箭舌豌豆不同器官对种子产量的贡献

研究了箭舌豌豆不同器官对种子产量的贡献，结果表明：箭舌豌豆种子利用花后光合产物较多，不同器管对箭舌豌豆种子产量的贡献是复叶〉茎〉托叶，叶片对种子产量的贡献与其所在位置有关，花后叶因离荚果较近，其光合产物易于向荚果运输。     

蓝舌病灭活疫苗免疫羊ELISA和琼扩监测比较试验

用19只绵羊（注苗前BTV琼扩和ELISA均为阴性）注射BTV灭活苗后7～139天的血清进行BTVELISA和琼扩平行试验，结果表明，注苗后7～30天11只试验丰ELISA阳性，注苗40天13只羊ELISA阳性，注苗90天以后全部试验羊只均为ELISA阳性，而琼扩试验则始终为阴性结果。     

金定鸭的性双态分化和性行为发育

金定鸭的外型分化，受自然选择和性选择的双重影响。在生长发育过程中，依羽域在适应水域环境的重要性，雌雄金定鸭的正羽都按共同的羽域顺序陆续更换生长；与此同时，一日龄外型相同的异性雏鸭，逐渐表现出性双态，包括喙色、羽色、声音、性羽、体重和行为的表型差异，以满足繁殖竞争的需要。金定鸭性行为的出现以其性双态分化为基础，而性行为的分化又是其生理成熟的前提条件。对雄鸭的观察分析结果表明，性双态分化和性行为发育速度的快慢与其生理成熟的早迟是一致的。黑色尾羽的雄鸭，体重较小，其发育速度和性成熟均快于体重较大的白喙或端白尾羽者，因此，建议将尾羽颜色、性双态分化和性行为发育速度作为雄鸭的选育指标。     

不同氮源对红檬实生苗菌根依赖性的影响

将红檬实生苗培养于改良无土基质中，接种泡囊－丛枝菌根Ｇｌｏｍｕｓｃｉｔｒｏｃｏｌｕｍ，以不接种菌根为对照，并分别施用含氮量相等的３种氮肥，即硝酸按（ＮＯ３－Ｎ）、尿素（ＮＨ２－Ｎ）和硫酸铵（ＮＨ４－Ｎ）。接种菌根１６周后，施不同氮肥的红檬实生苗均有效地感染了菌根，并促进了植株的生长。试验证明，红实生苗施硝态氮（ＮＯ３－Ｎ）使植株的菌根依赖性有明显提高。     

单克隆抗体ELISA检测犊牛粪便中冠状病毒抗原

用两株单克隆抗体混合后包被ＥＬＬＩＳＡ微孔板，加牛冠状病毒抗原，加经白陶土处理过的兔抗牛冠状病毒免血清，再加上辣根氧化物酶标记的羊抗兔ＩｇＧ抗体，加底物质显色间接ＥＬＩＳＡ检测牛冠状病毒抗原获得成功。用此方法检测细胞培养的牛冠状病毒上清液，其敏感度高出血凝试验（ＨＡ）８倍，从武汉市附近３个奶牛场采集犊牛腹泻粪便１０５份，用单抗ＥＬＩＳＡ检测牛冠状病毒抗原，共检出阳性３６份，并与血凝及血凝抑制试验，     

澳洲坚果引种试种研究初报

澳洲坚果无性系从１９７９年开始引入中国，并在南亚热带作物研究所（南亚所）试种，现已在南亚热带地区七省扩大试种达２００ｈｍ＾２，各地生长均良好，已有少量结果。南亚所植区澳洲坚果１３龄树平均单株年产已达６ｋｇ（壳果），抗寒性良好，在－４℃时仍未受害，病虫害不严重（曾发生过花序枯萎病、速衰病、茎干溃疡病），但风害严重。澳洲坚果的适生温度在１０℃－３０℃，以最冷月（１）平均气温≤１０℃，年降雨量在１０００     

Studies on efficacy and stability of a vaccine bait containing ERA strain of rabies virus propagated in a BHK-21 cell line.

In a dose response study in foxes, the median protective dose of ERA BHK21 vaccine in a blister pack bait was 10(6.0) tissue culture infective doses (TCID)/mL, while artificially aged baits with titers of 10(6.3) TCID/mL induced seroconversion in 78% of foxes. There was no significant difference in the development of antibodies in foxes receiving 1, 2 or 3 mL volumes of vaccine in the bait. When baits were exposed to the elements and fed to foxes over a 21 day period, 85% of the animals seroconverted. Age, sex and the way in which the vaccine container was contacted did not appear to be factors in the responses of these animals. Juvenile foxes, approximately six months of age, were marked more readily with the tetracycline bait marker than older animals. Approximately 25% of foxes did not appear to respond well to vaccination and the titer of the vaccine was a critical factor in producing seroconversion in these animals.     

Inheritance of myotonic discharges in American quarter horses and the relationship to hyperkalemic periodic paralysis.

Electromyography (EMG) was used to detect myotonic discharges in Quarter Horse breeding stock and to follow the results of mating horses with hyperkalemic periodic paralysis (HPP). The studies were performed on two brood mare farms. A total of six breeding stock showed myotonic discharges and 15 were nonmyotonic. Myotonic discharges were seen in five of six horses belonging to the blood line previously implicated as being predisposed to HPP. Two of these horses had shown clinical signs of HPP. Only one of 15 breeding horses unrelated to the HPP predisposed blood line showed myotonic discharges. When both parents were non-myotonic on EMG than the F1 generation (n = 6) were also nonmyotonic. When a stallion with HPP and myotonic discharges was mated to eight nonmyotonic mares over a six year period half the animals of the F1 generation (n = 25) showed myotonic discharges. When both parents showed myotonic discharges four F1 offspring were myotonic and two were nonmyotonic on EMG testing. There was no evidence of sex linkage. The results are consistent with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance. Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis and myotonic discharges on EMG may be different manifestations of the same underlying defect.
