Transfer of IncP Plasmids to Extremely Acidophilic Thiobacillus thiooxidans

The broad-host-range IncP plasmids RP4, R68.45, RP1::Tn501, and and pUB307 were transferred directly to extremely acidophilic Thiobacillus thiooxidans from Escherichia coli by conjugation at frequencies of 10^-5 to 10^-7 per recipient. The ability of T. thiooxidans to receive and express the antibiotic resistance markers was examined. The plasmid RP4 was transferred back to E. coli from T. thiooxidans at a frequency of 1.0 × 10^-3 per recipient.     

植物群落演替与土壤发展之间的关系

本文运用植物群落中植物优势种的重要值与相对应子群落的土壤特征值直接相关联的分析方法,对湖北宜昌大老岭的桦(Betula)、栎(Quercus)、栗(Castanea)七个群落类型的三个演替途径的土壤动态进行分析,结果表明:在植物群落的演替过程中,土壤中的Ca、pH值减少;离子代换量增加;Na、Mg、NH_4+-N、速效P、速效K、有机质的含量是随着物种的变化而呈不同的趋势。因此,植物群落的演替是生态系统的动态过程。     

控制常绿针叶树叶量对树干生长的促进作用

一、前言近几年,在研究不同树种的修枝过程中,偶然发现,一些常绿针叶树的人工去叶能加快树干材积的生长,这引起了人们新的研究兴趣:控制常绿针叶树的叶量是否能促进树木生长?这一措施有多少可能的前途或弊端?多年来,人类为寻求促进林木生长的有效经营措施,利用各种手段进行了大量实验研究工作,获得了很有意义的成果,抚育间伐是其中的一项重要途径。由于世界各国的日益重视,60年代以来,很多学     

建平县农业生态系统结构总体设计的研究

农业生态系统结构的总体设计是农业生产发展的客观要求,同时,也是保证农村经济不断增长和农村生态系统良性循环的一个非常重要问题。农业生态系统边界范围较大,具有多层次、多因素、多目标、多途径等复杂性,要想深刻剖析农业生态系统结构和功能的关系,必须用系统工程的观点和方法对农业生态系统的结构进行控制和管理。本文通过对建平县农业     

毛喉鞘蕊花的化学成分研究

本文报导了,从产于滇东北的毛喉鞘蕊花(Coleus forskohlii Brig)的根茎中分离到四个二萜化合物,经光谱分析鉴定,其结构分别为1α,6β,7α-triacetyl-coleonol—B(1),I-acetyl—forskolin(2),coleonol-B(3),和deacetyl-forskolin(4)。化合物(1)和(2)是首次从该植物中分离到。     

应用纯化的重组Epstein-Barr病毒早期抗原建立检测鼻咽癌病人血清IgA/EA抗体的ELISA方法

利用凝胶和离子交换柱(Mono Q)两次层析,将大肠杆菌表达的EB病毒早期抗原P138片段多肽纯化。以此P138为抗原,增加鼠抗人IgA单克隆抗体以扩大IgA的反应,建立了三步ELISA法。用本法检查了100例鼻咽癌病人和63例正常人血清中抗EB病毒IgA/EA抗体,病人血清的阳性检出率为86％,正常人有3例阳性(4.7％)。此结果表明,三步ELISA法较常用的间接ELISA法(阳性检出率为71％)敏感。     

Stabilization of a HemA-LacZ hybrid protein against proteolysis during carbon starvation in atp mutants of Salmonella typhimurium.

Transposon insertions that stabilize the beta-galactosidase activity of a HemA-LacZ hybrid protein following carbon starvation were mapped to the atp operon of Salmonella typhimurium. This effect is similar to that seen with nuo mutants defective in the energy-conserving type I NADH dehydrogenase. Insertions in several other genes, including such highly pleiotropic mutants as rpoS, polA, and hfq, were isolated with the same phenotypic screen, but they do not affect the beta-galactosidase activity of HemA-LacZ. All of these mutants act indirectly to alter the colony color of many different fusion strains on indicator plates.     

A Bacillus subtilis malate dehydrogenase gene.

A Bacillus subtilis gene for malate dehydrogenase (citH) was found downstream of genes for citrate synthase and isocitrate dehydrogenase. Disruption of citH caused partial auxotrophy for aspartate and a requirement for aspartate during sporulation. In the absence of aspartate, citH mutant cells were blocked at a late stage of spore formation.
