The linkage of the Phi, Pgd, Po2, S, H and halothane sensitivity loci was followed in a Belgian Landrace family, heterozygous for these systems over 6 generations. Recombination next to the S locus occurred mainly in pigs belonging to this particular family. From this investigation the position of the S locus is proved to be outwith the Phi-Pgd region, next to Phi . Therefore the gene sequence S - Phi - Hal -H- Po2 -Pgd is proposed. Higher recombination rates were observed in the female parental line of the multiheterozygous family when compared to the male parental line. Additional data from animals, unrelated to this strain, confirm the evidence of close linkage of the S system to the nearest marker loci. 相似文献

Various laboratory techniques have been utilized worldwide for measuring lead-210 in sub-recent deposits through its grand-daughter product polonium-210. Isotope dilution alpha spectrometry proved a suitable tool for absolute determination of lead-210 for the dating of aquatic deposits. Moreover, isotope dilution alpha spectrometry along with speciation experiments can be used to resolve depositional anomalies arising from supported lead-210/Ra-226 disequilibrium levels and unsupported lead-210 mobile fractions. Isotope dilution alpha spectrometry of sub-recent sediment and peat deposits has been critically evaluated for more than ten years. Our results show that type, size and composition of deposits analyzed as well as radiochemical procedures used, together with alpha counting techniques, are important factors influencing lead-210 determinations and tailing corrections using its granddaughter product polonium-210. Optimization of these parameters is of prime importance to achieve economic and accurate analyses, especially at low lead-210 concentrations and small sample sizes. 相似文献

Abundance and diversity of planktonic rotifers in the Po River 总被引:11,自引:8,他引:3
Zooplankton samples from the middle reach of the Po River were collected daily from 27 July to 24 August 1988 from a station located near Viadana. Changes in the biocoenosis structure were analyzed in relation to variations in flow rate. Rotifers accounted for more than 99% of the total zooplankton (protozoans excluded) in every sample. The dominant species were Brachionus calyciflorus, Brachionus bennini, Brachionus budapestinensis and Epiphanes macrourus. Under scanty flow conditions, the taxocoenosis showed marked stability. An increase in flow rate acts as a disturbance factor leading to a significant decrease in both total density and dominance. 相似文献

Abstract The distribution of macrophytic plant communities, defined by phytosociological numerical methods, in the irrigation system of the Lower river Po Plane was correlated with water characteristich. Water samples were collected periodically within phytocoena well-characterized from the phytosociological viewpoint. Nymphaeid-dominated communities (all. Nymphaeion) usually occur in deeper waters than elodeid- myriophyllid-, and ceratophyllid-dominated vegetation types (all. Potamogetonion). Hydrochemically, all of the studied waterbodies can be classified as rich in electrolytes and in bicarbonates. The distribution of phytocoena reflects a gradient in nutrient content: the Nymphoidetum peltatae characterizes waters moderately rich; the Myriophyllum spicatum community and the Trapetum natantis fairly rich; the Potamogetonetum pectinati and the Ceratophyllum demersum community very rich in nutrients. 相似文献

Cyclic AMP levels in rabbit carotid bodies incubated under control conditions, 100% O2- or 95% O2/5% CO2- equilibrated medium, are close to 1 pmol/mg wet tissue (range 0.4-2.43 pmol/mg). Isobutylmethylxanthine (0.5 mM) increases cyclic AMP levels by a factor of 14 and 8 in HEPES- and CO2/CH3O(-)-buffered medium, respectively. Forskolin (0.5-10 microM) applied during 30 min increases cyclic AMP levels in a dose-dependent manner. Incubation of carotid bodies at low O2 tensions resulted in an elevation of cyclic AMP levels both in the absence and in the presence of isobutymethylxanthine. In the latter conditions cyclic AMP increase was maximum at an O2 tension of 46 mm Hg and tended to decrease at extremely low PO2. In isobutylmethylxanthine-containing Ca2(+)-free medium, cyclic AMP increased linearly with decreasing PO2 from 66 to 13 mm Hg; the absolute cyclic AMP levels attained in Ca2(+)-free medium were smaller than those observed in Ca2(+)-containing medium at any PO2. The differences between Ca2(+)-free and Ca2(+)-containing media appear to be due to the action of released neurotransmitters in the latter conditions, because dopamine and norepinephrine, which are known to be released by hypoxia in a Ca2(+)-dependent manner, increase cyclic AMP in the carotid body. Low pH/high PCO2 and high [K+]e increase cyclic AMP levels only in Ca2(+)-containing medium. Forskolin potentiates the release of catecholamines induced by low PO2. These results suggest that cyclic AMP plays an important role in the modulation of the chemoreception process. 相似文献

Molecular outcomes led us to report the first occurrence of the invasive alien species Gracilaria vermiculophylla (Ohmi) Papenf. in the Mediterranean Sea. This species was recorded for the first time in the Po Delta lagoons in May and October 2008, probably introduced by the importation of the Manila clam Tapes philippinarum. At present, G. vermiculophylla is spread only near some clam‐farming areas, but its diffusion is expected to increase with the colonization of other lagoons where aquaculture is spread, as already observed for other alien species such as Agardhiella subulata and Solieria filiformis. The present study supplies further information on the morphology of this species, the ecological characteristics of the colonized areas, and the most probable introduction vector, confirming that the species spreading occurs in eutrophic and turbid coastal systems. 相似文献

Zooplankton was sampled during 39 cruises, from 1990 to 1993, at four fixed stations in the open northern Adriatic. Hydrographic
factors were important in determining the abundance of the smallest and largest components of the northern Adriatic food chain
during this period. Nauplii—especially those of the smallest size fractions—were the major mediators of material transfer
between primary producers and higher trophic levels. There was a significant difference in the vertical distribution of nauplii
size fractions between the eastern and western parts of the northern Adriatic, but not in their population density. According
to multiple correlation analyses, the abundance of naupliar size fractions in the western area correlated strongly with temperature
and with certain biological factors. This study confirms the important influence of the Po River and of mid-Adriatic waters
on the planktonic ecosystem of the northern Adriatic.

The present work reports a study of nine genetic polymorphic systems in the area of the Po Delta where malaria was endemic since the XIV century. Our data confirm some characteristics of this population already reported by other authors such as the high prevalence of thalassemia, the low prevalence of the rh (d) gene and the presence of G-6-PD deficiency. Among the other systems studied, i.e., AP, PGM1 ADA and AK, only AP frequencies of Po Delta population are significantly different from those of other continental Italian populations, the PC allele showing the lowest frequency so far observed. 相似文献

The response of aldose reductase (AR) to crush injury was studied in normal rat sciatic nerve. Enzyme activity and immunoreactivity of AR were determined at intervals of 1, 5, 14, 28, and 35 days after crush and correlated with histologic and immunocytochemical observations. During nerve degeneration in the distal segments of crushed nerves, a significant reduction in AR activity was detected. At 5 and 14 days, coincident with Schwann cell proliferation, enzyme activity decreased by nearly two- and fourfold, respectively. Although activity of AR increased by 28 days during nerve regeneration, it was not restored to normal levels at 35 days. Similar reductions were observed with the immunoblotting of the enzyme. Quantitative analysis of immunogold labelling on electron micrographs confirmed that proliferating as well as remyelinating Schwann cells contained reduced gold particle density compared to Schwann cells of noncrushed myelinated fibers. Immunoblots of P0, a marker for the degree of Schwann cell differentiation or myelination, showed that the temporal sequence of changes in P0 paralleled that of AR. Thus expression of AR is a function of differentiated or mature Schwann cells. The putative volume regulatory role of AR in Schwann cells may become superfluous during Wallerian degeneration. 相似文献

Recent ostracods (Crustacea,Ostracoda) found in lowland springs of the provinces of Piacenza and Parma (Northern Italy) 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
The “fontanili” are artificial aquatic ecosystems, typical of the lowland plains of Northern Italy, exploiting natural resurgences
of deep groundwater. These habitats are characterized by low variation in hydrologic, hydrochemical and thermal conditions
throughout the year. Proper management is required to prevent the spring clogging by biomass accumulation. In spite of their
importance as refugia for endangered species, many springs were completely abandoned in the last years and several of them
will disappear. We report the results of a study carried out in 2001 on 31 springs of the provinces of Piacenza and Parma,
distributed in seven areas defined on hydrological and geological considerations. Physical and chemical variables and parameters
of waters were measured and ostracod samples were collected. Most of the springs showed high nitrate concentration, due to
a diffuse pollution of agricultural origin. Twelve ostracod species in four families were identified. Ostracod valves were
analysed by scanning electron microscopy. Cypria ophtalmica was found in all the springs; other relatively common species were Cyclocypris laevis,Notodromas persica, and Prionocypris zenkeri.The maximum number of species per site was four. Cypridopsis vidua,P. zenkeri, and N. persicashowed a very localized distribution in the study area. The ostracod fauna of the “fontanili” was compared to other species
assemblages found in spring habitats and to the available information on recent freshwater ostracods reported for Italy. 相似文献
