Summary Quantitative analysis of total and bound calcium in the egg ofOryzias latipes was performed during; the course of early development. The amount of total calcium is nearly constant. 95% of total calcium is bound with the basic substance before fertilization, but 17% becomes free within 10 minutes after fertilization. The rate of bound calcium to total calcium recovers the original value by the blastula stage. The water-soluble protein patterns obtained by paper electrophoresis consist of five anion bands. The protein of band IV increases during the early embryogenesis, while that of band I decreases relatively. There are no remarkable changes in the amount of protein in bands II, III, and V. Among three bands of thin layer chromatogram with Sephadex gel (G-200), the amount of protein of band A (more than 160,000 in molecular weight) reduces gradually after fertilization, while no marked change is observed in bands B (about 100,000 in molecular weight) and C (about 30,000 in molecular weight).The greater part of incorporated45Ca is detected in low molecular substance (less than 30,000 in molecular weight), and the rest in bands A, B, and C, respectively.  相似文献

Summary To determine the time and duration of the first and second DNA synthetic phases in fertilized egg cells and central cells of rice, a total of 753 ovules were sampled at 2 h intervals during the first 30 h after pollination and exposed to 3H-thymidine for 2 h at 25 °C. Autoradiographic observation of labeled nuclei was made for fertilized egg cells, as well as for central and antipodal cells. The first and second DNA synthetic phases in fertilized egg cells were found 8–12 h and 21–25 h after pollination, respectively. The durations of each cell-cycle phase in the egg cell were estimated to be 4–6 h for G1, 4 h vor S and for G2, and 2 h for M. In the central cell, the first DNA synthesis took place at 3–4 h after pollination, i.e., immediately after fertilization, followed by the formation of the primary endosperm nucleus. Antipodal cells also showed labeled nuclei in the early stages after fertilization. The first divisions of fertilized egg cell and primary endosperm nucleus were observed at 16–18h and at 4–6 h after pollination, respectively. The present observations suggest that sperm and egg nuclei participate in fertilization with haploid amount (1C) of DNA and fertilized egg cell originates thus in 2C state.  相似文献

The eggs of Xenopus laevis are surrounded by investment layers of egg jelly that interact with the sperm immediately prior to fertilization. Components of these egg jelly layers are necessary for the fertilization of the egg by incoming sperm. Eggs which are stripped of their jelly layers are refractile to fertilization by sperm, but the addition of solubilized jelly promotes fertilization. We have shown previously that the egg jelly layers are composed of a fibrous network of glycoconjugates which loosely hold smaller diffusible components. Extracts of these diffusible components were prepared by incubation of freshly ovulated eggs in high-salt buffers for 12 h at 4°C. This diffusible component extract, when incubated with sperm, promoted the sperm's ability to fertilize dejellied eggs in a dose-dependent manner. In contrast, the high-molecular-weight “structural” glycoconjugates of jelly that remain after extraction of the diffusible components did not increase fertilization efficiency of dejellied eggs nor did nonspecific proteins, carbohydrate polymers, or organic polymers. The diffusible components, analyzed by SDS–PAGE, consisted of a mixture of proteins from 4 to 180 kDa. The protein responsible for fertilization rescue appeared to be <50 kDa and appeared to self-aggregate or to bind to larger proteins. This protein component was required during sperm binding to the egg, its action required an intact egg vitelline envelope, and its action was independent of large soluble polymers such as Ficoll.  相似文献

Pesticides have been major contributors to environmental pollution and they are now widely distributed in aquatic environments. Zooplankters are frequently used as test animals to detect aquatic contaminants because of their sensitivity and ecological importance. We investigated the effect of a 7-day exposure to four commonly used pesticides (diazinon, fenitrothion, methoprene and isoprothiolane) on reproduction of the rotifer Brachionus plicatilis. Pesticide concentrations of 3–7 times lower than the 24-h 50% lethal concentration (24-h LC50) were tested to determine the ‚no observed effect’ concentration (NOEC), ‚lowest observed effect’ concentration (LOEC), and the ‚50% effective’ concentration (EC50) on specific growth rate (r), sexual reproduction, fertilization, resting egg production, and hatchability of resting eggs. Results showed that the lowest EC50 value of r, mixis, fertilization, and resting egg production of 1.4 μM for diazinon was 63 times lower than its 24-h LC50 of 88.4 μM, while for fenitrothion it was 66 times (3.5 and 229.8 μM, respectively). For isoprothiolane, the lowest EC50 value of r, mixis, fertilization, and resting egg production of 8.9 μM was 25 times lower than its 24-h LC50 of 220.7 μM, while for methoprene was 37 times (2.7 and 100.8 μM, respectively). In all pesticides, hatching rate of resting eggs consistently gave the lowest EC50 values which is about 2–40 times lower than the lowest EC50 of r, mixis, fertilization, and resting egg production. Hatchability of resting eggs therefore is the most sensitive parameter in detecting effects of pesticides exposure in rotifer B. plicatilis.  相似文献

Acartia tumida, a neritic copepod of the northern North Pacific Ocean and Bering Sea, is an unusually large member of its genus, adult females measuring 2.0–2.4 mm in total length. In the summers of 1986 and 1987 we investigated egg production of A. tumida in nearshore habitats of several islands in the Aleutian Island chain. A. tumida was found within protected embayments, where it could reach adult densities as high as 1000m–3. Highest egg production rates were measured at Amchitka Island (up to 86 eggs copepod–1 d–1 at 6°C), where the phytoplankton was dominated by chain-forming Thalassiosira spp. In situ egg production rates at Amchitka were more than twice as high as maximum rates measured with cultured T. weissflogii, a single cell diatom, or during blooms of chain-forming Chaetoceros spp. at Adak and Kiska Islands. Approximately 12–24 h was necessary for recent feeding to be reflected in egg production. At high food concentrations 75% of spawning occurred at night and in discrete clutches, a pattern not observed at a lower food concentration.  相似文献

Summary A third extracellular xylanase produced by Streptomyces lividans 66 was isolated from a clone obtained by shotgun cloning through functional complementation of a xylanase- and cellulase-negative mutant using the multicopy vector pIJ702. This enzyme, designated xylanase C, has a relative molecular mass of 22000 and acts on xylan similarly to xylanase B as an endo-type xylanase producing short-chain oligoxylosides. Its specific activity determined at 1100 IU·mg–1 of protein corresponds on a molecular basis to that of xylanase B and is about three times that of xylanase A. The enzyme shows optimal activity at pH 6.0 and 57°C, values that correspond closely to those observed previously for xylanase A and B. Xylanase C appears not to be glycosylated and has a pI > 10.25. Its K m and V max on birchwood xylan are 4.1 mg·ml–1 and 3.0 mol·min–1·mg–1 of enzyme respectively. Whereas specific antibodies raised against xylanase A show no cross-reaction with either xylanase B or with xylanase C, the anti-(xylanase C) antibodies react slightly with xylanase B but not with xylanase A. A comparison of hydrolysis products obtained by reacting individually the three enzymes with birchwood xylan showed characteristic endo-activity patterns for xylanases B and C, whereas xylanase A hydrolysed the substrate preferentially into xylobiose and xylotriose. Sequential xylanase action on the same substrates showed synergistic hydrolysis only when endo-xylanase activity was followed by that of xylanase A.  相似文献

Reproduction of the dominant Antarctic copepod Calanus propinquus was studied in February–April, 1989 aboard the R.V Dmitry Mendeleev during cruise N° 43 to the Weddell Sea. Single females were kept at 0 °C in the laboratory for 56 days with abundant food concentration (above 300 µg C l–1 of Platymonas viridis). Females released clutches at night at 2–3 day intervals. Most clutches contained from 10 to 40 eggs, mean 37.3 eggs female–1. Average carbon content of an egg was 0.37 ± 0.05 µg C. The maximum daily egg production rate of 30–50 eggs female–1 d–1 was observed for the first 3 days of the laboratory incubation, corresponding to 3.7–6.2% body C. The state of gonadal development of females showed the decline of the reproductive season in late February. The data suggest that egg laying in the region under study starts in December and lasts until March. The state of ovarian maturation, changes in vertical distribution and biochemical body composition of females suggest the possibility of two-year life cycle in C. propinquus in the southern Weddell Sea.  相似文献

 Various membrane-impermeable, water-soluble fluorescent tracers with different molecular weights were microinjected into the central cell of the embryo sac of Torenia fournieri Lind. before and during fertilization. Before anthesis, there was high symplastic permeability between the central cell and the egg apparatus cells. In this stage, fluorescent tracers up to 10 kDa could pass from the central cell into the egg apparatus cells, whereas those with larger molecular weight remained in the central cell. As the embryo sac matured, symplastic permeability decreased such that 2 d after anthesis only tracers less than 3 kDa could spread from the central cell into the egg cell. There appeared to be no symplastic permeability between the primary endosperm and zygote after fertilization, since tracers as small as 521 Da could not pass into the zygote in about half of the microinjected embryo sacs. This is the first report of a change in cell-to-cell communication among the cells of the female germ unit before and after fertilization.

Summary When pea seedlings lose about 5% of their water content the abscisic acid ((+)-ABA) level of the shoots increases ca. 20 times and the level of bound ABA, in all probability ABA-glucose, ca.7-10 times. After watering both ABA and bound ABA contents decrease within 24–48 h to the level in the control plants.After application of (±)-[2-14C] ABA to wilted pea shoots at the time of watering radioactive substances appear in the water-soluble, ether-insoluble fraction of ethanolic extracts and increase with time whereas radioactivity in the acidic ether fraction decreases. The neutral ether fraction remains free of radioactivity. Three radioactive zones, A, B, and C, are seen on chromatograms of the water-soluble fraction. A increases considerably within the entire experimental time, whereas B increases in the first 4–8 h after application and subsequently decreases. The third substance, C, which releases free ABA after hydrolytic treatment, does not change during the experiment. Chromatograms of the acidic ether fraction yield ABA and a substance staying at the origin, possibly phaseic acid and/or dihydrophaseic acid. Only the activity of ABA decreases during the experiment.  相似文献

Changes in total volume and volume of the yolk and perivitelline space of Pacific herring eggs were examined throughout incubation at 5°C in relation to salinity of the incubation medium (5, 20, 35 S), and after exposure to cadmium (0.05–10 ppm Cd) at 20 S. After fertilization and filling of the perivitelline space there was a decline in total egg volume in all salinities until 60–80 hr after fertilization. There followed a period of relative stability of total volume (100–240 hr), then a slow decline until hatching (240–618 hr). There was an inverse relation, between egg volume and salinity at all stages of egg development. Eggs transferred from 20 to 5 or 35 S, 87.4 hr after fertilization (90% blastodermal overgrowth of the yolk), showed only minor changes in total egg volume within the period of relative stability (100–240 hr). Prior to 80 hr, changes in egg volume appeared primarily to be simpleadjustments to prevailing osmotic and ionic conditions, modified, however, by presumed irreversible changes induced in the egg in relation to salinity experience at, and shortly after, fertilization. Subsequently, between 80–100 hr, egg volume appears to becomeregulated, commencing in the interval between late blastodermal overgrowth and blastopore closure. Yolk volume declined after fertilization, reached a minimum 40–60 hr after fertilization, increased to 100 hr, then decreased in the period of relative stability of total volume — presumably in relation to rapid growth of the embryo. In the latter period, yolk volume appeared resistant to change when eggs are transferred from 20 to 5 or 35 S, 87.4 hr, after fertilization. Volume of the perivitelline space reached a maximum after fertilization, then decreased until about 100 hr; between 100 and 240 hr it increased rapidly and was influenced only in a minor way by salinity changes in the incubation medium 87.4 hr after fertilization. Eggs exposed to cadmium in the interval between 1/2 and 30 hr after fertilization showed major reductions in total egg volume; total volume in the period of relative stability (100–240 hr) was much reduced and normal volume was not recovered after removal of such eggs to uncontaminated water at 30 hr.
Zusammenfassung Unter dem Einfluß verschiedener Salzgehalte und Cadmium-Konzentrationen wurden im Verlauf der Inkubationszeit die Volumenänderungen der Eier, des Dotters und des perivitellinen Raumes untersucht. Unmittelbar nach der Befruchtung beginnt die Bildung des perivitellinen Raumes, die bei 5 °C nach etwa 6 bis 11 h abgeschlossen ist. Dieser Vorgang erfolgt in hohen Salzgehalten schneller. Nach der anfänglichen Wasseraufnahme verringert sich das Eivolumen im Verlauf von 60 bis 80 h der Inkubations-zeit leicht, bleibt jedoch im Zeitraum zwischen 100 und 240 h nach der Befruchtung weitgehend stabil, um danach weiter geringfügig abzunehmen. Die Periode relativ stabiler Volumina fällt mit dem Einsetzen der Osmoregulation der Eier zusammen. Das Dottervolumen erreicht etwa 40–60 h nach der Befruchtung ein erstes Minimum, schwillt dann bis zu einem Embryoalter von etwa 100 h vorübergehend leicht an, um dann bis zum Schlupfzeitpunkt kontinuierlich abzunehmen. Der perivitelline Raum verändert nach der anfänglichen Wasseraufnahme sein Volumen ständig. Ein erstes Maximum wird nach 20–30 h Inkubationszeit erreicht. Das zweite Volumen-Maximum tritt nach etwa 350 h Entwicklungsdauer auf. Eine Überführung der Eier in verschiedene Salzgehalte im Embryoalter von etwa 87 h ergab keine nennenswerten volumensänderungen. Es wird daraus geschlossen, daß das Eivolumen während der Bildung des perivitellinen Raumes weitgehend festgelegt wird. Eine Exposition der Eier gegenüber Cd während der ersten 30 h der Inkubationszeit hatte in Abhängigkeit von der Konzentration eine erhebliche Volumenminderung zur Folge. Diese Reduktion der Eigröße war irreversibel.

The development of the starfish Asterina (= Patiria) pectinifera (Muller et Troschel) from fertilization to metamorphosis took 27–28 days at 22°C and a salinity of 33–33.4‰. The embryonic development was completed by the release of swimming ciliary blastula from egg envelopes 13 h after fertilization. The larvae passed into the stage of gastrula and reached the stage of dipleurula in 35 h and the stage of bipinnaria in 3.5 days. At the stage of brachiolaria, by the 12th day of development, two lateral brachioles and one medioventral brachiole with papillae developed in the larvae. The attachment disk and the primordia of five radial canals of the juvenile starfish became visible by the 15th and 18th days, respectively. By the 24th–25th day, a differentiated primordium of a juvenile starfish had developed in the brachiolaria. The size of the larvae prior to settlement was 1765.4 ± 51.5 µm. Metamorphosis was completed one day after settlement.Original Russian Text Copyright ¢ 2005 by Biologiya Morya, Kashenko.  相似文献

A method is described whereby arrays of samples ofClupea pallasi eggs may be stored during their preparation. The high fertilization potential retained by the eggs during short-term storage allows them to be fertilized synchronously when sample preparation is complete. A variation of the dry method of storage retained maximum fertilization potential (80–85%) of the eggs for about 1 hr, and of milt dilution (18 with 17 S sea water), about 7 hr. Following dry storage, eggs fertilized in salinities of 0–45 showed maximum rates of fertilization in salinities of 10–20, and fertilization rates 50% in salinities of 4.5–42. Salinities of fertilization influenced egg diameter, median hatching time, and larval length at hatching in egg samples transferred 21/2 hr after fertilization to an incubation salinity of 17 at 7°C. Fertilization rates were higher (90–95%) for eggs stored in 17 S at 7°C prior to fertilization. Under such wet storage conditions, maximum fertilization pontential was retained for about 2 hr. Highest fertilization rates (95–96%) were obtained for eggs stored and fertilized in salinities of 12–15. For the species and the area of origin considered (British Columbia), wet storage of eggs should result in maximum fertilization when the eggs are stored at 4°C for a period not greater than 2 hr prior to fertilization in the 12–15 S storage medium.Prepared under the auspices of the Canadian-German Scientific and Technical Cooperation Agreement.  相似文献

Results of numerous experiments indicate that the transient rise in intracellular Ca2+following sperm–egg fusion is essential for the subsequent events that constitute egg activation. Some events of egg activation, e.g., cortical granule exocytosis, however, appear more sensitive to intracellular Ca2+than other events, e.g., cell cycle resumption. To examine if specific events of egg activation have different thresholds for Ca2+, we manipulated buffered intracellular Ca2+concentrations by microinjecting Ca2+-BAPTA buffers and then examined the effect on the cortical granule exocytosis, recruitment of maternal mRNAs, and cell cycle resumption. We find that whereas cortical granule exocytosis occurs over a narrow threshold range of injected free Ca2+concentrations between 0.5 and 1.0 μM,recruitment of maternal mRNAs is only partially stimulated at injected free Ca2+concentrations of 2.5 μM,and no evidence for cell cycle resumption was observed (up to 2.5 μMCa2+). Although the Ca2+- and phospholipid-dependent protein kinase, protein kinase C, is implicated in aspects of egg activation, calmodulin is also a potential target for the transient increase in Ca2+that occurs following fertilization. Whereas incubation of eggs in the presence of the calmodulin antagonist W-7 followed by insemination does not block cortical granule exocytosis, cell cycle resumption, as assessed by the metaphase-to-anaphase transition, a decrease in histone H1 kinase activity and the time course for the emission of the second polar body are significantly delayed/inhibited.  相似文献

The increase of egg mass and reliable decrease of egg fertility were observed when the mass surface area of yolk (egg) increased. The results obtained suggest that, in addition to the number of viable spermatozoa penetrating across the perivitelline membrane within 15–20 min after ovulation, the probability of fertilization depends on the area of egg surface, which approximately corresponds to the area of perivitelline membrane. Apparently, the ratio of receptors numbers and spermatozoa, which contact with them on the germ disc surface, to their number on the non-germ zone decreases with the increase of yolk size. The fertility depression associated with the increased area of perivitelline membrane suggests that the egg yolk size is one of the factors of fertility of the female gametes in terms of both egg content variability and aging.  相似文献

Under laboratory conditions the development of the starfish Asterias amurensis Lütken from Vostok Bay (Sea of Japan) was studied at 14 and 17°C. At 14°C and a salinity of 31.6–32.6, ciliated coeloblastulae hatched from egg envelopes 19 h after fertilization. At this temperature the development proceeded slowly and stopped at the stage of bipinnaria. At 17°C and normal salinity of seawater, the development of A. amurensis was successful. The swimming blastula appeared in 14 h. It took 30.5 h for the embryos to reach the gastrula stage. The larvae began swimming in a horizontal position with the apical tip ahead. The dipleurula appeared at 60 h. These larvae began feeding. At 71 h after the beginning of development, the early bipinnaria has developed. In the larva, the edged ciliated band, the preoral plate, and the anal plate were already formed. At the age of 4.2 days, the larvae reached the stage of bipinnaria and the brachiolaria stage developed by 26–28 days after fertilization. The larvae had three identical brachiolar arms with attachment papillae on their tips and an attachment disk. In 37–44 days (at 17°C) the pelagic phase of A. amurensis development was completed by the attachment of larvae to the bottom plates and termination of metamorphosis. Most likely, the specificity to a substrate is not expressed in the brachiolaria of A. amurensis. They can settle on almost any hard substrate which is coated with a bacterial film. The newly settled juvenile starfish had five well-developed arms and moved using their ambulacral podia.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Biologiya Morya, Kashenko.  相似文献

Summary The behaviour of spores of Clostridium botulinum type A and proteolytic C. botulinum type B has been studied in cooked meat medium at 10°C, 12°C, 15°C, and 20°C, using mixed cultures (9 groups of in total 41 strains) and pure cultures (41 strains).At 10°C a decrease of 1–1.5 log cycles for type B and of 2–4 log cycles for type A Clostridia was observed. Neither growth nor toxin formation could be demonstrated.At 12°C spores of some strains developed and formed toxin with 3–4 weeks, whereas other strains did not develop within 7 weeks.At 15°C growth and toxin formation could be observed within 1 week, whereas at 20°C toxin was formed mostly within 2 or 3 days. Incubation at 10°C prior to incubation at 20°C seemed to have some effect on the lag time.  相似文献

Synopsis Sturgeon gametes differ from those of most fish in that the sperm possess acrosomes that undergo exocytosis and filament formation while the eggs possess numerous micropyles. Acipenser transmontanus eggs are encased by multilayered envelopes that consist of outer adhesive jelly coats and three structured layers interior to the jelly. The glycoprotein jelly layer only becomes adhesive upon exposure to freshwater. The layer interior to the jelly, layer 3, is the other carbohydrate-containing component of the egg envelope. This layer consists of a water-insoluble glycoprotein that, upon freshwater exposure, is hydrolyzed by a trypsinlike protease to yield a water-soluble, lower molecular weight carbohydrate-containing component. This component can be identified in the surrounding medium when unfertilized eggs are incubated in freshwater. This egg water component elicits acrosome reactions only in homologous sperm. The A. transmontanus sperm acrosome reaction is a Ca++ and/or Mg++ dependent event that includes the formation of a 10 μ long fertilization filament. A. transmontanus fertilization can occur at low sperm per egg ratios; however, crossfertilization of A. transmontanus eggs with lake sturgeon, A. fluvescens, sperm results in a very low number of fertilized eggs, even at high sperm per egg ratios. The morphological, physiological, and biochemical phenomenon reviewed in this paper are related to the environment in which they occur. Also, the possible role of the acrosome and the presence of numerous micropyles are discussed.  相似文献

Two pepsins (A and B) were purified from the stomach of pectoral rattail (Coryphaenoides pectoralis) by acidification, ammonium sulfate precipitation, gel filtration chromatography and anion exchange chromatography to obtain a single band on native-PAGE and SDS-PAGE. The purities of pepsin A and B were increased to 7.1- and 13.0-fold with approximately 5.7% and 2.2% yield, respectively. Pepsin A and B had the apparent molecular weights of 35 and 31 kDa, respectively, when analyzed using SDS-PAGE and Sephacryl S-200 gel filtration. Pepsin A and B showed maximal activity at pH 3.0 and 3.5, respectively, and had the same optimal temperature at 45 °C using hemoglobin as a substrate. Both pepsin A and B were stable in the pH range of 2.0–6.0 but were unstable at the temperatures greater than 40 °C. Activity of both pepsins was inhibited by pepstatin A and was activated by divalent cations, indicating pepsin characteristics. Activities of both pepsins continuously decreased as NaCl concentration increased (0–30%). The enzymes had high affinity and activity toward hemoglobin with Km and Kcat values of 98–152 μM and 32–50 S− 1, respectively. Purified pepsins generally showed the similar characteristics to other fish pepsins.  相似文献

A full-size cDNA clone (1614 bp) encoding calreticulin was isolated from a PCR-based cDNA library of maize in vitro zygotes. Calreticulin is a major Ca2+ storage protein located mainly in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum but also in the nucleus and/or cytoplasm of some cells. A differential screening between cDNA libraries originating from 104 in vitro zygotes (18 h after in vitro fertilization) and 128 unfertilized egg cells was performed to isolated newly expressed genes or genes expressed more abundantly after fertilization. The expression of the isolated cDNA clone is enhanced after fertilization and strongly correlated to cell division. Sequence comparison to a shorter maize calreticulin cDNA isolated from a conventional cDNA library proves the ability and reproducibility of the recently described method for PCR based cDNA library construction from a few plant cells [12]. It is further shown that calreticulins in maize are probably transcribed from a small gene family differentially expressed in abundance in diverse tissues. The deduced amino acid sequence encodes an acidic protein (pI 4.17) of 48 kDa sharing 77–92% and 50–54% homology to other plant and animal calreticulins, respectively. The described calreticulin gene represents to our knowledge the first cDNA clone isolated from a RT/PCR cDNA library originating from only a few plant cells and is the first gene isolated from zygotes of higher plants.  相似文献

The chloroplast gene encoding ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate-carboxylase (rbcL) was sequenced for phylogenetic analysis of 13 species (10 genera) in the tribePolygonatae s.l. of theLiliaceae-Asparagoideae. The data were analysed using maximum parsimony and neighbour-joining methods. There were 233 phylogenetically informative sites out of 1368 base pairs compared. The results suggest that there are three monophyletic groups withinPolygonatae s.l. with high bootstrap confidence values. Group A representsPolygonatae s.str., with generaMaianthemum, Smilacina, Convallaria, Disporopsis, andPolygonatum. Group B containsUvularia andDisporum and group C includesStreptopus, Tricyrtis, Clintonia, andProsartes. The study suggests thatPolygonatae s.l. are not a monophyletic group, including at least three groups of different phylogenetic origin. Monophyly of the taxa within groups A, B, and C is supported by the high bootstrap confidence values (85–100%) of the bootstrap replications for both parsimony and neighbour-joining methods. The differences between each group (calculated as 100x base substitutions per site) were 6.99–9.03 for group A and B, 4.92–7.35 for A and C, and 6.66–7.57 for B and C.  相似文献
