“小云南”——独特的移民文化符号

我国山东半岛、东北和内蒙古东部地区,分布众多"小云南"人后裔。其先祖来自明朝在今云南祥云县境内设置的洱海卫,为卫所中屯戍的军士及军户。明洪武永乐年间,调防山东半岛屯戍抗倭。明末清初屯戍制度废除后就地落籍为民,清末部分后裔随"闯关东"大潮迁居东北。一些先祖来自洱海卫之外卫所所谓"小云南"人后裔,是移民迁徙中产生的文化认同现象,因此"小云南"已成为一种独特的移民文化符号。

胶东半岛上云南与“小云南”移民的集体记忆

今胶东半岛一带广泛分布着云南与"小云南"移民后裔。在明代官方文献中,没有成规模地从云南向山东移民的记载,这场大迁徙基本上是一个民间话题,以族谱、故事、传说、日常生活习惯、体貌特征,特别是丧葬习俗,在民间世代传承。云南与"小云南"某些移民传说又与其他移民传说混淆一起,致使当今的研究不免落入其窠臼之中。

Assessment of Genetic Diversity of Yunnan,Tibetan,and Xinjiang Wheat Using SSR Markers

A total of 206 SSR （Simple Sequence Repeats） primer pairs were used to detect genetic diversity in 52 accessions of three unique wheat varieties of western China. A total of 488, 472, and 308 allelic variants were detected in 31 Yunnan, 15 Tibetan and 6 Xinjiang wheat accessions with an average of PIC values 0.2764, 0.3082, and 0.1944, respectively. Substantial differences in allelic polymorphisms were detected by SSR markers in all the 21 chromosomes, the 7 homoeologous groups, and the three genomes （A, B, and D） in Yunnan, Tibetan, and Xinjiang wheat. The highest and lowest allelic polymorphisms in all the 21 chromosomes were observed in 3B and 1D chromosomes, respectively. The lowest and highest allelic polymorphisms among the seven homoeologous groups was observed in 6 and 3 homoeologous groups, respectively. Among the three genomes, B genome showed the highest, A the intermediate, and D the lowest allelic polymorphism. The genetic distance （GD） indexes within Yunnan, Tibetan, and Xinjiang wheat, and between different wheat types were calculated. The GD value was found to be much higher within Yunnan and Tibetan wheat than within Xinjiang wheat, but the GD value between Yunnan and Tibetan wheat was lower than those between Yunnan and Xinjiang wheat, and between Tibetan and Xinjiang wheat. The cluster analysis indicated a closer relationship between Yunnan and Tibetan wheat than that between Yunnan and Xinjiang wheat or between Tibetan and Xinjiang wheat.

Cloning of Acetyl-CoA Carboxylase accD Subunit Gene from Brassica campestris and Effect of Its Expression on Oil Content

[Objective] This study aimed to clone accD gene from Brassica campestris （Yunnan small rapeseed） with different oil content and analyze the effect of accD gene expression level on rapeseed oil content. [Method] The accD gene encoding β-CT Ⅱsubunit of acetyl-CoA carboxylase was cloned from Yunnan small rapeseeds with different oil content. Then, sequence alignment and the influence upon seed oil content by the expression of accD gene were analyzed. [Result] There were a few base pair substitutes among the accD genes from different Yunnan small rapeseeds, and their homology was up to 98.6%. The expression of accD gene was increased with reproduction development, and reached peak in late-stage siliques. The seed oil content was positively influenced by the expression of accD gene in middle-stage and late-stage siliques. [Conclusion] This study provides a certain theoretical basis for illustrating the molecular mechanism about rapeseed oil content and breeding new high-oil rapeseed cultivars.

Status and historical changes in the fish community in Erhai Lake

Erhai Lake is the second largest freshwater lake on the Yunnan Plateau, Southwest China. In recent decades, a number of exotic fish species have been introduced into the lake and the fish community has changed considerably. We evaluated the status of the fish community based on surveys with multimesh gillnet, trap net, and benthic fyke-net between May 2009 and April 2012. In addition, we evaluated the change in the community using historical data （1952-2010） describing the fish community and fishery harvest. The current fish community is dominated by small-sized fishes, including Pseudorasbora parva, Rhinogobius giurinus, Micropercops swinhonis, Hemiculter leucisculus, and Rhinogobius cliffordpopei. These accounted for 87.7% of the 22 546 total specimens collected. Omnivorous and carnivorous species dominated the community. A canonical correspondence analysis （CCA） plot revealed that the distribution of fishes in the lake is influenced by aquatic plants, water temperature, pH, and season. The abundance of indigenous species has declined sharply, and a majority of endemic species have been extirpated from the lake （a decrease from seven to two species）. In contrast, the number of exotic species has increased since the 1960s to a total of 22 at present. The fishery harvest decreased initially following the 1960s, but has since increased due to the introduction of non-native fish and stocking of native fish. The fishery harvest was significantly correlated with total nitrogen, not total phosphorus, during the past 20 years. Based on our results, we discuss recommendations for the restoration and conservation of the fish resources in Erhai Lake.

Seasonal waterbird population changes in Lashihai Lake in northwest Yunnan, China

We studied the waterbird population at Lashihai Lake, Yunnan Province, China, which is a Ramsar Site(Wetland of International Importance), to determine seasonal variation in the species composition and size of the waterbird population. The study was conducted at five selected spots along Lashihai Lake at the same time each week from August 2011 to September 2013. In total, 62 waterbird species were recorded, of which 38.71%, 35.48%, 16.13%, and 9.68% were winter migrants, passage visitors, residents, and summer migrants, respectively. We found important seasonal changes in waterbird species composition and population size. Waterbird species richness was highest from September to the following April, with the total species numbers peaking in December. Total individual numbers peaked twice from late November to early December and mid-to-late February. However, waterbird species and individual numbers were comparatively lower from May to August. The change in species composition was determined by the arrival and departure dynamics of winter migrants and passage visitors. Winter migrants primarily caused the periodic changes in population size. Of concern,species and overall waterbird numbers seemed to be lower than the numbers in historical records. The decline of waterbird numbers implies that environmental changes caused by the implementation of the dam upstream of Lashihai Lake may have had adverse effects on this waterbird population. This study confirms the existence of major seasonal changes in species composition and size of the waterbird population at Lashihai Lake. Furthermore, the findings demonstrate that this wetland is of high conservation importance for waterbirds using the Central Asian–Indian and Asian–Pacific migratory routes.

Static and Dynamic Scaling Relationships for Moderate and Small Earthquakes in the Yunnan Region

Source spectra for moderate and small earthquakes are obtained after removing the path effect, site effect, and instrument response, etc. in the observed S-wave spectra. Based on the Brune source model and by means of genetic algorithm, the source parameters including seismic moment, stress drop, source dimension, etc. are determined, the radiated seismic energy for small-to-moderate earthquakes is measured with consideration of underestimation and compensation brought forth by limited bandwidth of the instrument, and the scaling relationships of static and dynamic parameters for earthquakes
