马铃薯响应磷胁迫机制及磷高效利用育种

无机磷是马铃薯生长和块茎发育必需的大量营养元素,广泛参与了遗传物质和生物膜的构成、能量转化以及代谢调控等过程,对马铃薯茎叶生长和块茎发育起着重要的作用.土壤的磷含量会明显影响马铃薯的发育,且在不同遗传特性的马铃薯品种间存在磷效率差异.为了保证马铃薯的正常生长和产量的稳定,磷肥在马铃薯种植业中被大量使用.然而,磷肥的过量...     

纳米羟基磷灰石对重金属污染土壤Cu/Cd形态分布及土壤酶活性影响

通过室内培养实验,研究了纳米羟基磷灰石对重金属污染土壤Cu/Cd形态分布及土壤酶活性的影响.结果表明,施加纳米羟基磷灰石显著提高了土壤pH,其中3%和5%添加剂量处理60d后使土壤pH分别提高了1.23个和1.35个单位;纳米羟基磷灰石显著减少了毒性较强的离子交换态Cu/Cd的含量,增加了毒性中等的碳酸盐结合态、铁锰氧化物结合态、有机结合态及毒性最低的残留态Cu/Cd含量,使Cu/Cd由植物可利用态向潜在可利用态转变;纳米羟基磷灰石不同程度地提高了土壤过氧化氢酶、脲酶和酸性磷酸酶活性.3种酶活性与Cu/Cd形态分布的相关性表明,过氧化氢酶和酸性磷酸酶对土壤重金属Cu/Cd活性变化比较敏感,可以作为重金属Cu/Cd污染土壤的评价指标.     

高温胁迫下外源水杨酸对金线兰抗氧化酶活性的影响

为给规模化生产金线兰提供理论依据和技术支持,探索了高温胁迫下外源水杨酸(SA)对金线兰抗氧化酶的影响。结果表明:高温条件下,0.5～1.5mmol/L外源SA均可提高金线兰的SOD、POD和CAT活性;外源SA不能诱导SOD和CAT同工酶新酶带的表达,但有新的POD酶带产生。说明,外源SA通过调节金线兰抗氧化酶系统,缓解了高温胁迫对金线兰的伤害。     

县域农业可持续发展的生态安全评价——以吉林省通榆县为例

以吉林省通榆县为例,构建了县域农业可持续发展的生态安全评价指标体系,采用均方差法确定了评价指标的权重,对研究区1985、1990、1995、1998、2001、2004年6个时段的农业生态安全进行了评价.从评价结果可以看出,近20年,通榆县农业生态安全呈现下降态势,安全等级处于Ⅲ～Ⅴ级,安全状态从敏感态下降到风险态.1998年是研究区农业生态安全变化的转折点,从1998年起,农业生态安全有所回升.在分析变化原因的基础上,提出农业可持续发展的生态安全建设对策.     

Molecular and serologic characterization, pathogenicity, and protection studies with infectious bronchitis virus field isolates from California

In this study, we characterized three variant infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) strains isolated in 2003 and 2004 from broiler chickens in California and compared them to previously isolated California variant viruses and to common vaccine serotypes used in the United States. We conducted genetic, serologic, and pathogenicity studies on all three isolates, then tested different vaccines against one of the viruses. Genetically the three variant IBV strains, designated CA557/03, CA706/03, and CA1737/04, were not related to each other. GenBank BLAST database search and phylogenetic analysis of the hypervariable region of the S1 subunit of the spike gene to determine the most closely related viruses to the three variants showed the CA557/03 variant to be 81.8% similar to the CAV/CA56b/91 whereas the CA706/03 and CA1737/04 variant viruses were only distantly related to Dutch/D1466/81 (72.2%), a vaccine strain used in Europe, and Korea/K142/02 (72.7%), a Korean field isolate, respectively. Cross virus-neutralization testing showed that none of the 2003-04 California IBV variant viruses were serologically related to each other or to Ark, Conn, or Mass vaccine strains. In addition the CA1737/04 isolate was also tested against DE072 and found not to be serologically related. All three variant viruses were pathogenic in 1-wk-old broilers and vaccination with Mass/Conn followed by Holland/Conn provided 80% protection against the CA1737/04 virus. The 2003-04 California variant viruses were not compared with variants isolated in California during 1970s and 1980s because, to our knowledge, no genetic information is available and those viruses are no longer obtainable. This study shows that the CA557/03 virus was distantly related to the CAV-type viruses isolated in California in the early 1990s, but that none of the 2003-04 viruses were similar genetically or serologically to the CAL99-type viruses, indicating that new IBV variants continue to emerge and cause disease in commercial chickens in California.

Phenotypic and genotypic background underlying variations in fatty acid composition and sensory parameters in European bovine breeds

Background： Consuming moderate amounts of lean red meat as part of a balanced diet valuably contributes to intakes of essential nutrients, in this study, we merged phenotypic and genotypic information to characterize the variation in lipid profile and sensory parameters and to represent the diversity among 15 cattle populations. Correlations between fat content, organoleptic characteristics and lipid profiles were also investigated. Methods： A sample of 436 largely unrelated purebred bulls belonging to 15 breeds and reared under comparable management conditions was analyzed. Phenotypic data -including fatness score, fat percentage, individual fatty acids （FA） profiles and sensory panel tests- and genotypic information from 11 polymorphisms was used. Results： The correlation coefficients between muscle total lipid measurements and absolute vs. relative amounts of polyunsaturated FA （PUFA） were in opposite directions. Increasing carcass fat leads to an increasing amount of FAs in triglycerides, but at the same time the relative amount of PUFAs is decreasing, which is in concordance with the negative correlation obtained here between the percentage of PUFA and fat measurements, as well as the weaker correlation between total phospholipids and total lipid muscle content compared with neutral lipids. Concerning organoleptic characteristics, a negative correlation between fiavour scores and the percentage of total PUFA, particularly to n-6 fraction, was found. The correlation between juiciness and texture is higher than with flavour scores. The distribution of SNPs plotted by principal components analysis （PCA） mainly reflects their known trait associations, although influenced by their specific breed allele frequencies. Conclusions： The results presented here help to understand the phenotypic and genotypic background underlying variations in FA composition and sensory parameters between breeds. The wide range of traits and breeds studied, along with the genotypic information on polymorphisms previo     

The hymenopterous parasites of Nitidulidae

The known information on hymenopterous parasites of Nitidulidae was consolidated in this article. Species of parasites, nitidulid hosts and, where possible, plant host of the nitidulids are provided along with citations to sources of information. Thirty-three species of hymenopterous parasites are recorded in nine different families. Since nomenclature of several of the parasites has changed, it was updated with the assistance of specialists.     

Response of white leghorn chickens to infection with avian leukosis virus subgroup J and infectious bursal disease virus

The effects of viral-induced immunosuppression on the infectious status (viremia and antibody) and shedding of avian leukosis virus (ALV) were studied. Experimental white leghorn chickens were inoculated with ALV subgroup J (ALV-J) and infectious bursal disease virus (IBDV) at day of hatch with the ALV-J ADOL prototype strain Hcl, the Lukert strain of IBDV, or both. Appropriate groups were exposed a second time with the Lukert strain at 2 wk of age. Serum samples were collected at 2 and 4 wk of age for IBDV antibody detection. Samples for ALV-J viremia, antibody detection, and cloacal shedding were collected at 4, 10, 18, and 30 wk of age. The experiment was terminated at 30 wk of age, and birds were necropsied and examined grossly for tumor development. Neoplasias detected included hemangiomas, bile duct carcinoma, and anaplastic sarcoma of the nerve. Control birds and IBDV-infected birds were negative for ALV-J-induced viremia, antibodies, and cloacal shedding throughout experiment. By 10 wk, ALV-J-infected groups began to develop antibodies to ALV-J. However, at 18 wk the incidence of virus isolation increased in both groups, with a simultaneous decrease in antibody levels. At 30 wk, 97% of birds in the ALV-J group were virus positive and 41% were antibody positive. In the ALV-J/IDBV group, 96% of the birds were virus positive at 30 wk, and 27% had antibodies to ALV-J. In this study, infection with a mild classic strain of IBDV did not influence ALV-J infection or antibody production.
