空气CO2体积分数升高对稻麦根系活力及其VA菌根侵染率的影响

利用无锡市安镇的FACE研究平台，在施常规氮量和低氮量的条件下，研究CO2体积分数升高对稻麦轮作系统水稻和小麦根系活力及其VA菌根侵染率的影响。结果表明，在常氮和低氮条件下，FACE处理对小麦和水稻根系活力都有促进作用，并使小麦VA菌根侵染率在拔节期和孕穗期有增加趋势，小麦根系活力和VA菌根侵染率有正相关关系。施N量不足对作物根系生长和活力有一定影响，可以被CO2体积分数升高的影响所补偿。     

Workaholism and daily recovery: A day reconstruction study of leisure activities

This study among 85 individuals used a day reconstruction approach to examine whether workaholism moderates the relationship between daily activities during non‐work time and daily well‐being in the evening (evening happiness, momentary vigor before bedtime, and momentary recovery before bedtime). Specifically, it was hypothesized that daily work‐related activities during the evening have a stronger negative relationship with daily well‐being for employees high (versus low) in workaholism and that daily physical and social activities have a stronger positive relationship with well‐being for employees high (versus low) in workaholism. The results of multilevel analyses largely supported the hypotheses for daily physical and work‐related activities but not for social activities during non‐work time. These findings imply that organizations should not encourage their employees and particularly those who score high on workaholism to work during non‐work time and instead promote physical exercise.

Male signaling behavior and sexual selection in a wolf spider (Araneae: Lycosidae): a test for dual functions

Male signaling behaviors are often studied in a single context but may serve multiple functions (e.g., in male–male competition and female mate choice). We examined the issue of dual function male signals in a wolf spider species Schizocosa ocreata (Hentz) that displays the same species-specific signaling behaviors in both male–male and male–female contexts. These signaling behaviors have been described as either aggression or courtship according to the context observed. We tested the possibility of dual functions by comparing the relationship between behaviors and outcome of male–male contests (winner/loser) and male–female mating encounters (mating success). Frequency, rate, and mean duration of signaling behaviors did not vary with outcome of male–male contests, which appears instead to be based upon relative size and body mass. Winners of contests had significantly greater body mass than losers, and greater mass relative to opponents was significantly associated with probability of winning. Overall, signaling rates were much higher in male–female interactions than in male–male contests and were higher for males that successfully mated than for those that did not mate. Mean duration of some male displays was also greater for males that successfully mated. However, male size was not associated with probability of mating. Taken together, results suggest an intersexual selection context for the current function of male signals in these wolf spiders and that increased display vigor is associated with male mating success.     

铀胁迫对5种牧草种子萌发的影响

为进一步探究放射性重金属铀污染环境对植物种子萌芽及生长所产生的迫害,根据我国铀矿冶废水中铀的质量浓度(5 mg/L)选择不同质量浓度(0、1 mg/L、5 mg/L、10 mg/L、15 mg/L、20 mg/L)的铀溶液进行试验,用以胁迫5种1年生牧草(三叶草、苜蓿草、黑麦草、高丹草和苏丹草)种子,同时观察记录各自的萌发状况(发芽数和第7 d幼苗生长长度),计算其发芽率、发芽势、发芽指数(GI)、活力指数(VI)及耐性指数,并与对照组进行量化指标比较。最后比较各牧草种子所受到的危害并做出评价。结果表明:对于不同程度的铀污染,多数植物表现为低质量浓度促进其种子萌发,高质量浓度则严重抑制甚至致死。对于三叶草、苜蓿草和黑麦草种子,低质量浓度(1 mg/L)铀溶液促进种子的萌发,质量浓度升高则为抑制,其中黑麦草表现稍异常,质量浓度为5 mg/L时对种子萌发有促进作用,使最终发芽率较对照提升14%;对于高丹草,低质量浓度(5 mg/L)时促进种子萌发,而在质量浓度稍低于或超过5 mg/L时表现出明显的抑制现象,各指标低于对照13%左右;苏丹草则仅呈现抑制现象,铀质量浓度为5mg/L时抑制现象稍轻,最终发芽率较对照组仅降4%,小于或大于5mg/L时均受抑制,且质量浓度越高抑制现象越明显,最终发芽率最高仅28%。     

荧蒽对大豆种子发芽的影响

针对国内外有关荧蒽(FLT)对种子萌发影响研究极少的现状,本文设置5个质量浓度(2,5,15,25,50 mg·L-1)的染毒组、1个空白对照组(0 mg·L-1)和1个助溶剂对照组(丙酮体积分数为1%),以大豆种子发芽率、发芽势、发芽指数、活力指数和幼苗长度为测量指标,探索性地研究了FLT对大豆种子萌发的毒性效应。结果表明:在浓度小于15 mg·L-1的FLT胁迫下,大豆发芽率与对照相比无显著差异,大于等于15 mg·L-1的FLT胁迫则显著抑制了发芽率(p0.05)。发芽势、发芽指数、活力指数则对FLT的胁迫作用更加敏感,当FLT浓度大于等于5 mg·L-1时呈显著降低(p0.05)。FLT对幼苗长度起抑制作用,且随浓度越高和处理时间增长,抑制作用逐渐增强。     

处理生活污水湿地植物的筛选与净化潜力评价

为了建立一套科学的湿地植物筛选与净化潜力评价体系,以17种湿地植物为材料,在综合应用原有各种湿地植物筛选与评价指标的基础上,增加植物逆境酶和基质酶,对所有指标进行聚类分析.结果表明,17种植物的根系数量、长度、活力、叶片过氧化物酶活性、生长量、氮磷平均浓度、氮磷的积累能力存在一定的差异,根系附近基质脲酶活性与磷酸酶活性也存在一定的差异.根据净化潜力的综合评价体系,可以把17种植物聚类为3大类,第1大类净化潜力较强,包括美人蕉、芦苇、风车草、水葱、再力花、千屈菜、花叶美人蕉;第2大类净化潜力中等,包括菖蒲、花叶芦竹、香蒲、梭鱼草;第3大类净化潜力较弱,包括野芋、鸢尾、灯心草、葱兰、泽泻、花菖蒲.     

The effect of change in supervisor support and job control on change in vigor: Differential relationships for immigrant and native employees in Israel

Building on the premises of the conservation of resources theory, the aim of this study was to investigate long‐term effects of job resources on vigor among native and immigrant employees in Israel. More specifically, we investigated the effects of baseline and change in job control and supervisor support on change in vigor levels, as well as the degree to which these effects differ among educated native and immigrant employees in Israel. We surveyed 235 white‐collar Eastern European and Russian immigrants and 235 white‐collar native Israelis matched on occupational and demographic characteristics at two points of measurement with a 30‐month time lag. Latent change score modeling revealed that among both immigrants and natives, change in job control was related to change in vigor. Multiple group analyses further revealed that among immigrant employees only, baseline levels of supervisor support were associated with change in vigor. In conclusion, these findings suggest that the utilization of resources as a means of acquiring new resources may be influenced by immigrant background. Managerial implications are discussed.

Work‐related flow and energy at work and at home: A study on the role of daily recovery

In this diary study, we aimed to examine the moderating effects of the following: (i) recovery efforts at work and (ii) detachment from work on the relationship between work‐related flow and energy after work. Specifically, we hypothesized that flow would be beneficial for energy after work when employees failed (versus managed) to recover during work breaks. Additionally, we predicted that when employees experience flow at work, they would be more vigorous (and less exhausted) at the end of the day when they detached from work in the evening compared with days when they failed to detach. The study tracked 83 participants who completed daily surveys over four consecutive days. Results of multilevel analyses indicated that some characteristics of flow, such as absorption and enjoyment, were significantly associated with energy after work. Recovery at work and detachment from work moderated the relationship between flow (specifically the enjoyment component) and after‐work energy. Copyright © 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
