The Relationship Between Plant Community Characteristics and Soil Organic Matter Content of Sedentary Grazing Pastures in a Typical Steppe

In order to discuss the relationship between the characteristics of plant communities and the content of topsoil organic matter under the condition of two-season sedentary grazing, authors of this paper selected a Stipa krylovii steppe for research and studied the plant community characteristics and the topsoil organic matter content. The results showed that in the sedentary grazing area, the perennial plant species decreased, the annual plant species increased, and the topsoil organic matter content decreased. There were a negative correlation between plant biomass and topsoil organic matter content, and a positive correlation between total coverage and topsoil organic matter content. The change of plant community characteristics in the sedentary grazing area was related to the implementation of the system of transferring the pasture use rights to the herdsmen and controlled grazing.     

An economically based evaluation index for perennial and short‐term ryegrasses in New Zealand dairy farm systems

Grazed pastures based on ryegrass species provide most of the feed for dairy cattle in New Zealand. There are many cultivars of perennial (Lolium perenne), annual and Italian (L. multiflorum), and hybrid (L. boucheanum) ryegrasses available for dairy farmers to use in pasture renewal. This study describes an index which ranks ryegrass cultivars relative to a genetic base according to the estimated economic value (EV) of seasonal dry matter (DM) traits. A farm system model was used to derive EVs (Grazed pastures based on ryegrass species provide most of the feed for dairy cattle in New Zealand. There are many cultivars of perennial (Lolium perenne), annual and Italian (L. multiflorum), and hybrid (L. boucheanum) ryegrasses available for dairy farmers to use in pasture renewal. This study describes an index which ranks ryegrass cultivars relative to a genetic base according to the estimated economic value (EV) of seasonal dry matter (DM) traits. A farm system model was used to derive EVs ($ ha^?1 calculated as change in operating profit divided by unit change of the trait) for additional DM produced in different seasons of the year in four regions. The EV of early spring DM was consistently high across all regions, whereas EV for late spring DM was moderate to low. Genotype × environment analysis revealed significant reranking of DM yield among ryegrass cultivars across regions. Hence, separate performance values (PVs) were calculated for two mega‐environments and then combined with the corresponding season and region EV to calculate the overall EV for twenty‐three perennial ryegrass and fifteen short‐term ryegrass cultivars. The difference in operating profit between the highest ranked and lowest ranked perennial ryegrass cultivar ranged from $556 ha^?1 to $863 ha^?1 year^?1 depending on region. For short‐term ryegrasses used for winter feed, the corresponding range was $394 to $478 ha^?1 year^?1. Using PV for DM yield, it was estimated that plant improvement in perennial ryegrass has added $12–$18 ha^?1 year^?1 (depending on region) operating profit on dairy farms since the mid‐1960s.     

草原生态环境发展与创新——由“补助奖励”到“精确放牧”

为增进草原生态保护政策的有效性,本研究考察了国内草原"补助奖励"政策的实施效果与存在问题。具体以268个牧区半牧区县牧业人口、牲畜超载率和农牧民纯收入变化情况为研究对象,运用比较分析对比"补助奖励"政策前后全国草畜平衡状况,并结合BGLI模型计算"补助奖励"政策的实施对草原超载问题的改善情况。结果表明"补助奖励"政策对全国的超载现状有很好的改善作用,增加了牧区半牧区县的人口和牧民纯收入,尤其对半牧区县的正面影响更加突出,牧区半牧区县整体对该政策的满意度很高。但无差别化的补助标准在一定程度上造成了"补助奖励"政策实施效率的低下,预期效果并不理想。因而本研究认为,应通过建立数据库的办法实施"精确放牧"政策,并提出先减后补,根据超载程度做好多补,中小牧户为补贴主体等建议。     

基于农牧户视角的荒漠化治理中退牧还草技术综合评价——以内蒙古鄂托克旗为例

农牧户作为退牧还草技术的实施者和重要利益相关者,其对技术的感知度和认可度对于调整和完善退牧还草技术具有重要的现实意义。本文以草地荒漠化典型区域——内蒙古鄂托克旗为例,采用主观层次分析法和客观熵权法相结合的方法,构建包括技术成熟度、技术应用难度、技术相宜性、技术效益和技术推广潜力5个方面的退牧还草技术综合评价指标体系,基于农牧户视角对内蒙古鄂托克旗退牧还草技术进行综合评价。结果表明:1)基于农牧户视角的鄂托克旗退牧还草技术综合评价结果为0.469 8,说明农牧户对于退牧还草技术的综合评价处于中等水平,技术满意度一般,技术可持续性较弱。具体表现为农牧户对于技术自身的草地生态系统退化修复功能持以肯定态度,生态效益评价较高;而对于经济效益和技术可持续性评价较低。2)分项退牧还草技术评价结果由高到低的排序为:技术相宜性、技术效益、技术成熟度、技术应用难度、技术推广潜力。3)分区域研究得出,鄂托克旗退牧还草技术综合评价的区域差异性较小。因此,退牧还草技术的综合评价结果能够反映农牧户对于该项技术的满意程度,为退牧还草技术的持续有效实施提供参考。     

冬季低水温鳜短期饥饿和摄食的生理状态比较

为比较鳜短期饥饿与摄食的生理状态,实验以我国鳜主产区广东省的冬季水温为参照,在(13±1)°C的水温条件下,选取体质量为(84.13±0.14) g的鳜90尾,分为饥饿组(饥饿15 d)和摄食组(摄食15 d),实验结束后测定各项理化指标。结果显示：(1)摄食组鳜的体质量、肝糖原、全鱼与肌肉的粗蛋白、粗脂肪含量均显著高于饥饿组,摄食组增重7.54%,而饥饿组减重8.39%。(2)摄食组鳜血浆谷丙转氨酶和谷草转氨酶活性显著低于饥饿组,但甘油三酯含量显著高于饥饿组,各类血细胞数量与血糖水平则无明显差异。(3)摄食组鳜的消化酶活性显著高于饥饿组,肠道组织结构发育更好。(4)摄食组鳜肝脏抗氧化能力显著高于饥饿组,且饥饿组部分肝细胞有明显的结构损伤,脂滴数量显著少于摄食组。(5)摄食组鳜的血浆溶菌酶活性和血浆、脾脏、肾脏免疫球蛋白M含量显著高于饥饿组。(6)摄食组与饥饿组鳜背肌氨基酸组成无显著差异。但脂肪酸组成有显著差异,摄食组鳜背肌饱和脂肪酸与单不饱和脂肪酸总量显著低于饥饿组,而多不饱和脂肪酸与高不饱和脂肪酸总量显著高于饥饿组。研究表明,在本实验条件下,摄食组增重而饥饿组减重,两种处理增重量差...     

全放牧婆罗门牛和BMY牛的超数排卵效果及激素水平比较

为了比较婆罗门牛和BMY牛的雌二醇(E2)、孕酮(P4)水平及胚胎生产潜力,并探讨MOET技术在BMY牛扩繁中的应用前景,采用进口激素(日本产FSH 24~36 mg+美国产PG 35 mg)和国产激素(国产FSH 10~12 mg+国产PG 0.8 mg)对全放牧婆罗门牛和BMY牛进行超排,并于超排前(同期发情第7天)、超排开始、超排第3天、超排发情当天和胚胎回收当天采集血液,采用RIA法分析血浆中的E2和P4水平。结果表明,BMY牛的黄体数和获胚(卵)数、可用胚数分别较婆罗门牛高2.09个和0.95、0.36枚,但差异不显著(P>0.05);BMY牛的排卵率较婆罗门牛高18.46%(P<0.01),而可用胚率则较婆罗门牛低2.55%(P<0.01)。BMY牛在5个处理时段的E2和P4平均值分别较婆罗门牛高0.58 pg/mL(P<0.01)和1.44 ng/mL(P>0.05),在各处理时段的P4水平变化规律几乎与婆罗门牛一致,E2/P4值为婆罗门牛的5.16倍。结果提示,BMY母牛的E2和P4水平高于婆罗门牛,在激素水平和繁殖性能方面表现出一定的杂种优势;E2水平低是婆罗门牛发情微弱和排卵率低的主要原因之一;在同等放牧管理和超排处理条件下,婆罗门牛及其杂种BMY牛对外源激素的敏感性基本一致,具有同等的胚胎生产潜力。     

放牧对明油子-扭黄茅灌草丛生物多样性的影响

2005年，在云南元谋干热河谷采用样方调查法及生物多样性分析法研究了放牧干扰对明油子Dodonaea viscosa-扭黄茅Heteropogon contortus灌草丛生物多样性的影响。结果表明，无放牧干扰的明油子-扭黄茅灌草丛植物和节肢动物种类最丰富，节肢动物群落优势度最低，而多样性和均匀度最高，优势种为扁平虹臭蚁Iridomyrmex anceps；曾经过度放牧的明油子-扭黄茅灌草丛植物种类和节肢动物种类最贫乏，灌木-草本层节肢动物多样性最低；长期存在一定放牧干扰的明油子-扭黄茅灌草丛植物种类和节肢动物种类比较丰富，但节肢动物群落优势度最高而均匀度最低；经受或存在放牧干扰的明油子，扭黄茅灌草丛林下以刺吸类昆虫占优势，地表以迈氏小家蚁Monomorium mayri占优势。过度放牧导致明油子-扭黄茅灌草丛种类组成发生变化，生物多样性大大降低，群落趋于不稳定，栖息环境出现退化。放牧干扰对地表节肢动物群落的影响比对灌木-草本层节肢动物群落的影响突出。表6参21

对巴什拜羊春季牧食行为进行24 h 的连续观测表明,巴什拜羊昼夜牧食行为活动节律:采食时间263.3±11.2 min,反刍时间298.7±56.0 min,睡眠时间255.6±37.1 min,运动时间391.4±4.6 min,静立时间231±17.0 min.巴什拜羊的日反刍周期数7.22±0.56次,每周期持续时间35.52±5.98 min,全天总食团数265.62±7.40个,每食团咀嚼时间31.31±2.17 min,采食前进速度3.8±1.0 m/s,采食速度60.9±6.3口/s.全天总食团数265.62±7.40个,每食团咀嚼时间31.31±2.17 min,每个食团咀嚼次数42.69±5.67次,与一般绵羊全天逆呕食团及每个食团咀嚼次数差异很大,这可能与巴什拜羊消化机能强有关.巴什拜羊的前进中的采食速度较快.说明草场退化严重以及巴什拜羊的牧食能力较强.     

长肢秀体溞对富营养化水体藻类的生物操纵

在实验室和开放生态系统中研究了长肢秀体溞(D iaphanosoma leuchtenbergianumF ischer)对斜生栅藻(Scem edesmus obliquusTurp)、铜绿微囊藻(M icrocystis aeruginosa)和蛋白核小球藻(Chlorella pyrenoidosaCh ick)的牧食力和对水体中浮游动物和藻类数量、生物量、群落结构及水体中理化性质的影响,结果表明:藻类生物量在一定范围内,长肢秀体溞的摄食速度随藻类生物量增加而增加,藻类生物量超过一定值(即饱和值)时,摄食速度随之下降。长肢秀体溞对斜生栅藻和小球藻具有较高的选择性,对铜绿微囊藻的选择性较差。水泥池中每升水放养长肢秀体溞600个以上,即可对水体中浮游动物和藻类的数量、生物量、群落结构产生显著的影响,同时降低水体中总氮、总磷和CODMn的浓度,增加水体透明。7月份之前,可以利用放养长肢秀体溞的方法来控制水体中藻类。     

从“久卧伤气”探讨慢性阻塞性肺疾病合并坠积性肺炎发病机制

长期卧床的慢性阻塞性肺疾病（chronic obstructive pulmonary disease,COPD）患者,痰液等分泌物易阻塞于呼吸道,甚则肺部形成瘀血,极易引发坠积性肺炎。中医认为“久卧伤气”,气伤则虚、气伤痰阻、气伤血瘀,终致痰瘀互结。COPD患者肺、脾、肾虚,痰瘀交阻,久卧于床则加重三脏之虚,痰瘀益甚而合并坠积性肺炎。故从COPD并发坠积性肺炎的中医病机出发,深入剖析“久卧伤气”与COPD并发坠积性肺炎的关系,以期为临床诊疗提供理论基础。
