Length-weight relationship (LWR) parameters were analysed for six demersal finfish species from the Gulf of Mannar coast, Bay of Bengal. Fishes were sampled monthly from the landings of trawlers operated along the coast of Tuticorin and Rameshwaram with a cod-end mesh size of 35 mm at the depth of 60–80 m. Fish specimens were sampled by measuring the total length (TL) and total weight (TW) with precision to 0.1 cm and 0.1 g respectively. The present study also recorded a new maximum total length for Engyprosopon macrolepis, Torquigener brevipinnis and Leiognathus brevirostris. 相似文献

Rice blast is one of the most devastating diseases affecting the rice crop throughout the world. In molecular breeding for host plant resistance, functional markers are very useful for enhancing the precision and accuracy in marker-assisted selection (MAS) of target gene(s) with minimum effort, time and cost. Pi54 (which was earlier known as Pik h ) is one of the major blast resistance genes and has been observed to show resistance against many isolates of the blast pathogen in India. The gene has been cloned through map-based strategy and encodes a nucleotide-binding site?Cleucine-rich repeat (NBS?CLRR) domain-containing protein. In the present study, we carried out allele mining for this gene and identified a 144-bp insertion/deletion (InDel) polymorphism in the exonic region of the gene. A PCR-based co-dominant molecular marker targeting this InDel, named Pi54 MAS, was developed. Pi54 MAS was observed to perfectly co-segregate with blast resistance in a mapping population with no recombinants. Validation of this marker in 105 genotypes which are either susceptible or resistant to rice blast disease showed that the marker is polymorphic in most of the resistant?Csusceptible genotype combinations and is more accurate than the earlier reported markers for Pi54. Hence this functional, co-dominant marker is suggested for routine deployment in MAS of Pi54 in breeding programs. 相似文献

Kernel length in rice (Oryza sativa L.) is controlled by various quantitative trait loci of which GS3 is the most important, being responsible for 80–90% of the variation in kernel length. A mutation in the second exon of this gene has been reported to be associated with maximum variations in the kernel length. We have developed a simple PCR-based marker system named DRR-GL which targets the functional nucleotide polymorphism at GS3. This marker system has the advantages that it is easy to use, saves time and cost, and is amenable for large-scale marker-assisted selection for the trait of kernel length. Validation of this marker in a segregating population and 152 rice varieties, which includes 30 elite basmati varieties, reveals its effective co-segregation and association with the traits of kernel length as well as kernel elongation after cooking. We recommend utilization of this simple, low-cost marker system in breeding programs targeted at improvement of key rice grain quality traits, kernel length and kernel elongation. 相似文献

The present study was designed to investigate the anti-biofilm potential of alpha-mangostin (α-MG) against Acinetobacter baumannii (AB). The biofilm inhibitory concentration (BIC) of α-MG against AB was found to be 2 μg ml?1. α-MG (0.5, 1 and 2 μg ml?1) exhibited non-bactericidal concentration-dependent anti-biofilm activities against AB. However, α-MG failed to disintegrate the mature biofilms of AB even at a 10-fold increased concentration from its BIC. Results from qRT-PCR and in vitro bioassays further demonstrated that α-MG downregulated the expression of bfmR, pgaA, pgaC, csuA/B, ompA, bap, katE, and sodB genes, which correspondingly affects biofilm formation and its associated virulence traits. The present study suggests that α-MG exerts its anti-biofilm property by interrupting initial biofilm formation and the cell-to-cell signaling mechanism of AB. Additional studies are required to understand the mode of action responsible for the anti-biofilm property. 相似文献

Fragrance development in rice has been reported due to a 8-bp deletion in the exon 7 of badh2 gene located on Chromosome 8S. Multiplex markers targeting the functional InDel polymorphism was earlier reported for genotyping
fragrance trait, but the marker was observed to be inconsistent and difficult to use. We have developed a simple, co-dominant,
functional marker for fragrance trait, which can be resolved in an agarose gel and validated in Basmati and non-Basmati aromatic
rice varieties and in a mapping population segregated for fragrance trait. The marker targets the InDel polymorphism in badh2 gene and amplifies 95 and 103 bp fragments in fragrant and non-fragrant genotypes, respectively. The newly developed marker
was highly efficient in discriminating all fragrant and non-fragrant genotypes and showed perfect co-segregation with the
trait of fragrance in the mapping population. We recommend the use of this simple, low-cost marker in routine genotyping for
fragrance trait in large scale breeding materials and germplasm. 相似文献

Starch, composed of amylose and amylopectin, greatly influences rice cooking and textural quality, which in turn is controlled by various isoforms of several enzymes. Activity of one or more isoforms of starch‐synthesizing enzymes results in various forms of starch structure based on the amylopectin chain length and average external, internal and core chain length distribution and hence results in varying physicochemical and cooking quality. Since the synthesis of starch is highly complex, it is crucial but essential to understand its biosynthetic pathway, starch structure and effects on the physicochemical properties that control eating and cooking quality, and alongside conduct research on gene/QTL mapping for use in marker-assisted selection (MAS) with a view to improve and select cultivars with most desirable range and class of rice starch properties. This article presents the updates on current understanding of the coordination among various enzymes/isoforms towards rice starch synthesis in endosperm and their effect on rice grain physicochemical, cooking and eating qualities. The efforts in identifying regions responsible for these enzymes by mapping the gene/QTLs have provided a glimpse on their association with physicochemical and cooking properties of rice and, hence, improvement is possible by modifying the allelic pattern, resulting in down or nil regulation of a particular enzyme. The clear understanding of the tissue specific coordination between enzyme isoforms and their subsequent effect in controlling eating and cooking properties will enhance the chances to manipulate them for getting desired range of amylose content (AC) and gelatinization temperature (GT) in improved cultivars through combining desired alleles through MAS. 相似文献

Small- and medium-size farms in the mid-Atlantic region of the United States use varied agricultural practices to produce leafy greens during spring and fall, but the impact of preharvest practices on food safety risk remains unclear. To assess farm-level risk factors, bacterial indicators, Salmonella enterica, and Shiga toxin-producing Escherichia coli (STEC) from 32 organic and conventional farms were analyzed. A total of 577 leafy greens, irrigation water, compost, field soil, and pond sediment samples were collected. Salmonella was recovered from 2.2% of leafy greens (n = 369) and 7.7% of sediment (n = 13) samples. There was an association between Salmonella recovery and growing season (fall versus spring) (P = 0.006) but not farming system (organic or conventional) (P = 0.920) or region (P = 0.991). No STEC was isolated. In all, 10% of samples were positive for E. coli: 6% of leafy greens, 18% of irrigation water, 10% of soil, 38% of sediment, and 27% of compost samples. Farming system was not a significant factor for levels of E. coli or aerobic mesophiles on leafy greens but was a significant factor for total coliforms (TC) (P < 0.001), with higher counts from organic farm samples. Growing season was a factor for aerobic mesophiles on leafy greens (P = 0.004), with higher levels in fall than in spring. Water source was a factor for all indicator bacteria (P < 0.001), and end-of-line groundwater had marginally higher TC counts than source samples (P = 0.059). Overall, the data suggest that seasonal events, weather conditions, and proximity of compost piles might be important factors contributing to microbial contamination on farms growing leafy greens. 相似文献
