Materials science

In this work, leveraging the enhanced wear resistance, toughness, and renewability of luffa fiber, pretreated luffa fiber was applied into cement mortar to investigate the impact of different fiber contents and sizes on mortar performance.…

Dynamics of Cry1Ac protein and soil enzyme activity in the rhizosphere of transgenic Bt oilseed rape Open

Zhengjun Guan, Wei Wei, Yan-lin Huo, C. Neal Stewart, Zhi‐Xi Tang · 2024

Biology

In this study, three insect-resistant transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) oilseed rape events (GT1, GT5 and GT9) under field conditions were utilised to analyse the dynamics of Cry1Ac protein and the changes in soil enzyme activities in…

Proteomic Analysis of Bt cry1Ac Transgenic Oilseed Rape (Brassica napus L.) Open

Zhengjun Guan, Min Zheng, Zhi‐Xi Tang, Wei Wei, C. Neal Stewart · 2023

Biology

Oilseed rape (Brassica napus L.) is an important cash crop, but transgenic oilseed rape has not been grown on a commercial scale in China. It is necessary to analyze the characteristics of transgenic oilseed rape before commercial cultivat…

Effect of Transgenic Cotton Expressing Bt Cry1Ac or Cry1Ab/Ac Toxins on Lacewing Larvae Mediated by Herbivorous Insect Pests Open

Zhengjun Guan, Qiuju Zhou, Hong Shi, Zhi‐Xi Tang, Biao Liu , et al. · 2022

Biology

A simple food chain (plant, insect pests, and predatory arthropods) in an agro-ecosystem was set up here as a model system to elucidate the potential effect of transgenic Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) cotton on non-target organisms. The syst…
