薹草属菱形果薹草组9种植物叶片的解剖学研究

利用石蜡切片法和叶表皮装片法对薹草属菱形果薹草组(Carexsect.Rhomboidales)9种植物进行叶片解剖结构特征观察。结果表明:9种植物的叶片解剖学特征总体上较一致,如横切面形状为"V"形或近"V"形,具气腔,中脉上方具泡状细胞,中脉维管束周围有不同程度的厚壁组织;上表皮细胞一般比下表皮细胞大;表皮下的叶肉细胞均出现不同程度的分化;叶表皮特征显示上、下表皮细胞均为长方形,垂周壁深波状弯曲,表现出近似种之间的相似性;表皮附属物为刺突状表皮毛;但不同种之间的叶解剖特征也有一定的区别,表现在泡状细胞层数、叶肉细胞分化层数和中脉维管束2端厚壁组织发达程度不同,气孔器在脉间成列或随机分布,气孔指数和气孔密度也有差异,可以作为区分种的依据。据此,本文提供了基于叶片解剖特征的9种植物分种检索表。     

河南两地市小麦白粉病菌的分子鉴定和进化分析

通过对河南省周口市和商丘市小麦白粉病菌进行分子鉴定及分析,以期为小麦白粉病菌的防治和系统进化奠定基础。对小麦白粉病菌进行了扫描电镜的显微形态观察、核糖体DNA转录间隔区(ITS)序列测定及进化树分析。结果显示:周口和商丘的小麦白粉病菌均属于禾本科布氏白粉菌;系统进化发现,商丘的小麦白粉病菌与地域相距较远的英国、法国、美国的小麦白粉病菌的同源性极高,而与地域很近的周口小麦白粉病菌同源性却不高,推测小麦白粉病菌的进化可能与其自身的小种进化有关。     

Wood welding: A challenging alternative to conventional wood gluing

Abstract

The recent finding of a new way to assemble two pieces of wood by mechanically induced wood welding opens a new and challenging perspective for producing more environmentally friendly wooden products, i.e. without glue. This process, recently applied to solid wood, needs to be better understood to investigate the dependence of the variability of wood properties on the welding parameters. The two applications presented are the linear vibration welding and direct rotational friction welding. In each case different wood species were tested. In the most favourable cases the wood joints yielded structural grade strength. The resulting bond densification was analysed by the mean of wood density maps for oak, beech, spruce and pine. If this technique proves successful, it could change significantly the future of the furniture industry. The objectives of this article are to present the main results obtained so far and to suggest different research areas needed to improve this new way of jointing solid wood.     

Two anatomic resources of canine pelvic limb muscles based on CT and MRI

Advances in magnetic resonance (MR) imaging and three-dimensional (3D) modeling software provide the tools necessary to create sophisticated, interactive anatomic resources that can assist in the interpretation of MR images of extremities, and learning the structure and function of limb musculature. Modeling provides advantages over dissection or consultation of print atlases because of the associated speed, flexibility, 3D nature, and elimination of superimposed arrows and labels. Our goals were to create a diagnostic atlas of pelvic limb muscles that will facilitate interpretation of MR images of patients with muscle injury and to create a 3D model of the canine pelvic limb musculature to facilitate anatomic learning. To create these resources, we used structural segmentation of MR images, a process that groups image pixels into anatomically meaningful regions. The Diagnostic Atlas is an interactive, multiplanar, web-based MR atlas of the canine pelvic limb musculature that was created by manually segmenting clinically analogous MR sequences. Higher resolution volumetric MR and computed tomography (CT) data were segmented into separately labeled volumes of data and then transformed into a multilayered 3D computer model. The 3D Model serves as a resource for students of gross anatomy, encouraging integrative learning with its highly interactive and selective display capabilities. For clinicians, the 3D Model also serves to bridge the gap between topographic and tomographic anatomy, displaying both formats alongside, or even superimposed over each other. Both projects are hosted on an open-access website, http://3dvetanatomy.ncsu.edu/     

Magnetic resonance imaging of the ligamentous structures of the occipitoatlantoaxial region in the dog

Our objectives were to establish a magnetic resonance (MR) protocol for the examination of, and then describe, the normal ligaments and the supporting structures of the occipitoatlantoaxial region. This was done in 10 cadaver dogs. In addition, MR images of three patients with cervical pain localized to the occipitoatlantoaxial region are included to provide examples of ligamentous abnormalities. All ligaments were hypointense in all pulse sequences. The apical, dorsal atlantoaxial, and dorsal longitudinal vertebral ligaments were seen best in the sagittal T1W and PD-weighted images. The transverse ligament was best visualized in the transverse plane in all pulse sequences and appeared to be confluent with the dorsal longitudinal vertebral ligament dorsal to the dens in the sagittal plane. A 20° dorsal plane reconstructed image in 0.6-mm slice thickness was necessary to visualize the alar ligaments, which were visible in 9/10 dogs. The dorsal longitudinal vertebral ligament appeared continuous with the apical ligament and tectorial membrane. Abnormalities in clinically affected dogs included thickening of the alar ligaments, absence of transverse ligament and elongation, and irregularity of the apical ligament.     

牡丹‘乌龙捧盛’组培苗生根及生根解剖学研究

The tissue-cultured seedlings of tree peony ‘Wulong Pengsheng’ were used to study the effects of different plant growth regulators, culture methods, and holdfast on rooting. The morphological structure change during rooting was also observed using the method of paraffin section. The result showed that the best combination of plant growth regulators for rooting was IBA 3.0 mg·L^-1 + NAA 0.6 mg·L^-1. The treatment under the temperature of 4℃ for ten days was benefit to rooting, and the rate could reach 75.67%. It was identified that the adventitious root primordia of shoot in vitro originated from the vascular cambium cells, especially, the cross areas of cambium and pith ray and they started to differentiate at the 5th day and lasted to the 12th day. If the shoots were cultured in the root inducing medium for 12 days, it would lead to not only descend of rooting rate, but also showing callus of stem base, and leaf senescent. However, if they were transferred into the medium without hormone in time, the root primordial protruded the epidermis and developed normally after 5 days’ culture.     

Note on the Taxonomy of Genetta

The recruitment patterns of six teleosts were studied at King’s Beach, Algoa Bay. February to May marked the major recruitment period for Diplodus sargus, Lithognathus mormyrus, Rhabdosargus globiceps and Trachurus capensis. The major recruitment of Sarpa salpa fry took place between August and September. Pomadasys olivaceum fry of < 5 cm total length were caught throughout the year indicating an extended breeding period. The estimated growth rates of new recruits between February and May (autumn/winter) was 0,60 cm month ^-1 for L. mormyrus, 0,75 cm month^-1 for ft globiceps and 0,40 cm month^-1 for T. capensis. The empirical growth curve derived for S. salpa indicated a growth rate of 0,75 cm month^-1. No growth estimates could be made for P. olivaceum or D. sargus.     

木兰科6属27种植物的叶片比较解剖学研究

应用石蜡切片技术和光镜观测方法,对采自云南昆明树木园的木兰科6属27种植物的叶片进行了比较解剖学研究。结果表明：（1）木兰科植物的叶片均为异面叶,由表皮、叶肉、叶脉构成;叶肉组织分化为栅栏组织和海绵组织,均具有圆形或近圆形油细胞;叶脉维管束韧皮纤维排列连续或不连续,成环状或轮状。（2）叶片下表皮细胞是否为具明显乳突的细胞和主脉维管束韧皮纤维细胞排列是否连续可明确区分木兰亚科和鹅掌楸亚科。（3）叶片厚度、上表皮厚度、海绵组织厚度可以对秃木兰属和鹅掌楸属进行明确区分,栅栏组织厚度、栅海比、油细胞大小和分布密度等余下性状则在数值上均存在属间重叠现象,不宜作为属间分类性状。（4）基于最大值和最小值进行的聚类结果与传统分类结果吻合度较基于平均值的聚类结果大,最大值和最小值比平均值更能表征研究对象。总之,表皮、下皮、叶肉组织和油细胞等部分叶片解剖学特征在探讨木兰科科下等级如亚科、部分属和部分种的分类地位时具有一定价值。
