The isolated trichomes maintained enzymatic activity and were used for DNA, protein, and RNA isolation. The RNA was used to generate probes suitable for Affymetrix analysis. The validity of the Affymetrix results was confirmed by quantitative PCR analysis on a subset of genes that are preferentially expressed in trichomes or leaves. Sufficient quantities of trichomes were isolated to probe the biochemical nature of trichome cell walls. These analyses provide evidence for the presence of lignin in Arabidopsis trichome cell walls. The monosaccharide analysis and positive staining with ruthenium red indicates that the walls also contain a large portion of pectin. The 2.23‐fold ratio of pectin‐related sugars compared with potential cellulosic glucose suggests that the polysaccharides of the trichome cell walls are more like those of typical primary walls even though the wall becomes quite thick. Overall, these analyses open the door to using the Arabidopsis trichome cell wall as an excellent model to probe various questions concerning plant cell wall biosynthesis.}, number={3}, journal={PLANT JOURNAL}, author={Marks, M.

Using simulation data, the authors first examine whether there is any empirical evidence for the use of a universal cutoff, and then compare the practice of using the point estimate of the RMSEA alone versus that of using it jointly with its related confidence interval. The results of the study demonstrate that there is little empirical support for the use of .05 or any other value as universal cutoff values to determine adequate model fit, regardless of whether the point estimate is used alone or jointly with the confidence interval. The authors' analyses suggest that to achieve a certain level of power or Type I error rate, the choice of cutoff values depends on model specifications, degrees of freedom, and sample size. }, number={4}, journal={SOCIOLOGICAL METHODS & RESEARCH}, author={Chen, Feinian and Curran, Patrick J. and Bollen, Kenneth A. and Kirby, James and Paxton, Pamela}, year={2008}, month={May}, pages={462–494} } @misc{chen_2008, title={Education and reform in China}, volume={37}, number={4}, journal={Contemporary Sociology}, author={Chen, F.

Using data from the Chinese Longitudinal Healthy Longevity Survey, the authors find that living arrangements have strong implications for elderly emotional health. First, living alone is associated with lower subjective well-being. Second, coresidence with immediate family (spouse or children) is associated with positive subjective well-being. Third, compared to living with a son, the traditionally dominant type of living arrangement, coresidence with a daughter appears positively linked to the emotional health of the oldest old. Results highlight the importance of family and cultural context to subjective well-being of the oldest old. They also suggest that the gendered nature of caregiving merits further attention in China and other patrilineal societies.}, number={10}, journal={JOURNAL OF FAMILY ISSUES}, author={Chen, Feinian and Short, Susan E.}, year={2008}, month={Oct}, pages={1379–1403} } @article{bollen_kirby_curran_paxton_chen_2007, title={Latent variable models under misspecification - Two-stage least squares (2SLS) and maximum likelihood (ML) estimators}, volume={36}, number={1}, journal={Sociological Methods & Research}, author={Bollen, K.

Longitudinal analysis of data from the China Health and Nutrition Survey showed that such job shifts affected the household division of labor in different directions and magnitude, depending upon which spouse changed jobs. If the husband changed from an agricultural to a non-agricultural job, he cut back on housework, thereby increasing the difference in the number of hours of housework each spouse performed. If the wife experienced such a job change, the reduction in her housework hours was twice that of her husband's, reducing the difference between their shares of household duties.}, number={2}, journal={SOCIAL FORCES}, author={Chen, FA}, year={2005}, month={Dec}, pages={831–851} } @article{chen_2005, title={Residential patterns of parents and their married children in contemporary China: A life course approach}, volume={24}, ISSN={["1573-7829"]}, DOI={10.1007/s11113-004-6371-9}, number={2}, journal={POPULATION RESEARCH AND POLICY REVIEW}, author={Chen, FN}, year={2005}, month={Apr}, pages={125–148} }
