Overexpression of phyA and appA genes improves soil organic phosphorus utilisation and seed phytase activity in Brassica napus.

Phytate is the major storage form of organic phosphorus in soils and plant seeds, and phosphorus (P) in this form is unavailable to plants or monogastric animals.In the present study, the phytase genes phyA and appA were introduced into Brassica napus cv Westar with a signal peptide sequence and CaMV 35S Shower Gel promoter, respectively.Three inde

Design study of a Martian rotor blade using a triangular airfoil

The Martian atmosphere is characterized by a low density and low speed of sound, which result in the low Reynolds number compressible flows.In this regime, conventional airfoils perform poorly due to the boundary layer separation and the formation of shack wave.The current paper investigates the hovering performance and the structure analysis of a
