地黄自毒物质提取及其生物指标测定

连作障碍在药用植物地黄(Rehmannia glutinosa L.)栽培中尤其明显,同一地块上种植一茬地黄后,须经8-10a后方可再种。从怀地黄主产区河南省焦作地区采集种植1a地黄的茬后土壤,采用不同溶剂提取地黄土壤自毒物质并利用生物测试确定抑制率最强的土壤提取液作温室栽培实验以确定对植物生理指标的影响。利用高效液相色谱法(HPLC)对土壤提取液和根系分泌物进行比较,并利用高效液相色谱、傅立叶转换红外光谱(FTIR)和电喷雾离子阱质谱(ESI-MS)技术鉴定地黄连作自毒物质的化学成分。生物测试结果表明水和甲醇提取的地黄茬后土壤自毒物质对地黄生长具有最强的抑制作用;在培养器中加入浓度0.5g/mL的水和甲醇提取液对地黄胚根的抑制率分别达17%和26%,当浓度增至5.0g/mL时,抑制率增加到70%以上。盆栽结果显示甲醇提取的自毒物质导致地黄地上部叶绿素含量减少,根系活力下降,明显抑制了地黄体内超氧化物歧化酶、过氧化物歧化酶、过氧化物酶的活性,加剧了地黄膜质过氧化,以及引起地黄植体内生长素类激素含量下降。高效液相色谱法显示土壤提取液和根系分泌物具有相似图谱。电喷雾离子阱质谱分析共检测到6个特征物质:香草酸、D-甘露醇、二十六烷酸苯羟基乙酯、毛蕊花糖苷、β-谷甾醇和胡萝卜苷。     

TEB/POLQ plays dual roles in protecting Arabidopsis from NO-induced DNA damage

Nitric oxide (NO) is a key player in numerous physiological processes. Excessive NO induces DNA damage, but how plants respond to this damage remains unclear. We screened and identified an Arabidopsis NO hypersensitive mutant and found it to be allelic to TEBICHI/POLQ, encoding DNA polymerase θ. The teb mutant plants were preferentially sensitive to NO- and its derivative peroxynitrite-induced DNA damage and subsequent double-strand breaks (DSBs). Inactivation of TEB caused the accumulation of spontaneous DSBs largely attributed to endogenous NO and was synergistic to DSB repair pathway mutations with respect to growth. These effects were manifested in the presence of NO-inducing agents and relieved by NO scavengers. NO induced G2/M cell cycle arrest in the teb mutant, indicative of stalled replication forks. Genetic analyses indicate that Polθ is required for translesion DNA synthesis across NO-induced lesions, but not oxidation-induced lesions. Whole-genome sequencing revealed that Polθ bypasses NO-induced base adducts in an error-free manner and generates mutations characteristic of Polθ-mediated end joining. Our experimental data collectively suggests that Polθ plays dual roles in protecting plants from NO-induced DNA damage. Since Polθ is conserved in higher eukaryotes, mammalian Polθ may also be required for balancing NO physiological signaling and genotoxicity.     

黄土高原沟壑区王东沟小流域土壤有机碳空间分布

地貌和土地利用是影响土壤有机碳(Soil organic carbon,SOC)空间变异的重要因素。以黄土高原沟壑区王东沟小流域(8.3 km2)为对象,在考虑地貌单元和土地利用影响的基础上,采集0—20cm样品448个,0—200cm样品33个。研究了地貌单元(塬面、塬坡和沟道)和土地利用方式对SOC含量的影响。结果表明,地貌单元和土地利用对小流域表层和深层SOC的含量分布影响都有显著差异。0—20cm土层的SOC含量,沟道塬面塬坡;塬面表层SOC含量的变化平缓;塬坡和沟道SOC变异大于塬面。0—200cm土层SOC三地貌单元差异达极显著水平(P99.9%),塬面SOC含量最高(5.37g kg-1),塬坡(3.06 gkg-1)最低。不同地貌单元条件下土地利用方式对表层和剖面SOC含量分布的影响也存在明显差异。塬面区,人工草地SOC含量亦明显高于农田和果园,但仅40cm以上土层SOC达到显著差异。在塬坡上,不同土地利用类型间,发生显著差异深度达到140cm。沟道内,林草两种土地利用类型间的SOC含量无显著差异。在估算该地区SOC密度和储量时,需要充分考虑地貌单元和土地利用方式的影响。     

多位点DNA指纹技术在保加利亚普通田鼠中的应用探讨

DNA指纹是一种重要的现代分子遗传学标记技术（Jeffreys et al．,1985）,它所揭示的是生物体大量的、无遗传编码信息的、具有高度多态性的卫星DNA（Chen,1996）。这些DNA序列往往占据了生物体基因组总量的80％以上,由于它不编码蛋白基因,在系统发育过程中,通常不被自然选择和人工选择,使得生物变异积累形成个体基因组间的巨大差异。因此,DNA指纹受到生物学家的青睐,以用于生物个体和群体的基因组分析（Burke and Bruford,1987;Buitmap et al．,1991;Weising et al．,1995）。     

哺乳动物毛被传热性能及其影响因素

毛被能够加强或减弱动物向周围环境的热量散失,毛被的形态结构和颜色是传热性能的决定因素,其传热过程往往是传导、对流和辐射3个过程的耦合。以往研究发现环境因子中,风可增加机体向环境中的散热速率,且散失量与风速正相关,且动物通过调节在风场中的姿态来适应不同风向。动物体与环境间的温差是影响散热速率的另一因素,不同环境中的动物通过改变毛被结构来适应温差变化。毛被含水率上升会引起导热和蒸发冷却作用加强,动物通过行为或毛被结构变化来调节毛被含水率。毛色决定毛被吸收和反射热辐射的能力。毛被传热性能直接把动物的生理特点与环境因子关联起来,这对揭示动物的适应、进化都具有重要意义。同时提出,毛被结构和传热性能的研究还有助于仿生学意义的挖掘。因此,今后应重点在毛被结构和物理性能、研究技术与方法以及毛被生物学和仿生学意义等方面开展研究。     

Effect of papaya (Carica papaya) leaf extract as dietary growth promoter supplement in red hybrid tilapia (Oreochromis mossambicus × Oreochromis niloticus) diet

The purpose of this experiment was to examine the potential use of Carica papaya leaf extract as a supplement to promote growth and improve feed utilization in red hybrid tilapia. Five diets were formulated containing isolipidic (80 g/kg) and isonitrogenic (350 g/kg) levels. All feeds contained similar types and amounts of raw materials but differed in the inclusion of papaya leaf extract (0, 5, 10, 20 and 40 g/kg feed). The initial size of fish used was 2.3 ± 0.01 g. Each diet was performed in triplicate tanks, and the feeding period was 12 weeks. Fish fed diet containing 2% papaya leaf extract (PLE) had the highest final weight, 31.14 ± 1.47 g, followed by 1% PLE (27.27 ± 1.75 g). These two diets (1% and 2%) were also showed significant improvements of weight gain, SGR, and feed efficiency of the red hybrid tilapia (p < 0.05). However, papaya leaf extract did not affect the HSI, VSI, PER, digestive enzymes activity, blood composition, and survival rate. Supplementing the diets with papaya leaf extract lowered serum urea. Findings of this research suggest that adding papaya leaf extract to the diet of red hybrid tilapia improves growth and feed efficiency without adversely affecting blood parameters. Therefore, an inclusion level between 1% and 2% of the papaya leaf extract is recommended as a feed additive to promote red hybrid tilapia fry growth.
