A population on the edge: genetic diversity and population structure of the world's northernmost harbour seals (Phoca vitulina)

It is crucial to examine the genetic diversity and structure of small, isolated populations, especially those at the edge of their distribution range, because they are vulnerable to stochastic processes if genetic diversity is low and the isolation level is high, and because such populations provide insight into the consequences of population declines in a broader conservation context. The harbour seal (Phoca vitulina) population in Svalbard is the world's northernmost P. vitulina population. Nothing is known about the genetic diversity, distinctiveness, or origin of this small, marginalized mammalian population. Thus, the present study investigated its genetic status in the context of nearby P. vitulina in Iceland, south‐east Greenland, and northern Norway: this species is depleted/threatened in all of these regions. A total of 174 samples distributed between the four locations were analysed using 15 polymorphic microsatellites and variation in the displacement loop region (D‐loop). Each of the four locations was a genetically distinct population. The Svalbard population was highly genetically distinct, had reduced genetic diversity, received limited gene flow, had a rather low effective population size, and showed an indication of having experienced a bottleneck resulting from a recent population decline. The significant heterozygote excess observed in the Svalbard sample might be attributed to the low effective population size, which could initiate future population inbreeding effects. This phenomenon has not been reported earlier from other P. vitulina populations, but if the Svalbard population is experiencing inbreeding, this could reduce its resilience to climate change, disease outbreaks, or other perturbations. © 2011 The Linnean Society of London, Biological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2011, 102 , 420–439.     

温度与光周期对麝凤蝶生长发育的影响

观察了麝凤蝶的卵、幼虫和蛹在不同温度和光周期条件下的发育历期。结果表明 :卵、幼虫和蛹的发育起点温度分别为 1 3 7,7 9和 8 0℃ ,有效积温分别为 43 8,3 98 0和 2 79 4日·度 ;越冬蛹的发育可以分为 5个阶段 ;大部分越冬蛹在上午 (88 2 % )羽化 ;长光照处理平均比短光照出处理提前羽化 2d。

云南中部地区植被覆盖时空变化特征及其影响因素研究

基于MODIS NDVI数据通过像元二分模型提取植被覆盖, 利用线性趋势、相关分析方法分析了云南中部地区2000—2016年植被覆盖的时空分布特征与变化趋势, 并探讨了气候因子、地形因子、人类活动对其植被覆盖的影响。研究结果为: 云南中部地区植被覆盖春季最低(平均58.75%), 秋季最高(平均66.30%), 大部分地区年植被覆盖度的平均值在50%—70%之间; 植被覆盖高值区主要分布在曲靖境内(>80%); 滇池周边人口高密度区植被覆盖常年最低(<20%)。近17年来云南中部地区植被覆盖总体呈现增长趋势, 年平均增长率0.3%•a-1, 其中秋季增幅最大(0.42%•a-1)。坡度对植被覆盖影响较大, 坡度≤8°地区的植被覆盖明显较低。除了冬季降水量与植被覆盖呈现显著正相关关系, 其他季节多呈现负相关关系; 气温与植被覆盖多呈现正相关关系, 云南中部地区植被覆盖变化主要受气温影响。人类活动对植被覆盖变化影响较大, 造林面积变化与植被覆盖趋势变化具有相对一致性, 经济发展水平较高的昆明市区植被覆盖为常年最低。     

Satellite-based Studies on Large-Scale Vegetation Changes in China

Remotely-sensed vegetation indices, which indicate the density and photosynthetic capacity of vegetation, have been widely used to monitor vegetation dynamics over broad areas. In this paper, we reviewed satellite-based studies on vegetation cover changes, biomass and productivity variations, phenological dynamics, desertification, and grassland degradation in China that occurred over the past 2–3 decades. Our review shows that the satellite-derived index (Normalized Difference Vegetation Index, NDVI) during growing season and the vegetation net primary productivity in major terrestrial ecosystems (for example forests, grasslands, shrubs, and croplands) have significantly increased, while the number of fresh lakes and vegetation coverage in urban regions have experienced a substantial decline. The start of the growing season continually advanced in China's temperate regions until the 1990s, with a large spatial heterogeneity. We also found that the coverage of sparsely-vegetated areas declined, and the NDVI per unit in vegetated areas increased in arid and semi-arid regions because of increased vegetation activity in grassland and oasis areas. However, these results depend strongly not only on the periods chosen for investigation, but also on factors such as data sources, changes in detection methods, and geospatial heterogeneity. Therefore, we should be cautious when applying remote sensing techniques to monitor vegetation structures, functions, and changes.     

北京山区植被动态及生态恢复的遥感监测

基于北京地区1979、1988、1999、2005和2009年5期Landsat数据,利用基于植被指数的像元线性分解模型对植被覆盖度进行反演,分析了北京山区植被覆盖的时空动态,并通过提取植被退化和修复的区域,研究了海拔、坡度和土壤类型对生态修复的影响.结果表明：1979-1988年,北京山区植被覆盖基本稳定,其后由于社会经济的快速发展,1988-2000年北京山区植被严重退化,2000年以后由于采取多种保护措施,大部分区域生态恢复效果明显,2009年平均覆盖度达到72%,比1999年增加了13%.北京山区植被覆盖变化与地理特征密切相关,土壤贫瘠和坡度较大区域在自然状态下的退化比例相对较高,且退化后不易自然恢复,而低海拔区域受人为因素的影响更大.     

植食性昆虫对植物的反防御机制

本文综述了植食性昆虫对植物的反防御机制.一方面,植食性昆虫可通过其快速进化的寄主选择适应性,改变取食策略,调节生长发育的节律,以及规避自然天敌等抑制、逃避或改变植物的防御,即行为防御机制;另一方面,植食性昆虫可适应植物蛋白酶抑制剂、逃避植物防御伤信号、解毒植物次生物质,以及抑制植物阻塞反应来对植物防御进行反防御,即生理和生化防御机制.其中,昆虫抑制植物伤信号,防止植物阻塞反应是反防御机制的研究热点.昆虫反防御的研究有助于提高对昆虫-植物间协同进化关系的认识,并为害虫治理和抗虫植物的培育提供新的思路.
