“…It was considered that before 2004 the primary manifestation of the disease on potato plants was caused by pathogen spores, generating on potato tubers. The first information about the revealing of the A2 mating type of P. infestans on potato in China was published in 1996 [18].The A2 mating type was found until 2007 in Gansu province [19].The sexual reproduction of P. infestans occurred in natural potato field in China was reported in 2001 [20].…”

Survival and germination of overwintering oospores of two strains from Gansu,China compared with two standard from Wageningen, the Netherlands of Phytophthora infestans were determined in 2010-2011. It was found that compatible mating strains of P. infestans A1 and A2 produce oospores abundantly in paired cultures on tomato-rye agar medium.The survival rate of overwintering was ranged from19.57% to 24.59%.The germination rate of overwintering was ranged from 3.58% to 8.49%, and there were no significant differences in germination rate of oospores between alternating light at day/night and whole darkness at day/night. Furthermore, the soil extract liquid was more suitable for oospore germination than distilled water.

“…Shang et al [44] proposed diagnosing the agricultural drought system vulnerability and established a drought vulnerability evaluation index and model based on agricultural production processes to assess drought vulnerability, using Xingtai County as an example. Shang et al [45] explored the issue of agricultural drought system recovery. They proposed a restoration evaluation framework, establishing a comprehensive index model by selecting factors, such as land resources, crop structure, rainfall, irrigation and productivity level, in order to evaluate the drought resilience in Xingtai, Hebei Province.…”

Drought control and resistance affect national food security. With this in mind, we studied five main grain-producing regions of China: Sanjiang Plain, Songnen Plain, Huang-Huai-Hai Plain, the middle Yangtze River and Jianghuai region and Sichuan Basin. Using GIS technology, we evaluated the comprehensive agricultural drought situation based on major crops, the basic drought resistance by integrating multiple indicators and the comprehensive drought resistance against background agricultural drought. We chose spring wheat, winter wheat, early rice, late rice, single-season rice and maize as the research objects and calculated a crop composite drought index to determine that the agricultural drought degree was highest in the Huang-Huai-Hai Plain and slightly lower in the Sanjiang and Songnen Plains. The drought degree was relatively low in the middle Yangtze River and Jianghuai region and the Sichuan Basin. A remarkable difference was observed in agricultural drought resistance among the grain-producing areas. The entire Sanjiang Plain had the lowest agricultural drought resistance, and that of the Songnen Plain was slightly higher. In the Sichuan Basin, many areas had lower and intermediate values of drought resistance. In the Huang-Huai-Hai Plain and middle Yangtze River and Jianghuai region, resistance was stronger. The ranking of comprehensive drought resistance from strongest to weakest was Huang-Huai-Hai Plain > middle Yangtze River and Jianghuai region > Sichuan Basin > Songnen Plain > Sanjiang Plain. Finally, the sensitivity analysis was carried out to discuss the sensitive factors significantly affecting the agricultural drought resistance.

“…Resilience evaluation methods mainly are MSE decision comprehensive index (Shang et al 2011), analytic hierarchy process (Sun et al 2011), fuzzy mathematics comprehensive evaluation (Zhao 2009), and variation coefficient method (Chen and Duan 2010). However, there are certain defects of the traditional evaluation method, which can easily generate problems including evaluation grading discretion, unreasonable results and subjective information factor missing (Fu 2006).…”

“…Holling (1973) creatively introduced resilience into the ecosystem stability and then the resilience research has been gradually recognized and accepted. The resilience mainly applied in the field of disaster (Shang et al 2011;Manfredi et al 2014); social ecology (Wang 2008;Perz et al 2013) and economic management behavior (Comfort 1994). Vergano and Nunes (2007) established conceptual framework to recognize and describe resilience components from the economic perspective, taking the Venetian Lagoon as an example to make empirical assessment of the economic losses from the flood; took several US Columbia Rivers as example to study and analyze the vulnerability of their water resource with various ecological physical and social economic index representing water supply, water demand, and water quality.…”

Research on evaluating water resource resilience based on projection pursuit classification model

Water is a fundamental natural resource while agriculture water guarantees the grain output, which shows that the utilization and management of water resource have a significant practical meaning. Regional agricultural water resource system features with unpredictable, self-organization, and non-linear which lays a certain difficulty on the evaluation of regional agriculture water resource resilience. The current research on water resource resilience remains to focus on qualitative analysis and the quantitative analysis is still in the primary stage, thus, according to the above issues, projection pursuit classification model is brought forward. With the help of artificial fish-swarm algorithm (AFSA), it optimizes the projection index function, seeks for the optimal projection direction, and improves AFSA with the application of self-adaptive artificial fish step and crowding factor. Taking Hongxinglong Administration of Heilongjiang as the research base and on the basis of improving AFSA, it established the evaluation of projection pursuit classification model to agriculture water resource system resilience besides the proceeding analysis of projection pursuit classification model on accelerating genetic algorithm. The research shows that the water resource resilience of Hongxinglong is the best than Raohe Farm, and the last 597 Farm. And the further analysis shows that the key driving factors influencing agricultural water resource resilience are precipitation and agriculture water consumption. The research result reveals the restoring situation of the local water resource system, providing foundation for agriculture water resource management.
