Laboratory studies on the direct effect of temperature on the freshwater vector snail,Indoplanorbis exustus (Deshyes) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The present study includes the effect of temperature on the survival of young and adult snails, embryonic development, embryonic growth and egg laying of Indoplanorbis exustus. In Indoplanorbis exustus the bottom lethal temperature was 7.0°C and 7.5°C for young and adults respectively. while the upper lethal temperature was 34.0°C and 32.0°C for young and adult snails respectively. Between the temperatures 12.5°C and 36.5°C the embryonic development was accelerated and the incubation period was shortened. The growth of embryos was found to be faster at 25.0°C. The optimum temperature for egg laying was observed at 25.0°C. 相似文献

Synopsis The catfish Heteropneustes fossilis tolerates a wide range of temperatures. The minimal (7.9°C) and maximal (39.8°C) lethal temperature values obtained during summer are higher than the minimal (4°C) and maximal (37.7°C) lethal temperature values obtained during winter; gradual heating or cooling versus abrupt exposure to various temperatures did not produce significant differences. Catfish acclimated to temperatures of 28° (summer) or 16°C (winter) finally selected temperatures ranging from 31.3° to 32° C, when placed in a temperature gradient of 15° to 35° C. Catfish avoid temperatures below 25° C regardless of seasonal acclimatization. 相似文献

Temperature and salinity tolerances were determined for larval California grunion, Leuresthes tenuis (Ayres), and compared with previous data for Gulf of California grunion, L. sardina (Jenkins & Evermann). Larvae of similar age and acclimation history showed little interspecific difference in thermal tolerance, as measured by half-hour LT50 values for 20–30 day old late postlarvae acclimated at various temperatures, and by upper and lower incipient lethal temperatures for 18°C-acclimated prolarvae. The upper incipient lethal temperature differed by 1 deg.-C (32°C for L. tenuis, 31°C for L. sardina), while the lower incipient lethal temperature for the 18°C acclimated prolarvae of both species was 7.5°C. L. tenuis larvae were much less euryhaline than L. sardina, with incipient lethal salinities of 4.2–41 %. for prolarvae and 8.6–38 %. for 20-day-old postlarvae; comparable values for L. sardina are 4–67.5 %. and 5–57.5 %. Both species show a decrease in temperature and salinity tolerance with age. The larvae of these disjunct congeners show a significant physiological divergence in euryhalinity but not in overall temperature tolerance. These tolerances are discussed in relation to the respective geographic ranges and behavioral responses of the two species. 相似文献

Abstract An investigation has been made of the resistance time and upper lethal temperature of ammocoetes of four species of lampreys provided with a substrate into which they could readily burrow. In general, ammocoetes burrowed after transfer from the acclimation to the experimental temperature baths and later came out of the substrate only in lethal temperatures. A relationship was observed between the resistance time and the time taken to emerge, with the resistance time increasing exponentially with decreasing experimental temperature. In Ichthyomyzon fossor, landlocked Petromyzon marinus, Lampetra (Lethenteron) Lamottenii and in Lampetra (Lampetra) planeri from two different times of the year, the incipient lethal levels over a two week experimental period for larvae acclimated to 15° G were respectively 30.5, 30, 29.5, 28.5 and 28° C. Values for P. marinus acclimated to 5 and 25° C were respectively 29.5 and 31° C, whereas in L. planeri they were 28 and 29° C in April/May and 27 and 29° C in July/August. Extrapolation of the results for the three acclimation temperatures yielded ultimate incipient lethal levels of 31.4° G in P. marinus and 29.2 and 29.4° C for L. planeri examined in the spring and summer respectively. 相似文献

Summary Purified RNA polymerase II (RNA nucleotidyl-transferase; EC 2.7.7.6) extracted from flies possessing lesions in the Ultrabithorax-like (Ubl) locus of Drosophila melanogaster has altered activity in vitro (Greenleaf et al. 1979, 1980; Coulter and Greenleaf 1982). This strongly suggests that the Ubl locus encodes a subunit of RNA polymerase II. Ethyl methanesulfonate was used to induce a temperature-sensitive mutation in this locus. Flies either homozygous or hemizygous for this new X–linked mutation (Ubl
ts) display viability comparable to that of wild-type flies at 22° C but are lethal at 29° C. The temperature-sensitive period for Ubl
ts flies is between gastrulation (6 h, 29° C) and pupation (9–10 days, 22° C). Zygotes shifted from 22° C to 29° C die at either the late embryonic or first larval instar stage while temperature shifts of second and third instar larvae result in the lethal phase occurring at the pupal stage. Most pupae shifted from 22° C to 29° C undergo metamorphosis and eclose as adults. Adults are viable if placed at 29° C; however, all females and some males become sterile if maintained at this temperature.Somatic recombination was used to induce clones homozygous for a null allele of Ubl at different stages of development. Clones of this null allele appear to be cell lethal indicating that the Ubl
+ gene product is required at all stages of development. The viability of Ubl
ts pupae and adults at 29° C may result from only a partial reduction in activity caused by the mutation at this nonpermissive temperature. 相似文献

The temperature responses for growth and survival have been experimentally tested for 6 species of the green algal genusCladophora (Chlorophyceae; Cladophorales) (all isolated from Roscoff, Brittany, France, one also from Connecticut, USA), selected from 4 distribution groups, in order to determine which phase in the annual temperature regime might prevent the spread of a species beyond its present latitudinal range on the N. Atlantic coasts. For five species geographic limits could be specifically defined as due to a growth limit in the growing season or to a lethal limit in the adverse season. These species were: (1)C. coelothrix (Amphiatlantic tropical to warm temperate), with a northern boundary on the European coasts formed by a summer growth limit near the 12°C August isotherm. On the American coasts sea temperatures should allow its occurrence further north. (2)C. vagabunda (Amphiatlantic tropical to temperate), with a northern boundary formed by a summer growth limit near the 15°C August isotherm on both sides of the Atlantic. (3)C. dalmatica, as forC. vagabunda. (4)C. hutchinsiae (Mediterranean-Atlantic warm temperate), with a northern boundary formed by a summer growth limit near the 12°C August isotherm, and possibly also a winter lethal limit near the 6°C February isotherm; and a southern boundary formed by a southern lethal limit near the 26°C August isotherm. It is absent from the warm temperate American coast because its lethal limits, 5° and 30°C, are regularly reached there. (5) Preliminary data forC. rupestris (Amphiatlantic temperate), suggest the southeastern boundary on the African coast to be a summer lethal limit near the 26°C August isotherm; the southwestern boundary on the American coast lies on the 20°C August isotherm. For one species,C. albida, the experimental growth and survival range was wider than expected from its geographic distribution, and reasons to account for this are suggested.Paper presented at the Seaweed Biogeography Workshop of the International Working Group on Seaweed Biogeography, held from 3–7 April, 1984 at the Department of Marine Biology, University of Groningen (The Netherlands).

Mature capsules of four small-fruited Myrtaceae (Eucalyptus regnans, Leptospermum laevigatum, L. myrsinoides and Kunzea ambigua) were heated in a muffle furnace over a range of temperatures (200–750° C) and for various lengths of time (15–300s). In addition, the rise in intracapsular temperature with time was measured at 250° C and the lethal seed temperature for K. ambigua determined by heating loose seed in a controlled-temperature water bath. Encapsulated seed survived heating for only short periods event at the lower range of experimental temperatures, with no seed surviving for more than 2 min at 200° C and the highest temperature survived being 650° C for 15 s by L. laevigatum. The species were ranked E. regnans, K. ambigua, L. myrsinoides and L. laevigatum in increasing order of insulating capacity of their capsules, based on survival times of encapsulated seed and the rate of increase of intracapsular temperatures. Seed of K. ambigua was killed when heated in water for a few seconds at 90–100° C. This result agrees closely with the threshold lethal temperature derived for all species by superimposing seed survival versus time and intracapsular temperature versus time curves for capsules heated at 250° C. These results demonstrate that despite their in situ efficacy during fire, small myrtaceous capsules hre mediocre seed insulators. They also suggest that in the field, survival times for encapsulated seed are likely to be in the order of seconds rather than minutes, which points to brief flame residence times in individual tree or shrub canopies. This work has the potential to be developed as a simple but powerful method for the measurement and mapping of fire intensities. 相似文献

The Antarctic notothenioids are among the most stenothermal of fishes, well adapted to their stable, cold and icy environment. The current study set out to investigate the thermal sensitivity/insensitivity of heart rate and ventral aortic blood pressure of the Antarctic nototheniid fish Pagothenia borchgrevinki over a range of temperatures. The heart rate increased rapidly from –1 to 6°C (Q10=2.0–3.3), but was relatively insensitive to temperature above the ~6°C lethal limit of the species (Q10=1.2). The increase in heart rate from –1 to 6°C was the result of a 45% increase in excitatory adrenergic tone, masking a 37% increase in inhibitory cholinergic tone. Ventral aortic pressure was regulated well above the lethal limit, up to at least 10°C. With the return of the fish to environmental temperatures, the heart rate rapidly decreased back to control levels, while ventral aortic pressure increased and remained elevated for over an hour following a 6°C exposure. 相似文献

Summary Four isolates ofCytospora cincta
Fr. and 2 ofC. leucostoma
Fr. were obtained from diseased Italian prune, President plum and Bing cherry trees.The minimum temperature for growth of these fungi was found to be 3° C. Temperatures of 45 °C. were lethal to all cultures. The optimum temperature for theC. cincta isolates on solid and liquid media was found to be 30° C.; for theC. leucostoma isolates, nearly 25° C. OneC. cincta isolate produced greatest radial growth on the solid medium at 35° C., but in the liquid medium produced maximum mycelium at 30° C.All factors considered, the conclusion was reached that the best single temperature for laboratory culture of the fungi was 30° C.Approved by the Director of the Idaho Agricultural Experiment Station as Research Paper No. 493. 相似文献

To analyse the potential reaction to firegenerated heat pulses, seeds of 12 species of plants and rhizomes of three species were exposed to elevated temperatures for 10 min. The tested material split into three groups with respect to heat tolerance: (1) the rhizomes, for which the lethal temperatures were in the range 55–59° C; (2) the seeds of most of the species tested, for which the lethal temperatures were in the range 65–75° C; (3) The seeds of two species of Leguminosae and three species of Geranium for which the lethal temperatures were around 100° C. For all three Geranium species and for one of the legume species, Anthyllis vulneraria, exposure temperatures above ca. 45° C resulted in dormancy release, and maximum germination occurred above 60–65° C. Speed of germination was little affected for most species, except after exposure to nearlethal temperatures, where it slowed down dramatically, although the seedlings emerging were healthy. We conclude that due to sharp temperature gradients in the soil during fire, differences in heat tolerance between species in most cases are not large enough to be a decisive factor in their post-fire colonising success. There are exceptions: the seeds of certain taxa that are impermeable to water in the dormant state, some of which have heat triggered germination. 相似文献

Summary The ability of adults and larvae of two species of perimylopid beetles (Hydromedion sparsutum, Perimylops antarcticus) to survive sub-zero temperatures was studied at Husvik, South Georgia in summer during October–December 1990. Experiments determined their survival at constant sub-zero temperatures, their lower lethal temperatures and individual supercooling points. The effects of cooling rates (0.015°, 0.5° and 2.0°C min–1) and starvation on survival were also assessed. Mean supercooling points of field-collected individuals of both species were in the range -3.0° to -5.4°C with Perimylops having a deeper capacity (ca. 1.5°C) for supercooling relative to Hydromedion. The former species also survived freezing temperatures significantly better than the latter and its mean lower lethal temperature was 2.5°C lower. At a constant temperature of -8.5°C, the median survival times for Perimylops adults and larvae were 19 and 26 h respectively, whilst both stages of Hydromedion died within 3 h. The three cooling rates resulted in significantly different median survival temperatures for adult Hydromedion with 0.5°C min–1 producing maximum survival. Prior starvation did not have a significant influence on the survival of either species at sub-zero temperatures although both adults survived less well. The results support field observations on the habitats and distribution of these insects, and suggest differing degrees of freezing tolerance. 相似文献

When Lactococcus lactis strains were exposed directly to the lethal temperature of 50 C for 30 ;min, 0.1–31% of the cells survived. However, when pre-exposed to 40 °C, prior to exposure at 50 °C, 4–61% of the cells survived. A plasmid carrying a unique heat shock gene from the thermophile Streptococcus thermophilus was cloned into L. ;lactis. When the transformed cells were cultivated at 30 °C the introduction of the plasmid had no obvious effect on the growth of L. ;lactis. However, when the temperature was abruptly shifted from 30 °C to 42 °C at mid-growth phase the growth decreased by 50%. 相似文献

Summary Soybean seedlings (Glycine max) were incubated in narrow temperature regimes to study the effects of heat shock on cell structures. The incubation temperatures used were as follows: 1. 28 °C (2h); 2. 40 °C (2h); 3. 45 °C (2h); 4. 40 °C (2h)45 °C (2h); 5. 47. 5 °C (10 min); 6. 40 °C (2h)47. 5 °C (10 min). Both optical and electron micrographs were taken of the different tissues of root meristems as they responded to heat shock. Cells of roots heated to 45 °C (2h) or 47.5 °C (10 min) with lethal treatment showed drastic heat injuries:e.g., membrane damage, coagulated plasmolysis, protoplasmic contraction, and leakage of cell content. Nucleolar segregation occurred in cells treated at both lethal and supraoptimal temperatures. Seedlings preincubated at 40 °C (2 h) became thermo-tolerant to lethal temperature treatment of 45 °C (2 h) or 47.5 °C (10 min), by protecting the plasmalemma, mitochondria, plastids and nuclei from heat damage. Without preincubation, however, these structures were destroyed.Abbreviations CC

Summary The viability at 16°, 22°, and 30°C, loci, visible phenotypes if any, possible effective lethal phase, and female fertility of seven X-linked, recessive cold sensitive mutations are reported. Five of the seven are female sterile at the restrictive temperature of 16°C; two of these five are also female sterile at the permissive temperature of 25°C. For two of the five mutations which are female sterile, escapers at the restrictive temperature exhibit visible phenotypes characteristic of mutants which affect protein synthesis. The possibility that some of the mutants affect ribosomes is considered. One of the mutants, l(1)TW-6
cs
, is probably a cold sensitive meiotic mutant as well as a cold sensitive zygotic lethal. One of the mutants is a non-conditional visible allele of lozenge.Supported by NSF Grants GB 7707 and GB 20910. 相似文献

Cold adaptation of the terrestrial isopod,Porcellio scaber,to subnivean environments 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0

The terrestrial isopod, Porcellio scaber, was susceptible to subzero temperature: both freezing and chilling were injurious. The level of cold hardiness against chilling and freezing showed different patterns in their seasonal variation. The lower lethal temperature causing 50% mortality, an indicator of the tolerance to chilling, ranged from-1.37°C in August to-4.58°C in December. The whole body supercooling point, the absolute limit of freeze avoidance, was kept at about-7°C throughout the year. The winter decrease in lower lethal temperature was concomitant with an accumulation of low molecular weight carbohydrates which are possible protective reagents against chilling injury, whereas the less seasonally variable supercooling point seemed to be associated with the year-round presence of gut content. Food derivatives may act as efficient ice nucleators. The different trend in seasonal changes between lower lethal temperature and supercooling point may be related to the microclimate of the hibernacula in subnivean environments, where the winter temperature became lower than the lower lethal temperature in the summer active phase, but remained higher than the summer supercooling point.Abbreviations LLT50

Temperature tolerance (1 week exposure time) was determined at intervals during two successive years in 54 dominant marine benthic algae growing near Helgoland (North Sea). Seawater temperatures near Helgoland seasonally range between 3°C (in some years 0°) and 18°C. All algae survived 0°C, and none 33°C. Among the brown algae,Chorda tomentosa was the most sensitive species surviving only 18°C, followed by theLaminaria spp. surviving 20°, however not 23°C.Fucus spp. andCladostephus spongiosus were the most heat-tolerant brown algae, surviving 28°C. Among the red algae, species of the Delesseriaceae(Phycodrys rubens, Membranoptera alata) ranged on the lower end with a maximum survival temperature of 20°C, whereas the representatives of the Phyllophoraceae(Ahnfelitia plicata, Phyllophora truncata, P. pseudoceranoides) exhibited the maximum heat tolerance of the Helgoland marine algal flora with survival at 30°C. The latter value was also achieved byCodium fragile, Bryopsis hypnoides andEnteromorpha prolifera among the green algae, whereas theAcrosiphonia spp. survived only 20°C, andMonostroma undulatum only 10°C, not 15°C. Seasonal shifts of heat tolerance of up to 5°C were detected, especially inLaminaria spp. andDesmarestia aculeata. The majority of the dominant marine algal species of the Helgoland flora occurs in the Arctic, and it is hypothesized that also there the upper lethal limits of these species may hardly have changed even today. The data presented should provide a base for further analysis of the causes of geographical distribution of the North Atlantic algal species, but have still to be supplemented with similar investigations on other coasts, and supplemented with determinations of temperature requirements throughout the life cycle.Paper presented at the Seaweed Biogeography Workshop of the International Working Group on Seaweed Biogeography, held from 3–7 April 1984 at the Department of Marine Biology, University of Groningen (The Netherlands).

Summary The temperature-sensitive mutation in Bacillus subtilis 168-134ts, a conditional lethal DNA initiation mutant, was transferred to the minicell producing strain, CU 403 div IV-B1, to study he relationship of DNA synthesis to cell division. Markers in the combined mutant were verified by transduction. DNA replication kinetics, genome location by autoradiography, and clonal analysis of cell division patterns during spore outgrowths were investigated. Growth of the double mutant at the restrictive temperature results in an impressive reduction of the percentage cell length covered by DNA grain clusters (60.2% at 30° C compared to 8.6% after 2 h at 45° C). The probability of a minicell producing division in double mutant clones is essentially the same at 30° C and during the initial 2–3 h growth at 45° C at which time lysis begins. Residual division at 45° C is attributable to processes initiated at 30° C. The CU 403 div IV-B1, 134ts, double mutant divides about 25% as frequently relative to growth as do wild type CU 403 clones when incubated at permissive temperature. This is approximately 15% greater division suppression than previously found in the CU 403 div IV-B1 mutant strain, and is presumably due to interactions of the mutant gene products both of which affect DNA. 相似文献

Synopsis The most important factor affecting the potential range of 14 non-native fishes in Florida appears to be their lack of tolerance to low temperatures. In this study, temperatures associated with reduction in feeding, cessation of feeding, loss of equilibrium and death were identified by decreasing water temperature 1°C day–1. Fishes tested and their mean lower lethal temperatures were: Astronotus ocellatus (12.9°C), Belonesox belizanus (9.7°C), Cichlasoma bimaculatum (8.9°C), C. cyanoguttatum (5.0°C), C. meeki (10.3°C), C. octofasciatum (8.0°C), C. trimaculatum (10.9°C), Clarias batrachus (9.8°C), Hemichromis bimaculatus (9.5°C), Hypostomus sp. (11.2°C), Tilapia aurea (6.2°C), T. mariae (11.2°C), T. melanotheron (10.3°C) and T. mossambica (9.5°C). These data indicate that temperature is less limiting for these fishes in Florida than was previously recognized.Contribution Number 18, Non-Native Fish Research Laboratory, Florida Game and Fresh Water Fish Commmission, 801 N.

The relationship between distributional boundaries and temperature responses of some Northeast American and West European endemic and amphiatlantic rhodophytes was experimentally determined under varying regimes of temperature, light, and daylength. Potentially critical temperatures, derived from open ocean surface summer and winter isotherms, were inferred from distributional data for each of these algae. On the basis of the distributional data the algae fall within the limits of three phytogeographic groups: (1) the Northeast American tropical-to-temperate group; (2) the warm-temperate Mediterranean Atlantic group; and (3) the amphiatlantic tropical-to-warm temperate group. Experimental evidence suggests that the species belonging to the northeast American tropical-to-temperate group(Grinnellia americana, Lomentaria baileyana, andAgardhiella subulata) have their northern boundaries determined by a minimum summer temperature high enough for sufficient growth and/or reproduction. The possible restriction of 2 species (G. americana andL. baileyana) to the tropical margins may be caused by summer lethal temperatures (between 30 and 35 °C) or because the gradual disintegration of the upright thalli at high temperatures (>30 °C) promotes an ephemeral existence of these algae towards their southern boundaries. Each of the species have a rapid growth and reproductive potential between 15–30 °C with a broad optimum between 20–30 °C. The lower limit of survival of each species was at least 0 °C (tested in short days only). Growth and reproduction data imply that the restrictive distribution of these algae to the Americas may be due to the fact that for adequate growth and/or reproduction water temperatures must exceed 20 °C. At temperatures 15 °C reproduction and growth are limited, and the amphiatlantic distribution through Iceland would not be permitted. On the basis of experimental evidence, the species belonging to the warm-temperate Mediterranean Atlantic group(Halurus equisetifolius), Callophyllis laciniata, andHypoglossum woodwardii), have their northern boundaries determined by winter lethal temperatures. Growth ofH. equisetifolius proceeded from 10–25 °C, that ofC. laciniata andH. woodwardii from 5–25 °C, in each case with a narrow range for optimal growth at ca. 15 °C. Tetrasporelings ofH. woodwardii showed limited survival at 0 °C for up to 4 d. For all members of the group tetrasporangia occurred from 10–20 °C. The southern boundary ofH. equisetifolius andC. laciniata is a summer lethal temperature whereas that ofH. woodwardii possibly is a winter growth and reproduction limit. Since each member of this group has a rather narrow growth and survival potential at temperatures <5 °C and >20 °C, their occurrence in northeast America is unlikely. The (irregular) distribution ofSolieria tenera (amphiatlantic tropical-to-warm temperate) cannot be entirely explained by the experimental data (possibly as a result of taxonomic uncertainties).Paper presented at the Seaweed Biogeography Workshop of the International Working Group on Seaweed Biogeography, held from 3–7 April, 1984 at the Department of Marine Biology, University of Groningen (The Netherlands).

Summary Sterilized soil (pH 7.7) seeded withC. neoformans was incubated at different temperatures and under various atmospheric conditions during a summer and winter.Incubated for one year at constant temperatures in atmospheric humidities, the organism survived in greater number and for longer periods of time at 4–6° C. Increased humidity greatly enhanced the survival and proliferation of the organisms incubated at 4–6° C and 20–24° C but had little effect on organisms incubated at 37° C.Summer temperatures in Oklahoma coupled with direct exposure to the sun were lethal to the organism in 100 % humidity. In the winter months, exposure to sunlight had no effect on the viability ofC. neoformans.As incubation time in soil increased the thickness of the capsule decreased.Cryptococcus neoformans probably exists in nature in nearly nonencapsulated state. It survives best in alkaline soils, in areas of high humidity, and where the organisms are protected from high temperatures and direct sunlight.This investigation was partially supported by Public Health Service grants AIO5022 and CC-00081, from the National Institute of Health.This work was done in partial fulfillment for the Ph.D. degree. 相似文献
