水稻中大麦Mlo和玉米Hm1抗病基因同源序列的分析和定位

大麦抗病基因Mlo和玉米抗病基因Hm1编码的产物不具有绝大多数植物抗病基因产物所含有的保守结构域。这两个抗病基因的作用机理也不符合基因对基因学说。从水稻中分离克隆了Mlo基因的同源序列OsMlo-1和玉米Hm1基因的同源序列DFR－1。利用水稻分子标记遗传连锁图,将OsMlo-1定位于水稻第六染色体的两俱RZ667和RG424之间;Osmlo-1距离这两个分子标记分别为20．6和6．0cM(centi-Morgan)。将DFR－1定位于水稻第一染色体两个分子标记R2635和RG462之间;DFR－1距离这两个分子标记分别为11．3和23．9cM。参照已发表的水稻分子标记连锁图,发现OsMlo-1和DFR－1的染色体位点分别与两个报道的水稻抗稻瘟病数量性状位点（QTL）有较好的对应关系。结果提示,水稻中与大麦Mlo 和玉米Hml同源的基因可能也参于抗病反应的调控。     

水稻米香基因的遗传分析与精细定位

香味是水稻重要的品质性状之一,由100多种挥发性化合物组成,其中2-乙酰基-1-吡咯啉（2AP）是稻米香气中最主要的成分,且由一对隐性基因（fgr）控制,fgr基因位于水稻第八号染色体上。本研究根据初定位结果,利用籼粳稻基因组序列在RG1／RG28区域内发展高密度的分子标记,结合大分离群体来定位水稻的米香基因。结果显示,fgr基因位于第八条染色体的WJ-7和WJ-8分子标记之间约408kb的区间内。这一结果将对于水稻米香基因的克隆与分离提供了重要依据。

Isolation and characterization of a diverse set of genes from carrot somatic embryos.

The early events in plant embryogenesis are critical for pattern formation, since it is during this process that the primary apical meristems and the embryo polarity axis are established. However, little is known about the molecular events that are unique to the early stages of embryogenesis. This study of gene expression during plant embryogenesis is focused on identifying molecular markers from carrot (Daucus carota) somatic embryos and characterizing the expression and regulation of these genes through embryo development. A cDNA library, prepared from polysomal mRNA of globular embryos, was screened using a subtracted probe; 49 clones were isolated and preliminarily characterized. Sequence analysis revealed a large set of genes, including many new genes, that are expressed in a variety of patterns during embryogenesis and may be regulated by different molecular mechanisms. To our knowledge, this group of clones represents the largest collection of embryo-enhanced genes isolated thus far, and demonstrates the utility of the subtracted-probe approach to the somatic embryo system. It is anticipated that many of these genes may serve as useful molecular markers for early embryo development.     

Cereal rust fungi genomics and the pursuit of virulence and avirulence factors

Rust diseases cause significant reductions annually in yield of cereal crops worldwide. Traditional monoculture cropping systems apply significant selection pressure on the pathogen to cause rapid shifts in pathotypes. Plant breeders strive to stay ahead of the evolving pathogens by releasing new crop genotypes with new rust resistance genes or gene combinations. Owing to the limited number of known resistance genes and the lack of molecular understanding of the plant-pathogen interaction, rusts remain challenging organisms to study, both at organismal and molecular levels. This review discusses recent progress by a number of laboratories towards better understanding the molecular component of rust disease resistance.

Contrasted Microcolinearity and Gene Evolution Within a Homoeologous Region of Wheat and Barley Species

We study here the evolution of genes located in the same physical locus using the recently sequenced Ha locus in seven wheat genomes in diploid, tetraploid, and hexaploid species and compared them with barley and rice orthologous regions. We investigated both the conservation of microcolinearity and the molecular evolution of genes, including coding and noncoding sequences. Microcolinearity is restricted to two groups of genes (Unknown gene-2, VAMP, BGGP, Gsp-1, and Unknown gene-8 surrounded by several copies of ATPase), almost conserved in rice and barley, but in a different relative position. Highly conserved genes between wheat and rice run along with genes harboring different copy numbers and highly variable sequences between close wheat genomes. The coding sequence evolution appeared to be submitted to heterogeneous selective pressure and intronic sequences analysis revealed that the molecular clock hypothesis is violated in most cases.     

Toxin gene profiling of enterotoxic and emetic Bacillus cereus

Very different toxins are responsible for the two types of gastrointestinal diseases caused by Bacillus cereus: the diarrhoeal syndrome is linked to nonhemolytic enterotoxin NHE, hemolytic enterotoxin HBL, and cytotoxin K, whereas emesis is caused by the action of the depsipeptide toxin cereulide. The recently identified cereulide synthetase genes permitted development of a molecular assay that targets all toxins known to be involved in food poisoning in a single reaction, using only four different sets of primers. The enterotoxin genes of 49 strains, belonging to different phylogenetic branches of the B. cereus group, were partially sequenced to encompass the molecular diversity of these genes. The sequence alignments illustrated the high molecular polymorphism of B. cereus enterotoxin genes, which is necessary to consider when establishing PCR systems. Primers directed towards the enterotoxin complex genes were located in different CDSs of the corresponding operons to target two toxin genes with one single set of primers. The specificity of the assay was assessed using a panel of B. cereus strains with known toxin profiles and was successfully applied to characterize strains from food and clinical diagnostic labs as well as for the toxin gene profiling of B. cereus isolated from silo tank populations.     

Molecular and genetic analyses of flower homeotic genes ofArabidopsis

Recent genetic and molecular analyses usingArabidopsis has revealed basic mechanisms of floral pattern formation. Here is outlined a genetic model of flower morphogenesis. This shows that combinations of floral organ identity genes direct the organ type and the place in the flower bud. After molecular cloning of these genes, the hypothesis is supported at the molecular level. Molecular analyses of homologous genes from other plants show the same system of flower morphogenesis is shared widely among distantly related species.
