Concentric electrodes have been fabricated from 304 stainless steel in which a small anode (0.031 cm2) and large cathode (4.87 cm2) are induced by the application of a current density of 11A cm–2 at the anode. It has previously been shown that reproducible pitting and maintenance of a galvanic current occurs only in the presence of a consortium of bacteria containing sulphate-reducing bacteria (SRB). Actively corroding systems that had maintained a galvanic current for at least 24 h after the applied current was removed were treated with inhibitors of the SRB. The only inhibitor tested which had any marked effect on the galvanic current was sodium molybdate which is a known inhibitor of corrosion as well as SRB. 相似文献

The montane forests of northern Mozambique’s isolated massifs are inhabited by numerous range-restricted and threatened bird species, but until recently were extremely little-known. We report on a first avifaunal survey of the isolated montane habitats of Mt Mecula (1 442 m), Niassa National Reserve, notable as the only currently protected montane area in northern Mozambique. Mount Mecula’s moist forest is small (approximately 136 ha in total) and patchy, and although known botanically to have some montane affinities, was found to support an avifauna more typical of riparian forests of medium to low altitude. The only montane forest species recorded was Lemon Dove Aplopelia larvata. Other montane elements included Vincent’s Bunting Emberiza (capensis) vincenti, one of six species recorded new to the Niassa National Reserve list. Overall, it appears that despite its intermediate location, Mt Mecula does not represent a biogeographical ‘stepping stone’ for montane forest bird species. This probably owes to its remoteness from the Eastern Arc Mountains of Tanzania to the north and the massifs of other parts of northern Mozambique, to the south and west. 相似文献

Fishes represent the stem vertebrate condition and have maintained several
gene arrangements common to mammalian genomes throughout the 450 Myr of
divergence from a common ancestor. One such syntenic arrangement includes
the GPI-PEPD enzyme association on Xiphophorus linkage group IV and human
chromosome 19. Previously we assigned the Xiphophorus homologue of the
human ERCC2 gene to linkage group U5 in tight association with the CKM
locus. CKM is also tightly linked to the ERCC2 locus on human chromosome
19, leading to speculation that human chromosome 19 may have arisen by
fusion of two ancestral linkage groups which have been maintained in
fishes. To investigate this hypothesis further, we isolated and sequenced
Xiphophorus fish genomic regions exhibiting considerable sequence
similarity to the human DNA ligase 1 amino acid sequence. Comparison of the
fish DNA ligase sequence with those of other species suggests several modes
of amino acid conservation in this gene. A 2.2-kb restriction fragment
containing part of an X. maculatus DNA ligase 1 exon was used in backcross
hybrid mapping with 12 enzyme or RFLP loci. Significant linkage was
observed between the nucleoside phosphorylase (NP2) and the DNA ligase
(LIG1) loci on Xiphophorus linkage group VI. This assignment suggests that
the association of four DNA repair-related genes on human chromosome 19 may
be the result of chance chromosomal rearrangements.

Abstract Two chronosequences of unsaturated, buried loess sediments, ranging in age from <10,000 years to >1 million years, were investigated to reconstruct patterns of microbial ecological succession that have occurred since sediment burial. The relative importance of microbial transport and survival to succession was inferred from sediment ages, porewater ages, patterns of abundance (measured by direct counts, counts of culturable cells, and total phospholipid fatty acids), activities (measured by radiotracer and enzyme assays), and community composition (measured by phospholipid fatty acid patterns and Biolog substrate usage). Core samples were collected at two sites 40 km apart in the Palouse region of eastern Washington State, near the towns of Washtucna and Winona. The Washtucna site was flooded multiple times during the Pleistocene by glacial outburst floods; the Winona site elevation is above flood stage. Sediments at the Washtucna site were collected from near surface to 14.9 m depth, where the sediment age was approximately 250 ka and the porewater age was 3700 years; sample intervals at the Winona site ranged from near surface to 38 m (sediment age: approximately 1 Ma; porewater age: 1200 years). Microbial abundance and activities declined with depth at both sites; however, even the deepest, oldest sediments showed evidence of viable microorganisms. Same-age sediments had equal quantities of microorganisms, but different community types. Differences in community makeup between the two sites can be attributed to differences in groundwater recharge and paleoflooding. Estimates of the microbial community age can be constrained by porewater and sediment ages. In the shallower sediments (<9 m at Washtucna, <12 m at Winona), the microbial communities are likely similar in age to the groundwater; thus, microbial succession has been influenced by recent transport of microorganisms from the surface. In the deeper sediments, the populations may be considerably older than the porewater ages, since microbial transport is severely restricted in unsaturated sediments. This is particularly true at the Winona site, which was never flooded. 相似文献
