The effects of seed moisture content (MC), gibberellic acid (GA3) concentration, chilling and priming pretreatments on the germination of common alder (Alnus glutinosa) and downey birch (Betula pubescens) seeds were examined. After treatment, the seeds were allowed to germinate for 42 days at 15 °C or 20 °C (dark)/30 °C (light). Treatment responses were similar at both temperatures and in both species. GA3 treatment of seeds in fully imbibed (FI) state for 30 days, or at the lower, target moisture content (TMC) for 30–90 days, significantly improved germination, but longer treatment periods reduced it (FI seeds) or had no effect (TMC seeds). Priming for two days improved germination in the FI seeds, but more than 4 days reduced it. Priming for up to 14 days had little effect on the germination of the TMC seeds. 相似文献

Anecdotally, during the review of CT and MRI studies of canine patients including the cranial cervical spine, authors have identified a small osseous structure between the atlas (C1) and axis (C2) with no relevant clinical signs. This structure appeared comparable to a “persistent ossiculum terminale” in humans. The aim of this retrospective, multi-center, case series study was to describe the CT and MRI features of presumed persistent ossiculum terminale in a group of dogs presented with unrelated medical conditions. Two databases (the imaging database of the teleradiology service VetCT Specialists and the clinical database of the University of Vienna) were scrutinized by different approaches. Medical records of dogs that underwent imaging investigation (CT and/or MRI) that included the atlanto-axial junction were reviewed. Data collected included signalment, sex, breed, age, presenting symptoms, and final diagnosis. Eighteen dogs met the inclusion criteria. Mean age was 85 months (6–166) and breed variation was present. A total of 20 imaging studies were evaluated: CT was performed in 17 dogs; MRI in three dogs; two dogs had both MRI and CT performed. In all cases the presence of at least one small osseous body on the cranial aspect of the odontoid process compatible with a persistent ossiculum terminale was identified as a possible incidental finding without any overt clinical implications. Findings indicated that a small osseous body on the cranial aspect of the odontoid process (presumed persistent ossiculum terminale) in CT and MRI studies may be present in dogs with no clinical signs of neurologic disease. 相似文献

Tracking shifts in Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) larval habitat suitability on the Northeast U.S. Continental Shelf 下载免费PDF全文

Climate change has altered the oceanographic environment and subsequently the habitats of marine species. Fish and invertebrate populations’ responses to habitat include movement with latitude and depth to remain within their fundamental niches. The northwest Atlantic mackerel (Scomber scombrus) population has fluctuated over the last century due in part to changes in the environment. We used species distribution models to understand the influence of the physical (temperature) and biological (zooplankton) environment on mackerel larval abundance, and how such relations have determined larval habitat suitability in the Northeast U.S. Shelf. Atlantic mackerel larval presence and abundance correlated with sea temperature and copepod abundances, suggesting that larval survival may be sensitive to specific temperatures and zooplankton prey. Predicted abundances were spatially interpolated to estimate Atlantic mackerel larval suitable habitat. Metrics for habitat quality indicate that the Mid‐Atlantic Bight has become less suitable over time. Since the 1970s, the proportion of Northeast U.S. Shelf suitable habitat located in the Mid‐Atlantic Bight has decreased, as southern New England and the western Gulf of Maine regions have become more suitable. Habitat suitability within the Northeast U.S. Shelf has shifted northeast: from the Mid‐Atlantic Bight‐southern New England border towards the northeast portion of southern New England. While total Northeast U.S. Shelf habitat suitability has decreased since the 1970s, the decline in the time series trend was not statistically significant. Thus, while select ecoregions have decreased in habitat suitability, larval habitat does not appear to be the only contributor to decreases in the U.S. Atlantic mackerel contingent. 相似文献
