Mid-storage and pre-sowing seed treatments for lettuce and carrot

Mid-storage hydration-dehydration treatments with medium-vigour lettuce seed very effectively reduced physiological deterioration in storage and ultimately showed better field emergence and final yield. Soaking-drying treatment of high-vigour lettuce seed was not effective. Pre-sowing treatment of medium-vigour lettuce seed, though less effective than mid-storage treatment, gave better field performance, but high-vigour seed did not benefit from the treatment. For carrot, both mid-storage and pre-sowing seed treatments proved beneficial, with the former showing better performance than the latter. Unlike lettuce, well-preserved carrot seed responded positively to the pre-sowing treatment.     

甘肃省规模化奶牛场污染状况与防治对策研究

根据农业部2007年畜禽养殖场环境污染调查研究项目,结合甘肃省奶牛养殖业污染状况实际,抽样检测分析了规模化奶牛养殖场的污染状况,重点分析了粪便中全氮、全磷、有机质、铜、锌和污水中COD、氨氮、总磷、铜、锌等主要污染源含量.结果表明,2007年规模化奶牛场粪便、污水中的主要污染源对其周围环境产生了较为严重的污染.据此提出了畜禽养殖污染防治的对策.

饲料粮比重加大中国的粮食安全性会更高

一、关于粮食问题的几个判断1、口粮消费总量将维持稳定。在相当长一个时期,中国的口粮消费总量,基本维持稳定。随着人们生活水平的提高,城乡口粮直接消费下降。1981年城乡居民人均口粮消费分别为145公斤和256公斤;2005年城市居民口粮消费只有77公斤,农民全年平均口粮消费208.9     

亚麻屑和红麻芯用于仙客来栽培基质的研究初报

为提高亚麻屑和红麻芯的附加值,促进生物资源的综合利用,分别用25%、50%、75%与100%的亚麻屑和红麻芯替代普通泥炭作为仙客来栽培基质.结果表明用25%的亚麻屑或50%的红麻芯替代普通泥炭均有利于仙客来的生长与开花,其各项指标均优于常规基质.     

Study on Site-specific Nutrient Management in Cotton Field

The study on the characteristics of spatial variability of soil nutrients and fertilizer recommendations in cotton field under certain conditions of agricultural management was conducted with GIS and systematic approach for soil nutrient constrains. The results showed that of the spatial variability of soil nutrient was greatly related to the management condition of previous crops. Grid sampling and variable rate application technology (VRAT) were the tools that would hopefully increase fertilizer efficiency. The fertilizers were applied where they were needed and at proper rate. Balance fertilization demonstration showed that fertilizer recommendations according to the available nutrient level in soil could decrease fertilizer cost with 657.4 yuan / ha and increase seed cotton yield by 19.8%. A net profit of the balanced fertilization was 5314.9 yuan / ha higher than that of local fertilization practice.     

水稻不育系粒黑粉病普遍率与严重度间的关系

 稻粒黑粉病(病原菌Neovossia horrida (TaK.)Padw. et A. Kahn)是杂交稻繁殖制种田不育系上的主要病害,流行频率高,危害损失大。普遍率和严重度的关系(I-S关系)是植病流行学观测技术上的一个重要问题。     

苯丙烯酸对黄瓜幼苗光合作用和细胞超微结构的影响

 通过基质栽培研究不同浓度的苯丙烯酸对黄瓜幼苗光合作用和超微结构的影响。结果表明，苯丙烯酸浓度在80 µmol·L 时显著地降低了黄瓜幼苗的叶面积、叶绿素a含量、光合速率、蒸腾速率、根系活力和气孔张开数(P<0.05)；叶绿体和线粒体等超微结构也受到破坏，而浓度在150 µmol·L 时显著减少了全株干质量和气孔总数，细胞器出现解体现象。     

Osmolarity,cell volume and proliferation in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells

AIM: To investigate the relationship between osmolarity, cell volume and cell proliferation in nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells. METHODS: MTT method was applied to detect the proliferation ability of the poorly-differentiated nasopharyngeal carcinoma cell (CNE-2Z) under various osmolarity conditions. The flow cytometry was used to analyse cell cycle distribution. Cell volume was obtained by the image analysis of living cells and cell viability was determined by the trypan blue assay. RESULTS: Cultivation of cells under the hypertonic conditions of 370 and 440 mOsmol/L increased cell volume by 8.7% and 27.8% and facilitated cell proliferation by 22.2% and 33.9%, respectively. However, hypotonic incubation of cells with osmolarity of 160 and 230 mOsmol/L decreased cell volume by 12.8% and 4.1% and inhibited cell proliferation by 34.0% and 15.6%, respectively. Cell volume was positively correlated with cell proliferation rate. Long-term cultivation of cells under anisotonic conditions did not significantly alter cell cycle distribution, but hypotonic cultivation decreased cell viability. CONCLUSION: Proliferation of nasopharyngeal carcinoma cells was closely correlated with the osmolarity of culture medium and cell volume. Hypotonic cultivation may inhibit cell proliferation by decreasing cell volume to facilitate cell death mechanisms.
