菌根真菌对白及种子萌发和幼苗生根的作用

自然条件下,兰科植物需要依赖菌根真菌获得营养才能萌发。本研究对白及根和原球茎中分离的4株菌根真菌（WQ17-33、WQ17-43、JST-3和SL15-7）进行分子鉴定,并评价光照和黑暗条件下不同菌株促白及种子萌发和幼苗生根的效果。结果表明,4个菌株分别隶属于鬼伞属Coprinus、胶膜菌属Tulasnella、腊壳菌属Sebacina和Serendipita。在种子萌发前期（未形成叶子）进行暗培养较光照对菌株JST-13和SL15-7处理组原球茎阶段萌发具有显著的促进作用。不同菌株共生萌发效果不同,菌株SL15-7较其他处理原球茎和幼苗发育阶段的萌发率高。菌株JST-13和SL15-7处理组形成的幼苗较其他处理组强壮,定殖的菌丝团也较多,其幼苗生根效果也较对照组好。该研究表明白及可与多种不同类群的菌根真菌菌株形成共生关系,这些真菌在促进白及种子萌发和生根能力方面存在差异。     

基于大鼠在体肠灌流模型研究白及有效部位在肠道的可吸收及代谢成分

为了考查白及有效部位在肠道的可吸收成分及其代谢特征。基于在体肠灌流模型,采用超高效液相色谱-四极杆-飞行时间质谱仪(UPLC-Q-TOF/MS)对收集到的健康SD大鼠循环肠灌流液、血清、胆汁进行分析检测,并结合对照品、质谱碎片信息和Masslynx V4.1工作站中的Single Mass Analysis功能,初步推测吸收和代谢产物的结构式。在大鼠血清和胆汁中,初步鉴定出1,4-二[4-(葡萄糖氧)苄基]-2-异丁基苹果酸、4-(葡萄糖氧)苄基]-2-异丁基苹果酸酯、α-异丁基苹果酸酯原型产物。在大鼠循环肠灌流液、血清和胆汁中,共鉴定出4-(葡萄糖氧)苄基]-2-异丁基苹果酸酯的脱糖后硫酸化代谢产物和二氢菲5的葡萄糖醛酸化代谢产物,其代谢产物主要生水解和葡萄糖醛酸化反应。该方法初步探究了白及有效部位在大鼠循环肠灌流液中可吸收成分和代谢特征,为阐释白及药材的药效物质基础提供实验依据。     

药用白及资源再生策略初探

白及为兰科白及属植物。作为著名中药,白及功效多样、用途广泛,具有较高的药用价值和经济价值。随资源利用强度的增加,野生白及资源日渐萎缩,人工规模化种植是实现白及药用资源可持续利用的必由之路。优良种质及繁育技术是种植业的关键问题。为了更好地推动白及资源研究和可持续利用,本文就白及种质及快繁技术研究进展作一综述,并就白及资源再生策略进行初步探讨,为相关研究和生产提供参考。     

白及蔗糖合成酶基因的克隆及表达分析

为揭示白及蔗糖合成酶基因与生长发育的关系,该研究以白及为材料,利用RT-PCR技术同源克隆白及蔗糖合成酶的关键基因SuSy,对SuSy基因的生物学特性及表达特征进行了分析,并利用实时荧光定量PCR检测SuSy基因在不同组织中的表达规律。结果表明:(1)白及SuSy基因长度为2 215 bp,编码737个氨基酸,与铁皮石斛、文心兰和蝴蝶兰的蛋白质氨基酸序列的相似性分别为97%、92%和95%。(2)生物信息学分析表明,SuSy蛋白质序列具有较高的亲水性,与拟南芥SuSy蛋白质氨基酸三级结构一致性为75.2%;系统进化树分析发现,白及SuSy蛋白与铁皮石斛处于同一个分支上。(3) qRT-PCR结果表明,SuSy基因在叶片中的表达量最高,块茎中的表达量最低;成熟叶片的表达量高于未成熟叶片的表达量;数据差异性分析显示,SuSy基因在根、块茎中表达量具有极显著性差异,但在一年生叶和二年生叶中的表达量无显著性差异,幼苗叶和一、二年生叶中表达量具有极显著性差异。由此推测,SuSy基因可能受生长发育的诱导,是调控白及生长发育关键基因。

Uropygial gland volatiles may code for olfactory information about sex,individual, and species in Bengalese finches Lonchura striata

Over-shadowed by eye-catching vocal and visual signals, chemical communication has long been overlooked in birds. This study aimed at exploring whether volatile composition of the uropygial gland secretion （UGS） of birds was associated with the information about sex, individual and species. By using dichloromethane extraction and gas chromatography-mass spectrometry （GC-MS）, we analyzed the UGS volatiles of domesticated Bengalese finches （ Lonchura striata, Estrildiea） which is also known as white-rumped munias. We characterized 16 volatile molecules from the UGS, including eight n-alkanols, five diesters, an ester, an aldehyde and a fatty acid, and quantified them in terms of GC peak area percentages （relative abundances） . Among these compounds, hexadecanol and octadecanol were major components in both sexes. The former was richer in males than in females and the latter richer in females than in males, suggesting that they might be male and female pheromone candidates, respectively. The high inter-individual variations, in relative abundance, of the UGS volatiles implied that these compounds might carry information about individuality. The similarity between GC profiles of the UGS and wing feather from same individuals indicates that the birds might preen the secretion to their feathers to transmit chemical cues. Additionally, by comparing with three sympatric passerine species, i. e., zebra finches Taeniopygia guttata, yellow-bowed buntings Emberiza chrysophrys and rooks Corvus frugilegus, we found that the composition of C13 - C18 alkanols in the UGS might code for information about species. Our study also showed that quantitative differences （degree） of same UGS volatiles might be the key for the Bengalese finch to code for information about sex and individuality whereas both the kind and degree of UGS constituents could be utilized to code for information about species [ Current Zoology 55 （5）： 357-365, 2009].
