图论在中国慈姑属数量分类研究中的应用

慈姑属(Sagittaria L.)是水生单子叶植物泽泻科(Alismataceae)的一个重要属。近年来,陈家宽等对中国慈姑属进行了系统研究。作者应用聚类分析和主成分分析进行了中国慈姑属的数量分类,取得了良好的效果。由于慈姑属分类性状数目较大,因而在压缩后的三维空间中描述分类群间的距离,     

兰州北山三种蜥蜴春季食性分析

兰州地区密点麻蜥、丽斑麻蜥和草原沙蜥的春季食物均为动物食物。无论在栖息地重叠地区还是非重叠地区,三种蜥蜴的食物种类在种间均无显著差异（Ｆ＝０．８６１,ｄｆＴ＝２,ｄｆＥ＝３６,Ｐ〉０．０５）。种内不同性别和年龄食性无显著差异。     

THE CHANGE IN STATE OF THE PROTEINS OF MUSCLE IN RIGOR

1. When myosin is exposed to a typical denaturing agent (acid) it becomes insoluble and its SH groups are activated. 2. The same number of active SH groups is found in the soluble myosin of resting muscle as in the insoluble myosin of muscle in rigor. No activation of SH groups accompanies the formation of insoluble protein in rigor. 3. When the insoluble myosin of muscle in rigor is treated with a denaturing agent its SH groups are activated. 4. Protein coagulation as brought about by denaturing agents (heat, acid, alkali, alcohol, urea, salicylate, surface forces, ultraviolet light) is a distinctly different change from the coagulation of myosin brought about by the unknown agent in muscle.     

IN VITRO EFFECT OF SUCROSE FEEDING IN THE DIFFERENTIATION OF WOOD ELEMENTS OF PLUMERIA

Wood with cambium of Plumeria rubra Linn. was cultured in modified Schenk and Hildebrandt medium for 75 days. Change in dimension and frequency of cells was compared with that grown in situ for 75 days. Feeding of 41% sucrose in vitro brought about the same type of differentiation as occurred in situ , where non-reducing sugar percentage increased (from 0.0004 before culture to 0.0032 after 75 days' growth in situ ). Sucrose favoured enlargement of axial elements and numerical increase of all lignified elements.     

原位杂交和原位PCR技术在鱼类基因定位中的应用

染色体原位杂交（ ｉｎ ｓｉｔｕ ｈｙｂｒｉｄｉｚａｔｉｏｎ, ＩＳＨ）是基因物理定位的主要方法之一,它根据核酸分子碱基互补配对的原理,将标记的外源核酸探针与染色体上变性处理后的单链ＤＮＡ互补配对,再经检测而将靶顺序在染色体上的位置显示出来。 原位ＰＣＲ技术是将原位杂交与ＰＣＲ技术有机的结合,在原位扩增目的ＤＮＡ片段,并在原位检测其扩增产物,因而兼有ＰＣＲ及原位杂交技术二者的优越性：既可以同时获得组织及细胞的形态结构信息与分子信息,进行定性、定位分析,又具有比原位杂交更好的敏感性与专一性。 染色体原位…     

中国鲸类动物的人工饲养

我国从1965 年由青岛海产博物馆首次开始饲养江豚和宽吻海豚。以后中国科学院水生生物研究所等单位先后饲养白鳍豚和长江江豚成功, 1995 年以后, 由于外国资本和技术的介入, 使我国鲸类动物的人工饲养水平很快赶上世界先进水平, 但由于发展速度太快,布局也不尽合理, 因此, 必须认真研究和探讨, 使我国鲸类动物的人工饲养得到健康有序的发展。
     

DIFFERENCES IN NITROGEN REQUIREMENTS OF TWO CLONES OF CONVOLVULUS ARVENSIS IN VITRO

Various nitrogen sources were shown to alter the growth and modify nitrate reductase activities of stem callus tissue derived from two clones of Convolvulus arvensis L. (field bindweed). Callus from a Washington (S) clone grew better and had a higher level of nitrate reductase activity than callus from a New Mexico (R) clone when nitrate was the only source of nitrogen available in the culture medium. The addition of glycine to the culture medium decreased growth of the R clone and increased growth of the S clone, but glutamic acid repressed growth of both clones. An amide source of nitrogen such as glutamine or asparagine, or ammonium was required to produce maximum growth of both bindweed clones. Glutamine increased nitrate reductase activity in the two clones, and glycine increased nitrate reductase activity in the S clone but decreased it in the R clone. Glutamic acid decreased nitrate reductase activities in both the R and S tissues.     

中国新石器时代居民体征类型初探

应用聚类分析的方法研究中国新石器时代居民体征类型。作者认为他们同属一个大人种——蒙古人种(即黄色人种)。依照他们体征间的差异,可以分为三个地区类型:1)中原地区类型;2)华南地区类型;3)关中地区类型。这些地区类型形成的时间可能是在较新石器时代为早的时候。
