Pathogenic mechanisms of caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus

Goats infected with caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus (CAEV) show chronic arthritis and cachexia, which are progressive in nature. The immunopathogenic mechanisms responsible for these progressive clinical symptoms have not been fully elucidated. Various haematological and immunological parameters were evaluated in experimentally-infected goats showing typical signs of CAEV-induced disease. Infected goats showed recurrent lymphocytosis that may be due to constant presentation of antigen by infected cells of a monocyte/macrophage lineage. The serum alkaline phosphatase and -glutamyl transferase concentrations were elevated in infected goats, a characteristic of hepatic and bone disorders. All other serum chemistry parameters were similar between infected and control goats. Importantly, the serum tumour necrosis factor- (TNF-) levels were higher in infected goats. The cachexia seen in infected goats may be at least partly due to altered metabolism as a result of prolonged elevation of serum TNF- levels. Depressed natural killer cell activity was observed in infected goats and may contribute towards the establishment of a persistent infection with CAEV.Abbreviations AIDS acquired immunodeficiency syndrome - CAEV caprine arthritis-encephalitis virus - GGT -glutamyl transferase - HBSS Hanks' balanced salt solution - HIV human immunodeficiency virus - NK natural killer - PBMC peripheral blood mononuclear cells - PCR polymerase chain reaction - SAP serum alkaline phosphatase - TNF tumour necrosis factor

浑善达克沙地植物蒸腾特征的研究

采用 L i-1 60 0型气孔仪测定了浑善达克沙地主要建群乡土植物种不同季节的蒸腾速率及其环境因子的日进程 ,结果表明 :浑善达克沙地中榆树、黄柳、圆叶桦、砂杞柳、羊草蒸腾速率的日变化均呈单峰曲线 ,而叉分蓼和楔叶茶子呈双峰曲线。同一种植物在不同样地土壤水分条件下 ,蒸腾速率不同。各植物种蒸腾速率的季节变化明显 ,7、8月份蒸腾速率高 ,6月份最低。各植物种中 ,黄柳为低蒸腾植物。回归分析表明 ,影响蒸腾速率最主要的因子为光照强度 ,其次为气温和空气相对湿度 ;蒸腾速率与各因子呈线性相关 ,其关系可用方程 Tr=a+b RH+c T+d Q表示。通过蒸腾速率的比较 ,提出了浑善达克沙地植被恢复应以建立“人工疏林草原”为主。     

干旱区自然灾害监测预警系统的一般模式——以塔里木盆地为例

我国西部干旱区生态环境脆弱 ,自然灾害频繁。塔里木盆地是我国最大的内陆盆地 ,干旱、大风、沙尘暴、洪水、泥石流以及地震、雪灾等自然灾害 ,严重地影响到盆地的生态安全。在RS、GIS及 GPS等技术支持下 ,研究各自然灾害的孕灾机理及过程 ,建立自然灾害的监测评价及预警系统 ,对于塔里木盆地生态环境建设具有重要意义。     

新疆棉区转Bt基因棉对棉田主要害虫及其天敌种群数量的影响

20 0 0～ 2 0 0 1年 ,在新疆棉区系统地研究了转Bt基因棉田主要害虫及其天敌的发生规律。结果表明 :转Bt基因棉对棉铃虫有良好的控制作用 ,发生高峰期百株落卵量和百株幼虫数量都显著低于常规对照 ,转Bt自控田和转Bt化防田棉蚜和棉盲蝽发生数量则显著高于常规棉对照田。在天敌方面 ,转Bt自控田和转Bt化防田较常规棉对照田 ,丽草蛉种群数量有所增加 ,而小花蝽和黑食蚜盲蝽等 5种捕食性和几种寄生性天敌数量都有所下降。转Bt基因棉田棉蚜和棉盲蝽等刺吸性害虫发生数量加重而多种天敌数量减少的趋势值得引起重视。鉴于新疆地区棉铃虫发生数量较低目前无需专门防治的特点 ,作者建议 :可以考虑推广农艺性状较好的常规棉品种并保护天敌 ,以达到控制害虫、丰产丰收的目的。     

Pest Management in Traditional Tropical Agroecosystems: Lessons for Pest Prevention Research and Extension

Based on current agroecological theory and IPM practices, this review explores the role of traditional practices, involving site selection, soil management, timing of planting and harvesting, crop resistance, intercropping, weed management, harvest residue management, post-harvest management, natural enemies management, mechanical control, repellents and traps in the natural regulation of potential pests. In synthesis, the literature suggests that although pest management professionals focus their efforts on pest control, the preventative approach taken by traditional farmers is more effective. Potential constraints to the implementation of this preventive pest management approach include:(1) lack of integration of ecological theory and pest management, (2) lack of cooperation among social and biological scientists, and (3) lack of real efforts to work with farmers as equals and support mechanisms that protect their knowledge. This revised version was published online in July 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
