A cDNA (msaCIG) encoding a cold-inducible Y2K4 dehydrin in alfalfa (Medicago
sativa spp. sativa) was shown to share extensive homology with sequences from other species and subspecies of Medicago. Differences were mainly the result of the occurrence of large indels, amino acids substitutions/deletions and sequence duplications.
Using a combination of a bulk segregant analysis and RFLP hybridization, we uncovered an msaCIG polymorphism that increases in frequency in response to recurrent selection for superior freezing tolerance. Progenies
from crosses between genotypes with (D+) or without (D−) the polymorphic dehydrin significantly differed in their tolerance
to subfreezing temperatures. Based on the msaCIG sequence, we looked for intragenic variations that could be associated to the polymorphism detected on Southern blots.
Amplifications with primers targeting the 3′ half side of msaCIG revealed fragment size variations between pools of genotypes with (+) or without (−) the polymorphism. Three major groups
of amplicons of ≈370 nt (G1), 330 nt (G2), and 290 nt (G3) were distinguished. The G2 group was more intensively amplified
in pools of genotypes with the polymorphic dehydrin and was associated to a superior freezing tolerance phenotype. Sequences
analysis revealed that size variation in the 3′ half was attributable to the variable occurrence of large indels. Single amino
acid substitutions and/or deletions caused major differences in the prediction of the secondary structure of the polypeptides.
The identification of dehydrin variants associated to superior freezing tolerance paves the way to the development of functional
markers and the fixation of favorable alleles in various genetic backgrounds. 相似文献

Winter freezing damage is a crucial factor in overwintering crops such as the octoploid strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) when grown in a perennial cultivation system. Our study aimed at assessing metabolic processes and regulatory mechanisms in the close-related diploid model woodland strawberry (Fragaria vesca L.) during a 10-days cold acclimation experiment. Based on gas chromatography/time-of-flight-mass spectrometry (GC/TOF-MS) metabolite profiling of three F. vesca genotypes, clear distinctions could be made between leaves and non-photosynthesizing roots, underscoring the evolvement of organ-dependent cold acclimation strategies. Carbohydrate and amino acid metabolism, photosynthetic acclimation, and antioxidant and detoxification systems (ascorbate pathway) were strongly affected. Metabolic changes in F. vesca included the strong modulation of central metabolism, and induction of osmotically-active sugars (fructose, glucose), amino acids (aspartic acid), and amines (putrescine). In contrast, a distinct impact on the amino acid proline, known to be cold-induced in other plant systems, was conspicuously absent. Levels of galactinol and raffinose, key metabolites of the cold-inducible raffinose pathway, were drastically enhanced in both leaves and roots throughout the cold acclimation period of 10 days. Furthermore, initial freezing tests and multifaceted GC/TOF-MS data processing (Venn diagrams, independent component analysis, hierarchical clustering) showed that changes in metabolite pools of cold-acclimated F. vesca were clearly influenced by genotype. 相似文献

This study reports the development and characterization of 10 polymorphic microsatellite primer pairs in wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca). The primers were designed from a genomic library enriched for di‐, tri‐ and tetranucleotide repeats from F. vesca‘Reugen’. They showed single locus polymorphism in a set of nine F. vesca accessions; two to six alleles were detected per locus. The level of polymorphism in F. vesca was surprisingly low, although three pairs of primers were sufficient to distinguish between most accessions. 相似文献

Polyamines,floral induction and floral development of strawberry (Fragaria ananassa Duch.) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
In the short-day plant, strawberry (Fragaria ananassa Duch.), polyamines (putrescine, spermidine and spermine), conjugated spermidine (water-insoluble compounds) and bound amines (putrescine, spermidine, phenylethylamine, 3-hydroxy, 4-methoxyphenylethylamine) accumulated in the shoot tips during floral induction and before floral emergence. Different associations of free amines and conjugated amines were observed during floral induction, as compared with the reproductive phase. During the whole period of floral development, phenylethylamine (an aromatic amine) was the predominant amine, representing 80 to 90% of the total free amine pool. Phenylethylamine conjugates (water-insoluble compounds) were the predominant amides observed prior to fertilization. These substances decreased drastically after fertilization. In vegetative shoot tips from plants grown continously under long days, free polyamines (putrescine, spermidine) and bound polyamines (putrescine, spermidine) were low and no change was observed. Free amines (spermine and phenylethylamine), bound aromatic amines (phenylethylamine, 3-hydroxy, 4-methoxyphenylethylamine), conjugated spermidine and phenylethylamine did not appear. Male-sterile flowers were distinguished by their lack of conjugated spermidine and phenylethyalamine and by a decrease in free phenylethylamine. In normal and sterile strawberry plants -DL-difluoromethylornithine (DFMO), a specific irreversible inhibitor of ornithine decarboxylase (ODC), caused inhibition of flowering and free and polyamine conjugates. When putrescine was added, polyamine titers and flowering were restored. A similar treatment with -DL-difluoromethylarginine (DFMA), a specific, irreversible inhibitor of arginine decarboxylase (ADC), did not affect flowering and polyamine titers. These results suggest that ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) and polyamines are involved in regulating floral initiation in strawberry. The relationship between polyamines, aromatic amines, conjugates, floral initiation and male sterility is discussed.Abbreviations ADC

Cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD; EC 1.1.1.195) catalyses the conversion of p-hydroxy-cinnamaldehydes to the corresponding alcohols and is considered a key enzyme in lignin biosynthesis. By a differential screening of a strawberry (Fragariax ananassa cv. Chandler) fruit specific subtractive cDNA library, a full-length clone corresponding to a cad gene was isolated (Fxacad1). Northern blot and quantitative real time PCR studies indicated that the strawberry Fxacad1 gene is expressed in fruits, runners, leaves, and flowers but not in roots. In addition, the gene presented a differential expression in fruits along the ripening process. Moreover, by screening of a strawberry genomic library a cad gene was isolated (Fxacad2). Similar to that found in other cad genes from higher plants, this strawberry cad gene is structured in five exons and four introns. Southern blot analyses suggest that, probably, a small cad gene family exists in strawberry. RT-PCR studies indicated that only the Fxacad1 gene was expressed in all the fruit ripening stages and vegetative tissues analysed. The Fxacad1 cDNA was expressed in E. coli cells and the corresponding protein was used to raise antibodies against the strawberry CAD polypeptide. The antibodies obtained were used for immunolocalization studies. The results showed that the CAD polypeptide was localized in lignifying cells of all the tissues examined (achenes, fruit receptacles, runners, leaves, pedicels, and flowers). Additionally, the cDNA was also expressed in yeast (Pichia pastoris) as an extracellular protein. The recombinant protein showed activity with the characteristic substrates of CAD enzymes from angiosperms, indicating that the gene cloned corresponds to a CAD protein. 相似文献

The present investigation was targeted towards a highly desirable everbearing trait in strawberry (Fragaria × ananassa Duch.) via marker assisted selection while seeing its worldwide commercial applicability through the extended harvest season. The crosses were made between everbearing and june-bearing cultivars to raise the F1 individuals. Morphological characters (plant, floral, and fruit) were assessed that showed significant differences among the strawberry cultivars. Molecular characterization was carried out between everbearing and non-everbearing cultivars using RAPD and SSR markers. For phenotyping, a chi-square test was performed and revealed that out of all four cross combinations, the best fitted cross found to be in Mendelian segregation ratio (1:1) was ‘Confectura’ × ‘Torrey’ with χ2-value 1.58. Further, the identified polymorphic markers were assessed across the F1 individuals of cross ‘Confectura’ × ‘Torrey’ for its genotyping. It could be revealed that the targeted everbearing trait is governed by a dominant gene(s) in the subjected strawberry genotypes. Further, the identified polymorphic markers would be successfully employed in DNA fingerprinting of strawberry under various crop improvement programme.Supplementary informationThe online version of this article (10.1007/s12298-020-00916-w) contains supplementary material, which is available to authorized users. 相似文献

Androgenesis by anther culture or isolated microspore culture is the most efficient method for haploid production. In this study, the effects of cold pretreatment (4 °C), silver nitrate, and iron source in the medium were investigated on anther culture of five strawberry cultivars (Camarosa, Selva, Pajaro, Paros, and Gaviota) in three independent experiments, and three traits including percentage of androgenic anthers, embryogenesis, and callogenesis were determined. In the first experiment, cold pretreatment of 4 °C for 2 and 3 days produced the highest percentage of androgenic anthers in three cultivars (Camarosa, Selva, and Pajaro) and cold pretreatment of 4 °C for 2 days produced the highest percentage of androgenic anthers in cultivar Paros. In the second experiment, the effect of Fe-EDDHA was more effective than Fe-EDTA, and increased the percentage of androgenic anthers and embryogenesis. The use of 57.5 mg l?1 Fe-EDDHA produced the highest percentage of androgenic anthers in cultivar Camarosa and the best embryogenesis in cultivars Camarosa and Gaviota. In the third experiment, the use of 15 mg l?1 silver nitrate in medium significantly increased the percentage of androgenic anthers and embryogenesis in cultivar Camarosa. 相似文献

In contrast to the strawberry fruits, strawberry leaves as a source of bioactive compounds with potentially beneficial biological effects have been largely overlooked. In this study we examined direct, dose-dependent effects of wild strawberry (Fragaria vesca, L.) leaves aqueous extract, in two experimental models and animal species, the isolated guinea pig hearts and rat aortic rings. Vasodilatory potential of the wild strawberry leaves extract was compared with vasodilatory activity of aqueous extract of hawthorn (Crataegus oxycantha, L) leaves with flowers, which can be regarded as a reference plant extract with a marked vasodilatory activity.The extracts were analysed by their “phenolic fingerprints”, total phenolic content and antioxidative capacity. Their vasodilatory activity was determined and compared in the isolated aortic rings from 24 rats that were exposed to the extracts doses of 0.06, 0.6, 6, and 60 mg/100 ml. Both extracts induced similar, dose-dependent vasodilation. Maximal relaxation was 72.2±4.4% and 81.3±4.5%, induced by the strawberry and hawthorn extract, respectively. To determine vasodilatory mechanisms of the wild strawberry leaves extract, endothelium-denuded and intact rings exposed to nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor l-NAME or cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin were used. Removal of the endothelium prevented and exposure to l-NAME or indomethacin strongly diminished the vasodilatatory response to the extract. In the isolated hearts (n=12), the wild strawberry extract was applied at concentrations of 0.06, 0.18, 0.6, and 1.8 mg/100 ml. Each dose was perfused for 3.5 min with 15 min of washout periods. Heart contractility, electrophysiological activity, coronary flow and oxygen consumption were continuously monitored. The extract did not significantly affect heart rate and contractility, main parameters of the cardiac action that determine oxygen demands, while coronary flow increased up to 45% over control value with a simultaneous decrease of oxygen extraction by 34%.The results indicate that the aqueous extract of wild strawberry leaves is a direct, endothelium-dependent vasodilator, action of which is mediated by NO and cyclooxygenase products and which potency is similar to that of the hawthorn aqueous extract. 相似文献

Melatonin has the ability to improve plant growth and strengthened plant tolerance to environmental stresses; however, the effects of melatonin on mitochondrial respiration in plants and the underlying biochemical and molecular mechanisms are still unclear. The objective of the study is to determine possible effects of melatonin on mitochondrial respiration and energy efficiency in maize leaves grown under optimum temperature and cold stress and to reveal the relationship between melatonin-induced possible alterations in mitochondrial respiration and cold tolerance. Melatonin and cold stress, alone and in combination, caused significant increases in activities and gene expressions of pyruvate dehydrogenase, citrate synthase, and malate dehydrogenase, indicating an acceleration in the rate of tricarboxylic acid cycle. Total mitochondrial respiration rate, cytochrome pathway rate, and alternative respiration rate were increased by the application of melatonin and/or cold stress. Similarly, gene expression and protein levels of cytochrome oxidase and alternative oxidase were also enhanced by melatonin and/or cold stress. The highest values for all these parameters were obtained from the seedlings treated with the combined application of melatonin and cold stress. The activity and gene expression of ATP synthase and ATP concentration were augmented by melatonin under control and cold stress. On the other hand, cold stress reduced markedly plant growth parameters, including root length, plant height, leaf surface area, and chlorophyll content and increased the content of reactive oxygen species (ROS), including superoxide anion and hydrogen peroxide and oxidative damage, including malondialdehyde content and electrolyte leakage level; however, melatonin significantly promoted the plant growth parameters and reduced ROS content and oxidative damage under control and cold stress. These data revealed that melatonin-induced growth promotion and cold tolerance in maize is associated with its modulating effect on mitochondrial respiration. 相似文献

Salt-extractable proteins from the cell walls of immature and ripe strawberry ( Fragaria × ananassa Duch. cv. Elsanta) fruit were separated using two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Seven polypeptides (enzymes) were characterized from their N-terminal sequences: (1) glyceraldhyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase (EC 1.2.1.12); (2) triose phosphate isomerase (TPI; EC 5.3.1.1); (3) mitochondrial malate dehydrogenase (mMDH; EC 1.1.1.37); (4) NADH glutamate dehydrogenase (EC 1.4.1.3); (5) chalcone synthase (ChS; EC 2.3.1.74); (6) mitochondrial citrate synthase (mCS; EC 4.1.3.7); and (7) UDP glucose:flavonoid 3- O -glucosyltransferase (UDPG:FGT; EC 2.4.1.91). The sequenced polypeptides identified only cytosolic proteins, two of which (ChS and UDPG:FGT) had already been identified as being up-regulated in ripening (strawberry) fruit and important contributors to ripe fruit character. Our focus was therefore diverted to the enzymes mMDH and mCS for further molecular characterization as potentially important determinants of fruit flavour via regulation of the sugar : acid balance. Citrate synthase (CS) and malate dehydrogenase (MDH) enzyme activities increased substantially during ripening, as did citrate and malate contents. The increase in CS activity is supported by western blot analysis. One strawberry mCS ( Fa-mCS-I ) and two mMDH ( Fa-mMDH-I and -II ) cDNAs were cloned that were 77, 82 and 53% identical (respectively) to sequences from other plant sources. Northern analysis showed that CS and MDH expression did not correlate with enzyme activities and these findings are discussed. 相似文献

Vermicompost substitution influences growth, physiological disorders, fruit yield and quality of strawberry (Fragaria x ananassa Duch.) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Studies were conducted to determine the effect of vermicompost on growth, physiological disorders, fruit yield and quality of 'Chandler' strawberry. For this, 4 levels of vermicompost (2.5, 5.0, 7.5 and 10.0tha(-1)) were supplemented with inorganic fertilizers to balance fertilizer requirement of strawberry under semi-arid region of northern India. The vermicompost was incorporated into top 10cm layer of soil, which was supplemented on the basis of chemical analysis, with amount of inorganic N, P, K fertilizer calculated to equalize the recommended dose of nutrients. Vermicompost application increased plant spread (10.7%), leaf area (23.1%) and dry matter (20.7%), and increased total fruit yield (32.7%). Substitution of vermicompost drastically reduced the incidence of physiological disorders like albinism (16.1-4.5%); fruit malformation (11.5-4.0%) and occurrence of grey mould (10.4-2.1%) in strawberry indicating that vermicompost had significant role in reducing nutrient-related disorders and disease like Botrytis rot, and thereby increasing the marketable fruit yield up to 58.6% with better quality parameters. Fruit harvested from plant receiving vermicompost were firmer, have higher TSS, ascorbic acid content and lower acidity, and have attractive colour. All these parameters appeared to be dose dependent and best results were achieved @ 7.5tha(-1), however, beyond this dose of vermicompost, there was not significant influence on these parameters. 相似文献

Glucocorticoids promote the mobilization of energy stores and they may facilitate the expression of energetically expensive
functions. Early arrival on the breeding grounds in migratory species and territorial competition are energetically demanding
activities that may be supported by elevated baseline glucocorticoid levels. Here, we evaluated the associations between the
baseline levels of excreted corticosterone (CORT) metabolites of male Pied Flycatchers (Ficedula hypoleuca) just after arriving on their breeding area and timing of arrival, considering ornamental traits indicative of social status,
like forehead patch size and black plumage coloration, as well as heat shock protein levels (HSP60). We observed a positive
association of CORT metabolites with HSP60 levels, which are synthesized under several environmental challenges affecting
cell homeostasis. Our data showed a negative association between arrival date and CORT metabolite levels, possibly as a result
of the higher energetic demands imposed by the hard environmental conditions experienced at the time of an early arrival after
migration. We observed a negative relationship of forehead patch dimensions and CORT metabolite levels, suggesting that dominance
is associated with low baseline CORT metabolites. Also, males that expressed a higher degree of territorial behaviour when
exposed to a playback song of a conspecific at their nest-box showed higher CORT metabolites upon arrival than males that
expressed a lower degree of territorial behavior. This may indicate that elevated baseline CORT metabolite levels may facilitate
an intense territorial competition in males. Thus, male–male competition may be a factor affecting observed baseline glucocorticoid
levels in migratory birds. 相似文献

Cucumber mosaic virus (CMV) is a commonly occurring plant virus that causes severe damage in many crops, including the diploid
crop species tomato and pepper (Lycopersicon spp. and Capsicum spp., respectively) of the family Solanaceae, but it is neither common nor economically important in cultivated potatoes
(Solanum tuberosum; Solanaceae). Resistance to CMV was examined in two diploid (2n=2x=24), highly heterozygous potato populations (Solanum spp.; Solanaceae) consisting of 76 and 126 progeny. Resistance to long-distance transport of CMV controlled by one locus
with a major effect and functional at a low temperature (18°C) but overcome at a high temperature (28°C) was identified in
one population. In the other population, resistance was controlled by two loci with major effects. In both populations, additional
genes with minor effects were probably also involved. Induced resistance to CMV, associated with autonomously developing cell
death lesions (Anl) previously not known in potato, was expressed in one parental line. The mechanisms of resistance to CMV
may be associated with an inherent or developmental lack of host factors required for compatible CMV-host interactions in
viral long distance transport and/or inability of CMV to efficiently suppress the host gene silencing mechanism in potatoes.
Polyploidy (gene dose) and high heterozygosity (multiple homologous genes) of potato cultivars may be significant in conferring
the durable resistance to CMV. These data provide explanations why CMV is not common and economically important in cultivated
potatoes, even though CMV commonly occurs in other crops, weeds and wild plants in potato production areas.

Summary A transient ß-glucuronidase (GUS)-assay was performed to evaluate electroporation parameters and optimize DNA delivery conditions into strawberry protoplasts. Optimal GUS-activity was obtained when protoplasts were subjected to 400 V/cm for 20 ms. GUS-activity could be further increased by the addition of carrier DNA to the electroporation mixture. Callus selected on 10 g/ml hygromycin produced shoots which exhibited GUS-activity. The transformed nature of the shoots obtained after selection was confirmed by DNA-analysis.Abbreviations CaMV

Soil pollution is a world-wide problem, with heavy metals being a major part of the concern. To investigate the effect of temperature on cadmium (Cd) uptake and translocation, as well as Cd tolerance in wild and cultivated species of safflower, a hydroponic experiment was conducted under controlled conditions. The responses of four wild genotypes (Isfahan, Arak, Azari, and Shiraz) and four cultivated genotypes (AC-Sterling, 2811, Saffire, and C111) of safflower to nine levels of CdCl2 (0, 0.5, 1, 5, 10, 20, 50, 100, and 500 μM) in solution were examined under two temperatures (18 and 23 °C). Cadmium sensitivity was determined using the Weibull model on the total dry weight of the plants. Cadmium uptake and translocation were analyzed on 1 μM Cd treated plants. Results revealed that safflower genotypes differed in terms of uptake, translocation, and tolerance to Cd, with AC-Sterling and Arak indicating the most and the least tolerance to Cd, respectively. Relative Cd uptake and Cd concentration in roots and shoots increased with an increase in temperature in all genotypes, with the exception of AC-Sterling. Net accumulation of Cd via root increased with an increase in temperature for the wild Azari and the cultivated 2811, Saffire, and C111, though it decreased for the rest of genotypes. Cadmium translocation to shoots significantly increased with increased temperature in all genotypes. Cadmium translocation from roots to shoots in cultivated genotypes was significantly greater than in wild genotypes. Root Cd concentration in wild genotypes was significantly greater than in cultivated genotypes. It seems that wild and cultivated species of safflower differ in their response to Cd. Furthermore, temperature may affect the plant's tolerance to Cd, probably through accompanying changes in Cd uptake and translocation from root to shoot. 相似文献
