肉种鸽繁殖性能低下的原因与对策

在进行肉鸽强制配对过程中，由于饲养人员缺乏基本的雌雄鉴别方法，将两只雄鸽配在一起，配对后长时间不见产蛋。这种情况在种鸽初次配对时出现较多。种鸽配对后要做好产蛋记录，一般配对后7～10天就会产蛋，如超过1月仍未见产蛋，要进行重新鉴定性别，重新配对。肉鸽性成熟后雌雄鉴别并不困难，主要通过性行为表现和耻骨特征来进行区分。雄鸽进入发情期后发情明显，追逐雌鸽，发出“咕咕”的叫声，并向雌鸽频频点头示爱。触摸耻骨厚硬，两耻骨间距窄或闭合，耻骨到胸骨末端距离窄，表明腹部容积很小。雌鸽发情不明显，受到雄鸽追逐，无叫声，到处躲藏，耻骨薄软，两耻骨间距宽，

四种牛分枝杆菌特异性蛋白融合表达及在牛结核病诊断中的临床应用

以原核表达的MPB70-MPB83-CFP10-ESAT-6融合蛋白作为诊断抗原,建立牛结核病抗体检测间接ELISA(iELISA)。该iELISA与导致常见牛病的非相关抗原无交叉反应。用iELISA检测90份健康牛血清,确定样本阴阳性临界值(S/P)为0.17。与商品化胶体金试剂条(ICG)平行检测150份临床奶牛血清样本,结果与ICG的符合率为93.33%(140/150)。以结核菌素皮内试验(TST)为参考方法,检测了华中地区四个奶牛场的560头中国荷斯坦奶牛和90份进口奶牛结核阴性血清,结果iELISA与TST的总符合率为87.32%(489/560)。对其中22头奶牛进行鼻拭子分菌检验,4头分菌阳性奶牛的血清抗体检测也为阳性,iELISA与细菌培养的总符合率为77.27%(17/22)。以TST为参考方法,iELISA的敏感性和特异性分别为72.37%和89.67%。     

2015年非洲口蹄疫流行状况与分析

2015年,非洲共有29个国家向世界动物卫生组织（OIE）通报发生771起口蹄疫疫情,包括A、O、SAT 1、SAT 2和SAT 3等5种血清型。O型和SAT 2型是非洲地区的主要流行血清型;病毒多通过野生动物散播;东非是非洲的主要疫区;感染家畜以牛为主。2015年非洲的口蹄疫流行状况和特点提示：该地区的口蹄疫防控任务十分艰巨,短期难以控制或根除;南非型口蹄疫病毒通过野生动物迁徙或非法动物产品贸易等途径向外扩散的风险依然存在,需提高警惕。     

温湿度对亚洲小车蝗飞行能力及主要能源物质利用的影响

本研究采用昆虫飞行数据微机采集系统(飞行磨)吊飞方法,测定了温、湿度对10日龄亚洲小车蝗(Oedaleus asiaticus)雌雄成虫的飞行能力及主要能源物质利用的影响。结果表明,在环境温度为28℃、相对湿度(RH)为60%时,10日龄亚洲小车蝗成虫表现出最优的飞行能力,单个个体的最大飞行时间、最大飞行距离和最大飞行速度分别可达1.62h、9.87 km和2.03 km·h~(-1)。在温度16℃以下或28℃以上,其飞行能力明显降低。在40%~80%RH时,成虫均能进行正常的飞行活动。环境温、湿度会显著影响亚洲小车蝗成虫飞行能源物质的消耗情况(P0.05)。在最适的温、湿度条件下,小车蝗飞行所需的能源物质(甘油三酯)最少,其飞行单位距离消耗的甘油三酯也最低,能源利用效率最高。较高或较低的温、湿度条件,能源物质的消耗都显著高于最适条件。飞行能源物质利用效率的不同是导致其在不同温、湿度下飞行能力产生差异的主要原因之一。     

Effects of partial removal of cytoplasmic lipid on survival of vitrified germinal vesicle stage pig oocytes

This study was designed to investigate whether the partial removal of cytoplasmic lipid from immature pig oocytes prior to vitrification had any positive effects on subsequent maturation, fertilization and early development. Oocytes at the germinal vesicle stage were partially freed from cumulus cells and centrifuged, and then polarized cytoplasmic lipid was removed by micromanipulation. When cultured for 44-48 h, significantly fewer of the centrifuged oocytes reached metaphase II (M-II) than did the non-centrifuged oocytes (approximately 53% vs approximately 68%, respectively); however, no further reduction in the M-II rate was observed when centrifuged oocytes were then delipated prior to culture (approximately 47%). To evaluate their sensitivity to the equilibration and vitrification solutions containing ethylene glycol, non-centrifuged, centrifuged, and delipated oocytes were cultured continuously for several minutes in those solutions, then washed and cultured further; no significant differences in the M-II rates (approximately 20-27%) were observed among the three treatment groups. When oocytes were vitrified and then warmed, significantly more delipated oocytes reached M-II in culture (approximately 15%) than did the non-delipated oocytes, whether centrifuged or not (approximately 4% in each group). When delipated, vitrified and matured oocytes were microsurgically injected with frozen-thawed spermatozoa, approximately 39% were activated and male pronucleus formation was observed in approximately 40% of activated oocytes; none developed beyond the 4-cell stage. These results show that maturation in vitro of vitrified pig oocytes can be promoted by partial removal of cytoplasmic lipid prior to vitrification and that the vitrified oocytes can be fertilized, although the embryonic development obtained in this study was limited.     

丙谷胺对产蛋鸡摄食行为及内分泌的影响

选用35周龄伊莎蛋鸡8只,分别安装慢性颈静脉血管插管.实验采用自身对照法,对照期饲喂基础日粮,丙谷胺期在喂料前填喂丙谷胺.应用摄食行为计算机监测系统(FIDAS系统)记录各个实验期产蛋鸡喂料后4h内的采食行为数据,并测定有关血液生化指标.结果显示,实验期(填喂丙谷胺后)与对照期相比较,产蛋鸡午前(8:00～12:00)与午后(13:00～17:00)4 h内摄食量分别增加27.69%与30.41%(P＜0.05),摄食时间分别降低15.67%与3.75%,摄食餐数分别增加12.32%与27.2%(P＜0.05);血糖水平分别降低5.44%与18.03%(P＜0.01),瘦素水平分别升高2.59%与7.19%,胰岛素水平分别升高33.09%(P＜0.05)与24.5%(P＜0.05).提示丙谷胺能够促进蛋鸡摄食,并影响有关内分泌激素的水平.

结缕草种子打破休眠过程呼吸途径的研究

采用呼吸抑制剂测定了结缕草休眠与打破休眠种子在发芽过程中的各个呼吸代谢途径－糖酵解呼吸途径（ＥＭＰ）、三羧酸循环呼吸途径（ＴＣＡ）、磷酸戊糖呼吸途径（ＰＰＰ）的呼吸速率及其占总呼吸速率的比例，结果表明，休眠种子的总呼吸速率显著低于打破休眠种子的总呼吸速率，造成这种差异的原因是磷酸戊糖途径及三羧酸循环途径的呼吸速率低，这是休眠结缕草种子不能发芽的原因之一。
