This study conducted ice-induced vibration analysis on offshore platform structures using the cohesive element method (CEM). The efficacy of this method in simulating the interaction between sea ice and the platform structure is verified by comparing it with the Hamburg Ship Modeling Pool (HSVA) ice-breaking experiment. Subsequently, the vibration response of a sea-ice-jacket platform model is investigated under both unprotect...

The j allele delays flowering and enhances yield of long juvenile (LJ) soybean under short day (SD) condition. However, the underlying mechanism of j in flowering pathway of soybean is not fully known. The objective of the study is to profile the transcriptome of Huaxia-3 (HX3), a typical long juvenile soybean variety with a loss of function allele ( j ) for the J gene. This helps to identify the genes implicated in delayed fl...

Key message GmFULa improved soybean yield by enhancing carbon assimilation. Meanwhile, different from known yield-related genes, it did not alter flowering time or maturity. Abstract Soybean ( Glycine max (L.) Merr.) is highly demanded by a continuously growing human population. However, increasing soybean yield is a major challenge. FRUITFULL ( FUL ), a MADS-box transcription factor, plays important roles in multiple developm...
