基于纳米孔测序技术的柑橘黄龙病检测方法建立

柑橘黄龙病(Huanglongbing)是柑橘生产上最具毁灭性的病害,及时快速地进行早期检测和诊断是防控黄龙病的关键措施之一.本文利用掌上纳米孔测序仪MinION对携带黄龙病菌Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus的DNA样品进行测序,并利用Blast、GraphMap、minimap2以及两种bwa的比对方法将测序结果比对到黄龙病菌基因组上,比对结果均匀的比对到黄龙病菌基因组上,并未发现严重的偏倚现象,验证了其测序结果的可靠性.本技术可弥补因柑橘木虱Diaphorina citri(Kuwayama)虫体过小或损坏难以进行光学识别的不足,并可同时检测虫体是否携带有黄龙病菌,对有黄龙病发生风险但尚未有黄龙病实际发生的柑橘种植区提供实时实地的监控与预警.     

柑橘黄龙病菌内参基因的筛选与评估

【背景】柑橘黄龙病是世界柑橘生产上最具毁灭性的病害之一,主要由候选韧皮部杆菌属亚洲种("Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus",CLas)引起。CLas全基因组测序已经完成,因而该病原菌的基因表达研究和功能验证得以进行。【目的】筛选CLas内参基因并评估其不同侵染时期和在不同品种植物寄主中的表达稳定性。【方法】基于基因功能类别,利用实时荧光定量PCR技术分析23个CLas的候选内参基因相对表达情况(16Sr RNA基因作为参照基因)。结合Ct值标准差和geNorm、NormFinder、RefFinder软件,评价内参基因的表达稳定性。【结果】在感染黄龙病不同时期和不同品种的植物寄主样本中,14对引物表现出较强的特异性和稳定性。内参基因稳定性排名:ftsZgyrArpoB1ftsAsecAgapzapEgmk2rpoDsecYrpoOftsWgmk1recA,根据geNorm配对变异值Vn/n+1选择稳定性最好的ftsZ和gyrA作为内参基因作进一步评估。以ftsZ+gyrA以及16S rRNA基因分别作为内参基因检测柑橘黄龙病菌致病基因LasΔ5313的表达水平,所得的表达模式相同。【结论】柑橘黄龙病菌中涉及DNA复制和细胞分裂功能的管家基因表达较稳定,在CLas的基因表达研究中可选择ftsZ+gyrA的基因组合作为内参。本研究为后续利用实时荧光定量PCR分析CLas基因表达及研究CLas致病机理奠定基础。

园艺矿物油乳剂对亚洲柑橘木虱成虫刺吸行为的影响

目的】亚洲柑橘木虱Diaphorina citri是传播柑橘最重要病害黄龙病(huanglongbing, Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus)的媒介昆虫,树冠喷施园艺矿物油(horticultural mineral oil, HMO)可以减少其在柑橘上的取食和产卵。本研究旨在探索植物组织内残留的园艺矿物油如何影响亚洲柑橘木虱成虫的取食行为。【方法】采用直流型刺吸电位仪(DC-EPG Giga-8)记录亚洲柑橘木虱成虫12 h内在喷施不同浓度(0.25%, 0.5%, 1%和2%, v/v)HMO(nC24)乳剂和清水(对照)时柑橘嫩叶上的刺探和取食行为并转换为波形信号,分析比较各处理的波形参数。【结果】不同浓度HMO乳剂处理显著提高了亚洲柑橘木虱成虫在柑橘叶片上的C波(路径波)持续时间百分比,显著减少了E2波(韧皮部吸食汁液)持续时间百分比,而对D(口针第一次接触韧皮部组织), E1(韧皮部出现唾液分泌) 和G(木质部吸食汁液) 波持续时间百分比没有显著影响。HMO处理组C波的每成虫波形累积时间(WDI)显著长于对照组,而各浓度处理之间没有显著差异,但D波WDI明显短于对照组。随着HMO浓度的增加, E1, E2和G波WDI显著下降,2% HMO处理组E1, E2和G波WDI明显低于其他浓度处理组。HMO乳剂处理明显减少了刺探次数;在HMO处理中,每成虫刺探次数和每成虫各波形次数均显著少于对照组,其中以1%和2% HMO乳剂处理最少。HMO乳剂处理组np波 (非刺探波)、D波、E2波的每成虫单次波形持续时间(WDE)均短于对照组,其中2% HMO乳剂处理后,D, E1和E2波WDE显著短于其他浓度处理和对照。同时,2% HMO乳剂处理推迟了从口器接触叶片到第1次开始刺探的时间和从口器接触叶片到第1次刺探到韧皮部的时间。【结论】结果表明,2% HMO乳剂显著减少亚洲柑橘木虱成虫在柑橘叶片上的取食次数和有效取食时间,同时还缩短了其在韧皮部分泌唾液和吸食汁液时间,因此可推荐矿物油用于柑橘黄龙病和亚洲柑橘木虱的综合防治体系。同时初步推断矿物油的作用机制可能是其进入植物气孔阻止植物挥发性物质的释放,抑制或掩盖柑橘叶片表面的挥发性物质从而减少了亚洲柑橘木虱在寄主上取食。     

亚洲柑橘木虱内生殖系统形态变化规律研究

亚洲柑橘木虱Diaphorina citri Kuwayama是柑橘黄龙病的传播媒介。本文利用Ste REO Discovery V20体视显微镜对亚洲柑橘木虱成虫内生殖系统进行解剖观察,并探索了亚洲柑橘木虱雌雄成虫内生殖系统的形态变化规律。结果表明:雄虫内生殖系统由1对精巢、1对输精管、1个精泵、1个射精管、1对附腺和1个贮精囊组成。雌虫内生殖系统由1对卵巢、1对侧输卵管、1个中输卵管、2个附腺、1个黏腺和1个受精囊组成。交配前期和交配期的雄虫精巢饱满,精巢在交配后期明显萎缩。交配期和交配后期的雄虫贮精囊都明显大于交配前期的贮精囊。雌虫受精囊在交配前期、交配期和交配后期依次增大,交配前期的受精囊呈不饱满状态,交配期和交配后期受精囊呈饱满状态,内有白色精包。交配后期的雌虫卵巢内有大量成熟的橙黄色卵。     

亚洲柑橘木虱和柚喀木虱过冷却点和体液结冰点测定

亚洲柑橘木虱Diaphorina citri Kuwayama和柚喀木虱Cacopsylla citrisuga YangLi均为柑桔上的重要害虫,前者为黄龙病的主要媒介昆虫,后者也已证实为黄龙病菌的携带者。本文对这两种木虱各龄若虫和成虫的过冷却点和体液结冰点进行了测定,结果表明,柑橘木虱过冷却点和冰点均以1龄若虫最低,平均值分别为-26.32℃和-26.22℃;成虫的过冷却点和冰点最高,分别为-19.60℃和-18.71℃;其它虫态过冷却点和冰点由低到高依次为2龄若虫、4龄若虫、5龄若虫、3龄若虫。柚喀木虱过冷却点和冰点也均以1龄若虫最低,平均值分别为-25.30℃和-25.08℃;5龄若虫的过冷却点和冰点最高,平均分别为-19.50℃和-17.69℃;其它虫态过冷却点和冰点由低到高依次为2龄若虫、3龄若虫、4龄若虫、成虫。两种木虱的比较结果表明,各发育阶段的表现不一致,柚喀木虱的3龄若虫和成虫过冷却点显著低于柑桔木虱,而4龄、5龄若虫则显著高于柑桔木虱;3龄若虫体液结冰点也显著低于柑桔木虱,但1龄、4龄却显著高于柑桔木虱。柑桔木虱雌雄成虫的过冷却点和体液结冰点差异不显著。研究结果表明两种木虱的过冷却点、体液结冰点都较低,因而可能具有较强的耐寒能力。     

中国—越南柑桔黄龙病病原16S rDNA片段的序列分析

采集广西、广东和越南的8个柑桔黄龙病样品,利用黄龙病的特异引物OI1/OI2c对其16S rDNA片段进行PCR扩增,将其扩增产物纯化、回收,进行序列测定。利用DNAstar软件、clustalw2软件和MEGA4.0软件进行同源性分析与系统发育分析。结果表明,越南黄龙病株系(Vietnam-0901和Vietnam-0905)与除广西样品GX-1001和广东样品GD-1002外所有亚洲种柑桔黄龙病病原的同源性都很高(97.6%～100.0%),而与非洲种、美洲种和土豆斑马条纹病的同源性相对较低(分别为96.0%/97.7%,94.7%/96.4%和96.2%/97.6%)。表明我国广东、广西和越南发生的HLB病原均属亚洲种,但在亚洲种之间不同地区的黄龙病病原也发生了一定变异,广西样品GX-1001和广东样品GD-1002与其它亚洲种柑桔黄龙病病原的同源性较其它亚洲种株系偏低,但聚类还是归在一个类群,表明相同地域内的黄龙病病原菌还存在一定差异。     

亚洲柑桔木虱若虫在寄主上的转移和扩散研究

黄龙病是世界柑桔产业的一种毁灭性病害,亚洲柑桔木虱Diaphorina citri Kuwayama为黄龙病亚洲种和美洲种的媒介昆虫,其成虫和高龄若虫都能传病。本文研究亚洲柑桔木虱若虫在感染黄龙病及健康寄主上的转移和扩散规律,发现3龄及3龄以上若虫在柑桔植株垂直和水平位置的嫩梢之间转移现象十分明显,但在黄龙病植株上转移速度较健康植株慢,且嫩梢间的转移速度受虫密度的影响,密度越高转移速度越快。在有选择的条件下,水平位置转移过程中若虫更趋向黄龙病植株。此外,在健康寄主上的木虱若虫有明显向植株下部转移的现象,向下部转移的若虫个体数显著高于黄龙病寄主。本文明确了木虱若虫的扩散规律和寄主感染黄龙病对其转移和扩散产生的影响,为柑桔木虱和黄龙病防治提供参考。     

基于28S rDNA部分序列的石磺科系统发育研究

采用PCR技术对采集自中国大陆沿海5地8个群体石磺的28S rDNA部分序列进行扩增。将测序结果与Gen-Bank中的另外3条石磺科贝类的对应序列一起,以小鼠28S rDNA基因序列进行参照,截取D1、D2、D3区域,拼接后进行比对分析。在获得的689bp的序列中,有76个变异位点,28个简约信息位点,A+T平均含量为30.9%,C+G平均含量为69.0%。以分类关系较近的菊花螺科(Siphonaria alternate)为外群,用NJ、MP、ML和贝叶斯法构建分子系统树。4种方法得到的进化树拓扑结构很相似,得到的结果也与沈和定提出的中国大陆沿海石磺科贝类可划分为Peronia、Platevindex、Onchidium、Paraoncidium4个属的观点基本一致。同时,28S rDNA部分序列的系统分析还显示,4个属中Peronia属与Paraoncidium属亲缘关系较近,Platevindex属与Onchidium属关系比较近。     

以23S rDNA一个多变区作为分子标记对致病杆菌属细菌进行分类鉴定

Molecular characterization of Serratia marcescens strains by RFLP and sequencing of PCR-amplified 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer

AIMS: To establish the specific DNA patterns in 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer (IGS) regions from different kinds of Serratia marcescens strains using polymerase chain reaction (PCR), restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequences analysis. METHODS AND RESULTS: Two pairs of primers based on the 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA IGS were applied to amplify the rrn operons of two kinds of S. marcescens strains. About 1500 bp for 16S rDNA and four fragments of different sizes for 16S-23S rDNA IGS were obtained. PCR-amplified fragments were analysed by RFLP and sequence analysis. Two distinct restriction patterns revealing three to five bands between two kinds of strains were detected with each specific enzyme. According to the sequence analysis, two kinds of strains showed approximately 97% sequence homology of 16S rDNA. However, there was much difference in the sequences of IGS between the two kinds of strains. Intercistronic tRNA of strains H3010 and A3 demonstrated an order of tRNA of 5'-16S-tRNA(Ala)-tRNA(Ile)-23S-3', but strain B17 harboured the tRNA of 5'-16S-tRNA(Glu)-tRNA(Ile)-23S-3'. CONCLUSIONS: The method was specific, sensitive and accurate, providing a new technique for differentiating different strains from the same species. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: This paper provided the first molecular characterization of 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA IGS from S. marcescens strains.     

栽培玉米亚种5 S rDNA NTS序列分析及FISH定位方法比较

选取我国7个栽培玉米亚种材料,进行5 S rDNA的非转录间隔区（nontranscribed intergenic spacer,NTS）的序列分析,比较7个亚种材料NTS序列差异并进行聚类分析,探讨其亲缘关系。研究结果表明：7个材料的NTS区GC平均含量为45．67％,核苷酸位点变异位点个数1～15,转换／颠换率为0．83～2．0,特用玉米材料均存在不同程度的缺失;7个材料主要聚为两大类,第一类群中包括甜质、马齿、硬粒、爆裂和蜡质5个亚种材料,第二类群中包括粉质和甜粉2个亚种材料。同时利用荧光原位杂交技术（fluorescence in situ hybridization,FISH）对5 S rDNA进行定位,探针标记分别采用荧光素标记和生物素标记。结果表明：生物素标记检测系统灵敏度高、杂交信号强,更适合于5 S rDNA重复序列的定位检测。     

Sequence Analysis and Comparison of 16S rRNA, 23S rRNA and 16S/23S Intergenic Spacer Region of Greening Bacterium Associated with Yellowing Disease (Huanglongbing) of Kinnow Mandarin

High incidence (up to 40%) of symptoms of yellowing and yellow mottling was observed in 5–8 years old orchards of kinnow mandarin {Citrus reticulate Balanco (‘King’ × ‘Willow mandarin’)} in the Punjab state of India during a survey in January 2007. These symptoms are often confused with nutrient deficiency and other stress related disorders. However, a greening bacterium has been attributed to cause the disease. The disease was graft transmissible and sequencing of 16S rRNA, 16S/23S intergenic spacer region and 23S rRNA of the greening bacterium associated with yellowing disease in kinnow mandarin confirmed it to be Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus (‘Ca L. asiaticus’) showing maximum identity of 95.9% with ‘Ca L. asiaticus’ from USA and Brazil in 16S rRNA. The study indicates definite association of ‘Ca L. asiaticus’ with yellowing/chlorotic mottling symptoms of greening disease of kinnow mandarin in Punjab state of India.     

Phylogenetic Positions and Assignment of Swine and Ovine Corynebacterial Isolates Based on the 16S rDNA Sequence

The nucleotide sequences of the 16S ribosomal RNA gene (rDNA) of swine and ovine corynebacterial strains were determined. The sequences of the strains that identified as Corynebacterium pseudotuberculosis by their biochemical characteristics were homologous with each other. The phylogenetic position of C. pseudotuberculosis strains was closest to C. ulcerans and next closest to C. diphtheriae. The nucleotide sequence of another swine isolate, SC8, was similar to that of a recently proposed species, C. seminale, and a non-validated species, “C. glucuronolyticum,” with about 0.01 to 0.02 evolutionary distances. Analysis of the predicted secondary structure of the 16S rRNA molecule agreed with the close phylogenetic relationships between C. pseudotuberculosis and C. ulcerans and between C. seminale and strain SC8.     

Phylogenetic Analysis of the Genus Bifidobacterium and Related Genera Based on 16S rDNA Sequences

The 16S rRNA gene sequences were determined for type strains of 21 Bifidobacterium species. A phylogenetic tree was constructed using the determined sequences and sequences from DNA databases, which contain the sequences of 11 type strains of Bifidobacterium species and 11 strains of related genera. All species of the genus Bifidobacterium and Gardnerella vaginalis ATCC 14018 belonged to a cluster phylogenetically distinct from the other genera. The cluster was divided into two subclusters: subcluster 1 composed of most species of Bifidobacterium and G. vaginalis, and subcluster 2 consisting of two species, B. denticolens and B. inopinatum; both of which were isolated from human dental caries. In the genus Bifidobacterium, four groups of species are known to be moderately to highly related by DNA-DNA hybridization. The four groups of species exhibited more than 99% similarity among their 16S rDNA sequences within each group. These results indicated that species with around 99% or more similarity in their 16S rDNA sequences should be confirmed for species identities.     

PCR amplification of species specific sequences of 16S rDNA and 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region for identification of Streptococcus phocae

Streptococcus phocae, a bacterial pathogen of seals, could reliably be identified by PCR amplification using oligonucleotide primers designed according to species specific segments of the previously sequenced 16S rRNA gene and the 16S-23S rDNA intergenic spacer region of this species. The PCR mediated assay allowed an identification of S. phocae isolated from harbor and gray seals and from Atlantic salmons. No cross-reaction could be observed with 13 different other streptococcal species and subspecies and with Lactococcus garvieae strains investigated for control purposes.
