Abstract

Stigmatic and stylar structures of-sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) «Malizia» were examined with light and electron microscopes (S.E.M. and T.E.M.).

It was demonstrated that the transmitting tissue, situated in the central portion of the style, extends below the stigmatic papillae and secretes an electrondense material accumulating in the intercellular spaces. Pollen tubes which germinated on the stigma, reached the ovules passing through this substance which facilitates their passage while trophic relations are established.

Some ultrastructural aspects of the pollen tubes observed inside the style were examined and discussed in relation to the phenomenon of self-incompatibility.  相似文献

Increasing costs and decreasing labor availability for sweet cherry harvest in Washington State, USA, has reinvigorated commercial and research interest of mechanized harvest. Ethephon (2-chloroethyl phosphonic acid) can be used to improve fruit abscission for mechanical harvest. Our previous work shows that 3.5 l ha−1 ethephon enhances red color and reduces firmness of the cultivar ‘Bing’. In the current study, we used metabolic profiling of cultivars ‘Bing’, Chelan’, and ‘Skeena’ fruit meso and exocarp tissue to better understand underlying quality-related metabolism associated with ethephon application. Trees were treated using air-blast sprayer 13–14 days prior to harvest and fruit samples were harvested every 7–10 days starting at least 17 days prior to commercial harvest. Nearly 200 identified and partially characterized metabolites from mesocarp and exocarp tissue were characterized and evaluated. Principal component analysis models revealed changes in the metabolome associated with both natural ripening and ethephon-induced changes, including associations to key color, acid, and sugar components, such as cyanidin 3-glucoside, malic acid and sugar metabolism.  相似文献

Genomic DNA fragments containing the S(3)-, S(4)-, and S(6)-RNase genes were isolated from the sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) and sequenced. Comparison of the 5'-flanking sequences of these three S-RNases indicated that a highly conserved region (designated CR) existed just upstream from the putative TATA boxes. We postulate that CR contains cis-regulatory element(s) involved in pistil expression. To examine the activity of the isolated S-RNase promoters of sweet cherry in the pistil, we transiently introduced approximately 650-bp fragments of the S(4)- and S(6)-RNase promoters fused to beta-glucuronidase (GUS) gene into the pistil of the petunia using a particle bombardment technique. Histochemical analysis showed that the 5'-flanking region of each S-RNase was active in the pistil. This suggests that cis-regulatory element(s) for pistil-specific expression may exist(s) within the 650-bp region upstream from the TATA box in the sweet cherry S-RNase promoter.  相似文献

Self-incompatibility in Prunus (Rosaceae) species, such as sweet cherry, is controlled by a multiallelic locus (S), in which two tightly linked genes, S-RNase and SFB (S haplotype-specific F-box), determine the specificity of the pollen and the style. Fertilization in these species occurs only if the S-specificities expressed in the pollen and the pistils are different. However, modifier genes have been proposed to be necessary for a full manifestation of the self-incompatibility response. 'Cristobalina' is a spontaneous self-compatible sweet cherry cultivar that originated in Eastern Spain. Previous studies with this genotype suggested that pollen modifier gene(s), not linked to the S-locus, may be the cause of self-incompatibility breakdown. In this work, an F(1) population from 'Cristobalina' that segregates for this trait was used to identify molecular markers linked to self-compatibility by bulked segregant analysis. One simple sequence repeat (SSR) locus (EMPaS02) was found to be linked to self-compatibility in this population at 3.2?cM. Two additional populations derived from 'Cristobalina' were used to confirm the linkage of this marker to self-compatibility. Since EMPaS02 has been mapped to the sweet cherry linkage group 3, other markers located on the same linkage group were analysed in these populations to confirm the location of the self-compatibility locus.  相似文献

Plant reproduction is highly vulnerable to environmental conditions such as temperature and, consequently, planet warming may have significant consequences on the reproductive phase with serious implication in agricultural crops. Although pollen tube growth is clearly affected by temperature, little information is available on its effect on the female side and on flower receptivity. In this work, the effect of temperature has been evaluated on stigmatic receptivity of sweet cherry in vivo, in the laboratory, and in planta, in the field. Results herein show that temperature has a clear effect on the duration of stigmatic receptivity. Thus, whereas high temperature reduced stigmatic receptivity, low temperature enlarged it. The stigma lost the capacity to offer support first for pollen penetration, second for pollen germination and, finally, for pollen adhesion. The effect of temperature was more pronounced on pollen germination and penetration than on pollen adhesion. High temperature reduced the germination capacity of the pollen as early as the first day after anthesis, a time when no apparent signs of stigma degeneration are apparent. This clear effect of temperature on stigmatic receptivity and pollen performance may have clear implication in crop performance and in establishing screening criteria of best‐adapted genotypes.  相似文献

Summary Differences in pollen performance in higher plants can result in significant selective advantages for some particular genotypes leading to both gametophytic and sexual selection. However, the possibility of selection among male gametophytes has been questioned since natural selection could lead to the fixation of alleles for the best competing male genotypes. These two apparently conflicting hypotheses could be reconciled if pollen performance, rather than operating in absolute terms, could be modulated by the pistilar genotype. Thus, pollen performance in vivo and in vitro has been compared in four sweet cherry (Primus avium L.) cultivars. Differences among the cultivars studied have been recorded in the speed and final pollen germination percentages both in vivo and in vitro. The results obtained show that the female genotype also modulates the final result of pollen performance. These two factors are not merely additive but, on the contrary, the interaction between them affects pollen behavior in vivo. This fact has clear implications for gametophytic and sexual selection since the best male-female combinations can be favored and this could explain the variability observed for pollen performance in nature.  相似文献

A total of 76 sweet cherry genotypes were screened with 34 microsatellite primer pairs previously developed in peach. Amplification of SSR loci was obtained for 24 of the microsatellite primer pairs, and 14 of them produced polymorphic amplification patterns. On the basis of polymorphism and quality of amplification, a set of nine primer pairs and the resulting 27 informative alleles were used to identify 72 genotype profiles. Of these, 68 correspond to unique cultivar genotypes, and the remaining four correspond to three cultivars that could not be differentiated from the two original genotypes of which they are mutants, and two very closely related cultivars. The mean number of alleles per locus was 3.7 while the mean heterozygosity over the nine polymorphic loci averaged 0.49. The results demonstrate the usefulness of cross-species transferability of microsatellite sequences allowing the discrimination of different genotypes of a fruit tree species with sequences developed in other species of the same genus. UPGMA cluster analysis of the similarity data divided the ancient genotypes studied into two fairly well-defined groups that reflect their geographic origin, one with genotypes originating in southern Europe and the other with the genotypes from northern Europe and North America.  相似文献

Sweet cherry cultivar identification by leaf isozyme polymorphism   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
Isozyme polymorphism can assist in the identification of cherry cultivars. Ten isozymes, each showing variation at only one locus, provide 70 unique genotype profiles from leaf extracts of 78 different sweet cherry cultivars. Polymorphism in 6PGD, G6PD, GPI, IDH, PGM, FDP, SKDH and PER is demonstrated for the first time, while observations are extended for the previously described polymorphisms in MDH and GOT. Some cultivars with identical morphological characters and previously treated as one cultivar can be separated on the basis of isozyme genotype. Irradiated mutants and parent material could also be differentiated.  相似文献

Characterisation of novel S-alleles from cherry (Prunus avium L.)   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
In plant populations exhibiting gametophytic self-incompatibility, individuals harbouring rare S alleles are likely to have a reproductive advantage over individuals having more common alleles. Consequently, determination of the self-incompatibility haplotype of individuals is essential for genetic studies and the development of informed management strategies. This study characterises six new S alleles identified in wild cherry (Prunus avium L.). Investigations to determine the S genotype of individuals in recently planted woodland through length polymorphisms of introns associated with the stylar S-RNase gene and the pollen SFB gene revealed six S intron profiles which did not correspond to those of known S alleles. These are now attributed to S 27 to S 32 . Consensus primers, annealing in the S-RNase sequence coding for the signal peptide and C5 regions, were used to isolate the S-RNase alleles associated with the novel S intron profiles. The proteins corresponding to the new alleles were separated by isoelectric focusing from stylar extracts and their pI values determined. Similarities between the deduced amino acid sequence for the new alleles isolated and other cherry S-RNase sequences available on the databases ranged from 40% to 86%. Amplification products for SFB introns ranged from 172 to 208bp. New sequence regions exposed to positive selection were identified and the significance of the PS3 region reinforced. A phylogenetic relationship between P. avium S-RNases for S 10 and S 13 and between corresponding SFB alleles may indicate co-evolution of allele specificities of these two genes. The nucleotide sequences reported in this paper have been submitted to the EMBL/GenBank database under the following accession numbers: S 27 (DQ266439), S 28 (DQ266440), S 29 (DQ266441), S 30 (DQ266442), S 31 (DQ266443), S 32 (DQ266444).  相似文献

Reduction of crop yield from high water stress is a serious agricultural problem worldwide, which is expected to intensify under future global change scenarios. Efforts are underway worldwide to improve crops resistance to drought. One possible way is the careful choice of rootstock-scion combination. It is well known that water stress symptoms of grafted cherry trees to a large extent depend on the rootstock variety. Scions grafted on dwarf rootstocks show more serious stress symptoms, so it is reasonable to hypothesize that these symptoms and the tissue structure of the rootstock stem are connected. This paper examines this connection for 1-year-old seedlings of eight cherry rootstocks with different degree of vigor. Tissue structure was observed via scanning electron microscope images. Investigations were focused on number, size, and distribution of vessels, because they are principally responsible for water transport. Stem porosity (i.e., the total vessel area relative to the stem area, in cross-sectional view) of the dwarfing rootstocks was found to be significantly smaller than that of the others, supporting the notion that stem anatomical characteristics might contribute to water stress sensitivity.  相似文献

In this study the abundance and location of phosphoenolpyruvate carboxykinase (PEPCK) was determined in the flesh and skin of the sweet cherry (Prunus avium L.) cultivar Durone Nero II during development. PEPCK was not present in young fruit but appeared in both tissues as the fruit increased in size. In these there was no net dissimilation of malic acid, which accounts for the bulk of their organic acid contents when PEPCK was present. To assist in understanding the function of PEPCK, the abundance of a number of other enzymes was determined. These enzymes were aspartate aminotransferase (AspAT), glutamine synthetase (GS), phosphoenolpyruvate carboxylase (PEPC), pyruvate, orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK), and ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (rubisco). A potential role for PEPCK in the regulation of pH and the utilization of malate in gluconeogenesis in the flesh and skin of cherries is presented.  相似文献

Regeneration of adventitious shoots from leaves and, for the first time, from internode sections were compared and optimized for five economically important sweet cherry cultivars, i.e. Schneiders, Sweetheart, Starking Hardy Giant, Kordia and Regina (Prunus avium L.). The influence of basal media, carbon source, combination and dosage of phytohormones, ethylene inhibitor such as silver thiosulfate and a 16 h:8 h light:dark photoperiod versus complete darkness were evaluated. Both, DKW/WPM (1:1) and Quoirin/Lepoivre (QL) basal media stimulated organogenesis more than QL/WPM (1:1), Chee and Pool (CP), Murashige Skoog (MS), Driver and Kuniyuki (DKW) or woody plant (WPM) media did. An induction phase in darkness resulted in lower or zero regeneration rates. The best regeneration efficiencies were generally obtained with thidiazuron in combination with indole-3-butyric-acid. The addition of silver thiosulfate resulted in a similar or reduced regeneration efficiency. Significant genotypic variability in adventitious bud formation was evident for both explant sources, leaf and internode section. Adventitious shoots were obtained from 11% of leaf explants and 50% of internode sections indicating that shoot regeneration from internodes was significantly more efficient than from leaves.  相似文献

Inheritance and linkage of isozyme loci in pear (Pyrus communis L.)   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
 The polymorphism of 11 enzymes was analysed in 11 progenies from controlled crosses between pear varieties, using acrylamide and starch electrophoresis gels. Twenty-two loci were identified and segregation was scored for 20 of them. Three pairs of duplicated loci forming intergenic hybrid bands were detected, these correspond to equivalent duplicated genes in apple. A total of 49 active alleles and 1 null allele were identified. Joint segregation analysis revealed three linkage groups, which could all be related to existing groups on the apple map. The conservation of isozyme patterns, duplicated genes and linkage groups indicates a high degree of synteny between apple and pear. Received: 8 July 1996 / Accepted: 19 July 1996  相似文献

Summary Genetic analyses were conducted among 18 provisionary isozyme loci in Cucumis sativus L. Fourteen loci demonstrated simple Mendelian inheritance while observed variation at four loci (Gpi2, Gr2, Pgm3, Skdh2) was determined not to have a predictable genetic basis. Joint segregation analyses among the 14 genetically predictable polymorphic loci resulted in the assignment of 12 loci to four linkage groups. Linkage groups contain the following loci: (1) Gr1, Pgm1, Idh, Pgd1; (2) Pep-pap, Mdh2, Mdh3, Gpi1; (3) Pep-la, Per4; (4) Pgd2, G2dh. Mpi2 and Mdh1 segregated independently. Recombination fractions for linked loci ranged between 0.051 (Pgm1-Idh) to 0.385 (Pep-la-Per4). Some practical applications of isozyme marker loci for cucumer improvement are discussed.  相似文献

Insights into the within-population spatial-genetic structure (SGS) of forest tree species, where little is known regarding seed and pollen dispersal patterns, enhance understanding of their ecology and provide information of value in conservation and breeding. This study utilised 13 polymorphic simple sequence repeat loci to investigate the impact of asexual recruitment, management regime and tree size on the development of SGS in wild cherry (Prunus avium L). Only 246 genotypes were identified in the 551 trees sampled, reflecting significant levels of clonal reproduction in both managed and unmanaged populations. Naturally regenerated wild cherry was spatially aggregated under both management regimes. However, in the managed population, sexually derived trees accounted for a greater proportion of the smaller size classes, whereas vegetatively produced trees dominated the smaller size classes in the unmanaged population. High overall SGS values (Sp 0.030-Sp 0.045) were observed when considering only sexually derived genets and kinship coefficients were significant up to the 120 m distance class for both populations. The inclusion of clonal ramets in the analysis significantly increased the overall SGS (Sp 0.089-Sp 0.119) as well as kinship coefficients in the 40-80 m distance classes, illustrating the dramatic impact of vegetative propagation on SGS in this species. Increased spatial aggregation and regeneration appeared to be concomitant with increased SGS in the 40 m distance class in the unmanaged population. Neighbourhood size estimates were relatively small for both populations and kinship coefficients were found to decline with distance under both management regimes, suggesting that common mechanisms may restrict gene dispersal in wild cherry.  相似文献

We report the sequence of 41 primer pairs of microsatellites from a CT-enriched genomic library of the peach cultivar 'Merrill O'Henry'. Ten microsatellite-containing clones had sequences similar to plant coding sequences in databases and could be used as markers for known functions. For microsatellites segregating at least in one of the two Prunus F(2) progenies analyzed, it was possible to demonstrate Mendelian inheritance. Microsatellite polymorphism was evaluated in 27 peach and 21 sweet cherry cultivars. All primer pairs gave PCR-amplification products on peach and 33 on cherry (80.5%). Six PCR-amplifications revealed several loci (14.6%) in peach and eight (19.5%) in sweet cherry. Among the 33 single-locus microsatellites amplified in peach and sweet cherry, 13 revealed polymorphism both in peach and cherry, 19 were polymorphic only on peach and one was polymorphic only on cherry. The number of alleles per locus ranged from 1 to 9 for peach and from 1 to 6 on sweet cherry with an average of 4.2 and 2.8 in peach and sweet cherry, respectively. Cross-species amplification was tested within the Prunus species: Prunus avium L. (sweet cherry and mazzard), Prunus cerasus L. (sour cherry), Prunus domestica L. (European plum), Prunus amygdalus Batsch. (almond), Prunus armeniaca L. (apricot), Prunus cerasifera Ehrh. (Myrobalan plum). Plants from other genera of the Rosaceae were also tested: Malus (apple) and Fragaria (strawberry), as well as species not belonging to the Rosaceae: Castanea (chestnut tree), Juglans (walnut tree) and Vitis (grapevine). Six microsatellites gave amplification on all the tested species. Among them, one had an amplified region homologous to sequences encoding a MADS-box protein in Malus x domestica. Twelve microsatellites (29.3%) were amplified in all the Rosaceae species tested and 31 (75.6%) were amplified in all the six Prunus species tested. Thirty three (80.5%), 18 (43.9%) and 13 (31.7%) gave amplification on chestnut tree, grapevine and walnut tree, respectively.  相似文献
