岩溶坡地土壤空间异质性的表述与调查方法——以贵州清镇市王家寨坡地为例

讨论了岩溶坡地土壤空间异质性的表述与调查方法,选取了地表石质土地面积比例及空间分布和土壤厚度及空间分布两个方面作为土壤空间异质性的表述内容,引入了地块破碎度、离散度、变异函数等指标;以王家寨为例,研究发现岩溶坡地土石比、破碎度、离散度、土壤厚度等指标从坡顶到坡下逐渐增大;石质地块破碎度在微观地块上表现为值越大地块越完整,是否与研究尺度有关还需要进一步论证;土壤厚度变异系数基本在1~1.5之间,与土壤厚度变程和土壤平均厚度有关;最后用土壤侵蚀的原理解释了岩溶坡地土壤空间异质性。     

In situ studies on growth,oxidative stress responses,and gene expression of juvenile bighead carp (Hypophthalmichthys nobilis) to eutrophic lake water dominated by cyanobacterial blooms

Cyanobacterial blooms have received increasing attention as a public biohazard for human and animal health. To assess the effect of cyanobacteria-dominant lake water on juvenile fish, we measured the responses of specific growth rate, condition factor, body weight and body length, oxidative stress, and related gene expression of juvenile bighead carp Hypophthalmichthys nobilis exposed to in situ eutrophic lake (Chl a was around 7.0 μg L⁻¹). Results showed in situ cyanobacteria-dominant lake water had no effect on the growth performance, but significantly elevated the contents of malondialdehyde, the expression of heat shock protein 70, and the activity of superoxide dismutase, indicating that oxidative stress occurred. Meanwhile in situ lake water significantly decreased the expression of catalase and glutathione S-transferase genes. We conclude that in situ cyanobacteria-dominated lake water was harmful to juvenile bighead carp based on the oxidative stress and changes in the related gene expression levels.     

Mechanisms of photosynthetic inactivation on growth suppression of Microcystis aeruginosa under UV-C stress

This study aims to investigate the effects of UV-C irradiation on photosynthetic processes of Microcystis aeruginosa to unravel the mechanism(s) involved in how and in what ways UV-C mediates growth suppression and cellular recovery. Changes in the concentration of photosynthetic pigments, photochemical efficiency, PS II core protein (D1) content, and the coding genes expressions were measured. The results indicate that UV-C doses at 20–200 mJ cm⁻² lead to rapid reduction in gene expression of both psbA (for D1) and cpc (for phycocyanin), but the suppression was short term and recoverable within 3 d of post-UV incubation. Conversely, UV-C doses at ?50 mJ cm⁻² could induce marked decline in photochemical efficiency (represented by the optimal PS II quantum yield, F_V/F_M, and the effective PS II quantum yield, Y) as well as decreases in D1 content and water soluble pigments (phycoerythrins, phycocyanins, allophycocyanins) in M. aeruginosa during the post UV-C incubation period. The results suggest that interruption of both the light energy harvesting apparatus (especially the water soluble pigments) and the photochemical process mainly accounted for the growth suppression effect in UV-C irradiated M. aeruginosa.

苏云金芽胞杆菌YBT-1520中SigL及其增强子结合蛋白的结构与功能分析

为揭示SigL及其增强子结合蛋白(EBPs)在苏云金芽胞杆菌(Bt)中的调控功能,在全基因组测序的基础上,采用生物信息学方法,对YBT-1520菌株的SigL及其EBPs的结构和功能进行深入分析.结果表明,YBT-1520基因组中存在1个SigL和6个EBPs,而且EBPs在结构上具有丰富的多样性,包含了EBPs的所有可能的结构域组织类型.SigL所调控的基因涉及11个假定的COG代谢途径,其中包括能量代谢、氨基酸代谢、翻译与细胞周期等.根据EBPs在基因组的位置推测,YBT-1520的EBPs参与γ-氨基丁酸代谢途径、精氨酸代谢途径、支链脂肪酸降解途径、多糖分解代谢等代谢途径的调控.本研究将为揭示Bt杀虫晶体蛋白大量表达的调控机制提供新的思路.
