Mutagenic effectiveness and efficiency of EMS,DES and gamma-rays in rice

Summary Data on chlorophyll mutation frequency after treatment with EMS, DES and gamma-rays and sequential administration of gamma-rays and the two alkylating agents in three varieties of rice have been used to work out quantitatively the effectiveness and efficiency of each mutagen and combination treatment. For effectiveness, the order is EMS > DES and for efficiency it is EMS > DES > gamma-rays. In some sequential treatments (Gamma-rays + DES in IR8 and Basmati; DES + gamma-rays in IR8 and Jhona; Gamma-rays + EMS in IR8 and Basmati; and EMS + gamma-rays in IR8, Jhona and Basmati) mutation frequency is more than additive (synergistic) but these treatments are decisively less efficient because of their relatively high injurious effects in the M₁. generation. EMS induces more albinas than gamma-rays do. The mutational spectrum patterns induced by gamma-rays and DES are alike. In general, combination treatments tend to increase the frequency of albinas over other types of chlorophyll mutants.     

寡聚脱氧核苷酸d(G-C)_3的激光喇曼谱及其分析

用改进的固相磷酰三酯法合成了oligo-d(G-C)_3。以氩离子激光为激发光源,波长488nm.,在室温条件下,分别测定了纯化后的oligo-d(G-C)_3和其组分单体5’-dGMP和5’-dCMP的激光喇曼谱。观察到被测定的物质在300-2500cm~(-1)频率区间,各自都有其特征的谱形和喇曼峰。5’-dGMP和5’-dCMP谱中大多数特征峰在寡聚体的谱中消失,而在oligo-d(G-C)_3谱中出现了几处新的喇曼峰。经查证,峰832,851和899cm~(-1)系糖-磷酸主链的特征喇曼峰,另外几处峰与DNA的构象有关。实验结果表明oligo-d(G-C)_3在水溶液中(室温)主要以B-构象存在。     

Shared ancestral polymorphisms and chromosomal rearrangements as potential drivers of local adaptation in a marine fish

Gene flow has tremendous importance for local adaptation, by influencing the fate of de novo mutations, maintaining standing genetic variation and driving adaptive introgression. Furthermore, structural variation as chromosomal rearrangements may facilitate adaptation despite high gene flow. However, our understanding of the evolutionary mechanisms impending or favouring local adaptation in the presence of gene flow is still limited to a restricted number of study systems. In this study, we examined how demographic history, shared ancestral polymorphism, and gene flow among glacial lineages contribute to local adaptation to sea conditions in a marine fish, the capelin (Mallotus villosus). We first assembled a 490‐Mbp draft genome of M. villosus to map our RAD sequence reads. Then, we used a large data set of genome‐wide single nucleotide polymorphisms (25,904 filtered SNPs) genotyped in 1,310 individuals collected from 31 spawning sites in the northwest Atlantic. We reconstructed the history of divergence among three glacial lineages and showed that they probably diverged from 3.8 to 1.8 million years ago and experienced secondary contacts. Within each lineage, our analyses provided evidence for large N_e and high gene flow among spawning sites. Within the Northwest Atlantic lineage, we detected a polymorphic chromosomal rearrangement leading to the occurrence of three haplogroups. Genotype–environment associations revealed molecular signatures of local adaptation to environmental conditions prevailing at spawning sites. Our study also suggests that both shared polymorphisms among lineages, resulting from standing genetic variation or introgression, and chromosomal rearrangements may contribute to local adaptation in the presence of high gene flow.     

The Interference of Flexible Working Times with the Circadian Temperature Rhythm—a Predictor of Impairment to Health and Well‐Being?

In order to analyze whether impairments to health and well‐being under flexible working hours can be predicted from specific characteristics of the work schedules, periodic components in flexible working hours and their interference with the circadian temperature rhythm were analyzed applying univariate and bivariate spectrum analyses to both time series. The resulting indicators of spectral power and phase shift of these components were then related to reported health impairments using regression analysis. The results show that a suppression of both the 24 and the 168 h components in the work schedules (i.e., a lack of periodicity) can be used to predict reported health impairments, and that if there are relatively strong 24 and 168 h components left in the work schedules, their phase difference with the temperature rhythm (as an indicator of the interference between working time and the circadian rhythm) further predicts impairment. The results indicate that the periodicity of working hours and the amount of (circadian) desynchronization induced by flexible work schedules can be used for predicting the impairing effects of flexible work schedules on health and well‐being. The results can thus be used for evaluating and designing flexible shift rosters.

目的:探讨宝石能谱CT用于冠状动脉支架内成像质量评估的应用价值。方法:回顾分析56例冠状动脉支架植入后患者,按照支架厚度及直径分成四组。采用宝石能谱CT对冠状动脉成像及同时进行冠状动脉造影患者的影像学资料,通过分析宝石能谱CT的冠状动脉的成像质量,与冠状动脉造影进行对比,得出宝石能谱CT用于冠状动脉介入治疗术后支架内成像质量评估的价值。结果:宝石能谱CT显示支架内再狭窄的敏感度为100%,特异度为98.6%,阴性预测值为100%。直径≥3 mm的支架内成像质量优于直径3 mm的支架。但支架直径和厚度对宝石能谱CT支架内成像质量的可评估率没有差异。结论:宝石能谱CT均能提供优秀的冠状动脉支架内成像质量,采用宝石能谱CT替代冠状动脉造影术可对冠脉支架术后支架内影像进行评估。
