印度瘿蚊六新种(双翅目:瘿蚊科)

本种近似菲律宾一种稷(Panicum carinatum)上的Lasioptera paniculi Felt,但触角的节数不同,雌18节,雄16节;雌触角各节的比例不同而较短;抱器基节中等粗,端节较细。其雌触角18节也相似于印度一种稷Panicum fluitans上的L.flui-tans Felt,但触角第五节远比端节长,产卵器短得多。     

松脂瘿蚊属一新种：双翅目：瘿蚊科

松脂瘿蚊属Cecidomyia全世界已知12种,9种分布在北美和古巴,2种在欧洲,估计1或2种分布在喜马拉雅地区,此属幼虫主要取食松类枝条的树脂,有时为害球果,导致枝消或球果畸形,有的形成虫瘿;在北美寄生于多种松树,在欧洲除松类外还寄居于云、冷杉。本文报道的一新种以云南松Pinus yunnanensis Franch.为寄主。

互惠共生微生物：新资源，新技术，新机遇，新挑战

2020年9月联合国环境规划署发布《全球生物多样性展望-5》(GBO-5)报告,助力世界实现协商一致的愿景——到2050年“与自然和谐相处”。其实,原本地球上的所有生物都是相互依存、互惠共生于地球村的,尽管存在少数“坏分子”。但由于人类的贪婪,过度扩张才导致地球“千疮百孔”的面貌,严重威胁到人类文明可持续发展。通过最近20年的研究,互惠共生微生物(mutualistic symbiotic microbes,MSM)从其丰富的群落多样性到种质新资源、从多种多样的生理生态功能到作用机制、从基础探究到新技术研发,为实现人与自然和谐相处的愿景提供了新机遇,同时也面临新挑战。令人可喜的是,中国在MSM研究领域取得了令世人瞩目的成果。《微生物学通报》于2020年11期特别推出了“互惠共生微生物专栏”,旨在展现中国MSM研究的最新进展和成果,促进生物共生学的发展壮大。     

Centromere regulation: new players, new rules, new questions

Centromeres support the assembly of the kinetochore on every chromosome and are therefore essential for the proper segregation of sister chromatids during cell division. Centromere identity is regulated epigenetically through the presence of the histone H3 variant CENP-A. CENP-A regulation and incorporation specifically into centromeric nucleosomes are the matter of intensive studies in many different model organisms. Here we briefly review the current knowledge in centromere biology with a focus on Drosophila melanogaster and how these insights lead to new rules and challenges.     

Plant cell biology in the new millennium: new tools and new insights

The highly regulated structural components of the plant cell form the basis of its function. It is becoming increasingly recognized that cellular components are ordered into regulatory units ranging from the multienzyme complexes that allow metabolic channeling during primary metabolism to the "transducon" complexes of signal transduction elements that allow for the highly efficient transfer of information within the cell. Against this structural background the highly dynamic processes regulating cell function are played out. Recent technological advances in three areas have driven our understanding of the complexities of the structural and functional dynamics of the plant cell. First, microscope and digital camera technology has seen not only improvements in the resolution of the optics and sensitivity of detectors, but also the development of novel microscopy applications such as confocal and multiphoton microscopy. These technologies are allowing cell biologists to image the dynamics of living cells with unparalleled three-dimensional resolution. The second advance has been in the availability of increasingly powerful and affordable computers. The computer control/analysis required for many of the new microscopy techniques was simply unavailable until recently. Third, there have been dramatic advances in the available probes to use with these new microscopy approaches. Thus the plant cell biologist now has available a vast array of fluorescent probes that will report cell parameters as diverse as the pH of the cytosol, the oxygen level in a tissue, or the dynamics of the cytoskeleton. The combination of these new approaches has led to an increasingly detailed picture of how plant cells regulate their activities.
