  • Study on Acid Tolerance in Rhizobium meliloti and Its Symbiosis System

    Jiang Hua;Duan Xinhui;Shan Guilian;He Chenggang;

    Soil pH is a main factor that affects the nodule formation and nitrogen fixation. The largely reduced nitrogen fixation effect caused by acid soil is the major limitation of alfalfa growth in the south of China. Thus selection of anti-acid nodule for inoculating on alfalfa is of great significance in practical production.Using nine candidate rhizobia( Rhizobium meliloti L.) as study objects,their colony diameters and the nodule number of each strain inoculated alfalfa variety were investigated at different pH conditions. The YNCY006 strain presented the strongest resistance to acid,while YNCY007 strain presented the weakest. For nodulation,GT13 R alfalfa inoculated with YNCY006 or YNCY008 strains was the best symbiosis system in the acidic soil.

  • Ecological Effects of Accumulated Sand-belts along the Oasis Fringe in Hexi of Gansu

    Chang Zhaofeng;Zhang Jianhui;Wang Qiangqiang;Zhu Shujuan;Zhang Dabiao;Fan Baoli;Tang Jinnian;Liu Shizeng;

    The accumulated sand-belts have formed along the oasis fringe,especially at the upwind areas of the desert area in Gansu Hexi of China during the process of desert control in recent 60 years. The accumulated sand-belt is a byproduct of desertification combating through afforestation and barriers-setting. This paper analyzed the data( including wind velocity / direction) of 21 sites on the accumulated sand-belt to evaluate its stability and ecological effects. The results showed that the accumulated sand-belt is in a stable state. It plays a significant role in weakening wind and this effect is enhanced with the increase of wind velocity. The height of accumulated sand-belt is an important factor characterizing its windproof function. When the wind velocity is higher than 2 m / s,the windproof area in the downwind places is 20 times greater than the height of the accumulated sand-belt. When the wind velocity is higher than 8 m / s,the wind velocity on the top of the accumulated sand-belt is less than that in the upwind open areas. When the air flow reaches the windward slope,its energy is released and reduced by uplifting along the slope and diversion towards the two wings. Wind deflector reduces the velocity of the prevailing wind on the windward slope.

    Liang Zhengqi;Yao Junjie;Xiong Hualong;An Miao;Huang Shihong;

    The growth and development of larvae and juveniles was morphologically investigated in Carassius auratus gibelio. The results showed that it took 52 h from fertilization to hatching at 22- 25 ℃. The newly hatched larvae had transparent body,with the head right near the yolk sac; the yolk sac accounted for 2 /3of larval volume,which was exhausted in the four-day-old larvae that started the exogenous nutrient period. The larvae were found to develop into juveniles from a few scales on the 20 thday after hatching to whole scales,fingerling,on the 28 thday after hatching. The relationship between total length( TL) and age in days( D)was described as: TL = 0. 001 2D3- 0. 038 8D2+ 1. 043 2D + 3. 945 8( r2= 0. 998). The relationship between body length( L) and body weight( W) of larvae and juveniles was expressed as: m = 1E- 05L3. 376 9( r2= 0. 982 7). The formula between body length and body height during the development of the fish was described as: H = 0. 000 1L3- 0. 028 4L2+ 1. 281 6L- 7. 250 5( r2= 0. 988 6). The findings provided the theoretical instruction for practical production of C. auratus gibelio.

    Hyalomma anatolicum,Hyalomma asiaticum and Hyalomma detritum are wide-spread tick vectors in China. They could transmit a great variety of serious animal and human pathogens,which are great threats to the health of human beings and the safety of stockbreeding. Most of them are distributed in Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia,and they share similar morphologies. This study is to establish a method for identifying H. anatolicum,H. asiaticum and H. detritum with molecular markers and to revealing the phylogenetic relationship of these ticks. Ticks were collected from domestic animals in Xinjiang and Inner Mongolia autonomous regions and classified by morphological characters. 16 S rRNA and mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase subunit I gene( COI) of ticks were amplified by PCR and subsequently sequenced. Phylogenetic trees were constructed by MEGA 5. 0 and Mrbayes 3. 2. On the 16 S rRNA-based phylogenetic tree,H. anatolicum and H. aisaticum were clustered together with their respective classes. H. detritum was clustered with their respective class and the H. anatolicum,H. asiaticum formed distinct branches on the phylogenetic trees based on the COI. The method based on morphology that combined with molecular 16 S rRNA and COI seemed a simple and accurate method for species identification of H. anatolicum,H. asiaticum and H. detritum.

    This study was to investigate the effects of transport,storage temperature and time on parthenogenetical developmental competence of sheep oocyte. The ovaries were collected and randomly immersed in physiological saline at( 10- 15) ℃,( 20- 25) ℃ and( 30- 35) ℃ and transported to the laboratory for culture.They were divided into three groups randomly in an optimized transport temperature,kept in physiological saline at 4 ℃,( 14- 18) ℃ and( 25- 30) ℃ respectively; 15- 17 h later,the ovaries were cutured for the maturation and parthenogenetic activation of oocytes. The results showed that the optimal transport temperature of ovaries was 20- 25 ℃,when the maturation rate and blastocysts rate reached 67. 44% and 35. 93% respectively. Incubating sheep ovaries at( 14- 18) ℃for( 15- 17) h did not reduce the maturation rate( 61. 81%) and blastocysts rate( 29. 03%) of oocyte significantly. However,incubating sheep ovaries at 4 ℃or( 25- 30) ℃ significantly reduced the maturation rate( 41. 90%,18. 40%) and cleavage rate( 9. 09%,13. 04%),and the ovaries could not develop into blastocysts at these two temperature ranges. It can be concluded that the optimal transport temperature of the sheep ovaries is 20- 25 ℃,and incubation at 14- 18 ℃overnight in vivo does not affect the developmental competence of oocytes.

  • Research Advances in Hydrodynamics of Artificial Reef

    Fan Jiangtao;Chen Pimao;Feng Xue;Chen Guobao;

    With further recession and deterioration of offshore fishery resources and increasing living demands,construction of marine ranching becomes a focal point to improve marine biological resources and environment,while artificial reef is one of the important parts for marine ranching construction. The artificial reef technology develops slowly in China compared with developed countries,such as the United States and Japan,and there are still many issues urgently to be solved.When an artificial reef is released in water,there are various kinds of forces,and its forces and flow field-effect are closely related to surrounding conditions and its own performance. Currently,there are no mature conclusions on research of hydrodynamics of artificial reef. According to review of hydrodynamics of artificial reefs,we hope to give a full understanding on hydrodynamics performance of artificial reefs,and provide reference and theoretical basis for further research on design and structure of artificial reef in China.
