The taxonomy,genetics, production and uses of the cultivated species ofCucurbita

Hundreds of varieties in the five reco?nized species of this ?enus, all native to the Americas, are the sources of the well known pumpkins and squashes, of which about 150,000 tons, fresh wei?ht, in 481/2 million No. 2 cans, is the annual canned pack alone in the United States. The seeds constitute a potential but so far wholly undeveloped source of valuable oil.

气候变化对黄淮海平原冬小麦产量和耗水的影响及品种适应性评估

基于IPCC5 3种代表性温室气体浓度排放路径(RCP)的情景集成数据,采用VIP生态水文模型,模拟分析了黄淮海平原未来冬小麦产量、蒸散量的气候变化响应.模拟结果表明:未考虑CO2肥效时,3种典型排放路径下,冬小麦生育期都将因气温上升而缩短,其产量和蒸散量将呈下降趋势.CO2浓度增加对作物生长的有利影响强于气候变化带来的不利影响,是未来情景下冬小麦产量增加的主要原因.以RCP4.5为例,2050s黄淮海地区冬小麦平均产量将增加14.8%(无CO2肥效时产量下降2.5%),蒸散量降低2.1%.采用积温需求更高的品种将有利于冬小麦利用CO2肥效提高其产量,但耗水量将有所增加.因此,培育适应气候变化的作物品种、发展节水农业和管理技术是应对气候变化的关键.     

Orally bioavailable highly potent HIV protease inhibitors against PI-resistant virus

Efforts directed to identifying potent HIV protease inhibitors (PI) have yielded a class of compounds that are not only very active against wild-type (NL4-3) HIV virus but also very potent against a panel of PI-resistant viral isolates. Chemistry and biology are described.

A fixation method for improved antibody penetration in electron microscopical immunoperoxidase studies.

A fixation method for electron microscopical immunoperoxidase staining has been developed, which (a) allows penetration of antibodies through cell membranes to intracellular antigen sites, (b) provides a reasonable cell preservation and (c) does not alter the antigenic structure in too great an extent. Penetration of the antibodies has been achieved by using saponin as a cell membrane attacking agent. The best results could be obtained after pretreatment of cell monolayers with a mixture of 0.05% saponin, 0.0125%-0.05% glutaraldehyde and 1% paraformaldehyde for 5 min at 4 degrees C, and postfixing them with the corresponding fixative without saponin for 45 min at 4 degrees C.
