Enhanced recovery of avian influenza virus isolates by a combination of chicken embryo inoculation methods.

Since 1993, 14 cases of avian influenza from four different states in the U.S.A. have been diagnosed by virus isolation from eight avian species. Only 11 of the 14 avian influenza virus (AIV) primary isolations would have been successful if only the standard protocol for AIV isolation, i.e., inoculation of specific-pathogen-free embryonating chicken eggs (ECEs) by the chorioallantoic sac (CAS) route, had been followed. Primary isolation attempts were negative for AIV in three cases in which ECEs were inoculated by the CAS route; AIV could not be detected by hemagglutinating activity, agar gel immunodiffusion test or negative stain electron microscopy. However, in these three cases, primary isolations of AIV were achieved by inoculation of ECEs into either the yolk sac or onto the chorioallantoic membrane.     

Dose response of weeds to methyl iodide and methyl bromide

Labonuory bioassay and field experiments were conducted to characterize the dose response of weeds to methyl iodide and methyl bromide as soil fumigants. The patterns in potency of both fumigants and in sensitivity of diffcretit weed species to the fumigants were distinguished with the use of logistic dose-response models. Similar to its response to methyl hromide fumigation. Amaranthus retrofleus L. was the most sensitive to methyl iodide fumigation. Cyperus rotundtis L. was the least sensitive to methyl iodide fumigation, whereas Portuloca oleracea L. was the least sensitive to methyl hromide. Lolium multiflorum Lam. Abutilon theophrasti Medik. Chenopodium album L. P. ateracea . Brassica kaber (D.C.) L.C. Wheeler and Cyperus escuden-tus L. were similar in sensitivity to methyl iodide. Methyl iodide was as potent as methyl bromide for A. retroflexus but more potent than methyl bromide for L. multiflorum , A. theophrasti. C. album. P. oleracea. B. kaber, C. esculentus and C. rotundus. The dose response for weeds in the field was similar to that obtained in laboratory bioassays. Under fieid conditions. 280 kg ha^-1 methyl iodide killed all species tested except Solanum nigrum L Methyl iodide appears to be a suitable replacement for meihyl bromide because it can be used in situations simitar to methyl bromide fumigation, has superior efficacy against a broad spectrum of pests and has a low potential for degrading the earth's ozone lavers.

3个绿化树种的光合特性比较

采用CIRAS-Ⅰ型光合测定系统,于2004年9月和2005年5月对宁夏地区的绿化树种紫藤、紫丁香、紫叶李的净光合速率等进行测定.结果表明:3个树种的光合特性有一定差异,且随生长季节具有一定的变化.在5月初与9月底,紫叶李的净光合速率最大,9月初紫藤的最大;紫叶李蒸腾速率较高,但瞬间水分利用效率较低;紫藤的蒸腾速率较低,瞬间水分利用效率较高.     

福建余甘子遗传资源的RAPD分析

以福建省34份余甘子遗传资源为材料,采用20个具特异扩增的多态性引物对福建省34份余甘子基因型进行扩增,20个引物,在34份供试材料中总共扩增出259个位点,且均是多态的,多态性程度达100%,平均每个引物扩增12.95个位点。同时,获得了19个引物对23份材料扩增的RAPD特征标记47个,17个引物在36对材料上共扩增出36个共享特征RAPD标记;采用ED(欧氏距离)法进行RAPD标记的聚类分析则可将福建34份余甘子遗传资源明显划分为惠安余甘和莆田余甘两大类。各供试材料之间的遗传距离范围为0.00～1.00,其中栽培品种与野生资源之间遗传距离在0.43～1.00之间;莆田余甘资源与惠安余甘资源之间遗传距离为0.27～0.99。     

七种农药对茴香薄翅野螟防效研究

用喷雾法防治油菜田茴香薄翅野螟,结果表明：0.5%甲氨基阿维菌素苯甲酸盐微乳剂、4.5%高效氯氰菊酯乳油、2.5%高效氯氟氰菊酯乳油和200 g/L氯虫苯甲酰胺悬浮剂4种农药对茴香薄翅野螟的防效随着施药次数增加而增加;40%灭多威可溶性粉剂和25%杀虫双水剂的防效随着施药次数的增加防效逐渐下降; 48%毒死蜱乳油在不同施药次数下防效变化幅度较小,平均防效在95.85%左右;上述7种农药喷施1次后, 以48%毒死蜱乳油和40%灭多威可溶性粉剂的防效最好,分别达96.03%和94.82%。4.5%高效氯氰菊酯乳油、2.5%高效氯氟氰菊酯乳油和48%毒死蜱乳油喷施2次和3次时的防效都在95.70%左右。     

诱导剂对番木瓜环斑病毒病的防治效果

为了探讨水杨酸、茉莉酸甲酯和壳聚糖对番木瓜环斑病毒病的病情指数和防治效果的影响,在番木瓜上喷施不同浓度的诱导剂,然后在叶腋处接种番木瓜环斑病毒,观察和记录番木瓜的病情指数,计算其防治效果.结果表明,诱导剂提高了番木瓜对环斑病毒病的抗性,其中水杨酸的效果优于茉莉酸甲酯和壳聚糖.水杨酸、茉莉酸甲酯和壳聚糖的最佳施用浓度分别为50 mg/L、0.05 mmol/L和1％,最佳防治效果则分别为77.19％、53.11％和22.95％.水杨酸、茉莉酸甲酯、壳聚糖与对照之间的防治效果差异极显著,3种诱导剂在最佳浓度下防治效果差异极显著.50 mg/L水杨酸对番木瓜环斑病毒病防治效果最佳,在生产上施用具有一定的经济效益.     

Use of intralesional cisplatin to successfully treat distal limb haemangiosarcoma in a foal

A 4-month old, 200 kg, grey warmblood colt presented for a firm, non painful mass on the distal medial aspect of the left third metatarsus. Excisional biopsy revealed a diagnosis of haemangiosarcoma. Equine haemangiosarcoma is uncommon and only limited reports of successful treatment are available. The prognosis for survival is therefore considered to be poor. After two separate incidences of recurrence with incomplete excision of the tumour, intralesional treatment with cisplatin without excision or debulking was performed on three separate occasions. Intralesional cisplatin injection was performed at monthly intervals for three treatments. Four years post treatment with cisplatin, the horse remained in remission. This case report describes the diagnostic and treatment challenges for successful treatment of a primary haemangiosarcoma on the distal limb of a warmblood foal using intralesional cisplatin chemotherapy.
