RAPD fingerprints for identification and for taxonomic studies of elite poplar (Populus spp.) clones

RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) fingerprints have recently been used to estimate genetic and taxonomic relationships in plants. In this study RAPD analysis was performed on 32 clones belonging to different species of the genus Populus. Of these, 25 clones are registered in several countries for commercial use and, altogether, cover almost 50% of the worlds cultivated poplars. DNA was prepared from leaves and amplified by PCR using random oligonucleotide primers. Amplification products were separated by agarose-gel electrophoresis to reveal band polymorphisms. Four primers out of the 18 tested, were selected on the basis of the number and frequency of the polymorphisms produced. With these a total of 120 different DNA bands were reproducibly obtained, 92% of which were polymorphic. The polymorphisms were scored and used in band-sharing analyses to identify genetic relationships. With a few but interesting exceptions, these are consistent with the present taxonomy of the genus Populus and with the known predigrees of cultivated poplars. Moreover, the results show that RAPD analysis allows one to discriminate among all tested clones and can, therefore, be recommended as a convenient tool to defend plant breeders rights.     

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.

Optimizing the generation of random amplified polymorphic DNAs in chrysanthemum

Many conditions of the RAPD reaction procedure may influence the result. This paper presents rapid detection of influential factors with a fractional factorial experiment. A more extensive study of these factors is also presented. Polymerase brand, thermal cycler brand, annealing temperature, and primer, are important factors in obtaining good DNA yields and optimal fragment patterns. Each primer has its optimal annealing temperature, and this is not correlated with the GC content of the primer. Optimal species-primer combinations have to be found by trial and error.     

Effect of oxygen abstraction on the peroxidase–luminol–perborate system: Relevance to the HRP enhanced chemiluminescence mechanism

Abstraction of oxygen from the HRP enhanced chemiluminescence system has no significant effect on the chemiluminescence generated. It is, therefore, proposed that in the peroxidase-luminol-perborate system at pH 7.3, chemiluminescence is generated by a direct reaction of diazaquinones with hydrogen peroxide and not, as generally assumed, from the reaction of luminol radicals with the molecular oxygen.

丙型肝炎病毒RNA打点杂交检测方法同RT－PCR方法的比较

采用ＨＣＶ基因组结构区Ｃ区ｃＤＮＡ探针和非结构区ＮＳ３－４区ｃＤＮＡ探针,建立了用打点杂交（ｄｏｔｂｌｏｔｈｙｂｒｉｄｉｚａｔｉｏｎ）检测血清中ＨＣＶＲＮＡ的方法,同采用ＨＣＶ基因组５’端非编码区的一对寡核苷酸引物通过逆转录－聚合酶链式反应（ＲＴ－ＰＣＲ）检测血清中ＨＣＶＲＮＡ的方法相比较,发现两种方法都能快速早期和特异地检出血清中ＨＣＶＲＮＡ,但ＲＴ－ＰＣＲ法敏感性优于ＲＮＡ打点杂交法。对于无血清学指标的慢性ＮＡＮＢ肝炎病人的诊断,可采用这两种方法。这两种方法的敏感性在很大程度上依赖于引物和探针的敏感性,以及ＲＮＡ提取方法。ＲＴ－ＰＣＲ法适用于诊断病毒血症和复制,打点杂交法适用于研究ＨＣＶＲＮＡ量的变化,对治疗的评价,以及为实验筛选较高滴度的ＨＣＶＲＮＡ阳性样本。
