剪叶疏花条件下高浓度CO2对汕优63生长和产量的影响

利用稻田FACE(Free Air CO_2Enrichment)系统平台,以杂交稻汕优63为供试材料,二氧化碳设环境CO_2浓度(Ambient)和高CO_2浓度(Ambient+200μmol/mol),抽穗期源库改变设剪叶(剪除剑叶)和疏花处理(相间剪除1次枝梗),以不处理为对照(CK),研究大气CO_2浓度升高对不同源库处理水稻产量形成及物质生产的影响。结果表明:CK条件下,大气CO_2浓度升高使汕优63籽粒产量显著增加32%,这主要与单位面积总颖花量大幅增加(+26%)有关,结实能力亦呈增加趋势但未达显著水平。大气CO_2浓度升高使抽穗期剪叶处理水稻的籽粒产量平均增加55%,明显大于对照水稻,这主要与受精率(+28%)、饱粒率(+23%)和所有籽粒平均粒重(+19%)大幅增加有关。相反,对抽穗期疏花处理水稻而言,高CO_2浓度环境下籽粒产量的增幅(+25%,P=0.07)明显小于对照水稻,这主要与结实能力的响应略有下调有关。与产量响应类似,大气CO_2浓度升高使对照、剪叶和疏花条件下最终生物量分别增加39%、43%和28%,除疏花处理外均达显著水平。抽穗期剪叶和疏花处理本身使水稻籽粒产量分别降低40%和45%,前者主要是结实能力大幅下降所致,而后者与总颖花量减半相关。以上结果表明,大气CO_2浓度升高使杂交水稻生产力大幅增加,人为减小源库比(如剪叶)可增强CO_2肥料效应,而增加源库比(如疏花)则可使这种肥料效应减弱。     

不同秧苗素质和移栽密度条件下臭氧胁迫对水稻光合作用、物质生产和产量的影响

近地层臭氧浓度升高使水稻生长受抑进而使产量下降,但这种影响是否因不同栽培条件而异尚不清楚。2011年依托先进的稻田臭氧FACE(Free Air gas Concentration Enrichment)技术平台,以汕优63为供试材料,臭氧设置大气臭氧浓度(Ambient)和高臭氧浓度(比Ambient高50%),秧苗素质设置弱苗(移栽时无分蘖)和壮苗(移栽时带两个分蘖),移栽密度设置低密度(16穴/m2)、中密度(24穴/m2)和高密度(32穴/m2),研究不同秧苗素质和移栽密度条件下臭氧胁迫对水稻生长和产量的影响。结果表明:高浓度臭氧使水稻结实期叶片SPAD值、净光合速率、气孔导度和蒸腾速率明显下降,但胞间CO2浓度和叶温无显著变化。高浓度臭氧对水稻拔节前物质生产量没有影响,但使拔节至抽穗期、抽穗至成熟期物质生产量平均分别降低13%和29%,进而使成熟期生物产量和籽粒产量均显著下降。方差分析表明,臭氧与秧苗素质间没有互作效应,但臭氧与移栽密度的互作对最终产量的影响达显著水平。以上结果表明,臭氧胁迫使水稻生长后期光合受阻,导致物质生产和产量显著下降;适当增加移栽密度可能会减少臭氧胁迫下水稻产量的损失。     

大气CO_2浓度和温度升高对超级稻生长发育的影响

利用稻田FACE(Free Air gas Concentration Enrichment)系统,设置对照(Ambient,环境空气)、CO2浓度增高(EC,比Ambient增200μmol·mol-1)、温度增高(ET,比Ambient增2℃)和CO2浓度与温度同步增高(EC+ET)4个处理,研究其对超级杂交籼稻Ⅱ优084生长发育的影响。结果表明:与Ambient相比,EC或EC+ET使水稻抽穗和成熟期推迟1~3d,但ET对生育期没有影响;EC、EC+ET使水稻成熟期单茎干重分别增加49%、40%,均达显著水平,但ET则呈相反趋势;与Ambient相比,EC使成熟期叶片、茎鞘、稻穗及地上部干重分别增加40%、69%、30%和39%,均达极显著水平;ET使对应部位干重分别减少11%、21%、31%和26%,除茎鞘外均达显著或极显著水平;EC+ET使对应部位干重分别增加40%、47%、10%和18%,除稻穗外均达显著水平;抽穗期和抽穗后20 d各器官干重及地上部总重对各处理的响应趋势一致,但幅度明显小于成熟期;与生物量不同,各处理对结实期物质分配比例影响较小;EC、EC+ET使水稻成熟期茎鞘非结构性碳水化合物浓度和含量显著增加,但ET表现出相反趋势。综上所述,大气CO2浓度和温度同时升高情形下,超级稻Ⅱ优084收获期茎鞘同化物浓度和含量、各器官干重以及地上部生长总量均明显增加,但增幅略小于单独CO2浓度升高环境下生长的水稻。     

臭氧胁迫对稻穗不同部位糙米直链淀粉含量和RVA谱特征值的影响

近地层臭氧浓度升高使水稻产量下降,但臭氧胁迫对稻米品质的影响及其强弱势粒差异尚不清楚.本研究以8个不同类型水稻品种为供试材料,利用自然光气体熏蒸平台,设置对照(9 nL·L^-1)和高浓度臭氧(约100 nL·L^-1)处理,研究臭氧胁迫对稻穗不同部位糙米直链淀粉含量和RVA谱特征值的影响.结果表明: 与对照相比,臭氧处理使糙米直链淀粉含量、最高粘度、热浆粘度、崩解值和冷胶粘度分别下降5.9%、7.6%、5.9%、11.6%、2.9%,消减值和糊化温度分别增加24.9%和1.0%,均达显著水平.稻米直链淀粉含量和所有RVA特征参数的品种间差异均达极显著水平.稻穗不同部位稻米直链淀粉含量、最高粘度、热浆粘度、崩解值、冷胶粘度从大到小依次为强势粒>中势粒>弱势粒,消减值则表现相反.绝大多数情形下,臭氧与年度或臭氧与品种间的互作对稻米直链淀粉含量和RVA谱的影响达显著水平;尽管稻米RVA特征值对臭氧胁迫的响应多表现为稻穗上部略小于中部和下部,但臭氧与部位间的互作均未达显著水平.表明中等强度的臭氧胁迫使水稻食味品质明显变劣,变劣的程度因生长季和供试品种而异,籽粒着生位置受臭氧胁迫的影响较弱.     

高浓度CO2对稻穗不同位置籽粒结实和米质性状的影响

不断升高的大气CO₂浓度影响水稻颖花发育、灌浆结实和品质形成,但这种影响是否与籽粒在稻穗上的着生部位有关尚不清楚.利用稻田FACE (Free-Air CO₂ Enrichment)平台,以优质丰产粳稻‘武运粳23’为材料,CO₂处理设背景CO₂浓度(Ambient)和高CO₂浓度(增200 μmol·mol^-1, FACE)两个水平,研究开放大田条件下高浓度CO₂对水稻颖花密度、籽粒结实能力、稻米外观和食味品质的影响及其与稻穗不同着生位置的关系.结果表明:FACE处理使武运粳23籽粒产量平均增加18.3%,从产量构成因素看,穗数和饱粒重分别增加21.4%、9.4%,每穗颖花数、饱粒率平均减少9.0%、2.2%.FACE水稻饱粒率下降主要与稻穗不同部位空粒率大幅增加有关.FACE水稻每穗颖花数减少主要与稻穗上部、中部二次枝梗现存颖花大幅减少有关,而其他位置颖花数均无显著变化;稻穗不同位置饱粒重和饱粒率对FACE的响应无显著差异.FACE处理使绿粒率下降,但糙米长度和宽度均增加,稻穗不同部位趋势一致.FACE使垩白粒率(增幅59%)、垩白度(增幅55%)均极显著增加,增幅表现为稻穗一次枝梗>二次枝梗、上部>中部>下部.FACE使稻穗不同位置稻米直链淀粉含量略增,使最高粘度、热浆粘度、崩解值、最终粘度和消减值略降,但多未达显著水平.FACE使稻米糊化温度显著下降,弱势粒的降幅大于强势粒.综上,高浓度CO₂环境下武运粳23产量增加主要与穗数增多和籽粒增重有关,而稻穗明显变小;高浓度CO₂使稻米绿粒率减少,垩白增多,而对蒸煮食味品质影响较少;颖花着生位置对高浓度CO₂环境下水稻颖花发育、结实和品质的影响因不同测定指标而异.     

匍茎翦股颖对Cu2+、Zn2+、Cd2+与Pb2+ 胁迫的生长响应与阈限浓度

采用砂培法,研究了匍茎翦股颖对Cu2+、Zn2+、Cd2+与Pb2+胁迫的生长响应及阈限浓度,结果表明:种子萌发率随着4种重金属浓度的增加而下降。对株高的影响是当重金属浓度小于100mg/L时会促进株高生长,高于100mg/L则产生抑制作用。Cu2+显著抑制根系生长,并随浓度的增加抑制效应愈加显著;在Cu2+浓度为600mg/L时匍茎翦股颖的根长比对照下降了93.75%。Cu2+、Zn2+、Pb2+浓度小于200mg/L时会促进地上生物量的增加,但高于200mg/L时,地上生物量会随着3种重金属的增加而减少。Cu2+、Zn2+浓度小于100mg/L或Cd2+、Pb2+浓度小于200mg/L会增加叶绿素的含量,高浓度会降低叶绿素的含量;Cd2+在浓度为600mg/L时显著降低叶绿素含量,与对照相比,下降了43.55%。匍茎翦股颖生长的综合效应分析表明,匍茎翦股颖对Cu2+胁迫最敏感,具有较低的阈限浓度,而Zn2+胁迫对匍茎翦股颖的生长影响最小,阈限浓度相对较高。     

不同天气水稻光合日变化对大气CO2浓度和温度升高的响应——FACE研究

人类活动导致大气二氧化碳浓度(CO_2)升高、全球气候变暖和光合有效辐射(PAR)降低,影响着绿色作物的光合作用。为了明确高CO_2浓度、高温和低PAR对水稻光合日变化特征的影响,利用中国稻田开放空气CO_2浓度升高系统(free air CO_2enrichment,FACE),以常规粳稻南粳9108为试验材料,设置了环境CO_2和高CO_2浓度(增200μmol/mol)、环境温度和增高温度(增1—2℃)交互的4个处理,从9:00到17:00每隔1h测定了阴天和晴天水稻的光合作用,研究了不同天气对水稻光合日变化对大气CO_2浓度和温度升高的响应。观察到不同天气条件下水稻光合日变化的不同特征,晴天Pn为双峰曲线,发生了光合"午休",阴天未发生。结果表明,高CO_2浓度显著提高了水稻Pn,温度升高有降低水稻Pn趋势,CO_2浓度增加200μmol/mol对水稻光合作用的促进效应远大于增温1—2℃对其的抑制效应。高CO_2浓度显著增加了水稻胞间CO_2浓度(Ci),降低了水稻蒸腾速率(Tr),平均降幅为10.8%—22.0%。高温有降低Ci的趋势,增加了Tr,平均增幅达5.0%—13.5%。晴天比阴天增加了水稻Tr,平均增幅为9.8%—31.2%。CO_2浓度和温度同时升高显著降低了水稻气孔导度(Gs)。这些结果说明CO_2浓度、温度和PAR对水稻水分利用率(WUE)产生综合影响。阴天PAR比晴天平均低53.3%,阴天水稻Pn比晴天显著低,平均降幅达37.1%—72.0%。与对照比较,高CO_2浓度处理,较高PAR(晴天)条件下水稻Pn的增幅(38.6%—58.4%)显著大于较低PAR(阴天)条件下水稻Pn的增幅(21.6%—38.8%),这一现象值得关注和深入探讨。研究结果表明,评估气候变化对水稻生产的影响,需同时考虑未来大气CO_2浓度和温度升高以及PAR下降的因素及其相互作用。     

FACE系统处理三年后淹水条件下土壤CH4和CO2排放变化

采用淹水培养实验（25（C），在实验室CO2浓度和高CO2浓度（1000μlL^-1）条件下，研究了稻麦轮作FACE系统运行3a后FACE处理和大气CO2浓度（Ambient）处理土壤CO2和CH4排放的差异。实验结果表明：经过FACE处理后，土壤有机碳含量较Ambient处理提高11%。在实验室和高CO2浓度下淹水培育60d，FACE处理土壤CO2累积排放量较Ambient处理土壤分别增加35%和22%，CH4累积排放量分别是Ambient处理土壤的2.6倍和2.3倍。高CO2浓度下培养，显著促进FACE和Ambient处理土壤的CO2排放量（p〈0.01），促进CH4排放量，但未达到统计显著水平（p〉0.05）。由此说明，大气CO2浓度升高可能直接影响土壤有机碳的转化速率和CO2及CH4的排放。     

开放式空气CO2浓度增高对水稻产量形成的影响

在大田栽培条件下,研究开放式空气CO₂浓度增加(FACE)200μmol·mol^-1的处理对水稻产量及产量构成因素的影响.结果表明,FACE处理对水稻株高和主茎叶片数没有明显影响,但使水稻生育进程加快,全生育期显著缩短,增加施N量可减缓FACE处理对水稻全生育期缩短的程度;FACE处理能显著增加分蘖数,极显著增加穗数,提高结实率,但使每穗颖花数显著减少;FACE处理能显著提高水稻产量,在高N条件下增产幅度更大;提高FACE处理的每穗颖花数和单位面积颖花数能极显著提高水稻产量,增加施N量是提高FACE处理每穗颖花数和单位面积颖花数的重要措施.     

施用生物炭和秸秆还田对华北农田CO2、N2O排放的影响

以华北农田冬小麦-夏玉米轮作体系连续6a施用生物炭和秸秆还田的土壤为研究对象,于2013年10月—2014年9月,采用静态暗箱-气相色谱法,对CO_2、N_2O通量进行了整个轮作周期的连续观测,探究施用生物炭与秸秆还田对其排放通量的影响。试验共设4个处理:CK(对照)、C1(低量生物炭4.5 t hm~(-2)a~(-1))、C2(高量生物炭9.0 t hm~(-2)a~(-1))和SR(秸秆还田straw return)。结果表明:在整个轮作周期内,各处理CO_2、N_2O通量随时间的变化趋势基本一致。随着生物炭施用量的增加,CO_2排放通量分别增加了0.3%—90.3%(C1)、1.0%—334.2%(C2)和0.4%—156.3%(SR)。其中,C2处理对CO_2累积排放量影响最大,增幅为42.9%。对N_2O而言,C2处理显著降低了N_2O累积排放量,但增加了CO_2和N_2O排放的综合增温潜势,C1和SR处理对N_2O累积排放量及综合增温潜势均没有显著影响。相关分析表明,土壤温度和土壤含水量是影响CO_2通量最主要的因素,两者之间呈极显著的正相关关系;N_2O通量与土壤温度、土壤含水量、NO_3~--N和NH_4~+-N均表现出极显著的正相关关系,而与土壤p H值表现出极显著的负相关关系。由此可见,添加生物炭对于减少氮素的气体损失具有较大的潜力。     

Definitions,measurements, and classifications of stimuli,situations, and environments

A review is presented of issues relevant to the definition, measurement, and classification of stimuli, situations, and environments. Problems such as the lack of adequate definitions of concepts, error and bias in measurement procedures, confusion between measurement of a concept and measurement of its behavioral effects, and the lack of agreement among alternative measures are emphasized. It is suggested that concepts be defined in terms of objective characteristics while allowing for the study of the transactional relationship between organism and environment. The work of the ethologists in defining stimuli while studying their relationship to different organismic states and situational contexts is emphasized in this regard. Following Brunswik, it is also suggested that wherever possible there be a representative sampling of variables in natural settings. Note from the editors: From time to time, Human Ecology will publish a review article. Our first in this series is a review by a psychologist of basic definitional and conceptual problems in environmental studies.This paper was prepared while the author was a Visiting Research Fellow at the Educational Testing Service. The support of ETS and my colleagues in the Division of Psychological Studies is gratefully acknowledged. The review was also supported in part by a grant from the Rutgers University Research Council.     

Synthesis,tautomerism, and antimicrobial,anti-HCV,anti-SSPE,antioxidant, and antitumor activities of arylazobenzosuberones

2-Dimethylaminomethylene-1-benzosuberone 1 was coupled with diazotized aniline derivatives to afford a series of the hitherto unreported 2-arylazo-1-benzosuberones 3a–i. The tautomeric structure and the effect of substituents on the tautomeric form (s) of the products 3a–i were discussed. Similar coupling of the enaminone 1 with diazonium salts of heterocyclic amines gave the respective fused azolotriazino-benzosuberones. Some of the newly synthesized compounds showed potent antimicrobial, anti-HCV, antioxidant, antitumor (as topoisomerase I inhibitors), and antimicrobial activities.     

The effect of malathion,diazinon, and various concentrations of zinc,copper, nickel,lead, iron,and mercury on fish

Acute and chronic toxicity tests for malathion, diazinon, copper (Cu), mercury (Hg), lead (Pb), zinc (Zn), nickel (Ni), and iron (Fe) were conducted. Mortalities ofBarilius vagra andCyprinus carpio (common carp) were variable but LC50-96 hr were similar for pesticides. AdultB. vagra seem to be more sensitive to malathion than juvenile carp. Both juvenile carp and adultB. vagra were extremely sensitive to diazinon. Long-term exposure to pesticides modified morphology and behavior. The LC50-96 values for Cu, Hg, and Pb were 0.3, 0.16, and 0.44, respectively, for smaller fish and 1.0, 0.77, and 1.33, respectively, for larger fish. Replicate LC50 values for Zn, Ni, and Fe were somewhat variable, and for these metals, the size of the fish seemed to affect response because LC50 values increased as fish size increased. Cooper, Pb, Zn, and Fe residues following exposure to sublethal concentrations of these metals for 15 d were significantly greater in whole juvenile common carp than in controls.     

Synthesis and properties of N-, O-, and S-phospho derivatives of amino acids, peptides, and proteins

The literature on chemical (i.e., nonenzymic) phosphorylation of amino acids, peptides, and proteins is reviewed through 1982. The review covers synthetic methods, chemical reactions, and physical properties, with emphasis on the techniques used for separation and characterization of the products. Synthetic methods are classified by reagent rather than product, and are illustrated by experimental procedures for the most important methods. Chemical reactions are classified into four groups depending on whether the reaction site is the phospho group, the amino group, the carboxyl group, or in the case of serine the hydroxyl group. Physical data are given for all of the known N-, O-, and S-phospho derivatives of the amino acids, peptides, and proteins, within certain limitations, and are discussed in detail in the section on physical properties. Emphasis is given to the techniques used for separation of the products, such as chromatography and electrophoresis, and for characterization of the products, particularly spectroscopy. Medical and other uses of the products are mentioned.     

Low-frequency dynamics and Raman scattering of crystals, of B-, A-, and Z-DNA, and fibers of C-DNA

Normal modes of vibration of DNA in the low-frequency region (10-300 cm-1 interval) have been identified from Raman spectra of crystals of B-DNA [d(CGCAAATTTGCG)], A-DNA [r(GCG)d(CGC) and d(CCCCGGGG)], and Z-DNA [d(CGCGCG) and d(CGCGTG)]. The lowest vibrational frequencies detected in the canonical DNA structures--at 18 +/- 2 cm-1 in the B-DNA crystal, near 24 +/- 2 cm-1 in A-DNA crystals, and near 30 +/- 2 cm-1 in Z-DNA crystals--are shown to correlate well with the degree of DNA hydration in the crystal structures, as well as with the level of hydration in calf thymus DNA fibers. These findings support the assignment [H. Urabe et al. (1985) J. Chem. Phys. 82, 531-535; C. Demarco et al. (1985) Biopolymers 24, 2035-2040] of the lowest frequency Raman band of each DNA to a helix mode, which is dependent primarily upon the degree of helix hydration, rather than upon the intrahelical conformation. The present results show also that B-, A-, C-, and Z-DNA structures can be distinguished from one another on the basis of their characteristic Raman intensity profiles in the region of 40-140 cm-1, even though all structures display two rather similar and complex bands centered within the intervals of 66-72 and 90-120 cm-1. The similarity of Raman frequencies for B-, A-, C-, and Z-DNA suggests that these modes originate from concerted motions of the bases (librations), which are not strongly dependent upon helix backbone geometry or handedness. Correlation of the Raman frequencies and intensities with the DNA base compositions suggests that the complex band near 90-120 cm-1 in all double-helix structures is due to in-plane librational motions of the bases, which involve stretching of the purine-pyrimidine hydrogen bonds. This would explain the centering of the band at higher frequencies in structures containing G.C pairs (greater than 100 cm-1) than in structures containing A.T pairs (less than 100 cm-1), consistent with the strengths of G.C and A.T hydrogen bonding.     

Synthesis,spectroscopic, and antibacterial activity of tetraazamacrocyclic complexes of trivalent chromium,manganese, and iron

A new series of macrocyclic complexes of type [M(TML)X]X₂, where M = Cr(III), Mn(III), or Fe(III), TML is tetradentate macrocyclic ligand, and X = Cl^?, NO₃^?, CH₃COO^? for Cr(III), Fe(III) and X = CH₃COO^? for Mn (III), has been synthesized by condensation of benzil and succinyldihydrazide in the presence of metal salt. The complexes have been so formulated due to the 1:2 electrolytic nature of these complexes as shown by conductivity measurements. The complexes have been characterized with the help of various physicochemical techniques such as elemental analysis, molar conductance, electronic and infrared spectral studies, and magnetic susceptibility. On the basis of these studies, a five-coordinate distorted square pyramidal geometry, in which two nitrogens and two carbonyl oxygen atoms are suitably placed for coordination toward the metal ion, has been proposed for all the complexes. The complexes have been tested for their in vitro antibacterial activity. Some of the complexes show remarkable antibacterial activities against some selected bacterial strains. The minimum inhibitory concentrations shown by these complexes have been compared with those shown by some standard antibiotics such as linezolid and cefaclor.
