冷冻三十年 水熊虫 复苏
font style='font-size:12px;'>
2016/1/21
日本国家极地研究所的研究人员首次将冷冻30多年的缓步动物“水熊虫”成功复苏,这将提高人们对隐生生物体长期存活机制及条件的理解。相关研究成果发表在最新一期的《低温生物学》上。水熊虫也叫水熊,是对缓步动物门生物的俗称,有记录的约有900余种,大多是世界性分布的。它们的体型极小,最小的只有50微米,而最大的则有1.4毫米,必须用显微镜才能看清。其是地球上已知生命力最强的生物,能在冷冻、水煮、风干的状态下...

2015/8/12
1995年,英国经历了200多年以来最严重的一次干旱,这导致一些蝴蝶的数量直线下降。随着气候变化预期将带来更为频繁的严重干旱,特别是在英国南部,人们正越来越担心该地区对干旱极为敏感的蝴蝶。如今,科学家发现,这些昆虫最早将在2050年发生广泛的地区性灭绝。
