呼伦贝尔沙化草地围封效应及生物多样性变化研究

2004年,在内蒙古呼伦贝尔沙化草地,测定围封不同年限(1、4、7、11、17年)沙化草地群落的特征值,分析围栏封育对沙化草地植被特征及生物多样性变化的影响。植被的自然恢复从一年生植物的侵入开始,差巴嘎蒿(Artemisia halodendron Turcz.ex Bess.)等重要值在围封第7、11和17年分别为第4年的1.57、1.78和1.37;一年生植物呈减少趋势,沙米(Agriophylluns arenarium Bieb.)在围封第11年完全消失。植被盖度平均增长4.6倍,草层高度平均增高75.3%。围封17和11年、1和4年,群落相似系数最大,分别为0.9630和0.7143。结果表明:沙化草地围封后,由于干扰源解除,群落组成发生了规律性变化,植物群落逐渐由不稳定的一年生植被向次稳定的灌丛化植被和相对稳定的干草原植被过渡,随着围封年限的增加,群落结构逐渐趋于合理,物种丰富度、多样性和群落均匀性不断增大,但沙化草地围封后的植被近自然恢复也是一个漫长的系统修复与竞争过程。呼伦贝尔沙化草地经过17年的围封,植被系统仍十分脆弱,群落中一年生植物仍占有较大比例,受干扰后极易发生再度沙化。

Nuclear Replacement of In Vitro‐Matured Porcine Oocytes by a Serial Centrifugation and Fusion Method

The objective of the present study was to establish a method for nuclear replacement in metaphase‐II (M‐II) stage porcine oocytes. Karyoplasts containing M‐II chromosomes (K) and cytoplasts without chromosomes (C) were produced from in vitro‐matured oocytes by a serial centrifugation method. The oocytes were then reconstructed by fusion of one karyoplast with 1, 2, 3 or 4 cytoplasts (K + 1C, K + 2C, K + 3C and K + 4C, respectively). Reconstructed oocytes, karyoplasts without fusion of any cytoplast (K) and zona‐free M‐II oocytes (control) were used for experiments. The rates of female pronucleus formation after parthenogenetic activation in all groups of reconstructed oocytes (58.2–77.4%) were not different from those of the K and control groups (58.2% and 66.0%, respectively). In vitro fertilization was carried out to assay the fertilization ability and subsequent embryonic development of the reconstructed oocytes. The cytoplast : karyoplast ratio did not affect the fertilization status (penetration and male pronuclear formation rates) of the oocytes. A significantly high monospermy rate was found in K oocytes (p < 0.05, 61.6%) compared with the other groups (18.2–32.8%). Blastocyst formation rates increased significantly as the number of the cytoplasts fused with karyoplasts increased (p < 0.05, 0.0–15.3%). The blastocyst rate in the K + 4C group (15.3%) was comparable with that of the control (17.8%). Total cell numbers in both the K + 3C and K + 4C groups (16.0 and 15.3 cells, respectively) were comparable with that of the control (26.2 cells). Our results demonstrate that a serial centrifugation and fusion (Centri‐Fusion) is an effective method for producing M‐II chromosome transferred oocytes with normal fertilization ability and in vitro development. It is suggested that the number of cytoplasts fused with a karyoplast plays a critical role in embryonic development.     

Biomechanical Comparison of the Trocar Tip Point and the Hollow Ground Tip Point for Smooth External Skeletal Fixation Pins

Objective —To compare the insertional characteristics of external fixator pins with hollow ground (HG), modified HG, and trocar (T) points.
Study Design —An acute, in vitro biomechanical evaluation.
Sample Population—Thirteen radii from canine cadavers.
Methods —A total of 16 T-tipped and 16 HG-tipped pins were inserted into 8 canine radii. Ten pins of each modification of the HG tip (length of the cutting edge reduced by 0.127 mm and 0.254 mm, respectively) were inserted into another five radii. All pins were inserted with low-speed power drilling and 80 N drilling load. Differences between peak tip temperature, drilling energy, and pullout force were determined for each pin type at both diaphyseal and metaphyseal locations.
Results —HG-tipped pins showed a 40% lower tip temperature in diaphyseal bone, a 25% reduction in drilling energy in diaphyseal bone, and a reduction of pullout force in both diaphyseal (65%) and metaphyseal (50%) bone compared with T-tipped pins. HG 0.254-mm pins generated higher tip temperatures and had greater pullout than HG pins in diaphyseal bone.
Conclusions —The HG tip was a more efficient design; however, the reduction in pullout force suggests that, because a better hole was drilled, radial preload is reduced. Reduction of the cutting edge by 0.254 mm increased the pullout force but also increased the temperatures.
Clinical Relevance —Thermal and microstructural damage are reduced by the HG tip, but pin-bone interface stability is also compromised. The use of a tip with 0.254 mm reduction in the cutting edge may optimize the biological and mechanical factors at the pin-bone interface.     

不同强度干旱胁迫对红砂种子萌发的影响

采用培养皿纸上发芽床实验设计,设置PEG6000 0(CK)、25 g/L、50 g/L、75 g/L、100 g/L、125 g/L、150g/L、200 g/L、250 g/L、300g/L 10个干旱胁迫处理,NaCl 0(CK)、50 mmol/L 2个处理,研究了不同干旱胁迫条件下红砂种子的萌发率、萌发势、萌发指数、活力指数等指标的变化特点。结果表明,PEG6000浓度低于75 g/L时萌发率随PEG6000浓度升高有上升的趋势,但高于125 g/L时萌发率随着PEG6000浓度的升高而下降,直至0;种子能够萌发的最高PEG6000浓度为200 g/L。干旱胁迫对种子胚芽生长有抑制作用,但轻度干旱可促进初生根生长。PEG6000浓度高于100时可以显著延缓种子的初始发芽时间,降低种子的发芽势。NaCl处理对红砂种子萌发率无显著影响,但对萌发指数、萌发势、和活力指数均有显著影响。     

依普黄酮对笼养蛋鸡骨质疏松症骨组织病理变化的影响

本试验选用200只24周龄健康海蓝褐蛋鸡,随机分为4组:对照组(基础日粮中含钙3.55%)、低钙组(日粮含钙1.27%)、试验Ⅰ组(8mg依普黄酮/kg低钙日粮)和试验Ⅱ组(20mg依普黄酮/kg低钙日粮),观察依普黄酮对笼养蛋鸡骨质疏松症骨组织病理变化的影响。结果显示,与低钙组相比,试验Ⅰ、Ⅱ组骨髓腔面积分别显著下降7.81%(P0.05)和10.26%(P0.05),骨皮质平均厚度分别显著升高23.78(P0.05)和27.60(P0.05),并且骨小梁增厚、变密,骨陷窝变浅,成骨细胞增多,破骨细胞减少。结果表明,低钙日粮中添加依普黄酮能显著改善蛋鸡骨质疏松症的临床症状,与其促进成骨细胞生成,抑制破骨细胞活性,使其骨量增加,骨结构得到改善密切相关。

为了保证足够的乳酸菌在动物肠道中发挥益生作用,试验以海藻酸钠、脱脂奶粉、乳糖为壁材,采用挤压包埋和冷冻干燥结合的方法对植物乳杆菌进行微胶囊化研究。通过正交试验找到最佳的微胶囊化条件及载体的添加量。结果表明,海藻酸钠浓度为3％,脱脂奶粉浓度为4％,乳糖浓度为6％,CaCl₂浓度为2％时,制备的微胶囊中活菌数最高,达到7.67×10¹⁰ CFU/g,且产品具有耐酸性。     

DNA甲基化酶抑制剂5-Aza-CdR对多能基因及甲基化相关基因在徒手克隆胚胎中表达模式的影响

本试验通过实时荧光定量PCR方法对多能基因Oct4和Nanog及DNA甲基化相关基因Dnmt1和Tets在徒手克隆（handmade cloning,HMC）胚胎中的表达模式进行初步研究,并探讨5-Aza-CdR处理重构胚对这些基因表达模式的影响。结果显示,Oct4、Nanog和Tet3的表达在2细胞时期达到顶峰,Dnmt1和Tet2基因的表达随HMC胚胎发育而下降,而Tet1基因随HMC胚胎发育表达上升。使用5-Aza-CdR处理重构胚没有改变Oct4、Tet1和Tet3基因的表达模式,使Nanog基因在胚胎发育初期表达增加,Dnmt1和Tet2基因在胚胎发育初期表达降低。研究初步确立了Oct4、Nanog、Dnmt1和Tets基因在HMC胚胎的表达模式,5-Aza-CdR对重构胚的处理可对HMC胚胎的甲基化模式产生影响。

日粮添加酵母硒对蛋鸡血清生化指标的影响

本试验在蛋鸡日粮中添加不同浓度的酵母硒,测定蛋鸡血清生化指标,旨在探究酵母硒对蛋鸡肝脏功能的影响。结果表明:日粮添加酵母硒对蛋鸡血清谷草转氨酶(Aspartate aminotransferase,AST)、谷丙转氨酶(Alanine aminotransferase,ALT)、总胆红素(Total bilirubin,TBIL)无显著影响;日粮添加酵母硒显著降低了血清总胆固醇(Total cholesterol,TC)含量,其中0.80 mg/kg的酵母硒效果最好,第28天比对照组下降了38.06%。认为日粮添加酵母硒没有对蛋鸡肝脏功能产生不良影响,且有保护心血管的作用。
