西藏色季拉山暗针叶林苔藓多样性及林窗干扰的影响

为了解西藏色季拉山暗针叶林苔藓多样性及林窗干扰的影响,在过去工作积累的基础上研究了色季拉山西坡5块样地内不同林内环境(林窗、林缘和林下)地面、腐木和树附生苔藓生物量特征。结果表明, 地面生单位面积苔藓植物生物量储量最高,平均910.10 g/m²,其次为腐木生(221.90 g/m²),树附生的最低(53.59 g/m²)。林窗地面生苔藓单位面积生物量最高,均值为360.47 g/m²,其次为林下(305.51 g/m²),最小为林缘(244.11 g/m²);林窗、林缘和林下间的地面生苔藓单位面积生物量差异显著(P＜0.05)。沿海拔梯度,林窗苔藓单位面积生物量表现出先增加后减少的趋势。因此,在西藏色季拉山暗针叶林内,林窗对地面生苔藓单位面积生物量有显著影响。     

广西北部湾海岸带、海岛的外来入侵植物

为保护广西北部湾海岸带、海岛的植物多样性和生态系统多样性,通过样方、样带法野外实地调查并结合文献资料,对其外来入侵植物的物种组成、原产地、生活型、入侵途径和危害状况等进行了分析。结果表明,广西北部湾海岸带、海岛共有入侵植物64种,隶属28科55属,其中菊科(Asteraceae)最多(15种)。草本植物最多,有48种(75.00%)。原产地来自美洲的植物最多,有49种。入侵风险等级可划分为5个等级,其中Ⅰ级严重危害的有8种(12.50%)。与广西、广东、海南及华南地区的外来入侵植物在物种组成、生活型和原产地等方面呈现出较强的相似性;北部湾与广西中越边境内陆地区来自美洲的入侵植物都超过60%。因此推测广西外来入侵植物有两条可能的入侵线路：一是从海南登录,二是从中越边境跨入。广西北部湾海岸带、海岛的外来入侵植物总数(相对整个广西)虽较少,但其8种Ⅰ级严重危害植物的防治,仍需引起重视。     

燕山地区白头翁生境伴生植物资源调查与分析

调查与白头翁共存的伴生植物种类、相似性、生活型、分布区类型等,探讨其生态适应性和地理分布规律,针对性地提出白头翁资源保护利用建议,以期为燕山地区白头翁种质资源的保护和利用提供参考。采用访问调查、路线调查和典型样地调查法,对燕山地区白头翁生境伴生植物进行调查与分析。燕山地区从冀东的秦皇岛地区到冀北的承德地区都有白头翁的分布,多生于向阳的山地草坡上,喜光、耐旱、适于阳生性环境。白头翁生境伴生植物共56科128属164种,主要优势科为菊科（Compositae）、豆科（Leguminosae）、禾本科（Gramineae）、蔷薇科（Rosaceae）、唇形科（Labiatae）、百合科（Liliaceae）、毛茛科（Ranunculaceae）、萝藦科（Asclepiadaceae）等,其中乔木共5科5属7种,灌木共22科38属46种,草本植物共35科85属111种。调查的各样地间相似系数普遍较低,说明燕山地区不同地区白头翁生境差别较大,其伴生植物具有多样性的特点。伴生植物属的分布区类型可分为14个,群落具有明显温带性质。燕山地区白头翁生境多样性及伴生植物的多样性,反映出燕山地区白头翁生态适应多样性特点,有利于其引种栽培。     

Physiology of lipase formation inPenicillium candidum

Penicillium candidum grew and produced lipase in a culture medium supplemented with 0.2% olive oil. Significant enzyme production required the presence of olive, oil and was prevented by cycloheximide. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of filtrates from olive oil fermentations gave a single band of lipase activity (MW 80 KDa). Among the olive oil components only oleate allowed significant lipase production. Other carboxylic and saturated fatty acids containing similar or lower numbers of carbon atoms, did not cause derepression of lipase formation.     

大肠杆菌rpoH基因的克隆,表达及其产物的纯化

本文用ＰＣＲ方法获得大肠杆菌热休克蛋白转录因子σ３２的编码基因ｒｐｏＨ,并克隆在含有ｔａｃ启动子的表达载体ｐＵＨＥ中,经ＩＰＴＧ诱导,在大肠杆菌中表达了Ｃ端融合有６个寡聚组氨酸的σ３２。表达产物经金属螯合层析一步纯化,达到ＳＤＳ－ＰＡＧＥ银染一条带纯度,氨基酸组成分析及Ｎ端序列分析结果与文献报道一致。３５Ｓ细胞内参入实验表明：即使在较低的温度下,表达产物σ３２（Ｈｉｓ）６也能导致热休克蛋白如ＧｒｏＥｌ、ＤｎａＫ、Ｈｔｐ的大量合成．

紫貂冬季食性的分析

１９９１至１９９８年的三个冬季,在大兴安岭地区共收集紫貂粪样２２３个．食性分析结果表明,紫貂冬季食物主要为小型哺乳类（５４．１％）、植物浆果和种子（３２．４％）、鸟类（１２．５％）和昆虫（１．０％）．在紫貂选择的７种小型哺乳类中,主要以棕背（２７．３％）和红背（１９．２％）为食,其次为雪兔和冬眠的花鼠。对于鸟类,紫貂主要捕食花尾榛鸡（８．１％）,松鸦（０．７％）,大山雀（０．５％）和黑啄本鸟等。有２．２％的粪样中含有小型鸟的卵壳、紫貂的植物性食物主要为越桔浆果（２０．８％）和偃松种籽（８．８％）。昆虫中只有蚂蚁在紫貂食性中出现（１．０％）．紫貂冬季食物构成没有年度间差异（Ｐ＞０．０５）。通过捕食迹,我们还发现紫貂捕食黑嘴松鸡。虽然红背的捕获率（７９．４％）高于棕背（２．９％）,但食性分析结果却相反,说明紫貂更喜欢捕捉身体较大的鼠类。有较强气味的中虽有一定的数量,但在紫貂冬季食物中未出现过。     

Relationships between carbon and hydrogen isotope ratios and nitrogen levels in leaves ofClusia species and two other Clusiaceae genera at various sites and different altitudes in Venezuela

Samples of the Clusiaceae generaClusia, Oedematopus andDystovomita were collected at various sites and different altitudes in northern and south-western Venezuela. Analyses of stable isotopes of carbon and hydrogen and of leaf-nitrogen levels were performed on the dried samples. Correlations among these variables, i.e. carbon isotope discrimination (), hydrogen isotope ratio (D) and N-levels, and with altitude were assessed. In the samples, where values of above 15 indicate predominant performance of C₃ photosynthesis, there were slight tendencies of increasing , D and N-levels with increasing altitude and of increasing with increasing N. Although these correlations taken separately were not statistically significant, they support each other and indicate increasing transpiration and increased leaf-nutrient supply at increasing altitude. Performance of crassulacean acid metabolism (CAM) in species ofClusia appears to be restricted to altitudes below 1500 m a.s.l. There was a significant negative correlation of with altitude in the samples, where values of below 10 indicated predominant performance of CAM. This suggests that phases II and IV of CAM are progressively suppressed towards the upper altitudinal limit of CAM inClusia in northern Venezuela. It is concluded that among the large number of environmental factors and combinations thereof, which determine the expression of CAM inClusia and trigger C₃-CAM transitions in C₃/CAM intermediate species, low availability of water is the most important.     

Sugar-Binding Activity of Pea Lectin Expressed in White Clover Hairy Roots

Introduction of the pea (Pisum sativum L.) lectin (PSL) gene into white clover (Trifolium repens L.) hairy roots facilitates nodulation by the nitrogen-fixing bacterium Rhizobium leguminosarum biovar viciae, which normally nodulates pea and not white clover (C.L. Diaz, L.S. Melchers, P.J.J. Hooykaas, B.J.J. Lugtenberg, and J.W. Kijne [1989] Nature 338: 579-581). Here, we show that PSL is functionally expressed in transgenic white clover hairy roots transformed with the PSL gene. PSL could be isolated from these roots by affinity chromatography. Immunoanalysis of PSL showed the presence of polypeptides corresponding to the PSL precursor and its [beta] subunits. In addition, we developed a highly sensitive localization technique based on specific binding of a glycan moiety of rat IgE to PSL. Similar to the situation in pea roots, PSL appeared to be localized on the external cell surface of elongated epidermal cells and on the tips of emerging and growing root hairs of transgenic white clover hairy roots. PSL was not observed on normal white clover roots and on hairy roots without the PSL gene. These results show that (a) in transgenic white clover hairy roots, PSL is correctly processed and targeted to root cells susceptible to rhizobial infection, and (b) like in pea roots, PSL is surface bound with at least one of its two sugar-binding sites available for (rhizobial) ligands.
