The as-prepared TS-1 was characterized with X-ray diffraction(XRD), scanning electron microcopy(SEM), N_2 adsorption-desorption, Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR)spectroscopy, UV-Visible(UV-Vis)diffuse reflectance spectra and UV Raman spectroscopy. The results indicated that the addition of TEA resulted in the formation of mesopores and the slight increase of framework titanium in TS-1. TS-1 synthesized with the addition of TEA exhibited a higher stability in the cyclohexanone ammoximation than that without the addition of TEA, attributing to the increase of mesopore volumes and the slight increase of the framework titanium in TS-1. However, when the addition of TEA was up to TEA/SiO_2 ratio of 0.24, the crystallinity and framework titanium of TS-1 decreased markedly, and the average crystal sizes of TS-1 increased, with the catalyst stability becoming poor.展开更多

The effects of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on the fer- tilizing sperm were also examined. Both normal and UV-irradiated sperm nuclei enlarged at three distinct phases (phase A, meta- phase I; phase B, polar body formation; and phase C, female pronuclear development and expansion) that were temporally correlated with meiotic process of the maternal chromosomes. Sperm nuclei underwent a rapid, initial enlargement during phase A, but con- densed slightly during phase B, then re-enlarged during phase C. The effects of UV irradiation were not apparent during transforma- tion of the sperm nucleus into a male pronucleus, and there was not any apparent effect on meiotic maturation and development of the female pronucleus. However, the rate of expansion of the UV-irradiated sperm nuclei and the size of male pronuclei were reduced apparently. Unlike the female pronucleus, the male pronucleus derived from sperm genome inactivated by UV irradiation did not form chromosomes, but became a dense chromatin body (DCB). At mitotic anaphase, DCB did not participate in the karyokinesis of the first cleavage as evidenced by chromosomal nondisjunction, demonstrating the effectiveness of using UV irradiation to induce gynogenetic scallop embryos.展开更多
We report the effect of UVoB irradiation (9.6 kJ m-2 day^-) on interspecific competition between two species of macroalgae, Ulva pertusa (U) and Grateloupiafilicina (G), in co-culture.

Growth of U. pertusa and G. filicina was inhibited by UV-B irradiation in mono-culture and specific growth rate (μ) declined as a result. Interspecific competition between U. pertusa and G filicina was closely related to the initial weights when co-cultured. When initial ratios of U. pertusa (U) to G filicina (G) were U:G=I.2:I and 1:1, U. pertusa was the dominant algae. When the initial U:G ratio was 1:1.2, G. filicina was competitively dominant in the earlier stage, but U. pertusa grew faster, superseding G. filicina in the later stage. At initial ration U:G = 1:1.4, G. filicina was predominant. Under UV-B irradiation, the competitive ability of G filicina was weakened and the interspecific competitive balance favored U. pertusa, which suggests that G. filicina was more sensitive to UV-B irradiation. We also probed the potential allelopathic effects between the two species, which led to mutual growth inhibition.展开更多
