Backward bifurcation of an epidemic model with treatment

An epidemic model with a limited resource for treatment is proposed to understand the effect of the capacity for treatment. It is assumed that treatment rate is proportional to the number of infectives below the capacity and is a constant when the number of infectives is greater than the capacity. It is found that a backward bifurcation occurs if the capacity is small. It is also found that there exist bistable endemic equilibria if the capacity is low.     

Time-Dependent Effects of Inosine on Competence Development in Haemophilus influenzae

The effect of inosine on the development of competence is dependent upon the time at which it is added to the competence medium. Competence is inhibited if inosine is added within 15 min after the development begins, but is stimulated if the addition is made at later times. Protein synthesis is stimulated by the addition of inosine, but the effect is quantitatively similar regardless of the time at which inosine is added.     

Autogenous control of Escherichia coli threonyl-tRNA synthetase expression in vivo

The regulation of the expression of thrS, the structural gene for threonyl-tRNA synthetase, was studied using several thrS-lac fusions cloned in lambda and integrated as single copies at att lambda. It is first shown that the level of beta-galactosidase synthesized from a thrS-lac protein fusion is increased when the chromosomal copy of thrS is mutated. It is also shown that the level of beta-galactosidase synthesized from the same protein fusion is decreased if wild-type threonyl-tRNA synthetase is overproduced from a thrS-carrying plasmid. These results strongly indicate that threonyl-tRNA synthetase controls the expression of its own gene. Consistent with this hypothesis it is shown that some thrS mutants overproduce a modified form of threonyl-tRNA synthetase. When the thrS-lac protein fusion is replaced by several types of thrS-lac operon fusions no effect of the chromosomal thrS allele on beta-galactosidase synthesis is observed. It is also shown that beta-galactosidase synthesis from a promoter-proximal thrS-lac operon fusion is not repressed by threonyl-tRNA synthetase overproduction. The fact that regulation is seen with a thrS-lac protein fusion and not with operon fusions indicates that thrS expression is autoregulated at the translational level. This is confirmed by hybridization experiments which show that under conditions where beta-galactosidase synthesis from a thrS-lac protein fusion is derepressed three- to fivefold, lac messenger RNA is only slightly increased.     

Discrete three-stage population model: persistence and global stability results

A general three-stage discrete-time population model is studied. The inherent net reproductive number for this model is derived. Global stability of the origin is established provided that the inherent net reproductive number is less than one. If it is larger than one the existence of a unique positive fixed point is proved and the persistence of the system is established. Finally, for certain parameter ranges global stability of the positive fixed point is proved.

Antidiuretic mechanism in Rhodnius prolixus (Stal, 1859) (Hemiptera, Reduviidae)

An antidiuretic mechanism is proposed for Rhodnius prolixus, whose activity is manifested when the diuretic phase has terminated and is maintained until the insect has fed again. Presumably this mechanism acts at the level of the proximal rectal sphincter and is inhibited by ingestion, mechanical distension of the gut and central disinhibition by decapitation. It is suggested that the antidiuretic activity is maintained by the nervous system and is modified when there is distention of the gut or when the nervous signal is interrupted by decapitation. It is demonstrated that the excretion of urine in R. prolixus is not controlled exclusively by the diuretic hormone, but rather that factors not linked to the haemolymph maintain the insects in a diuretic or nondiuretic state.     

Selection intensity against deleterious mutations in RNA secondary structures and rate of compensatory nucleotide substitutions

A two-locus model of reversible mutations with compensatory fitness interactions is presented; single mutations are assumed to be deleterious but neutral in appropriate combinations. The expectation of the time of compensatory nucleotide substitutions is calculated analytically for the case of tight linkage between sites. It is shown that selection increases the substitution time dramatically when selection intensity Ns > 1, where N is the diploid population size and s the selection coefficient. Computer simulations demonstrate that recombination increases the substitution time, but the effect of recombination is small when selection is weak. The amount of linkage disequilibrium generated in the process of compensatory substitution is also investigated. It is shown that significant linkage disequilibrium is expected to be rare in natural populations. The model is applied to the mRNA secondary structure of the bicoid 3' untranslated region of Drosophila. It is concluded that average selection intensity Ns against single deleterious mutations is not likely to be much larger than 1.     

山西省种子植物多样性分布格局与环境关系的研究

采用除趋势对应分析(DCA)、典范对应分析(CCA)对山西省12个区域的种子植物多样性及区系地理成分的分析表明,全省种子植物多样性格局可分为3类:第1类为山西省西部和北部山地,热量相对较低,海拔较高,降水随海拔升高而增加,气候垂直变化明显,小生境类型较多,分类强度大,区系成分中以北温带、旧世界温带属占绝对优势。第2类为山西中部地区,地势相对较低,水热条件中等,北温带成分仍为优势种,但旧世界温带分布属和泛热带分布属的比例增加。第3类为山西南部和东南部山区,降水量相对较高,但温度也高,蒸发量大,属的区系成分中以北温带成分为优势,但第二优势成分为泛热带亚洲成分,与前2类地区相比,热带成分明显增加。     

Oxidation of glycine by Phaseolus leghaemoglobin with associated catabolic reactions at the haem.

Leghaemoglobin from the root nodules of kidney bean (Phaseolus vulgaris) reacts in alkaline glycine solutions as a glycine oxidase in a reaction that may also be regarded as a coupled oxidation. Leghaemoglobin is reduced to the ferrous form by glycinate, the oxygen complex is formed, and finally the haem is attacked to yield a green reaction product. Glycine is simultaneously oxidized to glyoxylate, and hydrogen peroxide is generated. The initial velocity of the formation of the green product is proportional to the concentrations of leghaemoglobin and glycine, and the optimum pH for the reaction is 10.2. The green product is not formed if carbon monoxide, azide of imidazole is bound to the haem, whereas oxidation of glycine to glyoxylate is not inhibited by azide and not essentially by carbon monoxide. Haem breakdown is activated by digestion of leghaemoglobin by carboxypeptidase, and partly inhibited by catalase and superoxide dismutase.

扬子鳄视觉器官组织学研究

本文用光镜和电镜研究了扬子鳄(Alligator sinensis)的组织学,同时测量了其眼球的一些光学参数.扬子鳄眼球呈扁圆球形,角膜径与球径的比值为1:1.44;晶状体与角膜的比值为1:1.40。角膜内具鲍氏膜;虹膜内的括约肌、睫状体内的睫状肌均属横纹肌,视细胞椭圆体内线粒体嵴突与线粒体长轴相平行,这与报道的其它鳄类不同。虹膜内未见扩瞳肌纤维,角膜缘缺巩膜小骨片,晶状体环垫薄,因而其视觉调节能力仍然很弱。视网膜中视细胞由视杆细胞、单锥细胞、双锥细胞组成,其中以视杆细胞占多数。视细胞与神经节细胞核比值平均为2.5:1,表明扬子鳄的组织结构与其弱光视觉相适应。     

Homology and function in the wings of Heteroptera

Abstract. The homology of veins and other wing characters in Heteroptera is reviewed in the light of palaeontology and new functional studies. A cladogram is given for the higher taxa of Hemiptera. It is probable that the vannus is an autapomorphy of Auchenorrhyncha+Heteropteroidea; that the leading edge vein of heteropteran fore- and hindwings is C+Sc; that Rs cannot be distinguished from R; that the hamus is part of M; that the glochis is a secondary structure. The difficulty of defining a vein is stressed. The functional significance of the hemielytron, cuneal fracture and longitudinal flexion lines is discussed. A preliminary ground-plan for Heteroptera wings is presented.     

Use of binding site neighbor-effect parameters to evaluate the interactions between adjacent ligands on a linear lattice. Effects on ligand-lattice association.

A method using binding site "neighbor-effect" parameters (NEPs) is introduced to evaluate the effects of interaction between adjacent ligands on their binding to an infinite linear lattice. Binding site overlap is also taken into account. This enables the conditional probability approach of McGhee & von Hippel to be extended to more complex situations. The general equation for the isotherm is v/LF = SFKF, where v is the ratio of bound ligands to lattice residues, LF is the free ligand concentration, SF is the fraction of binding sites that are free, and KF is the average association constant of a free site. Solutions are derived for three cases: symmetric ligands, and asymmetric ligands on isotropic or anisotropic lattices. For symmetric ligands there is one NEP, E, which is the ratio of the average binding affinity of a free site if the status of the lattice residue neighboring one end of the site is unspecified (left to chance) to the affinity when this residue is free (holding the other neighbor constant). Thus KF is KE2, where K is the affinity of an isolated site. If a site is n residues long, SF is f ffn-1, where f = 1 - nv is the fraction of residues that are free and ff is the conditional probability that a free residue is bordered on a given side by another free residue. The expression for ff is 1/(1 + x/E), where x is v/f, E is (1 - x + [(1 - x)2 + 4x omega]1/2)/2, and omega is the co-operativity parameter. The binding of asymmetric ligands to an isotropic lattice is described by two NEPs; the last case involves four NEPs and a bound ligand orientation parameter. For each case, the expected length distribution of clusters of bound ligands can be calculated as a function of v. When Scatchard plots with the same intercepts and initial slope are compared, it is found that ligand asymmetry lowers the isotherm (relative to the corresponding symmetric ligand isotherm), whereas lattice anisotrophy raises it.

The modelling of fibre reorientation in soft tissue

In this paper, a hyperelastic and thermodynamically consistent model for soft tissue is developed that is able to describe the change of the initial orientation of the collagen fibres. Full numerical implementation is considered as well. The collagen architecture is assumed to reorient driven by a specific thermodynamical force. The anisotropy is described by a strain energy function, which is decomposed into a part related to the matrix and a part related to the fibres. The initial fibre orientation is defined by a structural tensor, while the current orientation is described by a time-dependent structural tensor, which results from the initial one by a rotational transformation. The rotation tensor is obtained via an integration process of a rate tensor, which depends on an adequately defined thermodynamical force. The integration is achieved via an exponential map algorithm, where it is shown that the rotation is necessarily a two-parametric one. Efficiency of the proposed formulation is demonstrated using some numerical examples.     

Linear selection indices for non-linear profit functions

Summary Two methods of deriving linear selection indices for non-linear profit functions have been proposed. One is by linear approximation of profit, and another is the graphical method of Moav and Hill (1966). When profit is defined as the function of population means, the graphical method is optimal. In this paper, profit is defined as the function of the phenotypic values of individual animals; it is then shown that the graphical method is not generally optimal. We propose new methods for constructing selection indices. First, a numerical method equivalent to the graphical method is proposed. Furthermore, we propose two other methods using quadratic approximation of profit: one is based on Taylor series about means before selection, and the other is based on Tayler series about means after selection. Among these different methods, it is shown that the method using quadratic approximation based on Taylor series about means after selection is the most efficient.
