新疆人工灌溉绿洲的形成和发展演变

新疆人工灌溉绿洲形成的自然条件取决于水文、地貌、土壤和植被,并与社会经济因素和生产活动方式、生产发展水平及人口增长密切相关.塔里木盆地的古绿洲多分布在河流中下游三角洲上;老绿洲多在冲积扇中下部和冲积平原;新绿洲则多在老绿洲的外围和边缘.吐鲁番盆地在依靠火焰山泉水灌溉时,绿洲在火焰山以南;18世纪以后,绿洲主要分布在依靠坎儿井灌溉的地方;20世纪50年代后,实行渠、库、井联合灌溉,绿洲原地不断扩大.天山北麓平原,绿洲最初在交通和军事据点,后发展成一条河一小块绿洲.1949年后由于农垦事业的发展,才将小块绿洲扩大连接成绿洲带.伊犁河谷,起初依靠山溪小河灌溉,绿洲只是小块分布在伊宁和霍城.此后,引伊犁河水,开发的土地多在河谷平原的阶地上,整个伊犁河谷成为新疆最大的绿洲之一.     

内蒙古地区农业干旱预测方法研究

为了提高内蒙古农区干旱预测的准确率,本文针对农区干旱的特点,提出了春旱和夏秋旱的标准。并利用数理统计方法,分析得出前冬80cm地温的正负距平区域可预测来年春季干旱的程度;前冬160cm地温距平区域可预测来年夏秋季干旱趋势。同时指出夏季以前开始的ENSO年内蒙古中西部农区春季、夏秋季易出现中~大旱,但夏季以后开始的EN-SO年,夏秋季以轻旱~不旱为主;ENSO次年内蒙古农区夏秋季基本是轻旱或不旱年;而在太阳黑子数下降期,内蒙古农区夏秋季也以轻旱或不旱年居多。

Note: Molecular identification of three entomopathogenic nematodes from turkey by PCR-RFLP of the ITS regions

Molecular identification methods are widely used for the classification of organisms worldwide. Entomopathogenic nematodes are the most often isolated insect parasitic nematodes in the tropical and subtropical regions. In our investigation, PCR-RFLP (Polymerase Chain Reaction — Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism) of the ITS region (Internal Transcribed Spacer) on the ribosomal (r) DNA of three entomopathogenic nematodes isolated from Ankara, Turkey, was analyzed for identification. The ITS region of rDNA was amplified by PCR and then digested with the following nine restriction enzymes: Alu I, Dde I, Hae III, Hha I, Hind III, Hinf I, Hpa II, Rsa I and Sau 3AI. The amplified and restricted sequences of the ITS regions were separated by agarose gel electrophoresis and the RFLP patterns of these three species were shown in this study. According to our results, these species were identified asSteinernema feltiae, Steinernema carpocapsae andHeterorhabditis bacteriophora. http://www.phytoparasitica.org posting Nov. 4, 2005.     

牛GDF9和BMP15基因遗传变异与双胎性状的关系研究

以生长分化因子9(Growth differentiation factor 9,GDF9)基因和骨形态发生蛋白15(Bone morphogenet-ic protein 15,BMP15)基因作为牛双胎性状的候选基因,研究了它们在鲁西牛、秦川牛、南阳牛和中国荷斯坦牛4个品种中的遗传变异,并在鲁西牛群体中研究了其多态位点与双胎性状的关系。结果表明:在鲁西牛中GDF9基因的3′UTR发现缺失突变,而其它3个品种中没有发现该突变。对鲁西牛群体中该多态位点与单、双胎性状之间进行卡方显著性检验表明,单胎牛群体与双胎牛群体基因型分布有极显著的差异(P=0.006),双胎牛群体的B等位基因频率明显大于单胎牛群体。通过生物信息学分析表明,突变体mRNA的二级结构与野生型相比总自由能值差异不大,但突变体mRNA翻译起始位点的二级结构稳定性明显大于野生型。在鲁西牛、南阳牛和秦川牛的BMP15基因中发现编码区第759~762位有GAAA 4个碱基存在缺失突变,但没有检测到突变纯合个体,中国荷斯坦牛中没有检测到该突变。卡方显著性检验表明单胎牛群体和双胎牛群体在该位点基因型组成差异不显著(P=0.947)。

本文采用黄河中游多沙粗沙区具有代表性的17个雨量站的近40年旬降水量资料,分析了其降水量变化的特点和分布规律。结果表明:多沙粗沙区降水量年内分布集中,季节差异大;区间降水分配不均匀,且可分为三种明显不同的类型。各区降水量近几年来都呈现出明显的减少趋势。     

Molecular characterization of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Phoma tracheiphila</Emphasis>, causal agent of Mal secco disease of citrus,in Israel

Mal secco disease of citrus caused by Phoma tracheiphila is a devastating disease in the Mediterranean basin. Susceptible citrus species include lemon, citron, lime and others. Trees attacked by the fungus show characteristic symptoms; the smallest twigs die first, followed by the larger branches. Eventually, the whole tree is killed. The symptoms are clear in the orchards but by the time they are visible the disease is already well established. The need for a sensitive, reliable and rapid diagnostic method for the early identification of the fungus in trees and fruit exists. We have developed a PCR-based method for the identification of P. tracheiphila from plant tissues including fruit. Any such method must take into account the genetic variability in the pathogen population. Molecular methods were used to compare different isolates of P. tracheiphila. This study found no significant differences between different isolates from different citrus species from different parts of Israel.     

Roles of stolbur phytoplasma and <Emphasis Type="Italic">Reptalus panzeri</Emphasis> (Cixiinae,Auchenorrhyncha) in the epidemiology of Maize redness in Serbia

Maize redness (MR), a disease causing midrib, leaf and stalk reddening and abnormal ear development in maize, has been reported from Serbia, Romania and Bulgaria for 50 years. Recent epiphytotics reduced yields by 40%–90% in southern Banat, Serbia. MR was recently associated with the presence of the stolbur phytoplasma, although the epidemiology of the disease remained unknown. Diseased fields in southern Banat were surveyed for potential vectors of the phytoplasma during 2005 and 2006, and high populations of Reptalus panzeri were found. In affected fields, 20% of the R. panzeri individuals and 85% of symptomatic maize plants carried the stolbur phytoplasma. When stolbur phytoplasma-infected R. panzeri were introduced into insect-free mesh cages containing healthy maize plants, midrib and leaf reddening developed on 48% of plants and stolbur phytoplasma was detected in 90% of the symptomatic plants. No symptoms or phytoplasma-positive plants were found in cages without insects. These data indicate that MR symptoms are associated with the stolbur phytoplasma. Reptalus panzeri is both abundant in affected fields and can transmit the stolbur phytoplasma, indicating the insect is likely to be a major vector of MR.     

‘Candidatus Phytoplasma australiense’ is the phytoplasma associated with Australian grapevine yellows, papaya dieback and Phormium yellow leaf diseases

Sequence comparisons and phylogenetic analysis of the 16S rRNA genes and the 16S/23S spacer regions of the phytoplasmas associated with Australian grapevine yellows, papaya dieback and Phormium yellow leaf diseases revealed minimal nucleotide differences between them resulting in the formation of a monophyletic group. Therefore, along with Australian grapevine yellows, the phytoplasmas associated with Phormium yellow leaf and papaya dieback should also be considered as Candidatus Phytoplasma australiense.
