Based on a three-year field experiment under controlled condition in Ji’nan, China, the effects of peanut growth on the variation in the abundance and community structure of ammonia oxidizing bacteria (AOB) and archaea (AOA) before and after peanut growth were investigated through quantitative PCR and cluster analysis of terminal-restriction fragment length polymorphism. Our results show that the...
Paeonia sect. Moutan is a wide known ornamental plant in the world. The objective of this study was to provide the theoretical basis for scientific preservation and utilization of tree peony resources of Hunan province of China. Simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers were applied to reveal the genetic diversity and relationship of 21 tree peony resources and 45 domestic and foreign tree peony cultivars...
Two centuries ago, Asia delivered over 60 percent of world production; in the middle of the 20th century it was less than 20 percent.

The quantification of biomass carbon pools is important for understanding carbon cycling in forest ecosystems. This study was designed to reveal the effects of stand age on biomass partitioning and carbon storage of Chinese fir plantation stands in Dabie Mountains of Anhui, East China. A total of six even-aged Chinese fir plantation stands along an age-sequence from 10 to 50 years were selected. To...
Fast development of the electronics industry and an eminent value of obsolescence of the electronic productions conduce to the uninterrupted production of great amounts of electronic waste or e-wasteworldwide. Due to the frequent commingling of a wide range of reusable, or recyclable, and non-recyclable surplus electronics, the term "e-waste" infer all sorts of these leftovers. Even though...
