以转拟南芥AtNPR1基因的恢复系品种桂99T3代纯合株系为材料,考查其农艺性状及其抗病性,并比较转基因植株与桂99侵染水稻白叶枯病菌后的农艺性状。结果表明:转基因植株表现出对水稻白叶枯病的抗性显著增强77%以上;穗长、剑叶长、有效穗数、一次枝梗数、每穗实粒数、单株产量和谷粒宽等农艺性状与未转基因桂99无显著差别。在受到水稻白叶枯病菌侵染后,转基因植株的一次枝梗数、每穗粒数、每穗实粒数和单株产量等方面均比对照桂99高出13%～78%。说明AtNPR1基因增强了水稻的抗病能力,从而降低了病害引起的产量损失。转基因植株的恢复力不受影响,稻米品质比桂99更加优良。本工作为转基因水稻抗病育种的研究奠定了基础。     

不同遗传背景下杂交籼稻功能叶与产量构成因素的相关性

为明确水稻功能叶与产量构成因素间的相关性,以不同遗传背景下籼稻的10个不育系和16个恢复系为亲本,按照NCII设计配制两套双列杂交组合,对水稻12个功能叶性状与8个产量性状构成因素进行了相关分析,结果表明：3片功能叶叶长与叶面积、剑叶宽、倒2叶宽等性状之间均存在极显著正相关,功能叶夹角之间也存在极显著正相关,但不同遗传背景对夹角性状与9个形态性状之间的相关性则存在明显差异,在第1套组合中,其相关系数均为负值,且相关均不显著;而第2套组合则相反。8个产量构成因素中,单株穗数与平均穗长、着粒密度、穗实粒数以及穗着粒数之间存在极显著负相关,平均穗长与穗着粒数、结实率与单株产量呈显著或极显著正相关,遗传背景对产量组成上有较大影响,在第1套组合中单株产量主要由结实率、单株穗数以及穗实粒数等性状决定,而在第2套中则主要由穗实粒数和结实率等性状决定。在功能叶与产量构成因素的相关中,叶长、叶面积、剑叶宽、倒2叶宽与着粒密度、穗实粒数以及穗着粒教等3个性状之间存在显著或极显著正相关。12个水稻功能叶性状与8个产量构成因素之间的主成分分析表明,在不同的遗传背景下,产量构成因素均主要受叶面积和叶夹角影响,两种不同遗传背景中其累积贡献率分别为69．8％和84．0％。

Phenotypic plasticity in rice: responses to fertilization and inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi

Aims Changes in the phenotype of crops (phenotypic plasticity) are known to play an important role in determining responses to nutrient availability, with the direction and magnitude of plasticity of individual traits being crucial for grain yields. Our study analysed the direction, magnitude and hierarchy of plastic responses of yield-related traits (i.e. biomass allocation and yield components) of rice (Oryza sativa L.) to nutrient availability. We estimated the effect of inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) on these characteristics of phenotypic plasticity.Methods A field experiment was carried out in northeast China, providing rice with six NPK fertilizer levels with or without inoculation with Glomus mosseae. At maturity, we quantified biomass allocation traits (shoot:root ratio and panicle:shoot ratio) and yield component traits (panicle number per hill, spikelet number per panicle, percentage of filled spikelets and seed weight). We also assessed the direction of change in each trait and the magnitude of trait plasticity.Important findings In non-inoculated plants, we found that biomass allocation and seed-number traits (i.e. panicle number per hill, spikelet number per panicle and percentage of filled spikelets) responded to fertilization in the same direction, increasing with rising fertilization. Panicle formation was the most plastic trait, while seed mass was the least plastic trait. AMF inoculation nullified the relationship between most biomass allocation and seed-number traits (except for that between panicle:shoot ratio and the percentage of filled spikelets) but increased the magnitude of plasticity in biomass allocation traits without altering the hierarchy of traits' plasticity. These results underscore the importance of plasticity of yield-related traits per se, and the impact of AMF on plasticity, for maintaining rice yields under low fertilization regimes.     

15份多花黑麦草优良引进种质的表型变异分析

多花黑麦草(Lolium multiflorum Lam.)是世界栽培牧草中的优良禾本科牧草。为更好地利用多花黑麦草种质资源,本研究对引自国外的15份多花黑麦草种质的15个形态性状和农艺性状进行了变异系数、相关性分析、主成分分析和聚类分析。结果表明:15份材料间存在较大变异,除单株干重外,其余性状在供试材料间均表现出显著性差异,变异系数范围为10.28%~39.15%,变异系数平均值为19.49%,从小到大依次为小穗数小穗长株高分蘖数千粒重花序长倒二叶长小花数茎粗第一节间长倒二叶宽旗叶宽旗叶长单株干重单株鲜重。主成分结果表明,前5个主成分累积贡献率达到84.51%,第1主成分以株高为主要特征;第2主成分以旗叶和倒二叶长、宽为主要特征;第3主成分以花序长和小花数为主要特征;第4主成分以千粒重为主要特征;第5主成分以产草量为主要特征。15份种质材料经基于欧氏距离的UPGMA聚类分析被划分为3大类,类别间存在较显著的差异,其中第2类因其植株高大、叶片宽大的特点,具备选育高产种质的潜力。     

Geographic variation in morphological and reproductive characters of coastal and tableland populations ofBlandfordia grandiflora (Liliaceae)

For tenBlandfordia grandiflora populations spanning about 90% of the species' range, univariate and multivariate analyses on 14 vegetative and reproductive characters separated plants into distinct coastal and tableland groups. Distinguishing characters were number of flowers and leaves, leaf length and width, and inflorescence stalk height and diameter; coastal plants were larger than tableland plants. In a transplant experiment, coastal and tableland plants retained their phenotypic distinctness, indicating that vegetative morphology was genetically determined. Coastal plants exhibited clinal variation with latitude. Compared to tableland plants, coastal plants had higher pollen: ovule ratios, and produced fewer but heavier seeds per flower. Tableland and coastal plants are phenotypically distinct, indicating that separate subspecific status is warranted.     

Characteristics of genetic variation in the progenies of protoplast-derived plants of rice, Oryza sativa cv Nipponbare

Genetic variation in protoplast-derived rice (Oryza sativa L.) plants was characterized using first and second generation selfed progenies. A total of 133 regenerated plants were obtained from ten protoplasts of the japonica rice cultivar Nipponbare. Sixty two regenerated plants which set enough seeds for the subsequent field tests at the next generation and were derived from five protoplasts were selected, and their selfed seeds were used as the first selfed-seed progeny generation). Fifteen plants were selected from each of the 15 lines, and their selfed seeds were used for tests at the generation. Thirty seven lines (60%) segregated plants with detrimental mutant characters of yellow-green phenotype, dwarf stature, dense and short panicle, or low seed fertility. According to the segregation patterns in the lines having mutated plants among those originated from the same protoplasts, the stages of mutation induction were estimated. Additionally, five quantitative traits were changed in almost all and lines. Varied quantitative traits of heading date, number of spikelets per panicle, and seed fertility, were in a heterozygous state. However, culm and panicle lengths showed high uniformity, whereas reduced culm and panicle lengths were caused by mutational changes in polygenes and/or multiple genes.

高浓度CO2对稻穗不同位置籽粒结实和米质性状的影响

不断升高的大气CO₂浓度影响水稻颖花发育、灌浆结实和品质形成,但这种影响是否与籽粒在稻穗上的着生部位有关尚不清楚.利用稻田FACE (Free-Air CO₂ Enrichment)平台,以优质丰产粳稻‘武运粳23’为材料,CO₂处理设背景CO₂浓度(Ambient)和高CO₂浓度(增200 μmol·mol^-1, FACE)两个水平,研究开放大田条件下高浓度CO₂对水稻颖花密度、籽粒结实能力、稻米外观和食味品质的影响及其与稻穗不同着生位置的关系.结果表明:FACE处理使武运粳23籽粒产量平均增加18.3%,从产量构成因素看,穗数和饱粒重分别增加21.4%、9.4%,每穗颖花数、饱粒率平均减少9.0%、2.2%.FACE水稻饱粒率下降主要与稻穗不同部位空粒率大幅增加有关.FACE水稻每穗颖花数减少主要与稻穗上部、中部二次枝梗现存颖花大幅减少有关,而其他位置颖花数均无显著变化;稻穗不同位置饱粒重和饱粒率对FACE的响应无显著差异.FACE处理使绿粒率下降,但糙米长度和宽度均增加,稻穗不同部位趋势一致.FACE使垩白粒率(增幅59%)、垩白度(增幅55%)均极显著增加,增幅表现为稻穗一次枝梗>二次枝梗、上部>中部>下部.FACE使稻穗不同位置稻米直链淀粉含量略增,使最高粘度、热浆粘度、崩解值、最终粘度和消减值略降,但多未达显著水平.FACE使稻米糊化温度显著下降,弱势粒的降幅大于强势粒.综上,高浓度CO₂环境下武运粳23产量增加主要与穗数增多和籽粒增重有关,而稻穗明显变小;高浓度CO₂使稻米绿粒率减少,垩白增多,而对蒸煮食味品质影响较少;颖花着生位置对高浓度CO₂环境下水稻颖花发育、结实和品质的影响因不同测定指标而异.     

Novel pleiotropic loci controlling panicle architecture across environments in japonica rice （Oryza sativa L.）

To identify quantitative trait loci (QTLs) controlling panicle architecture in japonica rice, a genetic map was constructed based on simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers and 254 recombinant inbred lines (RILs) derived from a cross between cultivars Xiushui 79 and C Bao. Seven panicle traits were investigated under three environments. Single marker analysis indicated that a total of 27 SSR markers were highly associated with panicle traits in all the three environments. Percentage of phenotypic variation explained by single locus varied from 2% to 35%. Based on the mixed linear model, a total of 40 additive QTLs for seven panicle traits were detected by composite interval mapping, explaining 1.2%-35% of phenotypic variation. Among the 9 QTLs with more than 10% of explained phenotypic variation, two QTLs were for the number of primary branches per panicle (NPB), two for panicle length (PL), two for spikelet density (SD), one for the number of secondary branches per panicle (NSB), one for secondary branch distribution density (SBD), and one for the number of spikelets per panicle (NS), respectively. qPLSD-9-1 and qPLSD-9-2 were novel pleiotropic loci, showing effects on PL and SD simultaneously. qPLSD-9-1 explained 34.7% of the phenotypic variation for PL and 25.4% of the phenotypic variation for SD, respec- tively. qPLSD-9-2 explained 34.9% and 24.4% of the phenotypic variation for PL and SD, respectively. The C Bao alleles at the both QTLs showed positive effects on PL, and the Xiushui 79 alleles at the both QTLs showed positive effects on SD. Genetic variation of panicle traits are mainly attributed to additive effects. QTL × environment interactions were not significant for additive QTLs and additive × additive QTL pairs.

Stable transformation of barley callus using biolistic® particle bombardment and the phosphinothricin acetyltransferase (bar) gene

We have previously studied chromosomal and morphological variation in protoplast cultures of diploid petunia (Petunia hybrida) plants. We found that 85% of the regenerants were tetraploid (2n=4x=28). These plants flowered and set seeds.In the present study, the cytological stability of plants regenerated from leaf mesophyll protoplast cultures derived from the progeny of the self-fertile tetraploid plants was assessed on the basis of mitotic analysis, morphological characters, and protein patterns. When we analyzed the root tip chromosomes of 117 regenerants derived from 39 protoclone calluses, all of the regenerants tested retained the parental chromosome number of 2n=4x=28. One hundred regenerants were further analyzed and displayed normal vegetative morphology and retained the floral characteristics of the seed-derived plants from which they were derived. No significant variations in any character were observed among regenerants. When leaf protein patterns from four regenerated tetraploid protoclones were analyzed by two-dimensional polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and compared with those of seed-derived plants, the protein patterns exhibited great similarity.The data suggest that tetraploidization of petunia plant increases cytological stability during further in vitro cultures and may play an important role in the genetic stability of regenerant populations.Abbreviations BA benzylaminopurine - IAA indole-3-acetic acid - IEF isoelectric-focusing - PVP polyvinylpyrrolidone - SDS-PAGE sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis

Panicle Differentiation and Spikelet Number Related to Size of Panicle in Pennisetum americanum

The size of the developing panicle of pearl millet (Pennisetumamericanum (L.) Leeke) was studied during panicle differentiation(from panicle initiation to the completion of spikelet production)in plants grown in pots or in the field and supplied with varyinglevels of nitrogen. The duration of panicle differentiationrequired a constant thermal time (day degrees) under all nitrogensupplies. However, the rate of growth of the developing panicleduring this phase was retarded by low nitrogen supply. Duringpanicle differentiation, it appeared that the developing paniclehad to reach a critical size before developmental events suchas the initiation of spikelet primordia commenced; timing ofdevelopmental events was related to the size of the developingpanicle. The number of spikelets produced depended on the rate of growthof the differentiating panicle and the duration of the phaseof spikelet initiation (from appearance of the first spikeletprimordium to completion of spikelet differentiation). Low nitrogensupply reduced the number of spikelets produced, by retardingthe rate of growth of the differentiating panicle; this delayedthe time to initiation of spikelets and thereby reduced theduration of spikelet initiation. All spikelets (irrespectiveof nitrogen supply on the mainstem and on tillers) occupiedthe same area of panicle surface at the completion of differentiationof the panicle and at anthesis. Key words: Millet, Panicle differentiation, Spikelet number     

Field performance and cytology of protoplast-derived rice (Oryza sativa): high yield and low degree of variation of four japonica cultivars

Summary Protoplast-derived rice plants of four Japanese cultivars, Nipponbare, Fujisaka 5, Norin 14 and Iwaimochi were individually cultivated in a submerged paddy field. They exhibited more stems, which resulted in more panicles than respective control plants. Other characteristics of protoplast-derived plants were (compared with controls): a slightly shorter or similar culm length, fewer spikelets per panicle, slightly lower seed fertility and similar or lighter 1,000 kernel weight. Grain yield of protoplast-derived plants was more than that of respective control plants in four cultivars. The cause of the higher yield of protoplast-derived plants seems to be mainly due to increased panicle number. Among 126 protoplast-derived plants, 1 triploid, 10 tetraploids and 1 aneuploid were found. Furthermore, 11 variants with low seed fertility showing no gross chromosomal anomalies and one plant with abnormal panicles were found. In total, about 80% of protoplastderived plants showed normal characters. The present results are encouraging for the possibility of rice breeding using protoplasts.This paper is dedicated to Professor Emeritus Dr. Shigeyasu Akai on the occasion of his 77th birthday (Kijyu: one of the celebrated ages in Japan)

Long term exogenous putrescine application improves grain yield of a salt-sensitive rice cultivar exposed to NaCl

In order to determine the impact of polyamines on the yield-related parameters of rice (Oryza sativa L.) exposed to NaCl, the plants belonging to a salt-sensitive cultivar I Kong Pao were maintained from the young seedling stage until harvest on nutrient solutions containing 0 or 30 mM NaCl in the presence or absence of 10 μM putrescine (Put), 10 μM spermidine (Spd) or 10 μM spermine (Spm). Exogenous Put and to a lesser extent exogenous Spd improved growth and yield of salt-treated plants in relation to an increase in K⁺/Na⁺ ratio of shoots and roots as compared to plants exposed to NaCl in the absence of exogenous polyamines. Exogenous Put also improved the net CO₂ assimilation, at least partly as a consequence of an increase in the stomatal conductance. Yield increase of salt-treated plants exposed to Put was related to an improvement of floral morphogenesis leading to a higher number of fertile tillers per plant and a higher number of spikelets per panicle. Putrescine also improved the pollen viability in salt-treated plants, allowing a higher seed set and thus a higher grain yield per plant. Although polyamines accumulated in the shoots to some extent in response to exogenous application, neither Put nor Spd accumulated in the seeds. In contrast, Spm did not afford any protection of salt-treated plants but was translocated to the seeds during maturation. Seeds with a high internal Spm concentration exhibited delayed germination in the presence of NaCl. These data are discussed in relation to the implication of polyamine in the metabolism and physiology of salt-treated plants.

Field performance of transgenic tall fescue (<Emphasis Type="Italic">Festuca arundinacea</Emphasis> Schreb.) plants and their progenies

Tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.) is a hexaploid, outcrossing grass species widely used for forage and turf purposes. Transgenic tall fescue plants were generated by biolistic transformation of embryogenic cell suspension cultures that were derived from single genotypes of widely used cultivar Kentucky-31. Primary transgenics from two genotypes, their corresponding regenerants from the same genotypes and control seed-derived plants were transferred to the field and evaluated for 2 years. Progenies of these three classes of plants were obtained and evaluated together with seed-derived plants in a second field experiment. The agronomic characteristics evaluated were: heading date, anthesis date, height, growth habit, number of reproductive tillers, seed yield and biomass. The agronomic performance of the primary transgenics and regenerants was generally inferior to that of the seed-derived plants, with primary transgenics having fewer tillers and a lower seed yield. However, no major differences between the progenies of transgenics and the progenies of seed-derived plants were found for the agronomic traits evaluated. Primary transgenics and regenerants from the same genotype were more uniform than plants from seeds. Progenies of transgenics performed similarly to progenies of the regenerants. The addition of a selectable marker gene in the plant genome seems to have had little effect on the agronomic performance of the regenerated plants. No indication of weediness of the transgenic tall fescue plants was observed. Our results indicate that outcrossing grass plants generated through transgenic approaches can be incorporated into forage breeding programs.
