Anatid herpesvirus 1 CH virulent strain induces syncytium and apoptosis in duck embryo fibroblast cultures

Anatid herpesvirus 1 (AHV-1) CH virulent strain was first isolated from an infected duck and it was found that this virus strain could induce cytopathic effect (CPE) in duck embryo fibroblast (DEF). Following AHV-1 infection, DEF showed morphological changes such as cell rounding, improved refractivity and detachment from the culture surface. However, its pathological characteristics were not adequately known. Related studies were performed and the results showed that syncytium formation could be observed as the other type of CPE in AHV-1 infection. Hematoxylin-eosin staining and 4’, 6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI) staining of infected DEF were each used to visualize the shape and distribution of chromatin within nuclei and nuclear fragmentation was observed. Chromatin condensation and margination, as well as formation of apoptotic bodies were observed by transmission electron microscopy (TEM). DNA ladder formation was detected in AHV-1 infected cells and apoptosis of the infected DEF was also detected by flow cytometry analysis of Annexin V-FITC/PI staining method. Therefore, it was suggested that AHV-1 virulent strain can induce syncytium and apoptosis in DEF. Syncytium formation and apoptosis observed in this study may contribute to the elucidation of AHV-1 pathogenesis.     

Statistical Model on the Time and Time Difference Error of Arrival in TDOA Location Estimation

Additional time delay of arrival resulted from non-line of sight(NLOS)propagation and muti-path effect in(cellular) environment is the dominant factor resulting in TDOA location error,study on the statistical property of TDOA error is useful for improving the accuracy of TDOA location.Based on the exponential distribution property of NLOS propagation delay,and considering the system error resulted from the signal detection,the authors establish a statistical model of arrival time and a model of TDOA error distribution by statistics when non-light of sight and multi-path propagation exist.The models reflect the statistical property of arrival time and TDOA error in cell network,the simulation shows that the proposed models have a good accuracy and a satisfactory behavior.     

马关县草果种植地的施肥效果试验

在马关县仁和镇的4年生草果种植地开展了施用不同量的农家肥、钾肥、普钙和复合肥促进草果植株开花结实效果的试验。结果表明:对该地的草果种植地进行合理的施肥能有效促进草果植株叶芽、花芽的分化,提高其结实率及结实量。各施肥处理的草果植株在叶芽数量、花芽数量、结实率及结实量等4个指标上均优于不施肥的对照,分别比对照提高了24.4%~204.9%、22%~97.6%、5.4%~36.9%和72.4%~442.3%。各施肥处理的草果植株在叶芽数量及结实量2个指标上存在极显著的差异,而在花芽数量及结实率2个指标上无显著差异。综合各施肥处理的草果植株结实量及结实率,在马关县及其土壤状况相似的草果种植地较佳的施肥肥种为钾肥或复合肥,其施肥量为钾肥200 g/株(丛)或复合肥400 g/株(丛),前者草果植株单株(丛)的结实量达8.46 kg,比不施肥的对照高442.3%,后者草果植株单株(丛)结实量达7.82 kg,比不施肥对照高401.3%。     

Short term soil priming effects and the mineralisation of biochar following its incorporation to soils of different pH

The aim of this work was to determine the magnitude of the priming effect, i.e. short-term changes in the rate (negative or positive) of mineralisation of native soil organic carbon (C), following addition of biochars. The biochars were made from Miscanthus giganteus, a C4 plant, naturally enriched with ¹³C. The biochars were produced at 350 °C (biochar350) and 700 °C (biochar700) and applied with and without ryegrass as a substrate to a clay-loam soil at pH 3.7 and 7.6. A secondary aim was to determine the effect of ryegrass addition on the mineralisation of the two biochars.After 87 days, biochar350 addition caused priming effects equivalent to 250 and 319 μg CO₂-C g⁻¹ soil, in the low and high pH soil, respectively. The largest priming effects occurred at the start of the incubations. The size of the priming effect was decreased at higher biochar pyrolysis temperatures, which may be a way of controlling priming effects following biochar incorporation to soil, if desired. The priming effect was probably induced by the water soluble components of the biochar. At 87 days of incubation, 0.14% and 0.18% of biochar700 and 0.61% and 0.84% of biochar350 were mineralized in the low and high pH soil, respectively. Ryegrass addition gave an increased biochar350 mineralisation of 33% and 40%, and increased biochar700 at 137% and 70%, in the low and high pH soils, respectively. Certainly, on the basis of our results, if biochar is used to sequester carbon a priming effect may occur, increasing CO₂-C evolved from soil and decreasing soil organic C. However, this will be more than compensated for by the increased soil C caused by biochar incorporation. A similar conclusion holds for accelerated mineralisation of biochar due to incorporation of fresh labile substrates. We consider that our results are the first to unequivocally demonstrate the initiation, progress and termination of a true positive priming effect by biochar on native soil organic C.

采用盆栽试验,测定10个多年生黑麦草(Lolium perenne)品种在不同浓度铜污染土壤中的干生物量,以及植株根部、茎秆和叶片3个不同部位中的铜富集量,以期为铜污染土壤的恢复治理提供参考依据。结果表明:试验条件下,多年生黑麦草根部、茎秆和叶片3个不同部位中铜富集量随着土壤中Cu2+浓度的升高而升高;多年生黑麦草5(Harukaze)的铜富集能力较强,多年生黑麦草7和9的铜富集能力较差,其他介于两者之间。在铜胁迫下,多年生黑麦草根部是主要的铜富集器官,其次为茎秆,最后是叶片。采用隶属函数法铜富集特性进行综合评价,黑麦草5(Harukaze)具有较好铜富集能力,可优先考虑。
