚科Subfam．Pinoideae:仅一属Pinus Linn．： 落叶松亚科Subfam．Laricoideae Melchior＆Werderm, emend．N．Li et L.K．Fu：包括四属Larix Mill.，Cathaya Chun&Ku:tng, Picea A Dretr. andPseudotsuga Carr．;冷杉亚科Subfam．Abietoideae Pilger, emend．Frankis:包括五属Abies Mill．，Cedrus Trew, Pseudolarix Gord．，Keteleeria Carr.,and Tsuga Carr． 2．构思和绘出了以地质年代为纵座标的松科系统发育树。 3．进行松科植物分区，将松科划分为6区、4亚区。并分别附有分区图、各区所分布种数的统计表、以及各属目前的地理分布和化石分布图。 4．松科在地质时期曾是一个很庞大的类群，现代松科只是其祖先中少部分喜温性分支的后裔，其兴旺与温带成份的出现关系密切，可能是一类衍生类群． 5．松科的起源时间虽然可追溯到侏罗纪甚至三迭纪，但现代松科各属的出现时间大约是在早白垩纪至第三纪之间。 6．松科各属可能并非起源于同一时间和地点。松属可能是现存的、最早分化出来的类群，于侏罗纪至早白垩纪间起源于欧美古陆;其它属则到晚白垩纪至第三纪早期（有1-2属至中期）才陆续从其祖先复合体中分化出来。 7．现代松科的早期扩散可能存在着以下三条主要的迁陡路线，即：欧美路线、欧亚路线和古白令路线．

Nuclear matrix of the most primitive eukaryote Archezoa

Accumulating evidence suggests that unicellular Archezoa are the most primitive eukaryotes and their nuclei are of significance to the study of evolution of the eukaryotic nucleus. Nuclear matrix is an ubiquitous important structure of eukaryotic nucleus; its evolution is certainly one of the most important parts of the evolution of nucleus. To study the evolution of nuclear matrix, nuclear matrices of Archezoa are investigated. Giardia lamblia cells are extracted sequentially. Both embedment-free section EM and whole mount cell EM of the extracted cells show that, like higher eukaryotes, this species has a residual nuclear matrix in its nucleus and rich intermediate filaments in its cytoplasm, and the two networks connect with each other to form a united network. But its nuclear matrix does not have nucleolar matrix and its lamina is not as typical as that of higher eukaryotes; Western blotting shows that lamina of Giardia and two other Archezoa Entamoeba invadens and Trichomonas vaginali all contain only one polypeptide each which reacts with a mammalia anti-lamin polyclonal serum and is similar to lamin B (67 ku) of mammlia in molecular weight. According to the results and references, it is suggested that nuclear matrix is an early acquisition of the eukaryotic nucleus, and it and the "eukaryotic chromatin" as a whole must have originated very early in the process of evolution of eukaryotic cell, and their origin should be an important prerequisite of the origin of eukaryotic nucleus; in the iamin (gene) family, B-type lamins (gene) should be the ancestral type and that A-type lamins (gene) might derive therefrom.

MtDNA phylogeny provides evidence of generic polyphyleticism for East Asian bagrid catfishes

We explore the intrafamilial relationships of East Asian bagrid catfishes (Hemibagrus, Pseudobagrus, Pelteobagrus, and Leiocassis) based on 245 sequences of 1092 bp mitochondrial cytochrome b fragments. Four haplotypes were found to be shared by Pseudobagrus ussuriensis, Pelteobagrus vachelli and Pelteobagrus nitidus. Phylogenetic trees were performed using the neighbor joining, maximum parsimony, maximum likelihood, and Bayesian likelihood methods. The phylogenetic trees based on NJ, MP, ML and BL inferences strongly support polyphyleticism for the currently recognized genera Pseudobagrus, Pelteobagrus and Leiocassis. However, the species currently assigned to these three genera form a robustly monophyletic group with relatively low genetic divergence. The structure of maxillary barbels and serrations on the anterior edge of the pectoral spines seem to be indicatory of appropriate phylogenetic traits. We propose that only Hemibagrus and Pseudobagrus are the only valid genera of East Asian bagrids.

Genetic heterogeneity and ploidy level analysis among different gynogenetic clones of the polyploid gibel carp

Background: Some triploid and tetraploid clones have been identified in the gynogenetic gibel carp, Carassius auratus gibelio Bloch, by karyotypic and cytologic analyses over many years. Further, 5-20% males and karyotypic diversity have been found among their natural and artificial populations. However, the DNA contents and the relation to their ploidy level and chromosome numbers have not been ascertained, and whether normal meiosis occurs in spermatogenesis needs to be determined in the different clones. Methods: The sampled blood cells or sperms were mixed with blood cells from chicken or individual gibel carp and fixed in 70% pre-cooled ethanol overnight at 4degreesC. The mixed cell pellets were washed 2-3 times in 1x phosphate buffered saline and then resuspended in the solution containing 0.5% pepsin and 0.1 M HCl. DNA was stained with propidium iodide solution (40 mug/mL) containing 4 kU/ml RNase. The measurements of DNA contents were performed with Phoenix Flow Systems. Results: Triploid clones A, E, F, and P had almost equal DNA content, but triploid clone D had greater DNA content than did the other four triploid clones. DNA content of clone M (7.01 +/- 0.15 pg/nucleus) was almost equal to the DNA content of clone D (5-38 +/- 0.06 pg/nucleus) plus the DNA content of common carp sperm (1.64 +/- 0.02 pg/nucleus). The DNA contents of sperms from clones A, P, and D were half of their blood cells, suggesting that normal meiosis occurs in spermatogenesis. Conclusions: Flow cytometry is a powerful method to analyze genetic heterogeneity and ploidy level among different gynogenetic clones of polyploid gibel carp. Through this study, four questions have been answered. (a) The DNA content correlation among the five triploid clones and one multiple tetraploid clone was revealed in the gibel carp, and the contents increased with not only the ploidy level but also the chromosome number. (b) Mean DNA content was 0.052 pg in six extra chromosomes of clone D, which was higher than that of each chromosome in clones A, E, F, and P (about 0.032 pg/ chromosome). This means that the six extra chromosomes are larger chromosomes. (c) Normal meiosis occurred during spermatogenesis of the gibel carp, because DNA contents of the sperms from clones A, P, and D were almost half of that in their blood cells. (d) Multiple tetraploid clone M (7.01 +/- 0.15 pg/nucleus) contained the complete genome of clone D (5.38 +/- 0.06 pg/nucleus) and the genome of common carp sperm (1.64 +/- 0.02 pg/nucleus).

Growth behavior of AlInGaN films

The structural and surface properties of AlInGaN quaternary films grown at different temperatures on GaN templates by metalorganic chemical vapor deposition are investigated. Formation of two quaternary layers is confirmed and the difference between them is pronounced when the growth temperature is increased. The surface is featured with V-shaped pits and cracks, whose characteristics are further found to be strongly dependent on the growth temperature of AlInGaN layers. The two-layer structure is interpreted by taking into account of the strain status in AlInGaN layers. (C) 2008 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.

A direct digital frequency synthesizer with single-stage delta-sigma interpolator and current-steering DAC

This paper presents a direct digital frequency synthesizer (DDFS) with a 16-bit accumulator, a 4th-order single-stage pipelined delta-sigma interpolator and a 300MS/s 12-bit current-steering DAC based on Q(2) Random Walk switching scheme. The delta-sigma interpolator is used to reduce the phase truncation error and the ROM size. The measured spurious-free dynamic range (SFDR) is greater than 80 dB for 8-bit phase value and 12-bit sine-amplitude output. The DDFS prototype is fabricated in a 0.35um CMOS technology with core area of 1.11mm(2).

Raman scattering study on vibrational modes in Ga1-xMnxN prepared by Mn-ion implantation

Raman scattering measurements have been carried out on ferromagnetic semiconductor Ga1-xMnxN prepared by Mn-ion implantation and post annealing. The Raman results obtained from the annealed and un-annealed Ga1-xMnxN demonstrate that crystalline quality has been improved in Ga1-xMnxN after annealing. Some new vibrational modes in addition to GaN-like modes are found in the Raman spectra measured from the Ga1-xMnxN where the GaN-like modes are found to be shifted in the higher frequency side than those measured from the bulk GaN. A new vibrational mode observed is assigned to MnN-like mode. Other new phonon modes observed are assigned to disorder-activated modes and Mn-related vibrational modes caused by Mn-ion implantation and post-annealing. (c) 2006 Elsevier Ltd.

A novel fast lock-in phase-locked loop frequency synthesizer with direct frequency presetting circuit

This paper proposes a novel, fast lock-in, phase-locked loop (PLL) frequency synthesizer. The synthesizer includes a novel mixed-signal voltage-controlled oscillator (VCO) with a direct frequency presetting circuit. The frequency presetting circuit can greatly speed up the lock-in process by accurately the presetting oscillation frequency of the VCO. We fully integrated the synthesizer in standard 0.35 mu m, 3.3 V complementary metal-oxide-semiconductors (CMOS) process. The entire chip area is only 0.4 mm(2). The measured results demonstrate that the synthesizer can speed up the lock-in process significantly and the lock-in time is less than 10 mu s over the entire oscillation frequency range. The measured phase noise of the synthesizer is -85 dBc/Hz at 10 kHz offset. The synthesizer avoids the tradeoff between the lock-in speed and the phase noise/spurs. The synthesizer monitors the chip temperature and automatically compensates for the variation in frequency with temperature.

Quantum computation using artificial molecules

Two kinds of quantum computation systems using artificial molecules: quantum computer and quantum analog computer are described. The artificial molecule consists of two or three coupled quantum dots stacked along z direction and one single electron, In quantum computer, one-qubit and two-qubit gates are constructed by one molecule and two molecules, respectively. The coupling between two qubits in a quantum gate can be controlled by thin film electrodes. We also constructed a quantum analog computer by designing a three-dot molecule network and mapping a graph 3-colorability problem onto the network. The ground-state configuration of the single electrons in the network corresponds to one of the problem solutions, We numerically study the operations of the two kinds of the quantum computers and demonstrate that they quantum gates can perform the quantum computation and solve complex problems.

The growth and characterization of GaN grown on a gamma-Al2O3/(001) Si substrate by metalorganic vapor phase epitaxy

Wurtzite single crystal GaN films have been grown onto a gamma-Al2O3/Si(001) substrate in a horizontal-type low pressure MOVPE system. A thin gamma-Al2O3 layer is an intermediate layer for the growth of single crystal GaN on Si although it is only an oriented polycrystal film as shown by reflection high electron diffraction. Moreover, the oxide is not yet converted to a fully single crystal film, even at the stage of high temperature for the GaN layer as studied by transmission electron microscopy. Double crystal x-ray linewidth of (0002) peak of the 1.3 mu m sample is 54 arcmin and the films have heavy mosaic structures. A near band edge peaking at 3.4 eV at room temperature is observed by photoluminescence spectroscopy. Raman scattering does not detect any cubic phase coexistence.

Growth and characterization of GaN on LiGaO2 and LiAlO2

The nearly lattice-matched LiGaO2 and LiAlO2 substrates have been used for the growth of GaN by LP-MOVPE. GaN epilayers have been grown on the two substrates at very low input partial pressure of hydrogen and relatively low growth temperature. The difference in the growth rate, crystal and optical qualities of hexagonal GaN epilayers grown on LiAlO2 and LiGaO2 substrate with two polar domains are investigated. LiAlO2 and LiGaO2 single crystal with a single domain structure and an adequate surface plane are promising substrates for the growth of high quality of hexagonal GaN thin films.
