Isolation of microsatellite DNA and analysis on genetic diversity of endangered fish,Hucho taimen (Pallas)

Hucho taimen (Pallas) is an endangered species in China. To evaluate the species’ genetic diversity and population genetic structure, we isolated six polymorphic microsatellite markers from its genomic libraries by (ACA)₁₆ enriched, and characterized using 61 wild individuals. The number of alleles per locus ranged from two to seven, expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.3200 to 0.7410, polymorphism information content ranged from 0.3047 to 0.6896. These markers will be useful for the genetic variation assessment of taimen.     

Isolation and characterization of 18 polymorphic microsatellite markers in Chinese mandarin fish Siniperca chuatsi (Basilewsky)

Eighteen microsatellite markers were isolated and characterized using an enrichment protocol in the Chinese mandarin fish Siniperca chuatsi (Basilewsky), a commercially important piscivorous fish in China. Out of 48 pairs of primers designed, 18 loci exhibited polymorphism with three to six alleles (mean 4.4 alleles/locus) and average observed heterozygosity ranged from 0.633 to 0.833 (mean 0.748) in a test population from Dongting Lake of China. Except for two loci, all other 16 loci were in the Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium. These markers would be useful for such studies as population genetics, ecology and selective breeding of the Chinese mandarin fish in future.     

猫嗅球外丛层和僧帽细胞层年龄相关形态学变化

分别用Nissl法及免疫组织化学ABC法标记青、老年猫嗅球中嗅觉二级神经元和外丛层胶质细胞,显微镜下观察其分布并计数,对嗅觉二级神经元胞体直径和外丛层厚度进行测量,比较其年龄相关性变化,研究神经元与胶质细胞之间的关系,探讨老年性嗅觉功能衰退的相关神经机理。结果显示,老年猫嗅觉二级神经元胞体直径和分布密度均有不同程度的显著性下降(P<0.05);外丛层厚度变化不明显(P>0.05);外丛层胶质细胞特别是星形胶质细胞显著性增生(P<0.05)。表明在衰老过程中嗅觉二级神经元有丢失,并呈现功能下降,可能是老年性嗅觉功能衰退的原因之一。同时外丛层胶质细胞增生以进一步保护神经元,延缓其衰老。     

Cd2+结合肽的筛选及与重金属离子的亲和作用

利用噬菌体随机十二肽库和亲和层析技术对重金属Cd进行亲和筛选,共获得两条Cd结合肽序列。将展示有Cd2 结合肽的噬菌体单克隆扩增物对不同重金属离子(Cd2 、Cr2 、Cu2 、Co2 、Zn2 、Ni2 )螯合的树脂进行亲和测定,结果表明Cu2 、Co2 、Zn2 、Ni2 对结合肽的亲和力高于Cd2 和Cr2 。抑菌解毒试验进一步确认了Cd2 结合肽对大肠杆菌重金属的解毒作用。显微观察可见金属结合肽与金属螯合树脂混合后分散度发生改变。     

Identification of Related QTLs at Late Developmental Stage in Rice (Oryza sativa L.) Under Two Nitrogen Levels

QTL underlying related traits at the late developmental stage under two different nitrogen levels were investigated in rice using a population of chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSL) derived from a cross between Teqing and Lemont. A total of 31 QTLs referring 5 traits, that is, plant height (PH), panicle number per plant (PN), chlorophyll content (CC), shoot dry weight (SDW) and grain yield per plant (YD), were detected. Under normal N level, 3 QTLs were detected for each trait, while under low N level, 5,4, 5 and 2 QTLs were detected for PH, PN, CC and SDW respectively. Most of the QTLs were located on chromosome 2, 3, 7, 11 and 12. QTLs controlling different traits or the same trait under different N levels were mapped on the same or adjacent intervals, forming several clusters in rice chromosomes. More than two traits were controlled by QTLs on one of four intervals (RM30-RM439, RM18-RM478, RM309-RM270, and RM235-RM17), suggesting that there were some pleiotropic effects. It was supposed that some QTLs only detected at low N level might be associated with the ability to tolerate the low N stress in rice.     

一株口腔链球菌新种—寡发酵链球菌产过氧化氢特性的研究

从健康人口腔中分离的寡发酵链球菌(Streptococcus oligofermentans)能够产生大量的过氧化氢,可能具有抑制致病菌的潜力。为了研究该细菌产过氧化氢的特性,检测了其在不同生长时期和从不同底物产过氧化氢的能力。结果表明,寡发酵链球菌从对数生长早期就开始产过氧化氢,在对数生长后期及稳定期过氧化氢产量达到最高,随后下降。在PYG培养基中,寡发酵链球菌所产的过氧化氢主要来源于大豆蛋白胨和酵母提取物;而代谢终产物乳酸也可作为过氧化氢产生的底物。对3种可能与过氧化氢生成有关的氧化酶的酶活测定表明,寡发酵链球菌具有乳酸氧化酶(LOX)及NADH氧化酶(NOX)的活性,说明其过氧化氢的产生主要依赖于这两种酶的活力。     

长江口岛屿沙洲湿地陆向发育过程中表层沉积物氮营养盐的变化

研究针对长江口岛屿沙洲湿地陆向发育的不同时期表层沉积物中氮营养盐的变化规律,得出：（1）长江口岛屿沙洲湿地陆向发育过程中,表层沉积物环境也在不断变化,氮营养盐含量逐步增加,处在陆向发育前期的白茆沙,全氮含量较低,仅为30 mg/kg,而发育较为成熟的崇明东滩全氮含量较高,达470 mg/kg;同时随着岛屿沙洲湿地陆向发育,表层沉积物全氮分布越来越不均匀;（2）长江口岛屿沙洲湿地随高程梯度,全氮的含量逐步增加,其中芦苇带最高,420 mg/kg,光滩最低,110 mg/kg;这也说明岛屿沙洲陆向发育过程中,表层沉积物全氮含量逐步增加;另外,各形态无机氮含量占其所在高程无机氮的比例相对稳定,其中氨氮最高,59%～60%,亚硝酸盐最低,17%～19%,氨氮是无机氮的主要存在形式.     

树叶凋落物在受酸性矿山废水污染溪流中的分解

为了解华南地区酸性矿山废水对溪流中树叶分解的影响,在广东省大宝山矿区附近的1条受酸性矿山废水污染（pH值为2．7—3．4且富含多种重金属元素）的3级溪流中,利用2种孔径（5ram的网袋和0．1ram的布袋）的分解网袋对2种树叶（人面子和蒲桃）进行了为期101d的树叶分解研究。结果表明,人面子树叶网袋和布袋中的树叶干重剩余率分别为39％和48％,而蒲桃树叶网袋和布袋中的干重剩余率仍保持较高的水平,分别为61％和70％。根据指数衰减模型计算出树叶分解的半衰期,人面子树叶在网袋和布袋中的分解半衰期分别为57d和69d,而蒲桃树叶则分别为14-4d和217d。蒲桃树叶的分解速率明显比人面子树叶慢。在网袋中定殖的底栖动物主要是集食者,其中优势类群为摇蚊幼虫,占底栖动物个体总数的99％。摇蚊种群在网袋中的数量波动对2种树叶分解速率的影响并不明显。结果表明,受酸性矿山废水的影响,底栖动物群落的多样性大为减少。同时由于各种金属氧化物在树叶表面的不断沉淀,使树叶处于缺氧状态,抑制了微生物的活动,导致树叶分解速率大为降低。     

An ecologically mixed brachiopod fauna from Changhsingian deep-water basin of South China: consequence of end-Permian global warming

The Late Permian Shaiwa Group of the Ziyun area of Guizhou, South China is a deep-water facies succession characterized by deep-water assemblages of pelagic radiolarians, foraminifers, bivalves, ammonoids and brachiopods. Here we report 20 brachiopod species in 18 genera from the uppermost Shaiwa Group. This brachiopod fauna is latest Changhsingian in age and dominated by productides. The palaeoecologic and taphonomic analysis reveals that the brachiopod fauna is preserved in situ. The attachment modes and substratum preference demonstrate that the Shaiwa brachiopod fauna comprises admixed elements of deep-water and shallow-water assemblages. The presence of the shallow-water brachiopods in the Shaiwa faunas indicates the involuntary settlement of shallow-water brachiopods. The stressed ecologic pressure, triggered by warming surface waters, restricted ecospace and short food sources, may have forced some shallow-water elements to move to hospitable deep-water settings and others to modify their habiting behaviours and exploit new ecospace in deep-water environments. We infer that the end-Permian global warming and subsequent transgression event may have accounted for the stressed environmental pressure in the shallow-water communities prior to the end-Permian mass extinction.
