高产水稻幼苗耐冷性

1998年早季在广东省农业科学院水稻研究所的人工气候箱内对5个不同类型的高产水稻幼苗作耐冷性比较,结果表明两系法杂交稻培矮64s/E32的耐冷性最强,培矮64s/9311次之;两系法杂交稻组合粤杂122和常规水稻品种粤香占、特三矮2号耐冷性稍差。     

高产早籼稻的透光率及始穗后对低光强的适应性

用两系法杂交稻组合培矮 64s/E32、培矮 64s/9311、粤杂122和常规水稻品种粤香占、特三矮 2号为材料,1998年早季在广州研究了它们的透光率和对低光强适应性的差异后认为:1.生育期不同其直射光透光率的变化是分蘖期>始穗期<收割期,即透光率由大→小→大变化,它与叶片开张角随生育期变化的情况相对应,但与叶面积指数由小→大→小的变化相反。2.不同类型早籼稻在始穗后遮光处理降低透光率,生育期短的粤杂122、粤香占对低光强的适应性比其余组合或品种好,其单穗重降幅小。     

高产水稻移栽后叶、鞘生长动态的差异

1998年早季于广州,用两系法水稻高产新组合培矮64s/E32、培矮64s/9311、粤杂 122和常规高产品种粤香占、特三矮2号,研究了它们移栽后叶、鞘生长动态的差异。结果见到:（1）主茎上的出叶速度与其生育期长短相对应;（2）鞘长/叶长比例小对孕育大穗、提高结实率有利,“叶长鞘短”应属水稻高产育种中所寻求的一个重要指标。     

后记

1998年早季在广州地区生态条件下,用两系法杂交稻新组合培矮64s/E32、培矮 64s/9311、粤杂122以及常规籼稻品种粤香占、特三矮2号为供试材料,自播种至收割对其基本生物学特性观察研究后,认识到要把本稻作区的水稻产量更进一步提高的有效途径,乃是进行超高产或者超级稻株型育种、而其株型的动态模式可以设想为:1.熟期性中等.即从播种至始穗历期限或为86—100 d,如培矮64s/E32或特三矮2号;若像粤杂122或粤香占那样的早熟类型,从播种到始穗历期<85 d,由于生育期太短而难获高产;若像培矮64s/9311那样的迟熟类型,从播种至始穗历期>101 d,生育期过长的弊病除不利于后季稻茬口安排外,虫、鼠、雀的严重为害也对高产不利.     

高产早籼稻产量构成因素初析

1998年早季在广州研究了3个两系法杂交水稻组合和2个常规稻品种的产量构成因素,初步认为:两系法杂交稻新组合培矮64s/E32的产量最高,它单穗湿重和穗长亦最大,分别达5.42g和24.7cm;而常规稻品种粤香占亩有效穗数最高和谷/秆比值最大,分别达23.3万穗/亩和1.53。如果把这些性状有机地组合起来后再加上粤杂122的优质特性,这种结构模式将为华南地区水稻超高产或超级稻育种,展示了一种美好的前景。     

高静水压诱导水稻变异的初步研究

以高静水压处理水稻粤香占、粤丰占、998、999和毕粳38种子后的当代群体(M1),以及从中筛选到的突变株粤变长、巨无霸、粤丰压变1号-5号、毕籼为材料,研究了静水高压对水稻生长发育及其农艺性状的影响,结果发现：(1)与对照相比,粤香占和998处理当代群体的株高和有效穗数明显增加,但株叶形态没有明显变化;粤丰占、999和毕粳38的处理群体没有明显变化;(2)粤变长和巨无霸从第二代(M2)到第四代(M4)性状稳定,未发现明显分离,但在株高、有效穗数、穗粒数、粒长和千粒重等方面,与对照相比明显不同;(3)在M,代,粤丰压变1号一5号中除粤丰压变2号外的株高都发生了分离,而且粤丰压变4号分离出了大粒型和长芒型的植株;(4)毕籼从Mz代到lVt,代,性状稳定,但其株高、穗长、粒长和穗粒数均比对照显著增加,结实率和千粒重则明显降低;(5)经静水高压处理后的粤丰占种子发芽试验中,出现了双苗和3苗现象。这些结果表明静水高压能够影响水稻的生长发育,并能诱导水稻产生变异。     

药用野生稻TAC克隆转化籼稻的体系初探

采用已构建的药用野生稻TAC文库,比较研究4个籼稻品种在不同培养基的诱导率及愈伤组织对潮霉素抗性。通过2种不同诱导方法产生的愈伤组织,将携带药用野生稻大片段DNA的TAC克隆转化到籼稻品种中的结果表明,除了‘粤香占’以外,其它3个品种在心诱导培养基中添加微量B,后,其愈伤诱导率最高。不同品种的潮霉素筛选适合浓度存在差异,其中‘华粳籼74’的适合筛选浓度为50mg．L-1,‘粤香占’为40mg．L-1。用预培养5d的愈伤组织进行遗传转化,在潮霉素筛选之前先以头孢拉定抑菌处理的,容易获得转基因植株。4个品种中以‘粤香占’的抗性愈伤组织筛选率和分化率最高,分别为22．58％和14．86％。分子检测11株转基因水稻的结果表明,其中8株含有抗性标记基因。据此认为,药用野生稻TAC文库在水稻创新育种中可能有一定的利用前景。     

高产早籼稻群体动态结构的差异

1998年早季在广州研究了不同类型高产早籼稻群体动态结构差异,结果认为:两系法杂交稻高产新组合培矮64s/E32、培矮64s/9311、粤杂122,其幼穗第2次枝梗原基分化期以前的植株干物重、叶面积指数（LAI）比常规稻高产品种粤香占和特三矮2号表现出明显的生长优势。培矮64s/E32在5个供试材料中在始穗期的LAI最高,达7.81,干物重日增量最大,达8.76kg/亩·d;粤香占的每亩有效穗数最高,达23.3万穗/亩,收获指数是所有参试材料中唯一达到 0.6以上者。     

抗生素G418胁迫条件下转基因水稻种子发芽特性及应用

在不同浓度的抗生素G418胁迫条件下对抗稻瘟病转基因水稻纯系材料D2-1-2及其受体对照中花9号进行了发芽试验。培养7d的结果表明：不同浓度抗生素处理对两个材料萌动无显著的影响;随抗生素浓度的上升,两个材料发根种子数、种子根长、芽长均受到不同程度的抑制;当抗生素浓度达100mg/L时,转基因材料D2-1-2仍可正常长根(平均1.45cm),但中花9号明显受到抑制(平均0.27cm),二者存在明显差异;根据这一特性,从中花9号和D2-1-2混合群体中筛选出来的长根（大于0.5cm）种子经PCR检测88.46%是转基因个体。     

香果树(Emmenopterys henryi)种群种子雨、种子库及 实生苗数量的海拔梯度变化

香果树为我国Ⅱ级野生保护植物,由于原生境中香果树种群的数量迅速减少,目前已濒临灭绝,种群亟待恢复。研究了武夷山不同海拔的香果树种群种子雨、种子库及其幼苗存活现状,目的是阐明不同海拔地区的香果树种群自然更新的动态过程,寻找其更新脆弱的环节及其影响因素,为香果树自然种群的恢复提供理论依据。以分布于不同海拔高度（819、980、1 140及1 301 m）的香果树母树为中心,在其周围（东、南、西、北四个方位）布设种子雨收集框和土壤种子库样方,连续观测种子雨和种子库的动态,并对不同地表覆盖物中种子萌发及幼苗数量进行观测和记录。结果表明,武夷山香果树种群种子雨持续时间近2个月,尤其是11月底至12月中旬为种子雨高峰期;随着海拔的上升,香果树种子总密度以及虫蛀种子密度均显著降低,但千粒重以及饱满种子密度则有所增加;香果树土壤种子库为瞬时种子库,其水平分布以母树南侧和西侧种子密度较大,母树北侧种子密度最小。香果树种子的垂直分布主要集中于枯落物和苔藓层;3月时香果树土壤种子库中存留的饱满种子仅占种子散布后1.80%,而1年实生苗存活率为6.18%,土壤种子库的损耗是其种群自然更新困难的主要原因;不同地表覆盖物对香果树幼苗的存活产生显著影响,枯落物及苔藓层的幼苗死亡率显著高于土壤表面。建议清理林内枯落物及苔藓,增加林内裸露土壤的面积,减小地上草本的盖度,以减少种子霉烂、虫蛀的几率,增加香果树实生苗胚根与土壤接触的几率以及改善光照条件,促进香果树自然更新。     

云南生态条件下基因枪法转溶菌酶基因水稻潜在变异性

在云南2种生态条件下,对基因枪法获得的转溶菌酶基因水稻高代品系D2-1-2和受体品种中花9号的农艺性状、稻米蛋白质含量、氨基酸含量和11种矿质元素进行了对照分析。结果表明转基因品系和受体对照在生育期农艺性状上无明显的差异,但转基因水稻结实率和株高明显低于受体品种;转基因水稻糙米蛋白质含量、氨基酸含量以及9种矿质元素含量都有所增加,其中钙、铁和锌等元素增加幅度较大。认为基因枪法转基因植物可能会产生一些潜在的遗传变异,因此,建议应对转基因植物进行多年多点的环境风险评价。     

Potential variability of trans-lysozyme gene rice under ecological conditions of Yunnan Province, China

Using trans-lysozyme gene rice line D2-1-2 and its restorer Zhonghua No.9 as test materials, we studied their agronomic characters and grain qualities under two ecological conditions of Yunnan Province. The results show that there were no significant differences in the agro-nomic characters between D2-1-2 and Zhonghua No.9, but the seed setting rate and plant height of D2-1-2 were significantly lower, while the protein, amino acid and min-eral element (Ca, Fe and Zn in particular) contents in its crude grain were higher than those of Zhonghua No.9. It is suggested that there could be some potential genetic variances in the transgenic plant and the possibly induced environmental risk should be evaluated in multi-plots for several years.

Seed source variation in 32P uptake in inus taeda L. seedlings: A possible regulation by efflux

Short-term ³²P uptake experiments were conducted with intact seedlings of loblolly pine (Pinus taeda L.) to examine possible seed source variation in net accumulation of ³²P in roots and shoots, and in rates of unidirectional influx. Seed source had a highly significant effect on biomass and P concentrations of shoots and roots. Seedlings from two seed sources representing fast-growing populations (a broadly-adapted and wet-site seed source) accumulated over 60% more total seedling P than smaller seedlings from a drought-hardy seed source, reflecting higher biomass and root P concentrations. Rates of unidirectional ³²P influx in seedlings from the drought-hardy seed source were more than twice the rates of the seedlings from the broadly-adapted seed source. However, after 24 h in labeled uptake solution, net accumulation of ³²P was similar, suggesting that rates of unidirectional efflux from roots of the drought-hardy seed source were also high. Although there were no significant differences in biomass and tissue P concentrations between the two fast-growing seed sources, rates of unidirectional influx in seedlings from the broadly-adapted seed source were 42% lower than rates in seedlings from the wet-site source. Yet, after 24 h in labeled uptake solution, net accumulation of ³²P in seedlings from the broadly-adapted seed source was 50% higher. Unidirectional efflux out of the root may regulate net uptake of P as much, if not more, than influx in loblolly pine seedlings-at least under high-P growth conditions. The results in this study do not support previous studies with herbaceous plants suggesting that fast-growing species typically exhibit higher rates of nutrient uptake than slow-growing species.     

Mapping of QTL for seed dormancy in a winter oilseed rape doubled haploid population

Following winter oilseed rape cultivation, considerable numbers of volunteer oilseed rape plants may occur in subsequent years in following crops. The appearance of volunteer oilseed rape plants is based on the capability of the seeds to become secondary dormant and to survive in this stage for many years in the soil. Genetic reduction of secondary seed dormancy in oilseed rape could provide a means to reduce the frequency of volunteer plants and especially the dispersal of transgenic oilseed rape. The objective of the present study was to analyse the inheritance of primary and secondary seed dormancy in a winter oilseed rape doubled haploid population derived from the cross Express 617 × R53 and to study correlations to other seed traits. Field experiments were performed in Germany for 2 years at two locations with two replicates. Seeds harvested from open pollinated plants were used for all analyses, including a laboratory test for seed dormancy. A previously developed molecular marker map of the doubled haploid population was used to map QTL of the relevant traits. For primary, secondary and total seed dormancy, the results showed significant effects of the genotypes and their interactions, with years and locations. Two, four and five QTL were detected for primary, secondary and total seed dormancy which explained 19, 35 and 42 % of the phenotypic variance, respectively. Results show that secondary seed dormancy is a heritable trait and that selection for low secondary seed dormancy is possible.     

A Comparative Evaluation of Somaclonal,Gamma Ray and EMS Induced Variation in Brassica juncea

Tissue culture induced somaclonal (SC), chemical mutagen EMS (E) and gamma ray (I) induced variation among 269 third generation families in each category generated from a popular variety of Brassica juncea were evaluated for important agronomic traits, namely flowering time, plant height, number of primary and secondary branches, seed yield per plant and per plot. The frequency of somaclonal-lines significantly superior to control was higher than such EMS or irradiated lines, in general. Somaclones also showed higher heritability values. One somaclone, SC-122, is significantly superior to control for upto five traits, simultaneously, demonstrating the practical utility of somaclonal variation in improving productivity.
