Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of the CrDAT gene and selection of transgenic periwinkle lines with a high vincristine accumulation

Catharanthus roseus contains vincristine and vinblastine, which are outstanding drugs for cancer. In the biosynthetic pathways of terpenoid indole alkaloids (TIAs) in C. roseus, deacetylvindoline 4-O-acetyltransferase (DAT) is a key enzyme that catalyses the last reaction of vindoline biosynthesis to form vinblastine and vincristine. In this study, the CrDAT transgene was transferred into the periwinkle by Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and generated transgenic periwinkle lines with an increase in vincristine accumulation. The C. roseus DAT gene was introduced into C. roseus plants and it was confirmed that CrDAT was successfully transferred into the genome of periwinkle plants and efficiently translated to synthesise recombinant DAT protein. Four transgenic periwinkle lines in T1 generation, T1-1, T1-3, T1-6, and T1-7, expressed recombinant DAT protein with the total protein content in the range of 2.86 μg.mg^?1 to 5.12 μg.mg^?1. Moreover, the vincristine contents of four transgenic lines increased by 1.63?2.48-fold compared to non-transgenic plants, ranging from 6.91 µg.g^?1 (fresh weight) to 10.53 µg.g^?1 (fresh weight). The T1-1 line had the highest vincristine content. Hence, the overexpression of the recombinant DAT protein can improve the vincristine accumulation of transgenic C. roseus plants.

河北省棉田绿盲蝽绿色防控技术体系构建

为了构建科学合理、可操作性强的河北省棉田绿盲蝽绿色防控技术体系，于2011－2015年在河北省沧州植棉区开展了棉田绿盲蝽绿色防控技术研究，包括色板诱杀、性信息素、频振式杀虫灯和高效生物农药应用等，并逐步构建了针对棉田绿盲蝽的绿色防控技术体系。根据相关研究发现，该绿色防控技术对棉田绿盲蝽有较好的防治效果，与常规防治区相比，减药控害成果显著。     

醉马草的有毒成分研究

本研究用溶剂提取法和阳离子交换树脂法首次从醉马草中提取、分离出一种生物碱成分,我们称其为醉马草毒素。动物毒性试验证明,醉马草毒素是醉马草的主要有毒成分。经元素分析及有机波谱分析确定了结构式。 马属动物按照10g/kg体重的剂量,一次灌服醉马草干粉或相当剂量的粗提物,即可引起与自然发病相同的急性中毒。症状主要表现为精神极度沉郁、翘尾,四肢无力,行走如醉,肌肉震颤,心跳加快,呼吸迫促等。     

云贵川三省部分地区警犬狂犬病血清中和抗体调查

为评价警犬的狂犬病免疫效果,了解影响免疫效果的因素,2017年在云南、贵州、四川三省部分地区免疫狂犬病疫苗的警犬中随机抽样,采用荧光抗体病毒中和试验(FAVN),检测血清中狂犬病病毒中和抗体效价。结果显示,共抽检187只警犬,中和抗体阳性127只(≥0.50 IU/m L),总体免疫合格率为67.91%,其中云南、贵州、四川3省的免疫合格率分别为57.14%、68.33%、76.06%。结果分析表明,警犬狂犬病免疫合格率与犬的年龄、免疫次数、疫苗类型等因素有关,而与性别和品种无关。建议完善警犬免疫程序,加大血清中和抗体监测力度,对不合格警犬及时加强免疫;对每个影响因素进行连续性分析,以确定影响警犬狂犬病免疫合格率的具体因素。     

2018年山东省诸城市小反刍兽疫免疫效果横断面调查

为掌握山东省诸城市小反刍兽疫的免疫效果,2018年6月采用横断面研究方法,对该市规模场和自然村（散养户）饲养羊只进行小反刍兽疫免疫效果评估。采用两阶段随机抽样方法,结合部分便利抽样,采集580份羊血清样品进行ELISA 抗体检测。结果显示：合格样品560份,合格率达96.5%;14个规模场均免疫合格,群体合格率达到100%;在抽检的16个自然村中,15个村免疫合格。结果表明,诸城市小反刍兽疫总体免疫效果良好。     

Effects of Dietary Supplementation of Barodon on Growth Performance,Innate Immunity and Disease Resistance of Juvenile Olive Flounder,Paralichthys olivaceus,Against Streptococcus iniae

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary supplementation of Barodon, an anionic alkali mineral complex, on growth, feed utilization, humoral innate immunity and disease resistance of olive flounder. A basal experimental diet was used as a control and supplemented with 0.1, 0.2, 0.3, 0.4, or 0.5% Barodon. Triplicate groups of fish (26.4 ± 0.2 g) were fed one of the diets to apparent satiation twice daily for 10 wk. The growth performance was enhanced (P < 0.05) linearly and quadratically in fish fed diets containing Barodon compared with that in fish fed the control. Feed utilization was significantly improved by Barodon supplementation. Serum lysozyme and antiprotease activities were increased quadratically in Barodon fed groups. Also, significantly higher superoxide dismutase activity was found in Barodon‐fed fish. Dietary supplementation of 0.1–0.3% Barodon resulted in significant enhancement of fish disease resistance against Streptococcus iniae. The findings in this study indicate that dietary supplementation of Barodon can enhance growth, feed utilization, innate immunity, and disease resistance of olive flounder and that the optimum level seems to be 0.1% in diets.

基于机器视觉的马铃薯晚疫病快速识别

晚疫病是马铃薯的一种严重病害,可造成减产甚至绝收。因此马铃薯晚疫病的识别与控制对提高其产量有非常重要的意义。该文基于机器视觉技术对马铃薯叶部晚疫病进行检测,根据马铃薯叶片上晚疫病斑的颜色、纹理和形状特征参数的不同,提取叶片表面的特征参数,并建立数学模型对病害程度做出评价。在RGB、HSV颜色空间中,根据马铃薯叶片在患病早期叶片颜色发生变化且与健康叶片不同,利用颜色特征,建立马铃薯晚疫病的无病和患病模型,该模型对马铃薯患病早期的识别率为67.5%。利用灰度共生矩阵,采用纹理统计参数进行病害等级评价,用熵值和能量值描述晚疫病的严重程度,纹理特征对患病程度的识别率比较稳定,对患病中期与后期的识别率分别为72.5%与80%。利用形状特征的相对特征,根据病斑面积比进行晚疫病诊断,该方法对马铃薯叶片晚疫病患病后期的诊断取得较好效果,识别率为90%,但由于叶片患病早期的病斑面积小且分散,识别难度大,识别率仅为50%。针对颜色、纹理及形状特征在识别马铃薯叶片晚疫病时的优势与局限性,提出颜色纹理形状特征结合的识别方法,对患病中期与后期的识别率分别为90%和92.5%。通常马铃薯晚疫病的理化值检测法耗时数天,但利用机器视觉识别马铃薯晚疫病患病情况非常快速,根据颜色特征进行病害识别的时间约为4 s,纹理特征识别的时间为7 s,形状特征特征识别的时间为3 s,综合颜色纹理形状特征的识别由于计算量较大,识别时间为9 s。该研究可为基于机器视觉的马铃薯晚疫病的快速检测提供理论依据。
