五种雀形目鸟类核型的比较研究

染色体核型的比较研究,对于了解物种的特性,探索物种的遗传、进化、系统发育及分类地位都有一定的意义。有关鸟类的核型研究,国外已有不少报道(Castrovicja,1969; Hammar,1966,1975; Ray-Chaudhuri et al.,1969;Shidds,1982;Ta—kagi,1972等)国内在这方面的工作开展较迟,已作过核型分析的鸟类为数不多,仅见王应祥等(1982)的报道。迄今,作过核型研究的鸟类已达500多种,其中雀形目有200种。本文比较分析了五种野生雀形目鸟类的核型,它们是黑头蜡嘴雀,斑鸫,黄腹山雀,红尾伯劳和灰背椋鸟。     

“GUIHAIA”刊名注释

<正> 本刊用“Guihaia”作为外文刊名,是取自“桂海”的汉语拼音,并予拉丁化缀以“a”字尾而成。 “桂海”一词,较早出现在我国南朝梁文学家江淹的《杂体诗·袁太尉》:“文轸薄桂海”诗句中,以“南海有桂”,故曰桂海,桂海是泛指南方近海地方。其后,南宋诗人范成大曾任静江政(府治今桂林市)和广南西路(今广西)地方长官,就其见闻,追述广西山川、     

红树林植物海滨猫尾木在我国首次发现

红树林是发育于热带海岸潮间带的一种特殊的木本植物群落。据最近的报道补,我国南部沿海红树林的组成种类(包括半红树林成分)有卤蔽科、千屈菜科、海桑科、玉蕊科、使君子科、红树科、梧桐科、锦葵科、大戟科、糠科、紫金牛科、夹竹桃科、茜草科、爵床科·、马鞭草科、棕搁科等,共16科,20属,31种。最近我们通过海岸带植物调查和海南岛珍稀、濒危植物种类调查,首次发现了紫威科的海滨猫尾木的分布。现将其形态特征、分布和生态学特性简报于下: 海澳猫尾木(新拟)图 Dolichandrone spathaeae(L.f.)K.Sehum.,FI.Kais.Wilh.123.1889;Merr.F 1…     

白颈长尾雉

白颈长尾雉分布于长江以南、北纬24—31°的华东和华南地区,多栖于海拔300一800米的山谷林地内,以阔叶林和混交林为其最适栖息地。 白颈长尾难道常3—4只成小群活动,其活动以早晚为主,并形成两个日活动高峰。当然该雉的活动受到气候条件.食物基地、季节变化和人类活动等因素影响。 由于滥浦乱猎和栖息地的破坏,白颈长尾雉的数量十分稀少,已处于濒危状态。     

亚洲东南部特有的新悬藓属的研究

新悬藓属现知共4种,属于蔓藓科,为亚洲东南部特有,我国是该属植物分布的中心。本文提出拟猫尾藓仍归为船叶藓科更合适。     

易动瘦尾虫的形态和核器二分裂过程

研究发现了易动瘦尾虫体腹面边缘各有缘棘毛一排,在各排缘棘毛的边上,又各有两排排列比缘棘毛疏松的棘毛,及它背面中央尚有一列背触毛。该虫是腹毛类纤毛虫中一种进化比较低等的类型,但其大、小核已明显分化。大核共进行了4次无丝分裂,小核共进行了3次分裂。     

雄尾螨属二新种及马氏雄尾螨重新记述：（蜱螨亚纲：雄尾螨科）

作者在整理采自贵阳、长沙、武汉的马氏雄尾螨Arrenurus(Micruracarus)madarasziDaday标本中,发现了两个近似新种:拟马氏雄尾螨Arrenurus(Micruracarus)madarasziatus sp.nov.和华中雄尾螨Arrenurus(Micruracarus)huazhongensis sp.nov.本文记述了此三近以种,并作了特征鉴别。

Sokoloff's 2-deoxyglucose (2-DG) autoradiographic technique was used to identify changes of glucose metabolic rate in the rat brain following unilateral stimulation of the head of the caudate nucleus. The results were as follows. The local glucose metabolic rate after noxious stimulation was increased in the somatosensory cortex, cingulate cortex, ventroposterior and parafascicular nucleus of the thalamus, septal area, habenular nucleus, head of caudate nucleus, periaqueductal gray (PAG) and dorsal raphe nucleus (P < 0.05). After stimulating the head of the caudate nucleus, the local glucose metabolic rate of nucleus raphe magnus (rm) and nucleus paragigantocellularis (pgcl) was increased significantly and that of the PAG and dorsal raphe nucleus had a tendency to increase, while stimulation of the head of caudate nucleus could partially abolish the increased glucose metabolic rate in the somatosensory cortex, cingulate cortex, ventroposterior and parafascicular nucleus of the thalamus, septal area and habenular nucleus as induced by noxious stimulation. These results suggest that caudate stimulation is able to depress the activation of some brain structures related to nociception and to activate those related to antinociception. The pgcl, rm, PAG and dorsal raphe nucleus might be the key structures participating in the caudate stimulation produced analgesia.

Female Wistar rats were trained in a Skinner-box, 30 trials per day in a dark room to establish operant defence conditioning. Training started with a light (15 s), then combined with footshock for further 8 s. When the rats learned to press the key to avoid footshock within 15 s, conditioned response was considered established. After the rats reached a conditioning rate (CR) above 80% for 5 days, cannulae were implanted into caudate-putamen. Two to three days later, Met-enkephalin (MEK) or bestatin (an aminopeptidase inhibitor) was injected bilaterally into caudate-putamen. 30 min, 2 h, 24 h and 48 h after injection, conditioning tests were conducted, with each session consisting of 30 trials. Control experiments were done when 0.9% NaCl (NS) was injected. After injection of NS, CR maintained above 80% in all 4 test sessions. MEK (60 ng/rat) or bestatin (10 micrograms/rat) significantly lowered the CR during the 30 min and 2 h test session. In the latter case, the latency (L) was also prolonged. However both CR and L returned to the control level in the 24 h and 48 h test sessions. Naloxone (2 mg/kg, i.p.) blocked the conditioning-depression effect of bestatin. No significant alteration was seen in locomotor activity after MEK or bestatin injection. The results suggest that enkephalin in caudate-putamen may be involved in the regulation of retrieval of conditioning. Bestatin mimics the effect of MEK on conditioning reflex probably by increasing production of endogenous enkephalin.
