Oocysts of Isospora ernsti n. sp. and Isospora blagburni n. sp. are described from the black-capped bulbul Pycnonotus xanthopygos from Lincoln Park Zoo, Chicago, Illinois. The bird came from southwestern Africa seven years earlier. I. ernsti oocysts are ellipsoidal to bluntly ovoid, 28–38 × 23–31m (mean 34 × 28 m) and have a single-layered oocyst wall. Micropyle, oocyst residuum and polar granules are absent. Sporocysts are elongate ovoid, 24–30 × 11–16 m (mean 27×13 m). Stieda and substiedal bodies and sporocyst residuum are present. I. blagburni oocysts are spherical to subspherical. 21–28 × 19–26 m (mean 25 × 23 m) and have a single oocyst wall. Sporocysts are ovoid and 17–23 × 10–13 m (mean 20 × 12 m). Stieda and substiedal bodies and sporocyst residuum are present. 相似文献

Two constitutive acetoacetyl-CoA (AcAc-CoA) reductases were purified from Methylobacterium rhodesianum MB 126, an NADPH-linked d(-)--hydroxybutyryl-CoA forming reductase (enzyme A) and an NADH-and NADPH-linked l(+)--hydroxybutyryl-CoA forming reductase (enzyme B). Enzyme A and B give apparent K
m values of 15 M and 30 M for AcAc-CoA, 18 M for NADPH and 30 M for NADH, respectively. They are inhibited by AcAc-CoA at concentrations higher than 25 M and 50 M, respectively. The contribution of the two reductases to poly--hydroxybutyrate synthesis is discussed. 相似文献

Five new species of Eimeria are described from lizards. Eimeria baltrocki n. sp. was found in the berber skink, Eumeces schneideri, from Egypt. The oöcysts are cylindroidal, averaging 38 × 18.3 m, with a single thick oöcyst wall. Most oöcysts possess a single polar granule; a micropyle and oöcyst residuum are absent. The sporocysts are ellipsoidal and average 11.5 × 8.1 m, each with a large, globular sporocyst residuum; the Stieda body is absent. Eimeria anolidis n. sp. is described form the common anole, Anolis carolinensis, from Florida, USA. The oöcysts are cylindroidal and average 31 × 15.8 m with a thick, single-layered oöcyst wall. Two polar granules are usually present; a micropyle and oöcyst residuum absent. The sporocysts are ellipsoidal and average 9.4 × 7.5 m with a globular sporocyst residuum; the Stieda body is absent. Eimeria guyanensis n. sp is recorded in the ameiva, Ameiva ameiva, from Guyana, South America. The oöcysts are spherical to subspherical, average 19.0 × 17.8 m and possess a thick, single-layered oöcyst wall. Numerous polar granules are present (n > 5); a micropyle and oöcyst residuum are absent. The sporocysts are spherical to subspherical, average 7.5 × 7.8 m and possess a compact globular sporocyst residuum; the Stieda body is absent. Eimeria phelsumae n. sp. was recovered from the giant day gecko, Phelsuma madagascariensis grandis, from Madagascar, which harboured a simultaneous infection of E. brygooi. The oöcysts measured 32 × 15 m and are cylindroidal without polar granules, a micropyle or oöcyst residuum, or a Steida body. The sporocysts are ellipsoidal and average 9.8 × 7 m, with a loosely clumped, granular sporocyst residuum; the Steida body is absent. Eimeria leiocephali n. sp. was discovered in the faeces of the ornate ground iguana, Leiocephalus barahonensis, from Haiti. The oöcysts are spherical to subspherical, 21 × 19 m, and contain a number of polar granules (n > 5); a micropyle and oöcyst residuum are absent. The sporocysts are spherical, 8 m in diameter and lack a sporocyst residuum. Eimeria turcicus and E. lineri were found in faeces of Hemidactylus turcicus turcicus from the host's country of origin, Turkey. 相似文献

Somatic embryo formation was induced from cotyledon explants of Styrian pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L. subsp. pepo var. styriaca Greb.) by using a solid MS medium supplemented with 16.11M NAA and 4.44M BA or 26.85M NAA and 13.32M BA. The callus proliferation was more efficient on medium supplemented with 26.85M NAA and 13.32M BA. In contrast, the embryogenic response was higher on medium with lower concentrations of growth regulators (16.11M NAA and 4.44M BA). The time needed for embryo induction did not depend on medium composition. Embryos in globular stage were transferred to three different maturation media, containing 2.89M GA3 in combination with 0.54M NAA, 11.42M IAA and growth regulator-free medium. The germination rate was the highest when embryos were cultured on medium with 11.42M IAA. Plantlets grown on this medium achieved maturity suitable for transplantation into soil within 9 to 10weeks. The regenerated plants were successfully transferred into field and developed fertile flowers and set fruits. Biochemical analysis showed significant lower total glutathione levels among in vitro grown plantlets compared to seedlings grown in soil. When the plantlets were transferred into soil, they reached a normal size within a month and the glutathione concentration was comparable to seed-derived plants at the same developmental stage. Transmission electron microscopy was used to investigate possible differences in the ultrastructure of cells from callus cultures, and leaf cells of regenerated and seed-derived plants. Differences in the ultrastructure were found within chloroplasts which contained only single thylakoids, large starch grains and small plastoglobuli in callus cells in comparison to leaf cells, which possessed a well developed thylakoid system, small starch grains and large plastoglobuli. 相似文献

Aluminum-induced secretion of both citrate and malate in rye 总被引:5,自引:1,他引:4
Aluminum (Al)-resistant mechanisms responsible for Al-induced secretion of organic acids are poorly understood. In this study, we characterized the Al-induced secretion of both citrate and malate from rye (Secale cereale L. cv. King). Secretion of organic acids increased with increasing concentration (10, 30 and 50 M) and duration of Al treatments. Neither phosphorous (P) deficiency up to 15 days nor addition of 50M lanthanum, 50 M lead, 10 M cadmium, or 200 M manganese caused secretion of organic acids, suggesting that this secretion was a specific response to Al stress. Aluminum activated citrate synthase, the main enzyme for the synthesis of citrate, but its activation occurred only in the root tip. The elongation of roots of an Al-sensitive cultivar of wheat (Tritium aestivum L. cv. Scout 66) was not inhibited by 50 M Al in the presence of externally applied 50 M citrate or 400 M malate. The secretion of citrate and malate from intact rye roots exposed to 50 M Al corresponded to 31.3 ± 1.7 M and 11.5 ± 2.5 M, respectively, in the rhizosphere based on an assumption of a 2 mm thick unstirred layer around root tips. This result indicated that Al-resistance in rye was achieved by the Al-induced synthesis of citrate in root apices followed by Al-induced specific secretion of citrate from root tips. 相似文献

Asparagus maritimus L. Miller is a rare species growing of the Mediterranean region and is morphologically similar to A. officinalis. In order to establish an efficient in vitro propagation protocol, explants were excised from spear segments and cultured on Murashige and Skoog (1962) medium containing 3% sucrose and various concentrations of growth regulators. The best shoot initiation (3–4 per explant) was achieved on a medium containing 0.88 M N6-benzyladenine (BA), 0.93 M kinetin, 1.07 M -naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) and 3.90 M ancymidol. Shoot initiation could also be achieved without ancymidol but the shoots were thinner and longer. A very high shoot multiplication rate was achieved on media supplemented with 3% sucrose, 1.07 M NAA, 0.93 M kinetin, 0.44 M BA and various concentrations of ancymidol. The lowest concentration of ancymidol (0.39 M) significantly promoted the highest shoot multiplication rate (11.9 shoots/crown). For root formation, media were supplemented with 6% sucrose, 1.07 M NAA and various concentrations of ancymidol. Rooting frequency increased with higher ancymidol concentration up to 5.07 M (82.0% rooting). The number of ex vitro shoots formed was strongly correlated (r=0.66) with the length of roots formed in vitro, which was the highest at a 1.95 M ancymidol. 相似文献

Primary productivity, biomass and chlorophyll-a of size fractionated phytoplankton (<0.22 m, <3 m, <8 m, <10 m, <40 m, <64 m, <112 m and <200 m) were estimated in 6 ponds and 5 experimental enclosures. The results showed that the planktonic algae less than 10 m are important in the biomass and production of phytoplankton in saline–alkaline ponds. The production of size fractionated phytoplankton corresponding to <112 m, <10 m and <3 m in saline–alkaline ponds were 10.5 ± 6.6 , 8.6 ± 5.4 and 0.33 ± 0.1 mgC l–1 d–1, respectively. Mean community respiration rate was 1.80 ± 0.73, 1.69 ± 0.90 and 1.38 ± 1.12 mgC l–1 d–1, respectively. The average production of phytoplankton corresponding to micro- (10–112 m), nano- (3–10 m) and pico- (<3 m) were 1.61, 8.30 and 0.33 mgC l–1 d–1, respectively. The ratio of those to the total phytoplankton production was 15%, 79% and 3%, respectively. The mean respiration rate of the different size groups was 0.11, 0.31 and 1.38 mgC l–1 d–1; the ratio of those to total respiration of phytoplankton was 6%, 17% and 77%, respectively. The production of size-fractionated phytoplankton corresponding to <200 m, <10 m and <3 m in enclosures was 2.19 ± 1.63, 2.08 ± 1.75 and 0.22 ± 0.08 mgC l–1 d-1, respectively. Mean community respiration rates were 1.25 ± 1.55, 1.17 ± 1.42 and 0.47 ± 0.32 mgC l–1 d–1, respectively. The average production of phytoplankton corresponding to micro- (10–200 m), nano- (3–10 m) and pico- (<3 m) plankton was 0.11, 1.86 and 0.22 mgC l–1 d–1, respectively. The ratio of those to the total production of phytoplankton was 5%, 85% and 10%, respectively. The mean respiration rate of different size groups were 0.08, 0.72 and 0.46 mgC l–1 d–1, the ratio of those to total respiration of phytoplankton was 6%, 57% and 37%, respectively. The concentrations of chlorophyll-a of the phytoplankton in the corresponding size of micro- (10–112 m), nano- (3–10 m) and pico- (<3 m) plankton in the experimental ponds were 19.3, 98.2 and 11. 9 g l–1, respectively. The ratio of those to the total chlorophyll-a was 15%, 76% and 9%, respectively. The concentrations of chlorophyll-a of phytoplankton micro- (10–200 m), nano- (3–10 m) and pico- (<3 m) plankton in enclosures were 1.7, 34.3 and 3.0 g l–1, respectively. The ratio of those to the total chlorophyll-a was 4%, 88% and 8%, respectively. 相似文献

In vitro plant regeneration via somatic embryogenesis from root culture of some rhizomatous irises 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

A method for plant regeneration of Iris via somatic embryogenesis is described. Root and leaf pieces from in vitro-grown plants of several genotypes of rhizomatous Iris sp. were cultured in vitro. Callus induction occurred only on root cultures incubated under low light intensity (35 mol m-2 s-1) on two induction media containing 2,4-D (4.5 or 22.5 M), NAA (5.4 M) and kinetin (0.5 M). Somatic embryos developed after transfer of callus onto four regeneration media containing 9 or 22 M BA, or 5 M kinetin and 2 M TIBA or 9 M BA and 4 M TIBA. Plantlets could be obtained from these somatic embryos. Genotypic differences were found both in callus induction and somatic embryo formation, with I. pseudacorus responding better than I. versicolor or I. setosa. Cytological analysis performed on root tips of 80 regenerated plants revealed that two of the I. pseudacorus regenerants were tetraploid.Abbreviations 2,4-D

SUMMARY
1. We previously reported that angiotensin III modulates noradrenergic neurotransmission in the hypothalamus of the rat. In the present work we studied the effects of angiotensin III on norepinephrine release and tyrosine hydroxylase activity. We also investigated the receptors and intracellular pathways involved in angiotensin III modulation of noradrenergic transmission.2. In rat hypothalamic tissue labeled with [3H]norepinephrine 1, 10, and 100 nM and 1 M losartan (AT1 receptor antagonist) had no effect on basal neuronal norepinephrine release, whereas 10 and 100 nM and 1 M losartan partially diminished norepinephrine secretion evoked by 25 mM KCl. The AT2 receptor antagonist PD 123319 showed no effect either on basal or evoked norepinephrine release. The increase in both basal and evoked norepinephrine output induced by 1 M angiotensin III was blocked by 1 M losartan, but not by 1 M PD 123319.3. The phospholipase C inhibitor 5 M neomicin inhibited the increase in basal and evoked norepinephrine release produced by 1 M angiotensin III.4. Tyrosine hydroxylase activity was increased by 1 M angiotensin III and this effect was blocked by 1 M LST and 5 M neomicin, but not by PD 123319. On the other hand, 1 M angiotensin III enhanced phosphatidyl inositol hydrolysis that was blocked by 1 M losartan and 5 M neomicin. PD 123319 (1 M) did not affect ANG III-induced phosphatidyl inositol hydrolysis enhancement.5. Our results confirm that angiotensin III acts as a modulator of noradrenergic transmission at the hypothalamic level through the AT1-phospholipase C pathway. This enhancement of hypothalamic noradrenergic activity suggests that angiotensin III may act as a central modulator of several biological processes regulated at this level by catecholamines, such as cardiovascular, endocrine, and autonomic functions as well as water and saline homeostasis. 相似文献

Control of yeast fed-batch process through regulation of extracellular ethanol concentration 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0
At high growth rates, the biomass yield of bakers yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) decreases due to the production of ethanol. For this reason, it is standard industrial practice to use a fed-batch process whereby the specific growth rate, , is fixed at a level below the point of ethanol production, i.e., crit. Optimally, growth should be maintained at crit, but in practice, this is difficult because crit is dependent upon strain and culture conditions. In this work, growth was maintained at a point just above crit by regulating ethanol concentration in the bioreactor. The models used for control design are shown, as are the experimental results obtained when this strategy was implemented. This technique should be applicable to all microorganisms that exhibit an overflow type metabolism. 相似文献

Endogenous and xenobiotic sulphur-containing convulsant and non-convulsant compounds containing structural moieties of, or bearing a structural resemblance to, GABA and homocysteine were tested in binding studies for their potency in displacing the GABA-mimetic [3H]muscimol from specific, high-affinity sites (K

The xenobiotic convulsants, 4-mercaptobutyric acid (MBA), 3-mercaptopropionic acid (3-MPA) and 2-mercaptopropionic acid (2-MPA) were found to be two-site competitive inhibitors exhibiting apparent inhibition affinity constants (K

Eryngium foetidum L. plants were regenerated from mature leaf and petiole explants through direct organogenesis without intervening callus phase. From leaf explants, adventitious multiple shoots raised on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 4.43 M benzylaminopurine (BAP) and 0.57 M indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), whereas in petiole explants shoot regeneration occurred at 8.86 M BAP and 0.57 M IAAA. 80% of the leaf explants and 44% of petiole explants produced shoots after four weeks of culture. The regenerated plants were rooted on MS medium supplemented with 2.46 M indole-3-butyric acid and 2.88 M gibberellic acid. The plants were successfully established in the soil and showed 70.9% survival in the field. 相似文献

Nuclepore filters of 0.6–1.0m pore size have been used to prepare protist-free water for a number of studies in microbial ecology. This procedure has been called into question by a recent study claiming that a significant portion of bacterial loss in filtrates could be due to uncharacterized predators passing through 0.6m filters. We were unable to directly observe protists in 0.6m filtrates using phase contrast, epifluorescence, or transmission electron microscopy. Using the culture techniques of rice grain enrichment and most probable number, however, we were able to observe and quantify several species of bacterivorous nanoflagellates that developed not only in 0.6m, but also in 0.4m seawater filtrates. The ability of predacious nanoflagellates to squeeze through bacteria-sized pores questions studies of bacterial production and chemical cycling that have assumed protist-free filtrates. 相似文献

Summary The fine structure of the various hormone-producing cell types (with the exclusion of the prolactin cells) in the pituitary gland (pars distalis) of migratory sockeye salmon is described. All fish were in an advanced stage of sexual maturation. In the proximal pars distalis five cell types were distinguished: growth hormone cells, ACTH cells, gonadotrops, vesicular cells, and chromophobe cells. Gonadotrops were also found throughout the rostral pars distalis. A conspicuous feature of the gonadotrops was the presence of two kinds of secretory inclusions: small electron-dense granules (200–375 m) and large, relatively electron-translucent globules (400–2 000 m). The large vesicular cells, so called because of their conspicuous vesicular endoplasmic reticulum, were numerous and often appeared to contain some small granules. It is argued that they may represent a second type of gonadotropic cell, which, in earlier stages of gonad development, contains many granules but becomes largely degranulated near the time of reproduction when the other gonadotrops (globular gonadotrops) abound. The chromophobes, which were smaller and far less abundant than the vesicular cells, also appeared to contain small granules (120–280 m). They are probably thyrotrops.The assistance of Mr. S. Killick, of the International Pacific Salmon Fisheries Commission, who helped in the collection of salmon, is gratefully acknowledged. 相似文献

The time course of endogenous phosphorylation in vitro of total or separted synaptic plasma membrane proteins (SPM) has been correlated with that of hydrolysis of the phosphate donor (ATP) in the incubation medium. The ATP/SPM ratio in the medium was varied. In a low-ratio medium (7.5 M ATP; 2.2 g SPM/l) a complete hydrolysis of ATP occurred almost instantaneously as was measured by the release of free phosphate in and the disappearance of ATP from the medium. As a consequence, only a very short peak of phosphorylation, followed by dephosphorylation was observed. However, when higher ATP/SPM ratios were used (200 M ATP; 0.4 g SPM/l and 500 M ATP; 0.4 g SPM/l), the incorporation of phosphate into SPM proteins was linear for 20 sec, and the maximum level of phosphate incorporation was increased. Similar results were obtained after separation of32P-labeled phosphoproteins by slab gel electrophoresis. However, analysis of the autoradiographs obtained fromone SPM preparation under different ATP/SPM ratios revealed dependence of phosphorylation of individual protein bands on the conditions used. 相似文献

Pseudomonas maltophilia is an uncommon cause of hospital-acquired infection and is resistant to most of the antimicrobial agents used in the treatment of gram-negative infections. Susceptibility of 108 isolates ofP. maltophilia to ceftazidime, aztreonam, defpirome, gentamicin, imipenem, enoxacin, and ticarcillin plus clavulanic acid was determined by an agar dilution method. The isolates were in general resistant to the antibiotics. Imipenem and cefpirome were not active at clinically achievable levels. Of the isolates, 20% were susceptible to 16 g/ml ceftazidime, 53% were susceptible to 4 g/ml enoxacin, 10% were susceptible to 4 g/ml gentamicin, and 25% were susceptible to 64 g/ml ticarcillin plus 2 g/ml clavulanic acid. 相似文献

Callus was initiated from immature leaf and stem segments of rose (Rosa hybrida cv. Landora) and subcultured every four weeks on a basal medium of half-strength Murashige & Skoog (1962) salts plus 30 g l-1 sucrose (1/2 MS) and supplemented with 2.2 M BA, 5.4 M NAA and 2.2–9.0 M 2,4-D. Embryogenic callus and subsequently somatic embryos were obtained from 8-week-old callus culture on 1/2 MS+2.2 M BA+0.05 M NAA+0.3 M GA3+200–800 mg l-1 L-proline. Long-term cultures were established and maintained for up to 16 months by repeated subculture of embryogenic callus on L-proline deficient medium.

Axillary shoot induction and plant regeneration were obtained in Plantago ovata. The optimum medium for inducing axillary shoots was Murashige & Skoog (MS) medium [5] supplemented with 4.6 M kinetin and 0.05 M NAA. Rooting of shoots was best on half-strength MS medium containing 5.0 M IBA and 0.05 M kinetin. The regenerated plants were similar to the control plants in karyotypic and phenotypic details. 相似文献

Polyamines and proline are affected by cadmium stress in nodules and roots of soybean plants 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The effect of moderate (50 M) and high (200 M) doses of Cd were studied in relation to polyamine (Pas) metabolism, proline level and the glutamine synthetase/glutamate synthase system (GS/GOGAT) activity in nodules and roots of soybean plants during 6 days of treatment. The lower Cd concentration increased putrescine (Put) in both nodules and roots, while 200 M Cd increased Spm only in nodules and Put in roots. Spermidine (Spd) decreased in roots under both Cd concentrations. Arginine decarboxylase (ADC) and ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) were both involved in Put biosynthesis in roots. In nodules, Put formation could mainly be attributed to ODC activity. Diamine oxidase (DAO) activity was severely reduced by 50 and 200 M Cd either in nodules or roots. The GS/GOGAT system activity was depressed either with 50 or 200 M Cd, but most significantly with the highest metal concentration. Under 200 M Cd, GS activity decayed to 25% or 60% of the control in nodules and roots, respectively, while GOGAT decreased 85% in nodules and 79% in roots by day 4 of treatment. Ammonium increased greatly in nodules (200% over the controls) and roots (100%) under 200 M Cd. Proline concentration increased significantly in nodules and roots under both Cd treatments, more markedly under 200 M Cd. The relationship between Pas and proline accumulation and nitrogen assimilation is discussed. 相似文献

Dedifferentiated and differentiated tissue cultures ofArtemisia annua L. for artemisinin production were carried out. The calluses were initiated on MS medium supplemented with sucrose (30 g l-1), myoinositol (100 mg l-1) and RT vitamins. The auxins used were naphtaleneacetic acid (NAA), indoleacetic acid (IAA), indolebutyric acid (IBA) and 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-d). These were added to the basal medium either singly or in combination. The best results were obtained with 2.4-d (4.5 M : 0.02 d-1) and NAA (5.4 M : 0.06 d-1). Cell suspensions were established on the same media without agar. Suspension cultures showed different morphological characteristics according to the plant growth regulator supplied. Organized cultures were initiated from callus obtained on 2,4-d (4.5 M) and from bud cultures. Medium containing 6-benzylaminepurine (BA) (8.9 M)+NAA (0.54 M); Zeatin (45.62 M)+NAA (5.37 M) or BA (8.9 M) stimulated both organogenesis in callus (frequency of induction =50%) and semi-organized tissue in shoot buds. BA (13.32 M)+NAA (1.08 M) or BA (13.32 M) only stimulated multiple shoot cultures (frequency of induction =80%). Regarding artemisinin content, while the values obtained were 1.13 and 0.78 mg gDW-1 in primary callus, artemisinin was not detected in cell suspension and only traces of it were found in multiple shoot cultures. 相似文献
