通过对亚热带3个地区地带性阔叶林和杉木林土壤活性有机质的比较,分析森林类型变化及杉木连栽对土壤有机碳和养分含量的影响.结果表明：地带性阔叶林转变为杉木林后,土壤总有机碳含量下降27.8%～52.1%、腐殖酸碳下降32.2%～52.8%、胡敏酸下降36.4%～59.0%、富里酸下降29.7%～50.0%;杉木连栽也使土壤总有机碳和腐殖质含量下降.森林类型改变和杉木连栽对土壤活性有机质的影响更明显.杉木林取代阔叶林后,土壤微生物生物量碳、微生物生物量氮、可溶性有机碳和可溶性有机氮含量的最大降幅分别为61.8%、38.2%、43.3%和69.0%;与第1代杉木林相比,第2代杉木林土壤微生物生物量碳、微生物生物量氮、可溶性有机碳和可溶性有机氮含量的最大降幅分别为34.7%、29.3%、30.4%、18.4%.经相关性分析,除冷水浸提有机氮外,土壤活性有机质与养分含量之间具有密切的相关关系.

Litterfall Production Along Successional and Altitudinal Gradients of Subtropical Monsoon Evergreen Broadleaved Forests in Guangdong, China

Evaluation of litterfall production is important for understanding nutrient cycling, forest growth, successional pathways, and interactions with environmental variables in forest ecosystems. Litterfall was intensively studied during the period of 1982–2001 in two subtropical monsoon vegetation gradients in the Dinghushan Biosphere Reserve, Guangdong Province, China. The two gradients include: (1) a successional gradient composed of pine forest (PF), mixed pine and broadleaved forest (MF) and monsoon evergreen broadleaved forest (BF), and (2) an altitudinal gradient composed of Baiyunci ravine rain forest (BRF), Qingyunci ravine rain forest (QRF), BF and mountainous evergreen broadleaved forest (MMF). Mean annual litterfall production was 356, 861 and 849 g m⁻² for PF, MF and BF of the successional gradient, and 1016, 1061, 849 and 489 g m⁻² for BRF, QRF, BF and MMF of the altitudinal gradient, respectively. As expected, mean annual litterfall of the pioneer forest PF was the lowest, but rapidly increased over the observation period while those in other forests were relatively stable, confirming that forest litterfall production is closely related to successional stages and growth patterns. Leaf proportions of total litterfall in PF, MF, BF, BRF, QRF and MMF were 76.4%, 68.4%, 56.8%, 55.7%, 57.6% and 69.2%, respectively, which were consistent with the results from studies in other evergreen broadleaved forests. Our analysis on litterfall monthly distributions indicated that litterfall production was much higher during the period of April to September compared to other months for all studied forest types. Although there were significant impacts of some climate variables (maximum and effective temperatures) on litterfall production in some of the studied forests, the mechanisms of how climate factors (temperature and rainfall) interactively affect litterfall await further study.     

Development of a 16S rRNA gene-based prototype microarray for the detection of selected actinomycetes genera

Actinomycetes are known for their secondary metabolites, which have been successfully used as drugs in human and veterinary medicines. However, information on the distribution of this group of Gram-positive bacteria in diverse ecosystems and a comprehension of their activities in ecosystem processes are still scarce. We have developed a 16S rRNA-based taxonomic microarray that targets key actinomycetes at the genus level. In total, 113 actinomycete 16S rRNA probes, corresponding to 55 of the 202 described genera, were designed. The microarray accuracy was evaluated by comparing signal intensities with probe/target-weighted mismatch values and the Gibbs energy of the probe/target duplex formation by hybridizing 17 non-actinomycete and 29 actinomycete strains/clones with the probe set. The validation proved that the probe set was specific, with only 1.3% of false results. The incomplete coverage of actinomycetes by a genus-specific probe was caused by the limited number of 16S rRNA gene sequences in databases or insufficient 16S rRNA gene polymorphism. The microarray enabled discrimination between actinomycete communities from three forest soil samples collected at one site. Cloning and sequencing of 16S rRNA genes from one of the soil samples confirmed the microarray results. We propose that this newly constructed microarray will be a valuable tool for genus-level comparisons of actinomycete communities in various ecological conditions.

一氧化碳减轻脂多糖诱导的大鼠小肠损伤与p38 MAPK磷酸化水平的关系

目的：观察低浓度一氧化碳（CO）吸入和腹腔给予对脂多糖（LPS）诱导大鼠小肠损伤的作用及作用过程中丝裂原活化蛋白激酶p38（p38 MAPK）磷酸化水平的变化。方法：6组SD大鼠静脉注入5mg／kg体质量IPS或等容量生理盐水;1h后,对照及LPS注入组吸入室内空气,CO吸入及LPS注入＋CO吸入组吸入体积分数为2．5×10^-4CO．CO腹腔及LPS注入＋CO腹腔组腹腔通入体积分数为2．5×10^-4CO。观察1、3、6h后放血处死,取回盲部上小肠,酶联免疫吸附法测定血小板活化因子（PAV）及细胞间黏附分子-1（ICAM-1）水平;光镜观察组织形态学变化;蛋白印迹法测定p38 MAPK磷酸化水平。结果：LPS注入组PAF、ICAM-1及p38 MAPK磷酸化水平显著高于相应时间点的对照、CO吸入及CO腹腔组（P均〈0．01）;组内各时间点比较,差异无统计学意义。与相应时间点的LPS注入组比较,LPS注入＋CO吸入及LPS注入＋CP腹腔组的PAF和ICAM-1明显降低（P均〈0．05）,但p38 MAPK磷酸化水平进一步增高（P均〈0．05）;此两组间及两组内各时间点比较,差异无统计学意义。结论：低浓度CO吸入和腹腔给予以非时间依赖方式下调LPS诱导的大鼠小肠PAF、ICAM-1表达而起相似的保护作用;p38 MAPK信号转导通路可能参与了这一过程。     

Using pseudo-amino acid composition and support vector machine to predict protein structural class

As a result of genome and other sequencing projects, the gap between the number of known protein sequences and the number of known protein structural classes is widening rapidly. In order to narrow this gap, it is vitally important to develop a computational prediction method for fast and accurately determining the protein structural class. In this paper, a novel predictor is developed for predicting protein structural class. It is featured by employing a support vector machine learning system and using a different pseudo-amino acid composition (PseAA), which was introduced to, to some extent, take into account the sequence-order effects to represent protein samples. As a demonstration, the jackknife cross-validation test was performed on a working dataset that contains 204 non-homologous proteins. The predicted results are very encouraging, indicating that the current predictor featured with the PseAA may play an important complementary role to the elegant covariant discriminant predictor and other existing algorithms.     

蝙蝠携带病毒的研究进展

蝙蝠物种丰富,分布广泛,有很强的飞行能力,其中一些蝙蝠种类还有迁飞的习性,与人类接触密切.迄今为止,已在蝙蝠体内分离到80多种病毒,其中一些是多种重大人兽共患疾病的传染源,给人类公共健康和蝙蝠生物保护带来威胁.近年来,一些新病毒病的暴发,老病毒病的重返都与蝙蝠有关,如1994年澳大利亚爆发的亨德拉病毒(Hendra virus)[1,2],1997年澳大利亚爆发的梅南高病毒(Menangle virus)[3],1998年马来西亚爆发的尼巴病毒(Nipah virus)[4],以及Tioman病毒(Tioman virus)[5]等;而人类在防止蝙蝠传播病毒的同时,很可能由于采取的方法不当而对蝙蝠物种的保护构成潜在的威胁.
