酵母菌株对芒果酒理化特性及抗氧化特性的影响

采用5株广为使用的酵母菌株(EC1118, D254, Red fruit, Aroma white, SY)分别作为芒果酒的发酵菌株。通过对比它们的发酵力,起发时间以及对芒果酒的酒精度、干浸出物、挥发酸、总糖、可滴定酸含量、pH值以及抗坏血酸、总酚、抗氧化活性(DPPH, FRAP)、感官得分的影响,选取得到芒果酒发酵的最适酵母菌株。结果表明,5株酵母所发酵的芒果酒酒精度相差不大,且干浸出物与总糖含量之间没有显著性差异(p0.05)。Aroma white具有较强的发酵力,所发酵的芒果酒挥发酸含量较低,抗氧化能力较强,感官得分最高。因此确定在这5株菌株中,它最适宜作为芒果酒的发酵菌株。此外,运用主成分分析(principal component analysis,PCA)对5株发酵菌株生产的芒果酒进行了区分,结果表明此法可将5种芒果酒进行明显区分。     

绿盲蝽及其天敌在不同生态条件下的发生动态研究

2005年～2007年,在山东省德州市农科院良种场棉田内系统研究了不同生境对抗虫棉绿盲蝽及其天敌发生动态的影响。试验设5个试验10种处理：即远离果园棉、紧靠果园棉,亩株数3600株均行、亩株数3000株并大小行种植棉,合理化控棉、不化控棉,纯作棉田和插种葵花棉田,双基因抗虫棉和单基因抗虫棉。在棉花的整个生育期系统调查不同生境棉田主要害虫及其天敌的种群数量。结果表明,不同生境抗虫棉田内绿盲蝽天敌的种类基本相同,主要为龟纹瓢虫、七星瓢虫、中华草蛉、大草蛉、华姬蝽、小花蝽、T-纹豹蛛、三突花蛛、草间小黑蛛等。不同生境抗虫棉田内绿盲蝽及其天敌种群数量差异明显。远离果园棉、低密度亩株数3000株并大小行种植棉、合理化控棉能减轻绿盲蝽的发生,但不利于绿盲蝽天敌的发生;种植双基因抗虫棉能减轻绿盲蝽的发生且对绿盲蝽天敌影响不大;插种葵花的棉田即能增加绿盲蝽天敌的数量,又能减轻绿盲蝽的发生。研究还表明绿盲蝽及其天敌在远离果园棉、紧靠果园棉下发生趋势基本一致,仅是发生量存在明显差异,远离果园棉田的绿盲蝽及其天敌百株发生量显著低于紧靠果园棉田（P〈0.05）;合理化控棉田、亩株数3000株大小行棉田内的绿盲蝽及其天敌发生数量显著低于不化控棉田、亩株数3600株均行棉田内的发生数量（P〈0.05）;双基因抗虫棉田内的绿盲蝽百株发生量显著低于单基因抗虫棉田发生数量（P〈0.05）;插种葵花棉田内的绿盲蝽百株发生量极显著低于纯作棉田（P〈0.01）、插种葵花棉田内的绿盲蝽天敌百株发生量显著高于纯作棉田（P〈0.05）,葵花对绿盲蝽及其天敌的诱集效果非常显著,在转基因棉田插种葵花是保益灭害控制绿盲蝽的有效方法之一。     

基于STICS模型的黄土高原苹果园生态系统服务评估

苹果园在确保最大生产力的同时应适当考虑环境和自然资源,如何权衡其生态系统服务是苹果园可持续发展面临的重要问题之一。利用大田试验和STICS模型相结合的方法研究农业管理措施和气候对黄土高原苹果园生态系统服务的影响,并在此基础上对黄土高原南部半湿润区和北部半干旱区土壤氮可利用性、气候调节、水循环调节和果实生产四种苹果园生态系统服务进行了系统的评估。结果表明:(1)STICS模型均能较好模拟白水和子洲试验果园的产量、单果重、土壤含水量和蒸散发等生态系统服务指标;(2)除固碳与产量、单果重及果树相关指标是协同关系以外,其他生态系统服务之间都是权衡关系;(3)对于各管理措施下的果园平均服务标准值,秸秆覆盖(0.67)>地布覆盖(0.52)>清耕(0.30),充分灌溉(0.56)>轻度亏缺灌溉(0.44)>重度亏缺灌溉(0.30),其中秸秆覆盖和充分灌溉的果园服务概况最佳,地布覆盖和轻度亏缺灌溉的果园服务概况较相似且最平衡;(4)地布覆盖和轻度亏缺灌溉管理措施缓和权衡作用的效果优于其他管理措施。综上所述,STICS模型能够较好的量化果园生态系统服务概况,农业管理措施是果园生态系统服务强有力的驱动因子。     

汶川地震对大熊猫主食竹——拐棍竹竹笋生长发育的影响

为了了解汶川地震对大熊猫主食竹生长发育的影响,2009年10月—2011年4月,在地震重灾区四川龙溪-虹口国家级自然保护区内设置150个样方,就地震强度、中度、轻度干扰对大熊猫主食竹拐棍竹(Fargesia robusta)竹笋生长发育的影响进行了研究。研究结果显示:(1)发笋物候上,地震强度干扰的发笋时间(Julian时间)较中度和轻度干扰显著推迟,而发笋期不受影响。(2)发笋量和当年生幼竹数是拐棍竹更新生长的数量指标。地震强度和中度干扰样方的发笋量都显著高于轻度干扰,而发笋量在强度和中度干扰间差异不显著;地震强度干扰样方的当年生幼竹数显著高于中度和轻度干扰,中度和轻度干扰样方间差异不显著。这说明地震的强度和中度干扰都有利于拐棍竹竹笋和当年生幼竹数量的更新。(3)基径和株高是拐棍竹更新生长的质量指标。强度干扰下拐棍竹的基径和株高都显著小于中度和轻度干扰,中度干扰样方的基径与轻度干扰差异不显著,但株高显著矮于轻度干扰样方。表明强度干扰下拐棍竹的质量最差,中度干扰的基径已基本得到恢复,但株高仍受到抑制。(4)地震不同干扰等级拐棍竹退笋原因划分为:外力机械损伤、动物取食、生长停止、其他4种。对地震不同干扰等级拐棍竹退笋原因比率的分析发现,强度干扰样方因外力机械损伤和生长停止退笋的比率显著高于中度和轻度干扰样方,而因动物取食退笋的比率显著低于中度和轻度干扰样方。证明强度干扰样方的竹笋更容易受到外力机械损伤和生长停止退笋,而中度和轻度干扰的竹笋更倾向于动物取食致退,揭示了拐棍竹的生长是与震后不同程度的干扰相适应的。     

芒果花果期蓟马寄主植物间迁移对其种群数量增长的影响

【目的】为弄清芒果花果期蓟马种群数量增长是否受其寄主间迁移活动的影响。【方法】用粘虫板和直接调查定期定点监测了露地开放和罩网隔离条件下地面有草和地面无草及开放条件下果园周边东、南、西、北和果园中不同方位蓟马的种群消长情况。【结果】在芒果花果期,随着花期的到来,开放条件下有草和无草两处理诱集到的蓟马虫量显著增加;隔离条件下有草和无草两处理诱虫量除谢花至座果期有所增加外,其他时间诱虫量变化无显著差异;开放条件下的诱虫量始终显著高于隔离条件下的。谢花至座果期是整个花果期蓟马发生最高峰。粘虫板诱集到的虫量与芒果植株上的蓟马虫量呈显著的正相关趋势。芒果园周边南侧的虫量在初抽花穗期到初花期以及谢花到小果期两个时期显著高于果园中间蓟马虫量。【结论】蓟马种群数量在芒果花期的快速增长主要是由于蓟马从其他植物向芒果迁移造成的。     

云南芒果采后炭疽病病原菌的鉴定及室内生防菌的筛选

随着对云南芒果需求量的增加,其种植面积日趋扩大,并不断引入新品种,这也导致云南省芒果炭疽病害发生日趋加重。为了有针对性地开展芒果炭疽病的生物防治,采用组织块分离法分离芒果采后炭疽病病原菌,通过形态学观察初步鉴定,并遵循柯赫氏法则对病原菌进行验证。随后,利用rDNA-ITS序列和系统发育树分析明确病原菌的分类学地位。最后,采用5种生防细菌对病原菌进行拮抗试验。通过对芒果采后炭疽病病原菌进行分离鉴定,确定胶孢炭疽菌(Colletotrichum gloeosporioides)是引起云南芒果采后炭疽病的病原菌,该菌株内转录间隔区(internal transcribed spacer,ITS)序列长度为536 bp,登录号为MH744668;5株生防细菌对芒果炭疽病病原菌都有一定的抑菌作用,具有较好的生防开发潜能,其中抗生素溶杆菌L-44的抑菌效果最好,抑制率达53.7%。研究结果为云南省芒果采后病害的生物防治提供了新的思路。     

低温胁迫下芒果苗的受害症状及生理响应

以1年生芒果嫁接苗(台农1号)为试验材料,对人工气候箱设置2、1、0、-1、-2和-3℃共6个日最低温(Tmin),在日较差分别为15℃和6℃下处理1~3 d。观察处理后芒果苗的叶片变化情况,并取其叶片测定超氧岐化酶活性、可溶性糖、游离脯氨酸和可溶性蛋白含量,以及离子渗出率、丙二醛含量等生理生化指标。综合叶片受害症状、生理指标与Tmin及其持续时间的关系,确定芒果苗期的低温受害指标,并在5个地理移置点进行自然低温试验,验证和完善芒果苗的短期寒害指标。结果表明:极端最低气温低于-1℃时芒果苗死亡;极端最低气温高于3℃(≤3 d)芒果苗正常生长;极端最低气温在3~5℃持续9 d,芒果苗的叶片无受害症状。本文结果可为芒果种植区划及引扩种提供参考。     

苹果苗绿枝嫁接当年出圃

江苏省农林厅与宿迁县林果站合作,从1984年开始,进行了苹果苗绿枝嫁接当年出圃育苗技术试验。1985年在宿迁县5个乡20亩地试验,平均每亩当年出圃成苗6900余株,成苗平均高92.5厘米,茎粗0.87—1.13厘米,根粗在2毫米以上的达7.3条。1992年在其他四个果园育出成苗40多万株,经济效益十分显著。     

微繁殖薄荷、果树和欧洲越桔的田间试验

在芬兰Kemira Oy的Y.Holm及其同事和赫尔辛基大学对挥发油的质量和数量进行了二年的田间试验比较,受试的挥发油分别由微繁殖和无性繁殖薄荷株产生。他们报道,在第一年中,微繁殖株含有的薄荷醇和薄荷呋喃量高于无性繁殖株,然而,在第二年,上述两种植株的挥发油含量约为相同。意大利全国学术研究委员会的P.Rosati和波洛尼亚大学的D.Gaggioli对腋芽繁殖的欧洲樱桃和苹果品种的果园特性与标准繁殖树的果园特性进行了五年的试验比较。发现微繁殖的欧洲樱桃树的产率较低。组织培养树产生的果实为标准繁殖树的一半。产率降低是     

诱虫灯对芒果园主要害虫的监测效果评价

为评价诱虫灯在芒果园中对芒果主要害虫监测的作用效果,选用频振灯、黑光灯和LED灯等诱虫灯,采取灯光诱集与果园采样调查相结合的方法在海南省东方市岛西林场芒果园进行了芒果害虫的周年监测,比较了3种不同诱虫灯及调查采样收集到的芒果害虫的种类与数量。结果显示,在岛西林场芒果园,诱虫灯诱集到的害虫有29种,调查采集到害虫有24种,诱虫灯和调查采集收集同时监测到的害虫有21种,诱集到数量较多的有红脚丽金龟Anomala cupripes、芒果叶瘿蚊Erosomyia mangicola、绿额翠尺蛾Thalassodes proquadraria和灰白条小卷蛾Atgyroploce aprobola等,表明诱虫灯可用于这些芒果害虫的种类、分布与危害的监测,尤其是对红脚丽金龟、芒果叶瘿蚊、绿额翠尺蛾和灰白条小卷蛾等;明确可以应用频振灯、黑光灯和LED灯对红脚绿金龟等几种重要芒果害虫的年消长动态及种群数量进行监测;不同诱虫灯相比较,黑光灯对红脚丽金龟诱集效果最佳,LED灯对芒果叶瘿蚊诱集效果最好,频振灯对绿额翠尺蛾和灰白条小卷蛾诱集效果最佳。频振灯、黑光灯和LED灯对芒果害虫有良好的诱集作用,但对其天敌也有明显的诱杀作用;频振灯、黑光灯和LED灯所诱集昆虫种类的益害比分别为1∶3.17、1∶0.45和1∶1.23,频振灯对天敌的杀伤作用最小,黑光灯最大。     

热杀菌剂处理对“紫花”和“留香”杧果贮藏品质影响?

杧果采后生理研究

适期采收的果．采收时呼吸速率为２３．２ｍｇＣＯ２·ｋｇ（－１）ｈ（－１）果皮深绿色．果肉硬度＞３０Ｐ／ｃｍ２．置室温下（３０℃）８ｄ出现呼吸高峰,速率１３２．９ｍｇＣＯ２·ｋｇ（－１）ｈ（－１）,果皮的颜色黄绿各半．果肉硬度８—９Ｐ／ｃｍ２。采后１２—１４ｄ果实达到完熟,果皮金黄色,硬度＜３Ｐ／ｃｍ２,呼吸速率下降到３９—４５ｍｇＣＯ２·ｋｇ（－１）ｈ（－１）。试验结果还表明．可溶性糖、还原糖、非还原糖、固形物等含量．均在采后第５天明显增高,果皮从深绿转为淡绿色。可溶性糖在采后第１４天增至最高．达９．９２％,此时可滴定酸度下降至０．１４％．ＰＨ值升至６．１５,此时为果实的最佳供食状态．生产上可据此为制定果贮藏措施提供依据．     

香蕉芒果果皮中酶活性与炭疽病菌潜伏侵染的关系

在树上正生长发育的香蕉果实,随着果实长大,果皮中过氧化物酶(POD)和多酚氧化酶(PPO)活性不断升高。采后的香蕉和芒果果实的果皮中,POD和PPO活性变化与呼吸代谢相关。苯丙氨酸解氨酶(PAL)主要分布在果皮中,并随着果实成熟度的提高,其活性呈极显著下降趋势。感病果实的果皮中三种酶活性均比健康果皮高。说明果皮中三种酶活性的变化与炭疽菌的潜伏侵染有关。     

Control of mango seed weevils (Sternochetus mangiferae) using the African Weaver Ant (Oecophylla longinoda Latreille) (Hymenoptera: Formicidae)

The mango seed weevil, Sternochetus mangiferae (Fabricius), is among the major threats to mango production in Tanzania. Sternochetus mangiferae is primarily a quarantine pest whose presence inside the fruits restricts access to new foreign markets and leads to rejections of fruits destined for export. Management options for the pest have largely been dependent on field sanitation and application of synthetic insecticides with some success. Thus, more sustainable methods are needed to substitute insecticides, as this may also open up opportunities for organic markets. We conducted field experiments for two fruiting seasons in a mango plantation at Mlandizi, Kibaha district, along the coastal belt of Tanzania to evaluate and compare the effectiveness of the predaceous ant Oecophylla longinoda Latreille with foliar insecticidal sprays of Dudumida (70 WDG Imidacloprid) in controlling S. mangiferae. Mango seed weevil infestation was assessed fortnightly based on infestation marks on developing fruits starting eight weeks after fruit set to early ripening phase. Between 50 and 64 fruits were sampled, well labelled in jute bags, secured and transported to the laboratory at Kibaha Biological Control Unit (KBCU) for incubation at room temperature using rearing transparent containers. Two weeks later, the fruits were dissected and inspected for the presence of S. mangiferae developmental stages. Field and laboratory results indicated that fruits from trees that were occupied by O. longinoda and from those treated with insecticide showed significantly (P < 0.0001) lower incidences and infestation rates by S. mangiferae than from untreated trees. Furthermore, there were no significant differences between the insecticide and the weaver ant treatments. We conclude that in our experiments, O. longinoda is an efficient biological control agent for a long‐term control programme and is comparable to insecticide (Dudumida) in suppressing S. mangiferae and may be used in Tanzanian mango plantations.     

水杨酸对芒果炭疽病的诱导抗性作用

大田试验结果表明,水杨酸叶面喷雾可减轻芒果炭疽病的发生,100—200mgL-1均有极显著的效果,病情指数分别比对照下降了23％－41．1％,以浓度为100mgL-1的效果最好,而在马铃薯培养基（PDA）中平板培养时,100mgL-1水杨酸对芒果炭疽菌菌丝生长和孢子萌发均无抑制作用．因此认为,水杨酸处理芒果后感病指数下降,是由于水杨酸处理提高了芒果幼果的抗病性,即幼果产生了诱导抗性而引起的．     

Impact of the Biological Control Agent Gyranusoidea tebygi Noyes (Hymenoptera: Encyrtidae) on the Mango Mealybug, Rastrococcus invadens Williams (Homoptera: Pseudococcidae), in Benin

The distribution of Rastrococcus invadens among different host plants and the impact of the mealybug on mango growth were investigated on 2067 trees in three surveys across all the ecological zones of Benin. The first survey started in 1989, less than 1 year after the first release of the exotic parasitoid Gyranusoidea tebygi. Within 3 years, G. tebygi had colonized the entire area of infestation, and was found on practically all infested mango trees as well as other infested host plants. By 1991, the incidence of R. invadens on the secondary host plants had declined significantly. The percentage of infested mango trees declined from 31.0% in 1989 to 17.5% in 1991, highest populations being found in the coastal savanna. During the same period, the mean percentage of infested mango trees having indigenous predators declined from 42.3 to 20.9%. Average mealybug densities declined steadily from 9.7 females/48 leaves in 1989, with 3.2% of all mango trees having densities above 100 mealybugs, to 6.4 females/48 leaves in 1991, with 1.3% of all trees having densities above 100 mealybugs. In multiple regression analyses, based on 23 meteorological, agronomic and plant variables, the duration of the parasitoid's presence proved to be a major factor. It influenced mealybug population densities and sooty mould incidence, which, in turn, affected the production of new leaves. In all analyses, the impact of rainfall, for example, on the sooty mould or the mealybug was less important than the effect of G. tebygi. The present study demonstrates for the first time on a large scale the impact of G. tebygi on R. invadens and, indirectly, on its main host plant, mango.     

SENSORY EVALUATION OF MANGO DRINKS USING FUZZY LOGIC

Three brands of ready to serve mango drinks namely 'Frooti', 'Real'and 'Slice'that are available in the market were used for sensory evaluation along with the vacuum dried reconstituted mango powder drink. Mango powder was produced from mango pulp of 'Totapuri'variety with addition of Maltodextrin, Glycerol monostearate and Tri calcium phosphate at rate of 0.62, 0.015 and 0.015 kg per kg dry mango solid, respectively. These ingredients were added for getting a nonsticky free flowing powder. The pulp along with the ingredients was dried in a vacuum drier at 70 ± 2C and 710–750 mm Hg vacuum. Fuzzy logic analysis was used for finding out the best of the three market mango drinks. BrimA index (a criterion for acceptance of fruit juice) and total solid (kg per kg drink) of the reconstituted mango drink was adjusted based on the BrimA index and total solid values of the best market drink. The reconstituted mango drink satisfied the quality criteria set for 'mouth feel'but not the color, smell and taste.     

Effect of repeated severe pruning on endogenous polyamine content in hazelnut trees

Endogenous polyamine content was determined in leaves and buds of adult and repeatedly severe pruned hazelnut trees ( Corvlus avellana L.). Polyamine content in leaves from shoots obtained by forced outgrowth of branches taken from adult and pruned trees was also determined. Variations of polyamine levels in relation to pruning treatments were observed in all the analysed, tissues. Free polyamines increased in response to pruning treatments, mostly due to an increase in free putrescine. Free spermidine and spermine seemed to decrease with pruning intensity, whereas bound polyamines did not seem to correlate with treatments. Significantly, in all the analysed tissues the putrescine to spermidine plus spermine ratio increased in the free polyamine fraction. The results indicate that polyamine metabolism could play a role as a physiological marker for juvenility and rejuvenation in relation to cloning of woody plants. The possible role of polyamines in mediating and/or regulating phase change and reinvigoration is discussed.     

Emergy and eco-exergy evaluation of four forest restoration modes in southeast China

Four different forest restoration modes (Acacia mangium plantation, mixed-native species plantation, conifer plantation and Eucalyptus plantation) were evaluated using Energy System Theory and the emergy synthesis method. In addition, the eco-exergies of the four forest restoration modes were calculated, and combined with emergy and empower density to explore the restoration and self-organization efficiencies of these modes. The results showed that the two plantations of exotic species, especially the Acacia mangium plantation, were best for biomass accumulation and soil improvement, whereas the two plantations of native species, especially the mixed-native plantation, were more efficient in capturing the available natural resources. Transformity is an important emergy index for the evaluation of system efficiency, because it takes both input and output into account. In subtropical plantations, trees mainly contribute to eco-exergy, whereas herbs and shrubs mainly contribute to specific eco-exergy. The c-value Paradox does exist in conifer species in this study, and it could affect the eco-exergy evaluation. The joint use of eco-exergy and emergy analysis is helpful in comparing both different and similar kinds of ecosystems.     

SENSORY QUALITY STUDIES ON MANGO AROMA CONCENTRATE DURING STORAGE

Aroma concentrates from Alphonso and Totapuri mango pulps were prepared and the aroma stripped pulps were concentrated two folds. Ready to serve beverages were prepared from fresh mango pulps and pulp concentrates by adding different levels of aroma concentrates. Sensory evaluation of beverages showed that in the case of Alphonso mango addition of 50%, 75% and 100% aroma concentrate gave comparable quality while with Totapuri only 50% level showed comparable quality. The aroma stripped pulp concentrates were canned as such and after mixing with 50% aroma concentrates and stored at 25 × 5°C. Aroma concentrates were bottled and stored at 2°C. At different intervals of storage, beverages were prepared and evaluated. The results showed that throughout the storage period, beverages prepared from mango concentrates to which 50% aroma was added before canning was superior to those prepared from aroma stripped canned pulp concentrates to which aroma was added at the time of preparation of beverage indicating the effect of mango pulp on aroma stability.
