This utility model relates to the field of poison bait boxes, and in particular to a poison bait box capable of online monitoring of rodent infestations. It includes a bait box body and a detachable poison storage assembly installed inside it. The poison storage assembly includes a storage box and multiple baffles. A storage cavity is formed at the top of the storage box. A first sliding hole is formed on two opposite sides of one set of the storage box, and a second sliding hole is formed on two opposite sides of the other set. The first sliding hole is located above the second sliding hole. The baffles are slidably connected to the corresponding first and second sliding holes. In this utility model, when the poison bait box is tilted or flipped, the baffles slide down along the first and second sliding holes under gravity, cooperating with a limiting plate to seal the storage cavity and prevent the poison bait from scattering. This dynamic sealing mechanism ensures that the poison bait is only exposed when rats ingest it, remaining sealed under other circumstances, reducing the risk of non-target organisms coming into contact with the poison bait and improving the safety of the poison bait box.

A method and application for cultivating a Huanglongbing-resistant plant is provided. CsPUB21 attenuates a defense response of citrus based on terpene compounds through direct ubiquitination and degradation of a CsMYC2 protein. Resistance of citrus to a pathogen CLas and a spread vector thereof, i.e. Asian Diaphorina citri Kuwayama, can be improved by silencing of a CsPUB21 gene. Infestation of the pathogen CLas can be reduced by overexpression of CsPUB21DN, a dominant negative mutant of PUB21. Additionally, the CLas concentration in leaves of a susceptible plant can be effectively reduced by artificially replacing an amino acid Cys (TGC) at position 39 of a key enzyme activation site of CsPUB21 in the susceptible plant with Ala (GCC) via gene editing. This method and application provide a means to effectively resist the replication and spread of Huanglongbing pathogens, which cause citrus greening.

This invention discloses a fully dry, bio-resistant optical cable and its manufacturing equipment and method. The manufacturing equipment includes an extrusion mold mechanism and a gas-filled molding mechanism. The extrusion mold mechanism includes a die head, a splitter cone, a mold core, a mold cover, and a fiber guide tube. The splitter cone is used to connect to the sleeve inlet and is installed in the central cone hole of the die head. The mold core is installed inside the splitter cone. In this invention, when the loose tube is formed at the mold cover, it is filled with gas. This ensures that there is no adhesion between the optical fiber, the water-blocking yarn of the sleeve, and the inner wall of the loose tube, guaranteeing the long-term stability of the optical fiber's transmission performance and excess length. The gas support also ensures the roundness of the loose tube. This solves the problem of unstable excess length and substandard roundness caused by frictional contact due to the lack of grease in fully dry optical cables.
