Subjects Study on Rural Eco-Soft Power Construction

To promote eco-soft power construction in the countryside, it is important to utilize the governmental macroeconomic regulations, governance function and the autonomy and heteronomy of enterprises. Attaching great importance to maximizing the advantages of the farmers’ cooperative organizations which serve as the main subjects of rural eco-soft power is highly recommended. It is necessary to play its role in nurturing rural ecological culture, to improve farmers’ ecological awareness, qualities and abilities, to organize the farmers to undertake ecological agriculture, to promote recycling economy, to feed villages with surplus engaging in environmental and public welfare, and to reinforce materials and spiritual achievements in construction of rural ecological soft power.Key words: Rural ecological soft power; Farmers’ cooperative organization; Environmental governanc

Control of Soybean Aphids with Super Low-Dose Spraying: Efficacy and Labor Savings

The soybean aphid (Aphis glycines Mats.) is a major insect pest in soybean production areas, with annual occurrences causing serious damage to the soybean crops. The purpose of this experiment was to compare the control effect on soybean aphid and working efficacy of two methods of spraying with Dimethoate, namely, super-low volume spraying and conventional volume spraying, carried on the back with a manual compression operation. The results obtained are as follows.Originating text in Chinese.Citation: Li, Yong, Lin, Peili, Liu, Yanping. (1989).

Synthesis of novel substituted N-aryl benzamides as hA3G stabilizers and their inhibitory activities against hepatitis C virus replication

AbstractA series of novel amino-substituted N-aryl benzamide analogs were synthesized and evaluated for their ability to inhibit hepatitis C virus (HCV) replication in acutely infected Huh7.5 cells. Most of the substituted N-aryl benzamide compounds showed convincing anti-HCV activities. Compounds 1f, 1g and 4c exhibited potent anti-replicative activity at low micromolar levels (IC50=1.0–2.0μM) with selective indices (SI) greater than 40. Mechanistic analysis indicated that the active compounds increased intracellular hA3G protein levels and inhibited HCV replication in a dose-dependent manner. The results demonstrate that this series of substituted N-aryl benzamide compounds warrant further investigation as inhibitors of HCV replication
