Importance of the River Teviot to Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar, rod catches in the River Tweed, Scotland     

M. HEDDELL-COWIE 《Fisheries Management and Ecology》2005,12(2):137-142

Abstract  The body mass distributions and variations in abundance of the spring and autumn catches of Atlantic salmon, Salmo salar L., were compared between fisheries above and below the confluence of the rivers Tweed and Teviot, Scotland. Significant differences between the distributions were found over three periods, one in spring and two in autumn, when salmon catches were high. Correlations were found between abundance trends for periods when distributions were similar or dissimilar. Abundance of salmon returning to the River Teviot was proportional to the main river. However, its population structure differed when abundances were high, suggesting different survival strategies. It appears that changes in the numbers returning to the river were resultant of changes in the marine rather than freshwater environment.  相似文献   

用RAPD技术筛选中国荷斯坦牛产奶量性状遗传标记   总被引：10，自引：3，他引：7  

杜立新  万海伟  王爱华  李宏滨 《畜牧兽医学报》2005,36(9):882-886

选用320条10碱基随机引物在由36头高产（305d产奶量〉8500kg）和32头低产（305d产奶量〈5600kg）中国荷斯坦牛所组成的2个DNA池间进行RAPD-PCR扩增，从中筛选出稳定性好、带型清晰且在2个DNA池间有明显差异的RAPD引物24条。用筛选到的24条引物对所有个体进行PCR检测，得到了5个与奶牛产奶量性状相关的RAPD标记，并对其中4个进行了克隆测序和SCAR标记转化以及生物信息学分析。结果表明：SCAR标记yield—s139与产奶量密切相关，应用电子克隆方法已将该标记由921bp延伸到2141bp，经同源性比较发现，此标记对应于奶牛基因组中LINEs家族中的一个重复元件，推测该元件附近可能存在与产奶量性状相关的QTLs或主效基因。  相似文献   

Markers, old and new, for examining Phytophthora infestans diversity   总被引：4，自引：1，他引：3  

D. E. L. Cooke†  A. K. Lees 《Plant pathology》2004,53(6):692-704

Late blight, caused by Phytophthora infestans , is an ongoing threat to potato and tomato crop production worldwide and considerable fundamental and applied research is conducted with the long-term aim of improved disease control. Understanding the mechanisms, processes and rates of P. infestans evolution is an important factor in predicting the effectiveness and durability of new management practices. A range of phenotypic and genotypic tests has been applied to achieve this goal, but each has limitations and new methods are sought. Recent progress in P. infestans genomics is providing the raw data for such methods and new high-throughput codominant biomolecular markers are currently being developed that have tremendous potential in the study of P. infestans population biology, epidemiology, ecology, genetics and evolution. This paper reviews some key applications, recommends some changes in approach and reports on the status and potential of new and existing methods for probing P. infestans genetic diversity.  相似文献

Evaluation of Five Most Commonly Grown Cotton Cultivars (Gossypium hirsutum L.) Under Mediterranean Conditions: Productivity and Fibre Quality     

C. Avgoulas  L. Bouza  A. Koutrou  S. Papadopoulou  S. Kosmas  E. Makridou  P. Papastylianou  D. Bilalis 《Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science》2005,191(1):1-9

Studies were conducted in four regions of central Greece (Larisa, Karditsa, Livadia, Thiva), to evaluate the productivity and fibre properties (fibre strength and fibre length) of the five most commonly grown cotton cultivars in these regions. The experiments lasted for 6 years (1995–2000). All the characteristics tested were strongly influenced by the factors ‘year’, ‘cultivar’ and ‘region’. Significant cultivar × region, year × cultivar, region × year and cultivar × region × year interactions occurred for all the characteristics studied. The cultivar Alegria had the highest seed‐cotton and lint yield, while Aria had the lowest ones. Both cultivars gave the highest mean lint percentage but the lowest mean boll weight (MBW). Alegria had the lowest fibre strength, while Aria had the highest. The Acala‐type cultivars, Acala SJ2 and Zeta 2, had intermediate seed‐cotton and lint yield, while Vered 171 had high seed‐cotton and satisfactory lint yield. The three cultivars mentioned above had the highest MBW and very good fibre strength. Positive correlation was observed between fibre strength and length. In spite of the fact that mean fibre length was statistically the same in all cultivars, it was influenced by the factor ‘year’, as a result of different weather conditions. The year 1996 was the most unfavourable one for seed‐cotton yield and MBW, because it was characterized by lower than average air temperatures and rather dry conditions for all study sites. The factor ‘region’, a combination of different climatic conditions and cultural practices, influenced significantly all the parameters studied.  相似文献

采用二次饱和D—最优设计建立了密度和N肥用量与夏直播花生产量的数学模型。进一步分析表明，密度与N肥用量呈负交互效应，肥料用量增加，花生密度可适当减少。密度与N肥用量的最优组合为每公顷播15．36万穴，施纯N99．6kg，最高产量可达到5527．0kg。公顷产量在4500~5527kg范围内的措施组合为：每公顷播15．O～18．7万穴，施纯N65．1～124．4kg。  相似文献   

小家鼠胴体重指标划分种群年龄的研究     

潘世昌  杨再学  杨秀群  归贤祥  李梅 《贵州农业科学》2006,34(Z1):18-20

对2005年1~12月在贵州省息烽县鼠情监测点捕获的258只小家鼠标本,以胴体重为指标,参照繁殖状况,用胴体重频次分配方法将小家鼠划分为4个年龄组,其划分标准为,幼年组(Ⅰ):胴体重≤6.49 g;亚成年组(Ⅱ):6.50~9.99 g;成年组(Ⅲ):10.00~13.49 g;老年组(Ⅳ):≥13.50 g。不同年龄组繁殖力差异显著,胴体重随种群年龄的增长而不断增加,各年龄组胴体重与体重、体长、尾长均呈正相关性,且与体重相关性达极显著。研究认为,采用胴体重划分小家鼠年龄是可行的,方法简便,易于操作。  相似文献   

Physiological Analysis of Yield Variation in Mungbean (Vigna radiata [Roxb.] Wilczek)     

D. B. Patel    K. R. Purohit  R. R. Shah 《Journal of Agronomy and Crop Science》1992,168(2):128-132

Two mungbean varieties, Guj-1 and PIMS-1 differing in their productivity potential, were examined to investigate their photosynthetic system at various stages of growth in relation to yield with two different dates of sowing. Vertical leaves were found to be beneficial. On the other hand, excessive leaf area during the later stages of growth may be detrimental to yield. Lower LAD at seedling stage and overall high NAR values may be reflected in higher grain yield. NAR declined as season progressed and this, in turn, may be related with increase in LAI. The grain yield was considerably more at the first date of sowing as compared to second date of sowing, the effect was being more pronounced in var. PIMS-1 . Various environmental factors recorded at two different dates of sowing and at various stages of growth indicated that these factors may have influenced the yield potential at two different dates of sowing.  相似文献
