Summary The timing mechanism underlying ultradian (2–3 h) activity patterns in the common vole, Microtus arvalis, was studied using behavioural deprivation experiments. These were aimed at distinguishing between a homeostatic control mechanism, in which the rhythmic behaviour itself is part of the causal loop, and a clock mechanism, independent of the behaviour.In 175 experiments, deprivation of food during 3 ultradian cycles in (subjective) daytime did not result in significant changes in the ultradian periodicity of attempts to obtain the food, compared with ad lib. access to food and water. A minor, but significant increase in ultradian activity time () occurred in the course of the deprivation, but this was compensated by a shorter ultradian rest (). These results were obtained both in intact animals (n = 24), which showed ultradian and circadian rhythmicity in behaviour, and in animals (n = 21) with electrolytic lesions aimed at the suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN), which lacked the circadian modulation of behaviour. Simultaneous deprivation of water and food in 8 voles without circadian rhythmicity during 40 experiments also did not lead to any change in the ultradian periodicity of feeding attempts.Rest deprivation was studied in 5 SCN lesioned voles, by forcing running wheel activity to continue following spontaneous running. Thus, the experimental activity bout was artificially lengthened to 2–9 h in 67 experiments. The onset of the subsequent rest episodes occurred independent of the duration of the preceding . The duration of was dependent on the preceding, experimental in a periodic fashion. The interval experimental (=lengthened +following ) was equal to one, two or three times the control (obtained on nonexperimental days). This result fits the prediction of a clock model and is in conflict with a monotonicincrease of with , as expected in a homeostatic, restorative process.It is concluded that the ultradian timing of activity in the common vole can be explained neither by homeostatic hunger or thirst mechanisms nor by homeostatic rest/activity regulation. The results strongly suggest an independent clock system generating ultradian feeding rhythms in the common vole.Abbreviations

Petrobia harti (Ewing) diapauses in the egg stage. Adult females lay either diapause or nondiapause eggs. On the University of Thessaloniki campus (41°N), the mite was found to develop on leaves ofOxalis corniculata L. throughout the year, while no mites were found on leaves ofOxalis articulata Savigny growing in the same area. In the laboratory the mite could be maintained equally well on detached leaves of both plant species, kept on wet cotton-wool.Forty to 90% females laying diapause eggs (dlf) were produced when the mites developed under LD 1212 and 19±1 °C, or LD 168 and 19±1 °C or 25±1 °C on leaves ofO. articulata detached from plants grown in the open in various seasons. Under the same conditions, a very low to zero percentage ofdlf was produced onO. corniculata. By rearing certain feeding stages on one of these twoOxalis hosts, and the other feeding stages on the other host, various percentages ofdlf were obtained. These percentages were the net effect of the antagonistic action of the twoOxalis species.By rearing the mites at LD 8.515.5, LD 1212 or LD 168 and a temperature of 19±1 °C onO. articulata leaves renewed every 3 days, or every 16–18 days, or not at all, it could be shown that diapause induction or aversion is caused by the direct effect of photoperiod on the mites, and not by an effect through the host leaves.When wholeO. articulata plants were grown under LD 168 and 19±1 °C in the laboratory, or developed in the open during April and May, flowers were produced, while under LD 1212 no flowering occurred. In the laboratory under diapause-inducing conditions, higher percentages ofdlf were produced on leaves detached from flowering plants than on leaves detached from plants not flowering.OnO. articulata leaves at 20 °C, photoperiods with photophases equal to or longer than 12 h induced from 70 to 80%dlf, while photoperiods with photophases equal to or shorter than 10.9 h induced very low to zero percentages. By transferring different chrysalis stages from a diapause-inducing (LD 1212) to a diapause-averting (LD 8.515.5) photoperiod, and vice versa, it was found that the nymphochrysalis through deutonymph stages were sensitive to photoperiod, the deutochrysalis and deutonymph being the most sensitive.Under an LD 1212 photoperiod, a temperature of 20 °C induced diapause, whereas 25 °C, 30 °C, or a daynight thermoperiod of 25 °C18 °C suppressed it. 相似文献

Summary Synaptic ribbons (SR) in pinealocytes of adult (120–130 day-old) male Chinese hamsters (Cricetulus griseus) were classified into types 1, 2 and 3; these have a central dense structure showing rod-like, various and ringlike profiles, respectively. The central structure of the type-2 SR usually appeared as round, oval or comma-like bodies, and occasionally as plates showing various profiles or clubshaped bodies. The quantity of each type of SR, expressed as the SR index, was determined over a 24-h period under a light/dark regime (LD) 1212 or LD 1410. On comparing the results obtained from adults with previously published data from young (60–70-days-old) animals under LD 1212, it was found that, in both young and adult animals, the type-1 and type-3 SR indices exhibited different 24-h variations, whereas the type-2 SR index remained constant over a 24-h period. In addition, the indices of the type-2 SR, but not those of the other SR types, were found to be significantly larger in adult than in young animals. In adult animals, the effects of the photoperiod were different between the three types of SR. A nocturnal increase in the type-1 SR index was observed under both LD 1212 and LD 1410, its time course being different for each of these photoperiods. Under LD 1410, the type-2 SR index showed a significant 24-h rhythm with larger values during the dark period; this was not observed under LD 1212. The type-3 SR index was almost the same under LD 1212 and LD 1410. The results suggest that pinealocyte SR of the Chinese hamster may be composed of three types of SR, each with a different functional role. 相似文献

Summary Hydroxylamine, a potent oxidizing agent used to reverse carbethoxylation of histidine by diethylpyrocarbonate, activated Cl-dependent K flux (KCl cotransport) of low K sheep red blood cells almost sixfold. When KCl cotransport was already stimulated by N-ethylmaleimide, hydroxylamine caused an additional twofold activation suggesting modification of sites different from those thiol alkylated. This conclusion was supported by the finding that hydroxylamine additively augmented also the diamide-induced KCl flux (Lauf, P.K. 1988.J. Membrane Biol.
101:179–188) with dithiothreitol fully reversing the diamide but not the hydroxylamine effect. Stimulation of KCl cotransport by hydroxylamine was completely inhibited by treatment with diethylpyrocarbonate also known to prevent KCl cotransport stimulation by N-ethylmaleimide, both effects being independent of the order of addition. Hence, although the effect of carbethoxy modification on KCl flux cannot be reversed by hydroxylamine and thus excludes histidine as the target for diethylpyrocarbonate, our finding reveals an important chemical determinant of KCl cotransport stimulation by both hydroxylamine oxidation and thiol group alkylation. 相似文献

Summary The simplest possible model of the sex determination process adding autosomal influence to a minimal number of sex chromosomes was developed to explain matings of Tilapia (Sarotherodon) species. Eighteen different genotypes, each having two autosomes (AA, Aa, or aa) and two sex chromosomes (WX, WY, WW, XY, XX or YY) involved in sex determination, are predicted by the theory. Their sex (10 males and 8 females) were determined using a series of directed graphs, showing the relative strength of the chromosome pairs, developed on the basis of Chen's sex ratio results (Chen 1969). This theoretical model predicts eight different sex ratios (01, 13, 35, 11, 97, 53, 31, 10 ); three of them are not predicted by the WXYZ theory. The greatest part of these sex ratios have been obtained experimentally in extensive series of crosses between related species of Tilapia and their hybrids, carried out by several authors. The theory succeeds in explaining all of Chen's results, including those ratios 53 and 01 seen in certain crosses but not predicted by the WXYZ theory. The importance of the autosomes is seen in comparisons of the genotype pairs (AaWY, aaWY), (AaXY, aaXY) and (AAWW, AaWW) in which the first genotype in each case is male while the second is female as proven by the sex ratio results. The members of the pair differ only in the substitution of one autosome for the other. To test the theory, experiments consisting of hormonal sex reversion and a series of crosses are proposed. Finally, theoretical and practical implications of the theory are discussed. 相似文献

Composition of cellular fatty acids was determined for strains of fastidious, Gramnegative, xylem-limited bacteria causing or associated with Pierce's disease of grapevine, phony disease of peach, plum leaf scorch, stunt of ragweed, elm leaf scorch, and periwinkle wilt. The most abundant fatty acids were straight-chain 150, 160, 170, and 180, unsaturated 161, 181, and unsaturated 17-and 19=carbon homologs. Minor fatty acids included straightchain 120, 140, 190, and 200; an unsaturated 15-carbon homolog; hydroxy-substituted 2-OH 120, 3-OH 120, and 3-OH 140; and branched chain iso-140 and iso-200. Cyclopropane acids were not detected. Physiological age had no effect on fatty acid composition. Class analysis of data indicated relative uniformity within the group. Saturated even-carbon chains comprised 31%–42%, unsaturated acids 41%–52%, saturated odd-carbon chains 10%–18%, hydroxysubstituted chains 2%–7%, and branched-chains 1%–4% of total fatty acids. The ratio of saturated-unsaturated acids ranged from 0.8 to 1.2. 相似文献

Summary Djungarian hamsters (Phodopus sungorus), were exposed to constant light with increasing intensities (20, 60, 350 lux), and wheel running activity was recorded. With increasing light intensity the percentage of hamsters showing a split in their daily activity pattern increased and the free running period was lengthened for both the unsplit and the split state. The fact that the free running period of both states depended on the light intensity together with the observation that the highest incidence of acircadian activity occurred under 350 lux, provoked the idea that the emergence of splitting or acircadian rhythmicity is a direct consequence of the light induced lengthening of the free running period. However, analysis of the data failed to support the idea that emergence of a split or acircadian activity is a threshold phenomenon with respect to the free running period.Due to differences in circadian function some Djungarian hamsters do not exhibit photoinduction following short day exposure. In these individuals splitting also occurred but required exposure to a higher light intensity than in photo-responsive hamsters. This observation is in accordance with the idea that the two phenotypes differ in the interaction of the two component oscillators underlying circadian rhythmicity.Abbreviations

Summary
Drosophila melanogaster is able to perform osmotropotaxis under open-loop conditions. With an optimal stimulus the average turning tendency to the side of higher concentration corresponds to a circular track with radiusr=0.8 cm. The response amplitude does not decrease within 1 or 2 h. Unilaterally antennectomized flies in an homogeneous odor field show a permanent turning tendency towards their intact side.The smallest concentration ratio to elicit osmotropotaxis in normal flies ranges between 610 and 910 at high and between 210 and 510 at an about 50 times lower odor intensity. No negative tropotaxis (i.e. turning to the side of lower concentration) is observed, even with strong repellents. 相似文献

Summary In nondiapause adults raised under a long-day photoperiod, the critical daylength for diapause induction was between 13 and 14 h although some individuals did not respond to the short-day photoperiod and went on laying eggs. In postdiapause adults in which LD 1311 induced the first diapause (L13 insects), the critical daylength for diapause reinduction was between 13 and 14 h, whereas it was between 12 and 13 h in postdiapause adults in which LD 1014 induced the first diapause (L10 insects). Under LD 1311, a small proportion of L10 insects went into the second diapause after great delay as compared with L13 insects. Under LD 1014, on the other hand, L10 insects went into the second diapause more rapidly than L13 insects. Therefore, the photoperiod which had induced the first diapause affected the photoperiodic induction of the second diapause not only in the critical daylength but also in the speed of response. In Riptortus clavatus, the photoperiodic history influences the subsequent photoperiodic response even after a physiological state induced by the previous photoperiod was terminated completely.Abbreviations

In flowers of Hoya carnosa R. Br. the nocturnal emission of fragrance occurs according to an endogenous circadian rhythmicity. This was demonstrated by the continuation of rhythmical emission for two to three cycles under conditions of permanent illumination. The free-running period was approx. 29 h under these conditions. The inversion of light/dark cycles caused the entrainment of the next peak of emission by approx. 12 h whether the inversion was started with a light period or a with dark period prolonged for 12 h. When only the flower used for fragrance analysis was subjected to an inverted photoperiod, the rest of the plant remaining under the original light/dark cycle, the synchronization of fragrance emission occurred according to the Zeitgeber perceived by the individual flower. 相似文献

Daily variation in the body temperature of the green iguana (Iguana iguana) was studied by telemetry in laboratory photo-thermal enclosures under a 12Light12Dark (LD) photoperiod. The lizards showed robust daily rhythms of thermoregulation maintaining their body temperatures (Tb) at higher levels during the day than during the night. Some animals maintained rhythmicity when kept in constant darkness. On lightdark cycles parietalectomy produced only a transient increase of median Tb in the first or second night following the operation. Pinealectomized lizards on the other hand maintained their body temperatures at significantly lower levels during the day and at significantly higher levels during the night than did sham-operated or intact lizards. This effect was apparently permanent, since one month after pinealectomy lizards still displayed the altered pattern. Plasma melatonin levels in intact animals were high during the night and low during the day and were unaffected by parietalectomy. Pinealectomized lizards showed low levels of plasma melatonin during both the day and the night. A daily intraperitoneal injection of melatonin in pinealectomized animals given a few minutes after the light to dark transition decreased the body temperatures selected by the lizards during the night and increased the body temperatures selected during the following day. Control injections of saline solution had no effect. The significance of these results is discussed in relation to the role of the pineal complex and melatonin in the mediation of thermoregulatory behavior.Abbreviations

Comparative mapping in F2∶3 and F6∶7 generations of quantitative trait loci for grain yield and yield components in maize 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8

This study was conducted to compare maize quantitative trait loci (QTL) detection for grain yield and yield components in F23 and F67 recombinant inbred (RI) lines from the same population. One hundred and eighty-six F67 RIs from a Mo17×H99 population were grown in a replicated field experiment and analyzed at 101 loci detected by restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs). Single-factor analysis of variance was conducted for each locus-trait combination to identify QTL. For grain yield, 6 QTL were detected accounting for 22% of the phenotypic variation. A total of 63 QTL were identified for the seven grain yield components with alleles from both parents contributing to increased trait values. Several genetic regions were associated with more than one trait, indicating possible linked and/or pleiotropic effects. In a comparison with 150 F23 lines from the same population, the same genetic regions and parental effects were detected across generations despite being evaluated under diverse environmental conditions. Some of the QTL detected in the F23 seem to be dissected into multiple, linked QTL in the F67 generation, indicating better genetic resolution for QTL detection with RIs. Also, genetic effects at QTL are smaller in the F67 generation for all traits.Abbreviations

Summary Several properties of vertebrate circadian rhythms can be attributed to the behavior of an underlying pacemaker system which is composed of two separate but mutually interacting circadian oscillators. As originally formulated, the model for such a pacemaker system proposed that two oscillators or populations of oscillators have different properties, specifically in their responses to light (Pittendrigh 1974; Pittendrigh and Daan 1976b). We have tested the proposition that the right and left suprachiasmatic nuclei (SCN) of the golden hamster contribute in different ways to the regulation of circadian rhythmicity by measuring the wheel-running activity rhythms of hamsters with lesions to either the right or left SCN. Although effects of unilateral or other partial SCN lesions on pacemaker properties were observed, these effects were not different in hamsters receiving right- or left-side lesions. More specifically: (1) free-running period () in constant light was shorter in lesioned hamsters irrespective of the side lesioned (Fig. 3a), and the total amount of SCN destruction was found to correlate with (Fig. 4). (2) Phase-angle difference () of some lesioned hamsters (both right- and left-side) during entrainment to LD, 1410 was significantly more positive than that of controls (Fig. 3b). (3) The rate of phase-shift following a shift of the light/dark cycle was not different in hamsters with right- or left-side lesions (Fig. 3c). And (4) the simultaneous expression of different circadian periods, similar to splitting, was observed in hamsters with unilateral lesions (Fig. 5). It is concluded that the right and left SCN are similar in their contributions to the control of circadian rhythmicity and that there is as yet no evidence for the permanent loss of multioscillator properties resulting from the destruction of only one of the two SCN.Abbreviations

Maximisation of reproductive success by European orchidaceae under conditions of infrequent pollination 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Summary The pollination biology of a group of European orchids (Dactylorhiza, Ophrys, Orchis, Platanthera, Goodyera, andSerapias species) are investigated, and their anthecological characteristics considered in relation to natural levels of reproductive success. Pollen ovule (P O) ratios of the European orchids surveyed range from 10 1 (Goodyera repens) to 24 1 (Platanthera chlorantha). Average pollen-load ovule ratios are consistently lower than P O ratios. Naturally occurring pollen loads range from 1 massula to >1 pollinium. Even the smallest pollen load is sufficient to stimulate embryogenesis in experimentally pollinatedDactylorhiza purpurella flowers, although more seeds are set with larger loads. Pollen tubes grow rapidly through the stylar canal and into the top of the ovary within 2 or 3 days of pollination, and grow down either side of the 3 parietal ridges in the ovary. Fertilisation occurs throughout the length of the ovary but its distribution is non-random, especially when pollen loads are limiting, with more seeds being set at the stylar end. All species ofDactylorhiza, Ophrys, andOrchis studied are highly self-compatible. In the absence of pollination,Ophrys andOrchis flowers remain open and fertile for at least 3 weeks. Pollinated flowers remain receptive to further pollinations for at least 8 days. Some fruits can even be obtained on selfing 20-day-old unpollinatedOrchis morio flowers. Excised pollinia retain germinability for a long time, up to 51 days inDactylorhiza purpurella. The arrival of pollen on the stigma hastens floral senescence, but post-pollination changes are relatively slow when compared with those reported for tropical orchid species. It is concluded that characteristics of the pollination biology of European orchids act to maximise reproductive success by (1) prolonging the opportunity for effective pollen deposition both pre- and post-pollination, (2) increasing the likelihood of widespread dispersal, (3) reducing pollen wastage, and (4) increasing seed quality by promoting some pollen competition. As most European orchids are xenogamous and require pollen to arrive on the stigma before seed can be set, reproductive maximisation is of particular adaptive advantage because many of them are infrequently visited by insects so that the probability of successful pollination can be very low.Abbreviations P O

Summary Locomotor activity of the river lamprey, Lampetra japonica, was investigated under a light-dark (LD 1212) cycle and under continuous dark conditions. Intact lampreys were entrained to the light:dark cycle. They were active mainly in the early half of the dark period and inactive in light period. The light:dark entrainment continued in 72.7% of lampreys after the removal of bilateral eyes, but additional pinealectomy made the entrainment disappear in all lampreys. When lampreys were pinealectomized with their eyes intact, light: dark entrainment was abolished in most cases. The results indicate that the pineal organ of the lamprey is a photoreceptive organ responsible for synchronizing locomotor activity to LD cycle. Under continuous dark conditions, the locomotor activity began to free-run with a period of 21.3 ± 0.9 h (mean ± SD, n = 53). This circadian rhythmicity was not affected by the removal of lateral eyes but was abolished by pinealectomy. The pineal organ appears to function as an oscillator, or as one of the oscillators, for the circadian locomotor rhythm of lampreys.Abbreviations DD

Fatty acids (FAs) have long been recognized for their nutritional value in the absence of glucose, and as necessary components of cell membranes. However, FAs have other effects on cells that may be less familiar. Polyunsaturated FAs of dietary origin (n–6 andn–3) cannot be synthesized by mammals, and are termed essential because they are required for the optimal biologic function of specialized cells and tissues. However, they do not appear to be necessary for normal growth and metabolism of a variety of cells in culture. The essential fatty acids (EFAs) have received increased attention in recent years due to their presumed involvement in cardiovascular disorders and in cancers of the breast, pancreas, colon and prostate. Manyin vitro systems have emerged which either examine the role of EFAs in human disease directly, or utilize EFAs to mimic thein vivo cellular environment. The effects of EFAs on cells are both direct and indirect. As components of membrane phospholipids, and due to their varying structural and physical properties, EFAs can alter membrane fluidity, at least in the local environment, and affect any process that is mediated via the membrane. EFAs containing 20 carbons and at least three double bonds can be enzymatically converted to eicosanoid hormones, which play important roles in a variety of physiological and pathological processes. Alternatively, EFAs released into cells from phospholipids can act as second messengers that activate protein kinase C. Furthermore, susceptibility to oxidative damage increases with the degree of unsaturation, a complication that merits consideration because lipid peroxidation can lead to a variety of substances with toxic and mutagenic properties. The effects of EFAs on cultured cells are illustrated using the responses of normal and tumor human mammary epithelial cells. A thorough evaluation of EFA effects on commercially important cells could be used to advantage in the biotechnology industry by identifying EFA supplements that lead to improved cell growth and/or productivity.Abbreviations AA

The titre and immunoglobulin class of antibodies against Candida albicans in serum from 60 non-pregnant women was determined. IgG titres up to 132, IgA titres up to 18, and IgM titres up to 14 were detected in 30 women with vaginal candidiasis. Similar titres were found in 20 women harbouring yeasts in the mouth or rectum, and in 10 women who were not harbouring yeasts in the vagina, mouth or rectum. Serum fractionation confirmed that antibodies to C. albicans are found in the three immunoglobulin classes and that these antibodies reside in highest titre in the IgG class. No secretory IgA antibodies against C. albicans were detected in the serum of these women. 相似文献

Quantitative headspace analyses of rose flowers showed no significant differences in composition of emitted volatile compounds
between flowers on the intact plant and cut flowers placed in vase water containing sucrose at 0, 15 or 30 g · l−1. Volatile components emitted were geraniol, nerol, citronellol, E-citral, Z-citral, methylgeranylate, trans-caryophyllene, β-cubebene, dihydro-β-ionone, 2-phenylethanol, 2-phenylethylacetate, 3,5-dimethoxytoluene and hexylacetate.
When exposed to a 12-h photoperiod these components showed maximum emission during the light period and a rhythmicity which
differed for the individual compounds. The circadian nature of the rhythmicity was confirmed by the continuation of rhythmicity
during continued darkness or light, and was characterized by `transient' and `free running' periods of 27 and 24 h, respectively,
and a phase shift of 12 h in rhythmicity when a 24-h period of continuous darkness was followed by re-exposure to a 12-h photoperiod.
Rhythmicity in emission was not observed when flowers were kept in darkness before flower bud opening, but started immediately
upon exposure to a 12-h photoperiod.
