采用低pH值和适量的玉米素、ABA配合恢复褐化的水稻愈伤组织

在建立水稻体细胞悬浮培养体系的实验中,我们观察到当将胚性愈伤组织从固体培养基转入液体分化培养基进行悬浮培养并去掉2.4-D 时,随着培养时间的延长,愈伤组织往往出现褐化现象。与这种情况类似的是,当将悬浮培养的愈伤组织和成熟胚状体转入固体培养基时,也出现严重的褐化现象。这种褐化现象一般认为是不可逆的,伴随着胚性愈伤组织和成熟胚状体的褐化,胚性愈伤组织逐渐丧失分化能力,成熟胚状体则逐渐死亡。     

枸杞体细胞胚发生中外源Ca2+的作用

脱分化的枸杞叶片外植体愈伤组织转入含有2,4-D的MS培养基上分化培养后有大量胚性细胞的分化和体细胞胚发生;加入一定量的外源Ca2 或45Ca2 ,明显地提高了胚性愈伤组织中体细胞胚发生的频率;加入Ca2 的鳌合剂EGTA则显著降低了体细胞胚发生频率;胚性愈伤组织中CaM的水平在多细胞原胚期和球形胚期显著升高,加入外源Ca2 后CaM含量几乎成倍增加;胚性愈伤组织中蛋白质组分与活性都远远多于或高于非胚性愈伤组织,加Ca2 后蛋白质组分种类也增加.     

枇杷叶片胚性愈伤组织诱导与内源激素含量的关系

为揭示胚性愈伤组织发生过程中内源激素的变化规律,本研究以枇杷叶片为实验材料,通过诱导胚性愈伤组织获得体细胞胚,采用高效液相色谱法测定枇杷叶片及愈伤组织的赤霉素（GA₃）、生长素（IAA）、脱落酸（ABA）和玉米素（ZT）4种内源激素的含量,探讨胚性愈伤组织发育过程中4种内源激素的动态变化。结果显示,不同成熟度叶片内IAA/ZT比值对胚性愈伤组织的发生有正效应,而GA₃/IAA的比值具有负效应。胚性愈伤组织的发生需要较低含量的GA₃及高含量的IAA和ABA,IAA/ZT比值高有利于胚性愈伤组织形成,培养后期及时添加一定量的外源激素有利于胚性保持。本研究可为离体培养时选择外植体、添加外源激素及控制继代时间提供理论指导,并为快速获得枇杷胚性材料、开展基因转化研究奠定基础。     

早熟棉体细胞胚胎发生和植株再生体系的建立

以8个早熟或特早熟棉花为材料,通过不同激素组合(1.0 mg/L IBA+0.5 mg/L KT;0.1 mg/L 2,4-D+0.1 mg/L KT)诱导其愈伤组织,为早熟棉花的遗传转化以及基因功能研究奠定基础.结果表明,2种激素组合均能诱导产生4种主要类型的愈伤组织:淡黄色颗粒状愈伤组织,褐化的愈伤组织,翠绿致密的愈伤组织,疯长型愈伤组织.4种愈伤组织转入增殖培养基中前2种愈伤组织能够分化出胚性愈伤组织,胚性愈伤组织再转到分化培养基上培养能够产生胚状体,即体细胞胚;体细胞胚进一步发育成为再生小苗.用该组织培养再生系统,成功地使晋棉5号、中棉27号和辽棉10号等3个早熟棉品种在5～7个月内通过体细胞胚胎分化获得再生小苗.     

继代时期添加铜对籼稻成熟胚组织培养的影响

以杂交水稻5个优势亲本的成熟胚为材料,研究继代培养添加铜元素对籼稻成熟胚组织培养的影响.结果表明:铜元素能够有效地降低愈伤组织褐化率、提高愈伤组织分化频率;不同品种对同一铜元素浓度或同一品种对不同铜元素浓度反应差异很大.     

箭胡毛杨愈伤组织诱导、保存与再分化

本研究以箭胡毛杨幼叶为外植体,通过对愈伤组织的诱导、保存的再分化的研究,筛选出适宜的培养基和培养条件。外源激素6－BA与IAA的9种配比中,0．5／0．1对箭胡毛杨愈伤组织诱导率可达90％。蔗糖浓度的大小与愈伤组织增长量成正比,与褐变开始时间成反比,当浓度为2％时,继代周期可长达63d。适宜的光照时间可延长愈伤组织保存期并维持良好的组织结构：日光照14h,愈伤组织褐化时间可达到80d;日光照时间少于12h,愈伤组织松散,颜色黄白,褐变开始时间短。经较长时间保存后未褐变愈伤组织的胚状体和丛生苗分化发生时间与分化率不受继代周期影响。当愈伤组织开始褐化后,组织再分化时间延长,分化率大幅度降低。不同继代周期对再生试管苗的生根无影响。     

杉木未成熟胚胚性愈伤组织诱导影响因素探析

该研究从基因型、6-BA浓度、外植体接种方式和合子胚发育阶段等方面,分析杉木未成熟胚胚性愈伤组织诱导的影响因素。结果表明:基因型、6-BA浓度、外植体接种方式和合子胚发育阶段均对胚性愈伤组织诱导频率有不同程度影响。6种基因型中,有3种基因型诱导出胚性愈伤组织,其中基因型S18胚性愈伤组织诱导频率最高,为11.7%。6-BA浓度在1.0~1.5 mg·L~(-1)范围内时,基因型S18的胚性组织诱导频率较高。以在去皮种子的一端切开一个小口的接种方式为最优,将合子胚剥出的方式易造成合子胚褐化死亡,将未剥皮的种子切开一个小口后直接接入培养基的方式不利于愈伤组织生成。适合胚性愈伤组织诱导的合子胚发育阶段为受精至胚器官分化阶段,合子胚进入成熟阶段后不利于胚性愈伤组织诱导,合子胚易生长成完整植株。     

荔枝胚性愈伤组织诱导和离体保存条件的筛选

对影响荔枝(Litchi chinensis Sonn.)胚性愈伤组织诱导的因素(防褐化剂种类、花期、荔枝品种以及外植体取材部位)进行了比较研究,并对其离体保存条件进行了筛选.结果表明,在愈伤组织诱导培养基(含2.0 mg·L-12,4-D、0.5 mg-L-1NAA、30 g·L-1蔗糖和6 g·L-1琼脂的MS培养基,pH 5.8)中添加防褐化剂水解乳蛋白(0.4g·L-1),可使花药胚性愈伤组织的诱导率达到20.51%;以茎段、叶柄和幼叶为外植体,不能诱导出胚性愈伤组织,而采用花药和幼果培养,可诱导出胚性愈伤组织.其中,第1期雄花花药是最适宜的培养材料,胚性愈伤组织的诱导率可达20.11%;荔枝不同品种间幼果的胚性愈伤组织诱导率存在差异,品种‘及第'的诱导率最低.在15℃条件下,将荔枝胚性愈伤组织保存在添加20 g·L-1甘露醇的保存培养基(含1.0 mg·L-1 2,4-D、30 g·L-1蔗糖和6 g·L-1琼脂的MS培养基,pH 5.8)中,保存效果最佳,可将继代时间延至100 d.

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
