海湾扇贝4次引种后代的表型特征和遗传分化

分析了不同时期引入到我国的4个繁育历史清晰、未发生种质混杂的海湾扇贝养殖群体成体的壳形态指标和群体遗传结构。壳表型参数分析表明,海湾扇贝北部亚种(Northernbay scallop,Argopecten irradians irradians)的浙江养殖群体(ZJ)、加拿大新布朗斯威克群体(NB)、马萨诸塞-弗吉尼亚混合群体(M-V)及海湾扇贝南部亚种(Southern bay scallop,Arg-opecten irradians concentricus)的北卡罗来那群体(NC)等不同群体间在壳形态方面存在显著差异南部亚种的NC群体壳高与壳长基本相等[壳高与壳长的比值(H/L)达0.99,壳型宽壳宽和壳长的比值(W/L)达到0.59];而北部亚种3个群体的壳长均大于壳高,其中ZJ和NB群体的壳形态尤其偏长,其H/L分别是0.92和0.90,NB群体的壳宽显著小于其他群体,W/L仅为0.36。RAPD分析结果表明,ZJ、NB、M-V、NC群体的多态位点比例分别为31.82%、29.55%、28.79%和31.82%,平均杂合度分别为0.1078、0.1134、0.0966和0.1197,表明在我国独立繁育了19代的ZJ养殖群体仍然保持了与其他群体相近的遗传多样性水平。4个群体间的遗传分化系数(Gst)为0.1892,表明其中18.92%的变异来自不同群体间的遗传差异,说明4个群体在遗传上存在着较大的分化。从遗传距离分析,ZJ与NB较近,两者间的遗传距离为0.0319,而两者与M-V间的遗传距离相对较远,分别为0.0442和0.0524;NC与M-V间的遗传距离为0.0368。这些结果表明,从原产地引种到国外时间较早的ZJ、NB等2个群体与较晚引进我国的M-V群体之间的遗传距离已超过了M-V群体(北部亚种)与NC群体(南部亚种)之间的遗传距离,说明独立繁育了近20代后,ZJ群体和NB群体均已产生了较大的遗传分化,这种分化可能有利于海湾扇贝的品种培育。

Newly-generated Seismic Rupture Zone:Identification,Type Division and Seismogeological Significance

The results of geological research show that those phenomena such as surface geology,geomorphology,deep geophysical field,and time-space distribution of seismicities can be usedas the main seismogeological indicators to identify the newly-generated seismic rupture zone(NSRZ).According to their formation and evolution process,the NSRZs can be divided intothree types:pre-rupture-isolated,quasi-rupture-discontinuous and major-rupture-connected.In a pre-rupture-isolated NSRZ,the seismicity is dominated by medium-small earthquakes.In a quasi-rupture-discontinuous NSRZ,the frequency and intensity of strong earthquakesincrease and there may even be the largest earthquake to occur.A major-rupture-connectedNSRZ is the segment where rupture has entered the mature stage;in such a zone,theintensity and duration of seismic activity depend on the constitutive condition and regionalstress field in the zone.     

Simulation of structural phase transition in NaNO3 and CaCO3

 The order-disorder phase transitions in NaNO₃ and CaCO₃ are simulated by molecular dynamics. The simulations are based on the potentials calculated from the Gordon–Kim modified electron gas formalism extended to molecular ions. We successfully reproduced the transition temperature T _c and the abnormally large c axis thermal expansion observed in experiment. The phase transitions in NaNO₃ and CaCO₃ were found to be initiated by ±60 and ±180° reorientation of the NO₃ and CO₃ ions about the c axis. The orientations of NO₃ and CO₃ ions are continuous with six preferred calcite-type orientations above the phase-transition temperature. Received: 30 January 2001 / Accepted: 11 May 2001     

西伯利亚雅库特金伯利岩中四颗古老锆石巨晶的微量元素和Hf同位素特征——对区分金伯利岩中锆石巨晶的启示

金伯利岩中的锆石按照颗粒大小可以分为细粒锆石（一般小于200μm）和巨晶锆石（一般大于500μm）。前人的研究结果显示在金伯利岩中粒径较大的巨晶锆石的U-Pb体系在高温的地幔中一直保持着开放状态,直到寄主金伯利岩浆的喷发才使地幔锆石的U-Pb体系封闭,因此这些巨晶锆石是确定金伯利岩年龄的重要矿物之一。然而,近年来的研究表明,金伯利岩中还存在一些时代远老于金伯利岩年龄的锆石,也具有较大的粒径（以下称古老锆石巨晶）。它们的存在无疑影响了利用锆石U-Pb方法确定金伯利岩年龄的准确性。本文以西伯利亚雅库特（Yakutia）金伯利岩省中的四颗古老锆石巨晶为研究对象,通过形态学、年代学、微量元素和Hf同位素组成,讨论古老锆石巨晶的来源。同时,我们统计和对比了全球多个金伯利岩中能够确定金伯利岩年龄的锆石和古老锆石巨晶的形态学、U、Th含量和微量元素组成、Hf-O同位素等特征。研究结果显示,金伯利岩中的古老锆石巨晶的t_DM年龄和O同位素组成与可以用来确定金伯利岩年龄的锆石巨晶具有明显的差别。这些手段在未来的研究中可以用来区分可确定金伯利岩年龄的锆石巨晶和古老的锆石巨晶。

     

Aliphatic alkanes and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in atmospheric PM10 aerosols from Baoji, China: Implications for coal burning

Normal alkanes and PAHs in atmospheric PM₁₀ aerosols collected during 2008 winter and spring in Baoji, a mid-scale inland city of China, were determined on a molecular level. Concentrations of n-alkanes ranged from 232 to 3583 ng/m³ with an average of 1733 ng/m³ in winter and from 124 to 1160 ng/m³ with an average of 449 ng/m³ in spring, while PAHs in the PM₁₀ samples were 594 ± 405 and 128 ± 82 ng/m³ in the two seasons. Molecular compositions showed that CPI (odd/even) values of n-alkanes were close to unity for all the samples especially in winter, and diagnostic ratios of PAHs (e.g., Phe/(Phe + Ant), CPAH/ΣPAHs and IcdP/(IcdP + BghiP)) were found similar to those in coal burning smoke with a strong linear relationship (R² ≥ 0.85) between PAHs and fossil fuel derived n-alkanes, demonstrating that coal burning is the main source of n-alkanes and PAHs in the city, especially in winter due to house heating. Concentrations of the determined compounds in Baoji are much higher than those in Chinese mega-cities, suggesting that air pollution in small cities in the country is more serious and need more attention.

GM trees on trial in a field: Reductionism, risks and intractable biological objects

Identification of GM plants with their internal molecular-genetic qualities serves transformation of living organisms into identifiable commodities and objects of regulation. From molecular reductionist assumptions it also follows that scientific research is to be based on experiments that allow analysis of genetic influence in isolation. In this paper, I analyse molecular reductionism ‘in action’ by means of an ethnographic case study, focusing on the practices and transformations through which a field trial of transgenic trees created understanding of the risks or risklessness of the trees. The results show how the mobilisation of the field trial design, choosing of key analytical scales and formation of the research team stabilised the paths that experimentation was to follow. The scientists took the emerging inconsistencies and surprises calmly, indicating that unexpected events are an essential part of a scientific process. However, surprises could matter only in relation to the testing arrangements. Therefore, what could become visible and what could make a difference for the constitution of risk/risklessness were the fluctuations that the particular analytical assemblages defined as significant from the outset. Meanwhile, it was impossible to treat the trees and the field ecosystem as mutually constitutive. Nevertheless, there is no reason to think of knowledge production concerning transgenic organisms in deterministic terms. First, scientists are bound to be complexly engaged with the ecosystems that they are supposed to sort out. Second, consideration of the public lessons of experiments may elicit problems and limitations of molecular reductionism.

基于地物光谱的赤潮优势种识别研究

利用2001年获取的不同优势种赤潮水体的现场光谱数据，处理得到了不同优势种赤潮水体的遥感反射率光谱曲线；在此基础上，发展了基于光谱角度制图法(Spectral Angle Mapping，SAM)和互相关光谱匹配法(Cross Correlogram Spectral Mapping，CCSM)的赤潮优势种识别算法。数据实验结果表明，上述两种方法对于实现基于光谱数据的赤潮优势种识别是基本有效的，且CCSM方法的识别结果略优于SAM方法。进一步提高上述方法的适用性在于大量获取不同优势种赤潮的光谱数据并建立赤潮光谱数据库。
