Recent studies have suggested that China populations are the result of introductions from the USA; however, detailed molecular studies need to be performed in order to understand the expansion and potential multiple introductions from other countries into China. As there were populations of red imported fire ant, S. invicta in different areas and with different methods of introduction, mitochondrial cytochrome oxidase Ⅰ gene was used as a marker from 12 populations in four cities in Fujian Province, China, to determine the relationship of invasion among these populations. The three most common haplotypes previously describe in invasive populations of S. invicta: H5, H22 and H36, were found in Fujian. However, frequencies in each city were different. For instance, three populations from Longyan city which invaded with waste plastics, shared haplotype H5. Populations from Xiamen city and Jinjiang city which dispersed with nursery stock, sward and scrap leather, shared haplotype H22. The population from Nanyan village of Xinluo district, Longyan city, bore haplotype H36. Mitochondrial data reveals that the invasion history of S. invicta in Fujian Province is complex, including multiple invasions probably from other provinces within China. Security measures to prevent S. invicta spreading within China are as important as from overseas.展开更多
文摘目的探讨照射剂量和照射时间对电离辐射诱导L02人正常肝细胞(简称"L02细胞")的线粒体编码基因细胞色素c氧化酶(COX)Ⅱ基因表达、三磷酸腺苷(ATP)水平和细胞活力变化的影响。方法 采用2×7析因设计方法。0、1、3、5、8、10、15 Gy剂量60Coγ射线分别照射L02细胞24、48 h后,采用逆转录聚合酶链反应(PCR)和实时荧光定量PCR法检测COXⅡmRNA表达水平,蛋白质印迹法检测COXⅡ蛋白表达水平,ATP发光检测试剂盒和CCK-8试剂盒检测细胞内ATP水平和细胞活力。结果 照射时间与照射剂量对L02细胞的COXⅡmRNA及蛋白表达水平上调、ATP水平升高和细胞活力下降的影响存在交互作用(F值分别为92.43、267.40、6.99、116.11,P<0.05或P<0.001)。在一定照射剂量范围内,照射后24 h COXⅡ蛋白表达水平、照射后24、48 h ATP水平和细胞活力分别与照射剂量存在剂量-效应关系(P<0.05或P<0.01)。结论 照射剂量和照射时间的交互作用影响60Coγ照射诱导的L02细胞COXⅡ基因表达和细胞内ATP水平与细胞活力。
