Multiple cropping has a long history in China, and been used widely in other countries of the world. Be-cause the multiple cropping of medicinal plants (MCMP) partially alleviates land-use contradiction between medici-nal plants and crops, this cropping system is an optimization for cultivation pattern of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), and important for sustainable development of TCM resources. In this paper, we reviewed the concept, devel-opment history, theoretical basis, and main patterns about MCMP, analyzed the effect of multiple cropping on growth, yield, effective components, pest and disease control of medicinal plants, evaluated the ecological and economic ben-efits of MCMP, and discussed issues and prospects in the research of MCMP. This information can be useful for the medicinal plant cultivators.

Objective To investigate the value of diffusion weighted magnetie resonance imaging and apparent diffusion coefficient (ADC) value in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.MethodsThe clinical data of 36 patients with pancreatie cancer who were admitted to the Wuxi No.2 People's Hospital from March 2009 to June 2011 were retrospectively analyzed,and the clinical data of 30 healthy volunteers were collected.All candidates received diffusion weighted magnetie resonance imaging examination.The signal intensity ratios ( SIRs ) of the cancer and the pericancerous tissues in the T1 weighted-images (T1WI),T2 weighted-images (T2WI)and diffusion weighted-images (DWI) were compared by using one-way analysis of variance.The ADC values of the cancer and the paricancerous tissues were compared using the paired t test.The differences of the ADC values of the cancer and pericancerous tissues compared with those of healthy individuals were analyzed using an independent sample t test.ResultsThe accuracy rate of preoperative magnetic resonance imaging examination was 92%.The relative SIRs were 0.203 ± 0.190 in the T2 WI,0.399 ± 0.201 in the T1 WI and 0.579 ± 0.291 in the DWI,respectively,with no significant differences across the 3 kinds of images (F=5.92,6.15,6.83,P < 0.05 ),while SIRs of the T1 WI and DWI were significantly higher than that of the T2 WI ( P < 0.05 ).There was no significant difference in SIRs when comparing T1 WI and DWI ( P > 0.05 ).The mean ADC values of the cancer and pericancerous tissues of the pancreatic cancer patients and the pancreatic tissues of healthy individuals were (1.40±0.24) ×10 3 mm2/s,(1.71 ±0.10) ×10-3 mm2/s and (1.73±0.30) ×10-3 mm2/s,respectively,with significant differences across the 3 modes of images (t =10.54,12.08,P < 0.05).ConclusionDWI can show high quality images of the lesions,and ADC value is helpful in the diagnosis of pancreatic cancer.

Objective To investigate the influence of illumination changes on the drosophila circadian rhythm and 24 h sleep time.Methods We collect the unmated fruit flies (a total of 128,single-sex) under CO2 anesthesia within 8 hours of eclosion.And put them into the group of normal light group,day and night reversed group,24 h light group and 24 h dark group with the simple random sampling method,male and female with 4 single-sex groups(n=32).Change the illumination conditions of the living environment of the fruit flies and use Drosophila Activity Monitoring System (DAMS) and Data Acquisition System (DAS),to observe and compare the changes of drosophila circadian rhythm and 24 h sleep time between the different illumination conditions.Results Compared with the normal light group,drosophila circadian rhythm of the day and night reversed group was significantly reversed,the number of fruit flies' activities of 24 h light group was increased,and circadian rhythm was decline,drosophila circadian rhythm of the 24 h dark group is still there,but frequent activity appears during the day,and the 19 : 00 activity peak disappears.Conclusion The drosophila circadian rhythm and 24 h sleep time changes with illumination conditions change.
