粪肠球菌生长曲线的测定及其对小鼠脑组织的影响

为测定致羔羊脑炎粪肠球菌（Enterococcus faecalis）的生长曲线，寻求一种快速而准确的方法测定不同生长时期粪肠球菌数量，并客观评价其毒性强弱及其对小鼠脑组织的影响，试验采用平板菌落计数法和OD-Monitor振荡比浊法（D_λ值法）测定粪肠球菌的生长曲线，探究该菌在合适时间段内的吸光值（D_{600 nm}）与平板菌落计数法测定的活菌数（CFU）的关系。用粪肠球菌感染小鼠，观察记录小鼠的死亡情况，最后采用Karber法计算粪肠球菌感染小鼠的半数致死量（LD₅₀）。用LD₅₀的剂量感染小鼠，及时采集死亡小鼠脑组织，未死亡的小鼠72 h后全部剖杀取脑组织，一部分做涂片染色，制作病理切片，观察病理变化；一部分进行培养，用于PCR方法进行细菌的回收鉴定。结果显示，用两种方法测定此株粪肠球菌的生长曲线基本一致，在2~8 h生长迅速，为对数生长期，8~14 h生长缓慢，为稳定期，14 h之后死亡数增加，进入衰亡期；对12 h粪肠球菌D_{600 nm}与CFU的关系进行探讨，成功建立回归方程：y=20.769x-1.3422，R²=0.997；其感染小鼠的LD₅₀为7.77×10¹¹个活菌。以此剂量感染小鼠，脑组织涂片染色和培养染色，均能看到革兰氏阳性球菌；PCR结果显示，均出现了大小为112 bp的条带。对脑组织进行病理学观察发现该菌可导致脑组织充血、出血、形成微血栓，脑膜充血。通过生长曲线和其D_{600 nm}与CFU关系的建立，可实时监测粪肠球菌数量，为后期更深入研究粪肠球菌穿越血脑屏障的机制奠定重要的理论基础。     

用两个育虫箱养强群技术的研究

本研究根据多箱体养蜂的原理,结合我国一般蜂场既生产蜂蜜又生产蜂王浆的具体特点,设计常年用两个箱体供蜂群生活、育儿和贮存饲料,流蜜期再加箱体专供蜂群贮放蜂蜜。结果表明,用两个育虫箱养蜂,比用一个育虫箱容易培养和保持强群;流蜜期用加贮蜜继箱的方法代替勤取蜜,不仅减少了取蜜次数,而且能提高蜂蜜的浓度和产量,同时蜂王浆生产照常进行,产浆量不受影响。     

Development of a semi-selective medium and an immunofluorescence colony-staining procedure for the detection of Clavibacter michiganensis subsp. sepedonicus in cattle manure slurry

Various compounds and basal media were tested for their suitability to create a semi-selective medium for isolation ofClavibacter michiganensis subsp.sepedonicus (Cms) from cattle manure slurry containing c. 10⁸ colony forming units (cfu) per ml.Plating efficiency of Cms in yeast glucose mineral medium (YGM) was 104% compared with yeast peptone glucose medium. Nalidixic acid, polymyxin B sulphate and the experimental disinfectant S-0208 inhibited colony growth of cattle slurry bacteria as compared with Cms in YGM. The optimal concentration of these inhibitors in combination was determined by modified agar diffusion tests and by pour plating in 24-well tissue culture plates. The semi-selective medium YGMI consisted of YGM supplemented with nalidixic acid (2 mg/l), polymyxin B sulphate (30 mg/l) and S-0208 (125 mg/l). Plating efficiency varied for Cms between 50.9 and 69.6%, for cattle slurry bacteria between 1.8 and 2.5% and for saprophytes from potato heel end extracts between 11.5 and 27.4%.Differentiation of Cms colonies from other colonies was based on their small and bluish colony morphology in pour plates and on immunofluorescence colony-staining (IFC). IFC of a pure culture of micro colonies of Cms in YGM was possible after one day incubation (colonies c. 5 cells). Green background fluorescence in the agar gels was prevented by addition of Tween 20 (0.1%) to the washing buffer and the use of 1% agar gels. IFC of macro colonies of Cms in YGMI, visible with 4x objective magnification, was possible after 4 days. The detection level of the target organism in artificially inoculated cattle slurry in YGMI based on colony morphology varied between 1.4×10³ and 2.3×10⁴ cfu per ml of cattle slurry. Miniaturized plating combined with IFC, using wells in tissue culture plates (=16 mm), proved suitable for detection, but was c. 30 times les sensitive. The recovery of Cms was negatively correlated with the number of saprophytic colonies in the agar plates (R ²=0.74).

铲头堆砂白蚁原始繁殖蚁形成的周期

铲头堆砂白蚁Cryptotermes declivis Tsai et Chen是破坏木材及木制品的重要干木白蚁,其有翅成虫通过分飞配对后建立新群体,是其重要繁殖扩散途径。本文对铲头堆砂白蚁原始繁殖蚁形成周期进行了研究。以似桂木Paratocarpus sp.、团花Anthocephalus chinensis(Lam.) Rich. et Walp.和球花豆Parkia sp.作为该种白蚁食料,研究其原始繁殖蚁配对后从新建群体的形成到产生下一代的原始繁殖蚁,完成1个世代生活周期。结果表明,铲头堆砂白蚁在室温下,新建群体的形成、发展、发育至下一代原始繁殖蚁形成的周期约5 a,不同寄主材料对铲头堆砂白蚁生活周期没有显著性影响,但与群体数量多少显著相关。本研究首次明确了铲头堆砂白蚁群体发育成熟的周期,对该害虫的检疫与防控研究具有重要参考价值。     

Assessment of microbial biocontrol agent (BCA) viability to mechanical and thermal stress by simulating spray application conditions

Background

In order to improve the biological control agent (BCA) efficacy, stress factors threatening the viability of microorganisms during spray application need to be determined. The effect of spray mixture temperature and exposure time on Trichoderma harzianum T 22 and Bacillus amyloliquefaciens QST713 viability were tested. Concurrently the combined effect of mechanical and thermal stress effect on BCA viability were tested at two initial spray mixture temperatures (14 and 25 °C) by simulating a spray application using airblast sprayers featured by different tank capacity and a spray liquid circuit (without and with hydraulic agitation system). To assess the BCA microorganism viability, spray mixture samples were collected at time intervals along trials and plated to count the colony forming units (CFU).

Results

The critical temperature threshold that inhibited BCA viability was 35 °C with 30 min of exposure. The sprayer type, the initial temperature of the spray mixture and the temperature increment during the trials significantly decreased the number of CFU recovered. When simulating a spray application, the spray mixture temperature increase rate was determined mainly by the residual amount of spray mixture in the tank. Even if the tank capacity does not substantially affect the final temperature reached by the spray mixture, the higher residual spray mixture in bigger tanks can expose the BCAs for a longer time to critical temperatures.

Conclusions

Experimental trials allowed us to identify the effect of factors affecting the viability of tested BCAs, providing information about the actual chance to guarantee the biological efficacy of BCA treatments. © 2023 The Authors.

基于改进蚁群算法的植保无人机路径规划方法

为了规划出更加高效的植保无人机路径,提出一种基于改进蚁群算法的植保无人机路径规划方法,该方法适用于多个具有复杂多边形边界与内部障碍物的三维作业区域。采用扫描方式生成水平面内的作业路径,经过离散化处理后,在三维地形曲面上插值,获得三维作业路径。在此基础上,建立作业路径生成算法,以三维作业路径总长度尽量短、作业路径数量尽量少为目标,对植保无人机作业航向进行寻优。改进蚁群算法通过附加记录作业路径进入点的机制,实现对三维作业路径的合理排序,生成总长度较短的转移路径。经过算例检验,针对同一作业区域规划出的三维作业路径与水平面内的作业路径的航向角存在较大差异,相差最大为92°,这说明考虑三维地形的必要性。算例中,将改进的蚁群算法与贪婪算法进行了对比,针对一系列相同的作业起点,改进的蚁群算法所得的转移路径总长度均较短,比贪婪算法所得结果缩短3%~28%;在未选定作业起点情况下,改进的蚁群算法与贪婪算法求得的转移路径总长度最小值分别为1661m与1763m,说明改进的蚁群算法具有良好的寻优能力。实例检验情况与算例所得结论基本一致。算例与实例中的作业区域边界与地形复杂,涵盖情况全面,表明本文提出的路径规划方法具有一定实用性。
