塔里木盆地草2井东河砂岩段孢子组合的时代

塔里木盆地北部草２井东河砂岩段５９９１－６０２２ｍ井段产有丰富的孢子化石,有关该孢子组合的时代长期存有争论。本文剖析了针对这一孢子组合的不同时代观点,依据国内外地质分布限于晚泥盆世的Ａｎｃｙｒｏｓｐｏｒａｓｐｐ．,Ｒｅｔｉｓｐｏｒａｃａｓｉｃｕｌａ（Ｈｉｇｇｓ）ＨｉｇｇｓｅｔＲｕｓｓｅｌ和ＡｐｉｃｕｌｉｒｅｔｕｓｉｓｐｏｒａｒａｒｉｓｉｍａＷｅｎｅｔＬｕ等重要孢子在当前组合的出现,以及该组合与塔西南晚泥盆世孢子组合可以对比,论证了东河砂岩孢子组合的时代应为晚泥盆世。     

塔里木盆地北部晚泥盆世孢子组合

塔里木盆地北部草２井东河塘组产丰富的、保存完好的孢子化石,计３７属７３种,据此建立Ａｐｉｃｕｌｉｒｅ－ｔｕｓｉｓｐｏｒａ ｈｕｎａｎｅｎｓｉｓ－Ａｎｃｙｒｏｓｐｏｒａ ｆｕｒｃｕｌａ（ＨＦ）孢子组合带。对一些孢子的已知地质分布记录及其与西欧和塔西南晚泥盆世孢子组合带序列的对比讨论,表明ＨＦ孢子带的时代为晚泥盆世法门期,大致与爱尔兰晚泥盆世ＬＬ＋ＬＥ孢子带时代相当。描述孢子３新种,图示孢子６１种。     

新疆中天山汗吉尕组Helenifore robustum放射虫动物群及其年代地层学意义

汗吉尕组是新疆中天山温泉小区中泥盆统的一个地层单元,为海相碎屑岩夹火山碎屑岩沉积。过去在灰岩团块和灰岩砾石中发现较为丰富的中泥盆世珊瑚和腕足类化石。这次,我们在该组上部地层硅质岩透镜体中首次发现晚泥盆世弗拉晚期的放射虫Helenifore robustum动物群。对于温泉地区该组地层的时代归属,我们认为:由于已发现的中泥盆世珊瑚、腕足类化石主要产于灰岩砾石或外来块体中,因此,这些化石的时代并不代表该组形成的时代;而产于硅质岩透镜体中的晚泥盆世弗拉晚期的放射虫化石很可能代表该组的年代。全文共描述放射虫5属11种,归属3目4科。     

滇东早泥盆世星骨鱼科(Asterosteidae)化石的发现

<正> 目前,泥盆纪星骨鱼科化石除非洲和南极地区尚未发现外,世界其它各地均有发现,但化石产地并不多.其时代从早泥盆世一直延续到晚泥盆世早期,多数出现在早—中泥盆世.所有化石全部产于海相地层.据现有资料统计,已经发现和描述的只有5个属,即 Asterosteus, Gemuendina, Jagorina, Ohioaspis, Bolivosteus,分布在德国(早泥盆世),美国(中泥盆世),加拿大(中泥盆世),澳大利亚(早一中泥盆世),土耳其(中泥盆世)和玻利维亚(中泥盆世).     

湖南界岭邵东段小孢子及其地质时代

湖南界岭邵东段小孢子化石的地方特性较明显，并含有较多见于俄罗斯地台晚泥盆世沉积地层的分子，也有少量原被视为欧美地区典型的石炭纪分子，因此具有浓厚的泥盆纪与石炭纪的双重时代色彩。但对１０１个已知小孢子种（可归入４２属）的研究表明。邵东段归属晚泥盆世晚期更为合理。     

老挝北部南莫溪结合带放射虫化石组合及其构造古地理意义

南莫溪结合带位于老挝北部万象地区,是黎府缝合带的重要组成部分。本文结合区域地质调查开展剖面工作,采集了硅质岩样品进行放射虫化石鉴定,共鉴定出放射虫9属29种,包括中–晚泥盆世放射虫Radiobisphaera rozanovi,Trilonchevetusta和晚泥盆世放射虫Heleniforerobustum,以及晚泥盆世放射虫属种Triloncheminax (Hinde)等。建立了中–晚泥盆世Radiobisphaera rozanovi-Stigmosphaerostylus pusilla组合带、晚泥盆世Trilonche minax延限带和早石炭世Albaillella paradoxa-Archocyrtium riedeli组合带,探讨了南莫溪结合带的构造古地理特征。该成果进一步丰富了老挝北部黎府缝合带的古生物化石组成特征,对研究南莫溪结合带的演化历史具有重要的指示意义。     

塔里木盆地西南缘晚泥盆世疑源类

塔里木盆地西南缘奇自拉夫组产疑源类６属１１种（含７个新种）,国内外晚泥盆世代表分子Ｇｏｒｇｏｎｉｓｐｈａｅｒｉｄｉｕｍｏｈｉｏｅｎｓｅ出现于当前疑源类组合,指示其时代应为晚泥盆世（Ｆａｍｅｎｎｉａｎ）;对疑源类的生态环境、围岩特征及同层其它生物群的综合分析,表明奇自拉夫组为海相近岸沉积。     

Archaeoperisaccus属的地质历程和地理分布

Archaeoperisaccus是苏联孢粉学者纳乌莫娃(Naumova,1953)在俄罗斯陆台晚泥盆世早期Similuke和Petino层中发现并建立的属,该属的地质时代限于晚泥盆世早期弗拉斯阶(Frasnian),地理分布限于北欧、北美和安加拉古大陆。 近年来的研究表明,Archaeoperisaccus在中国也有广泛分布,该属的地质历程从中泥盆世早期艾菲尔阶(Eifelian)至晚泥盆世晚期斯特连阶(Strunian)。因此,中国的Archaeoperisaccus孢子早于苏联、北美的加拿大和美国的阿拉斯加。中国可能是该属的起源中心。 根据古地磁资料,西藏聂拉木、华南(包括西秦岭)在泥盆纪时都位于古赤道以南,因此该属可以出现在古赤道南、北两半球,南半球可能早于北半球。     

湖南界岭邵东段微体植物群

湖南界岭微体植物群由５６属１４５种小孢子及很少量的疑源类与虫牙组成,并以Ｓｐｅｌａｅｏｔｒｉｌｅｔｅｓ ｈｕｎａｎｅｎｓｉｓ的百分含量最高和同时含泥盆纪与石炭纪双重时代色彩的分子为特征。但其地质时代属晚泥盆世晚期或晚法门期。     

新疆哈密地区晚泥盆世疑源类化石的发现及地质意义

从新疆哈密地区石城子北剖面7件样品获得分异度较高、有机质壁显著炭化保存的疑源类化石,根据其形态特征,共鉴定出14个形态属和15个形态种(其中8个未定种,3个比较种)。结合国内外古生代晚泥盆世已知疑源类组合进行比较,清楚表明当前获得的疑源类组合代表了晚泥盆世海洋微体浮游植物群面貌。我国涉及晚古生代疑源类生物地层的调查研究相对薄弱,而有关晚泥盆世疑源类化石的发现和报道更为匮乏,当前疑源类化石的发现,填补和丰富了新疆乃至国内晚泥盆世疑源类化石研究资料。该发现佐证了关于卡拉麦里洋在早石炭世闭合的认识;作为基础食物链的海洋微体浮游植物是重要成烃生物,晚泥盆世疑源类的保存预示研究区域具有石油、天然气勘察的前景。     

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.     

肝癌中HBV和HCV基因和抗原的分布及意义

采用原位分子杂交方法检测HCV RNA及HBV X基因;采用免疫组织化学方法研究HCV核心抗原,非结构区C33c抗原及HBxAg在肝细胞肝癌中的定位及分布.结果表明(1)HCV RNA、HBV X基因在肝细胞肝癌组织检出率分别为40%(55/136)和82%(112/136).HCV RNA定位于癌细胞的胞浆内,阳性细胞呈散在、灶状及弥漫分布三种形式;HBV X基因在肝癌细胞中的分布呈胞浆型、核型及核浆型,阳性细胞也呈上述三种分布形式;(2)HCV C33c抗原、核心抗原在肝细胞肝癌中的阳性率为81%(133/164)及86%(141/164).C33c抗原定位于癌细胞及肝细胞的胞浆内;核心抗原既定位于癌细胞核中,又可定位于胞浆中.C33c抗原阳性细胞以灶状分布为主;而核心抗原阳性细     

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
