土壤干旱条件下氮素营养对玉米内源激素含量影响

在田间持水量分别保持于35％、55％和75％±5％的土壤水分条件下,利用盆栽实验研究了土壤干旱和氮素营养对玉米内源激素和气孔导度的影响．结果表明,土壤干旱下氮素营养明显降低了玉米根系木质部汁液ABA浓度,而正常供水下施氮处理间则无显著差异(施氮处理仍较低),同时测定的叶片ABA浓度则呈相反的变化趋势,表现为干旱下施氮处理要高于不施氮处理;施氮处理木质部汁液中ZRs浓度应低于相应的不施氮处理,在调控气孔行为方面并未表现拮抗ABA作用;3种土壤水分条件下,施氮玉米叶片的气孔导度均高于不施氮处理,与木质部汁液ABA浓度呈负相关,说明施氮处理较低的根源ABA浓度是导致其气孔导度较大的主要原因．     

低镁胁迫对低温下黄瓜幼苗光合特性和抗氧化系统的影响

以‘津优3号’黄瓜幼苗为试材,以Hoagland全营养液处理为对照(CK),研究低镁(30％Mg)胁迫对低温(昼/夜温度12℃/8℃)下黄瓜幼苗光合特性和抗氧化系统的影响.结果表明:低温下30％Mg处理黄瓜幼苗叶片Mg含量显著低于CK,而根中Mg含量与CK差异不显著.随着低温胁迫时间的延长,黄瓜幼苗叶片的叶绿素含量、净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(gs)和羧化效率(CE)逐渐降低,胞间CO2浓度(Ci)趋于升高.与CK相比,低温下30％ Mg处理叶片叶绿素含量、Pn、gs和CE显著降低,C-变化不大,叶绿体膜损伤严重,叶绿体数、基粒数和片层数较少,淀粉粒数增加,淀粉粒较长,丙二醛(MDA)含量升高,而超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(APX)和谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)活性降低.可见,低温下镁运输受阻引起的缺镁是叶片失绿的主要原因;低温引起Pn降低的主要原因是非气孔限制,低镁胁迫会加大低温对黄瓜Pn的影响,而由此引起的Pn降低的主要原因是气孔限制.     

水氮运筹对膜下滴灌棉花光合特性及产量形成的影响

以不同基因型棉花品种为材料,在土柱栽培条件下研究膜下滴灌条件下水氮运筹方式对新疆棉花光合性能和产量构成的影响.结果表明:播前灌溉+盛花期前限量滴灌+盛花期后充分滴灌,并配合氮肥基施20％+追施80％的水氮运筹方式(W4N2)下,盛花期叶片叶绿素含量、气孔导度(gs)、净光合速率(Pn)、PSⅡ实际光化学效率(ΦPSⅡ)和光化学猝灭系数(qP)均显著低于全生育期常规滴灌处理,非光化学猝灭系数(NPQ)增加,地上部干物质累积量受到限制;盛铃期至吐絮期叶绿素含量、gs、Pn、ΦPSⅡ、qP均随水氮供应量的提高而增大,地上部干物质产生超补偿积累,且有利于光合产物向棉铃的运转与分配.在氮肥基施20％+追施80％的施氮方式下,新陆早13号以播前灌溉+全生育期常规滴灌(W3)处理的籽棉产量较高,新陆早43号以播前灌溉+盛花期前限量滴灌+盛花期后充分滴灌(W4)处理籽棉产量最高.因此,在播前灌溉条件下适当减少盛花期前、增加生育中后期水氮供应,可以延长冠层叶片光合功能期,促进光合物质优先向生殖器官分配,充分发挥膜下滴灌棉花的增产潜力.     

土壤干旱条件下玉米叶片内源激素含量及光合作用的变化

利用HPLC和ELISA技术研究了土壤干旱条件下玉米叶片内源IAA、ABA、ZR、DHZR、iPA含量的变化情况 ,以及叶片光合作用过程中 ,光合速率 (Pn) ,气孔导度 (Gs) ,PSⅡ光化学效率 (Fv/Fm)的变化情况 ,结果发现 :叶片中IAA浓度 ,在整个干旱过程中变化不大 ,与对照相比下降不明显 ;IAA的浓度对干旱的反应不敏感 ;叶片中ABA浓度在干旱最初 3d里急剧升高 ,直至最大值 ,之后有所下降 ;ABA的浓度对干旱反应敏感 ,但在整个干旱过程中ABA浓度并不随土壤相对含水量的减少而逐步升高 ;叶片中ZR和DHZR的浓度在干旱过程中与对照相比变化不明显 ,iPA浓度在干旱 4d后显著下降 ;叶片Pn在干旱初始 4d里随RWC的减小而缓慢下降 ,4d之后下降迅速 ;Gs从干旱第一天起即迅速减小 ,到第 4天近乎于零 ,Fv/Fm从干旱第 5天后开始逐步减小。这些结果证实在干旱过程中叶片ABA浓度的升高对气孔导度的调节作用 ,干旱初期光合速率的下降主要是气孔关闭所致 ;干旱后期光合速率的快速下降可能是PSⅡ光反应效率降低造成的     

氮素对花铃期干旱再复水后棉花根系生长的影响

于2005~2006年在江苏南京农业大学卫岗试验站进行盆栽试验, 设置正常灌水(土壤含水量为田间持水量的75%左右)和棉花(Gossypium hirsutum)花铃期土壤短期干旱处理(将正常灌水的棉花自然干旱持续8 d, 以棉株出现萎蔫症状为标准, 之后复水至正常灌水水平), 每个处理再设置3个氮素水平(0、3.73、7.46 g N·pot^-1, 分别相当于0、240、480 kg N·hm^-2), 研究氮素对花铃期干旱及复水后棉花根系生长的影响。结果表明, 花铃期干旱条件下, 土壤相对含水量迅速减少, 并随氮素水平的提高而降低。在干旱处理结束时, 与正常灌水处理相比, 干旱处理棉花根重与氮素累积量显著降低, 但干物质根冠比(R/S)与氮素累积量根冠比(R_N/S_N)增大; 根系超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和过氧化物酶(POD)活性明显升高, 而过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性降低, 同时, 丙二醛(MDA)含量相应增大。花铃期短期干旱亦显著降低棉花根系活力与叶片净光合速率。施氮可提高干旱处理棉花根重与氮素累积量, 降低SOD活性, 增强POD与CAT活性, 但以240 kg N·hm^-2水平最有利于根系生长, 其内在生理机制表现为R/S与R_N/S_N最小, 膜脂过氧化程度最低, 而根系活力最强, 其叶片的净光合速率亦最高。复水后, 干旱处理棉花根重与氮素累积量显著高于正常灌水处理; 内源保护酶活性相应变化, 其根系MDA含量与正常灌水处理已无显著差异; 根系活力显著高于正常灌水处理。施氮有助于增加复水后棉花根重与氮素累积量, 提高POD与CAT活性, 降低膜脂过氧化程度, 增强棉花根系活力, 从而提高叶片净光合速率。综合分析认为, 过量施氮或施氮不足均不利于棉花根系生长, 两年的试验结果表明, 在本试验设置的3个氮素水平中, 花铃期干旱胁迫下以240 kg N·hm^-2, 且基施50%, 初花期追施50%较适宜。     

开花期土壤短期干旱和复水对大豆光合作用和产量的影响

以大豆(Glycine max)为材料, 研究开花期土壤水分变动对叶片光合生理以及产量形成的影响, 以期为大豆的节水栽培和水分高效利用提供理论依据。研究发现, 大豆叶片气孔导度(Gs)对土壤水分的匮缺更加敏感。干旱胁迫降低了叶片的净光合速率(Pn), 但复水后, 叶片水势和净光合速率等在实验过程中都可以得到迅速恢复, 并且蒸腾速率(Tr)、气孔导度和胞间CO₂浓度(Ci)在复水后的第3 天与对照相比显著提高, 表现出一定的超补偿效应。研究发现, 在开花期即使短期的土壤干旱, 也会对大豆后期的生物量及其分配产生较大的影响, 开花期干旱和复水, 显著降低了大豆叶片和茎的生物量, 使根茎比提高16.7% (P<0.05), 收获指数增加26.3%(P<0.05)。     

土壤干旱胁迫对沙棘叶片光合作用和抗氧化酶活性的影响

在半干旱黄土丘陵区,采用盆栽控水试验,通过测定3年生沙棘苗木在8个土壤水分梯度下的光合速率、叶绿素荧光、抗氧化酶活性等光合生理生化指标,探讨沙棘叶片光合作用在土壤干旱逐渐加重过程中的变化过程、机制及其与土壤水分的定量关系.结果表明:(1)土壤相对含水量(RWC)在38.9％-70.5％范围内,随干旱胁迫加重,沙棘的净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)和胞间CO2浓度(Ci)明显下降,而气孔限制值(Ls)显著上升,即Pn下降主要是由气孔限制造成的;当RWC＜38.9％时,干旱胁迫继续加剧,Pn和Ls都降低,而Ci显著上升,即Pn下降的主要原因已经转变为非气孔因素的限制.(2)土壤适度水分胁迫能够提高沙棘叶片的水分利用效率(WUE),维持沙棘Pn和WUE处于较高水平的RWC范围为58.6％-82.9％和48.3％-70.5％.(3)土壤干旱加重过程中,沙棘的最大荧光(Fm)、PSⅡ最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ实际光化学效率ΦPSⅡ,光化学猝灭(qP)均表现出逐渐降低的趋势,而初始荧光(Fo)显著升高,非光化学猝灭(NPQ)则表现出先上升后下降的趋势;RWC在38.9％-70.5％的范围内,热耗散是沙棘重要光保护机制;RWC＜38.9％时,PSⅡ受到损伤,电子传递受阻.(4)土壤干旱加重过程中,沙棘叶片的超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性表现出先升高后降低的趋势,丙二醛(MDA)含量则表现出逐级递增趋势;土壤干旱程度在RWC为48.3％-70.5％时,对沙棘叶片的抗氧化酶系统活性有诱导作用;而土壤干旱到严重胁迫(RWC＜38.9％)时,沙棘叶片的抗氧化酶系统损伤,抗氧化酶活性下降,细胞膜遭到破坏.土壤干旱程度在RWC为48.3％-70.5％时,沙棘叶片可以通过热耗散和酶活性调节协同作用,稳定光合机构的正常功能,Pn下降的主要原因是气孔限制;而干旱到严重胁迫(RWC＜38.9％)时,PSⅡ系统和抗氧化酶系统损伤,是光合作用发生非气孔限制的主要原因.在半干旱黄土丘陵区,沙棘生长所允许的最大土壤水分亏缺在RWC为38.9％,维持沙棘具有较高WUE和Pn的土壤水分阈值为RWC在58.6％-70.5％之间.     

不同甘蔗品种叶片气孔对水分胁迫的响应

干旱是甘蔗面临最主要的环境胁迫之一,为了解不同甘蔗品种在干旱胁迫时的气孔响应,该研究以F172、GT21、YT93/159和 YL6四个抗旱性有显著差异的甘蔗品种为材料,采用桶栽,在伸长期进行四种不同程度的干旱胁迫(不浇水)处理：土壤持水量在①65％~70％为轻度干旱;②45％~50％为中度干旱;③25％~30％为重度干旱;④以土壤含水量为75％为对照(CK).检测不同品种不同处理甘蔗的叶片相对持水量变化,并利用扫描电镜技术观察甘蔗叶片下表皮气孔特性.结果表明：在干旱胁迫下,四个甘蔗品种叶片气孔导度急剧下降,重度干旱时耐旱性强的 F172和 GT21的气孔导度低于耐旱性弱的 YT93/159和 YL6的;复水后3 d,F172和 GT21的气孔导度上升至82．07和88．85 mmol·m-2·s-1,而 YT93/159和 YL6的仅有18．88和33．08 mmol·m-2·s-1.干旱还导致气孔下陷、闭合,气孔器的长、宽明显减小,且品种间气孔器长度变化差异显著;干旱胁迫下气孔密度增大,尤以耐旱性最强的 F172在重度干旱时达到显著差异.重度干旱时 F172与GT21的气孔闭合百分比是 YT93/159和 YL6近3~4倍.在水分胁迫下,叶片相对含水量降低,但 F172和GT21在重度干旱时仍可以保持相对较高的含水量,其它两个品种相对较低,尤以 YT93/159的最低.在复水后叶片含水量都有所恢复.这些研究结果表明不同甘蔗品种抗旱能力与叶片气孔特性和含水量密切相关.     

开花期土壤短期干旱和复水对大豆光合作用和产量的影响

以大豆(Glycine max)为材料,研究开花期土壤水分变动对叶片光合生理以及产量形成的影响,以期为大豆的节水栽培和水分高效利用提供理论依据。研究发现,大豆叶片气孔导度(Gs)对土壤水分的匮缺更加敏感。干旱胁迫降低了叶片的净光合速率(Pn),但复水后,叶片水势和净光合速率等在实验过程中都可以得到迅速恢复,并且蒸腾速率(Tr)、气孔导度和胞间CO2浓度(Ci)在复水后的第3天与对照相比显著提高,表现出一定的超补偿效应。研究发现,在开花期即使短期的土壤干旱,也会对大豆后期的生物量及其分配产生较大的影响,开花期干旱和复水,显著降低了大豆叶片和茎的生物量,使根茎比提高16.7%(P<0.05),收获指数增加26.3%(P<0.05)。     

干旱-复水对桂西北喀斯特地区青冈栎叶片光合能力、叶绿素荧光和显微结构的影响

为了探讨喀斯特地区适生种青冈栎幼苗对“干旱－复水”环境的适应机制,以当年生青冈栎实生苗为材料,通过盆栽控水试验,研究了4 种土壤干旱胁迫强度[对照（–0.1 MPa）、轻度干旱（–0.5 MPa））、中度干旱（–0.9 MPa）和重度干旱（–1.5 MPa）]及复水处理对叶片的水分状况、光合、叶绿素荧光和解剖结构参数的影响。结果表明：（1）随干旱胁迫加剧,叶片相对含水率、水势、净光合速率（Pn）、蒸腾速率（Tr）、气孔导度（Gs）和胞间CO2浓度（Ci）均显著降低,而气孔限制值（Ls）显著增加;轻度胁迫下各光合参数以及轻中度胁迫下瞬时水分利用效率（WUE）均不受显著影响。复水后,各干旱处理叶片水分参数、Pn、Tr、Gs、Ci、WUE均比复水前提高,Ls比复水前降低;轻度胁迫复水后叶片水分和光合参数均优于对照,中度胁迫仅Ls未恢复到对照,重度胁迫复水后叶片水分和光合参数均未恢复。（2）随干旱胁迫加剧,叶片初始荧光（Fo）显著增加,而最大荧光（Fm）、最大光化学量子产量（Fv/Fm）和潜在光化学效率（Fv/Fo）均显著下降,且在轻度胁迫下均与对照显著差异。复水后,各干旱胁迫Fm、Fv/Fm和Fv/Fo比复水前提高,而Fo均略低于复水前,轻度胁迫复水后各叶绿素荧光参数均恢复到或优于对照,中度和重度胁迫复水后Fo未恢复到对照,且重度胁迫复水后Fv /Fm仅为0.75。（3）随干旱胁迫加剧,叶片厚度、上下表皮厚度、气孔密度、主脉导管直径均显著增加,叶片气孔器长度、宽度、开口面积、海绵组织厚度均显著降低,而栅栏组织厚度、栅海比和主脉厚度均表现为中度＞轻度＞对照＞重度。复水后,仅各干旱胁迫处理的气孔开口面积和主脉厚度比复水前显著提高;轻度胁迫复水后叶片结构参数也均恢复到或优于对照,中度胁迫复水后气孔开口面积仍显著低于对照,重度胁迫复水后气孔开口未能恢复打开,主脉厚度也低于对照。因此,青冈栎幼苗有耐旱性和旱后恢复能力,适合作为喀斯特地区的生态恢复树种,但在青冈栎幼苗抚育阶段应免受中度以上干旱胁迫（–0.9 MPa）,以利于其旱后恢复生长。

Molecular characterisation of species and genotypes of Cryptosporidium and Giardia and assessment of zoonotic transmission

The molecular characterisation of species and genotypes of Cryptosporidium and Giardia is essential for accurately identifying organisms and assessing zoonotic transmission. Results of recent molecular epidemiological studies strongly suggest that zoonotic transmission plays an important role in cryptosporidiosis epidemiology. In such cases the most prevalent zoonotic species is Cryptosporidium parvum. Genotyping and subtyping data suggest that zoonotic transmission is not as prevalent in the epidemiology of giardiasis. Molecular characterisation of Cryptosporidium and Giardia is a relatively recent application that is evolving as new genes are found that increase the accuracy of identification while discovering a greater diversity of species and yet unnamed taxa within these two important genera. As molecular data accumulate, our understanding of the role of zoonotic transmission in epidemiology and clinical manifestations is becoming clearer.     

Comparison of BMI and percentage of body fat of Indian and German children and adolescents

Today, serious health problems as overweight and obesity are not just constricted to the developed world, but also increase in the developing countries (Prentice 2006, Ramachandram et al. 2002). Focusing on this issue, BMI and percentage of body fat were compared in 2094 schoolchildren from two cross-sectional studies from India and Germany investigated in 2008 and 2009. The German children are in all age groups significantly taller, whereas the Indian children show higher values in BMI (e.g. 12 years: Indian: around 22 kg/m2; German: around 19 kg/m2) and in the percentage of body fat (e.g. 12 years: Indian: around 27%; German: around 18-20%) in most of the investigated age groups. The Indian children have significantly higher BMI between 10 and 13 (boys) respectively 14 years (girls). Indian children showed significant higher percentage of body fat between 10 and 15 years (boys) and between 8 and 16 years (girls). The difference in overweight between Indian and German children was strongest at 11 (boys) and 12 (girls) years: 70% of the Indian but 20% of the German children were classified as overweight. In countries such as India that undergo nutritional transition, a rapid increase in obesity and overweight is observed. In contrast to the industrialized countries, the risk of overweight in developing countries is associated with high socioeconomic status. Other reasons of the rapid increase of overweight in the developing countries caused by different environmental or genetic factors are discussed.     

Synthesis and turnover of cerebrosides and phosphatidylserine of myelin and microsomal fractions of adult and developing rat brain.

The synthesis and turnover of cerebrosides and phospholipids was followed in microsomal and myelin fractions of developing and adult rat brains after an intracerebral injection of [U-14C]serine. The kinetics of incorporation of radioactivity into microsomal and myelin cerebrosides indicate the possibility of a precursor-product relationship between cerebrosides of these membranes. The specific radioactivity of myelin cerebrosides was corrected for the deposition of newly formed cerebrosides in myelin. Multiphasic curves were obtained for the decline in specific radioactivity of myelin and microsomal cerebrosides, suggesting different cerebroside pools in these membranes. The half-life of the fast turning-over pool of cerebrosides of myelin was 7 and 22 days for the developing and adult rat brain respectively. The half-life of the slowly turning-over pool of myelin cerebrosides was about 145 days for both groups of animals. The half-life of the rapidly turning-over microsomal cerebrosides was calculated to be 20 and 40 h for the developing and adult animals respectively. The half-life of the intermediate and slowly turning-over microsomal cerebrosides was 11 and 60 days respectively, for both groups of animals. The amount of incorporation of radioactivity into microsomal cerebrosides from L-serine was greatly decreased in the adult animals, and greater amounts of the precursor were directed towards the synthesis of phosphatidylserine. In the developing animals, considerable amounts of cerebrosides were synthesized from L-serine, besides phosphatidylserine. The time-course of incorporation indicated that a precursor-product relationship exists between microsomal and myelin phosphatidylserine. The half-life of microsomal phosphatidylserine was calculated to be about 8 h for the fast turning-over pool in both groups of animals.     

Identification and composition of the tonsillar and anal enterococcal and streptococcal flora of dogs and cats

Enterococcus faecalis was the most frequently isolated enterococcal species from anal swabs and tonsils of dogs and cats, although in the anal samples from dogs Ent. hirae was found almost as often as Ent. faecalis. Most Ent.faecium strains from dog tonsils differed from those associated with humans and other animals in that they fermented sorbitol. Typical Ent. avium as well as atypical Ent. avium -like strains were seen in dogs, while the related species Ent. raffinosus was associated with cat tonsils. Enterococcus cecorum also occurred mainly in cats. Certain atypical strains, presumptively identified as Ent. cecorum , shared characteristics with Ent. columbae.
The most frequent streptococcal species in tonsils of cats and dogs were Streptococcus suis and Strep. canis. Streptococcus canis and Strep. bovis predominated in anal swabs. The canine Strep. suis differed from the common porcine strains in fermenting mannitol.
Forty-seven of the 288 isolates examined could not be identified or related to known species. The characteristics of two groups of these bacteria, provisionally called 'Ton 31 group' and 'O7 group' are described.
