宽叶吊兰叶绿素生物合成的昼夜节律变化

在被子植物中,从谷氨酰-tRNA到叶绿素的生物合成是由许多酶催化的级联反应,其中间代谢产物具有较强的光反应活性和细胞毒性,因此这一过程在细胞内受到严格的调控。本研究通过检测宽叶吊兰叶片叶绿素生物合成途径的14种中间产物含量随昼夜节律的变化,探讨昼夜节律对宽叶吊兰叶绿素生物合成的影响。结果表明,中间产物ALA(δ-氨基乙酰丙酸)、PBG(胆色素原)、ProtoⅨ(原卟啉Ⅸ)、Heme(血红素)、Mg-ProtoⅨ(镁原卟啉Ⅸ)、Chlide a(叶绿素酸酯a)、Chlide b(叶绿素酸酯b)、Chl a(叶绿素a)、Chl b(叶绿素b)受光诱导,而UrogenⅢ(尿卟啉Ⅲ)、CoprogenⅢ(粪卟啉Ⅲ)和Pchlide(原叶绿素酸脂)受黑暗诱导,尤其是Pchlide在黑暗中的积累量显著增加;Mpe(镁原卟啉Ⅸ单甲酯)和Mpde(镁原卟啉Ⅸ二酯)具有2个积累峰值,分别出现在中午12∶00和夜间24∶00。说明叶绿素生物合成受昼夜节律的调控,但其中间代谢产物含量的变化规律与昼夜节律并不完全一致。     

不同碳氮比对薄盖灵芝液体培养的影响

采取液体深层发酵的方法 ,研究了不同碳氮比对薄盖灵芝 [Ganodermacapense (Lloyd)Teng]液体培养的影响。结果表明 ,在氮量固定的情况下 ,随碳量的增加 ,薄盖灵芝菌丝体干重逐渐增大 ,各处理发酵液的pH值呈“上升→下降→平稳”的变化趋势 ;当碳量固定时 ,各处理的pH值变化基本呈“双峰”型。不同碳氮比对薄盖灵芝液体发酵影响较大 ,通过对菌丝生长量、pH值的测定以及对发酵液及菌球培养性状的观察 ,认为碳氮比在 2 0∶1～ 4 0∶1(C3～C7)对薄盖灵芝的液体发酵均较适宜。其中以 30∶1(C5 )为最适宜 ,在此条件下 ,终止发酵的pH值为 3 4 ,菌球数量虽为 113个 10mL发酵液 ,但菌丝体干重为 6 83 4mg dL。发酵液澄清度高 ,呈真溶液状 ,菌球大小均匀。     

Species‐specific foraging strategies and segregation mechanisms of sympatric Antarctic fulmarine petrels throughout the annual cycle

Determining the year‐round distribution and behaviour of birds is necessary for a better understanding of their ecology and foraging strategies. Petrels form an important component of the high‐latitude seabird assemblages in terms of species and individuals. The distribution and foraging ecology of three sympatric fulmarine petrels (Southern Fulmar Fulmarus glacialoides, Cape Petrel Daption capense and Snow Petrel Pagodroma nivea) were studied at Adélie Land, East Antarctica, by combining information from miniaturized saltwater immersion geolocators and stable isotopes from feathers. During the breeding season at a large spatial scale (c. 200 km), the three species overlapped in their foraging areas located in the vicinity of the colonies but were segregated by their diet and trophic level, as indicated by the different chick δ¹⁵N values that increased in the order Cape Petrel < Southern Fulmar < Snow Petrel. During the non‐breeding season, the three fulmarines showed species‐specific migration strategies along a wide latitudinal gradient. Snow Petrels largely remained in ice‐associated Antarctic waters, Southern Fulmars targeted primarily the sub‐Antarctic zone and Cape Petrels migrated further north. Overall, birds spent less time in flight during the non‐breeding period than during the breeding season, with the highest percentage of time spent sitting on the water occurring during the breeding season and at the beginning of the non‐breeding period before migration. This activity pattern, together with the δ¹³C values of most feathers, strongly suggests that moult of the three fulmarine petrels occurred at that time in the very productive high Antarctic waters, where birds fed on a combination of crustaceans and fish. The study highlights different segregating mechanisms that allow the coexistence of closely related species, specifically, prey partitioning during the breeding season and spatial segregation at sea during the non‐breeding season.
