铝对水稻幼苗的生理影响

以水稻幼苗为材料研究了铝的植物毒性。将不同浓度的 AlCl 加入培养液,对幼苗处理30天。10ppm 以上的铝明显抑制水稻幼苗根和地上部分的生长。5.0ppm 以上铝可引起毒害症状。铝对根的毒害作用大于对地上部分的作用。铝主要积累在根部,少部分转移到地上部分。5.0ppm 以上的铝对叶绿体 Hill 反应和光合磷酸化作用以及根线粒体呼吸和氧化磷酸化作用均有较明显抑制作用。钙对铝的此种抑制作用有一定拮抗作用。     

Primary structure of a pheromone-binding protein from Antheraea pernyi: homologies with other ligand-carrying proteins

Summary An antennal cDNA clone encoding the complete sequence (163 amino acids) of a pheromone-binding protein precursor from the male silk moth, Antheraea pernyi, was isolated using oligonucleotide probes. The cloned cDNA was expressed and the translation product detected by specific antibodies. The deduced protein sequence consists of a signal peptide of 21 amino acids and a mature binding protein of 142 amino acid residues. The predicted structure of this protein is homologous to binding-proteins from different insect species which have previously been identified, but shows no similarities to odorant-binding proteins from vertebrates, suggesting that soluble odorant-binding proteins in insects and vertebrates represent an evolutionary convergence.Abbreviations PBP pheromone-binding protein - OBP odorant-binding protein - cDNA complentary DNA - poly(A ⁺) RNA polyadenylated RNA - SSC 0.15 M sodium chloride+0.015 M sodium citrate - SDS-PAGE sodium dodecylsulfate polyacrylamide gelelectrophoresis     

Molecular cloning and restriction enzyme analysis of a long repetitive DNA sequence in rice

Rice long repetitive DNA (9–20 kbp) reassociating at Cot 50 M.s was cloned in pBR325. Out of several recombinants (Cam^r Amp^r Tet^s), only a few were selected randomly for further characterization. The insert size in all these clones was 3–4 kbp. Restriction enzyme analysis showed the absence ofEcoRI andBclI sites, presence of a singlePstI andPvuII site and multiple sites forAluI in 3 clones namely pRLl, pRL7 and pRL10. TheBamHI-PstI fragment of about 0.4 kbp in the pRL7 insert DNA (pRL7-0.4 kbp) was subcloned in M13mpl8 and partially sequenced using Sanger’s dideoxynucleotide chain termination method. Dot matrix comparison of this sequence with rice rDNA sequences revealed low homology with the 25 S rDNA sequence of rice, however, hybridisation did not indicate any homology.     

Development of microsatellite markers and characterization of simple sequence length polymorphism (SSLP) in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Microsatellite markers containing simple sequence repeats (SSR) are a valuable tool for genetic analysis. Our objective is to augment the existing RFLP map of rice with simple sequence length polymorphisms (SSLP). In this study, we describe 20 new microsatellite markers that have been assigned to positions along the rice chromosomes, characterized for their allelic diversity in cultivated and wild rice, and tested for amplification in distantly related species. Our results indicate that the genomic distribution of microsatellites in rice appears to be random, with no obvious bias for, or clustering in particular regions, that mapping results are identical in intersubspecific and interspecific populations, and that amplification in wild relatives ofOryza sativa is reliable in species most closely related to cultivated rice but becomes less successful as the genetic distance increases. Sequence analysis of SSLP alleles in three relatedindica varieties demonstrated the clustering of complex arrays of SSR motifs in a single 300-bp region with independent variation in each. Two microsatellite markers amplified multiple loci that were mapped onto independent rice chromosomes, suggesting the presence of duplicated regions within the rice genome. The availability of increasing numbers of mapped SSLP markers can be expected to increase the power and resolution of genome analysis in rice.     

肝再生的调控及原癌基因表达

肝脏再生过程中受到多种体液因素的调控。肝细胞生长因子（ＨＧＦ）、肝刺激因子（ＨＳＳ）等对肝细胞有促分裂作用;转化生长因子β１（ＴＧＦβ１）等则具有抑制作用。此外,肝再生还需要去甲肾上腺素（ＮＥ）、胰岛素等辅助分裂原的存在,共同调节肝再生。肝细胞分裂增殖与原癌基因表达密切相关。肝细胞从静息期进入细胞周期,以及在整个细胞周期中,某些原癌基因有特征性的表达。     

内源植物激素与光敏核不育水稻农垦58S育性的关系

采用气相色谱－质谱联用选择离子检测（ＧＣ－ＭＳ－ＳＩＭ）技术,定性、定量分析了光敏核不育水稻农垦５８Ｓ（Ｏｒｙｚａ ｓａｔｉｖａ Ｌ． ｓｕｂｓｐ． ｊａｐｏｎｉｃａ）及对照品种“农垦５８”在长（ＬＤ）、短（ＳＤ）日照处理下,不同发育时期顶端全展叶片中内源ＩＡＡ、ＡＢＡ 和生殖器官中内源ＩＡＡ、ＡＢＡ、ＧＡ１、ＧＡ４ 的含量变化。实验结果表明：在ＬＤ 处理下,农垦５８Ｓ雌雄蕊形成期的叶片和花粉母细胞形成期的幼穗中ＩＡＡ 相继发生亏缺;农垦５８Ｓ－ＬＤ花粉母细胞形成期、单核期和扬花期,生殖器官中内源ＡＢＡ 均低于农垦５８Ｓ－ＳＤ 的含量,“农垦５８”则与此相反;扬花期不育花药中内源ＧＡ１ 和ＧＡ４ 含量剧减。据此认为：生殖器官中早期ＩＡＡ 的亏损、ＡＢＡ 含量剧减伴随着抗逆性能的减弱及ＧＡＳ的不足共同导致了农垦５８Ｓ的雄性败育     

多胚水稻ApⅢ（双13）的胚胎学观察

对多胚水稻（Ｏｒｙｚａ ｓａｔｉｖａ Ｌ．）ＡｐⅢ的大量成熟颖果、人工萌发的幼苗和开花后３～５ ｄ 的幼嫩颖果进行的整体解剖和显微制片观察表明：ＡｐⅢ的５０００粒成熟颖果中,８９．０％ 含单胚单苗,８．９％ 和１．２％分别含双胚双苗和三胚三苗;７００多粒幼嫩颖果中,９０．０％ ～９５．０％ 含单胚,５．０％ ～７．０％ 含双胚。因制片的数目有限,未见到含三胚的;在含单胚和多胚颖果中,胚均位于同一胚囊的珠孔端,未见到胚囊以外存在不定胚。根据上述结果,似可以认为ＡｐⅢ单粒颖果的双胚和三胚是由同一胚囊内的卵细胞和１或２个助细胞受精或不受精发育而来的
