头足类分类鉴定的研究进展

头足类作为软体动物门中的重要组成,不仅具有很高的经济价值,而且还是海洋生态系统组成中不可或缺的一部分,加大对头足类的开发利用已成为世界各国的目标之一。头足类种类繁多,通常是抹香鲸等高等动物的重要饵料,因此其分类鉴定显得尤为重要。本文从方法和材料两个方面对头足类的分类鉴定进行了系统的回顾与总结。传统的外部形态学与生态学在头足类的分类鉴定已经相当成熟,耳石是头足类信息的良好载体,可作为种类和种群划分的主要依据;角质颚是头足类的主要摄食器官,具有稳定的形态特征、良好的信息储存以及耐腐蚀等特点,不同种类之间有着显著的差别,是分类鉴定的良好材料。头足类的分类鉴定要在发挥传统分类学优势的同时,加大分子水平上的研究力度,并将二者结合,相互佐证。此外,还应加强对头足类硬组织的研究和基础资料积累,并建立完整的数据库及检索系统,使其在分类鉴定中得到更加有效的应用。     

地膜覆盖栽培对春小麦叶片衰老特性的影响

为了揭示春小麦在地膜栽培条件下是否早衰的问题,采用管栽模拟试验的方法,研究了地膜覆盖和露地栽培条件下春小麦叶片的叶绿素、蛋白质、叶片丙二醛(M DA)含量和细胞质膜相对透性的变化。结果表明,采用地膜覆盖栽培方法,在春小麦生长前期能明显提高叶片叶绿素和蛋白质的含量(日均增加量分别比露地春小麦高31.49%和7.94%),但后期又会加速其降解速率;M DA含量和细胞质膜相对透性均表现为覆膜处理高于露地处理(日均增加量分别比露地春小麦高71.96%~11.78%和2.42%~9.57%)。说明覆膜栽培可使春小麦提前进入正常衰老阶段,但由于其增温、保湿等效应,使春小麦生长量增加,穗粒数和穗粒重比露地春小麦提高22.95%和27.68%,表现出良好的增产效应。     

池蝶蚌组织蛋白酶L1-like基因的克隆及表达特征分析

为了解淡水贝类是否存在组织蛋白酶L的亚型及其亚型的免疫相关作用,本实验利用已构建的池蝶蚌血细胞全长c DNA文库,筛选获得与之同源的EST序列,结合RACE技术进一步克隆了池蝶蚌一个新的组织蛋白酶L基因的c DNA全长,命名为Hs Cts L1-like基因(Gen Bank登录号为KF015273)。该序列全长为1280 bp,5′-非翻译区(5′UTR)为31 bp,3′-非翻译区(3′UTR)为256 bp,开放阅读框区(ORF)为993 bp,编码330个氨基酸,预测蛋白相对分子量为36.86 ku,理论等电点为6.23。序列分析结果显示,Hs Cts L1-like与其他软体动物相对应序列具有共同结构特征,包含信号肽、前肽抑制域和成熟肽三部分,在其他物种中已鉴定的Cts L签名序列标签(ERF/WNIN、GNFD、GCXGG和QCHN等)在Hs Cts L1-like中均可找到。其氨基酸序列同缢蛏Cts L1(AGL33704.1)同源性最高,达67%;与报道的三角帆蚌Cts L(ADV03094)和池蝶蚌中另一个Cts L(AEX88474)仅均为52.91%;系统进化分析表明,Hs Cts L1-like与缢蛏、长牡蛎和合浦珠母贝的Cts L1聚为一分支,推测Hs Cts L1-like属于Cts L家族中的亚型1。实时荧光定量PCR(q RT-PCR)检测显示,Hs Cts L1-like m RNA在肝脏中表达量最高,其次是卵巢和精巢。注射鳗弧菌后,血细胞和肝脏Hs Cts L1-like m RNA转录水平显著升高,暗示其是一个免疫有关的基因,参与了池蝶蚌的先天免疫应答反应。     

FLOODING STRESS: The Effects of Planting Pattern and Water Regime on Root Morphology,Physiology and Grain Yield of Rice

Field experiments were conducted over two growing seasons to investigate the effects of variations in water regime and planting pattern on the growth of rice plant roots and shoots and on yield. Four water regimes were evaluated with split plot design: intermittent flooding during the vegetative stage only (IF‐V); intermittent flooding extending into the reproductive stage (IF‐R); not flooded (NF); and continuously flooded (CF), interacting with three different planting patterns: single seedling per hill with wider 30 × 30 cm spacing (P1); single seedling per hill with closer 20 × 20 cm spacing (P2); and three to four seedlings per hill with 20 × 20 cm spacing (P3). The treatment combination CF/P3 corresponds most closely with current conventional practice. The other combinations were evaluated to contribute to a better understanding of the effects of the two parameters studied, respectively and together. IF‐V/P1 was considered as an approximation of System of Rice Intensification (SRI) practice. This study found that the combination of singly transplanted seedlings, both P1 and P2, with the IF‐V water regime improved root length density, root physiological activity, and chlorophyll content of the upper and lower leaves, leading to higher grain yield compared with the other treatment combinations. With continuous flooding (CF), P2 gave 23 % more yield compared with the P3 planting pattern. Combining IF‐V and P2 produced 32 % more grain yield compared with the CF/P3 treatment. These results showed a synergistic effect on grain yield from reduced intra‐hill competition and IF‐V water management. In these trials, there was no significant yield difference between the IF‐V/P1 and CF/P3 treatments. Wider spacing improved the performance of individual hills when grown under IF‐V water regimes, but tiller number per unit area remained a dominant determinant of yield. The yield reduction observed for CF/P1 compared with CF/P3 indicated that in more hypoxic CF soils, denser plant populations can produce more than sparser ones, whereas the latter benefit from more aerobic soil conditions. Intermittent irrigation during the vegetative growth stage and transplanting single seedlings/hill are major elements of SRI methodology. These findings contribute to an understanding of why SRI methods can produce the higher yields reported. A consideration of the effects of interaction between planting pattern and water regime shows the need to establish empirically the optimum values for these treatments according to varietal, soil and climatic characteristics for the greatest yield response.

Evaluation of breeding strategies for resistance and tolerance to late blight in potato by means of simulation

A field experiment with three potato cultivars, where plants were inoculated withPhytophthora infestans, was used to parameterize a model of potato growth and blight population dynamics. The model was validated by accurately simulating a field experiment conducted in another year. Sensitivity analysis with the model showed that late cultivars are longer able to maintain a green canopy in the presence of disease, but still suffer more yield loss than early cultivars. The level of partial resistance of a cultivar was more important than its level of tolerance, and other plant characteristics. The model calculations showed that only between 4 and 15% of the yield loss in the experiments was due to accelerated leaf senescence caused by the disease; the major part of the loss was caused by lesion coverage of leaves.     

Activity of glutathione S-transferase toward some herbicides and its regulation by benoxacor in non-embryogenic callus and in vitro regenerated tissues of Zea mays

A procedure was developed to obtain non-embryogenic callus and regenerated lines from root segments of Zea mays grown in aseptic conditions. The activity of glutathione-S-transferases (GSTs), for non-embryogenic callus, was determined toward 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (CDNB) and it was compared with that obtained for corn seedlings grown without hormones. For the callus masses, increases of specific activity toward CDNB and the kinetic parameter V_max were observed with respect to corn seedlings. The procedure permitted the regenerating of tissues from callus explants, therefore the GST(CDNB) activity and the effect of the safener benoxacor on its expression were investigated for the regenerated tissues grown in agarized substrate and in liquid medium. These explants showed a constitutive GST(CDNB) activity higher than corn seedlings and this activity was increased, for both tissues, in response to the presence of the safener benoxacor in the growing medium. The GST activity for the above tissues was also assayed toward benoxacor and terbuthylazine, metolachlor and fluorodifen herbicides. Measurable GST activity was found toward some of the above chemicals and it was found to be significantly enhanced in response to benoxacor treatment.     

Evaluation of a Bacillus stearothermophilus tube test as a screening tool for anticoccidial residues in poultry

A Bacillus stearothermophilus var. calidolactis C953 tube test was evaluated for its ability in detecting the residue of selected anticoccidial drugs in poultry, specically sulfamethazine, furazolidone, and amprolium. Various concentrations of each drug were injected into chicken liver and kidney tissues and these tissues were tested to determine the drug detection limits for each drug. The detection limit was defined as the drug concentration at which 95% of the test results were interpreted as positive. The limits of detection in liver tissue were 0.35 µg/ml for furazolidone, 0.70 µg/ml for sulfamethazine and 7.80 µg/ml for amprolium. In kidney tissues, they were 0.30 µg/ml for furazolidone, 0.54 µg/ml for sulfamethazine, and 7.6 µg/ml for amprolium. It was concluded that this tube test could be used to screen for the residue of these three drugs in poultry.     

氧氟沙星在肉鸡体内残留的研究

建立了氧氟沙星在肉鸡组织内残留的高效液相色谱分析法。采用荧光检测器，激发波长278nm，发射波长445nm。色谱柱为Hypersil BDS—C18，柱温40℃；以磷酸（三乙胺调pH至2．5）-乙腈（86：14）为流动相，流速1．0mL／min；进样量为20μL。氧氟沙星在肌肉、肝脏和肾脏中的平均回收率分别为96．3％、87．5％和76．4％，检测限为10ng／g，在10～1000ng／mL浓度范围内，氧氟沙星的峰面积与其浓度呈良好的线性相关，达到了氧氟沙星残留分析的要求。利用建立的方法对氧氟沙星在肉鸡体内的残留消除规律进行了研究，以1L水添加500mg的剂量，对120只肉鸡连续给药5d，对不同停药时间所取肌肉、肝脏和肾脏样品中的药物残留进行分析。结果表明，氧氟沙星在肉仔鸡组织中的残留消除速度较为缓慢，至休药23d时，仍可在肝脏和肾脏分别检出39和35μg/kg的氧氟沙星残留。在本实验的条件下，建议氧氟沙星临床休药期以25d为宜。
