国产木兰科6属植物柱头表面形态比较

用扫描电镜对中国产木兰科单性木兰属、木兰属、木莲属、含笑属、拟单性木兰属和观光木属的42种植物柱头表面形态进行观察.结果表明,42种木兰科植物的柱头均为干柱头,包含单细胞乳突型和多细胞乳突型两类.单性木兰属和观光木属植物是单细胞乳突型;木莲属、含笑属和拟单性木兰属植物是多细胞乳突型;木兰属中木兰亚属植物两型均有,而玉兰亚属则均为多细胞乳突型.结合其他证据,本文支持单性木兰属、木莲属、含笑属、拟单性木兰属和观光木属的建立,并认为在系统学问题较复杂的木兰属中,玉兰亚属是一个相对独立的单系类群,将其独立成属也不无道理,而木兰亚属可能不是一个单系类群,还需要进一步的深入研究,积累更多的性状数据.     

Survival Impact of Delaying Postoperative Radiotherapy in Patients with Esophageal Cancer

The purpose of the current study was to retrospectively assess the effect of postoperative radiotherapy (RT) delay on survival for patients with esophageal cancer. From 2008 to 2011, patients with esophageal cancer who had undergone postoperative RT in five different hospitals in China were reviewed. Clinical data, including time interval between surgery to RT, were prospectively collected. Kaplan-Meier method was conducted to estimate the effect of each variable on progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS), with differences assessed by log-rank test. Univariate Cox proportional-hazards models were performed for both PFS and OS for all assumed predictor variables. Statistically significant predictor variables (P < .05) on univariate analysis were then included in multivariate Cox proportional-hazards models, which were performed to compare the effects of RT delay on PFS and OS. A total of 316 patients were finally enrolled in this prospectively multicentric study. Time to RT after surgery varied from 12 days to over 60 days (median, 26 days). Multivariate analysis showed that delay to RT longer than the median does not appear to be a survival cost. There was also no statistically difference in PFS (P = .513) or OS (P = .236) between patients stratified by quartiles (≤21 days vs ≧35 days). However, patients with particularly long delays (≧42 days) demonstrated a detrimental impact on OS (P = .021) but not PFS (P = .580). Delaying postoperative RT of esophageal cancer does not impact PFS, but results in a significant reduction on OS if delaying longer than 6 weeks.     

濒危植物大果木莲种群格局及濒危原因分析

采用径级结构代替年龄结构以及方差均值比率法对木兰科(Magnoliaceae)木莲属(Manglietia Bl.)濒危植物大果木莲(Manglietia grandis Hu et Cheng)种群的年龄结构和种群格局进行了研究,并编制了大果木莲种群的特定时间生命表和存活曲线;结合生殖生物学特征以及遗传多样性研究结果,分析了导致大果木莲濒危的主要原因.根据株高和胸径可分别将大果木莲种群的年龄结构分为5级、高度结构分为6级;在大果木莲的5个年龄结构分级中,成年个体较多,幼年个体较少;其高度结构完整,个体高度主要在20 m以下.种群的方差均值比率为0.838 3,其空间分布格局属于随机分布.根据特定时间生命表可将大果木莲种群的发育分为3个阶段:幼树阶段(年龄级为Ⅱ～Ⅲ级)、成树阶段(年龄级为Ⅲ～Ⅳ级)、老树阶段(年龄级为Ⅳ～Ⅴ级),其中成树阶段个体死亡率最低.大果木莲种群存活曲线接近Deevey Ⅰ型,属于衰退型种群.种群自我更新能力差、种子生产力低下、有性生殖困难、生境片断化导致的基因流受限以及人为干扰是大果木莲濒危的主要原因.针对大果木莲濒危现状和致危原因,提出了相应的保护对策和建议.     

棘豆属刺垫棘豆亚属(豆科)的订正

1971年,N.Ulzijkhutag根据采自阿拉善戈壁(=Bordzon-Go-bi)的标本(1970-07-29,V.I.Grubov,N.Ulzijkhutag et G.Tserendalzhid,无号)发表新种Oxytrops grubovii,并以此建立新组Oxytropis subgen.Traganthoxytropis sect.Monan-thos;1987年,G.P.Yakovlev将O.grubovii归入海绵豆属Spongiocarpella;1988年,张振万同意N.Ulzijkhutag的意见,并根据刺垫棘豆之龙骨瓣无喙等特征将Ulzijkhutag的刺     

沙冬青愈伤组织对培养基的特殊要求和球形胚状分化结构的诱导

通过对沙冬青未成熟子叶进行离体培养,获得了愈伤组织。基本培养基采用Ｂ５,再配合ＭＳ培养基的铁盐成分,对沙冬青未成熟子叶愈伤组织的诱导和生长效果最佳。愈伤组织的诱导和生长对培养基的附加成分要求十分严格,２,４－Ｄ浓度为０．５ｍｇ／Ｌ,６－ＢＡ浓度为０．５ｍｇ／Ｌ,蔗粮不宜超过２％。愈伤组织最初为乳白色透明松散状态,生长比较缓慢,极易褐化死亡。如果培养基中的蔗糖浓度低于２％,两周后未成熟子叶愈伤组织逐

A quantitative study of phagocytosis by hemolymph cells of the pelecypods Crassostrea virginica and Mercenaria mercenaria

Fresh hemolymph cells of the pelecypods Crassostrea virginica and Mercenaria mercenaria were exposed to known concentrations of Bacillus megaterium, Escherichia coli, and Staphylococcus aureus in vitro and it was ascertained that all four types of cells of C. virginica and all three types of M. mercenaria became associated with the bacteria. Association is defined as either the first, i.e., contact and adherence, or second, i.e., engulfment, phase of phagocytosis. However, when the surfaces of each type of cell, as well as the percentages of each type in whole hemolymph, from both species of molluscs are taken into consideration, it is concluded that the granulocytes are the most important from the standpoint of phagocytosis.When hemocytes of M. mercenaria were exposed to Bacillus megaterium at 4°, 22°, and 37°C, it was found that the association indices were higher at the latter two temperatures. It is postulated, because of the results of Feng and Feng (1974), that nonself materials adhere with less frequency at 4°C and hence are not phagocytosed at this lower temperature.
