基于水量平衡原理的黄土高原林草植被覆盖度恢复潜力评估

为了科学评价黄土高原林草措施的可持续性，基于林草生态系统蒸散发（ET）与降雨补给之间的水量平衡动态关系，开展林草植被覆盖度恢复潜力研究具有一定的现实意义。利用实测水文气象要素数据和PML_V2 ET、GRACE和MOD13 A1 EVI等遥感产品，阐明了增强型植被指数（EVI）与ET的时空变化特征，构建了ET和EVI的定量响应关系，定量估算了不同降雨情景下黄土高原林草植被覆盖度恢复阈值与恢复潜力。研究结果表明：（1） PML产品基于通量站点观测值与水量平衡公式验证的误差分别为4.5 mm/8d、34.3 mm/a，产品精度优于MOD16 A2 GF。黄土高原2000-2018年多年平均ET为445.36 mm，多年平均EVI为0.17；黄土高原林草植被ET和EVI的增长速率分别为5.08 mm/a和0.0026/a。（2）利用多元逐步回归方法逐像元构建了ET与气象要素和EVI的最优响应关系模型，平均均方根误差（RMSE）为44.5 mm。（3）丰水年、平水年、枯水年不同降雨情景下黄土高原林草植被覆盖度平均恢复阈值为（71.5±37.3）%、（55.6±35.9）%和（22.4±26.0）%；平均恢复潜力为（9.4±30.4）%、（-6.4±23.8）%和（-39.7±26.2）%，平均RMSE为5.7%。（4）林草植被覆盖度恢复潜力存在空间异质性。不同历史降雨情景对干旱指数2.5-4区间的林草植被恢复潜力影响最为剧烈。若未来黄土高原经历长时期平水或枯水年时段，林草植被将会存在不同程度的退化风险。     

基于Meta分析的中国北方植被建设对土壤水分影响

植被建设是中国北方干旱半干旱地区防治风蚀和水蚀的最为有效手段,而合理的植被建设需要考虑土壤水分的植被承载力。在收集有关中国北方干旱半干旱地区植被建设后土壤水分研究文献的基础上,采用Meta分析研究了该地区植被建设(乔木和灌木)对土壤水分的影响。结果表明:北方干旱半干旱地区植被建设总体上对深层(40 cm以下)土壤水分含量产生显著降低作用(结合效应值为-0.40);乔木栽植导致土壤水分含量大幅度降低(-0.58),灌木栽植也在一定程度上导致土壤水分含量降低(-0.27),但其影响不显著;亚组分析表明,建植年限20 a的乔木以及栽植在降雨量超过400 mm以上地区的乔木是导致土壤水分含量显著降低的主要因素(其结合效应值分别为-0.62和-0.69);因此,乔木栽植对于土壤水分的消耗大于灌木,在该地区开展灌木栽植能够有效提高土壤水分利用效率。     

半干旱黄土高原苜蓿草地撂荒过程土壤水分变化特征

土壤水分是黄土高原植被恢复和生态建设的主要限制因子,明确土壤水分随植被演替的变化规律是阐明黄土高原植被与水分相互作用机制的重要基础。以半干旱黄土高原小流域苜蓿草地撂荒过程为研究对象,通过对2016-2018年生长季苜蓿群落、苜蓿+赖草群落、赖草群落和长芒草群落四种草地群落0-1.8 m土壤水分进行动态监测以及0-5 m深度土壤水分测定,分析不同演替阶段苜蓿草地土壤水分的动态特征,探讨土壤水分对苜蓿草地撂荒过程的响应。结果表明：（1）在苜蓿草地撂荒演替过程中,土壤水分随群落恢复时间的延长呈先增加后降低的变化,降水的年际动态显著影响不同演替群落的土壤水分响应;（2）0-0.4 m土壤水分主要受降水影响,使得各草地群落在这一层次没有显著差异（P>0.05）,而1 m以下的土壤水分含量则主要受植被类型的影响,各草地群落之间存在显著差异（P<0.05）;（3）0-5 m深层土壤水分随群落的演替,1 m以下各土层土壤水分含量逐渐增加,表明撂荒过程中使土壤水分得到了一定程度的恢复。研究结果揭示了苜蓿草地撂荒过程土壤水分的变化规律,可为黄土高原生态恢复提供理论依据。     

Effects of active and passive hyperthermia on heat shock protein 70 (HSP70)

Summary. The purpose of this study was to delineate the effects of hyperthermia and physical exercise on the heat shock protein 70 (HSP70) response in circulating peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBMCs). Six healthy, young (age: 24 ± 3 yrs), moderately trained males (VO_2max: 48.9 ± 2.7 ml · kg · min⁻¹) undertook two experimental trials in a randomised fashion in which the core temperature (T _c) was increased and then maintained at 39 °C during a 90 min bout by either active (AH) or passive (PH) means. AH involved subjects cycling at 90% of their lactate threshold in attire designed to impede heat loss mechanisms. In the PH trial, subjects were immersed up to the neck in a hot bath (40.2 ± 0.4 °C), once the critical T _c was achieved, intermittent cycling and water immersions were prescribed for the AH and PH conditions, respectively, to maintain the T _c at 39 °C. HSP70 was measured intracellularly pre, post and 4 h after trials, from circulating PBMCs using an ELISA technique. T _c reached 39 °C quicker in PH than during AH trials (PH: 21 ± 4 min vs. AH: 39 ± 6 min; P < 0.01), thereafter T _c was maintained around 39 °C (PH: 39.1 ± 0.2 °C; AH: 38.8 ± 0.3 °C; P > 0.05). AH induced a marked leukocytosis in all sub-sets (P < 0.05). PH generated significant monocytosis and granulocytosis (P < 0.05), without changes in lymphocyte counts (P > 0.05). There were no significant increases in intracellular HSP70 at 0 h (AH: Δ − 21.1 ± 44.8; PH: Δ + 12.5 ± 32.4 ng/mg TP/10³/μl PBMCs; P > 0.05) and 4 h (AH: Δ − 30.0 ± 40.1; PH: Δ + 36.3 ± 70.4 ng/mg TP/10³/μl PBMCs; P > 0.05) post active and passive heating. Peak HSP70 expressed as a fold-change from rest was also not increased by AH (1.1 ± 0.9; P > 0.05) or PH (3.2 ± 4.8; P > 0.05). There were no significant differences between the AH and PH trials at any time-point, and the HSP70 response appeared to be individual specific. These results did not allow us to delineate the effects of hyperthermia and other exercise associated stressors on the heat shock response and therefore further work is warranted.

Oxygen consumption by ammocoetes of the lampreyGeotria australis in air

 When covered by moistened lint-free gauze, the larvae (ammocoetes) of the lamprey Geotria australis survived, without apparent discomfort, for 4 days in water-saturated air at 10, 15 and 20 °C. In air, the mean standard rates of O₂ consumption of medium to large ammocoetes of G. australis (xˉ=0.52 g) at 10, 15 and 20 °C were 14.5, 35.7 and 52.1 μl⋅g^-1⋅h^-1, respectively. At 15 °C, the slope of the relationship between log O₂ consumption (μl O₂⋅h^-1) and log body weight for ammocoetes over a wide range in body weight was 0.987. The Q ₁₀s for rate of O₂ consumption between 10 and 15 °C, 15 and 20 °C and 10 and 20 °C were 4.9, 2.9 and 3.6, respectively. Our results and observations of the ammocoetes suggest that, when out of water, larval G. australis derives most of its O₂ requirements from cutaneous respiration, particularly at lower temperatures. This would be facilitated by the small size and elongate shape (and thus a relatively high surface-to-volume ratio), low metabolic rate, thin dermis, extensive subdermal capillary network and high haemoglobin concentration of larval G. australis.

Characterization of the catalytically active Mn(II)-loaded argE -encoded N -acetyl-l -ornithine deacetylase from Escherichia coli

The catalytically competent Mn(II)-loaded form of the argE-encoded N-acetyl-l-ornithine deacetylase from Escherichia coli (ArgE) was characterized by kinetic, thermodynamic, and spectroscopic methods. Maximum N-acetyl-l-ornithine (NAO) hydrolytic activity was observed in the presence of one Mn(II) ion with k _cat and K _m values of 550 s⁻¹ and 0.8 mM, respectively, providing a catalytic efficiency (k _cat/K _m) of 6.9 × 10⁵ M⁻¹ s⁻¹. The ArgE dissociation constant (K _d) for Mn(II) was determined to be 0.18 μM, correlating well with a value obtained by isothermal titration calorimetry of 0.30 μM for the first metal binding event and 5.3 μM for the second. An Arrhenius plot of the NAO hydrolysis for Mn(II)-loaded ArgE was linear from 15 to 55 °C, suggesting the rate-limiting step does not change as a function of temperature over this range. The activation energy, determined from the slope of this plot, was 50.3 kJ mol⁻¹. Other thermodynamic parameters were ΔG ^‡ = 58.1 kJ mol⁻¹, ΔH ^‡ = 47.7 kJ mol⁻¹, and ΔS ^‡ = –34.5 J mol⁻¹ K⁻¹. Similarly, plots of lnK _m versus 1/T were linear, suggesting substrate binding is controlled by a single step. The natural product, [(2S,3R)-3-amino-2-hydroxy-4-phenylbutanoyl]leucine (bestatin), was found to be a competitive inhibitor of ArgE with a K _i value of 67 μM. Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) data recorded for both [Mn(II)_(ArgE)] and [Mn(II)Mn(II)(ArgE)] indicate that the two Mn(II) ions form a dinuclear site. Moreover, the EPR spectrum of [Mn(II)Mn(II)(ArgE)] in the presence of bestatin indicates that bestatin binds to ArgE but does not form a μ-alkoxide bridge between the two metal ions.     

Variations in daytime net carbon and water exchange in a montane shrubland ecosystem in southeast Spain

Carbon and water fluxes in a semiarid shrubland ecosystem located in the southeast of Spain (province of Almería) were measured continuously over one year using the eddy covariance technique. We examined the influence of environmental variables on daytime (photosynthetically active photons, F _P >10 μmol m⁻² s⁻¹) ecosystem gas exchange and tested the ability of an empirical eco-physiological model based on F _P to estimate carbon fluxes over the whole year. The daytime ecosystem fluxes showed strong seasonality. During two solstitial periods, summer with warm temperatures (>15 °C) and sufficient soil moisture (>10 % vol.) and winter with mild temperatures (>5 °C) and high soil moisture contents (>15 % vol.), the photosynthetic rate was higher than the daytime respiration rate and mean daytime CO₂ fluxes were ca. −1.75 and −0.60 μmol m⁻² s⁻¹, respectively. Daytime evapotranspiration fluxes averaged ca. 2.20 and 0.24 mmol m⁻² s⁻¹, respectively. By contrast, in summer and early autumn with warm daytime temperatures (>10 °C) and dry soil (<10 % vol.), and also in mid-winter with near-freezing daytime temperatures the shrubland behaved as a net carbon source (mean daytime CO₂ release of ca. 0.60 and 0.20 μmol m⁻² s⁻¹, respectively). Furthermore, the comparison of water and carbon fluxes over a week in June 2004 and June 2005 suggests that the timing—rather than amount—of spring rainfall may be crucial in determining growing season water and carbon exchange. Due to strongly limiting environmental variables other than F _P, the model applied here failed to describe daytime carbon exchange only as a function of F _P and could not be used over most of the year to fill gaps in the data.

黄河流域是我国重要的生态屏障,研究黄河流域森林植被净初级生产力(Net Primary Productivity,NPP)的时空变化特征及驱动机制,对解释黄河流域森林碳汇/源变化具有重要意义。基于Google Earth Engine (GEE)云平台,利用MOD17A3H V6 NPP数据、MCD12Q1 V6土地覆盖类型数据、ECMWF/ERA5气象数据和USGS/SRTMGL1_003高程数据,采用岭回归分析、Hurst指数和冗余分析(Redundancy Analysis,RDA)对黄河流域2001-2019年森林NPP的时空变化特征及影响因子进行分析。结果表明:(1)2001-2019年,黄河流域森林平均总面积为3.66万km²,其中阔叶林、针叶林、混交林平均面积分别为:2.64万km²、0.01万km²和1.01万km²,森林NPP年总量呈线性增加趋势,其均值为8.99Tg C,年均增速为0.36Tg C/a,19a增长率为173.60%;不同森林类型的NPP年总量均值分别为:4.79Tg C (阔叶林)、6.04×10^-5Tg C (针叶林)和0.64Tg C (混交林),年均增速为:阔叶林(0.16Tg C/a)>混交林(0.04Tg C/a)>针叶林(6.98×10^-6Tg C/a)。(2)2001-2019年,黄河流域森林年均NPP呈线性增加趋势,其均值为241.58g C m^-2 a^-1,年均增速为7.18g C m^-2 a^-1,19a增长率为108.63%;不同森林类型的年均NPP均值分别为:178.48g C m^-2 a^-1(阔叶林)、0.60g C m^-2 a^-1(针叶林)和62.49g C m^-2 a^-1(混交林),年均增速为:阔叶林(4.75g C m^-2 a^-1)>混交林(2.39g C m^-2 a^-1)>针叶林(0.04g C m^-2 a^-1)。(3)黄河流域森林NPP呈增加趋势的面积占94.50%,其中显著增加的面积占73.29%;呈减少趋势的面积占5.50%,其中显著减少的面积占1.57%。阔叶林NPP显著增加的面积最高(76.78%),其次为混交林(60.84%),针叶林最少(56.76%)。(4)黄河流域森林NPP的Hurst指数(H)介于0.38-1.00之间,平均值为0.87,其中H≥0.5的像元数约占99.34%,黄河流域森林NPP在未来一段时间内仍保持持续增加趋势。(5)归因分析表明环境因子对黄河流域森林NPP时空变化的总解释率为55.80%,显著影响的环境因子为经度(35.50%)、降水(8.00%)、气温(6.50%)和纬度(5.40%)。2001-2019年黄河流域森林NPP呈增加趋势,且呈现较强的可持续性;GEE云平台结合冗余分析可及时、高效获取黄河流域森林NPP的时空变化并对其进行归因分析。     

Effects of light,temperature and salinity on the growth rate of harmful marine diatoms,Chaetoceros convolutus and C. concavicornis that kill netpen salmon

Chaetoceros convolutus and C. concavicornis have been implicated in the death of salmon in netpens in the Pacific Northwest by damaging the salmon's gills. To better understand how environmental factors affect the distribution of these two species, the interacting effects of light, temperature and salinity on growth rate were examined by growing these species under a range of temperatures (4–18 °C), light (10–175 μmol photon m⁻² s⁻¹) and salinities (10–30‰). For C. convolutus, the growth rate showed a hyperbolic relationship with irradiance at 8, 14 and 18 °C and light saturation occurred at 9, 14 and 20 μmol photon m^t s⁻¹ respectively. At 4 °C for C. convolutus and 8 °C for C. concavicornis, cells grew at μ_max, even at the lowest irradiances tested (10 μmol photon m⁻² s⁻¹). For C. convolutus, the amount of light required to saturate growth rate increased with temperature in an approximately linear fashion. The Q₁₀ was 1.88, calculated by averaging over both species. C. concavicornis was the more euryhaline species growing at salinities as low as 17.5‰, while C. convolutus grew only at 25‰ and above.     

Growth,maturation and survival in a laboratory-reared Rhabdocoelid Turbellarian,Macrostomum orthostylum (BRAUN 1885)

Growth, maturation and survival of a free living turbellarian Macrostomum orthostylum (BRAUN), from a brackish water fish-farm, were studied in the laboratory under a constant temperature of 24 °C. The worms tolerated a wide range of salinity (1 to 30‰). Maximum growth (total length) of 1000 μm was attained in 56 days with a mean growth rate of 15.7 μm d^-1. Minimum maturation time (7 days) and highest longevity (112 days) were recorded in 9%. salinity. Survival period was considerably longer at lower salinities (1 to 10‰) and showed negative relationship with higher salinities (11 to 30‰).

Cause of Senescence of Nine Sorts of Flowers

The levels of endogenous phytohormones and respiratory rate in nine sorts of flowers such as Cymbidium faberi Rolfe, Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth and others were investigated both at full bloom and senescence and meanwhile the effect of exogenous phytohormones on prolonging the blossoms and promoting ethylene production were tested. There is a high content of endogenous ethylene in all the long-lived flowere, about 3–16 folds higer than the short-lived ones. There is a high level of ABA at full blooming flowers of short-lived flowers, in which there is no or only some cytokinins in it, but the ratio of CTK (6BA+zeatin)/ABA is smaller(l.7). The endogenous ABA reached a much higher level at senescence in all nine sorts of flowers, so it is reasonable to consider that it is ABA which plays an important role of regulation in controlling flower's senescence. There is a much higher level of GA3 and zeatin in the long-lived flowers which is not demonstrated in the shortlived ones. The respiratory rate is one of the factors controtling the longevity of flowers, but it does not play a decided role. Application of 6BA and zeatin prolongs distinctly orchid’s longevity, however exogenous IAA through the promotive action on ethylene production, evidently extends the longevity of the flowers of the Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth.     

Photoregulation of seed germination of wild-type and of an aurea-mutant of tomato

Seed germination of an aurea mutant of tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is promoted by continuous irradiation with red, far-red or long-wavelength far-red (758 nm) light as well as by cyclic irradiations (5 min red or 5 min far-red/25 min darkness). Far-red light applied immediately after each red does not change the germination behaviour. Seed germination of the isogenic wild-type, cv. UC-105, is promoted by continuous and cyclic red light while it is inhibited by continuous and cyclic far-red light and by continious 758 nm irradiation. Far-red irradiation reverses almost completely the promoting effect of red light. The promoting effect (in the aurea mutant) and the inhibitory effect (in the wild-type) of continuous far-red light do not show photon fluence rate dependency above 20 nmol m⁻² s⁻¹. It is concluded that phytochrome controls tomato seed germination throgh low energy responses in both the wild type and the au mutant. The promoting effect of continuous and cyclic far-red light in the au mutant can be attributed to a greater sensitivity to P_fr.

The effects of glutamine of the maintenance of embryogenic cultures of Cryptomeria japonica

Summary Embryogenic tissues of sugi (Cryptomeria japonica) were induced on a modified Campbell and Durzan (CD) medium containing 1 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 600 mg l⁻¹ glutamine, and subcultured in the medium of the same composition for over 1 yr. This resulted in a mixed culture of embryogenic and non-embryogenic cells. When embryogenic cells were isolated and cultured independently, their capacity to form embryogenic aggregates was lost. Thus, the non-embryogenic cells present within a mixed culture system were essential to the formation of embryogenic aggregates. When embryogenic tissues were isolated and cultured independently on a high glutamine-containing (2400 mg l⁻¹) medium, dry weights and endogenous levels of glutamine increased, and the tissue could generate a large number of embryogenic aggregates. Amino acid analysis of embryogenic and non-embryogenic cells from the maintenance culture indicated a higher level of glutamine was present in the latter. The high endogenous level of glutamine in the non-embryogenic portion of mixed cell masses may be the supplier of glutamine for maintaining the embryogenic property of the tissues.     

Specificity of action of piperidylcholine derivatives as substrates of cholinesterases of various origin

The review deals with study of enzymologic properties of a novel highly specific acetylcholinesterase substrate, N-(β-acetoxyethyl) piperidinium iodomethylate (“piperidylcholine”), and its 30 derivatives that were tested as effectors of cholinesterases of mammals and various species of Pacific squids. It was proven for the first time that responsible for specificity of action was structure of cyclic ammonium grouping of the alcohol part of molecule of the ester substrate. Analysis of specificity is performed based on enzymatic hydrolysis parameters—activity of catalytic center of cholinesterases and bimolecular constant of the reaction rate that are determined at optimal and low substrate concentrations. Among the specially synthesized group of thioester compounds there is revealed one more highly specific acetylcholinesterase substrate—N-(β-acetoxyethyl) piperidinium.     

Interconnection of parameters of regulation system of lipid peroxidation and of morphophysiological parameters of mouse liver

A complex analysis of seasonal fluctuations of the mean group parameters of the system of regulation of lipid peroxidation has been performed in liver of Balb/c mice. Association of lipid characteristics and morphophysiological parameters is studied in the Balb/c mouse liver. An inter-connection is revealed between the liver index and the amount of lysoforms of phospholipids, the scale and character of the interconnection differing essentially depending on proportion of phos-phatidylcholine in mouse liver phospholipids.
