5-Aminolevulinic acid activates the MdWRKY71-MdMADS1 module to enhance anthocyanin biosynthesis in apple by Liuzi Zhang, Huihui Tao, Jianting Zhang, Yuyan An, Liangju Wang

“…Abstract 5-Aminolevulinic acid (ALA), as a natural plant growth regulator, is well known for promoting red fruit coloring by enhancing anthocyanin accumulation. However, the underlying mechanisms remain elusive. In this study, we firstly demonstrated that ALA upregulates gene expression of the transcription factor MdMADS1, which in turn directly binds to and activates transcription of the key anthocyanin biosynthetic genes, MdCHS and MdUFGT. …”

Accounting Method for Carbon Emission Obligation on Load Side of Power System Based on Peak Load Characteristics by HUANG Yanlu, HU Xudong, LIN Zhenfu, MA Xiyuan

“…To accurately estimate the carbon emission obligation of the user side of a new power system and promote the continuous development of low-carbon electricity， this study uses the node carbon intensity calculation method to characterize the carbon flow distribution of the system and preliminarily calculates the carbon emission obligation on the load side. Moreover， under the premise that the total carbon emission obligation allocation amount remains unchanged before and after correction， the initial carbon emission obligation on the load side is modified and analyzed based on an innovative combination of the comprehensive load method， where the peak load characteristics of the user at the current stage are fully considered. …”
