The results showed that spraying three exogenous sugar solutionsincreased markedly the content of sugar and protein of leaves under 700 μL·L^(-1) and 1 400μL·L^(-1) CO_2 The effect of spraying exogenous sucrose solution was the best among the threeexogenous sugars. The treatment of spraying exogenous sugar solution and 2 100 μL·L^(-1) CO_2constrained the accumulation of total sugar and protein of leaves. There was no difference inprotein content of leaves when spraying glucose and fructose solutions under 700 μL·L^(-1) and 1400 μL·L^(-1) CO_2. The treatment of 2 100 μL·L^(-1) CO_2 concentration significantly increasedthe contents of total sugar, sucrose, fructose, and protein of leaves compared with that of the 700μL·L^(-1) and 1 400 μL·L^(-1) CO_2 except the plants spraying fructose solution. There waspositive correlation between the content of sugar of leaves and CO_2 concentration when sprayingsame exogenous sugar solution.展开更多

Blood samples were collected randomly from 56 healthy individuals of Chinese Hans and 37 Mongolian. The detection of the point mutations of the MBL gene was performed by polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism (PCR-RFLP) and detections for plasma levels of MBL were determined by using MBL ELISA kits. A MBL PCR method of assay was established with high specificity, and good reproducibility. By optimizing the PCR condition, the optimal annealing temperature was 55℃, and the lowest detection limit was 160 pg. No bands were found in non-specificity samples (HAV, HBV, HCV and TB), and the sequences of PCR products were the same as the expected ones. Also a MBL PCR-RFLP was established. Upon electrophoresis of the digested products in 3% agarose gel, there were 3 patterns: in which 2 bands correspond to molecule weight 232 bp and 93 bp; 1 band, corresponds to molecule weight 325 bp and 3 bands correspond to molecule weight 325 bp, 232 bp and 93 bp, respectively. Three bands of 325 bp, 232 bp and 93 bp of point mutations were found at codon 54 of MBL coding gene. Frequencies in healthy Han and Mongolian population were 0.2321 and 0.1757 respectively. The average plasma MBL concentration was 1998.750 μg/L, with SD of 1505.152 in 56 healthy Han population and 2525.676 μg/L, with SD of 1955.188 in 37 Mongolian. A negative correlation between MBL concentration and gene mutation frequency was found in healthy Han population. Frequency of point mutation was 1.00 when the MBL concentrations were below 100 μg/L; frequency of point mutation was 0.4524 when the concentration was 100 μg/L to 1000 μg/L; and the frequency of point mutation was 0.0156 when the concentration was over 1000 μg/L. Analysis of association between MBL concentration and gene frequency in healthy Mongolian population showed that frequency of point mutation was 1.00 when the MBL concentrations were below 100 μg/L and the frequency of point mutation was 0.4583 when the MBL concentrations were 100 μg/L to 1000 μg/L; no point mutation was found when the concentration was over 1000 μg/L. It is concluded that the frequencies of mutation at codon 54 of MBL coding gene had been determined in both healthy Hans and Mongolian population, and the frequency was higher in healthy Hans than that of Mongolian, but no statistical significance (χ 2=0.8574, P >0.05). The MBL level was lower in healthy Hans than in Mongolian population, but there was no statistical significance( t =1.448, 0.1< P <0.2). There was a negative correlation between frequency of point mutation and MBL concentrations in both Hans and Mongolian population( r =-0.62, r =-0.641).展开更多
