    By the principle of mathematical induction and classified
    discussion, the sharp bounds for dissection of unicyclic graphs of a
    fixed order were given. Among all unicyclic graphs of order
    $n(n\geqslant 6)$, the graph $\Delta_{n-3}$ has the minimum $a(G)$
    and $b(G)$, and the graph $K_{1,n-1}^{+}$ has maximum $a(G)$ and
    $b(G)$, where $\Delta_{n-3}$ denotes the graph obtained from $K_{3}$
    and $P_{n-3}$ by joining a vertex of $K_{3}$ to one endvertex of
    $P_{n-3}$, and $K_{1,n-1}^{+}$ denotes the graph obtained from
    $K_{1,n-1}$ by joining its two vertices of degree one.

    YAO Qing-liu
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Sc    2009, 2009 (1): 32-36.  
    Abstract3521)      PDF (214KB)(1437)      

    The existence of positive solution was studied for the
    nonlinear Sturm-Liouville boundary value problem, where the
    nonlinear term $f(t,u)$ may be singular at $t = 0,\,t = 1$. By
    introducing the integrations of height functions of nonlinear term
    on bounded set the growths of nonlinear term were described. By
    applying the Krasnoselskii fixed point theorem in degree theory and
    the dominated convergence theorems in real variable, an existence
    theorem of positive solution was proved when there are limit
    functions $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{u \to + 0} f(t,u) / u$ and
    $\mathop {\lim }\limits_{u \to + \infty } f(t,u) / u$.

    Abstract3512)      PDF (243KB)(1545)      
    Let~$X, Y$~ be Banach spaces and let $T$ be a
    densely--defined closed linear operator from $\mathcal{D}(T)\subset$
    to $Y$ with closed range. Suppose the non-consistent perturbation
    of the consistent equation $Tx=b$ is $ \|(T+\delta T)x-\bar
    b\|=\min\limits_{z\in\mathcal{D}(T)}\|(T+\delta T)z-\bar b\|, $
    where $\delta T$ is a bounded linear operator from $X$ to $Y$. Under
    certain conditions (e. g. $X$ and $Y$ are reflexive Banach spaces),
    let $\bar x_m$ be the minimal norm solution of above equation and
    let $x_m$ be minimal norm solution of the set $S(T,
    b)=\{x\in\mathcal{D}(T)\vert\, Tx=b\}$. In this paper, we give an
    estimation of the upper bound of $\dfrac{\dist(\bar x_m, S(T,
    b))}{\|x_m\|}$ when $\delta(\Ker T, \Ker(T+\delta T))$ is small
    enough.

    Four kinds of Hagen-Rothe type convolutions were defined
    by introducing denominator factors. They have no closed expressions
    themselves. Two identities due to Andrews and Burge produced other
    four convolution formulas by means of reversals and linear
    combinations. Starting from these four formulae and using Gould-Hsu
    inversions, four pairs of reciprocal formulas with respect to
    Hagen-Rothe type convolutions were established.

    X charts with asymmetric sample sizes fordefecting asymmetric Losses(Chinese)
    GUO Bao-cai;SUN Li-rong
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Sc    2009, 2009 (1): 104-110.  
    Abstract3514)      PDF (608KB)(1666)      
    In some production systems, upward and downward shifts of processes may cause different losses. To meet the need of quality control in these situations,this paper proposed two X〖DD(-*3〗〖KG*3〗—〖DD)〗 charts with asymmetric sample sizes. A Markov chain method was used to obtain their statistical properties. Numerical results indicate, for the shifts of less than 1.5 process standard deriation from the mean, that using asymmetric sample sizes is more efficient in detecting the shifts in one direction, while without missing the shifts in the other direction. Using the warning limit may speed up in detecting the shifts in one direction.

    Using BIOLOG microplate technique, the microbial diversity in root zone soils of Acacia confusa and Eucalyptus urophylla polluted by heavy metals in Guishan of Huangpu area (Guangzhou) were studied. The results show that the soil of Guishan in Huangpu area is mainly polluted by total Cd and Zn, which have the badly negative influence on soil microbial community. The worse soil condition reduces bacterial amounts, delays microbial metabolic activity, lowers microbial carbohydrates and amino acides utilization and reduces microbial diversity indexes. Bacterial amounts and Microbial diversity in root zone soils are higher than soils without plant. However, because of the heavy metal pollution in Huangpu area, the bacterial amounts, microbial substrate utilization patterns and diversity indexes in the root zone soils of Acacia confusa show no significant difference with that of Eucalyptus urophylla. While, at the late stage of incubation, microbial metabolic activity in the root zone soils of Acacia confusa increases sharply and has higher metabolic capability than other soil samples. Moreover, Acacia confusa can not only stabilize the Cu and Pb in soil, but also absorb Cd and Zn. And its nitrogen fixation can enhance soil nutrients. Therefore, Acacia confusa, a popular pioneer tree in Guangzhou, is suitable for the vegetation rebuilding in the heavy metals polluted site in Huangpu area, Guangzhou.

    Effects of implementation of TBT legislation on TBT concentrationsin marine sediments all over the world (Chinese)

    Abstract3730)      PDF (2325KB)(1689)      

    Tributyltin (TBT) used to be widely used as biocides in antifouling paints, but now has been banned in different degrees due to its harmful effects on marine ecosystems. Based on rich references, this paper analyzed relationship between legislations against TBT and concentrations of TBT in marine sediment. At least 22 countries or areas have legislations against TBT and 59.1% of them are in Europe. Most of the legislations were published before 1991. IMO legislation to ban TBT totally will come into force on September 17, 2008. In the world scale, TBT in sediment did not show significant decrease during 1986 to 2006. In contrast, TBT in sediment was a little higher after 1990s’ than before. It was mainly due to the great development of marine transportations, the limited countries with legislation and the global pollution of TBT. As for the areas with registrations against TBT, TBT in sediment usually did not decrease significantly until 4~5 years later. Partial legislation of TBT had positive effect on controlling TBT pollution in small harbors. However, TBT pollution in sediment got worse in those countries without legislation of TBT in recent years. Due to the lag effect of TBT legislation and the slow degradation of TBT in sediment, it will take more decades for TBT concentrations to decrease in sediment and water, and for a ecosystem to recover effectively. 

Judging from the whole winter, the four rivers have almost no differences in the distribution of species composition such as Chaoyang river (78 species)>Wuchaogang river (76 species)> Henggang river (74 species)> Caoyanghuanbang river (72 Species). The distribution of the four rivers in cell density and biomass are as follows respectively: Chaoyang river>Caoyanghuanbang river>Wuchaogang river>Henggang river, and Caoyanghuanbang river>Chaoyang river>Wuchaogang river>Henggang river. Chlorophyceae is the main phytoplankton, then Bacillariophyta and Cyanophyta. The contents of N and P in the four rivers are all surplus and have an obvious correlation with both the cell density and the biomass, which are negatively correlated with P, and positively with N. The four rivers were analyzed and valued with diversity indexes of nutritional status and the Caoyanghuanbang river is the best one, followed by Wuchaogang river and Henggang river, and Chaoyang river is the worst. It is found the three parameters of the diversity indexes are too ideal in assessing small urban rivers water quality, and they are inconsistent with that evaluation criteria of the species, cell density and biomass of phytoplankton. Therefore, it should be cautious to apply the biological diversity indexes to valuate urban rivers environment.

    Four isonitrogenous (35.5% dry matter) and isocaloric (16.8 kJ·g-1 dry matter) diets with two types (dextrin and glucose) and two levels (20% and 40% respectively) of carbohydrates were fed carps (〖WTBX〗Carassius auratus〖WTBZ〗 〖WTBX〗pengzesis〖WTBZ〗) at 2 times a day and 6 times a day respectively for 16 weeks to determine the effect of feeding frequency on the carbohydrate utilization. The initial fish weight was 3.7±0.3 g and three replicates were conducted. The weight gain rate, feed efficiency and protein efficiency ratio were improved when the feeding frequency increased from 2 times a day to 6 times a day. When the feeding frequency was 2 times a day, the fish fed the dextrin diet gained significantly more body weight than fish fed the glucose diet (〖WTBX〗P〖WTBZ〗=0.003), regardless of carbohydrate levels. Besides, the fish fed the low carbohydrate diet growth better than fish fed high carbohydrate (〖WTBX〗P〖WTBZ〗=0.003), regardless of carbohydrate types. When the feeding frequency was 6 times a day, however, there were no significant difference in body weight gain. When the feeding frequency was 2 times a day, fish fed the dextrin diet gained significantly more protein retention efficiencies than fish fed the glucose diet(〖WTBX〗P〖WTBZ〗<0.05), while no significant difference was observed when feeding frequency was 6 times a day. The retentions of lipid and energy at different frequencies followed the same general pattern as protein retention. Moreover, lipid retention in fish fed high carbohydrate were close to or more than 100%, indicating a part of dietary carbohydrate was transformed to body lipid. The body lipid increased significantly when the feeding frequency increased from 2 times a day to 6 times a day, and when the feeding frequency was 6 times a day, the body lipid of fish fed diet HG lower than that of fish fed other diets. The body protein, ash and moisture weren’t affected by dietary carbohydrate types or levels, nor feeding frequencies. The glycated hemoglobin was higher in fish fed high carbohydrate diet than fish fed low carbohydrate diet(〖WTBX〗P〖WTBZ〗<0.001), however, no significant difference was observed in plasma triglycerides and total cholesterols. These results indicated that high feeding frequency improved the carbohydrate utilization by 〖WTBX〗Carassius auratus〖WTBZ〗 〖WTBX〗pengzesis〖WTBZ〗. The reason might be related with weakened or eliminated the shift in metabolic flux induced by high blood glucose.

    At3g23140 is a transcription factor with one single C2H2 zinc finger domain, containing C2H2 zinc finger domain in Nterminal regions and a Cterminal EARmotiflike sequence. Two different fragments of 〖WTBX〗〖STBX〗At3g23140〖STB3〗〖WTBZ〗 that only contain the C2H2type zincfinger domain were inserted downstream of 35S promoter in the plant expression vector pMON530, and introduced into wildtype Landsberg erecta (Ler). Independent homozygous transgenic lines were obtained after selection of T3 progenies. Ethylene detection results showed that endogenous ethylene value of 35S::〖WTBX〗〖STBX〗 A2〖STB3〗〖WTBZ〗 transgenic plants was less than that of the control, which was consistent with the phenotype of〖WTBX〗〖STBX〗 cs16966〖STB3〗〖WTBZ〗, but endogenous ethylene value of transgenic plant 35S::〖WTBX〗〖STBX〗 A1〖STB3〗〖WTBZ〗 has no significant difference with that of the wildtype.

    Abstract2952)      PDF (1319KB)(1682)      
    This paper investigated the associations between central neuromedin U (NMU) receptor 2 (NMU2R) and melanocortin (MC) receptor pathway (MCR3/4) in regulation of food intake and energy homeostasis. NMU, the endogenous ligand of NMU2R in hypothalamus, and SHU9119, a highaffinity antagonist of MCR3/4 pathway, were intracerebraventricularly (ICV) administrated to the fasting and nonfasting rats. The effects of NMU2R on feeding behavior and body weights and their relationships with the role of MCR3/4 signaling were evaluated in the absence or presence of SHU9119 in the rat. The results showed that ICV administration of NMU significantly decreased the food intake as observed at different time points. The anorexigenic effect of NMU was partially inhibited by ICV coadministration of NMU and SHU9119. Furthermore, ICV injection of NMU showed a similar pattern of reduced anorexigenic effect of NMU in SHU9119pretreated rats. These results suggest that functional agonism of NMU2R by NMU in the central nervous system can effectively regulate feeding behavior and energy homeostasis. The central modulation of NMU2R on feeding behavior is associated, at least in part, with melanocortin receptor pathway.

    Eleven groups of results on activities of 210Pb from IAEA(International Atomic Energy Agency)for international comparison were analyzed to discuss the difference between two methods for 210Pb analysis: alpha and gamma spectrometry techniques. Consistence of the results by two techniques was discussed through linear regression analysis; consistence of the results by the same technique among different laboratories was also discussed; their availabilities and utilization ratios were compared, and then factors that influenced consistence and availabilities were discussed. Results showed that, there was a good agreement and strong linear correlation in the average results using two different techniques; however, there was significant difference among laboratories even using the same technique. Relatively, availability of results using alpha technique was higher than that of gamma spectrometry technique, but laboratories using gamma techniques were increasing annually. Low activity of 210Pb would affect consistence among laboratories negatively, especially for gamma techniques. Therefore, it was suggested that laboratory quality controls should be enhanced and comparisons among international and national laboratories should be put in an important place in order to improve the analysis quality of 210Pb and comparability among laboratories.

In order to figure the effect of road to cropland in urbanization quantificationally, BP ANN (Back Propagation Artificial Neural Networks) was used to simulate the process of invasion and occupation of urban expansion in Zhangjiagang city. The results indicated that the probability of change from cropland to urban increased as high as 12% inside the range of 500 m around the road, and the impact of road to surrounding cropland reach the farthest to 2 000 m away. When -0.3<NDBI<0.5,the cropland neighboring the road was more easily transformed to urban. Finally, increasing training points of BP ANN could avoid the network to get into local minimum point defects.

    Three oil spill models were briefly reviewed. And based on the analysis of problems and defects existing in “Oil Particle” approach, a “TwoStep” method was put forward for oil spill simulation. The method divides oil spill movement into two steps: selfexpansion and turbulent expansion. The former step was handled by refinement of Fay’s equations, while the latter was handled by “Oil Particle” approach. Numerical experiment results show the “TwoStep” method can make up the shortcomings of “Oil Particle” approach and accords with the reality that spilled oil has different diffusion mechanism in the process of movement. 

The salt transport changing trend is similar to the heat. According to the wavelet analysis of 1990-1999 simulating results, the transport to the East China Sea has a period of 4 to 7 years, and is negatively correlated with the nino 3.4 index. While the South China Sea transport’s period is 3 to 4 years, and also shows certain correlation with EL Nino.

    Base on the Hybrid Coordinate Ocean Model (HYCOM), this paper simulated the three dimensional dynamic and thermologic structure of the North Pacific Ocean from 1981 to 2001. After verifying the validation of the model results, the mixed layer depth (MLD) field and its seasonal variation in Japan/East Sea (JES) as well as the interannual variation were analyzed. The analysis shows that there exists strong seasonal and interannual variations of MLD in JES; which can be seen as one of the noticeable hydrological phenomena there. The MLD is deeper in winter and shallower in summer. The variable range is from 10 meters to 100 meters. There exists both similarity and difference between seasonal and interannual variations of MLD in JES. The analysis shows that the topography, the current, the monsoon and the temperature gradient in JES work together, making the variation of MLD in JES.

An OBS3A and a LISST100 (Type B) were used together with sufficient water samples to estimate the settling velocity of suspended sediments. Based on the results of measured relationship between the average floc size and floc density, improvement on the original approach was implemented to relax the basic assumption: (1) floc density are the same for all floc size; (2) the volume of void water was included. Thus a better settling velocity of suspended sediment can be estimated.

The model was first calibrated and verified using field data. The variations in the velocity distribution and water surface level were then simulated for the conditions of different flow discharges and different depths of sand mining. The model was also used to forecast the change of the reach and the sedimentation efficiency in mining areas after sand mining through selected typical flow and sediment conditions. The results provide necessary information for quantifying effects of sand mining at different scales.

The results indicate that, during flooding period, the scour depth of piers of Yudang Bridge is comparatively serious; so it is necessary to take protecting measures for piers. In addition, influence factors about the maximum scour depth of bridge piers are discussed, and then the conclusion is put forward that actual scour depth of piers hardly reach the calculated amount.

    Abstract3416)      PDF (1501KB)(2664)      

    In this paper, the nonparametric MannKendallSneyers test was used to analyze the stationarity of the annual streamflow records of Baoqing hydrological station and Caizuizi hydrological station in Naoli River watershed from 1956 to 2005. The empirical model which shows the relationship between rainfall and streamflow was established, and the model was used to assess the impacts of climate changes and human activities on annual streamflows. The result shows that the whole period of annual streamflows from 1956 to 2005 can be divided into two phases: baseline period (1956—1967) and changed period (1968—2005). During the changed period,the interannual and intraannual variability of streamflows changed significantly, and the interannual variability of streamflows was mainly caused by human activities, about 40 percent was caused by climate changes.

    Abstract3031)      PDF (2071KB)(2260)      
    Two kinds of snows, called systematic snow and cold outbreak snow, at northern Shandong Peninsula were identified by using EOF (empirical orthogonal function). Forming mechanism of coldoutbreak snow, namely cold snow, discussed climatically. The favorable circulation pattern is lowlevel strong cold advection accompanied by deepening trough with NNW flow strengthening. Then heat flux and water vapour from the sea, as well as lowlevel stratification instability play an important role. The results show that thermal regime and evaporation in December in a year provide more advantaged capability for local snow, as accords with the observational facts. It is baroclinic boundary layer and land friction and orographic forcing that strengthen convection, so that peculiar spacial snow pattern forms at Shandong Peninsula. Further study shows that lowfrequent inner gravity wave is one of important dynamical factors which are able to inspire convection and organize snow.

    In this paper, in case of fractal properties of river bed and the calculation method of fractal dimension, the fractal principle, technology of Geography Information System (GIS) and theory of river bed evolution were combined. Firstly, the attitude data was automatic extracted from the underwater geographical map by the programming, and the GIS software was used to build the river bed surface DEM. Then the Projection Covering Method was improved to calculate fractal dimension of the bed surface with the DEM. At last, the physics conception was discussed by the comparison among the fractal dimensions of each reach in different periods. This research show that this calculated method is effective and accurate, and supplies a new way to calculate fractal dimension of bed surface. Meanwhile, the bed surface fractal dimension varies with the time and space. It can be used to describe the undulating degree of bed scouring and sedimentation quantitatively, and the fractal dimension is correlation with river regime and pattern. This method and conclusion are valuable to river evolution and river mechanics.

Also, the composite was characterized by XRD, TEM, SEM, IR, UV-Vis and ESR. We studied on the photocatalytic property of ZnO nanorod and its composite under visible light, and evaluated the effect of preparations using methyl orange(MO) as a probe reaction. The experiments showed the optimum conditions for preparing this composite are: the mass ratio of ZnO nanorod and PVC is 1∶1, calcined temperature is 250 ℃ and calcined time is 1 h. Otherwise, the composite can degrade MO up to 88% under illumination with 15 W home light for 3 h when the concentration of MO is 10 mg/L, and the dose of photocatalyst is 0.5 g/L. The results above indicated that ZnO nanorod/PVC composite has good photocatalytic property under visible light.

    A highly sensitive and stable glucose sensor based on the synergic action of multi wall carbon nanotube (MWCNTs) and ZnO nanoparticles was developed. Glucose oxidase (GOx) was firmly immobilized on the ZnO nanoparticles surface due to their large difference in the isoelectric point (IEP), while the ZnO nanoparticles were deposited on the negatively charged MWCNTs layer. A cationic polydiallyldimethylammonium chloride (PDDA) layer was coated on the GOx layer. The unique sandwich-like layer structure (PDDA/GOx/ZnO/MWCNTs) formed by self-assembling provides a favorable microenvironment to keep the bioactivity of GOx and to prevent enzyme molecule leakage. Amperometric detection of glucose was carried out at 100 mV (vs. Ag/AgCl) in 0.05 mol/L phosphate buffer solution (pH 6.8); a wide linear response range of 0.1 to 16 mmol/L was measured by a sensor with 0.5 units GOx; a sensitivity of 50.2 mA&#8226;cm-2&#8226;mol-1 and a detection limit of 250 nmol/L (3σ) were measured by a sensor with 2.0 units GOx. Results obtained from the glucose sensor directly in human blood serum were compared with ones obtained by spectrometry by a local hospital. On testing 100 samples of serum, the correlation coefficient reaches 0.997.

    This paper focused on the ecological benefits of the near-natural forest in Pudong Shanghai, and contrasted it with the evergreen broad-leaf forests in Tiantong National Park and also with plant communities in urban areas. Several indices were selected in the investigation, including concentration of air anion, air temperature and humidity, air microorganisms and soil microorganisms. We got the following results. The air anion in near-natural forest were much higher than that in the contrast communities in urban areas, but much lower than that in the evergreen broad-leaf forests in Tiantong National Forest Park. The distribution of air bacteria, air fungus, and air actinomycete were definitely different. The average of air bacteria concentrations of urban near-natural forest was lower than contrast sample plots, but air fungi and actinomycete was higher. Near-natural forest was approaching natural forest better than contrast plant communities in urban area by its numbers of soil microorganisms.

The results showed that the areas with higher OM and TN were mainly distributed in Chengqiao town and Bao town, and the values of both indices declined gradually towards northwest and northeast. The distribution trends of AP and AK were basically complementary. When comparing the values of 1980 and 2007 in terms of all these indexes, OM and TN did not change significantly, whereas AP increased rapidly and AK decreased. The results further revealed the unbalance in soil fertilization.

    Firstly, the errors were assumed to be uniformly dependent in normal-normal cases and the Bayes premiums were derived in this model which show that it is the exact credibility. Secondly, the Bühlmann’s credibility models with uniform dependence were built, and the corresponding credibility estimators were derived. In addition, the models were extended to Bühlmann-Straub credibility in which the natural weights among contracts were introduced. However, the credibility estimators of individual premium under Bühlmann-Straub model have only the generalized form of "credibility".

    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Sc    2009, 2009 (6): 1-11.  
    Abstract3069)      PDF (1016KB)(559)      
    At present, urban green space construction should weight evenly between ecological-landscape effects and the establishment-management costs, and should take into consideration of saving requirement. It was necessary to establish the assessment system for plant community’s construction and improvement. A 4-leveled index assessment system was set based on indices which were selected according to Delphi expert consultation method, with all the weight calculated by Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) method. Then, the assessment system was applied to evaluate the green space plant communities in central Shanghai. The result showed that: due to low near-nature degree and a costly management, 51.4% of all the plant communities failed to meet the standard that ecological benefit should be in coordination with landscape benefit. To solve problems, new construction methods were introduced. In the construction of urban green space plant community, native species should be used to build the near natural plant community. The adoption of native species reflected the regional characteristics as well as the “land-mark” of the given region or city. What’s more, in order to reduce the management cost, the near natural management method was also recommended.

    Abstract2810)      PDF (2277KB)(692)      
    The dynamics of species composition and diversity, population structure and height growth rate of understory vegetation in the Metasequoia glyptostrobodies plantations abandoned for 5, 8 and 12 years in the campus of East China Normal University has been studied in this paper. The results indicated as follows. (1) The species diversity decreased after abandoned. (2) Understory vegetation mainly distributed on the layer of 0-1.5 m and 1.5-3.0, in which the main species is Trachycarpus fortunei due to rich seeds sources. (3) The population structure pattern shifted from sporadic type to unimodal type, and its restoration has been changing into deflected succession. And (4) Trachycarpus fortunei and Ligustrum quihoui with the character of shade-tolerant have fast height-growth rate. It is suggested that the habitat,the seed resources and the seed dispersal pattern were the key limitation of understory vegetation restoration.

    Abstract2673)      PDF (1605KB)(2139)      
    This paper investigated the protective effect of carnosine on cisplatin (CDDP)-induced acute nephrotoxicity in KM mice and the possible plausible mechanism. Forty female KM mice were classified into four groups by weight: control group, carnosine group, CDDP modal group and carnosine prevention group. Normal group and carnosine group were given saline and carnosine intraperitoneally, once daily for 10 days; CDDP modal group was given CDDP intraperitoneally, single dose at the 5th day; carnosine prevention group was given carnosine intraperitoneally, once dialy for 10 days and single dose of cisplatin at the 5th day. All animals were decapitated at the 10th day, blood serum was collected and analyzed for blood urea nitrogen (BUN) and creatinine (CRE), the kidney samples were stored for the analysis of malondialdehyde (MDA), glutathione (GSH), superoxide dismutase (SOD) and the renal morphology changes by hematoxylin-eosin (HE)staining. As a result, the contents of serum BUN, CRE and kidney tissue MDA in the CDDP group increase significantly, while the contents of kidney tissue GSH and SOD decrease strikingly, severe morphology changes is clearly seen. The carnosine prevention group can effectively improve this phenomenon. In conclusion, carnosine can attenuate CDDP-induced acute nephrotoxicity, and the mechanism may be closely involved in antioxidation and scavenging of free radicals.

    Abstract2557)      PDF (2726KB)(1628)      
    A pair of degenerated primers was designed based on the conserved region of UCP2 among human, mouse, horse and dog. Then, cDNA fragments encoding the complete coding domain sequence (CDS) of UCP2 were amplified from three bat species (orders), Rhinolophus ferrumequinum (Rhinolophidae), Miniopterus fuliginosus (Miniopteridae) and Cynopterus sphinx (Pteropodidae). The CDS of UCP2 from three different bat species contain 930 bp encoding 309 amino acids. The deduced amino acid sequence of bat UCP2 consist three signature motifs of mitochondrial transporter protein and UCP-specific sequences. Our results showed that UCP2 gene of bats and other mammals shared high homology (90.6% to 97.0%). Evolutionary analysis indicated that UCP2 gene is highly conserved and has undergone strong purifying selected pressure during the evolution of mammals (ω=0.063). In addition, by comparing the difference of selected pressure on UCP2 between bats and other mammals, non-hibernating bats and hibernating bats, no significant difference was identified (P>0.05). Taken together, all these data proved that UCP2 has an effect on the regulation of energy metabolism of mammal evolution. The mechanism of metabolic regulation of UCP2, however, remains unclear and further investigation is needed to clarify this process.

    Dietary vitamin B6 requirement of junvenile Chinesemitten crab, Eriocheir sinensis (Chinese)
    WANG Yue;SUN Xin-jin;CHEN Li-qiao;LI Er-chao;YE Jin-yun
    Journal of East China Normal University(Natural Sc    2009, 2009 (6): 47-55.  
    Abstract2991)      PDF (1239KB)(2333)      
    The basal diet was formulated using vitamin B6-free casein as the protein source. Eight graded levels (0, 10, 30, 60,100,150,200 and 400 mg vitamin B6 per kg diet) of vitamin B6 were added to the basal diet. Each diet was fed to three replicate groups of E.sinensis (2.12±0.56) g for 10 weeks. Results showed that there were no significant differences in survival, weight gain, and the content of water and ash among crabs fed different diets. But protein utilization ratio (PUR) increased significantly with the increase of dietary vitamin B6. The highest PUR was found in crabs fed diet with 100 mg vitamin B6 per kg diet. Patterns of the content of crude protein and crude fat were similar to that of PUR. Crabs fed 100 mg vitamin B6/kg diet had a significantly higher protein and fat content than that fed 0 and 400 mg vitamin B6 per kg diet. Besides, different dietary vitamin B6 content also had significant effect on the activities of hepatopancreas glutamate pyruvate transaminase (ALT) ,while no significant difference was observed in glutamate aspartate transaminase (AST). But they both increased with the increase of dietary vitamin B6. The maximum hepatopancreas ALT activitiy was observed in crab fed the 100 mg vitamin B6 per kg diet, and was significantly higher than all the other, except 30 mg vitamin B6 per kg diet groups.
    Combined, results in this study indicated that through stimulating the activity of transaminase, vitamin B6 could assist the anabolism of protein, and then improved the accumulation of body protein and fat in crabs. Broken-line regression analysis showed that the optimum dietary pyridoxine requirement for maximum PUR and hepatopancreas ALT activity of E. sinensis under these experimental conditions was 81.675-85.74 mg pyridoxine per kg diet.

    Abstract3115)      PDF (2374KB)(1936)      
    This study was undertaken to assess the impact of particle size distribution on the heavy metal concentrations and chemical fractions in urban surface dusts in Shanghai. The result showed that there was 47.4% of surface dusts under 75 μm, higher than other fractions. It showed obvious difference in the spatial distribution of heavy metals in urban surface dusts, Zn had the highest concentration in the commercial district, while Cr in the industrial district and Pb in the residential district. Heavy metals were mainly existed in the smaller particle size fractions and the 75 μm part contained the highest concentration. A five-step sequential extraction of urban surface dusts showed that Zn occurred predominantly in the carbonate bound fraction and reducible fraction, while Cr was the highest in the residual fraction and Pb in the reducible fraction. Considering the exchangeable and carbonate fractions, the comparative mobility of the metals in urban surface dusts probably decreased in the following order: Zn> Pb> Cr.

    Abstract3321)      PDF (1202KB)(2297)      
    In recent years, ancient trees of Cryptomeria japonica var sinensis in Western Tianmushan are declining due to attacks by diseases and insect pests, which were believed to be triggered by acid deposition. The physical and chemical features of soils to provide references for this opinion was analyzed. In this study, soil samples were collected along altitude from 350 m to 1 350 m, with the interval of 200 m. At each sampling site, soil samples were collected from three layers. Soil texture, humidity, bulk density, pH value, organic matter content, contents of total nitrogen and total phosphor were analyzed. Generally, percentage of coarse particles, soil humidity and organic matter content increased with increasing altitude. Soil bulk density and pH value had a declining trend with the increase in altitude. Total nitrogen and phosphor contents had no constant trend along altitude. Compared to the data of 1986 and 1995 years, significant decrease in pH value was observed, indicating a trend of acidification. The observed soil acidification provides evidence for the rapid decline in ancient trees of Cryptomeria japonica var. sinensis triggered by acid deposition.

    Using the topographic data of 1918 and 6 remote sensing images in different times from 1965 to 2006, 7 urban river distribution maps of downtown Shanghai were derived in this research. The spatio-temporal evolution of urban river system and its impacts on the environment were analyzed based on GIS and spatial analysis techniques. The main results include: (1) From 1918 to 2006, the quantity of rivers in downtown Shanghai has decreases from 1 018 to 184, correspondingly the areas of them have shrunk from 37.68 km2 to 15.26 km2. (2) The meander-cutoff and obstruction of river are two major manners of the river system reduction. And the trend of urban river system diminishment is from the center to the surrounding. (3) The primary driven force of urban river system evolution is human activity, such as constructions of buildings and roads, and cropland degradations. (4) The evolution of urban river system disrupts the system’s water storage capacity, and weakens its urban heat island effect. Based on the analysis, several suggestions were proposed for the future planning.
