尖三刺角蝉的核型与性二型现象：同翅目：角蝉科

尖三刺角蝉Ｔｈｉｃｅｎｔｒｕｓａｃｕｔｉｃｏｒｎｉｓ的雌雄均只有１０条染色体,性别决定为ＸＹ型,是角蝉科已知最为独特的核型特征,该种具有明显的性二型现象,由于雄性不具有上肩角,极易被误认为是秃角蝉属ＣｅｎｔｒｏｔｏｓｃｅｌｌｕｓＦｕｎｋｈｏｕｓｅｒ的种类。本文根据染色体特征,首次确定了该种的雄性,并对其形态特征进行了描述。     

苏芸金杆菌发酵生产工艺改进研究：Ⅰ芽孢接种和营养体接种比较

苏芸金杆菌液体深层发酵中用营养体接种二级发酵工艺和用二级发酵初期培养物作种子进行三级发酵工艺是可行的。试验结果表明：二级发酵种子罐营养体最佳移种茵龄为９ｈ左右,此时营养体数量多、整齐、染色均匀,显微镜下菌体有折光点存在,三级接种营养体菌龄约为４ｈ左右,菌体数量多,同步率高,少量染色不均匀。发酵液含菌数和发酵产品毒力均达到芽抱接种相同水平,但生产周期明显缩短４－５ｈ,因此相应提高发酵罐生产能力２０％。     

心脏肾素－血管紧张素系统在游泳引起的生理性心肌肥大中的作用

本实验采用游泳训练（ＳＷ）引起的大鼠心肌肥大模型,通过放射免疫及生化等方法,对生理性心肌肥大时,心脏和循环肾素－血管紧张素系统（ＲＡＳ）的变化进行了初步研究。观察到游泳五周时,大鼠左、右心室重与体重比值（Ｖ／Ｂｗｔ）显著升高,同时,左、右室心肌血管紧张素Ⅱ（ＡｎｇⅡ）含量及心肌Ａｎｇ转换酶（ＡＣＥ）活性也较对照组明显升高（Ｐ＜０．０５）。心肌ＡｎｇⅡ与Ｖ／Ｂｗｔ之间存在明显的正相关关系（ｒ＝０．７７２１,Ｐ＜０．００１）。ＳＷ组血浆ＡｎｇⅠ,Ⅱ及肾素活性（ＲＡ）与对照组相比无明显差异,其血浆ＡｎｇⅡ与Ｖ／Ｂｗｔ之间无明显相关性。上述研究提示：心脏ＲＡＳ在ＳＷ引起的生理性心肌肥大中可能起着重要作用,而且这种作用在很大程度上不依赖于循环ＲＡＳ。

Abnormalities of ADP/ATP carrier protein in J-2-N cardiomyopathic hamsters

ADP/ATP carrier protein (AAC) is located in the mitochondrial inner membrane and has an important function in mitochondrial energy supply. This protein transports ATP to the cytoplasm and counter transports ADP into the mitochondria. J-2-N cardiomyopathic hamsters were investigated to determine the AAC content in cardiac mitochondria. After recording an electrocardiogram and collecting blood, the cardiac mitochondria were isolated. The mitochondrial membranes were labelled with eosin-5-maleimide (EMA) and separated on SDS polyacrylamide gels. The position of the AAC component was identified by exposing the gel under UV light, and the AAC content was determined by densitometry after staining with Coomassie blue. The AAC content ratio was significantly decreased in both 10-week-old and 1-year survived J-2-N hamsters when compared to control Golden hamster. Among 10-week-old J-2-N hamsters, the decrease in the AAC content ratio was more marked for the animals with more severe myocardial damage. The H⁺-ATPase activities of mitochondrial membrane were higher in 10-week-old J-2-N hamsters than in control hamsters. These results suggest that the decrease of AAC in J-2-N hamster plays an important role in the pathogenesis of cardiomyopathy in J-2-N hamsters.

Complete ammonia oxidization in agricultural soils: High ammonia fertilizer loss but low N2O production

The contribution of agriculture to the sustainable development goals requires climate-smart and profitable farm innovations. Increasing the ammonia fertilizer applications to meet the global food demands results in high agricultural costs, environmental quality deterioration, and global warming, without a significant increase in crop yield. Here, we reported that a third microbial ammonia oxidation process, complete ammonia oxidation (comammox), is contributing to a significant ammonia fertilizer loss (41.9 ± 4.8%) at the rate of 3.53 ± 0.55 mg N kg⁻¹ day⁻¹ in agricultural soils around the world. The contribution of comammox to ammonia fertilizer loss, occurring mainly in surface agricultural soil profiles (0–0.2 m), was equivalent to that of bacterial ammonia oxidation (48.6 ± 4.5%); both processes were significantly more important than archaeal ammonia oxidation (9.5 ± 3.6%). In contrast, comammox produced less N₂O (0.98 ± 0.44 μg N kg⁻¹ day⁻¹, 11.7 ± 3.1%), comparable to that produced by archaeal ammonia oxidation (16.4 ± 4.4%) but significantly lower than that of bacterial ammonia oxidation (72.0 ± 5.1%). The efficiency of ammonia conversion to N₂O by comammox (0.02 ± 0.01%) was evidently lower than that of bacterial (0.24 ± 0.06%) and archaeal (0.16 ± 0.04%) ammonia oxidation. The comammox rate increased with increasing soil pH values, which is the only physicochemical characteristic that significantly influenced both comammox bacterial abundance and rates. Ammonia fertilizer loss, dominated by comammox and bacterial ammonia oxidation, was more intense in soils with pH >6.5 than in soils with pH <6.5. Our results revealed that comammox plays a vital role in ammonia fertilizer loss and sustainable development in agroecosystems that have been previously overlooked for a long term.
