红火蚁的巢间相容性

在室内条件下通过将红火蚁Solenopsis invicta Buren异巢不同品级的个体置于同一容器中,对红火蚁的巢间相容性进行研究。结果表明,蚁后与异巢幼蚁共处时,异巢幼蚁的羽化率为33.3%,与对照处理的38.3%(蚁后与同巢幼蚁共处)无显著差异。工蚁与异巢幼蚁共处时,异巢幼蚁的羽化率为53.7%,与对照处理的72.2%(工蚁与同巢幼蚁共处)无显著差异。蚁后与异巢工蚁共处时,异巢蚁后的存活率为45%,与对照处理的61.7%(工蚁与同巢蚁后共处)无显著差异。有翅繁殖雌蚁与异巢工蚁共处时,异巢工蚁的存活率为86.7%与对照处理的99.4%(工蚁与同巢有翅繁殖雌蚁共处)存在显著差异;异巢有翅雌蚁的存活率为22.2%,与对照处理的88.9%(工蚁与同巢有翅繁殖雌蚁共处)存在显著差异。由此可见,同区域内红火蚁异巢各品级间存在一定程度的相容性,并巢行为有可能发生。

莲藕多酚氧化酶同工酶的比较分析

采用垂直板聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳技术,对同一植株莲藕的不同部位、不同湖区野生莲藕以及不同品种的特定部位的多酚氧化酶(PPO)同工酶进行了分析。结果表明,同一植株莲藕不同部位PPO同工酶带有一定的特异性, 其主要表现在区带数目、迁移位置和区带染色深浅三方面;而不同湖区野生莲藕以及不同品种莲藕,处于同一生长周期、同一部位中的PPO同工酶遗传多样性则较低。     

Comparative evaluation of laser-based microarray scanners

Laboratories use different laser-based scanners to scan microarray images. To assess whether results from different scanners are comparable, and thus whether data from different laboratories can be compared, we scanned the same microarray slide with three commercial scanners that use different imaging techniques. After the acquisition of the microarray images produced by the three scanners, the images were quantified using a single imaging software package and protocol. The results were compared, and we found that the data obtained from the three scanners were comparable and that the variations caused by the use of different instruments were negligible, in spite of the fact that the scanners were based on different optical imaging techniques.

利用DPPH、FRAP和ABTS三种抗氧化活性分析方法对黄连植物不同部位的有机溶剂提取部分进行抗氧化评价,将所测定结果与Trolox进行比较,发现黄连植物不同部位抗氧化活性不同。其中,黄连须根的抗氧化活性最高;同一部位中,乙酸乙酯和甲醇提取物抗氧化活性一般要高于石油醚提取物。在三种方法中,黄连不同部位的提取物清除自由基的能力均随浓度增大而增大;三种方法之间有很好的相关性,以FRAP法与DPPH法相关性最好(r=0.9261,P<0.01)。     

不同生境中杉阔混交林物种多样性特征初步研究

根据生境因子应用主分量分析和动态聚类方法进行生境的划分,在此基础上分析不同生境中杉阔混交林群落数量特征。结果表明：不同生境中植物群落的主要优势种组成不一,其重要值也不同。不同生境中植物群落乔木层的物种数目、物种多样性、群落均匀度均有较大差异。海拔对不同生境中植物群落乔木层的物种数目、物种多样性和群落均匀度有很大影响,坡向则对个体总数和种类的影响较大。海拔和坡向对不同生境中植物群落乔木层生态优势度则无明显影响,应该重视不同生境中杉阔混交林多样性的保护。     

根田鼠对不同亲属关系异性尿气味的识别

根为检验根田鼠对不同亲属关系异性成体尿气味的识别能力,通过一雄两雌配对实验建立实验种群,从而产生同胞、父系半同胞和陌生个体。在行为选择箱中记录了雌、雄根田鼠对亲属系数分别为0、0.25 和0.5 异性尿气味的行为响应模式。结果如下:雌性根田鼠对3 种不同亲属关系雄鼠气味的接近潜伏期的差异达到极显著水平(P < 0.01),嗅闻时间的差异也达到显著水平(P <0.05),而嗅闻频次和反标记的差异均未达到显著水平(P >0.05)。雄性根田鼠对3 种不同亲属关系雌鼠气味的接近潜伏期和嗅闻时间的差异都未达到显著水平(P >0.05)。对不同亲属关系的气味嗅闻频次和反标记的比较分析表明,三者间的差异也未达到显著水平(P >0.05)。因此,雌性根田鼠能够识别不同亲属关系异性气味并对不同气味表现出不同的行为响应模式;而雄鼠不能识别3 种气味并对其表现出类似的行为模式。

5个棉蚜组织蛋白酶B基因克隆及在不同寄主专化型中的表达分析

昆虫组织蛋白酶B在昆虫代谢中发挥着重要作用。本研究从棉蚜Aphis gossypii Glover的转录组数据库中挑选Cath B并克隆得到全长cDNA序列,使用qRT-PCR分析这些基因在不同寄主专化型棉蚜不同龄期中的相对表达量。通过分析棉蚜体内5个高表达组织蛋白酶B基因不同发育阶段的表达谱,比较了不同专化型棉蚜在寄主转换之后的表达差异。研究发现,这5个基因在不同龄期不同寄主上均表达。棉花型棉蚜在棉花寄主上不同基因间的表达各不相同。黄瓜型棉蚜在黄瓜Cucumis sativus L.上AgCb-1、AgCb-2、AgCb-3基因均在成蚜时期表达量相对较高,AgCb-4、AgCb-5基因表达量则与之相反。分别将棉花型棉蚜和黄瓜型棉蚜转接到西葫芦Cucurbita pepo L.上后,棉花型棉蚜AgCb-1、AgCb-4基因和黄瓜型棉蚜AgCb-1、AgCb-2、AgCb-3基因均在成蚜不同时期的表达量显著大于转接前。结果表明：AgCb-1、AgCb-2、AgCb-3、AgCb-4、AgCb-5基因表达量伴随着棉蚜的生长发育以及寄主的转换,表现出不同的差异。说明组织蛋白酶在棉蚜对寄主植物的适应性过程中可能发挥作用。     

Characterisation of the bacterial community associated with early stages of Great Scallop (Pecten maximus), using denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE)

Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis (DGGE) of PCR-amplified 16S rDNA was used to characterise and compare bacterial communities associated with scallop larvae (Pecten maximus), in different production units in a shellfish hatchery. Water and larvae samples were collected from three different aquaculture systems; stagnant, flow-through and a flow- through system with seawater treated with ozone. Samples were also collected from different algal cultures, inlet tanks and water pipes leading to the different aquaculture systems. Clear differences were seen between the bacterial community associated with the larvae and in the water from the different aquaculture systems. However, there were high similarities in the community composition between different water samples and between larvae samples collected at different time periods, indicating a high stability in the bacterial communities. Fifty three percent of the sequences from these samples were similar to 16S rRNA gene sequences of members of the gamma-subclass of the Proteobacteria. The different algal cultures had different bacterial communities, however 73 percent of the sequences were similar to 16S rRNA gene sequences of members of the alpha-subclass of the Proteobacteria. Differences in the DGGE profiles were also seen between the samples taken from the inlet tanks and water pipes, indicating a change in the bacterial community composition as the water passed through the pipes. To our knowledge this is the first study investigating bacterial communities associated with Great Scallop larvae in different aquaculture systems including noncultured components.     

中国外来入侵植物的学名考证 (3)

Factors Affecting Reproducibility of Numerical Classifications

Results obtained with reference organisms which had been included in each of three different investigations were compared. Positions of the reference organisms in diagrams based on highest-link numerical groupings varied with the composition of the microbial samples studied, but significant correlations were found between the results of different investigations. Correlations between the overall groupings obtained in different studies were often better than the correlations between actual similarity values computed between specific pairs of organisms. Similarity values based on different sets of features showed significant correlations, regardless of the kinds of features involved or of the number of features (above a minimum of about 40). Correlations between values based on totally different features were nearly as good as those between values based on similar features which had been determined by different investigators.     

Molecular analysis of lichen-associated bacterial communities

The bacterial communities associated with 11 different lichen samples (belonging to eight different species) from different habitats were investigated. The culturable aerobic-heterotrophic fraction of the bacterial communities was isolated from nine lichen samples on protein-rich and sugar-rich/N-free media. Thirty-four bacterial isolates were purified and pooled into groups (phylotypes) by analysis of the ribosomal internal transcribed spacer polymorphism. Twenty five phylotypes were identified, each comprising between one and three isolates. One isolate of each phylotype was partially sequenced and the resulting 16S rRNA gene sequences were compared in a phylogenetic analysis. Three genera of Firmicutes, four of Actinobacteria and three of Proteobacteria were identified. Two phylotypes, belonging to the phyla Actinobacteria and Proteobacteria, respectively, were not identified at genus level. Some bacterial taxa were retrieved frequently in different lichen species sampled in the same or different sites. Paenibacillus and Burkholderia phylotypes seem to be common in lichens. Luteibactor rhizovicina was found in three different lichens of two different regions. In a cultivation-independent approach, total DNA was extracted from 11 lichen samples. Molecular fingerprints of the bacterial communities were obtained by PCR-amplification of the internal transcribed spacer region, and sequencing of selected bands indicated the presence of additional bacteria.

Thymidine incorporation of bacteria sequentially extracted from soil using repeated homogenization-centrifugation

Bacteria were sequentially extracted from soil into a water suspension after shaking soil with water or mixing it in a blender followed by a low-speed centrifugation. Bacteria, which were released only after several cycles of homogenization-centrifugation, had higher growth rates as judged from thymidine and leucine incorporation, whereas bacteria that were more readily released by a gentle shaking procedure had the lowest growth rate. This indicated that bacteria more tightly bound to soil particles were growing faster than those that were more easily released into the water suspension. The same pattern was found both in an agricultural and a forest soil, with contrasting pH and organic matter content, and irrespective of whether the bacteria were labeled before or after the centrifugation steps. The different growth rates of the bacteria could not be explained by different partitioning of label between different macromolecules, different cell size, different viability of the bacteria, or different dilution of the added radioactive substrate in the different homogenization-centrifugation fractions. The total amount of phospholipid fatty acids per bacterial cell was also similar in the different fractions. Different composition of the bacterial communities in the different homogenization-centrifugation fractions was indicated by a gradually altered phospholipid fatty acid pattern of the extracted bacteria, and an increased hydrophobicity of the bacteria released only after several homogenization-centrifugation treatments.
