松嫩平原农业区土壤理化性质与真菌代谢产物——球囊霉素相关土壤蛋白的关系

对不同土壤深度的真菌特征代谢产物球囊霉素相关土壤蛋白(glomalin-related soil protein,GRSP)与土壤理化性质相关关系的研究,有助于揭示土壤真菌在不同土壤深度对养分的调节作用。本研究在松嫩平原农田5个土层(0~100 cm)采集360个土样,分析了易提取球囊霉素相关土壤蛋白(EE-GRSP)、总提取球囊霉素相关土壤蛋白(T-GRSP)含量和11个土壤理化性质指标及其相关关系。结果表明:表层EE-GRSP和T-GRSP平均含量为0.74和6.0 mg·g-1,随土层加深均呈显著下降趋势;深层土壤养分储量较大,有机碳、全氮、全磷、全钾、碱解氮、速效磷和速效钾储量在深层(40~100 cm)占总储量的41.2%~62.8%;土壤p H、容重、含水量和电导率也表现了明显的垂直变化规律;各理化性质在不同土层与GRSP的相关关系不同,有机碳在全部深度与GRSP均有显著的相关关系,而p H与GRSP均在20~100 cm深度有极显著的相关性(P0.01),且与EE-GRSP、T-GRSP显著相关的理化性质指标分别在60~80、20~60 cm最多,在表层最少;GRSP在深层土壤与各指标的相关性与表层不同,可能会影响GRSP对不同土壤深度养分的调节功能;鉴于深层土壤中GRSP与养分显著相关,本研究提出,种植与土壤真菌具有共生关系的深根性植物是对富集养分的深层土壤进行生物修复的有效方法。     

青海祁连瑞香狼毒的光谱差异特征提取

瑞香狼毒是分布在青海省高寒草甸的主要毒害草之一,近年来其迅速蔓延对当地畜牧业危害严重并使草地生态系统日趋退化.在海北州祁连县选取狼毒分布的典型退化草甸,采用2012—2014年狼毒盛花期获取的实测光谱数据,分析狼毒与牧草的光谱差异性.结果表明： 在350~900 nm的可见光 近红外波段,狼毒顶花的光谱反射特征明显异于狼毒叶片和同期牧草等绿色背景,顶花与绿色背景的光谱反射率差异主要体现在红谷和蓝谷.随着盖度的增加,狼毒群落光谱反射率整体升高,在近红外反射峰处狼毒群落与牧草群落光谱反射率具有最大差值,且不同盖度狼毒群落之间的差异性最明显.顶花与绿色背景以及狼毒群落与牧草群落的一阶导数光谱差异均体现在黄边幅值和蓝边幅值.狼毒群落盖度与光谱特征参量的线性回归分析表明,红谷与狼毒群落盖度的相关性最好(R²=0.94),反演狼毒群落盖度的精度最高.盛花期区分狼毒与牧草的主要光谱特征参量为红谷、蓝谷与近红外反射峰,其对应的红、蓝及近红外波段的组合可用于构建狼毒提取的敏感指数.     

基于RS/GIS公路路域水土流失动态变化的研究——以榆靖高速公路为例

基于RS数据源,利用ERDAS和ArcGIS软件技术,对榆靖高速公路两侧300m范围水土流失动态变化开展研究。通过遥感图像数字处理方法,提取对水土流失起主导作用的植被覆盖度、土地利用类型、沟谷密度等因子;在矢量化等高线数据的基础上生成数字高程模型(DEM),提取地形坡度因子,将这4个因子在GIS中进行空间叠加分析。参照《土壤侵蚀分级标准》,生成研究区不同时段水土流失强度等级图,利用GIS属性统计功能对公路沿线各等级水土流失区面积进行统计,参照研究区不同侵蚀类型的土壤侵蚀模数,得出1996年和2006年公路沿线各流失区的水土流失量,并对公路沿线水土流失动态变化进行分析。结果表明：榆靖高速公路修建后沿线600m范围水土流失总量减少19.26万t/a,水土流失呈减弱趋势。公路施工期导致水土流失增强的各种因素随着营运期固化路面的形成而逐渐消失,防沙固沙和生态恢复等措施有效改善了公路路域生态环境,对公路沿线水土流失防治起到了积极作用。

Protein family clustering for structural genomics

A major goal of structural genomics is the provision of a structural template for a large fraction of protein domains. The magnitude of this task depends on the number and nature of protein sequence families. With a large number of bacterial genomes now fully sequenced, it is possible to obtain improved estimates of the number and diversity of families in that kingdom. We have used an automated clustering procedure to group all sequences in a set of genomes into protein families. Bench-marking shows the clustering method is sensitive at detecting remote family members, and has a low level of false positives. This comprehensive protein family set has been used to address the following questions. (1) What is the structure coverage for currently known families? (2) How will the number of known apparent families grow as more genomes are sequenced? (3) What is a practical strategy for maximizing structure coverage in future? Our study indicates that approximately 20% of known families with three or more members currently have a representative structure. The study indicates also that the number of apparent protein families will be considerably larger than previously thought: We estimate that, by the criteria of this work, there will be about 250,000 protein families when 1000 microbial genomes have been sequenced. However, the vast majority of these families will be small, and it will be possible to obtain structural templates for 70-80% of protein domains with an achievable number of representative structures, by systematically sampling the larger families.     

The comparison of the confidence regions in phylogeny

In this paper, several different procedures for constructing confidence regions for the true evolutionary tree are evaluated both in terms of coverage and size without considering model misspecification. The regions are constructed on the basis of tests of hypothesis using six existing tests: Shimodaira Hasegawa (SH), SOWH, star form of SOWH (SSOWH), approximately unbiased (AU), likelihood weight (LW), generalized least squares, plus two new tests proposed in this paper: single distribution nonparametric bootstrap (SDNB) and single distribution parametric bootstrap (SDPB). The procedures are evaluated on simulated trees both with small and large number of taxa. Overall, the SH, SSOWH, AU, and LW tests led to regions with higher coverage than the nominal level at the price of including large numbers of trees. Under the specified model, the SOWH test gives accurate coverage and relatively small regions. The SDNB and SDPB tests led to the small regions with occasional undercoverage. These two procedures have a substantial computational advantage over the SOWH test. Finally, the cutoff levels for the SDNB test are shown to be more variable than those for the SDPB test.

利用1982-1999年内蒙古地区NOAA/AVHRR的NDVI数字遥感影像,对内蒙古温带草原区植被盖度进行了反演,探讨了近20a来温带草原植被盖度的变化情况,并对植被盖度与不同组合方式的降水及气温数据进行了相关分析,探讨了植被盖度与气象因子的关系。结果表明:①近20a来温带草原植被盖度呈上升趋势,占总面积72%的草原植被盖度发生了增长,3种不同草原类型中典型草原盖度上升趋势最为明显;②温带草原生长季平均盖度、逐月盖度与降水成正相关关系,与气温呈负相关关系,其中降水对盖度的影响存在着时滞及累积效应;③3种草原类型植被盖度对气象因子的敏感性不同,荒漠草原植被盖度与气温和降水相关性最强,其次为典型草原与草甸草原。     

Compensatory growth of Phanerochaete velutina mycelial systems grazed by Folsomia candida (Collembola)

Phanerochaete velutina is a major agent of wood decomposition in temperate forests. It grows out of woody resources in search of other resources and is then vulnerable to grazing by invertebrates. The aim of this study was to determine how continuous grazing and grazing for only 2 days by different densities of collembola, Folsomia candida, affect mycelial development (radial extension, hyphal coverage and fractal dimension) of P. velutina growing across non-sterile soil. High density (80 collembola) continuous grazing resulted in different mycelial foraging patterns compared to controls and lower density (20 and 40 collembola) continuous grazing: radial extension rate was reduced from 8.4 mm day(-1) (control) to 6.9 mm day(-1) (80 collembola), hyphal coverage was reduced to 81% of controls and mass fractal dimension increased from 1.68 (control) to 1.72 (80 collembola). There was evidence of over-compensatory growth: when high density grazing ceased the new growth was considerably greater (38%) than in controls. Grazing also resulted in growth stimulation: at low density continuous grazing (20 collembola) hyphal coverage was 15.6% greater than in controls. The ecological implications of compensatory and stimulatory growth in fungal-invertebrate interactions are considered.
