不同温度对中国对虾生长及能量收支的影响

研究了18～34℃6个不同恒温下中国对虾(Fenneropenaeus chinensis)的生长、饵料转化率及能量收支。结果表明,中国对虾的体重及能量特定生长率分别变动在1．22％～3．27％和1．33％～1．45％之间,在18～31℃温度范围内随温度升高而升高,34℃下则显著下降．对虾的摄食量及对饵料的消化率总体上随温度升高而升高,但在34℃下则有所降低;饵料重量转化率和能量转化率分别在28．99％～53．09％和15．70％～7．24％之间,总体上随温度升高而有所下降．根据拟合的多项式方程推算得到的中国对虾的最佳生长温度为29．7℃,生长能和呼吸能的变化主导着中国对虾的能量收支模式,随温度升高生长能占摄食能的比例逐渐降低,而呼吸能比例则逐渐升高。本研究表明,对虾在适宜温度下获得的较高生长率主要归因于较高的摄食量和食物消化率。     

南方鲇的日总代谢和特殊动力作用的能量消耗

采用封闭式呼吸仪,在15、20、25、30℃条件下测定了91尾南方鲇(Silurus meridionalisChen)幼鱼(8.49—151.0g)的日总代谢率。日总代谢率与静止代谢率之比随温度的升高而降低,随日粮水平的增加而上升,变幅为1.076—3.066倍。代谢率与生长率之间存在的线性关系表明,每增长1g体重,生长过程的代谢耗能量增加2288.2J。温度和体重对特殊动力作用(SDA)无明显的影响,SDA的耗能量占摄入能量的百分比相对恒定,为20.18％。     

马陆在森林生态系统物质转化中的功能研究

马陆是森林生态系统重要的分解者,在帽儿山林区,马陆摄食量随温度的升高而增加。据初步估算,马陆地对凋落物的分解量约占该地区年平均凋落物量的０．２１％。马陆对同一种、不同腐解程度的叶片摄食不同,对妆分解凋落物的摄食量大于对未分解凋落物的摄食量。在不同温度条件下,马陆的生态效率不同,其同化效率随温度升高而降低,而粪便率则随温度升高而增加。在不同林型下个体数量分布不均匀。通常、阔叶林＞针阔叶混交林＞针叶林。在土壤的垂直分布上,具有明显的表聚现象。马陆的个体数量季节变化明显,以夏末最多,冬末最少。

紫红笛鲷幼鱼对集群密度和投饵定额的摄食反应

研究了紫红笛鲷(Lutjanus argentimaculatus)幼鱼在不同集群密度和投饵定额下的摄食反应.实验设7个不同的集群组(1、2、3、4、8、12、16尾/组),每个集群组又分成7个不同的投饵定额组(18.4×10-227.6×10-2、36.8×10-2、46.0 × 10-2、55.2×10-2、64.4×10-2、73.6×10-2g/组),通过测定摄食量观测幼鱼的摄食反应.在定额投饵的情况下,紫红笛鲷每尾幼鱼的一次平均摄食量随群体密度的增大呈先增加、超过一定密度后下降的趋势.1尾组与其他组差异极显著(P＜0.01),其组平均一次摄食量最低.当集群密度不变时,紫红笛鲷幼鱼一次平均摄食量随投饵定额的增大而增加,然后减小.随着集群密度增大,不同密度群体的最大摄食量向投饵定额增加的方向移动;而随着投饵定额增加,不同定额组的最大摄食量相对集中在2～8尾的群体中.结果表明,集群密度、投饵定额以及两者的交互作用对紫红笛鲷幼鱼的一次摄食量有极显著影响,群居的互利性和竞争性作用效果明显.

DIPLOID-TRIPLOID MOSAICS AMONG UNISEXUAL HYBRIDS OF THE MINNOWS PHOXINUS EOS AND PHOXINUS NEOGAEUS

Diploid-triploid mosaics are rarely found in vertebrates, and until now they were known to be common in only two vertebrate species complexes. Here we report that diploid-triploid mosaics are widespread among unisexual hybrids of the minnows Phoxinus eos and Phoxinus neogaeus, a complex already known to contain diploid and triploid forms. Using chromosome counts and flow cytometry, we show that the mosaics occur throughout the known range of the unisexuals and are abundant in many of these natural populations. The mosaics are highly heterogeneous, showing individual variation in the ratio of diploid to triploid cells, and as a group they appear to form a continuum between the pure diploid and triploid forms. Tissue-graft analysis shows that the third genome present in the triploid cells of a mosaic is expressed, because grafts made from the mosaics show an incidence of rejection intermediate between that of the diploid (clonal) and triploid (nonclonal) biotypes.

THE ROLE OF PREDATION IN THE ECOLOGY OF THE RINGED SEAL IN BARROW STRAIT, NORTHWEST TERRITORIES, CANADA

Predation on ringed seals ( Phoca hispida ) was examined in Barrow Strait between March and May 1984 to 1986. Polar bears were the most important predator. Evidence of bear predation was observed at 18–30% of the ringed seal subnivean structures we located. Ten to 24% of predation attempts were successful, with pups making up 75% to 100% of the seals killed. Bears killed an average of 0.08 to 0.51 seals/km², which comprised 8 to 44% of the estimated annual pup production. Bears were successful on average in 11.3% of their attempts to kill pups hidden inside birth lairs. On southeast Baffin Island where snow was soft and pups were exposed, bears were successful in 33.5% of their attempts to kill a seal. Negative correlations were found between mean snow depth and predation by polar bears ( r = -0.896, P = 0.04, n = 5) in 1985, and between snow depth and the number of predation attempts ( r = -0.613, P = 0.02, n = 14) in 1986.     

THE NARWHAL, MONODON MONOCEROS, IN THE NORWEGIAN HIGH ARCTIC

Narwhals ( Monodon monoceros ) are known to frequent the waters of the Norwegian arctic archipelago of Svalbard. An attempt is made to summarize narwhal observations from the Svalbard area, and from this to deduce their distribution. Observations have been gathered from the literature, sealing vessel log books and official statistics. Interviews have also been conducted with residents of Svalbard. I con&de that narwhals are most frequently observed in the area off the north-west corner of Spitsbergen.     

CLONAL INHERITANCE OF A DIPLOID NUCLEAR GENOME BY A HYBRID FRESHWATER MINNOW (PHOXINUS EOS-NEOGAEUS,PISCES: CYPRINIDAE)

Hybrids between the minnows Phoxinus eos and Phoxinus neogaeus coexist with a population of P. eos in East Inlet Pond, Coos Co., New Hampshire. Chromosome counts and flow cytometric analysis of erythrocyte DNA indicate that these hybrids include diploids, triploids, and diploid-triploid mosaics. The mosaics have both diploid and triploid cells in their bodies, even within the same tissues. All three hybrid types are heterozygous at seven putative loci for which P. eos and P. neogaeus are fixed for different allozymes, indicating that the hybrids carry one eos and one neogaeus haploid genome. The diploid hybrids are therefore P. eos-neogaeus, whereas the triploids and mosaics are derived from P. eos-neogaeus but have an extra eos or neogaeus genome in all or some of their cells. Diploid, triploid, and mosaic hybrids accept tissue grafts from diploid hybrids, indicating that all individuals carry the identical eos-neogaeus diploid genome. Thus, one P. eos-neogaeus clone exists at East Inlet Pond. Grafts among the triploids and mosaics or from these individuals to diploid hybrids are rejected, indicating that the third genome is different in each triploid and mosaic individual. In this study, diploid and mosaic hybrids, carrying the clonal eos-neogaeus genome, were bred in the laboratory with males of P. eos or P. neogaeus. Both diploid and mosaic hybrids produced diploid, triploid, and mosaic offspring, revealing the source of the three hybrid types present at East Inlet Pond. These offspring accepted grafts from P. eos-neogaeus individuals, indicating that they all had inherited the identical eos-neogaeus genome. Most grafts among triploid and mosaic progeny, or from these individuals to their diploid broodmates, were rejected, indicating that the third genome was different in each triploid and mosaic (as was observed in the wild hybrids) and was contributed by sperm from males of P. eos or P. neogaeus. Diploid progeny are produced if sperm serves only to stimulate embryogenesis; triploid or mosaic progeny are produced if the sperm genome is incorporated. Although based on a mode of reproduction that by definition results in a genetically identical community of individuals, i.e., gynogenesis, reproduction in hybrid Phoxinus results in a variety of genetically distinct individuals by the incorporation of sperm into approximately 50% of the diploid ova produced.     

SORBITOL IN THE EGGS OF THE SILKWORM, BOMBYX MORI

Sorbitol was found to be a normal and sole monosaccharide demonstrable in the late ovarian and in the early embryonic stages of the silkworm, Bombyx mori. This observation was first made on a line of non-diapausing polyvoltine Katsumata strain, but was later confirmed by the analysis of two other Katsumata lines and on several polyvoltine or bivoltine strains. The identification of the sugar extracted from the diapause eggs of a bivoltine strain and from the non-diapausing eggs of a Katsumata strain was based on analyses involving paper chromatography, paper electrophoresis and sorbitol dehydrogenase.
