四种实验动物脏器质量系数的测定

对鲤鱼、蟾蜍、家鸡、家兔四种动物主要内脏器官进行称量并对脏器系数进行测定,对同类动物不同性别间脏器系数的差异和各脏器系数之间的大小进行了比较。结果表明,鲤鱼、蟾蜍和家兔各脏器质量,雌雄间无明显差异,但家鸡部分脏器质量雌雄间有明显差异。家鸡的脏器系数(肝脏除外),雄性明显高于雌性(P<0.05),鲤鱼和蟾蜍的肾脏系数性别差异显著(P<0.05)。四种动物的心脏系数:家鸡>蟾蜍>家兔>鲤鱼;肝脏系数:家兔>蟾蜍>家鸡;肺脏系数:蟾蜍>家鸡>家兔;脾脏系数:鲤鱼>家鸡>家兔>蟾蜍;肾脏系数:家鸡>家兔>蟾蜍>鲤鱼。由此可见,动物的脏器系数的大小与其进化水平有一定的相关性。     

广东部分地区中小型猪场猪伪狂犬病野毒感染的血清学调查

采用阻断ELISA法,对广东省9个地区经猪伪狂犬基因缺失苗免疫的中小型猪场2005年-2006上半年送检的375份血清进行猪伪狂犬病野毒感染的血清学检测。结果表明,有9个地区猪场血清呈阳性,其中阳性血清174份,平均阳性率为46.4%,最高阳性率达65.0%,提示该地区中小型猪场有猪伪狂犬病野毒感染。     

野生鸟类高致病性禽流感抗体水平检测

高致病性禽流感对禽类及人类危害十分严重.高致病性禽流感流行病学特点之一是随野生鸟类的迁徙,该病在全球广泛扩散和蔓延.野生鸟类在紧急免疫后的血清抗体水平直接关系到疫情的控制、养禽业的发展以及人类的健康.我国GB/T 18936高致病性禽流感诊断技术对火鸡、鸭、鹅(包括野生鸟类)等禽类接种禽流感疫苗免疫效力评价缺乏足够的血清学依据,国际国内对野生鸟类血清抗体水平检测资料比较欠缺.因此对野生鸟类高致病性禽流感血清抗体水平进行检测,就显得十分重要和必要.     

中国地毯草野生种质资源耐旱性变异的初步研究

对我国不同来源地毯草野生种质资源抗旱性的研究结果表明,各供试地毯草的抗旱性与生境有着直接的关系,基本表现为分布于山坡地和路边等旱生环境中的地毯草,其抗旱性也相对较好,而那些在综合评判中表现为抗旱性较差的地毯草,大多是从河滩等湿生环境中采集到的材料。通过对土壤含水量、水分饱和亏缺指数、叶片保水力、游离脯氨酸含量和可溶性糖等与草坪抗旱有关的几个生理生化指标值的试验分析以及综合评判,将饶平地毯草初步确定为耐旱生态型。该生态型具有植株比较低矮,匍匐茎长短轴的差异不明显,叶片相对较小,匍匐茎生长速度和分蘖能力中等特点。

Veterinary cancer registries in companion animal cancer: a review

Current and prior veterinary cancer registries are few in number and scattered. Different inclusion criteria, dissimilar collection methods and variable reference population estimation methods pose obstacles in the comparisons between veterinary and human cancer registries. Veterinary cancer registries have yielded information on the risk and incidence of different cancer types in certain breeds and geographical regions, as well as provided information on genetic and environmental risk factors in some cancers. The objective of this article is to review the prior and current veterinary cancer registries, the information they have contributed and to discuss different issues relating to their structure including inclusion criteria, study populations, reference populations utilized in evaluations, recorded variables and the outcome from these.

Phenotypic and histological expression of different genetic backgrounds in interactions between lettuce, wild Lactuca spp., L. sativa × L. serriola hybrids and Bremia lactucae

Phenotypic and histological responses of cultivated lettuce (Lactuca sativa) and wild relatives L. saligna, L.␣virosa as well as interspecific crosses derived from L. sativa × L. serriola to two races of Bremia lactucae (CS2, CS9) were investigated. With the exception of L. sativa genotypes, all accessions and hybrids expressed incomplete or complete resistance to both pathogen races, with slight differences at seedling and adult plant stages, respectively. Histological features of the interactions (development of pathogen infection structures and host hypersensitive response to attempted infection) were studied on leaf discs 48 h after inoculation. Interactions with similar phenotypic expression of resistance were characterized by significant variation in rate of development of pathogen infection structures and hypersensitive reactions. Differences found within eight Lactuca spp. accessions and hybrids challenged by two distinct pathogen races are interpreted and discussed.     

Isolation and Identification of Enterococcus faecalis from Fur-bearing Animals

In order to obtain Enterococcus faecalis from fur animals and evaluate its prebiotic properties,in this study,Enterococcus faecalis was isolated from the feces of healthy adult fur-bearing animals (mink,fox,raccoon dog),identified by morphological observation,biochemical test and 16S rRNA sequence analysis.The growth curve,acid production capacity and antibiotic sensitivity of the Enterococcus faecalis isolates were measured to evaluate their probiotic properties.Some strains were selected to determine their tolerance to temperature,artificial gastric juice and artificial bile salt.The results showed that five strains were Gram-positive,and their biochemical characteristics were basically consistent with the standard strains of Enterococcus faecalis,and they were identified as Enterococcus faecalis by 16S rRNA sequence analysis.The five strains all entered the logarithmic phase at 2 h after culture,and entered the stable phase at 8-10 h,and had weak acid production capacity.The resistance rate of the isolates to tetracycline and levofloxacin was 100%,followed by penicillin (80%),erythromycin (80%),gentamicin (80%) and chloramphenicol (40%).All the isolates were sensitive to ampicillin and vancomycin.Enterococcus faecalis from mink,fox and raccoon dog had strong tolerance to temperature below 60 ℃,artificial gastric juice with pH>3.0 and 0.3%-0.5% concentration of bile salt,but poor tolerance to temperature above 70 ℃,and artificial gastric juice with pH<3.0.In conclusion,five strains of Enterococcus faecalis from fur animals (mink,fox,raccoon dog) were obtained in this study.The isolated strains propagated rapidly,which were suitable for colonization and played a prebiotic role in fur animals' intestines,and had good prebiotic characteristics and stress resistance.They could be used as candidate strains for animal microbiological agents for further study.     

日粮蛋白质水平对育雏期绿头野鸭生长性能的影响

本研究选用刚出壳的绿头野鸭90只,随机分成3组,每组30只,分别饲喂能量相同,蛋白质水平分别为17.00%、19.00%、21.00%的饲粮,通过饲养和代谢试验研究不同蛋白质水平日粮对育雏期(0～4周龄)绿头野鸭生长性能的影响。结果表明,随着饲粮蛋白质水平的提高,蛋白质的代谢率逐渐下降,各组间差异不显著(P>0.05)。从饲料报酬的角度看,19.00%的蛋白质水平完全可以满足绿头野鸭育雏期(0～4周龄)的生长需要。
