鸭蛋黄颜色的生态遗传分析

1 引言 蛋黄颜色作为衡量禽蛋质量的主要经济性状之一,愈来愈受到消费者的关注,家鸡中这种性状的遗传力很低。Farnsworth等(1955)发现其遗传力为0.15,Torges报道其仅为0.05,Vanchev等(1980)估测母系遗传力为0.18,父系为0.47。因此,决定蛋黄色度主要是饲料因素,饲料中的氧化类胡萝卜素(叶黄素和玉米黄质)为蛋黄提供色素来源,能大量提供有效类胡萝卜素的饲料有藻类、紫花苜蓿、黄(白)玉米、大豆等植物,甲壳类动物、微生物(醇母)及类胡萝卜素制剂Mackey分别用墨角藻(Fucus vesiculosus)、齿缘墨角藻     

浙江古田山亚热带常绿阔叶林叶衰老物候影响因子研究

该文选取浙江省古田山亚热带常绿阔叶林72种木本植物,探究气候因素、系统发育关系和功能性状对亚热带常绿阔叶林叶衰老物候的影响。结果表明,叶变色期在9—12月,落叶期在10—12月。每月落叶物种数与月均温、月均降水量和月均日照时数没有显著相关性,每月叶变色物种数与月均温和月均日照时数呈弱相关;落叶性对叶变色期和落叶期具有显著影响;植物间系统发育关系对叶变色期和落叶期没有显著影响。因此,生物和非生物因子都会影响常绿阔叶树种的叶衰老,这对于提高秋季物候预测模型具有重要价值。     

Sesquiterpenoids from the Resina Commiphora Promoting the Apoptotic Activity of PC-3 Prostate Cancer Cells

Four new germacrane-type sesquiterpenes commiphoranes M1-M4 ( 1 - 4 ) together with eighteen sesquiterpenes were isolated from the Resina Commiphora. The structures and relative configurations of new substances were determined by using spectroscopic methods. Biological activity investigation revealed that nine compounds including 7 , 9 , 14 , 16 , (+)- 17 , (−)- 17 , 18 , 19 , and 20 could induce the apoptosis of prostate cancer originated PC-3 cells, through classic apoptosis signaling pathway, even using flow cytometry showed that the compound (+)- 17 caused apoptosis of PC-3 cells more than 40 %, suggesting their potential therapeutic application in the development of novel drugs against prostate cancer.     

I型马立克氏病毒38kD磷蛋白与Ⅱ和Ⅲ型病毒间的交叉免疫反应

由致病性Ⅰ型马立克氏病病毒(MDV)特异性的单克隆抗体H_(19)制备亲和层析柱,从感染重组杆状病毒BP38Ⅱ的昆虫细胞系Sf9细胞中提纯MDV的pp38基因表达产物,以此免疫小鼠制备抗血清,测定其与不同型MDV毒株感染的鸡胚成纤维细胞免疫反应性,同时也用不同型MDV毒株(HVT,Z4)制备的抗血清和自然感染发病鸡血清分别与感染重组病毒的Sf9细胞进行免疫交叉反应.试验结果表明,完整的Ⅰ型MDV来源的pp38基因产物与所试Ⅱ型Z4株和Ⅲ型HVT Fc126毒株在抗原性上有显著交叉反应.这一结果表明,在Ⅱ型和Ⅲ型MDV毒株中可能存在着pp38的类似物.     

The Role of the Cytoskeleton and Dictyosome Activity in the Pulsatory Growth of Nicotiana tabacum and Petunia hybrida Pollen Tubes

Pollen tubes of Nicotiana tabacum and Petunia hybrida show pulsatory growth. Phases of slow growth lasting minutes are interrupted by pulse-like elongations lasting 10–20 seconds involving an increase of growth rate by up to 24-fold. Inhibition of dictyosome activity with brefeldin A or monensin did not result in an inhibition of pulsatory growth but eventually stopped pollen tube elongation. In contrast to this the inhibition of the cytoskeletal elements with cytochalasin D and colchicine caused the pollen tubes to abandon the pulse-like elongations. It was concluded that the activity of the dictyosomes does not have a controlling function in the mechanism of pulsatory growth, even though it is necessary for pollen tube elongation, since cell wall material is provided by secretory vesicles deriving from the Golgi apparatus. In contrast the cytoskeletal elements, actin and microtubules, seem to play an important regulatory role in the pulse-like elongations. In addition, it was observed that during the experiments several pollen tubes burst upon the completion of a pulse-like expansion, indicating on the one hand that the internal turgor is the driving force of the pulse-like expansions. On the other hand, the bursting shows that the pollen tube cell wall is rather weak at the end of a pulse, indicating that at this point of time it is either thinner or less stable than during the slow growth phase or at the beginning of a pulse.     

天然抗氧化剂丹参酮Ⅱ—A对肝细胞脂质过氧化产物与DNA相互作用的影响

［３Ｈ］花生四烯酸标记的肝细胞,经ＦｅＣｌ２－ＤＴＰＡ启动脂质过氧化后,细胞ＤＮＡ出现放射性,并随保温时间增加而逐渐增高,表明在细胞内脂质过氧化产物与ＤＮＡ发生相互作用,生成了一种ＤＮＡ加成物,经测定它具有特征荧光光谱,显示较低的增色效应和Ｔｍ值。用高度敏度荧光图象显微镜直接观察发现丹参酮Ⅱ－Ａ经细胞摄取后主要滞留在细胞膜与胞浆中。它能有效地抑制细胞脂质过氧化,减少脂质－ＤＮＡ加成物的产生,并阻止了细胞存活率和Ｏ６甲基鸟嘌呤转移酶活性的降低,其抑制率与ＶｉｔＥ,ＢＨＴ相近,但显著高于ＮａＮ３,甘露醇和ＳＯＤ。上述结果提示丹参酮Ⅱ－Ａ是一种新的有效的细胞内脂质过氧化产物与ＤＮＡ相互作用的抑制剂。它对ＤＮＡ的保护作用可能是通过清除脂类自由基而阻断脂质过氧化的链式反应,抑制ＤＮＡ加成物的生成,从而减少了细胞毒性。
