基于三种分子标记的外伶仃岛石珊瑚系统进化关系研究

以广东省珠海市外伶仃岛地区常见的4属5种石珊瑚为研究对象,对线粒体COI、16S rRNA和ITS三种基因片段数据进行分析,并计算了种间遗传距离。序列分析结果表明5种石珊瑚的COI、16S rRNA基因片段碱基AT含量大于GC含量,而ITS序列碱基AT含量小于GC含量;5种石珊瑚种间的三种基因平均遗传距离分别为0.043、0.134和0.763,所得遗传距离结果存在一定差异。将三种基因串联起来并利用邻位连接法(NJ)、最大似然法(ML)和最小进化法(ME)分别构建了分子系统树。在系统发育树中,科一级的系统进化关系与形态学分类一致,但蜂巢珊瑚科内的分子系统分类结果与形态学分类阐述的遗传进化关系略有差别,说明石珊瑚传统分类可能受骨骼可塑性的影响。研究结果为外伶仃岛石珊瑚的亲缘关系研究提供相关基础数据,并为该地区石珊瑚资源保护奠定理论基础。     

基于线粒体DNA部分片段探讨石鲽与星突江鲽的亲缘关系

比较分析了石鲽和星突江鲽线粒体基因组COI、Cytb基因以及D-loop片段总长度为1175 bp的核苷酸序列,探讨了石鲽与星突江鲽的亲缘关系。2种间共检测到95处核苷酸替代,蛋白质编码基因上的核苷酸替代主要是第三密码子位点上的同义替换。核苷酸组成分析结果表明:3个目的片段的鸟嘌呤(G)含量普遍较低,在2个蛋白质编码基因第三密码子位点上表现得尤为明显。线粒体COI、Cytb基因和D-loop片段序列分析显示石鲽与星突江鲽间平均遗传距离分别为0.043、0.062和0.153,属于属内种间差异水平。2种鲽鱼在线粒体基因组不同片段上存在明显的遗传分化,核苷酸替代速率由大到小依次为D-loopCytbCOI。贝叶斯法、邻近距离法和最大简约法构建的系统发育树一致,皆显示石鲽与星突江鲽遗传关系很近。基于Cytb基因片段序列的分析结果表明:石鲽与星突江鲽的分歧时间约为185万年,分化事件发生于更新世中期(Middle Pleistocene)。     

基于线粒体CO1基因的DNA条形码在石首鱼科(Sciaenidae)鱼类系统分类中的应用

采用CO1基因特异扩增测序及与GenBank已有序列联配分析的方法,进行了石首鱼科19属30种鱼类75个CO1基因片段的序列比较和系统进化研究,结果表明,石首鱼科鱼类该片段的平均GC含量为48.3%,其中第2密码子位点含量最高(51%-58.4%,平均56.6%),第1密码子变化范围最大(27.6%-54.1%,平均44.9%),第3密码子差别较小(41.6%-43.6%,平均42.7%)。依据Kimura-2-parameter模型,30种石首鱼科鱼类种内遗传距离平均值为0.006,种间为0.210,种间遗传距离是种内的35倍;在分子系统树上,28个种(93.3%)可形成单系,18个属(94.7%)可聚为独立的分支;与形态学分类不同的是,由黑鳃梅童鱼(Collichthys lucidus)与棘头梅童鱼(C.niveatus)的遗传距离(0.004)推断二者遗传变异尚未达到种的分化水平,灰鳍彭纳石首鱼(Pennahia anea)与白姑鱼(Argyrosomus argentatus)的形态学特征相似性和条形码序列同源性都提示二者可能为同种异名,而红牙(Otolithes ruber)印度洋和南海两个地理群体间的遗传分化已经达到种的水平。本研究证明线粒体CO1基因可作为DNA条形码对石首鱼科鱼类进行有效的物种鉴定,亦可用于探讨石首鱼科的属、种分类单元系统发育问题。

藤壶科DNA 分类研究

围胸总目藤壶科的分类系统经历了二亚科系统(小藤壶亚科 Chthamalinae,藤壶亚科 Balaninae)、三亚科系统[藤壶亚科(Balaninae),巨藤壶亚科(Megabalaninae),凹藤壶亚科(Concavinae)],现在采用的是四亚科系统[藤壶亚科(Balaniae)、纹藤壶亚科(Amphibalanus)、巨藤壶亚科(Megabalaninae)和凹藤壶亚科(Concavinae)],但各亚科之间的系统演化关系尚未进行过分子系统学方面的研究.许多藤壶科物种存在趋同进化的趋势,致使传统的形态分类存在困难,不能正确地进行鉴别.本文测定了藤壶科3个亚科里个代表种的线粒体 COI,16S 和12S 基因的部分序列,结合 GenBank 中藤壶科其他物种的12S,28S和18S等基因序列,比较了不同基因片段作为鉴别藤壶科物种的条形码的可行性和有效性,并联合16S和12S序列初步分析了藤壶科各亚科之间的一些亲缘关系.研究结果表明:COI基因的种间和种内遗传距离有明显的间隔区, COI最小种间距离为0.122,远大于最大种内距离0.023,而16S基因的种间与种内距离存在覆盖,最小种间距离为0.018,小于最大种内距离0.023,因此表明,线粒体基因 COI能更准确地鉴定藤壶科种间以及种内关系,并得出阈值为种内差异小于0.023,种间差异大于0.1.ML和BI系统发育分析结果基本一致,支持4亚科的分类系统;巨藤壶亚科形成明显单系群,支持率很高,而两种纹藤壶和管藤壶聚成一支,形成一个单系,本结果支持Newman & Ross的假说,即纹藤壶属和管藤壶属应合并.

海上大直径钢管桩打桩过程中桩周土强度弱化研究

海上大直径钢管桩打桩过程中,桩周土体受到强烈扰动而发生强度弱化,掌握桩周土体强度弱化规律对于准确预测打桩过程、保证工程安全具有重要意义。为研究土体强度弱化规律,开展了环剪试验模拟打桩对桩周土体的扰动,测试土体强度随剪切速率的变化规律,建立了描述土体强度弱化规律的拟合公式,引入到打桩分析软件中。研究结果表明：土体的强度折减程度不仅与土体本身的性质有关还受到土体的埋深和剪切速率的影响,埋深越深土体强度折减程度越低,剪切速率越高土体强度折减越高,在打桩分析中可采用这里推荐的线性折减方法来模拟不同深度处土体强度的折减规律。     

Phylogenetic diversity and phenotypic characterization of cultivable bacterioplankton isolated from polar oceans

A set of 27 marine planktonic bacteria isolated from the polar regions was characterized by 16S rDNA sequencing and physiological and biochemical testing. More than half of these bacteria were positive for caseinase, gelatinase and 13-glucosidase, and could utilize glucose, maltose or malic acid as carbon source for cell growth. Twelve isolates expressed nitrate reduction activities. Except for one antarctic isolate BSwlO175 belonging to Actinobacteria phylum, these isolates were classified as γ-Proteobacteria, suggesting that γ-Proteobacteria dominated in cultivable marine bacterioplankton at both poles. Genus Pseudoalteromonas was the predominant group in the Chukchi Sea and the Bering Sea, and genus ShewaneUa dominated in cultivable bacterioplankton in the Prydz Bay. With sequence similarities above 97%, genus Psychrobacter was found at both poles. These 27 isolates were psychrotolerant, and significant 16S rDNA sequence similarities were found not only between arctic and antarctic marine bacteria （ 〉 99% ）, but also between polar marine bacteria and bacteria from other aquatic environments （ ≥ 98.8% ）, including temperate ocean, deep sea, pond and lake, suggesting that in the polar oceans less temperature-sensitive bacteria may be cosmopolitan and have a bipolar, even global, distribution at the species level.     

Estimation of Sediment Properties during Benthic Impact Experiments

Sediment properties, such as water content and density, have been used to estimate the dry and wet weights, as well as the volume of sediment recovered and discharged, during benthic impact experiments conducted in the Pacific and Indian Oceans. The estimates show that the weights of dry (355-1332 t) and wet sediment (1651-4888 t) recovered during the experiments, are not only a function of the total duration and distance covered during the experiment, but also depend on water content and density of the sediment. Estimation of dry sediment and its volumetric ratio in the discharge, are key parameters for calculating the discharged volume. The estimated volume of wet sediment recovered (1427-4049 m 3 ) as well as discharged (2693-6951 m 3 ) during the experiments, provide important inputs to evaluate the sediment resettlement and migration. Using these estimates, the average depth of excavation on the seafloor, can also been calculated. However, the stages of sediment recovery and discharge are expressed differently in some of the experiments. In order to standardize these, different stages have been identified, and definitions of certain terms have been suggested, for use in the future. The methods of calculating different properties, as well as weight and volume of discharged sediment are described in the paper for use in other applications concerning deep-sea discharges.     

A Tidal Flow Model for the Gulf of Kachchh, India

A vertically integrated model has been used to study the tidal circulation and currents in the Gulf of Kachchh along the west coast of India. The model is fully nonlinear and uses a semiexplicit finite difference scheme to solve the basic hydrodynamic equations on a staggered grid. The model is forced by prescribing the tides along the open boundary of the model domain. The flow is simulated both with and without the presence of the proposed tidal barrage across the Hansthal Creek in the Gulf of Kachchh. The results show a considerable change in the behavior of the tidal flow in the presence of the barrage.

Biogeochemistry of Mangrove Soil Organic Matter: a Comparison BetweenRhizophoraandAvicenniaSoils in South-eastern Brazil

Soil core samples fromRhizophora mangleL. andAvicennia schauerianaStapf & Leech forests from south-eastern Brazil were analysed for their total organic matter content and their sugars, amino acid and amino sugars composition. Organic carbon and nitrogen contents were higher inAvicenniathan inRhizophorasoils. The contribution of sugars and amino acids to the total organic carbon pool was constant with depth inRhizophorasoils whereas inAvicenniasoils it increased. Spectral distribution of sugars and amino acids showed a dominance of Ca-affine monomers, particularly acidic amino acids, and the sugar arabinose. Biogeochemical indicators derived from ratios of individual sugar and amino acid monomers confirm previous studies which showed that organic matter in both soils is mainly of mangrove origin. The results further suggest accumulation of organic matter inRhizophorasoils and a continuing degradation of organic matter inAvicenniasoils. The latter may thus release more nutrients to adjacent ecosystems thanRhizophorasoils.     

A review of orange roughy Hoplostethus atlanticus fisheries,estimation methods,biology and stock structure

Orange roughy Hoplostethus atlanticus are unusual fish. They form dense aggregations that have fuelled lucrative fisheries at great depths (600–1 400 m), especially off Namibia, New Zealand and Australia. They are thought to be very long-lived (>100 years, maturity at 22 – 40 years), and to have exceptionally low natural mortality (M = 0.045–0.064 year^?1) and slow growth rates (K = 0.055–0.070 year^?1). In addition, they spawn large eggs and have low fecundity. These factors combine to make orange roughy highly susceptible to overfishing; most stocks are below 30% of pristine levels. Assessments are obtained from indices of catch rate and trawl, acoustic and egg surveys. Acoustic estimates are the most direct, but are confounded by the species' low target strength (?50 to ?53 dB)–attributable to the wax-filled swim bladder. Extracellular wax esters are stored in abundance and comprise mostly mono-unsaturated fatty acids, with low concentrations of the ω-3 fatty acid family. This unusual composition (resultant from the species' diet) ensures neutral buoyancy. Stock separation has been inferred mainly from biological studies, but genetic studies have also found differences among stocks within New Zealand and Australia. Deep-water habitat may be damaged by trawling operations and may take many years to recover, so in some quarters there is a call for a portion of suitable habitat to be set aside for preservation. Although Namibian orange roughy are shallower, smaller and younger than those in other stocks, the Namibian fishery sustained high catches for only a few years before quotas were reduced, from 12 000 to 1 875 tons. Three management lessons are suggested for developing orange roughy fisheries based on the Namibian experience: (1) imposition of catch limits during exploratory fishing; (2) starting the acoustic surveys earlier in the fishery, if possible; (3) greater reliance on trends in catch rate until a survey series has been established.
