药用植物紫花地丁的分子鉴定及其亲缘关系研究

运用RAPD技术对传统药用植物紫花地丁（Viola yedoensis）及其7个近缘种进行了分析,筛选出的6个随机引物在8个种39份材料中共扩增出163个位点,其中161个位点具有多态性,占98.7%;在扩增产物中有7条特异性扩增条带可用于紫花地丁的鉴定。根据RAPD结果计算的各种间遗传距离的范围为0.022 7-0.424 4,斑叶堇菜与细距堇菜的亲缘关系最近,它们间的遗传距离最小（0.022 7）,而与紫花地丁遗传距离最近的是早开堇菜,为0.147 1。在所研究的类群中,维西堇菜与裂叶堇菜的遗传距离最大（0.424 4）。根据遗传距离所作的聚类分析结果与紫花地丁等8种植物的形态分化相一致,此外,同一种的不同个体总是先聚在一起,反映了种内不同个体在遗传组成上相对一致性。研究结果表明,RAPD在种内是相对稳定的,能快速、准确地应用于紫花地丁的分子鉴定及其与近缘类群关系的研究。

通过毒力测定、RT-PCR及F基因的序列测定与遗传进化分析,对2005-2008年从河北省部分地区的发病鸡群中分离到的10株新城疫病毒（NDV）进行了研究。各分离株经典毒力测定结果显示：MDT在37.6～54.4h之间,ICPI在1.71～2.0之间,IVPI值在2.16～2.8之间,均为新城疫病毒强毒株特征。F基因的序列测定表明,分离株之间的核苷酸序列具有77.4%～98.0%的同源性,与疫苗株Lasota的同源性为87.0%～98.9%,与国内标准强毒株F48E9同源性为89.7%～98.9%。推导其氨基酸序列分析表明,8个分离株的F蛋白的裂解位点氨基酸组成为112 R-R-Q-K-R-F117,具有NDV强毒株特征,与毒力测定结果相符,2个分离株的F蛋白的裂解位点氨基酸组成为112 G-R-Q-G-R-L117,与弱毒株特征相符。F基因分型和同源性比较显示：目前河北新城疫的流行以基因Ⅶ型为主（占70%）,同时兼有基因Ⅱ型（占20%）和基因Ⅸ型（占10%）。     

湛江地区肉牛棚舍环境评价

为了解热带地区双坡式棚舍散栏饲养模式下的环境特征,在湛江测定了肉牛舍的温度、湿度、气流、PM10等指标。结果表明:棚舍内外温湿度几乎相同,换气量超过了最大换气量,PM10优于卫生标准,温湿指数范围为78～85,处于热应激状态。考虑了气流影响的体感温度范围为25～30.5℃,晴天的14:00和19:00,风速为0.95～1.30 m/s,气流显著地减少了高温的影响。棚顶隔热能力差,晴天棚顶内外表面温差不足1℃,棚顶内表面最高可达60.8℃,此时的舍内气温仅为33.4℃,棚舍自然换气调节是环境控制的主体。

Oral vaccination of brushtail possums (Trichosurus vulpecula) with BCG: immune responses,persistence of BCG in lymphoid organs and excretion in faeces

AIMS: To determine immune responses, and the localisation and persistence of Mycobacterium bovis bacille Calmette-Guérin (BCG) in gut-associated lymphoid tissues (GALT) and other organs in possums vaccinated orally with lipid-formulated BCG vaccine. To determine the duration of excretion and longevity of survival of BCG in the faeces of vaccinated animals.

METHODS: Possums (n=28) were vaccinated with lipid-formulated BCG (1 x 10 ⁸ colony forming units (cfu) of formulated BCG) by the oral route. Control possums (n=17) were fed oral bait pellets containing formulation medium only. Possums were sacrificed at 3 days and at 1, 3, 6 and 8 weeks after vaccination or ingestion of bait. Proliferation responses to bovine purified protein derivative (PPD) were measured in lymphocytes from blood and mesenteric lymph nodes (MLN) and samples of lung, spleen, liver, MLN and Peyer's patches (PP) were cultured for the presence of BCG. The number of BCG organisms excreted in faeces and the duration of excretion were determined in eight vaccinated possums and eight control possums over a 3-week period. In a separate experiment, a further six possums were vaccinated with oral BCG vaccine (5–10 x 10 ⁸ cfu BCG/possum) and their faeces collected over 48–72 h, for culture of BCG. The longevity of survival of BCG in these faeces was determined by storing faecal samples (n=12) under three different conditions: in an incubator (22.5°C), and conditions which simulated the forest floor and open pasture. A proportion (1–2 g) of these faecal samples was collected after storage for 1, 3, 5, 8 or 20 weeks, and cultured for BCG.

RESULTS: Possums vaccinated orally with BCG vaccine showed strong proliferation responses to bovine PPD in peripheral blood lymphocytes at 6–8 weeks post-vaccination (p.v.). Positive lymphocyte proliferation assay (LPA) responses to bovine PPD were first evident in MLN at 3 weeks p.v. BCG was cultured from MLN and PP in a proportion of animals at 3–8 weeks p.v. BCG was not cultured from sections of spleen, lung or liver at any time p.v. BCG was recovered in low to moderate numbers from the faeces of vaccinated possums for up to 7 days, and maximal numbers were cultured in faeces collected 48–72 h p.v. After storage for 1 week, BCG was cultured from all faecal samples placed in the incubator and from a proportion of faeces exposed to conditions similar to those on the forest floor and pasture. With the exception of one faecal sample stored under forest floor conditions which was culture-positive for BCG at 3 and 5 weeks, BCG was not cultured from any other faecal sample stored for more than 1 week.

CONCLUSIONS: Ingestion of oral BCG vaccine by possums was associated with the development of strong cell-mediated immunity in both blood and MLN. Following oral vaccination with BCG, the organisms were localised and persisted in GALT but did not spread to the spleen, liver or lungs. BCG was shed in low to moderate numbers in the faeces for up to 7 days p.v. The viability of BCG excreted in faeces decreased rapidly, particularly when faeces were exposed to an open pasture environment. Oral vaccination of possums with formulated BCG is unlikely to result in undue contamination of the environment with BCG.

紫花苜蓿不同品种对卡那霉素敏感性分析

组织培养条件下卡那霉素(Kan)对不同紫花苜蓿品种(秘鲁、富平、甘农3号)愈伤组织诱导及芽分化的影响进行了研究,实验结果表明:不同的外植体对卡那霉素的敏感性差异较大,不同品种间也存在差异。子叶对卡那霉素的敏感性高于下胚轴,当卡那霉素的浓度为20mg/L时,子叶的愈伤率极低。子叶愈伤阶段卡那霉素的有效工作浓度为15~18mg/L,分化阶段为40mg/L。下胚轴对卡那霉素的敏感性因品种不同:秘鲁苜蓿愈伤阶段的选择压为60mg/L,分化阶段以50mg/L为宜。富平苜蓿和甘农3号苜蓿愈伤阶段的选择压力分别为80mg/L9、0mg/L,分化阶段选择压降低到60mg/L。另外,如果在愈伤阶段加入选择压,后期分化中应适当降低压力或除去压力,以利于体细胞胚的产生和发育。     

BVDV对后备牛生长发育状况及繁殖性能的影响

牛病毒性腹泻/黏膜病(BVD/MD)是一种严重危害奶牛健康的病毒性传染病,其病原为牛病毒性腹泻病毒(BVDV)。BVDV感染牛后主要表现两种状态,即一过性感染(TI)和持续性感染(PI)。BVD在牛场的流行,可严重影响奶牛的生产性能、繁殖性能及牛群健康状况,对奶牛的影响可表现为流产、胎儿畸形、腹泻和免疫抑制等。怀孕母牛在特定妊娠阶段感染BVDV后,可娩出PI犊牛,部分PI犊牛能像正常犊牛一样生长发育至成年,但其生长发育状况和繁殖性能较同龄健康牛差异十分明显。为评价BVDV对后备牛生长发育及繁殖状况的影响,笔者采用ELISA方法检出北京地区28个规模化奶牛场141头BVDV-PI牛,并与同龄健康牛生长发育及繁殖数据相比较,结果表明,BVDV-PI后备牛各月龄段的体高、体重均低于健康后备牛,其首次输精日龄、配准日龄、耗精量明显高于健康后备牛,而一次情期受胎率显著低于健康后备牛。数据显示,BVDV严重影响后备牛的生长发育及繁殖状况。
