番木瓜环斑病毒复制酶(亚基)基因的克隆、序列分析及其植物表达载体的构建

近二年报道,在TMV^⑴、PVX^⑵、PEBV^⑶和CMV^⑷等病毒中,利用病毒编码的复制酶(亚基)基因或相关cDNA片段转化烟草,工程植株获得绝对或极高的病毒抗性。大量研究认为：马铃薯Y病毒组的核内含体大分子量蛋白(Nib)是依赖于RNA的RNA复制酶(或核心亚基),Nlb与上述病毒的复制酶有广泛的同源保守区^⑸。因此,Nib基因的克隆,不但在植物抗病基因工程方面,而且在马铃薯Y病毒组基因组的复制研究方面．均有重要的意义。本文以马铃薯Y病毒组的重要成员番木瓜环斑病毒的华南强株系(PRSV—sM)为材料,克隆了PRSV的Nib基因,并完成其全序列测定和植物表达载体的构建,为探索马铃薯Y病毒组复制酶可能介导的抗病性打下了基础。     

卡拉胶固定粘质赛氏菌产碱性蛋白酶的研究

将粘质赛氏菌(Seratia marcescens)包埋于卡拉胶中,发现2．5％的卡拉胶适于固定该菌产碱性蛋白酶。固定化细胞在其较适宜产酶培养基中发酵,酶活力一般可达400u/ml,在卡拉胶中添加3％玉米粉和1%豆饼粉或2％砂子制备固定化细胞,其产酶能力分别提高了25%和23．9％;固定化细胞颗粒越小,其产酶能力越高。采用摇瓶半连续发酵。其产酶半衰期为14次(24小时为一个周期);而用环流器进行半连续发酵,其产酶半衰期为52次(12小时为一个周期),产酶效率分别比游离细胞摇瓶发酵的产酶效率高11．8％和45．07％,而环流器半连续发酵的产酶效率比摇瓶半连续发酵高29．7％。

Systematic classification of Asian colobines

In order to study the differentiation of Asian colobines, fourteen variables were analysed in one way, on 123 skulls, includingRhinopithecus, Presbytis, Presbytiscus, Pygathrix, andNasalis with both cluster and differentiated functions tests. Information on paleoenvironment changes in China and South-East Asia since late Tertiary have been used to examine the influences of migratory habits and the distribution range in Asian colobines. The cladogram among different Asian colobines genera was made from the results of various analysis. Some new points or revisions were suggested: 1. Following the second migratory way, ancient species of Asian colobines perhaps passed through Xizang along the northern bank of Tethis sea and Heng-Duan Shan regions, across Yunnan into Vietnam, since the ancient continent between Yunnan and Xizang was already located in on eastern bank of Tethis sea. Thus, during the evolution, Asian colobines must have had two original centres, i.e. “Sundaland” and Heng-Duan Shan Chinese regions; 2. Pygatrix possesses a lot of cranial features more similar toPresbytiscus than toRhinopithecus. The small difference from the modification combinesPygatrix with other two genera as shown by Groves (1970), but it is better to putPygatrix andPresbytiscus together as one genus; 3.Nasalis (2n=48) may be the most primitive genus within Asian colobines. Some features shared withRhinopithecus, for example body size, terrestrial activities, limb proportion etc. ...seem to be considered as a common inheritance of symlesiomorphus characters; 4.Rhinopithecus, with reference to cranioface and cranium or to its origin, is a special genus of Asian colobine. It may represent the highest level of evolutionary position within various genera (Peng et al., 1985).     

祁连山地区植被特征及其分布规律

分析和讨论了祁连山地区主要植被类型及其分布特征。祁连山地区随着青藏高原的强烈隆升表现为整体抬升,植被具有明显的生态地理边缘效应特征和高原地带性规律。该区植被虽然受到四周的较大影响,但各类高寒植被占有绝对优势,表现出与青藏高原植被整体明显的相似性和广泛的一致性。另一方面,本区植被也有其特殊性及与高原面存在一些差异。因此,建议把祁连山地区做为青藏高原植被区的次一级独立单元     

质体醌重组的D1／D2／Cytb559复合物的荧光衰减动力学和光破坏作用

光系统Ⅱ反应中心Ｄ１／Ｄ２／Ｃｙｔｂ５５９ 在分离纯化过程中失去了电子受体ＱＡ 和ＱＢ,人工合成的质体醌可以与Ｄ１／Ｄ２／Ｃｙｔｂ５５９ 复合物发生重组。癸基质体醌（ＤＰＱ）与Ｄ１／Ｄ２／Ｃｙｔｂ５９９ 复合物的重组导致该复合物的荧光强度下降及发射光谱蓝移,同时两个与光化学活性相关的长寿命（２４ ｎｓ和７３ ｎｓ）荧光衰减组分占整个荧光的百分数下降,这些结果表明ＤＰＱ作为Ｐｈｅｏ－ 的电子受体,限制了Ｐ６８０＋ ·Ｐｈｅｏ－ 的电荷重组。ＤＰＱ 的加入对Ｄ１／Ｄ２／Ｃｙｔｂ５５９复合物中Ｃｈｌａ 分子的光破坏敏感性影响不大,但β－胡萝卜素在加入ＤＰＱ 之后可以被光照破坏,这个过程可能与β－胡萝卜素的生理功能相关。

Ethylene production in rice bronzing leaves induced by ferrous iron

Bronzing, a nutritional disorder of rice plants which is widely distributed in tropical lowlands, was induced by dipping the cut end of rice leaves into FeSO₄ solution (pH 3.5). Ethylene production; the activities of peroxidase, polyphenol oxidase, and phenylalanine ammonia-lyase; and the effects of Co²⁺, aminoethoxyvinylglycine, Ag⁺, cycloheximide, and 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate, were investigated in the course of bronzing development. It was found that ethylene production could be stimulated up to about 20 times that of the control by Fe²⁺, and a peak could be reached at about 24 h after incubation. The Fe²⁺-treated leaves also had 10-fold higher peroxidase activity than the control, whereas in vitro enzyme activity was inhibited by Fe²⁺. Cycloheximide retarded in vivo stimulation of peroxidase, indicating that in vivo stimulation resulted from inducing de novo synthesis of the enzyme. No changes in the activities of phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and polyphenol oxidase were observed. The results, obtained from the incubation of leaves with Co²⁺, aminoethoxyvinylglycine, Ag⁺, cycloheximide, or 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylate, showed that ethylene production was the effect of Fe²⁺ stress and that it was not involved in the process of bronzing development, which is probably an acclimation process to enable plants to cope with stress. The accelerated peroxidase activity may be associated with bronzing development.Abbreviations ACC 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid - AVG aminoethoxyvinylglycine - EFE ethylene forming enzyme - PAL phenylalanine ammonia-lyase - POD peroxidase - PPO polyphenol oxidase - SE standard error     

人为调节荔枝果皮有机自由基及其与果皮变褐的可能关系

荔枝果实以10ppm的6-BA、NAA、GA_3 NAA或PVP(1%) NAA处理2min,1℃贮藏8天后再于室温放2天。EPR分析表明果皮的有机自由基(g因子2.0030)比对照低9%—22%,花色素苷含量高5%—46%。离体果皮小圆片经同法浸泡1h或16h,有机自由基反而比对照高。O_2~-的捕获剂Tiron和抗氧化剂PG CA处理果皮小圆片1h,有机自由基降低8%—11%,处理16h则自由基高于对照。邻苯二酚(pH 8.4)和H_2O_2加速果色变褐,有机自由基增高10%—370%。果皮离体后自由基的EPR波谱特征也发生变化,除了一个g因子2.0026—2.0027的主峰外,尚出现另一个小峰。结果表明荔枝果皮褐变的部分原因是有机自由基增高之故。
