    Notes: Abstract An essential assumption underlying markerbased prediction of hybrid performance is a strong linear correlation between molecular marker heterozygosity and hybrid performance or heterosis. This study was intended to investigate the extent of the correlations between molecular marker heterozygosity and hybrid performance in crosses involving two sets of rice materials, 9 indica and 11 japonica varieties. These materials represent a broad spectrum of the cultivated rice gene pool including landraces, primitive cultivars, historically important cultivars, modern elite cultivars and parents of superior hybrids. Varieties within each set were intermated in all possible nonreciprocal pairs resulting in 36 crosses in the indica set and 55 in the japonica set. The F1s and their parents, 111 entries in total, were examined for performance of seven traits in a replicated field trial. The parents were surveyed for polymorphisms using 96 RFLP and ten SSR markers selected at regular intervals from a published molecular marker linkage map. Molecular marker genotypes of the F1 hybrids were deduced from the parental genotypes. The analysis showed that, with very few exceptions, correlations in the indica dataset were higher than in that of their japonica counterparts. Among the seven traits analyzed, plant height showed the highest correlation between heterozygosity and hybrid performance and heteorsis in both indica and japonica datasets. Correlations were low to intermediate between hybrid performance and heterozygosity (both general and specific) in yield and yield component traits in both indica and japonica sets, and also low to intermediate between specific heterozygosity and heterosis in the indica set, whereas very little correlation was detected between heterosis and heterozygosity (either general or specific) in the japonica set. In comparison to the results from our previous studies, we concluded that the relationship between molecular marker heterozygosity and heterosis is variable, depending on the genetic materials used in the study, the diversity of rice germplasms and the complexity of the genetic basis of heterosis.

    Notes: Abstract  The partial sterility of hybrids between the indica and japonica rice subspecies of Asian cultivated rice is a serious constraint for utilizing inter-subspecific heterosis in hybrid rice breeding. In this study, we have investigated the relationship between molecular-marker polymorphism and indica-japonica hybrid fertility using a diallel set involving 20 rice accessions including 9 indica and 11 japonica varieties. Spikelet fertility of the resulting 190 F1s and their parents was examined in a replicated field trial. Intra-subspecific hybrids showed much higher spikelet fertility than inter-subspecific hybrids except in crosses involving wide-compatibility varieties. The parents were surveyed for DNA polymorphism using 96 RFLP and ten SSR markers, which revealed extensive genetic differentiation between indica and japonica varieties. A large number of markers detected highly significant effects on hybrid fertility. The chromosomal locations for many of the positive markers coincided well with previously identified loci for hybrid sterility. The correlation between hybrid fertility and parental distance was low in both intra- and inter-subspecific crosses. The results suggest that the genetic basis of indica-japonica hybrid sterility is complex. It is the qualitative, rather than the quantitative, difference between the parents that determines the fertility of hybrids.

    Notes: Abstract Genetic polymorphisms of ten microsatellite DNA loci were examined among 238 accessions of landraces and cultivars that represent a significant portion of the distribution range for both indica and japonica groups of cultivated rice. In all, 93 alleles were identified with these ten markers. The number of alleles varied from a low of 3 or 4 at each of four loci, to an intermediate value of 9–14 at five loci, and to an extra-ordinarily high 25 at one locus. The numbers of alleles per locus are much larger than those detected using other types of markers. The number of alleles detected at a locus is significantly correlated with the number of simple sequence repeats in the targeted microsatellite DNA. Indica rice has about 14% more alleles than japonica rice, and such allele number differences are more pronounced in landraces than in cultivars. The indica-japonica differentiation component accounted for about 10% of the diversity in the total sample, and twice as much differentiation was detected in cultivars as in landraces. About two-thirds as many alleles were observed in cultivars as in landraces; another two-thirds of the alleles in the cultivar group were found in modern elite cultivars or parents of hybrid rice. The majority of the simple sequence repeat (SSR) alleles that were present in high or intermediate frequencies in landraces ultimately survived into modern elite cultivars and hybrids. The greater resolving power and the efficient production of massive amounts of SSR data may be particularly useful for germplasm assessment and evolutionary studies of crop plants.

    Derivation of 3-D surface deformation from an integration of InSAR and GNSS measurements based on Akaike's Bayesian Information Criterion (2015)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2015-11-25
    Description: We present a new method to derive 3-D surface deformation from an integration of interferometric synthetic aperture radar (InSAR) images and Global Navigation Satellite System (GNSS) observations based on Akaike's Bayesian Information Criterion (ABIC), considering relationship between deformations of neighbouring locations. This method avoids interpolated errors by excluding the interpolation of GNSS into the same spatial resolution as InSAR images and harnesses the data sets and the prior smooth constraints of surface deformation objectively and simultaneously by using ABIC, which were inherently unresolved in previous studies. In particular, we define surface roughness measuring smoothing degree to evaluate the performance of the prior constraints and deduce the formula of the covariance for the estimation errors to estimate the uncertainty of modelled solution. We validate this method using synthetic tests and the 2008 M w 7.9 Wenchuan earthquake. We find that the optimal weights associated with ABIC minimum are generally at trade-off locations that balance contributions from InSAR, GNSS data sets and the prior constraints. We use this method to evaluate the influence of the interpolated errors from the Ordinary Kriging algorithm on the derivation of surface deformation. Tests show that the interpolated errors may contribute to biasing very large weights imposed on Kriged GNSS data, suggesting that fixing the relative weights is required in this case. We also make a comparison with SISTEM method, indicating that our method allows obtaining better estimations even with sparse GNSS observations. In addition, this method can be generalized to provide a solution for situations where some types of data sets are lacking and can be exploited further to account for data sets such as the integration of displacements along radar lines and offsets along satellite tracks.

    A new hybrid inversion method for parametric curved faults and its application to the 2008 Wenchuan (China) earthquake (2016)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-03-20
    Description: Planar faults are widely adopted during inversions to determine slip distributions and fault geometries using geodetic observations; however, little research has been conducted with respect to curved faults. We attribute this to the lack of an appropriate parameterized modelling method. In this paper, we present a curved-fault modelling method (CFMM) that describes a curved fault according to specific parameters, and we also develop a corresponding hybrid iterative inversion algorithm (HIIA) to perform inversions for parametric curved-fault geometries and slips. The results of the strike-component and dip-component synthetic tests show that a complex S-shaped fault surface and a circular slip distribution are successfully recovered, indicating the strong performance of the CFMM and HIIA methods. In addition, we describe and verify a scenario for determining the number of necessary geometrical parameters for the HIIA and examine the case study of the Wenchuan earthquake, which occurred on a complex listric fault surface. During the iteration process of the HIIA, both the fault geometry and slip distribution of the Beichuan and Pengguan faults converge to optimal values, indicating a Beichuan fault (BCF) model with a continuous listric shape and gradual steepening from the southwest to the northeast, which is highly consistent with geological survey results. Both the synthetic and real-world case studies show that the HIIA and the CMFF are superior to the conventional fault modelling method based on rectangular planes and that these models have the potential for use in more integrated research involving inversion studies, such as joint slip/curved-fault-geometry inversions that take into account data resolving power.

    Evaluating mass loading products by comparison to GPS array daily solutions (2016)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2016-11-10
    Description: We evaluate the benefit of different global geophysical loading products on the internal scatter of GPS position time-series from 240 globally distributed sites. We focus on the non-tidal atmospheric pressure loading predicted from NASA's Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications (MERRA-NATML) and the European Center for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts operational model (ECMWF-NATML), non-tidal ocean loading predicted from the Ocean Model for Circulation and Tides model (OMCT-NTOL), and the continental water storage loading predicted from the MERRA model (MERRA-CWSL) and the GFZ's Land Surface Discharge Model (LSDM-CWSL), respectively. The result shows that the root mean square (RMS) discrepancy of different CWSL models is larger than that of NATML models in the vertical component due to the varying model parameters and input data choices. We discuss the performance of different loading models and their combination to reduce the weighted RMS of GPS up-coordinates. MERRA-NATML & OMCT-NTOL & MERRA-CWSL reduced the weighted RMS (WRMS) in 96 per cent (JPL solutions) and 86 per cent (SOPAC solutions) of the cases, and ECMWF-NATML & OMCT-NTOL & LSDM-CWSL reduced the WRMS in 95 per cent (JPL solutions) and 88 per cent (SOPAC solutions) of the cases. The result shows that local effects and technical uncertainties in GPS time-series hamper the meaningful comparison between GPS observations and mass loading models. Hence, simply using the RMS of the time-series as the assessment criteria may lead to biased comparison results. Nonetheless, we give a detailed comparison (differences in phase and amplitude at seasonal timescales) for eight representative stations located adjacent to great rivers, lakes and reservoirs. We find that LSDM can provide a complementary model to study the small-scale hydrological loading like loading extremes along river channels. However, such small-scale hydrological loading effects are still instable to be modelled in some regions with its current accuracy. Finally, we discuss the impacts of mass loading corrections on the velocity and noise estimates. The noise reductions have the consistent performance as WRMS reductions for most sites, whereas some sites have their noise increased even though GPS signal WRMS is decreased there, suggesting that our posterior correction is potentially feasible, but not sufficient.

    Enhancing real-time precise point positioning with zenith troposphere delay products and the determination of corresponding tropospheric stochastic models (2017)
    Oxford University Press
    Details
    Publication Date: 2017-01-07
    Description: By introducing two types of zenith troposphere delay (ZTD) products in precise point positioning (PPP), we developed the ZTD-corrected PPP and the ZTD-constrained PPP, both of them reduced the PPP convergence time. Both enhanced PPP methods are examined by global empirical ZTD models and regional ZTD corrections. For global ZTD models, we verified that ZTD-corrected PPP will deviate the positioning results, while ZTD-constrained PPP could produce unbiased estimations. Therefore, the latter is utilized to study the performance of global ZTD models (ITG, GPT2w, GZTD and UNB3m). After numerous experiments, we found that the performance of ZTD models was positively related to the real ZTD accuracy, and we proposed a universal tropospheric stochastic model 2SQR(9rms) which denotes double the square of nine times ZTD rms, to constrain ZTD in PPP. The proposed model subsequently was validated by real-time static and kinematic ZTD-constrained PPP on the premise that the ZTD rms on every station was known. Compared with traditional PPP, in static PPP, the number of improved stations is increased by 15.5 per cent (ITG), 14.4 per cent (GPT2w), 11.1 per cent (GZTD) and 8.3 per cent (UNB3m). For kinematic PPP, PPP constrained by ITG model still had the best performance, the number of improved stations is increased by 14.4 per cent, after 30 min of initialization time, 13.4 cm east, 13.4 cm north and 11.7 cm up positioning accuracy was obtained, compared with 15.3 cm east, 15.3 cm north and 14.3 cm up accuracy by traditional PPP. In addition, experiments using regional ZTD corrections to enhance real-time PPP showed that both ZTD-corrected PPP and ZTD-constrained PPP can notably reduce the convergence time on the vertical component (within 15 cm).
