人类无精症相关新基因ZNF313启动子的初步分析

采用PCR方法扩增了ZNF313基因的启动子序列,构建了含人ZNF313基因启动子不同片断的荧光素酶报告基因表达体系.以pRLTK为内参照质粒,瞬时转染HEK293T细胞,48h后收集细胞,测定荧光素酶的相对表达活性.结果发现,在ZNF313基因的启动子区域构建了4种荧光素酶报告基因表达体系,即pGL3215(-215bp～ 38bp)、pGL3160(-160bp～ 38bp)、pGL3133(-133bp～ 128bp)和pGL38(-8bp～ 128bp).其中pGL3215表达载体的荧光素酶相对表达活性最高;pGL3160和pGL3133表达载体的荧光素酶相对表达活性几乎相同,且是pGL3215的75%;而pGL38的荧光素酶相对表达活性急剧下降,接近于零.这表明,-133bp～-8bp区域内含有人ZNF313基因转录所必需的启动子序列.生物信息学的分析表明,两个SP1、一个AP2和一个TAg是人ZNF313基因启动子所必需的.图4参19     

Macroalgal growth in nutrient-enriched estuaries: A biogeochemical and evolutionary perspective

Increased nutrient loading of a body of water leads to an increase in macroalgal growth. It is generally observed, however, that certain species thrive more than others, capitalising on the increased nutrient availability. These are usually small, fast-growing, ephemeral algae that often appear as nuisance blooms. This article discusses the correlation between nutrient increase and macroalgal bloom formation. From a historical perspective, the evolutionary history of nuisance macroalgae, and the habits available to them prior to anthropogenic influences on estuarine geochemistry are considered. The occurrence of macroalgal genera whose distribution is commonly related to estuaries with high nutrient loading is discussed, along with evidence suggesting that the ecophysiological traits of r-selected, ephemeral algae largely contribute to their ecological success and bloom-formation at nutrient-enriched sites.     

苹果茎沟病毒对梨树幼苗生长及过氧化物酶活性的影响

Based on growth level and peroxidase activity, a comparative study and paried-samples t test were made between vires-free Zaosu pear seedlings and the seedlings inoculated with apple stem grooving virus(ASGV). The results showed : ( 1 )virus-free Zaosu pear seedlings grew better than inoculated ones. Of the seedlings the height, diameter, branches and autumn braches differed statistically significantly; (2)the peroxidase activity of inoculated seedlings was higher than that of virus-free ones, and the peak of peroxidase activity occurred on about d 7 and d 24 after inoculation.

Variables influencing growth and morphology of colonies of cells from human amniotic fluid

Growth of cells from amniotic fluid was studied with respect to cell concentration in the inoculum, blood contamination of the fluid, fluid colour, fluid clarity, gestational age of the pregnancy, and growth factors. Dependent variables measured were colony formation, colony size, and colony morphology after 7, 11, and 14 days of culture. The following conclusions were established from these studies: small sample volumes are the most efficient for producing colonies; cells from very bloody or dark brown fluids have a slower rate of growth; growth of cells from cloudy (noncontaminated) fluids is better than growth of cells from clear fluids; the proportion of colonies that are epithelioid varies with gestational age; the stimulating effect of 100 ng/ml fibroblast growth factor on cells from amniotic fluid was confirmed.     

基于磷阈值的富营养化风险评价体系

选取北京市重要的地表水源密云水库作为实例研究,在识别影响富营养化发生的主要限制因子的基础上,采用外源营养盐输入对富营养化作用的流水藻类培养试验(AGP)方法,并结合数学方法拟合富营养化水体发生的阈值.研究表明,根据富营养化水体各水质指标之间的回归关系,确定出能够反映富营养化的水质指标阈值.运用水质模型模拟富营养化过程,进行基于阈值的富营养化风险评价,构建了富营养化风险评价方法体系,提供了一种基于阈值的水体富营养化风险评价的方法.     

氮磷限制对铜绿微囊藻生长和产毒的影响

采用分批培养的方式研究了铜绿微囊藻(Microcystis aeruginosa)在氮、磷单因子营养限制条件下的生长和产毒情况.结果表明,氮限制对铜绿微囊藻的生长和产毒都有明显的抑制作用,而磷限制对其生长和产毒没有明显的抑制作用.在氮限制条件下,铜绿微囊藻的生物量仅为控制组的30%～50%,产毒量也仅为控制组的10%～60%;并且氮限制会促进细胞分裂,缩短细胞的生长周期.这可能是因为氮是铜绿微囊藻生长和产毒所必需的元素,直接控制着铜绿微囊藻的生长和产毒;所以若培养基中的氮浓度比较低,会直接导致微囊藻的生物量较少和产毒量比较低.磷限制甚至磷被耗尽时对铜绿微囊藻的生长和产毒都影响不大,这可能与铜绿微囊藻体内储存的含磷颗粒物有关.实验结果表明,在本实验条件下,水体中氮限制对铜绿微囊藻的生长和产毒影响较大.     

中国农业用水与经济增长的Kuznets假说及验证

提出中国农业用水与经济增长的Kuznets假说,并对此进行了分析和验证。在对改革开放以来中国经济增长与农业用水的趋势进行直观分析后,采用了中国31个省市区1999～2005年人均农业用水量和经济增长相关指标的面板数据,通过计量模型检验农业用水库兹涅茨曲线在中国是否存在,定量分析了农业用水量变动与经济增长之间的规律。研究结果表明：农业用水量最初随着人均GDP和人均农林牧渔业增加值增长而增加,当达到某一个阈值点后,开始逐渐下降,基本上符合库兹涅茨曲线的特征。中国目前已处于农业用水库兹涅茨曲线的右半段,但农业用水量下降的速度较为缓慢。因此,在促进经济增长的同时,要注重利用管理和技术等手段来发展节水农业,这将有助于在农业产业内部提升用水效率,缩减农业用水量。〖     

铝合金表面铈转化膜的生长与耐蚀性

将6063铝合金试样用10g／LCe（NO3）3·6H2O处理1min-24h,采用增重实验、盐雾试验和全浸腐蚀试验研究了铈转化膜的生长和耐蚀性能。结果表明,在初期试样增重随成膜时间线性增加,15min后增重变缓,30min后波动下降。转化膜的耐蚀性能受膜厚和裂纹联合控制,成膜时间在30min内,随成膜时间增加,耐蚀能力增加;30min后由于膜层开裂渐成主导控制因素,随成膜时间增加耐蚀性下降。
