糙叶败酱挥发油镇静作用的研究

本文观察了败酱科植物糙叶败酱(Patrinia scabra Bunge)根和根茎中制得的挥发油的镇静作用,井与黄花败酱挥发油做了比较。结果表明,此油灌胃给予数组小鼠,剂量0.45ml/kg,显示如下的作用:[1]能显著延长由于腹腔注射戊巴比妥钠(50mg/kg)引起的小鼠睡眠时间,但其作用强度弱于黄花败酱挥发油。(2)一次灌胃给予小鼠大剂量10.46g/kg的糙叶败酱挥发油,连续观察10天,动物外观正常,无一死亡,体重增加与对照组相似。     

鲢、鳙在天然条件下的摄食强度(Ⅱ)武汉东湖鲢、鳙周年摄食强度的研究

武汉东湖的鲢(Hypophthalmichthy molitrix)鳙(Aristichthys nobilis)在天然条件下摄食强度具季节性变化。摄食强度高峰处于夏季,低谷处于冬季。在实验条件下,按周年采样期间水温变化范围,测定鱼的肠管排空率。食物通过鱼肠管时间(Y_p—h)与水温(X_t—℃)的关系为: 鲢Y_p=270.63 X_t~(0.6408) 鳙Y_p=280.46 X_t~(0.6642) 根据修正后Bajkov公式(D=C (24.A)/n),估算鱼的日粮。鱼日粮(Y_D)与水温(X_t)关系为: 鲢Y_D=0.2683e~(0.1503X_t) 鳙Y_D=0.0075X_t~(2.2715) 计算鱼在天然条件下周年月粮及年粮。鲢、鳙对天然饵料年消耗量分别为18.924公斤及17.39公斤,饵料系数分别为18.02及13.38。     

“引黄济青”输水沿线水生生物分布与蓄水库富营养化关系的研究

“引黄济青”是国家“七五”重点工程,由黄河下游博兴县境内打渔张闸引水,在渠首沉沙后,再经惠民、东营、潍坊和青岛的10个县区约253km的明渠输送,到达唠山县棘洪滩蓄水库蓄存,实现向青岛市日供水3.0×10~5m~3。明渠输水过程中,来白沿线的营养物质会污染水体,加之输水在库中滞留时间长,会不会发生富营养化,这是社会普遍关注的问题。     

自养黄杆菌合成羟基丁酸和羟基戊酸共聚体的发酵研究

采用本实验室从土壤中分离到的一株自养黄杆菌进行了羟基丁酸和羟基戊酸共聚体〔P(HB-co-HV)〕的发酵试验。实验结果表明,该菌株是自养黄杆菌葡萄糖运输突变株,可以葡萄糖、果糖、蔗糖、麦芽糖、乙酸盐、乳酸盐和苹果酸盐作为唯一碳源,尤以葡萄糖和果糖效果最佳。硫酸铵、氯化铵和蛋白胨等不同氮源不影响其生长,却影响细胞中P(HB-co-HV)的含量和P(HB-co-HV)中HV/HB的比例。应用两阶段控制方式,经42h的补料分批发酵,细胞浓度达34.9g·L~(-1),P(HB-co-HV)浓度达25.28g·L~(-1)。细胞和P(HB-co-HV)生产速率系数分别为0.83g·L~(-1)”·h~(-1)和0.61g·L~(-1)·h~(-1)。以基质为基准的细胞得率系数(Yx/s)、产物得率系数(Yp/s)和以干细胞为基准的产物得率系数(Yp/x)分别为0.283(g/g)、0.174(g/g)和0.73(g/g)。改变培养基中碳氮源组分可将P(HB-co-HV)中HB的含量调节在24％～78％之间。     

Differentiation of species in Gonioloboceras

The type specimen ofGonioloboceras goniolobum (Meek), rediscovered by Spath in the British Museum, is the foundation for a more accurate comparative study of this and other species ofGonioloboceras.Gonioloboceras described asG. goniolobum byElias in 1938 is differentiated asGonioloboceras schmidti, new species. Suture sets (new term) for several growth stages inG. goniolobum (Meek),G. welleriSmith,G. schmidtiElias, G.eliasiMiller &Owen, andG. asiaticumLibrovitch are assembled and used for differentiation of the species.The Kazakhstan goniatite faunule containingG. asiaticum is considered of very late Pennsylvanian age.     

Poplar (Populus nigra L.) plants transformed with aBacillus thuringiensis toxin gene: insecticidal activity and genomic analysis

Insect-resistant poplar (Populus nigra L.) plants have been produced by infecting leaves withAgrobacterium tumefaciens strains carrying a binary vector containing different truncated forms of aBacillus thuringiensis (B.t.) toxin gene under a duplicated CaMV 35S promoter. Putative transgenic plants were propagated by cuttings at two experimental farms (in Beijing and Xinjiang, China). At 2–3 years after transformation, 17 of them were selected on the bases of insect-tolerance and good silvicultural traits, and evaluated for insect resistance, for the presence of theB.t. toxin DNA fragment (Southern blots and PCR) and for the expression of the transgene (western and northern blots). Somaclonal variation, as suggested by the appearance of permanent changes in the shape of the leaves, was also investigated with molecular tools (RFLP (restriction fragment length polymorphism), RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) and microsatellite DNA).Bioassays withApochemia cineraius andLymantria dispar on the leaves of the selected clones showed different and, in some cases, high levels of insecticidal activity. The molecular analysis demonstrated integration and expression of the foreign gene. Somatic changes were correlated to extensive genomic changes and were quantified in dendrograms, in terms of genomic similarity. The analysis of control plants suggested that genomic changes were correlated to thein vitro culture step necessary forA. tumefaciens-mediated gene transfer, rather than to the integration of the foreign genes.Three transgenic clones (12, 153 and 192), selected for insect resistance, reduced morphological changes and promising silvicultural traits, are now under large-scale field evaluation in six different provinces in China.
