A total of 864 bases from 5 regions interspersed in the 18S and 26S rRNA molecules from various clones of Pteridium covering the general geographical distribution of the genus was analysed using a rapid rRNA sequencing technique. No base difference has been detected amongst the three major lineages, two of which apparently separated before the breakup of the ancient supercontinent, Pangaea. These regions of the rRNA sequences have thus been conserved for at least 160 million years and are here compared with other eukaryotic, especially plant rRNAs. 相似文献

Summary The nucleotide sequences of the 5S and 5.8S rRNAs of eight strains of tetrahymenine ciliates have been determined. The sequences indicate a clear distinction betweenTetrahymena paravorax and its suggested conspecificT. vorax, but leave the taxonomic distinction betweenT. vorax andT. leucophrys in doubt. The rRNA sequences of sixTetrahymena species and of three other species of the suborder Tetrahymenina have been used to deduce evolutionary schemes in which ancestral rRNA sequences and changes are proposed. These schemes suggest the predominant acceptance of GA and CT transitions in the 5S rDNA during the evolution of the suborder. 相似文献

Summary The 5S ribosomal RNAs from the cell cytoplasm and cyanelle (photosynthetic organelle) ofCyanophora paradoxa have been isolated and sequenced. The cellular and cyanelle 5S rRNAs were 119 and 118 nucleotides in length, respectively. Both RNAs exhibited typical 5S secondary structure, but the primary sequence of the cellular species was clearly eukaryotic in nature, while that of the organellar species was prokaryotelike. The primary sequence of the cyanellar 5S rRNA was most homologous to cyanobacterial 5S sequences, yet possessed secondary-structural features characteristic of higher-plant chloroplast 5S rRNAs. Both sequence comparison and structural analysis indicated an evolutionary position for cyanelle 5S rRNA intermediate between blue-green alga and chloroplast 5S rRNAs.Contribution from the Department of Biochemistry, School of Agriculture and Life Sciences and School of Physical and Mathematical Sciences, North Carolina State University, Raleigh, North Carolina.

The phylogenetic relationships of the angiosperm generaByblis andRoridula have been the subject of ongoing taxonomic controversy. Twenty-eight taxa of varying degrees of alleged relationship, including 3 members of theWinteraceae (as an outgroup), were investigated using partial sequences of 18S rRNA (small subunit) and also compared against the morphological data set fromHufford's (1992) cladistic treatment of 80 members of theRosidae-Asteridae. The morphological analysis placed the two genera in a clade with theSarraceniaceae in theCorniflorae-Asterid group as a sister taxon to anEricales-Hydrangeales clade. The 18S rRNA analysis supports the recently publishedrbcL DNA analysis ofAlbert & al. (1992), withRoridula joined to taxa in the lowerRosidae, butByblis joining instead to members of theAsteridae near theSolanaceae. Comparisons for congruence between the three analyses placeByblis in the higher Asterid group near theSolanaceae, andRoridula possibly nearer theSarraceniaceae andEricales. These results imply that the traditional morphological characters used to relate the two genera are possibly the result of convergence towards similar ecological and life-history strategies rather than synapomorphies. 相似文献

Summary We present the sequence of the nuclearencoded ribosomal small-subunit RNA from soybean. The soybean 18S rRNA sequence of 1807 nucleotides (nt) is contained in a gene family of approximately 800 closely related members per haploid genome. This sequence is compared with the ribosomal small-subunit RNAs of maize (1805 nt), yeast (1789 nt),Xenopus (1825 nt), rat (1869 nt), andEscherichia coli (1541 nt). Significant sequence homology is observed among the eukaryotic small-subunit rRNAs examined, and some sequence homology is observed between eukaryotic and prokaryotic small-subunit rRNAs. Conserved regions are found to be interspersed among highly diverged sequences. The significance of these comparisons is evaluated using computer simulation of a random sequence model. A tentative model of the secondary structure of soybean 18S rRNA is presented and discussed in the context of the functions of the various conserved regions within the sequence. On the basis of this model, the short basepaired sequences defining the four structural and functional domains of all 18S rRNAs are seen to be well conserved. The potential roles of other conserved soybean 18S rRNA sequences in protein synthesis are discussed. 相似文献

A 5S rRNA gene (5S DNA) from the coniferPinus radiata
D. Don has been cloned and characterized at the nucleotide, genomic and chromosomal levels. Sequencing revealed a repeat unit of 524 base pairs which is present in approximately 3000 copies per diploid genome. Two-dimensional gel electrophoresis indicated that these copies are organized in tandem arrays of various length. Using in situ hybridization techniques, the tandem arrays appear to be present on all of the chromosomes. This complexity of chromosomal organization contrasts markedly with the few sites of uniform length found in angiosperm plants such as wheat, pea, and maize. 相似文献

The tandemly repeated multigene families encoding 18S and 25S rRNAs were studied at the restriction enzyme level inPopulus alba L.,Populus deltoides
Bartr. exMarsh.,Populus trichocarpa
Torr. & Gray and in the hybrids between the last two mentioned species. The analysis of single and double digestion with EcoRI, BamHI, XbaI, and SstI endonucleases showed the presence of single repetitive unit types of 12.25 and 11.75kb inP. alba andP. trichocarpa, respectively.P. deltoides showed two rDNA gene types having the same length (12.25Kb) but different nucleotide sequence in the IGS. The rDNAs genes ofP. deltoides andP. triochocarpa are inherited codominantly in their hybrids. 相似文献

The genetic frequencies of 9 isozyme loci have been estimated in 23 samples of 4 species ofSecale by means of starch gel electrophoresis. The populations ofS. silvestre andS. vavilovii were monomorphic and uniform within each species, those ofS. montanum andS. cereale were polymorphic for most of the isozyme loci. On the basis of isozyme patterns as well as allelic and genotypic frequencies of isozyme loci,S. silvestre can be distinguished fromS. vavilovii, and both fromS. cereale andS. montanum; but there is no clear differentiation between the two latter species. Clusters constructed from genetic distances separateS. silvestre andS. vavilovii, whereasS. cereale andS. montanum were grouped together. The isozymatic data presented here, along with cytogenetic and life habit data, agree with the generally admitted existence of 4 species inSecale, and support the relationships suggested byKhush & Stebbins (1961). 相似文献

The nucleotide sequences of all three rRNA operons (rrnA, rrnB, and rrnC) of Sphingobium chungbukense DJ77 were determined. The three rrn operons have the same gene order (16S rRNA-tRNAIle-tRNAAla-23S rRNA-5S rRNA-tRNAfMet). The nucleotide sequences were identical over a 5,468 bp region spanning the 16S rRNA gene to the 5S rRNA gene. Variability
was observed in the 5S rRNA-tRNAfMet spacer sequence of rrnB. The tRNAfMet gene sequences were identical except for two bases (T5794 and A5871 in rrnB, T5942 and A5956 in rrnA, but C5942 and G5956 in rrnC). Comparative sequence analyses of ribosomal RNA operons from DJ77 with those of the class Alphaproteobacteria, to which the genus Sphingobium belongs, reveal close evolutionary relationships with other members of the order Sphingomonadales. 相似文献

Relationships between 9Oryza species, covering 6 different genomes, have been studied using hybridization and nucleotide sequence information from the5S Dna locus. Four to five units of the major size class of 5S DNA in each species, 55 units in all, were cloned and sequenced. Both hybridization and sequence data confirmed the basic differences between the A and B, C, D genome species suggested by morphological and cytological data. The 5S DNA units of the A genome species were very similar, as were the ones from the B, C, and D genome-containing species. The 5S DNA ofO. australiensis (E genome) grouped with the B, C, D cluster, while the units ofO. brachyantha (F genome) were quite different and grouped away from all other species. 5S DNA units fromO. minuta, O. latifolia, O. australiensis, andO. brachyantha hybridized strongly, and preferentially, to the genomic DNA from which the units were isolated and hence could be useful as species/genome specific probes. The 5S DNA units fromO. sativa, O. nivara, andO. rufipogon provided A genome-specific probes as they hybridized preferentially to A genome DNA. The units fromO. punctata andO. officinalis displayed weaker preferential hybridization toO. punctata DNA, possibly reflecting their shared genome (C genome). 相似文献

We have studied in vivothe phenotypes of 23S rRNA mutations G2582A, G2582U, G2583C, and U2584C, which are located at the A site of Escherichia coli50S ribosomal subunit. All mutant rRNAs incorporated into 50S ribosomal subunits. Upon sucrose gradient fractionation of cell lysates, 23S rRNAs mutated at G2582 to A and G2583 to C accumulated in the 50S and 70S fractions and were underrepresented in the polysome fraction. Induction of 23S rRNAs mutated at G2582 and G2583 lead to a drastic reduction in cell growth. In addition, mutations G2582A and G2583C reduced to one-third the total protein synthesis but not the RNA synthesis. Finally, we show that 23S rRNA mutations G2582A, G2582U, and G2583C cause a significant increase in peptidyl-tRNA drop-off from ribosomes, thereby reducing translational processivity. The results clearly show that tRNA–23S rRNA interaction has an essential role in maintaining the processivity of translation. 相似文献

Summary Two strains ofEeniella nana were examined for their partial base sequences of 18S and 26S rRNAs. In the partial base sequences of 18S rRNA (prositions 1451 through 1618, 168 bases) the strains ofE. nana have five, five, four and eleven base differences with those ofDekkera bruxellensis (type species).D. anomala (andBrettanomyces anomalus),D. naardenensis andD. custersiana, respectively. In the 26S rRNA partial base sequencings (positions 1611 through 1835, 225 bases and positions 493 through 622, 130 bases) the base differences were 46, 43, 34 and 40 and the percent similarities were 53–54, 51–54, 56–57 and 51–53, respectively. The sequence data obtained are discussed phylogenetically and taxonomically, especially on retention of the generic nameEeniella.This paper is dedicated to Professor Herman Jan Phaff in honor of his 50 years of active research which still continues.Significance of the coenzyme Q system in the classification of yeasts and yeast-like organisms.

In a chemotaxonomic study of the genusSymphytum pyrrolizidine alkaloids and triterpenes were used as chemotaxonomical markers. A micro-extraction methods was developed for screening compounds of very small pieces of herbarium material.

Weinm. The chemotaxonomic hypothesis, proposed byGadella and collaborators, based on the presence of the triterpene isobauerenol inS. officinale and its absence inS. asperum
Lepech. and the presence of the pyrrolizidine alkaloid echimidine inS. asperum and its absence inS. officinale, can no longer be applied absolutely to theS. officinale species complex. The pyrrolizidine alkaloid and triterpene pattern ofS. officinale (2n = 24) andS. bohemicum (2n = 24) is identical.S. bohemicum is morphologically, cytologically and phytochemically very similar toS. officinale. Furthermore, it readily crosses with the white flowered W. European diploids ofS. officinale. Therefore it seems likely that these two taxa are conspecific.S. tanaicense shows a pyrrolizidine alkaloid and triterpene pattern similar toS. officinale (2n = 40). Also on morphological and cytological grounds they are very similar. It seems highly probable thatS. tanaicense is conspecific withS. officinale (2n = 40) and represents an intraspecific variant only.S. officinale var.lanceolatum contained no pyrrolizidine alkaloids but did contain isobauerenol. This feature points to an origin fromS. officinale. 相似文献

A collection of 44 cloned 5S DNA units fromTriticum aestivum cv. Chinese Spring were grouped into 12 sequence-types based on sequence similarity and the respective consensus sequences were then produced. The relationship between these 12 consensus sequences (T. aestivum S 1-S 8 andT. aestivum L 1-L 4), together with two clones sequenced byGerlach andDyer, and the 5S DNA consensus sequences from diploidTriticum spp. were then determined by numerical methods. Both phenetic and cladistic analyses were carried out. The following wheat 5S DNA sequences were found to group with respective sequences from diploidTriticum spp.:T. aestivum S 4, S 6 withT. tauschii S;T. aestivum S 3 withT. monococcum S andT. monococcum S-Rus 7;T. aestivum L 1 andT. aestivum L-G&D withT. speltoides L;T. aestivum L 2, L 3 withT. tauschii L;T. aestivum L 4 withT. monococcum L andT. monococcum L-Rus 12. The analyses suggested that 5 out of the 65S Dna loci present in wheat were identified at the sequence level. The locus that could not be identified in this analysis was the5S Dna-B 1 locus. A group ofT. aestivum sequences (T. aestivum S 1, S 7, S 8, S-G&D) were found to be distinct from the other 5S DNA sequences in the data base. The existence of the distinct group of 5S DNA sequences suggests that there is a gap in our current understanding of wheat evolution with respect to the5S Dna loci. 相似文献

Quantitatively evaluated C-banded and conventional karyograms are presented for the related speciesScilla bifolia subsp.danubialis
Speta,S. drunensis (Speta)Speta, andS. vindobonensis
Speta. On the basis of banding patterns and karyotype structureS. bifolia subsp.danubialis (2n = 18, 2×) andS. drunensis (2n = 36, 4×) are quite similar, whileS. vindobonensis (2n = 18, 2×) is entirely different. There is a moderate degree of karyotypic variation withinS. bifolia subsp.danubialis andS. drunensis. However, inS. vindobonensis karyotypes and banding patterns are almost completely stable over a geographical range of about 500 km. The present results confirm the recent taxonomic separation ofS. vindobonensis fromS. bifolia, and suggest a considerable phylogenetic distance between these two diploid species. The results are discussed with reference to the morphological characters of the species and their geographical distribution.Evolution ofScilla and Related Genera, II.Dedicated to Univ.-Prof. Dr.Elisabeth Tschermak-Woess on the occasion of her 60th birthday. 相似文献

Senecio vulgaris L. (2n = 40) is suggested to be of autotetraploid origin fromS. vernalis
Waldst. & Kit. (2n = 20). This conclusion is based on results obtained from experimental hybridisations and cytological observations, and the consideration of morphological affinities, patterns of geographical distribution and hybrid formation under natural conditions. The morphological differences between the two species are related to a difference in the breeding system. WhilstS. vernalis is self-incompatible,S. vulgaris is self-compatible and strongly self-pollinating. Equally, other self-pollinating taxa traditionally associated withS. vulgaris are shown to have evolved independently from outbreeding relatives. Within a narrow frame of relationship, annual weeds have evolved in different cytotaxonomic circumstances. 相似文献

Cypripedioideae (Orchidaceae) have been the subject of numerous taxonomic treatments with conflicting interpretations of relationships among the five genera and the 150–170 species. We have produced nuclear ribosomal ITS nucleotide sequences for nearly 100 slipper orchid species and used parsimony analysis to investigate their relationships. Our results demonstrate that each genus, as currently circumscribed, is monophyletic (Mexipedium andSelenipedium being represented by a single taxon). LikerbcL data, ITS sequences placeMexipedium sister toPhragmipedium. Relationships at the sectional level inPaphiopedilum are largely as described byCribb. However, the division ofPaphiopedilum into subgg.Brachypetalum andPaphiopedilum is not supported; subg.Brachypetalum is paraphyletic to subg.Paphiopedilum. Phragmipedium species are divided into the same three major clades as in the taxonomic scheme ofMcCook. The plicate-leaved genera,Cypripedium andSelenipedium, are successive sister groups to the rest of the subfamily, confirming generally held opinions that they display plesiomorphic characters compared to the conduplicate-leaved genera. A survey of karyotypes in the context of the ITS tree reveals a general trend toward increased chromosome number, probably brought about by centric fission. These data also accord with a previously suggested biogeographic hypothesis of a widespread Northern Hemisphere distribution, followed by range fragmentation due to Miocene cooling. 相似文献

The marine green coccoidal alga Nanochlorum eukaryotum (N.e.) is of small size with an average diameter of 1.5 m. It is characterized by primitive-appearing biochemical and morphological properties, which are considerably different from those of other green algae. Thus, it has been proposed that N.e. may be an early developed algal form. To prove this hypothesis, DNA of N.e. was isolated by a phenol extraction procedure, and the chloroplast DNA separated by preparative CsCl density-gradient centrifugation. The kinetic complexity of the nuclear and of the chloroplast DNA was evaluated by reassociation kinetics to 3 × 107 by and 9 × 104 bp, respectively. Several chloroplast genes, including the rRNA genes, were cloned on distinct fragments. The order of the rRNA genes corresponds to the common prokaryotic pattern. The 16S rRNA gene comprises 1,548 bases and is separated from the 23S rRNA gene with its 2,920 bases by a short spacer of 460 bases, which also includes the tRNAIle and tRNAAla genes. The 5S rRNA gene has not been found; it must start further than 500 bases downstream from the 3-end of the 23S rRNA gene. From the chloroplast rRNA sequences, we have deduced secondary structures of the 16S and 23S rRNAs, which are in agreement with standard models. The rRNA sequences were aligned with corresponding chloroplast sequences; phylogenetic relationships were calculated by several methods. From these calculations, we conclude that N.e. is most closely related to Chlorella vulgaris. Therefore, N.e. does not represent an early developed algal species; the primitive-appearing morphological and biochemical characteristics of N.e. must rather be explained by secondary losses.
