Effect of chlorogenic acid on intestinal inflammation,antioxidant status,and microbial community of young hens challenged with acute heat stress

Heat stress in poultry is deleterious to productive performance. Chlorogenic acid (CGA) exerts antibacterial, anti-inflammatory, and antioxidant properties. This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary supplemental CGA on the intestinal health and cecal microbiota composition of young hens challenged with acute heat stress. 100-day-old Hy-line brown pullets were randomly divided into four groups. The control group (C) and heat stress group (HS) received a basal diet. HS + CGA₃₀₀ group and HS + CGA₆₀₀ group received a basal diet supplemented with 300- and 600-mg/kg CGA, respectively, for 2 weeks before heat stress exposure. Pullets of HS, HS + CGA₃₀₀, and HS + CGA₆₀₀ group were exposed to 38°C for 4 h while the control group was maintained at 25°C. In this study, dietary CGA supplementation had effect on mitigate the decreased T-AOC and T-SOD activities and the increasing of IL-1β and TNFα induced by acute heat stress. Dietary supplementation with 600 mg/kg CGA had better effect on increasing the relative abundance of beneficial bacterial genera, such as Rikenellaceae RC9_gut_group, Ruminococcaceae UCG-005, and Christensenellaceae R-7_group, and deceasing bacteria genera involved in inflammation, such as Sutterella species. Therefore, CGA can ameliorate acute heat stress damage through suppressing inflammation and improved antioxidant capacity and cecal microbiota composition.     

大蒜根腐病根际土壤真菌群落结构及多样性分析

研究旨在解析根腐病发生时大蒜根际土壤真菌群落结构,明确大蒜根腐病与根际土壤真菌群落多样性变化的关系,探明根腐病发生的微生态机制,为病害的防控提供理论基础。以新疆连续3年的大蒜根腐病发病田的根际土壤为研究对象,采用高通量测序方法对大蒜根际土壤总DNA的真菌ITS区序列进行大规模测序分析。结果表明,与健康对照相比,在门的水平上,子囊菌门和接合菌门真菌是大蒜根腐病根际土壤的优势真菌类群,其中高水平的子囊菌门菌群与病害发生有着密切的关系。在属的水平上,注释获得137个属,其中19个属与大蒜根腐病有较大的相关性。镰刀菌属真菌数量在病土中高于健康对照。随着连作年限的延续,根腐病的发生愈发严重,土壤中真菌群落的Shannon指数、Simpson指数、真菌属的数量逐年降低,大蒜根腐病的发生与植株根际真菌群落组成及多样性密切相关,土壤真菌类群的平衡和多样性改变是根腐病发生的一大诱因。

Comparative performance of the highly invasive Mimosa invisa and its less invasive subspecies under different nutrient and light conditions

Invasive plants may be more plastic than non‐invasive plants and maintain high fitness under various environmental conditions. Previous studies mainly focused on the comparisons between invasive and native plants, and comparisons between highly invasive and less invasive exotic species are still relatively rare, especially for comparisons at the subspecies level. This study examined the effects of nutrient addition and shading on the performance of the highly invasive Mimosa invisa and its less invasive subspecies M. invisa var. inermis under either isolated or competitive conditions. Nutrient addition increased biomass and plant height and decreased root‐to‐shoot ratio (R/S). Shading decreased biomass and R/S and increased plant height. Under isolated conditions, the two invaders did not differ in R/S, plant height and plasticity of these traits in response to nutrient addition or shading, and the two invaders also did not differ in biomass production under each of the nutrient and light treatments. When the two invaders competed with each other, M. invisa outcompeted M. invisa var. inermis under high soil nutrient conditions, and the two invaders did not differ in performance under other growth conditions. Thus, only considering competition may we find out the difference between highly invasive species and their closely related, less invasive subspecies. Management of M. invisa should focus on habitats with high soil nutrient availability, in which M. invisa is more likely to dominate.

成都平原不同作物种植模式生产效率及其影响因素研究—以成都市郫都区为例

为研究成都平原不同种植模式的农田生产效率,基于2017年对成都市郫都区13个乡镇92户农户调查数据,运用DEA-Tobit模型分析了郫都区主要的水旱轮作和旱作种植模式的农田经营效率及影响因素。研究结果表明：不同种植模式平均农田生产效率为0.793,不同模式农田生产效率排序依次为蔬菜连作或轮作(0.957)、水稻-大蒜(0.847)、水稻-油菜(0.782)、韭菜连作(0.759)、水稻-蔬菜(0.722)、水稻-圆根萝卜(0.689),农田生产效率未达到有效值1的原因主要是规模效益较低;同时,各模式均存在资金和劳动力投入冗余,水稻-蔬菜、水稻-油菜模式还存在产出不足问题;影响6种模式生产效率的因素均不相同,政策因素对农田生产效率的影响相对较大。为进一步提高郫都区农田生产效率,建议适度推广农田规模化经营,加强农村富余劳动力转移,完善各类农业政策措施。

Crude garlic extract significantly inhibits replication of grapevine viruses

Efforts to control viral diseases of grapevine include the production of certified material and development of virus-resistant transgenic grapevines. However, effective antiviral agents, once the viruses have infected the plants, are still lacking. This study shows that a crude garlic extract has significant antiviral activity against grapevine viruses. Replication of grapevine leafroll-associated virus 2 (GLRaV-2) was obviously inhibited in grapevine cv. Cabernet Sauvignon calli treated with diluted (1:100) garlic extract. The relative RNA levels of GLRaV-2 and grapevine fleck virus (GFkV) in cv. Summer Black grapevine in in vitro-grown plantlets 10 days after treatment with diluted (1:100) garlic extract were about 22% and 20%, respectively, of that in controls. The viral RNA accumulation of GLRaV-2, GFkV, grapevine virus A (GVA), grapevine fanleaf virus (GFLV) and grapevine rupestris stem pitting-associated virus (GRSPaV) in field-grown grapevine cv. Centennial Seedless plants sprayed with diluted (1:100) garlic extract were about 31–40%, 26–38%, 18–31%, 17–42% and 15–18%, respectively, of that in controls. Moreover, the garlic extract treatment led to a significant decrease in viral RNA accumulation of GLRaV-3, GLRaV-2, GVA, GFkV, GFLV, GRSPaV and grapevine Pinot Gris virus in pot-grown grapevine cv. Shine Muscat plants, and viral disease symptoms in these plants were obviously attenuated. In addition, this extract significantly induced expression of pathogenesis-related protein genes and stimulated activity of antioxidant enzymes in grapevines. Taken together, these results indicate that the crude garlic extract acts as a significant inhibitor against a broad range of grapevine viruses.

确定适宜加工龙井茶的茶树品种的多性状评价指标,建立龙井茶适制品种农艺性状的综合评价体系,为鉴定筛选优良龙井茶适制品种或资源提供技术支撑。对浙江省15份主要栽培茶树品种（系）的芽叶长宽比、百芽重、展叶角度、亮度值(L)、红绿属性(a)、黄蓝属性(b)、色彩饱和度(C)、氨基酸、茶多酚、水浸出物、咖啡碱、酚氨比、外形、汤色、香气、滋味和叶底17项农艺性状进行综合比较,并联合使用主成分分析、聚类分析和层次分析对茶树品种（系）的龙井茶适制性进行综合评价。17项农艺性状的平均变异系数为12.05%,百芽重的变异系数最大(28.15%),叶底的变异系数最小(0.86%),适制龙井茶农艺性状变量间既相对独立又密切相关,应用主成分分析法,将17个评价指标压缩成6个综合指标,经过分析6个主成分函数式中的17项农艺性状系数,可以将17项农艺性状分为外形因子、内质因子、感官因子3个主要指标,这3个主要指标可以较准确地评价龙井茶适制品种,其中芽叶长宽比、a值、茶多酚、酚氨比、外形、香气和汤色是主要性状。采用聚类分析,可以将15个品种分为2个大的类群,采用层次分析可以将茶树品种采制龙井茶的适宜性进行综合排序。采用多元统计分析中的主成分分析和聚类分析对15份茶叶品种的17项农艺性状进行龙井茶适制性综合评价是可行的,结合层次分析可以得到更加准确的排序,可以从不同角度进行较全面客观评价,为龙井茶适制品种的选育提供参考。     

红壤旱地一株自生固氮菌的筛选鉴定及其固氮能力评估

为了鉴定从红壤中分离得到的一株自生固氮菌,并探讨其固氮能力。采用形态观察、生理生化测定和16S rDNA基因序列分析的方法研究了菌株的分类地位,采用乙炔还原法测定其固氮酶活性,并在室内培养条件下,通过花生、玉米的幼苗盆栽试验研究菌株对土壤MBN、矿化氮和植株氮素积累量的影响。结果表明：从种植于红壤的玉米根际,筛选出15株自生固氮菌,以菌株CM12固氮能力最强,初步鉴定CM12为伯霍尔德杆菌属(Burkholderia sp.),固氮酶活性达C₂H₄ 39.1 nmol/(h·mL)。室内培养试验结果表明,接种CM12菌株的处理,花生和玉米土壤MBN含量较CK处理分别提高了2.38和2.37倍,其中种植花生体系中,接菌处理与施用化学氮肥处理土壤MBN含量无显著差异。接种固氮菌影响了旱地红壤NO₃^--N和NH₄⁺-N比例,降低了土壤中NO₃^--N含量,且种植玉米体系中土壤NO₃^--N含量降低较明显。固氮菌短期接种增加了花生根系和玉米地上植株的氮素积累量。研究结果为该菌株在红壤旱地实际生产中的应用提供了理论基础。
