低夜温后不同光强对榕树叶片PSⅡ功能和光能分配的影响

研究了自然低夜温后全光照与遮荫对榕树叶片PSⅡ功能及光能分配的影响。结果表明低夜温后全光照条件下叶片吸收光能分配于光化学反应部分减少,而热耗散部分和反应中心过剩光能则增加,从而导致了PSⅡ功能的下降,遮荫条件下光能分配于光化学反应的程度增加．虽然用于热耗散的比例下降了,但反应中心过剩光能相对较少,从而有利于PSⅡ功能的恢复。     

外源水杨酸对黄瓜幼苗叶片PSⅡ活性和光能分配的影响

以黄瓜品种‘中农203号’幼苗为试材,采用水培法研究了根际施用0.05、0.10和0.50 mmol/L水杨酸对黄瓜幼苗叶片PSⅡ活性和光能分配的影响,以探讨水杨酸对光合作用的调节机制。结果显示:黄瓜幼苗叶片净光合速率(Pn)、荧光参数和光能分配对水杨酸的响应存在明显的浓度依赖性。0.05和0.10 mmol/L水杨酸处理提高了叶片PSⅡ最大光化学量子产量(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ实际光化学效率(ΦPSⅡ)、PSⅡ潜在活性(Fv/F0)、电子传递速率(ETR)、光化学猝灭系数(qP),降低了非光化学猝灭系数(NPQ),使PSⅡ吸收光能中分配于光化学反应的能量增加,进而提高了Pn,并以0.10 mmol/L水杨酸施用效果最明显,差异达极显著水平(P<0.01);而0.50 mmol/L水杨酸处理降低了ΦPSⅡ、Fv/Fm等,使光能分配于热耗散和荧光耗散的比例升高,导致Pn下降。研究表明,水杨酸对黄瓜叶片光合的正负调节作用与浓度依存下的PSⅡ活性和光能分配改变有关。     

濒危植物长序榆(Ulmus elongata)幼苗叶绿素荧光特性的初步研究

用Li-6400XT便携式光合作用仪对濒危植物长序榆幼苗的各叶绿素荧光参数的日变化和快速光响应曲线进行了测定。结果发现,光系统Ⅱ(PSⅡ)的实际光化学效率(ΦPSⅡ)、电子传递速率(ETR)在整个白天阶段较稳定,下午18:00显著下降。光化学淬灭(qP)先增大后减小。非光化学淬灭(NPQ)呈现出与光化学淬灭(qP)相反的变化趋势,中午最低,说明长序榆幼苗光能利用率较高。快速光曲线表明实际光化学效率(ΦPSⅡ)和光化学淬灭(qP)随着光合有效辐射(PAR)的增大而减小,电子传递速率(ETR)和非光化学淬灭(NPQ)随着光合有效辐射(PAR)的增大而增大。使用幂函数能够很好的拟合实际光化学效率(ΦPSⅡ)和电子传递速率(ETR)随光强的变化,而对数函数能较好的拟合实际光化学淬灭(qP)和非光化学淬灭(NPQ)随光强的变化。     

硝酸根胁迫对黄瓜幼苗叶片光合速率、PSⅡ光化学效率及光能分配的影响

研究了不同浓度NO₃^-胁迫对黄瓜幼苗叶片光合速率、PSⅡ光化学效率及光能分配的影响.结果表明,当NO₃^-浓度较低时（14～98 mmol·L^-1）,适当增加NO₃^-浓度,可增强黄瓜幼苗叶片对光的捕获能力,促进光合作用.随着NO₃^-浓度的进一步增加（140～182 mmol·L^-1）,PSⅡ光化学效率降低,电子传递受到抑制,净光合速率降低;吸收的光能中,通过天线色素的热耗散增加,用于光化学反应的能量降低,光化学效率下降.140和182 mmol·L^-1 NO₃^-处理黄瓜幼苗叶片6 d后净光合速率(P_n)极显著下降,分别比对照降低了35%和78%;PSⅡ最大光化学效率(F_v/F_m)、天线转化效率(F_v’/F_m’)、实际光化学效率(Φ_PSⅡ)、光化学猝灭系数(q_P)均低于对照,非光化学猝灭(NPQ)高于对照,激发能在两个光系统间的分配不平衡性(β/α-1)增大.高浓度NO₃^-处理的黄瓜幼苗叶片各荧光参数变化幅度比低浓度大.当光照增强时,高浓度NO₃^-胁迫下黄瓜幼苗叶片吸收的光能中应用于光化学反应的份额(P) 显著降低,天线热耗散的份额(D)显著增加. 天线热耗散是耗散过剩能量的主要途径.     

金钟藤叶绿素荧光特征初探

利用叶绿素荧光技术初步观测丁金钟藤在不同作用光下的光合生理特征,并对其离体叶片在低温、高温及脱水胁迫下的光能利用状况作了比较。结果显示,随着作用光强的增加,叶片Fv＇/Fm＇、qP和ΦPSⅡ呈下降趋势,qN和NPQ表现为上升。离体叶片在5℃处理6h后,其Fv＇/Fm＇、qP和ΦPSⅡ高于25℃和45℃处理的,而NPQ在5℃和45℃处理6h后明显低于对照（25℃）,qN则略有降低。离体叶片脱水胁迫12h后,仍有一定的光能转化能力,但脱水24h和36h后,qP、ΦPSⅡ、qN、NPQ都明显下降。这表明金钟藤对于环境因子,如光强、温度及水分的变化具有较强的适应性,这可能是其在森林中能快速蔓延扩散的一个重要原因。     

温州蜜柑叶片光系统反应中心光能分配的变化

为深入了解果树光化学反应中心光能分配的状况,以柑橘为试材,采用调制荧光法对叶片光系统在高光强和低光强下的状态转换进行了研究.结果表明, 光系统在100 μmol·m^-2·s^-1的低光强下,由于QA的还原使PQ库处于还原状态,导致光能由PSⅡ转向PSⅠ分配,光系统处于状态2;在1 000 μmol·m^-2·s^-1 的高光强下, PQ库无法得到电子而处于氧化状态,导致光能分配由PSⅠ转向PSⅡ,光系统处于状态1.叶片经磷酸酯酶抑制剂NaF处理后,光系统从高光强下状态2到状态1的转换受到抑制.高光强下过多的光能由PSⅠ向PSⅡ分配是导致PSⅡ光破坏的重要原因.

西宁和海北麻花艽净光合速率和叶绿素荧光参数的日变化比较

以青藏高原药用植物麻花艽为材料,研究了西宁和海北两个地区麻花艽叶片的净光合速率和叶绿素荧光参数的日变化进程。结果表明：在中午太阳辐射较强时两地麻花艽叶片的净光合速率（Pn）均下降,下午随日间光强的减弱逐渐上升,形成双峰曲线;海北麻花艽叶片的净光合速率（Pn）及其日变幅均低于西宁。随日间光强的增加麻花艽叶片的PSⅡ最大光化学效率（Fv／Fm）、PSⅡ的潜在活性（Fv/Fo）下降,非光化学猝灭系数（NPQ）则上升,黄昏各参数都恢复到接近早晨的水平,表明未发生光合机构的破坏;一天中海北麻花艽叶片的Pn、Fv／Fm、Fv／Fo均低于西宁,表明随海拔的升高、光强的增加,海北麻花艽热耗散增多,午间光抑制加重。     

遮荫和全光下生长的棉花光合作用和叶绿素荧光特征

 遮荫条件下（遮荫下光强相当于自然光强的40％左右）棉花(Gossypium hirsutum)叶片光合速率明显降低,仅为自然光强下生长叶片的30%～40％,叶片中RuBP羧化酶活性降低,而表观量子效率(AQY)较高。不同光照条件下生长的棉花叶片对短时间持续光强的光合诱导过程有明显的差异,由弱光转到强光下,自然光强下生长的叶片的Pn、Gs、ΦPSⅡ及非光化学猝灭系数(NPQ)都能在较短的时间内达到最大值,而遮荫叶片需要的时间较长;遮荫下生长的棉花叶片的实际光化学效率,随光强的增加下降幅度较大,而自然光照下生长的叶片下降幅度较小;自然光照下生长的叶片的NPQ随光强的升高达到较高水平,而遮荫叶片在较低的光强下即达到最大值,此时NPQ较低,遮荫叶片依赖于叶黄素循环的能量耗散水平较低。遮荫叶片较低的光合速率以及过剩光能耗散能力是其转入自然强光后光抑制严重的主要原因。     

Structure-function studies of the bacteriophage T4 DNA polymerase. Isolation of a novel suppressor mutant

We describe here our first attempt in using suppressor mutations to study structure-function relationships of the bacteriophage T4 DNA polymerase. One intragenic suppressor mutation, J5(43) degrees, was isolated that suppresses the temperature sensitivity but not the mutator activity of tsM19, a DNA polymerase mutant. Thus, the substituted amino acid induced by the tsM19 lesion decreases DNA polymerase fidelity, even if the temperature sensitivity has been corrected by a second amino acid substitution in the DNA polymerase polypeptide. The isolation, mapping and characterization of the J5(43) degrees mutation as well as the purification and characterization of the tsM19-J5(43) degrees mutant DNA polymerase are presented. The suppressor isolation procedure has general applicability for the selection of suppressor mutations of other T4 DNA polymerase mutator mutants.

Patch size and base composition of ultraviolet light-induced repair synthesis in toluenized Escherichia coli.

Small patch repair in ultraviolet-irradiated Escherichia coli is saturated at deoxyrmcleoside triphosphate concentrations (～ 2 μm of each dNTP) that are severely limiting for DNA replication. The low requirement of the repair process for dNTPs permits direct demonstration of u.v.-induced DNA synthesis by incorporation of labeled dNTP and determination of its extent, base composition and patch size.It is concluded that DNA polymeraso 1 is involved in small patch repair and that an average of 13 to 16 nucleotides are re-inserted per pyrimidine dimer excised. The average base composition of the repaired stretches adjacent to the dimers is similar to that of total E. coli DNA.An assay utilizing endogenous u.v.-specific endonuclease to determine dimer excision is described.

Eimeria filamentifera sp. n. from the Snapping Turtle, Chelydra serpentina (Linné), in Iowa

SYNOPSIS. Oocysts of Eimeria filamentifera sp. n. were isolated from 2 of 2 snapping turtles, Chelydra serpentina (Linné), in Iowa. The ovoid to ellipsoid oocysts of this species averaged 23.2 × 18.6 μm and had a length/width ratio ranging from 1.1 to 1.6. The ellipsoid sporocysts averaged 14.0 × 7.7 μm and had papillose, filament-bearing Stieda bodies. Oocyst and sporocyst residua were present, but micropyle and polar granule were not. This appears to be the 2nd species of Eimeria reported from snapping turtles, with E. chelydrae being the first.     

Regulatory light-chains and scallop myosin. Full dissociation, reversibility and co-operative effects

Lambda duplication phages grown for several rounds on Escherichia coli strains containing arl mutations were recombined at elevated frequencies (3 to 6-fold higher) in subsequent test infections. Enhanced recombination of Arl^? phages (grown on arl bacteria) was demonstrable by assays for altered genetic linkages as well as by the standard assay, which measures the conversion of duplication phages (EDTA-sensitive) to single-copy phages (EDTA-resistant). The accumulated potential for enhanced recombination was lost during subsequent growth of the phages on arl⁺ bacteria. Arl^? phages had the same mutation frequencies, at a variety of loci, as control phages; arl bacteria themselves exhibited normal mutation rates. Arl^? phages had normal plating efficiencies and buoyant densities. DNA extracted from Arl^? phages exhibited the same frequency of strand interruption, the same superhelical density (when circularized in vivo), and the same thermal denaturation profile as DNA from phages grown on arl⁺ bacteria. Recombination of Arl^? phages in the presence of λ repressor was very low, as is the case for normal phages. The recombination frequency of ultraviolet light irradiated (80 J/m²) Arl^? phages was more than twice the sum of the frequencies for unirradiated Arl^? phages and irradiated control phages. Substantially increased recombination of Arl^? phages was observed when either the E. coli RecBC, or RecE (but not RecF) pathway was active.

Rapid inhibition of protein histidine phosphorylation by UV-irradiation in Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae

Abstract Exposure of Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae cells to 254 nm UV radiation resulted in an alteration of protein phosphorylation. Labelling of the phosphohistidine-containing proteins with molecular masses of 81 and 32 kDa, named p81 and p32, was rapidly reduced following UV irradiation in the early exponential cells, but the decrease was not detected in mid-exponential cells. Mitomycin C, a DNA replication inhibitor, and rifampicin, a drug generally used to inhibit RNA synthesis and DNA replication, were also found to reduce the histidyl phosphorylation. However, this alteration of protein phosphorylation was not hindered by chloramphenicol treatment. A possible role for these histidyl phosphopfoteins in sensing UV light is proposed.
