报道了国丧外植体的愈伤组织诱导及其植株再生的研究结果,单独的外源生长素２,４－Ｄ适宜诱导外植体脱分化产生愈伤组织。再生芽的分化只需添加６－ＢＡ;当ＮＡＡ与６－ＢＡ配合添加于培养基中时,则有利于再生根的繁茂生长,从而形成完整的再生植株。     

Cl-、NO3-和SO42-离子对漆酶催化活性的抑制作用

以５,６－二溴－２,３－二氰基氢醌为底物,在ｐＨ值４．５０条件下,用分光光度法考察了Ｃｌ－、ＮＯ－３和ＳＯ２－４离子对漆酶催化活性的影响。发现Ｃｌ－、ＮＯ－３和ＳＯ２－４离子对漆酶的催化活性均有不同程度的抑制作用,其最大抑制率分别可达７５％、３１．４％和１７．１％。动力学研究表明,Ｃｌ－、ＮＯ－３和ＳＯ２－４离子的抑制作用是瞬时完成的,属于竞争性抑制过程,是通过与底物分子竞争漆酶分子中的Ⅱ型铜（Ⅱ）部位实现的。经测定,Ｃｌ－和ＮＯ－３离子与漆酶所形成的复合物其解离常数分别为１．１２×１０－４ｍｏｌ·ｄｍ－３和１．７８×１０－３ｍｏｌ·ｄｍ－３。     

Effect of lanthanum ions on tRNAphe structure: Imino proton NMR spectroscopy

The effect of lanthanum ions on the structural and conformational change of yeast tRNA Phe was studied by 1H NMR. The results suggest that the tertiary base pair (G-15)(C-48), which was located in the terminal in the augmented dihydrouridine helix (D-helix), was markedly affected by adding La 3+ and shifted 0.33 downfield. Based pair (U-8)(A-14), which is associated with a tertiary interaction, links the base of the acceptor stem to the D-stem and anchors the elbow of the L structure, shifted 0.20 upfield. Another imino proton that may be affected by La 3+ in tRNA Phe is the tertiary base pair (G-19)(C-56). The assignment of this resonance is tentative since it is located in the region of highly overlapping resonances between 12.6 and 12.2. This base pair helps to anchor the D-loop to the TΨC loop.     

荧光法测定Ce^3＋与tRNA的结合常数

与其它稀土离子的自身荧光相比,稀土Ｃｅ３＋水合离子的荧光要强得多,并且在很宽的浓度范围内与其浓度成很好的正比关系,因此可以用来确定Ｃｅ３＋离子的浓度．ｔＲＮＡ非常强烈地猝灭Ｃｅ３＋水合离子的荧光．采用荧光滴定的方法研究了Ｃｅ３＋－ｔＲＮＡ体系,并用Ｓｃａｔｃｈａｒｄ方法测量了Ｃｅ３＋离子和ｔＲＮＡ的结合数和结合常数,结果发现：ｔＲＮＡ中有２组Ｃｅ３＋结合位置,其结合常数分别为约１０８ｍｏｌ／Ｌ和１０５ｍｏｌ／Ｌ．向体系中加入精胺可使结合数和结合常数稍微降低．

超大比表面石油沥青基碳纤维微电极研究

作者研制了一种以石油沥青基碳纤维为电极材料的微电极,基于此种材料的特殊性能,经氧化处理后可获得较一般微电极为大的比表面积,因而其电流响应亦较一般微电极为大。且由于其表面在一定条件下可生成大量的碳氧基团,故其电极电位会随溶液ｐＨ值而线性变化,以至该电极亦可用作测量ｐＨ值的微电极。     

A massive phytoplankton bloom induced by an ecosystem-scale iron fertilization experiment in the equatorial Pacific Ocean

The seeding of an expanse of surface waters in the equatorial Pacific Ocean with low concentrations of dissolved iron triggered a massive phytoplankton bloom which consumed large quantities of carbon dioxide and nitrate that these microscopic plants cannot fully utilize under natural conditions. These and other observations provide unequivocal support for the hypothesis that phytoplankton growth in this oceanic region is limited by iron bioavailability.     

Insect motion detectors matched to visual ecology

To detect motion, primates, birds and insects all use local detectors to correlate signals sampled at one location in the image with those sampled after a delay at adjacent locations. These detectors can adapt to high image velocities by shortening the delay. To investigate whether they use long delays for detecting low velocities, we compared motion-sensitive neurons in ten species of fast-flying insects, some of which encounter low velocities while hovering. Neurons of bee-flies and hawkmoths, which hover, are tuned to lower temporal frequencies than those of butterflies and bumblebees, which do not. Tuning to low frequencies indicates longer delays and extends sensitivity to lower velocities. Hoverflies retain fast temporal tuning but use their high spatial acuity for sensing low-velocity motion. Thus an unexpectedly wide range of spatio-temporal tuning matches motion detection to visual ecology.     

Nα-quinaldyl-L-arginine·HCl,a new defensive alkaloid fromSubcoccinella-24-punctata (Coleoptera,Coccinellidae)

The isolation of N-quinaldyl-L-arginine·HCl (1) from the CoccinellidaeSubcoccinella-24-punctata is reported. The structure, first established on the basis of the analysis of the spectral properties of1, has been confirmed by synthesis. The alkaloid is of endogenous origin and markedly deterrent to ants.
