For this purpose, two locations for every type of soils were evaluated. Both were placed at the Agronomy University (Faculdade de Cidncias Agron6micas) in SAo Manuel, State of SAo Paulo, Brazil. The floodplain soil was vegetated with Southern Cattail (Typha domingensis). In both places, soil samples were collected from several depths: 0, 30, 60 and 100 cm. Results show that lower soil density values (0.15 g/cm3) with organic texture and high porosities values (up to 86.2%) were found in samples with the highest organic material content in the floodplain soil. For this field experiment, flood plains soils (characterised as basin gley soils) presented high volumetric instability with a retratibility of 67.49% and higher water storage capacities compared to riparian stands soils (characterised as fluvic neosoils).展开更多

Lockwood Kipling was both influence on and interpreter of the Jungle Books, as shown above all in the development from his Beast andMan in lndia of 1891 through his illustrations for the 1894 Jungle Book, and 1895 Second Jungle Book, to his illustrations that appear in the rearranged stories of The Jungle Book, and Second Jungle Book in the 1897 Scribners Outward Bound (O/B) editions. A variation on Lockwood's O/B mode of Jungle Books illustrations is found in Watson's illustrations for the 1948 Doubleday edition, Jungle Boobs, which is the title I will use throughout.1 Part One details the influence of two animal empathy writers, Lockwood Kipling and Ernest Thompson Seton, on the Jungle Books. Part Two uses recent philosophical studies of empathy in the animal and human relationship. Part Three applies a German philosophy of art history to the new look of the O/B and Doubleday Jungle Books. Part Four interprets selected Jungle Books stories in the light of Parts one, two and three.展开更多

通过线粒体DNA控制区的结构和多态性来研究中国家鸡和红色原鸡的遗传多态性与系统进化。测定14个中国地方鸡种和红色原鸡2个亚种的256个个体线粒体DNA控制区部分序列约560bp,结果表明,A、C、G、T这4种核苷酸的平均比例分别为25.∞%...通过线粒体DNA控制区的结构和多态性来研究中国家鸡和红色原鸡的遗传多态性与系统进化。测定14个中国地方鸡种和红色原鸡2个亚种的256个个体线粒体DNA控制区部分序列约560bp,结果表明,A、C、G、T这4种核苷酸的平均比例分别为25.∞%、37.40%、4.40%和33.20%。共发现44个变异位点,约占分析位点总数的7.86%,没有观测到插入/缺失,颠换和转换之比为0.13;共具有32种单倍型,9种为共享单倍型;16个群体内单倍型多样度从0到0.964,单倍型变异度总体为0.909±0.014,整体的平均核苷酸差异数为7.276,核苷酸多样度为1.851%。群体间核苷酸分歧度(Dxy)在0.747%~3.125%之间变化,核苷酸净遗传距离(Da)为0.015%~2.633%。16个群体表现出较高水平的遗传多态性,群体间表现出显著的遗传分化。群体遗传多态性和亲缘关系分析表明,一些中国家鸡的群体(如固始鸡和仙居鸡)起源于泰国红色原鸡Gallus gallu sgallus亚种,一些中国家鸡的群体(如茶花鸡和藏鸡等)起源于中国红色原鸡Gallus gallus spadiceus亚种,在一些中国地方鸡种还同时具有这2种红色原鸡的遗传贡献;认为中国家鸡起源于泰国或单纯起源于中国的观点都是不全面的。展开更多
