K序列探讨虎杖属与西伯利亚蓼的系统学位置

以蓼科Polygonaceae酸模亚科Rumicoideae酸模族Rumiceae大黄属Rheum L.作外类群, 对蓼亚科Polygonideae蓼族Polygoneae 4属19种1变种的trnL-F序列以及16种1变种的matK序列进行了测定(部分序列取自GenBank)和聚类分析, 探讨了虎杖属Reynoutria Houtt.和西伯利亚蓼Polygonum sibiricum Laxm.的系统学位置, 结果表明: (1)虎杖属在两个严格一致树中都聚到了何首乌属Fallopia Adans.的内部, trnL-F序列的支持率为99%, matK序列的支持率为100%, 说明虎杖属应归入何首乌属中, 所以虎杖属的R. japonica Houtt.与R. sachalinense (F. Schmidt ex Maxim.) Nakai应分别命名为Fallopia japonica (Houtt.) Ronse Decraene和F. sachalinense (F. Schmidt ex Maxim.) Ronse Decraene; (2)两个严格一致树都表明, 西伯利亚蓼远离蓼属Polygonum L., 聚到了何首乌属的附近, 两个序列支持率都为99%, 应将该种从蓼属中移出来, 提升为属级, 即西伯利亚蓼属Knorringia Tzvel., 西伯利亚蓼应命名为Knorringia sibirica (Laxm.) Tzvel.。另外, 本文对何首乌属与西伯利亚蓼属作了界定。     

基于trnL-F序列推测冰岛蓼属的系统发育

冰岛蓼属的界定一直存在争议,本实验以塔黄为外类群,采用最大简约法对冰岛蓼属及其近缘类群的trnL-F序列进行了系统发育分析,结果表明:(1) 冰岛蓼(Koenigia islandica)和大铜钱叶蓼(Polygonum forrestii)为姊妹群,自展分析的支持率为100%,因此,大铜钱叶蓼应归于冰岛蓼属;(2) 冰岛蓼和分叉蓼组植物聚在一起,自展支持率为99%,说明它们之间有很近的亲缘关系.     

基于trnL-F序列探讨杠板归Polygonum perfoliatum的系统位置

杠板归(Polygonum perfoliatum L.)的系统位置一直存在争议,文中以塔黄为外类群,采用最大简约法对杠板归及其近缘类群的trnL-F序列进行了系统发育分析,结果表明:(1)杠板归和刺蓼为姊妹群,自展分析的支持率为99%,分子证据支持杠板归归入刺蓼组,而没有必要单立组或属.(2)刺蓼组、春蓼组和头状蓼组植物聚在一起,自展支持率为100%,说明它们之间有很近的亲缘关系.

虎杖(Reynoutria japonica Houtt.)为蓼科(Polygonaceae)蓼族(Polygoneae)虎杖属(Reynoutria Houtt.)植物,是一种传统的中草药,具有利湿退黄、清热解毒、散瘀止痛、止咳化痰的功效。本研究采取高通量测序技术获得5个虎杖品种的叶绿体全基因组序列,并与NCBI已公布的蓼族何首乌(Fallopia multiflora)和金线草(Antenoron filiforme)等植物的叶绿体全基因组序列进行了基因组学和系统发育分析。通过基因组学分析发现,5种虎杖的叶绿体基因组大小有163 376 bp和163 371 bp两种情况,并呈现出典型的环状四分体结构,85 784 bp的一条较长的单拷贝区(large single-copy region,LSC),18 616 bp的一条较短的单拷贝区(small single-copy region,SSC),还有两条长度一致的反向重复区,分别为IRa区和IRb区相间隔分布。通过注释得到161个基因,其中蛋白编码基因106个,rRNA编码基因10个,tRNA编码基因45个。总GC含量为36.7...     

中国蓼属分叉蓼组和冰岛蓼属植物叶下表皮微形态研究

采用光学显微镜对中国蓼属分叉蓼组(Polygonum section Aconogonon)和冰岛蓼属(Koenigia)的21种植物的叶下表皮微形态进行了观察研究。结果表明,其叶下表皮微形态特征可分为三种类型：（1）气孔器类型为无规则型,表皮细胞多边形,垂周壁为波状;（2）气孔器类型为无规则型兼有非典型不等型,表皮细胞为多边形或不规则形,垂周壁为平直弓形或波状;（3）气孔器类型为不等细胞型,表皮细胞多边形,垂周壁为平直弓形。分叉蓼组（西伯利亚蓼除外）植物的叶表皮气孔器类型具有高度一致性,说明该组是一个自然类群。本文研究结果不支持将大铜钱叶蓼(Polygonum forrestii Diels)、铜钱叶蓼(P. nummularifolium Meissner)划归于冰岛蓼属的处理意见;支持将西伯利亚蓼(P. sibiricum Laxm.)独立成属,即西伯利亚蓼属(Knorringia Tzvel.)的观点;同时也支持仍将多穗蓼(P. polystachyum Wall.ex Meissner)和松林蓼(P. pinetorum Hemsl.)归在分叉蓼组的处理意见。     

基于trnL-F序列探讨杠板归Polygonum perfoliatum的系统位置

对翼蓼(蓼科)属级位置的重新探讨

通过对翼蓼Pteroxygonum giraldii Damm. &; Diels及相关属(蓼属Polygonum、何首乌属Fallopia、虎杖属Reynoutria、荞麦属Fagopyrum和金线草属Antenoron)的形态观察、果实解剖学观察、花被片脉序观察、花粉形态、核型分析, 以及ITS序列的分析确定了翼蓼和荞麦F. esculentum Moench较远的亲缘关系。其中我们发现翼蓼果实基部有三个角状物明显不同于其他属果实的形态特征。翼蓼外果皮明显加厚, 并有零星散布的波状内腔, 而荞麦的外果皮很薄, 细胞不等径, 中果皮极厚。以上证据证明了翼蓼与荞麦属亲缘关系较远。在观察荞麦属和翼蓼的花被片脉络时发现了两种不同的脉序类型, 符合将荞麦属分为两个组的划分。翼蓼花被片脉序为三出状, 支持将翼蓼归为Persicarieae族。对翼蓼及荞麦属植物的花粉进行比较后, 发现荞麦属植物的花粉网孔有明显的内凹穿孔而翼蓼却没有, 结果表明二者亲缘关系较远。通过对nrDNA ITS区域序列分析得出翼蓼及相关属为一个单系类群, 含有两个稳定的分支: 第一个分支由蓼属(萹蓄组sect. Avicularia)、何首乌属、虎杖属的植物组成, 第二个分支由蓼属(刺蓼组sect. Echinocaulon、蓼组sect. Polygonum、分叉蓼组sect. Aconogonon、拳参组sect. Bistorta、翼蓼和荞麦属植物组成。同时第二个分支又分成了两个亚分支, 蓼属(刺蓼组、蓼组、分叉蓼组、拳参组)和翼蓼属Pteroxygonum植物属于第一个亚支而荞麦属植物属于第二个亚支。结果支持翼蓼不属于荞麦属的范畴。实验结果显示翼蓼是个单型属, 属于Persicarieae族。

Molecular characterisation of species and genotypes of Cryptosporidium and Giardia and assessment of zoonotic transmission

The molecular characterisation of species and genotypes of Cryptosporidium and Giardia is essential for accurately identifying organisms and assessing zoonotic transmission. Results of recent molecular epidemiological studies strongly suggest that zoonotic transmission plays an important role in cryptosporidiosis epidemiology. In such cases the most prevalent zoonotic species is Cryptosporidium parvum. Genotyping and subtyping data suggest that zoonotic transmission is not as prevalent in the epidemiology of giardiasis. Molecular characterisation of Cryptosporidium and Giardia is a relatively recent application that is evolving as new genes are found that increase the accuracy of identification while discovering a greater diversity of species and yet unnamed taxa within these two important genera. As molecular data accumulate, our understanding of the role of zoonotic transmission in epidemiology and clinical manifestations is becoming clearer.     

Comparison of BMI and percentage of body fat of Indian and German children and adolescents

Today, serious health problems as overweight and obesity are not just constricted to the developed world, but also increase in the developing countries (Prentice 2006, Ramachandram et al. 2002). Focusing on this issue, BMI and percentage of body fat were compared in 2094 schoolchildren from two cross-sectional studies from India and Germany investigated in 2008 and 2009. The German children are in all age groups significantly taller, whereas the Indian children show higher values in BMI (e.g. 12 years: Indian: around 22 kg/m2; German: around 19 kg/m2) and in the percentage of body fat (e.g. 12 years: Indian: around 27%; German: around 18-20%) in most of the investigated age groups. The Indian children have significantly higher BMI between 10 and 13 (boys) respectively 14 years (girls). Indian children showed significant higher percentage of body fat between 10 and 15 years (boys) and between 8 and 16 years (girls). The difference in overweight between Indian and German children was strongest at 11 (boys) and 12 (girls) years: 70% of the Indian but 20% of the German children were classified as overweight. In countries such as India that undergo nutritional transition, a rapid increase in obesity and overweight is observed. In contrast to the industrialized countries, the risk of overweight in developing countries is associated with high socioeconomic status. Other reasons of the rapid increase of overweight in the developing countries caused by different environmental or genetic factors are discussed.

Carnitine and creatine content of tissues of normal and alloxan-diabetic sheep and rats

The concentration of carnitine in liver increased 28-fold and urinary carnitine excretion 5-fold in alloxan-diabetic sheep. In contrast there were no similar increases in alloxan-diabetic rats. The creatine content of liver decreased 3-fold and creatine excretion decreased 2-fold in diabetic sheep. In contrast the creatine content of liver increased nearly 4-fold in diabetic rats with no change in creatine excretion. The marked increased in production of carnitine by the liver of the diabetic sheep appears possible because of decreased production and excretion of creatine.
