Characterization and identification of cold tolerant near-isogenic lines in rice

To exploit the genetic mechanism of cold tolerance in rice, cold tolerant near-isogenic lines (NILs) were developed by backcrossing Kunmingxiaobaigu (KMXBG), reported to be the most cold-tolerant variety at the booting stage, as donor, with the cold sensitive Japanese commercial japonica variety, Towada. Comparisons of cold tolerance-related traits between five BC₆F₅ NILs and recurrent parent Towada under cold treatment and normal temperatures at the booting stage showed that the differences between the NILs and Towada were significant only for spikelet fertility-related traits. Analyses of cold tolerance in the NILs at the budding (germination), seedling and booting stages indicated both correlated effects and differences. Lines 1913-4 and 1916-1 showed strong and stable tolerance at all three stages. Whole genome marker screening showed that the proportion of genetic background recovery was more than 98%. Seventeen markers from KMXBG were introgressed in two or more NILs, and cold tolerance genes were possibly present in these marker regions. The NILs should be excellent materials for both rice improvement and map-based cloning of cold tolerance QTLs.     

东北地区农业系统发展的阶段性特征

农业作为国民经济的基础,具有较强的内在有机性和外部关联性。宏观地考察农业系统的演变历史及发展规律,对于客观判断农业结构变动是否合理以及功能衍变是否良性,具有重要意义。东北地区农业系统的发展经历了4个阶段(渔猎系统同采集系统的分化阶段,农牧系统同渔猎系统的分化阶段,农牧渔猎长期共存互补阶段以及农耕系统同畜牧系统的分化阶段)。在每个发展阶段,农业系统的结构形式和功能表现均有所不同,其发展趋势是系统结构的多元化和功能的稳态化。

24个燕麦品种种子萌发耐盐性综合评价

采用培养皿纸上发芽法,对24个燕麦(Avena sativa)品种进行了不同盐浓度0(CK)、0.3%、0.6%、0.9%和1.2%下的种子萌发实验,测定了发芽势、发芽率、芽长和根长,并采用10分打分法对其耐盐性进行了综合评价。结果表明:24个品种的发芽率、芽长、根长随着盐浓度的增加先升高后降低,低浓度盐胁迫可以促进种子萌发,高浓度盐胁迫对种子萌发有抑制作用。通过综合评价,综合得分在30分以上的有1个品种青永久110,21～30分的有13个品种,20分以下的有10个品种。其中,耐盐性最强的是青永久110,其次是青永久30、青永久195、青永久876,耐盐性最差的是青永久233。

Dose confirmation studies for monepantel, an amino-acetonitrile derivative, against fourth stage gastro-intestinal nematode larvae infecting sheep

Monepantel is the first compound from the recently discovered amino-acetonitrile derivative (AAD) class of anthelmintics to be developed for use in sheep. Nine dose confirmation studies were conducted in Australia, New Zealand and Switzerland to confirm the minimum therapeutic oral dose of monepantel to control fourth stage (L4) gastro-intestinal nematode larvae in sheep (target species were Haemonchus contortus, Teladorsagia (Ostertagia) circumcincta, Teladorsagia trifurcata, Trichostrongylus axei, Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Trichostrongylus vitrinus, Cooperia curticei, Cooperia oncophora, Nematodirus battus, Nematodirus filicollis, Nematodirus spathiger, Chabertia ovina and Oesophagostomum venulosum). In each study, sheep infected with a defined selection of the target nematodes were treated with 2.5 mg monepantel/kg liveweight. Following euthanasia and worm counting, efficacy was calculated against worm counts from untreated control groups. The results demonstrate high (95 < 100%) efficacy of monepantel when administered orally to sheep at 2.5 mg/kg for most species tested. Efficacy levels against N. spathiger and O. venulosum were variable and failed to meet the required regulatory standard (≥90%) in some studies. Efficacy was demonstrated against L4 stages of nematodes known to be resistant to either benzimidazole and/or levamisole anthelmintics (macrocyclic lactone resistant isolates were not available for testing). The broad-spectrum activity of monepantel against L4 larvae of common gastro-intestinal nematodes in sheep and its favorable safety profile represents a significant advance in the treatment of parasitic gastro-enteritis in this animal species. No adverse effects related to treatment with monepantel were observed.     

包膜控释尿素对高羊茅草坪建植期生长的影响

应用盆栽试验研究了释放期为30 d(U30)和80 d(U80)的控释包膜尿素一次性基施对高羊茅Festuca arundinacea草坪建植期生长情况的影响。结果表明：在施氮量相等的情况下,单一施用U80处理草坪成坪时间最短,仅为51 d,播种85 d后,其叶绿素仪读值（SPAD）高于其他处理。出苗后各处理地上生物量呈现先升高后降低的单峰变化趋势。单一施用U80处理草坪成坪后,生长速度较其他处理更为平缓。此外,单一施用U80处理和U80配施30％普通尿素处理,草坪地下生物量积累总量明显高于单一施用普通尿素处理。     

马尾松二代种子园无性系开花物候观测

[目的]在用材林高世代种子园建园材料选择时,最初重点考虑的是其速生性,而对优树的开花物候关注较少。在高世代种子园营建时,无性系的配置常根据其种源在大范围内考虑其开花物候的遗传因素,但即使是小范围内相同种源的无性系,其开花物候也不可能绝对同步。因此,了解种子园无性系的开花物候,可为种子园的集约经营、产量预测、种子遗传品质调控等提供依据。[方法]于2012—2013年,在桂阳县苗圃马尾松二代种子园Ⅰ大区、Ⅴ大区分别随机选取不同类型的无性系10个和25个,对其开花物候进行观测。[结果]表明:不同无性系的雌、雄球花花期起止日期和持续时间均有差异,但无性系间雌、雄球花花期值差异均未达显著水平,35个无性系总体雌、雄球花花期具有一定的同步性;35个无性系雌、雄球花的初花期基本同步,雌、雄球花的盛花期和末花期同步。株间花期差异相对于无性间要大,但雄球花花期较早的植株,其雌球花花期也较早,同一株建园亲本的雌、雄球花花期有一定的同步性。除雌球花的末花期与雄球花的初花期呈微弱负相关外,雌、雄球花的初花期、盛花期、末花期间均呈极显著或显著正相关。各花期的相关性呈现初花期和盛花期的相关盛花期和末花期的相关初花期和末花期的相关,雌球花初花期与雄球花初花期的相关系数最大。坡位对母树的花期有极显著影响,生长在不同坡位的植株,其雌、雄球花花期值差异明显,其大小均为上坡中坡下坡。坡位对花期影响最大的是雌球花的初花期,其次是雄球花的初花期、雌球花的盛花期、雄球花的盛花期,而对雌、雄球花的末花期影响最小。偏北产地无性系的花期相对较早,不同的无性系类型,其雄球花的盛花期和雌球花的初花期的差异显著;雄球花的初花期、末花期以及雌球花的盛花期和末花期差异均不显著。不同的年份,雌、雄球花花期的早晚差异很大,2012年最早初花期较2013年最早初花期早25 d。[结论]桂阳马尾松二代种子园35个无性系总体雌、雄球花花期具有较好的同步性;从开花物候方面考虑,该种子园建园材料选择较合理,对种子园种子产量和遗传品质没有影响。     

高温高湿对不同品种(系)现蕾期辣椒(Capsicum annuum L.)抗氧化性的影响

选用10个具有代表性辣椒品种(系),于人工气候室内分别在正常和高温高湿条件下,研究了现蕾期辣椒抗氧化系统生理生化性状的变化以及不同品种(系)的抗氧化性差异。结果表明:10个辣椒品种(系)抗坏血酸(AsA)、花青素含量下降,而谷胱甘肽(GSH)、花色苷含量增加;超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、苯丙氨酸解氨酶(PAL)4个酶活性一致增强。根据8个生理生化指标的相对值,通过坐标综合评定法对活性氧的抑制和清除进行分析,抗氧化剂类的贡献大于抗氧化酶类;系统聚类法将10个辣椒品种(系)的抗氧化性强弱分为3类:06591、115-5-5-12-9-1-2、B04-99-5-1-1-2、06597、06590为强抗氧化性品种(系);B04-51-4-2-1-2-1和43-5-1-1-1为中等抗氧化性品种(系);06592、B04-114-1-1-1-1-1、B04-512-4-1(系)为弱抗氧化性品种。
