冬季农户规模育肥肉牛效果观察

通过试验观察,从2006年11月21日到2007年2月4日内,每25天为一个观察段,当外界平均气温为5.26、2.50、2.54时,育肥牛日增重分别为1.36 kg、1.23 kg、1.22 kg;说明寒冷对肉牛育肥有较大影响,建议育肥牛场在冬季注意保暖。

Association of a missense mutation in the luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor gene （LHCGR） with superovulation traits in Chinese Holstein heifers

Background: Upon binding luteinizing hormone in the ovary, the luteinizing hormone/choriogonadotropin receptor (LHCGR) is necessary for follicular maturation and ovulation, as well as luteal function. We detected mutations in the LHCGR gene and evaluated their association with superovulation. Methods: Using polymerase chain reaction-single strand conformation polymorphism (PCR-SSCP) and DNA sequencing, we examined polymorphisms in LHCGR and the genotypes associated with superovulation traits in 127 Chinese Holstein heifers. Results: A G/T polymorphism (ss52050737) in exon 11 was significantly associated with the total number of ova and the number of transferable embryos. Conclusions: LHCGR may be a new predictor for superovulation in Chinese Holstein heifers.     

禽白血病病毒ELISA检测方法的建立与初步应用

本研究以在毕赤酵母系统中表达并纯化的p27重组蛋白为包被抗原,HRP标记的兔抗鸡IgY为酶标二抗,建立了一种快速有效的禽蛋白血病病毒ELISA检测方法,并对其反应条件进行优化。结果显示,该方法具有良好的特异性和重复性;与市售商品试剂盒相比,符合率为96.92%,且更为敏感。应用建立的ELISA方法检测来自吉林省内鸡场314份疑似样品,阳性检出率为75.15%。本研究为禽白血病病毒的检测与诊断提供了一种简便、有效的检测方法。     

鸡肠炎沙门氏菌外膜蛋白F的原核表达及免疫原性分析

根据GenBank中收录的鸡肠炎沙门氏菌OmpF基因序列设计1对引物,以鸡肠炎沙门氏菌辽宁分离株基因组为模板,扩增鸡肠炎沙门氏菌OmpF基因,用IEDB Analysis Resource在线预测分析,该基因可能存在15个线性B细胞抗原表位;同时将该基因克隆至原核表达载体PGEX-4T-1中,构建重组表达质粒PGEX-4T-1-OmpF,转入大肠杆菌BL21中,获得OmpF重组蛋白。Western-blot检测结果表明,该重组蛋白的分子质量约为66 kD(含标签蛋白),能被鸡沙门氏菌阳性血清识别,初步证实该蛋白具有免疫原性,为鸡肠炎沙门氏菌亚单位疫苗的进一步研究和开发奠定了理论基础。     

铜对意大利蜜蜂工蜂生理机能的影响

本研究旨在探索意大利蜜蜂工蜂成蜂饲粮中铜的添加水平对蜜蜂生长发育、生理生化及抗氧化性能的影响。从蜂群中随机取3000只刚出房的蜜蜂,随机平均分成6组,分别命名为A、B、C、D、E、F,每组5个重复,每个重复100只蜜蜂;6组工蜂幼虫分别饲喂铜的添加水平为0.00、2.00、4.00、6.00、8.00、10.00μg/g的糖水,饲养至全部死亡。分别取成蜂测定体成分、血淋巴生化指标、抗氧化指标、相关基因表达量、制作中肠切片,并测定寿命。结果表明:(1)铜对蜜蜂寿命的影响显著,从蜜蜂存活率曲线图来看,当饲粮中铜的添加水平为2.00μg/g时对蜜蜂中肠食膜的结构最为有利。(2)与对照组相比,铜的添加水平为2.00~10.00μg/g组9日龄蜜蜂体组织铜含量显著升高(P<0.05),蜜蜂血淋巴中总蛋白(TP)和总胆固醇(TCHO)含量显著降低(P<0.05)。(3)9日龄蜜蜂蜂体超氧化物歧化酶(Cu/Zn-SOD)活性随着铜添加水平的提高出现先升高后降低的趋势,在2.00μg/g时活性最高(P<0.05)。(4)当饲粮中铜的添加水平在0.00~10.00μg/g的范围内不断升高时,CAT、Ctr1基因相对表达量显著增加(P<0.05)。由此得出饲粮中铜的添加水平对蜜蜂的生理机能影响显著。

Identification and validation of a yield-enhancing QTL cluster in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Improvement of rice grain yield (YD) is an important goal in rice breeding. YD is determined by its related traits such as spikelet fertility (SF), 1,000-grain weight (TGW), and the number of spikelets per panicle (SPP). We previously mapped quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for SPP and TGW using the recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from the crosses between Minghui 63 and Teqing. In this study, four QTLs for SF and four QTLs for YD were detected in the RILs. Comparison of the locations of QTLs for these three yield-related traits identified one QTL cluster in the interval between RM3400 and RM3646 on chromosome 3. The QTL cluster contained three QTLs, SPP3a, SF3 and TGW3a, but no YD QTL was located there. To validate the QTL cluster, a BC₄F₂ population was obtained, in which SPP3a, SF3 and TGW3a were simultaneously mapped to the same region. SPP3a, SF3 and TGW3a explained 36.3, 29.5 and 59.0 % of phenotype variance with additive effect of 16.4 spikelets, 6 % SF and 1.8 g grain weight, respectively. In the BC₄F₂ population, though the region has opposite effects on TGW and SPP/SF, a YD QTL YD3 identified in this cluster region can increase 4.6 g grains per plant, which suggests this QTL cluster is a yield-enhancing QTL cluster and can be targeted to improve rice yield by marker aided selection.
