Abstract Genome editing is a powerful technique for genome modification in molecular research and crop breeding has the great advantage of imparting novel desired traits to genetic resources. However, fruit tree plantlets remains be established. In this study, we describe induction targeted gene mutation endogenous apple phytoene desaturase ( PDS ) using CRISPR/Cas9 system. Four guide RNAs (gRNAs) were designed stably transformed with Cas9 separately apple. Clear partial albino phenotypes...

Apple (Malus × domestica Borkh.) is a perennial woody plant that undergoes period of dormancy (in cv. Jonathan between late September and mid-December) to survive freezing temperatures winter. DORMANCY-ASSOCIATED MADS-BOX (DAM) genes play important roles in the regulation growth cessation terminal bud formation peach. To understand role DAM orthologs apple, we isolated characterized four DAM-like (designated as MdDAMa, MdDAMb, MdDAMc, MdDAMd) monitored their expression apical buds throughout...
Most deciduous fruit trees cultivated in the temperate zone require a genotype-dependent amounts of chilling exposure for dormancy release and bud break. In Japanese apricot (Prunus mume), DORMANCY-ASSOCIATED MADS-box 6 (PmDAM6) may influence chilling-mediated this study, we attempted to elucidate biological functions PmDAM6 related regulation by analyzing PmDAM6-overexpressing transgenic apple (Malus spp.). We generated 35S:PmDAM6 lines chemically inducible overexpression lines,...
Two apple [ Malus sylvestris (L.) Mill. var. domestica (Borkh.) Mansf.] homologous fragments of FLO/LFY and SQUA/AP1 ( AFL MdAP1 , respectively) were analyzed to determine the relationship between floral bud formation gene expression in `Jonathan' apple. The was expressed reproductive vegetative organs. By contrast, gene, identified as MdMADS5 which is classified into AP1 group, specifically sepals concurrent with sepal formation. Based on these results, may be involved induction a greater...
A 1.3 µm laser has been developed with a butt-jointed selectively grown spot-size converter (SSC). The SSC, vertically tapered waveguide and strained multiquantum well (MQW) active region are independently optimised. was buried semi-insulating InP to reduce optical loss in the SSC. threshold current of 7 mA an output power > 20 mW were obtained. Minimum coupling flat-end fibre 1.06 dB achieved. Long-term stability also confirmed.
A 0.98 μm laser-diode-pumped waveguide amplifier is successfully realised by using an Er-doped silica-based planar lightwave circuit. The highest signal gain of 9.4 dB achieved at a wavelength 1.533 with pump power 99 mW, highly efficient erbium-doped and high laser diodes.
Abstract We report improved absolute frequency measurement of the 1 S 0 - 3 P transition 171 Yb at National Metrology Institute Japan (NMIJ) by comparing optical lattice clock NMIJ-Yb1 with 13 Cs primary standards via International Atomic Time from August 2021 to May 2023. The measured is 518 295 836 590 863.62(10) Hz a fractional uncertainty 1.9 × 10 -16 , in good agreement recommended as secondary representation second. This 2.6 times lower than our previous uncertainty, and slightly any...
Abstract The apple cultivar McIntosh Wijcik, which is a mutant of ‘McIntosh’, exhibits columnar growth phenotype (short internodes, few lateral branches, many spurs, etc.) that controlled by dominant Co gene. candidate gene (MdDOX-Co), encoding 2-oxoglutarate-dependent dioxygenase, located adjacent to an insertion mutation. Non-columnar apples express MdDOX-Co in the roots, whereas aerial parts as well roots. However, function remains unknown. Here, we characterized tobacco plants...

Particles that lacked P2 protein neither attached nor infected such Furthermore, P2-free obtained from a transmission-competent isolate virus were unable infect vectors had been allowed feed on these through membrane. However, when injected into insects via glass capillary tube they successfully insects, which became able...
This paper describes compact variable optical attenuator arrays made by using fiber splicers and polymer-network liquid crystal. Fibers are inserted into the gaps between ends of fibers filled with The residual loss for each array element is low (about 0.8 dB), attenuation 1.55-μm light about 8 dB driving voltage 20 V/sub rms/. polarization dependence <2 dB. power consumption also very (30 nW/ch). They used channel equalizers WDM systems.
Both Pr3+-doped and Pr3+-Yb3+-codoped singlemode fibres with high numerical apertures are pumped by laser diodes InGaAs/GaAs strained quantum well structures. A net gain of 5.2 dB is obtained from fluoride fibre operating at 1.017 μm a 3.2 0.98 μm. The pumping efficiency difference between discussed.
