南疆机采棉田灌溉制度对土壤水盐变化和棉花产量的影响

土壤盐渍化在南疆干旱区的持续加重威胁到棉花生产,如何通过制定精准的膜下滴灌灌溉策略控制盐分累积是目前研究的一个关键科学问题.本研究从改善土壤状况、保证棉花产量出发,在南疆主要棉花产区设置生育期不同灌水定额试验,研究灌溉定额对土壤水盐运移和棉花产量、品质的影响.结果表明: 灌溉定额的增加有助于棉花光合产物的积累,但对生殖器官分配比例无显著影响;土壤脱盐程度与灌溉定额呈正相关关系,当棉花生育期灌溉定额高于2577.83 m³·hm^-2时,土壤盐渍化程度不会加深;灌溉定额显著影响灌溉水利用效率(WUE_I),但纤维品质没有显著差异,且棉花产量随灌溉定额增加呈现先增加后减少的趋势.研究认为生育期灌溉定额4200 m³·hm^-2(蕾期灌水间隔7 d,花铃期灌水间隔5 d)是南疆干旱区较为适宜的灌溉制度.     

变饱和带条件下污水灌溉对土壤氮素运移和冬小麦生长的影响

为了研究地下水浅埋区污水灌溉对土壤环境及作物生长的影响,设置地下水埋深(2、3m和4m)和灌水水量(900m3·hm-2和1200m3·hm-2)2个因素,对冬小麦全生育期土壤氮素和冬小麦生长发育指标进行试验,试验在地中渗透仪中进行.结果显示:灌水后,不同处理土壤中硝态氮含量均显著增加,灌水水平越高,土壤中硝态氮含量增加越多;灌水后,灌水水平B1(900 m3·hm-2)不同潜水埋深地下水硝态氮分别增加34.67%、24.94%、20.88%;灌水水平B2(1200 m3·hm-2)不同潜水埋深地下水硝态氮分别增加58.42%、38.98%、27.21%.潜水埋深越浅,地下水中硝态氮的浓度增加越大,这也就表明由于淋溶和硝化作用产生的硝态氮造成浅层地下水污染的风险越大.污水灌溉对冬小麦的生长发育指标和产量有促进作用;相同灌水水平(B1 和B2),地下水埋深影响冬小麦生长发育指标的大小顺序为:2m＞3m＞4m.     

天津盐渍化农田土壤盐分变化特征

通过对天津农田土壤合盐量及盐分组成的分析,研究了该区盐渍化农田盐分的组成状况和累积特征.结果表明:与蓟县背景对照土壤相比,东丽、津南和汉沽三区盐渍化农田的盐分组成均呈现很大的差异性;非盐渍化农田盐分呈表层累积特征,含盐量随土壤剖面深度的增加而减小,而盐渍化农田表层呈强烈的洗盐、脱盐现象,底层则呈明显的积盐现象;非盐渍化和盐渍化农田盐分的阴离子组成均以HCO3-为主,而阳离子组成则由无盐渍化农田的以Ca2+为主逐渐过渡到盐渍化农田的以Na+为主;盐渍化农田剖面盐分的空间变异性较强,Na+、C1-与SO42-均为表层低深层高,且pH、残余碳酸钠(RSC)、钠吸附比(SAR)及碱化度(ESP)也均比非盐渍化农田高,并呈现出盐化和碱化同步发生的特征.     

关中地区小麦/玉米轮作农田硝态氮淋溶特点

通过田间原位淋溶装置研究了不同施氮量和秸秆覆盖对关中地区小麦/玉米轮作农田90cm深处硝态氮(NO3--N)淋溶量、0～1m土层硝态氮累积及作物产量和氮平衡的影响.试验设不施氮(N1,0kg·hm-2·a-1)、常规施氮(N2,471kg·hm-2·a-1)、推荐施氮(N3,330kg·hm-2·a-1)、减量施氮(N4,165kg·hm-2·a-1)、增量施氮(N5,495kg·hm-2·a-1)和推荐施氮+秸秆覆盖(N3+S)6个不同施肥处理.结果表明:NO3--N淋溶量随施氮量的增加而增大,氮肥的过量施用及秸秆覆盖易造成NO3--N淋溶.N3+S处理90cm处年NO3--N流失量最大,为22.32kg·hm-2,施肥造成的氮流失量为16.44kg·hm-2,比相同施氮量不覆盖处理(N3)高158.9%.NO3--N主要累积在20～60cm土层,年施氮量330kg·hm-2(N3)时,秸秆覆盖与否不影响NO3--N的剖面分布.各施肥处理对作物产量没有显著影响,但减量施氮处理(N4)有减少作物产量的趋势.在本试验条件下,推荐施肥量(小麦施氮150kg·hm-2,玉米施氮180kg·hm-2)在保证作物产量的同时,可减少土壤NO3--N的淋溶和累积.     

不同淋洗水量下胶州湾养殖池塘土壤盐分淋洗规律

针对养殖池塘严重盐渍化现象,为确保土地资源和水资源的有效利用,通过室内土柱试验探讨不同淋洗水量下胶州湾养殖池塘土壤盐分淋洗规律,并确定最佳用水量。结果表明:随着淋洗水量的增加,土壤及其淋滤液的含盐量均以指数形式下降,为兼顾淋洗效果和节约用水,接近1:1的水土比可以达到较好的改良效果;在脱盐过程中,土壤中Ca~(2+)、Mg~(2+)、K~+、Na~+、Cl~-含量均呈下降趋势,SO_4~(2-)含量呈先上升后下降的趋势,CO_3~(2-)、HCO_3~-含量呈上升趋势;淋滤液中各盐离子浓度与土壤各盐离子变化规律类似;土壤各盐离子脱盐率大小大致表现为Cl~-Na~+K~+Ca~(2+)Mg~(2+)SO_4~(2-)HCO_3~-;随着淋洗水量的增加,土壤中离子组成由原来的Cl~-和Na~+为主先转变为以Na~+、K~+和SO_4~(2-)为主,最后转变为Na~+、HCO_3~-和K~+为主。土壤脱盐过程伴随着土壤碱化现象,因此需要对盐渍土脱盐过程中的碱化现象进行进一步研究。     

淋洗与植物作用耦合对盐渍化土壤的改良效应

以甘肃秦王川引大灌区盐渍化土壤为背景,以当地5种耐盐植物为材料,采用根袋法盆栽试验动态研究了淋洗结合植物种植对盐渍化土壤改良的效应。结果表明:与种前相比,单纯的淋洗作用对土壤pH值影响不大,而淋洗结合植物种植明显降低了土壤pH值,且根际土壤pH值小于非根际土壤的,5种耐盐植物中霸王根际土壤pH值降低幅度最大,达0.6个单位。K+、Ca2+、Na+、Mg2+、Cl-和SO2-4在5种植物根际土壤中均有不同程度的富集,富集程度因物种的不同而不同,随培养时间的延长而呈波动状态。5种供试植物和对照组土壤中的6种主要的可溶性盐分离子随淋洗次数和培养时间的延长呈下降趋势。在培养120d后,单纯淋洗的土壤中K+、Ca2+、Na+、Mg2+、Cl-和SO2-4的含量相比种前平均分别降低了33.3%、26.1%、35.6%、32.5%、35.5%和36.3%,植物吸收带走的上述各离子的含量平均分别占种前的46.2%、8.1%、30.2%、7.2%和21.6%,其中霸王吸收带走的盐分离子最多,而淋洗结合种植植物的土壤中上述各离子的含量与种前相比平均分别降低了67.25%、63.73%、83.8%、67.5%、81.55%和78.46%,由此可见,淋洗结合植物种植的脱盐效果优于单纯淋洗,且土壤中主要的盐分离子Na+、Cl-和SO2-4的含量降低幅度最大,通过计算得出,在Cl-、SO2-4和Na+减少的总量中还有37.73%的Na+、38.22%的Cl-和35.14%的SO2-4的减少量是由植物根系的物理化学作用机制引起的。     

不同施氮量下灌水量对小麦耗水特性和氮素分配的影响

研究了不同施氮量条件下灌水量对高产小麦耗水特性和氮素分配利用的影响。设置4个施氮水平:0kg·hm-2(N0)、120kg·hm-2(N1)、210kg·hm-2(N2)和300kg·hm-2(N3),在每个施氮水平下设置4个灌水量处理:不浇水(W0)、底墒水+拔节水(W1)、底墒水+拔节水+开花水(W2)、底墒水+拔节水+开花水+灌浆水(W3),每次灌水量60mm。结果表明:(1)在N0水平下W0处理日耗水量以拔节至开花期最高,在N1水平下,拔节至开花期日耗水量与开花至成熟期的无显著差异。同一施氮水平下,小麦开花后总耗水量、耗水模系数和日耗水量随灌水量的增加而提高,但产量随灌水量的增加先升高后降低。(2)同一施氮水平下,成熟期W1处理20—140cm各土层土壤含水量低于W2和W3处理,140—200cm土层土壤含水量与W2处理无显著差异;W1处理0—40cm土层土壤硝态氮含量及植株氮素在籽粒中的分配比例高于W2和W3处理,100—140cm土层土壤硝态氮含量及植株氮素在营养器官中的分配量和分配比例低于W2和W3处理。表明灌溉底墒水和拔节水的W1处理,促进了小麦对20—140cm土层土壤水的吸收利用,减少了土壤硝态氮向100cm以下土层的淋溶,而且有利于营养器官中氮素向籽粒的再分配,水分和氮素利用效率较高。(3)在试验条件下,施纯氮210kg·hm-2、灌溉底墒水和拔节水的N2W1处理,籽粒产量最高,水分利用效率和氮素利用效率较高,可供生产中参考。     

模拟氮沉降下南方针叶林红壤的养分淋溶和酸化

以中国科学院红壤生态实验站林草生态试验区针叶林红壤为研究对象,在恒温(20 ℃)条件下,通过大土柱（直径10 cm、高60 cm）,8个月间隙性淋溶试验模拟研究了不同氮输入量（0、7.8、26和52 mg N/月/柱）对针叶林红壤NO₃^-、NH₄⁺、H⁺和土壤盐基离子(Ca²⁺、Mg²⁺、K⁺、Na⁺⁾淋溶以及土壤酸化的影响.结果表明,土壤交换态盐基总量、Ca²⁺和Mg²⁺淋溶量随氮输入量的增加而增加,土壤交换态Na⁺和K⁺则无明显影响.4种N输入处理的土壤交换态盐基总量净淋溶（淋溶出的盐基与淋洗液累计输入的盐基之差）分别占土壤交换性盐基总量的13.9%、18.6%、31.8% 和57.9％,土壤交换态Ca²⁺净淋溶分别占土壤交换性Ca²⁺总量的19.6%、25.8%、45.3%和84.8%,土壤交换态Mg²⁺净淋溶分别占土壤交换性Mg²⁺总量的4.4%、6.1%、10.9%和17.1%.随氮输入量增加,表层土壤pH值逐渐下降,4种N输入处理的表层土壤pH（KCl）分别为3.85、3.84、3.80和3.75;随氮输入量增加,淋溶液中无机氮、NO₃^-和H⁺逐渐增加.氮沉降可促进针叶林红壤的有机氮矿化,加速养分淋失和土壤酸化.     

不同施肥条件下玉米田土壤养分淋溶规律的原位研究

利用排水采集器法结合田间原位试验,研究了夏玉米不同施肥处理对棕壤土养分淋失的影响.结果表明:在夏玉米生长期内,影响玉米田土壤水分淋溶的主要因素是大量降雨和灌溉,夏玉米生长前期的土壤淋溶水量较大,但随夏玉米生育进程的推进而递减,各处理差异也逐渐减小;与施氮肥处理相比,秸秆还田配施氮肥处理可加剧土壤水淋溶.在夏玉米生长期内,施肥处理的土壤淋溶水硝态氮浓度均呈"双峰"曲线变化趋势,而铵态氮浓度则呈先升后降的变化趋势.玉米田土壤氮素淋失以硝态氮形式为主,其累计淋失量为12.90～46.53 kg·hm-2,铵态氮的累计淋仅为1.66～5.11 kg·hm-2,两种形态氮的淋失量都随施氮量的增加而升高.秸秆还田配施氮肥处理的氮素淋失率比单施氮肥处理高6.53%～13.07%,低氮处理的氮素淋失率比高氮处理高3.66%～10.10%;玉米田土壤速效磷的累计淋失量较小,仅为0.148～0.235 kg·hm-2,而速效钾的累计淋失量较大,为7.08～13.00 kg·hm-2.在夏玉米生长后期,秸秆还田配施氮肥处理使土壤速效磷淋失量升高,并可加剧土壤速效钾的淋失,而单施氮肥处理作用不明显.     

秸秆还田和施氮对农田土壤呼吸的影响

2003年10月至2004年9月期间在华北平原冬小麦-玉米轮作的高产粮区开展了土壤温度、秸秆还田和施氮对农田土壤呼吸影响的研究。土壤类型是砂姜黑土。试验共设6个处理,分别是N 1、N 1 W、N 2 W、N 3 W N 1 W O和N 2 W M,其中N 1、N 2和N 3表示3个施氮水平(纯N计,下同),分别是200 kg hm-2、400 kg hm-2和600 kg hm-2,W表示小麦秸秆还田,M表示玉米秸秆的1/3还田,O表示施用有机肥(每年施用鸡粪30 m3hm-2)。土壤呼吸采用碱液吸收法测定,每个处理6次重复,结果表明:(1)土壤呼吸季节动态明显,夏季高冬季低,土壤呼吸排放速率与5cm深度地温线性拟合最好(R2=0.63~0.74,p<0.001),而与地表温度线性拟合最差。各处理土壤呼吸的年通量在5650~7061 kg.hm-2(纯C计,下同),随着秸秆还田量的增加,土壤呼吸通量显著增加(p=0.05),随着施氮量的增加土壤呼吸通量也增加,但只有施氮量相差400 kg hm-2时,土壤呼吸通量差异显著(p=0.05),施用有机肥的处理土壤呼吸通量最高,有机肥施用后1~2个月,有机肥快速分解,表现为高的土壤呼吸通量。由土壤呼吸与5cm深度地温指数拟合方程求得的Q10值在1.86~2.26之间。     

Role for dopamine in malonate-induced damage in vivo in striatum and in vitro in mesencephalic cultures

Defects in mitochondrial energy metabolism have been implicated in the pathology of several neurodegenerative disorders. In addition, the reactive metabolites generated from the metabolism and oxidation of the neurotransmitter dopamine (DA) are thought to contribute to the damage to neurons of the basal ganglia. We have previously demonstrated that infusions of the metabolic inhibitor malonate into the striata of mice or rats produce degeneration of DA nerve terminals. In the present studies, we demonstrate that an intrastriatal infusion of malonate induces a substantial increase in DA efflux in awake, behaving mice as measured by in vivo microdialysis. Furthermore, pretreatment of mice with tetrabenazine (TBZ) or the TBZ analogue Ro 4-1284 (Ro-4), compounds that reversibly inhibit the vesicular storage of DA, attenuates the malonate-induced DA efflux as well as the damage to DA nerve terminals. Consistent with these findings, the damage to both DA and GABA neurons in mesencephalic cultures by malonate exposure was attenuated by pretreatment with TBZ or Ro-4. Treatment with these compounds did not affect the formation of free radicals or the inhibition of oxidative phosphorylation resulting from malonate exposure alone. Our data suggest that DA plays an important role in the neurotoxicity produced by malonate. These findings provide direct evidence that inhibition of succinate dehydrogenase causes an increase in extracellular DA levels and indicate that bioenergetic defects may contribute to the pathogenesis of chronic neurodegenerative diseases through a mechanism involving DA.     

SSTR5 ablation in islet results in alterations in glucose homeostasis in mice

Somatostatin (SST) peptide is a potent inhibitor of insulin secretion and its effect is mediated via somatostatin receptor 5 (SSTR5) in the endocrine pancreas. To investigate the consequences of gene ablation of SSTR5 in the mouse pancreas, we have generated a mouse model in which the SSTR5 gene was specifically knocked down in the pancreatic beta cells (betaSSTR5Kd) using the Cre-lox system. Immunohistochemistry analysis showed that SSTR5 gene expression was absent in beta cells at three months of age. At the time of gene ablation, betaSSTR5Kd mice demonstrated glucose intolerance with lack of insulin response and significantly reduced serum insulin levels. Insulin tolerance test demonstrated a significant increase of insulin clearance in vivo at the same age. In vitro studies demonstrated an absence of response to SST-28 stimulation in the betaSSTR5Kd mouse islet, which was associated with a significantly reduced SST expression level in betaSSTR5Kd mice pancreata. In addition, betaSSTR5Kd mice had significantly reduced serum glucose levels and increased serum insulin levels at 12 months of age. Glucose tolerance test at an older age also indicated a persistently higher insulin level in betaSSTR5Kd mice. Further studies of betaSSTR5Kd mice had revealed elevated serum C-peptide levels at both 3 and 12 months of age, suggesting that these mice are capable of producing and releasing insulin to the periphery. These results support the hypothesis that SSTR5 plays a pivotal role in the regulation of insulin secretion in the mouse pancreas.

Morphine-potentiated platelet aggregation in in vitro and platelet plug formation in in vivo experiments

The detailed mechanisms underlying morphine-signaling pathways in platelets remain obscure. Therefore, we systematically examined the influence of morphine on washed human platelets. In this study, washed human platelet suspensions were used for in vitro studies. Furthermore, platelet thrombus formation induced by irradiation of mesenteric venules with filtered light in mice pretreated with fluorescein sodium was used for an in vivo thrombotic study. Morphine concentration dependently (0.6, 1, and 5 microM) potentiated platelet aggregation and the ATP release reaction stimulated by agonists (i.e., collagen and U46619) in washed human platelets. Yohimbine (0.1 microM), a specific alpha(2)-adrenoceptor antagonist, markedly abolished the potentiation of morphine in platelet aggregation stimulated by agonists. Morphine also potentiated phosphoinositide breakdown and intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization in human platelets stimulated by collagen (1 microg/ml). Moreover, morphine (0.6-5 microM) markedly inhibited prostaglandin E(1) (10 microM)-induced cyclic AMP formation in human platelets, while yohimbine (0.1 microM) significantly reversed the inhibition of cyclic AMP by morphine (0.6 and 1 microM) in this study. The thrombin-evoked increase in pH(i) was markedly potentiated in the presence of morphine (1 and 5 microM). Morphine (2 and 5 mg/g) significantly shortened the time require to induce platelet plug formation in mesenteric venules. We concluded that morphine may exert its potentiation in platelet aggregation by binding to alpha(2)-adrenoceptors in human platelets, with a resulting inhibition of adenylate cyclase, thereby reducing intracellular cyclic AMP formation followed by increased activation of phospholipase C and the Na(+)/H(+) exchanger. This leads to increased intracellular Ca(2+) mobilization, and finally potentiation of platelet aggregation and of the ATP release reaction.     

Changes in aquatic vegetation in Rhine floodplain streams in Alsace in relation to disturbance

Abstract. Changes are described in aquatic vegetation in oligotrophic, groundwater-fed Rhine floodplain streams in Alsace (eastern France), resulting from disturbance. Disturbance factors include changes in nutrients, either permanent ones - effluent from a waste water treatment plant or trout hatcheries - or periodic ones: flooding. Regular inputs of high levels of phosphate and ammonia modified the macrophyte vegetation in these streams. The floristic composition, which was characteristic of oligotrophic waters upstream of the eutrophicated sector, changed to that of a eutrophic situation as originally found downstream. Periodic disturbance by floods which normally occur once a year, irregularly eutrophicates the small streams, causing the development of a mixture of eutrophic and oligotrophic species. Six macrophyte communities are distinguished, indicating different trophic levels. The aquatic vegetation is adapted to the variations of phosphate and ammonia levels. Hence, aquatic macrophytes can be used as bio-indicators of fluctuations in water nutrient levels in relation to the type of disturbance.     

Progress in glial cell studies in some laboratories in China

Glial cells in the central nervous system(CNS) consist of a heterogeneous population of cell types,each characterized by distinct morphological features,physiological properties,and specific markers.In contrast to the previous view that glial cells were passive elements in the brain,accumulating evidence suggests that glial cells are active participants in various brain functions and brain disorders.This review summarizes recent progress of glial cell studies from several groups in China,ranging from studie...
