枣黄化根蘖苗成因分析

为了探究枣黄化根蘖苗的成因,对其黄化根蘖苗、正常根蘖苗和母株之间的形态学指标、叶绿素及矿质元素含量和相关基因表达水平进行了分析。结果表明,与正常植株比,黄化根蘖苗形态学指标没有明显变化,但叶绿素含量及叶绿素a/b比值显著降低,矿质元素N、P、K、Mn、Cu、Zn、Fe含量显著增高,但Ca和Mg差异不显著。同时,AFLP分析表明,黄化根蘖苗与正常植株在基因组水平没出现显著差异;但cDNA-AFLP和RT-PCR分析表明在转录水平上,黄化根蘖苗中酰基转移酶基因表达增加,Ty3-gypsy反转录转座子基因和GAGA结合转录激活因子基因表达降低。综合分析认为,枣根蘖苗的黄化可能是与叶绿素合成转录相关的反转录转座子和GAGA结合转录激活因子基因表达降低,影响了叶绿素合成,使植株最终表现黄化;同时黄化植株中与光呼吸相关的一些基因,如酰基转移酶基因表达相应增加以适应这种逆境胁迫,说明这些基因间存在着相互适应的调控网络。     

The Estimation of Soil Trace Elements Distribution and Soil-Plant-Animal Continuum in Relation to Trace Elements Status of Sheep in Huangcheng Area of Qilian Mountain Grassland,China

The purpose of the present study was to survey contents of trace elements of Cu, Mn, Fe, and Zn in the surface layer (0-20 cm) in the soil, pasture and serum of sheep in Huangcheng area of Qilian mountain grassland, China. Also the soil-plant-animal continuum was analyzed. Soil (n=300), pasture (n=60), and blood serum samples from sheep (n=480) were collected from Huangcheng area of Qilian mountain grassland, China. The contents of trace element in the samples were analyzed by atomic absorption spectrophotometer after digestion. The soil trace elements density distribution shows a ladder-like pattern distribution. Equations developed in the present study for prediction of Fe (R²=0.943) and Zn (R²=0.882) had significant R² values.     

粒径大小对含钾矿物钾素释放的影响

将含钾矿物(包括黑云母、白云母和正长石)研磨成粒径分别为251~840、151~250、74~150及74μm的颗粒,采用10mmol/L酒石酸和10mmol/L草酸连续振荡浸提的方法,研究粒径对含钾矿物钾素释放的影响。结果表明:与粒径为251~840μm颗粒相比,粒径为151~250、74~150及74μm的黑云母经过酒石酸和草酸浸提后的钾素释放量分别增加-9%、34%、129%和-21%、20%、152%;白云母经过酒石酸和草酸浸提后的钾素释放量分别增加246%、495%、566%和288%、511%、610%;正长石经过酒石酸和草酸浸提后的钾素释放量分别增加32%、167%、417%和182%、675%、1 687%。白云母和正长石中钾素的释放量随粒径的减小显著增加,黑云母则随粒径的减小呈先减少后增加趋势。

Effects of dietary manganese supplementation on nutrient digestibility and production performance in male sika deer (Cervus Nippon)

This study aimed to investigate the effects of manganese (Mn) supplementation on nutrient digestibility and antler growth in male sika deer. Twenty 3‐year‐old male sika deer were divided into four groups (Control, T40, T80 and T120). The control diet contained 22.2 mg Mn/kg. The treatment diets were supplemented with 40, 80 and 120 mg of Mn/kg (provided as Mn methionine). The results showed that the digestibility of dry matter and crude protein in the T80 group was greater than other groups. Higher digestibility of neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber was observed in the T80 group than in the control group. Plasma Mn concentrations in the T80 and T120 groups were higher (P < 0.01) than control and T40 group (P < 0.01). The concentration of Mn in feces was increased with increasing Mn amount. Average daily gain of fresh antler and dry antler of T80 was greater than other groups, especially the control group (P < 0.05). In conclusion, the suitable level of Mn supplementation was found to be 80 mg/kg (total Mn content 103.4 mg/kg dry matter), which significantly increased antler daily gain and feed digestibility in 3‐year‐old sika deer.     

Liver mitochondrial oxygen consumption and proton leak kinetics in broilers supplemented with dietary copper or zinc following coccidiosis challenge

Mitochondrial respiration was assessed in sixteen 7‐day‐old broilers as a subset of a larger study assessing the effects of Cu and Zn supplementation above requirements with a coccidiosis challenge on gain/feed ratio. The birds were selected from four treatments (four birds/treatment): a control diet (Cu 15 mg/kg and Zn 60 mg/kg) + coccidiosis challenge (CC), a Cu diet with 245 mg/kg Cu from tribasic copper chloride (TBCC) + CC, a negative control diet (Cu 15 mg/kg and Zn 60 mg/kg) ‐ CC and a Zn diet with 2000 mg/kg Zn from ZnO. The diets were composed of 49% corn, 40% soybean meal, 6.2% vegetable oil (diet dry matter = 90.62%, crude protein = 21.37%, fat = 7.7%, metabolizable energy = 12.1 MJ/day) and were fed for 14 days. Birds were dissected, and approximately one gram of liver tissue was used for mitochondrial oxygen consumption and proton leak kinetics assays. Respiratory control ratio and mitochondrial proton leak assessed by calculating rates of oxygen consumption at 175mV membrane potential were greater for the negative control group, but there were no differences in average gain/feed among treatments. In summary, broilers that did not undergo coccidiosis challenge had lower proton leak and higher respiratory control ratio. However, the impact of supplementation of Cu and Zn above requirements did not appear to prevent changes in respiratory control ratio and proton leak kinetics with coccidiosis challenge.     

Soil Reserves of Potassium: Release and Availability to Lolium perenne in Relation to Clay Minerals in Six Cropland Soils from Eastern China

An 8‐month greenhouse experiment with ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) examined the relationship between the dynamics of potassium (K) reserves in soil and changes in clay minerals, using X‐ray diffraction. The capacity of soil to release K was consistent with its ability to supply it and was the highest in the soil samples collected from Laiyang (H₁T₂a), Harbin (H₁T₁) and Beibei (H₂T₄), followed by the sample from Jiangyan (H₁T₂b), and the lowest in the samples from Gao'an (H₂T₃a) and Wangcheng (H₂T₃b). Removal of soil K decreases the intensity of reflections for illite and increases that for interstratified clay minerals. The centre of gravity values of the clay fractions was significantly negatively correlated to the depletion of soil K reserves, as ascertained through chemical extraction or through plant action. The quantitative regression equations between the centre of gravity values and the dynamics of soil reserves of K can be used for predicting the release and plant availability of K even without growing a crop.

适宜无机盐及浓度抑制麦胚脂肪酶存在时油水界面张力

为了探明无机盐稳定化脂肪酶的潜在机理,该文以小麦胚芽脂肪酶为研究对象,基于界面酶学的分析方法,研究添加浓度介于1.0×10-9~1.0×10-2 mol/L的Na~+、K+、Ca~(2+)、Mg~(2+)的氯化物对小麦胚芽脂肪酶存在的油-水界面特性的影响。结果表明,当小麦胚芽脂肪酶体系浓度为1.7×10-6 mol/L时,一价金属中Na~+更有利于抑制油-水界面的表面张力(P0.05),对麦胚脂肪酶存在时的油水界面特性影响也较大;二价金属离子Ca~(2+)对界面张力的影响趋势与一价离子不同,在高浓度时反而增加界面张力;当油水界面上存在脂肪酶的催化底物(三油酸甘油酯)和产物(油酸)时,添加浓度分别为10-6、10-6、10-4和10-9mol/L的Na~+、K~+、Ca~(2+)、Mg~(2+)均可一定程度上降低油水界面张力,从而降低麦胚脂肪酶的作用效果,三油酸甘油酯存在时Mg~(2+)的作用效果最明显(P0.05),油酸存在时Na+的作用效果最明显(P0.05)。综上,无机盐金属离子主要通过影响麦胚脂肪酶在油水界面的聚集行为及底物结构状态起到钝化麦胚脂肪酶的作用,该结果可为麦胚脂肪酶存在时界面的活性调控及麦胚的稳定化处理提供参考。
