长沙望城县早稻田蜘蛛群落结构及动态研究

长沙望城县早稻田蜘蛛群落有9科20种,以微蛛科中的食虫沟瘤蛛所占比例最大,为第一优势种,其次是拟水狼蛛、锥腹肖蛸、八斑鞘蛛。八斑鞘蛛在早稻生长中后期发生量上升。综防田与化防田的优势种一致,施用化学农药对蜘蛛群落的丰富度、多样性有明显降低作用。稻田蜘蛛数量变动与白背飞虱及黑尾叶蝉的消长基本一致,稻田蜘蛛具有明显的控虫效应。综防田与化防田对照试验证明：现有化学农药用量减少是可行的。     

稻田生物灾害生态调控的综合效益研究

单季稻田生物灾害生态调控的综合效益研究结果表明：综防田的蜘蛛群落和土壤动物群落的生物多样性均高于化防田。两类稻田蜘蛛群落物种数和个体数的差异性均达显著水平,而两类稻田土壤动物群落类群数和个体数均达极显著水平以上。综防田的杂草群落生物多样性显著低于化防田。综防田蛛虱数量存在正相关,说明稻田蜘蛛具有重要的生态调控作用。综防田农药用量、农药费用和农药残留均低于化防田。综防田的土地生产率、产值利税率和农副产品商品率均高于化防田。以综防田为代表的稻田生物灾害生态调控具有良好的生态、经济和社会效益。

通过对南京地区４种不同类型单季稻田蜘蛛群落的结构及其与褐飞虱的相关性研究,结果表明,该地区蜘蛛群落由１０科２１种组成,其中草间小黑蛛、食虫瘤胸蛛、拟水狼蛛为优势种。物种丰富度、多样性化防田低于生防田,而均匀性则施药田大于不施药田。不同移栽时间的稻田,丰富度、多样性、均匀性迟栽田低于早栽田。蜘蛛与褐飞虱各发育阶段的相关性分析表明,蜘蛛与褐飞虱长翅成虫相关性好,而与低龄若虫相关性差;蜘蛛与褐飞虱的相关性主要由褐飞虱田间第１次若虫高峰时的蜘蛛量和蛛虱比决定,模拟的回归方程为：ｒ＝ － ０．１９９７＋ ０．００７５６ｘ１＋ ０．３３７１ｘ２（Ｆ＞ Ｆ０．０２３）。     

稻鸭共作系统中主要捕食性天敌的结构及多样性

为了探明稻鸭共作模式对稻田天敌群落的影响,设置稻鸭共作区、常规稻作区和空白区3个处理的田间小区试验,对早稻生长期间稻田主要捕食性天敌群落的结构及多样性特征进行了研究.结果表明:3个处理区主要捕食性天敌的优势种类均为园蛛科、微蛛科、狼蛛科和肖蛸科蜘蛛;稻鸭共作区中园蛛科、微蛛科和狼蛛科的优势度指数高于其他两个处理;在整个调查期间,常规稻作区、稻鸭共作区主要捕食性天敌的总数分别比空白区低1.7%和14.9%;除个别观测时段外,稻鸭共作区主要捕食性天敌的多样性指数均低于其他两个处理,但并不显著;多样性指数的减少以放鸭下田初期较为明显,随水稻的生长,多样性指数呈现持续上升的趋势.     

农田蜘蛛群落结构及其多样性研究

本文对南宁地区农田自然蜘蛛群落和旱地狼蛛亚群落结构及其多样性进行了研究。 1.农田区蜘蛛群落有14科、41属、80种。主要成分是食虫瘤胸蛛、拟环纹狼蛛、拟水狼蛛、奇异獾蛛和豹蛛属种类,个体数以食虫瘤胸蛛最多。旱地狼蛛亚群落主要成分是奇异獾蛛和豹蛛属种类。 2.稻田区蜘蛛群落多样性指数以田埂杂草群落最高,早稻田群落最低。多样性、均匀度和种类丰富度时间格局是早、晚稻皆随时间序列增加。平均多样性、均匀度和个体数,晚稻均高于早稻。狼蛛更群落多样性和均匀度以草地最高。 3.应用群落比例相似性和聚类分析表明,拟环纹狼蛛与拟水狼蛛和奇异獾蛛与豹蛛属种类是组成当地农田区的水田和旱地生境具有代表性的两个狼蛛亚群落主要成分。 本文试图揭示农田生态系统中的稻田蜘蛛,在不受化学农药干扰下群落结构及其多样性变化,并以狼蛛亚群落为代表,比较农田区内不同生境的群落结构及多样性与生境生态特征的关系,为害虫防治和动物资源的利用提供参考。     

稻鸭共作及其它控草措施对稻田杂草群落的影响

运用群落生态学方法研究了稻鸭共作、人工除草、化学除草3种控草措施对稻田杂草群落特征的影响及其对田间杂草的控制作用.结果表明,稻鸭共作显著降低了田间杂草的发生密度,对稻田主要杂草鸭舌草(Monochoriavaginalis)、异型莎草(Cyperusdifformis)、矮慈姑(Sagittariapygmaea)的防效均达到95%以上,总体控草效果显著优于化学除草和人工除草.稻鸭共作使稻田杂草群落的物种丰富度及Shannon-Wiener多样性指数略有降低,但Pielou均匀度指数显著提高,表明群落物种组成有了很大的改变,降低了原来优势杂草的发生危害.在不同控草措施作用下,稻田杂草群落的结构组成也发生了一定的变化,稻鸭共作区群落组成为陌上菜(Linderniaprocumbens)+异型莎草+水虱草(Fimbristylismiliacea),Whittaker群落指数显著高于化学除草、人工除草及对照区,表明稻鸭共作对田间杂草群落结构影响较大.从Sorensen群落相似性指数及以其为距离测度指标的聚类分析结果中也可得到同样的结论.

Evolution of the "autophagamiR"

MicroRNAs (miRs) are increasingly important diagnostic and prognostic markers in cancer but have not been defined in medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC). MiR microarray profiling was performed on 19 primary MTC tumors, validated with qPCR in 45 cases and correlated with clinical outcomes. MiRs-183 and 375 were overexpressed and miR-9* underexpressed in sporadic vs. hereditary MTC (SMTC; HMTC). MiR-183 and 375 overexpression predicted lateral nodal metastases, residual disease, distant metastases and mortality. MiR-183 knockdown in an MTC cell line (TT cells) reduced cellular proliferation in association with elevated LC3B expression. This is suggestive of increased autophagic flux and potential cell death via autophagy induction. MiRs may subsequently be shown to serve as efficacious therapeutic strategies in MTC with a mechanism based upon autophagy.     

"Fingering" the vertebrate limb

A detailed and precise picture is being pieced together about how the pattern of digits develops in vertebrate limbs. What is particularly exciting is that it will soon be possible to trace the process all the way from establishment of a signalling centre in a small bud of undifferentiated cells right through to final limb anatomy. The development of the vertebrate limb is a traditional model in which to explore mechanisms involved in pattern formation, and there is accelerating knowledge about the genes involved. One reason why the limb is holding its place in the post-genomic age is that it is rich in pre-genomic embryology. Here, we will focus on recent findings about the aspect of vertebrate limb development concerned with digit pattern across the anteroposterior axis of the limb. This process is controlled by a signalling region in the early limb bud known as the polarizing region. Interactions between polarizing region cells and other cells in the limb bud ensure that a thumb develops at one edge of the hand (anterior) and a little finger at the other (posterior).     

Nitration in neurodegeneration: deciphering the "Hows" "nYs"

Recent literature has ushered in a new awareness of the diverse post-translational events that can influence protein folding and function. Among these modifications, protein nitration is thought to play a critical role in the onset and progression of several neurodegenerative diseases. While previously considered a late-stage epiphenomenon, nitration of protein tyrosine residues appears to be an early event in the lesions of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, Parkinson's disease, and Alzheimer's disease. The advent of highly specific biochemical and immunological detection methods reveals that nitration occurs in vivo with biological selectively and site specificity. In fact, nitration of only a single Tyr residue is often sufficient to induce profound changes in the activity of catalytic proteins and the three-dimensional conformation of structural proteins. Presumably, nitration modifies protein function by altering the hydrophobicity, hydrogen bonding, and electrostatic properties within the targeted protein. Most importantly, however, nitrative injury may represent a unifying mechanism that explains how genetic and environmental causes of neurological disease manifest a singular phenotype. In this review and synthesis, we first examine the pathways of protein nitration in biological systems and the factors that influence site-directed nitration. Subsequently, we turn our attention to the structural implications of site-specific nitration and how it affects the function of several neurodegeneration-related proteins. These proteins include Mn superoxide dismutase and neurofilament light subunit in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis, alpha-synuclein and tyrosine hydroxylase in Parkinson's disease, and tau in Alzheimer's disease.
