环境条件对乐果残留动态影响的初报

乐果系一种高效低毒的内吸剂,目前广泛应用于防治蚜虫,红蜘蛛等害虫。但对这些发生期长,繁殖力强的害虫来说,药剂残效期的长短与实际防治效果有密切关系。一般报导乐果残效期较短,例如(1960)指出仅一周左右。不过也有报导在果树及棉花上,药效可维持2—3星期(Chilwell et al.,1960;Dauterman et al.,1960)。我们前一试验用P~(32)乐果处理棉株叶部,也发现叶面的药剂消失很快,至第七天几乎全部消失殆尽,     

几种环境因素对两种人体蠕形螨生活力的影响

本文就寄生人体的毛囊蠕形螨和皮脂蠕形螨在实验室条件下,对其在各种温度、湿度和酸碱度中的存活时间进行了观察。 在36℃,高湿的环境中,毛囊蠕形螨和皮脂蠕形螨成虫的存活时间分别达94和95小时。高温与干燥对其生存不利。两种蠕形螨对酸性环境的耐受力都强于碱性环境,特别皮脂蠕形螨更为突出。     

影响中华鳖免疫应答因素的探讨--免疫原(菌苗)与环境条件

通过比较19C-4-2,142G,SL63,Tio63以及Fii32等中华鳖的6个致病菌株的免疫原性,认为T3最强,当它的给予量在50-100×108cfu/mL时,中华鳖的免疫保护率和血清间接凝集抗体效价均达较高水平;低于和高于这个量,中华鳖的免疫应答都会有所降低;当其超过160×108cfu/mL时,则会表现出明显的免疫耐受现象.中华鳖最适宜的免疫温度是25-30℃,水温低于10℃,它的免疫应答反应就大大降低.此外良好的水质,充裕的光照也是提高中华鳖免疫应答水平的一个重要因素.     

ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS AND THE GROWTH OF NATIVE ORCHIDS

The environments in which native orchids grow were examined in terms of factors which might determine the survival and reproduction of the various species. Soil tests were made for 34 species now known to be growing in Rhode Island. Soil reaction appears to be related to growth of orchids, but other factors in the environment were found to be of equal if not greater importance. These include light, moisture, temperature and destruction by animals. Fertility was not found to be limiting under the conditions observed.     

Cd、Fe及其复合污染对烟草叶片几项生理指标的影响

本文通过盆栽和大田模拟试验,研究了Cd,Fe,Cd+Fe,Fe+Cd处理下烟草红花大金元(Nicotiana tabacurm L.)叶片的几项生理指标的变化情况。试验表明:烟草叶片叶绿素a、叶绿素b、叶绿素a+b含量均随Cd处理浓度的增加而下降,随Fe处理浓度的增加而上升。总烟碱含量随Cd处理浓度的增加(0—100ppm)而下降,Cd 150ppm时略有上升,随Fe处理浓度的增加而上升。蛋白质含量随Cd处理浓度的增加而上升,随Fe处理浓度的增加而下降。烟草的3个生理指标表明,Cd抑制Fe对生理指标的作用,Fe抑制Cd对它们的作用,Cd与Fe相互拮抗。Cd处理的烟草叶片过氧化物酶活性和细胞膜透性的测定结果表明,过氧化物酶活性和细胞膜透性均随Cd处理浓度的增加而上升。

ENVIRONMENTAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL FACTORS INFLUENCING THE NATURAL DISTRIBUTION OF EVERGREEN AND DECIDUOUS ERICACEOUS SHRUBS ON NORTHEAST- AND SOUTHWEST-FACING SLOPES OF THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIAN MOUNTAINS. II. WATER RELATIONS

Three species of shrubs (Ericaceae) were found to segregate upon the northeast and southwest slopes of spur ridges on Brush Mountain, in southwestern Virginia. Rhododendron maximum was found only in valleys and lower northeast slopes, Rhododendron periclymenoides = R. nudiflorum) was found on northeast slopes while Kalmia latifolia was most abundant on southwest slopes. Previous vegetation studies indicated that these partially segregated distributions were related to irradiance and water availability. In field studies of water potential, R. periclymenoides had the lowest diurnal leaf water potentials and the largest seasonal variation in midday leaf water potential. Kalmia latifolia had the highest leaf conductance in field and phytotron experiments. Rhododendron maximum had the greatest seasonal osmotic adjustment followed by R. periclymenoides and K. latifolia. In phytotron experiments, the photosynthetic capacity of R. maximum was the most sensitive to water stress followed by R. periclymenoides and K. latifolia. Kalmia latifolia was able to modify its conductance rates to reduce water loss and maintain constant leaf water potential minimizing photosynthetic inhibition. Rhododendron periclymenoides showed extreme luxury spending of water indicated by high conductance and low photosynthesis. The ecophysiological responses to water and irradiance provided an explanation for the distributions of the three species. For example, R. maximum leaves are sensitive to elevated irradiance, and carbon gain is strongly influenced by water stress. Thus, R. maximum will perform best in low irradiance environments with ample water, such as valley sites. Each species had a unique set of adaptations for performing best in their optimum habitat.     

ENVIRONMENTAL AND PHYSIOLOGICAL FACTORS INFLUENCING THE NATURAL DISTRIBUTION OF EVERGREEN AND DECIDUOUS ERICACEOUS SHRUBS ON NORTHEAST AND SOUTHWEST SLOPES OF THE SOUTHERN APPALACHIAN MOUNTAINS. I. IRRADIANCE TOLERANCE

Deciduous and evergreen species are segregated on northeast and southwest slopes of the southern Appalachian Mountains. The segregated distributions of three ericaceous shrubs (Rhododendron maximum valley positions; Rhododendron periclymenoides on northeast slopes; Kalmia latifolia on southwest slopes) were compared to the respective irradiance environments. Growth patterns of field plants, and photosynthetic acclimation of each species to three irradiance treatments in a phytotron were studied. Rhododendron maximum, an evergreen species, was found to be most sensitive to high radiation. In phytotron experiments, quantum yield, light saturated photosynthetic capacity, photosynthesis per chlorophyll, and water use efficiency decreased at high ambient irradiance for R. maximum. These characteristics limit the growth of R. maximum on high irradiance southwestern slopes. Both K. latifolia and R. periclymenoides were able to improve their photosynthetic performance at high ambient irradiance. Rhododendron periclymenoides, a deciduous species, was found to continue increasing leaf conductance at high irradiance without an increase in photosynthesis indicating a possible limitation by water in high light environments such as southwest slopes. Kalmia latifolia, an evergreen species, had reduced photosynthetic capacity and reduced water use efficiency when grown in low irradiance conditions which coincides with the higher K. latifolia abundance on high light, southwestern slopes.
