关于东方蜡蝉属PYROPS SPINOLA的名称问题：（半翅目：蜡蝉总科：蜡蝉科：蜡蝉？

Ｌｉｎｎａｅｕｓ（１７５８,１７６４,１７６７）将产于南美的蜡蝉ｌａｔｅｒｎａｒｉａ和产于中国的蜡蝉ｃａｎｄｅｌａｒｉａ分别描记于Ｃｉｃａｄａ、Ｌａｔｅｒｎａｒｉａ和Ｆｕｌｇｏｒａ三个不同的属下,由此产生了命名学上的一个问题。一些学者将ｃａｎｄｅｌａｒｉａ及东洋区的相关种类归为Ｆｕｌｇｏｒａ下（如Ｄｉｓａｎｔ,１９０６,１９６１;Ｂａｋｅｒ,１９２５）;而另一些学者则将ｌａｔｅｒｎａｒｉａ及新热带

关于东方蜡蝉属PYROPS SPINOLA的名称问题(半翅目:蜡蝉总科:蜡蝉科)

Linnaeus (1758, 1764,1767) 将产于南美的蜡蝉laternaria和产于中国的蜡蝉candelaria 分别描记于 Cicada、Laternaria 和 Fulgora 三个不同的属下,由此产生了命名学上的一个问题.一些学者将 candelaria 及东洋区的相关种类归为 Fulgora 下(如 Distant, 1906, 1916; Baker, 1925);而另一些学者则将laternaria 及新热带区的相关种类归于 Fulgora 下(如 Metcalf, 1947).这一问题直到1954年经国际动物学命名委员会(ICZN,1954)裁决才得以解决.ICZN (1954)的决议包括:将 laternaria 作为Fulgora 的模式种及将新热带区的相关种类归于 Fulgora;Fulgora 为蜡蝉科的模式属;将 Laternaria 作为无效名,并以 Pyrops 取代,其模式种为 candelaria.然而,国际动物学命名委员会的这一决议并未得到一些学者的注意.例如,Lallemand (1963)在其"亚洲及澳大利亚的蜡蝉科的订正研究"中仍将东洋区种类归于蜡蝉属 Fulgora.在我国,Fulgora 则一直被广泛使用出现在研究论文(如周尧及王思政(见周尧、王思政及黄桔,1985))、教科书(如周尧,1980;古德祥及陈振跃,1980;袁锋及张雅林,1996)及一些区系专著中 (如周尧等,1985;周尧等,1987;李子忠,1987;彭建文及周石涓,1992).最近,日本学者 Sato & Nagai (1994)又描记了东南亚蜡蝉属 Fulgora 的四个新种和新亚种,并将锥头蜡蝉 Saiva cultellata (Walker)移入蜡蝉属 Fulgora.为了澄清命名学上的这一混淆,以保持名称的稳定性,本文给出了东方蜡蝉属 Pyrops 的全部种类名录,同时建立新组合50个,恢复原有组合12个,并将 Pyrops rhli Schmidt 修订为 Pyrops ruehli Schmidt.

Photoregulation of seed germination of wild-type and of an aurea-mutant of tomato

Seed germination of an aurea mutant of tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is promoted by continuous irradiation with red, far-red or long-wavelength far-red (758 nm) light as well as by cyclic irradiations (5 min red or 5 min far-red/25 min darkness). Far-red light applied immediately after each red does not change the germination behaviour. Seed germination of the isogenic wild-type, cv. UC-105, is promoted by continuous and cyclic red light while it is inhibited by continuous and cyclic far-red light and by continious 758 nm irradiation. Far-red irradiation reverses almost completely the promoting effect of red light. The promoting effect (in the aurea mutant) and the inhibitory effect (in the wild-type) of continuous far-red light do not show photon fluence rate dependency above 20 nmol m⁻² s⁻¹. It is concluded that phytochrome controls tomato seed germination throgh low energy responses in both the wild type and the au mutant. The promoting effect of continuous and cyclic far-red light in the au mutant can be attributed to a greater sensitivity to P_fr.

Cause of Senescence of Nine Sorts of Flowers

The levels of endogenous phytohormones and respiratory rate in nine sorts of flowers such as Cymbidium faberi Rolfe, Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth and others were investigated both at full bloom and senescence and meanwhile the effect of exogenous phytohormones on prolonging the blossoms and promoting ethylene production were tested. There is a high content of endogenous ethylene in all the long-lived flowere, about 3–16 folds higer than the short-lived ones. There is a high level of ABA at full blooming flowers of short-lived flowers, in which there is no or only some cytokinins in it, but the ratio of CTK (6BA+zeatin)/ABA is smaller(l.7). The endogenous ABA reached a much higher level at senescence in all nine sorts of flowers, so it is reasonable to consider that it is ABA which plays an important role of regulation in controlling flower's senescence. There is a much higher level of GA3 and zeatin in the long-lived flowers which is not demonstrated in the shortlived ones. The respiratory rate is one of the factors controtling the longevity of flowers, but it does not play a decided role. Application of 6BA and zeatin prolongs distinctly orchid’s longevity, however exogenous IAA through the promotive action on ethylene production, evidently extends the longevity of the flowers of the Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth.     

Interconnection of parameters of regulation system of lipid peroxidation and of morphophysiological parameters of mouse liver

A complex analysis of seasonal fluctuations of the mean group parameters of the system of regulation of lipid peroxidation has been performed in liver of Balb/c mice. Association of lipid characteristics and morphophysiological parameters is studied in the Balb/c mouse liver. An inter-connection is revealed between the liver index and the amount of lysoforms of phospholipids, the scale and character of the interconnection differing essentially depending on proportion of phos-phatidylcholine in mouse liver phospholipids.

Physiological characteristics of various species of strains of carboxydobacteria

Seven strains of aerobic carbon monoxide-oxidizing bacteria (carboxydebacteria) when growing on CO as sole source of carbon and energy had doubling times which ranged from 12–42 h. The activity profiles obtained after discontinuous sucrose density gradient centrifugation indicated that the CO-oxidizing enzymes are soluble and the hydrogenases are membrane-bound in all strains examined. The CO-oxidizing enzymes of Pseudomonas carboxydohydrogena, Pseudomonas carboxydoflava, Comamonas compransoris, and the so far unidentified strains OM2, OM3, and OM4 had a molecular weight of 230,000; that of Achromobacter carboxydus amounted to 170,000. The molecular weights of the CO-oxidizing and H₂-oxidizing enzymes turned out to be identical. The cell sonicates were shown to catalyze the oxidation of both CO and H₂ with methylene blue, thionine, phenazine methosulfate, toluylene blue, dichlorophenolindophenol, cytochrome c or ferricyanide as electron acceptors. Methyl viologen, benzyl viologen, FAD⁺, FMN⁺, and NAD(P)⁺ were not reduced. The spectrum of electron acceptors was identical for all strains tested. Neither free formate, hydrogen nor oxygen gas were involved in the CO-oxidation reaction. Methylene blue was reduced by CO at a 1:1 molar ratio. The results indicate that CO-oxidation by carboxydobacteria is catalyzed by identical or similar enzymes and that the reaction obeys the equation CO+H₂OCO₂+2H⁺+2e^- as previously shown for Pseudomonas carboxydovorans.Dedicated to Otto Kandler remembering almost three decades of enjoyable cooperation     

Modulation of allostery of pyruvate kinase by shifting of an ensemble of microstates

Since the introduction of the concepts of allostery about four decades ago, much advancement has been made in elucidating the structure-function correlation in allostery. However, there are still a number of issues that remain unresolved. In this review we used mammalian pyruvate kinase (PK) as a model system to understand the role of protein dynamics in modulating cooperativity. PK has a triosephosphate isomerase (TIM)(α/β)₈ barrel structural motif. PK is an ideal system to address basic questions regarding regulatory mechanisms about this common (α/β)₈ structural motif. The simplest model accounting for all of the solution thermodynamic and kinetic data on ligand-enzyme interactions involves two conformational states, inactive E^T and active E^R. These conformational states are represented by domain movements. Further studies provide the first evidence for a differential effect of ligand binding on the dynamics of the structural elements, not major secondary structural changes. These data are consistent with our model that allosteric regulation of PK is the consequence of perturbation of the distribution of an ensemble of states in which the inactive E^T and active E^R represent the two extreme end states. Sequence differences and ligands can modulate the distribution of states leading to alterations of functions. The future work includes: defining the network of functionally connected residues; elucidating the chemical principles governing the sequence differences which affect functions; and probing the nature of mutations on the stability of the secondary structural elements, which in turn modulate allostery.
