Analytical study of the effects of some soil and plant parameters on root growth due to absorption of one mobile ion: A free-boundary model

The object of our study is: a model for root growth through a free-boundary problem and the effects resulting from differences in nutrient availability and transport of only one mobile nutrient between the root surface and the rhizosphere produced by an absorption Michaelis-Menten for low and high concentrations. The model equations are solved by two methods: the quasi-stationary method and the balance integral method. The numerical solutions are used to compute radial root growth. Curves of nutrient concentration at the root-soil interface, curve as a function of root radius as well as curves representing root radius as a function of time are plotted. The parameters which are varied are the root absorption power, flux velocity at the root surface, efflux, rhizosphere radius, diffusion coefficient, buffer power, and maximum influx. The two methods show the theoretical results for radial root growth in the range of low and high concentrations. The balance integral method provides more detailed information.     

Bayesian analysis of linkage between genetic markers and quantitative trait loci. I. Prior knowledge

Summary Prior information on gene effects at individual quantitative trait loci (QTL) and on recombination rates between marker loci and QTL is derived. The prior distribution of QTL gene effects is assumed to be exponential with major effects less likely than minor ones. The prior probability of linkage between a marker and another single locus is a function of the number and length of chromosomes, and of the map function relating recombination rate to genetic distance among loci. The prior probability of linkage between a marker locus and a quantitative trait depends additionally on the number of detectable QTL, which may be determined from total additive genetic variance and minimum detectable QTL effect. The use of this prior information should improve linkage tests and estimates of QTL effects.     

天花粉蛋白与FMP复合物的晶体结构

用浸泡法得到了天花粉蛋白（ＴＣＳ）与ＦＭＰ复合物的晶体,在ＳＩＭＥＮＮＳＸ－２００Ｂ面探测器系统上收集了一套２．０分辨率的Ｘ射线衍射数据。用同晶差值傅立叶法解析了复合物的结构,经Ｘ—ＰＬＯＲ程序修正得到了ＴＣＳ—ＦＭＰ复合物的分子结构并找出了１９７个水分子,最后的Ｒ因子为０．１７２,键长和键角的ＲＭＳ偏差分别为０．０１５和２．９２２度。ＴＣＳ—ＦＭＰ复合物中,ＦＭＰ与天花粉蛋白分子有较好的结合,其结合位置正处于根据三维结构和突变体信息推测的Ｎ一糖苷酶活性口袋之中。它的类嘌呤环夹在Ｙ７０和Ｙ１１１两个侧链环之间,与Ｙ７０环近乎平行,其Ｎ７和Ｎ６分别与ＴＣＳ分子的Ｇ１０９４羰基氧和Ｉ７１的Ｎ成氢键,Ｎ３靠近Ｒ１６３的侧链,其磷酸根则伸向活性口袋的底部,与Ｅ１８９、Ｅ１６０和Ｒ１６３等残基作用。

河南木兰属9种植物过氧化物同工酶分析

本文采用聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳系统,测定了河南木兰属8种、1变种50多份的成熟叶片材料的过氧化物同工酶酶谱。测定结果表明,该属植物9种、变种的酶谱均有差异性,每种、变种均有特征酶谱,种间酶谱显著大于种内酶谱,根据其酶谱差异性,可以进行生物种、变种的鉴别和良种的选择。为免除其酶带Rf单一指标,鉴别生物种、变种可能出现的问题,作者创立了"酶谱多指标综合判断距离法"分析技术,首次将该属植物种、变种酶谱的酶带数目、Rf、酶带宽度及其活性强弱4个因子的差异性,进行编码联机、电脑运算分析,其结果与该属玉兰亚属内的玉兰派和辛夷派的形态分类相吻合。但是,从酶学观点不支持椭圆叶玉兰作为独立种的存在,以作为河南玉兰的变种为宜,也不支持河南玉兰派和腋花玉兰派的成立,以并入辛夷派为佳。     

大鼠食管胸段，腹段乙酰胆碱酯酶阳性神经的配布

大鼠食管胸段和腹段壁内乙酰胆碱酯酶（ＡＣｈＥ）阳性神经存在于神经束和分支的粗细神经纤维内,也见于外膜丛,肌间丛,粘膜下丛和粘膜肌内。食管肌层内ＡＣｈＥ阳性神经纤维多而密集,而食管腹段肌内尤为丰富,肌间神经纤维末梢分布于肌束表面,可能与控制肌纤维活动有关;分布于肌内,粘膜下层和上皮基部的ＡＣｈＥ阳性神经中,尚含有内脏感觉神经纤维。食管壁的肌间丛和粘膜下丛内散在有多极形和卵园形的ＡＣｈＥ阳性神经元,在食管腹段内数多,而以中小型神经元为主。

Thermoluminescence studies of zinc borate (ZnB2O4) phosphor doped with rare earths for dosimetric aspects

A series of ZnB₂O₄ phosphors doped with different concentrations of Eu and Dy (0.05 0.1, 0.2, 0.5, 1.0 mol%) and co-doped with Ce (1, 2, 5, 7, 10 mol%) respectively was prepared via the solid-state reaction technique and the thermoluminescence (TL) behaviour of gamma ray-irradiated samples was studied. The synthesized samples were irradiated with γ-rays for the dose range 0.03–1.20 kGy. The TL intensity variations with dose, dopant concentration, and the effect of co-doping were studied. The TL response curves for ZnB₂O₄:Eu³⁺ and ZnB₂O₄:Dy³⁺, ZnB₂O₄:Eu³,Ce³⁺ and ZnB₂O₄:Dy³⁺,Ce³⁺ phosphor were observed. It was revealed that ZnB₂O₄:Eu³⁺ showed a linear TL behaviour for the dose 0.03–1.20 kGy and ZnB₂O₄:Dy³⁺ showed linearity for the gamma dose range 0.03–0.10 kGy. Furthermore, fading for all the samples was observed to be less than 10% for a storage period of 30 days. In addition to this, the trapping parameters, especially activation energies were evaluated using the Ilich method and the initial rise method. The activation energy values obtained from both methods were in complete agreement with each other.
