Brucella spp. L-forms have been proposed to be stationary phase organisms in the evolution of new variants and enduring entities in the host in complicated cases of brucellosis and during latent brucellosis. In vitro formation of Brucella L-forms has been achieved by treating the cells with sub-lethal doses of penicillin. Interestingly, Brucella spp. have classified during the evolution into two groups, penicillin susceptible or penicillin resistant, yet both types grow on 20 μg/ml of methicillin. Strains proven susceptible to penicillin grew in the presence of methicillin as L-forms as demonstrated by light and electron microscopy. In addition, the B. melitensis vaccine strain Rev.1, a penicillin susceptible organism, responded to sheep serum by development of L-form-like structures unlike wild type, strain 16M. The two strains grew normally in sheep macrophages. We propose, for the first time, a model that associates Brucella pathogenicity with the structure and activity of two of their penicillin binding proteins (PBPs). According to the model, PBP1 has evolved as the major cell wall synthesizing enzyme of the genus, capable of responding to host serum growth factor(s) necessary for Brucella survival in the host. This property is associated with high avidity to β-lactam antibiotics. PBP2 complements the activity of PBP1. New β-lactam antibiotics and improved vaccines might be developed based on this property.  相似文献

Transmission of bovine tuberculosis was quantified in three dairy herds located in south Santa Fe Province, Argentina. Using estimates of Mycobacterium bovis transmission (β) and a Reed–Frost simulation model, the prevalence of tuberculosis infection in the study herds over time was investigated. The Reed–Frost model was modified by incorporating randomness in both β and the incubation period () of M. bovis. The mean estimated herd β was 2.2 infective contacts per year and did not differ significantly between the study herds. Modeling as Poisson distributed (mean 24 months) best fit the observed prevalences. Infection was predicted by the model either to spread quickly (<10 years) within a herd and reach a high prevalence (>50%), or to persist at a low prevalence (<5–10%). The model was robust, predictions were realistic and the mean β estimated was consistent with previous studies of bovine tuberculosis.  相似文献

Lymphocytes of bovine milk origin were investigated by immunostimulation in vitro to standardize the assay for measuring the immune responses of the cells which might be useful in further understanding the immunopathology and diagnosis of bovine brucellosis. The lymphocytes were separated from whole freshly collected milk by centrifugation. The pellet of lymphocytes was washed in RPMI-1640 medium, cultured at different concentrations for different days and with Brucella abortus soluble antigen strain 1119-3 and Concanavalin A. Each culture was labelled with 1.0 μCi of methyl-[3H]thymidine 16–18 hours prior to termination of incubation at 37 C. Termination was done by cooling to 4 C. The cells were harvested for liquid scintillation counting spectrometry. In the groups of calfhood vaccinated cows and nonexposed milkers, a milk lymphocyte concentration of 2.0 × 106/ml of medium yielded a statistically significant blastogenesis. The Brucella abortus soluble antigen concentration of 4.4 μg of protein/well was found optimal to induce significant immunostimulation. A period of 4 days of incubation of the milk lymphocyte in the test was found optimal in inducing statistically significant blastogenesis in this system.  相似文献

The effect of endotoxin on follicular growth and on secretion of LH, estradiol-17β, progesterone and cortisol during the proestrous phase in cattle was investigated. Holstein heifers were treated with PGF2 at 11–13 d after ovulation to induce luteolysis. At 42 hr after PGF2 treatment, heifers were administered either lipopolysaccharide (LPS; Escherichia coli, O111:B4, 5 μg/kg, n = 6) or saline (control; n = 6) by i.v. bolus injection. Ovarian structures were monitored daily by transrectal ultrasonography, and blood samples were collected at various times for hormonal analysis. The duration from PGF2 treatment to ovulation was significantly longer in the LPS group (8.0 ± 1.3 d) than in the control group (4.2 ± 0.2 d). LPS significantly reduced the pulse frequency of LH for 6 hr after the administration, and increased the mean concentration and pulse amplitude of LH from 3 to 6 hr after the administration. The plasma concentrations of progesterone and cortisol were transiently increased after LPS administration. The plasma concentration of estradiol-17β was significantly decreased at 24 hr after LPS administration compared to that in the controls. Five of six LPS-treated heifers exhibited no preovulatory LH surge until 120 hr after PGF2 treatment and the remaining heifer exhibited the surge at 108 hr after PGF2 treatment, while the LH surge was observed at 54–78 hr after PGF2 treatment in control heifers. These results suggest that endotoxin disrupts progression of the proestrous phase of cattle, interrupting the preovulatory estradiol rise and thus delaying the LH surge and the subsequent ovulation.  相似文献

Antimicrobial resistance of Salmonella spp., especially resistance mediated by extended spectrum β-lactamases (ESBL), is a growing public health concern. Understanding the mechanisms through which Salmomella spp. acquire the resistance genes can lead to the development of intervention and mitigation strategies. Thirty-one Salmonella isolates of bovine origin were analyzed by serotyping, antimicrobial susceptibility testing, phage induction and bacterial host range determination, and phage transduction of antimicrobial resistance. The Salmonella isolates consisted of 12 serovars. Resistance to 1 or more antibiotics was detected in 12 isolates. Inducible phages were recovered from 19 Salmonella (61%) by spot lysis assay. Of the 19 phage samples, 13 were able to multiply in 2 or more Salmonella of various serovars. A cross-serovar transduction of antimicrobial resistance was observed from S. Heidelberg to S. Typhimurium. Transfection of an antimicrobial-susceptible strain of S. Typhimurium with a phage propagated in a S. Heidelberg resistant to multiple β-lactam antibiotics and tetracycline resulted in independent acquisition of blaCMY-2, tet(A), and tet(B). These data indicate that inducible phages are common in Salmonella of bovine origin, many of them demonstrate a broad host range, and wild-type phage mediated transduction may contribute to the dissemination of antimicrobial resistance, including the resistance mediated by ESBL.  相似文献

The effects of excessive non-toxic dietary Vitamin D3 supplementation on Ca homeostasis with specific effects on endochondral ossification and skeletal remodeling were investigated in a group of growing Great Dane dogs supplemented with cholecalciferol (Vitamin D3; HVitD) versus a control group (CVitD) (1350 μg versus 11.4 μg Vitamin D3 per kilogram diet) from 6 to 21 weeks of age. There were no differences between groups in plasma concentrations of total Ca, inorganic phosphate, growth hormone, and insulin-like growth factor I and no signs of Vitamin D3 intoxication in HVitD. For the duration of the study in HVitD compared to CVitD, plasma levels of parathyroid hormone (PTH) decreased, calcitonin (CT) increased, 25-hydroxycholecalciferol [25(OH)D3] increased 30- to 75-fold, 24,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [24,25(OH)2D3] increased 12- to 16-fold, and 1,25-dihydroxycholecalciferol [1,25(OH)2D3] decreased by approximately 40%. The latter was attributed to the two-fold increased metabolic clearance rate in the HVitD versus CVitD accompanied by the absence of the anabolic effect of PTH on the production of 1,25(OH)2D3. Fractional Ca absorption () did not differ between groups at 8 and 14 weeks of age, whereas at 20 weeks of age increased by only 16.4% in HVitD compared to CVitD. Excessive non-toxic Vitamin D3 supplementation resulted in decreased bone remodeling and focal enlargement of the growth plate with morphology resembling those induced by administration of CT. Hypercalcitoninemia and the imbalanced relationship between 1,25(OH)2D3 and 24,25(OH)2D3 are potent candidates for the disturbed endochondral ossification.  相似文献

Susceptibility to IVM (IVM) of “strain A” Haemonchus contortus which had been exposed to IVM four times over a 2-year period was compared to IVM susceptibility of “strain C” H. contortus which had no prior field exposure to IVM, by in vivo and in vitro methods. In vivo, the percentage reduction in faecal egg counts (FEC) and the total worm counts (TWC) were compared between control animals (lambs and kids) and animals treated with low dose IVM (20 μg/kg). In vitro susceptibility to IVM was evaluated by larval migration inhibition (LMI) after the two strains of H. contortus were exposed to different concentrations of IVM. The dose response, measured as the proportion of larvae inhibited from migrating, was used to estimate LD50. Although differences in response to IVM in the in vivo determinations were not significant, “strain A” H. contortus had a significantly higher LD50 than “strain C” in the LMI assay. Coincident with the conduct of the in vivo experiment, it was observed that “strain A” H. contortus established and survived better than “strain C” in the control lambs.  相似文献

An experimental oral infection of goats with a caprine isolate of Mycobacterium a. subsp. paratuberculosis was used to investigate immunological and bacteriological events during the subclinical phase of infection. Seven goats at 5–8 weeks of age were given a bacterial suspension in milk-replacement three times weekly for 9 weeks. Six animals were kept as controls.

Cellular recall responses against M. a. paratuberculosis were analysed by means of a lymphocyte proliferation test, an IFN-γ assay and an IL-2 receptor assay. All inoculated animals had detectable CMI responses from 9 weeks post-inoculation and through the 2 years of study, although the responses were highest during the first year. Antibodies against M. a. paratuberculosis could be detected from weeks 15–20 in four of the seven animals, and one additional animal became antibody positive at week 35, while two inoculated animals did not produce significant antibody titres during the experiment. At about 1-year post-inoculation, two animals became faecal shedders, while two others started to excrete bacteria into faeces about 2 years post-inoculation. The appearance of M. a. paratuberculosis in faeces was not associated with a decline in cellular responses as far as could be assessed using the current methods for measuring CMI.

Pathological lesions due to M. a. paratuberculosis infection and presence of bacteria were recorded in the intestine and/or mesenteric lymph nodes of five animals while lymph node changes suggestive of paratuberculosis were observed in one animal. Only the two animals with no signs of an active infection at necropsy showed a considerable decline in the cellular parameters during the last year of the study, particularly in the IFN-γ assay.

The two animals with the highest levels of M. a. paratuberculosis responsive CD8+ lymphocytes in the circulation about 1-year post-inoculation had no detectable lesions in the distal ileum and colon at necropsy, while high numbers of γδ T-cells responsive to M. a. paratuberculosis in the circulation were associated with disseminated lesions in the distal ileum and colon.  相似文献

Two mycoplasmas were grown in pure and mixed cultures in glucose calf-serum broth with initial pH 7.8. Sensitivity to pH was also tested. The main data for Mycoplasma bovirhinis and Mycoplasma dispar, respectively, in pure cultures were as follows: lag phase, days: <1, 1–2; log phase: 1–2, 1–4; relatively stationary phase: 0–1, 2–4; decline phase (to the extent roughly logarithmic): 2–6, 5–10; maximal titers: 5 × 107 to 109, 5 × 106 to 108 color changing units per 0.2 ml; highest pH, approximately, at which decline started: 7.7 and 7.0; definitely toxic initial pH: 5.6, 6.8; relative production of acidity; less, more. Decline either shortly ended in loss of viability or, correlated with higher pH levels, led to a prolonged maintenance in lower numbers. The decline of M. bovirhinis was postulated to be essentially caused by an autotoxic product/products other than H+.

In mixed cultures an antagonistic effect due to the faster growing M. bovirhinis against M. dispar was recorded. The effect varied according to the initial numbers of organisms and their ratio. Two mechanisms seemed to be active: 1. decrease of pH somewhat below neutrality led to the death of the sensitive M. dispar; 2. M. dispar, when present in relatively high initial numbers, was inhibited by M. bovirhinis during the latter's logarithmic growth at pH-levels above 7.0, the inhibition ending shortly afterwards. A rapidly inactivated product/products of M. bovirhinis metabolism, inhibitory to M. dispar was posited. The results offer an improved insight into diagnostic practices for M. dispar.  相似文献

The present study was an investigation into the role of T lymphocytes in the killing of antigen-sensitized macrophages (MΦ) in bovine brucellosis. Following confirmation of bovine T lymphocyte cell lines derived from Brucella abortus Strain 19 vaccinated steers as antigen-specific in proliferation studies using various antigens, we adapted an apoptosis assay for evaluation of cytotoxicity by these bovine T cells against autologous monocyte-derived macrophages (MDMΦ) as target cells. Various B. abortus antigen preparations were tested including whole γ-irradiated B. abortus bacteria (γBA), a soluble cytosolic protein fraction and a membrane-associated protein fraction. Both polyclonal and cloned T lymphocyte cell lines exhibited cytotoxicity against MDMΦ targets in an antigen-specific fashion. Polyclonal and cloned T lymphocyte cell lines demonstrated cytotoxic responses to varying degrees against B. abortus antigens regardless of whether the antigen used was whole nonviable bacteria, a soluble protein extract or a membrane-associated fraction of extracted bacteria. To further develop correlation of these responses to an in vivo host defense mechanism, cytotoxicity was evaluated using target cells that had been infected with live B. abortus S19 or B. abortus Strain 2308. Cytotoxic responses were also demonstrated consistently against infected targets with either strain of B. abortus although in most cases, cytotoxicity was higher against target cells sensitized with γBA compared to those infected with live bacteria. Cloned T lymphocyte cell lines were all CD4+, CD8− cells indicating that the observed cytotoxic responses were most likely due to an inflammatory Th1 response and may represent an important host defense mechanism induced by vaccination with live attenuated strains of B. abortus in cattle.  相似文献

The aim of the experiment was to determine the acute and chronic effects of the β-agonist, cimaterol, on plasma hormone and metabolite concentrations in steers. Twelve Friesian steers (liveweight = 488 ± 3 kg) were randomly assigned to receive either 0 (control; n=6) or .09 mg cimaterol/kg body weight/day (treated; n=6). Steers were fed grass silage ad libitum. Cimaterol, dissolved in 140 ml of acidified distilled water (pH 4.2), was administered orally at 1400 hr each d. After 13 d of treatment with cimaterol or vehicle (days 1 to 13), all animals were treated with vehicle for a further 7 d (days 14 to 20). On days 1, 13 and 20, blood samples were collected at 20 min-intervals for 4 hr before and 8 hr after cimaterol or vehicle dosing. All samples were assayed for growth hormone (GH) and insulin, while samples taken at −4, −2, 0, +2, +4, +6 and +8 hr relative to dosing were assayed for thyroxine (T4), triiodothyronine (T3), cortisol, urea, glucose and non-esterified fatty acids (NEFA). Samples taken at −3 and +3 hr relative to dosing were assayed for IGF-I only. On day 1, cimaterol acutely reduced (P<.05) GH and urea concentrations (7.6 vs 2.9 ± 1.4 ng/ml; and 6.0 vs 4.9 ± 0.45 mmol/l, respectively; mean control vs mean treated ± pooled standard error of difference), and increased (P<.05) NEFA, glucose and insulin concentrations (160 vs 276 ± 22 μmol/l, 4.1 vs 6.2 ± 0.15 mmol/l and 29.9 vs 179.7 ± 13.9 μU/ml, respectively). Plasma IGF-I, T3, T4 and cortisol concentrations were not altered by treatment. On day 13, cimaterol increased (P<.05) GH and NEFA concentrations (7.7 vs 14.5 ± 1.4 ng/ml and 202 vs 310 ± 22 mEq/l, respectively) and reduced (P<.05) plasma IGF-I concentrations (1296 vs 776 ± 227 ng/ml). Seven-d withdrawal of cimaterol (day 20) returned hormone and metabolite concentrations to control values. It is concluded that : 1) cimaterol acutely increased insulin, glucose and NEFA and decreased GH and urea concentrations, 2) cimaterol chronically increased GH and NEFA and decreased IGF-I concentrations, and 3) there was no residual effect of cimaterol following a 7-d withdrawal period.  相似文献

匍枝筋骨草悬浮细胞中含有较高β-蜕皮甾酮,为了进一步提高其β-蜕皮甾酮含量,通过添加茉莉酸甲酯(MeJA)进行一系列试验研究。以4~10代筋骨草悬浮细胞为试验材料,测定不同处理浓度和处理时间的MeJA对细胞生长、β-蜕皮甾酮积累的影响,细胞生长量采用称量计数,β-蜕皮甾酮含量则使用高效液相进行检测。结果表明:匍枝筋骨草悬浮细胞生长曲线及β-蜕皮甾酮积累曲线符合Logistics模型。在细胞快速生长的初始期(第4天)或中期(第7天)添加不同浓度的MeJA,对细胞生长影响相对较小,生长曲线均有小高峰,分别出现在处理后第5天和第3天,干物质积累量分别达到0.60和0.62 g。而在细胞快速生长的高峰期添加MeJA,细胞生长曲线呈下降趋势,细胞鲜重和干重显著低于CK(P<0.05)。在细胞快速生长的初始期或中期添加MeJA后细胞鲜重与β-蜕皮甾酮积累量呈显著相关。在细胞快速生长的初始期或中期添加10~50 μmol·L-1 MeJA后,细胞鲜重与CK对比表现为显著增加,其中添加50 μmol·L-1 MeJA后细胞鲜重最佳,最高可达到35.90 g,显著高于其他处理(P<0.05)。而同样条件下β-蜕皮甾酮表现为积累量小幅增加,最高量为0.5095 mg·g-1。添加100~200 μmol·L-1 MeJA均会抑制细胞的生长,其中添加200 μmol·L-1 MeJA细胞鲜重与CK相比显著下降,抑制率最高可达到38.88%。而添加100~200 μmol·L-1 MeJA后β-蜕皮甾酮积累量表现为大幅提升,最高可达3.5315 mg·g-1,为同期CK的14.44倍(P<0.01)。在细胞快速生长的高峰期添加10~200 μmol·L-1 MeJA后,细胞鲜重与CK相比都表现为下降,说明在此时添加这些浓度MeJA可抑制细胞的生长,最高抑制率可达31.01%。而在细胞快速生长的高峰期添加10~50 μmol·L-1 MeJA后,β-蜕皮甾酮积累量可在短时间内大量激增,β-蜕皮甾酮积累量最高达到1.4136 mg·g-1,是CK的5.06倍(P<0.01)。添加100~200 μmol·L-1 MeJA则积累量较少。在细胞快速生长的中期添加100 μmol·L-1 MeJA条件下对细胞的刺激较小,β-蜕皮甾酮积累量最高,达到3.5315 mg·g-1。  相似文献

In this study we have used the expression of perforin to characterize subsets of porcine cytotoxic lymphocytes. Perforin positive lymphocytes expressed both CD2 and CD8, most were small dense lymphocytes (SDL) and up to 90% were CD3 negative. However, the numbers of perforin positive T-cells increased with the age of the animal and their populations increased after specific antigen stimulation in vitro. The remaining perforin positive lymphocytes were large and granular and contained more CD3+CD5+CD6+ T-cells (−40%) of which a substantial proportion also co-expressed CD4. Perforin was expressed in subpopulations of both CD8 and CD8β lymphocytes, but was not expressed in γδ T-cells or monocyte/macrophages. The perforin positive CD3− subset was phenotypically homogeneous and defined as CD5−CD6−CD8β−CD16+CD11b+. This population had NK activity and expressed mRNA for the NK receptor NKG2D, and adaptors DAP10 and DAP12. Perforin positive T-cells (CD3+) could be divided into at least three subsets. The first subset was CD4−CD5+CD6+CD11b−CD16− most were small dense lymphocytes with cytotoxic T-cell activity but not all expressed CD8β. The second subset was mainly observed in the large granular lymphocytes. Their phenotype was CD4+CD5+CD6+CD8β+CD16−CD11b− and also showed functional CTL activity. Thus not all of double positive T-cells are memory helper T-cells. The third subset did not express the T-cell co-receptor CD6, but up to half of them expressed another T-cell co-receptor CD5. The majority of this subset expressed CD11b and CD16, thus the third perforin positive T-cell subset was CD3+CD4−CD5+CD6−CD8β±CD11b+CD16+, and possessed MHC-unrestricted cytotoxicity and LAK activity.  相似文献

通过将中性盐(NaCl、Na2SO4)和碱性盐(NaHCO3、Na2CO3)按碱性盐比例增加方式模拟出 5种混合盐碱胁迫(pH 7.33~10.39),采用50、100、150、200 μmol·L-1硝普钠(SNP)为外源NO供体对藜麦种子进行处理,分析外源NO对混合盐碱胁迫下藜麦种子萌发、幼苗生长及生理特性的影响。结果表明:盐碱胁迫显著抑制藜麦种子的萌发及幼苗的生长发育,且当混合盐碱溶液pH>9时,藜麦种子在萌发的第7天开始腐烂。各浓度SNP均显著促进混合盐碱胁迫下藜麦种子萌发和幼苗生长,其中100和150 μmol·L-1 SNP处理效果最佳。A(NaCl∶Na2SO4=1∶1)、B(NaCl∶Na2SO4∶NaHCO3=1∶2∶1)胁迫下施加SNP,藜麦幼苗根长最大增加了74.08%和70.77%,生物量最高增加了1.72和3.97倍。C(NaCl∶Na2SO4∶NaHCO3∶Na2CO3=1∶9∶9: 1)、D(NaCl∶Na2SO4∶NaHCO3∶Na2CO3=1∶1∶1∶1)、E(NaCl∶Na2SO4∶NaHCO3∶Na2CO3=9∶1∶1∶9)胁迫下施加SNP阻止种子的腐烂,根长分别是CK的1.03、0.83和0.60倍,生物量分别是CK的1.13、1.13和0.82倍。随SNP浓度增加,盐碱胁迫下幼苗脯氨酸含量及SOD、POD、CAT、APX活性先增加后降低,MDA含量先降低后增加。以上结果说明SNP对藜麦萌发生长的调控具有浓度效应,可通过增加渗透调节和抗氧化酶活性来缓解细胞损伤,从而促进幼苗生长。本研究为SNP提高藜麦耐盐碱性和揭示其调控机制提供理论依据。  相似文献

CD18, the common β subunit of β2-integrins, associates with four distinct chains to give rise to four different β2-integrins: CD11a/CD18 (LFA-1), CD11b/CD18 (Mac-1), CD11c/CD18 (CR4), and CD11d/CD18. Previously, we and others showed that CD18 of LFA-1 serves as a receptor for Mannheimia haemolytica leukotoxin (Lkt). Level of expression of Mac-1 is higher than that of LFA-1 and other β2-integrins on polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMNs), which constitute the leukocyte subset most susceptible to Lkt. Hence, it is likely that CD18 of Mac-1 also mediates Lkt-induced cytolysis. Co-expression of CD11b and CD18 of cattle on Lkt-resistant cells is necessary to irrefutably demonstrate the role of Mac-1 in Lkt-induced cytolysis. This approach is hindered by lack of availability of complete sequence of cattle CD11b. Therefore, in this study, we cloned and sequenced the full length cDNA encoding cattle CD11b. The 3459 bp cDNA of cattle CD11b encodes a polypeptide of 1152 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of CD11b of cattle exhibits 75% identity to that of humans and chimpanzees, 74% identity to that of dogs, and 70% identity to that of mice and rats. Availability of cattle CD11b cDNA should facilitate the elucidation of Lkt-receptor interactions in cattle and other species.  相似文献

Cow colostrum is rich in insulin-like growth factors IGF-I and II, thus the dietary effects of recombinant human (rh) rhIGF-I on the newborn were of interest. The objective of this study was to examine the effects of dietary IGF-I upon selected blood components and gut absorptive development. Calves were blocked by birth weight and fed two times per d for a total of four times with the initial restricted diet. The initial feeding was 1.5 l and the remaining three feedings were at 2 1 with one of three experimental diets: 1) milk replacer plus isolated colostrum derived globulins (MR−), 2) same as 1 above plus 750 ng/ml rhIGF-I (MR+), 3) pooled cow colostrum (COL). Thereafter, all animals received only milk replacer at 5% of body weight (BW)/feeding two times per d with only treatment 2 having continued addition of 750 ng/ml rhIGF-I until experimental completion at 6 to 7 d after birth. At feeding three, animals were fed D-xylose (0.5 g/kg BW) and 5,000 U of bovine kidney membrane γ-glutamyl transferase as indicators of gut absorptive capacity. Colostrum-fed animals received 5,000 U of natural occurring γ-glutamyl transferase activity in the 1.5 l first feeding. Blood samples taken over time were collected and saved as frozen plasma. All diets were analyzed for nutrient composition and endogenous levels of test hormones. Colostrum fed calves had greater globulin concentration (P < 0.01) than MR− or MR+ fed calves. Recombinant hIGF-I feeding had no effect (MR− vs. MR+) upon total protein, albumin or globulin blood levels. Absorption of colostrum γ-glutamyl transferase at first feeding resulted in a peak total blood U of 4.5% of that fed. Although enzyme absorption was greatly reduced by the third feeding (0.5% of total fed), MR+ fed calves exhibited no significant difference in enzyme absorption when compared with the controls (MR− vs. MR+). However, pharmacokinetic analysis of D-xylose absorption at the third feeding showed diet effect upon absorption of D-xylose.

为从高寒草甸优势牧草(蒿草、珠芽蓼)根际筛选具有优良促生特性的植物根际促生菌(PGPR),探寻其根际分布规律,并为后期生产应用提供支撑。采用选择性培养基法筛选根表土(RS)、根表面(RP)和根内(HP)细菌,用点接种法在选择培养基(Pikovaskaia's 培养基、蒙金娜、无氮培养基)中复筛具溶磷、固氮特性菌株;采用钼蓝比色法、气相色谱法和高效液相色谱法分别测定菌株溶磷量、固氮酶活性和分泌植物激素[PHs:吲哚乙酸(IAA)、赤霉素(GA3)、反式玉米素(t-Z)]含量。结果表明:共筛出细菌68株,复筛出溶磷固氮PGPR 43株;其中,溶解无机磷菌17株(溶磷量:9.39~94.79 μg·mL-1),溶解有机磷菌22株(溶磷量:10.37~72.82 μg·mL-1),固氮菌30株[固氮酶活性:3.79~3193.07 nmol (C2H4)·h-1·mL-1];分泌IAA菌26株(IAA含量:0.24~69.98 μg·mL-1),分泌GA3菌32株(GA3含量:0.34~68.87 μg·mL-1)和36株分泌t-Z菌(t-Z含量:0.11~47.59 μg·mL-1)。植株根际促生菌PGPR均表现出根表面RP区细菌数显著高于根表土RS和根内HP区,珠芽蓼根际筛选出的PGPR多于嵩草根际;蒿草PGPR溶解有机磷能力强于珠芽蓼根际PGPR,但溶无机磷PGPR数目和能力相反。分泌植物激素PHs菌株在能力和数量上均表现出t-Z>GA3>IAA的趋势。因此,优良溶磷菌(ZNRS2、SNRP2、ZKHP3、ZKRP1),优良固氮菌株(SKRP2、SNHP1、ZNRS3)和优良产植物激素PHs菌(SKHP3、ZNHP2、ZKRS2、ZKRP1、ZKRP2)可用于后期微生物肥料制作和相关研究,其中ZKRS2的促生功能较多,可进行深入挖掘。  相似文献

Gastric Helicobacter spp. are associated with chronic inflammation and neoplastic transformation in humans as well as domestic and laboratory species. The present study examined the association of Helicobacter heilmannii (Hhe) infection in pet cats with feline gastric mucosa associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) lymphoma. Tissues were collected via gastric biopsy or at necropsy from 47 pet cats with clinical signs of gastrointestinal disease, including vomiting and inappetance, and classified as gastritis (14/47), lymphoma (31/37), or normal (2/47). Tissues positive for argyrophilic organisms with Warthin–Starry stain (29/47) were assessed by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) for the presence of Hhe strains 1–4 as well as with a fifth probe that detected Helicobacter salomonis, Helicobacter bizzozeronii, or Helicobacter felis. A significant association of positive Warthin–Starry status with Hhe infection was found in cases of sick cats (22/29; p < 0.05 by Chi-square; χ2 = 7.034). Interestingly, a significant association between Hhe status and a diagnosis of lymphoblastic or lymphocytic lymphoma was observed as well in a subset of 24 Warthin–Starry positive lymphoma cases: of lymphoblastic lymphoma cases, 13/17 were positive for Hhe (p < 0.05; χ2 = 4.854). Hhe strains 2 and 4 were most commonly found (18/29 and 17/29, respectively) among sick cats, although a higher than expected number of cats was also positive for Hhe1, which initial reports have described as rare in cats and common in humans. The association found between a positive Hhe status with the presence of feline gastric lymphoma, especially lymphoblastic lymphoma, argues for the need to conduct prospective studies to better identify the frequency and strain distribution of Hhe infection in both healthy and clinically ill cats, particularly those cats with gastric lymphoma.  相似文献
