Maslinic acid and ration size enhanced hepatic protein‐turnover rates of gilthead sea bream (Sparus aurata)

Maslinic acid (MA) is a natural triterpene that can be used as an additive in the diet of trout. We investigated the effects of feeding with MA and a fixed ration (10 g kg^?1 body weight) with respect to growth, protein‐turnover rates and nucleic‐acid concentration in the liver of gilthead sea bream grown under fish‐farm conditions. Five groups of 12 g of a mean body mass were fed for 210 days with diets containing 0 (control), 0.05 and 0.1 g of MA per kg of diet. Two groups were fed ad libitum (control AL and MA₁₀₀AL), and three with a fixed ration (control R, MA₅₀R and MA₁₀₀R). At the end of the experiment, higher body weights, liver weight, feed‐efficiency and PER were found in MA₁₀₀AL and MA₁₀₀R fish. Fractional and absolute protein‐synthesis rates in liver of MA₁₀₀R fish were higher than in the control, resulting in a higher absolute protein‐accumulation rate and tissue growth. Total DNA content in MA₁₀₀AL and MA₁₀₀R was higher than in control. Studies of light and electron microscopy corroborated these results. These findings indicate that MA added to the diet can stimulate growth, hepatic protein‐turnover rates and tissue hyperplasia in gilthead sea bream.     

表面活性剂辅助的甲硫氨酸和色氨酸叶面喷施对芥蓝生长及菜薹芥子油苷组分和含量的影响

采用盆栽试验,研究了脂肪族芥子油苷和吲哚族芥子油苷的合成前体甲硫氨酸和色氨酸单独及配合表面活性剂叶面喷施对芥蓝(Brassica alboglabra L.)生长及菜薹中芥子油苷组分和含量的影响。结果表明,各处理对芥蓝生长指标及芥子油苷组分无显著影响,在芥蓝菜薹中均检测到7种脂肪族芥子油苷和4种吲哚族芥子油苷。与喷施清水对照相比,甲硫氨酸、色氨酸单独叶面喷施及表面活性剂辅助的色氨酸叶面喷施,对芥蓝菜薹总芥子油苷含量、总脂肪族芥子油苷含量和总吲哚族芥子油苷含量均无显著影响。表面活性剂辅助下甲硫氨酸叶面喷施处理中菜薹总芥子油苷和总脂肪族芥子油苷含量比清水对照处理分别提高28.5%和31.9%,其中在11种芥子油苷中脂肪族芥子油苷3-丁烯基芥子油苷含量提高幅度最大,达到44.3%,同时表面活性剂辅助下甲硫氨酸叶面喷施显著提高了芥蓝菜薹全硫含量并降低了氮硫比(N/S)。本试验结果表明,有效供给甲硫氨酸能明显促进脂肪族芥子油苷的合成和积累,而辅之以表面活性剂能增进叶面对甲硫氨酸的吸收效果,其影响机理还有待进一步研究。     

西藏草地资源价值及退化损失评估

用4类共13个指标评估了西藏草地资源的价值,并根据草地资源退化速率评估了草地价值年损失量.结果表明,西藏草地资源的价值为1080.33×108元·a-1,包括:调节功能价值884.4989×108元·a-1(81.87%);实物提供价值173.2957×108元·a-1(16.04%);支持功能价值18.6253×108元·a-1(1.72%);旅游功能价值3.91×108元·a-1(0.36%).其中,调节功能的价值由6项组成(空气质量调节未计算),依大小次序排列为土壤碳累积、蓄水、营养物质循环、土壤保持、废弃物降解和养分归还.总体来看,草地资源的文化功能和支持功能有待进一步发展.西藏草地资源的总价值(现值)为11883.63亿元,退化损失的价值为2376.726亿元,年草地资源退化损失价值为297.091亿元.

西北寒旱地区湖羊及其杂交后代生长发育模型分析

本试验测定了舍饲条件下的215只湖羊和60只湖杜湖[湖羊♂×(杜泊羊♂×湖羊♀)♀]杂交羔羊0~12月龄的体重,采用Gompertz模型和Logistic模型拟合了湖羊和湖杜湖杂交羔羊0~12月龄生长过程,并分析比较了生长参数及模型估计值,进而评价湖杜湖的杂交优势。结果表明,2种模型的拟合度(R²)均在0.96以上,拟合效果好,其中Gompertz模型拟合两个种群效果好于Logistic模型;湖羊公、母羔拐点月龄分别为2.55和1.73个月,拐点体重分别为17.00和13.14 kg;湖杜湖公、母羔拐点月龄均早于湖羊,公、母羔拐点体重分别相差0.74和2.66 kg,公、母羔累积生长均极显著高于湖羊(P<0.01)。结果说明湖杜湖早期生长强于湖羊,湖杜湖杂交效果显著。     

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF NUMERICAL CLASSIFICATION AND ORDINATION OF SOIL PROFILES IN A LOCALITY NEAR OXFORD

Data for 85 soil profiles, located at random within 17 physiographic units in a 1,000 km² area near Oxford, and each characterized by 37 properties, were analysed by two sets of multivariate techniques. Principal component analysis yielded two components accounting for 44 per cent of the total variation, and the distribution of the profiles along these components is plotted as a scatter diagram (ordination). Similarity analysis and hierarchical grouping (classification) were performed using three different similarity indices, two different standardization techniques, and three different sorting strategies. Before analysis the profiles were classified by two pedologists, independently using their judgement. For the Brown Earths there was moderately good agreement between the results of the two prior classifications and between them and those produced by the several numerical procedures. The degree of clustering was slight and much less than imagined prior to analysis. For the Gleys there was no evident clustering. Different numerical procedures gave different results, as also did the two prior classifications. Pedologists faced with difficult classificatory decisions cannot look to any hierarchical clustering strategy as arbiter, though they should get guidance from a principal component plot.     

镉与微量元素在小麦吸收过程中的相互影响

为开发小麦生理阻控降Cd材料,以郑麦1354和郑麦1860为供试小麦品种,通过水培试验方法,研究了不同Zn（1~10μmol·L^-1）和Mn （1~10 μmol·L^-1）供应量对小麦生物量和Cd/Zn/Mn含量的影响,以及不同Cd （1~50 μmol·L^-1）胁迫水平对小麦生物量和Cd/Zn/Mn含量的影响。结果表明,5 μmol·L^-1 Zn和10 μmol·L^-1 Mn处理显著提高了两种小麦的生物量。Mn （1~10 μmol·L^-1）处理使郑麦1354和郑麦1860小麦地上部Cd含量分别降低了22.8%~29.4%和15.2%~17.5%,地下部Cd含量分别降低了25.7%~30.0%和28.6%~31.6%,Zn（1~10 μmol·L^-1）处理使郑麦1354和郑麦1860小麦地下部Cd含量分别降低了20.3%~34.3%和18.9%~43.0%,此外还使郑麦1354地上部的Cd含量降低了10.1%~13.1%。不同Cd胁迫（1~50 μmol·L^-1）均有提高小麦生物量的趋势。随着Cd胁迫水平的提高,两个品种地上部和地下部Cd含量均呈升高趋势,地下部Zn含量呈先增加后降低的趋势,Mn含量呈逐渐降低的趋势,表明在小麦吸收金属元素过程中,Cd与Mn存在竞争关系,而与Zn的关系则较为复杂,且其竞争程度因品种而异。研究表明,适度提高Mn和Zn供应能显著降低小麦植株Cd含量,因此Mn和Zn是实现小麦降Cd的有效生理阻控材料。

Neoformed aragonite in clay soils on Keuper materials from east-central Spain

Fibrous radial aragonite nodules occur in a toposequence developed in the Triassic (Keuper) in a subhumid mediterranean climate (Soria, Spain). Neoformation in situ of the nodules in these soils is proposed, on micromorphological and physico-chemical grounds, such as their fragility, the inclusion of material from the groundmass, their occurrence along cracks and their high Mg: Ca ratio.
