不同饲用燕麦品种生产性能的综合评价

基于熵权赋权法,运用灰色系统理论中的灰色关联度法对26个燕麦品种的生产性能进行综合评价,结果表明,生产性能综合表现较好的是初岛燕麦、青永久409、青永久709及青永久316;青永久18综合评价值最低,生产性能最差,其余品种生产性能表现一般。经逐步回归分析,发现其中的绿叶数、叶长、茎叶比、鲜干比、生长速度、叶面积指数、相对生长速率及生长天数8个指标对饲用燕麦生产性能贡献显著。     

鸡传染性法氏囊病毒VP2蛋白B细胞抗原表位预测

以鸡传染性法氏囊病毒VP2蛋白的基因组序列为基础,采用Garnier-Robson方法、Chou-Fasman方法和Karplus-Schultz方法预测VP2蛋白质的二级结构;用Kyte-Doolittle方案预测蛋白质的亲水性;用Emini方案预测蛋白质的表面可能性;用Jameson-Wolf方案预测氨基酸的抗原性指数。综合分析,预测VP2蛋白的抗原表位。通过以上几种方法预测IBDV病毒VP2蛋白的B细胞表位位于VP2蛋白N端3-10、30-45、77-84、150-157、197-206、211-222、278-288、298-303、315-325、376-381、386-394、403-411、415-425区段。

Effects of road transportation on metabolic and immunological responses in Holstein heifers

This study examined the effects of road transportation on metabolic and immunological responses in dairy heifers. Twenty Holstein heifers in early pregnancy were divided into non‐transported (NT; n = 7) and transported (T; n = 13) groups. Blood was collected before transportation (BT), immediately after transportation for 100 km (T1) and 200 km (T2), and 24 h after transportation (AT). The T heifers had higher (P < 0.05) blood cortisol and non‐esterified fatty acid concentrations after T1 and T2 than did NT heifers. By contrast, the T heifers had lower (P < 0.05) serum triglyceride concentrations after T1 and T2 than had the NT heifers. The serum cortisol and triglyceride concentrations returned (P > 0.05) to the BT concentrations at 24 h AT in the T heifers. The granulocyte‐to‐lymphocyte ratio and the percentage of monocytes were higher (P < 0.05) after T2 in the T heifers than in the NT heifers, suggesting that transportation stress increased the numbers of innate immune cells. T heifers had higher (P < 0.01) plasma haptoglobin concentrations than NT heifers 24 h AT. In conclusion, transportation increased cortisol secretion and was correlated with increased metabolic responses and up‐regulation of peripheral innate immune cells in dairy heifers.     

Bio—G除臭剂对蛋鸡舍内氨气及产蛋性能的影响

在面积相等，饲养密度相近的2栋蛋鸡舍内连续15d喷洒Bio-G除臭剂，每天1次，每次5L，结果表明，喷洒Bio-G后，鸡舍氨气含量明显下降，但对蛋鸡产蛋性能无明显影响。     

生物纤维饲料在蛋鸡生产中的应用研究

生物纤维饲料是对玉米淀粉湿磨国工过程中的浸泡液，黄浆和玉米皮渣等副产品经生物发酵方法而形成的一种新型饲料。本文研究了生物纤维饲料在蛋鸡饲养中的饲喂效果。试验表明，半风干生物纤维饲料（含水分26．68％）以5％比例添加蛋鸡日粮中的饲喂效果与对照组相比，日均产蛋量提高6．4％，平均产蛋率提高6．05％，料蛋比下降13．01％，毛利润提高90．70％，而风干生物纤维饲料（含水分15．44％），则以10％比添加于蛋鸡日粮时，表现出较明显的增产效果，其与对照组相比，日均产蛋量提高4．04％，平均产蛋率提高4．18％，料蛋比下降4．09％，毛利润提高25．74％。

饲料钙测定中原子吸收法和高锰酸钾滴定法的比较

在国家标准中，饲料中钙的测定方法是高锰酸钾滴定法。其方法原理是：将试样中有机物破坏，钙变成溶于水的离子，用草酸铵定量沉淀，用高锰酸钾法间接测定钙含量。此方法前处理较繁琐，前后需三天时间，检测周期较长。对于大批量的样品检测的速度带来一定的影响。原子吸收法测定比高锰酸钾滴定法更简便和直接，并且更精确。其方法原理为：样品经湿法消化，分解有机质后，将钙元素溶解在稀酸中，将溶液直接吸入空气－乙炔火焰中原子化，并在光路中测定钙原子对特定波长谱线的吸收。1 仪器和试剂1.1 仪器原子吸收分光光度计(美国瓦里安公司，…     

Pyruvate kinase is necessary for Brucella abortus full virulence in BALB/c mouse

Brucellosis, caused by a facultative intracellular pathogen Brucella, is one of the most prevalent zoonosis worldwide. Host infection relies on several uncanonical virulence factors. A recent research hotpot is the links between carbon metabolism and bacterial virulence. In this study, we found that a carbon metabolism-related pyruvate kinase (Pyk) encoded by pyk gene (locus tag BAB_RS24320) was associated with Brucella virulence. Determination of bacterial growth curves and resistance to environmental stress factors showed that Pyk plays an important role in B. abortus growth, especially under the conditions of nutrition deprivation, and resistance to oxidative stress. Additionally, cell infection assay showed that Pyk is necessary for B. abortus survival and evading fusion with lysosomes within RAW264.7 cells. Moreover, animal experiments exhibited that the Pyk deletion significantly reduced B. abortus virulence in a mouse infection model. Our results elucidated the role of the Pyk in B. abortus virulence and provided information for further investigation of Brucella virulence associated carbon metabolism.
