土壤中含EB病毒诱导物的检测

从广西壮族自治区梧州市、苍梧县、罗城县和北京市收集的土壤标本中发现有EB病毒诱导物。梧州市和苍梧县沿公路和江河两旁桐油树下的土壤标本,对EB病毒早期抗原诱导的阳性率为40～58％。在其他大戟科植物下的土壤标本中,也发现有EB病毒诱导物。对桐油树下土壤中EB病毒诱导物与鼻咽癌发生的可能关系进行了讨论。     

Visualisation and graph-theoretic analysis of a large-scale protein structural interactome

Background  

Large-scale protein interaction maps provide a new, global perspective with which to analyse protein function. PSIMAP, the Protein Structural Interactome Map, is a database of all the structurally observed interactions between superfamilies of protein domains with known three-dimensional structure in the PDB. PSIMAP incorporates both functional and evolutionary information into a single network.     

Reduced byssal thread production and movement by the intertidal mussel<Emphasis Type="Italic"> Hormomya mutabilis</Emphasis> in response to effluent from predators

Laboratory experiments were carried out to investigate byssal thread production by the intertidal mytilid mussel Hormomya mutabilis in response to effluent from the predatory crab Eriphia smithii and the starfish Coscinasterias acutispina. During the early period of the experiment, large H. mutabilis exposed to crab effluent produced a significantly smaller number of functional byssal threads than mussels in crab-free water. No significant difference in the diameter of threads produced in the two treatments was detected. The number of functional byssal threads produced by small H. mutabilis exposed to crab effluent did not differ significantly from that of mussels in crab-free water. However, small H. mutabilis exposed to crab effluent tended to discard fewer byssal bundles, that is, they shifted their attaching sites less frequently than similar mussels in crab-free water. In the presence of waterborne cues from the crab, H. mutabilis tended to reduce both the secretion of byssal threads and movement across the substratum. No significant differences in behaviour were observed between large mussels exposed to effluent from the starfish and those unexposed. The adaptive significance of the responses shown by H. mutabilis is discussed in terms of protection against predators differing in foraging behaviour. Electronic Publication     

油菜(Brassica napus L)收获指数的变异

本文首次采用田间试验的方法对国内油菜收获指数的变异进行了研究．结果表明不同油菜品种的收获指数存在变异,其变异规律大致是：１）中熟品种的收获指数高于早熟品种及晚熟品种;２）中长角果的品种较长角品种具有更高的收获指数;３）高产的新品种具有较高的收获指数;４）油菜粒壳比,角杆比及千粒重与收获指数呈正相关,杆重与收获指数呈负相关．
