以十和田/昆明小白谷225个F14家系为作图群体,在云南省弥勒县(正常生长环境)、嵩明县(自然低温胁迫环境)、丽江市(自然低温胁迫环境)等3个试点不同年份共5种不同生长环境下进行了水稻主穗和分蘖穗穗伸出度的异地鉴定,并利用SSR标记对水稻穗伸出度进行了QTL分析。检测结果表明,在5种不同的生长环境下共检测到12个与水稻穗伸出度相关的QTL,分别分布于第1(2个QTLs)、2、4、6(3个QTLs)、7(3个QTLs)、9(2个QTLs)号染色体,对表型的贡献率为3.72%~22.17%。其中与主穗穗伸出度相关的QTL共11个,与分蘖穗穗伸出度相关的QTL共7个,其中6个在主穗和分蘖穗上均检测到。在与主穗穗伸出度相关的11个QTL中,q PE-7-1在4种环境下均被检测到,解释的表型变异为9.49%~22.17%;q PE-1-1、q PE-1-2、q PE-6-1和q PE-9-2 4个QTL在2种环境下均被检测到。在与分蘖穗穗伸出度相关的7个QTL中,q PE-1-2、q PE-7-1和q PE-6-1 3个QTL在2种环境中均被检测到,解释的表型变异率分别为4.35%~12.64%、13.22%~20.89%和11.49%~15.73%。     

Receptor binding and pH stability — How influenza A virus hemagglutinin affects host-specific virus infection

Influenza A virus strains adopt different host specificities mainly depending on their hemagglutinin (HA) protein. Via HA, the virus binds sialic acid receptors of the host cell and, upon endocytic uptake, HA triggers fusion between the viral envelope bilayer and the endosomal membrane by a low pH-induced conformational change leading to the release of the viral genome into the host cell cytoplasm. Both functions are crucial for viral infection enabling the genesis of new progeny virus.     

Interference Between Tobacco necrosis virus and Turnip crinkle virus in Nicotiana benthamiana

Mixed infections of Nicotiana benthamiana plants by Tobacco necrosis virus (TNV) and Turnip crinkle virus (TCV) exhibited an interference interaction. Accumulation of TNV (+)RNA as well as capsid protein in mixed infection were considerably lower than that of singly infected plants. There were also a slight reduction in the levels of TCV (+)RNA and capsid protein in doubly infected plants, which displayed the concentration of both viruses decreased in dually infected plants. Tissue immunoblot analysis of systemic N. benthamiana leaves infected by TNV and TCV singly or doubly showed the interference between the two viruses in situ, which exhibited the decrease of both viruses in doubly infected leaves although the distribution of them did not change remarkably. These results were consistent with the hybridization analysis of viral genomic RNA and coat protein. Both cross‐protection test and mixed infection of the two viruses confirmed TCV had relatively stronger interference to the infection of TNV. Interference infection by TNV and TCV induced higher increase in the levels of cytochrome pathway respiration and alternative pathway respiration in host plants, especially the latter. Interference often occurred in different strains of one kind of virus or two different closely related viruses in one genus. Our results showed that interference could also occur in different viruses belonging to different genera.

Dodecameric structure and ATPase activity of the human TIP48/TIP49 complex

TIP48 and TIP49 are two related and highly conserved eukaryotic AAA(+) proteins with an essential biological function and a critical role in major pathways that are closely linked to cancer. They are found together as components of several highly conserved chromatin-modifying complexes. Both proteins show sequence homology to bacterial RuvB but the nature and mechanism of their biochemical role remain unknown. Recombinant human TIP48 and TIP49 were assembled into a stable high molecular mass equimolar complex and tested for activity in vitro. TIP48/TIP49 complex formation resulted in synergistic increase in ATPase activity but ATP hydrolysis was not stimulated in the presence of single-stranded, double-stranded or four-way junction DNA and no DNA helicase or branch migration activity could be detected. Complexes with catalytic defects in either TIP48 or TIP49 had no ATPase activity showing that both proteins within the TIP48/TIP49 complex are required for ATP hydrolysis. The structure of the TIP48/TIP49 complex was examined by negative stain electron microscopy. Three-dimensional reconstruction at 20 A resolution revealed that the TIP48/TIP49 complex consisted of two stacked hexameric rings with C6 symmetry. The top and bottom rings showed substantial structural differences. Interestingly, TIP48 formed oligomers in the presence of adenine nucleotides, whilst TIP49 did not. The results point to biochemical differences between TIP48 and TIP49, which may explain the structural differences between the two hexameric rings and could be significant for specialised functions that the proteins perform individually.     

黄土高原丘陵区不同生境小叶杨人工林物种多样性及其群落稳定性分析

通过样地调查,对黄土高原丘陵沟壑区处于阴坡、半阴坡、半阳坡、阳坡4种生境条件下,经过30年发育的小叶杨人工林物种多样性,群落结构动态和土壤水分养分效应进行了系统研究,结果表明:(1)不同生境小叶杨人工林总体上物种丰富度、多样性指数和均匀度指数均呈现出阴坡>半阴坡>半阳坡>阳坡的趋势,且林内物种多样性指数表现为:草本层>灌木层;(2)不同生境条件下的小叶杨人工林年龄结构分析表明,尽管阴坡小叶杨长势相对较好,但更新幼苗数量相当有限,很难实现种群的自我更新,不适合作为人工林培育;(3)土壤含水量和养分因坡向不同而呈现出明显的差异,尽管阴坡和半阴坡的水分、养分条件相对较好,但也出现了枯梢、病虫害等衰老特征,因此阴坡、半阴坡的生境对小叶杨来说也不合适.未来应该对现有林地在保护的前提下,间伐衰老个体,补植和引入乡土物种,进行天然化培育.
