Quantitative trait loci (QTL) analysis of aluminium (Al) tolerance was performed using Ler/Cvi recombinant inbred (RI) lines of Arabidopsis thaliana. Relative root length (RRL) (root length with 4 µm Al/root length with no Al at pH 5.0) on day 5 was used as the Al tolerance index for QTL analysis. Al tolerance judged by RRL was well correlated to tolerance judged by other indexes, including accumulation of callose, reactive oxygen species in the root apex and growth performance on acid soil containing a large amount of exchangeable Al. Using data sets with an hb2 of 0.91, two QTLs were detected at the top of chromosome 1 and bottom of chromosome 3. These QTLs explained 40 and 16% of the phenotypic variation of Al tolerance, respectively, and the positive effect of the Cvi allele. The QTL on chromosome 1 overlapped with a major QTL in another recombinant inbred population, and is possibly related to malate excretion. A complete pair-wise search revealed 11 sets of epistatic interacting loci pairs, which accounted for the transgressive segregation among the RI population. Several epistatic interactions shared the same chromosomal region, indicating the possible involvement of regulatory proteins in Al tolerance in Arabidopsis. 相似文献

In order to clarify the cause of ommochrome deficiency in an albino strain of the terrestrial isopod, Armadillidium vulgare, levels of xanthom-matin, 3-hydroxykynurenine, 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid and tryptophan in whole body extracts of the albino and the wild type individuals were determined together with enzyme activities of kynurenine-3-hydroxylase, kynureninase and tryptophan-2,3-dioxygenase. Xanthommatin could not be detected in the albinos. The levels of 3-hydroxykynurenine and 3-hydroxyanthranilic acid were determined by high-performance liquid chro-matography (HPLC) with electrochemical detection and were markedly low in the albinos compared with the wild type individuals. In contrast to those, the tryptophan levels determined by HPLC with fluorescence detection did not differ significantly between the two phenotypes. In the albino A. vulgare, kynurenine-3-hydroxylase activity was lower and kynureninase activity was higher than in the wild type, although the differences were not statistically significant. Tryptophan-2,3-dioxygenase activity in the albinos was less than 10% that in the wild type. Thus, ommochrome deficiency in the albino A. vulgare is considered to be caused by the extremely low activity of tryptophan-2,3-dioxygenase. 相似文献

Germ Layer Interactions in Pattern Formation of Amphibian Mesoderm during Primary Embryonic Induction 总被引:6,自引:6,他引:0
Mesodermal differentiation of dorsal marginal zone (DMZ) before and after invagination was analyzed by a series of combination experiments with different kinds of ectoderm.
Lower DMZ of early gastrula didn't show any axial-mesoderm (notochord and somitic mesoderm) but lateral mesoderm (mesenchyme, mesothelium, or blood cells) in combinant with non-competent ventral ectoderm, while combinant with competent ectoderm was found to have well-differentiated axial-mesoderm with deutero-spinocaudal neurals. The axial-mesoderms have origin in the ectoderm. Uninvaginated DMZ of middle gastrula also showed difference in mesodermal differentiation between competent and non-competent ectoderms; axial-mesoderm differentiation was much better in competent than in non-competent. The axial-mesoderm originated from the uninvaginated DMZ. Archenteron roof of late gastrula showed regional difference in mesodermal differentiation in both combinants with competent and non-competent. The present study further demonstrated that there was regionality in promoting effect of induced neurectoderm on axial-mesoderm differentiation of invaginated archenteron roof.
The present experiments suggest that the cranio-caudal and dorso-ventral axis formations of amphibian mesoderm are finally determined by sequential and reciprocal interactions between the mesodermal anlage and the overlying ectoderm. It should be also shown that lower DMZ acts to trigger a series of the sequential interactions during primary embryonic induction. 相似文献

Receiving coastal waters and estuaries are among the most nutrient‐enriched environments on earth, and one of the symptoms of the resulting eutrophication is the proliferation of opportunistic, fast‐growing marine seaweeds. Here, we used a widespread macroalga often involved in blooms, Ulva spp., to investigate how supply of nitrogen (N) and phosphorus (P), the two main potential growth‐limiting nutrients, influence macroalgal growth in temperate and tropical coastal waters ranging from low‐ to high‐nutrient supplies. We carried out N and P enrichment field experiments on Ulva spp. in seven coastal systems, with one of these systems represented by three different subestuaries, for a total of nine sites. We showed that rate of growth of Ulva spp. was directly correlated to annual dissolved inorganic nitrogen (DIN) concentrations, where growth increased with increasing DIN concentration. Internal N pools of macroalgal fronds were also linked to increased DIN supply, and algal growth rates were tightly coupled to these internal N pools. The increases in DIN appeared to be related to greater inputs of wastewater to these coastal waters as indicated by high δ15N signatures of the algae as DIN increased. N and P enrichment experiments showed that rate of macroalgal growth was controlled by supply of DIN where ambient DIN concentrations were low, and by P where DIN concentrations were higher, regardless of latitude or geographic setting. These results suggest that understanding the basis for macroalgal blooms, and management of these harmful phenomena, will require information as to nutrient sources, and actions to reduce supply of N and P in coastal waters concerned. 相似文献

SYNOPSIS. Sexual differentiation in malacostracan Crustaceais controlled by the androgenic gland hormone (AGH). In males,the primordial androgenic glands (AG) develop and AGH inducesmale morphogenesis. In females, the primordial AG does not developand the ovaries differentiate spontaneously. Implantation ofthe AG into females yields various results, showing that thesensitivity to AGH differs with the species and the receptiveorgans. Purified AGH of the isopod Armadillidium vulgare consistsof at least two molecular forms, which exist as monomeric proteinswith molecular weights of 17,000 ± 800 and 18,300 ±1,000 Da and with isoelectric points of about 4.5 and 4.3, respectively.The antiserum raised against purified AGH makes it possibleto measure AGH activity by immunoassay. Neurohormones control male and female reproduction. In males,they are involved in the maintenance of the male germinativezone and the control of AG activity. In females, the secondaryvitellogenesis is controlled by the vitellogenesis-inhibitinghormone (VIH) and the vitellogenesis- stimulating hormone (VSH).VIH isolated from the lobster Homarus americanus is a peptidewith a molecular weight of 9,135 Da and shows homology to thecrustacean hyperglycemic hormone and moltinhibiting hormone.Involvement of the molting hormone and the juvenile hormone-likecompound in the secondary vitellogenesis have also been suggested.In the amphipod Orchestia gammarella, the vitellogenesis- stimulatingovarian hormone (VSOH) seems to control vitellogenin synthesis 相似文献

The albino mutant strain in the woodlice, Armadillidium vulgare, was investigated with respect to the yellow patterns on the dorsal integument. Pigment cells were observed with electron microscope in order to determine the cell types of yellow markings. Quantitative analyses of pteridines in the albino were carried out by HPLC. The result indicated that the albino integument contain sepiapterin, biopterin, pterin, isoxanthopterin as in the wild type and the red mutant strain. The total amount of the four pteridines in the albino was about half as much as that in the red phenotype for both males and females, respectively. Males and females showed almost the same totals and ratios of the four pteridines in the albino and red phenotypes. Therefore, pteridine contents in both phenotypes of A. vulgare may not be related to the activity of androgenic gland hormone. Yellow chromatophores of the albino and red phenotypes were morphologically identical, emitting a yellow fluorescence. These cells contained numerous electron-lucent pigment organelles which were similar to pteridine granules of the wild type. 相似文献

ANDROGENIC GLAND HORMONE AND DEVELOPMENT OF OVIDUCTS IN THE ISOPOD CRUSTACEAN, ARMADILLIDIUM VULGARE 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
When androgenic glands from mature males were implanted into females of Armadillidium vulgare during the 3rd, 4th and 5th instars, oviducts developed in 14.3, 37.9 and 85.2% of the masculinized females, respectively. These results show that development of the rudimentary oviducts is inhibited by the androgenic gland hormone in very young females. Development of the oviduct seems to be determined at a critical period in about the 4th instar and after this, the hormone has little inhibitory effect. 相似文献

Sedimentation behavior of sweet potato glucose 6-phosphate dehydrogenasewas studied using the sucrose density gradient centrifugation.The relative s value to s20, value of alcohol dehydrogenasewas determined to be about 6 in the absence of both NADP$ andglucose 6-phosphate. In the presence of NADP$, the enzyme wassedimented with a relative s value of about 9. The additionof glucose 6-phosphate did not affect the sedimentation behavior.When glucose 6-phosphate was added to the gradient medium containingNDAP$, the enzyme was sedimented with a relative s value ofabout 6 or 7, depending on the concentration of glucose 6-phosphate.
