柠檬酸处理对芒果采后生理活动的影响

有机酸的代谢对植物组织的成熟衰老关系密切 ,芒果采后用适当浓度的柠檬酸液处理 ,可明显减缓其采后的生理活动 ,呼吸高峰推迟出现 ,与芒果成熟密切相关的过氧化物酶、淀汾酶、多酚氧化酶等酶活性推迟上升 ,酶活高峰值也有所下降。但酸液浓度达 0 .5 %后过氧化物酶、淀粉酶的酶活高峰开始前移 ;而多酚氧化酶始终维持较低的酶活水平 ,几乎无酶活高峰出现     

芒果MSOC1基因的克隆与表达分析

MADS-box转录因子在多种植物的发育过程、特别是花器官的发育过程中发挥着重要的作用。为研究MADS-box转录因子在芒果花器官发育中的作用,利用RT-PCR和RACE技术分离到1个芒果的SOC1基因,命名为MSOC1(GenBank登录号为KP404094)。MSOC1编码区为733bp,编码223个氨基酸,蛋白质相对分子质量为25.6kD,理论等电点为8.96。序列比对和系统进化树分析表明,MSOC1具有保守的MADS-box及半保守的K区,属于MADS-box家族SOC1/TM3亚家族。组织特异性表达分析表明,MSOC1基因在芒果各个组织部位均有表达,但在茎、叶和花芽中表达量高,而在根和花中表达量低。

橘小实蝇对五个芒果品种的产卵偏好及清理落果防治效果研究

在2011年6—8月调查了橘小实蝇Bactrocera dorsalis(Hendel)对云南省元江县5个主要芒果品种的产卵为害情况,评估了清理落果对橘小实蝇的防治效果。结果表明树上果实和成熟落果受害率最高、产卵孔数量最多的品种是三年芒和红象牙芒;单位面积落果量(X)和监测雄虫数量(Y)显著相关(r1=0.884**,显著性P1=0.000),其回归方程为Y=-1.675+449.701X-204.933X2+27.046X3(R2=0.966,显著性水平P=0.000);累加虫量(X)与树上果实被害率(Y)的回归方程为Y=0.003X0.721(R2=0.953,P=0.000)。采拾落果可降低树上果实受害率约20%,减少田间虫口数44%左右。因此,清理落果对控制橘小实蝇田间种群数量、减少树上果实被害率有显著作用。     

Do weaver ants affect arthropod diversity and the natural‐enemy‐to‐pest ratio in horticultural systems?

High biodiversity is an important component of sustainable agricultural systems, and previous studies have found that increases in the diversity of the natural enemies of pests are associated with decreases in pest populations. Weaver ants are well known for their highly territorial and aggressive behaviour and for their control efficiency of many insect pests in tropical crop trees. Because of this, the ants have been used as a key component in integrated pest management (IPM) programmes for tropical crop trees. In implementing the IPM programmes, we received a number of enquiries related to whether weaver ants have negative effects on arthropod diversity and other natural enemies in orchard systems due to their aggressive behaviour. To answer these questions, we regularly sampled canopy arthropods in cashew and mango orchards in the Northern Territory of Australia in 1996, 2002 and 2003. We sampled, using a vacuum sampler, orchards with and without weaver ants. Cashew and mango plots with abundant weaver ants had similar or higher canopy arthropod and natural enemy diversity and similar ratios of natural enemies to insect pests, compared with plot where the weaver ant was absent. The study also showed that the application of insecticides reduced arthropod diversity and the ratio of natural enemies to insect pests in a mango orchard. However, insecticide spray did not affect natural enemy diversity and abundance, which may be related to a high immigration rate of natural enemies in small plots surrounded by areas that were not sprayed.     

芒果胶孢炭疽病菌应答菌丝机械损伤产生无性孢子的分子机制

胶孢炭疽菌(Colletotrichum gloeosporioides)是引发芒果(Mangifera indica)炭疽病的主要病原体。室内平板培养胶孢炭疽菌不产生或产生很少分生孢子的情况时有发生, 但菌丝在机械损伤后24-48小时会产生大量分生孢子。胶孢炭疽菌应答机械损伤诱导产孢的核心基因及关键代谢通路尚未见报道。基于转录组测序(RNA-seq)技术检测了芒果胶孢炭疽菌菌丝在机械损伤处理后2小时内5个时间点的基因表达变化, 对差异表达基因进行GO富集和KEGG代谢通路富集分析, 并对菌丝响应胁迫的基因动态表达数据进行分析。基于常微分方程ODE模型结合变量选择技术, 构建了动态基因调控网络。结果表明, 有417个差异表达基因参与应答胶孢炭疽菌菌丝机械损伤, 分属12个聚类模块, 有4条通路存在显著富集, 分别是丙酮酸代谢、硫代谢、黄曲霉素合成途径和二萜合成途径。结合功能注释筛选出12个应答菌丝损伤胁迫的核心基因。研究结果为后续深入开展芒果胶孢炭疽菌产孢和致病机理研究奠定了重要基础。     

Seasonality and host utilization of the invasive fruit fly, Bactrocera invadens (Dipt., Tephritidae) in central Tanzania

Abstract:  The temporal occurrence of the invasive and economically important pest fruit fly, Bactrocera invadens was studied in three agro-ecological areas of Morogoro Region, central Tanzania, during 2004–2005. Weekly and monthly trappings were carried out with methyl eugenol, protein bait and synthetic food attractant. Bactrocera invadens was permanently present at low and mid-altitudes (380–520 m a.s.l.) with peak periods coinciding with the fruiting season of mango ( Mangifera indica ) and guava ( Psidium guajava ). At high altitude (1650 m a.s.l.) its incidence was only temporal and apparently the result of dispersal from lower altitudes after the mango fruiting season. Rearing results showed mango, loquat ( Eriobotrya japonica ), guava and grapefruit ( Citrus  ×  paradisi ) to be the favoured commercial host fruits. Other Citrus species, cucurbits, papaya ( Carica papaya ) and avocado ( Persea americana ) were less favoured.     

Bovicin HC5 reduces thermal resistance of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris in acidic mango pulp

Aims:  To test the effect of bovicin HC5 against vegetative cells and endospores of Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris DSMZ 2498 in synthetic media and in acidic mango pulp.
Methods and Results:  Alicyclobacillus acidoterrestris was grown in synthetic medium at 40°C and pH 4·0. The effect on vegetative cells was assayed by adding bovicin HC5 to synthetic medium (40–160 AU ml⁻¹) or to mango pulp (100 AU ml⁻¹) at various pH values and determining the effect on growth (OD_600nm) and viable cell number, respectively. The effect of bovicin HC5 on spore germination and thermal sensitivity of A. acidoterrestris was tested in mango pulp (pH 4·0) containing 80 AU ml⁻¹ of bovicin HC5. Bovicin HC5 was bactericidal against vegetative cells of A. acidoterrestris at different pH values and showed sporicidal activity against endospores of this bacterium. When spores of A. acidoterrestris were heat treated in the presence of bovicin HC5, D -values decreased 77% to 95% compared to untreated controls at temperatures ranging from 80 to 95°C.
Conclusion:  Bovicin HC5 was bactericidal and sporicidal against A. acidoterrestrsi DSMZ 2498.
Significance and Impact of the Study:  These results indicated that bovicin HC5 has potential to prevent spoilage of acidic fruit juices by thermocidophilic spore-forming bacteria.
