RESUMEN
Genetic maps are essential tools for quantitative trait locus analysis and marker-assisted selection breeding. In order to select parents that are highly heterozygous for genetic mapping, the heterozygosity (HS) of 24 tea cultivars (Camellia sinensis) was analyzed with 72 simple sequence repeat markers. In total, 359 alleles were obtained with an average of 4.99 per marker. The HS varied greatly from 37.5 to 71.0% with an average of 51.3%. On average, tea cultivars from Fujian Province showed a higher level of heterozygosity (59.8%) than those from Zhejiang (48.5%) and Yunnan (44.5%), and the 12 national tea cultivars were generally more heterozygous than the 12 provincial cultivars. Unweighted pair-group analysis using the arithmetic average grouping divided the 24 cultivars into 2 groups that are consistent with the morphological classification. All dual combinations of the 24 cultivars were studied to calculate the percentage of mappable markers when using pseudo-testcross mapping strategy, and results showed that this value also varied greatly from 51.4 to 90.3%. The genetic relationships and HS differences among different cultivars were discussed, and tea cultivars with high HS were recommended as cross parents for genetic mapping programs.

64 jaundiced neonates were measured with transcutaneous bilirubinometer for the jaundice index on the forehead and superciliary narch where was covered during photo therapy respectively. The result showed that the jaundice index in the uncovered place decreased greatly after the therapy was over, but the index went up again 12 hours later. The index on the covered place did not show this change. It is suggested that the covered place is a better site for measuring jaundice index because it can avoid the effect of phototherapy on the measuring result and make the result more accurate.

The polysaccharides of Saussurea involucrata Kar et Kir was first isolated and identified by us. The polysaccharides scavenged superoxide anions by nitroblue tetraazolium colorimetric method with a median scavenging concentration of 22 micrograms.ml-1 and 95% confidence limit was 19.9-24.1 micrograms.ml-1. The polysaccharides inhibited the formation of thiobarbituric acid reaction substance in mouse liver homogenate and its IC50 was 2.3 mg/g fresh liver and 95% confidence limit was 2.05-2.55 mg/g fresh liver. By ip 25 mg.kg-1.d-1 x d in mice, the polysaccharides decreased oxygen consumption by 34.4% and ip same dosage x 6 d, the polysaccharide prolonged swimming time by 1.69-fold.
