Title: Rubber tire gantry crane with shore power
Inventor: ICHIMURA KINYA
IPC: H02J50/10
Filed: 2008-06-24
Abstract: An apparatus for coupling power from shore power to a rubber tire gantry (RTG) crane comprises a power junction trolley and optionally an RTG crane. The power junction trolley receives power through a high voltage cable or alternatively through an inductive power coupling and alternatively outputs a low AC or a low DC voltage through a flexible power cable for connection to an RTG crane. A guiding apparatus directs the power junction trolley along a selected path so as to reduce a control accuracy requirement for the RTG crane. The RTG crane may move from a selected path to another selected path without interrupting a high voltage connection. The power junction trolley optionally determines its position relative to a selected path comprising a guide rail in some embodiments and a guide wire in others. Embodiments of the power junction trolley are alternately self-propelled or towed by the RTG crane.

IPC: A01H1/00
Filed: 2008-02-21
Abstract: Blackleg is the most devastating disease in several major canola producing areas worldwide and the most effective means to control this disease is through the development of disease resistance cultivars. To exploit the blackleg disease resistance genes more efficiently, a dominant disease resistance gene LepR3 in 'Surpass 400' was targeted through map-based gene cloning. Using a previously reported ultradense genetic recombination map with over 13500 sequence-related amplified polymorphism (SRAP) markers as a platform, several SRAP markers on the map were found to be linked closely to the LepR3 gene. After sequencing these SRAP markers and performing BLAST analysis with the sequences, the corresponding syntenic regions in Arabidopsis were pinpointed. Chromosome walking with the syntenic regions as a reference allowed the identification of a gene that encodes a receptor-like kinase with transmembrane and leucine-rich repeats (LRR) domains, bearing the hallmarks of some resistance (R) genes identified in other plant species.
