鄂西南香蒲科、黑三棱科、眼子菜科和茨藻科植物区系特征

本文在采集标本基础上,结合分析大量有关资料,讨论了鄂西南香蒲科等四科植物区系特征。结果表明:1.区系组成包括5属20种2变种1杂种。其中有1新种1新变种和3个湖北分布新记录。2.区系种类丰富,起源古老,对湖北同类区系具有代表性。3.有一定比例的特有成分(8.70%)。4.区系地理成分复杂多样,但主要具有东亚亚热带一温带分布(26.09%)和世界性分布(26.09%)的性质。5.本区四科植物区系主要与处于我国地貌第三级阶梯上的省区发生密切联系。其区系分区,在亚区的划分上与陆生种子植物相同。     

蕨类植物的黄酮类成分及其系统学意义

蕨类植物的黄酮类成分以比较原始的结构类型为主,少数类群也拥有相当进化的类型。双黄酮,黄酮醇,白花色甙及原花色甙对于蕨类植物的系统学研究具有重要意义。化学证据表明小叶型蕨类较大叶型真蕨类原始,厚囊蕨类较薄囊蕨类原始等。     

关于苔藓植物染色体研究方法的探讨

目前我国在苔藓植物染色体方面的研究工作尚属空白,其难度也较种子植物要大。作者通过参阅闰外文献,并对数十种不同类型的苔藓植物进行了实验摸索。本文较全面地介绍了包括取材(即孢蒴、茎尖、生长点等)、固定、染色和压片等成功的方法技术问题,以期更多的学者开展该领域的研究工作,促进我国在苔藓植物染色体方面的研究工作。     

贵州省赤水县桫椤调查初报

国家一级重点保护植物桫椤,目前世界上少数国家尚存,国内除华南、西南地区及台湾等少数省份外亦不多见。其中贵州省赤水县桫椤不仅面积广,且数量多,生长旺。据不完全统计,全县35个乡中,有20个乡有分布,面积     

生态系统与耗散结构

1977年,比利时著名科学家伊·普里高津成功地提出耗散结构理论,荣获了诺贝尔奖。普里高津的理论告诉我们:“一个远离平衡态的复杂系统,各元素的作用具有非线性特点,正是这种非线性的相关机制,导致了大量离子的协同动作,突变而产生有序结构。”普里高津的耗散结构理论,研究系统怎样从混沌无序的动态向稳定有序的结构组织演化及其规律,故也称为非平衡系统自组织理论。这一系统理论的奇葩,对于生态系统的深入研究将起到不可估量的作用。同时,这一理论使我们对生态     

在琼脂双向扩散中植物病毒非特异带的产生和消除

检测植物病毒,通常采用琼脂双向扩散、对流免疫电泳和酶联免疫吸附测定(ELIsA)等三种方法,而在研究一些植物病毒之间的亲缘关系方面,琼脂双向扩散则能提供其他方法所不能提供的免疫学图谱。我们在做琼脂双向扩散时发现,植物病毒的某些寄主与提纯病毒时所用磷酸盐缓冲液之间常能形成非特异带。本文报道非特异带的干扰现象及其消除方法。     

巨细胞病毒中性红斑定量试验与高滴度病毒的制备

在巨细胞病毒(CMV)的研究中常需对病毒定量。CMV需低滴度传代,否则会产生没有感染性的缺损病毒颗粒;CMV的抗原性受其感染量的影响;检测CMV中和抗体或纯化病毒都需具备病毒空斑定量基础。另外,制备高感染滴度的无细胞病毒(游离病毒)是对CMV进行分子生物学研究的前提。本文建立了CMV微量板法中性红斑定量技术并比较了几种制备无细胞CMV的方法。     

Gustatory sensitivity of the herbivore Tilapia zillii to amino acids

The gustatory sensitivity of the herbivorous fish Tilapia zillii was investigated using electrophysiological techniques. Integrated responses from facial taste nerves were recorded during stimulation by l l amino acids. All compounds proved to be effective stimuli. The relative stimulatory efficacy (RSE) determined at 1 × 10 ⁻³ m indicated that stimuli can be organized into three groups on the basis of similarity of efficacy. Effects of pH which altered the RSE of some amino acids are documented. Amino acid RSE differed to some extent from those of previously studied carnivorous fish. There was concordance between the composition of preferred food, effective feeding stimuli and the peripheral receptor responses. These observations support the hypothesis that peripheral chemosensitivity might serve as a mechanism of feeding specialization in some fish.     

An idiotype shared by monoclonal antibodies to different peptides of human myelin basic protein.

A mAb of the IgG1/kappa isotype was raised against human myelin basic protein (MBP) peptide acetyl 1-9. This mAb, termed F23, reacted with human MBP and human MBP peptides acetyl 1-9, 1-14, and 1-44, but not with MBP peptides 10-19, 80-89, or 45-89. According to the guidelines of the molecular recognition theory, a complementary peptide to human MBP peptide 1-9 was synthesized and used to raise murine mAb with anti-Id activity. Two mAb anti-Id, F25F7 and F25C8, both of the IgM/kappa isotype, were selected for further study. These anti-Id reacted with F23, the mAb for which they were selected, and also reacted with another mAb, which was of the IgG1/kappa isotype and was raised to human MBP peptide 80-89. There was no reaction with another control mAb of the IgG1/kappa isotype or murine myeloma IgG1. By immunoblotting techniques, it was demonstrated that the Id on each of the mAbs to MBP peptides was located on the kappa L chain but also could be recognized in nonreduced IgG. The cross-reactive anti-Id suppressed antibody secretion of Id-producing hybridoma cells in an Id-specific manner, and kinetic studies suggest an intracellular mechanism for the suppression. These cross-reactive Id among antibodies to different MBP peptides imply that the same V region genes of kappa L chains are involved in the selection of antibodies to an autoantigen, like MBP, and may play a role in the modulation of immune responses against MBP in certain inflammatory demyelinating diseases.
