三种野生和四个栽培棉种的核型研究

作者对棉属 D 组的瑟伯氏棉(Gossypium thurberi)、戴维逊氏棉(C.davidsonii)、雷蒙德氏棉(G.raimondii)、A 组的草棉(G.herbaceum)、中棉(G.arboreum)、AD 组的陆地棉(G.htrsutum)和海岛棉(C.barbadense)等7个种的核型进行了研究。各个种的核型可简式为:瑟伯氏棉2n=2x=26=24m 2Sm(2SAT);戴维逊氏棉20=2x=26=20m 6Sm(4SAT);雷蒙德氏棉2n=2x=26=20m 6Sm(2SAT);草棉2n=2x=26=18m 4Sm 4St(4SAT);中棉2n=2x=26=18m 6Sm(2SAT) 2St(2SAT);陆地棉2n=4x=52=32m 18Sm(4SAT) 2St(2SAT);海岛棉20=4x=52=38m 12Sm(2SAT) 2St(2SAT)。此外,作者对四倍体种的 A 组和 D 组的供体问题进行了讨论。     

水稻品种超氧物歧化酶(SOD)活性与氧抑光合的关系

O_2抑光合程度不同的水稻品种,SOD活性存在差异。在40％O_2下,SOD活性被诱导增加水平高、延续时间长的品种,表现O_2抑光合程度小,反之则O_2抑光合程度大。在自然条件下,强光、高温都是诱导SOD活性变化的因素。选择SOD活性高、O_2抑光合程度小的种质资源可能有利于适应对光合不利的逆境条件。     

An extra atrioventricular node in an anomalous heart of a calf

An extra atrioventricular node in a double outlet ventricle with a quite normal inflow septum in a calf is described. The anomaly resembles the topography of the conducting system in the calf heart in the embryonic stages from 13.5 mm-90 mm.

陆地棉半野生种系的细胞学研究

对原产于墨西哥的8个陆地棉半野生种系进行了核型分析。其根尖细胞的染色体数目均为52。“墨西哥棉”、“阔叶棉”、“帕默尔氏棉”和“尖斑棉”为1B 核型。其中以“墨西哥棉”最为原始,2n=4x=52=44m(6SAT) 8sm。“尤卡坦棉”、“玛利加郎特棉”、“莫利尔氏棉”和“雷奇蒙德氏棉”为2B 核型。其中以后两个种系最进化,2n=4x=52=32m(2或4SAT) 20sm。讨论了各种系之间的可能的演化关系。     

不同底物与固氮酶及其钼铁蛋白相互作用的荧光光谱分析

 本文研究了不同底物(N_2,H_2,N_2O,NaN_3,C_2H_2)对棕色固氮菌固氮酶及其钼铁蛋白荧光光谱的影响。结果表明,上述底物均能络合在钼铁蛋白及固氮酶上,但络合程度不同,从而为固氮酶系统有多个不同的底物络合中心,底物络合中心在钼铁蛋白分子上,铁蛋白对钼铁蛋白有变构作用,提供了光谱学证据。     

懒猴属的核糖体DNA变异及其种间分化关系

用１５种限制性内切酶和人２８Ｓ、１８ＳｒＤＮＡ探针构建了懒猴属各物种核糖体ＤＮＡ重复单位的限制性内切酶图谱。在进化速率较高的非转录间隔区,在大、中、小懒猴中分别定位了２３、２４、２４个酶切位点。大懒猴与中懒猴有１２个位点不同,与小懒猴有１４个位点不同,而中、小懒猴间则只有一个位点的差异。经过计算,大懒猴与中懒猴的遗传距离值为１２．６５％,与小懒猴的差异为１４．２４％,中、小懒猴间的差异则仅为０．７     

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for the detection of antisperm antibodies in horse serum

An enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was developed and evaluated to detect equine antisperm antibodies (ASA) in horse serum. Six maiden mares between 12 and 18 mo of age were immunized with stallion sperm cells (SC group, N=2), seminal plasma (SP group, N=2), or phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) as a control (C group, N=2). Horses received a second injection of the same antigen 2 wk after the first. Blood was collected weekly for 10 wk after initial immunization and again at Week 15. Serum ASA levels (IgG and IgA) were measured by ELISA using two assay systems, one containing stallion SC as the plate antigen and another containing SP.

In horses immunized with SC, peak IgG levels were detected by ELISA during Wk 2 and 3 after first injection using either plate antigen. The antibody levels persisted through Week 5 and then slowly declined until Week 15. Horses immunized with SP had IgG levels that did not differ from control horses using either ELISA plate antigen. The only significant elevation in serum IgA ASA occured during Week 5 after initial immunization and only in mares immunized with SC as detected by ELISA using SC as the plate antigen. Attachment of ASA to stallion spermatozoa was confirmed by an indirect immunofluorescence assay.
