水稻中重金属的含量及其富集因素的探讨

采集我国12种土壤,进行盆栽水稻试验,结果表明:不同土壤上盆栽水稻糙米中镉、铜、锌、镍和铬的平均含量分别为0.035ppm、4.82ppm、23.45ppm、1.09ppm和0.102ppm,铅在糙米中未检出。 按自然地带划分,不同土壤上生长的糙米中6种元素除铬外,均以热带、亚热带湿润地区含量高。 不同土壤投加6种元素后种植水稻,以有机质含量高,pH适中的土壤上水稻生长较好,但各类土壤上生长的水稻均表现出受害症状。重金属在糙米中的累积随土壤pH升高而降低,随土壤有机质含量增高而减少。与土壤中<0.01毫米和<0.005毫米粒径含量呈负相关。     

Cell growth of skeletal muscle as an indicator of protein requirements of the adult rat

Skeletal muscle growth, muscle nucleic acids and muscle protein synthesis capacity, were measured to evaluate the protein requirement of adult rats. Wistar rats were fed on diets containing 4%, 10% or 20% casein + D,L-methionine. All diets were provided for 21 days beginning at 90 days of age. Body weight, food efficiency and net weight change increased as the casein content of the diet increased. Muscle DNA, RNA and RNA/protein were lost, but protein and protein/DNA increased on the 4% and 20% protein diet. This fact involves an aplasia phenomenon although the hypertrophic growth is maintained. Alterations of the insulin and GH plasma levels were observed. These findings indicate that for adult rats the 4% and 20% protein diets are not adequate for the period of adult maintenance.     

Effect of ACTH, dexamethasone, and adrenalectomy on the secretion of testosterone in the rat

The effect of ACTH (100 micrograms/animal/day, i.p.), dexamethasone (75 micrograms/animal/day, s.c.), both for three consecutive days, and adrenalectomy, with or without dexamethasone, maintained according to the group, one, two or three days, on the plasmatic testosterone and corticosterone levels, has been studied in adult male Wistar rats. ACTH and adrenalectomy produced a high decrease in testosterone levels (p less than 0.001 for the three days studied). Dexamethasone produced lower testosterone levels in the first day followed by partial recuperation between the second and the third days of its administration. Dexamethasone produced the effects mentioned for intact animals. The changes in corticosterone levels were according to an adequate response of the hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal system under these experimental circumstances. ACTH exerts an inhibitory effect on testosterone secretion in the rat, so that such an effect from the data obtained after adrenalectomy and simultaneous dexamethasone injections, does not seems to be mediated either by the presence of adrenals or high corticosterone levels.

猕猴桃属美味猕猴桃和毛花猕猴桃种间杂交的胚胎学和胚援救

本文报道美味猕猴桃(Actintdia delictosa cv.Hayward)(6x)和毛花猕猴桃(A.eria-ntha)(2x)杂交当代种子的胚胎学分析和胚援救的结果:1.根据杂交种子外部形态和胚胎发育程度,区分为正常的和败育的两类,其比率接近1:1。正常种子的胚发育分化正常,且含有适量胚乳。败育种子中,除少数不含胚和胚乳外,绝大多数种子的胚发育终止于球形、心形和早子叶阶段,胚体畸形。胚乳处于消失或完全解体。2.在被试8组培养基中,最适合胚萌发和生长的是:MS+IAA0.5ppm+GA_30.5ppm,MS+2ip2ppm+IAA0.5ppm+GA_30.5ppm和 MS+2ip2ppm+GA_30.5ppm。适于实生苗生长的培养基为 MS+GA_30.5ppm 和 MS 培养基。在 MS+BAP2ppm 和 MS+IAA0.5ppm+GA_30.5ppm 培养基上,一些正常种子和少数不正常种子胚的下胚轴直接形成了许多不定芽,从而诱导产生了更多的杂种植株。但是在MS十BAP2ppm+GA_30.5ppm,MS+BAP2ppm+IAA0.5ppm 和 MS+2ip2ppm+GA_30.5ppm培养基上,虽然胚产生了愈伤组织,但都未分化出器官。杂种实生苗根尖细胞近半数的含有近4倍性染色体数(4x=116),约半数为其他倍性。     

Inorganic-carbon uptake by a small-celled strain of Stichococcus bacillaris

Air-grown cells of a marine, small-celled (2 m diameter) strain of Stichococcus bacillaris contained appreciable carbonic-anhydrase activity but this was repressed when cells were grown on air enriched with 5% (v/v) CO₂. Assay of carbonic-anhydrase activity using intact cells and cell extracts showed all activity was intracellular in this Stichococcus strain. Measurement of inorganic-carbon-dependent photosynthetic O₂ evolution at pH 5.0, where CO₂ is the predominant form of inorganic carbon, showed that the concentration of inorganic carbon required for half-maximal rate of photosynthetic O₂ evolution [K_0.5(CO₂)] was 4.0 M for both air- and CO₂-grown cells. At pH 8.3 the K_0.5(CO₂) was 0.3 mM for air-grown and 0.6 mM for CO₂-grown cells. Sodium ions did not enhance bicarbonate utilization. Measurement of the internal inorganic-carbon pool (HCO ₃ ^– +CO₂) by the silicone-oil-layer centrifugal filtering technique showed that air- and CO₂-grown cells were able to concentrate inorganic carbon up to 20-fold in relation to the external medium at pH 5.0 but not at pH 8.3. In this alga the high affinity for CO₂ and inorganic-carbon accumulation in CO₂- and air-grown cells results from active CO₂ transport that is not dependent on carbonic-anhydrase activity.Abbreviation Hepes 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazine ethanesulfonic acid     

中国人线粒体DNA的八种限制酶图及其电镜结构

尽管Anderson等人(1981)已测定了人mtDNA的全部序列,但还不能全面地反映整个人类mtDNA核苷酸序列的情况。因此,在具有代表特征的中国人mtDNA序列被测定之前,为了开展对中国人mtDNA的遗传学研究,笔者构建了中国人mtDNA的8种限制酶图。并通过电镜技术对mtDNA进行了研究,发现了一种周长为2μm的小环状DNA,推测它可能在核DNA和mtDNA之间的信息传递或衰老发生中起到某些作用。
