干番茄渣代替豆粕对肉牛瘤胃发酵和氮代谢的影响

干番茄渣可用于反刍动物的替代营养饲料。据有限的文献资料显示,用干番茄渣代替豆粕会降低瘤胃发酵和微生物合成能力。在本试验中,用装瘤胃瘘管的肉牛来验证用干番茄渣代替豆粕是否会对采食、瘤胃发酵和氮代谢造成影响。用拉丁方设计饲喂试验,受试牛分别饲喂混入3.2%、8.0%和11.2%干番茄渣的全混日粮。结果发现,用干番茄渣代替饲料中豆粕不影响采食量,但是改变了瘤胃发酵指标,即增加干番茄渣摄入量导致瘤胃pH值升高和氨浓度增加,并且呈摄入量依赖性增加,但是挥发性脂肪酸浓度和瘤胃微生物数量并未改变;饲料中添加高水平干番茄渣使血液中尿素浓度呈线性、剂量依赖性增加。很明显,胃肠道对中性和耐酸纤维的总消化率并未受番茄渣的影响。饲喂番茄渣增加了粪氮的排泄,从而降低了尿氮的排泄量。用干番茄渣代替豆粕影响肉牛瘤胃发酵和氮的代谢,但是实际上对反刍动物生产性能的影响还不能确定。     

Molecular cloning and functional analysis of duck Toll-like receptor 5

Toll-like receptor 5 (TLR5) is responsible for the recognition of bacterial flagellin in vertebrates. In this study, we cloned the single-exon TLR5 gene of the Maya breed of Common Shelduck (Tadorna tadorna). The TLR5 open reading frame is 2580 bp in length and encodes an 859-amino acid protein. The putative amino acid sequence of duck TLR5 consisted of a signal peptide sequence, 11 leucine-rich repeat domains, a leucine-rich repeat C-terminal domain, a transmembrane domain, and an intracellular Toll-interleukin-1 receptor domain. The duck TLR5 gene was highly expressed in the lung, bone marrow, spleen, and liver; moderately expressed in kidney, small intestine, large intestine, and brain. A plasmid expressing duck TLR5 was constructed and transfected into HEK293T cells, and expression was confirmed by indirect immunofluorescence assay. HEK293T cells transfected with duck TLR5- and NF-κB-luciferase-containing plasmids significantly responded to flagellin from Salmonella typhimurium, indicating that it is a functional TLR5 homolog.     

Immune responses in piglets infected with highly pathogenic porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus

Porcine reproductive and respiratory syndrome virus (PRRSV) infection compromises the host's innate and adaptive immunity. The aim of this study was to investigate the immune responses of piglets infected with highly pathogenic (HP) PRRSV (HuN4 strain) with or without the immunization with CH-1R attenuated PRRSV vaccine. The response was evaluated for the clinical signs, pathological changes and virus load in immune organs, antibody responses and levels of serum IFN-γ, IL-4 and IL-10. The result showed that in comparison with the piglets received the immunization, the piglets infected with HP-PRRSV alone had the thymus atrophy, decreased serum levels of IL-4 and increased serum levels of IL-10 and INF-γ. These results suggest that elevated IL-10 levels at the early stage of the infection may enhance virus survival and delay the induction of protective immunity, while increased levels of IL-4 induce the effective immune responses and increase the animals' health status.     

高等农林院校数学建模教育研究与实践

结合1994～1998年甘肃农业大学大学生数学协会数学建模讨论班的实践经验,提出了：高等农林院校数学素质教育内容应包括数学基础教育、数学建模教育、数学建模实践3方面;数学建模教育的形式是“讨论班”;数学建模能力巩固、提高的方式是数学建模竞赛;要培养真正合格的素质型建设人才必须在大学期间参加适当的数学建模实践。并指出只有更多的专家、教授、学者参与到数学素质教育中来,使专业与数学教育真正相结合,数学建模教育乃至数学素质教育的口的才能真正实现。     

柑桔黑斑病的发病特点及检测方法研究进展

柑桔黑斑病(Citrus Black Spot,CBS)是一种真菌性病害,主要为害果实,并产生褐色斑点,严重时蔓延至全果,造成果实腐烂,显著影响果实的品质和外观,降低经济价值,被欧美等国列为重要的检疫性病害,近年来该病在我国一些柑桔产区已上升为主要病害。本文主要从柑桔黑斑病的病原菌、发病特点及检测方法等几个方面进行简要的概述。     

Relationship between stable carbon isotope discrimination and water use efficiency under regulated deficit irrigation of pear-jujube tree

To investigate the relationship between stable carbon isotope discrimination (Δ) of different organs and water use efficiency (WUE) under different water deficit levels, severe, moderate and low water deficit levels were treated at bud burst to leafing, flowering to fruit set, fruit growth and fruit maturation stages of field grown pear-jujube tree, and leaf stable carbon isotope discrimination (Δ_L) at different growth stages and fruit stable carbon isotope discrimination (Δ_F) at fruit maturation stage were measured. The results indicated that water deficit had significant effect on Δ_L at different growth stages and Δ_F at fruit maturation stage. As compared with full irrigation, the average Δ_L at different growth stages and Δ_F at fruit maturation stage were decreased by 1.23% and 2.67% for different water deficit levels, respectively. Δ_L and Δ_F among different water deficit treatments had significant difference at the same growth stage (P < 0.05). Under different water deficit conditions, significant relationships between the Δ_L and WUE_i (photosynthesis rate/transpiration rate, P_n/T_r), WUE_n (photosynthesis rate/stomatal conductance of CO_2, P_n/g_s), WUE_y (yield/crop water consumption, Y/ET_c) and yield, or between the Δ_F and WUE_y and yield were found, respectively. There were significantly negative correlations of Δ_L with WUE_i, WUE_n, WUE_y and yield (P < 0.01) at the fruit maturation stage, or Δ_L with WUE_i and WUE_n (P < 0.01) over whole growth stage, respectively. Δ_F was negatively correlated with WUE_y, WUE_n and yield (P < 0.05), but positively correlated with ET_c (P < 0.01) over the whole growth stage. Thus Δ_L or Δ_F can compare WUE_n and WUE_y, so the stable carbon isotope discrimination method can be applied to evaluate the water use efficiency of pear-jujube tree under the regulated deficit irrigation.
