南方不同季节育雏鸡舍主要环境因子的变化研究

试验以有窗封闭式笼养育雏鸡舍为对象,于2018年3月~2019年1月开展研究鸡舍内环境的温度、相对湿度、二氧化碳(CO2)、氨气(NH3)、硫化氢(H2S)、二氧化硫(SO2)浓度和细菌总数,并分析环境因子之间的关系。结果显示:不同季节育雏舍内环境温度满足鸡群正常需要,鸡群成活率超过97%。夏季舍内相对湿度达82.48%,并且料肉比高于春季、秋季和冬季。春季、秋季和冬季CO2浓度易超标,不同季节舍内白天温度均高于夜晚,而白天CO2浓度低于夜晚。不同季节舍内环境温度分别与相对湿度、CO2浓度呈负相关和正相关关系。试验表明:有窗封闭式育雏鸡舍内不同季节雏鸡生长发育良好,但夏季湿度过高,春季、秋季和冬季舍内CO2浓度高于标准。建议夏季应合理控制舍内相对湿度,春秋冬季注意平衡舍内的保暖和通风工作。     

长期不同施肥处理对连作高粱生长规律及产量的影响研究

以甜高粱品种‘新高粱3号’为试验材料,采用长期定位施肥方式,研究CK、NK、NP、PK、NPK、M(有机肥)、NPKM、1.5NPKM 8个不同施肥处理对甜高粱生长规律、含糖锤度、叶绿素含量及产量的影响,筛选出适宜新疆干旱区连作甜高粱生长的最佳施肥方式。结果显示,不同施肥处理对连作甜高粱的生育期、农艺性状、叶绿素含量、秸秆含糖锤度及产量均有影响。在不同施肥处理下甜高粱的株高、茎粗、叶片数、秸秆含糖锤度和叶绿素含量在整个生育阶段的变化趋势基本一致,但不同施肥处理之间有差异。成熟期不同施肥处理之间的株高、茎粗和茎秆含糖锤度差异较大、叶片数差异不大,其中NPKM施肥处理的株高、茎粗和含糖锤度分别为224.33 cm、21.47 mm、18.41%,均高于其他施肥处理,并比CK极显著增高了13.86%、39.60%、23.47%。施肥有利于秸秆含糖锤度的积累,在抽穗后第28天时达到最高值,此时,NPKM处理达到18.57%,但抽穗期到成熟期不同茎节含糖锤度在不同施肥处理下的积累规律不一致。各处理的叶绿素含量在整个生育期的变化趋势基本一致,灌浆期时达到最大值,其中NPKM处理叶绿素达到44.62 SPAD。所有施肥处理的秸秆产量、籽粒产量和生物产量均比CK极显著地增加,其中NPKM处理秸秆产量、籽粒产量、生物产量分别达到90.80、4.01、94.81 t·hm^-2,均高于其他处理。施肥有利于增加甜高粱的产量、含糖锤度及经济效益,利用不同施肥方式来缓解高粱连作障碍的过程中应当注重采取不同的肥料配比。综合来看,有机肥、无机肥混合施用(NPKM)是促进干旱区连作高粱生长发育的最佳施肥模式。

Effects of growth factors (EGF,PDGF-BB and TGF-beta 1) on cultured equine epithelial cells and keratocytes: implications for wound healing

Objective The physiologic mechanisms involving growth factors, including PDGF‐BB, EGF, and TGF‐β1, as potent mediators of fibroblasts and epithelial cells in corneal wound healing remain unknown. The goal of this study was to determine culture methods for equine epithelial cells and keratocytes and to investigate how exogenous growth factors influence proliferation of both cell types. Procedures Cell cultures were established from healthy corneas harvested from horses immediately following euthanasia and maintained using standard tissue culture protocols. To determine the effects of PDGF‐BB, EGF, TGF‐β1, keratocytes (1 × 10⁵/well) and epithelial cells (2 × 10⁵/well) were each cultured in 12 well plates and exposed separately to the growth factors. The cells were exposed to concentrations of EGF between 0 and 50 ng/mL; PDGF‐BB between 0 and 75 ng/mL; and TGF‐β1 between 0 and 10 ng/mL. Cell proliferation was measured using ³H‐thymidine assay and differences in growth determined using anova and Tukey's HSD test (P < 0.05). Results Epithelial cell and keratocyte cultures were successfully established. EGF maximally stimulated keratocyte and epithelial cells at 25 ng/mL and 5 ng/mL, respectively. PDGF‐BB maximally stimulated keratocytes and epithelial cells at 50 ng/mL and 5 ng/mL, respectively. TGF‐β1 inhibited keratocytes at 5 ng/mL and 10 ng/mL, and epithelial cells at 1 ng/mL and 2 ng/mL. Conclusions Methods were established to maintain epithelial cells and keratocytes in vitro. PDGF‐BB and EGF stimulate, while TGF‐β1 inhibits the proliferation of epithelial cells and keratocytes. These growth factors may play a role in maintenance and repair of the equine cornea.     

Indicators of success for smart law enforcement in protected areas: A case study for Russian Amur tiger (Panthera tigris altaica) reserves

Although considerable conservation resources have been committed to develop and use law enforcement monitoring and management tools such as SMART, measures of success are ill‐defined and, to date, few reports detail results post‐implementation. Here, we present 4 case studies from protected areas with Amur tigers (Panthera tigris altaica) in Russia, in which indicators of success were defined and evaluated at each. The ultimate goal was an increase in tiger numbers to 1 individual/100 km² at each site. We predicted that improvements in law enforcement effectiveness would be followed by increases in prey numbers and, subsequently, tiger numbers. We used short‐term and long‐term indicators of success, including: (i) patrol team effort and effectiveness; (ii) catch per unit effort indicators (to measure reductions in threats); and (iii) changes in target species numbers. In addition to implementing a monitoring system, we focused on improving law enforcement management using an adaptive management process. Over 4 years, we noted clear increases in patrol effort and a partial reduction in threats. Although we did not detect clear trends in ungulate numbers, tiger populations remained stable or increased, suggesting that poaching of tigers may be more limiting than prey depletion. Increased effectiveness is needed before a clear reduction in threats can be noted, and more time is needed before detecting responses in target populations. Nonetheless, delineation of concrete goals and indicators of success provide a means of evaluating progress and weaknesses. Such monitoring should be a central component of law enforcement strategies for protected areas.

为探明黄河三角洲新生湿地土壤微生物分布特征,选取盐地碱蓬(Suaedasalsa)、柽柳(Tamarix chinensis)、芦苇(Phragmites communis)和拂子茅(Calamagrostis epigeios)4种湿地植被土壤,分春、夏、秋3个季节对其中细菌、真菌和放线菌数量组成和分布特征进行了研究。结果表明:不同植被类型湿地土壤中各类微生物数量差别明显,但总体上均偏少,而且优势种类非常明显,以细菌为主,放线菌居中,真菌最少;不同微生物数量上具有明显的季节分布特征,除拂子茅湿地细菌群落外,其他各群落数量均为夏季高,春、秋低;湿地土壤中微生物总量分布存在明显的根际效应,其中细菌的根际效应最为明显;土壤中氮和磷(总氮、总磷、速效氮、速效磷)含量对细菌的数量影响最明显;真菌分布与氮的含量关系密切,但与磷素关系不大;放线菌分布与氮含量相关性小,与磷素呈负相关;微生物数量与土壤pH值和电导率呈一定程度的负相关。本区土壤微生物分布与植被类型、土壤盐分和养分关系密切,且具有明显的季节动态。     

Serum vascular endothelial growth factor in dogs with soft tissue sarcomas

This work aimed to evaluate serum vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in 25 dogs with soft tissue sarcoma, and in 30 healthy dogs. Blood was collected once time from the control animals and three times, in the same way, from animals with sarcoma. Blood count was performed in the blood collected, and serum VEGF was measured by enzyme‐linked immunosorbent assay quantitative method. Serum VEGF in control animals was similar to patients with soft tissue sarcoma. There was a reduction in serum VEGF after the sarcoma resection. There was positive correlation between serum VEGF and neutrophil counts, and negative between VEGF and hemoglobin content in animals with sarcoma. Animals with hemangiopericytoma showed higher serum VEGF levels compared to the patients with malignant peripheral nerve sheath. Circulating blood cells can contribute to elevate VEGF serum concentrations in dogs with soft tissue sarcomas and a possible role of VEGF in the angiogenesis of these tumors.
