广西北部湾海岸带、海岛的外来入侵植物

为保护广西北部湾海岸带、海岛的植物多样性和生态系统多样性,通过样方、样带法野外实地调查并结合文献资料,对其外来入侵植物的物种组成、原产地、生活型、入侵途径和危害状况等进行了分析。结果表明,广西北部湾海岸带、海岛共有入侵植物64种,隶属28科55属,其中菊科(Asteraceae)最多(15种)。草本植物最多,有48种(75.00%)。原产地来自美洲的植物最多,有49种。入侵风险等级可划分为5个等级,其中Ⅰ级严重危害的有8种(12.50%)。与广西、广东、海南及华南地区的外来入侵植物在物种组成、生活型和原产地等方面呈现出较强的相似性;北部湾与广西中越边境内陆地区来自美洲的入侵植物都超过60%。因此推测广西外来入侵植物有两条可能的入侵线路：一是从海南登录,二是从中越边境跨入。广西北部湾海岸带、海岛的外来入侵植物总数(相对整个广西)虽较少,但其8种Ⅰ级严重危害植物的防治,仍需引起重视。     

大肠杆菌rpoH基因的克隆,表达及其产物的纯化

Signal Sequence and Promoter Effects on the Efficacy of Toxin-Expressing Baculoviruses as Biopesticides

Baculovirus recombinants expressing a neurotoxin gene,tox34,from the straw itch mitePyemotes triticihave been previously shown to paralyze or kill insects approximately 50% faster than wild-type. We constructed a series of recombinants of the baculovirusAutographa californicanucleopolyhedrovirus which expressedtox34with different signal sequences or were controlled by different promoters to evaluate their influence on toxin expression in cell culture and in insects. Heterologous signal sequences provided no significant increase in the overall levels of the maturetox34gene product, Tox34, secreted into the tissue culture media from infected cells and no improvement in the time required for paralysis of insect hosts. The time required for paralysis was promoter-dependent; the late 6.9K DNA binding protein gene promoter was generally the most effective promoter, although an insect HSP70 promoter was equally or more effective in one of the species.     

龙血树真菌群及其对血竭形成的影响

从柬埔寨龙血树（Ｄｒａｃａｅｎａｃｏｃｈｉｎｃｈｉｎｅｎｓｉｓ）茎杆中分离到３０３株真菌,其中镰刀菌属（Ｆｕｓａｒｉｕｍ）菌株占总分离频率的５２％,其次是短梗霉（Ａｕｒｅｏｂａｓｉｄｉｕｍ）和枝孢霉（Ｃｌａｄｏｓｐｏｒｉｕｍ）。通过活体接种对血竭产生的影响试验表明,对血竭形成起重要作用的真菌主要是禾谷镰刀菌龙血树变种（Ｆ．ｇｒａｍｉｎｕｍｖａｒ．ｄｒａｃａｅｎａ）等４株红色镰刀菌,可使血竭形成量提高６６％－１２０％。     

甜玉米籽实含糖量的配合力分析

采用不完全双列杂交设计研究了 6个母本3个父本甜玉米自交系籽实含糖量的配合力效应。结果表明,父母本一般配合力和特殊配合力效应均方都显著。根据各亲本的表现把亲本5033归为一般配合力高而特殊配合力方差大的最理想类型;亲本5012和5011属一般配合力高而特殊配合力方差小的类型;亲本5018、5034、5028和5024为一般配合力低,但特殊配合力方差高的类型; 亲本5023和5009属一般配合力效应和特殊配合力方差都低的类型,最缺少实用价值。     

Extracellular polysaccharide of Nostoc commune (Cyanobacteria) inhibits fusion of membrane vesicles during desiccation

Cells of the cyanobacterium Nostoc commune secrete a complex, high molecular weight, extracellular polysaccharide (EPS) which accumulates to more than 60% of the dry weight of colonies. The EPS was purified from the clonal isolate N. commune DRH1. The midpoint of the membrane phase transition (T_m) of desiccated cells of N. commune CHEN was low (T_{m dry} = 8 °C) and was comparable to the T_m of rehydrated cells((T_m)_H20 = 6 °C). The EPS was not responsible for the depression of T_m. However, the EPS, at low concentrations, inhibited specifically the fusion of phosphatidylcholine membrane vesicles when they were dried in vitro at0% relative humidity (−400 MPa). Low concentrations of a trehalose:sucrose mixture, in a molar ratio which corresponded with that present in cells in vivo, together with small amounts of the EPS, were efficient in preventing leakage of carboxyfloroscein (CF) from membrane vesicles. Freeze-fracture electron microscopy resolved complex changes in the structure of the EPS and the outer membrane in response to rehydration of desiccated cells. The capacity of the EPS to prevent membrane fusion, the maintenance of a low T_{m dry} in desiccated cells, and the changes in rheological properties of the EPS in response to water availability, constitute what are likely important mechanisms for desiccation tolerance in this cyanobacterium. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.

氯喹导致大鼠肌组织载脂蛋白E大量表达

载脂蛋白E(ApoE)与迟发的家族性及孤发性阿尔茨海默(Alzheimer)病密切相关. 氯喹慢性中毒可诱发某些肌病理改变, 出现β淀粉样蛋白(βAP)与tau蛋白等的沉积, 与Alzheimer脑中见到的病理改变类似. 为分析这一改变的机制, 用逆转录结合多聚酶链反应技术(RT-PCR)对氯喹处理的大鼠肌肉中ApoE表达的改变进行了研究. 在PCR定量中采用了一种稳定表达的内源性甘油醛-3-磷酸脱氢酶mRNA作为内部参照. PCR扩增在很宽的循环数范围内成线性, 且靶mRNA与参照mRNA的扩增效率相当. 氯喹处理后大鼠肌肉中ApoE mRNA的表达从第6周开始增加, 第8周后超过对照组的20多倍. 结果提示, ApoE在氯喹慢性中毒所致的大鼠肌病理改变中发挥某些作用.
