不同果桑品种在干旱胁迫下的光合生理变化

以一串红、大10、红果2号3个果桑品种的3年生嫁接苗为材料,采用盆栽控水试验方法,分别在适宜水分、中度干旱胁迫、重度干旱胁迫及复水(土壤水分分别为田间最大持水量的70%～75%、45%～50%、25%～30%、75%～80%)条件下测试分析3个果桑品种的光合作用、光响应和CO2响应特征,评价果桑品种的抗旱能力。结果表明:干旱胁迫显著降低3个果桑品种的净光合速率、气孔导度、蒸腾速率、水分利用效率、瞬时光能利用效率和瞬时羧化效率,增加了胞间CO2浓度;3个果桑品种在不同土壤水分条件下对光强度和CO2浓度的响应曲线变化趋势基本一致,即在干旱胁迫下,3个果桑品种的最大净光合速率、表观量子效率、暗呼吸速率、瞬时羧化效率、光呼吸速率等均较适宜水分下降,复水处理后,各项响应值均有所回升。根据3个果桑品种在中度、重度干旱胁迫及复水条件下上述各项指标的变幅,比较品种的抗旱能力为:红果2号>大10>一串红。红果2号可在干旱缺水、光照较强的地区栽植。     

Associations among albuminuria, C-reactive protein concentrations, survival predictor index scores, and survival in 78 critically ill dogs

Background: Microalbuminuria and C‐reactive protein (CRP) are predictors of morbidity and survival in critically ill human patients. Hypothesis/Objectives: To evaluate results of microalbuminuria assays (untimed single‐sample urine albumin concentration [U‐ALB] and the urine albumin : creatinine ratio [UACR]), serum CRP, and survival predictor index (SPI2) scores as predictors of survival in critically ill dogs. Animals: Seventy‐eight dogs admitted to intensive care units at University of Tennessee (UT) and Colorado State University (CSU). Methods: Prospective observational study. Critically ill dogs were eligible for enrollment, unless euthanized because of financial constraints. Samples were collected within 3 hours of admission. Spearman's rank‐correlation coefficients were determined for U‐ALB, UACR, CRP, and SPI2. U‐ALB, UACR, CRP, and SPI2 were assessed for associations with 7‐ and 30‐day survival by Mann‐Whitney U‐tests and receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves. P‐values < .0125 were considered significant. Results: UT (n = 49) and CSU (n = 29) patients did not differ significantly. Forty percent (31/78) of dogs died. SPI2 was inversely correlated with U‐ALB (r_s=?0.39, P < .001) and UACR (r_s=?0.41, P < .001). CRP was not correlated with SPI2 (P= .019), U‐ALB (P > .1), or UACR (P > .1). U‐ALB and UACR had very high correlation (r_s= 0.95, P < .001). SPI2, U‐ALB, and UACR differed significantly for survivors and nonsurvivors. SPI2, U‐ALB, and UACR had areas under the ROC curve (AUC) from 0.68 to 0.74 for survival prediction. Conclusions and Clinical Importance: Albuminuria and SPI2, but not CRP, are associated with survival in critically ill dogs. Suboptimal AUCs limit the value of microalbuminuria testing for clinical risk assessment. Additional studies are necessary to determine the usefulness of microalbuminuria testing in patient risk stratification for prospective research.

不同CO2浓度对苜蓿分枝期光合性能的影响

以苜蓿（Medicago sativa）‘Maverick’为试验材料,研究不同CO₂浓度下苜蓿分枝期的光合能力日变化情况,探索未来大气CO₂浓度上升过程中苜蓿的生产潜力,为未来牧草种植产业提供指导。结果表明：当开顶式生长室中CO₂浓度为550和700 μmol·mol^-1时,‘Maverick’的叶绿素含量对比室外对照组分别提高了2.4%和3.6%,但差异不显著。净光合速率（Pn）日平均值分别提高了114.69%和116.54%。此外,CO₂浓度升高提高了苜蓿的光系统Ⅱ（PSII）的原初光能转换效率（Fv/Fm）、潜在活性（Fv/Fo）、实际光化学量子产量（Yield）,并显著增加了光化学淬灭（qP）,降低非光化学淬灭（NPQ）。研究结果表明在高CO₂浓度条件下更利于‘Maverick’叶绿素捕获光能,PSII反应中心比例大,光合作用增强。

Orf virus circulation in cattle in Turkey

Orf virus (ORFV) causes contagious skin disease that mainly affects sheep and goats with zoonotic potential. However, there is not enough information about the association between ORFV and occurrence of skin disease in cattle. The present study describes outbreaks of ORFV infection in cattle in different provinces that are located in the Aegean, Central Anatolian and Mediterranean regions of Turkey. During the months of June and August 2017, vesicular fluid and scab samples were collected from cattle which had proliferative skin lesions. First, presence of lumpy skin disease virus (LSDV) and bovine herpesvirus 2 (BoHV-2, known as the causative agent of pseudo-lumpy skin disease) were investigated by real time PCR and PCR, respectively. Then, samples tested for the presence of parapoxviruses by PCR using primers specific to major envelope protein gene (B2L). Parapoxvirus DNA was detected in investigated samples whereas LSDV and BoHV-2 DNA were not detected. The analysis of the B2L gene sequences revealed that cattle were infected with ORFV. The isolates in the present study shared 100% sequence identity at the nucleotide and amino acid level when compared with previously characterised Turkish field ORFV isolates from goats in 2016. Results of the study show unusual infection of cattle with ORFV, and suggest that ORFV jumps the host species barrier from goats to cattle.
