红腹锦鸡和丽纹龙蜥视网膜的组织学观察

为了进一步探讨动物视网膜结构与机能的关系,利用光镜和扫描电镜比较观察了红腹锦鸡(Chrysolophus pictus)、丽纹龙蜥(Jspalura splendida)视网膜的结构。结果表明,红腹锦鸡、丽纹龙蜥的视网膜均由四层细胞构成,在光镜下均可分为十层结构。红腹锦鸡视网膜平均厚225·2μm,视细胞与节细胞数比约为2:1;丽纹龙蜥视网膜平均厚156.2μm,视细胞与节细胞数比为1:1。红腹锦鸡、丽纹龙蜥视网膜视细胞的平均密度分别为(124828±24404)个/mm2和(33165±7034)个/mm2。显示了红腹锦鸡和丽纹龙蜥均具有昼行性动物视网膜的结构特征。

四川大邑县发现的白腹锦鸡和红腹锦鸡自然杂种的记述

1992年1—4月,在四川大邑县双河乡山区海拔1600—1700m处,先后获得5只雉科雄鸟标本。(第1号标本存四川大学生物系,其余4号标本存大邑县林业局)。经鉴定,确认属白腹锦鸡(Chrysolophus amherstiae)和红腹锦鸡(C.pictus)的杂种。其形态如下: No.1:外形和羽色大体似红腹锦鸡雄鸟。尾长750mm,比一般金鸡稍长。上嘴基部铅褐,跗蹠淡褐,与白腹锦鸡相似。额、头顶和枕冠淡黄,枕冠羽端沾红。枕冠长70mm,介于红腹锦鸡(1,100mm)和白腹锦鸡(1,52mm)之间。披肩羽端呈截状,似红腹锦鸡;各羽乳白,羽端和近端的黑色横斑有绿色反光,与白腹锦鸡相似,较长的披肩羽片基部渲染葡萄红色。下颈和肩间部亮绿,并有铜黄色反光,羽端较宽而略呈弧形与     

红腹锦鸡肺的组织结构与微血管构筑

为了了解红腹锦鸡(Chroysolophus pictus)肺的微细结构和微血管构筑特征,为呼吸生物学研究提供形态学依据,用组织学方法和微血管铸型技术在光镜和扫描电镜下观察研究了红腹锦鸡肺的组织结构与微血管构筑情况。结果表明,红腹锦鸡肺主要由各级支气管构成,从三级支气管上呈辅射状分出许多呼吸毛细管(微气管),并相互吻合成网状,呼吸毛细管外面包围有丰富的毛细血管;红腹锦鸡肺毛细血管垂直围绕在各微气管外,并相互吻合成密集的立体微血管网;毛细血管管径4.5~7.0μm,微气管直径11~50μm。并对肺微血管构筑情况与呼吸效率的关系作了探讨。     

利用无线电遥测位点分析红腹锦鸡的生境利用

为了解红腹锦鸡(Chrysolophus pictus)的生境利用及其季节变化以及对距森林边缘不同距离的生境的利用情况，我们于1996年1月-8月、1998年11月-1999年9月分别在陕西佛坪和贵州宽阔水自然保护区，采用无线电遥测位点与随机点相比较的方法，从不同时空尺度定量分析了红腹锦鸡的生境利用。两研究区共遥测24只红腹锦鸡个体(亚成体和成体，6♂，15♀，3亚♂)，其遥测位点分布与随机点比较，冬、春和夏季3季节中均有极显著差异，落入各区域的活动位点与其期望位点数之间也存在着极显著差异。这说明红腹锦鸡对生境的利用不是随机的，而是有选择地利用。红腹锦鸡对距森林边缘不同距离的生境的利用有选择性，并存在着明显的季节变化。分析结果表明，红腹锦鸡在冬、春季对森林边缘和林缘开阔区的利用较多，有一定偏好。红腹锦鸡在两研究区的生境利用模式相似，但在对森林边缘和林缘开阔区的利用强度上，宽阔水研究区显著大于佛坪研究区[动物学报49(2)：179一184，2003]。

红腹锦鸡和红腹角雉活动节律——基于红外相机监测数据

红腹锦鸡(Chrysolophus pictus)和红腹角雉(Tragopan temmminckii)均为国家Ⅱ级重点保护鸟类。作为两种同域分布的物种,其生态位重叠程度及竞争机制尚不明确。为了探究上述问题我们从2012年7月至2014年11月,在陕西省佛坪国家级自然保护区的9条样线上布设52台红外相机对这两种雉类的集群现象、日活动节律、季节性活动规律和最适活动温区进行研究。研究结果表明:(1)红腹锦鸡和红腹角雉每年8月下旬开始集群,到第二年的3、4月份集群结束,冬季集群最为频繁,而夏季则分散在其各自活动区单独活动。(2)二者皆为昼行性鸟类,活动高峰均出现在清晨和傍晚,但时间生态位存在明显分化:红腹锦鸡有两个活动高峰,分别为7:00时和17:00时;红腹角雉活动高峰为6:00时、9:00时和18:00时。(3)对两种雉类活动频次的季节性差异分析发现,春季活动最频繁,其后依次是秋季、夏季和冬季。(4)红腹锦鸡和红腹角雉选择在接近当月平均气温的时间段出来活动,红腹锦鸡活动的温度范围在﹣4℃到19℃,红腹角雉的活动温度范围是﹣1℃到22℃;但不同季节间略有差异,两种雉类在秋冬季大多选择在高于当月平均气温的时间段出来活动,而在夏季的活动温度则要略低于当月平均气温。观测数据证实了两种雉雉类有通过错峰活动减少生态位重叠导致的竞争的现象,但并未见到二者间有明显的适应性温区分化。

红腹锦鸡研究现状

红腹锦鸡（Chrysolophus pictus）是国家二级保护动物。对红腹锦鸡的求偶行为、繁殖情况、种群密度、越冬生态、栖息地植被类型、生境利用及其季节变化等生态学研究较多;在解剖学方面,对红腹锦鸡胃血管、消化道和肝脏显微结构、肺微血管构筑、肾小球微血管构筑进行了研究;对人工养殖的红腹锦鸡的卵、肌肉及羽毛的营养组成进行了测定,发现红腹锦鸡卵的必需氨基酸（essential amino acid,EAA）组成模型与NRC（Narional Research Council of USA）蛋鸡理想氨基酸模型最接近;红腹锦鸡的人工养殖及疾病防治也做过一些研究。     

Entwicklungsgeschichte und Ultrastruktur von Pollenkitt und Exine bei nahe verwandten entomophilen und anemophilen Angiospermensippen derAlismataceae,Liliaceae, Juncaceae,Cyperaceae, Poaceae undAraceae

Some closely related members of the monocotyledonous familiesAlismataceae, Liliaceae, Juncaceae, Cyperaceae, Poaceae andAraceae with variable modes of pollination (insect- and wind-pollination) were studied in relation to the ultrastructure of pollenkitt and exine (amount, consistency and distribution of pollenkitt on the surface of pollen grains). The character syndromes of pollen cementing in entomophilous, anemophilous and intermediate (ambophilous or amphiphilous) monocotyledons are the same in principal as in dicotyledons. Comparing present with former results one can summarize: 1) The pollenkitt is always produced in the same manner by the anther tapetum in all angiosperm sub-classes. 2) The variable stickiness of entomophilous and anemophilous pollen always depends on the particular distribution and consistency of the pollenkitt, but not its amount on the pollen surface. 3) The mostly dry and powdery pollen of anemophilous plants always contains a variable amount of inactive pollenkitt in its exine cavities. 4) A step-by step change of the pollen cementing syndrome can be observed from entomophily towards anemophily. 5) From the omnipresence of pollenkitt in all wind-pollinated angiosperms studied one can conclude that the ancestors of anemophilous angiosperms probably have been zoophilous (i.e. entomophilous) throughout.

Pathogenic Characterization and Full Length Genome Sequence of a Reassortant Infectious Bursal Disease Virus Newly Isolated in Pakistan

<正>Dear Editor,Infectious bursal disease (IBD) is one of the most important diseases of the poultry. The IBD virus (IBDV), a nonenveloped virus belonging to the Birnaviridae family with a genome consisting of two segments of double-stranded RNA (segments A and B), targets B lymphocytes of bursa of Fabricious leading to immunosuppression. In Pakistan,poultry farming is the second biggest industry and IBD is the second biggest disease threating the poultry sector.However, there is limited genome information of IBDV     

Mink Circovirus Can Infect Minks,Foxes and Raccoon Dogs

正Dear Editor,Mink circovirus (MiCV), which is clustered in the genus Circovirus of the family Circoviridae, was first described in minks from farms in Dalian, China in 2013 (Lian et al.2014). The complete single-stranded circular genome of the virus is 1,753 nucleotides long and contains two major open reading frames (ORFs), designated ORF1 (Rep gene)and ORF2 (Cap gene)(Lian et al. 2014; Ge et al. 2018).Sequence analysis has shown that MiCV is most closely     

CypA Regulates AIP4-Mediated M1 Ubiquitination of Influenza A Virus

Cyclophilin A (CypA) is a peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerase that interacts with the matrix protein (M1) of influenza A virus (IAV) and restricts virus replication by regulating the ubiquitin–proteasome-mediated degradation of M1. However,the mechanism by which CypA regulates M1 ubiquitination remains unknown. In this study, we reported that E3 ubiquitin ligase AIP4 promoted K48-linked ubiquitination of M1 at K102 and K104, and accelerated ubiquitin–proteasome-mediated degradation of M1. The recombinant IAV with mutant M1 (K102 R/K104 R) could not be rescued, suggesting that the ubiquitination of M1 at K102/K104 was essential for IAV replication. Furthermore, CypA inhibited AIP4-mediated M1 ubiquitination by impairing the interaction between AIP4 and M1. More importantly, both the mutations of M1 (K102 R/K104 R) and CypA inhibited the nuclear export of M1, indicating that CypA regulates the cellular localization of M1 via inhibition of AIP4-mediated M1 ubiquitination at K102 and K104, which results in the reduced replication of IAV.Collectively, our findings reveal a novel ubiquitination-based mechanism by which CypA regulates the replication of IAV.
