新疆呼图壁盐化草甸群落的DCA, CCA及DCCA分析

 本文应用DCA、CCA及DCCA排序技术对新疆呼图壁盐化草甸群落进行了分析。分析中选取了地下水位、粘土层出现深度、粘土层厚度、地下水pH值及地下水矿化度5个环境因子;同时为了分析空间格局对植被分异影响的大小,建立了样地空间坐标矩阵。结果表明：地下水位和地下水的pH值是引起植被分异的两个主要因素,空间格局对植被分异的影响大于环境因子对植被分异的影响。     

Deletion between direct repeats in T7 DNA stimulated by double-strand breaks.

An in vitro system based on extracts of Escherichia coli infected with bacteriophage T7 was used to study genetic deletions between directly repeated sequences. The frequency of deletion was highest under conditions in which the DNA was actively replicating. Deletion frequency increased markedly with the length of the direct repeat both in vitro and in vivo. When a T7 gene was interrupted by 93 bp of nonsense sequence flanked by 20-bp direct repeats, the region between the repeats was deleted in about 1 out of every 1,600 genomes during each round of replication. Very similar values were found for deletion frequency in vivo and in vitro. The deletion frequency was essentially unaffected by a recA mutation in the host. When a double-strand break was placed between the repeats, repair of this strand break was often accompanied by the deletion of the DNA between the direct repeats, suggesting that break rejoining could contribute to deletion during in vitro DNA replication.

Effects of aluminium on growth and cation uptake in seedlings of Eucalyptus mannifera and Pinus radiata

This experiment was designed to examine the effects of aluminium (Al) on the growth of Pinus radiata (D. Don) and Eucalyptus mannifera subsp. mannifera (Mudie) seedlings in culture solutions in a glasshouse to help explain the failure of radiata pine trees on some acid, low fertility soils in Australia on which the native eucalypts flourish. Aluminium (Al) in culture solution increased the growth of roots and shoots of seedlings of both species but while growth of the eucalypt continued to increase with increases in Al to 2.222 μM, growth of the pine was largest at 370 μM Al. In addition to total root length, specific root length (length per unit dry weight), a measure of fineness of the root, increased in the eucalypt seedlings as the substrate Al increased. Growth of the shoots and roots of the pine in the absence of any added Al was extremely poor suggesting that Al, in low concentrations, may be an essential element or ameliorate some other factors in solution culture at low pH. Root and shoot concentrations of K increased with increasing Al, whilst Ca and Mg Concentrations decreased and Mn concentrations were unaffected in both species. Tissue Ca and Mg concentrations were 2 to 3 times higher in the eucalypt seedlings than the pine at all levels of added Al due to greater uptake of these elements by the eucalypt. In contrast, at the highest concentration of Al in the medium, shoot Al concentrations were lower in the cucalypt than in the pine due to a greater proportion of Al being retained in the eucalypt roots. These differences between the seedlings in terms of root growth and tissue cation concentrations may help explain the ability of eucalypt species to maintain vigorous growth on acid soils high in Al and low in Ca and P, where growth of the pines failed.     

Chaetomella acutiseta produces chaetomellic acids A and B which are reversible inhibitors of farnesyl-protien transferase

Chaetomellic acids A and B, isolated from Chaetomella acutiseta, are specific inhibitors of farnesyl-protein transferase that do not inhibit geranylgeranyl transferase type 1 or squalene synthase. Chaetomellic acids A and B are reversible inhibitors, resemble farnesyl diphosphate and probably inhibit FPTase by substituting for farnesyl diphosphate. Chaetomellic acid production appears to be widespread within the genus Chaetomella. Correspondence to: R. B. Lingham     

急性脑出血综合治疗的几个问题探讨：附死亡80例分析

通过对８０例急性脑出血死亡组分析,发现死于脑疝的占６２．５％,脑疝与一种或二种以上合并症同存者占７７．５％,显著高于存活组（Ｐ＜０．０１）．它们互为因果,加速死亡。因此,应重视早期或超早期采用简易定向锥颅脑内血肿碎吸术吸除血肿,同时注意维持生命体征稳定,加强脱水降颅压,预防、控制合并症等综合治疗。且要全面分析,相互兼顾,正确处置。这是帮助机体渡过调控障碍难关,挽救生命的有效治疗措施。

Diverse flowering responses subjecting to ambient high temperature in soybean under short-day conditions

Flowering time is one of important agronomic traits determining the crop yield and affected by high temperature. When facing high ambient temperature, plants often initiate early flowering as an adaptive strategy to escape the stress and ensure successful reproduction. However, here we find opposing ways in the short-day crop soybean to respond to different levels of high temperatures, in which flowering accelerates when temperature changes from 25 to 30 °C, but delays when temperature reaches 35 °C under short day. phyA-E1, possibly photoperiodic pathway, is crucial for 35 °C-mediated late flowering, however, does not contribute to promoting flowering at 30 °C. 30 °C-induced up-regulation of FT2a and FT5a leads to early flowering, independent of E1. Therefore, distinct responsive mechanisms are adopted by soybean when facing different levels of high temperatures for successful flowering and reproduction.
