北美落基山自然风光与动植物纪事

北美洲落基山脉纵贯加拿大西南和美国西北部,跨越北极带、寒带和温带高原气候带,是全球著名山脉之一。有奇特的高原地貌、世界最大的冰原、众多冰河、瀑布、高原湖泊、温泉及间歇喷泉等自然景观,以及多种植被、特有动物,每年吸引来自世界各地的众多游客。美国、加拿大政府和联合国教科文组织重视环保,在落基山脉建立众多国家公园,其中有7处划定为《世界遗产目录》《世界遗产公园》。国家公园重视环保,订立各种保育措施,值得借鉴。     

Effects of stocking density on production and economics of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) polyculture in periphyton-based systems

The present research investigated the effect of stocking density on pond (75 m², depth 1.2 m) production of Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and freshwater prawn (Macrobrachium rosenbergii) stocked at a fixed 3:1 tilapia:prawn ratio. Three stocking densities were tried in triplicate: 20 000 ha⁻¹ (treatment TP‐20), 30 000 ha⁻¹ (TP‐30) and 40 000 ha⁻¹ (TP‐40). The ponds were provided with bamboo as substrate for periphyton development. Bamboo poles (mean diameter 5.5 cm and 5.0 poles m⁻²) were posted vertically into pond bottoms, resulting in 60% additional substrate area in each pond. On average, 43 genera of algae and 17 genera of zooplankton were identified from pond water, whereas 42 genera of algae and six genera of microfauna were attached to bamboo substrates. No differences were observed between treatments in the ash‐free dry matter (AFDM), chlorophyll a and phaeophytin a content of periphyton (P>0.05). Survival of tilapia and prawn and individual weight gain of tilapia were lower (P<0.05) in treatment TP‐40. The net yields were higher (P<0.05) in treatments TP‐30 (2209 and 163 kg ha⁻¹ 105 day⁻¹ of tilapia and prawn respectively) and TP‐40 (2162 and 141 kg ha⁻¹ of tilapia and prawn respectively) than in treatment TP‐20 (1505 and 136 kg ha⁻¹ of tilapia and prawn respectively). The net tilapia yields were quadratic correlated (R²=0.92) with fish stocking density. The cost–benefit analysis shows that the net profit margin was highest in treatment TP‐30 (69%), followed by TP‐20 (50%) and TP‐40 (44%).     

Effect of γ (Gamma)-radiation on the physico-mechanical properties of grafted jute fabric reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites

The bleached jute fabric (BJF) reinforced polypropylene (PP) composites with various contents of acrylic acid (AA)-treated BJF and un-AA-treated BJF were fabricated by compression moulding method at 190 °C. The AA-grafted BJF reinforced PP composites were then irradiated by γ-ray at various doses. The mechanical properties of neat PP (N-P), ungrafted-BJF and PP composites (UG-BJFPC), AA-grafted-BJF and PP composites (AA-BJFPC) and γ-ray cum AA-grafted-BJF and PP composites (γAA-BJFPC) show maximum tensile strength (TS) of 30, 46, 47 and 51 MPa, maximum flexural strength (FS) of 34, 49, 50 and 54 MPa and maximum Young’s modulus (E) of 280, 428, 436, and 680 MPa, respectively. The increase of TS, FS and E from UG-BJFPC are 2 %, 2 %, and 2 % for AA-BJFPC and 11 %, 10 % and 59 % for γAA-BJFPC. The TS, FS and E are found to increase with radiation dose up to 500Krad and then decrease. The water absorption (WA) for UG-BJFPC, AA-BJFPC and γAA-BJFPC is respectively about 14, 10 and 9 %, indicating a gradual development of hydrophobic character of the composites first by AA-treatment and then by γ-ray-treatment. AA treatment on jute fabric and gamma irradiation on composite result in significant change of morphology of the jute fabric composites surface and better mechanical bonding between fabric and polymer matrix, as a result improved mechanical properties are found.     

紫金县茶园土壤养分状况分析与评价

通过调查分析广东省紫金县不同茶园土壤养分状况,为茶园土壤施肥管理及茶叶提质增效提供科学依据。对紫金县9个产茶乡镇的不同茶园79 个土壤和67个茶青进行了取样,分别采集茶园0～20 cm土壤和一芽二叶的茶青样品。检测土壤pH、有机质、全N、有效P、速效K、有效Ca、有效Mg、有效S含量及微量元素Cu、Fe、Zn、Mn和B有效态含量等土壤养分指标,同时利用高效液相色谱系统定量测定茶青中的氨基酸和茶多酚含量。结果表明:紫金县茶园土壤全部呈酸性,pH值平均为4.84,变异系数为12.94%;有机质含量整体较高,平均为22.23 g/kg,

新生仔猪对外源抗体的吸收及乳糖对其吸收的影响

选择48头自然分娩、3～4胎、初生重1.25～1.5kg 的大白猪(♂)×内蒙黑猪(♀)杂交F1 代新生仔猪参试。其中24头于出生后的6小时之内用人工瓶哺的方法分别饲喂0(对照组)、1、2、3、4、8g的外源PIgG ;另外24头出生后的18小时之内分别饲喂不同含量的乳糖 ,然后开始饲喂一定浓度的外源PIgG ,分别研究了生新仔猪对外源PIgG吸收及乳糖对其吸收的影响。研究结果表明 ,仔猪出生后没有吸吮初乳之前其血清中的IgG含量甚微 ,为(0.12±0.058)mg/ml;随着饲喂浓度的增加新生仔猪对外源PIgG的吸收也增加(P<0.05) ,到出生后12小时 ,仔猪血清中的IgG含量达到峰值 ,随后逐渐下降 ,下降趋势与自然哺乳仔猪血清IgG的消长规律相似。若仔猪出生后仅喂给不含PIgG的人工初乳 ,则仔猪血清中的IgG水平在出生后的72小时之内一直保持刚出生时的水平(P>0.05) ,表明在此阶段内仔猪还没有合成自身IgG的能力。仔猪出生后饲喂8g 外源PIgG ,其血清中的IgG峰值能达到22.18mg/ml ,这一值与自然哺乳情况下的峰值相比相差甚大。乳糖强烈抑制新生仔猪对外源PIgG的吸收(P<0.05) ,给仔猪饲喂10g乳糖后与对照组(水)比较 ,仔猪对外源PIgG的吸收将减少45.31 % ,而喂50g乳糖则减少92.02 %。在本试验条件下 ,乳糖浓度对新生仔猪吸收PIgG的抑制曲线为典型
