Ovipositor length of threeApocrypta species: Effect on oviposition behavior and correlation with syconial thickness

We investigated oviposition behavior in three non-pollinating fig wasps: the sympatric speciesApocrypta bakeri Joseph onFicus hispida L.,A. westwoodi Grandi onF. racemosa L., andApocrypta sp. onF. semicordata Buch.-Ham. The oviposition behavior differs significantly between one pair of species (A. bakeri andA. westwoodi) and the other species (Apocrypta sp. onF. semicordata).A. bakeri andA. westwoodi were similar in the following aspects: the posture of the abdomen and the action of the hind legs before penetration, and the bending ovipositor sheath during penetration. In contrast, the oviposition behavior ofApocrypta sp. is quite different. This difference can be explained by the significant correlation between ovipositor length and syconial thickness.Apocrypta sp. has a shorter ovipositor than the two other species, which correlates with the thinner syconial wall of its host figF. semicordata. It is deduced that the ovipositor length adapts to the syconial thickness and induces the oviposition behavior in the different species to diverge. For all threeApocrypta species, the midleg length and hindleg length are significantly correlated with their ovipositor lengths. This may be explained as due to the fact that body movement adjusting the hindlegs and midlegs up and down, or forward and backward, is also influenced by the ovipositor length.     

葡萄自交与杂交后代香气成分的遗传研究

 利用气相色谱- 质谱- 计算机联用系统(GC-MC-CS) 对两个自交组合、1个杂交组合亲本及其后代的香气成分进行研究。结果表明: 同一组合中不同香气成分的分离情况不同, 同种香气成分在不同组合中的分离情况也不完全相同。果实香气成分的遗传主要表现为分离( 1∶1、1∶3、3∶1、15∶1) 与不分离两种方式, 发生分离的成分有些是由单基因控制的, 有些是由多基因控制的。     

菇木年龄对香菇产量和营养成份含量的影响

用南酸枣、秃瓣杜英、马褂木、麻栎、锥栗、枫香、银荆等7个优良菇木树种的不同年龄树木木屑作为栽培基质，选用126香菇品种做供试菌株，通过香菇总产量、冬菇产量、香菇营养物质含量的对比试验，结果表明，这7种菇木林树种7年树龄木屑栽菇香菇的性能优于或不低于15年成年树龄，用南酸枣、秃瓣杜英、马褂木、麻栎、锥栗、枫香、银荆作为经营短轮伐期菇木林树种是可行的。     

木瓜叶片矿质元素含量分析

果树叶片营养诊断能指导科学、合理地施肥,这在许多果树上已有研究报道[1,2],但在木瓜栽培上尚未见报道.我们对木瓜叶片中氮、磷、钾、钙、镁、铁、锌、铜、锰、硼10种元素的动态变化进行了研究,旨在为木瓜的矿质营养诊断提供一个合理可靠的采样依据,为木瓜的矿质营养特点研究及生产施肥提供科学依据.     

荧光PCR快速诊断一起新城疫

2005年1月底．广东省某规模养殖场的鸡出现了张口喘气、呼吸困难，有呼噜声、咳嗽，排黄绿色粪便等症状．部分鸡还有神经症状。发病约450只．发病率为1．2％。三天后鸡只陆续出现死亡．两天内死亡50只左右。解剖病死鸡，可见：喉头、气管粘膜明显出血，小肠轻度炎症。回肠、直肠、泄殖腔粘膜出血。临床无法确诊。经实验室快速诊断．为新城疫感染。

犬胚胎移植手术路径研究性试验

犬胚胎移植手术路径的确定是移植能否成功的关键。我们选择了12例自然发情的母犬，分为供体组和受体组，每组6头。通过生物检测镜确定排卵时间，用腹腔镜观察卵巢黄体发育情况，同时于交配后第9、11、13天剖腹探查，确定冲卵时间。结果于交配后第11天冲洗供体犬左侧子宫角，保留右侧子宫角的两例犬受孕，移植给2头受体犬左侧子宫角。     

潜叶蝇在大庆市日光温室蔬菜上的发生与为害

对潜叶蝇在北方节能日光温室蔬菜上的发生和为害进行调查研究。结果表明,3～11月潜叶蝇在日光温室蔬菜上均有发生,其中5月中旬～6月中旬、9月下旬～10月中旬是为害高峰期;一日中9:00～11:00、13:00～15:00是潜叶蝇成虫为害高峰期;3月下旬、6月上中旬潜叶蝇/明显升高。     

Relationship between the intracellular calcium concentration changes and left ventricular hypertrophy and function in the spontaneously hypertensive rats

AIM:To elucidate the relationship between the intracellular calcium concentration changes and left ventricular hypertrophy and function in the spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR).METHODS:Intracellular free calcium concentrations were measured by Fura 2 methodology and left ventricular function quantitated by cardiac catheterization in 20 SHR aged 10, 22, and 34 weeks and 20 age-matched Wistar-kyoto (WKY) rats.RESULTS:(1) The systolic blood pressure(SBP), intracellular calcium concentrations and left ventricular mass / body weight index (LVM/BW) were significantly higher in all three age groups of SHR than the corresponding groups of WKY; (2) Compared with age-matched WKY groups, the peak left ventricular pressure descending rate(-dp／dt_max) decreased while left ventricular relaxation time constant (τ)increased significantly in SHR aged 22 and 34 weeks. The peak left ventricular pressure ascending rate(dp／dt_max) and the left ventricular contractility index were significantly increased only in the 34 weeks SHR; (3) Intracellular calcium concentrations showed a positive correlation with LVM/BW,SBP,-dp／dt_max and τ(r=0.47-0.83,P<0.01)and a negative correlation with dp／dt_max and the left ventricular contractility index (r=-0.46,P<0.05 and r=-0.81, P<0.01).CONCLUSION:Intracellular calcium overload is one of the potential mechanisms in the induction of left ventricular hypertrophy as well as of systolic and diastolic dysfunction.     

Cell proliferation and nestin expression in cortex and SEZ of MCAO rats

AIM:To explore the effect of brain ischemia injury on cell proliferation and nestin expression in cortex and subependymal zone (SEZ).METHODS:Using a local brain ischemia model(MCAO), BrdU positive cells of cortex and subependymal zone (SEZ), also nestin positive cells, were observed by immunohistochemistry.RESULTS:BrdU and nestin positive cells in SEZ of MCAO rats were obviously increased. In cortex, only nestin positive cells were observed.CONCLUSION:Neural stem cells in SEZ and cortex were activated after brain ischemia, it may be related with neural recovery after brain ischemia injury.
