为考察不同品种断奶仔猪小肠发育的差异及肠绒毛高度与血清GLP-2的关系,本试验分别测定了不同品种仔猪24、26d和30d时的血清GLP-2浓度及30d时肠道发育参数,并分析了回肠绒毛高度与GLP-2的关系。结果表明:大×太猪的小肠长(相对长)、小肠重(相对重)显著高于长白猪(P0.05),小肠重显著高于太湖猪(P0.05),而太湖猪小肠相对重显著高于长白猪(P0.05),小肠相对长极显著高于长白猪(P0.01);大×太猪和长白猪的回肠肠壁厚度、绒毛高度和隐窝深度显著高于太湖猪(P0.05);30d时,大×太猪血清GLP-2水平最高,且极显著高于长白猪和太湖猪(P0.01),3种猪回肠绒毛高度与血清GLP-2极显著相关(P0.01)。表明30d时的大×太猪肠道发育优于太湖猪和长白猪,不同品种断奶仔猪的小肠绒毛高度与血清GLP-2水平高度相关。     

选择产蛋量七个世代蛋壳及蛋品质的相关反应

以北京白鸡Ⅲ系七世代选择群和基础群为材料,估计选择产蛋量七个世代对蛋壳及蛋品质产生的相关反应.结果表明,经七个世代选择,产蛋量、蛋重、蛋白高度和哈夫单位都有所提高,而蛋壳厚度和蛋比重有一定程度下降.估计蛋壳厚度、蛋白高度和哈夫单位的遗传力分别是0.159 5、0.017 8和0.099 4.产蛋量与蛋白高度、哈夫单位和蛋壳厚度呈负遗传相关.选择产蛋量使蛋壳品质发生负向相关反应.     

不同苜蓿品种在青岛地区的适应性

2007-2010年,在青岛地区对引进的23个国内外苜蓿品种进行了膜侧种植、无灌溉、无施肥模式的田间试验,观测分析了各品种产草量、株高、茎叶比等指标。结果表明,23个苜蓿品种在青岛普遍生长良好,国外品种生产性能优于国内品种;播种当年干草产量膜侧种植组明显高于直接播种组,干草产量增幅(除甘农4号、新疆大叶和牧歌401外)均在50%以上;干草产量与年均日照时数、年均温的灰色关联度分别达到0.795 5和0.878 9,而与年均降水量关联度仅为0.569 1;株高最高的是WL323为87.8 cm,最低的是敖汉苜蓿,仅74.7 cm;供试23个品种的干草产量与株高均存在显著性差异,株高与草产量相关系数达到0.65以上,具有很高的正相关性;茎叶比最低的是牧歌401,仅为1.22,绝大多数苜蓿品种的茎叶比有逐年增加的趋势。综合评价认为供试23个苜蓿品种中的WL323、牧歌401、驯鹿3个品种综合生产性能较好,适宜在青岛地区辅以膜侧种植模式进行大面积推广。     

遮阴对10种野生观赏植物生长及生理特性的影响

为了探讨野生观赏植物在遮阴条件下的生态适应性及寻求适度的遮阴比例,选取兰州地区10种野生观赏植物为试验材料,比较测定不同光强生境(全光照、25%、50%、70%遮光率)对10种野生观赏植物生长和生理生化的影响。结果表明,角茴香(Hypecoum erectum)和驴蹄草(Caltha palustris)含水率随着遮阴度的增加而增加,小花草玉梅(Anemone rivularis)在75%遮阴度时干重最大,显著高于其余遮阴处理及全光照(CK)(P0.05);藤本铁线莲(Clematis florida)可溶性糖含量随着遮阴度的增加而减少,鹅绒委陵菜(Potentilla anserina)、角茴香、水杨梅(Geum aleppicum)和驴蹄草的叶绿素含量随着遮阴度的增加而增加;东方草莓(Fragaria orientalis)、角茴香和驴蹄草在全光照下丙二醛的含量显著高于其它处理(P0.05),香青(Anaphalis sinica)和水杨梅在75%遮阴度下丙二醛含量较高。综上所述,香青、莓叶委陵菜(Potentilla chinensis)、藤本铁线莲和野棉花(A.vitifolia)比较适合全光照生长;鹅绒委陵菜、小花草玉梅、东方草莓、角茴香和水杨梅可以忍耐适当的遮阴环境;驴蹄草适合在遮阴条件下生长。     

Influence of Equine Conformation on Rider Oscillation and Evaluation of Horses for Therapeutic Riding

To obtain basic knowledge about selecting horses for therapeutic riding, the influence of equine conformation on rider oscillation and relationships between these factors and the evaluation on horses as the therapeutic riding were studied. Thirty-five riding horses were used. Equine conformation was estimated by 24 indices. Rider oscillation was measured by an accelerometer fixed at the rider’s waist. The spatial position of the oscillation was estimated by a double integration of the acceleration. Horses were evaluated for therapeutic riding by a Riding for the Disabled Association instructor as a rider. Evaluations were on a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the highest score for 27 items. Horses were classified into 4 groups: the short and narrow (SN), short and wide (SW), tall and narrow (TN), and tall and wide (TW). The frequencies of rider oscillation both at walk and trot were higher (P<0.01), and the vertical (P<0.01) and longitudinal (P<0.05) amplitudes at trot were smaller, on short horses than on tall horses. The vertical amplitude at walk was smaller (P<0.05) and the lateral amplitude at trot was larger (P<0.01) on wide horses than on narrow horses. Short horses could be used for the rider who requires side walkers. Wide horses could be used for relieving muscular tension and for the rider who could not maintain good balance on the horse. Short and wide horses should be suitable for therapeutic riding.     

华北驼绒藜不同留茬高度对其产草量的影响研究

观察测定3种不同留茬设置下刈割后的华北驼绒藜的再生情况,综合分析其长势及产量。结果显示,9-10cm留茬设置植株高度最高,达到（41．27±11．06）cm;6～7cm留茬设置分蘖数最多．达到（40．17±10．27）条;产草量最高的为6-7cm留茬设置。由试验结果可以得出,6～7cm留茬设置是华北驼绒藜刈割留茬的最佳设置。     

Associations between yearling body measurements and career racing performance in Thoroughbred racehorses

Yearling morphometric measurements and variables related to career racing performance were collected on 260 Thoroughbreds to determine correlations between and among these traits. Morphometric measurements were adjusted to 365 days based on interpolation from adjacent age points and included wither and hip height, body length, distal limb length, cannon circumference, heartgirth circumference, and chest width. Measures of career racing ability included total earnings, win percentage, and Standard Starts Index (SSI). Wither height and hip height were favorably correlated with lifetime earnings, SSI, and win percentage. Body length and heartgirth were positively correlated with SSI and win percentage. Leg traits were not correlated with any performance parameters. Horses that had placed in or won a stakes race tended to be taller at the wither and hip as yearlings. Horses categorized as preferring turf tended to be taller at the wither and hip at 365 days than those that preferred to run on dirt. No significant difference in yearling morphometric measurements between sprinters and routers was detected. In addition to phenotype and pedigree information, morphometric measurements taken in the yearling year may allow for more accurate estimation of future performance in the Thoroughbred racehorse.     

和胃平喘对小鼠肠绒毛高度的影响

选择大小、体重相近的SD雌性小鼠(18～22g)40只,随机分为4组,1.5%和胃平喘组、2.5%和胃平喘组、3.5%和胃平喘组和基础料组,每组2个重复,每个重复5只,分别饲喂15d和30d后取肠道做成切片,测定小鼠肠道的肠绒毛高度。结果表明:15d试验中,1.5%和胃平喘组、2.5%和胃平喘组、3.5%和胃平喘组与对照组间的平均肠绒毛高度差异显著(P0.05)。30d试验中,2.5%和胃平喘组十二指肠平均肠绒毛(duodenum villus)高度为0.9835±0.1582mm,3.5%和胃平喘组十二指肠平均肠绒毛高度为0.8898±0.1635mm,2.5%和胃平喘组、3.5%和胃平喘组的十二指肠平均肠绒毛高度都与对照组的差异极显著(P0.01),1.5%和胃平喘组的十二指肠平均肠绒毛高度低于对照组,但差异不显著(P0.05);2.5%和胃平喘组和3.5%和胃平喘组的空肠平均肠绒毛(jejunum villus)高度与对照组间的差异不显著(P0.05);1.5%和胃平喘组和2.5%和胃平喘组的回肠平均肠绒毛(ileum villus)高度与对照组间的差异不显著(P0.05)。在小鼠基础料中添加和胃平喘能不同程度提高小鼠肠绒毛高度,且以2.5%和3.5%两个添加量效果最好。     

修剪高度对季节性温度变化下早熟禾生理生态特性的影响

修剪高度的差异会影响冷季型草坪草的生长,探究合理的修剪高度可为草坪草可持续利用提供理论基础。本研究通过测定两年生长季（2012年和2013年）草地早熟禾（8年生）草坪的外观质量（TQ）、地上部分生物量（AB）、光合作用（Pn）、总呼吸作用（R_total）和碳水化合物（TNC）等指标,探讨了修剪高度对冷季型草坪草生理生态特性的影响。试验结果表明,当大气温度高于23~24℃时,不同修剪高度7.6 cm （高修剪高度,HM）和3.8 cm （低修剪高度,LM）下的早熟禾TQ、AB和Pn均降低,与HM相比,在LM下下降更显著。在7—9月的高温条件下,早熟禾地上部分、根系和土壤R高于Pn;但在美国新泽西州较冷的季节（5—6月） Pn高于R。研究表明,较低的修剪高度尤其是在高温条件下降低了草坪草Pn,季节性温度变化下可以通过改变修剪高度影响成熟草坪草的生长,从而缓解高温对草坪生长带来的不利影响。     

Effects of N-methyl-D, L-aspartate on secretion of growth hormone-releasing hormone from the boar hypothalamic-preoptic area and median eminence in vitro

N-methyl-D, L-aspartate (NMA) elicited secretion of growth hormone (GH)-releasing hormone from both the hypothalamic-preoptic area and the median eminence that were collected from boars. We suggest that the previously described increase in GH secretion that follows peripheral treatment of swine with NMA is attributable, at least in part, to NMA-stimulated secretion of GH-releasing hormone from the central nervous system.
