Survival of Vibrio cholerae El Tor serotype Inaba was examined in pasteurized milk, freshwater fish, raw beef and raw chicken at a variety of temperatures. Both food type and incubation temperature affected survival. At the lowest temperatures, V. cholerae remained viable in meats for up to 90 d at—5°C and 300 d at —25°C. In milk, however, it was not detectable after 34 d at —5°C and 150 d at —25°C. At 7°C it survived 32 d, on average, in milk and only 18–20 d in the other foods. At room temperatures survival periods were shorter, never exceeding 10 d, and it was not detected after 2 d incubation at 35°C in chicken and fish.  相似文献

Abstract The effect of temperature on rate of development and survival of the immature stages of a subtropical population of the black jezebel, Delias nigrina , was studied under laboratory conditions at a range of constant temperatures. Mean developmental times from first-instar larva to adult varied from 29 days at 27°C to 52 days at 19°C; the development threshold temperature and thermal constant were estimated to be 9°C and 494 degree-days, respectively. Larval developmental rates reached physiological maximum at the higher temperatures tested (25−27°C). Pupal development, by contrast, was not affected in the same way as larvae by higher temperature. Survival of the immature stages varied inversely with temperature: survival was highest at 19°C and significantly reduced at 27°C. Mortality at the higher temperature was attributable mainly to final-instar larvae and pupae. These findings indicate that, compared with other tropical pierids that have been studied, D. nigrina has: (i) a comparatively low temperature threshold; (ii) a slow rate of development; and (iii) a poor tolerance to moderately high temperatures. Physiologically, these features are more characteristic of a temperate butterfly than a tropical one. This physiological response appears to be reflected by the temperate nature of the genus as a whole, which may be related to its period of origin and evolution during past climatic events.  相似文献

Reproduction and population parameters of vegetable leafminer, Liriomyza sativae Blanchard were measured on cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) at seven constant temperatures (10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35 and 40℃). No eggs were found at 10℃ and flies died after exposure to 40℃. The significantly highest intrinsic rate of natural increase (rm), net reproductive rate (R0) and finite rate of increase (λ) ofL. sativae were obtained at 25℃ as 0.196, 52.452, and 1.216, respectively. The above-mentioned parameters decreased at 15℃ and 135℃ and this reduction at 35℃ was strong. Doubling time (DT) varied significantly with temperature. The shortest doubling time was obtained at 25℃. Mean generation time (T) decreased significantly with increasing temperature between 15℃ and 35℃. Percentage of immature ages in the stable age distribution was more than 95% at all temperatures. Female longevity was greater than male at all temperatures. Liriomyza sativae lived for a long time at 15℃, whereas at 35℃ had lower survival rates. The effect of temperature on reproduction, especially the intrinsic rate of increase of L. sativae would be useful for predicting its longterm population fluctuation over several generations.  相似文献

Abstract. The potential for thermal acclimation of photosynthetic electron transport by guard cell chloropiasts (GC ch) was assessed in epidermal peels taken from the abaxial side of Saxifraga cernua leaves grown at 20°C and 10°C. Chlorophyll a fluorescence induction kinetics measured in pairs of guard cells in individual stomata from tissue grown at 10 °C demonstrated a rise in the fluorescence to a maximum and a larger amplitude in variable fluorescence when measured at temperatures below 18°C than was seen in GC ch from tissue grown at 20°C. The rates of fluorescence quenching in 10°C-grown tissue were also faster than in 20°C-grown tissue when measured at temperatures below 18°C. State 1-State 2 transitions by GC ch were measured at selected temperatures between 5 and 25 °C as changes in the magnitude of the fluorescence emission maxima at 685, 695 and 730nm (F685, F695 and F730) measured at 77K. At measuring temperatures of 5 and 10°C, GC ch in tissue grown at 10 °C showed a greater transition to State 2 (a larger F730/F695 ratio) than did GC ch in tissue grown at 20 °C. At measuring temperatures of 20 and 25 °C, there was no difference in either the kinetics or the magnitude of the State 1 to State 2 transition in the two tissues. The ultrastructure of GC ch from tissues grown at 10 and 20 °C was also examined using transmission electron microscopy. Less than half (48%) of the grana from the higher temperature grown tissue had more than nine thylakoids/grana. Grana in GC ch which had developed at 10 °C showed a dramatic reduction in stacking, such that 85% of the grana contained no more than two thylakoids. The reduction in grana stacking was also accompanied by a decrease in the degree of appression of thylakoid membranes. The results demonstrate a capacity for thermal acclimation of GC ch function to low temperatures. This acclimation is associated with alterations in the chloroplast ultrastructure.  相似文献

The long-term survival of Escherichia coli in river water   总被引:9,自引:8,他引:1  
Escherichia coli introduced into autoclaved filtered river water survived for up to 260 d at temperatures from 4° to 25°C with no loss of viability. Survival times were less in water which was only filtered through either a Whatman filter paper or a 0.45 μm Millipore filter or in untreated water, suggesting that competition with the natural microbial flora of the water was the primary factor in the disappearance of the introduced bacteria. Survival was also dependent upon temperature with survival at 4°C > 15°C > 25°C > 37°C for any water sample. Direct counts showed that bacterial cells did not disappear as the viable count decreased. The possession of the antibiotic resistance plasmids, R 1 drd -19 or R144-3, did not enhance survival nor cause a faster rate of decay, indicating that the metabolic burden imposed by a plasmid was not a factor in survival under starvation conditions. There was no evidence of transfer of either plasmid at 15°C or of loss of plasmid function during starvation.  相似文献

SUMMARY. The oxygen uptake of Limnephilus rhombicus , a typical inhabitant of lentic waters, was measured in three different experimental situations: in still water with a plastic mesh as a substrate, in stirred water with a plastic mesh and in still water without any substrate. Water flow caused a small increase in oxygen uptake at all temperatures but principally above 15°C. The presence or absence of the plastic substrate had little influence on oxygen uptake; L. rhombicus can be active over the whole range of temperatures studied but its activity is always small. Its metabolism—temperature curve stands out in having a plateau between 5 and 10°C, with a steeper part between 10 and 20°C, the slope of which varies according to the conditions. Maximum oxygen uptake at high temperatures was relatively low (1235 ± 153 μl O2g dry wt-1h-1 at 25°C).
The results are compared with those obtained previously for the larvae of Microptema testacea which inhabit flowing zones in brooks. L. rhombicus larvae appear both as cold-water animals and as animals from highly variable biotopes. They are in fact very ubiquitous and occupy all lentic biotopes from cold and mountainous districts to temperate lowlands.  相似文献

Listeria monocytogenes is a food-borne pathogenic bacterium that can be found in softcheese. At the beginning of cheese ripening, the pH is about 4·85–4·90. The aimof this work was to study the influence of temperature, preincubation temperature (temperature atwhich the inoculum was cultivated) and initial bacterial concentration on the survival of L.monocytogenes (strain Scott A) at pH 4·8. It was demonstrated in an earlier study thatthese factors did influence growth kinetics. Survival studies of L. monocytogenes weredone in a laboratory broth simulating cheese composition. Four test temperatures (2, 6, 10 and14°C) and two preincubation temperatures were studied (30°C or the test temperature). Listeria monocytogenes (strain Scott A) was unable to grow at pH 4·8 under allconditions tested. The time for 10% survival was about 11 and 2 d, at 2°C with preincubationat 2°C and 30°C, respectively; 9 d at 6°C with preincubation at 6°C; 4 d at 6°Cwith preincubation at 30°C; and 1 d at 14°C with preincubation at 14°C or at 30°C.The results show that survival of L. monocytogenes (strain Scott A) at pH 4·8 is notdependent on initial bacterial concentration but on both the test and preincubation temperatures.  相似文献

The survival of Salmonella typhimurium after a standard heat challenge at 55°C for 25 min increased by several orders of magnitude when cells grown at 37°C were pre-incubated at 42°, 45° or 48°C before heating at the higher temperature. Heat resistance increased rapidly after the temperature shift, reaching near maximum levels within 30 min. Elevated heat resistance persisted for at least 10 h. Preincubation of cells at 48°C for 30 min increased their resistance to subsequent heating at 50°, 52°, 55°, 57° or 59°C. Survival curves of resistant cells were curvilinear. Estimated times for a '7D' inactivation increased by 2.6- to 20-fold compared with cells not pre-incubated before heat challenge.  相似文献

Eggs of Heterobranchus longifilis Val. 1840 were artificially fertilized and incubated at a range of temperatures (20, 23, 25, 27, 29 and 32°C). The time from fertilization to hatching decreased with increasing temperature. No eggs survived to hatch at 20 and 32°C incubation temperatures, while at 23 and 29°C hatching was only minimal. Optimum hatching was obtained at 25 and 27°C, which corresponds to the ambient temperature range during the breeding season. Larvae of H. longifilis were reared for 11 days post-hatching at 20, 25, 27, 29 and 32°C. Growth increased with temperature (P < 0.05), whereas survival depicted an inverse relationship. Growth was minimal at 20°C and larvae rarely survived to the end of the experiment. Optimum temperature for the primary nursing of H. longifilis larvae was within the 25–27°C temperature range.  相似文献

SUMMARY. 1. Soyedina carolinensis Claassen, a leaf shredding stonefly, was reared in a series of three laboratory experiments from early instar to adult on different species of deciduous leaves and at various constant and fluctuating temperature regimes.
2. Experiment 1, which involved rearing larvae on fourteen different leaf diets at ambient stream temperatures, showed that diet significantly affected larval growth and adult size but did not affect overall developmental time.
3. Experiment 2, which involved rearing larvae on five different leaf diets at each of three fluctuating temperature regimes (viz ambient White Clay Creek (WCC), ambient WCC+3°C, and ambient WCC+6°C), showed that: (i) adding 6°C to the normal temperature regime of WCC was lethal to 99% of the larvae regardless of diet; and (ii) warming WCC by 3°C did not affect developmental time but did significantly reduce adult size relative to adults reared at WCC temperatures on certain diets.
4. Experiment 3, which involved rearing larvae on five different leaf diets at each of five constant temperatures (viz 5, 10, 15, 20, 25°C), showed that: (i) temperature significantly affected the mortality, growth, and development time of larvae whereas diet only affected larval growth and mortality; (ii) temperatures at or near 10°C yielded maximum larval growth and survival for most diets; (iii) at 5°C, larval mortality was high and growth was low resulting in a few small adults for most diets; (iv) larval mortality was at or near 100% at 15°C regardless of diet; and (v) no larvae survived at 20 and 25°C.  相似文献

Abstract.  Understanding the effects of low winter temperatures on mortality is essential in the development of a full understanding of the long-term population dynamics of any insect. The present study aims to examine the survival of pupae and larvae of the blow fly, Lucilia sericata , at overwintering temperatures. Groups of pupae and diapausing and nondiapausing third-stage larvae of L. sericata are maintained in cooled incubators at either 3 °C and 6 °C. Groups are removed from the incubators at 3–4-day intervals and transferred either to−8 °C or to 25 °C. After 1 h in the freezer, the larvae and pupae exposed to this cold-shock are also transferred to 25 °C. Larvae and pupae are then allowed to continue development and the number of adults emerging from each group is counted. The results demonstrate that survival decreases linearly with the period of exposure at both 3 °C and 6 °C. Mortality is higher at 3 °C than at 6 °C and, in groups that receive the cold shock, cold-shock reduces emergence by over 50%. However, there is no consistent tendency for diapausing larvae to survive prolonged cold or cold shock better than other life-cycle stages. The results suggest that the facultative development of an overwintering diapause stage in L. sericata does not appear to be an adaptation to enhance cold tolerance or resistance to cold shock. It is concluded that the survival of overwintering L. sericata is likely to be relatively less affected by low temperatures than it is by, for example, biotic factors, particularly given the buffered soil environment and short time-scales over which periods of cold act.  相似文献

Abstract. Alternating temperatures stimulate the germination of Rumex crispus L. and Rumex obtusifolius L. The optimum period spent at the lower temperature in a diurnal cycle is greater than that spent at the higher temperature. Under most conditions the optimum period at the upper temperatures is about 8 h but, as the upper temperature of a cycle is increased, the optimum period at the upper temperature becomes shorter and more critical. Thus when it is 35°C the optimum period is 2.5–4 h in the light, or about 1 h in the dark. The effect of alternating temperatures is much less in the dark than in the light and in general only extreme alternations with short periods at the higher temperature are effective in the dark. In the light any temperature alternation within the range 1–35°C is effective to at least some extent, providing the temperature difference is 5°C or more and providing the alternation includes one temperature which is above approximately 15°C and one which is below approximately 25°C. The optimum temperature difference is about 15°C. In the light, 4 to 10 cycles saturate the response, but in the dark, where the effect is much less, the response may not be saturated even by 16 cycles. KNO3 at 10−3 M has little effect on the response to alternating temperatures either in the light or the dark. The response to alternating temperature regimes does not appear to vary in quality, i.e., in terms of which particular treatments are best, but it varies in magnitude with site and year of seed collection; and it increases slowly during dry storage, even when stored at a temperature as low as 1.5°C.  相似文献

The chief objective was to determine the critical thermal limits for alevins, fry and parr of Arctic charr, Salvelinus alpinus , (L.) from four races living in Windermere (northwest England). The experimental fish were reared in a hatchery but were the progeny of wild parents. As comparisons between tethal temperatures at four acclimation temperatures (5, 10, 15, 20° C) revealed few significant racial differences, the data were pooled to estimate the lethal values for survival over 7 days (incipient lethal temperature) and over only 10 min (ultimate lethal temperature) for each life stage. Upper lethal values increased with acclimation temperatures for alevins but this effect was negligible for fry and parr, Alevins were generally less tolerant than fry and parr at lower, but not higher, acclimation temperatures; e.g. after acclimation at 5° C, mean upper ultimate values were 23·3, 25·1 and 25·7° C and mean upper incipient values were 18·7, 21·5 and 21·5° C for alevins, fry and parr respectively; after acclimation at 20° C, mean upper ultimate and incipient values were 26·2, 26·1 and 26·6° C and 20·8, 20·8 and 21·6° C for alevins, fry and parr respectively. The area of the temperature tolerance polygon (expressed as ° C2) for juvenile Arctic charr is amongst the lowest recorded for salmonids; being 409, 439 and 461° C2 for alevins, fry and parr respectively. These low values are due to lower upper tolerance limits, not high lower tolerance limits; the latter being close to 0° C (<1°C for parr and fry, <0·3° C for alevins) at all acclimation temperatures. Arctic charr are therefore amongst the least resistant of salmonids to high temperatures but probably the most resistant to low temperatures.  相似文献

Abstract
No immature stages of Culex annulirostris were found during field sampling in 1979–1980 when the average water temperature was < 17 °C; they reappeared when the average water temperature was 19 °C and reached the peak density (mean 107 immatures/cylinder) at 26.5 °C.
The effect of 6 temperatures (15–40°C) on egg hatching, development and survival of the immature stages of Cx annulirostris in the laboratory showed that at 15 and 40°C, eggs failed to hatch and larvae died in the first instars. The optimum temperatures for egg hatching and the survival of immature stages were 25 and 30°C. At these temperatures, 85 and 82% respectively of egg rafts hatched, the mean number of larvae per raft was 258 ± 9.8 and 260 ± 11.4 with immature survival of 83.5 and 79.0% respectively. Mean time to hatch at 20–35°C ranged from 1.2 d (35°C) to 2.9 d (20 °C). Developmental times from first instar to adult ranged from 7.1 d (35 °C) to 25.2 d (20 °C). The threshold for development of the immatures was 15.6 ± 2.5°C and the thermal constant was 142.9 ± 26.5 day—degrees (incubation temperatures 20–35°C). At less suitable temperatures of 20 and 35 °C, hatching (57.5 and 45%), number larvae per raft (mean 139.8 ± 9.8 and 102.6 ± 14.2) and survival were low.  相似文献

This study assesses the influence of thermal regime on the development, survival rates and early growth of embryos of sea lamprey Petromyzon marinus incubated at five constant temperatures (7, 11, 15, 19 and 23° C). The time from fertilization to 50% hatching and from hatching to 50% burrowing were inversely related to incubation temperature. All the embryos incubated at 7° C died at very early stages, while those maintained at 11° C did not attain the burrowing stage. Survival from fertilization to hatching was 61, 89, 91 and 89% at 11, 15, 19 and 23° C, decreasing to 58, 70 and 70% from hatching to burrowing at 15, 19 and 23° C, respectively. Larvae reared during the first 3 months of exogenous feeding in a common environment at constant 21° C, revealed maximum survival for an incubation temperature of 15° C (43% of burrowed larvae) decreasing strongly at 19° C (16%) and 23° C (one suvivor among 240 larvae). Body length at the burrowing stage was maximum for embryos incubated at 19° C, but body mass increased in the interval 15–23° C. Mean incubation temperatures experienced by 117 broods during the embryonic development in the source river were estimated in 15·3±2·30° C and 16·7±1·76° C (mean±1 s.d .) for the periods fertilization-to-hatching and hatching-to burrowing, respectively.  相似文献

Survival was generally high, 94–100%, for newly hatched larvae of the nase Chondrostoma nasus held at 10, 13, 16, 19, 22, 25 and 28° C up to day 66 post-fertilization. The developmental rate decreased with age and increased with temperature. Specific growth rates increased with temperature; within one temperature range growth rate decreased with ontogenetic development. Food consumption and respiration increased with temperature and body size. A temperature increase from 25 to 28° C resulted in slightly reduced survival, minor acceleration of developmental growth and respiration rates, and impeded skeleton formation. Growth efficiency of consumed energy decreased throughout the larval period from 55 to 67% at the first larval stage (L1) to 36–48% at the first juvenile stage (J1). A similar trend for assimilation efficiency and its utilization for growth was observed. The constant temperatures required by larval nase ranged from a minimum 8–10° C to a maximum 25–28° C. A shift of optimum temperatures, 8–12, 13–16, 15–18, 19 and 22° C for nase spawning, embryonic development, yolk feeding larvae, early externally feeding larvae and, late larvae and juveniles, respectively, paralleled the spring rise in the river water temperature. Larval and juvenile nase show high survival, growth and energy conversion efficiencies compared with other fish species. On the other hand, low survival rates and growth can be attributed to external perturbations; thus, young nase may be considered a good indicator of the environmental and ecological integrity of river systems.  相似文献

Fertilized Chondrostoma nasus eggs were incubated at 10, 13, 16 and 19° C until full resorption of the yolk sac. High survival was observed at 10–16° C (89–92% at the onset of external feeding), whereas at 19) C survival was depressed (76%). The time at which 5, 50 and 95% of individuals had hatched, filled the swim bladder, ingested the first food and fully resorbed the yolk sac was determined. An increase in temperature accelerated development and made it more synchronous. Within the period from fertilization to hatching embryonic development was theoretically arrested (t0 dev) at 8·8° C, and growth was arrested (t0gr) at 8·86° C. For the whole endogenous feeding period (from fertilization to full yolk resorption) the amount of matter transformed into tissue was temperature independent between 10° and 19° C. Respiration increased exponentially with age; the respiration increase was faster at higher temperatures, but, in general, metabolic expenditures of C. nasus were low. As a consequence, the efficiency of utilizing yolk energy for growth was high as compared with other fish species (57% during the whole endogenous feeding period); it was temperature independent. However, time was used less efficiently at low temperatures, increasing a risk of predation. Within the endogenous feeding period a shift from lower to higher temperatures for optimal yolk utilization efficiency was observed. The temperatures optimal for survival and energetic performance seem to be 13–16° C for egg incubation and 15–18° C for rearing of yolk-feeding larvae. Chondrostoma nasus is a potential candidate for aquaculture for restocking purposes.  相似文献

Germination of freshly harvested seeds of a non-dormant (ND) line (Stonehouse 319) of wild oats ( Avena fatua L.) was inhibited by incubation of the seeds at relatively high temperatures of 25 and 30°C. The germination inhibition in these seeds appeared to be a case of thermo-inhibition which was the direct effect of hightemperature treatment (HIT), since it did not persist after transferring the seeds to an optimum germination temperature of 20°C. Even a prolonged HTT of 30°C for over 5 weeks did not prevent germination of about 80% of the seeds transferred to 20°C. However, in a significant proportion of the seeds, thermo-dormancy was induced by 10 days of HTT at 30°C if the seeds were then incubated at sub-optimal temperatures of 5 to 15°C. This thermo-dormancy would appear to be 'restrictive' in form, since its expression was restricted to very specific conditions. Relatively low inclubation temperaturs of 5 and 10°C markedly slowed germination whether HTT was applied or not. The results suggest that thermo-inhibition and thermo-dormancy, induced during seasonal temperature fluctuations, may provide a survival mechanism for seeds of such ND lines as Stonehouse 319.  相似文献

Anterior kidney and splenic cells were taken from rainbow trout and splenic cells from BALB/c mice immunized with a T-dependent (sheep red blood cells) or T-independent (DNP-Ficoll) antigen. The cells were incubated at different temperatures in Jerne plaque assays (direct or passive haemolytic plaque assays). The optimum numbers of in vitro plaque-forming cells (PFC) after incubation with homologous complement were directly correlated with normal body temperatures of the respective species. The optimum incubation temperature was 37°C for mouse cells and 10°C for fish cells. Incubation of mouse cells at lower temperatures of 30, 20, 10, 4 or 0°C appeared to yield a direct line reduction in numbers of PFC. Trout cells developed significantly fewer PFC at 4 and 20°C and none at 30°C or above; however, significant numbers still appeared at 0°C. More PFC per million white blood cells were obtained from the anterior kidney; however, related to temperatures, no differences in development of numbers of PFC could be seen between the spleen and anterior kidney cells of trout. When the incubation time was lengthened for both trout and mouse cells held at low temperatures, the numbers of PFC approached those of the cells incubated at the optimum temperatures for 10 h.  相似文献

Effects of temperature and salinity upon the survival, locomotion and metabolism of the Arctic marine amphipod Onisimus affinis H. J. Hansen have been investigated. The LD50 for temperature is ≈ 18.7 °C. The metabolic rate-temperature curve shows a distinct plateau of relative temperature insensitivity the position of which varies seasonally to include a lower temperature range in winter than in summer. Similar shifts in the plateau can be induced in the laboratory by acclimating the animals at summer- and winter-like temperatures.Optimal locomotory activity was between 5° and 8 °C and included a combination of swimming and crawling. Above 12 °C the swimming component was increasingly inhibited.Onisimus is euryhaline and appears to be most successful in brackish water habitats. It tolerates elevated salinities better at low temperatures. The metabolic rate varies inversely with salinity during short-term exposures, but, if the animals are pre-adapted to the experimental salinities for 10 days, the metabolic rate is essentially independent of salinity between 10%. and 25%.The significance of these physiological responses in relation to the general ecology of the species is discussed.  相似文献
