Predicting responses of photosynthesis and root fraction to elevated [CO2]a: interactions among carbon,nitrogen, and growth*

At elevated atmospheric CO₂ concentrations ([CO₂]_a), photosynthetic capacity (A_max) and root fraction (η_R, the ratio of root to plant dry mass) increased in some studies and decreased in others. Here, we have explored possible causes of this, focusing on the relative magnitudes of the effects of elevated [CO₂]_a on specific leaf (n_m) and plant (n_p) nitrogen concentrations, leaf mass per unit area (h), and plant nitrogen productivity (α). In our survey of 39 studies with 35 species, we found that elevated [CO₂]_a led to decreased n_m and n_p in all the studies and to increased h and α in most of the studies. The magnitudes of these changes varied with species and with experimental conditions. Based on a model that integrated [CO₂]_a-induced changes in leaf nitrogen into a biochemically based model of leaf photosynthesis, we predicted that, to a first approximation, photosynthesis will be upregulated (A_max will increase) when growth at increased [CO₂]_a leads to increases in h that are larger than decreases in n_m. Photosynthesis will be downregulated (A_max will decrease) when increases in h are smaller than decreases in n_m. The model suggests that photosynthetic capacity increases at elevated [CO₂]_a only when additional leaf mesophyll more than compensates the effects of nitrogen dilution. We considered two kinds of regulatory paradigms that could lead to varying responses of η_R to elevated [CO₂]_a, and compared the predictions of each with the data. A simple static model based on the functional balance concept predicts that η_R should increase when neither n_p nor h is very responsive to elevated [CO₂]_a. The quantitative and qualitative agreement of the predictions with data from the literature, however, is poor. A model that predicts η_R from the relative sensitivities of photosynthesis and relative growth rate to elevated [CO₂]_a corresponds much more closely to the observations. In general, root fraction increases if the response of photosynthesis to [CO₂]_a is greater than that of relative growth rate.     

人工饲养蒙新河狸的发情交配行为

人工饲养的蒙新河猪其动情周期可划分为４个阶段：动情前期、动情期（发情交配期）、动情后期和停滞期（动情间隔期）。动情期间雌雄河狸均表现出活跃好动,浮躁不安,食量减小;发情交配期雌雄河狸均发出低沉嘶哑的叫声,雄性叫声频率比性略高,爬跨交配是动情期发情的高峰,动情周期各阶段的行为特征,在雌性与阴道涂片细胞学及外生殖器形态、色泽、阴道分泌物周期性变化特征相吻合,在雄性则与睾丸及阴茎形态特征吻合,在人工饲养     

穗花杉染色体的研究

穗花杉为国家三级重点保护的珍稀濒危植物,雌雄异株。根尖细胞染色体分析表明：雌株和雄株的染色体数目为２ｎ＝４０,其中第１对和第２对为中部着丝粒染色体,第３－２０对为端部着丝粒染色体。核型为２ｎ＝４０＝４ｍ＋３６Ｔ。雌雄株除第２对的长度稍有差异外,其余各对的相对长度和臂比都较近似,可能尚无性染色体分化。Ｇｉｅｍｓａ Ｃ带显示,间期核有３个较大的染色中心,最长的３条染色体的中央缢痕有深染色带纹,可能是着

Coordinated mRNA and Protein Expression of Human LAMP-1 in Induction of Melanogenesis After UV-B Exposure and Co-Transfection of Human Tyrosinase and TRP-1 cDNAs

In order to better understand the cascade of melanogenic events in melanocytes, this report has introduced our two recent approaches for the expression of melanogenesis/or melanosome-associated genes and encoded proteins in melanocytes (melanoma cells) after repeated exposure to UV -B and after cotransfection of two human genes, i.e., tyrosinase and tyrosinase-related protein-1 (TRP-1). Repeated exposure of UV B (2.5–5.0 mJ/cm²) caused not only upregulation of tyrosinase and TRP-1 genes but also coordinated increase in the gene and protein synthesis expression of Lamp-1 (lysosome-associated membrane protein-1). When COS-7 kidney cells and amelanotic melanoma (C32 and SKMEL-24) and melanotic melanoma (G361 and SK-MEL-23) cells were exposed to cotransfection of human tyrosinase and TRP-1 cDNAs, there was also an increased expression of Lamp-1 mRNA and protein along with tyrosinase activation and new melanin synthesis. Importantly, single transfectants of human tyrosinase cDNA revealed marked cellular degeneration, whereas this degeneration was not seen in single transfectants of TRP-1 cDNA or cotransfectants of human tyrosinase and TRP-1 cDNAs, indicating that TRP-1 prevented, along with Lamp-1, programmed death of melanocytes after transfection of tyrosinase gene. The coordinated expression of TRP-1 and Lamp-1 was further confirmed by antisense oligodeoxynucleotide hybridization experiment against Lamp-1 gene, showing the decreased expression of TRP-1 as identified by three different types of anti-TRP-1 monoclonal antibodies. We propose therefore that human tyrosinase and TRP-l, when activated or expressed together, will coordinate to upregulate the mRNA expression and protein synthesis of Lamp-1. The Lamp-1 molecules will, in turn, cover the inner surface of melanosomal membrane, together with TRP-1 molecules, thus protecting the melanosomal membrane from toxic melanin intermediates generated during melanogenesis in the presence of active tyrosinase. In contrast, the expression of other lysosome-related proteins, e.g., β-galactosidase and CD63 is not stimulated in new melanogenesis.
