    摘要: Compositions and methods useful in identifying and counter-selecting maize plants with having enhanced yield-related traits relative to control plants under abiotic stress conditions such as salt stress and/or drought are provided herein. The methods use molecular genetic markers to identify, select and/or construct salt stress tolerant and/or drought tolerant maize plants. Also provided are methods to enhance tolerance to salt stress and/or drought in crop plants by transforming crop plants with the Zea mays antiporter/sodium ion transporter or by introducing favorable allelic variants of the Zea mays antiporter/sodium ion transporter gene via gene editing.

    摘要: Polyoxymethylene compositions, articles comprising these compositions, and processes of making the compositions, comprising: a) at least one polyoxymethylene polymer; b) about 0.1 to about 5 wt. % of poly alpha-1,3-glucan having a d90 particle size of 50 microns or less; c) optionally, at least one additive selected from the group consisting of nucleating agents, waxes, ultraviolet stabilizers, colorants, antioxidants, formaldehyde scavengers, lubricants, and mixtures of these; wherein an article molded from said polyoxymethylene composition exhibits a formaldehyde emission of 1 weight percent or less when measured according to TEF test method.
