Isolation of recombinant field strains of Marek’s disease virus integrated with reticuloendotheliosis virus genome fragments

Two Marek's disease virus (MDV) field strains were isolated from chickens with tumors independently from Guangdong and Guangxi provinces, and it was confirmed that there were no co-infections with reticuloendotheliosis viruses (REV) in chicken embryo fibroblast cells (CEF) in indirect fluorescence antibody test (IFA) with REV-specific monoclonal antibodies. By dot blot hybridization and PCR of genomic DNA of MDV-infected CEF, it was indicated that LTR fragments of REV genome were integrated into genome of these two MDV field strains. To amplify and clone the integrated REV LTR with MDV sequence at the junction, 4 primers from REV LTR and 7 primers from MDV genome fragment with REV LTR insertion hot points were synthesized and 28 (4x7) pairs of primers (one from REV and another from MDV for each pair) were used in PCR while using the genomic DNA of both strains as the templates. The sequence data demonstrated that both recombinant field strains contained the same REV LTR inserted into MDV at the identical sites in US fragment of the genomes. From the above, it was speculated that both recombinant field MDVs were originated from a same recombinant virus and spread among chicken flocks in two provinces.     

利用mRNA差别显示技术分析枸杞体细胞胚发生早期基因的差别表达

本研究选用枸杞体细胞胚发生体系中的继代愈伤组织(对照)、胚性愈伤组织和早期胚体为实验材料,提取细胞总RNA,在12种锚定真核生物mRNA3'末端的OligodT12VN中,随机选用OligodT12GA为引物合成了以上三种材料的cDNA第一链,以此cDNA为模板,用随机引物进行PCR扩增,选择差别表达的片段。我们选用了OPA、OPH、OPK和OPB四组的60个随机引物对所得的c DNA进行了PCR扩增,得到了三个在体细胞胚发生早期组织中基因特异表达的片段。结果表明,在体细胞胚发生早期有胚胎发生特异性基因的表达,而且这种特异表达的基因在继代愈伤组织中没有表达,说明植物的体细胞胚发生过程就是细胞内基因差别表达的结果。 Abstract:Embryogenic calli and early embryo can be obtained from both auxin and auxin-free medium.The analysis of differential gene expression in early somatic embryogenesis has been hindered by above-mentioned material.The modifications of the recently described mRNA differential display method were reported and differential gene expression in early slmatic embryogenesis was analyzed.We have obtained three differential bands of cDNA in early somatic embryogenesis.The results indicate that gene expression has temperal and spalil order in early somatic embryogenesis of Lycium barbarum L.Plant somatic embryogenesis is the results of differential gene expression in cell.     

枸杞胚性细胞分化的超微结构和ATP酶的细胞化学定位研究

枸杞的胚性细胞多由愈伤组织表层的薄壁细胞分化而来,与愈伤组织中未分化的细胞相比,胚性细胞呈卵圆形,细胞核大,核仁明显,细胞质浓厚并含有丰富的细胞器,细胞壁较薄,细胞间有胞间连丝相通;胚性细胞发育到晚期细胞壁加厚,胞间连丝逐渐消失,细胞核向一端偏移,有大液泡形成;胚性细胞的第一次分裂多为均等分裂,形成二细胞原胚,继续分裂形成多细胞原胚;组成多细胞原胚胚体的细胞核大,核形状不规则,细胞质浓厚,细胞器丰富,在质体中出现淀粉的积累。在胚性细胞发育的早期,ATP酶活性主要位于质膜上,随后在液泡内和细胞核中都出现ATP酶活性的分布;随着胚性细胞壁的加厚,细胞壁加厚处和细胞间隙中也出现ATP酶活性反应;当多细胞原胚形成后,ATP酶活性反应主要定位于液泡膜上。由此分析了结构特征、ATP酶活性定位变化与胚性细胞分化的关系。     

小麦抗锈变异体的RAPD分子验证

将长穗偃麦草DNA导入普通小麦甘麦8号,在其后代出现广泛变异,并从中选育出两个优良的抗条锈病的姊妹变异体。本实验以原供体和受体作为对照,对两个变异体进行了RAPD分子验证,其主要结果为：两个变异体的大多数引物扩增产物带型类同于受体,而与供体带型差异显著;在81个引物中有2个引物检测出了DNA的多态生,主要表现为变异体90001-17中1条带活性不仅超过受体,而且也远超过90001-1的相应带活性,同时两个变异体都出现了1条供体和受体都没有的新带,分子量约为1044bp;另一引物扩增后,变异体90001-17和90001-1分别出现了2条和1条特异性带,分子量约为1073bp和1020bp,此外在两个变异体阳极端带明显被激活,而受体中1条分子量约为968bp的带在变异体中活性降低或消失等。从而表明抗锈变异体9001-17和90001-1的形成是供体的DNA片段进入受体基因组的结果。     

利用早孕绒毛组织和PCR技术检测先天性人巨细胞病毒感染

人的巨细胞病毒(Human cytomegalovirus,HCMV)已成为引起宫内感染的重要原因。在新生儿中先天性HCMV的感染率为0.2-2.2％。为了建立一种可行的先天性HCMV感染产前诊断技术,我们利用早孕绒毛组织和聚合酶链反应(Polymerase chain reaction,PCR)技术对孕早期的先天性HCMV感染进行了研究。现简报如下:

六种鲤科鱼类核仁组织者区的研究

采用银染及荧光染色技术,对6种鲤科鱼的NORs进行了研究。结果表明：这6种鲤科鱼中瓦氏雅罗鱼、花 、麦穗鱼、白甲鱼具有2个NORs,长春鳊、墨头鱼具有4个NORs。根据实验研究结果对鲤科鱼类NORs多态性及演化等进行了讨论。 The NORs were examined in 6 species of Cyprinidae by both silver nitrate and chromomycin A3,which led to the detections of 2 NORs in 4 species(Leuciscus waleckii,Hemibarbus maculates,Pseudorasbora parva,and Varicorhinus simus)and of 4 NORs in 2 species (Parabramis pekinensis,and Garra pingi pingi).Based on our results,the variation and evolution of fish NORs were discussed.     

家山黧豆及其毒素ODAP的研究

家山黧豆作为人类的食物及动物的饲料,最早可追溯到新石器时代。长期以来,因其营养丰富,具有耐旱、耐寒等优良生产性状,广受世界各地的青睐。特别是在大旱年份,在其它粮食作物绝收的情况下,仍有较好的收成,因此,被视为干旱及半干旱地区首选的优良作物。但由于其含有毒素β-ODAP,使山黧豆的种植受到限制。近年来,由于人类对肉质品的量与质的多元化的需求,家山黧豆这一潜在的、丰产的、高营养的豆科作物,已引起各国学者的广泛关注。从家山黧豆在植物学、遗传学、分子生物学、生态学、营养学、山黧豆中毒、毒理学、毒素ODAP、ODAP的分析方法、ODAP的生物合成途径、养殖业等几个方面的研究进展作了简要综述。
