2n雄配子的无融合生殖披碱草（Elymus rectisetus）减数分裂行为研究

用能自然产生2n雄配子的无融合生殖六倍体披碱草为材料,研究了无融合生殖披碱草的减数分裂行为。结果表明：2n雄配子的无融合生殖披碱草减数分裂行为较为异常。在间期细胞内经常有微核存在;在前期I,有倒位环、多介染色体等异常现象;在中期I,染色体有不等分裂的倾向;在后期I和末期I,有染色体的单极分裂（63.9%）、染色走向一极的倾向（21.7%）和多极分裂（3.3%）等现象,单极分裂的结果是不减数配子的产生。在减数分裂Ⅱ中,有高比例的二分子孢子（55.7%）和三分子孢子（23.7%）的形成,二分子孢子在发育后期也直接导致了2n配子的产生。因此,染色体的单极分裂、二分体和三分体形成这3种方式是披碱草2n雄配子的形成的主要途径。

中国产3种防己科植物细胞学研究

报道了3种国产防己科植物的染色体数目。金线吊乌龟Stephania cepharantha Hayata为二倍体2n=22,部分居群的一些个体存在B染色体;轮环藤Cyclea racemosa Oliv．为二倍体2n=24;木防己CDcculus orbiculatus(L)DC为四倍体2n=4x=52.3个种的染色体基数分别为x=11,12,13。观察了木防己的小孢子母细胞减数分裂过程,其减数分裂过程正常,且花粉粒具较高活性。     

中国跳虫染色体和雄性减数分裂的首次观察

利用整体压片法 ,对分别隶属于球角科和长角科的两种跳虫似微小球角 (Hypogastruraadex ilis (Stach ,196 4 ) )和曲毛裸长 (SinellacurvisetaBrook 1889)的染色体进行了首次观察。发现似微小球角单倍染色体数目n =7,雄性有 13条染色体 ,雌性有 14条 ,为XO型性别决定 ;曲毛裸长n =6 ,雄性 2n =11,雌性 2n =12 ,同样为XO型性别决定。还记述了雄性似微小球角的减数分裂过程 :在分裂前期 ,同源染色体进行配对 ;部分同源染色体发生交叉 ,部分仅末端相连 ;早后期Ⅰ ,当常染色体向两极移动时 ,性染色体仍滞后于赤道板中央。     

鸭跖草科杜若(Pollia japonica Thunb.)的减数分裂研究

首次对鸭跖草科杜若(Pollia japonicaThunb.)进行了花粉母细胞减数分裂观察,并重新报道了该种的染色体数目为2n=32。结果显示,减数分裂中期I构型为16Ⅱ,并且观察到次级联会现象。减数分裂后期I和后期Ⅱ存在落后染色体、染色体断片、二次分裂不同步等异常现象,统计各时期畸形率都低于10%。随机统计花粉粒活性,成熟率达到90%以上。这说明杜若的减数分裂过程基本正常,也证明了2n=32的体细胞染色体数目是可信的。     

木虱啮小蜂对枸杞、枸杞木虱的行为反应

木虱啮小蜂Tetrastichus sp.是枸杞木虱Paratrioza sinica Yang & Li若虫外寄生蜂,是控制枸杞木虱种群数量动态的重要因子之一。为查明其寻找寄主的信息素,应用四臂嗅觉仪、培养皿两种方法测定了枸杞Lycium barbarum L.的健康叶、虫伤叶、枸杞木虱若虫、若虫与叶复合体、卵与叶复合体和若虫分泌物等不同物质对木虱啮小蜂行为反应的影响。结果证明枸杞木虱若虫分泌物对木虱啮小蜂有明显的吸引作用,四臂嗅觉仪测定时有73%的雌蜂趋向分泌物材料区（P=0.0000）。枸杞健康叶, 虫伤叶及其水、正丁烷提取物, 卵与枸杞叶复合体对木虱啮小蜂无明显吸引作用。木虱若虫水提物及正丁烷提取物在培养皿中可吸引木虱啮小蜂并可引起刺探行为,但嗅觉仪测定时单独若虫并不吸引木虱啮小蜂,只有活体若虫与枸杞叶片复合体才对木虱啮小蜂有吸引作用（P=0.0004）。木虱啮小蜂通过与寄主若虫的接触,可提高其搜索效率。接触过寄主若虫的雌蜂第一次找到寄主的时间显著少于未曾接触寄主若虫的雌蜂,前者只用后者1/4的时间,说明该寄生蜂能对其寄主若虫进行学习。     

四十五种叶蝉的染色体研究（同翅目：叶蝉总科）

研究观察了45种中国雄性叶蝉的减数分裂,其中44种的核型为首次报道,染色体数目变化在2n=12～26之间,性别决定均为XO型。从叶蝉总科的组型图来看,该科染色体数目变化在2n=8～28之间,峰值为2n=18(16+XO),另外几种类型2n=16,20,22也有较高的出现频率。科内染色体数目的进化不具有明显的方向性,2n=22(20+XO)是该科的原始核型,易位导致的不均等互换可能是染色体数目进化的主要机制。从精子发生来看叶蝉总科与角蝉总科的关系较为密切,两者的共同特点是：①精母细胞体积较大,显著不同于沫蝉和蝉科;②减数分裂行为及精子变态过程相似;③染色体数目较少,染色体体积较大;④减数分裂前期具有典型的花束期,没有弥散期,因而不同于蜡蝉。但是由于叶蝉总科的染色体变异范围明显大于角蝉总科,而角蝉总科的核型相对较为保守,从核型上来说角蝉总科是比叶蝉总科较为原始的类群。     

白花丹参的核型分析及小孢子发生过程观察

对白花丹参(Salvia miltiorrhiza f.alba)进行了核型分析及小孢子发生过程观察.结果表明,白花丹参染色体数目为2n=16,核型公式为2n=16=8m+8sm,其中2条染色体具有随体,没有观察到多倍体细胞和B染色体;16条染色体在减数分裂中期I正常配对形成8个二价体,减数分裂的胞质分裂属于同时型;在白花丹参的减数分裂前期I观察到频率较高的细胞融合现象.白花丹参的核型为2B型,其花粉母细胞中的细胞融合现象为首次报道.     

栌菊木属及白菊木属的细胞学研究

对栌菊木属及白菊木属的染色体数目进行了首次报道,对栌菊木（Nouelia insignis Franch.)分布区内的10个居群进行了细胞学研究,染色体数目均为2n=54。白菊木属在中国分布的仅白菊木（Leucomeris decora Kurz)一种,对漾濞这个居群的细胞学研究表明,染色体也为2n=54。这两个属的基数可能x=9,它们可能为6倍体,结合帚木菊族已有染色体报道及形态特征,地理分布等初步分析表明：栌菊木种内分化程度小,是一自然类群;栌菊木和白菊木可能有着较近缘的联系;栌菊木可能是古老孑遗植物的后裔,为适应环境而多倍体化,得以保存下来。

【目的】了解沙地木虱跳小蜂Psyllaephagus arenarius对枸杞木虱Paratrioza sinica的寄生作用,为合理利用沙地木虱跳小蜂防治枸杞木虱提供科学依据。【方法】在室内观察了沙地木虱跳小蜂的形态和寄生特征,通过室内实验测定了其对枸杞木虱若虫的寄生偏好性、寄生功能反应、种内干扰效应和寄主识别能力,并在宁夏中宁田间调查了该寄生蜂的田间寄生特征。【结果】沙地木虱跳小蜂是枸杞木虱若虫重要的寄生性天敌,为单寄生蜂与内寄生蜂,最偏好寄生枸杞木虱4龄若虫,偏好系数为0.44±0.02,而不偏好寄生3龄和5龄若虫,且不寄生1龄与2龄若虫。寄生蜂对4龄若虫的最大寄生量、搜寻效率系数、处理时间系数分别为40.3头、0.8688和0.0243,均优于寄生3龄和5龄若虫。沙地木虱跳小蜂受到的种内干扰系数为0.3856,且对已被寄生的木虱寄主具有明显的辨别能力。沙地木虱跳小蜂田间发生期为6月下旬到9月中旬,正处于3-5龄木虱若虫第2代发生高峰期,发生期平均寄生率为44.2%±6.7%,其中寄生率顶峰为89.7%±12.2%,发生在7月4日。沙地木虱跳小蜂在植株下层寄生率是上中下3层中最高,为58.1%±6.8%;在植株西向寄生率是5个方位中最高,为51.4%±8.2%;对4龄若虫寄生率是木虱若虫龄期中最高,为69.7%±3.1%。【结论】研究表明,沙地木虱跳小蜂是具有控制潜力的寄生性天敌,人工释放该新纪录寄生蜂可有效控制枸杞木虱若虫,降低木虱为害。     

A Unique Protease Cleavage Site Predicted in the Spike Protein of the Novel Pneumonia Coronavirus (2019-nCoV) Potentially Related to Viral Transmissibility

正Dear Editor,In December 2019, a novel human coronavirus caused an epidemic of severe pneumonia(Coronavirus Disease 2019,COVID-19) in Wuhan, Hubei, China(Wu et al. 2020; Zhu et al. 2020). So far, this virus has spread to all areas of China and even to other countries. The epidemic has caused 67,102 confirmed infections with 1526 fatal cases     

Curcuminoids as inhibitors of thioredoxin reductase: A receptor based pharmacophore study with distance mapping of the active site

Curcumin is the yellow pigment of turmeric that interacts irreversibly forming an adduct with thioredoxin reductase (TrxR), an enzyme responsible for redox control of cell and defence against oxidative stress. Docking at both the active sites of TrxR was performed to compare the potency of three naturally occurring curcuminoids, namely curcumin, demethoxy curcumin and bis-demethoxy curcumin. Results show that active sites of TrxR occur at the junction of E and F chains. Volume and area of both cavities is predicted. It has been concluded by distance mapping of the most active conformations that Se atom of catalytic residue SeCYS498, is at a distance of 3.56 from C13 of demethoxy curcumin at the E chain active site, whereas C13 carbon atom forms adduct with Se atom of SeCys 498. We report that at least one methoxy group in curcuminoids is necessary for interation with catalytic residues of thioredoxin. Pharmacophore of both active sites of the TrxR receptor for curcumin and demethoxy curcumin molecules has been drawn and proposed for design and synthesis of most probable potent antiproliferative synthetic drugs.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Comparative morphology of the carpel in the Liliaceae: Hewardieae, Petrosavieae, and Tricyrteae

The young pistils in the melanthioid tribes, Hewardieae, Petrosavieae and Tricyrteae, are uniformly tricarpellate and syncarpous. They lack raphide idioblasts. All are multiovulate, with bitegmic ovules. The Petrosavieae are marked by the presence of septal glands and incomplete syncarpy. Tepals and stamens adhere to the ovary in the Hewardieae and the Petrosavieae but not in the Tricyrteae. Two vascular bundles occur in the stamens of the Hewartlieae and Tricyrtis latifolia. Ventral bundles in the upper part of the ovary of the Hewardieae are continuous with compound septal bundles and placental bundles in the lower part. Putative ventral bundles occur in the alternate position in the Tricyrteae and putative placental bundles in the opposite. position in the Petrosavieae. The dichtomously branched stigma in each carpel of the Tricyrteae is supplied by a bifurcated dorsal bundle.
