Different origins of fragile exines within theAnnonaceae

Besides tectate and columellate, 3-layered exine types, in theAnnonaceae, one also finds very fragile, thin exine types. Their single exine layer corresponds either to a former tectum (including infratectal layer) or a former basal layer. The interpretation of the different origin of the remaining layers is based on their different structure and position within the intine. The fact that reduced exine types are obviously not always homologous should be regarded in systematic interpretations.     

Duet Vocalizations among Different Populations of Sulawesi Tarsiers

A most conspicuous vocal behavior of Sulawesi tarsiers is the loud calls that males and females coordinate into duets. Differences in the acoustic structure of this display relate to specific differentiation in Tarsius spectrum and T. dianae. More recent studies on dueting behavior indicated the existence of a new species of tarsiers on the Togian Islands in Tomini Bay. I analyzed the duet calls of the Togian tarsier to assess the differences in acoustic structure of duet calls between this putative new species and T. spectrum or T. dianae. Discriminant function analysis revealed that Togian tarsiers, T. spectrum and T. dianae, are clearly separated by acoustic characteristics in songs. The degree of separation of the Togian tarsiers from the mainland species support them being a distinct species.     

Different bacterial strategies to degrade taurocholate

Aerobic enrichment cultures with taurocholate or alkanesulfonates as sole sources of carbon and energy for growth were successful and yielded nine bacterial isolates, all of which utilized taurocholate. Growth was complex and involved not only many, usually transient, excretion products but also sorption of taurocholate and cholate to cells. Three metabolic strategies to dissimilate taurocholate were elucidated, all of which involved bile salt hydrolase cleaving taurocholate to cholate and taurine. Comamonas testosteroni KF-1 utilized both the taurine and the cholate moieties for growth. Pseudomonas spp., e.g. strain TAC-K3 and Rhodococcus equi TAC-A1 grew with the cholate moiety and released taurine quantitatively. Delftia acidovorans SPH-1 utilized the taurine moiety and released cholate.     

Different photoreceptors within the same retina express unique combinations of potassium channels

Single electrode current and voltage clamp recordings in Calliphora, and whole-cell voltage clamp recordings in Drosophila were used to characterise the voltage-gated K channels in both major classes of photoreceptors, R7/8 (long visual fibres, LVFs) and R1-6 (short visual fibres, SVFs). R7/8 were identified by their unique spectral properties, ca. 3–4 fold higher input resistances and 3–4 fold lower cell capacitance. In Calliphora SVFs possess both fast and slow activating delayed rectifier potassium conductances. Drosophila SVFs possess a slowly inactivating delayed rectifier (I_Ks), a very rapidly inactivating A channel encoded by the Shaker gene (I_A), and, in a minority of cells, a third K conductance with intermediate kinetics (I_Kf). In both specs the LVFs lack the slowest component, but exhibit the faster K conductance(s) with properties indistinguishable from those in the SVFs. These findings add to established evidence demonstrating the significant role played by potassium channels in tuning the photoreceptor membrane. The results also suggest that R1-6 photoreceptors and R7/8 form inputs to visual subsystems tuned to different temporal frequencies.Abbreviations LVF long visual fibre - SVF short visual fibre - R1-6 retinular cells 1 to 6 inclusive - R7/8 retinular cell 7 and 8 - I _A rapidly inactivating A type potassium conductance; channel coded by Shaker gene - I _Kf rapidly activating, slowly inactivating delayed rectifier-like potassium conductance - I _Ks slowly activating, slowly inactivating delayed rectifier-like potassium conductance - I _KDs slowly activating delayed rectifier potassium conductance - I _KDf rapidly activating delayed rectifier potassium conductance     

Different Functional and Structural Properties of Lactate Dehydrogenase Isozymes at Different Stages of Danio rerioOntogenesis

We studied properties of lactate dehydrogenase isozymes expressed at different stages of Danio rerioontogenesis. H₄-LDH and a minor fraction H₃M₁are expressed during embryonic development. The muscle isozyme (₄) appears after the beginning of muscle contractions in the embryo. ₄and ₄isozymes isolated from the heart and skeletal muscle of the adult fish, respectively, show significant differences in terms of Michaelis constant (K _m) activation energy (AE), and inactivation temperature. H₄-LDH isozymes isolated from unfertilized eggs, the skeletal muscle of larvae, and the heart of the adult fish differ inK _mand activation energy, as well as in inactivation temperature. We propose that these differences may be associated with a ligand interacting with the H₄isozyme at different steps of ontogenesis.     

Different antimetabolic effects of related lectins towards nymphal stages ofNilaparvata lugens

Insect feeding trials were carried out to determine the effects of a range of mannose-specific lectins on third instar nymphs of the rice brown planthopper (BPH), Nilaparvata lugens. Stål. Dose response curves show that Galanthus nivalis agglutinin (GNA) has the strongest toxic effect of the lectins tested, and is effective at concentrations considerably lower than those previously reported. Narcissus pseudonarcissus agglutinin (NPA) and Allium sativum agglutinin (ASA) exhibit a significant antimetabolic effect towards the insect but were less effective (on a molar basis) than GNA. LC₅₀ values for GNA, NPA and ASA are approximately 4 μM, 11 μM and >40 μM respectively. These mannose-specific lectins are serologically identical, but differ in the number of subunits per protein molecule; ASA is a dimer, NPA is a trimer and GNA is a tetramer. The results obtained support the hypothesis, that the effectiveness of the mannose-binding lectins as antimetabolites is determined by the number of subunits per molecule. Two N-acetylglucosamine binding lectins, the dimeric Oryza sativa agglutinin (OSA) and the monomeric Urtica dioica agglutinin (UDA), were also tested but at a concentration of 0.1% w/v exhibited no significant antimetabolic effect towards BPH, although the related lectin wheatgerm agglutinin (WGA) has previously been demonstrated to be toxic towards the insect.     

Comparison of Genomes in Streptococcus thermophilus Strains of Different Origin

According to DNA hybridization data, thermophilic streptococci used in Russia as starters in the dairy industry are divided into six different genomovars, with a degree of DNA homology not exceeding 20–50%. The analysis of genomes from these genomovars using SmaI restriction endonuclease and pulsed-field gel electrophoresis revealed wide variability of the genome size. In some strains, the genome size considerably exceeded 2000 kbp. Most of the strains studied contained plasmids about 120 kbp in size.     

Electrophoretic Variants of Intracellular Catalase of Different Candida Species

Intracellular and extracellular catalases of different species of Candida were investigated using different culture media. All the Candida strains produced intracellular catalase, whose enzymatic activity was detected by non-denaturating polyacrylamide gradient (4-30%) gel electrophoresis. The cell extracts presented a major 230 kDa catalase band and in some strains variants of catalase with different molecular weights were detected. Candida catalase activity was not affected by heating at 50 degrees C and incubation with beta-mercaptoethanol, but treatment with sodium dodecyl sulphate inhibited or reduced enzymatic activity. Extracellular enzyme activity was not detected in any of the culture filtrate extracts tested.     

Effects of Different Wetland Plant Species on Fresh Unweathered Sulphidic Mine Tailings

Vegetation cover with two Eriophorum species on old unweathered sulphidic mine tailings has earlier been found to reduce the element levels and to prevent production of acidity in drainage water. The present study aims to find out if Carex rostrata Stokes, Eriophorum angustifolium Honck. and Phragmites australis (Cav.) Steud. had other effects on metal and As release in fresh unweathered sulphidic mine tailings, if the species showed different effects and if this depended on plant mechanisms such as O₂, carbonate or organic acid release. Plants were grown in pots with fresh sulphidic mine tailings for 13 months. Arsenic, Cd, Cu, Fe, Pb, Zn, pH, SO ₄ ²⁻ , alkalinity and organic acids in the drainage water as well as metals and As in roots and shoot and O₂ and redox potential in pore water were analysed. The tailings weathered slowly due to high buffering capacity thus no pH decrease was found and therefore similar buffering effects by plants as shown in the previous investigation could not be found. The plants increased the total release of metals and As from the tailings. The release did not depend on carbonate or organic acid release from plants. However, the Fe and As release was due to changed redox potential, caused by O₂ release, and high concentration of Fe and As was found in plant roots. Phragmites australis released more As and Fe but less Cd than E. angustifolium and C. rostrata which make P. australis not suitable for plant establishment on sulphidic mine tailings containing high levels of As. Plants did take up the elements and the lowest translocation of elements to the shoot was found in P. australis while the highest in E. angustifolium.     

不同代次牛成肌细胞的诱导分化及相关基因的表达分析

利用初生荷斯坦牛的成肌细胞,在不同代次以含体积分数为2%马血清的DMEM进行诱导分化,在之后0、2、4、6、8、10 d观察细胞的形态变化并收集细胞提取总RNA,检测成肌相关基因的表达情况,为进一步研究牛肌肉发生过程及相关基因的表达调控提供依据。同时利用实时荧光定量PCR分别检测肌性相关基因MyoD(生肌决定因子)、MyoG(肌细胞生成素)以及非肌性相关基因A-FABP(脂肪细胞型脂肪酸结合蛋白)表达水平的变化。研究表明：①各代细胞在诱导培养4 d后开始有肌管形成,其后越来越多,8 d时达高峰。②成肌细胞向成熟肌细胞分化过程中,MyoD、MyoG、A-FABP基因都呈先上升然后下降的趋势。③高代次成肌细胞比低代次细胞增殖慢,而且在诱导分化后,肌管的数目明显变少; MyoD、MyoG、A-FABP随着代次的升高而下降。故推断MyoD、MyoG以及A-FABP基因会在成肌分化开始后的不同阶段被激活,从而发挥不同的调控作用,而且随着传代次数的增加成肌细胞的分化能力减弱。
