Identification of RAPD markers linked to a major rust resistance gene block in common bean

Rust in bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.), caused byUromyces appendiculatus (Pers.) Unger var.appendiculatus [ =U. phaseoli (Reben) Wint.], is a major disease problem and production constraint in many parts of the world. The predominant form of genetic control of the pathogen is a series of major genes which necessitate the development of efficient selection strategies. Our objective was focused on the identification of RAPD (random amplified polymorphic DNA) markers linked to a major bean rust resistance gene block enabling marker-based selection and facilitating resistance gene pyramiding into susceptible bean germplasm. Using pooled DNA samples of genotyped individuals from two segregating populations, we identified two RAPD markers linked to the gene block of interest. One such RAPD, OF10₉₇₀ (generated by a 5-GGAAGCTTGG-3 decamer), was found to be closely linked (2.15±1.50 centi Morgans) in coupling with the resistance gene block. The other identified RAPD, OI19₄₆₀ (generated by a 5-AATGCGGGAG-3 decamer), was shown to be more tightly linked (also in coupling) than OF10₉₇₀ as no recombinants were detected among 97 BC₆F₂ segregating individuals in the mapping population. Analysis of a collection of resistant and susceptible cultivars and experimental lines, of both Mesoamerican and Andean origin, revealed that: (1) recombination between OF10₉₇₀ and the gene block has occurred as evidenced by the presence of the DNA fragment in several susceptible genotypes, (2) recombination between OI19₄₆₀ and the gene block has also occurred indicating that the marker is not located within the gene block itself, and (3) marker-facilitated selection using these RAPD markers, and another previously identified, will enable gene pyramiding in Andean germplasm and certain Mesoamerican bean races in which the resistance gene block does not traditionally exist. Observations of variable recombination among Mesoamerican bean races suggested suppression of recombination between introgressed segments and divergent recurrent backgrounds.Research supported by the Michigan Agricultural Research Station and the USDA-ARS.

Nonlinear effect of dynamic self-organization in macromolecular systems caused by photocontrolled electron flux

We use the electron-conformational interaction approach to develop a physical model which self-consistently describes the photomobilized electron transfer kinetics and structure conformational transitions in reaction centers (RCs) of purple bacteria. We consider the kinetics of electron transition from pigment onto primary acceptor and the subsequent charge recombination accounting for the change of distance between the above-mentioned cofactors. It is shown that, given natural values of RC parameters, the kinetic constant's dependence on the acting light intensity is monotone. As opposed to the previous case, similar dependencies for the chain of electron transfer between primary and secondary quinone acceptors revealed anS-like relationship. This can lead to bistability of the RC optical transmission coefficient and a fundamental dependence of charge recombination kinetics upon the prehistory of the RC's interaction with exciting radiation.     

In vivo photosynthetic electron transport does not limit photosynthetic capacity in phosphate-deficient sunflower and maize leaves

The effects of extreme phosphate (Pi) deficiency during growth on the contents of adenylates and pyridine nucleotides and the in vivo photochemical activity of photosystem II (PSII) were determined in leaves of Helianthus annuus and Zea mays grown under controlled environmental conditions. Phosphate deficiency decreased the amounts of ATP and ADP per unit leaf area and the adenylate energy charge of leaves. The amounts of oxidized pyridine nucleotides per unit leaf area decreased with Pi deficiency, but not those of reduced pyridine nucleotides. This resulted in an increase in the ratio of reduced to oxidized pyridine nucleotides in Pi-deficient leaves. Analysis of chlorophyll a fluorescence at room temperature showed that Pi deficiency decreased the efficiency of excitation capture by open PSII reaction centres (φ_e), the in vivo quantum yield of PSII photochemistry (φ_PSII) and the photochemical quenching co-efficient (q_P), and increased the non-photochemical quenching co-efficient (q_N) indicating possible photoinhibitory damage to PSII. Supplying Pi to Pi-deficient sunflower leaves reversed the long-term effects of Pi-deficiency on PSII photochemistry. Feeding Pi-sufficient sunflower leaves with mannose or FCCP rapidly produced effects on chlorophyll a fluorescence similar to long-term Pi-deficiency. Our results suggest a direct role of Pi and photophosphorylation on PSII photochemistry in both long-and short-term responses of photosynthetic machinery to Pi deficiency. The relationship between φ_PSII and the apparent quantum yield of CO₂ assimilation determined at varying light intensity and 21 kPa O₂ and 35 Pa CO₂ partial pressures in the ambient air was linear in Pi-sufficient and Pi-deficient leaves of sunflower and maize. Calculations show that there was relatively more PSII activity per mole of CO₂ assimilated by the Pi-deficient leaves. This indicates that in these leaves a greater proportion of photosynthetic electrons transported across PSII was used for processes other than CO₂ reduction. Therefore, we conclude that in vivo photosynthetic electron transport through PSII did not limit photosynthesis in Pi-deficient leaves of sunflower and maize and that the decreased CO₂ assimilation was a consequence of a smaller ATP content and lower energy charge which restricted production of ribulose, 1-5, bisphosphate, the acceptor for CO₂.     

Supported PCR: an efficient procedure to amplify sequences flanking a known DNA segment

We describe a novel modification of the polymerase chain reaction for efficient in vitro amplification of genomic DNA sequences flanking short stretches of known sequence. The technique utilizes a target enrichment step, based on the selective isolation of biotinylated fragments from the bulk of genomic DNA on streptavidin-containing support. Subsequently, following ligation with a second universal linker primer, the selected fragments can be amplified to amounts suitable for further molecular studies. The procedure has been applied to recover T-DNA flanking sequences in transgenic tomato plants which could subsequently be used to assign the positions of T-DNA to the molecular map of tomato. The method called supported PCR (sPCR) is a simple and efficient alternative to techniques used in the isolation of specific sequences flanking a known DNA segment.     

Immobilization ofβ-fructofuranosidase fromAureobasidium on DEAE-cellulose

Summary -Fructofuranosidase, which produces fructo-oligosaccharides (1-kestose and nystose) from sucrose, was purified fromAureobasidium and immobilized on DEAE-cellulose at especially high efficiency (95%). The enzymatic profiles of the immobilized enzyme were almost identical to those of the native form except that the stability was slightly improved. The immobilized enzyme was stable during long-term continuous reaction for up to 360 h.
