Hosta ventricosa is a robust ornamental perennial plant that can tolerate low temperatures, and which is widely used in urban landscaping design in Northeast China. However, the mechanism of cold-stress tolerance in this species is unclear. A combination of transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis was used to explore the mechanism of low-temperature tolerance in H. ventricosa. A total of 12 059 differentially expressed genes and 131 differentially expressed metabolites were obtained, which were mainly concentrated in the signal transduction and phenylpropanoid metabolic pathways. In the process of low-temperature signal transduction, possibly by transmitting Ca2+ inside and outside the cell through the ion channels on the three cell membranes of COLD, CNGCs and CRLK, H. ventricosa senses temperature changes and stimulates SCRM to combine with DREB through the MAPK signal pathway and Ca2+ signal sensors such as CBL, thus strengthening its low-temperature resistance. The pathways of phenylpropanoid and flavonoid metabolism represent the main mechanism of low-temperature tolerance in this species. The plant protects itself from low-temperature damage by increasing its content of genistein, scopolentin and scopolin. It is speculated that H. ventricosa can also adjust the content ratio of sinapyl alcohol and coniferyl alcohol and thereby alter the morphological structure of its cell walls and so increase its resistance to low temperatures.When subjected to low-temperature stress, H. ventricosa perceives temperature changes via COLD, CNGCs and CRLK, and protection from low-temperature damage is achieved by an increase in the levels of genistein, scopolentin and scopolin through the pathways of phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and flavonoid biosynthesis.

Conduct experimental study on low temperature performance about asphalt concrete with 6mm basalt fiber and without basalt, 6mm fibers whose dosage is 0.12%0.15% and 0.17%, test method is the indirect tensile test,test temperature is-10±0.5°C. The results show that basalt fiber improved the strength and failure strain of asphalt concrete in low temperature damage, reduced the failure stiffness,in which the maximum increased value of breaking strength is 3.41%, the maximum increased value of failure strain is 38.83%,and the maximum reduced value of failure stiffness is 25.52%,obviously improved low temperature cracking resistance of asphalt concrete;for low temperature performance, the optimum amount of value about 6mm basalt fiber is 0.15% .

Abstract Background: Hosta ventricosa is a robust ornamental perennial plant that can tolerate low temperatures, and which is widely used in urban landscaping design in Northeast China. However, the mechanism of cold stress tolerance in this species is unclear. Methods:This study used a combination of transcriptomic and metabolomic analysis to explore the mechanism of low temperature tolerance in H. ventricosa.Results: A total of 12 059 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) and 131 differentially expressed metabolites were obtained, which were mainly concentrated in the signal transduction and phenylpropanoid metabolic pathways. In the process of low temperature signal transduction, H. ventricosa is mainly through the ion channels on the three cell membranes of COLD, CNGCs and CRLK to transmit Ca2+ inside and outside the cell to sense temperature changes, and stimulate SCRM to combine with DREB through the MAPK signal pathway and Ca2+ signal sensors such as CBL. Strengthen the low temperature resistance of H. ventricosa. The pathways of phenylpropanoid and flavonoid metabolism represent the main mechanism of low temperature tolerance in this species. The plant protects itself from low temperature damage by increasing its content of genistein, scopolentin and scopolin. It is speculated that H. ventricosa can also adjust the content ratio of sinapyl alcohol and coniferyl alcohol and thereby alter the morphological structure of its cell walls and so increase its resistance to low temperatures.Conclusions: In H. ventricosa that is subjected to low temperature stress, temperature changes are perceived through COLD, CNGCs and CRLK, and protection from low temperature damage is achieved by an increase in the levels of genistein, scopolentin and scopolin through the pathways of phenylpropanoid biosynthesis and flavonoid biosynthesis.

Disaster insurance is an important tool for achieving sustainable development in modern agriculture. However, in China, the design of such insurance indexes is far from sufficient. In this paper, the single-season rice in Jiangsu Province of China is taken as an example to design the high-temperature damage index in summer and the low-temperature damage index in autumn to construct the formula calculating the weather output and single-season rice yield reduction. The daily highest, lowest and average temperatures between 1999 and 2015 are selected as main variables for the temperature disaster index to quantitatively analyze the relationship between the temperature index and the yield reduction rate of the single-season rice. The temperature disaster index can be put into the relevant model to obtain the yield reduction rate of the year and determine whether to pay the indemnity. Then, the burn analysis is used to determine the insurance premium rate for all cities in Jiangsu Province under four-level deductibles, and the insurance premium rate can be used for the risk division of the Province. The research provides some insights for the design of agricultural weather insurance products, and the empirical results provide a reference for the design of similar single-season rice temperature index insurance products.

The responses of plant leaves to chilling were studied in potato (Solanum tuberosum L., cv. Desnitsa) and in its transformants with the native desA gene that encodes the acyl-lipid Δ12-desaturase from the cyanobacterium Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803 and with the hybrid desA gene fused to the reporter gene of thermostable lichenase (licBM3) from Clostridium thermocellum. Cold stress caused a rapid and significant increase in superoxide production and lipid peroxidation (the content of conjugated dienes and malonic dialdehyde) in wild-type plants. By contrast no significant increase was detected in transformed plants under cold stress conditions. This can be attributed to the fact that the overexpression of the acyl-lipid Δ12-desaturase in transformed potato plants promotes fatty acid polyunsaturation and presumably averts the accelerated generation of the superoxide anion, thus suppressing lipid peroxidation under low-temperature stress

Ships operating in ice region have to meet more rigorous environment and more accidents occur such as hull-ice collision accidents or low temperature damage. The problem of hull-ice collision is a serious one about those. Compared with the other parts such as stern and stem, the side structure of a ship may be regarded as the weakest part in the collision accidents, due to its relative less safe distance. However, side structure has the biggest share among the whole structure, which means that it has the higher ratio to be collided with ice. It is worthy much to avoids the serious damages and improve the survivability of ship in the collision accident. This research simulated the collision between side structure and ice. It had analyzed the characteristics of damaged structure based on the energy method when the collision happened. And then it also discussed the importance of material properties especially for ice properties and compared the difference in the end. This paper can be taken as a period summary and were benefit to the research in next step. It was trying to find a way that can simulate the collision fast and accurately as well.
