退耕还湖后湿地土壤对磷的吸附解吸特性

以安徽菜子湖区不同退耕年限(3、5、9和11年)湿地为研究对象,以相邻油菜地和原始湿地为对照(共6个样地),研究退耕还湖后湿地土壤对磷的吸附解吸特性变化.结果表明: 退耕湿地土壤对磷的等温吸附曲线与Langmuir和Freundlich吸附方程拟合程度均达极显著水平(P<0.01);6个样地土壤对磷的最大吸附量(X_m)、吸附常数(K)和最大缓冲容量(MBC)范围分别为478～1074 mg·kg^-1、0.14～0.61和68.6～661.5 mg·kg^-1,且退耕湿地的这些参数均随着退耕年限的延长而升高,但未达到原始湿地水平;6个样地土壤磷的平均解吸率为6.2%～14.6%,且退耕湿地土壤磷解吸率随着退耕年限的延长呈先增高后降低的趋势,但均显著高于原始湿地.表明随着退耕年限的增加,湿地土壤对外源磷的固持能力不断增强,而土壤有机质和粘粒含量是影响湿地土壤对外源磷固持能力的重要因子.     

不同红小豆品种幼苗对干旱胁迫的生理响应

为筛选红小豆（Phaseolus angularis Linn.）幼苗抗旱性鉴定指标,采用盆栽控水方法,对红小豆3个品种‘保红947’、‘东北大红袍’、‘晋小豆5号’进行了苗期形态特征及根系生理生化特性的研究。结果表明：干旱胁迫抑制了红小豆3个品种植株的生长;重度干旱胁迫下,3个品种光系统Ⅱ（PSⅡ）的潜在活性（可变荧光/初始荧光,Fv/Fo）、最大光化学效率（可变荧光/最大荧光产量,Fv/Fm）、株高、叶面积、茎粗、根鲜重、根系活力、可溶性蛋白质含量等指标均随干旱胁迫强度的增加呈明显下降趋势,根冠比、根系脯氨酸（Pro）含量、可溶性糖含量、SOD活性、POD活性、MDA含量等指标随着干旱胁迫强度的增加呈明显上升趋势。综合各项生理指标,‘东北大红袍’在干旱胁迫下能保持相对较优的生理状态,抗旱性最强。通过主成分分析表明,株高、叶面积、茎粗、主根长、根鲜重、最大光化学效率、根系活力、可溶性糖含量、可溶性蛋白质含量、SOD活性、MDA含量等生理生化特性可作为鉴定红小豆苗期抗旱性的指标。     

EDDS处理对硒胁迫下彩叶草根系FTIR—ATR、SEM—EDXS特征及生理特性的影响

为了解乙二胺二琥珀酸（EDDS）诱导植物耐受硒（Se）胁迫的生理机制, 以彩叶草（Coleus blumei）为材料,采用营养液培养的方法、借助傅里叶变换-衰减全反射红外光谱（FTIR-ATR）和扫描电子显微镜-X-射线能量色散谱（SEM-EDXS）分析方法及生理指标的变化,研究1.0 mg/L Se胁迫条件下添加0、0.5、1.0、1.5、2.5、5.0 mmol/L EDDS 对彩叶草根系化学成分变化的影响。利用FTIR-ATR图谱分析发现,随着EDDS处理浓度的提高,彩叶草根系透射峰所对应峰形基本不变,而参与Se吸附的基团如羟基、酰胺基和指纹区等的透射峰发生了不同程度的位移。FTIR-ATR的特征峰与彩叶草根系响应Se胁迫的各生理指标变化趋势基本一致,且FTIR-ATR比传统的生理指标测定更敏感、便捷。SEM-EDXS扫描还发现随着EDDS处理浓度的升高,根系中K、Mg、Fe、Si 等元素的含量升高,而营养元素Ca含量降低。该研究结果可为深入了解EDDS处理下彩叶草对Se胁迫的响应机理提供科学依据。     

整治区植烟土壤养分空间变异及肥力适宜性等级评价

采用地理信息系统(GIS)技术和地统计学方法,研究了湖北省恩施市“清江源”现代烟草农业科技园区、恩施城郊和利川柏杨基地单元新整治区域的土壤属性和速效养分空间变异特征,并采用模糊数学法对其土壤肥力适宜性指数(SFI)进行评价.结果表明: 土地整治对土壤速效磷含量的变异和空间分布的影响较大,这种影响程度可能与地形地貌特征和整治程度有关;土地整治对土壤pH值的影响较小,但是柏杨土壤酸化严重(pH<5.5).77.6%的城郊土壤具有较低的SFI,而柏杨和清江源分别仅有17.1%和31.4%的土壤具有较低的SFI.柏杨需要重点解决土壤酸化问题,城郊需要重点解决整个区域土壤培肥和肥力均衡化问题,而清江源则需解决SFI较低区域的培肥问题.     

Characterization of the most abundant Lactobacillus species in chicken gastrointestinal tract and potential use as probiotics for genetic engineering

The count and diffusion of Lactobacilli species in the differ ent gastrointestinal tract （GI） regions of broilers were investigated by quantitative realtime polymerase chain reaction, and the probiotic characteristics of six L. reuteri species isolated from broilers＇ GI tract were also investi gated to obtain the potential target for genetic engineering. Lactobacilli had the highest diversity in the crop and the lowest one in the cecum. Compared with the lower GI tract, more LactobaciUi were found in the upper GI tract. Lactobacillus reuteri, johnsonii, L. acidophilus, L. crispatus, L. salivarius, and L. aviarius were the predominant Lactobacillus species and present throughout the GI tract of chickens. Lactobacillus reuteri was the most abundant Lactobacillus species. Lactobacillus reuteri XC1 had good probiotic characteristics that would be a potential and desirable target for genetic engineering.     

柑桔大实蝇产卵器的结构及形态观察

柑桔大实蝇Bactrocera minax (Enderlein)是柑桔果树上的重要害虫,近年来危害日趋严重,对我国柑桔生产造成了严重影响。本文在室内及野外观察了柑桔大实蝇雌虫产卵器的结构及外部形态特征。结果表明：产卵器分为产卵器基节、翻转膜、产卵管三部分,其长度依次为：4.63±0.38 mm、5.24±0.28 mm、4.39±0.32 mm,产卵器拉伸全长为14.24±0.27 mm。产卵器有3种状态：正常状态、产卵前准备状态、产卵状态。产卵前准备状态表现为产卵器完全伸长,可弯曲、反复旋转并回折成γ形。在雌虫产卵状态时,产卵器基节留在果实外,产卵管刺穿透果皮后在果皮下产卵。     

Evaluation of protein supplementation for growing cattle fed grass silage-based diets: a meta-analysis

The objective of this meta-analysis was to develop empirical equations predicting growth responses of growing cattle to protein intake. Overall, the data set comprised 199 diets in 80 studies. The diets were mainly based on grass silage or grass silage partly or completely replaced by whole-crop silages or straw. The concentrate feeds consisted of cereal grains, fibrous by-products and protein supplements. The analyses were conducted both comprehensively for all studies and also separately for studies in which soybean meal (SBM; n=71 diets/28 studies), fish meal (FM; 27/12) and rapeseed meal (RSM; 74/35) were used as a protein supplement. Increasing dietary CP concentration increased (P<0.01) BW gain (BWG), but the responses were quantitatively small (1.4 g per 1 g/kg dry matter (DM) increase in dietary CP concentration). The BWG responses were not different for bulls v. steers and heifers (1.4 v. 1.3 g per 1 g/kg DM increase in dietary CP concentration) and for dairy v. beef breeds (1.2 v. 1.7 g per 1 g/kg, respectively). The effect of increased CP concentration declined (P<0.01) with increasing mean BW of the animals and with improved BWG of the control animals (the lowest CP diet in each study). The BWG responses to protein supplementation were not related to the CP concentration in the control diet. The BWG responses increased (P<0.05) with increased ammonia N concentration in silage N and declined marginally (P>0.10) with increasing proportion of concentrate in the diet. All protein supplements had a significant effect on BWG, but the effects were greater for RSM (P<0.01) and FM (P<0.05) than for SBM. Increasing dietary CP concentration improved (P<0.01) feed efficiency when expressed as BWG/kg DM intake, but decreased markedly when expressed as BWG/kg CP intake. Assuming CP concentration of 170 g/kg BW marginal efficiency of the utilisation of incremental CP intake was only 0.05. Increasing dietary CP concentration had no effects on carcass weight, dressing proportion or conformation score, but it increased (P<0.01) fat score. Owing to limited production responses, higher prices of protein supplements compared with cereal grains and possible increases the N and P emissions, there is generally no benefit from using protein supplementation for growing cattle fed grass silage-based diets, provided that the supply of rumen-degradable protein is not limiting digestion in the rumen.     

Relationship between chemical composition and in situ rumen degradation characteristics of maize silages in dairy cows

Several in situ studies have been conducted on maize silages to determine the effect of individual factors such as maturity stage, chop length and ensiling of maize crop on the rumen degradation but the information on the relationship between chemical composition and in situ rumen degradation characteristics remains scarce. The objectives of this study were to determine and describe relationships between the chemical composition and the rumen degradation characteristics of dry matter (DM), organic matter (OM), CP, starch and aNDFom (NDF assayed with a heat stable amylase and expressed exclusive of residual ash) of maize silages. In all, 75 maize silage samples were selected, with a broad range in chemical composition and quality parameters. The samples were incubated in the rumen for 2, 4, 8, 16, 32, 72 and 336 h, using the nylon bag technique. Large range was found in the rumen degradable fractions of DM, OM, CP, starch and aNDFom because of the broad range in chemical composition and quality parameters. The new database with in situ rumen degradation characteristics of DM, OM, CP, starch and aNDFom of the maize silages was obtained under uniform experimental conditions; same cows, same incubation protocol and same chemical analysis procedures. Regression equations were developed with significant predictors (P<0.05) describing moderate and weak relationships between the chemical composition and the washout fraction, rumen undegradable fraction, potentially rumen degradable fraction, fractional degradation rate and effective rumen degradable fraction of DM, OM, CP, starch and aNDFom.
