Effect of Jasmonates and Related Compounds on Seed Germination of Orobanche minor Smith and Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth

Jasmonates and related compounds were found to elicit the seed germination of the important root parasites, clover broomrape (Orobanche minor Smith) and witchweed [Striga hermonthica (Del.) Benth]. The stimulation of seed germination by the esters was more effective than by the corresponding free acids, and methyl jasmonate (MJA) was the most active stimulant among the compounds tested.

试验采用不同浓度广藿香(Pogostemon cablin(Blanco)Benth.)精油,研究其对檀香粉蝶和荔枝卷叶蛾幼虫拒食和忌避作用。使用2.5~40 mg/mL广藿香精油分别对檀香粉蝶和荔枝卷叶蛾幼虫进行饲喂试验,檀香粉蝶幼虫的选择性和非选择性拒食率都为100%,荔枝卷叶蛾的选择性拒食率为18.36%~100%,24 h和48 h非选择性拒食率分别为51.45%~100%和53.34%~100%。忌避试验发现,随着浓度提高,忌避作用越强,其中最大忌避率分别为80.30%和93.81%;随着时间推移,各浓度精油对檀香粉蝶和荔枝卷叶蛾幼虫的忌避效应呈现不同程度的下降趋势。试验表明,广藿香精油对檀香粉蝶和荔枝卷叶蛾幼虫有较好的防治作用。     

铜胁迫条件下土壤微生物对海州香薷光合特性和叶绿素荧光参数的影响

为探讨铜（Cu）胁迫条件下土壤微生物对海州香薷（Elsholtzia splendens）光合生理和叶绿素荧光参数的影响,实验设置添加Cu（Cu胁迫）、接种土壤微生物、添加Cu与接种土壤微生物等3个处理,以不添加Cu与不接种土壤微生物为对照（CK）。结果表明：接种土壤微生物处理的植株相对叶绿素含量、净光合速率（P_n）、水分利用效率（WUE）均显著高于CK;且对初始荧光（F_o）和最大光化学效率（F_v/F_m）均有显著性影响。与CK相比,添加Cu降低了海州香薷的P_n和气孔导度（G_s）,但胞间CO₂浓度（C_i）的变化与P_n相反,表明其对光合作用的影响主要是非气孔限制因素。添加Cu的植株相对叶绿素含量显著下降,但Cu胁迫下接种土壤微生物提高了植株相对叶绿素含量,差异显著。在Cu胁迫条件下,接种土壤微生物的植株具有较高的F_v/F_m及较低的F_o,显著提高了海州香薷的WUE、P_n、G_s。说明接种土壤微生物可通过提高相对叶绿素含量、改善叶绿素荧光和光合作用来减轻Cu胁迫对海州香薷植株造成的伤害,从而提高海州香薷耐受Cu胁迫的能力。     

海州香薷Actin基因片段克隆及表达分析

通过克隆海州香薷Actin基因片段并分析其组织表达,为研究海州香薷重金属抗性相关基因的表达调控奠定基础。根据Gen Bank中其他植物Actin基因保守序列设计兼并引物,以海州香薷根总RNA为模板,利用RT-PCR技术分离得到Actin基因片段。序列分析结果表明,海州香薷Actin基因片段长576 bp,编码192个氨基酸,与其他植物同源基因的氨基酸序列相似性为84%-97%,所克隆的序列为Actin基因的同源片段,将其命名为Eh ACT,在Gen Bank中提交序列,获得登录号AGT37260。半定量RT-PCR分析结果表明,Eh ACT在海州香薷的根、茎和叶中表达相对稳定,初步表明其可作为研究海州香薷基因表达的内参基因。

EFFECTS OF COPPER-ENRICHED COMPOSTS APPLIED TO COPPER-DEFICIENT SOIL ON THE YIELD AND COPPER AND ZINC UPTAKE OF WHEAT

A pot experiment and a field experiment were conducted to investigate Cu-enriched composts made from Elsholtzia splendens plants as basal fertilizers to correct Cu deficiency in winter wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grown in Cu-deficient soils. An application of the compost significantly increased plant height, biomass, grain yield, and 1000-grain weight. In the pot experiment, plant height and shoot biomass in the 2% Cu-rich compost treatment increased 0.8- and 5.2-fold compared with the chemical fertilizer treatment at the mature stage. Compared to chemical fertilizer control, the 2% Cu-enriched compost addition increased grain yield per pot by about 9.5-fold and 1000-grain weight by about 50%. In the field study, the compost also showed stimulatory effects on plant growth and grain yield. The results indicate that composting E. splendens plants grown in a Cu-contaminated soil and then applying the compost to a Cu-deficient soil may be an effective technique for the remediation of contaminated soils and redistribution of the copper as a plant nutrient for copper-deficient soils.

为诱导广藿香[Pogostemon cablin(Blanco)Benth.]同源八倍体,采用组织培养方法,研究了秋水仙素对广藿香同源八倍体诱导的影响。结果表明,以0.05%秋水仙素浸泡广藿香组培丛生芽72 h的效果最佳,形态学鉴定处理苗的变异率达85%,且八倍体苗的染色体数目为2n=8x=128,八倍体苗的根茎粗壮,叶片大而厚,颜色深,叶形指数小,叶片下表皮的气孔个体大、密度小,保卫细胞中的叶绿体数目多,植株形态学性状优良。这为进一步获得高产、活性成分含量高的广藿香优良品系奠定基础。     

Effect of Non-Volatile Constituents of Elsholtzia ciliata (Thunb.) Hyl. from Southern Vietnam on Reactive Oxygen Species and Nitric Oxide Release in Macrophages

The extract of Elsholtzia ciliata aerial parts was subjected to bio-guided isolation using the intercellular ROS reduction in J774A.1 macrophages to monitor the anti-oxidative activity. Fifteen compounds were isolated from the active fractions including eleven flavonoids (vitexin, pedalin, luteolin-7-O-β-d -glucopyranoside, apigenin-5-O-β-d -glucopyranoside, apigenin-7-O-β-d -glucopyranoside, chrysoeriol-7-O-β-d -glucopyranoside, 7,3′-dimethoxyluteolin-6-O-β-d -glucopyranoside, luteolin, 5,6,4′-trihydroxy-7,3′-dimethoxyflavone, 5-hydroxy-6,7-dimethoxyflavone (compound 13 ), 5-hydroxy-7,8-dimethoxyflavone); three hydroxycinnamic acid derivatives (caffeic acid, 4-(E)-caffeoyl-l -threonic acid, 4-O-(E)-p-coumaroyl-l -threonic acid) and one fatty acid (α-linolenic acid). The biological evaluation of these compounds (10–2.5 μm ) indicated that all of them exerted good antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activities, in particular compound 13 .
