W±H∓W^{\pm}H^{\mp} associated production at LHC in the general 2HDM with Spontaneous CP Violation

Spontaneous CP violation motivates the introduction of two Higgs doublets in the electroweak theory. Such a simple extension of the standard model has three neutral Higgs bosons and a pair charged Higgs, especially it leads to rich CP-violating sources including the induced Kobayashi-Maskawa CP-violating phase, the mixing of the neutral Higgs bosons due to the CP-odd Higgs and the effective complex Yukawa couplings of the charged and neutral Higgs bosons. Within this model, we present the production of a charged Higgs boson in association with a W boson at the LHC, and calculate in detail the cross section and the transverse momentum distribution of the associated W boson.Comment: 16 pages, 6 figures, omitted 3 figures, motivations for Type III 2HDM with SCPV is emphasized, to be published in PR

Tetra­aqua­(2-hy­droxy­acetato-κ2 O 1,O 2)magnesium nitrate

In the title complex, [Mg(C2H3O3)(H2O)4]NO3, the MgII cation is hexa­coordinated by four O atoms from water mol­ecules and two O atoms from a 2-hy­droxy­acetate ligand in a distorted octa­hedral coordination geometry. The structure exhibits a three-dimensional supra­molecular network, which is stabilized by nine different O—H⋯O hydrogen bonds

Poly[[(μ-1H-benzimidazole-5,6-dicarboxyl­ato)zinc(II)] monohydrate]

The three-dimensional polymeric title compound, {[Zn(C9H4N2O4)]·H2O}n, contains one crystallographically independent ZnII atom, one fully deprotonated 1H-benzimid­azole-5,6-dicarboxyl­ate (bdc) ligand and one uncoordinated water mol­ecule. The ZnII atom is four-coordinated by three O atoms and one N atom from the bdc ligands, giving a distorted tetra­hedral coordination geometry. The uncoordinated water mol­ecule is bound to the main structure through a strong bdc–water N—H⋯O hydrogen bond, and two much weaker water–bdc O—H⋯O inter­actions

Tetra-μ-acetato-κ4 O:O′;κ3 O,O′:O′;κ3 O:O,O′-bis­[(acetato-κ2 O,O′)(1,10-phenanthroline-κ2 N,N′)europium(III)]

In the title centrosymmetric dinuclear EuIII complex, [Eu2(CH3COO)6(C12H8N2)2], each EuIII cation is coordinated by seven O atoms from five acetate anions and two N atoms from one phenanthroline ligand in a distorted tricapped trigonal-prismatic geometry. Four acetate anions bridge two EuIII cations to form the dinuclear complex, with an Eu⋯Eu distance of 3.9409 (8) Å. Weak inter­molecular C—H⋯O hydrogen bonding is present in the crystal structure

Novel protocol to identify true hybrids in normal oleate x high oleate crosses in peanut

A novel hybrid identification protocol was developed for F0:1 peanut seeds resulting from crosses between normal oleate cultivars with wild type FAD2B gene and high oleate genotypes with an A insertion in FAD2B gene. Presence of a series of overlapped peaks in trace file of the PCR product amplified with bF19/R1 primers was an indication of hybridity. This protocol may facilitate high oleate breeding and genetic studies in peanut

Simple method to prepare DNA templates from a slice of peanut cotyledonary tissue for Polymerase Chain Reaction

An efficient DNA extraction method was developed for peanut seed, where only 3-5 mg cotyledonary tissue was enough for more than 50 PCR reactions with a reaction volume of 15 \u3bcl. Both low copy number and high copy number DNA sequences were successfully amplified. Processing one seed sample only took about half an hour. Sampling had no significant effects on germination and development. The DNA extraction method makes it possible to identify transformants and conduct molecular marker studies prior to sowing, and thus may greatly hasten research progress

Sodium azide mutagenesis resulted in a peanut plant with elevated oleate content

Screening of peanut seeds resulting from 0.39% sodium azide treatment with NIRS calibration equation for bulk seed samples identified a plant with more than 60% oleate. Oleate content in individual seeds of the plant, as predicted by NIRS calibration equation for intact single peanut seeds, ranged from 50.05% ~ 68.69%. Three seeds with >60% oleate thus identified were further confirmed by gas chromatography. Multiple sequence alignments of the FAD2B gene from Huayu 22 (wild type) and peanut seeds with elevated oleate (mutant type) revealed a C281T transition in the coding region causing an I94T substitution in the oleoyl-PC desaturase, which may be responsible for reduction in the enzyme activity
