利用瞬间表达技术分析小麦抗病相关基因的功能

采用瞬间表达技术分析了TaTBL、TaPK1和TaTST等3个抗病相关基因的功能。首先将这3个小麦抗病相关基因构建入高效表达载体,然后使用基因枪将目标基因和GUS基因载体同时导入到感白粉病小麦品种离体叶片表皮细胞中,用GUS基因标记阳性转化细胞。转化后接种白粉菌孢子,48h后观察转化阳性表皮细胞,研究抗病相关基因表达对白粉菌入侵及吸器形成产生的影响。结果表明,这3个基因在感病小麦品种叶片表皮细胞中的瞬间表达,对白粉菌侵入和吸器形成均有部分抑制作用,在一定程度上增强了表达细胞对白粉菌的抗性。

在条锈菌侵染早期小麦初生叶内多聚核糖体水平与蛋白质合成能力的变化

小麦初生叶接种条锈菌毒性生理小种（ＣＹ２９）及其弱毒突变菌系（ＣＹ２９－ｍｕｔ３）后,呈不亲和反应的寄主叶片可溶性蛋白质合成能力在接种后２４ｈ显著高于未接种对照,但其后逐渐降低,直至接近对照;而呈亲和性反应的寄主叶片可溶性蛋白质合成在侵染早期与对照相近,但与膜结合蛋白质在９６ｈ时大大高于对照。对接种叶中核糖体的密度梯度分析证实：呈不亲和反应寄主叶片游离多聚核糖体及亲和反应的寄主内与膜结合多聚核糖体均有特异性增加。上述结果表明寄主的抗病和感病反应均与蛋白质合成能力的变化有关。     

小麦叶锈菌侵染过程的显微和超微结构

THE HOST-PARASITE INTERFACE OF ALBUGO CANDIDA ON RAPHANUS SATIVUS

The fine structure of the intercellular hyphae of the obligate parasite Albugo candida infecting radish does not differ markedly from that described previously for cells of Peronospora manshurica. The stalked, capitate haustoria do not contain nuclei and are packed with mitochondria and lomasomes. The fungal plasma membrane and cell wall are continuous from the intercellular hypha throughout the haustorium except that there is no evidence of fungal cell wall around a portion of the haustorial stalk proximal to the haustorial head. Within the vacuolate host mesophyll cell, the haustorium is always surrounded by host plasma membrane and with at least a thin layer of host cytoplasm. The host cell wall invaginates at the point of haustorial penetration to form a short sheath around the region of penetration, but normally there is no host cell wall around the balance of the haustorium. About 1% of the haustoria observed were necrotic, and these were invariably walled-off completely from host cytoplasm by host cell wall. An amorphous, moderately electron-dense encapsulation lies between the haustorium proper and the host plasma membrane and extends into the penetration region between the sheath and the fungal cell wall. Invaded host cells contain more ribosomal-rich ground cytoplasm than uninfected cells. Glandular-like systems of tubules and connecting vesicles are often numerous in host cytoplasm in the vicinity of haustorial heads. These tubules open into the encapsulation, their limiting unit membranes being continuous with the host plasma membrane. We suggest that these represent a secretory mechanism of the host specifically induced by the parasite.     

Ultrastructure of intercellular hypha and haustorium of the rust fungus,Uromyces euphorbiae

The ultrastructure of intercellular hyphae and dikaryotic haustoria of Uromyces euphorbiae, and the host response to haustorial invasion was investigated. The intercellular hyphae share common characteristics with those of other uredinial stages of rust fungi. Three types of septa were recognized inside the intercellular hypha. This study showed that the extrahaustorial membrane was possibly formed before the development of the haustorium. The periodic acid-thiocharbohydrazide-silver proteinate technique showed that the haustorial mother cell wall at the penetration site, and the haustorial wall contained more carbohydrates than other fungal structures. In addition, the neckband, present around the haustorial neck, contains different material from those of the rest of the haustorial neck wall. The close associations of host organelles, such as the nucleus, chloroplasts, mitochondria, endoplasmic reticulum and microtubules, with the haustorium, is described.     

Ultrastructural Studies of the Intercellular Hypha aud Haustorium of Puccinia recondita f.sp. tritici

The ultrastructure of intercellular hyphae and D-hati-storia of P. recondita f.sp. tritici, and the host response to haustorial invasion, was investigated. The intercellular hyphae share common characteristics with those of other uredial stage rust fungi. Anastomosis was observed between intercellular hyphae. Two nucleoli were frequently observed in a single nucleus in the haustorium, indicating possible nuclear fusion between the two nuclei in D-haustoria of this fungus. The close association of host organelles, such as the nucleus, Golgi bodies, endo-plasmic reticulum, vesicles and mitochondria, with the developing haustorium, is described.     

Anatomy of the endophyte of Viscum album L. (Loranthaceae)

Anatomy of the endophyte of Viscum album L. (Loranthaceae). An anatomical investigation into the nature of the host-parasite interaction of V. album and several of its phanerogamic hosts using SEM and light microscopy was conducted. Three kinds of parasite cell (haustorial parenchyma cells, cells resembling transfer cells and haustorial tracheids) were identified at the host-parasite interface. The terms haustorial parenchyma and haustorial tracheid are defined. Haustorial tracheids were seen to have penetrated the walls of host vessel elements and it is suggested that V. album is able to establish on a wide range of hosts because of the anatomically plastic nature of its haustorium. The development of the haustorium depends to a large extent on the nature of the surrounding host tissues. Parasite-induced host abnormalities including hypertrophy, distorted xylem elements, vessel-wall penetration and tylosis-occluded vessels were observed. The macroanatomical features observed are discussed and interpreted by-proposing a new theory for the ontogenesis of the V. album haustorium. Cortical strands with 'chisel' and 'pencil' shaped apices were both found to be present at the same time on one plant and thus were not seasonally separated.     

Ultrastructural comparison of incompatible and compatible interactions in the barley powdery mildew disease

Summary In the powdery mildew disease of barley,Erysiphe graminis f. sp.hordei forms an intimate relationship with compatible hosts, in which haustoria form in epidermal cells with no obvious detrimental effects on the host until late in the infection sequence. In incompatible interactions, by contrast, the deposition of papillae and localized host cell death have been correlated with the cessation of growth byE. g. hordei. With the advent of improved, low temperature methods of sample preparation, we felt that it was useful to reevaluate the structural details of interactions between barley andE. g. hordei by transmission electron microscopy. The haustoria that develop in susceptible barley lines appear highly metabolically active based on the occurrrence of abundant endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi-like cisternae, and vesicles. In comparison, haustoria found in the resistant barley line exhibited varying signs of degradation. A striking clearing of the matrix and loss of cristae were typical early changes in the haustorial mitochondria in incompatible interactions. The absence of distinct endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi-like cisternae, the formation of vacuoles, and the occurrence of a distended sheath were characteristic of intermediate stages of haustorial degeneration. At more advanced stages of degeneration, haustoria were dominated by large vacuoles containing membrane fragments. This process of degeneration was not observed in haustoria ofE. g. hordei developing in the susceptible barley line.Abbreviations b endoplasmic reticulum extension, blebbing - er endoplasmic reticulum - f fibrillar material - g Golgi-like structure - h haustorium - hb haustorial body - hcw haustorial cell wall - hcy haustorial cytoplasm - hf haustorial finger - hocw host cell wall - hocy host cytoplasm - 1 lipid-like droplet - m mitochondrion - mt microtubule - mve multivesicular body - n nucleus - p papilla - ph penetration site of an infection peg - pl plasma membrane - s sheath - sm extrahaustorial membrane - v vacuole - ve vesicle     

梨胶锈菌性孢子和锈孢子阶段吸器的超微结构研究

本文对梨胶锈菌性子期和锈子期菌丝吸器的形成方式、吸器及其与寄主细胞界面的超微结构进行了研究。观察结果表明：梨胶锈菌性子期和锈子期寄主胞间菌丝吸器的形成方式有两种：一种是由寄主胞间菌丝直接形成吸器;另一种是由寄主胞间菌丝先形成吸器母细胞,然后由吸器母细胞形成吸器。吸器在开始形成时只是一个乳头状的侵入楔,以后逐渐形成囊状、镰刀状、指状及其它不规则形状的吸器。多数吸器分化为颈和吸器主体两部分,在颈部及部分吸器主体外有一个由类似寄主细胞壁物质形成的领圈。吸器内部的超微结构与寄主胞间菌丝基本相同,但吸器壁比胞间菌丝或吸器母细胞的壁薄。吸器鞘的厚度随着吸器伸长膨大 而逐渐增厚。     

Ultrastructural specialization at the host-pathogen interface in rust-infected flax

Summary Ultrastructure of the association between the rust fungus, Melampsora lini, and a compatible variety of flax, Linum usitatissimum, was studied to clarify the structural relationships and interactions at the site of host penetration and at the host-parasite interface. Results of freeze-etching as well as a special section-staining procedure consisting of periodate-chromate-phosphotungstate (PACP) are shown with a host-parasite combination for the first time. The host plasma membrane is invaginated by the fungus and forms a continuous boundary around the fungal haustoria which penetrate the host cells. No morphological continuities are observed linking the protoplasts of host and fungus. With both freeze-etching and the PACP stain, the invaginated portion of the host plasma membrane at the host-parasite interface shows distinctive features that are not characteristic of the non-invaginated portion of the membrane. This localized specialization of host plasma membrane in response to the fungus appears as a significant and consistent feature of the host-parasite interaction. The host plasma membrane is separated from the haustorial wall by an amorphous layer of sheath material which covers the body but not the neck of the haustorium. This sheath provides the environment in which the haustorium exists and functions during the course of the host-parasite association. Occasionally, a collar of wall-like material derived from the host cell forms around the haustorial neck. The collar is continuous with the host wall and is distinct and discontinuous from the haustorial sheath. In fewer than 5% of the infected cells this wall material encases entire haustoria. The fungal wall is structurally specialized around the site of host penetration, and it becomes intimately associated with the host wall where the fungus penetrates into the lumen of the host cell. During penetration, the host and fungal walls appear to be fused so that the interface between them is not clearly delineated. The haustorial wall is continuous, via the haustorial neck, with the wall of the haustorial mother cell which lies outside the host cell. Different staining properties reveal this wall continuum to consist of several well-defined regions having different structure or composition. A ring of fungal wall material midway along the haustorial neck stains densely with lead citrate, but is preferentially etched away by periodic acid. The neck ring denotes a transition in the staining reaction of the fungal wall, from that present in the region of host penetration to that of the wall surrounding the haustorium. The findings demonstrate specialization of the fungal wall in the area of host penetration as well as specialization of the host plasma membrane at the host-parasite interface to a degree not previously realized from ultrastructural information.     

Nutrients for a rust fungus: the role of haustoria.

Haustoria are specialized organs that are formed within the living cell of a host by biotrophic fungal pathogens. It had been speculated that fungi obtain nutrients via the haustorium, but the actual function of haustoria was unclear. Now, sugars have been shown to pass into the haustorium from the host via a sugar transporter, a hexose-proton symport located exclusively in the haustorial plasma membrane.     

Anatomy and ultrastructure of epidermal cells in the haustorium of a parasitic flowering plant,Cuscuta japonica, during attachment to the host

Changes of epidermal cells in the haustorium of the parasiticCuscuta japonica during its attachment to the host plantimpatiens balsamina were studied with light and electron microscopy. In the transverse sections of dodder stems not in contact with the host, epidermal cells had rounded outlines. However, when haustorial initials developed in the cortex of the parasite stem at the contact site, the epidermal cells had more dense cytoplasm and conspicuous nuclei than before, and their outline was flat in the longitudinal section. As meristem cells developed from those initials, the epidermal cells became more elongated. When the haustorium was fully matured, the apical tips of the elongated epidermal cells at the contact site branched like toes, producing numerous projections via cell wall invaginations. This event caused spaces to form between the projections; coincidently, the surface area of the apical ends of the epidermal cells increased. The dense cytoplasm at those projections contained prominent nuclei and abundant other organelles, suggesting a active metabolism. Osmiophilic particles, releasing into the cell walls from the cytoplasm, were though to be associated with the loosening and elongating of the epidermal cell walls. Dense and homogeneous materials were secreted within the spaces between the projections. These materials could play an important role in cementing the haustorium onto the surface of the host organ.     

Light and Electron Microscopy of the Compatible Interaction Between Arabidopsis and the Downy Mildew Pathogen Peronospora parasitica

In this study, we focused on compatible interactions between Peronospora parasitica isolate Emoy‐2 and wild‐type (Oy‐0) and mutant (Ws‐eds1) Arabidopsis thaliana accessions by using light and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Light microscopy of compatible interactions revealed that conidia germinated and penetrated through the anticlinal cell walls of two epidermal cells. Rapid spreading of the hyphal growth with formation of numerous haustoria within the mesophyll cells was subsequently followed by profuse sporulation in the absence of host cell necrosis on both wild‐type and mutant accessions. TEM observations revealed that coenocytic intercellular hyphae ramified and spread intercellularly throughout the host tissue forming several haustoria in host mesophyll cells. Intracellular haustoria were lobed with the diameter of 6–7 μm. Each haustorium was connected to intercellular hyphae in the absence of apparent haustorial neck. The cytoplasm of the haustorium included the organelles characteristic of the pathogen. Callose‐like deposits were frequently observed at sites of penetration around the proximal region of the haustorial neck. Apart from a few callose ensheatments, no obvious response was observed in host cells following formation of haustoria. Most of mesophyll cells contained normal haustoria and the host cytoplasm displayed a high degree of structural integrity. Absence of host cell wall alteration and cell death in penetrated host cell of both accessions suggest that the pathogen exerts considerable control over basic cellular processes and in this respect, response to this biotroph oomycete differs considerably from responses to other pathogens such as necrotrophs.
