Phosphate-solubilizing bacteria and rock phosphate had asynergistic effect on the colonization of plant roots by the AMfungus. There was a positive interaction between the PS bacterium andthe AM fungu in mobilization of rock phosphate, leading to improvedplant P nutrition. In dual inoculation with the AM fungus and the PSbacterium, the main contribution to plant P nutrition was made by theAM fungus. Application of P to be low P soil increased phosphataseactivity In the rhizosphere. Alkaline phosphatase activity wassignificantly promoted by inoculation with either the PS bacterium orthe AM fungus.展开更多

In this paper, we have analyzed the effect of slenderness ratio on the mechanical properties and energy dissipation characteristics of red sandstone under high strain rates. The processes of compaction, elastic deformation and stress softening deformation of specimens contract with an increase in slenderness ratio, whilst the nonlinear deformation process extends correspondingly. In addition, degrees of damage of specimens reduced gradually and the type of destruction showed a transformation trend from stretching failure towards shear failure when the slenderness ratio increased. A model of dynamic damage evolution in red sandstone was established and the parameters of the constitutive model at different ratios of length to diameter were determined. By comparison with the experimental curve, the accuracy of the model, which could reflect the stress–strain dynamic characteristics of red sandstone, was verified. From the view of energy dissipation, an increase in slenderness ratio of a specimen decreased the proportion of energy dissipation and caused a gradual fall in the capability of energy dissipation during the specimen failure process. To some extent, the study indicated the effects of slenderness ratios on the mechanical properties and energy dissipation characteristics of red sandstone under the high strain rate, which provides valuable references to related engineering designs and academic researches.展开更多

Denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis （DGGE） showed that there were nine strains included in KO8-2, which originated from the genera of Bacillus, Geobacillus and Clostridium. They all belonged to thermophilic bacteria, and had been previously proved as degraders of at least one petroleum fraction. The crude oil degraded by KO8-2 was analyzed by infrared spectrophotometry, hydrocarbon group type analysis and gas chromatography. The results indicated that the bacterial consortium KO8-2 was able to utilize 64.33% of saturates, 27.06% of aromatics, 13.24% of resins and the oil removal efficiency reached up to 58.73% at 55 ~C when the oil concentration was 10 g/L. Detailed analysis showed that KO8-2 was able to utilize the hydrocarbon components before C19, and the n-alkanes ranging from C20--C33 were signifi- cantly degraded. The ratios of nC17/Pr and nC18/Ph were 3.12 and 3.87, respectively, before degradation, whereas after degradation the ratios reduced to 0.21 and 0.38, respectively. Compared with the control sample, the oil removal efficiency in KO8-2 composting reactor reached 50.12% after a degradation duration of 60 days.展开更多

Development of artificial infection methods for sweepovirus using agroinoculation is a highly efficient means of studying infectivity in sweet potato. Unlike other begomoviruses, it has proven difficult to infect sweet potato plants with sweepoviruses using infectious clones. A novel sweepovirus, called Sweet potato leaf curl virus-Jiangsu(SPLCV-JS), was recently identified in China. In addition, the infectivity of the SPLCV-JS clone has been demonstrated in Nicotiana benthamiana. Here we describe the agroinfection of the sweet potato cultivar Xushu 22 with the SPLCV-JS infectious clone using vacuum infiltration. Yellowing symptoms were observed in newly emerged leaves. Molecular analysis confirmed successful inoculation by the detection of viral DNA. A synergistic effect of SPLCV-JS and the heterologous betasatellite DNA-β of Tomato yellow leaf curl China virus isolate Y10(TYLCCNV-Y10) on enhanced symptom severity and viral DNA accumulation was confirmed. The development of a routine agroinoculation system in sweet potato with SPLCV-JS using vacuum infiltration should facilitate the molecular study of sweepovirus in this host and permit the evaluation of virus resistance of sweet potato plants in breeding programs.展开更多

METHODS： Blood samples were collected from 14 volunteers （8 positive and 6 negative for Hpylori detected by ^13C-urea breath test） of the general population. Erythrocyte membrane proteins of the subjects were examined by Western blot using anti-H pylori serum. The proteins related to the positive bands were identified by mass spectrum analysis. RESULTS： Anti-Hpylori antibodies had cross-reaction with the proteins of about 50 kDa of erythrocyte membranes in all samples independent of H pylori infection. One protein in the positive band was identified as Chain S, the crystal structure of the cytoplasmic domain of human erythrocyte Band-3 protein. CONCLUSION： Anti-HpyloH antibodies cross-react with some antigens of human erythrocyte membrane, which may provide a clue for the relationship between Hpylori infection and vascular disorders.展开更多

[Method]Three strains of Rhodopseudomonas palustrisSH2,Bacillus megateriumSHⅡ3,Bacillus mucilaginosusSH1 were applied in this study. Cucumber were cultured in plastic pot,inoculating mixture with seven different proportion for 28 days. [Result]2:1:2 treatment had the strongest effect on N,P,K uptake and concentrations in the soils,on increasing enrich of Fe and Zn inroots and shoots and on plant height,stem diameter,dry weight,relative chlorophyll contents. Treatments of 1:1:2 and 1:1:1 were following ,while the weakest effect was given by 1:2:2,2:2:1 and 1:2:1 treatments. [Conclusion]2:1:2 is the optimum proportion of the three bacteria for nutrition uptake and growth of cucumber seedlings.展开更多

The unique chemical composition and excellent physicochemical properties make Salecan a promising material for applications in coagulation, lubrication, protection against acute liver injury, and alleviating constipation. In this study, we cloned the Vitreosci/la hemoglobin gene into a broad-host-range plasmid pCM158. Without antibiotic selection, there was negligible loss of the plasmid in the host Agrobacterium sp. ZX09 after one passage of cultivation. The expression of Vitreoscilla hemoglobin was demonstrated by carbon monoxide （CO） dif- ference spectrum. The engineered strain Agrobacterium sp. ZX09 increased Salecan yield by 30%. The other physi- ological changes included its elevated respiration rate and cellular invertase activity.展开更多
