鼎湖山植被演替过程中椎栗和荷木种群的动态

 森林群落的演替过程,是以各优势种群的动态为其表现特征的。本项研究系统地研究了鼎湖山森林植被演替过程各优势种群的动态。本文研究演替顶极建群种椎栗和荷木等阳生性种群的动态,结果表明其生态位宽度在演替过程中由入侵针叶林起逐渐开始增大,至阳生性为优势常绿阔叶树阶段时为最大,此后渐渐下降,但不会下降为零。在其演变过程中,这些阳生性的种群格局由集群分布演变为趋于随机分布;其与早期先锋种马尾松树种的生态位宽度重叠值和种间联结值由高向低转变,而与中生性树种却有较高的生态位重叠值和种间联结值,但这两方面的值在后期有减弱的趋向。这些结果一方面说明该种群的先锋特性,另一方面也说明由于成熟群落的循环更新使群落结构出现不均匀与镶嵌,使这些阳生性先锋种群 在演替的后期仍以一定数量存在。     

人粒细胞集落刺激因子（hG－CSF）cDNA3′－UTR对其表达的影响

利用人粒细胞集落刺激因子（ｈＧ－ＣＳＦ）ｃＤＮＡ３′端非翻译区（３′－ＵＴＲ）中存在的ＤｒａⅠ酶切位点,通过部分酶切与完全酶切,删除３′－ＵＴＲ不同长度,构建了四种ｈＧ－ＣＳＦｃＤＮＡ瞬时重组表达质粒。转染ＣＯＳ－７细胞后,生物活性测定结果提示,ｈＧ－ＣＳＦｃＤＮＡ３′－ＵＴＲ对其表达起负调控作用,其关键性序列位于紧接终止密码子ＴＧＡ下游的６５ｂｐ范围内,３′－ＵＴＲ对ｈＧ－ＣＳＦｃＤＮＡ表达的影响与转录水平的差别有一定关系。     

大鼠大脑皮层中钙调神经磷酸酶活力的时空变化

以ＰＮＰＰ为底物测定了超离心制备的大鼠出生后早期和成年大脑皮层亚细胞各组分中钙调神经磷酸酶的活力。实验结果表明：（ｌ）钙调神经磷酸酶活力广泛地存在于胞液和突触部分,并且各亚细胞组分有明显差异。成年大鼠大脑皮层中ＣａＮ活力相对最高水平是在突触体,突触质,胞液,重的和轻的突触膜部分。（２）大鼠大脑皮层突触体中ＣａＮ活力在出生后第２周和第３周出现高峰的平台期,这与突触发生的高峰期是一致的。在胞液和重的突触膜中ＣａＮ活力最高水平是在出生后的第７ｄ,而在突触质和轻的突触膜中是在第２０ｄ。总之,这些发现证实,在脑发育期间,ＣａＮ活力是依照区域和时间性控制的,提示ＣａＮ可能参与了突触功能作用。     

Epipolarization Microscopic Immunogold Assay: a Combination of Immunogold Silver Staining, Enzyme-Linked-Immunosorbent Assay and Epipolarization Microscopy

We describe a new immunoassay which combines an immunosorbent assay, Immunogold silver staining and epipolarization microscopy. Our new assay procedure features multiple samples on a single microscope slide, and high sensitivity of epipolarization microscope for detection of silver-enhanced colloidal gold as a final immunoassay product. We call the new immunoassay “on slide immunogold assay” (OSIGA). This new method uses biotinylated antibody and streptavidin-gold reaction with silver enhancement technique. With OSIGA it is possible to investigate 30 samples on a single microscopic slide. Our preliminary studies used 10-20 μ1 samples and detected nanogram quantities of a standardized protein solution. Unlike enzyme linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA), which has a limited time for reading the final color products, the OSIGA specimens can be dried or resin mounted for longer storage and future reference.     

Plant growth and nutrient uptake characteristics of Fe-deficiency chlorosis susceptible and resistant subclovers

The objective of this study was to evaluate the growth and nutrient-uptake characteristics of Fe-deficiency resistant and susceptible subclover (Trifolium subterraneum L., T. yanninicum Katzn. and Morley, T. brachcalycinum Katzn. and Morley) cultivars on a calcareous soil. Ten subclover cultivars showing varying susceptibilities to Fe-deficiency chlorosis (Karridale, Nangeela, Geraldton, Mt. Barker, Woogenellup, Larisa, Trikkala, Rosedale, Koala and Clare) were grown on a low-Fe, calcareous soil (Petrocalcic Paleustoll) under moist (18% water content, 85% of water holding capacity) and water-saturated conditions using a Cone-tainer^® culture system. Chlorosis and its correlation with growth traits and mineral nutrition of the 10 cultivars were examined. The Fe-deficiency susceptibilities of the 10 cultivars decreased in the above order under the moist condition, but in slightly different order under the saturated condition. Shoot and root dry weights, total dry weight, and root-to-shoot ratio were each negatively correlated with chlorosis under both soil-moisture conditions, as was total shoot content of P, Ca, Fe, Mn and Zn. Shoot P and Fe concentrations were each positively correlated with chlorosis under the moist soil condition. Iron and Cu utilization efficiencies (biomass per unit weight of nutrient) in the shoot were each negatively correlated with chlorosis under the moist soil condition. These results suggest that there may be several characteristics of Fe-deficiency chlorosis resistance in subclovers, such as a more effective soil-Fe mobilizing mechanism(s), more balanced nutrition, lower required Fe concentration in the shoot, higher shoot-Fe utilization efficiency, and higher root/shoot ratio under Fe-deficiency stress conditions.     

甘蓝型油菜下胚轴原生质体培养的研究

从甘蓝型油菜下胚轴分离纯化原生质体。种子萌发时进行光照处理对原生质体产率影响不大,但可提高其活力。对液体浅层、固体平板和“琼脂岛”3种培养方法进行比较,结果“琼脂岛”法效果最好,不但细胞分裂速度快,而且克隆形成频率高。再生的愈伤组织转到分化培养基上后迅速分化出芽。诱导生根后进行移栽,生长状况良好。

cDNA approaches to isolation of the mouse mutant weaver gene

The mouse autosomal recessive mutant gene weaver (wv) results in abnormalities in cerebellum, substantia nigra and testis. Although a subtracted cDNA library prepared by removing P31 (wv/wv) sequences from a P1 (wv/+) library should contain mainly nonrepetitive neonatal sequences, unfortunately, repetitive sequences still appear during screening. Two clones, one repetitive, the other not, are used to illustrate the problems encountered in attempting to isolate the weaver gene from a subtracted cDNA library.Special issue dedicated to Dr. Sidney Ochs.
