不同饲养密度对亮斑扁角水虻幼虫生长发育及新鲜牛粪转化率的影响

为了解决养牛业中粪便污染问题,本研究利用亮斑扁角水虻(黑水虻)来转化利用牛粪,探讨了饲养密度对新鲜牛粪的转化效率。本试验以亮斑扁角水虻为研究对象,选择设置每20.0 kg牛粪投入3500头、8750头、17500头4日龄幼虫3个处理密度,在每个密度日均1.0 kg等量饲喂条件下,分析亮斑扁角水虻幼虫百虫重、粗蛋白、粗脂肪、牛粪转化率指标的差异,探索一种适于亮斑扁角水虻幼虫处理新鲜牛粪的饲养密度。结果表明:百虫重、粗蛋白、粗脂肪3个指标在3组处理之间都存在极显著差异。百虫重和粗脂肪两个指标和试验组密度情况在0.01的水平上显著负相关,但3个处理中转化率最高的为8750头的饲养密度。综合评价认为亮斑扁角水虻4日龄幼虫8750头/20.0 kg牛粪的投入量为实验范围内最佳饲养密度。     

Obtaining of mutants of Streptomyces fradiae producing tylosin by action of nitrosomethylurea on synchronously germinating spores

The method of localized mutagenesis was applied to obtain mutants of Streptomyces fradiae producing higher amounts of tylosin. The populations of the germinating spores were subjected to a short-term treatment with nitrosomethylurea during different periods of the first DNA replication cycle. The method reveals defines periods sensitive to mutation induction and isolates a mutant producing a 60% increase in the yield of tylosin as compared to that provided by the stock strain.     

Phylogeography of pacific herring Clupea pallasii from Eurasian seas

Eleven samples of Pacific herring from the four seas of Eurasia (Sea of Japan, Sea of Okhotsk, Bering Sea, and White Sea), and one sample of Atlantic herring were analyzed. Complete and partial sequences of the mtDNA control region with the sizes up to 1071 bp were used. To verify the haplogroups identified, additional sequencing of the cytochrome oxidase I gene was performed. It was demonstrated that Pacific herring from the seas of Eurasia belonged to one mitochondrial haplogroup. The gene flow between the localities from different parts of the Far Eastern sea basins was about 11% per locality, per generation, which led to constant leveling of herring intraspecific differentiation. The data presented gave no reasons for subdivision of the herring populations in accordance to ecological characters (lacustrine and marine). Analysis of global molecular variance (global AMOVA) demonstrated that in Asian water basins, more than 98% of molecular polymorphism was found within the samples at the low level of significance (P < 0.05).     

Extracellular chitinase production by wild-type B-10 and mutant M-1 strains of Serratia marcescens

Molecular weights of extracellular chitinases from wild-type B-10 (62, 54, 43, 38, and 21 kDa) and mutant M-1 strains of Serratia marcescens (62, 52, 43, 38, and 21 kDa) were estimated by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. In the absence of chitin inductors, chitinolytic enzymes were not found in the culture liquid of B-10, while M-10 cells produced the chitinase complex (to 470 pU/cell). Crystalline chitin insignificantly stimulated the synthesis of chitinases with molecular weights of 62, 54, and 21 kDa by B-10 (up to 20 pU/cell), but caused overproduction of all chitinases by the mutant strain (up to 2600 pU/cell). Colloidal chitin induced the production of chitinases by cells of both strains. Two peaks of chitinolytic activity were observed during cultivation of strains B-10 (350 and 450 pU/cell) and M-1 (2200 and 2400 pU/cell). The first peak of cell productivity was associated with biosynthesis of the chitinase complex. The second peak was related to the production of enzymes with molecular weights of 54, 43, 38, and 21 kDa (B-10) or 43, 38, and 21 kDa (M-1).     

The first report on the induction of hairy roots in Trapa natans,a unique aquatic plant with photosynthesizing roots

Hairy root cultures are often used to produce valuable metabolites. They are grown on sucrose-rich medium, which is highly susceptible to contamination. Trapa natans is a unique plant with photosynthesizing roots. It is a promising object to obtain photoautotrophic hairy root culture. Protocols for transformation of this species are yet unknown. We report that hairy roots can be induced in aquarium and in vitro cultures of T. natans by agrobacterium-mediated and biolistic transformation. 64 roots were induced by Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain 15834, two roots were obtained using strain K599. Strain A4 was not effective. Biolistics with either amplicons of rol genes and 1301 pCAMBIA plasmid carrying rol genes resulted in the formation of six roots. All these roots contained chloroplasts. This achievement opens a prospect for genetic transformation of T. natans and use of its green photosynthesizing hairy root cultures in production of bioactive substances and in phytoremediation.

     

3种落叶松幼苗对CO2升高的光合生理响应

采用Li-6400便携式光合作用测定系统研究CO2升高对长白落叶松(Larix olgensisHerry.),日本落叶松(Larix kaempferiCarr.)和兴安落叶松(LarixgmeliniRupr.)当年生和1年生幼苗的光合特性的影响。结果表明:CO2升高使3种落叶松光饱和光合速率(Pmax)和呼吸速率均有不同程度的增加,其中,长白落叶松当年生和1年生幼苗Pmax分别比对照提高了91%和83%,日本落叶松当年生和1年生幼苗Pmax分别比对照提高了71%和94%,而兴安落叶松当年生和1年生幼苗Pmax分别比对照提高了32%和106%。除兴安落叶松外,CO2升高使所有落叶松当年生幼苗的光补偿点(LCP)下降,说明当年生幼苗对CO2浓度升高的反应更敏感。CO2升高使日本落叶松当年生和1年生幼苗光饱和点(LSP)都升高,反映了其光合作用提高的潜力较大。CO2升高条件下,除1年生兴安落叶松外,其他处理的落叶松最大量子效率(AQYmax)均增加。比较分析表明,在未来大气CO2浓度升高条件下,日本落叶松的生长潜能可能最大,具有较强的生态优势,长白落叶松次之,兴安落叶松最小。     

小兴安岭4种原始红松林群落类型生长季土壤呼吸特征

为阐明小兴安岭地带性植被原始红松林土壤呼吸各组分的碳排放速率及其对土壤水热变化的响应规律,采用挖壕法和红外气体分析法测定土壤表面CO2通量(Rs),确定4种原始红松林群落类型生长季的土壤总呼吸(Rt)中土壤微生物呼吸(Rh),根系呼吸(Rr)和凋落物呼吸(Rl)的贡献量动态变化及其影响因子。结果表明:生长季内,4种原始红松林群落类型的Rt、Rh、Rr具有明显的季节性变化,7-9月份较高,6月份和10月份较低。Rh对Rt的贡献量最高,平均在58.8%;Rr对Rt的贡献量次之,平均为26.5%;Rl对Rt的贡献量相对较小,平均为12.5%。生长季土壤呼吸速率与5cm深土壤温度相关性极显著(P0.01)。Rr和Rh的Q10值分别为2.88和2.23。表明根呼吸对土壤温度的敏感性高于微生物呼吸。生长季平均土壤呼吸速率的依次为:椴树红松林(6.38μmol·m-·2s-1)云冷杉红松林(6.32μmol·m-·2s-1)枫桦红松林(5.95μmol·m-·2s-1)蒙古栎红松林(2.86μmol·m-·2s-1)。4种原始叶红松林群落类型间的Rh和Rr也存在一定差异。     

植物酶系统对UV-B辐射的响应机制

紫外辐射作为一种自然界存在的环境因子,影响着植物的生长发育。在植物从太阳辐射中获得光照和热量的同时,不可避免地要受到UV-B辐射的胁迫。植物在长期对环境的适应中,在体内形成了防御系统,以保护自身的安全,酶系统是其中之一。植物酶系统在实施防护的同时也受到了UV-B辐射的影响,信号分子对调节酶响应UV-B胁迫起了关键作用。本文重点论述了UV-B辐射增强下,植物酶系统的变化、植物酶系统的响应机制以及酶系统与信号物质的关系,并对该领域未来的研究方向提出了展望。     

牦牛SRY和TRO基因部分序列克隆与测序分析

对牦牛SRY和TRO的部分基因克隆和序列分析,以期为进一步开展该基因与其性别相关分析,进行性染色体的基因定位、以及分子标记辅助选择等研究提供了理论依据。用特定引物对牦牛和西门塔尔牛的SRY、TRO基因部分序列进行扩增并进行TA克隆和测序。通过测序结果与普通牛的比对分析表明,这两个基因区域在牛种中有极高的保守性。牦牛与普通牛SRY和TRO基因这两个区域的核酸同源性分别达到了99．08％和99．39％。根据对这两个基因序列的研究为精子或者胚胎的性别鉴定提供有力的理论基础。
