Ammonium polyphosphate wrapped carbon microspheres: a novel flame retardant with smoke suppression for poly (ethylene terephthalate)
A new type of three-in-one flame retardant (CA) was first constructed by using ammonium polyphosphate (APP) as a shell material wrapped on carbon microspheres (CMSs) for flame retardant poly (ethylene terephth...

Open AccessOverexpression of OsbHLH107, a member of the basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor family, enhances grain size in rice (Oryza sativa L.)
Grain size, which is determined by grain length, grain width, and grain thickness, is an important determinant for grain yield in rice. Identification and characterization of new genes that are associated with...

A putative plastidial adenine nucleotide transporter, BRITTLE1-3, plays an essential role in regulating chloroplast development in rice (Oryza sativa L.)
Differentiation from proplastids into chloroplasts is a light- and energy-dependent process. How this process is regulated is still poorly understood at the molecular level. We herein report a new putative pla...

Effect of Ti–SiO2 nanoparticles on non-isothermal crystallization of polyphenylene sulfide fibers
Systematic studies of non-isothermal crystallization kinetics of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) and PPS/Ti–SiO2 (1.0, 3.0 and 5.0 mass%) fibers raw materials were performed by DSC combining with SEM and polarized op...

WSL3, a component of the plastid-encoded plastid RNA polymerase, is essential for early chloroplast development in rice
Plastid-encoded plastid RNA polymerase (PEP), a dominant RNA polymerase in mature chloroplasts, consists of core subunits and peripheral subunits. Despite the importance of the peripheral subunits in control o...

A rice White-stripe leaf3 (wsl3) mutant lacking an HD domain-containing protein affects chlorophyll biosynthesis and chloroplast development
Leaf-color mutants are ideal genetic materials for understanding the mechanism of chloroplast development and chlorophyll (Chl) biosynthesis. Here we isolated and identified a new leaf-color mutant of rice, na...

Comparison of EM-Based Algorithms and Image Segmentation Evaluation
Expectation-Maximization (EM) algorithm is used in statistics for finding maximum likelihood estimates of parameters in probabilistic models, where the model depends on unobserved latent variables. The idea be...
