This study describes a plant regeneration system for Rosa hybrida ‘Samantha’, a mainstream commercial cultivar, via direct somatic embryogenesis. Somatic embryogenesis was induced from in
vitro-derived leaf explants, achieving a frequency of 7.5% following 8 weeks of culture on a Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium
supplemented with 3.0 mg/L 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 30 g/L glucose. We evaluated the effects of various
types and concentrations of carbohydrates and plant growth regulators (PGRs) on the proliferation and germination of secondary
somatic embryos. MS medium containing 1.0 mg/L 2,4-D, 0.05 mg/L 6-benzyladenine (BA) and 60 g/L glucose was found to be the
most effective in promoting the proliferation of somatic embryos. The highest germination rate (56.2%) of somatic embryos
was observed on MS medium containing 1.0 mg/L Thidiazuron (TDZ) and 0.5 mg/L BA. Whole plantlets were obtained by culturing
germinated shoots on rooting medium comprising 1/2-strength MS salts supplemented with 0.05 mg/L α-Naphthalene acetic acid
(NAA). Plantlets grew vigorously with normal vegetative and flowering characteristics. 相似文献

Using yeast genome databases and literature data, we have conducted a phylogenetic analysis of pectinase PGU genes from Saccharomyces strains assigned to the biological species S. arboricola, S. bayanus (var. uvarum), S. cariocanus, S. cerevisiae, S. kudriavzevii, S. mikatae, S. paradoxus, and hybrid taxon S. pastorianus (syn. S. carlsbergensis). Single PGU genes were observed in all Saccharomyces species, except S. bayanus. The superfamily of divergent PGU genes has been documented in S. bayanus var. uvarum for the first time. Chromosomal localization of new PGU1b, PGU2b, and PGU3b genes in the yeast S. bayanus var. uvarum has been determined by molecular karyotyping and Southern hybridization. 相似文献

We undertook a field study to determine whether comb cell size affects the reproductive behavior of Varroa destructor under natural conditions. We examined the effect of brood cell width on the reproductive behavior of V. destructor in honey bee colonies, under natural conditions. Drone and worker brood combs were sampled from 11 colonies of Apis mellifera. A Pearson correlation test and a Tukey test were used to determine whether mite reproduction rate varied with brood cell
width. Generalized additive model analysis showed that infestation rate increased positively and linearly with the width of
worker and drone cells. The reproduction rate for viable mother mites was 0.96 viable female descendants per original invading
female. No significant correlation was observed between brood cell width and number of offspring of V. destructor. Infertile mother mites were more frequent in narrower brood cells. 相似文献

The lipase Lip2 of the edible basidiomycete, Pleurotus sapidus, is an extracellular enzyme capable of hydrolysing xanthophyll esters with high efficiency. The gene encoding Lip2 was expressed
in Escherichia coli TOP10 using the gene III signal sequence to accumulate proteins in the periplasmatic space. The heterologous expression under
control of the araBAD promoter led to the high level production of recombinant protein, mainly as inclusion bodies, but partially
in a soluble and active form. A fusion with a C-terminal His tag was used for purification and immunochemical detection of
the target protein. This is the first example of a heterologous expression and periplasmatic accumulation of a catalytically
active lipase from a basidiomycete fungus. 相似文献

Root segments from seedlings of Panax ginseng produced adventitious roots directly when cultured on 1/2 MS solid medium lacking NH4NO3 and containing 3.0 mg l−1 IBA. Using this adventitious root formation, we developed rapid and efficient transgenic root formation directly from adventitious
root segments in P. ginseng. Root segments were co-cultivated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens (GV3101) caring β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene. Putative transgenic adventitious roots were formed directly from root segments on medium with 400 mg l−1 cefotaxime and 50 mg l−1 kanamycin. Kanamycin resistant adventitious roots were selected and proliferated as individual lines by subculturing on medium
with 300 mg l−1 cefotaxime and 50 mg l−1 kanamycin at two weeks subculture interval. Frequency of transient and stable expression of GUS gene was enhanced by acetosyringon (50 mg l−1) treatment. Integration of transgene into the plants was confirmed by the X-gluc reaction, PCR and Southern analysis. Production
of transgenic plants was achieved via somatic embryogenesis from the embryogenic callus derived from independent lines of
adventitious roots. The protocol for rapid induction of transgenic adventitious roots directly from adventitious roots can
be applied for a new Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated genetic transformation protocol in P. ginseng. 相似文献

This study was conducted to optimize different types and concentrations of amino acids on somatic embryogenesis induction,
development and maturation of leaf explants in strawberry cultivars (‘Camarosa’, ‘Paros’ and ‘Kurdistan’). Calli derived from
leaf sections were transferred onto MS medium with 1.0 mg/l 2,4-d + 0.5 mg/l BAP supplemented with 0.0, 50, 100, 150 or 200 mg/l concentrations of proline, alanine and glutamine. Stimulation
of embryogenesis and embryo development was strictly dependent on the type and concentration of amino acid in the medium.
Proline (100 mg/l) was much more effective than glutamine and alanine, on induction and development of somatic embryogenesis
in all cultivars. Cultures grown on amino acid-free medium attained lower somatic embryos than cultures grown on amino acid
treated medium. Low concentrations (50 mg/l) and high concentrations (200 mg/l) of amino acids tested were inefficient for
embryogenesis induction as well as for somatic embryos development. 相似文献

Efficient transformation of leaf disc-derived callus of Codonopsis lanceolata was obtained using Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain LBA4404 harboring a binary vector, pYBI121, that carries the neomycin phosphotransferase (npt II) gene as a selectable marker. The green shoots recovered from agroinfected explants on selection medium (containing 0.1 mg/l
α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA), 1 mg/l 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP), 100 mg/l kanamycin, and 250 mg/l cefotaxime) were rooted
on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 2 mg/l IBA and 10 mg/l kanamycin. To optimize the transformation conditions,
several factors were assessed, including the co-cultivation period, the duration of pre- and post-culture in darkness and
light, the kanamycin concentration, and the Agrobacterium densities. We produced transgenic Codonopsis lanceolata overexpressing γ-tocopherol methyltransferase (γ-TMT) by this protocol. Moreover, the α-tocopherol content of the plants was enhanced by the overexpression of this gene.

In Escherichia coli cellular levels of pppGpp and ppGpp, collectively called (p)ppGpp, are maintained by the products of two genes, relA and spoT. Like E. coli, Vibrio cholerae also possesses relA and spoT genes. Here we show that similar to E. coli, V. cholerae ΔrelA cells can accumulate (p)ppGpp upon carbon starvation but not under amino acid starved condition. Although like in E. coli, the spoT gene function was found to be essential in V. cholerae
relA
+ background, but unlike E. coli, several V. cholerae ΔrelA ΔspoT mutants constructed in this study accumulated (p)ppGpp under glucose starvation. The results suggest a cryptic source of
(p)ppGpp synthesis in V. cholerae, which is induced upon glucose starvation. Again, unlike E. coli ΔrelA ΔspoT mutant (ppGpp0 strain), the V. cholerae ΔrelA ΔspoT mutants showed certain unusual phenotypes, which are (a) resistance towards 3-amino-1,2,4-triazole (AT); (b) growth in nutrient
poor M9 minimal medium; (c) ability to stringently regulate cellular rRNA accumulation under glucose starvation and (d) initial
growth defect in nutrient rich medium. Since these phenotypes of ΔrelA ΔspoT mutants could be reverted back to ΔrelA phenotypes by providing SpoT in trans, it appears that the spoT gene function is crucial in V. cholerae.

Erwinia carotovora subspecies betavasculorum, also known as E. betavasculorum and Pectobacterium betavasculorum, is a soil bacterium that has the capacity to cause root rot necrosis of sugarbeets. The qualitatively different pathogenicity exhibited by the virulent E. carotovora strain and two avirulent strains, a Citrobacter sp. and an Enterobacter cloacae, was examined using digital analysis of photographic evidence of necrosis as well as for carbohydrate, ethane, and ethylene
release compared with uninoculated potato tuber slices. Visual scoring of necrosis was superior to digital analysis of photographs.
The release of carbohydrates and ethane from potato tuber slices inoculated with the soft rot necrosis-causing Erwinia was significantly greater than that of potato tuber slices that had not been inoculated or that had been inoculated with
the nonpathogenic E. cloacae and Citrobacter sp. strains. Interestingly, ethylene production from potato slices left uninoculated or inoculated with the nonpathogenic
Citrobacter strain was 5- to 10-fold higher than with potato slices inoculated with the pathogenic Erwinia strain. These findings suggest that (1) carbohydrate release might be a useful measure of the degree of pathogenesis, or
relative virulence; and that (2) bacterial suppression of ethylene formation may be a critical step in root rot disease formation. 相似文献

Zygotic embryos at different developmental stages were tested for their potential in the initiation of embryogenic suspensor
mass (ESM) lines using immature seeds of Pinus rigida × P. taeda. The highest frequency (1.1%) of ESM was obtained with explants from cones collected on July 1. All excised embryos of the
July 1 collection were at the early proembryo stage. Two different culture media were compared. Forty-eight ESM lines were
initiated on Pinus taeda basal medium (P6) (0.97%) with 13.5 μM 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) and 4.4 μM benzyladenine (BA). However, only
four ESM were obtained on a modified Murashige and Skoog medium (MSG; 0.55%). Most of the ESM arose from the seeds that were
at the stages ranging from late cleavage polyembryony to the early staged proembryo. Out of 52 lines (0.46%) that were produced
from 11,388 explants, only two viable lines (0.018%) (PRT11 and PRT28) survived. As for somatic embryo maturation, the highest
number (224/g−1 FW) of matured cotyledonary somatic embryos (line PRT 28) was obtained on a medium containing 100 μM abscisic acid (ABA),
0.2 M maltose, and 1.2% gellan gum. For germination of the somatic embryos, the cotyledonary somatic embryos derived from
maturation medium were transferred on half-strength Litvay medium (LM) plus 0.4% gellan gum. The germination rates were high
(71.4–96.3%) regardless of the concentrations of either ABA or gellan gum in the maturation medium. Approximately 500 somatic
plants were recovered from the germination medium and transferred to the green house; finally most of them were transplanted
successfully to the experimental field. 相似文献

Recombinant Zantedeschia aethiopica agglutinin (ZAA) was expressed in Escherichia coli as N-terminal His-tagged fusion. After induction with isopropylthio-β-d-galactoside (IPTG), the recombinant ZAA was purified by metal-affinity chromatography. The purified ZAA protein was applied
in anti-fungal assay and the result showed that recombinant ZAA had anti-fungal activity towards leaf mold (Fulvia fulva), one of the most serious phytopathogenic fungi causing significant yield loss of crops. This study suggests that ZAA could
be an effective candidate in genetic engineering of plants for the control of leaf mold. 相似文献

Summary Leaf segments of the orchid sp. Phalaenopsis ‘Little Steve’ were used as explants testing the effects of 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D; 0.45, 2.26, 4.52 μM), 6-furfurylaminopurine (kinetin; 2.32, 4.65, 13.95 μM), N6-benzyladenine (BA; 2.22, 4.44, 13.32 μM), and 1-phenyl-3-(1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-yl)-urea (TDZ; 2.27, 4.54, 13.62μM) on the induction of direct somatic embryogenesis. After 20–30 d of culture in darkness, clusters of somatic embryos formed
from leaf surfaces and wounded regions of explants on half-strength Murashige and Skoog medium supplemented with BA and TDZ.
However, kinetin had no response on direct embryo induction. In addition, 2,4-D highly retarded the frequency of embryogenesis
that was induced by TDZ. Generally, adaxial surfaces near wounded regions had the highest embryogenic competency compared
to other regions of explants. Histological sections revealed that somatic embryos mostly arose from epidermal cell layers
of the explants. Secondary embryogenesis occurred at basal parts of embryos, and originated from outer cell layers. Following
transfer of regenerated embryos onto growth regulator-free medium for 3.5–4 mo., plantlets with three to four leaves and several
roots were obtained. This protocol provides a simple way to regenerate plants through direct somatic embryogenesis, and is
suitable for further studies on embryo development and genetic transformation of Phalaenopsis. 相似文献

Verbena (Verbena x hybrida), an important floricultural species, was successfully regenerated from stem segments on Murashige and Skoog's basal medium supplemented with thidiazuron and indole-3-acetic acid. A transformation system was developed using cvs. Temari Scarlet, Temari Sakura, Tapien Rose and TP-P2. Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain Agl0 harboring the sGFP gene was infected into stem segments. Transformation efficiency was improved by evaluating and manipulating the age of the plant material, the concentration of kanamycin in the medium during selection, and the length of the culture period in the dark. After 2-3 months of culture on the selection medium, GFP-positive shoots were obtained in all four of the cultivars tested. These shoots were successfully acclimated and set flowers within 2-3 months in a greenhouse. GFP was expressed in all of the organs including the floral parts. Stable genomic transformation was confirmed by Southern blot analysis. No morphological differences were observed between the transformed plants and their host plants. 相似文献

Key message
We have successfully produced single-cell colonies of C. merolae mutants, lacking the PsbQ’ subunit in its PSII complex by application of DTA-aided mutant selection. We have investigated the physiological changes in PSII function and structure and proposed a tentative explanation of the function of PsbQ’ subunit in the PSII complex.Abstract
We have improved the selectivity of the Cyanidioschyzon merolae nuclear transformation method by the introduction of diphtheria toxin genes into the transformation vector as an auxiliary selectable marker. The revised method allowed us to obtained single-cell colonies of C. merolae, lacking the gene of the PsbQ’ extrinsic protein. The efficiency of gene replacement was extraordinarily high, allowing for a complete deletion of the gene of interest, without undesirable illegitimate integration events. We have confirmed the absence of PsbQ’ protein at genetic and protein level. We have characterized the physiology of mutant cells and isolated PSII protein complex and concluded that PsbQ’ is involved in nuclear regulation of PSII activity, by influencing several parameters of PSII function. Among these: oxygen evolving activity, partial dissociation of PsbV, regulation of dimerization, downsizing of phycobilisomes rods and regulation of zeaxanthin abundance. The adaptation of cellular physiology appeared to favorite upregulation of PSII and concurrent downregulation of PSI, resulting in an imbalance of energy distribution, decrease of photosynthesis and inhibition of cell proliferation.19.

We studied heterologous expression of xylanase 11A gene of Chaetomium thermophilum in Pichia pastoris and characterized the thermostable nature of the purified gene product. For this purpose, the xylanase 11A gene of C. thermophilum was cloned in P. pastoris GS115 under the control of AOX1 promoter. The maximum extracellular activity of recombinant xylanase (xyn698: gene with intron) was 15.6 U ml−1 while that of recombinant without intron (xyn669) was 1.26 U ml−1 after 96 h growth. The gene product was purified apparently to homogeneity level. The optimum temperature of pure recombinant
xylanase activity was 70°C and the enzyme retained its 40.57% activity after incubation at 80°C for 10 min. It exhibited quite
lower demand of activation energy, enthalpy, Gibbs free energy, entropy, and xylan binding energy during substrate hydrolysis
than that required by that of the donor, thus indicating its thermostable nature. pH-dependent catalysis showed that it was
quite stable in a pH range of 5.5–8.5. This revealed that gene was successfully processed in P. pastoris and remained heat stable and may qualify for its potential use in paper and pulp and animal feed applications. 相似文献

Previously, we have described the use of phage display to generate high affinity disulfide bond-linked T cell receptors (TCRs).
The affinities of the mutant TCRs were analysed after refolding of separately expressed α and β chains from Escherichia coli inclusion bodies. This approach is only suitable for the analysis of small numbers of TCR variants. An attractive alternative
would be soluble expression within the bacterial periplasm, but the generic production of TCRs within the E. coli periplasm has so far not proved successful. Here we show that functional, soluble TCR can be produced within the cytoplasm
of trxB gor mutant E. coli strains, with maximum yields of 3.4 mg/l. We also investigated the effect of coexpressing the folding modulators Skp and
DsbC finding that the TCR expression levels were largely unaffected by these chaperones. Importantly, we demonstrated that
the amount of protein purified from 50 ml starter cultures was sufficient to show functionality of the TCR by specific antigen
binding in both ELISA and surface plasmon resonance (SPR) assays. This TCR production method has the potential to allow rapid
and medium throughput analysis of affinity-matured TCRs selected from TCR phage display libraries. 相似文献
