遥感数据支持下不同地表覆盖的区域蒸散

将地表能量平衡系统(SEBS)扩展成遥感日蒸散估算模型,利用MODIS遥感数据估算了黄淮海地区的区域蒸散,并在地理信息系统的支持下分析了不同地表覆盖下的区域蒸散统计分布特征.在缺乏各地表覆盖类型相应蒸散量实测值进行对比的情况下,以2001年4月17日估算的日蒸散量为例,通过各地表覆盖类型日蒸散量间的相互对比分析表明,SEBS估算的区域日蒸散量具有一定的合理性.分析结果表明：在黄淮海地区,荒地具有最低的蒸散量;森林、灌木、草地等地表覆盖类型具有中等的蒸散量;而水体、湿地以及耕地具有较高的蒸散量.可能由于包含绿地和水面,城镇用地的蒸散量也较高.土壤含水量的空间差异性导致森林、灌木、草地和耕地等地表覆盖类型的蒸散量具有明显的空间差异性.耕地蒸散量的空间差异性可以为制定合理、高效的农田灌溉计划提供指示作用.SEBS遥感日蒸散模型的局限性在于有可能低估水体和湿地等地表覆盖类型的蒸散量.     

Melatonin and schistosomal antigens ameliorate the anti-oxidative and biochemical response to Schistosoma mansoni infection in hamster

The present study was designed to investigate the potential protective effect of melatonin as an antioxidant separately or in combination with antigens (cercarial; CAP or soluble worm; SWAP) against Schistosoma mansoni infection in hamsters. Each hamster was sensitized with an initial immunization of 0.6 ml of the extracted antigen (30 μg protein/mL). After four days,a second injection of 0.4 mL was given (20 μg protein/mL). Then,each hamster was exposed to 260±20 S.mansoni cercariae followed with melatonin...     

被子植物花序的演化趋势(下)

包含两个不同重叠式样的花序在被子植物几个较进化的类群中,花序由两种式样组成,这两种在各自的构造和发育上,都有根木的区别,菊科和禾本科就是最好的例子。在菊科中,基本单位是头状花序,花无柄,长在花序托上,周围由特化的苞片形成花序总苞,向顶式发育。这些构造是由总状花序经过伞房花序的中间状态,由于简化而演化出的(图1.M)。许多菊科植物中,包括最一般的向日葵族 Heliantheae 的种,头状花序是单生的,或由     

中国大陆的梅衣科地衣Ⅴ.球针叶属和球针黄叶属

球针叶属Bulbothrix和球针黄叶属Relicina地衣区别于其它梅衣的主要特征是裂片边缘具有膨大似葱头状的缘毛。球针叶属地衣的上表面灰色,含有黑茶渍素（atranorin）,而球针黄叶属地衣的上表面为黄绿色含有松萝酸（usnic acid）。经过形态学与化学研究,承认中国大陆有球针叶属地衣5种和球针黄叶属地衣2种。其中戈氏球叶B. goebelii,烟草球针叶B. tabacina,玄球针黄叶R. abstrusa和悉尼球针黄叶R. sydneyensis等4种为中国大陆首次记载。云南球针叶B. yunnana为中国特有种。本文报道的7个种均出现在中国长江以南地区,这与球针叶属和球针黄叶属地衣呈热带,亚热带的世界分布格局相吻合。     

中国南部石灰岩濒危植物的初步研究

本文所说中国南部石灰岩地区主要指广西、云南、贵州三省的石灰岩地区,这一地区以其植物的多样性和岩溶特有性而闻名。本文对这一地区的植被和植物保护现状、自然屎护区状况、植物濒危原因筹进行了初步考察和研究。     

棉花优异纤维品质性状的双列杂交分析

利用5个具有不同纤维品质性状的品种(系)配制完全双列杂交组合20个,通过亲本和F1的2年随机区组试验,结果为除纤维整齐度受环境等因素影响较大,其余性状主要受遗传因素控制;在与环境的互作中,纤维强度和长度的互作效应小,麦克隆值的加性和母体效应及伸长率的显性效应与环境的互作较大,均达到了显著水平;遗传主效中,所有的研究性状不存在母体效应,以加性为主;强度与长度加性遗传率高,分别占77．6％和73．2％;麦克隆值的加性效应占45．2％,显性效应所占的比例在纤维性状中最高,为11．5％。纤维品质性状的群体平均优势仅麦克隆值的较高(3．2％),达到了显著水平,其余性状的优势仅为-0．4％-0．7％。纤维品质性状的遗传结果与杂种优势一致。在杂种优势利用时,可以通过双亲平均值的高低来预测F1的纤维品质表现。纤维强度、长度和细度的加性遗传率高,这些性状均可以早代选择。     

Isolation and Characterization of 2'-amino-modified RNA Aptamers for Human TNFα

Human tumor necrosis factor a (hTNFa), a pleiotropic cytokine with activities ranging from host defense mechanisms in infection and injury to severe toxicity in septic shock or other related diseases, is a promising target for drug screening. Using the SELEX (systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment) process, we isolated oligonucleotide ligands (aptamers) with high affinities for hTNFa. Aptamers were selected from a starting pool of 40 randomized sequences composed of about 1015 RNA molecules. Representative aptamers were truncated to the minimal length with high affinity for hTNFa and were further modified by replacement of 2'-OH with 2'-F and 2'-NH2 at all ribopurine positions. These modified RNA aptamers were resistant to nuclease. The specificity of these aptamers for hTNFa was confirmed, and their activity to inhibit the cytotoxicity of hTNFa on mouse L929 cells was determined. Results demonstrated that four 2'-NH2-modified aptamers bound to hTNFa with high affinity and blocked the     

中国尾甲螨总科的新纪录和异懒甲螨属一新种(蜱螨亚纲:甲螨亚目)

蛋鸡J亚群禽白血病的分子生物学诊断

根据J亚群白血病病毒(ALV-J)原型株HPRS-103的序列设计了一对针对外源性ALV-J引物H5和H7,从发生ML病死鸡的肿瘤、骨髓、肝脏、脾脏和输卵管组织中提取DNA作为模板,经PCR扩增得到长度为545bp的片段,对其序列进行测定后,与ALV-J原型株HPRS-103的序列进行了比较,发现其核苷酸同源性为97．4％,所编码氨基酸的同源性为96．1％。该片段含有ALV-J gp85编码基因的部分序列和ALV-J pol基因的部分序列,从分子水平上证实了蛋鸡发生J亚群禽白血病,进一步证明了此前根据病理学观察、免疫组化及免疫荧光诊断的结果。这是首次从分子水平上证明蛋用型鸡发生J亚群禽白血病。     

Pathways of assessing agroecosystem health and agroecosystem management

Intrusive agriculture development, searching for higher profitability, has inflicted permanent damage to agroecosystems. Rapid deterioration of structure and functional properties in agroecosystems has intensified the need for research on agroecosystem health and agroecosystem management. This paper describes the concept of agroecosystem health which plays an important conceptual role in evaluating agroecosystem and agricultural research. Firstly, the development of agroecosystem health research is reviewed, and agroecosystem health from various dimensions is provided. Then, the methods and general criterias of agroecosystem health assessment are outlined, and a model for evaluating agroecosystem health is established. Finally, pathways of agroecosystem management from a holistic dimension are proposed to promote agroecosystem health and provide a scientific basis for making science-based policy decisions and formulating new plans in agricultural development.
