乙烯吸收剂处理可有效改善蓝莓果实的储存效果

为了揭示乙烯吸收剂(ethylene absorbent, EA)处理对冷藏期间蓝莓(Vaccinium spp.)果实软化的影响。本研究将蓝莓果实在0℃储存56 d,评价未采用EA处理的果实和采用EA处理的果实的品质属性、乙烯生物合成以及果实软化指标的变化。结果表明,EA处理抑制了果实软化,减少了重量损失和腐烂,并且降低了总酚含量的损失。EA通过抑制1-氨基环丙烷-1-羧酸合酶(1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid synthase, ACS)和1-氨基环丙烷-1-羧酸氧化酶(1-amino-cyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid oxidase, ACO)活性来降低果实中的乙烯产量,同时通过抑制细胞壁降解酶活性来保持果实品质。本研究表明,EA处理可以抑制0℃贮藏期间蓝莓果实的软化,在0℃冷藏超过28 d后,EA对蓝莓的储存效果具有更好的改善作用。     

茄子体内α-茄碱的含量检测及分布特点

以不同品种的茄子（Solanum melomgena L.）为试材,采用超声波提取技术和高效液相色谱法对茄子不同器官、不同颜色、不同采收时期和不同成熟度的果实及果实不同部位中α-茄碱进行提取和测定,旨在明确茄子体内α-茄碱的含量及分布特点。结果表明,茄子不同器官中,果实中α-茄碱含量最高;紫茄品种α-茄碱含量显著高于绿茄;不同时期采收的果实中以门茄中α-茄碱含量最高;未成熟茄子果实中α-茄碱含量显著高于成熟的茄子果实;各茄子品种果肉中α-茄碱含量显著高于果皮和果蒂。     

采后光照条件对白凤桃果实品质和挥发性香气物质形成的影响

研究了白凤桃果实贮藏过程中光照条件对果实成熟的影响。在7月12日(未熟期)和7月16日(硬熟期)采收果实,分别贮藏在光条件(白色荧光灯照明,果顶部光强为80μmol m~(-2)s~(-1))和暗条件中,室温均为25℃。硬熟期采收果实贮藏在光条件下,达到完熟期时,乙烯生成量较低。果肉的硬度在各个采收期,各种贮藏条件下均没有差别。光条件贮藏果实中花青苷含量较高。未熟期采收果实贮藏在光条件下时,可溶性固形物含量增加较多。光条件贮藏果实中天冬酰胺的下降比暗贮藏果实中更多。各时期采收的果实中,在光下贮藏时,果肉和果皮γ-癸内酯和γ-十二内酯的含量都明显增加。以上结果表明,白凤桃果实采收后在光下贮藏,可以明显改善果实的品质。     

桃果实发育阶段肉色形成与类胡萝卜素的变化分析

为了分析不同肉色类型桃果实发育过程中类胡萝卜素成分的变化特点及其颜色差异形成的因素,选择‘半斤桃’(红肉)、‘图八德’(黄肉)、‘正姬’(白肉)桃品种为试材,采用紫外分光光度计和高效液相色谱法(HPLC)对桃果实类胡萝卜素及其组分含量进行定性定量分析.结果显示:(1)桃果实的主要类胡萝卜素成分为叶黄素、玉米黄素、β-隐黄质、α-胡萝卜素和β-胡萝卜素.(2)随着果实的发育,‘半斤桃’和‘正姬’的类胡萝卜素总含量逐渐降低,而‘图八德’则是先降低后上升,且明显高于前二者;3种类型桃果实的叶黄素均逐渐降低,果实成熟时接近0;玉米黄素呈先降后升的趋势,果实成熟时达到最大值;‘半斤桃’和‘正姬’的β-隐黄质、α-胡萝卜素和β-胡萝卜素呈逐渐下降的趋势,而‘图八德’的β-隐黄质含量先升后微降最后上升、α-胡萝卜素和p-胡萝卜素含量则逐渐增加,且均在果实成熟时达到最大值.(3)‘图八德’成熟果实中的类胡萝卜素总含量达到最大值,其中β-胡萝卜素含量最高,占5个成分之和的75.99％.研究表明,桃果实肉色形成与类胡萝卜素的含量与成分有着紧密的联系,尤其是其中的β-胡萝卜素含量.     

梨枣在果实生长期对土壤水势的响应

以4年生梨枣为试验材料,在果实生长期设置了4个土壤水势水平,研究不同处理梨枣茎秆直径生长、光合速率、蒸腾速率、叶片相对含水量以及果实数量对土壤水势的响应,探讨了梨枣果实生长期适宜的土壤水势范围。结果表明:1)在果实缓慢生长期,茎秆直径生长缓慢;土壤水势高于-84 kPa时能显著地降低落果率。2)果实快速生长期,茎秆直径日最大值和叶片相对含水量能反映梨枣的水分状况;适当的控制土壤水势能显著的提高叶片的水分利用效率;土壤水势高于-84 kPa时果实快速生长期出现坐果现象。3)果实生长期前期的土壤水势低至-461 kPa会影响果实生长期叶片的功能和后期的坐果。因此,梨枣果实生长期的适宜的土壤水势范围为-41—-84 kPa,提高了叶片水分利用效率,提高了单果重,不影响产量。     

不同成熟度杨梅果实采后呼吸速率、乙烯释放速率和品质的变化

以3个品种杨梅果实为材料,将采后果实分为未成熟(immature)、成熟(mature)和完熟(ripe)3种不同成熟度,在20℃下48 h贮藏过程中,每隔3 h检测一次呼吸速率和乙烯释放速率,并分析成熟过程相关的品质变化.结果表明,未成熟和成熟果实的呼吸速率和乙烯合成变化呈现典型的跃变型果实特征,而在完熟果实中检测不到呼吸和乙烯跃变过程.未成熟和成熟杨梅果实中PAL活性趋于提高,而完熟果实的呈下降变化,这一结果与矢车菊-3-葡萄糖苷(Cy-3-Glu)含量变化相吻合;CIRG值与杨梅果实Cv-3-Glu含量呈极显著正相关(r=0.96**).结果显示杨梅果实属于跃变型果实.     

挥发性香气物质和乙烯生产在"湖景蜜露"桃果实发育过程中的变化

以"湖景蜜露"水蜜桃(Prunus persica L.)为试材,检测了果实从未成熟到成熟发育过程中乙烯生成、呼吸速率及挥发性香气性物质的变化;同时对果实大小、果皮色泽、果肉硬度、可溶性固形物、可滴定酸进行了测定;对与果实乙烯产生密切相关的1-氨基环丙烷-1-羧酸(ACC)含量、ACC合成酶活性、ACC氧化酶活性也进行了测定.结果表明,随果实成熟度的增加,果实大小、果皮L*值、可溶性固形物含量增加,而果实硬度、果皮h°值、可滴定酸含量减少.在未成熟的果实中,C6的醛类(反式-2-己烯醛)和醇类(顺式-3-己烯醇)是主要的成分;乙烯生成量很低;呼吸速率较高.到跃变阶段C6～C12的内酯类物质明显增加,尤其是γ和δ-内酯类成为果实主要的香气挥发性物质.推测果实乙烯、呼吸作用等基本的生理变化可能调节着内酯类物质的生成.在乙烯跃变上升时果肉中ACC氧化酶的活性下降,ACC含量和ACC合成酶活力的变化与乙烯生成量变化的趋势一致.根据以上结果可以认为桃果实主要的香气挥发性物质的形成与乙烯、呼吸跃变的开始密切相关.香气物质形成速率动态变化可能是桃果实发育过程中成熟度的另一个生理学指标.     

不同浓度的NaCl处理对葡萄果实品质形成的影响

本文测定了不同浓度的盐(NaCl)长期喷施叶片对葡萄果实品质形成的影响。各浓度的盐处理均大幅度提高了果实Na~+含量。低浓度(20 mmol·L~(-1))和中浓度(50 mmol·L~(-1))的盐对果实生长未造成显著影响,而高浓度(100和150 mmol·L~(-1))的盐在发育后期利于单果重增加。中、低浓度,尤其是50 mmol·L~(-1)的盐促进了花青素积累,提高了果实可溶性固形物含量和发育后期的固酸比;而高浓度的盐不利于着色和可溶性固形物含量积累,对果实酸度影响不大,降低了固酸比。不同浓度的盐处理均显著降低了果实总的香气种类和浓度;果实中酯类物质对盐敏感,盐处理提高了(E)-2-己烯~(-1)-醇和(E)-4-己烯~(-1)-醇的含量。总之,盐处理不利于果实香气的形成;中、低浓度,尤其是50 mmol·L~(-1)的盐有利于着色和糖酸积累,高盐则不利于品质形成,原因之一在于影响了叶片功能。     

河静黑叶猴果实性食物组成、选择及其对种子的扩散作用

喀斯特森林的生态环境较其他类型的森林更为脆弱.由于抗干扰和恢复能力低,喀斯特森林中种子扩散对维持植物种群的续存与更新具极其重要的作用.叶猴以叶为主要食物,果实是仅列其后的第二大食物资源.对分布于喀斯特生境的叶猴来说,它们对果实的取食具有潜在的种子传播作用.基于此,于2009年7月-2010年12月,在越南广平的风芽-格邦国家自然公园,通过实地跟踪观察结合粪便收集调查了河静黑叶猴(Trachypithecus francoisi hatinhensis)对果实的选择及其对种子的潜在扩散作用.河静黑叶猴全年共采食果实类食物38科131种,取食的果实种类和取食高峰持续期均高于其他地区黑叶猴对果实的取食.这得益于当地原始雨林中丰富的果实食物资源.河静黑叶猴对果实种类没有明显的选择偏好(-0.3＜S112种果实＜0.3),果实资源的可获得性亦不影响其对果实的取食频次(r=-0.13,P=0.15＞0.05),在雨季的果实食物种类和取食强度上均高于旱季(z=-2.903,P=0.02＜0.05).在果实性状的选择上,河静黑叶猴对处理难度较小的浆果和核果(两种类型的果实共106种,占80.9％)有明显的选择偏好,更多地选择黄色(46种)、红色(29种)和绿色(14种)(三种颜色的果实占果实种类的68.7％),重量多为5 g以上较大的果实(共104种,占果实种类的79.4％),更多地选择果实内仅有1-2颗种子的果实.河静黑叶猴多吞食直径小于3 cm的种子,在猴群的粪便中发现了85种果实的种子,尤以肉质的浆果和核果最多,如垂叶榕(Ficus benjamina)、柿叶青梅(Vatica diospyroides)、构树(Broussonetia papyrifera)等.最远传播距离可达397 m.对其他的果实,则以吐出或丢弃的方式短距离传播,多集中在6-20 m范围.河静黑叶猴是一些果实较大或果皮较硬的植物重要的潜在扩散媒介,因为此类种子不能依靠鸟类吞食传播,如水浦桃(Syzygium jambos)、红毛丹(Nephelium lappaceum)和木奶果(Baccaurea ramiflora)等.河静黑叶猴一年中在雨季的夏秋两季(8-12月)对果实的取食强度达到高峰,这期间每月在猴群粪便中发现的种子数量均超过1000.结果反映出河静黑叶猴对喀斯特森林中的果实植物种子有潜在的传播作用.     

果梅果实发育过程中有机酸含量及相关代谢酶活性的变化特征

以优选荔波野生梅单株‘荔波-3’和‘荔波-11’为试验材料,采用高效液相色谱法(HPLC)测定了果梅果实在发育过程中有机酸含量及相关代谢酶活性变化特征。结果表明:(1)‘荔波-3’和‘荔波-11’果梅果实中柠檬酸和苹果酸主要在果实发育后期积累,花后140d两品种的柠檬酸积累量达到最大,且果实中总酸的积累量也相应的达到最大值。(2)柠檬酸积累量与柠檬酸合成酶(CS)活性呈极显著正相关关系,‘荔波-11’因CS活性高于‘荔波-3’,使得其果实成熟时的柠檬酸含量高于后者。(3)苹果酸积累量与磷酸烯醇式丙酮酸羧化酶(PEPC)和NAD-苹果酸脱氢酶(NAD-MDH)活性呈极显著正相关关系,但与NADP-苹果酸酶(NADP-ME)活性呈负相关关系;在花后45~100d内,果梅果实中PEPC和NAD-MDH活性迅速升高,而NADP-ME活性相对较低,使苹果酸积累量迅速增加;在花后120~140d,‘荔波-3’果实中PEPC、NADP-MDH活性显著高于‘荔波-11’,而其NADP-ME活性低于‘荔波-11’,导致成熟时‘荔波-11’的苹果酸含量高于‘荔波-3’。可见,果梅果实的有机酸主要在果实发育后期积累,有机酸积累差异受多个酶协同调控;苹果酸的积累差异主要由NAD-MDH、PEPC和NADP-ME活性协同变化引起,柠檬酸积累差异主要受CS活性变化影响。     

六种藓类植物茎的比较解剖学研究

通过对6种藓类植物,即褶叶青藓(Brachythecium salebrosum(Web.et Mohr.)B.S.G.)、湿地匐灯藓(Plagiomnium acutum(Lindb.)Kop.)、侧枝匐灯藓(Plagiomnium maximoviczii(Lindb.)Kop.)、大凤尾藓(Fissidensnobilis Griff.)、大羽藓(Thuidium cymbifolium(Doz.et Molk.)B.S.G.)和大灰藓(Hypnum plumaeforme Wils.)嫩茎和老茎的石蜡切片和显微观察发现,同一藓类植株的嫩茎和老茎,茎结构稳定,不同种藓类植物茎横切面具有不同特征.植物体茎横切面形状、表层细胞的层数、细胞大小和细胞壁厚薄、皮层细胞大小和形状、中轴的有无以及比例等特征可以作为藓类植物的分科分类依据之一.     

Photoregulation of seed germination of wild-type and of an aurea-mutant of tomato

Seed germination of an aurea mutant of tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) is promoted by continuous irradiation with red, far-red or long-wavelength far-red (758 nm) light as well as by cyclic irradiations (5 min red or 5 min far-red/25 min darkness). Far-red light applied immediately after each red does not change the germination behaviour. Seed germination of the isogenic wild-type, cv. UC-105, is promoted by continuous and cyclic red light while it is inhibited by continuous and cyclic far-red light and by continious 758 nm irradiation. Far-red irradiation reverses almost completely the promoting effect of red light. The promoting effect (in the aurea mutant) and the inhibitory effect (in the wild-type) of continuous far-red light do not show photon fluence rate dependency above 20 nmol m⁻² s⁻¹. It is concluded that phytochrome controls tomato seed germination throgh low energy responses in both the wild type and the au mutant. The promoting effect of continuous and cyclic far-red light in the au mutant can be attributed to a greater sensitivity to P_fr.     

Cause of Senescence of Nine Sorts of Flowers

The levels of endogenous phytohormones and respiratory rate in nine sorts of flowers such as Cymbidium faberi Rolfe, Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth and others were investigated both at full bloom and senescence and meanwhile the effect of exogenous phytohormones on prolonging the blossoms and promoting ethylene production were tested. There is a high content of endogenous ethylene in all the long-lived flowere, about 3–16 folds higer than the short-lived ones. There is a high level of ABA at full blooming flowers of short-lived flowers, in which there is no or only some cytokinins in it, but the ratio of CTK (6BA+zeatin)/ABA is smaller(l.7). The endogenous ABA reached a much higher level at senescence in all nine sorts of flowers, so it is reasonable to consider that it is ABA which plays an important role of regulation in controlling flower's senescence. There is a much higher level of GA3 and zeatin in the long-lived flowers which is not demonstrated in the shortlived ones. The respiratory rate is one of the factors controtling the longevity of flowers, but it does not play a decided role. Application of 6BA and zeatin prolongs distinctly orchid’s longevity, however exogenous IAA through the promotive action on ethylene production, evidently extends the longevity of the flowers of the Nopalxochia ackermannii Kunth.

Physiological characteristics of various species of strains of carboxydobacteria

Seven strains of aerobic carbon monoxide-oxidizing bacteria (carboxydebacteria) when growing on CO as sole source of carbon and energy had doubling times which ranged from 12–42 h. The activity profiles obtained after discontinuous sucrose density gradient centrifugation indicated that the CO-oxidizing enzymes are soluble and the hydrogenases are membrane-bound in all strains examined. The CO-oxidizing enzymes of Pseudomonas carboxydohydrogena, Pseudomonas carboxydoflava, Comamonas compransoris, and the so far unidentified strains OM2, OM3, and OM4 had a molecular weight of 230,000; that of Achromobacter carboxydus amounted to 170,000. The molecular weights of the CO-oxidizing and H₂-oxidizing enzymes turned out to be identical. The cell sonicates were shown to catalyze the oxidation of both CO and H₂ with methylene blue, thionine, phenazine methosulfate, toluylene blue, dichlorophenolindophenol, cytochrome c or ferricyanide as electron acceptors. Methyl viologen, benzyl viologen, FAD⁺, FMN⁺, and NAD(P)⁺ were not reduced. The spectrum of electron acceptors was identical for all strains tested. Neither free formate, hydrogen nor oxygen gas were involved in the CO-oxidation reaction. Methylene blue was reduced by CO at a 1:1 molar ratio. The results indicate that CO-oxidation by carboxydobacteria is catalyzed by identical or similar enzymes and that the reaction obeys the equation CO+H₂OCO₂+2H⁺+2e^- as previously shown for Pseudomonas carboxydovorans.Dedicated to Otto Kandler remembering almost three decades of enjoyable cooperation     

Modulation of allostery of pyruvate kinase by shifting of an ensemble of microstates

Since the introduction of the concepts of allostery about four decades ago, much advancement has been made in elucidating the structure-function correlation in allostery. However, there are still a number of issues that remain unresolved. In this review we used mammalian pyruvate kinase (PK) as a model system to understand the role of protein dynamics in modulating cooperativity. PK has a triosephosphate isomerase (TIM)(α/β)₈ barrel structural motif. PK is an ideal system to address basic questions regarding regulatory mechanisms about this common (α/β)₈ structural motif. The simplest model accounting for all of the solution thermodynamic and kinetic data on ligand-enzyme interactions involves two conformational states, inactive E^T and active E^R. These conformational states are represented by domain movements. Further studies provide the first evidence for a differential effect of ligand binding on the dynamics of the structural elements, not major secondary structural changes. These data are consistent with our model that allosteric regulation of PK is the consequence of perturbation of the distribution of an ensemble of states in which the inactive E^T and active E^R represent the two extreme end states. Sequence differences and ligands can modulate the distribution of states leading to alterations of functions. The future work includes: defining the network of functionally connected residues; elucidating the chemical principles governing the sequence differences which affect functions; and probing the nature of mutations on the stability of the secondary structural elements, which in turn modulate allostery.
