玉米大斑病菌HT—毒素与玉米细胞的膜脂过氧化研究

以土培玉米幼苗为材料,通过测定玉米大斑病菌HT－毒素处理后玉米叶片细胞膜透性和细胞内丙二醛（MDA）含量变化及其与细胞内过氧化物歧化酶（SOD）、过氧化物酶（POD）活性之间的关系来研究玉米细胞膜脂过氧化的程度。结果表明,HT－毒素胁迫后,亲和组合MDA含量上升,POD活性受到刺激,SOD活性受抑制较强;非亲和组合POD活性受到抑制,SOD活性受抑制较弱。HT－毒素对玉米叶片细胞膜有强烈的破坏作用,而且这种作用与毒素的浓度和毒素处理的时间呈正相关。试验结果初步推测在抗、感玉米的细胞膜上可能都有HT－毒素的结合位点,但毒素作用后幅地它们的活性氧代谢程度不同而导致了对HT－毒素敏感性的差异。     

禺毛茛复合体及其近缘种过氧化物酶同工酶研究

对国产禺毛茛（RanunculuscantoniensisDC．）复合体及其近缘种8个种的15个居群52个个体的根进行了过氧化物酶同工酶研究,结果表明：①居群内过氧化物酶谱略有变异。同工酶酶谱或多或少能显示居群特征。供试的8个种中没有任何2个种的酶谱完全一致,这说明在种级水平酶谱呈现出高度的分化现象。②根据染色体、孢粉和过氧化酶同工酶的资料推测,除R．silerifolius（2x）外,R．cantoniensis（4x）还有1个亲本。该亲本应具有“短m-型”染色体组,散沟和波状覆盖层的花粉,在其根的过氧化物酶酶谱中至少含A1、A2、C4和C64条酶带。③来自形态、染色体孢粉及同工酶的证据均证实R．vaginatus（5x）可能起源于（R,diffusus（4x）×R．sieboldii（6x）的杂交后代。     

Glycinebetaine-induced modulation of antioxidant enzymes activities and ion accumulation in two wheat cultivars differing in salt tolerance

Modulation of water relations, activities of antioxidant enzymes and ion accumulation was assessed in the plants of two wheat cultivars S-24 (salt tolerant) and MH-97 (moderately salt sensitive) subjected to saline conditions and glycinebetaine (GB) applied foliarly. Different levels of GB, i.e., 0 (unsprayed), 50 and 100 mM (in 0.10% Tween-20 solution) were applied to the wheat plants at the vegetative growth stage. Leaf water potential, leaf osmotic potential and turgor potential were decreased due to salt stress. Salt stress increased the Na⁺ and Cl⁻ accumulation coupled with a decrease in K⁺ and Ca²⁺ in the leaves and roots of both cultivars thereby decreasing tissue K⁺/Na⁺ and Ca²⁺/Na⁺ ratios. Furthermore, salt stress decreased the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), whereas it increased the activities of catalase (CAT) and peroxidase (POD) in both wheat cultivars. However, accumulation of GB in the leaves of both wheat cultivars was consistently increased with an increase in concentration of exogenous GB application under both non-saline and saline conditions. Accumulation of Na⁺ was decreased with an increase in K⁺ accumulation upon a consistent increase in GB accumulation under salt stress conditions thereby resulting in better K⁺/Na⁺ and Ca²⁺/Na⁺ ratios in the leaves and roots. High accumulation of GB and K⁺ mainly contributed to osmotic adjustment, which is one of the factors known to be responsible for improving growth and yield under salt stress. The activities of all antioxidant enzymes, SOD, CAT and POD were enhanced by GB application in cv. MH-97 under saline conditions, whereas all these except SOD were reduced in cv. S-24. It is likely that both applied GB and intrinsic SOD scavenged ROS in the tolerant cultivar thereby resulting into low activities of CAT and POD enzymes under salt stress. In conclusion, the adverse effects of salt stress on wheat can be alleviated by the exogenous application of 100 mM GB by modulating activities of antioxidant enzymes and changes in water relations and ion homeostasis. Furthermore, effectiveness of GB application on regulation of activities of antioxidant enzymes was found to be cultivar-specific.     

白粉病菌侵染苦瓜的生理机制

对大顶苦瓜感染白粉病的发病过程和生理机制进行研究。结果发现,感病苦瓜叶片质膜透性与对照相比增加较少,其增加量与病情指数相关性不高;叶绿素a、b、总叶绿素、类胡萝卜素含量随病情加重均下降,接种15d,与对照比分别下降72.6%、68.5%、71.5%和27.1%,其中叶绿素a、b和总叶绿素含量变化与病情指数相关性很高,以叶绿素a含量变化相关性最高;氧化酶活性测定结果表明,感病苦瓜叶片中POD和PPO活性与对照比上升,且随感病时间延长活性增加更多,接种15d,POD和PPO活性较对照增加528.5%和70.4%,两个酶活性变化与病情指数的相关性也很高。     

重金属镉（Cd）和增强UV—B辐射复合对大豆生长和生理代谢的影响

研究了大豆的生长、生物量、抗氧化酶活性和吲哚乙酸（IAA）氧化酶活性在Cd^2 、UV－B辐射和二者复合胁迫（Cd UV-B)下的变化。结果表明,Cd^2 和UV－B辐射都抑制大豆生长,并显著抑制根的伸长,二者复合后加强了对根伸长的抑制。UV－B辐射显著增强了POD、SOD活性,Cd^2 对POD活性影响不明显,但却拮抗UV－B对POD活性的诱导,SOD活性在各种胁迫下显著增强。虽然Cd%2 对叶片类黄酮含量影响不明显,但对UV－B诱导的类黄酮合成有一定影响。IAA氧化酶活性在复合作用下下降,可能是复合胁迫影响大豆生长的重要因素之一。

Changes in morphology and biochemical indices in browning callus derived from <Emphasis Type="Italic">Jatropha curcas</Emphasis> hypocotyls

Callus browning is a typical feature of callus cultures derived from the hypocotyl of Jatropha curcas. Brown callus results in decreased regenerative ability, poor growth and even death. In this study, we investigated the effect of browning on callus morphology and biochemical indices. Light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy showed striking differences in callus morphology. During browning, chlorophylls and carotenoids concentrations decreased steadily. Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) and peroxidase (POD) enzymatic activities patterns were similar during callus culture with a higher activity level at week 3 compared to week 2 or later weeks. Grey relation degree analysis indicated that PPO played a more important role than POD in enzymatic callus browning. Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis results showed differences between browning and non-browning callus. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry results showed that saturated and unsaturated fatty acid quantities differed significantly but there was little difference in fatty acid composition between non-browning and browning callus. Differences in 17, 18.4 and 25 kDa protein concentrations were also observed in browning and non-browning callus using sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis.     

Increased tolerance of rice to cold, drought and oxidative stresses mediated by the overexpression of a gene that encodes the zinc finger protein ZFP245

ZFP245 is a cold- and drought-responsive gene that encodes a zinc finger protein in rice. The ZFP245 protein localizes in the nucleus and exhibits trans-activation activity. Transgenic rice plants overexpressing ZFP245 were generated and found to display high tolerance to cold and drought stresses. The transgenic plants did not exhibit growth retardation, but showed growth sensitivity against exogenous abscisic acid, increased free proline levels and elevated expression of rice pyrroline-5-carboxylatesynthetase and proline transporter genes under stress conditions. Overproduction of ZFP245 enhanced the activities of reactive oxygen species-scavenging enzymes under stress conditions and increased the tolerance of rice seedlings to oxidative stress. Our data suggest that ZFP245 may contribute to the tolerance of rice plants to cold and drought stresses by regulating proline levels and reactive oxygen species-scavenging activities, and therefore may be useful for developing transgenic crops with enhanced tolerance to abiotic stress.
