植物提取液对黄瓜白粉病的抑菌活性筛选研究

首先通过叶圆盘法用29种植物提取液对黄瓜白粉病菌的抑菌效果进行了生物活性测定,初步筛选出槐、黄檀、南瓜和石楠等4种植物的提取液对黄瓜白粉病有较好的预防效果。然后对这4种植物提取液进行预防性和治疗性的室内盆栽药效试验,结果表明黄檀提取液对黄瓜白粉病的预防效果达到72.97%,治疗效果达到91.28%,并且在处理12 d后仍保持42.60%以上的防效。而槐提取液的预防效果和治疗效果分别为79.73%和79.19%,处理12 d后也保持在50%以上的防效。这两种植物提取液均极显著优于对照药剂三唑酮。     

Cu2+对中华倒刺鲃超氧化物歧化酶活性的影响

Cu2+是养殖水体的常见污染物,为了评估Cu2+对鱼类超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)的影响,将中华倒刺鲃暴露于含0.01～0.32 mg/L Cu2+的水体中饲养8 d,测定肌肉、血浆及肝脏中SOD活性的变化.实验结果显示,低浓度Cu2+(0.01 mg/L)对肌肉、血浆及肝脏的SOD有诱导作用,随着处理时间的延长而升高.但当浓度较高(0.04mg/L以上)时,SOD活性均呈现先诱导后抑制的趋势.Cu2+浓度越高,SOD活性上升越急剧,出现活性抑制的时间就越提前.此外,SOD在3种组织中的分布亦存在明显差异,肝脏的SOD活性最大.这些结果表明,肝脏SOD活性更宜作为Cu2+污染的生物标记.     

Energy balance for ethyl alcohol production from crops

Energy requirements to produce ethyl alcohol from three different crops in Brazil (sugarcane, cassava, and sweet sorghum) were calculated. Figures are presented for the agricultural and industrial phases. The industrial phase is always more energy-intensive, consuming from 60 to 75 percent of the total energy. Sugarcane is the more efficient crop for ethyl alcohol production, followed by sweet sorghum and cassava from a net energy viewpoint. The utilization of sweet sorghum stems might increase the total energy gain from this crop to almost the same level as sugarcane. Cassava has a lower energy gain at the present state of agriculture in Brazil.

Coelioscopic-assisted prefemoral ovariosalpingectomy in a d`Orbigny slider (Trachemys dorbigni) using a digital otoscope

The purpose of this study was to assess the unilateral prefemoral coelioscopic-assisted approach for ovariosalpingectomy in a d`Orbigny slider (Trachemys dorbigni) using a digital otoscope. Twenty healthy turtles were randomly assigned to one of two groups, for right (GR; n=10) or left (GL; n=10) prefemoral access, for coelioscopic-assisted ovariosalpingectomy. Anesthesia and surgery times, body weight, and ovary/oviduct weight data were recorded. Anesthesia and surgery times did not differ significantly between the groups. Wound closure was the most time-consuming surgical step. Ovary and body weights significantly affected the exposure time of the ipsilateral and contralateral ovaries, respectively. Two intraoperative complications were reported. All the animals recovered uneventfully. The digital otoscope can be safely and effectively used for coelioscopic-assisted single-access, unilateral prefemoral ovariosalpingectomy in d`Orbigny slider.     

黍族植物的叶片扩张和蒸腾作用对土壤水分亏缺的响应特征

Plant processes, such as leaf expansion, stomatal conductance and transpiration, are affected by soil water, particularly in water-stressed environments. Quantifying the effects of soil water on plant processes, especially leaf expansion and transpiration, could be useful for crop modeling. In order to quantify the leaf expansion and transpiration in response to soil water deficit in three millet species, common (Panicum miliaceum L.), pearl (Pennisetum glaucum L.) and foxtail (Setaria italica L.) millets, a pot experiment was performed at the Gorgan University of Agricultural Sciences and Natural Resources, Gorgan, Iran. The soil water status was characterized by the fraction of transpirable soil water (FTSW). Leaf area and transpiration were measured daily. Relative leaf area expansion (RL) and relative transpiration (RT) data were plotted against FTSW. Finally the FTSW thresholds for RL and RT were calculated using linear-plateau and logistic models. The results showed that the thresholds for RL and RT were 0.68 and 0.62, respectively, based on all measured data of the three millet species using the linear-plateau model, indicating that RL and RT were constant when FTSW decreased from 1 to the threshold point. Thereafter, until FTSW = 0, RL and RT declined linearly with a slope of 1.48 and 1.43, respectively. Although millet is cultivated as a resistant crop in arid, semiarid and marginal lands, it showed an early response to soil water deficit at high FTSW thresholds. As leaf expansion and transpiration can be considered morphological and physiological variables, respectively, the results in this study indicate that millet has strong morphological flexibility when faced with soil water deficit.     

西藏核桃休眠及萌芽特性研究

利用浓硫酸浸泡处理西藏核桃种子,通过种子吸水率、不同层积方法和内源抑制物对小白菜萌发影响试验等方面来研究西藏核桃的休眠及萌芽特性.结果表明:用浓硫酸处理种吸水率大于对照,种壳并不是引起休眠的主要原因,外壳、内种皮、种仁可能均含有抑制种子发芽物质.用浓硫酸浸泡90 min,变温层积萌动时间早,且萌动率高;低温层积160 d,再在22℃恒温条件下发芽率高,为68%.
