Arsenic uptake and accumulation in rice (Oryza sativa L.) irrigated with contaminated water

Long-term use of arsenic contaminated groundwater to irrigate crops, especially paddy rice (Oryza sativaL.) has resulted in elevated soil arsenic levels in Bangladesh. There is, therefore, concern regarding accumulation of arsenic in rice grown on these soils. A greenhouse pot experiment was conducted to evaluate the impact of arsenic-contaminated irrigation water on the growth and uptake of arsenic into rice grain, husk, straw and root. There were altogether 10 treatments which were a combination of five arsenate irrigation water concentrations (0–8 mg As l^–1) and two soil phosphate amendments. Use of arsenate containing irrigation water reduced plant height, decreased rice yield and affected development of root growth. Arsenic concentrations in all plant parts increased with increasing arsenate concentration in irrigation water. However, arsenic concentration in rice grain did not exceed the maximum permissible limit of 1.0 mg As kg^–1. Arsenic accumulation in rice straw at very high levels indicates that feeding cattle with such contaminated straw could be a direct threat for their health and also, indirectly, to human health via presumably contaminated bovine meat and milk. Phosphate application neither showed any significant difference in plant growth and development, nor in As concentrations in plant parts.     

Plant regeneration from protoplasts of indica rice: genotypic differences in culture response

Summary Fourteen varieties of indica rice (Oryza saliva L.) were examined for their capacity for plant regeneration from protoplasts using the nurse culture methods developed for japonica rice. Calli induced from germinating seeds were grouped into two types: type I, white and compact; type II, yellow and friable. In four varieties producing type II callus, colony formation (2%–4.5%) and plant regeneration (2%–35%) were observed. The inability to develop suspension cultures was a major obstacle in regenerating plants from protoplasts of the remaining rice varieties studied.     

Full-genome analysis of resistance gene homologues in rice

The availability of the rice genome sequence enabled the global characterization of nucleotide-binding site (NBS)–leucine-rich repeat (LRR) genes, the largest class of plant disease resistance genes. The rice genome carries approximately 500 NBS–LRR genes that are very similar to the non-Toll/interleukin-1 receptor homology region (TIR) class (class 2) genes of Arabidopsis but none that are homologous to the TIR class genes. Over 100 of these genes were predicted to be pseudogenes in the rice cultivar Nipponbare, but some of these are functional in other rice lines. Over 80 other NBS-encoding genes were identified that belonged to four different classes, only two of which are present in dicotyledonous plant sequences present in databases. Map positions of the identified genes show that these genes occur in clusters, many of which included members from distantly related groups. Members of phylogenetic subgroups of the class 2 NBS–LRR genes mapped to as many as ten different chromosomes. The patterns of duplication of the NBS–LRR genes indicate that they were duplicated by many independent genetic events that have occurred continuously through the expansion of the NBS–LRR superfamily and the evolution of the modern rice genome. Genetic events, such as inversions, that inhibit the ability of recently duplicated genes to recombine promote the divergence of their sequences by inhibiting concerted evolution.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available for this article at     

芽胞杆菌在防治水稻稻瘟病中的应用及生防机制

芽胞杆菌具有人畜安全、不污染环境、病原菌不易产生抗药性、抗逆性强和促进植物生长等优点,是稻瘟病防治上的重要生防菌。芽胞杆菌的生防机制主要包括竞争作用、拮抗作用和诱导抗病性。芽胞杆菌定殖在水稻植株上,产生抗菌活性物质抑制稻瘟病菌的生长,诱导水稻产生抗病性,对水稻植株具有促生作用,可以挽回水稻产量损失。芽胞杆菌可以制备生防制剂用来防治我国南方稻区和北方稻区的稻瘟病危害,在水稻产业的可持续发展中对稻瘟病的生物防治具有指导意义。本文主要综述芽胞杆菌在防治水稻稻瘟病中的应用研究、芽胞杆菌在防治水稻稻瘟病中的生防机制、影响稻瘟病生防芽胞杆菌防效的因素。     

一个新的水稻小粒矮秆基因的分子标记定位及效应分析

从水稻(Oryza safjva L．)半矮秆品种蜀恢I62中发现一份小粒矮秆突变体“I62d”。对I62d与4个半矮秆品种杂交F1和F2代的遗传分析表明,I62d的矮生性由一对隐性基因控制。以II-32B／162d F2代作定位群体,用分子标记将I62d突变基凶定位丁水稻第3染色体短臂,该基因与微卫星标记RM218和RMI57之间的遗传距离分别为3．5cM和10．0cM。同时,利用近等基因系分析了该基因的表型效应,结果表明它可使株高降为正常高度的1／4左右,籽粒降为正常大小的1／4左右,并使叶片显著缩短、加宽,结实率显著降低。我们认为162d突变基因是一个新的水稻小粒矮秆某因,暂命名为dI62(t）。     

Effects of a mud snail <Emphasis Type="Italic">Cipangopaludina chinensis laeta</Emphasis> (Architaenioglossa: Viviparidae) on the abundance of terrestrial arthropods through rice plant development in a paddy field

The effects of a mud snail, Cipangopaludina chinensis laeta (Martens) (Architaenioglossa: Viviparidae), on terrestrial arthropods through rice plant development in a paddy field were investigated in 2013 and 2014 by a field experiment. There were no significant differences between treatments in the abundance of aquatic organisms, which comprised several functional feeding groups in both years. The presence of mud snails did not significantly affect plant height and soil plant analysis development values, either, except in June 2014, when tiller number and biomass of the rice plants tended to be larger in plots with snails versus those without. Significantly higher abundances of terrestrial organisms, including phytophagous pest insects and other insects, but not natural enemies of the pest insects, occurred in plots with snails. As shown by principal component analysis, the community structure of the terrestrial organisms was significantly different between the two treatments in both years. The results of this study indicate that mud snails play an important role in the paddy field ecosystem, in which they influence the biomass production of rice plants and the abundance of organisms in terrestrial ecosystems through direct and indirect interactions at different trophic levels.     

普通野生稻中增产相关QTL的发掘

普通野生稻(Oryza Rufipogon)是重要的遗传资源,发掘其优良等位基因将对水稻遗传改良产生重要影响。文章从以珍汕97为轮回亲本,普通野生稻为供体的BC2F1群体中选择一个与珍汕97表型明显不同的单株BC2F1-15,经过连续自交获得回交重组自交系BC2F5群体。均匀分布于12条染色体的126个多态性SSR(Simplesequence repeats)标记基因型分析,发现BC2F1-15单株在30%的标记位点为杂合基因型;利用该群体共检测到4个抽穗期、3个株高、4个每穗颖花数、2个千粒重和1个单株产量QTL。在第7染色体RM481-RM2区间,检测到抽穗期、每穗颖花数和产量QTL,野生稻等位基因表现增效作用;其他3个每穗颖花数QTL位点,野生稻等位基因也均具有增效作用。结果表明野生稻携带有增产相关的等位基因,这些有利等位基因无疑是水稻遗传改良可资利用的新资源。     

Contribution of plant photosynthates to dissolved organic carbon in a flooded rice soil

Dissolved organic C (DOC) plays important roles in nutrient cycling and methane production in flooded rice ecosystem. The microcosm experiment was carried out to measure directly the contribution of photosynthates to DOC by using a ¹³C pulse-chase labeling technique. DOC was operationally divided into water-extractable organic C (WEOC) and salt-extractable organic C (SEOC) by successive extraction firstly with deionized water and then with 0.25 M K₂SO₄. Total WEOC increased with plant growth, whereas SEOC concentration did not change significantly over the growing season. About 0.037–0.36% (mean 0.16%) of the assimilated ¹³C was incorporated into WEOC immediately after ¹³CO₂ assimilation (Day 0), but only 0–0.025% (mean 0.01%) was incorporated into SEOC. At the end of the growing season, the ¹³C amounts of WEOC substantially decreased, while those of SEOC slightly increased. The estimated net plant C contribution was 21 mg C plant^–1 to WEOC and 6 mg C plant^–1 to SEOC, corresponding to 33.8% of total WEOC and 20.2% of total SEOC at the end of the growing season, respectively. The results suggest that the incorporation and decomposition of the photosynthesized C occurred rapidly in rice soil which significantly affected the WEOC dynamics, but SEOC appeared to be in equilibrium with the native soil organic matter, receiving less effect from the plant growth.
