    Abstract: The growing region of herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora) has been severely constrained due to the intensification of global warming and extreme weather events, especially at low latitudes. Assessing and selecting stress-tolerant and high-quality peony germplasm is essential for maintaining the normal growth and application of peonies under adverse conditions. This study proposed a modified multi-criteria decision-making (MCDM) model for assessing peonies adapted to low-latitude climates based on our previous study. This model is low-cost, timesaving and suitable for screening the adapted peony germplasm under hot and humid climates. The evaluation was conducted through the analytic hierarchy process (AHP), three major criteria, including adaptability-related, ornamental feature-related and growth habits-related criteria, and eighteen sub-criteria were proposed and constructed in this study. The model was validated on fifteen herbaceous peonies cultivars from different latitudes. The results showed that ‘Meiju’, ‘Hang Baishao’, ‘Hongpan Tuojin’ and ‘Bo Baishao’ were assessed as Level I, which have strong growth adaptability and high ornamental values, and were recommended for promotion and application at low latitudes. The reliability and stability of the MCDM model were further confirmed by measuring the chlorophyll fluorescence of the selected adaptive cultivars ‘Meiju’ and ‘Hang Baishao’ and one maladaptive cultivar ‘Zhuguang’. This study could provide a reference for the introduction, breeding and application of perennials under everchanging unfavorable climatic conditions.

    Abstract: The microstructure of carbon fiber–reinforced carbon-matrix composites (carbon/carbon composites) has important effects on its ablation performance. However, the traditional macro-ablation methods have underestimated the ablation recession rate and ignored the influence of microstructure. To simulate the ablation of large-sized structures while accounting for the influence of microstructure, it is necessary to modify these methods. In this work, a thermochemical ablation model for carbon/carbon composites is proposed based on the evolution behavior of their microstructure. The ablation recession rate and surface temperature predicted by this model are in good agreement with the experimental results. Through numerical analysis, we found that the ablation recession rate of the material without carbon fibers is much greater than that of the material containing carbon fibers. The ablation recession rate is influenced by the fiber orientation due to the change in thermal conductivity. The anti-ablation efficiency of carbon/carbon composites can be improved by increasing their fiber radius, radiation coefficient, specific heat capacity, interphase density, and thermal conductivity coefficient. The thermochemical ablation model provides a guide for the design of better anti-ablation carbon/carbon composites.

    Abstract: The introduction of herbaceous peony (Paeonia lactiflora Pall.) in low-latitude areas is of great significance to expand the landscape application of this world-famous ornamental. With the hazards of climate warming, warm winters occurs frequently, which makes many excellent northern herbaceous peony cultivars unable to meet their chilling requirements (CR) and leads to their poor growth and flowering in southern China. Exploring the endodormancy release mechanism of underground buds is crucial for improving low-CR cultivar screening and breeding. A systematic study was conducted on P. lactiflora ‘Meiju’, a screened cultivar with a typical low-CR trait introduced from northern China, at the morphological, physiological and molecular levels. The CR value of ‘Meiju’ was further verified as 677.5 CUs based on the UT model and morphological observation. As a kind of signal transducer, reactive oxygen species (ROS) released a signal to enter dormancy, which led to corresponding changes in carbohydrate and hormone metabolism in buds, thus promoting underground buds to acquire strong cold resistance and enter endodormancy. The expression of important genes related to ABA metabolism, such as NCED3, PP2C, CBF4 and ABF2, reached peaks at the critical stage of endodormancy release (9 January) and then decreased rapidly; the expression of the GA2ox8 gene related to GA synthesis increased significantly in the early stage of endodormancy release and decreased rapidly after the release of ecodormancy (23 January). Cytological observation showed that the period when the sugar and starch contents decreased and the ABA/GA ratio decreased was when ‘Meiju’ bud endodormancy was released. This study reveals the endodormancy regulation mechanism of ‘Meiju’ buds with the low-CR trait, which lays a theoretical foundation for breeding new herbaceous peony cultivars with the low-CR trait.
