A model of arctic tundra vegetation derived from topographic gradients

We present a topographically-derived vegetation model (TVM) that predicts the landscape patterns of arctic vegetation types in the foothills of the Brooks Range in northern Alaska. In the Arctic there is a strong relationship between water and plant structure and function and TVM is based on the relationships between vegetation types and slope (tan ) and discharge (), two independent variables that can be easily derived from digital terrain data. Both slope and discharge relate to hydrological similarity within a landscape: slope determines the gravitational hydrological gradient and hence influences flow velocity, whereas discharge patterns are computed based on upslope area and quantify lateral flow amount. TVM was developed and parameterized based on vegetation data from a small 2.2 km² watershed and its application was tested in a larger 22km² region. For the watershed, TVM performed quite well, having a high spatial resolution and a goodness-of-fit ranging from 71–78%, depending on the functions used. For the larger region, the strength of the vegetation types predictions drops somewhat to between 56–59%. We discuss the various sources of error and limitations of the model for purposes of extrapolation.     

DNA hybridization assay for detection of nucleopolyhedrovirus in whitemarked tussock moth (Orgyia leucostigma) larvae

DNA dot‐blot hybridization assays utilizing a horseradish peroxidase‐labelled whole genomic DNA probe and enhanced chemiluminescence were conducted to quantify detection thresholds of nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) in whitemarked tussock moth (Orgyia leucostigma) larvae. The minimum detection thresholds for an aqueous suspension of occlusion bodies (OBs), OBs added to macerates of non‐infected larvae and OBs in macerates of diseased larvae were 7.8 × 10³, 7.8 × 10³, and 1.5 × 10³ OBs, respectively. Purified viral DNA was detected at a concentration of 1.6 × 10⁻¹ ng in a 20 µl volume. The presence of pre‐occluded viral nucleocapsids and DNA, inherent to infected larvae, improved the detection threshold five‐fold compared with OBs alone. Larval tissues did not block the detection system utilized, nor did they bind non‐specifically to the probe. Detection thresholds, upon sequential hybridization of the same membrane, on average deteriorated two‐fold between the first and second hybridization and an additional six‐fold between the second and third hybridization. NPV infection was detected two days post‐inoculation (pi) in about one‐third of the larvae examined and in almost all larvae three days pi. Microscopic analysis of stained larval smears missed NPV infection in almost all larvae two days pi and about two‐thirds of the larvae three days pi. Results from the two methods of analysis were not comparable until four days pi. The detection system utilized is a reliable, efficient and simple method for the early detection of NPV infection in large numbers of larvae and may be used for further studies quantifying the role of this baculovirus in the ecology of whitemarked tussock moth populations. © 2001 Society of Chemical Industry

大豆叶毒蛾核型多角体病毒(OaNPV)的毒力测定

1987年在哈尔滨从大豆叶毒蛾(Orgyia antiqua L.)感病致死幼虫体中分离出核型多角体病毒OaNPV一株。选1龄和3龄大豆叶毒蛾幼虫作试虫,分别用5个病毒剂量或浓度,采用定量滴叶法进行毒力测定。对应用感染剂量和感染浓度二种计量方法进行分析和比较。1龄幼虫感染剂量或浓度与死亡率回归直线方程分别为y_1=4.94+0.67x_1和Y_1=3.58+0.67X_1致死中量(LD_(50))为1.2PIB/虫,致死中浓度(LC_(50))为1.4×10~2PIB/ml;3龄幼虫感染剂量或浓度与死亡率回归直线方程分别为y_3=3.80+0.49x_3和Y_3=3.01+0.49X_3,致死中量为2.6×10~2PIB/虫,致死中浓度为1.1×10~4PIB/ml。以1.026×10~2、1.026×10~4、1.026×10~5PIB/ml病毒分别处理1龄幼虫所得致死中时(LT_(50))分别为8.9、5.7和4.5天;以1.026×10~2、1.026×10~4和1.026×10~6PIB/ml病毒分别处理3龄幼虫所得致死中时分别为9.4、8.4和4.9天。结果看出OaNPV对大豆叶毒蛾的毒力较高,对用于该虫防治实践具有潜力。

Assessing regional scale weed distributions, with an Australian example using Nassella trichotoma

Knowledge of the spatial distribution of weed infestations over regional scales is essential for effective management of source populations and to assess future threats. To this end, the distributions of Nassella trichotoma across a study area in south‐east New South Wales, Australia, were analysed using the geographically local Getis–Ord G_i* spatial hotspot clustering statistic. The clustering of N. trichotoma observations was analysed at three infestation levels: presence (at any density), patch level and the occasional plant level. The results indicate that there are c. 578 km² of cells containing N. trichotoma in strongly clustered infestations, 11.2 km² within weakly clustered infestations distinct from the main clusters, and 55 km² that are not clustered. There are 117 km² of strongly clustered patch level cells, 3 km² in distinct but weak clusters, and none outside of a cluster area. Of the occasional plant level cells, 329 km² are strongly clustered, 6.2 km² are in distinct but weak clusters, and 19 km² are not clustered. These results provide a mechanism by which control efforts can be prioritized. The analysis approach described in this paper provides a consistent, quantitative and repeatable approach to assess weed infestations across regional scales and can be applied to any weed species for which spatial distribution data are available.     

双线盗毒蛾的初步研究

双线盗毒蛾是黑荆树的重要害虫之一,在福建一年发生7代,以幼虫越冬。卵成块产于小枝条上,3—11天孵化。幼虫五龄,少数四龄,以取食嫩叶为主,也取食叶柄、花序等。幼虫老熟时下树,多在草丛里,枯枝落叶中结茧化蛹,预蛹期1—4天。成虫羽化后当天即可交配,第2日开始产卵,每雌平均产卵量214粒。成虫寿命3—10天。 室内试验表明:90％敌百虫晶体800—1000倍液,80％敌敌畏乳剂1000—2000倍液,50％辛硫磷乳油1000—2000倍液对4—5龄幼虫均有良好效果。化学农药防治应抓住越冬代或第一代幼虫盛发期。     

Comparison of management strategies for controlling Nassella trichotoma in modified tussock grasslands in New Zealand: a spatial and economic analysis

The weedy grass Nassella trichotoma (nassella tussock), historically an economically damaging invader of modified tussock grasslands in New Zealand, currently causes little if any reduction in farm production. This is a result of successful historical regional management programmes in which plants have been removed manually (by grubbing) each year before they seed. To inform a debate about the need for ongoing regional management, we developed a stage‐structured spatially explicit integrodifference equation population model and linked this to a cost analysis. We used the model to compare the weed's future population trajectories and related regional control costs over 50 years under three alternative management scenarios. The total discounted (3% p.a.) costs of no management, three‐yearly grubbing and continued annual grubbing were NZ $417 million, $736 million and $131 million respectively. These analyses indicate that annual grubbing of N. trichotoma returns a net benefit of $286 million ($417 – $131 million) compared with doing nothing and a net benefit of $605 million ($736 – $131 million) compared with a 3‐yearly grubbing programme. These results support the continuation of annual grubbing as the long‐term economically optimal management strategy for N. trichotoma on pastoral farms infested by the weed in New Zealand.     

豫西北地区暖性灌草丛类草地生态系统固碳特征

草地中灌木数量动态变化是影响草地生态系统碳收支的重要因素,灌木层的碳储量是草地生态系统碳库中最不确定的组分之一。暖性灌草丛在豫西北丘陵山地广泛分布,属区域典型植被类型。为揭示暖性灌草丛类草地生态系统固碳特征,对豫西北地区7个样地的灌木层、草本层与土壤碳密度进行了调查,并对生态系统碳密度进行了计算。结果表明,植被与土壤平均有机碳密度分别为2360.07和4610.47 g C·m^-2,其中灌木层植被碳密度(981.63 g C·m^-2)低于草本层(1387.44 g C·m^-2),但差异不显著(P>0.05)。植被碳密度主要由根系所贡献,占整个植被碳密度的93.04%,其中灌木层根系所占比例为41.51%,略小于草本层。生态系统中土壤碳密度占有较大比例,约占整个生态系统碳密度的62.80%。对不同样地而言,由于各自所处生境不同,其生态系统固碳特征存在一定区域差异。各样地的植被碳密度大小顺序依次为P₁>P₅>P₂>P₄>P₆>P₇>P₃,但差异并不显著(P>0.05);土壤碳密度大小顺序依次为P₁>P₂>P₆>P₅>P₄>P₃>P₇,其中P₁与P₄、P₃、P₇存在显著差异(P<0.05);生态系统碳密度大小顺序依次为:P₁>P₂>P₆>P₅>P₄>P₇>P₃,其中P₁与P₄、P₃、P₇差异显著(P<0.05)。
