上海郊区狗獾活动规律的初步研究

2007年1月～2008年1月在上海郊区奉贤,通过红外监视仪埘狗獾Meles meles活动规律进行了研究.结果表明,狗獾晚间出洞活动,出洞时间集中在19:00～22:00,该时间段出洞次数占总次数的72.7%.返回洞穴的时间集中在凌晨2:00-4:00,该时间段回洞次数占总数的84.5%.狗獾每晚在洞外活动持续时间平均6 h.季节间的活动持续时间存在显著差异,其巾秋季活动持续时间最长达8.23 h,冬季活动持续时间最短为3.11 h.上海郊区生活的狗獾无冬眠行为.     

狗獾夜间活动节律是受人类活动影响而形成的吗?基于青海湖地区的研究实例

青海湖地区是目前已知的狗獾分布海拔最高点。为了解狗獾在青藏高原严酷生态环境下的生活史特点, 并验证是否人类干扰造成了狗獾夜行性的假说, 我们利用红外相机技术, 结合无线电遥测和野外调查研究了青海湖湖东地区亚洲狗獾(Meles leucurus)的种群密度、洞穴口的行为及活动节律。结果表明: (1)研究地区狗獾的平均种群密度为1.2 ± 0.6只/km², 其分布受食物丰富度的影响; (2)狗獾基本在夜间活动, 出洞时间集中在20:00-23:00之间, 而回洞时间则集中在清晨4:00-7:00之间, 23:00-4:00之间是狗獾的活动高峰; (3)狗獾离洞前行为主要是警戒行为, 回洞穴时的行为主要是嬉戏行为, 其他行为较少见, 表达具有特定的时间性; (4)人类活动对于狗獾活动没有显著性影响(P < 0.05)。     

重引入狗獾秋冬季行为的初步研究

2010年11月至2011年2月在上海奉贤申亚生态园内,对从山东重引入的狗獾(Meles meles)在围栏内进行了秋冬季行为的初步研究。结果表明,重引入狗獾在冬季活动时间低,取食食物以肉类饲料为主,平均2～4 d出洞活动一次,受温度影响大。研究表明,重引入狗獾能适应人工饲养并顺利越冬。     

重引入狗獾释放后定居巢的生境特征

2014年4月—2016年3月,对上海郊区释放的狗獾所建立的洞巢进行了调查。结果表明:异地引入的狗獾在大规模城市化的上海郊区仍能找到合适的栖息地,并能很好地适应野外的自然环境。生境特征分析显示:释放后的狗獾喜好在有地下空间、地势较高的竹林、靠近水源、远离公路的生境中营巢定居;在乔木密度高、草本长势好、远离公路的生境中觅食。狗獾食源地调查显示:上海郊区狗獾冬季主要食物是蚯蚓和土壤昆虫,其主要来源依次为:果林、落叶阔叶林、针叶林、竹林、常绿阔叶林。在上海郊区,重引入狗獾释放成功须满足5个条件:可利用的地下空间,地势较高长势好的竹林,成熟的果林、落叶阔叶林、针叶林提供食物,充足的水源以及避免人为干扰。     

青海湖地区狗獾分类地位和狗獾属进化历史探讨

本研究选择线粒体细胞色素b (cytochrome b, Cyt b)和控制区(control region, CR)片段作为分子标记, 探讨了青海湖地区狗獾(Meles sp.)的系统发育地位和狗獾属分歧时间。研究结果支持目前将狗獾属分为4个种的结论。Cyt b和CR片段序列拼接后总长1,652 bp, 23条序列共定义了21个单倍型。研究结果表明欧亚大陆狗獾分为东西两个支系, 每个支系进一步分为两个种: 东部支系包括亚洲狗獾(M. leucurus)和日本狗獾(M. anakuma); 西部支系包括欧洲狗獾(M. meles)和西南亚狗獾(M. canescens)。贝叶斯树和单倍型网络关系图都支持青海湖地区狗獾属于亚洲狗獾。分歧时间的估算结果与古生物学证据相符, 东部支系和西部支系在2.24 Ma左右产生分歧, 西南亚狗獾在1.27 Ma左右从欧洲狗獾分出, 而日本狗獾和亚洲狗獾的分化时间为0.99 Ma左右。     

盐城保护区狗獾洞巢的初步研究

本文对苏北盐城保护区６个狗獾洞巢进行了初步研究。结果表明：每个洞巢平均有１２．７个洞口组成,占地面积平均为１９２．１ｍ２。洞径的平均大小为２５．８（±８．１）×３２．３（±１１．８）ｃｍ。洞道口可分为斜向型、垂直型和水平型,分别占总洞口的７７．６％、１１．８％和１０．５％。每个洞巢动物经常用来进出的洞口２～３个,占总洞口数的１９．７％,废弃的洞口占总数的５５．３％,另有２５％洞口偶而使用。狗獾极其敏感,一旦常用洞口有异物即放弃使用,另掘新洞口     

对“我对不正确的昆虫学术语应予纠正,的意见”的意见

<正> 林伯欣同志对我在《昆虫知识》1981年3期写的“不正确的昆虫学术语应予纠正”一文的一部分提出异议(见本刊1981(6):封三),在此我表示诚挚的欢迎,希望通过讨论,能把问题弄清楚。林同志认为将“普通昆虫学”、“农业昆虫学”(按:我的原文并无“学”字)简称为“普昆”、“农昆”是对的,“不必纠正”。论点之一是:“古书‘昆’字写作‘(虫虫)’,也就是‘昆’字中包含有‘虫’字”了:论点之二是:“《夏小正》解释有‘昆’,小虫也’”。 我认为这两个论点是欠妥的。 因为一、古文“(虫虫)”,是包含两个“虫”字,但这“虫”     

狗獾秋季对生境的选择——以黑龙江省方正林业局为例

在黑龙江省方正林业局新风林场利用痕迹检验法和洞穴辨别法对狗獾秋季生境选择进行研究。通过在选定的15个林班的23条样线进行调查,共测定了106个利用样方和106个对照样方的19种生态因子。结果表明,狗獾秋季利用样方和对照样方在优势乔木、坡向、灌木密度和灌木高度4种生态因子上差异极显著(P0.001),在灌木距离上差异显著(P0.05),其余的生态因子无显著差异(P0.05),相对于对照样方而言,狗獾秋季更偏爱选择位于阳坡,优势乔木为紫椴和黄菠萝,灌木密度大、高度高、距离近的生境。在典则系数的直方图上可以看出秋季狗獾的利用样方与对照样方存在一定的重叠,但是Wilk’sλ值显示秋季狗獾的利用样方与对照样方具有较高的差异性(Wilk’sλ=0.507,χ2=141.524,df=3,P0.001),较高比例的(84.0%)正确判别率也支持了这种差异性。逐步判别分析表明在区分秋季狗獾的利用样方与对照样方方面有3个生态因子发挥作用,依照贡献值的大小依次为:郁闭度、灌木密度和植被盖度。     

笼养狗獾东北亚种繁殖规律

2013年3~10月,使用红外监控设备对哈尔滨市松北区某狗獾养殖场的24只笼养东北亚种狗獾(Meles meles amurensis)的繁殖行为进行全天候观察记录。狗獾3月末至5月初交配,翌年3月末至4月初产仔,妊娠期长达11~12个月。以往国内文献报道狗獾交配时间主要分布于7~8月,这种交配时间的变化表明其延迟着床的时间可能也存在较大变化。对交配期内全天各时段交配频次的观察发现,交配可在全天任一时间段发生,昼、夜差异不大。交配时长10~110 min,多数交配的时长为60~80 min。观察还发现,狗獾交配期内交配频次和时长具有明显的周期性变化。     

"蚍蜉"非"匹夫"

你们好,我是《化石》这本书的小读,叫张野青,家住牛庄高中家属楼,在牛庄镇南关小学六年级一班读书,我觉得这本书很好。但我在2004年第一期上发现了错误,在《曾霸世界的巨鬣狗》这篇章中有一句话：‘与大象相争如匹夫撼树’中的‘匹夫’两字写错了,应该是‘蚍蜉’两字,这两字是当大蚂蚁讲的,意思是比喻力量很小而想动摇强大的事物,自不量力。这些也是我从字典中得到的,我想是原错了,应该改正。     

合成洗涤剂对人和哺乳动物细胞的诱变性研究

各种合成洗涤剂(洗衣粉,洗发膏,餐具洗涤剂等)产量日增。在日常生活中使用越来越普遍。洗涤剂直接或间接通过环境污染对人类健康产生影响,特别是潜在的致突变性引起公众的普遍注意。而现有的研究结果并不一致。本研究选用三种型号的合成洗涤剂,以小鼠生殖细胞染色体畸变和骨髓细胞微核率及离体的人类细胞和中国仓鼠细胞的染色体畸变和姐妹染色单体交换(SCE)为测定指标,系统地对合成洗涤剂的诱变活     

TURNOVER OF PHOSPHATIDYLCHOLINE IN MICROSOMES AND MYELIN IN BRAINS OF YOUNG AND ADULT RATS

We have tested the hypothesis that the turnover of phosphatidylcholine in subcellular fractions of rat brain is a function of the age at which this lipid is deposited. Rats, 60 days of age, were injected intracranially with [2-³H]glycerol and either [methyl-¹⁴C]choline (to label the base moiety) or [U-¹⁴C]glucose (to label acyl moieties). Littermates were killed up to 90 days after injection and brain microsomes and myelin isolated. Lipids were extracted and the phosphatidylcholine was isolated by 2-dimensional TLC and hydrolyzed to its constituent moieties. The ³H in the glycerol backbone and ¹⁴C in the choline or acyl residues was quantitated. The microsomal and myelin ³H/¹⁴C ratios decreased with time with either set of precursors, indicating that labeled choline and acyl moieties were reutilized more efficiently than the glycerol backbone. The various precursors exhibited first order decay curves with half-lives for the glycerol backbone of 6 and 11 days for the microsomal and myelin fractions respectively. These results contrast with those previously obtained with identical experimental procedures when 17-day-old animals were injected. In that study, although much of the phosphatidylcholine turned over rapidly as for the older animals, by 2 weeks after injection most of the remaining phosphatidylcholine was turning over more slowly with a half-life of 13 and 25 days for microsomes and myelin respectively (Miller et al., 1977). The base and acyl moieties also had a corresponding shorter half-life in older animals relative to the slow turnover phase in younger rats.     

武汉东湖沉积物和沉积物间隙水中氮和磷的含量及其分布

武汉东湖的沉积物中氮(N)的平均含量上层(0—10厘米)为14．2毫克／克(干重,下同),下层(10-40厘米)为12．0毫克／克。磷(P)的平均含量上层为0．87毫克／克,下层为0.62毫克／克。沉积物中氮和磷的含量均有明显的垂直和平面分布上的差异,上层高于下层,水果湖区高于其它湖区。沉积物间隙水中总溶解氮的浓度高,平均为儿．52毫克／升,主要以氨氮的形态存在,占总溶解氮的61．3％。总溶解磷的浓度较低,平均为0．113毫克／升,其中正磷酸盐占55.8％。间隙水中氮和磷的浓度均有明显的季节变动,夏季和秋季的浓度高,冬季和春季浓度低。除氨氮外,间隙水中氮和磷的浓度比底层湖水中氮和磷的浓度高,但一般不超过5倍,表明沉积物和湖水之间溶解的营养物质交换十分强烈。     

VASCULAR SUPPLY AND STRUCTURE OF THE OVULE AND ARIL IN PEONY AND OF THE ARIL IN NUTMEG

Camp , Wendell H., and Mary M. Hubbard . (U. Connecticut, Storrs.) Vascular supply and structure of the ovule and aril in peony and of the aril in nutmeg. Amer. Jour. Bot. 50(2): 174–178. Illus. 1963.—Examination of the placental region in the carpel of Paeonia indicates a complexity and super-abundance of vascular supply beyond that usually found in angiosperms and certainly more than is necessary for adequate nutrition and water supply of the ovules. From this it is concluded that the ovules once were borne on a larger and more complex structure than the present carpel. Vascular strands leading to the aril and the hypostase are interpreted as being relictual. The large multifid aril of Myristica has a well-developed vascular system composed of several sizes of branched bundles.     

DEVELOPMENTAL CHANGES IN LEVELS AND FORMS OF CHOLINESTERASES IN MUSCLES OF NORMAL AND DYSTROPHIC CHICKENS

Abstract— Acetylcholinesterase (AChE) and pseudocholinesterase (°ChE) were studied in vivo and during the first several months of development of pectoral and posterior latissimi dorsi (PLD) muscles in normal and dystrophic chickens. Muscle extracts were prepared in a high ionic strength-nonionic detergent medium in the presence of protease inhibitors, in order to obtain complete solubilization and to prevent degradation of intrinsic molecular forms of both enzymes. In both normal and dystrophic pectoral muscles levels of AChE and °ChE increase rapidly in vivo, °ChE accounting for 5–10% of total cholinesterase activity. In the normal pectoral muscle the concentration of both enzymes drops rapidly after hatching with increasing muscle mass; total AChE per muscle remains relatively constant for 30 days post-hatch. In the dystrophic pectoral muscle both AChE and °ChE accumulate after hatching, resulting in greatly elevated levels (approx 10–25-fold) of both enzymes throughout the period studied. Multiple molecular forms of AChE and °ChE are observed in the pectoral muscle by sucrose gradient centrifugation. Four principal forms are distinguished: two light (L₁, L₂), one medium (M), and one heavy (H₂). The °ChE forms are 0.5–1.0 S units lighter than the corresponding AChE forms. L₂ is the predominant light form of AChE, whereas L₁ is the major light °ChE form detected. The lighter forms of AChE predominate in normal and dystrophic embryonic pectoral muscle at day 14, being replaced by the H₂ form by day 19. H₂ is the major °ChE form detected at day 19. After hatching, H₂ AChE is the predominant form found in both of the normal muscles studied. In the dystrophic pectoral muscle, progressive accumulation of the L₂ form of AChE is detected as early as day 4 post-hatch; this form eventually becomes predominant, although the heavier forms are also elevated. In PLD muscle the same phenomenon occurs, but with a slower time course. In dystrophic pectoral muscle a similar rise in the L₁ form of °ChE is first observed by day 4, with heavier forms also elevated in the mature muscle. Thus the alteration in the control of these two enzymes in dystrophic fast-twitch muscles results in an accumulation of the light forms of AChE and °ChE.     

大鼠颌下腺促性腺激素释放激素及其mRNA的免疫组织化学与原位杂交研究

用免疫组织化学及原位杂交法,研究了促性腺激素释放激素及其ｍＲＮＡ在大鼠颌下腺的分布。结果显示,大鼠颌下腺的浆液性腺泡的上皮细胞,各级导管的上皮细胞及副交感神经节细胞均呈促性腺激素释放激素免疫反应阳性,阳性反应物质分布在胞质,胞核呈阴性反应。颌下腺的浆液性腺泡上皮细胞,各级导管上皮细胞同样被检测到很强的促性腺激素释放激素ｍＲＮＡ杂交信号。以上结果提示,大鼠颌下腺能自身合成促性腺激素释放激素,促性腺激素释放激素对消化功能可能有重要调节作用。
