    Incarvillea uniflora H.P. Deng & Chang Y. Xia, sp. nov. Figs.1, 2, 3 Type:— China. Xizang: Markam County, Zongxi villages, 29° 48’ 02.74”N, 98° 42’ 43.88” E, grassland, Elev. 4061 m, 12 Dec. 2013, X. Z . Lan, L. Q. Li & J. Luo 542129130803144 LY (holotype: ISBC!). Diagnosis:— Incarvillea uniflora is most similar to I. himalayensis, but differs by leaves all simple (vs. usually pinnately lobed or reduce to single lobe), calyx lobes long triangular (vs. ovate to lanceolate), peduncles 6.5-16.5 cm (vs. 2.2–2.8(–4.5) cm), flowers solitary or clustered (vs. solitary or few in terminal racemes). Description:—Herbs perennial, 3–6(–50) cm tall, glabrescent. Leaves usually basal, rosette, simple, undivided; petiole 1–4.5(–9) cm; blade papery, ovate-elliptic to suborbicular, 4–8(–15) × 3–6(–10) cm, base and apex subrounded, margin subentire or shallowly serrate; lateral veins 7–9 on each side of midrib. Flowers solitary or 3–7 flowers in clusters. Pedicel ca. 6.5–16.5 cm. Bracts borne at the base of pedicel, lanceolate or broadly lanceolate, 5–9 × 1–2 mm, glabrous. Calyx campanulate, 2–3.5 cm; teeth long triangular, 0.4–1 cm × 1.5–5 mm, apex acute. Corolla red, 4.5–7 × ca. 4 cm; tube 4.5–5 cm, purple-red striate and spotted in the inner surface; lobes suborbicular, 1.5–1.9 × 2–2.5 cm. Stamens 4, dydinamous, inserted at base of corolla tube; filaments glandular-hairy 4; the longer pair 2 mm, the shorter pair 1.8 mm. Style 5–6 cm, stigma flabellate. Capsule lanceolate, compressed, 4-angled, 5–7 cm × 7–9 mm, apex acuminate. Seeds subspherical, 3.5–4.5 × 3–4 mm, wing 0.5–0.8 mm wide. Etymology:—The specific epithet ‘ uniflora ’ refers to the growth pattern of flowers, solitary or clustered. Distribution, Habitat, and Phenology:— Incarvillea uniflora is distributed in Hengduan Mountains (Markam County, Xizang, China). It grows in natural grassland at an elevation of 4061 m. The flowering period is from May to July and the fruiting period is from July to September. Preliminary conservation status:—The observation of the field population indicated that Incarvillea uniflora had a narrow distribution range, but its habitat, natural grassland, was very common in Hengduan Mountains. Furthermore, considering the Incarvillea species were widely distributed in Hengduan Mountain, we speculated that there could exist potential undiscovered populations. Therefore, it should be classified as Data Deficient (DD) based on the International Union for Conservation of Nature Red List criteria (IUCN 2012). Additional specimens examined (Paratypes):— CHINA.

The data present the fitting results of the broad excitation spectra of Ca(VO3)2:1%Eu and Ca3(VO4)2:1%Eu using the Gaussian model, the O/R values using the experimental PL emission results. The data compares the optimized cell parameters for Ca(VO3)2: 1%Eu and Ca3(VO4)2:1%Eu through the CASTEP geometry optimization with their initial cell parameters

    Atomically Dispersed Single Co Sites in Zeolitic Imidazole Frameworks Promoting High‐Efficiency Visible‐Light‐Driven Hydrogen Production

    No full text
    Since the photocatalysis technology could transform the renewable and clean solar energy into green hydrogen (H2) energy via solar water splitting, it is regarded as the 'Holy Grail' in chemistry field in the 21st century. Unfortunately, the bottleneck of this technique still lies in the exploration of highly-active, cost-effective and robust photocatalysts. Herein, we report the design and synthesis of a novel zeolitc imidazole framework (ZIF) coupled Zn0.8Cd0.2S hetero-structured photocatalyst for high performance visible-light-induced H2 production. State-of-art characterizations and theoretical computations disclose that the interfacial electronic interaction between ZIF and Zn0.8Cd0.2S, the high distribution of Zn0.8Cd0.2S on ZIF and the atomically-dispersed coordinately-unsaturated Co sites in ZIF synergistically arouse the significantly-raised visible-light photocatalytic H2-production performance.Jingrun Ran, Hongping Zhang, Jiangtao Qu, Bingquan Xia, Xuliang Zhang, Shuangming Chen, Li Song, Liqiang Jing, Rongkun Zheng and Shi-Zhang Qia

    Contrasting Effects of Ethylene Biosynthesis on Induced Plant Resistance against a Chewing and a Piercing-Sucking Herbivore in Rice

    No full text
    Ethylene is a stress hormone with contrasting effects on herbivore resistance. However, it remains unknown whether these differences are plant- or herbivore-specific. We cloned a rice 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) synthase gene, OsACS2, whose transcripts were rapidly up-regulated in response to mechanical wounding and infestation by two important pests: the striped stem borer (SSB) Chilo suppressalis and the brown planthopper (BPH) Nilaparvata lugens. Antisense expression of OsACS2 (as-acs) reduced elicited ethylene emission, SSB-elicited trypsin protease inhibitor (TrypPI) activity, SSB-induced volatile release, and SSB resistance. Exogenous application of ACC restored TrypPI activity and SSB resistance. In contrast to SSB, BPH infestation increased volatile emission in as-acs lines. Accordingly, BPH preferred to feed and oviposit on wild-type (WT) plants—an effect that could be attributed to two repellent volatiles, 2-heptanone and 2-heptanol, that were emitted in higher amounts by as-acs plants. BPH honeydew excretion was reduced and natural enemy attraction was enhanced in as-acs lines, resulting in higher overall resistance to BPH. These results demonstrate that ethylene signaling has contrasting, herbivore-specific effects on rice defense responses and resistance against a chewing and a piercing-sucking insect, and may mediate resistance trade-offs between herbivores of different feeding guilds in rice
