Hyperpolarization response of an identified neuron of Planobarius corneus mollusks to several cholinomimetic substances]

Two kinds of responses to cholinomimetics were found on the identified neuron (P-2) of Planorbarius corneus pedal ganglion using microelectrode technique. Nicotinomimetics caused depolization whereas some muscarinomimetics caused hyperpolarization of the neuron membrane. Acetylcholine usually depolarized the neuron membrane but after the blockade of nicotinic receptors with tubocurarine one can reveal a hyperpolarizing action of acetylcholine. These findings suggest that two kinds of receptors exist on the P-2 neuron membrane and these receptors differ both in pharmacological characteristics and in ionic permeability changes they control.     

含铬重组液激活部分缺失金属原子簇的钼铁蛋白的研究

棕色固氮菌（Ａｚｏｔｏｂａｃｔｅｒ ｖｉｎｅｌａｎｄｉｉ）固氮酶钼铁蛋白经邻菲口罗啉和Ｏ２ 处理后,变为部分缺失ＦｅＭｏｃｏ 和Ｐ－ｃｌｕｓｔｅｒ的失活蛋白。与由Ｋ２ＣｒＯ４、高柠檬酸铁、Ｎａ２Ｓ和二硫苏糖醇组成的重组液保温后,处理蛋白对乙炔和质子还原的活性都得以显著恢复;然而,它的吸收光谱和圆二色谱虽有明显恢复,但仍与还原钼铁蛋白有所不同。这表明,激活蛋白中也许存在功能与钼铁蛋白相似,而结构则有所差异的含铬（ＣｒＦｅ）蛋白

火干扰对小兴安岭毛赤杨沼泽温室气体排放动态影响及其影响因素

利用静态箱-气相色谱法,对小兴安岭轻度火烧毛赤杨沼泽CH4、CO2、N2O生长季排放通量进行研究.结果表明:火烧使毛赤杨沼泽生长季CH4排放通量提高485.2％,CO2和N2O排放通量分别下降45.5％、24.8％.火烧未改变CH4季节性排放规律,但改变了CO2、N2O季节性变化规律.火烧样地CH4排放通量与土壤15cm温度间存在显著正相关性关系而与水位相关性不显著,火烧样地CO2排放与土壤0-30 cm温度呈显著或极显著正相关,与水位极显著负相关.对照样地CO2排放通量与土壤0-15 cm温度呈显著或极显著正相关,与水位极显著负相关,火烧使毛赤杨沼泽CH4排放源的强度增强,CO2、N2O的排放消弱,全球温室潜势下降约为43.34％.     

百合科扭柄花属一个新的染色体基数

对中国云南西部和西北部分布的腋花扭柄花Streptopus simplex的4个居群进行了细胞学研究。生长在云南西北香格里拉县(原中甸县)碧塔海和小中甸冷杉林中的腋花扭柄花两个居群的体细胞染色体数目为2n=2x=18,而生长在高黎贡山的福贡县片马和贡山县的灌丛中的植物体细胞染色体数目则为2n=2x=14。2n=14为腋花扭柄花一个新的染色体数目,x=7为扭柄花属一个新的染色体基数。香格里拉碧塔海和小中甸两个居群的核型公式分别为2n=4m+8sm+4st和2n=8m+2sm+6st,染色体逐渐变小;贡山和福贡片马两个居群的核型公式分别为2n=14=4m+10sm和2n=14=7m+7sm,其中第一对中部着丝粒的染色体显著大于其余染色体。由于x=8是扭柄花属最常见的染色体基数,因此可认为x=8是腋花扭柄花的染色体原始基数,x=7的数目是衍生的;x=7居群染色体的一条大染色体可能是由x=8的染色体的两条st型染色体的着丝粒发生了罗伯逊易位而来。     

基于生态足迹模型的延边林区可持续发展评价

生态足迹是评价可持续发展状况和能力的重要指标之一。本文以统计年鉴和林业年鉴为主要数据来源,对延边林区1996~2002年的生态足迹进行了计算和分析。结果表明,该区人均生态足迹逐年下降,人均生态承载力波动较小,而人均生态盈余逐年增长。人均万元GDP生态足迹逐年递减,同西部地区相当,而明显高于东部。人均林地生态足迹变化平稳,天然林保护工程实施前后林地生产足迹和林地出口足迹的平均值分别降低了0.341和0.327 hm2.人-1,降幅分别为46.32%和54.94%。延边区域和林业的发展是可持续的,天然林保护工程的实施有助于增强其可持续发展能力,但同林业发达国家相比,仍有很大差距。依靠科技,提高单位面积林地产量和资源利用率,合理经营和管理森林生态系统是今后的工作重点。

厦门港纤小裸甲藻（Takayama pulchellum）的形态、生长及分子特征

在2003年厦门港发生的一次裸甲藻赤潮中分离得到了纤小裸甲藻（Takayama pulchellum）,并对其形态学进行了光镜和电镜的观察,该株藻细胞个体较小,长约20～23μm,宽约14～20μm.藻细胞外表卵圆形,细胞上壳有一条明显的S形顶沟,顶沟是特异性的反S形.与模式种相比,这一株裸甲藻细胞核更靠上部,大部分细胞横沟都没有偏移.纤小裸甲藻在盐度为28时比生长率最大,达到0.42,随着盐度下降,比生长率也跟着下降,当盐度下降到16时,生长率为0.盐度范围在8～16时,超过80%的藻类能存活48h;当盐度低于4时,生长率和存活率都为0.24～27℃是纤小裸甲藻的最适生长温度,比生长率超过0.50,当温度升到30℃时,生长率急剧下降到约0.35.毒素测定结果显示该株裸甲藻不含麻痹性贝毒和神经性贝毒.本株纤小裸甲藻大亚基D1～D2区序列长度为721bp,与基因库中该种的一株相似种同源性超过99%.对18株裸甲藻转录间隔区（ITS）序列建立的系统进化树显示,纤小裸甲藻和Karlodinium micrum的距离最近,通过ITS序列建立的系统发育树大致能够把Akashiwo属、Karenia属、Karlodinium属和Takayama属与Gymnodinium属区分开来.     

Ruminococcus bromii is a keystone species for the degradation of resistant starch in the human colon

The release of energy from particulate substrates such as dietary fiber and resistant starch (RS) in the human colon may depend on the presence of specialist primary degraders (or ‘keystone species'') within the microbial community. We have explored the roles of four dominant amylolytic bacteria found in the human colon in the degradation and utilization of resistant starches. Eubacterium rectale and Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron showed limited ability to utilize RS2- and RS3-resistant starches by comparison with Bifidobacterium adolescentis and Ruminococcus bromii. In co-culture, however, R. bromii proved unique in stimulating RS2 and RS3 utilization by the other three bacterial species, even in a medium that does not permit growth of R. bromii itself. Having previously demonstrated low RS3 fermentation in vivo in two individuals with undetectable populations of R. bromii-related bacteria, we show here that supplementation of mixed fecal bacteria from one of these volunteers with R. bromii, but not with the other three species, greatly enhanced the extent of RS3 fermentation in vitro. This argues strongly that R. bromii has a pivotal role in fermentation of RS3 in the human large intestine, and that variation in the occurrence of this species and its close relatives may be a primary cause of variable energy recovery from this important component of the diet. This work also indicates that R. bromii possesses an exceptional ability to colonize and degrade starch particles when compared with previously studied amylolytic bacteria from the human colon.
