香溪河水系大型底栖动物功能摄食类群生态学

2004年7月至2007年6月,通过大型底栖无脊椎动物的量化监测,对三峡水库湖北库区最大河流香溪河大型底栖无脊椎动物功能摄食类群生态学进行研究。结果表明:香溪河大型底栖动物以收集者占绝对优势,其次为刮食者,捕食者、滤食者、撕食者相对丰度较小;各功能摄食类群分布明显受时空资源位的限制;香溪河物质循环能力、两岸物质的输入量和粗有机颗粒/细有机颗粒在九冲河明显高于其它河流,在冬季高于其它季节;物质输送能力以高岚河最高,在时间方面以冬季明显高于其它季节。逐步回归分析表明,流速、电导、浊度、总氮、二氧化硅对香溪河河

念珠藻葛仙米生理生化特性对不同低温胁迫的响应

研究了不同培养温度下对念珠藻葛仙米的生长和相关生理生化特性的变化。结果表明,低温抑制葛仙米的生长,在2℃~5℃低温下其生长甚至完全停止;在10℃低温胁迫下,其生长延滞期变长,其后仍能保持正常生长。低温胁迫下,葛仙米光合系统II(PSII)的光合效率(Fv/Fm)的变化趋势与生长曲线相似;细胞电解质渗透率在低温胁迫初期尚能保持比较低的水平,但随着时间延长而升高;可溶性糖和还原性糖含量的变化则随胁迫加剧有不同程度升高。可溶性蛋白含量则在低温下保持比较低的水平。这些结果表明,低温对葛仙米的生长和光合作用具有抑制

鄱阳湖南矶山自然保护区鲤、鲫的随机扩增多态DNA分析

利用RAPD(随机扩增多态)标记分析湖内鲤、鲫群体遗传多样性,从40个随机引物中各筛选出8个引物适合鲤、鲫群体RAPD扩增。在鲤群体中,共检测出60条带,其中多态性带42条,多态位点比率为70.00%;而在鲫群体中,共检测出61条带,其中多态性带40条,多态位点比率为65.57%。用POPGENE软件分析实验数据,结果显示:湖内鲤群体的遗传多样性水平(He=0.230 1,H0=0.391 0)和鲫群体的遗传多样性水平(He=0.218 6,H0=0.375 8)都较高,都有较大的遗传变异。而在鲤、鲫群体

人工湿地组合工艺对水体中浮游动物群落结构的影响

研究了在不同水力负荷条件下[0.6 m3.(m2.d)-1,0.8 m3.(m2.d)-1,1.0 m3.(m2.d)-1],人工湿地组合工艺系统对浮游动物群落结构的影响和在相同的水力负荷下,人工湿地组合工艺系统对浮游动物群落结构影响的季节性变化.结果表明,在水力冲击负荷为0.8 m3.(m2.d)-1时对浮游动物群落结构的影响相对较大;春、夏、秋季的作用强于冬季,而秋季对浮游动物群落结构的影响最大;对大型浮游动物的影响大(去除率≥70%),对小型浮游动物的影响相对小一些,湿地出水中出现了一些进水中没有的

武昌东湖的数种介形类甲壳动物

<正> 介形类是底栖的切甲类甲壳动物,部分种类的触角上具有发达的游泳刚毛,所以在通常采到的浮游生物标本中亦很常见。早在1903年,G.O.Sars 氏曾经报导过采自我国的介形类共三属五新种。1923年,V.Brehm 也报导过采自我国广州、北京、四川等地的数种介形类,其中还有一新属,三新种及一新变种。

Ultrastructure of the Spermatozoa of the Yangtze Finless Porpoise (Neophocaena phocaenoides asiaeorientalis)

P>Semen sample was collected from two captive adult Yangtze finless porpoises (Neophocaena phocaenoides asiaeorientalis) during physical examination. One individual was aged about 9 years with body length 143 cm (total length) and body weight 46.1 kg in 2003. The age of the other was unknown and its body length was 147 cm and body weight was 43 kg in 2004. Ultrastructure of their spermatozoa was examined using scanning and transmission electron microscope. The sperm concentration was 4.17 x 10(9) spermatozoa per ml by the cytometer. The approximate dimensions of the spermatozoa were as follows: head length, 3.366 +/- 0.140 mu m (mean +/- SE, n = 15); head width, 1.896 +/- 0.099 mu m (n = 15); and neck length, 1.004 +/- 0.074 mu m (n = 10). The tail included midpiece, principal piece and terminal piece. The length of the midpiece was 1.882 +/- 0.077 mu m (n = 9). There is no apparent boundary between the principal piece and the terminal piece, so the length of the principal piece and the terminal piece was 44.612 +/- 3.485 mu m (n = 5). Total length of the spermatozoa was 53.314 +/- 4.580 mu m (n = 10). The acrosome covered approximately 45.8% of the anterior portion of the head.

First description of a novel Weissella species as an opportunistic pathogen for rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum) in China

Six strains of Gram-positive, catalase-negative, non-motile, irregular short rod-shaped Weissella bacteria, with width and length of 0.5-0.6 and 1.2-2.7 mu m were isolated from diseased rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss (Walbaum) in winter of 2007 at a commercial fishery in Jingmen, Hubei province, China. The diseased rainbow trout exhibited hemorrhage in eyes, anal region, intestine and abdomen wall, petechia of liver, some fish with hydrocele in stomach. Six isolates had identical biochemical reactions, phylogenetic analysis of 16S rDNA sequences, amplified ribosomal DNA restriction analysis (ARDRA), enzymatic profile analysis and antimicrobial susceptibility results, indicating as a single clonal outbreak. But all were different from any other validated twelve Weissella species in the term of physiological and biochemical characters. It is indicated that isolates are phylogenetically closer to Weissella halotolerans, Weissella viridescens and Weissella minor on 16S rDNA phylogenetic analysis result, than to W halotolerans and W viridescens on the result of ARDRA study and enzymatic profile analysis. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing was used to scan effective drugs for the therapy of this disease. Experimental infection assays with one isolate were conducted and pathogenicity (by intraperitoneal injection) was demonstrated in rainbow trout O. mykiss (Walbaum) and crucian carp (Carassius auratus gibelio) fingerlings. Because no Weissella was detected in fish feedstuffs and pond water, the source of this pathogen remains unknown, and Weissella isolates were regarded as an opportunistic pathogen for rainbow trout. This is the first report of Weissella strains which can cause disease of cultured fish in the world. (C) 2009 Elsevier B.V. All rights reserved.
