压力室测定根系导水率方法探讨

用压力室连续测定了玉米根系升压和降压过程的导水率。结果表明 ,降压过程测得的根系导水率显著大于用升压过程的 ,并且前者的相关系数大于后者。这种差异是由于这两个过程中质外体途径细胞壁空间充水量不同造成的。开始升压时 ,由于细胞壁空间含水量低 ,质外体途径阻力大 ,导致非结构阻力 ;随着压力的升高 ,细胞壁空间含水量增大 ,质外体途径导度增大 ,减小甚至可以消除非结构阻力。降压法可以使根系快速复水 ,消除传统方法因长时间复水所致根结构的改变。建议用降压法测定根系导水率

秸秆还田对灌溉玉米田土壤反硝化及N_2O排放的影响

运用乙炔抑制技术研究了不同施氮水平下秸秆还田对灌溉玉米田土壤反硝化反应和氧化亚氮(N2O)排放的影响。结果表明,土壤反硝化速率及N2O的排放受氮肥施用、秸秆处理方式及其交互作用的显著影响。与秸秆燃烧相比,不施氮或低施氮水平时,秸秆还田可刺激培养初期反硝化反应速率及N2O排放,增加培养期间N2O平均排放通量;高施氮水平时,秸秆还田可降低反硝化反应速率及反硝化过程中的N2O排放。秸秆还田可降低反硝化中N2O/N2的比例。

免耕和施肥对玉米光合速率的影响

依据在陕西安塞进行的田间试验,研究了黄土丘陵旱农区传统翻耕和免耕及化肥和有机肥对玉米光合速率和气孔导度的影响。结果表明,免耕措施下玉米的光合速率、气孔导度、水分利用效率均高于传统翻耕,气孔导度的日变化与光合速率显著相关。在黄土丘陵区实施免耕既有利于作物对有限降水的高效利用,提高作物产量,也可促进农田系统生产力可持续提高。

Probabilistic modelling of soil moisture dynamics of irrigated cropland in the North China Plain

A probabilistic soil moisture dynamic model is used to estimate the soil moisture probability distribution and plant water stress of irrigated cropland in the North China Plain. Soil moisture and meteorological data during the period of 1998 to 2003 were obtained from an irrigated cropland ecosystem with winter wheat and maize in the North China Plain to test the probabilistic soil moisture dynamic model. Results showed that the model was able to capture the soil moisture dynamics and estimate long-term water balance reasonably well when little soil water deficit existed. The prediction of mean plant water stress during winter wheat and maize growing season quantified the suitability of the wheat-maize rotation to the soil and climate environmental conditions in North China Plain under the impact of irrigation. Under the impact of precipitation fluctuations, there is no significant bimodality of the average soil moisture probability density function.

The integrative expression of GUS gene driven by FCP promoter in the seaweed Laminaria japonica (Phaeophyta)

In this study, the background activity of beta-glucuronidase (GUS) was analyzed histochemically and fluorometrically in the negative control of Laminaria japonica (Phaeophyta) thalli, showing low level of activity. GUS gene transformation without selectable gene in L. japonica was performed using four different promoters, i.e., Cauliflower mosaic virus 35S promoter (CaMV35S) from cauliflower mosaic virus, ubiquitin promoter (UBI) from maize, adenine-methyl transfer enzyme gene promoter (AMT) from virus in green alga Chlorella, and fucoxanthin chlorophyll a/c-binding protein gene promoter (FCP) from diatom Phaeodactylum tricornutum. The GUS transient activity was determined fluorometrically after bombarding sliced parthenogenetic sporophytes explants, and it was found that the activity resulting from CaMV35S and FCP promoters (in 114.3 and 80.6 pmol MU min(-1) (mg protein)(-1), respectively) was higher than for the other two promoters. The female gametophytes were bombarded and regenerated parthenogenetic sporophytes. FCP was the only promoter that resulted in detectable GUS chimeric expression activity during histochemical staining and polymerase chain reaction. Results of Southern blot showed that GUS gene was integrated with the L. japonica genome.

Simple, mild and convenient synthesis of two novel N-dichloroacetyl oxazolidines and their biological activities

Two N-dichloroacetyl oxazolidines were synthesized with a simple, mild and convenient method. All the compounds were characterized by IR, (HNMR)-H-1 and elemental analysis. The preliminary biological test showed that the compounds protected maize against injury by some herbicides to some extent.

青海糯性春小麦综合标记辅助育种研究

选用全糯小麦品种‘糯麦1号’与青海主要栽培品种‘阿勃’杂交，综合利用改良碘染色法、SDS-PAGE法和Waxy基因的分子标记等，对杂交后代进行了鉴定筛选。最终从F2代鉴定出了5粒全糯种子，从F_代鉴定出8株Wx-B1亚基缺失的植株。对全糯株系F_3代的农艺性状进行评价，5个全糯株系的综合农艺性状都优于‘糯麦1号’，与‘阿勃’较接近。测定全糯株系和Wx-B1亚基缺失植株F_4代种子的直链淀粉含量，5个全糯株系F_4代种子的直链淀粉含量接近于0，8个Wx-B1亚基缺失植株F_4代种子的直链淀粉含量在总 体上比‘阿勃’的直链淀粉含量低。研究表明，采用综合标记辅助选择可快速而准确地获得适合在青海栽培的全糯和部分糯性小麦。
