香菇数量性状的相关性分析和主成分分析

对110个香菇杂交菌株16个数量性状进行表型、遗传和环境相关性分析及主成分分析。由分析结果可知,单菇鲜重与有关单菇的其他5个性状在表型、遗传和环境等3个方面都存在极显著的正相关,与菇数存在3种极显著的负相关,与CMC酶活性、木聚糖酶活性分别呈显著和极显著遗传负相关。鲜菇总重与出菇期和原基期呈极显著的表型和遗传负相关,与菇数、两种菌丝生长速度及菌盖厚度呈极显著的遗传正相关。结果表明,在香菇育种工作中,菌丝生长速度和酶活性,可以作为对单菇性状和鲜菇总重进行选择的间接指标之一。主成分分析结果表明,16个性状可以缩减为6个主成分,按方差贡献率大小分别命名为单菇、发育、产量、酶活、原基和转色因子,6个主成分的方差累积贡献率为80.75%。在香菇育种中,可以按照育种目标对上述主成分因子或其分量进行单独选择。

Testing different Earlywood/Latewood delimitations for the establishment of Blue Intensity data: A case study based on Alpine Picea abies samples

For dendroclimatological Blue Intensity (BI) studies based on earlywood (EW) or latewood (LW) information, a demarcation between the two is necessary, which can be difficult to establish for species where the transition is subtle. Often, a percental value k is used that calculates an EW/LW boundary value for each tree ring individually based on the difference between maximum and minimum absorption. Several laboratories and authors have used different values for k (e.g. k = 30 % or k = 50 %), while wood anatomical and visual studies suggest that k is on the order of 80 %. Here, we test how different settings of k, and thus different definitions of the EW and LW proportions of a tree ring, influence the dendroclimatic potential of derived time series. To this end, we correlate instrumental temperature measurements with tree ring chronologies that are based on EW and LW information (e.g. EW absorption (EWBI), LW absorption (LWBI)), where the EW/LW proportion is varied by setting different values for k. The tree ring samples utilized are 30 cores of spruce (Picea abies) trees from a high-elevated site (ca. 1700 m a.s.l.) in the northern Alps, Austria. Overall, we achieve high correlations between temperature data and our tree ring chronologies. Regarding the stability of the climate signal under different k values, the results show that absorption intensity based parameters (ΔBI, EWBI, LWBI) are only mildly influenced by different settings of k, while width based parameters (EW width, LW width) show a larger dependence on k. LW width, for instance, was stronger correlated with temperature, the smaller the LW was chosen (and thus the higher k was set). Based on our results and the wood anatomical definition of the EW/LW boundary, we suggest that k = 80 % may be a good choice for future studies. However, since this is only a case study from one site, careful screening of the respective data set regarding an appropriate k value must accompany each dendroclimatological study.     

Distribution and dynamics of esterase alleles in Culex pipiens complex in China

To investigate insecticide resistance and dynamic changes of carboxylesterase polymorphism in mosquitoes with time in the Culex pipiens complex (Diptera: Culicidae), nine field mosquito populations were collected in China. The resistance levels of fourth-instar larvae to organophosphate (dichlorvos, parathion, and chlorpyrifos), carbamate (fenobucarb and propoxur), and pyrethroid (permethrin, deltamethrin and tetramethrin) insecticides were determined by bioassay. Larvae had more resistance to organophosphate insecticides than to carbamate insecticides. A low but significant resistance was observed for carbamate insecticides. The resistance to pyrethroid insecticides varied from sensitive to high. Starch gel electrophoresis revealed the presence of the overproduced esterases B1, A2B2, A8B8, A9B9, B10 and A11B11. The frequency of each overproduced esterases varied depending on its regional localities. Compared with published surveys, the C. pipiens complex, which exhibited a high polymorphism of applied esterase alleles in China, showed dynamic evolution over time under local specific insecticide selection. The results are discussed in the context of recent alterations to insecticide campaigns, and in the evolution of resistance genes in Chinese C. pipiens populations.

Sensitization of surfactants on the chemiluminescence reaction of fluorescein isothiocyanate labeled proteins

The effect of surfactants on fluorescein isothiocyanate (FITC)-bovine serum albumin (BSA)-hypochlorite (ClO(-)), FITC-human serum albumin (HSA)-ClO(-), FITC-ovoconalbumin (OVA)-ClO(-), FITC-hemoglobin (Hb)-ClO(-) systems were investigated with chemiluminescence method by the reversed phase flow injection. It was found that the chemiluminescence (CL) intensity of each system was increased greatly in the presence of cationic surfactants. Cethyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) is the optimal surfactant of these systems. The optimal conditions of the CL reaction and the optimal concentration of CTAB were examined and the function of cationic surfactant CTAB on the CL reaction was also discussed.

Comparison of solid-state-cultured and wood-cultured Antrodia camphorata in anti-inflammatory effects using NF-κB/luciferase inducible transgenic mice

PurposeAntrodia camphorata (AC), a highly valued polypore mushroom native only to Taiwan, has been traditionally used as a medicine for the treatment of food and drug intoxication, diarrhea, abdominal pain, hypertension, skin itching, and cancer. In this study, both of solid-state-cultured AC (S-AC) and wood-cultured AC (W-AC) were evaluated the anti-inflammatory effects on hyperoxia-induced lung injury in NF-κB-luciferase^+/+ transgenic mice.MethodsThe homozygous transgenic mice (NF-κB-luciferase^+/+) were randomly assigned to four groups for treatment (n = 6) including Normoxia/DMSO group, Hyperoxia/DMSO group, Hyperoxia/S-AC group, and Hyperoxia/W-AC group. After 72 h of hyperoxia, we examined the bioluminescence images, reactive oxygen species (ROS), the mRNA and protein expression levels of inflammation factors, and histopathological analyses of the lung tissues.ResultsHyperoxia-induced lung injury significantly increased the generation of ROS, the mRNA levels of IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β and IL-8, and the protein expression levels of IKKα/β, iNOS and IL-6. Pulmonary edema and alveolar infiltration of neutrophils was also observed in the hyperoxia-induced lung tissue. However, treatment with either S-AC or W-AC obviously decreased hyperoxia-induced generation of ROS and the expression of IL-6, TNF-α, IL-1β, IL-8, IKKα/β and iNOS compared to hyperoxia treatment alone. Lung histopathology also showed that treatment with either S-AC or W-AC significantly reduced neutrophil infiltration and lung edema compared to treatment with hyperoxia treated alone. To find out their major compounds, eburicoic acid and dehydroeburicoic acid were both isolated and identified from S-AC and W-AC by using HPLC, MS, and NMR spectrometry.ConclusionsThese results demonstrated that methanolic extracts both of S-AC and W-AC have excellent anti-inflammatory activities and thus have great potential as a source for natural health products.
