稻飞虱与纹枯病发生的关系

以往在田间调查中发现,凡稻飞虱发生重的田块,稻纹枯病的发生也相对较重。为明确飞虱是否能加重纹枯病的发生,1984年在土城乡大莒城村和蒋河村,作防治飞虱对纹枯病发生影响的试验观察。小区面积0.2～0.4亩,2～3次重复。为减少损失,供试田均于7月25日前后防治二代飞虱和纵卷叶螟,仅观察三代飞虱对纹枯病的影响,以不防治为对照。各试区从栽秧后不使用任何杀菌剂。大莒城村的供试品种为珍汕97A,三代防治区于8月14日每亩用200克20％杀虫脒+100克40％氧化乐果,兑水40公斤喷雾,8月23日     

Assessing Threats and Setting Conservation Priorities for Plant Species between Forest and Meadow Ecotone in Sanjiangyuan Nature Reserve, China

INTRODUCTIONA large number of nature resources have fosteredhuman beings in the world. However, during the lastfew decades these nature resources and biodiversitywere subjected to various anthropogenic pressuressuch as plantation, deforestation, construction ofhydro-electric project, overgrazing and exploitation andother developmental activities (He Youjun, et al, 2004b;Li Ang, et al, 2002; Swamy, et al, 2000). In order toprotect environment and biodiversity, we have to facethe challenge…     

Study on Impacts of pH Value on Paulownia Wood Color

INTRODUCTIONPaulownia is one of important species with fastgrowth and high yield oriented to industry uses inChina, paulownia wood is widely used in furniture-making, decorating materials, musical instrumentsmanufacture (Jiang Jianping 1990), etc. Brown orblack stain often appears on the surface of paulowniawood during processing and using. Discolorationseriously affects paulownia utilization, and it cancause huge loss due to low grade and price causedby stain (Cheng Junqing 1983a, 1983b…     

Genetic and Environmental Variations in Leaf Oils of Six Eucalypt Species

Chemical analyses were conducted with leave oils of Eucalyptus smithii, E. bakeri, E. polybractea, E. dives, E. radiata and E. macarthurii vvhich were introduced to southwestern China from Australia. It was found that the leaf oils of E. smithii, E. bakeri and E. polybractea contained 81-90% of 1 ,8-cineole, and E. dives and E. radiata contained higher a-phelandrene and piperitone. There vvere significant inter- and intraspeciflc variations in leaf oil yield, it also varied with seasons in vvhich leaves vvere harvested. The results suggested that more research should be undertaken to identify genotypes with high-yield of leaf oils. These species could be applied to develop community forestry.     

Nutrient Management for Eucalypt Plantations in South China

Eucalypts are very popular for revegetation in many parts of south China because of their capacity to tolerate degraded sites and unfertile soils,and their fast growth potential to coppice. This paper reviews a decade of field trials in china, undertaken as part of several bilateral researchprograms in plantation forestry, concerning the use of fertilizers, harvest residue management and inoculation with ectomycorrhizal fungi. One of the key questions addressed is whether the productivity of plantation eucalypts in south China can be increased to the world average by nutrient management across a rotation.     

Analysis of Original Causes of Reed Fires in Zhalong Nature Wetland Reserve in Heilongjiang Province

Zhalong Nature Reserve is located in the border areaof Qiqihaer City, Fuyu County, Lindian County andTailai County of Heilongjiang Province. The area ofthe reserve is 210 000 ha. The reserve is the firstnature reserve for protecting wetland and crane inChina. There were more than 300 red-crownedcranes here at the very most. Zhalong Nature Reserveis situated at the Songnen Plain, the lower stream ofthe Wuyuer River. It is the biggest nature reserve inChina that takes crane and wetland …     

Correlation between Chemical Structure and Biological Activity of Host-Selective Plant Pathogen Mycotoxins

Toxin, one of the most important factors of plant fungal disease, has attracted much attention of many academicians who have been studying pathogen mycotoxin in deep research. The paper summarized chemical structures of some host-selective plant pathogen mycotoxins discovered in recent years and the correlation between biological activity and chemical structure of toxin.     

Economic Benefit Analysis of Sedimentation Reduction by Forests in Miyun Watershed, Beijing

Soil erosion causes the loss of the fertilized surface soil. The eroded soil can be transported into rivers, lakes and reservoirs. The sedimentation raises the riverbed. It also reduces the flood discharge ability of rivers and the storage ability of reservoirs(Sun Lida, et al, 1995; Yu Zhimin, et al, 1999). Various researches proved that forests could reduce soil erosion. Forests in the watershed can decrease the sedimentation of the reservoir (Guo Zhongwei, et al, 1998; Qing Yongsheng, 2…     

Construction of cDNA Library from Populus euphratica

1 Introduction Populus euphratica is a salt tolerant tree species, which is mainly distributed in the desert regions in northwest China (Wei 1993). Moreover, it is the only large tree species, which can survive and develop into forest in these arid and saline-alkali areas. P. euphratica forest plays a very important role in restraining the expansion of desert, maintaining ecological environment in west China, protecting the biological diversity and raising the local people抯 living standard…     

Ultrastructural and Extracellular Protein Changes in Cell Suspension Cultures of Populus euphratica Associated with Low Temperature-induced Cold Acclimation

Populus euphratica Olive is the only tree species that can grow in the saline land and also survive cold winters in northwest China, and it plays a very important role in stabilizing the vulnerable ecosystem there. A cell suspension culture was initiated from callus derived from plantlets of Populus euphratica. Cold acclimation was induced (LT50 of-17.5 ℃) in cell suspension at 4-5 ℃ in the dark for 30 days and the freezing tolerance increased from LT50 of-12.5 ℃ in nonacclimated cells to LT50 of-17.5 ℃ in cold-acclimated cells. Microvacuolation, cytoplasmic augmentation and accumulation of starch granules were observed in cells that were cold-acclimated by exposure to low temperatures. Several qualitative and quantitative changes in proteins were noted during cold acclimation. Antibodies to carrot extracellular (apoplastic) 36 kD antifreeze protein did not cross react on immunoelectroblots with extracellular proteins in cell suspension culture medium of Populus euphratica, indicating no common epitopes in the carrot 36 kD antifreeze protein and P euphratica extracellular proteins. The relationship of these changes to cold acclimation in Populus euphratica cell cultures was discussed.
