kar交配法转移YACs至新宿主的研究

利用改进的kar交配法,将一个含有340kb人基因组DNA的YAC片段的供体酵母菌株YAC23与受体菌株YLB504进行交配,以选择平板对所形成的候选YAC导入菌进行筛选。经PCR分析,候选YAC导入菌在404bp处有一个扩增带,即具有受体菌株的交配型(MAT α)。进一步用脉冲电泳进行核型鉴定,证实YACs己成功地进入受体,实现了YACs从一个宿主到另一个宿主之间的转移。     

单甲脒农药对模型池塘生态系统群落结构的影响

在３ｍ×１ｍ×１ｍ（Ｖ＝３ｍ３）含有底泥的模型池塘生态系统中研究单脒农药对水生生物群落结构的影晌。规定实验浓度力０、１．５、３．０、６．０和１２．０ｍｇ／Ｌ,每１５ｄ加入１次２５％单甲脒农药水剂,连续加入４次,实验进行２个多月。在实验浓度范围内,童甲脒农药对水生生物群落产生不同程度的影响。浮游生物比较敏感：加药后头几天内,种类、数量及多样性指数下降,浓度越大,影响越明显;大约１周以后,各处理组浮游生物群落逐步得到恢复,实验后期其数量甚至可超过对照水平,但群落结构发生改变,敏感种类少或消失,耐污种类增加,生物多样性降低。底栖生物比较耐污：处理槽大型水生植物的叶绿素含量有所减少,但其种类和生物量未见明显差异;底栖动物种类、数量也未见明显变化。微生物最耐污,在处理槽水层及沉积物中好氧异养菌数量有所增加,沉积物中厌气菌数量也有增加的趋势。青鱼对单甲脒农药较敏感,在１．５ｍｇ／Ｌ以下浓度尚能正常存活和繁殖。单甲脒农药水剂明显增加水体氮、磷含量,尤其磷酸盐含量高,使水体氮、磷比例失调,可能导致水体富营养化。根据综合指标分析,在规定单甲脒盆酸盐浓度＜１．５ｍｇ／Ｌ的实验条件下,水生生物群落结构未见明显改变．     

深圳福田红树林区底栖大型动物群落的空间分带及灌污的可能影响

本文自１９９１年４月至１９９３年１月对深圳福田红树林中底栖大型动物的空间分带及灌污的可能影响进行了研究。结果表明,该红树林湿地中主要出现的底栖动物为拟沼螺科,黑螺科,汇螺科,沙蟹科,方蟹科和弹涂鱼科种类。红树区内底栖动物从高潮位到低潮位可分为３个群落分布带：亮泽拟沼螺带;拟黑螺－褶痕相手蟹带;弧边招潮－印尼拟蟹守螺－刻纹拟沼螺带。群落的分带可能主要由潮位线,食物适应性及底质结构因素决定。林前泥滩底栖动物种类多样性最大,生物量最高。林内动物群落则表现出低种类多样性,高种群个体数的特点。群落总栖息密度的变化基本上由软体动物所主导。生活污水排灌对红树林中底栖大型动物的影响不明显,仅在排污口端引起少数污水动物种类的出现及群落总生物量轻微的升高。

化学修饰具有底物谷胱甘肽（ＧＳＨ）结合部位的单克隆抗体（４Ａ４）,使其结合部位上的丝氨酸（Ｓｅｒ）转变成谷胱甘肽过氧化物酶（ＧＰＸ）的催化基团硒代半胱氨酸（Ｓｅ－Ｃｙｓ）,因而产生高活力的含硒抗体酶（Ｓｅ－ａｂｚｙｍｅ）．突变的４Ａ４（ｍ４Ａ４）的ＧＰＸ活力达到了天然酶活力的１９％,并对ｍ４Ａ４的酶学性质和动力学性质进行了研究;硒代谷胱甘肽（ＧＳｅＨ）连到４Ａ４结合部位,其ＧＰＸ活力由３．８６Ｕ／μｍｏｌ提高到５９８．９Ｕ／μｍｏｌ用黄嘌呤氧化酶／次黄嘌呤为中心的心肌线粒体自由基损伤模型证明Ｓｅ－ａｂｚｙｍｅ（ｍ４Ａ４）可减轻活性氧对线粒体的损伤。     

Intraspecific competition in immature Amblyseius fallacis,Amblyseius andersoni,Typhlodromus occidentalis and Typhlodromus pyri (Acari: Phytoseiidae)

Intraspecific competition in immature Amblyseius fallacis, Amblyseius andersoni, Typhlodromus occidentalis and Typhlodromus pyri was examined in the laboratory using small cages at five different predator densities (two, four, eight, 16 and 32) in the absence and presence of prey 100 eggs of two-spotted spider mite, Tetranychus urticae (Koch), at 25 ± 1°C, 80% RH and 16L:8D photoperiod. In the absence of spider mite prey, some individuals of immature phytoseiids showed increased development and surival with increasing predator densities up to certain limits, but none survived to the adult stage, except for a single male each of A. andersoni and A. fallacis who completed development by cannibalizing on conspecifics at a density of 32 predators per cage. In the absence of spider mite prey, the mean immature survival time was independent of the initial predator density, but the variance of survival time increased with predator density. In the presence of prey, the proportion of immatures surviving to adulthood generally decreased with initial predator density and dropped sharply to almost none at the predator density of 32 for A. fallacis, eight for A. andersoni, 16 for T. occidentalis and four for T. pyri. The number of prey consumed per predator during the first day generally decreased with predator density in all four species, as prey available per predator decreased and the competition for food increased with predator density. Our data indicate that scramble competition is operating in these four species. Although cannibalism was occasionally observed, especially after the exhaustion of prey and in the generalist predators such as A. andersoni, the immatures of these phytoseiids were less influenced by the interference of conspecifics than by the increasing difficulty of finding food at high predator densities. The implications of this study for understanding phytoseiid population dynamics and their use in biological control are discussed.
