  • Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China
    Country Report for the Preparation of the First Report on the State of the World’s Animal Genetic Resources Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China June 2003 Beijing CONTENTS Executive Summary Biological diversity is the basis for the existence and development of human society and has aroused the increasing great attention of international society. In June 1992, more than 150 countries including China had jointly signed the "Pact of Biological Diversity". Domestic animal genetic resources are an important component of biological diversity, precious resources formed through long-term evolution, and also the closest and most direct part of relation with human beings. Therefore, in order to realize a sustainable, stable and high-efficient animal production, it is of great significance to meet even higher demand for animal and poultry product varieties and quality by human society, strengthen conservation, and effective, rational and sustainable utilization of animal and poultry genetic resources. The "Report on Domestic Animal Genetic Resources in China" (hereinafter referred to as the "Report") was compiled in accordance with the requirements of the "World Status of Animal Genetic Resource " compiled by the FAO. The Ministry of Agriculture" (MOA) has attached great importance to the compilation of the Report, organized nearly 20 experts from administrative, technical extension, research institutes and universities to participate in the compilation team. In 1999, the first meeting of the compilation staff members had been held in the National Animal Husbandry and Veterinary Service, discussed on the compilation outline and division of labor in the Report compilation, and smoothly fulfilled the tasks to each of the compilers.

  • Plateau Wetlands, an Indispensible Habitat for the Black-Necked Crane (Grus Nigricollis) - a Review
    Wetlands (2014) 34:629–639 DOI 10.1007/s13157-014-0559-5 REVIEW Plateau Wetlands, an Indispensible Habitat for the Black-Necked Crane (Grus nigricollis) - A Review Hongtao Song & Yinsheng Zhang & Haifeng Gao & Yanhong Guo & Shengnan Li Received: 24 November 2013 /Accepted: 19 June 2014 /Published online: 6 July 2014 # Society of Wetland Scientists 2014 Abstract As a highly productive and sensitive ecosystem, wetlands (BirdLife International 2001). The existence of plateau wetlands provide indispensable habitats for Grus Grus nigricollis was unknown until 1876 due to the high nigricollis, an endangered species of crane. However, the altitude and low temperature of its habitat. In the 1980s and destruction and degeneration of plateau wetlands caused by 1990s, surveys of Grus nigricollis mainly focused on the climate change and human disturbance have influenced the birds’ overwintering sites and population counts and included habitats and biological behaviors of Grus nigricollis. Previous preliminary research into the ecology of these overwintering studies have ignored the importance of particular habitats to sites (Wang et al. 1989; Zhang and Luo 1991;LiandMa the continued existence of Grus nigricollis,especiallywith 1992;Yuetal.1993;Chen1994, 1997;Lietal.1997). Since regard to extremely fragile plateau wetland systems. In this 2000, studies have been carried out into the cranes’ individual review, the importance of plateau wetlands for the breeding, behaviors, foraging habits, reproductive behaviors and migra- overwintering and foraging of Grus nigricollis is summarized; tory routes (Li and Ma 2000;BishopandLi2002;Yangetal. the impact of human activities and climate change on Grus 2006; Gao et al. 2007;Yangetal.2007). nigricollis and on plateau wetland habitats is also presented.

  • Role of Ecological Approaches to Eliminating Schistosomiasis in Eryuan County Evaluated by System Modelling
    Dong et al. Infectious Diseases of Poverty (2018) 7:129 https://doi.org/10.1186/s40249-018-0511-7 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access Role of ecological approaches to eliminating schistosomiasis in Eryuan County evaluated by system modelling Yi Dong1†, Chun-Hong Du1†, Yun Zhang1, Li-Fang Wang1, Jing Song1, Ming-Shou Wu1, Wen-Can Yang2, Shan Lv3,4,5,6,7 and Xiao-Nong Zhou3,4,5,6,7* Abstract Background: Schistosomiasis was severely prevalent in Yunnan Province, and it is difficult to achieve its elimination by convention approaches due to complexity of the nature. We explored the comprehensive model to eliminate schistosomiasis in Eryuan County, Yunnan Province, the People’s Republic of China, through integration with the ecological protection programme in Erhai Lake, in order to promote an efficient elimination strategy. We expected that this model is able to be tailored to other local settings, which help achieve the goal of precisely eliminating the disease in Yunnan Province. Methods: Eryuan County of Yunnan Province was chosen as the study area, where the data on environmental protection activities in Erhai Lake and on the schistosomiasis control programme were collected through different departments of Erhai County government since 2015. System modelling was performed using system dynamics software to establish a simulation model in order to evaluate the effectiveness of intervention activities. Results: Ecological approaches to control schistosomiasis in Eryuan County consist of three major components: (i) implementing precise interventions to stop schistosomiasis transmission by means of controlling the source of infection, blocking the biological transmission chains and cutting off the route of disease transmission; (ii) employing ecological approaches to improve the co-effectiveness of environmental protection and schistosomiasis prevention in the study area; and (iii) strengthening the professional skills of personnel involving in the schistosomiasis control programme.
