元江干热河谷山地五百年来植被变迁探讨

元江河谷是云南省最干热地区之一,在海拔800—900米以下的山地上广泛分布着稀树灌草丛。根据《元江府志》(1714年编纂)、《元江州志》(1826年编纂)、《元江志稿》(1922年编篡)及对现存植被的考察,本文探讨了元江干热河谷山地五百年来植被的变迁。 元江县森林复盖率的减少与人口的增加有密切关系,十七世纪中期以前,森林复盖率在75％以上,十八、十九世纪时为70％左右,1958年为61.5％,1975年为27.3％,至1982年则为19.3％。研究表明,在十九世纪以前,这个地区分布的主要植被是热带季雨林,甚而热带季节雨林,以后热带稀树灌草丛则迅速发展。植被的历史变化与土壤流失密切相关。植物群落的演变是由以乔木树种为优势演变为以灌木种类为优势,再演变为以多年生草木植物为优势,而最后则成为裸地。本文也讨论了这个地区植被恢复的方法。     

鸡疟原虫孢子体超微结构的观察

埃及伊蚊感染鸡疟原虫（Plasmodium gallinaceum）18天后解剖,电镜下观察唾液腺内孢子体的形态。孢子体长7μm、宽0.8μm;复合膜由一层外膜、二层内膜及膜下微管组成。发达的膜下微管与孢子体重要的运动功能有关。细胞核约位于正中。胞质较均一,有时有空泡存在,胞质中有散在核糖体,未观察到内质网。孢子体有胞口。发达的棒状体及众多的微线体,可能与孢子体需侵入媒介唾液腺细胞、尔后再侵入鸟类宿主中胚层细胞有关。因而,任何作用于棒状体、微线体并导致其结构及功能变化的药物,都将影响甚至阻断孢子体对宿主细胞的入侵,这就为疟疾的药物预防提供重要理论依据。     

中国人ε珠蛋白基因5′侧序列中多态性Hinc Ⅱ位点的进一步研究

本文进一步研究了我国不同民族的正常个体以及β地中海贫血患者θ珠蛋白基因5′侧序列中的多态性HincⅡ位点及其遗传性质。在广西壮族正常个体和β地中海贫血纯合子中,该多态性位点的发生频率均为75％,与正常汉族人测得值相近。家系分析资料表明,该多态性位点完全按照孟德尔规律进行遗传。     

Ultrastructural studies on the reproductive organs of Porphyra haitanensis T. J. Chang et B. F. Zheng

A study of food and food selection of Penaeus monodon (Fabricius) on the Sudanese Red Sea coast was carried out. Juveniles feed mainly on algal material. Adults feed on crustacea, annelids, algae, mud and unidentified matter. Adults were opportunistic in their feeding behaviour, but their preference was towards animal protein.Antennae, mouth parts and fore-chelipeds were found to carry long, slender setae which are probably of sensory function. Some setae on the carpus of the endopodite were serrated and seem to be used in grooming. Numerous tufts of setae in the chela of the fore periopods may hold a gustatory function. The inner edges of the chela are lined with a row of peg-like setae, which are probably another site of reception.     

Computer control for continuous cultivation ofSaccharomyces cerevisiae

Summary An on-line respiratory quotient control system has been developed for the continuous cultivation of baker's yeast. This system is based on moving identification of the microbial dynamics. The optimal dilution rate that was selected as the control variable was determined by minimizing a performance index. Without resorting to complicated microbial analysis, a simple and practical moving model is obtained by continually updating the input and output data. The experimental results indicate the satisfactory controllability of the present system and the possible extention of the proposed method to other bioprocesses.     

Enhanced susceptibility of target KMT-17 cells to activated macrophages by treatment with the antitumor agent bleomycin

Summary We observed that after KMT-17 cells had been treated with bleomycin (BLM), even with a dose as high as 160 g/ml, they were still able to form colonies in soft agar. We then studied the susceptibility of KMT-17 cells treated with BLM to activated macrophages. During a colony inhibition assay, BLM-treated KMT-17 cells were found to be much more susceptile to activated macrophages than nontreated KMT-17 cells, moreover, a tumor neutralizing assay showed that the growth of BLM-treated KMT-17 cells was also significantly inhibited by activated macrophages as compared with nontreated KMT-17 cells. Macrophages activated by both BLM and the Nocardia rubra cell wall skeleton were able to mediate such tumor inhibition activity in BLM-treated KMT-17 cells. Activated macrophages did not seem to have strong antitumor activity against nontreated KMT-17 cells in vivo, however, the life span of the rats which were inoculated i. p. with KMT-17 cells was significantly expanded after the tumorbearing rats were given BLM i.p. The data presented here suggest that not only does BLM have a direct tumoricidal effect on KMT-17 cells, it also regulates immunosensitivity of targets to immune effectors. We also discuss the mechanism for enhancing the susceptibility of KMT-17 cells to activated macrophages brought about by treatment with BLM.Supported in part by a Grant-in-Aid for Cancer Research from the Japanese Ministry of Education, Science, and Culture

Biosynthesis of Bacillus licheniformis penicillinase in Escherichia coli and in Bacillus subtilis.

Modified prepenicillinase was accumulated in both Escherichia coli and Bacillus subtilis treated with globomycin. Although the inhibitions of processings of prepenicillinase and prolipoprotein by globomycin in E. coli are qualitatively similar, they differ in the degree of inhibition at given concentrations of globomycin. The processing of prepenicillinase proceeds much more rapidly in E. coli than in B. subtilis.
