越桔对长白山区酸性土壤的适应性

在长白山区３种类型的酸性土壤上栽培越桔，研究结果表明，｀北空＇、｀美登＇、｀斯卫克＇在暗棕色森林土上生长结果较好，树体营养关系合理；在草甸沼泽土上３个种生长结果均较差，｀北空＇在水湿地潜育土上生长旺盛，但产量低，综合分析认为，矮丛越桔类型品种对我国长白山区酸性土壤条件的适应性较强，半高丛越桔则适应性差，针对长白山不同类型的土壤，以美登最为适宜暗棕色森林土栽培，斯卫克次之；水湿地潜育土可栽培美登品种     

蓝舌病灭活疫苗免疫羊ELISA和琼扩监测比较试验

用19只绵羊（注苗前BTV琼扩和ELISA均为阴性）注射BTV灭活苗后7～139天的血清进行BTVELISA和琼扩平行试验，结果表明，注苗后7～30天11只试验丰ELISA阳性，注苗40天13只羊ELISA阳性，注苗90天以后全部试验羊只均为ELISA阳性，而琼扩试验则始终为阴性结果。     

白夹竹丰产技术研究初报

对白夹竹林进行丰产技术研究结果证明,施肥、抚育、间伐等措施确能提高白夹竹林分的产量和质量。试验进一步揭示施肥能提高白夹竹林产量和质量的关键性技术是施肥时间和施肥三要素(N、P、K)配方的比例及用量。同时指出,间伐强度要依立竹胸径、叶面积指数而定,并要保证母竹林分布的均匀。本试验为白夹竹林实行科学经营提供依据。     

金定鸭的性双态分化和性行为发育

金定鸭的外型分化，受自然选择和性选择的双重影响。在生长发育过程中，依羽域在适应水域环境的重要性，雌雄金定鸭的正羽都按共同的羽域顺序陆续更换生长；与此同时，一日龄外型相同的异性雏鸭，逐渐表现出性双态，包括喙色、羽色、声音、性羽、体重和行为的表型差异，以满足繁殖竞争的需要。金定鸭性行为的出现以其性双态分化为基础，而性行为的分化又是其生理成熟的前提条件。对雄鸭的观察分析结果表明，性双态分化和性行为发育速度的快慢与其生理成熟的早迟是一致的。黑色尾羽的雄鸭，体重较小，其发育速度和性成熟均快于体重较大的白喙或端白尾羽者，因此，建议将尾羽颜色、性双态分化和性行为发育速度作为雄鸭的选育指标。     

百脉根种子硬实处理与耐藏性的探讨

地百脉根种子硬实用不同方法处理和对不同贮藏时间种子耐藏性的测定结果表明：贮藏１年种子含硬实率５９．３％。经擦破种皮或硫酸浸种处理，硬实率明显下降，发芽势，发芽率显著提高；种子随贮藏期的增长，硬实率明显下降，其发芽势，发芽率，活力指数以及直播出苗率，幼细苗存活率等亦随贮藏时间的延长而下降；种子电导值则随贮藏时间的延长而增大。     

不同氮源对红檬实生苗菌根依赖性的影响

将红檬实生苗培养于改良无土基质中，接种泡囊－丛枝菌根Ｇｌｏｍｕｓｃｉｔｒｏｃｏｌｕｍ，以不接种菌根为对照，并分别施用含氮量相等的３种氮肥，即硝酸按（ＮＯ３－Ｎ）、尿素（ＮＨ２－Ｎ）和硫酸铵（ＮＨ４－Ｎ）。接种菌根１６周后，施不同氮肥的红檬实生苗均有效地感染了菌根，并促进了植株的生长。试验证明，红实生苗施硝态氮（ＮＯ３－Ｎ）使植株的菌根依赖性有明显提高。     

Studies on efficacy and stability of a vaccine bait containing ERA strain of rabies virus propagated in a BHK-21 cell line.

In a dose response study in foxes, the median protective dose of ERA BHK21 vaccine in a blister pack bait was 10(6.0) tissue culture infective doses (TCID)/mL, while artificially aged baits with titers of 10(6.3) TCID/mL induced seroconversion in 78% of foxes. There was no significant difference in the development of antibodies in foxes receiving 1, 2 or 3 mL volumes of vaccine in the bait. When baits were exposed to the elements and fed to foxes over a 21 day period, 85% of the animals seroconverted. Age, sex and the way in which the vaccine container was contacted did not appear to be factors in the responses of these animals. Juvenile foxes, approximately six months of age, were marked more readily with the tetracycline bait marker than older animals. Approximately 25% of foxes did not appear to respond well to vaccination and the titer of the vaccine was a critical factor in producing seroconversion in these animals.     

Inheritance of myotonic discharges in American quarter horses and the relationship to hyperkalemic periodic paralysis.

Electromyography (EMG) was used to detect myotonic discharges in Quarter Horse breeding stock and to follow the results of mating horses with hyperkalemic periodic paralysis (HPP). The studies were performed on two brood mare farms. A total of six breeding stock showed myotonic discharges and 15 were nonmyotonic. Myotonic discharges were seen in five of six horses belonging to the blood line previously implicated as being predisposed to HPP. Two of these horses had shown clinical signs of HPP. Only one of 15 breeding horses unrelated to the HPP predisposed blood line showed myotonic discharges. When both parents were non-myotonic on EMG than the F1 generation (n = 6) were also nonmyotonic. When a stallion with HPP and myotonic discharges was mated to eight nonmyotonic mares over a six year period half the animals of the F1 generation (n = 25) showed myotonic discharges. When both parents showed myotonic discharges four F1 offspring were myotonic and two were nonmyotonic on EMG testing. There was no evidence of sex linkage. The results are consistent with an autosomal dominant mode of inheritance. Hyperkalemic periodic paralysis and myotonic discharges on EMG may be different manifestations of the same underlying defect.
