In vitro raised shoots of Mentha arvensis L. were screened for menthol tolerance level by growing them in media containing 0–100 g ml–1 menthol. A total of 2850 regenerated shoots were step wise screened for menthol tolerance at the concentrations of 50 g ml–1 followed by 60 and 70 g ml–1. In this screening, only 30 individual regenerated shoots were able to survive. The clones from the primary screen were inoculated into rooting medium and, after rooting, transferred to pots in the greenhouse. Ultimately, these 30 menthol tolerant clones were multiplied and grown in the field in replicated plots of 2.5×2.5 m sizes. Twigs of 30 clones from the replicated trials were rechecked for tolerant phenotypes at a concentration of 70 g ml–1 menthol wherein, these survived even after 7 days (secondary screening). These clones were checked for oil and menthol content and were found to be better than the control plants. Out of these 30 plants, five tolerated 80 g ml–1 menthol (tertiary level screening) and were found to contain the highest amount of menthol per g leaf biomass. Molecular analysis through RAPD showed distinct variation in the profiles of these five plants, in comparison to the control. Using this method the relationship between the primer OPT 04, menthol tolerance and high menthol content character of the genotype was established. Further, a cultivar `Saksham' was released from the selections by CIMAP for superior performance. 相似文献

Adults of the human parasitic trematode Schistosoma mansoni, which causes
hepatosplenic/intestinal complications in humans, synthesize
glycoconjugates containing the Lewis x (Lex) Galbeta1-->4(Fucalpha1--
>3)GlcNAcbeta1-->R, but not sialyl Lewis x (sLex), antigen. We now
report on our analyses of Lexand sLexexpression in S.haematobium and
S.japonicum, which are two other major species of human schistosomes that
cause disease, and the possible autoimmunity to these antigens in infected
individuals. Antigen expression was evaluated by both ELISA and Western
blot analyses of detergent extracts of parasites using monoclonal
antibodies. Several high molecular weight glycoproteins in both S.
haematobium and S. japonicum contain the Lexantigen, but no sialyl
Lexantigen was detected. In addition, sera from humans and rodents infected
with S.haematobium and S.japonicum contain antibodies reactive with Lex.
These results led us to investigate whether Lexantigens are expressed in
other helminths, including the parasitic trematode Fasciola hepatica , the
parasitic nematode Dirofilaria immitis (dog heartworm), the ruminant
nematode Haemonchus contortus , and the free-living nematode Caenorhabditis
elegans . Neither Lexnor sialyl-Lexis detectable in these other helminths.
Furthermore, none of the helminths, including schistosomes, express Lea,
Leb, Ley, or the H- type 1 antigen. However, several glycoproteins from all
helminths analyzed are bound by Lotus tetragonolobus agglutinin , which
binds Fucalpha1-->3GlcNAc, and Wisteria floribunda agglutinin, which
binds GalNAcbeta1-->4GlcNAc (lacdiNAc or LDN). Thus, schistosomes may be
unique among helminths in expressing the Lexantigen, whereas many different
helminths may express alpha1,3-fucosylated glycans and the LDN motif.

Three controlled crosses were carried out involving Mentha arvensis and Mentha spicata [M. spicata CIMAP/C30 x M. spicata CIMAP/C33 (cv. Neera); M. arvensis CIMAP/C18 x CIMAP/C17 (cv. Kalka); and M. arvensis CIMAP/C17 x M. spicata CIMAP/C33]. The parents were subjected to random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) analysis with 80 primers, and polymorphic primers were tested for detecting coinherited RAPD profiles among the progeny of these crosses. Of 50 seedlings tested from each intraspecific cross, all demonstrated dominant profiles with the selected RAPD primers except the detected hybrid from respective crosses. Coinherited markers could be detected with the primers OPJ 01, MAP 06, OPT 08, and OPO 20 for M. arvensis; OPJ 05, OPJ 14, OPO 19, and OPT 09 for M. spicata; and OPJ 07, OPJ 10, OPJ 11, OPJ 14, and OPO 02 for the cross M. arvensis x M. spicata. In our amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) analysis, 40 coinherited marker fragments were identified for the cross involving M. arvensis, 32 for the cross involving M. spicata, and 41 for the interspecific cross between M. arvensis and M. spicata. In all crosses, similarity values between the parents were less than those between the parents and the hybrids. Although RAPD markers are generally considered dominant, it is possible to identify a few codominant markers that behave like restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) markers. This molecular marker system may be helpful in rapidly screening out hybrids in crops where cross-pollination is a problem. 相似文献

A high yield of nifedipine-chitosan microspheres could be obtained using an emulsification phase-separation method. A high level of entrapment of nifedipine in the microspheres was achieved. The microspheres exhibited excellent swelling properties. Differential scanning calorimetry, X-ray diffractometry, and scanning electron microscopy confirmed that at 1.84% loading, nifedipine was dispersed molecularly. The microspheres exhibited faster release at low loadings compared to high loadings. Fitting the data to the coupled Fickian/case II equation, showed that at low loadings polymer relaxation coefficients (k2) were high. As the polymer content increased in the microspheres, the value of n (diffusional exponent characteristic of the release mechanism) approached one, which is indicative of zero order. 相似文献

Artemisia annua is the source of antimalarial phytomolecule, artemisinin. It is mainly produced and stored in the glandular secretory trichomes present in the leaves of the plant. Since, the artemisinin biosynthesis steps are yet to be worked out, in this investigation a microarray chip was strategized for the first time to shortlist the differentially expressing genes at a stage of plant producing highest artemisinin compared to the stage with no artemisinin. As the target of this study was to analyze differential gene expression associated with contrasting artemisinin content in planta and a genotype having zero/negligible artemisinin content was unavailable, it was decided to compare different stages of the same genotype with contrasting artemisinin content (seedling - negligible artemisinin, mature leaf - high artemisinin). The SCAR-marked artemisinin-rich (∼1.2%) Indian variety ‘CIM-Arogya’ was used in the present study to determine optimal plant stage and leaf ontogenic level for artemisinin content. A representative EST dataset from leaf trichome at the stage of maximal artemisinin biosynthesis was established. The high utility small scale custom microarray chip of A. annua containing all the significant artemisinin biosynthesis-related genes, the established EST dataset, gene sequences isolated in-house and strategically selected candidates from the A. annua Unigene database (NCBI) was employed to compare the gene expression profiles of two stages. The expression data was validated through semiquantitative and quantitative RT-PCR followed by putative annotations through bioinformatics-based approaches. Many candidates having probable role in artemisinin metabolism were identified and described with scope for further functional characterization. 相似文献
