Two successful embryo transfers of mini-donkey embryos in Brazilian Northeastern jennies using an alternative method: Case report

Pregnancy rates after embryo transfer (ET) are disappointing in donkey species. This study aims to report two successful ET of mini-donkey embryos using Brazilian Northeastern jennies as recipients. Eighteen embryo flushes were performed 9 days post-ovulation in two non-pregnant mini-donkeys jennies (11 and 7 cycles per jenny). Eleven embryos (61%, 11/18) were collected and transferred to Brazilian Northeastern jennies 4–6 days post-ovulation by conventional (n = 6) or an alternative (n = 5) technique. The alternative method consisted of inserting a Polansky equine vaginal speculum smeared with lubricant in the vagina of the recipient jenny. The arms of the speculum were extended to allow the visualization of the cervix. Then, using an adapted crafted, elongated, toothed tissue grasping forceps, the external cervical os was held, and the cervix was gently pulled backward, aiming to straight the cervical canal. The ET gun was inserted through the vagina and cervix by visual inspection, and the embryo was released into the uterine lumen. All embryos collected were Grade 1 and classified as Expanded Blastocysts. No jennies become pregnant after conventional ET (0/6), whereas two recipient jennies (40%, 2/5) become pregnant and delivered offspring in the following year after ET using the alternative technique. In conclusion, Brazilian Northeastern jennies can be used as embryo recipients using the alternative method proposed in the present study. However, further investigations are needed to improve the knowledge and results of ET in donkey species.

Decreasing detection frequency of MITE(MCLas-A) in the population of ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' recently collected in southern China

An active miniature inverted-repeat transposable element(MITE), MCLas-A, was previously identified from ‘Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' known to be associated with citrus Huanglongbing(HLB, yellow shoot disease). To explore the recent transposition status of MCLas-A, 389 ‘Ca. L. asiaticus' strains collected from nine regions in China were amplified using a specific primer set and three representative ‘Ca. L. asiaticus' strains were analyzed by next-generation sequencing(NGS) approach. PCR and genomic analysis showed that the entire MCLas-A was only present in 1.80%(7/389) and the jumping-out type of the MITE was predominant(81.23%) in samples tested, suggesting high frequency transposition occurred in ‘Ca. L. asiaticus' strains recently collected from China. Biological roles of transposition of the active MITE remain to be determined.     

超小型叶栅空化流场试验研究

采用弦长为14 mm的超小型Clark-Y叶栅,进行了多种空化数下的空化试验以探讨超小尺度下的空化机理和空化尺度效应。通过试验结果的分析,发现随着空化数降低,超小型叶栅的空化发展可分为空化初生、片状空化、云状空化、超空化几个阶段。通过与超小型翼型空化流场比较,发现由于受翼型间相互作用的影响,栅中翼型的空穴形态在各个空化阶段均表现为薄且狭长,空化发展相对滞后。

A Computer Program for Automatic Watering Based on Potential Evapotranspiration by Penman Method and Predicted Leaf Area in Miniature Pot Rose Production

In this study, we developed a computer program for automatic prediction of watering time point by considering the environmental factors such as solar radiation, air temperature and relative humidity based on the multiple linear regression equation of leaf area and Penman Method. The experiments were carried out for a year in two watering experimental plots, one of which was controlled by pF value, and the other by the computer program. After comparing the results of the two plots, the following findings were obtained. In the computer program plot, the observed and predicted values of both leaf area and evapotranspiration indicated significant correlation at the 1% level, which suggested that the computer program had high prediction accuracy. In addition, no significant difference was observed between the two experimental plots with respects to the plant height, plant diameter, leaf area, leaf number, fresh weight, and dry weight, which demonstrated that the plants in the computer program plot had normal growth. On the other hand, although the number of flower buds and flowering shoots showed higher values at the end of certain cultivations in the computer program plot than those in pF value plot, we proposed that it was due to the effect of cumulative daily solar radiation in the greenhouse, rather than the watering. Thus, we have reached the conclusion that the computer program for automatic prediction of watering time point developed by this study has high applicability in miniature pot rose production.
