An enriched environment is widely used to improve domestic animals’ welfare and promote their natural behaviors. Music can reduce abnormal behavior in humans, nonhuman primates, and rodents. However, little is known about the effects of music on pigs. This study aims to explore the effects of repeated music stimulation on the behavior, physiology, and immunity of growing pigs. A total of 72 hybrid piglets (Large White × Duroc × Minpig) were randomly divided into three groups, including music (Mozart K.448, 60 to 70 dB), noise (recorded mechanical noise, 80 to 85 dB), and control (natural background sound, <40 dB), and 6 h sound stimulation was given per day (1000 to 1600 hours) from 40 to 100 d of age. The behavioral activities of the pigs were observed during the music stimulation, and their serum cortisol, salivary cortisol, and serum immune indices were also measured. Compared with the control group, the music group and noise group increased activity but decreased lying of pigs (P < 0.05). A significant increase in tail-wagging, playing, and exploring behaviors of pigs was found in the music group (P < 0.05), and the noise significantly increased the aggressive behavior of the pigs (P < 0.05). Tail-wagging, playing, exploring, manipulating, and aggressive behaviors decreased over time. Short-term (8 d) music stimulus had a lower cortisol level than that of the noise and control groups (P < 0.05), whereas long-term (60 d) music stimulus increased immunoglobulin G (IgG), interleukin-2 (IL-2), and interferon-gamma (IFN-γ) levels (P < 0.05) and decreased interleukin-4 (IL-4) level (P < 0.05). Long-term noise stimulus significantly reduced the level of IgG (P < 0.05) but did not affect the level of IL-2, IL-4, and IFN-γ levels (P > 0.05). In conclusion, short-term music stimulus (8 d) reduced the stress response, whereas long-term music stimulus (60 d) enhanced the immune responses. In addition, the noise increased the aggressive behavior, and long-term noise reduced the immunity of the growing pigs.  相似文献   

云南省部分养殖场鸡传染性贫血病毒核酸检测及VP2基因序列分析     

王斌  张振兴  宋建领 《中国动物检疫》2021,38(10):27-29

为了解云南省鸡传染性贫血病毒（chicken anemia virus，CAV）的流行及其VP2基因变异情况，2017—2020年，在昆明市、楚雄州、大理州、红河州、玉溪市等家禽养殖密集区的89个鸡场，采集422份疑似病鸡肝脏样品，通过PCR方法检测CAV核酸。结果显示，检出阳性245份，平均阳性率为58.06%；不同年份的CAV核酸阳性率为53.61%~60.91%，不同区域核酸阳性率为51.68%~63.52%。对3份CAV阳性样品进行VP2基因序列分析，发现核苷酸序列同源性为99.6%~99.8%，与参考毒株1852TW和N7的核苷酸同源性为99.6%~99.8%，均属于GroupA分支。结果表明：云南省普遍存在CAV感染，且感染较严重；VP2基因仍可作为PCR病毒核酸检测的首选目标基因。通过加强鸡群CAV监测，淘汰阳性鸡群和结合疫苗免疫，可减少该病造成的损失。  相似文献

以5种地被植物为试材,采用盆栽控水模拟干旱胁迫(连续干旱0、5、10、15、20 d),分别测定5种地被植物的叶片相对含水量(RWC)、电导率(REC)、丙二醛(MDA)、可溶性蛋白质含量(SPC),并利用隶属函数分析、相关性分析、主成分分析、聚类分析、逐步回归分析对其抗旱性进行综合评价及抗旱指标筛选,以期为太原市园林地被植物的合理养护和筛选应用提供参考依据.结果表明:干旱条件下,不同生理指标所反映供试植物的抗旱性不同,且部分指标之间呈显著相关.主成分分析将12个单项指标归纳成3个综合因子,分别为伤害程度因子、叶绿素因子、水分状况和光化学效率因子,代表了抗旱性97.422％的数据信息,"金冠"玉簪和德国鸢尾分别在3个主因子上抗旱性最强.通过聚类分析,将5种地被植物分为3类,其中"金冠"玉簪、德国鸢尾和八宝景天归为抗旱型类群.逐步回归分析表明,RWC、离体叶片失水速率(RWL)、SPC和PSⅡ最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)可作为评价参试地被植物抗旱性的重要指标.  相似文献

为了探究不同施肥处理对马铃薯农田土壤理化性状及产量的影响,试验地采用马铃薯连作模式,设置3个施肥处理,即：单施化肥(T)、有机肥配施化肥(YTF 1/2)、全量有机肥(YTF)。结果表明：在不同施肥处理下马铃薯农田土壤的理化性质和马铃薯产量发生了变化,其中变化最为明显的土壤指标有土壤容重、孔隙度、饱和导水率、有效磷。YTF处理较T处理可分别显著(P<0.05)降低土壤容重16.8%,增加土壤孔隙度12.7%,提升饱和导水率25.3%。YTF处理可显著提升土壤有效磷含量43.0%,但各处理间土壤pH、有机碳、全氮、全磷、碱解氮、速效钾之间差异并未达到显著水平。同时,较之T处理,YTF处理亦可显著提升土壤团聚体含量。YTF和YTF 1/2处理可分别较T处理提升马铃薯产量24.6%和12.8%。因此,施用有机肥不仅可以改善土壤结构,改良土壤物理性状,亦能促产增收。  相似文献

旨在满足马铃薯生产中茬口衔接、机械化生产技术应用、不利气候下稳产等对马铃薯出苗早、齐、壮的需求,以‘费乌瑞它’为供试品种,用基于有益活菌或工程菌提取物的5种生物制剂进行种薯处理,对多重性状进行了对比分析。5种生物制剂较常规化学制剂,均能够不同程度地促进种薯萌芽和芽根同生,出苗期提前2~7天,播种后49天的出苗率提高3.33%~17.78%。其中,表现最好的为酵母核苷酸衍生物和VDAL,种薯萌发和生根均显著高于对照。霜冻后,生物剂拌种处理在恢复前期促进植株生长,由此促进恢复后期的块茎发育,较常规化学处理增产8.39%~24.03%,体现了不同程度的保产效果。多马道黑、酵母核苷酸衍生物、根肽和VDAL体现出较好的保产效果,可作为种薯处理剂投入马铃薯生产。  相似文献

以2个芸豆品种(耐盐碱性较强的"HYD"和耐盐碱性较弱的"JW")为试材,采用土培法,将Na2CO3、NaHCO3按指定摩尔比1∶9混合后占土壤中的质量百分比设计0％(对照,T0)和0.4％(T4)2个浓度梯度,研究了盐碱胁迫对芸豆根系分泌物组分及含量的影响,以期为进一步揭示芸豆对盐碱生境响应适应的根际生态学机制、创新芸豆耐盐碱栽培调控技术提供参考依据.结果 表明:无盐碱胁迫对照"HYD"根系分泌物pH和电导率均显著(P＜0.05)低于"JW".在盐碱胁迫处理后,2个品种根系分泌物pH与电导率均有所增长.在各处理芸豆根系分泌物中检测到4种有机酸和17种游离氨基酸,且不同品种的根系分泌物组分相同.盐碱胁迫显著改变了"HYD"和"JW"根系分泌物中有机酸含量,其中分泌量最多的是乙酸.在相同处理下,"HYD"根系分泌物总氨基酸和可溶性总糖含量均高于"JW".相比于"JW","HYD"释放有机酸和氨基酸能力较强,可有效改变并调节pH和电导率,进而改善盐碱根际环境.  相似文献   

Compatibility of root growth and tuber production of potato cultivars with dynamic and static water‐saving irrigation managements          下载免费PDF全文

The important root characteristics of root length density (RLD) and root mass density (RMD) generally differ among irrigation managements and potato cultivars. The objective of this study was to investigate the RLD and RMD variations and their functional relationships with gross potato tuber yield for two commercial potato cultivars, Agria and Sante, under different irrigation strategies. Full irrigation and water‐saving irrigation strategies, deficit and partial root drying irrigations, were applied statically (S) and dynamically (D) based on daily crop evapotranspiration. Results showed that SPRD had significantly greater RLD (3.64 cm/cm³) and RMD (132.7 μg/cm³) than other irrigation treatments. Between the potato cultivars, Agria had significantly larger values of RLD (3.50 cm/cm³) and RMD (138.7 μg/cm³) than Sante. The functional relationship between the root growth characteristics and tuber yield showed that under water‐saving irrigations, Agria increased root mass at the expense of gross tuber yield but Sante increased root mass to maintain larger gross tuber yields. However, Agria produced more roots and gross tuber yield than Sante, and it is concluded that Agria is a more drought‐tolerant potato cultivar, which is recommended for tuber production in regions where water might be scarce. It was shown that larger root production in potatoes was associated with improved tolerance to water stress.  相似文献
