Assessing the importance of a self-generated detachment process in river biofilm models

1. Epilithic biofilm biomass was measured for 14 months in two sites, located up‐ and downstream of the city of Toulouse in the Garonne River (south‐west France). Periodical sampling provided a biomass data set to compare with simulations from the model of Uehlinger, Bürher and Reichert (1996: Freshwater Biology, 36 , 249–263.), in order to evaluate the impact of hydraulic disturbance. 2. Despite differences in application conditions (e.g. river size, discharge, frequency of disturbance), the base equation satisfactorily predicted biomass between low and high water periods of the year, suggesting that the flood disturbance regime may be considered a universal mechanism controlling periphyton biomass. 3. However modelling gave no agreement with biomass dynamics during the 7‐month long low water period that the river experienced. The influence of other biomass‐regulating factors (temperature, light and soluble reactive phosphorus) on temporal biomass dynamics was weak. 4. Implementing a supplementary mechanism corresponding to a temperature‐dependent self‐generated loss because of heterotrophic processes allowed us to accurately reproduce the observed pattern: a succession of two peaks. This case study suggests that during typical summer low water periods (flow stability and favourable temperature) river biofilm modelling requires self‐generated detachment to be considered.

中国的角石蛾属昆虫(毛翅目:角石蛾科)

McLachlan(1866)根据采自印度北部阿萨姆Assam的一只雄虫,描述新种灰翅角石蛾Stcnopsyche griseipennis McLachlan并做为模式种,而建立角石蛾属StenopsycheMcLachlan,置于纹石蛾科Hydropsychidae.Ulmer(1907)将前人称之的纹石蛾科分为纹石蛾科(狭义),多距石蛾科Polycentropidae等翅石峨科Philopotomidae和管石蛾科Psychomyiidae。他根据角石蛾属有3个单眼和前足胫节有3个距而置于等翅石蛾科中;但角石蛾属在翅形、脉相、体躯大小和外生殖器等方面与等翅石蛾科的差别极为明显。Banks(1913)认为Ulmer所述的4科,仅能被认为是纹石蛾科中的4个亚科,他将角石     

电针引起脊髓P物质释放的频率依赖性

我室以往的研究表明,不同频率的电针可引起脊髓释放不同种类的阿片肽。本工作观察Ｐ物质（ＳＰ）释放的频率依赖性,电针频率选择２,４,８,１５,３０和１００Ｈｚ,分别收集电针期间及电针前后各３０ｍｉｎ的脊髓灌流液,通过放射免疫方法测定大鼠电针有效组和电针无效组Ｐ物质免疫活性（ＳＰ－ｉｒ）．结果如下：（１）电针有效组：２Ｈｚ引起ＳＰ－ｉｒ降低,与电针前相比,Ｐ＜０．０１;４Ｈｚ电针前后ＳＰ－ｉｒ比较,无统计学意义;８,１５,３０,１００Ｈｚ时ＳＰ－ｉｒ均增加（Ｐ＜０．０１）,其中１５Ｈｚ时ＳＰ增加最多（Ｐ＜０．００１）,表明刺激引起ＳＰ释放有频率依赖性。（２）电针无效组：不论应用何种频率,电针前后脊髓灌流液中ＳＰ－ｉｒ变化不大（均Ｐ＞０．０５）。提示,电针时脊髓液中ＳＰ含量变化与镇痛效果有密切关系。     

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。     

高砷含水层参与腐殖酸-铁矿物转化的关键微生物群落及其对砷迁移转化的影响

【目的】探究不同腐殖酸浓度下参与含砷水铁矿转化的微生物类群组成和丰度变化及对砷释放的影响,预测原位高砷含水层中功能微生物群参与有机质—含砷铁矿物转化过程对砷转化释放的作用。【方法】对河套平原高砷地下水和同深度高砷沉积物中的铁还原功能群落进行富集培养,构建室内厌氧微宇宙体系,将富集菌群分别加入到实验室条件下合成的不同浓度腐殖酸(0、1.5、7、14 mg C/L)-含砷水铁矿体系中,通过体系中砷、铁形态及浓度的变化分析,结合高通量测序技术、X-射线衍射(X-ray diffractometer, XRD),探究不同条件下砷的释放固定和群落的演替。【结果】高砷地下水组(G组)和沉积物组(S组)富集得到的铁还原功能群落具有明显差异,G组中以Aeromonadaceae为特殊优势菌群,而S组中以Shewanellaceae为特殊优势菌群。微宇宙实验结果显示,S组的铁还原量相对较高且速率较快;G组与S组中液相砷形态存在明显差异,整个培养期内G组均以As(Ⅴ)为主,而S组中前期以As(Ⅴ)为主,当反应到达20 d时液相As(Ⅲ)高达3.4μmol/L,推测此时具有砷还原功能的群落占优势地位。当反应...

在主动脉与肾动脉缩窄造成的慢性心功能不全大鼠,血浆儿茶酚胺浓度增高;心脏β-肾上腺素受体(β-AR)数量增加,其中β_1-AR及其mRNA增加,而β_2-AR及其mRNA不变;左心房异丙基肾上腺素(ISO)浓度-收缩效应曲线右移;而心肌ISO浓度-cAMP蓄积曲线无显著改变;血淋巴细胞β-AR数量显著减少.结果提示心功能不全时心脏β_1-AR数量增多,但其介导的正性变力效应反而降低,在cAMP生成以后的信号转导过程或心肌收缩成分功能存在障碍,而血淋巴细胞β-AR的改变与心脏β-AR的功能改变平行.     

Expression of betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase gene and salinity tolerance in rice transgenic plants

Betaine as one of osmolytes plays an important role in osmoregulation of most high plants. Betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase C BADH) is the second enzyme involved in betaine biosynthesis. The BADH gene from a halophite, Atriplex hortensis, was transformed into rice cultivars by bombarment method. Totally 192 transgenic rice plants were obtained and most of them had higher salt tolerance than controls. Among transgenic plants transplanted in the saline pool containing 0.5% NaCl in a greenhouse, 22 survived, 13 of which set seeds, and the frequency of seed setting was very low, only 10% . But the controls could not grow under the same condition. The results of BADH ac-tivity assay and Northern blot showed that the BADH gene was integrated into chromosomes of transgenic plants and expressed.
