The effect of exogenous purine supply on the endogenous excretion of purine derivatives in the urine of growing lambs

An experiment was made to determine the absorption of purine metabolites in dietary nucleic acids through the digestive tract, and also to determine the utilization of nucleic acids absorbed in the body, using growing lambs. Two pairs of 120‐ and 180‐day‐old twin female lambs with a bodyweight of 18.2–19.0 kg were kept in metabolism crates and fed on purine‐free milk replacement (MR) with supplements of exogenous purine (purine base or purine nucleoside) at a level of 0.2 mmol/BW^0.75/d for 5 consecutive days, and thereafter they were maintained in the crates for 4 days. The daily amount of exogenous purine supply was calculated based on the urinary excreted purine derivatives (PD) in lambs fed on milk replacement alone. A urine sample was collected daily for 9 consecutive days, and the urinary excretion of PD was determined daily. Urinary PD excretion opened to increase within 24 h after the dose of purine bases, and the level was recovered on 3 days after ceasing the exogenous purine supply. The recovery of PD in the urine was about 70% of the purine supplement. When purine nucleosides were added to the feed, urinary PD excretion was initiated within 24 h after dosing, and the values were recovered after ending the purine nucleoside supply. The recovery rate of PD in the urine was only 30% of the supplemented purine. The plasma allantoin levels were almost similar after feeding purine bases and purine nucleosides, and the values were mostly in the range (40–60 µmol/L). These findings indicate that an exogenous purine can be directly incorporated into the body, and the purine as nucleoside is more effectively utilized for the synthesis of nucleic acids than as a purine base in the body of growing lambs.

黑皮冬瓜品质综合评价方法的探讨

以24个不同来源、不同类型的黑皮冬瓜为试材,采用数据归一化法进行黑皮冬瓜品质综合评价体系研究。通过对可溶性固形物含量、总酸度、肉质致密性、含水量等营养品质性状以及皮色、瓜形等商品品质性状进行分析,结果表明：肉质致密性以及糖酸比等性状是衡量黑皮冬瓜品质优劣的主要指标,结合当前生产和消费的评价标准,制定了一套综合评价黑皮冬瓜品质的方法。     

温室丝瓜泌蜜规律的初步研究

通过对温室丝瓜泌蜜规律的调查研究,结果表明,在7:00～15:00之间丝瓜花泌蜜高峰期是上午7:00～9:00,9:00达到高峰值,之后基本上不再泌蜜.泌蜜量与温度、湿度相关性很小,差异不显著.雄花花蜜浓度变化和湿度变化存在一定负相关,相关系数r=-0.749,差异达到显著水平(P＜0.05);雌花花蜜浓度和湿度亦呈现负相关,相关系数r=-0.884,差异达到极显著水平(P＜0.01).花蜜浓度的变化和温度存在一定正相关,但差异未达显著水平.花的直径大小对泌蜜量的影响迭极显著水平(P＜0.01).     

长豇豆和丝瓜美洲斑潜蝇防治指标研究

连续自然接虫研究表明,长豇豆和丝瓜开花结实期美洲斑潜蝇产量损失与幼虫密度关系分别符合上列方程：Ｙ＝－０．０１１３８＋０．０００３５Ｘ（ｒ＝０．９９５３）;Ｙ＝－０．００５５２７＋０．０００６１Ｘ（ｒ＝０．９６３４）。根据当前价格和防治费用等因素,得出两种蔬菜在开花结实期的美洲斑潜蝇幼虫防治指标分别为百株８８４－１０２９头和１７７２－１９４５头。

Callus induction and plant regeneration from cotyledonary explants of ash gourd (Benincasa hispida L.)

A protocol for the production of complete plantlets through multiple shoots from the cotyledon-derived calli of ash gourd (Benincasa hispida L.) is described. The embryos were excised from mature seeds and cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 6-benzylaminopurin (BAP, 1–5 μM). After 10 days the well-developed green cotyledons from the growing embryos were isolated and cultured on MS medium fortified with 2,4-D (1–6 μM). The cultured cotyledons gave rise to luxuriantly growing calli after 6 weeks. These calli were subcultured on MS medium supplemented with various concentrations of BAP (1–6 μM) alone or in combination with naphthalene acetic acid (NAA, 0.2 and 0.5 μM) for regeneration. The regenerated shoots were multiplied and rooted on quarter strength MS medium supplemented with indole-3-butyric acid or NAA (1–5 μM). The rooted shoots were transplanted to soil with 90% success.
