二花脸仔猪在运输过程中的行为特征和血浆皮质醇水平的变化

本试验采用实时跟踪摄像和颈静脉血管瘘连续采样,观察二花脸断奶仔猪在2h运输过程中的行为表现,并测定血浆皮质醇水平的动态变化。结果表明:运输前期(出发后15min)仔猪的探究行为和异常行为发生次数较多且持续时间较长,运输中期(出发后60~75min)此类行为显著减少(P<0.05),而到运输后期(最后15min)几乎观察不到此类行为;仔猪的躺卧行为在运输前期和中期发生次数较少,持续时间较短,而在运输后期仔猪大部分时间都处于躺卧状态(P<0.05);运输至中期仔猪大部分时间处于站立状态,而到运输后期站立行为显著减少(P<0.05);仔猪蹲坐行为发生的次数和持续时间在运输的前中后无显著差异(P>0.05)。仔猪上车后皮质醇水平迅速上升(P<0.05),出发15min升至峰值,且保持该高水平直到2h运输结束,下车后15min皮质醇水平迅速下降至上车前15min的基础水平。     

公鸡斗架及其进化稳定策略

公鸡斗架是常见的一种动物争斗行为,作者通过对公鸡斗架行为的根源、方式和结局的分析,说明公鸡斗架行为是由基因控制的,是自然选择的结果,斗架的本质是繁殖斗争,目的是取得与更多异性交配的机会,留下更多的后代.公鸡斗架的节制性符合进化稳定性策略,在进化上具有重要意义.     

Comparison ofPotato Virus Y andPlum Pox Virus transmission by two aphid species in relation to their probing behavior

Two different aphid species,Myzus persicae (Sulzer) andHyalopterus pruni (Geoffroy) (Homoptera: Aphididae), were used to analyze their ability to transmit two different potyviruses,Potato virus Y (PVY) andPlum pox virus (PPV), to pepper (Capsicum annuum) andNicotiana benthamiana plants, respectively. In parallel experiments,M. persicae consistently transmitted both viruses with high efficiency, whereasH. pruni always failed to transmit either virus. This is in contrast to previous reports describingH. pruni as a vector of these potyviruses. Different aphid probing behavior among individual aphids of each species was obtained in electrical penetration graph (EPG) experiments performed on pepper plants. This suggested thatH. pruni did not transmit these potyviruses due to behavioral differences during probing that impeded virus acquisition and/or inoculation. It was found thatM. persicae usually makes its first probe within the first 2 min, whereasH. pruni individuals remained for more than 10 min on the plant before starting to probe. Furthermore,M. persicae individuals displayed their first intracellular puncture during the first minute of probing whereasH. pruni needed ∼ 15 min to penetrate the cell plasmalemma with their stylets. In addition, intracellular stylet punctures occurred very frequently forM. persicae but was a rare event, never exceeding a single one, forH. pruni. The relevance of these findings for the epidemiological spread of potyviruses by different aphid species is discussed. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting May 14, 2006.     

笼养东方白鹳越冬行为的研究

采用瞬时扫描法研究了东方白鹳（Cionia boyciana）越冬行为的活动节律和时间分配。结果表明：笼养东方白鹳在越冬期其活动有一定的节律性；越冬期的主要行为时间分配比例分别为静栖行为59．25％、避风行为11．17％、觅食行为6．41％、瞭望行为5．56％、理羽行为5．39％、游走行为5.14％；成年个体与幼雏在越冬行为时间分配上表现出了很大的差异；两性间越冬行为时间分配的差异不大；不同的温度、天气条件，对笼养东方白鹳越冬行为有影响。经观察发现：东方白鹳在高纬度北方地区越冬，对北方寒冷的天气有一系列的适应性，能在北方室外安全过冬。     

环境因素对丹顶鹤越冬行为的影响

丹顶鹤在盐城越冬期间各种环境因素对其行为都将产生一定的影响,对此我们进行了观察记录。该项工作主要用8×40、10×50双筒和20倍单筒望远镜实地观察、照相机摄影等直接记录丹顶鹤的各种行为；种群数量计算为直接计数法；气候因子则根据各级气象部门的预报结果,结合观察点温度计等手段测算。结果表明丹顶鹤越冬期间,气候因子的变化是对其行为产生直接影响的主要因素,温度、雨、雾、雪、风等发生大幅度变化时,都将导致越冬期丹顶鹤的行为发生相应的适应性变化,对迁徙行为的影响则更为明显。而食物和水源则通过气候因子的变化和安全度的影响再次反应到丹顶鹤的越冬行为中来。本文最后提出了减轻灾害性天气对丹顶鹤越冬行为的影响建议。     

丙谷胺对产蛋鸡摄食行为及内分泌的影响

选用35周龄伊莎蛋鸡8只,分别安装慢性颈静脉血管插管.实验采用自身对照法,对照期饲喂基础日粮,丙谷胺期在喂料前填喂丙谷胺.应用摄食行为计算机监测系统(FIDAS系统)记录各个实验期产蛋鸡喂料后4h内的采食行为数据,并测定有关血液生化指标.结果显示,实验期(填喂丙谷胺后)与对照期相比较,产蛋鸡午前(8:00～12:00)与午后(13:00～17:00)4 h内摄食量分别增加27.69%与30.41%(P＜0.05),摄食时间分别降低15.67%与3.75%,摄食餐数分别增加12.32%与27.2%(P＜0.05);血糖水平分别降低5.44%与18.03%(P＜0.01),瘦素水平分别升高2.59%与7.19%,胰岛素水平分别升高33.09%(P＜0.05)与24.5%(P＜0.05).提示丙谷胺能够促进蛋鸡摄食,并影响有关内分泌激素的水平.     

酸奶消费者购买行为的实证研究

以在校大学生问卷调查为例,应用联合分析法,运用极差分析、方差分析的统计学方法得出结论:价格是影响消费者酸奶购买行为的最显著因素;品牌和包装类型对酸奶购买的影响不相上下;净含量和保质期对消费者酸奶购买影响较小。乳品企业应针对不同的消费群体开发相应的产品、制定不同的市场营销策略。     

Recreational tree-climbing programs in a rural Japanese community forest: Social impacts and “fun factors”

We examined whether recreational tree climbing (TC) activities would have positive social impacts and rejuvenate an outdoor activity center and surrounding community forest in central Japan. Our case study comprised 3800 adults and children participating in TC activities at the Jyokoji Outdoor Activity Center (JOAC) in Seto, Japan. We focused on 1393 adult participants whom we considered to be the decision makers regarding family recreation, and we explored both the social impacts of TC and various factors that contributed to and distracted from the overall experience. Qualitative and quantitative data indicated that elements such as age, gender, tree preferences, tree appreciation, tree education, and technical instruction influenced the enjoyment of recreational TC and the positive effects on tree climbers. Overall, the climbing program had positive social impacts for the community forest and contributed to local conservation initiatives. Our case study suggests that other areas can benefit from incorporating TC programs into community forest planning to complement aesthetic, ecological, and restoration benefits and provide a new venue for recreation and conservation awareness.
