西双版纳人工林林窗光照剖线分布特征

以林窗北缘为中心,研究了西双版纳地区橡胶林林窗及周边Ｎ－Ｓ样带上光照水平梯度分布。结果表明：林窗的发生导致光照明显增加,从林内到林窗中央,光强呈明显增大趋势,上午雾末消退时,相对光照强度水平梯度变化曲线峰值出现于林窗中央,午后雾消退后,林窗边缘为相对光强梯度变化最甚的地段,峰值由林窗中央向林窗北缘移进。林窗边缘,林窗中央及林内光照强度日变化曲线均为不对称的单峰型,但峰值出现和振幅不同。在太阳高度角     

性激素对大鼠诱发肝癌中胎盘型谷胱甘肽S—转移酶（GST—P）表达的影响

Using Solt-Farber method for the induction of rat hepatocarcinoma, the changes of the activity of glutathione S-transferase (GST) and the content of placenta form GST (GST-P) were studied during hepatocarcinogenesis, then the effects of sex hormones on the hepatic expression of GST-P were observed using immunohistochemical method. The results showed that both GST activity and GST-P content began to increase at the 3rd week, and reached the highest level at the 5th week (Table 1). Therefore, the 5th week was selected for the study of GST-P expression in the livers of rats treated with different protocol (Fig. 1). It was found that GST-P was highly expressed in the livers of sham-castrated male rats after chemically induced hepatocarcinoma (PLATE I, Fig. 1A, Table 2). When estradiol was administrated to these rats, both the number and area of GST-P positive(+) foci decreased significantly (PLATE I, Fig. 1B, Table 2). While testosterone was administrated instead of estradiol, the decrease of the area but slight increase of the number of GST-P positive foci were found (PLATE I, Fig. 1C, Table 2). After orchiectomy, the areas of GST-P (+) foci in carcinogen treated liver of male rats were smaller than those in rats with sham-orchiectomy and same carcinogen treatment (PLATE I, Fig. 2A, B, Table 3). When the orchiectomized male rats were administrated with estradiol, the areas of GST-P (+) foci decreased further (PLATE I, Fig. 2C, Table 3). In contrast, after ovariectomy of the female rats, the areas of GST-P (+) foci in carcinogen treated livers were slightly increased as compared with those in the rats with sham-ovariectomy and same carcinogen treatment (PLATE I, Fig. 2D, E, Table 3). While the ovariectomized female rats were administrated with testosterone, the areas of GST-P (+) foci increased further (PLATE I, Fig. 2F, Table 3). Regardless of whether castrations were done or not, GST-P expression in livers of male rats induced hepatocarcinoma was higher than in livers of female rats (PLATE I, Fig. 2A, B, D, E, Table 3). These results indicated that estrogen may inhibit but androgen may promote the GST-P expression in the rat liver during hepatocarcinogenesis. This may be related to the higher incidence of liver carcinoma in male than in female.     

不同施肥水平对益母草生长的影响

对益母草〔Ｌｅｏｎｕｒｕｓａｒｔｅｍｉｓｉａ（Ｌｏｕｒ．）Ｓ．Ｙ．Ｈｕ〕作不同肥料水平的田间处理,考评单株鲜重、地上部分鲜重、分蘖数和长叶速度等生物学特性。Ｌ４（２３）试验结果表明：（１）磷肥对益母草的单株鲜重、地上部分鲜重和分蘖数的影响起主导作用,氮肥次之,钾肥影响最弱;（２）对益母草的长叶速度,磷肥起决定性作用,氮肥、钾肥的影响不明显;（３）氮肥能促进叶片中叶绿素的积累。根据这些结果对益母草的需肥特性进行了讨论。

抗砷细菌arsH基因多样性分析

目的:研究含arsH基因抗砷微生物的多样性.方法:从NCBI数据库中收集95条arsH基因序列,通过Clustal W 1.83,Mega 3.0、DOTUR软件分别对95条序列进行多序列比对、构建系统发育树、稀释曲线等分析.结果:这些包含arsH基因的菌株分别归属于α-变形杆茵纲(约40%),γ-变形杆茵纲(35%),β-变形杆茵纲(22%),以及蓝细茵(3%).在涉及的14个科当中,Rhizo-biales所占比例最高(29%);Burkholderiales:次之(22%);Pseudomonadales和Enterobaeteriales占较少的比例,分别为18%和11%.针对数据库已有数据分析显示,含有arsH基因的微生物约89%分布在陆地,6%分布在海洋,还有5%在陆地海洋均有分布.陆地中占总比例的24%分布于土壤中;21%分布于矿山、地下水、气田、油田、受污染环境、矿坑水、淡水等环境中;约1%为植物共生菌,26%为病原微生物.结论:该基因在不同的物种之间存在水平基因转移,目前对于含arsH基因的抗砷微生物的筛选和分离工作还远远不够.

微囊藻毒素在滇池鱼体内的积累水平及分布特征

为了解富营养化水体中鱼体内微囊藻毒素(MC)的积累水平及其分布特征,2003年4月和9月份两次在滇池试验区采集了鲢、鳙和草鱼等鱼种,用ELISA方法对鱼体中肝、肾、空肠、胆、肌肉等不同组织中MC的含量进行了检测。结果表明,MC在所有样品中均能检测到,且主要分布在鱼体的肝肾脏和消化道等器官,而肌肉和非消化道器官中毒素含量相对较低。不同鱼种不同组织对MC的富集程度也明显不同,鲢鳙中肝脏和肾脏这两个主要的靶器官对MC的蓄积能力就远高于草鱼。同时,不同季节MC在鱼体内的积累水平也明显不同,4月份鱼样中MC的含量普遍低于9月份鱼样中MC的含量。最后按照WHO生活饮用水安全标准的建议进行推算,所有鱼肉中的MC均没有超过其推荐的人体每日可允许摄入量(≤0.04μg/kg人体重),初步推断鱼肉中MC暂时还未危及到人体健康,但仍具有潜在的风险性。     

不同蛋白质水平的饵料对黄喉拟水龟生长影响的研究

依据单因子梯度设计原理,采用进口鱼粉、豆粕为主要蛋白源制成蛋白质含量分别为50.2%、47.3%、44.3%和41.4%共4种试验饵料,研究不同蛋白质水平饵料对黄喉拟水龟生长的影响.结果 表明,经过120 d对80只黄喉拟水龟幼龟的饲养,当饵料的蛋白质含量为47.3%时,黄喉拟水龟的生长速度最快,均显著高于其他3个组(P<0.05);蛋白质效率最高,极显著高于50.2%组(P<0.01),也分别显著高于44.3%组和41.4%组(P<0.05);耗料增重比最低,分别极显著低于44.3%组和50.2%组(P<0.01),也显著低于41.4%组(P<0.05).但不同蛋白质水平的饵料对黄喉拟水龟龟体蛋白质含量没有明显的影响(P>0.05).
