Bioinformatics Analysis of Bone Morphogenetic Protein 4 (BMP4) of Sheep

The assay was aimed to explore the biological characteristics of bone morphogenetic protein 4 (BMP4) of sheep,NCBI,DNAMAN DNAStar,TMHMM Server v.2.0,PsortⅡ,SignalP various bioinformatical softwares were used to speculate the physical and chemical properties,hydrophobic property,phosphorylation site,conservative structure domain,protein secondary structure of BMP4 protein.Also,the three-dimensional structure was forecasted with the SWISS-MODEL Workspace software.The results indicated that the BMP4 of sheep had high homologies with the BMP4 of various species.The encoded protein was a hydrophilic protein which was unstable.There was no transmembrane regions and it was likely to be located in the nucleus.What was more,there was signal peptide and eighteen phosphorylation sites.Through the forecast of functional domains,the protein had two functional domains,including the transforming growth factor-beta (TGF-beta) superfamily and TGF-beta propeptide superfamily.The result was consistent with the function of BMP4 gene family,it also demonstrated that BMP4 was a growth factor and it had the function of signal transduction.The amino acid homology between the predicted 3D structure of protein and template 3bmp.1.A was 88.29%.The bioinformatics analysis of BMP4 gene could provide reference for the further study in practice.     

Hyperspectral Models for Estimating SPAD Value of Cotton Leaves under Waterlogging Stress

[Object] To setup the hyperspectral sensing models for estimating SPAD value of cotton leaves under waterlogging stress. [Method] Irrigation and drainage controllable plots were introduced to simulate the waterlogging stress treatment in the flowering and boll forming stage, during which the change characteristics of the cotton leaf spectral reflectance and SPAD value were observed after 1 d, 3 d, 6 d, 9 d waterlogging, respectively. To find out the hyperspectral sensing models for estimating SPAD value of cotton leaves under waterlogging stress, the correlation and regression relationships between SPAD value and spectrum parameters were analyzed. [Result] (1) The SPAD value of the fourth cotton leaf from the top was significantly lower than control when suffers from waterlogging for 3 d, when waterlogged 9 d the SPAD value decreased by around 15% compared with the control. (2) The cotton suffering from waterlogged damage in the flowering and boll forming stage caused the reflection peak in green light wave band became steep, while the near infrared spectral reflectance increased, and caused the reduction of red absorption and red edge position "blue shifts", the red edge position drifts towards short wave with 4～5 nm when suffers from waterlogging for 9 d. With increase of the waterlogged days, the red edge slope and red edge area increased with a maximum value at 6 d of waterlogging, meanwhile, the skewness and kurtosis of red edge increased. (3) After waterlogging, the SPAD value of the fourth cotton leaf from the top (chlorophyll content) had a remarkable correlation with red edge slope(Dr), red edge position(λr), green peak reflection(Rg), green peak position(λg), red well position(λo), blue edge area(SDb), yellow edge skewness(Sy), yellow edge kurtosis(Ky), red edge skewness(Sr), red edge kurtosis(Kr), etc. An experience linear, polynomial and exponential models for estimating SPAD value had been built through using the Sy, Sr, Kr as independent variables, respectively, their determination coefficient (R²) were greater than 0.9, and the root mean square error (RMSE) were less than 1; and an experience binary linear regression equation for estimating SPAD value had been built through multivariate regression using the λg, SDr/SDb(VI3), Sb, Sy, Ky as independent variables, the R² was as high as 0.973, and the RMSE was 0.393. [Conclusion] The model can be remote sensing model used as estimating leaf SPAD of cotton value under waterlogging stress.     

试析费孝通西部大开发的人文生态思想

著名社会学家费孝通先生为了西部的发展开展了广泛的社会调查,研究了当地少数民族的历史和现状。他发现有关西部开发主要集中在物质文明和经济利益层面,忽略了文化艺术。在费孝通看来,西部的贫困与生态失衡之间有着密切的关系,他指出生态平衡是西部大开发的根本,民族共同繁荣是西部大开发的重点,人文资源是西部大开发的宝库。因此,他提出要保护、开发和利用西部的人文资源,认为只有将人文和地理结合起来考察西部的开发,才是我国经济发展逐步发育成熟的表现,只有这样才符合邓小平关于我国现代化建设＂两个大局＂战略思想,符合我国全面推进社会主义现代化建设的战略部署

冻土帷幕界面设置加热限位管时温度场数值分析

为解决现有人工冻结法施工后周围地层产生冻胀融沉所引发不良后果的问题,可设置加热限位管对冻土帷幕的发展进行限制,从而达到控制冻胀融沉的目的。本文运用有限元软件研究在冻土帷幕界面上设置加热限位管时对冻土帷幕温度场发展的影响规律,主要得出:加热限位管盐水温度每升高5℃,冻土帷幕厚度就减小约0.2 m;在已冻结30 d,冻土厚度发展到1.6 m冻土上,加热限位管循环5℃盐水时,随着时间的增加冻土厚度慢慢变小,加热限位管作用效果明显;在限位管开始循环热水前期,各点温度都有明显上升,离限位管越近温度所受影响越大;随着时间的推移,各点温度趋于稳定,循环热盐水温度越高,趋于稳定的温度值也越高。所得结果可为今后类似工程设计提供参考依据。

日粮中添加β-胡萝卜素对牦牛皮下脂肪颜色及组织中维生素A含量的影响

试验旨在探究日粮中添加不同水平β-胡萝卜素（β-C）对牦牛皮下脂肪颜色及组织维生素A含量的影响。试验选取12头2~3岁牦牛为研究对象，随机分为4个组，每组3个重复。各处理组日粮分别在基础日粮中添加0（对照）、720（低剂量）、1 440（中剂量）、1 620 mg/d（高剂量）β-C，饲养90 d后，分别测定牦牛脂肪、肌肉色度、背膘厚度及不同组织中β-C和代谢产物维生素A的含量，结果表明：日粮中添加不同水平β-C，牦牛背部、胸部脂肪及半腱肌的黄度值（b^*）显著高于对照组（P<0.05），亮度值（L^*）和红度值（a^*）没有显著变化（P>0.05）；牦牛背膘厚度在中剂量组达到最大值；对照组牦牛血清中β-C及维生素A含量显著低于各试验组（P<0.05），且维生素A含量随β-C添加量的上升呈上升趋势（P<0.05）；牦牛皮下脂肪、腹腔脂肪、心脏、肝脏、脾脏、肺脏、肾脏及空肠等组织器官中β-C含量在中剂量组均达到最大值，除肝脏中维生素A含量较高外，其他组织中维生素A含量在各处理组间差异不显著（P<0.05）。综上所述，日粮添加β-C影响牦牛皮下脂肪颜色，且在中剂量组牦牛皮下脂肪、心脏、肝脏、脾脏及空肠等组织器官中β-C含量达到最大值，故推荐其最佳摄入量为1 440 mg/d；在日粮中添加β-C影响牦牛肝脏和血清中维生素A含量，对其余组织器官中维生素A含量没有影响。     

ABA、H_2O_2与NO供体硝普钠对基因表达以及枣果发育的影响

枣在成熟期间遇到连阴雨天气会发生严重的裂果现象,这种基于基因表达的生理病害的发生与非生物或生物胁迫有关。以吕梁当地木枣为试材,在木枣成熟期,采用改良CTAB法检测组织中DNA纯度及含量的变化,研究ABA、H2O2与NO供体硝普钠(SNP)在枣果发育中对基因表达的影响。结果表明:ABA、H2O2与NO供体硝普纳(SNP)对枣果发育中DNA纯度及含量的影响不一,差异较为明显。其中不同浓度的ABA处理枣果组织中DNA的OD260/OD280比值基本不在1.700~1.900范围内,DNA纯度差异明显。但样品DNA含量较高,其值在1 200ng/μL左右;H2O2和SNP处理样品DNA的OD260/OD280比值基本上在1.700~1.900之间,DNA纯度较高。样品DNA含量基本上小于或在1 000ng/μL左右。外源ABA较为明显地干扰了基因表达,诱导了新蛋白质、RNA和酚类物质等的生物合成,有促进木枣果发育的趋势;而H2O2和NO供体硝普钠(SNP)对基因表达或枣果发育的影响不十分明显。     

Impact of fluxapyroxad on the microbial community structure and functional diversity in the silty-loam soil

The aim of this work was to assess the effect of applying three different doses of fluxapyroxad on microbial activity, community structure and functional diversity as measured by respiration, microbial biomass C, phospholipid fatty acid(PLFA) and community-level physiological profiles(CLPPs). Our results demonstrated that substrate-induced respiration(on day 15) and microbial biomass C(on days 7 and 15) were inhibited by fluxapyroxad, but stimulation was observed thereafter. In contrast, fluxapyroxad addition increased the basal respiration and metabolic quotients(q CO2) and respiratory quotients(QR). Analysis of the PLFA profiles revealed that the total and bacterial biomass(both Gram-positive bacteria(GP) and Gram-negative bacteria(GN)) were decreased within the initial 15 days, whereas those as well as the GN/GP ratio were increased at days 30 and 60. F luxapyroxad input decreased the fungi biomass but increased the bacteria/fungi ratio at all incubation time. Moreover, high fluxapyroxad input(75 mg fluxapyroxad kg–1 soil dry weight) increased the microbial stress level. A principal component analysis(PCA) of the PLFAs revealed that fluxapyroxad treatment s ignificantly shifted the microbial community structure, but all of the observed effects were transient. Biolog results showed that average well color development(AWCD) and functional diversity index(H′) were increased only on day 60. I n addition, the dissipation of fluxapyroxad was slow in soil, and the degradation half-lives varied from 158 to 385 days depending on the concentration tested.
