长白山四种林分土壤CO2释放通量的研究

对长白山地区 4种典型林分下土壤释放CO2 通量的研究表明 ,在较短的时间尺度上 ,4种林型在CO2 释放通量上有显著的差别 ,各林型CO2 通量的释放表现出明显的空间异质性 ,其释放顺序为 :山杨白桦混交林 >原始阔叶红松林 >白桦林 >山杨林 ,其中山杨白桦混交林对CO2 释放的贡献最大 ,而山杨林最小。 4种林分土壤CO2 通量的全日变化过程并不一致 ,除山杨白桦混交林和气温有较一致性的规律 ,呈较明显的单峰型外 ,其余并无明显的变化规律。凋落物对林地CO2 释放通量的变化有显著的影响 ,有凋落物覆盖的林地土壤CO2 释放量明显大于无凋落物覆盖的林地 ,其平均通量为 2 6 2 86～ 5 5 6 5 5mgC·m-2 ·h-1,而无凋落物覆盖林地土壤CO2 的平均通量为 2 0 5 85～ 395 6 9mg·m-2 ·h-1。凋落物排放CO2 量占林地总排放量的14 %～ 30 % ,并且改变了林地CO2 释放通量大小的排序。     

长白山阔叶红松林土壤N2O排放通量的变化特征

采用静态密闭箱 /气相色谱分析方法对长白山阔叶红松林两个样地的N2 O排放通量进行了测定。结果表明 ,凋落物对林地土壤N2 O排放的影响是显著的 ,其对全年N2 O排放的平均贡献率是 36 89%。长白山阔叶红松林土壤是大气N2 O一个重要的源 ,但在极少的天气状况下也能吸收大气中的N2 O ,而起着汇的作用。其排放通量的变化范围是 - 4 1 4 8～ 2 91 84μgN2 O·m-2 ·h-1,平均通量是 6 8 7μgN2 O·m-2 ·h-1,高于其他类型林地的排放通量 ,且变动范围也较其他森林类型大。无凋落物林地土壤N2 O排放通量变化范围是 - 2 3 2 4～ 93 75 μgN2 O·m-2 ·h-1,平均通量为 33 79μgN2 O·m-2 ·h-1。两个样地N2 O排放通量的季节变化特征相似 :夏季N2 O的排放通量最高 ,春季次之 ,秋冬两季较低且趋于平稳。昼夜变化趋势也相似 :N2 O排放通量的最大值都出现在 18∶0 0 ,最小值都出现在 12∶0 0和 14∶0 0。研究还表明 ,林地土壤N2 O的排放通量与地表温度和地下 5cm温度的相关性较好 ,无凋落物的样地N2 O的排放通量仅与地下 5cm温度的相关性较好。     

小兴安岭地区枫桦次生林与原始阔叶红松林土壤呼吸和地下碳分配

森林土壤呼吸速率和地下碳分配是森林碳平衡的两个重要分量。本研究选择枫桦次生林和原始阔叶红松林为研究对象,测定其土壤呼吸速率和地下碳分配以及相关的环境因子。研究结果表明,生长季内枫桦次生林的土壤呼吸速率的平均值略高于原始阔叶红松林,分别为5.52和5.43μmol·m-2·s-1。土壤温度是造成土壤呼吸速率季节性变化的主要影响因子,可以分别解释两种林型土壤呼吸速率的77%和81%变异。枫桦次生林和原始阔叶红松林的Q10值分别为2.74和2.23。枫桦次生林的土壤呼吸年通量为9.66 t C·hm-2·a-1,略高于原始阔叶红松林的9.37 t C·hm-2·a-1。枫桦次生林和原始阔叶红松林的地下碳分配量分别为7.73和7.56 t·hm-2·a-1。

2007年1月至12月,在长沙天际岭国家森林公园,使用LI-COR-6400-09连接到LI-6400便携式CO2/H2O分析系统,测定亚热带枫香(Liquidambar formosana)和樟树(Cinnamomum camphora)林去除和添加凋落物(931.5 g · m-2a-1和1003.4 g · m-2a-1)的土壤呼吸速率以及5 cm土壤温、湿度,研究凋落物对2种森林生态系统中土壤呼吸速率的影响.结果表明:枫香和樟树林去除和添加凋落物的土壤呼吸速率季节变化显著,在季节动态上的趋势与5 cm土壤温度相似,均呈单峰曲线格局,全年去除凋落物土壤呼吸速率平均值分别为1.132 μmol CO2 · m-2s-1和1.933 μmol CO2 · m-2s-1,分别比对照处理1.397 μmol CO2 · m-2s-1和2.581 μmol CO2 · m-2s-1低18.62%和26.49%;添加凋落物土壤呼吸速率平均值分别为2.363 μmol CO2 · m-2s-1和3.267 μmol CO2 · m-2s-1,分别比对照处理高71.31%和39.18%.两种群落去除和添加凋落物土壤呼吸的季节变化均与5 cm土壤温度呈显著指数相关(P﹤0.001),与5 cm土壤湿度相关性不显著(P>0.05);土壤温度和湿度可以共同解释去除和添加凋落物后土壤呼吸变化的95.2%、93.7%和90.0%、92.8%.枫香和樟树群落去除和添加凋落物土壤呼吸温度敏感性Q10值分别为3.01、3.29和3.02、4.37,均比对照处理Q10值2.98和2.94高.这证明凋落物是影响森林CO2通量的一个重要因子.     

小兴安岭4种原始红松林群落类型生长季土壤呼吸特征

为阐明小兴安岭地带性植被原始红松林土壤呼吸各组分的碳排放速率及其对土壤水热变化的响应规律,采用挖壕法和红外气体分析法测定土壤表面CO2通量(Rs),确定4种原始红松林群落类型生长季的土壤总呼吸(Rt)中土壤微生物呼吸(Rh),根系呼吸(Rr)和凋落物呼吸(Rl)的贡献量动态变化及其影响因子。结果表明:生长季内,4种原始红松林群落类型的Rt、Rh、Rr具有明显的季节性变化,7-9月份较高,6月份和10月份较低。Rh对Rt的贡献量最高,平均在58.8%;Rr对Rt的贡献量次之,平均为26.5%;Rl对Rt的贡献量相对较小,平均为12.5%。生长季土壤呼吸速率与5cm深土壤温度相关性极显著(P0.01)。Rr和Rh的Q10值分别为2.88和2.23。表明根呼吸对土壤温度的敏感性高于微生物呼吸。生长季平均土壤呼吸速率的依次为:椴树红松林(6.38μmol·m-·2s-1)云冷杉红松林(6.32μmol·m-·2s-1)枫桦红松林(5.95μmol·m-·2s-1)蒙古栎红松林(2.86μmol·m-·2s-1)。4种原始叶红松林群落类型间的Rh和Rr也存在一定差异。

A Unique Protease Cleavage Site Predicted in the Spike Protein of the Novel Pneumonia Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Potentially Related to Viral Transmissibility

So far, this virus has spread to all areas of China and even to other countries. The epidemic has caused 67,102 confirmed infections with 1526 fatal cases     

Curcuminoids as inhibitors of thioredoxin reductase: A receptor based pharmacophore study with distance mapping of the active site

Curcumin is the yellow pigment of turmeric that interacts irreversibly forming an adduct with thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), an enzyme responsible for redox control of cell and defence against oxidative stress. Docking at both the active sites of TrxR was performed to compare the potency of three naturally occurring curcuminoids, namely curcumin, demethoxy curcumin and bis-demethoxy curcumin. Results show that active sites of TrxR occur at the junction of E and F chains. Volume and area of both cavities is predicted. It has been concluded by distance mapping of the most active conformations that Se atom of catalytic residue SeCYS498, is at a distance of 3.56 from C13 of demethoxy curcumin at the E chain active site, whereas C13 carbon atom forms adduct with Se atom of SeCys 498. We report that at least one methoxy group in curcuminoids is necessary for interation with catalytic residues of thioredoxin. Pharmacophore of both active sites of the TrxR receptor for curcumin and demethoxy curcumin molecules has been drawn and proposed for design and synthesis of most probable potent antiproliferative synthetic drugs.     

Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Hewardieae, Petrosavieae, and Tricyrteae

The young pistils in the melanthioid tribes, Hewardieae, Petrosavieae and Tricyrteae, are uniformly tricarpellate and syncarpous. They lack raphide idioblasts. All are multiovulate, with bitegmic ovules. The Petrosavieae are marked by the presence of septal glands and incomplete syncarpy. Tepals and stamens adhere to the ovary in the Hewardieae and the Petrosavieae but not in the Tricyrteae. Two vascular bundles occur in the stamens of the Hewartlieae and Tricyrtis latifolia. Ventral bundles in the upper part of the ovary of the Hewardieae are continuous with compound septal bundles and placental bundles in the lower part. Putative ventral bundles occur in the alternate position in the Tricyrteae and putative placental bundles in the opposite. position in the Petrosavieae. The dichtomously branched stigma in each carpel of the Tricyrteae is supplied by a bifurcated dorsal bundle.

Detection of EBV and HHV6 in the Brain Tissue of Patients with Rasmussen’s Encephalitis

Rasmussen’s encephalitis (RE) is a rare pediatric neurological disorder, and the exact etiology is not clear. Viral infection may be involved in the pathogenesis of RE, but conflicting results have reported. In this study, we evaluated the expression of both Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) and human herpes virus (HHV) 6 antigens in brain sections from 30 patients with RE and 16 control individuals by immunohistochemistry. In the RE group, EBV and HHV6 antigens were detected in 56.7% (17/30) and 50% (15/30) of individuals, respectively. In contrast, no detectable EBV and HHV6 antigen expression was found in brain tissues of the control group. The co-expression of EBV and HHV6 was detected in 20.0% (6/30) of individuals. In particular, a 4-year-old boy had a typical clinical course, including a medical history of viral encephalitis, intractable epilepsy, and hemispheric atrophy. The co-expression of EBV and HHV6 was detected in neurons and astrocytes in the brain tissue, accompanied by a high frequency of CD8⁺ T cells. Our results suggest that EBV and HHV6 infection and the activation of CD8⁺ T cells are involved in the pathogenesis of RE.     

Perinatal Vertical Transmission of Chikungunya Virus in Ruili,a Town on the Border between China and Myanmar

正Dear Editor,Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), an arbovirus in the family of Togaviridae, genus Alphavirus, is transmitted by the A.aegyptii or A. albopictus mosquito, and causes disease in humans characterized by fever, rash, and arthralgia (Silva and Dermody 2017; Suhrbier 2019). It was first reported in 1953 in Tanzania, and caused only a few outbreaks and sporadic cases in Africa and Asia in last century. However, in the epidemic in 2004, CHIKV acquired mutations that conferred enhanced transmission by the A. albopictus mosquito(Schuffenecker et al. 2006). Since then, it has successively caused outbreaks in Africa, the Indian Ocean, South East Asia, the South America, and Europe (Zeller et al. 2016).     

Development of a Novel Reverse Transcription Loop-Mediated Isothermal Amplification Method for Rapid Detection of SARS-CoV-2

In conclusion, the novel visual RT-LAMP assay is a simple, rapid, and sensitive approach for detection of SARS-CoV-2, and it is ready for application in primary care and community hospitals or health care centers, and even patients' own houses in response to the current SARS-CoV-2 epidemic because the assay does not require sophisticated equipment and skilled personnel. Furthermore, it is also ready to be used in fields for screening samples from wild animals and environments to facilitate the identification of potential intermediate hosts that mediate the cross-species transmission of SARS-CoV-2 from bats to humans.
