2,2′-Bis(all­yloxy)-1,1′-binaphth­yl

The complete mol­ecule of the title compound, C26H22O2, is generated by a crystallographic twofold rotation axis. The dihedral angle between the planes of the two symmetry-related naphthalene ring systems is 69.05 (4)°, while that between the naphthalene ring system and the allyl plane is 13.7 (2)°. No hydrogen bonds or aromatic π–π stacking inter­actions are observed

A bibliometric analysis of global research on genome sequencing from 1991 to 2010 Yidan

This study was carried out to evaluate the global scientific production of genome sequencing research to assess the characteristics of the research performances and the research tendencies. Data were obtained from Science Citation Index Expanded database during 1991-2010. Conventional methods including document types, journals, categories, countries and institutions were used to analyze publication output to reveal the global performance. The development of genome sequencing research during last 20 years was described by synthetically analyzing the distribution of words in article title, author keywords, and KeyWords Plus in different periods. The results show that disease and protein related researches were the leading research focuses, and comparative genomics and evolution related research had strong potential in the near future.Key words: Genome sequencing, research trend, scientometrics, science citation index expanded (SCI-Expanded), word cluster analysis, keywords

Baryons in the light-front approach: the three-quark picture

In this work, a three-quark picture is constructed using a bottom-up approach for baryons in light-front quark model. The shape parameters, which characterize the momentum distribution inside a baryon, are determined with the help of the pole residue of the baryon. The relation between the three-quark picture and the diquark picture is clarified. In model construction, we find that Lorentz boost effect plays an important role, and the bottom-up modeling approach can be generalized to multiquark states. Based on this, a unified theoretical framework for describing multiquark states may be established. As a by-product of model construction, we can easily obtain a new and possibly better definition of baryon interpolating current. The hadron interpolating currents are the starting point of Lattice QCD and QCD sum rules, and therefore have important significance.Comment: 17 page

Identification and pathogenicity of Aeromonas veronii isolated from sexually mature female Hypophthalmichthys molitrix

An outbreak of bacterial septicemia in female silver carp *Hypophthalmichthys molitrix*, which caused significant death of the fish in the Yantian Reservoir, was investigated. The pathogen was isolated from diseased fish and identified as *Aeromonas veronii* utilizing biochemical characteristics and molecular methods analyses. An artificial infection experiment indicated that the strain caused 100% mortality of juvenile silver carp and mature female fish with eggs but no death of the mature male fish. Silver carp challenged with *A. veronii* showed similar clinical signs with naturally infected fish. The histopathological study revealed that *A. veronii* infection caused the increment of hemosiderin granules and the vacuole formation in tissues of the spleen and livers, as well as the collapse, deformation, and disintegration of egg cells. The ACP, AKP, and CAT enzyme activities in the serum of both naturally and artificially infected silver carp were decreased significantly with the severe infection. In this study, *A. veronii* was isolated and identified as the primary bacterial pathogen causing the mass death of sexually mature female silver carp with eggs in Yantian Reservoir
