栉孔扇贝异精雌核发育四倍体早期胚胎发育的细胞学荧光显微观察

用1500μW/cm2的紫外线照射长牡蛎(Crassostrea gigas)精子60 s以进行灭活处理,并使之与栉孔扇贝(Chlamys farreri)卵子受精,在卵子受精后排出第一极体前用6-DMAP(50 mg/L)处理受精卵,持续处理35 min,抑制第一极体和第二极体的排放,诱导异精雌核发育四倍体。采用二脒基苯基吲哚(DAPI)荧光染色显微观察法,对灭活的长牡蛎精子诱导的栉孔扇贝雌核发育四倍体早期胚胎发育过程进行细胞学观察。结果表明:经紫外线灭活过的长牡蛎精子进入栉孔扇贝卵子后发生轻微膨胀;在第一次卵裂中期,精核形成一致密的染色质小体(DCB),位于两组分开的母本染色体之间,不参与核分裂;第一次卵裂结束时DCB滞留于两卵裂球的分裂沟上或进入其中一分裂球中;第二次卵裂过程中,DCB的去向与第一次卵裂时基本一致。6-DMAP处理有效地抑制了第一极体和第二极体的排出,从而使雌核四倍化。对担轮幼虫染色体倍性分析结果表明,通过本方法可以获得6.25%的四倍体幼虫。本研究还对灭活的异源长牡蛎精子诱导栉孔扇贝雌核发育四倍体过程中产生的复杂倍性、核物质分离紊乱及多精附卵现象进行了观察和分析。     

瘤背石磺的生态习性观察

2003年4～7月,作者对江苏射阳河口滩涂的瘤背石磺作了生态调查,并在室内进行温箱试养,观察其运动、呼吸、消化、生殖及对刺激物的反应等。结果表明,瘤背石磺栖息在潮上带滩涂,其每千克土壤中含N 0．325g、P 0．020g、K 0．521g、Cl 0．084g、有机质7．68g,土壤pH值9．43,含盐量1．615;在温度20～28℃,湿度接近100％时瘤背石磺才出来活动和摄食;在人工饲养下,瘤背石磺喜食螺旋藻。从解剖上看,它用呼吸腔呼吸,外套膜切片中有钙质颗粒,说明该物种是腹足纲动物由水生向陆生过渡的类型,体现了肺螺亚纲的特征。     

棉花皱缩花叶病的初步研究

2007年湖北荆州地区一些棉田棉花叶片上发生一种新的棉花病害,暂定名为棉花皱缩花叶病。通过症状描述、电镜观察和生物学接种对其进行了初步分析。结果显示:该病害症状疑似病毒病,但与已经报道的棉花病毒病症状都不相同。电镜观察显示,病株叶片汁液中存在4种杆状病毒颗粒,大小分别约是18nm×300nm、18nm×500nm、18nm×800nm、18nm×1100nm。生物学接种结果表明,该病不能经种子、棉蚜、烟粉虱、汁液摩擦4种方式传播。     

犬细小病毒病的临床诊疗效果研究

犬细小病毒病是由犬细小病毒（cpv）引起的一种急性传染病，发病率和死亡率比较高，达10％～50％，自愈率〈5％．笔者在近一年中的犬病治疗过程中用犬细小病毒快速诊断试纸条确诊为犬细小病毒病的有16例。经过临床治疗得出，除了采用高免血清和对症治疗外，治愈率的高低在很大程度上取决于输液，此外对病犬的护理正确精细与否也有一定的关系。本文重点介绍了犬细小病毒病的临床症状、剖检变化、鉴别诊断、治疗情况及治疗体会。     

甜菜花叶病毒病研究之二——感病细胞超微结构观察

 对不同时期感染甜菜花叶病毒(BtMV)的叶片,进行病理变化系列观察。早期侵染(7天前)的细胞质、细胞器均无变化,随着症状发展,风轮状内含体、束状内含体、细胞核卫星体,细胞质泡囊化旁类似病毒的束状结构,20天达到了高峰,风轮状及束状内含体一直持续两个月还存在。田间样品也观察到了典型的风轮状及束状内含体。细胞核卫星体出现很少。侵染后期,细胞质减少,叶绿体比相应健株提前出现淀粉粒,噬锇颗粒等,基粒片层也提前消解,表现细胞提前衰老的特征。此外细胞内还有许多健株没有的泡状结构。一种为旁壁体,可能与细胞壁加厚有关;一种为多重泡体的叠加,可能是液泡的吞噬作用加强与外源物质(BtMV)侵入有关;另外还有一种可能是过氧化物酶体或线粒体在病毒诱导下泡囊化,其作用不清楚。

陕北黄土高原多沙粗沙区乡村聚落土壤水蚀定位观测研究

为研究乡村聚落的土壤侵蚀,在陕北榆林、绥德、延安建立观测站,于2003年对乡村聚落中的户间道路、户间空地、院落在降雨时的次径流泥沙含量、平均含沙量、次侵蚀强度及观测期降雨形成的总侵蚀强度,进行了观测与分析。其观测结果,均说明户间道路、户间空地径流平均含沙量较大,榆林为29.37g/L、29.96g/L,缓德为21.06g/L、17.53g/L、延安为54.6g/L2、9.18g/L,而院落平均径流含沙量较小,榆林、绥德、延安分别为9.47g/L、8.64g/L、14.87g/L。观测期降雨侵蚀总强度,三个观测站均以户间道路最大,分别为1142t/km2、2156.6t/km26、285.7t/km2;户间空地次之,分别为744.5t/km2、1192.6t/km2、1953.2t/km2;院落较小,分别为161.1t/km23、78.7t/km2、1274.3t/km2。说明乡村聚落土壤侵蚀不可忽视,应加强防治。     

核盘菌在亚麻上侵染致病的微观过程

 第1次利用电子显微镜对核盘菌在亚麻叶片上侵染致病的微观过程进行深入细致的观察。结果表明,该菌在侵入叶表面之前可能产生某些酶类物质来软化溶解亚麻叶表面角质层,以帮助该菌对叶表面的侵入。本文还对菌丝和子囊孢子侵染过程的异同进行了比较。     

Critical Observations on BSE Control in Italy

Eleven native sheep, 1–2 years old, of both sexes were randomly divided into two groups, 6 sheep being allocated to the experimental group and 5 serving as controls. The sheep in the experimental group were fed 80% Tribulus terrestris and 20% alfalfa hay and wheat straw, while the control sheep were given a mixture of 40% alfalfa hay and 60% wheat straw. Clinical signs of hepatogenous photosensitivity were observed from day 11, including reddening and crust formation on the muzzle, nose, ears and eyelids, depression, weight loss, icterus, conjunctivitis, and yellow discoloration of the urine. Laboratory findings on weekly samples indicated significant differences (p<0.05) in white blood cell count, total plasma protein and fibrinogen, total and direct bilirubin, blood urea nitrogen and creatinine concentrations, and aspartate aminotransferase and alkaline phosphatase activities. There were no significant differences in the packed cell volume, in the neutrophil, lymphocyte or eosinophil counts, or in the serum calcium, phosphorus, potassium, sodium or chloride concentrations. At necropsy of the experimental animals, there were various degrees of generalized icterus and the livers were swollen and discolored by bile pigment. Histopathological examination revealed varying amounts of crystalloid material in the bile ducts and renal tubules, hepatocellular degeneration, biliary fibrosis and proliferation, renal tubular necrosis and focal necrosis of cardiac muscle.     

A Bayesian approach to the accuracy of clinical observations

The accuracy of clinical observations was estimated using Bayesian latent-class models with two or more independent tests. Four veterinarians carried out systematic independent clinical examinations on 155 pigs in three herds. Based on the results of binary recordings of clinical observations on dullness, poor body condition (PBC), skin lesions, lameness, respiratory disease, and diarrhea, a latent disease state for each clinical disease was estimated using Gibbs sampling.

The accuracy of the clinical observations differed for the four observers and for different clinical signs. Population parameters were estimated from a Bayesian hierarchical model, and the accuracy of a random observer was calculated. We concluded that the accuracy of the veterinarians in this study substantiated the need to pursue more-precise definitions of the clinical findings and that larger sample sizes would be needed to provide reasonable variance estimates. Finally, we concluded that the uncertainty in the clinical decision-making process (starting with the clinical examination) needs to be represented fully.
