RFLP tagging of a new semidwarfing gene in rice

A new rice semidwarfing gene which is not allelic tosd1, temporarily designated assdg, might be of use as a new source of semidwarfism in rice breeding programs. We report here the identification of a DNA marker closely linked to this gene. The DNA marker was identified by testing 120 mapped rice RFLP makers as hybridization probes for Southern analysis of a pair of nearly isogenic lines with or withoutsdg. Linkage association of the marker with the gene was verified using a F₂ population segregating for semidwarfism. RFLP analysis showed thatsdg is closely linked to a single-copy DNA clone RZ182 on chromosome 5, with a distance of 4.3 centiMorgans between them. This marker may facilitate early selection for the semidwarfing gene in rice breeding programs     

Pattern recognition analysis to the variation of nasal-pharynx cancer patients' trace element levels in samples of hair,whole blood,and tissue

Pattern recognition has been used in this paper to analyze trace element levels in patients diagnosed with nasal-pharynx cancer (NPC) and in healthy control subjects. Trace elements such as Zn, Cu, Fe, Mn, and Mg have been tested in samples of hair and whole blood. Through Mahalanobis Distance Decision analysis, we have achieved good classification effects in whole blood samples: Efficiency for distinguishing patients is 96% and that of healthy controls is 90%. Classification hair samples is inferior to whole blood: Decision accuracy for patients is 58% and healthy controls is 90%. These results are also shown in a nonlinear mapping figure. At the same time, we have also determined 5 trace element levels in 16 other cancer patients' nonneoplastic and cancerous tissue, with no significant difference between them: Decision accuracy of cancerous tissue is 63%, and in nonneoplastic tissue is 50%, hence, we cannot identify them. It can be inferred that there is no idiosyncratic change of trace elements in cancer patients' neoplastic tissue, the change of a cancerous person may occur in the whole body.     

电脉冲穿孔法将苏云金杆菌δ-内毒素基因导入野生型芽孢杆菌

利用电脉冲穿孔法将带有苏云金杆菌毒蛋白基因的穿梭质粒导入几株野生型芽孢杆菌中。它们是野生型的蜡状芽孢杆菌、短芽孢杆菌和枯草芽孢杆菌。通过观察在新霉素和氨苄青霉素平板上长出的抗性菌落数,计算出转化效率为10~1—10~4转化子/μgDNA。从转化子中分离到的质粒DNA大小及其用HindⅢ酶切的片段与原始质粒DNA相同,毒性测试表明重组转化子对烟青虫六天的致死率达90—100％。

Specificity and function of monoclonal antibodies directed against Ewing sarcoma cells

A selection of 16 monoclonal antibodies has been produced against a fresh Ewing's sarcoma (ES) tumor mixed with a permanent ES cell line. The majority of antibodies identify an 80-kDa molecule, which is not detected on healthy tissues except on certain cultured monocytes. One antibody recognize the CD2 ligand MIC2 and 2 antibodies (numbers 13 and 16) define a higher-molecular-mass antigen. Antibody 16 is also expressed on mesenchymal fibroblasts of bone marrow or fetal origin. Tumorspecific antigen expression is potentially linked to the chromosome 22 abnormality decribed in Ewing's sarcoma.     

一种能表现水稻基因组DNA分化特征的重复DNA顺序

用ＤＮＡ 复性动力学方法克隆到一个水稻中度重复顺序。Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒｎ 杂交、限制性内切酶分析及序列分析资料表明,该重复顺序在水稻基因组中具有串联重复和散布状态两种存在方式。以该ＤＮＡ 片段作探针,用Ｓｏｕｔｈｅｒｎ 杂交方法分析了多种野生稻种和栽培稻品种的基因组分化特征。某些限制性内切酶消化过的水稻ＤＮＡ,其图谱呈现出多达４０ 条以上的杂交带,包括强杂交带和弱杂交带两种类型。重复实验结果证明,强杂交带表现为ＢＢＣＣ染色体组型特异而弱带则在栽培稻各品种间显示出丰富的多态性,表明该重复顺序片段在水稻理论研究和育种实践中可能具有重要意义     

离体条件下诱导番茄果实状结构的再生

以番茄（Ｌｙｃｏｐｅｒｓｉｃｏｎ ｅｓｃｕｌｅｎｔｕｍ Ｍｉｌｌ．）雌蕊和幼果的组织作外植体可以诱导果实状结构的再生。这种果实状结构在离体条件下能培养成熟,成熟时具红色。解剖观察表明：果实状结构由果肉和包围在外面的果皮组成,无种子和胎座。外源激素和外植体年龄的试验揭示：１．以雌蕊组织作外植体时,仅附加外源细胞分裂素就可以诱导果实状结构的再生,外源生长素似乎不是必需的,最高的诱导频率（５０．０％ ）出现在仅附加玉米素０．５ ｍ ｇ／Ｌ的组合。２．从直径４—１２ ｍ ｍ 的幼果上分离的外植体在附加外源激素的培养基上均可诱导果实状结构的再生,但只有从直径８ ｍ ｍ 的果实分离的组织块作外植体并将它们培养在６－ＢＡＰ ２ ｍ ｇ／Ｌ,ＮＡＡ０．１ ｍ ｇ／Ｌ的培养基上时,果实状结构的诱导频率最高（６２．５％ ）。为了探讨在果实状结构再生中表现出来的细胞全能性的表达,提出了植物细胞全能性的部分表达（Ｐａｒｔｉａｌｅｘｐｒｅｓｓｉｏｎ ｏｆｐｌａｎｔ ｃｅｌｌｔｏｔｉｐｏｔｅｎｃｙ）的概念并进行了讨论。     

甜菜碱对呼吸酶的保护效应

以菠菜（Ｓｐｉｎａｃｉａ ｏｌｅｒａｃｅａ Ｌ．）叶片为材料,研究了不同浓度的甜菜碱和ＮａＣｌ对三羧酸循环、末端氧化和光呼吸的组成酶的活性的影响。与电解质ＮａＣｌ不同,高浓度的甜菜碱对这些酶的活性是非抑制性的,并对ＮａＣｌ的抑制作用有一定保护效应。甜菜碱是很好的有机渗透调节剂。这与甜菜碱在细胞质中起渗透调节作用,以及是无机渗透调节剂的配伍溶质的假设是一致的。
