不同叶色矢竹叶绿体结构和光系统特性差异

以矢竹(Pseudosasa japonica)、花叶矢竹(P. japonica f. akebonosuji)和曙筋矢竹(P. japonica f. akebono)为研究对象, 借助叶绿体超微结构和荧光动力学曲线的变化揭示不同叶色矢竹的光系统活性及光合特性差异。结果表明: 3个竹种的光合色素含量差异明显, 除花叶矢竹条纹叶白色部分叶绿体内无完整类囊体片层结构外, 花叶矢竹绿条纹和曙筋矢竹的基粒数明显少于矢竹, 叶绿体发育成熟度不一致; OJIP曲线及参数表明, 花叶矢竹条纹绿叶和曙筋矢竹光系统II (PSII)反应中心开放降低程度低于矢竹, 捕获能量用于电子传递的份额变小, PSII活性变弱; 而曙筋矢竹叶片P700至初级电子受体(Q_A)的电子传递链氧化还原平衡偏向于还原侧, 推测其光系统I (PSI)反应中心P700至PSII Q_A电子传递链受损。因此, PSII活性变化导致叶绿体发育不成熟, 可能是引起矢竹类叶色差异的直接原因。     

广竹的生物学特性及栽培技术研究

对广竹的生物学特性及栽培技术研究结果表明:广竹的出笋历期较短且非常集中,出笋高峰期集中在4月上旬,出笋数量占全期出笋总数的62.7%;幼竹高生长及枝条生长曲线均呈"S"形,遵循慢—快—慢的节律;此竹种属于混生竹,可移竹繁殖和埋鞭繁殖,前一方法的繁殖效果较好,成活率可达60%,而埋鞭繁殖效果相对较差,成活率只有38%,最佳繁殖时间宜在12月下旬至次年2月进行;根据其各生长阶段的生长规律、无性繁殖栽培技术以及生产实践,提出了主要栽培技术措施。     

中国竹亚科矢竹属一新种——中岩茶秆竹

描述了竹亚科矢竹属一新种——中岩茶秆竹（Pseudosasa zhongyanensis S.H.Chen,K.F.Huang et H.Z.Guo）。本种与茶秆竹（P.amabilis(McClure) Keng f.）相近似,但箨环具明显箨基残留物和木栓质隆起,高于秆环,箨鞘顶端具小型外翻箨耳,耳缘具皱曲繸毛,箨舌几无毛或有短柔毛,易于区别。     

Summer dietary compositions of sika deer on Yakushima Island,southern Japan

Summer food habits of Sika deer (Cervus nippon yakushimae) on Yakushima Island, southern Japan, were studied focusing in particular onPseudosasa owatarii, a dwarf bamboo native to the island. Fecal analyses showed that the food habit of the Sika deer on Yakushima island was plastic: the dietary composition was dominated by graminoids (ca. 90%), particularlyP. owatarii (50%–60%) in the bamboo grassland of theP. owatarii zone above the timber line, whereas leaves and non-leafy parts of woody plants were important in the crytomeria forest and evergreen broad-leaved forest below the timber line. The maximum culm age ofP. owatarii was 8.5 yr, but the majority of leaves (97.8%) were younger than 2.5 yr. Since the weight contribution of the leaves is great (27.7%) and the turnover rate is high, theP. owatarii grassland affords a good foraging place for the Sika deer on Yakushima Island.     

Stimulatory Effects of Pseudosasa japonica Leaves on Exercise Performance

The performance-enhancing effects of Pseudosasa japonica were investigated in mice using an adjustable-current water pool. Compared to the control group, a 1.5-fold increase in swimming time was observed in the mouse group administered an 80% ethanol extract (PJE) of the leaves of P. japonica. The blood lactate level, an important indicator of fatigue, was significantly lower (28%, P<0.05) in PJE group than in the control group. These results suggest that PJE possesses stimulatory effects that can enhance exercise endurance and reduce fatigue.     

近实心茶秆竹新变型——花叶近实心茶秆竹

在福建省古田县发现近实心茶秆竹新变型——花叶近实心茶秆竹。与原种不同之处在于叶片有一至多条宽窄不一的浅黄色至近白色彩条自基部至先端,黄绿相间,箨背及两侧边有浅褐色细纤毛。     

笔竹大小孢子发生及雌雄配子体发育研究

为探讨笔竹(Pseudosasa viridula)结实率低的原因,该文通过采用石蜡切片的方法结合显微技术对笔竹大小孢子发生及雌雄配子体的发育过程进行研究.结果表明:(1)笔竹的雄蕊多为3枚,极少有6枚,每枚花药具有4个花粉囊.(2)花药壁发育为基本型,由4层细胞构成,由外向内依次为表皮细胞、药室内壁细胞、中层细胞和绒...
