强化防微措施 提高蚕种质量

衡量蚕种质量的主要指标有蚕品种的杂交率、良卵率、家蚕微粒子病的带毒率,其中毒率的高低对蚕种质量影响很大.目前,我国在有望加入世界经济贸易组织的利好消息刺激下,茧丝绸行业有所复苏,蚕业又将进入一个新的发展时期.在本行业处于衰兴交替之时,我们种场又将面临一次新的挑战.种场只有加强对原蚕饲养基地的技术投入和资金投入,采取有效的防微措施,提高蚕种质量,才能在竞争中获胜.     

饲料钙测定中原子吸收法和高锰酸钾滴定法的比较

在国家标准中，饲料中钙的测定方法是高锰酸钾滴定法。其方法原理是：将试样中有机物破坏，钙变成溶于水的离子，用草酸铵定量沉淀，用高锰酸钾法间接测定钙含量。此方法前处理较繁琐，前后需三天时间，检测周期较长。对于大批量的样品检测的速度带来一定的影响。原子吸收法测定比高锰酸钾滴定法更简便和直接，并且更精确。其方法原理为：样品经湿法消化，分解有机质后，将钙元素溶解在稀酸中，将溶液直接吸入空气－乙炔火焰中原子化，并在光路中测定钙原子对特定波长谱线的吸收。1 仪器和试剂1.1 仪器原子吸收分光光度计(美国瓦里安公司，…     

竹狸人工饲养高产技术

竹狸是江南山区重要野生动物之一，它以较高的营养价值和药用价值闻名于世。竹狸没有一般野生动物的腥膻味，其肉细腻精瘦，味道鲜美。本草纲目记载：“食其肉，滋阴壮阳，固本生津。”现代医学研究表明，竹狸肉富含钙、磷、维生素 E、 B及多种氨基酸，具有促进白细胞和毛发生长，增强肝功能作用，从而对抗衰老、延缓青春产生奇效。竹狸肉在宴席上可与果子狸媲美，被列为山珍上品，是国内外正在掀起的新潮食品，已成为饭店、酒楼的抢手货。目前，内地城镇售价每 kg30元，沿海大城市每 kg80～ 100元。鲜活竹狸上市很快被一抢而空，货源缺口…     

Clearance of ovine isolates of Bordetella parapertussis from murine trachea and lungs

Thirty-six mice were inoculated intranasally with Bordetella parapertussis organisms (isolated from sheep with chronic non-progressive pneumonia) to study their deposition and clearance in the lower respiratory tract. The deposition of the organism was greater in the trachea than in the lungs. At 48 hours after inoculation, almost 100% of organisms were cleared from the trachea but only 55% of organisms were cleared from the lungs. This result correlates well with the morphological changes seen previously in the pulmonary parenchyma and airways of mice and lambs experimentally infected with this organism.     

日粮添加免疫生长促进剂C96对雏鸡若干血液指标的影响

选择１２０只１日龄ＡＡ商品健康雏鸡,随机分为４组,每组３０只。初步观察了日粮添加免疫生长促进剂Ｃ９６对血液中红细胞总数（ＲＢＣ）、比容（ＰＣＶ）、血红蛋白含量（Ｈｂ）、网织红细胞比例（ＲＣＣ）、白细胞总数（ＷＢＣ）等的影响。结果表明：肉雏鸡在１５ｄ时,日粮添加Ｃ９６为１１ｍｇ／ｋｇ,饲料的Ｃ９６组和疫苗－Ｃ９６组,与对照组和疫苗组比较,ＲＢＣ和Ｈｂ增高,ＷＢＣ显著下降,ＲＣＣ降低,ＰＣＶ无明显规律性变化;３０ｄ和４５ｄ时,添加Ｃ９６组和疫苗－Ｃ９６组的ＲＢＣ、Ｈｂ和ＰＣＶ,与对照组和疫苗组基本相近,ＷＢＣ和ＲＣＣ均比对照组和疫苗组低或明显低。但３０ｄ时疫苗组的ＷＢＣ比对照组高。整个试验期,ＲＢＣ、ＷＢＣ和ＰＣＶ随日龄的增长呈上升趋势,ＲＣＣ呈波动性下降。     

Effect of Fermentation Bed with Spent Mushroom Substrate of Pleurotus eryngii on Weaning Piglets

[Objective] The paper was to investigate effects on fermentation bed temperature,growth performance,diarrhea rate and digestive en-zyme activity of weaning piglets by using spent mushroom substrate of Pleurotus eryngii as padding.[Method] A total of 120 weaning piglets(Duroc × Landrace ×Yorkshire) with average initial body weight of(8.0 ±0.5)kg were allocated to five dietary treatments in a randomized complete block design for 42 d,each of which was replicated three times with eight piglets per replicate(half male,half female).The padding for control group was(50% sawdust +50% rice husk);experimental group Ⅰ 100% spent mushroom substrate;experimental group Ⅱ(15% sawdust +15% rice husk +70% spent mushroom substrate);experimental group Ⅲ(25% sawdust +25% rice husk +50% spent mushroom substrate);experimental group Ⅳ(35% sawdust +35% rice husk +30% spent substrate).[Result] There was no significant difference in surface temperature of fermentation bed between experimental groups and control group(P0.05).Compared with the control group,the temperature under 20 cm of fermentation bed in ex-perimental groups I,Ⅱ and Ⅲ increased significantly(P0.05).Except for experimental group Ⅳ,other three experimental groups had higher aver-age daily gain(P0.05) and experimental group Ⅰ had higher average daily feed intake(P0.05) compared to the control group.The diarrhea rate and mortality of weaning piglets in experimental groups Ⅱ,Ⅲ and Ⅳ were significantly decreased compared with the control group(P0.05).Compared with the control group,other three experimental groups had higher digestive enzyme activity in duodenal contents except for experimental group Ⅳ(P0.05).[Conclusion] Spent mushroom substrate of P.eryngii can be used as fermentation bed padding,and the optimal proportion was experimental group Ⅲ.     

DNA Barcoding:An Effective Tool for Species Identification of Lepidopteran Oak Pests

[Objective] The paper was to improve the efficiency and accuracy of early forecast of Lepidopteran oak-infesting pests.[Method] DNA barcoding technique was established for quick species identification using mitochondrial cytochrome C oxidase subunit Ⅰ(COⅠ) as the standard gene.This barcoding technique was used to amplify and sequence genomic DNA samples from eggs and pupae of 11 species of Lepidopteran pests collected from oak.[Result] The DNA barcoding standard genes of 594-708 bp were determined from eggs and pupae of Lepidopteran insects.There were differences of 0-2 bases in DNA barcode sequences between conspecific eggs and pupae,with the sequence identity of 99.7%-100%.The average content of A,T,G and C of DNA barcode sequences from Lepidopteran insects were 30.7%,38.5%,14.9% and 15.9%,respectively.The obtained DNA barcode sequences had 91.4%-100% identity and 0-8.6% difference degree with GenBank-deposited DNA barcode sequences from organisms of the genetically-closest relationship.Among them,DNA barcode sequences from egg and pupa samples of 10 Lepidopteran insects(No.1-20) had 99%-100% identity and 0-1.0% difference degree with homologous sequences in GenBank database,while the remaining samples(No.21-22) had high difference degree(8.6%) with homologous sequences.[Conclusion] The established DNA barcoding technique is an effeetive tool for species identification of Lepidopteran pests using genomic DNA from eggs and pupae of Lepidopteran insects.

Molecular cloning and expression analysis of a CXC chemokine gene from large yellow croaker Pseudosciaena crocea

In the present study, we report the cloning of a CXCL12 chemokine gene homologue from the large yellow croaker Pseudosciaena crocea (LycCXCL12). The complete cDNA of LycCXCL12 is 678 nucleotides (nt) encoding a protein of 97 amino acids (aa), with a putative molecular weight of 11.1 kDa. The deduced LycCXCL12 contains a 22-aa signal peptide and a 75-aa mature polypeptide, which possesses the typical arrangement of four cysteines as found in other known CXC chemokines. It shares 57-68% and 32-36% aa sequence identities to known CXCL12 chemokines in fish species and other vertebrates, respectively. The LycCXCL12 gene was constitutively expressed in all tissues examined although at different levels. Upon induction with poly(I:C) or inactivated trivalent bacterial vaccine, LycCXCL12 gene expression was significantly up-regulated in gills, liver, kidney, spleen and blood at 24 h after stimulation. Time course analysis using real-time PCR showed that LycCXCL12 gene expression reached peak level in spleen and kidney at 12 h or in gills at 24 h post-induction by poly(I:C), while its expression increased to the highest level in kidney at 24h or in gills and spleen at 48 h post-induction by bacterial vaccine, indicating that LycCXCL12 gene expression was differentially regulated by poly(I:C) and bacterial vaccine.
