The Linnaean fish collection in the Zoological Museum of the University of Uppsala

Specimens of fishes preserved in the Zoological Museum, University of Uppsala, which are believed to have been examined by Linnaeus, are listed. Most of these were originally given to the University in several donations by benefactors of the Academy and were described by Linnaeus in dissertations defended by students. Some specimens, however, are believed to have originated from Linnaeus's own collection. Many of the specimens have type status and this is discussed together with notes on other surviving Linnaean fish specimens.     

刺激家兔颈交感神经对颈动脉窦反射的影响

在36只麻醉家兔观察了电刺激颈交感神经(CSN)对颈动脉窦压力感受器(CSB)活动的影响。所得结果如下:(1)电刺激 CSN 可使夹闭颈动脉引起的加压反射消失或倒转,△BP 从刺激前的 39.5±3.6mmHg 变为刺激时的-0.31±5.4mmHg(P<0.001)。(2)在电刺激CSN 时,静注新福林所诱发的颈动脉窦压力感受器-心率反射增强,表现为反射性心率减慢较刺激前更为明显。(3)在以50—200mmHg 的压力充胀两侧颈动脉窦的条件下,刺激 CSN 引起窦内压与平均动脉压的关系曲线下移,与刺激前曲线相比有明显差异(P<0.01)。(4)切断 CSN 后,动脉血压有所升高,提示 CSN 对 CSB 活动有紧张性调节作用。以上结果比较明确地表明家兔 CSN 对 CSB 活动有调节作用。此作用可能是 CSN 作用于窦壁平滑肌而间接引起的。     

Effect of CCC and glycine betaine on growth and growth-substance content of primary leaves of dwarf Frenchbean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

CCC (2-chloroethyltrimethylammonium chloride) decreased growth of primary leaves and stem internodes above the hypocotyl of dwarf French bean, probably because it decreased the amount of auxin produced by interaction between tryptophan and phenolic esters in the primary leaves. Growth of leaves was less affected than that of stems, and the gibberellin content of the primary leaves, previously shown to be associated with their expansion, was unaffected by CCC. CCC delayed death of the primary leaves, the breakdown of chlorophyll, and the increase in auxin associated with death of bean leaves. CCC had less effect on the growth of leaf discs, probably because they are not sites of growth-substance production. Glycine betaine, a quaternary ammonium compound similar to CCC, did not affect growth of bean plants, their metabolism of growth substances or the longevity of their primary leaves, but inhibited growth of leaf discs, probably directly.     

中国疫霉属异宗配合种的交配型

在疫霉属真菌中,很多种是重要的经济植物的病原菌,寄主范围广泛,包括乔木、灌木和各种农作物;为害性大,常带来严重的经济损失。本文主要研究疫霉异宗配合种的交配型。根据疫霉在纯培养和成对培养(dual culture)中产生有性器官的能力,疫霉属可分为同宗配合种和异宗配合种两大类群。异宗配合种的A~1交配型与同一种或其它种的A~2交配型进行成对培养时,可以形成有性器官。两个可亲合菌系配合而形成有性器官时,可能发生基因重组,其结果将使病原菌具有更强的生存能力、致病力以及更广泛的寄主范围。因此,研究疫霉两种不同的交配型的分布,不仅对认识病害的发生发展规律,进一步设计防治措施有着重要意义,而且对疫霉属的起源、演化和移栖也有着深远的理论意义。作者对收集到的7个异宗配合种:Phytophthora capsici,P.cinnamomi,P.citrophthora,P.colocasiae,P.infestans,P.nicotianae,P.palmivora的38个分离物进行了交配型的研究,测定工作使用澄清的Campbell蔬菜汁琼脂培养基(V8C),用于确定交配型的菌系有P.nicotianae var.parasitica A~1,P.nicotianae var.parasitica A~2,P.cinnamomi A~1,P.cinnamomi A~2,P.palmivora A~1,P.palmivora A~2.每个分离物分别与已知种的A~1和A~2两个菌系成对接种于同一V8C平板上,放入25℃温箱中培养,2周后在两个菌落的连线上检查有性器官的产生情况。实验结果表明,中国疫霉属异宗配合种的这些分离物的交配型与寄主或地理分布似无相关性,同一种植物上分离到的同种疫霉可以是A~1交配型,也可以为A~2交配型;同一地区可以出现两种交配型,不同地区又有相同的交配型。云南西双版纳橡胶园中的分离物(P.citrophthora,P.colocasiae,P.palmivora)都表现为中性。     

Net Accumulation of Minerals and Water and the Carbon Budget in an Expanding Leaf of Tomato

The changes in f. wt, d. wt, nitrogen, potassium, calcium, phosphorus,magnesium and carbon of the seventh leaf of a tomato plant weremeasured at seven occasions from 10 days to 30 days after leafemergence. Measurements of CO₂ exchange by the leaf during bothlight (70 W m^–2, 7 h) and dark (17 h) periods and thechange in carbon content over these two periods enabled a carbonbalance to be constructed on these seven occasions. Changesin the sugars and starch contents of the leaf over these twoperiods at each occasion were measured. With the exception of calcium the rates of accumulation of allsubstances increased to their maxima when the leaf was 22–24-days-old.Carbon fixation per unit f. wt. increased to a maximum whenthe leaf was 16-days-old. In a 10-day-old leaf the rate of carbonfixation was already four-fifths of maximum and one-quartermore than that at 30 days. The rate of night respiratory lossof carbon per unit fresh weight decreased as the leaf expanded.In a 10-day-old leaf, the amount of carbon lost by night respirationaccounted for one-quarter of that fixed in the same day. Thisfraction fell to one-tenth when the leaf was 22-days-old andremained constant thereafter. The amount of carbon being importedto the leaflets of a 10-day-old leaf was less than one-quarterof that accumulated in 1 day. Thus, the contribution of theimported carbon to the leaf growth up to this stage is relativelysmall. The transition of the seventh leaf from being a net importerto being a net exporter occurred when the leaf was 13-days-old. The sucrose content per unit f. wt was higher in the youngerthan in the older leaves and was not correlated to the transitionfrom net import to net export. The accumulation and breakdownof starch in a leaf were related not only to the growth of theleaf but also to the development of the whole plant.

夜蛾趋光特性的研究:复眼转化过程中的行为变异

影响蛾类趋光性和灯光诱蛾效果的因素很多。过去,国内外许多观察和实验都侧重在研究光源的辐射光谱和辐射强度以及气候条件的影响。至于蛾类的主要感光器官的适应状态怎样影响趋光性,却极少引起注意。 陈元光等(1963)曾经用电生理学的方法,测出粘虫蛾复眼的暗适应过程大约为30—45分钟。Agee(1972)用电生理方法研究复眼,发现美国棉铃虫复眼在暗适应中,达到最高灵敏度的时间为30分至285分,雌、雄的平均时间分别为88分和115分;美国烟青虫雌、雄蛾的平均时间分别为119分和121分。最近,李典谟等(1977)以复眼反射光的增强作为暗适应的指标,测出烟青虫蛾在暗室内暗适应时,复眼的转化速率很不一致。快的个体约经过1小时就达到最大反射值;慢的个体则需经过3小时,而绝大多数个体(79％)则在1—2(1/2)小时内。因此,他们推测在入夜后的一段时间里,田间昆虫的眼由昼眼转化为夜眼的情况是各不相同的,并且认为这种差异会影响成虫对于灯光发生不同的行为反应。棉铃虫(Heliothis armigera)蛾是灯光防治的主要对象之一,为了进一步探索这个问题,我们认为有必要检查一下在日夜交替的自然暗适应条件下其复眼状态究竟是否一致,复眼状态怎样影响着趋光性,以便深入地了解夜蛾类趋光性的控制因素。
