Optimizing the Conditions for In Vitro Maturation and Artificial Activation of Sika Deer (Cervus nippon hortulorum) Oocytes

With the goal of establishing experimental protocols for cloning sika deer, various conditions for in vitro maturation (IVM) and artificial activation of sika deer oocytes were examined. In vitro maturation was evaluated in seven different culture media. The highest rate of oocyte maturation was 75.4% in 10 μg/ml follicle‐stimulating hormone (FSH), 1 μg/ml LH, 0.2 mm cysteamine and 50 ng/ml epidermal growth factor (EGF) after 24 h of IVM. The efficiency after 24 h of IVM did not differ significantly (p > 0.05) from that observed after 20 h. Cysteamine (0.2 mm ) significantly increased the maturation rates after 20 h (from 59.1% to 67.2%, p < 0.05) and after 24 h (from 63.2% to 71.6%, p < 0.05) of IVM. The IVM rates of oocytes collected during the oestrous season (75.4%) and the anoestrous season (23.3%) were significantly different at 24 h. The 20 μg/ml FSH, 2 μg/ml LH, 0.4 mm cysteamine and 100 ng/ml EGF significantly increased the maturation rates (from 23.3% to 54.2%, p < 0.01) at 24 h during the anoestrous season. For the activation experiments, the most effective method was chemical activation [ionomycin + 6‐dimethylaminopurine (6‐DMAP)], which promoted the development of sika deer oocytes to the blastocyst stage (32.4%). Our results indicate that in vitro matured sika deer oocytes are good candidates for parthenogenetic activation and that chemical treatment is needed for relatively efficient activation of the oocytes. These optimized conditions for IVM and parthenogenetic activation may be useful for efforts to restore populations of the endangered sika deer using the somatic cell nuclear transfer technique.

绵羊多胎性状基因调控研究进展

绵羊的繁殖性状受多基因控制，本文综述了现已发现并证明的主基因和QTL住点，如FecB基因、FecX基因、FecX2基因、BMP15(形态发生蛋白15)突变、Q249R突变及Thoka基因等。通过分析这些基因或QTL位点的作用、遗传方式、遗传效应及基因定位，旨在为探讨绵羊多胎性状的基因调控规律提供理论依据。     

加强自身卫生防护防止传播动物疫病

随着我国畜牧养殖业的不断发展，动物防疫检疫人员在依法严格把关、确保动物及其产品检疫质量、保护人民身体健康、促进养殖业健康发展等方面，做出了积极努力和贡献。但动物防疫检疫人员作为与各种动物及其产品的密切接触者，其自身对消毒防护措施的重视程度，与动物疫病的发生和流行有着一定的关系。     

类风湿关节炎的蜂疗医治法

类风湿关节炎多为对称性，发病原因不明，多发于20-45岁，女性多于男性。现代医学认为此病与感染、自身免疫下降、遗传因素、内分泌失调等有关，而寒冷和潮湿是诱发本病的重要因素。     

扎龙国家级自然保护区水鸟群落季节性变化调查

对扎龙湿地的水鸟群落进行资源调查,共记录水禽52种,隶属于5目11科。其中古北界种类42种（占82％）,广布种类10种（占18％）,东洋界种类无记录。对结果进行分析发现：扎龙自然保护区水鸟群落种类和数量随着迁徙活动呈现了明显的季节性变化。春季水鸟迁徙时间集中,种群数量变化剧烈,有高峰期;秋季水鸟迁徙时间分散,种群数量变化缓和,无明显的高峰期。

江苏省扬泰地区犬细小病毒分子流行病学调查

犬细小病毒（CPV）自1978年被首次分离到以来,已由CPV-2演化出CPV-2a、CPV-2b和CPV-2c 3种新抗原型。为了解江苏省扬泰地区的CPV分子特征和基因型,2015年5月至2016年12月在扬州和泰州地区宠物医院,根据患病犬临床症状以及CPV快速检测试纸条初步诊断结果,收集可疑病例的肛门棉拭子或粪便作为检测样品,扩增样本中CPV的VP2基因片段并对扩增产物进行测序和分析。结果显示：在48份样品中,4份被鉴定为CPV-2型,24份被鉴定为CPV-2a型,20份被鉴定为CPV-2b型,并未发现CPV-2c型。结果表明,该期间CPV-2a 型与CPV-2b型成为扬泰州地区的优势基因型,需开展这些新基因型的深入研究和防控。     

Efficacy of different dosages of ivermectin injectable against the Hypoderma spp. in yaks

A chemotherapy trial was conducted to determine the lowest dosage of injectable preparation of ivermectin against Hypoderma spp. infestation in yaks in Tibetan areas in Tianzhu county, Gansu province, in northwest of China. One hundred and sixty yaks were randomly divided into four groups of 40 yaks for the trial. The first three groups were treated by subcutaneous injection in the neck with 0.1% ivermectin (respectively, 1, 5, 10 microg/kg body weight). The fourth group was not treated and considered as control group. All the experiments were performed in November 2000 and the animals were examined for the presence of warbles in the next March and May. The results indicated that there was no warbles found on the back of treated animal while third stage larvae were palpated on back of some of the yaks in control group. It is concluded that dosage of 1 microg/kg ivermectin injectable was sufficient to kill or stop development of larvae of Hypoderma spp. in naturally infected yaks if administrated in November.
