用RAPD检测华山新麦草自然居群的遗传结构和居群分化

华山新麦草特产于我国陕西华山,为国家一级重点保护植物。应用RAPD技术,用2 0条随机引物对黄埔峪、仙峪、华山峪3个居群不同海拔的13个亚居群共2 6 6个华山新麦草取样个体进行扩增,共得12 2个扩增片段。平均每个引物得到的扩增片段数为6 .1(2～10 )。实验数据的统计分析表明:黄埔峪居群的多态性位点比率为6 0 .6 6 % ,仙峪居群的多态性位点比率为90 .98% ,华山峪居群的多态性位点比率为95 .0 8% ,总的多态性位点比率为95 .0 8% ,说明华山新麦草具有较高的遗传变异性。Shannon多样性指数(0 .330 6 )和基因分化系数(GST=0 .32 6 3)揭示了华山新麦草居群遗传变异多存在于亚居群内。华山新麦草亚居群间的基因流N m=1.0 32 2 ,低于一般风媒传粉植物(N m=5 .2 4 )的基因流水平。亚居群间平均的遗传距离为0 .15 71(变化范围:0 .0 0 2 2～0 .2 90 1) ,最大的遗传距离值出现在黄埔峪亚居群(hp1)和华山峪高海拔亚居群(h8)之间,仙峪亚居群与华山峪高海拔亚居群之间以及华山峪高海拔亚居群与低海拔亚居群之间的遗传距离值也较大。遗传距离与海拔垂直距离之间的相关性分析表明二者有显著的相关性(p<0 .0 1)。聚类分析和主成分分析也显示华山新麦草自然居群已发生明显分化,主要表现为黄埔峪居群、仙峪居群与华山峪居群     

Floral structure, breeding system and fruit-set in the threatened sub-shrub Tetratheca juncea Smith (Tremandraceae)

Tetratheca juncea Smith (Tremandraceae) has undergone a range contraction of approx. 50 km in the last 100 years and is now listed as a vulnerable sub-shrub restricted to the central and north coast regions of New South Wales, Australia. There are approx. 250 populations in a 110 km north-south distribution and populations are usually small with fewer than 50 plants/clumps. The reproductive ecology of the species was studied to determine why seed-set is reportedly rare. Flowers are bisexual, odourless and nectarless. Flowers are presented dependentally and there are eight stamens recurved around the pistil. Anthers are poricidal, contain viable pollen and basally contain a deep-red tapetal fluid that is slightly oily. Thus flowers are presented for buzz pollinators, although none were observed at flowers during our study. The species was found to be facultatively xenogamous with only one in 50 glasshouse flowers setting seed autogamously, i.e. without pollinator assistance. Field studies revealed fertile fruit in 24 populations but production varied significantly across sites from exceedingly low (0.6 fruits per plant clump) to low (17 fruits per plant clump). Fruit-set ranged from 0 to 65 %, suggesting that pollen vectors exist or that autogamy levels in the field are variable and higher than glasshouse results. Fruit production did not vary with population size, although in three of the five populations in the south-west region more than twice as much fruit was produced as in populations elsewhere. A moderately strong relationship between foliage volume and fruit : flower ratios suggests that bigger plants may be more attractive than smaller plants to pollinators. A review of Tetratheca pollination ecology revealed that several species are poorly fecund and pollinators are rare. The habitat requirements for Tetratheca, a genus of many rare and threatened species, is discussed.     

芥蓝与芸苔属几个常见种花粉形态的比较

本文通过对芸苔属(Brassica L.)几个常见种芥蓝(B. alboglabra Bailey)、芥菜(B.juncea(L. )Coss.)、油菜(B. campestris L.)和花椰菜(B. oleracea var. botrytis L.)等花粉形态的光学显微镜和扫描电镜的观察比较,得知它们的花粉形态特征比较一致。而与杨萍等关于芥蓝的花粉形态特征——无极,具散孔这一报道截然不同;亦与黄增泉(Huang Tseng-chieng)关于芥菜的花粉特征——不具萌发孔的报道不同。作者的研究表明,上述几个种的花粉均具3沟,沟长而明显。外壁具网状纹饰,网眼较粗。但种与种间其花粉大小有所不同。作者不同意杨萍等关于“由于芥蓝的花粉形态与芸苔属其它种的花粉明显区别,说明芥蓝与芸苔属其它种不很亲缘”的观点,而认为,从花粉形态看,芥蓝与芸苔属其它种是基本一致的,把它们置于同一自然类群是合理的。     

新疆多年生小麦族植物染色体数的观察

本文对1987年采集于新疆的多年生小麦族(Triticeae Dum. )属种进行了细胞学观察。该地区多年生小麦族各属种的染色体数目变化范围是从2n=14到2n=84,前者主要存在于大麦属(Hordeum)、新麦草属(Psathyrostachys),而后者全部集中于赖草属(Leymus).其中染色体数目为2n=28和2n=42的频率最高,主要存在于鹅冠草属(Roegneria)和披碱草属(Elymus)。Roegneria gobicola, Roegneria kuqaensis, Roegneria tahelacona, Roegneria zhoasuensis的染色体数为首次报道。     

油菜游离细胞培养及易再生的体细胞无性系的建立

以芥菜型油菜(Brcssica juncea)下胚轴来源的愈伤组织为材料,进行悬浮细胞振荡培养,得到游离的单细胞。这些细胞作浅层液体静置培养,可获得高频率的愈伤组织。在附加有水解乳蛋白200毫克/升、BA 2—3毫克/升及GA,0.1—1毫克/升的MS培养基上,这些愈伤组织分化了芽。分化的芽在无激素或附加有0.01—0.1毫克/升IAA或NAA的MS培养基上长出根,从而发育成完整植株。当对游离细胞获得的再生植株的茎切段愈伤组织,再经上述程序进行细胞培养时,发现愈伤组织诱导率及愈伤组织分化频率均远远高于原供体,从而建立了B.juncea易再生的体细胞无性系。

The relative importance of glucosinolates and amino acids to the development of two aphid pests Brevicoryne brassicae and Myzus persicae on wild and cultivated brassica species

This paper describes an experiment to investigate the relative importance of glucosinolates and the availability of free amino acids in the phloem to the feeding behaviour and development of the specialist brassica aphid, Brevicoryne brassicae (L) (cabbage aphid) and the generalist, Myzus persicae, (Sultzer) (peach potato aphid). Aphid development was determined on brassica species and cultivated brassica varieties. Analysis of individual glucosinolates in the wild brassica species identified significant differences in their profiles and in their concentrations present in freeze dried leaves. Multiple regression analysis showed a significant correlation ( ) between the intrinsic rate of increase of B. brassicae and glucosinolate concentrations; four glucosinolates, 2-OH-3-butenyl, and 2-propenylglucosinolate, 3-methoxyindolyl and 4-pentenylglucosinolates accounted for 79% of the variation. The intrinsic rate of increase of M. persicae was less correlated, though still significant ( ); 3-indolyglucosinolate and 3-butenylglucosinolate accounted for 47% of the variation. Regression analysis also showed a correlation between phloem amino acid concentrations and the intrinsic rate of increase of B. brassicae ( ) but not of M. persicae. The concentration of the important amino acids tyrosine, alanine, leucine and glutamic acid, accounted for 43% of the variation in intrinsic rate of increase. Leaf water potential of the Brassica species showed no relationship with the intrinsic rate of increase of either B. brassicae or M. persicae.     

Characterization of progenies of Triticum aestivum- Psathyrostachys juncea derivatives by using genomic in-situ hybridization

Using genomic in-situ hybridization (GISH) technique, 7 translocation-addition lines, 6 transloca-tion and translocation-addition lines, 2 ditelosomic addition lines and 1 translocation line were identified from Triticum aestivum L.-Psathyrostachys juncea (Fisch. ) Nevski intergeneric hybrids, of which translocation-addition and translocation and translocation-addition lines were not found in other reports. No substitutions and disomic additions were detected in the hybrids and breakages occurred in all P. juncea chromosomes studied. Results have shown that the improved GISH technique is a rapid and economical method for use in this field.     

A RFLP-based linkage map of mustard [Brassica juncea (L.) Czern. and Coss.]

 A genetic linkage map of Brassica juncea was constructed based on restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) detected by anonymous cDNA markers from B. napus, using a segregating F₁-derived doubled haploid (DH) progeny from a cross between a canola-quality mustard line (J90-4317) and a high-oil-content mustard line (J90-2733). The RFLP probes consisted of 229 cDNA probes from B. napus and a B. napus tandem repeat sequence, RDA2. The map consisted of 343 marker loci arranged in 18 major linkage groups plus five small segments with two to five marker loci, covering a total map distance of 2073 cM. Twenty-four percent of the markers were dominant in nature. Sixty-two percent of the marker loci were duplicated, and the majority were involved in inter-linkage group duplications, illustrating that complex duplications and subsequent rearrangements occurred after allopolyploidy. Deviation from the Mendelian segregation ratio for a DH population was observed for 27% of the markers. Two-thirds of these markers with a skewed segregation were clustered in 6 linkage groups and two unassigned segments. The overall average marker interval of the B. juncea map reported here was 6.6 cM, which would provide a marker density satisfactory for efficient use of the map in breeding applications, such as tagging of important agronomic traits and marker-assisted selection.
