Resolving the Conflicts Between Biodiversity Conservation and Socioeconomic Development in China: Fuzzy Clustering Approach

Resolving the conflicts between biodiversity conservation and socioeconomic development is a global pursuit for the long-run prospects of the human species. Based on Wenchuan County, a typical county in southwestern China, a group of 20 indicators quantifying regional biodiversity and socioeconomic development was established to classify and evaluate the county area spatially. A fuzzy c-means clustering (FCM) algorithm was used as the classification method. Three indices including BD, DL and DR characterizing the value of biodiversity, the level and rate of socioeconomic development of the delineated regions were formulated. The results indicated that Wenchuan County was optimally classified into 4 types of regions (region I to IV). The area percentages of the regions vary widely from 4.3 to 65.7%. The sequences of the regions on biodiversity, socioeconomic development level, and socioeconomic development rate were, respectively, IV > II > III > I, I > III > II > IV and III >I >II >IV. The spatial strategy on coordinating biodiversity conservation and regional development is to develop mainly from the east(I, II, III) and to conserve mainly in the west(IV). Eco-industry, such as eco-tourism and eco-agriculture, need to be emphasized in the process of regional development. The quantitative methods used here may have a wide applicability.

番木瓜果糖-2,6-二磷酸酶CpF2KP基因克隆和蛋白表达纯化

番木瓜是岭南四大名果之一,在我国东南部地区广泛种植,因其具有食用和药用双重价值,因此深受人们的青睐。果糖-6-磷酸,2-激酶/果糖-2,6-二磷酸酯酶(fructose-6-phosphate,2-kinase/fructose-2,6-bisphosphatase,F2KP)是一个独特的双功能酶,具有激酶功能域和酯酶功能域,能催化生物体内糖代谢的重要调节物果糖-2,6-二磷酸(Fru-2,6-P_(2))的合成和降解。为了研究番木瓜中编码该酶的基因CpF2KP的功能,得到目的蛋白尤为重要。本研究从番木瓜基因组中提取到CpF2KP基因的编码序列(coding sequence,CDS)序列,该基因CDS全长2274 bp。将该基因CDS全长扩增之后选用pGEX-4T-1载体进行原核表达。对载体pGEX-4T-1用EcoRⅠ和BamHⅠ进行双酶切,利用基因重组的方式将扩增序列构建到原核表达载体上。经过诱导条件探索,SDS-PAGE结果显示GST-CpF2KP重组蛋白的大小约为110 kDa,诱导CpF2KP蛋白表达的最适条件为:异丙基β-D-硫代半乳糖苷(isopropyl beta-D-thiogalactopyranoside,IPTG)浓度为0.5 mmol/L,温度28℃。对诱导后的CpF2KP蛋白进行纯化,得到了纯化的单一目的蛋白。此外,检测了该基因的组织表达特性发现该基因在种子中表达量最高,在果肉中表达量最低。该研究为进一步深入揭示番木瓜CpF2KP蛋白的功能及研究该基因参与的生物学过程提供了重要基础。

本文研究了中国黄土地层中有确切层位的哺乳动物化石记录,并进行了生物地层学与磁性地层学对比,将黄土地层中的动物化石归纳成如下哺乳动物群：早更新世（2．50─0．73Ma）：午城动物群（2．50─1．20Ma）、公王岭动物群（1．20─1．10Ma）和阳郭动物群（1．10─0．90Ma）、中更新世（0．73─0．13Ma）：陈家窝子动物群（0．73─0．40Ma）;晚更新世（0．13─0．01Ma）：柔远─靖远动物群（0．13─0．01Ma）;全新世（0．01Ma─Rec）:半坡动物群。结果表明：早更新世许多森林习性的化石动物虽然反映出气候较第三纪的寒冷,但比后期温暖湿润。中更新世出现了较多的草原、干旱草原习性的动物,气候更为寒冷干旱,森林逐渐减少或消失,草原或干旱草原得到发展;晚更新世出现的沙鼠、跳鼠等动物,表明气候更加寒冷、干旱,部分地区甚至沙化。     

Inheritance of gusA and neo genes in transgenic rice

Inheritance of foreign genes neo and gusA in rice (Oryza sativa L. cv. IR54 and Radon) has been investigated in three different primary (T₀) transformants and their progeny plants. T₀ plants were obtained by co-transforming protoplasts from two different rice suspension cultures with the neomycin phosphotransferase II gene [neo or aph (3) II] and the -glucuronidase gene (uidA or gusA) residing on separate chimeric plasmid constructs. The suspension cultures were derived from callus of immature embryos of indica variety IR54 and japonica variety Radon. One transgenic line of Radon (AR2) contained neo driven by the CaMV 35S promoter and gusA driven by the rice actin promoter. A second Radon line (R3) contained neo driven by the CaMV 35S promoter and gusA driven by a promoter of the rice tungro bacilliform virus. The third transgenic line, IR54-1, contained neo driven by the CaMV 35S promoter and gusA driven by the CaMV 35S.Inheritance of the transgenes in progeny of the transgenic rice was investigated by Southern blot analysis and enzyme assays. Southern blot analysis of genomic DNA showed that, regardless of copy numbers of the transgenes in the plant genome and the fact that the two transgenes resided on two different plasmids before transformation, the introduced gusA and neo genes were stably transmitted from one generation to another and co-inherited together in transgenic rice progeny plants derived from self-pollination. Analysis of GUS and NPT II activities in T₁ to T₂ plants provided evidence that inheritance of the gusA and neo genes was in a Mendelian fashion in one plant line (AR2), and in an irregular fashion in the two other plant lines (R3 and IR54-1). Homozygous progeny plants expressing the gusA and neo genes were obtained in the T₂ generation of AR2, but the homozygous state was not found in the other two lines of transgenic rice.
