长江近口段鳗苗捕捞量的时间格局及其与生态因子的GAM模型分析

为研究长江口鳗苗捕捞量与生态因子的相互关系,于2012年汛期对长江靖江段鳗苗的捕捞量进行了监测,采用广义可加模型(GAM)对日捕捞量与水温、潮差、气压、浑浊度等生态因子之间的相关性作了分析。结果显示,靖江段鳗苗汛期为1月下旬—4月上旬,单船总捕捞量为221~443尾,平均(344.8±83.4)尾。1月均值仅0.4尾/d,且空网率高达90.9%;4月为旺汛期,均值10.4尾/d,空网率仅为10.0%。GAM模型显示,潮汐周期—月份交互项、水温和潮差对鳗苗日捕捞量的影响显著,而气压、浊度和月相周期对鳗苗日捕捞量的影响不显著。潮汐周期—月份交互项、水温和潮差对鳗苗日捕捞量的偏差解释率分别为42.4%、19.1%和13.1%,均呈现正相关关系。统计也显示,日捕捞量表现出上、下弦月较低、新月或满月前后较高的半月周期波动。鳗苗捕获的最低水温为6.3℃,而10~15℃为适宜捕捞水温。高潮期和低潮期分别占总捕捞量的76.8%和23.2%。研究表明,长江口鳗苗在借助潮汐流而快速溯河的过程中,部分在口门水域即被捕获,部分滞留在了长江河口段,而影响鳗苗溯河的重要生态因子是潮汐和水温。     

鳗鲡（Anguilla japonica）胚胎发育与水温和盐度的关系

实验结果表明，鳗鲡胚胎发育与水温和盐度关系密切，在一定的水温范围内，胚胎发育所需时间与水温呈负相关关系，ｙ＝２４６．７７５ｅ＾－０．０８２ｘ。其合适水温范围是２０－２６℃，临界水温上限３０℃，下限１６℃；胚胎发育的合适盐度范围是１５－３５‰，临界盐度上限４０－４５‰，下限５－１０‰。胚胎孵化率与盐度呈二次曲线相关关系，ｙ＝３６．９３＋０．２３ｘ－０．１９ｘ＾２。     

基于最大熵模型分析西南大西洋阿根廷滑柔鱼栖息地分布

根据2008—2010年中国鱿钓船在西南大西洋海域得到的生产数据及海洋环境数据(海表面温度,sea surface temperature,SST;海面高度sea surface height,SSH;叶绿素-a浓度,chlorophyll-a,chl.a),利用最大熵模型(Max Ent)分析捕捞主渔汛期间(1—4月)阿根廷滑柔鱼的潜在栖息地分布,同时与实际作业位置相比较,结合海洋环境因子分析不同年份分布差异的原因。模型运算结果显示:阿根廷滑柔鱼潜在分布区域的变化与实际作业位置变动基本一致;南北方向上,2008年和2009年的潜在分布区域较为广泛,而2010年的潜在分布区域较为狭窄,且主要分布在45°S以南的区域。Jackknife检验表明,SST是影响阿根廷滑柔鱼分布的首要环境因子,SST等温线分布可用来表征海流的强弱进而影响阿根廷滑柔鱼的分布,其中12°C等温线可以作为寻找渔场的一个指标。SSH等高线分布及其涡的变化也会影响到阿根廷滑柔鱼分布。chl.a只能间接地反映阿根廷滑柔鱼渔场的分布,不能很好地作为表征其分布的环境因子。研究表明,分析阿根廷滑柔鱼栖息地分布及其差异原因应主要观察SST和SSH的变化。     

西伯利亚鲟性腺早期发生、分化、发育的组织学观察

利用组织学方法研究人工繁育、养殖的西伯利亚鲟(Acipenser baerii)仔、幼、成鱼性腺发育过程中原始生殖细胞(Primordial germ cells,PGC)的迁移,生殖褶的生成,性腺雌雄分化和发育过程。结果表明,西伯利亚鲟于3dph(Days post-hatch)时,PGC以单细胞的形式存在于仔鱼卵黄囊上方两中肾管之间,10dph时其迁移到背侧的腹膜上皮上,13dph时其沿腹膜上皮朝肾管区下方迁移,22dph时生殖嵴形成,31dph时原始性腺形成,40～60dph时原始性腺发育形成裂腔,PGCs沿腔壁排列,裂腔经过进一步发育并从背离腹膜上皮的底端慢慢愈合成实体,90dph时原始性腺中出现生殖上皮和性细胞,150dph时脂肪细胞和血管增多,210dph时性腺出现2种不同的表面结构,性腺开始分化。本研究利用组织学方法借鉴鱼类性腺分期标准,将西伯利亚鲟性腺分化划分为0期和Ⅰ～Ⅵ期,并描述了各期精巢、卵巢的结构变化以及细胞形态学特征。     

拟穴青蟹卵泡抑素相关蛋白基因的克隆和表达分析

卵泡抑素相关蛋白(follistatin related protein,FRP)是一种细胞外基质糖蛋白,该蛋白参与细胞增殖、迁移、组织重塑、胚胎发育、细胞间相互作用等多种生理过程。迄今甲壳动物FRP的研究尚未见诸报道。实验采用RACE技术首次克隆了拟穴青蟹FRP基因部分cDNA序列。该序列长度1 948 bp,FRP肽段含有484个氨基酸残基,包括KAZAL-FS结构域、EFh结构域和两个Ig结构域。系统进化树显示拟穴青蟹FRP基因的分子进化地位与其生物学分类地位一致。半定量PCR及荧光定量PCR结果表明,FRP基因在拟穴青蟹的胸神经团、脑和卵巢中表达。FRP基因在卵巢发育各期的表达量各不相同,卵巢未发育期最高,据此我们推测FRP具有抑制卵巢发育的作用。     

锯缘青蟹卵巢发育的组织学观察

根据锯缘青蟹卵巢的外部形态和内部组织学特征,卵巢发育可以划分为六个时期:未发育期、发育早期、发育期、将成熟期、成熟期和排卵后期。在发育早期,多数卵母细胞胞质中有多个嗜酸性液泡,这种结构在其他十足类卵母细胞中较少见。少数个体在发育早期发生卵母细胞全面退化,这种现象可能是缺乏交配或饥饿造成的。

Field performance and molecular diversification of lemon selections

Lemon (Citrus limon (L.) Burm. f.) is one of the most important Citrus fruit for Turkey because of its great amount of production and export. It has been cultivated for a long time in Turkey, and therefore variations for agronomical traits are likely among cultivated lemons due to bud mutations and, hybridizations. The objectives of this study were to determine variations for some selected agronomical traits and genetic markers among 12 new lemons derived from selections. Tree growth, yield, fruit quality, and molecular diversification of these clones were determined. After four years of evaluation, ‘Kutdiken’ M-51 indicated the highest canopy volume. For yield per tree, the best clone was ‘Kutdiken’ M-51. After five years of evaluation, ‘Kibris’ M-54 had the highest fruit weight and acidity. ‘Italian Memeli’ M-56 contained the lowest seed number and the highest total soluble solids. Molecular analysis, as assessed with 22 random amplification of polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and 11 inter simple sequence repeats (ISSR) primers, indicated that seven of twelve clones were separated with RAPD markers, whereas four were distinguished with ISSR markers. Combined analysis of RAPD and ISSR data detected that similarity values among the lemons clones were between 0.97 and 1.00. It can be concluded that variations in orchards are abundant and mainly due to mutations.

Comparing fire spread algorithms using equivalence testing and neutral landscape models

We demonstrate a method to evaluate the degree to which a meta-model approximates spatial disturbance processes represented by a more detailed model across a range of landscape conditions, using neutral landscapes and equivalence testing. We illustrate this approach by comparing burn patterns produced by a relatively simple fire spread algorithm with those generated by a more detailed fire behavior model from which the simpler algorithm was derived. Equivalence testing allows objective comparisons of the output of simple and complex models, to determine if the results are significantly similar. Neutral landscape models represent a range of landscape conditions that the model may encounter, allowing evaluation of the sensitivity and behavior of the model to different landscape compositions and configurations. We first tested the model for universal applicability, then narrowed the testing to assess the practical domain of applicability. As a whole, the calibrated simple model passed the test for significant equivalence using the 25% threshold. When applied to a range of landscape conditions different from the calibration scenarios, the model failed the tests for equivalence. Although our particular model failed the tests, the neutral landscape models were helpful in determining an appropriate domain of applicability and in assessing the model sensitivity to landscape changes. Equivalence testing provides an effective method for model comparison, and coupled with neutral landscapes, our approach provides an objective way to assess the domain of applicability of a spatial model.
