长江上游网箱养殖圆口铜鱼杀鲑气单胞菌杀鲑亚种的分离与鉴定

研究首次报道了圆口铜鱼(Coreius guichenoti)疥疮病, 从患病圆口铜鱼的肝脏中分离到优势菌株YTL1, 并运用形态学观察、生理生化检测、16S rRNA和6个管家基因的系统发育分析等对分离菌株进行鉴定。基于以上实验结果, YTL1被最终鉴定为杀鲑气单胞菌杀鲑亚种(Aeromonas salmonicida subsp. salmonicida)。通过标准Kirby-Bauer纸片扩散法进行抗菌药物敏感性试验, 筛选治疗该暴发病的有效药物, 结果显示YTL1对氟苯尼考, 诺氟沙星和氨苄青霉素等13种抗生素敏感, 对6种抗生素如杆菌肽, 链霉素和卡那霉素有耐药性, 对红霉素具有中等敏感性。因此, 氟苯尼考被建议用来伴饵投喂, 并取得了较好的疾病控制效果。草鱼幼鱼(Ctenopharyngodon idella)和斑马鱼(Danio rerio)的人工感染试验结果显示, 经腹腔注射7.6×106—7.6×108 CFU/mL的YTL1菌液后, 感染鱼的症状与患病圆口铜鱼症状相似。研究证明基于6个管家基因的多序列位点分型是鉴定杀鲑气单胞菌至亚种水平的一种有效方法, 杀鲑气单胞菌是圆口铜鱼人工养殖的最大威胁之一, 并发现鲤科鱼类, 如草鱼和斑马鱼均是杀鲑气单胞菌杀鲑亚种的易感宿主。     

长期施肥对红壤性水稻土有机氮组分的影响

通过16年的田间定位试验,研究了长期不同施肥模式对红壤性水稻土有机氮组分的影响.结果表明：长期化肥处理对土壤各氮素含量的作用不明显;有机物料循环特别是有机肥和化肥配施显著提高了土壤矿质氮和有机氮含量,提高幅度分别为55.2%和38.8%.有机物料循环处理显著提高了酸解性氮组分,其对土壤铵态氮、氨基糖氮和未知氮含量的提高幅度分别为36.5%、68.4%和73.9%;有机物料与化肥配施后,氨基酸氮含量也显著提高,提高幅度达71.1%,但是降低了未知氮含量,降低幅度为34.5%.此外,各施肥处理土壤累积矿化氮量均随培养时间的延长呈增加趋势,有机物循环或配施化肥处理土壤矿化氮量均高于单施化肥处理.     

紫茎泽兰与非洲狗尾草单、混种群落土壤酶活性和土壤养分的比较

 植物对土壤有效养分的影响是植物竞争取胜的重要生态策略之一, 土壤酶活性对土壤有效养分的变化具有重要作用。该文研究了紫茎 泽兰(Ageratina adenophora)单种(A)、非洲狗尾草(Setaria sphacelata)单种(S)和两物种混种(A+S)群落4种重要的土壤酶活性和土壤养分的 变化及其规律, 并对土壤酶活性与土壤养分进行了相关分析。结果表明: 1)群落S土壤有效氮(NH₄⁺-N和NO₃^--N)含量高于群落A对应养分含量, 而与群落A＋S该养分含量没有显著差异; 群落S土壤有效磷和有效钾含量低于群落A对应指标, 而群落A＋S其含量最低。2)群落S、A+S和A土壤蛋 白酶和脲酶活性的高低次序分别为S>A＋S>A、A＋S>S>A; 群落A+S、S和A磷酸酶活性依次升高; 群落A+S、A和S蔗糖酶活性依次降低。3)在生长 过程中, 3类群落土壤NO₃^--N、有效磷和有效钾含量在生长初期(5月)最高, 随后逐渐降低; 土壤NH₄⁺-N含量呈现单峰趋势, 在生长后期(9月)最 高。3类群落土壤蛋白酶和蔗糖酶活性随生长时间推移而升高, 在生长末期(11月)最高; 土壤磷酸酶和脲酶酶活性在生长过程中呈现单峰趋势, 在生长旺盛期(7月)最高。3类群落间土壤酶活性与土壤肥力具有较一致的相关性。由此推断, 非洲狗尾草对土壤含氮化合物的活化能力比紫茎 泽兰强, 且在种间竞争中能够强烈抑制紫茎泽兰对土壤含磷、含钾化合物的活化能力是其竞争取胜的可能原因; 不同植物群落土壤酶活性的差 异是引起土壤有效养分变化的重要驱动机制之一。     

Human Recombinant B7-H3 Expressed in E.colt Enhances T Lymphocyte Proliferation and IL-10 Secretion in Vitro

Since it was proposed in 1970, the two-signal hypothesis for T lymphocyte activation became widely accepted, which elucidated T cells required two distinct signals for optimal T helper precursor cell expansion. This model hypothesized that peptides presen…     

Developmental changes in hemolymph ecdysteroid level and prothoracicotropic hormone activity during the fifth larval instar of the Eri silkworm, Samia cynthia ricini

Developmental changes in hemolymph ecdysteroid level, ecdysteroid synthesis by prothoracic glands （PGs） in vitro, prothoracicotropic hormone （PTTH） activity in brain extracts, and PTTH activity in the hemolymph were measured during the fifth larval instar of the Eri silkworm, Samia cynthia ricini. The changing patterns of hemolymph ecdysteroid level and ecdysteroid synthesis by laGs in vitro are similar to each other, with maximums on day 9. However, on this day, hemolymph ecdysteroid level was substantially higher than ecdysteroid synthesis by PGs in vitro suggesting a high PTTH activity in the hemolymph on day 9. Moreover, the changing pattern of PTTH activity in brain extracts is also similar to that of PTTH activity in the hemolymph, both peaking on day 9. However, on this day, activity in brain extracts was much smaller than PTTH activity in the hemolymph implying that most PTTH synthesized by the brain is secreted to the hemolymph and the brain stores a very little amount of PTTH. This study provides unique insights onto the hormonal regulation of ecdysteroid synthesis in the Eri silkworm and is useful for our future studies on signal transduction of insect neurolaelatides.     

上海地区汉族人5-HT2a受体基因T102C多态性的基因频率分布

为了揭示中国汉族人5-HT2a受体基因T102C多态性基因频率的分布,我们随机抽取了226例汉族健康人作研究,用限制性片段长度多态性(RFLPs)技术测定研究对象的基因型和等位基因。结果发现汉族正常人5-HT2a受体基因T102C多态性基因型频率依次为:A1/A2=0.5044,A1/A1=0.2965,A2/A2 =0.1991,两种等位基因频率依次为:A1=0.5487,A2=0.4513,杂合度H=0.50 44、期望杂合度h=0.4953,多态信息量PIC=0.3726,表明T102C多态性具有合适信息,对疾病的关联研究,法医学鉴定有一定的价值。 Abstract:To investigate the distribution about genotype and allele frequencies of T102C polymorphism in the 5-HT2a receptor gene Chinese Han population,the genotypes and alleles of 226 healthy person were examined with Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms(RFLPs)technique.The genotype frequencies are as follows:A1/A2=0.5044,A1/A1=0.2965,A2/A2=0.1991,respectively,and the allele frequencies are as follows:A1=0.5487,A2=0.4513,respectively.The heterozygosity(H)is 0.5044,the expected heterozygosity(h)is 0.4953,and the Polymorphism Information Content(PIC)is 0.3726.Our findings suggest that the T102C polymorphism in 5-HT2a receptor gene may have suitable information to be used for association study or forensic identification.     

白鱀豚的肠

关于白暨豚Lipotes vexillifer的消化道,我们已作过胃的形态学研究并指出它与其它淡水豚的胃的区别(周开亚等,1979),另有两文简略提及肠的外形(姚闻卿等,1974、陈宜瑜等,1975),肠的构造尚未见报道,在解剖和组织学观察中,我们发现白暨豚的肠也有值得注意的特征。 白暨豚的肠取自在长江下游采到的四个个体。肠的长度和管径用福尔马林固定标本测量。组织学材料用Susa液或10％福尔马林固定,苏木精和曙红及Van Gieson法染色。嗜银细胞用改良龙桂开嗜银细胞银浸法显示。     

SOCIAL BEHAVIOR OF OCHOTONA CANSUS: ADAPTATION TO THE ALPINE ENVIRONMENT

Field observations were carried out on the Gansu pikas, Ochotona cansus Lyon, in its natural habitat from July 1987 to November 1988 at Haibei Alpine Meadow Ecosystem Research Station, Qinghai Province,PRC. Communicative behavior, reproductive behavior, spatial and social organization of the Gansu pika were described, and their adaptive significance discussed. The major communicative methods are acoustical and olfactory.At least four types of call (long call,short call, trill and whine)were distinguished. The peculiar habits of vocalization of species in the genus Ochotona appear to be the result of adaptation to boreal and/or high altitude severe climates. Two types of scent marking patterns were observed, and faeces play an important role in olfactory communication. Mother-infant relationships differ from most small rodents, but resemble those of medium-sized lagomorphs. The suckling time is "scheduled", and the frequency seems positively related to litter-size. This mother-infant relationship is thoug     

白鱀豚的胃

关于鲸类胃的复杂分室早有许多详细研究。现代生存的四类淡水豚中,恒河豚Platanista gangetica及拉河豚Pontoporia blainvillei的胃在十九世纪就作过观察(Anderson,1878;Burmeister,1867),近年有详文论述(Yamasaki等,1971,1974),但对白暨豚Lipotes vexillifer及亚河豚Inia geollrensis的胃尚缺了解。白暨豚的胃仅两篇报道(Hinton和Pycraft,1922;陈宜瑜和陈炜.1975)曾提到几句,但未正确阐明其构造。鉴于白暨豚的形态研究对淡水豚类的系统发生及分类均具一定意义,现报道其食管后部和胃的解剖及组织学观察结果。
