小麦—天兰偃麦草—黑麦三属杂种花粉植株诱导条件的研究

研究表明,三属杂种处于单核中晚期阶段的花粉最适于诱导形成愈伤组织。低温预处理对促进三属杂种花粉愈伤组织的诱导有一定的作用。利用以马铃薯提取物为基础物质的马铃薯-Ⅱ培养基作诱导培养基,其愈伤组织诱导与分化的频率比目前两个较好的合成培养基要高。同一个三属杂种F_1春、秋播种植株之间在形成愈伤组织的能力上有较大的差异,秋播材料形成愈伤组织的能力明显高于春播材料。F_(?)杂种植株诱导愈伤组织和分化植株的频率均比F_1杂种明显提高。     

Combined effect of light and temperature on triacylglycerol accumulation in Dicranum elongatum

In the subarctic moss Dicranum elongatum Schleich & Schwaegr., the level of total lipids and triacylglycerols (TAG) was high in late winter and spring and low in autumn and winter. Four-week exposure of field material to continuous light (135μmol m⁻²s⁻¹) at 1°C resulted in a considerable increase in the amount of TAG in the autumn material acclimated to low temperatures and rhythmic light in the field. In contrast, the same treatment did not cause any increase in TAG in the spring material, acclimated to low temperatures and continuous light in the field. Results from experiments, in which moss cultivated for 4 months at 9°C on 12-h photoperiods (135μmol m⁻²s⁻¹) was kept for 3 weeks at low temperatures (9°C and −3°C) either in continuous light (135 or 70 μmol m⁻²s⁻¹) or with 12-h photoperiods (135 μmol m⁻²s⁻¹), indicated that the TAG level was higher at higher light intensity. At 9°C it was also higher in continuous light of both intensities than in rhythmic light. These results strongly suggest that decreasing irradiance and decreasing daylength limits the accumulation of TAG in D. elongatum during autumn in the subarctic.

Ein bakterielles Kulturfiltrat mit antiphytoviraler Aktivität an Gurke/Gurkenmosaik-Virus (cucumber mosaic virus) und Tabak/Tabakmosaik-Virus (tobacco mosaic virus): (Kurze Mitteilung)

Es wurde die Intra‐ und Interpopulationsvariation untersucht, die durch Adaptationsreaktionen der Individuen (Klone) der Gemeinen Quecke (Elytrigia repens (L.) DESV.) am Versuchsort zum Ausdruck kommt. Die Klone stammten aus Populationen verschiedener Höhenlagen vom Territorium der östlichen Bundesländer Deutschlands. Die Ergebnisse zeigen, daß sich die Populationen in der Variabilität der Enzymaktivität (saure Phosphatase, Peroxidase, Polyphenoloxidase) sowie in der Variabilität der Isoenzymmuster (Peroxidase, Esterase) unterscheiden. Die höchste Variabilität der genannten Parameter wurde für Populationen nachgewiesen, die aus einer Höhenlage von ca. 400 m ü. NN stammten. Ausgehend von 400 m ü. NN nimmt die Variabilität in Richtung größerer und niedrigerer Höhenlagen von 400 m hin ab. Die Variabilitätsunterschiede, die unter gleichen Bedingungen nachgewiesen wurden, weisen auf die Existenz eines Zusammenhanges zwischen den typischen Adaptationsreaktionen von Populationen und der Gesamtheit der Selektionsfaktoren des natürlichen Milieus hin, von dem sie stammten. Es gibt einen Zusammenhang zwischen der nachgewiesenen Variabilität und der Überlebensrate nach einer Adaptationsdauer von fünf Jahren.

Intermediate fertile Triticum aestivum （＋）Agropyron elongatum somatic hybrids are generated by low doses of UV irradiation

We report the production and characterization of somatic hybrids between Triticum aestivum L. and Agropyron elongatum (Host) Nevishi (the synonym is Thinopyrum ponticum). Asymmetric protoplast fusion was performed between Agropyron elongatum protoplasts irradiated with a low UV dose and protoplasts of wheat taken from nonregenerable suspension cultures. More than 40 green plantlets were obtained from 15 regenerated clones and one of them produced seeds. The phenotypes of the hybrid plants and seeds were intermediate between wheat and Agropyron elongatum. All of the regenerated calli and plants were verified as intergeneric hybrids on the basis of morphological observation and analysis of isozyme, cytological, 5SrDNA spacer sequences and random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD). RFLP analysis of the mitochondrial genome revealed evidence of random segregation and recombination of mtDNA.     

Transfer of small chromosome fragments of<Emphasis Type="Italic">Agropyron elongatum</Emphasis> to wheat chromosome via asymmetric somatic hybridization

The chromosome constitution of hybrids and chromatin patterns of Agropyron elongatum (Host)Neviski in F₅ somatic hybrid lines -1–3 and I-1-9 between Triticum aestivum L. and A. elongatum were analyzed. Based on the statistic data of pollen mother cells, F₅ I-1-9 and-1-3 had 20–21 bivalents with a frequency of 84.66% and 85.28%, of which, 89.83% and 89.57% were ring bivalents. The result indicated that both hybrid lines were basically stable in the chromosome constitution and behavior. RAPD analysis showed that the two hybrids contained biparental and integrated DNA. GISH (Genome in situ hybridization) revealed that in the form of small chromosome segments, A. elongatum chromatin was scattered on 4–6 wheat chromosomes near by the region of centromere and telomere in the two hybrid lines. SSR analysis indicated that A. elongatum DNA segments were distributed on the 2A, 5B, 6B and 2D wheat chromosomes in the hybrids, which was in accordance with the GISH results that small-segments intercalated poly-site.     

Physical localization of the 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA and sequence analysis of ITS regions in Thinopyrum ponticum (Poaceae: Triticeae): implications for concerted evolution

Fluorescence in situ hybridization was used in Thinopyrum ponticum, a decaploid species, and its related diploid species, to investigate the distribution of the 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA. The distribution of rDNA was similar in all three diploid species (Th. bessarabicum, Th. elongatum and Pseudoroegneria stipifolia). Two pairs of loci were observed in each somatic cell at metaphase and interphase. One pair was located near the terminal end and the other in the interstitial regions of the short arms of one pair of chromosomes. However, all of the major loci in Th. ponticum were located on the terminal end of the short arms of chromosomes, and one chromosome had only one major locus. The maximum number of major loci detected on metaphase spreads was 20, which was the sum of that of its progenitors. The interstitial loci that exist in the possible diploid genome donor species were probably 'lost' during the evolutionary process of the decaploid species. A number of minor loci were also detected on whole regions of two pairs of homologous chromosomes. These results suggested that the position of rDNA loci in the Triticeae might be changeable rather than fixed. Positional changes of 18S-5.8S-26S rDNA loci between Th. ponticum and its candidate genome donors indicate that it is almost impossible to find a genome in the polyploid species that is completely identical to that of its diploid donors. The possible evolutionary significance of the distribution of the rDNA is also discussed. Internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of nuclear DNA in Th. ponticum were investigated by PCR amplification and sequencing. The sequence data from five positive clones selected at random, together with restriction site analysis, indicated that the ITS repeated units are nearly homogeneous in this autoallodecapolypoid species. Combined with in situ hybridization results, the data led to the conclusion that the ITS region has experienced interlocus as well as intralocus concerted evolution. Phylogenetic analyses showed that the sequences from Th. ponticum have concerted to the E genome repeat type.

根据小麦液泡膜Na /H 逆转运蛋白基因TaNHX1的全长序列设计引物,通过RT-PCR直接扩增的方法从中间偃麦草(Elytrigia intermedia)中克隆到了TaNHX1的同源基因,命名为TiNHX1(Acession Numeber:EF409418).TiNHX1最大开放阅读框为1 641 bp,编码含有546个氨基酸残基、分子量为59.8 kDa的蛋白,预测等电点8.0.TiNHX1含有38个碱性氨基酸,36个酸性氨基酸,256个疏水氨基酸及129个极性氨基酸.二级结构预测表明该蛋白含约44%的a-螺旋、21%的p-折叠、4%的p-转角和29%的不规则卷曲.亲疏水性分析显示,TiNHX1含有12个连续的疏水片断,其中10个可能构成穿膜螺旋.序列分析显示,TiNHX1与小麦(Triticum aestivum)、长穗偃麦草(Elytrigia elongate)、水稻(Oryza sativa)、小盐芥(Thellungiella halophila)、拟南芥(Arabidopsis thaliana)等植物的液泡膜Na /H 逆向转运蛋白高度同源,序列相似性分别为97%、96%、85%、68%、67%.序列比对结果以及进化树分析均表明TiNHX1应为定位于中间偃麦草液胞膜上的Na /H 逆向转运蛋白.     

Clonal structure of Elytrigia atherica along different successional stages of a salt marsh

Elytrigia atherica is a tall clonal grass species typical of higher salt marshes, but is gradually invading to the lower marshes. At young successional stages of a salt marsh, E. atherica is found sparsely dispersed in small groups of ramets. These patches increase in size and ramet density over time, eventually forming extensive swards as succession proceeds. This study investigates the change in the clonal diversity of E. atherica stands during colonization as a result of its reproductive strategy. Clonal diversities of differently sized patches of E. atherica were investigated on two lower salt-marsh sites of different age, 25 years and 35 years, respectively. Microsatellite fingerprint patterns were used to determine genet identities and to estimate relatedness and genetic differentiation between the sites, between patches within sites and within patches. The majority of the patches on both sites contained more than one genet. On the older site, the clonal diversity was higher than on the younger site. However, the clonal diversity tended to decrease with increasing patch size. Low genetic differentiation was found between the two sites, indicating habitat differentiation, whereas differentiation between patches within sites was high. It is reasoned that different environmental conditions could have resulted in different clonal structures: On an older marsh, the increase of successful seedling recruitment, due to more suitable environmental conditions, leads to an increase in clonal diversity. Over time, with increasing ramet density, intraspecific competition is likely to increase, resulting in a decrease of clonal diversity.
