津白_3侏儒小鼠垂体前叶生长激素细胞的免疫细胞化学研究

津白_３侏儒小鼠（ｄＷ~ｔ）是１９８２年从津白_３纯系小鼠（ＴＡ_３）中发现,进而培育成侏的变种。本实验应用免疫细胞化学技术,对ｄｗ￣ｔ小鼠垂体前叶生长激素（ＧＨ）细胞进行观察,并根据体视学原理进行定量分析,以探讨ｄｗ~ｔ小鼠是否存在垂体发育缺陷。实验结果显示,ｄｗ~ｔ小鼠ＧＨ细胞的体积密度（Ｖｖ）和数密度（Ｎｖ）值均低于正常对照组,Ｐ＜０．０１～０．００１。表明ｄｗ~ｔ小鼠由于垂体前叶ＧＨ细胞数量减少,导致ＧＨ分泌不足,从而形成侏儒。     

CBP-18, a Ca2+-Binding Protein in Rat Brain: Tissue Distribution and Localization

Abstract: The distribution of a novel calcium-binding protein with a molecular mass of 18 kDa (CBP-18) in the rat brain was studied by means of biochemical methods and immunohistochemistry on cryostat-sectioned tissue and compared with staining patterns of parvalbumin on adjacent sections. The biochemical analysis revealed high levels of CPB-18 in cortex and cerebellum, low levels in the lungs, and undetectable levels in all other tissues tested. Immunohistochemically, the polyclonal rabbit-derived antibody for CPB-18 showed selective affinity with periglomerular cells and dendrites in the olfactory bulb. Distinct immunostaining of scattered cells and their proximal dendrites was found in the anterior olfactory nuclei and in the perirhinal and entorhinal cortex. Strong staining of neuropil with recognizable but diffusely outlined cells was observed in the retrosplenial cortex, central amygdala, hippocampal rudiment, septum, area preoptica, hypothalamus, colliculus superior, and parabrachial nuclei. The cerebellum showed strong neuropil staining of both the molecular and the granule cell layer. Less intense neuropil staining and a few scattered cells were found in the neocortex, the remaining basal forebrain, and in the entire brainstem. Immunoreactivity was barely detectable or missing in the striatum, the hippocampus, the thalamus, and in the colliculus inferior. Thus, CPB-18 shows a unique staining pattern in the CNS, different from all other Ca²⁺-binding proteins studied so far.     

STRUCTURE AND DYNAMICS OF BAMBOOS IN THE WOLONG NATURAL RESERVE,CHINA

Culm (ramet) demography of two bamboos, Fargesia robusta and Bashania fangiana, was studied over 7 yr in southwest China to determine if: 1) ramet numbers remain relatively constant; 2) ramet mortality was constant; 3) density response was greater in spreading vs. compact clones; 4) extrinsic factors (e.g., predation, climate) influenced ramet dynamics; and 5) ramets that die are smaller than ones that live. Culm numbers remained relatively constant (±20%) in most plots, but culm numbers increased (>;20%) on some sites. Mortality of culms >;6 mo old over 7 yr was low and constant, but mortality of younger culms (≤6 mo) was high and variable due to predation. Spreading clones had greater recruitment response to density than compact clones, but predation and climate may have diminished or amplified the observed demographic patterns. Predators and perhaps climate influenced culm demography, and culms that died were smaller than remaining live culms. The demography of the two bamboos we studied is compared to other clonal plants, including bamboos, to identify common processes controlling ramet demography.

Microbial nitrogen and phosphorus co-limitation across permafrost region

The status of plant and microbial nutrient limitation have profound impacts on ecosystem carbon cycle in permafrost areas, which store large amounts of carbon and experience pronounced climatic warming. Despite the long-term standing paradigm assumes that cold ecosystems primarily have nitrogen deficiency, large-scale empirical tests of microbial nutrient limitation are lacking. Here we assessed the potential microbial nutrient limitation across the Tibetan alpine permafrost region, using the combination of enzymatic and elemental stoichiometry, genes abundance and fertilization method. In contrast with the traditional view, the four independent approaches congruently detected widespread microbial nitrogen and phosphorus co-limitation in both the surface soil and deep permafrost deposits, with stronger limitation in the topsoil. Further analysis revealed that soil resources stoichiometry and microbial community composition were the two best predictors of the magnitude of microbial nutrient limitation. High ratio of available soil carbon to nutrient and low fungal/bacterial ratio corresponded to strong microbial nutrient limitation. These findings suggest that warming-induced enhancement in soil nutrient availability could stimulate microbial activity, and probably amplify soil carbon losses from permafrost areas.     

Is drift ‘directional’? Unequal breeding sex ratio revisited

Unequal breeding sex ratio can significantly reduce effective population size, allowing a rare neutral allele to jump to a high frequency through genetic drift. However, this one-way alteration to allele frequency appears inconsistent with the concept that drift is non-directional. Based on binomial sampling distribution, this study developed a method to directly and exhaustively measure drift by calculating the mean deviation of change in allele frequency, then applied it to cases of unequal breeding sex ratio. The result shows that, under those cases, (1) the mean deviation can always be divided into two halves that are equal in size but opposite in direction; (2) each half consists of one or several categories represented by various allele proportions in the rare sex; (3) this proportion is another factor that determines the outcome of drift, in addition to effective population size and allele frequency; (4) drift is non-directional on a global scale, but whether an allele will drift up or down can be predicted based on the above factors. This method enables us to dissect every component of the expected change in allele frequency caused by drift and to find out the combined effect of population size, allele frequency and allele proportion in the rarer sex under neutrality but unequal breeding sex ratio.

论二次抽样以矫正多样性统计偏差的经典、发展与应用

稀疏标准化是定量古生物工作中矫正多样性统计偏差的常用方法。相比基于样本大小的传统稀疏化,基于采样充分度的改进能更忠实反映多样性信息。然而一些案例对于稀疏化的适用性不够重视,尤其是改进的方法鲜有国内文献介绍。本文阐述了稀疏化的原理,强调了应用的注意事项和改进方法的优势。稀疏化的原理是从大小不同的样本中二次抽样出彼此“公平”的子样本,以比较其分类单元丰富度。传统方法据样本大小衡量公平,改进的方法据采样充分度评估公平,要求子样本在群落中代表的个体频率总和相等。两种思路均可通过计算机模拟多次重复二次抽样或公式推导来计算,已有PAST和iNext等软件可以实现。采样是否充分代表了古生物群落是有效应用该方法的首要前提。
