巴西橡胶树栽培种质基因组C值测定和变异分析

为了解巴西橡胶树(Hevea brasiliensis)栽培种质的变异情况,以53份在云南植胶区综合性状表现较好的巴西橡胶树栽培种质为材料,采用流式细胞术测定了基因组C值,并进行了变异分析。结果表明,浅绿色嫩叶是巴西橡胶树流式细胞术测定的最适样品。53份巴西橡胶树栽培种质的细胞核DNA含量和基因组C值存在一定差异,基因组的平均C值是1.531 696×109 bp,最小的是CRTG-272种质(1.465 908×10~9 bp),最大的是CRTG-83种质(1.600 381×10~9 bp),变异系数较小(CV=0.035 5)。53份巴西橡胶树栽培种质中有47份为二倍体,6份为三倍体。在已测定基因组大小的40种大戟科(Euphorbiaceae)植物中,基因组大小变异较大(CV=1.248 6),与"C值悖论"观点相一致。因此,应用流式细胞术能快速、准确地测定巴西橡胶树细胞核DNA含量、基因组C值和染色体倍性。     

中国野生稻及栽培稻核糖体DNA第一转录间隔区序列分析及其系统学意义

用 PCR技术从产于我国的 3种野生稻和亚洲栽培稻的 2个亚种中特异地扩增和测序了 r DNA的第一转录间隔区。普通野生稻 (Oryza rufipogon)、药用野生稻 (O.officinalis)、疣粒野生稻 (O.granu-lata)和栽培稻的两个亚种 (O.sativa ssp.indica,O.sativa ssp.japonica)的 ITS1序列为 1 93bp、1 94bp、2 1 8bp、1 94bp和 1 94bp,它们的 G/ C含量为 69.3%～ 72 .7% ,序列中位点趋异率为 1 .5%～ 1 0 .6%。序列的相似性比较和简约性分支分析的结果表明 ,普通野生稻与栽培稻的两个亚种之间的亲缘关系最为密切 ;药用野生稻与普通野生稻和与栽培稻的两个亚种的相似性都为 82 % ,说明它与 AA基因组有一定的亲缘关系 ;疣粒野生稻与普通野生稻、药用野生稻和栽培稻两个亚种的亲缘关系相对较远 ,它在稻属中可能是一个系统地位较独特的类群。以 ITS1序列构建的 3种野生稻和 2个栽培稻亚种的系统发育关系与前人用同工酶、叶绿体 DNA、线粒体 DNA和核 DNA资料重建的稻属的系统发育关系基本一致     

普通小麦×栽培二棱大麦属间杂种及其回交后代选育和染色体的稳定性

以小麦为母本与大麦杂交,通过幼胚培养,获得小大麦属间杂种。杂种自交不育。以中国春和昌农82小麦的混合花粉给杂种授粉,得到回交一代(BC_1F_1),结实率为4.35％。以78380—1和密穗早小麦的混合花粉及小偃107分别与 BC_1F_1回交,获得回交二代(BC_2F_1),结实率为45.45％和31.25％。F_1体细胞染色体数为非整倍体,其变幅从18到27条之间,以2n=2l条较多。花粉母细胞减数分裂中期Ⅰ单价体细胞为37.0％,1—4个不等二价体细胞为63.0％。F_1形态类似普通小麦。回交后代表型多为亲本中间型,也有少数超亲现象。在BC_2F_4代中,整倍体细胞(2n=42)占大多数(80.83％),染色体构型比较复杂,主要有21Ⅲ,20Ⅲ+2 Ⅰ和19Ⅲ十4 Ⅰ三种,以21Ⅲ的细胞较多(75.03％)。从分离后代中选育出单体(21Ⅲ+1 Ⅰ)和二体(22Ⅲ)异附加系及具突出性状的新类型。     

The use of chemicals, antagonists, repellents and physical barriers for the control of Lycoriella auripila (Diptera: Sciaridae), a pest of the cultivated mushroom Agaricus bisporus

The sciarid, Lycoriella auripila, is a serious pest of commercial mushroom production. A series of trials demonstrated that the use of early, specifically-targeted, treatments of insecticides and/or antagonists and repellents, which distance treatment time from crop harvest, have the potential to play a useful part in the control of initial and subsequent generations of this pest. Of the treatments examined, those involving a drench treatment of the compost at filling (before pasteurisation) proved to be the most effective. Cyromazine and diflubenzuron were the most active insecticides tested, with cyromazine achieving a superior level of control of the initial infestation. Repellents and antifeedants were also effective, with calcium oxalate and sinapic acid both achieving about 50% control when applied at filling. Treatments applied later during the production cycle, unless in combination with a treatment at filling, were progressively less effective at controlling both the initial sciarid infestation and later generations of larvae. Multiple treatments caused greater reductions in fly populations than did the single treatments and continued to do so throughout the cropping cycle, the greatest reduction in the initial generation (79%) occurring with a triple treatment of cyromazine. With the exception of some diflubenzuron treatments, those that were effective resulted in increases in yield. The use of a physical paper barrier caused significant increases in both fly numbers and total yield.     

麻竹EST-SSR标记开发及其对慈竹变异类型的分析研究

利用麻竹(Dendrocalamus latiflorus)已有的EST序列,开发了一批EST-SSR分子标记,并用于慈竹(Bambusa emeiensis)栽培变异类型的多态性研究。结果表明,在麻竹9574个EST中找到了331个EST,含有381个SSR位点,SSR出现的频率为3.98%。EST-SSR的重复类型共有59个,其中2个核苷酸的重复最多,占63.8%,其次是3个核苷酸的重复序列。根据含有SSR的EST序列设计出了44对引物,对慈竹及其变异类型进行了扩增效率、多态性及通用性检测,其中37对引物能够扩增出稳定且清晰的条带,且扩增具有多态性,扩增片段长度主要集中在100～1000 bp,引物有效率达84.1%。遗传相似性分析结果显示,所检测样品间遗传距离为0.263～0.840,平均为0.552,其中‘黑笋慈竹’与‘琴丝慈竹’‘、蛇头慈竹’与‘龙头慈竹’之间的遗传距离较近,而‘罗汉慈竹’与其他样品的遗传距离最远。     

The complete chloroplast genome sequences of Solanum tuberosum and comparative analysis with Solanaceae species identified the presence of a 241-bp deletion in cultivated potato chloroplast DNA sequence

The complete nucleotide sequence of the chloroplast genome of potato Solanum tuberosum L. cv. Desiree was determined. The circular double-stranded DNA, which consists of 155,312 bp, contains a pair of inverted repeat regions (IRa, IRb) of 25,595 bp each. The inverted repeat regions are separated by small and large single copy regions of 18,373 and 85,749 bp, respectively. The genome contains 79 proteins, 30 tRNAs, 4 rRNAs, and unidentified genes. A comparison of chloroplast genomes of seven Solanaceae species revealed that the gene content and their relative positions of S. tuberosum are similar to the other six Solanaceae species. However, undefined open reading frames (ORFs) in LSC region were highly diverged in Solanaceae species except N. sylvestris. Detailed comparison was identified by numerous indels in the intergenic regions that were mostly located in the LSC region. Among them, a single large 241-bp deletion, was not associated with direct repeats and found in only S. tuberosum, clearly discriminates a cultivated potato from wild potato species Solanum bulbocastanum. The extent of sequence divergence may provide the basis for evaluating genetic diversity within the Solanaceae species, and will be useful to examine the evolutionary processes in potato landraces.     

三种农作物中镉积累与全硫含量的关系

采用田间试验方法,研究了土壤中镉浓度分别为2和5 mg·kg^-1时,向日葵(Helianthus annuus)、玉米(Zea mays)和大豆(Glycine max)从苗期至成熟期各生长阶段茎叶中镉积累与全硫含量的关系。结果表明,玉米和向日葵各生长时期茎中镉含量与其全硫含量呈极显著相关,叶片中镉含量与硫含量没有相关性,说明硫在植物镉的运输过程中发挥着重要的作用。土壤中镉浓度为2 mg·kg^-1时,籽实中镉含量从高到低的顺序是：向日葵＞大豆＞玉米;土壤中镉浓度为5 mg·kg^-1时,籽实中镉含量从高到低的顺序是：大豆＞向日葵＞玉米,与籽实中硫含量的高低顺序一致;玉米籽实中镉含量最低,在2个镉浓度处理下平均值仅为0.01和0.03 mg·kg^-1,低于国家标准食品中镉限量值。     

Characterization of a novel <Emphasis Type="Italic">Stenotrophomonas</Emphasis> isolate with high keratinase activity and purification of the enzyme

A feather-degrading bacterium was isolated from poultry decomposition feathers in China. The strain, named L1, showed significant feather-degrading activity because it grew and reproduced quickly on basal medium containing 10 g/L of native feather as the source of energy, carbon, and nitrogen. According to the phenotypic characteristics and 16S rRNA profile, the isolate belongs to Stenotrophomonas maltophilia. Keratinase activity of the isolate was determined during cultivation on raw feathers at different temperatures and initial pH. Maximum growth and feather-degrading activity of the bacterium were observed at 40°C and initial pH ranging from 7.5 to 8.0. The crude enzyme was purified by ammonium sulphate precipitation, Sephadex G-100 chromatographic and ceramic hydroxyapatite (CHT) chromatographic. Its molecular mass estimated as 35.2 kDa in SDS-PAGE. The enzyme had an optimum activity at the pH was 7.8 and the temperature was 40°C. The keratinase was wholly inhibited by a serine protease inhibitor, PMSF. Its activity was activated or inhibited by different metal ions. The keratinase activity of enzyme from strain L1 functioned on different keratins, such as feather, hair, wool, horn, and so on.
