In this study, using the quadratic saturation 310 D-optimal design method, we examined the effect of kinetin (KT), gibberellic acid (GA), and naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) on microrhizome production in ginger. The effect of GA on rhizome induction was larger than that of KT or NAA. Using simulation and optimality selection for tissue culture, we found that concentrations of GA, KT, and NAA of 1.33-2.35, 0.49-0.66, and 0.62 g/l, respectively, gave a microrhizome weight of over 0.25 g. The optimal conditions for microrhizome production were 80 g/l sucrose, 2 9 MS macro-elements, and 1 9 MS microelements, with a photoperiod of 24L:0D (light/dark). At the same time, 100% survival could be achieved on transfer of the in vitro ginger plantlets with microrhizomes to soil.
The appropriate N-leaching lag time was determined from cross-correlation analysis between annual watershed individual N source inputs and riverine N export. Accuracy of the modified ReNuMa model was demonstrated through analysis of a 31-year water quality record from the Yongan watershed in eastern China. The revisions considerably improved the accuracy (Nash-Sutcliff coefficient increased by ∼0.2) of the modified ReNuMa model for predicting riverine N loads. The modified model explicitly identified annual and seasonal changes in contributions of various N sources (i.e., point vs. nonpoint source, surface runoff vs. groundwater) to riverine N loads as well as the fate of watershed anthropogenic N inputs. Model results were consistent with previously modeled or observed lag time length as well as changes in riverine chloride and nitrate concentrations during the low-flow regime and available N levels in agricultural soils of this watershed. The modified ReNuMa model is applicable for addressing long-term changes in riverine N sources, providing decision-makers with critical information for guiding watershed N pollution control strategies.
Spray drying is a kind of unit operation with high energy consumption and relatively low energy utilization, and the problem of low thermal efficiency has been attracted the attention by scholars at home and abroad. The factors affecting the thermal efficiency of spray dryer are analyzed. From a technical point of view, the thermal efficiency of spray dryer can be increased through the unit operation. Measurements for the reduction of energy saving of spray dryer were put forward.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
