Summary Four cultivars ofTrifolium subterraneum were nodulated by five strains ofRhizobium leguminosarum; all combinations except one gave 100% nodulation. Rates of nodule formation and total nodule numbers were similar to those with an effectiveR. trifolii strain. The nodules were more commonly associated with lateral roots and were ineffective in nitrogen fixation. 相似文献

The majority of sheltered dogs are overlooked for purchase because they are considered undesirable by potential buyers. Many factors may determine a dog's appeal, although of interest here are the dog's behaviour and cage environment which can influence its desirability. People prefer dogs which are at the front rather than the back of the cage, quiet as opposed to barking, and alert rather than non-alert. Potential buyers also prefer dogs which are held in complex as opposed to barren environments. This study examined the behaviour of sheltered dogs in response to environmental change, to determine whether it influenced dog behaviour in ways that could be perceived as desirable to potential dog buyers, and/or had any effect upon the incidence of dogs purchased from the shelter. One hundred and twenty dogs sheltered by the Ulster Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals were studied over a 4-h period. The dogs' position in the cage, vocalisation, and activity were investigated in response to increased human social stimulation, moving the dog's bed to the front of the cage, or suspending a toy from the front of the dog's cage. Social stimulation resulted in dogs spending more time at the front of the enclosure, more time standing, and slightly more time barking. Moving the bed to the front of the cage encouraged dogs to this position, but did not influence activity or vocalisation. Suspending a toy at the front of the pen exerted no effect on dog behaviour, although its presence in the pen may help to promote more positive perceptions of dog desirability. The incidence of dogs purchased from the rescue shelter increased whenever the dogs' cages were fitted with a bed at the front of the pen, whenever the dogs were subjected to increased regular human contact, and whenever a toy was placed at the front of the enclosure. Findings highlight the important role that cage environment can play in shaping the behaviour of sheltered dogs and influencing whether or not an animal will become purchased. 相似文献

Introduction
Development of cell therapies for repairing the intervertebral disc is limited by the lack of a source of healthy human disc cells. Stem cells, particularly mesenchymal stem cells, are seen as a potential source but differentiation strategies are limited by the lack of specific markers that can distinguish disc cells from articular chondrocytes. 相似文献6.
Dogs have the ability to determine the direction of an odour trail left by a human. This study examined how much olfactory information from this trail is required by dogs to determine direction. Six dogs, able to determine direction, were tested on a 21 footstep trail laid on 21 individual carpet squares, one footstep per square, by the same individual wearing the same shoes. Dogs brought in at right-angles to the trail at its centre were able to correctly determine direction better than chance (P < 0.025). Dogs were unable to determine direction when the order of the footsteps was randomized by rearranging the order of the carpet squares. When the individual odour cue was removed, but ground disturbance left, dogs were unable to determine direction, indicating that it was the odour of the individual that was used to determine direction. In the final experiment the number of footsteps made available to the dog was reduced from 21 to 11 and then 9, 7, 5 and finally 3. Dogs were able to determine direction from 5 footsteps but not 3. It was calculated that it takes approximately 1-2 s for the odour information in footsteps to change to provide discernible information that can be used by dogs to determine direction. The process by which dogs may determine direction from odour cues is discussed. 相似文献

The olfactory abilities of great apes have been subject to little empirical investigation, save for a few observational reports.
This study, using an habituation/dishabituation task, provides experimental evidence for a core olfactory ability, namely,
olfactory discrimination, in the gorilla. In Experiment 1, six zoo-housed western lowland gorillas were individually presented
with the same odour on four trials, and with a novel odour on the fifth trial. Odours (almond and vanilla) were presented
on plastic balls, and behavioural responses of sniffing and chewing/licking the balls were recorded. A second experiment presented
the same odour on four trials and no odour on the fifth to examine whether any dishabituation was due to the presence of a
new odour or the absence of the familiar odour. Gorillas habituated their behaviour with repeated presentation of the same
odour, but dishabituated, i.e. increased sniffing and chewing/licking, when presented with the novel odour. No dishabituation
was noted when using water as the stimulus across all trials or when used as the novel odour. Overall, results show that gorillas
are able to discriminate between odours. 相似文献

Analysis of the extracellular polysaccharides of some related strains ofRhizobium trifolii indicated the presence of glucose, galactose, glucuronic acid, pyruvate and acetate. Small differences in composition between
strains were not related to the ability to nodulate or to the capacity of the symbiotic organisms to fix nitrogen.
