Assessing genetic identity of sporophytic offspring of the brown alga Undaria pinnatifida derived from mono-crossing of gametophyte clones by use of amplified fragment length polymorphism and microsatellite markers

The haploid stage of gametophytes of the subtidal brown alga Undaria pinnatifida can be vegetatively propagated under favorable conditions. This unique characteristic makes it possible to establish independent gametophyte cell lines that are zoospore-derived. Sporophytic offspring can be generated through hybridizing the male and female gametophytes, which are derived from different cell lines. Accumulated experiences in this and other species in Laminariales demonstrated the applicability of this novel way to breed desired strains for open-sea cultivation. Sporophytic offspring originated from mono-crossing of male and female gametophyte clones were shown to have similar morphological characteristics under identical ambient conditions. However, there has been no report to relate this similarity on molecular levels. In this report, amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) and microsatellite markers were used to analyze the genetic identity of sporophytic offspring of U. pinnatifida originated from two mono-crossing lines (M1 and M2), two self-breeding lines (S1 and S2) and one wild population (W). Totally 318 AFLP loci were revealed by use of 11 primer sets, of which 4.7%, 0.3%, 17.9%, 16.4% and 36.5% were polymorphic in M1, M2, S1, S2 and W, respectively. The pairwise genetic identity among the individuals of the same line was assessed. It was shown that offspring from mono-crossing lines had a higher degree of identity (95.6-100%) than self-breeding lines (87.7-98.4%) and the wild population (81.5-92.1%). Analysis by use of six microsatellite loci also revealed a higher genetic identity among individuals of the mono-crossing line, further confirming the results of AFLP analysis. Results from this investigation support, on molecular levels, the novel way to produce and maintain strains in U. pinnatifida by use of different gametophyte cell lines.

A thioredoxin with antioxidant activity identified from Eriocheir sinensis

Thioredoxin, with a redox-active disulfide/dithiol in the active site, is the major ubiquitous disulfide reductase responsible for maintaining proteins in their reduced state. In the present study, the cDNA encoding thioredoxin-1 (designated EsTrx1) was cloned from Chinese mitten crab Eriocheir sinensis by using rapid amplification of cDNA ends (RACE) approaches. The full-length cDNA of EsTrx1 was of 641 bp, containing a 51 untranslated region (UTR) of 17 bp, a 3' UTR of 306 bp with a poly (A) tail, and an open reading frame (ORF) of 318 bp encoding a polypeptide of 105 amino acids. The high similarity of EsTrx1 with Trx1s from other animals indicated that EsTrx1 should be a new member of the Trx1 sub-family. Quantitative real-time PCR analysis revealed the presence of EsTrx1 transcripts in gill, gonad, hepato-pancreas, muscle, heart and haemocytes. The expression of EsTrx1 mRNA in haemocytes was up-regulated after Listonella anguillarum challenge, reached the maximum level at 6 h post-stimulation, and then dropped back to the original level gradually. In order to elucidate its biological functions, EsTrx1 was recombined and expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3). The rEsTrx1 was demonstrated to possess the expected redox activity in enzymatic analysis, and to be more potent than GSH in antioxidant capacity. These results together indicated that EsTrx1 could function as an important antioxidant in a physiological context, and perhaps is involved in the responses to bacterial challenge.

Sequence analysis and functional study of thymidylate synthase from zebrafish, Danio rerio

The thymidylate synthase (TS), an important target for many anticancer drugs, has been cloned from different species. But the cDNA property and function of TS in zebrafish are not well documented. In order to use zebrafish as an animal model for screening novel anticancer agents, we isolated TS cDNA from zebrafish and compared its sequence with those from other species. The open reading frame (ORF) of zebrafish TS cDNA sequence was 954 nucleotides, encoding a 318-amino acid protein with a calculated molecular mass of 36.15 kDa. The deduced amino acid sequence of zebrafish TS was similar to those from other organisms, including rat, mouse and humans. The zebrafish TS protein was expressed in Escherichia coli and purified to homogeneity. The purified zebrafish TS showed maximal activity at 28 degrees C with similar K-m value to human TS. Western immunoblot assay confirmed that TS was expressed in all the developmental stages of zebrafish with a high level of expression at the 1-4 cell stages. To study the function of TS in zebrafish embryo development, a short hairpin RNA (shRNA) expression vector, pSilencer 4.1-CMV/TS, was constructed which targeted the protein-coding region of zebrafish TS mRNA. Significant change in the development of tail and epiboly was found in zebrafish embryos microinjected pSilencer4.1-CMV/TS siRNA expression vector.

Effects of cold shock on microtubule organization and cell cycle in gynogenetically activated eggs of olive flounder (Paralichthys olivaceus)

Cytological changes and subsequent mitotic processes were studied in gynogenetically activated eggs of olive flounder subjected to cold-shock treatment using indirect immunofluorescence staining of isolated blastodisks. Obvious differences between controls and treated eggs were detected during early cell division. The developmental process of haploid control was similar to that of the diploid control except several minutes delayed. Spindles disassembled by the cold-shock treatment regenerated soon after treatment, resulting in the occurrence of the first mitosis. The immature daughter centriole was easily depolymerized by cold-shock treatment, leading to the formation of the bipolar spindle in the first cell cycle and the formation of the monopolar spindle in the second cell cycle, resulting in chromosome set doubling. Some two-cell stage eggs had a monopolar spindle in one blastomere and a bipolar spindle in another during the second mitosis. These eggs had a high potency developing into haploid-diploid mosaics. To the best of our knowledge, this study is the first to clarify the mechanism of chromosome set doubling in marine fishes and provides a preliminary cytological basis for developing a reliable and efficient protocol for mitotic gynogenesis induction by cold-shock treatment in olive flounder.

牙鲆和大黄鱼经济性状候选基因的DNA分子标记研究

本文利用不同的分子标记方法，分别对牙鲆及大黄鱼不同养殖群体的生长、抗病等经济性状的候选基因进行了序列多态性研究，检测到了几个SNP位点和微卫星的多态性位点，并分析了它们与经济性状之间的相关性；同时，利用微卫星的多态性位点对牙鲆2个养殖群体的遗传变异进行了分析，这些均为海水鱼类遗传育种及标记辅助选育工作提供了基础数据。 在牙鲆胶南养殖群体中，以100个个体为实验材料，根据其生长激素（GH）基因的6个外显子序列设计引物，通过SSCP分析技术显示该群体GH基因的第4外显子存在多态性，检测到2种基因型，AA型和AB型。DNA测序结果表明，AB型在第1763位发生碱基突变，c→t，与AA型同源性达到99%。连锁分析结果表明：这2种基因型的个体在体重和头长上表现出显著的差异，AB型个体的体重和头长都明显大于AA型个体(P<0.05)，由此推测等位基因B是一个对牙鲆体重和头长都有利的等位基因；这2种基因型个体之间在其体型性状上也存在显著差异（P<0.05）；同时，该多态位点的Hardy-Weinberg平衡性检验结果表明，该群体处于Hardy-Weinberg平衡状态。在牙鲆GH基因第1外显子区域还发现了一个微卫星位点，对该位点进行多态性分析，检测到5种基因型、3种等位基因，one-way ANOVA统计结果显示，基因型AC个体的体重、头长和体高明显大于其它基因型个体（P<0.05），C是一个对体重、头长和体高有利的等位基因。 对2个大黄鱼养殖群体的GH基因进行SSCP分析后发现，浙江群体大黄鱼GH基因在第196位存在1个SNP（g→a）位点，检测到2种基因型，AA和AB。t检验结果表明，AA型个体的体高比AB型个体的高(P≤0.05)，但AB型个体在体长/体高上占优势(P≤0.05)，提示该突变位点可以作为大黄鱼体型性状的候选标记。福建群体大黄鱼GH基因在第692位有1个SNP位点(t→c)，共检测到2种基因型，CC型和CD型，其中，CD基因型个体的体重和全长显著大于CC基因型个体(P≤0.01)，提示该位点可以作为大黄鱼体重和头长性状的候选标记。 在牙鲆胶南和日照2个养殖群体中，采用牙鲆GHR基因5’端Promoter区的一个微卫星标记，进行了群体遗传变异的研究，并探索了该基因多态性位点与牙鲆生长性状之间的相关性。结果表明，2个群体在该位点检测到的等位基因数为12和9个，有效等位基因数为6.26和5.04个。两个群体该位点的Hardy-Weinberg遗传偏离指数均为正值，并没有显示出杂合子缺失，但各基因型分布频率都在一定程度上偏离Hardy-Weinberg平衡(P<0.01)。连锁分析发现，在胶南群体中，IM基因型对应的个体在全重、全长、体长、头长、体高和眼径形态学数据中均是最大的，但仅在体重上极其显著的大于全部其它基因型个体；在日照群体中，BC基因型对应的个体在全重、全长、体高、尾柄高、尾柄长和眼径数据中均是最大的；而CJ基因型对应的个体在体长和头长这两组数据中是最大的。由此认为，该位点IM基因型可以作为牙鲆体重性状的潜在标记。 在进行牙鲆抗病性状标记的筛选时，利用迟缓爱德华氏菌（Edwardsiella tarda）LSE40对牙鲆鱼进行攻毒感染实验，得到死亡群体和未死亡群体。选择Toll样受体基因中的TLR2、TLR3和TLR9基因作为候选基因，分别对这3个基因中的部分序列共设计7对引物进行扩增，同时对扩增产物进行RFLP多态性分析，目前只在TLR3基因内检测到一个EcoRI的酶切多态性位点，测序后发现，这是由于在TLR3基因第3806位的EcoRI酶切位点在某些个体中缺失所致。酶切产物共呈现出3种基因型，分别定义为AA，AB和BB。χ2检验证明该多态性位点与牙鲆抗迟缓爱德华氏菌LSE40的能力有一定关系。利用多因素非条件Logistic回归分析对死亡组和存活组牙鲆的各种形态学数据以及不同基因型之间进行了分析，发现体长、头长和体高均具有显著的相关性（P<0.05），而这几个因素与体重的相关性不显著（P>0.05）。多因素非条件Logistic分析后发现：AA基因型对死亡率具有显著的影响（P<0.05），是主要的危险因素，而AB基因型的作用不显著（P>0.05）；头长是主要的保护因素（P<0.05），体重对死亡率的影响很小。χ2检验证明，等位基因A是对死亡的主要危险等位基因，B是对存活有利的主要等位基因。推测该位点可以作为牙鲆抗迟缓爱德华氏菌的潜在标记。

中华绒螯蟹（Eriocheir sinensis）Peroxiredoxin 6和Thioredoxin1基因的克隆及表达

中华绒螯蟹是我国重要的水产经济动物，近年来养殖规模不断扩大，产量持续增加。但是，伴随着养殖规模的扩大，养殖环境也日益恶化并导致了大量疾病的发生，严重制约了中华绒螯蟹养殖业的健康发展。因此，疾病预防和控制对中华绒螯蟹养殖业的可持续发展具有举足轻重的作用。与其他无脊椎动物一样，中华绒螯蟹的免疫系统没有免疫球蛋白和淋巴细胞，而是依靠由细胞免疫和体液免疫构成的固有免疫系统来对病原进行识别和清除。中华绒螯蟹的固有免疫机制的研究有助于推动中华绒螯蟹病害防治工作的开展。 本研究采用大规模EST测序方法，结合末端快速扩增（rapid amplification of cDNA ends，RACE）技术从中华绒螯蟹血淋巴中克隆到了过氧化物还原酶（peroxiredoxin，EsPrx6）和硫氧还蛋白（thioredoxin，EsTrx1）基因的cDNA 全长序列；采用实时荧光定量PCR 技术检测了这两个基因在健康个体中表达的组织分布情况以及鳗弧菌刺激后血淋巴细胞中的时序表达规律；同时，将这两个基因的编码区克隆到pET 系列载体，并在大肠杆菌中实现了重组表达，并进行了体外活性检测。 过氧化物还原酶是一个抗氧化蛋白超家族，在保护机体免受活性氧（reactive oxygen species，ROS）的伤害中发挥着重要作用。中华绒螯蟹Prx6（EsPrx6） 基因的cDNA 全长为1076 bp，5` UTR（untranslated region，UTR） 为69 bp，3` UTR 为347 bp，开放阅读框（open reading frame，ORF）为660 bp，编码219 个氨基酸的蛋白。mRNA 3`-端具有多聚腺苷酸加尾信号（polyadenylation signal）AATAAA 和polyA 尾巴。EsPrx6 的预测分子量为 24 kDa，理论等电点为6.21，具有一个保守的Prx 结构域、一个AhpC 结构域和过氧化物酶催化活性中心PVCTTE，表明EsPrx6 属于1-Cys 型Prx。在所检测的组织中均有EsPrx6 的表达，其中以肝胰腺表达量最高，为血淋巴细胞中表达量的17.4 倍。鳗弧菌刺激后，血淋巴细胞中EsPrx6 的表达下降，到12 h 时，实验组显著低于对照组（P<0.05）；随时间推移，表达水平逐渐回升，但在整个实验期间，都没有恢复到起始水平。将EsPrx6 进行体外重组并在大肠杆菌E. coli BL21（DE3）中实现表达，重组EsPrx6 具有预期的抗氧化活性和过氧化物酶活性，其中抗氧化活力为14.69 U/mg 蛋白，高于相同条件下GSH 的抗氧化力（P<0.05），过氧化物酶活力为23.46 U/mg 蛋白。结果表明，EsPrx6 作为一种重要的抗氧化剂，在中华绒螯蟹抵御ROS 可能引起的氧化损伤方面具有重要作用。 硫氧还蛋白是广泛存在于生物体内的一种具有硫醇依赖性的具有还原活性的蛋白。中华绒螯蟹Trx1（EsTrx1）基因的cDNA 全长为641 bp，5` UTR 为17 bp，3` UTR 为306 bp，开放阅读框为318 bp，编码105 个氨基酸。EsTrx1 的预测分子量为12.2 kDa，理论等电点为4.8。EsTrx1 不含信号肽，其氨基酸序列与其他动物的Trx1s 具有高度相似性，如与地中海黄蝎的Trx1 相似度达到73%；而与其他物种Trx2 的同源性很低，相似度仅为14.3-22.8%，表明EsTrx1 属于Trx1 亚族。实时荧光定量PCR 检测发现，EsTrx1 在鳃、性腺、肝胰腺、肌肉、心脏和血淋巴细胞中都有表达。血淋巴细胞中EsTrx1 mRNA 的表达量在菌刺激后上升，刺激后6 h，实验组表达量显著高于对照组和空白组（P<0.05），然后逐渐恢复到刺激前水平。为进一步探讨其生物学功能，将EsTrx1 进行体外重组并在大肠杆菌E. coli BL21（DE3）得到表达，重组EsTrx1 具有预期的氧化还原调节活性，抗氧化活力为3.06 U/mg，且抗氧化活力高于GSH（P<0.05）。rEsTrx1 的二硫键还原活力为5.03，低于凡纳滨对虾的二硫键还原活力（10.44），接近于大肠杆菌（4.93），小牛胸腺（6.50）和小牛肝脏（5.09），而高于鲍鱼Trx2（1.83）活力。结果表明，EsTrx1 在生理条件下能够作为一种重要的抗氧化剂，参与对细菌感染的免疫应答反应。

本文描述了狭颚绒螯蟹各期（左三点水右蚤）状幼体的形态（共5期）。并对中华绒螯蟹和狭颚绒螯蟹各期（左三点水右蚤）状幼体形态做了比较。区分两种幼体。据1986年调查资料长江口外北纬31°8-31°50'东经122°30'-123°50'的区域力中华绒螯蟹和狭颚绒螯蟹（左三点水右蚤）状幼体的集中分布区。状幼体从4月下旬5月初开始。5月份（左三点水右蚤）状幼体数量最大。并联系（左三点水右蚤）状幼体生活习性和长江口区的水文特点。讨论了绒螯蟹早期（左三点水右蚤）状幼体从亲螯蟹殖区扩散到近海发育。大眼幼体随底流返回河口的输送规律。叙述了梭子蟹和鲟类幼体的数量分布。另外，用逐步多元回归方法分析了蟹苗产量与径流的关系。结果表明崇明岛蟹苗产量前一年的10月-次年的3月径流量明显正相关，与5、6月份径流量明显负相关。

海带、裙带菜和羊栖菜的遗传分析

利用AFLP标记对海带在太平洋西北沿岸的6个主要栽培品系和6个野生地理隔离种群进行遗传多样性和亲缘关系分析。通过10对选择性引物总共检测到547个位点。在品系和种群水平，多态性位点比例（P），基因多样性（H）和香农指数（I）在大连野生种群中最高（P: 59.05%; H: 0.2057; I: 0.3062），而在连江栽培品系中最低（P: 9.87%; H: 0.0331; I: 0.0497）。在物种水平（即对所有品系和种群来说），P, H 和I 的值分别是85.01%，0.1948和0.3096。以个体间的相似系数（Dice）和种群间的遗传距离为基础，用非加权类平均法（UPGMA）分别构建个体和种群间的系统树图。AMOVA分析显示，大部分的遗传变异（60.21%）存在于品系和种群间，少部分（39.79%）存在于品系或种群内。遗传分化系数GST的值是0.6226，与FST的值（0.6021）非常接近，基因流（Nm）的值是0.1515，这三个值表明种群（品系）间存在高度的遗传分化。Mantel检验发现6个野生种群的遗传距离或遗传分化与地理距离呈正相关性（相关系数分别是r=0.8870, P=0.007 和 r=0.7962, P=0.011），符合“距离隔离（isolation by distance, IBD）”模型。总体来说，种群（品系）内的遗传多样性处于低到中等水平（大连种群除外），而它们之间的遗传分化程度非常高。 用AFLP和微卫星标记对裙带菜配子体克隆单一交配组合的孢子体后代的遗传一致性进行分析。在这项研究中，建立了2个配子体克隆单一交配系（M1和M2），2个自交系（S1和S2）并采集1个野生种群（W）。11组AFLP引物总共检测到318个位点。M1, M2, S1, S2 和W的多态性位点比例分别是4.7%，0.3%，17.9%，16.4%和36.5%。M1和M2个体间的遗传相似度（95.6-100%）要高于S1和S2（87.7-98.4%）以及W（81.5-92.1%）。在微卫星分析中，用了6个位点。M1在其中的5个位点基因型一致，而在Up-AC-2B2位点显示出不同的基因型。M2在所有6个微卫星位点的基因型都一致。而S1, S2和W都在2个以上的位点检测到不同的基因型。总之，AFLP与微卫星的分析结果一致，即配子体克隆单一交配组合的孢子体后代呈现高度遗传相似性，但也存在细微的差异。 对中国羊栖菜主产区浙江省洞头县的12个羊栖菜养殖品系的重要形态特征进行了比较研究，并利用AFLP技术对一个典型养殖种群的遗传多样性进行了分析。结果显示，这12个品系在全长、全湿质量、侧枝长、侧枝湿质量、侧枝密度等方面存在显著或极显著差异（P<0.05或P<0.01）。8组AFLP引物在这个典型养殖种群中扩增出198个片段，其中多态性片段为166个，多态性位点比例为83.8%。根据个体间的遗传距离，以UPGMA法构建了个体间的系统树图，27个羊栖菜个体聚为一枝，作为对照的铜藻为另一枝。本研究从形态和DNA分子水平说明了浙江洞头羊栖菜养殖种群具有高度遗传多样性。

Control mechanisms of diel vertical migration: Theoretical assumptions

We explore control mechanisms underlying the vertical migration of zooplankton in the water column under the predator-avoidance hypothesis. Two groups of assumptions in which the organisms are assumed to migrate vertically in order to minimize realized or effective predation pressure (type-I) and to minimize changes in realized or effective predation pressure (type-II), respectively, are investigated. Realized predation pressure is defined as the product of light intensity and relative predation abundance and the part of realized predation pressure that really affects organisms is termed as effective predation pressure. Although both types of assumptions can lead to the migration of zooplankton to avoid the mortality from predators, only the mechanisms based on type-II assumptions permit zooplankton to undergo a normal diel vertical migration (morning descent and evening ascent). The assumption of minimizing changes in realized predation pressure is based on consideration of DVM induction only by light intensity and predators. The assumption of minimizing changes in effective predation pressure takes into account, apart from light and predators also the effects of food and temperature. The latter assumption results in the same expression of migration velocity as the former one when both food and temperature are constant over water depth. A significant characteristic of the two type-II assumptions is that the relative change in light intensity plays a primary role in determining the migration velocity. The photoresponse is modified by other environmental variables: predation pressure, food and temperature. Both light and predation pressure are necessary for organisms to undertake DVM. We analyse the effect of each single variable. The modification of the phototaxis of migratory organisms depends on the vertical distribution of these variables. (C) 2001 Academic Press.

Holosticha hamulata n. sp and Holosticha heterofoissneri Hu and Song, 2001, two urostylid ciliates (Protozoa, Ciliophora) from intertidal sediments of the Yellow Sea

Two marine urostylid ciliates, Holosticha hamulata n. sp. and Holosticha heterofoissneri Hu and Song, 2001, were investigated using live observation and protargol impregnation. Both species were isolated from Korean intertidal sediments of the Yellow Sea. Holosticha hamulata measures about 150 x 25 pro in vivo, and is characterized by a tripartite body shape with a narrow head, an inflated trunk, and a tail that distally projects ventrally forming a hook-like structure. It is the characteristic body shape that distinguishes H. hamulata distinctly from congeners. Holosticha hamulata differs from H. heterofoissneri, possibly the nearest relative, also by the location of the contractile vacuole (ahead of mid-body versus near posterior body third) and the configuration of the macronucleus (on average, 33 scattered nodules assuming a Y-shape versus 17 nodules that may form a U shape). The average number of the macronuclear nodules is a pronounced feature showing great consistency in populations of each species. However, their arrangement is variable in H. heterofoissneri where the nodules are basically scattered or connected by fine fibers forming an elongate U-shape. The location of the contractile vacuole as a taxonomic feature is discussed and a dichotomous key to the species of Holosticha sensu stricto is provided.

青藏高原药用植物唐古特山莨菪和唐古特大黄光合作用对强光的响应

与唐古特大黄相比，唐古特山莨菪的表观光合量子效率（AQY）较高，但最大净光合速率（Pmax）较低．在光强小于1200μmol•m^-2•s^-1时，后者用于碳同化的电子传递占总光合电子传递的比例（JC/JP）比前者高，而分配于光呼吸的电子传递（JO/JP）及Rubisco氧化和羧化速率的比值（VO/VC）则相反；光强大于1200μmol•m^-2•s^-1以后两种植物的这些参数都趋向稳定．随光强增加，后者叶片吸收光能分配于热耗散（D）的增加斜率较前者高，表明两高山植物对强辐射的适应方式略有不同。加强光呼吸途径的耗能代谢和PSII天线热耗散份额是唐古特山莨菪适应高原强辐射的主要方式，而提高叶片光合能力则是唐古特大黄的一种适应方式。

滑坡和泥石流致灾条件叠合技术及风险分析-以川藏公路然乌至鲁朗段为例

As one part of national road No. 318, Sichuan-Tibet (Chengdu-Lasha) Highway is one of traffic life lines connecting Tibet municipality to the inland, which is very important to the economic development of Tibet. In addition, it is still an important national defence routeway, with extremely important strategic position on maintaining the stability and solidarity of Tibet municipality and consolidating national defence. Particular geological condition, terrain and landform condition and hydrometeorological condition induce large-scale debris flows and landslides (including landslips) and the like geological hazards frequently occur along the highway. High frequency geological hazards not only result in high casualties and a great property loss, but also block traffic at every turn, obstructing the Sichuan-Tibet highway seriously. On the basis of considerable engineering geological investigation and analysis to the relative studying achievements of predecessors, it is found that one of the dominating reason incurring landslides or debris flows again and again in a place is that abundant loose materials are accumulated in valleys and slopes along the highway. Taking landslides' and debris flows along Ranwu-Lulang section of Sichuan-Tibet highway as studying objects, the sources and cause of formation of loose accumulation materials in the studying area are analyzed in detail, the major hazard-inducing conditions, hazard, dynamic risk, prediction of susceptibility degree of landslides and debris flows, and the relations between landslides and debris flows and various hazard-inducing conditions are systematically researched in this paper. All of these will provide scientific foundation for the future highway renovating and reducing and preventing geological hazards. For the purpose of quantitatively analyzing landslide and debris flow hazards, the conception of entropy and information entropy are extended, the conception of geological hazard entropy is brought forward, and relevant mathematics model is built. Additionally, a new approach for the dynamic risk analysis of landslide and debris flow is put forward based on the dynamic characteristics of the hazard of hazard-inducings and the vulnerability of hazard-bearings. The formation of landslide and debris flow is a non-linear process, which is synthetically affected by various factors, and whose formation mechanics is extremely complex. Aiming at this question, a muli-factors classifying and overlapping technique is brought forward on the basis of engineering geomechanics meta-synthesis (EGMS) thought and approach, and relevant mathematics model is also built to predict the susceptibility degree of landslide or debris flow. The example analysis result proves the validity of this thought and approach. To studying the problem that whether the formation and space distribution of landslides and debris flows are controlled by one or several hazard-inducing conditions, the theme graphics of landslides and debris flows hazard and various hazard-inducing conditions are overlapped to determine the relationship between hazard and hazard-inducing conditions. On this basis, the semi-quantitative engineering zonation of the studying area is carried out. In addition, the overlapping analysis method of the hazard-indue ing conditions of landslides and debris flows based on "digital graphics system" is advanced to orderly organize and effectively manage the spatial and attributive data of hazard and hazard-inducing conditions theme graphics, and to realize the effectively combination of graphics, images and figures.
