神农架巴山冷杉种子雨及种实特性研究

巴山冷杉主要分布于秦巴山地，是湖北神农架地区暗针叶林的建群种，构成了当地的优势群落，对神农架地区的植被景观具有决定意义。研究巴山冷杉的结实特性，种子雨时空格局，种子萌发能力和活力劣变过程，有利于进一步认识和分析这一物种的生活史特征，群落组成结构和更新动态。对这一重要物种的合理保护和有效利用具有促进作用。 在湖北神农架自然保护区选择巴山冷杉－箭竹、巴山冷杉－茵芋和巴山冷杉－陕甘花楸群落设置样地，通过布设种子收集器结合室内实验分析，对巴山冷杉种子雨的时空格局进行研究。待巴山冷杉球果成熟时，人工采集球果和种子，测量和比较巴山冷杉的结实特征，利用发芽实验研究巴山冷杉的萌发特性，并通过人工加速老化实验探讨巴山冷杉种子的劣变过程。 巴山冷杉种子雨始于10月初，持续超过2个月，不同类型的巴山冷杉种群表现出不同的种子雨时空格局。巴山冷杉－箭竹群落中巴山冷杉种子雨平均强度167.93±111.14粒/m2，有活力种子比例占22.31%，落种高峰期集中于10月27日到11月2日间，种子雨在种群中呈现聚集分布。巴山冷杉－茵芋群落种子雨强度在三个样地中最小，只有16.41±14.41粒/m2，有活力种子仅占3.05%。巴山冷杉－陕甘花楸群落，种子雨落种高峰为10月15日至10月21日，林冠内种子雨数量占到了收集总数的87.95%。扩散的种子数量与离开中心母树的距离间的关系近似正态分布。 对巴山冷杉的结实特性的分析结果表明，巴山冷杉球果近圆柱形，球果平均长5.37±0.75cm;平均宽3.01±0.32cm;重量介于5.9g～41.3g。巴山冷杉种子长1.08～8.68mm，种子宽1.16～6.42mm，种子厚0.66～3.48mm，种子千粒重7.30g。球果单果出种量在不同种群的频数分布格局不同，巴山冷杉球果和种子的各项指标在种群间和种群内存在显著差异。球果大小、出种量及单粒种子的质量间存在着极显著的正相关关系。此外，种子生活力水平在母树间差异较大，不同母树的种子发芽率和发芽势不等且随时间的萌发进程也不相同，相同种源的巴山冷杉种子在不同的培养条件下萌发能力不同，室温条件下具有最高的发芽率但在25℃，8h光照，恒温培养时的萌发最为整齐。 高温高湿条件能够加速巴山冷杉种子的老化进程，使巴山冷杉种子的含水量发生变化，种子的活力水平随着老化时间的延长而降低，40℃，100% 相对湿度处理6天后种子基本丧失活力。

Exploring geographical dispersion in Thailand-based food supply chain (FSC)

Purpose: The purpose of this paper is to explore the key influential factors and their implications on food supply chain (FSC) location decisions from a Thailand-based manufacturer's view. Design/methodology/approach: In total, 21 case studies were conducted with eight Thailand-based food manufacturers. In each case, key influential factors were observed along with their implications on upstream and downstream FSC location decisions. Data were collected through semi-structured interviews and documentations. Data reduction and data display in tables were used to help data analysis of the case studies. Findings: This exploratory research found that, in the food industry, FSC geographical dispersion pattern could be determined by four factors: perishability, value density, economic-political forces, and technological forces. Technological forces were found as an enabler for FSC geographical dispersion whereas the other three factors could be both barriers and enablers. The implications of these four influential factors drive FSC towards four key patterns of FSC geographical dispersion: local supply chain (SC), supply-proximity SC, market-proximity SC, and international SC. Additionally, the strategy of the firm was found to also be an influential factor in determining FSC geographical dispersion. Research limitations/implications: Despite conducting 21 cases, the findings in this research are based on a relatively small sample, given the large size of the industry. More case evidence from a broader range of food product market and supply items, particularly ones that have significantly different patterns of FSC geographical dispersions would have been insightful. The consideration of additional influential factors such as labour movement between developing countries, currency fluctuations and labour costs, would also enrich the framework as well as improve the quality and validity of the research findings. The different strategies employed by the case companies and their implications on FSC location decisions should also be further investigated along with cases outside Thailand, to provide a more comprehensive view of FSC geographical location decisions. Practical implications: This paper provides insights how FSC is geographically located in both supply-side and demand-side from a manufacturing firm's view. The findings can also provide SC managers and researchers a better understanding of their FSCs. Originality/value: This research bridges the existing gap in the literature, explaining the geographical dispersion of SC particularly in the food industry where the characteristics are very specific, by exploring the internationalization ability of Thailand-based FSC and generalizing the key influential factors - perishability (lead time), value density, economic-political forces, market opportunities, and technological advancements. Four key patterns of FSC internationalization emerged from the case studies. © Emerald Group Publishing Limited.

云南眼镜蛇毒因子用于预致敏大鼠同种心脏移植的实验研究

目的观察纯化的云南眼镜蛇毒因子(Y-CVF)对预致敏大鼠同种心脏移植急性体液排斥反应的作用。方法BN大鼠到Lewis大鼠连续3次皮肤移植预致敏后行颈部异位心脏移植。将15对大鼠用随机数字法分成2组,实验组(n=8)于心脏移植前24h静脉给予Y-CVF80μg/kg;对照组(n=7)不用Y-CVF。观察移植心的生存时间,移植心停跳后病理学检查排斥类型,免疫组织化学染色观察移植心IgG和补体C3的沉积。结果Lewis大鼠预致敏后抗BN大鼠抗体滴度由0升高至1∶1028~1∶2056。对照组移植心存活时间为12·71h±13·94h,实验组移植心存活时间为99·50h±38·72h,与对照组比较差异有统计学意义(t=5·599,P<0·01)。病理检查结果证实,实验组均未发生急性体液排斥,仅见以大量单核淋巴细胞浸润为特征的急性细胞排斥反应。对照组则见以小血管内血栓形成为特征的急性体液排斥反应。免疫组织化学IgG染色实验组和对照组均为阳性,C3染色对照组为阳性,而实验组为阴性。结论使用Y-CVF可克服预致敏大鼠同种心脏移植急性体液排斥反应的发生。

Short-term in vitro responses of human peripheral blood monocytes to ferritic stainless steel fiber networks.

Beneficial effects on bone-implant bonding may accrue from ferromagnetic fiber networks on implants which can deform in vivo inducing controlled levels of mechanical strain directly in growing bone. This approach requires ferromagnetic fibers that can be implanted in vivo without stimulating undue inflammatory cell responses or cytotoxicity. This study examines the short-term in vitro responses, including attachment, viability, and inflammatory stimulation, of human peripheral blood monocytes to 444 ferritic stainless steel fiber networks. Two types of 444 networks, differing in fiber cross section and thus surface area, were considered alongside austenitic stainless steel fiber networks, made of 316L, a widely established implant material. Similar high percent seeding efficiencies were measured by CyQuant® on all fiber networks after 48 h of cell culture. Extensive cell attachment was confirmed by fluorescence and scanning electron microscopy, which showed round monocytes attached at various depths into the fiber networks. Medium concentrations of lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNF-α) were determined as indicators of viability and inflammatory responses, respectively. Percent LDH concentrations were similar for both 444 fiber networks at all time points, whereas significantly lower than those of 316L control networks at 24 h. All networks elicited low-level secretions of TNF-α, which were significantly lower than that of the positive control wells containing zymosan. Collectively, the results indicate that 444 networks produce comparable responses to medical implant grade 316L networks and are able to support human peripheral blood monocytes in short-term in vitro cultures without inducing significant inflammatory or cytotoxic effects.

Classical plume theory: 1937-2010 and beyond

Developing a theoretical description of turbulent plumes, the likes of which may be seen rising above industrial chimneys, is a daunting thought. Plumes are ubiquitous on a wide range of scales in both the natural and the man-made environments. Examples that immediately come to mind are the vapour plumes above industrial smoke stacks or the ash plumes forming particle-laden clouds above an erupting volcano. However, plumes also occur where they are less visually apparent, such as the rising stream of warmair above a domestic radiator, of oil from a subsea blowout or, at a larger scale, of air above the so-called urban heat island. In many instances, not only the plume itself is of interest but also its influence on the environment as a whole through the process of entrainment. Zeldovich (1937, The asymptotic laws of freely-ascending convective flows. Zh. Eksp. Teor. Fiz., 7, 1463-1465 (in Russian)), Batchelor (1954, Heat convection and buoyancy effects in fluids. Q. J. R. Meteor. Soc., 80, 339-358) and Morton et al. (1956, Turbulent gravitational convection from maintained and instantaneous sources. Proc. R. Soc. Lond. A, 234, 1-23) laid the foundations for classical plume theory, a theoretical description that is elegant in its simplicity and yet encapsulates the complex turbulent engulfment of ambient fluid into the plume. Testament to the insight and approach developed in these early models of plumes is that the essential theory remains unchanged and is widely applied today. We describe the foundations of plume theory and link the theoretical developments with the measurements made in experiments necessary to close these models before discussing some recent developments in plume theory, including an approach which generalizes results obtained separately for the Boussinesq and the non-Boussinesq plume cases. The theory presented - despite its simplicity - has been very successful at describing and explaining the behaviour of plumes across the wide range of scales they are observed. We present solutions to the coupled set of ordinary differential equations (the plume conservation equations) that Morton et al. (1956) derived from the Navier-Stokes equations which govern fluid motion. In order to describe and contrast the bulk behaviour of rising plumes from general area sources, we present closed-form solutions to the plume conservation equations that were achieved by solving for the variation with height of Morton's non-dimensional flux parameter Γ - this single flux parameter gives a unique representation of the behaviour of steady plumes and enables a characterization of the different types of plume. We discuss advantages of solutions in this form before describing extensions to plume theory and suggesting directions for new research. © 2010 The Author.

Driving forces shaping phytoplankton assemblages in two subtropical plateau lakes with contrasting trophic status

1. We studied driving forces shaping phytoplankton assemblages in two subtropical plateau lakes with contrasting trophic status, the oligotrophic deep Lake Fuxian and the eutrophic shallow Lake Xingyun. 2. Phytoplankton samples were taken monthly for a year and phytoplankton species were sorted into the main taxonomic groups and associations proposed by Reynolds. A canonical correspondence analysis (CCA) was used to test the occurrence of these classification schemes and to determine their discriminatory power. 3. The results suggest that the major driving forces in Lake Fuxian were physical variables, and particularly the underwater light climate, whereas, nutrients were the important driving force in Lake Xingyun. 4. Top-down control through zooplankton grazing in Lake Fuxian was hardly ever a significant determinant itself, because of the scarcity of zooplankton and their low grazing efficiency of predation while a dominance of inedible cyanobacteria throughout the year rendered top-down controls ineffective failing in Lake Xingyun. Hence phytoplankton communities in both lakes appear to be regulated primarily by bottom-up controls.

Redescription of Camallanus hypophthalmichthys Dogel and Akhmerov, 1959 (Nematoda : Camallanidae) and its first record from fishes in China

The nematode Camallanus hypophthalmichthys Dogel and Akhmerov, 1959 is redescribed from specimens collected from the intestine of the bighead carp Aristichthys nobilis, from Liangzihu Lake (Yangtze River basin), Hubei Province, central China. The light and scanning electron microscopical examination made it possible to study in detail the morphology of this so far little-known species and to confirm its validity. The main specific features of C. hypophthalmichthys distinguishing it from the most similar Camallanus spp. is the presence of 3 small caudal processes on the male tail tip, 13-16 longitudinal ridges on the inner surface of the valve of the buccal capsule, and the arrangement of preanal and postanal genital papillae in the male. This finding represents a new host record, the first record of this parasite in the Yangtze River basin, and the first documented record of C. hypophthalmichthys from China. Camallanus hypophthalmichthys is considered a specific intestinal parasite of fishes of the cyprinid Hypophthalmichthyinae.
