The complete chloroplast genome and phylogenetic analysis of Corydalis fangshanensis W.T. Wang ex S.Y. He (Papaveraceae)
The complete chloroplast (cp) genome of Corydalis fangshanensis W.T. Wang ex S.Y. He, a Chinese endemic plant with limestone-specific distribution was first reported. The cp genome was circular in structure and 192,554 bp in length, consisting of a large single copy region (LSC, 98,393 bp), two inverted repeat regions (IRs, 42,263 bp), and a small single copy region (SSC, 9,635 bp). The overall GC content of the genome was 40.26%. It encoded 112 unique genes, including 78 protein-coding genes, 30 tRNA genes, and 4 rRNA genes. Phylogenetic analysis resolved C. fangshanensis was closely related to C. saxicola G.S. Bunting within Corydalis sect. Thalictrifoliae (Fedde) Lidén, in line with morphological character-based taxonomy. Our result provides informative data for studying the taxonomy, phylogeny and ecology of Corydalis, especially species with specific-limestone distribution and also for studying the adaptive evolution in plants

Symmetric duality for a class of nondifferentiable multi-objective fractional variational problems
AbstractWe introduce a symmetric dual pair for a class of nondifferentiable multi-objective fractional variational problems. Weak, strong, converse and self duality relations are established under certain invexity assumptions. The paper includes extensions of previous symmetric duality results for multi-objective fractional variational problems obtained by Kim, Lee and Schaible [D.S. Kim, W.J. Lee, S. Schaible, Symmetric duality for invex multiobjective fractional variational problems, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 289 (2004) 505–521] and symmetric duality results for the static case obtained by Yang, Wang and Deng [X.M. Yang, S.Y. Wang, X.T. Deng, Symmetric duality for a class of multiobjective fractional programming problems, J. Math. Anal. Appl. 274 (2002) 279–295] to the dynamic case
Age dependency and correlation of heart rate variability, pressure variability and baroreflex sensitivity
Simultaneous analysis of heart rate variability (HRV), blood pressure variability (BPV) and baroreflex sensitivity (BRS) with different types of measures may provide non-duplicative information about autonomic cardiovascular regulation. Therefore, a multiple signal analysis of cardiovascular time series will enhance the physiological understanding of neuro cardiovascular regulation with deconditioning in bedrest or related gravitational physiological studies. It has been shown that age is an important determinant of HRV and BRS in healthy subjects. Whereas in the case of BPV, the effect of aging seems to depend upon the activity status of the subjects. In view of the facts that most of the previous works were dealing with only the variability of one kind of cardiovascular parameters in one study with conventional time-domain and/or frequency-domain analysis, we therefore designed the present work to compare the HRV, BPV and BRS between young and middle-aged male healthy subjects in one study with the same subjects using various techniques, including the approximate entropy (ApEn) measurement, a statistic quantifying HRV "complexity" derived from non-linear dynamics
