内源乙烯与1-MCP互作对番茄成熟和细胞壁物质代谢的影响

【目的】探讨内源乙烯与1-MCP的相互作用对贮藏过程中番茄成熟和细胞壁代谢的影响。【方法】将破色期番茄("佛罗里达47")果实分为4组,其中2组经低压低氧(8kPa,1.7kPaO2)处理6h后,分别立即使用50μg/L液态1-MCP(HH+1-MCP)或去离子水(HH)浸泡1min;另外2组未经HH处理的番茄果实,也分别使用50μg/L1-MCP(1-MCP)或去离子水(对照)浸泡1min,测定处理后果实在贮藏(20℃)过程中成熟相关生理指标及细胞壁组分的变化。【结果】番茄果实经HH处理后,内源乙烯含量(IEC)急剧降低至对照水平的75.6%,且对1-MCP的反应敏感性有所提高。HH+1-MCP处理显著抑制了果实硬度的下降,其硬度值在贮藏第4～16天中,平均分别较对照和1-MCP处理高29.8%和15.6%;HH+1-MCP处理果实的呼吸和乙烯峰出现时间均较对照推迟4d,较1-MCP处理推迟2d,但对峰值影响未达到显著水平;与1-MCP处理相比,HH+1-MCP处理对多聚半乳糖醛酸酶(PG)、果胶甲脂酶(PME)、α-半乳糖苷酶(α-Gal)、β-半乳糖苷酶(β-Gal)等细胞壁降解酶活性的变化影响较大,对PG的影响尤为明显;HH+1-MCP处理还显著地抑制了番茄果实贮藏期水溶性和CDTA溶性糖醛酸(UA)含量的增加,其水溶性UA含量在贮藏的第6～12天平均值分别较对照和1-MCP处理低37.3%和21.9%,其CDTA溶性UA含量在贮藏的第6～12天平均值分别较1-MCP处理果实低31.4%和20.5%;凝胶渗透色谱分析结果显示,1-MCP和HH+1-MCP处理延缓了番茄果实多聚糖醛酸分子的降解过程,且后者效果更为明显。此外,本试验HH处理各项测定指标与对照无显著差异。【结论】内源乙烯含量是调节1-MCP反应能力的重要因素,解释了不同跃变型果实在成熟起始后对1-MCP反应敏感性差异的原因。     

Some observations on the population and natal patterns among purebred dogs in Malaysia

The results of a study of 28, 220 birth registration and 773 import records between 1980 and 1982 of the Malaysian Kennel Association are reported. The German Shepherd Dog was by far the most common breed followed by the Dobermann, Dachshund and Boxer. Most breeds made up only a small percentage of birth registrations. No distinct seasonal distribution of whelping was evident among the purebred litters studied. Mean litter size was 4–7 puppies per litter with larger breeds tending to produce larger litters. A sex ratio of 51 males per 100 births was computed. There was a steady decline in the number of imported dogs.     

应用放射性磷矿粉进行土壤性质对植物吸收磷素的影响的研究

用P³²标记的磷肥已在磷素营养的研究中得到广泛的应用,并且已经有了不少的综合性总结^[1,2,3]。但是,应用放射性磷矿粉来研究其肥效的报告,则还极为有限。     

Development of real-time onion disease monitoring system using image acquisition

In this study, real-time disease monitoring was conducted on onion which is the most representative crop in Republic of Korea, using an image acquisition system newly developed for the mobile measurement of phenotype. The purpose of this study was to improve the accuracy of prediction of disease and state variables by processing images acquired from monitoring. The image acquisition system was consisted of two parts, a motorized driving system and a PTZ (pan, tilt and zoom) camera to take images of the plants. The acquired images were processed as follows. Noise was removed through an image filter and RGB (red, green and blue) colors were converted to HSV (hue, saturation and value), which enabled thresholding of areas with different colors and properties for image binarization by comparing the color of onion leaf with ambient areas. Four objects with the most significant browning in the onion leaf to the naked eye were selected as the samples for data acquired. The thresholding method with image processing was found to be superior to the naked eye in identifying accurate disease areas. In addition, it was found that the incidence of disease was different in each disease area ratio. As a result, the use of image acquisition system in image processing analysis will enable more prompt detection of any changes in the onion and monitoring of disease outbreaks during the crop lifecycle.     

Post-Death Cloning of Endangered Jeju Black Cattle (Korean Native Cattle): Fertility and Serum Chemistry in a Cloned Bull and Cow and Their Offspring

To preserve Jeju black cattle (JBC; endangered native Korean cattle), a pair of cattle, namely a post-death cloned JBC bull and cow, were produced by somatic cell nuclear transfer (SCNT) in a previous study. In the present study, we examined the in vitro fertilization and reproductive potentials of these post-death cloned animals. Sperm motility, in vitro fertilization and developmental capacity were examined in a post-death cloned bull (Heuk Oll Dolee) and an extinct nuclear donor bull (BK94-13). We assessed reproductive ability in another post-death cloned cow (Heuk Woo Sunee) using cloned sperm for artificial insemination (AI). There were no differences in sperm motility or developmental potential of in vitro fertilized embryos between the post-death cloned bull and its extinct nuclear donor bull; however, the embryo development ratio was slightly higher in the cloned sperm group than in the nuclear donor sperm group. After one attempt at AI, the post-death cloned JBC cow became pregnant, and gestation proceeded normally until day 287. From this post-death cloned sire and dam, a JBC male calf (Heuk Woo Dolee) was delivered naturally (weight, 25 kg). The genetic paternity/maternity of the cloned JBC bull and cow with regard to their offspring was confirmed using International Society for Animal Genetics standard microsatellite markers. Presently, Heuk Woo Dolee is 5 months of age and growing normally. In addition, there were no significant differences in blood chemistry among the post-death cloned JBC bull, the cow, their offspring and cattle bred by AI. This is the first report showing that a pair of cattle, namely, a post-death cloned JBC bull and cow, had normal fertility. Therefore, SCNT can be used effectively to increase the population of endangered JBC.     

激活的绢云母：一种使水生环境中铯衰减的高效天然粘土物质)

Sericite is mica-based natural clay that is annealed at 800 ℃ for 4 h, followed by acid activation using 3.0 mol L-1HCl at 100℃. The interaction of cesium(I), Cs(I), with sericite could provide useful data for the study of soil erosion or mass water movement utilizing the natural radioactive Cs. In this study sericite and activated sericite were used to assess their suitability in the attenuation of Cs from the aquatic environment under both batch and column experiments. The surface morphological studies indicated that a disordered and heterogeneous surface structure was exhibited by the activated sericite, whereas the native sericite exhibited a compact and layered structure. The Brunauer-Emmett-Teller(BET) specific surface area results indicated a significant increase in the surface area due to the activation of sericite. The batch reactor data collected for various parametric studies revealed that an increase in p H(from 2.0 to 8.0) and sorbate concentration(from 10.0 to 100.0 mg L-1) apparently favored the attenuation of Cs(I). The timedependent sorption data revealed that Cs(I) uptake was very rapid, and it achieved its saturation value within just 50 min of contact.The kinetic modeling studies indicated that the uptake of Cs(I) followed a pseudo-second-order rate equation; hence, the attenuation capacity of these solids for Cs(I) was estimated to be 0.858 and 4.353 mg g-1for sericite and activated sericite solids, respectively.The adsorption isotherm modeling data showed a reasonably good applicability of the Freundlich model than the Langmuir model.The effect of background electrolyte concentrations(0.001 to 0.1 mol L-1) of Mg(NO3)2indicated that the presence of this electrolyte could not significantly affect the percent removal of Cs(I) by activated sericite. Furthermore, the fixed-bed column reactor operations were performed to obtain the breakthrough data, which were fitted well to the Thomas non-linear equation. Therefore, the loading capacity of Cs(I) was estimated to be 1.585 mg g-1at the initial influent Cs(I) concentration of 30.0 mg L-1at p H 5.0.     

Pharmacokinetics of marbofloxacin after intravenous and intramuscular administration in Hanwoo,Korean native cattle

Pharmacokinetic (PK) parameters of marbofloxacin (MRFX) in Korean cattle, Hanwoo, were determined following its intravenous (i.v.) or intramuscular (i.m.) administration at a dose of 2 mg/kg. Area under the curve (AUC_{0–24 hr}), half-life (t_1/2) and total body clearance (CL_B) of i.v. MRFX were 6.87 hr∙µg/ml, 2.44 hr and 0.29 l/kg∙hr, respectively, and the corresponding values for i.m. administration of MRFX were 5.07 hr∙µg/ml, 2.44 hr and 0.39 l/kg∙hr. The suggested optimal doses of MRFX in Hanwoo cattle, calculated by integration of PK data obtained in the present study and previously reported minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) for MRFX against susceptible (MIC ≤1 µg/ml) and intermediate (MIC ≤2 µg/ml) pathogenic bacteria, were 2.1 and 4.2 mg/kg/day by i.v. route and 3.9 and 7.8 mg/kg/day by i.m. route.
