光强对黄檗幼苗三种生物碱含量的影响

设置光强分别为全光照的100%(不遮荫)、75%、50%和25%的4种光照处理,比较了不同光强下1年生黄檗幼苗主要药用成分小檗碱、药根碱和掌叶防己碱含量的变化.结果表明,全光照有利于小檗碱、药根碱和掌叶防己碱在茎外皮和根中的合成和积累,总体上随光强减弱,3种生物碱含量降低.相对光强为75%时黄檗幼苗生物量最大,而75%相对光强下黄檗幼苗3种生物碱的单株产量(生物碱含量与生物量之积)最高.     

滤光膜对黄檗(Phellodendron amuranse)幼苗三种生物碱含量的影响

以滤光膜遮光处理1年生黄檗(Phellodendron amuranse)幼苗,测定了幼苗生物量及根、茎外皮中的小檗碱、药根碱和掌叶防己碱含量.红色、黄色、蓝色和绿色滤光膜对黄檗幼苗的根和茎生物量都有不同程度的抑制作用,其中黄膜的抑制作用最小,而蓝膜和绿膜的抑制作用最强.滤光膜处理也不同程度地抑制了小檗碱、药根碱和掌叶防己碱的合成和积累,红膜的抑制作用最小,蓝膜和绿膜的抑制作用最强.滤光膜处理后,3种生物碱的单株产量都低于对照,红膜处理小檗碱的产量显著高于黄膜处理,但红膜和黄膜处理下的药根碱和掌叶防己碱的产量差异不显著,蓝膜和绿膜处理的3种生物碱的产量都始终最低.滤光膜处理不利于黄檗幼苗的生长和上述3种生物碱的积累.     

氮素形态对黄檗幼苗三种生物碱含量的影响

通过改变水培溶液中NH 4-N和NO3--N的比例,探讨了氮素形态对黄檗幼苗主要药用成分小檗碱、药根碱及掌叶防己碱含量的影响。结果表明,小檗碱的含量与氮素形态有明显关系,在根和茎中都表现为NO3--N比例高更有利于小檗碱的积累。单纯的NO3--N供给最有利于药根碱在黄檗幼苗根中的积累,而处理46d后,NH4 -N/NO3--N为75/25和25/75时黄檗幼苗茎中的药根碱含量最高。黄檗幼苗根和茎中的掌叶防己碱含量对营养液中NH4 -N和NO3--N的比例反应类似,在处理46d后,掌叶防己碱含量由高到低所对应的NH4 -N/NO-3-N为25/75、50/50、75/25、0/100、100/0。处理33d后,黄檗幼苗根中的小檗碱、药根碱、掌叶防己碱含量随处理天数的增加呈下降趋势,而在茎中呈上升趋势。如果同时考虑氮素形态对黄檗幼苗生物量的影响,那么NH4 -N/NO3--N为0/100时其小檗碱产量(含量与生物量乘积)最高,而NH4 -N/NO-3-N为25/75时药根碱和掌叶防已碱的产量最高。     

不同植被地区天然黄檗生物碱含量对季节的响应

黄檗(Phellodendron amurense Rupr.)不仅为中国特有的濒危植物,还是我国著名中药材"关黄柏"的药源植物,由于其珍贵的药用价值而被过度开采。本研究采用HPLC检测不同植被地区天然黄檗种群中药根碱、掌叶防己碱和小檗碱等生物碱的含量,分析不同部位,不同季节对生物碱分布的影响。研究表明,药根碱在黄檗各部位的分布为:根皮茎皮多年生枝一年生枝叶片。掌叶防己碱含量分布为:茎皮多年生枝皮根皮一年生枝叶片。小檗碱在不同部位的分布规律表现为:根皮茎皮多年生枝一年生枝叶片。根皮和茎皮中的药根碱含量随着春、夏、秋季节的推移呈逐渐上升的趋势,表现为秋季夏季春季,而多年生枝皮、一年生枝、叶片中的药根碱则是秋季春季夏季。各部位的掌叶防己碱均随着季节推移而升高,表现为秋季夏季春季。根皮、茎皮和多年生枝皮中小檗碱含量随着季节变化表现为夏季秋季春季。一年生枝中小檗碱在夏季降低,而到了秋季再升高。     

水分胁迫对黄檗幼苗保护酶活性及脂质过氧化作用的影响

以轻度干旱、重度干旱和水涝处理黄檗幼苗,测定丙二醛(MDA)和游离脯氨酸含量及超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性的动态变化.结果表明,处理40 d以后,轻度干旱、重度干旱和水涝处理的叶片MDA含量始终显著高于对照,最高分别达对照的2.9、2.37和4.12倍,三者之间在处理80 d以后MDA含量差异不显著.水涝处理和对照的游离脯氨酸含量在处理期间没有明显变化,干旱处理的游离脯氨酸含量从处理后40 d开始增加、80 d后回落,重度干旱处理的增加幅度显著大于轻度干旱处理.SOD、POD和CAT活性的变化趋势缺乏一致性,但重度干旱处理的黄檗幼苗,叶片的SOD、POD和CAT活性在处理期间始终显著高于轻度干旱、水涝处理和对照.     

季节和地理差异对天然黄檗小檗碱和药根碱含量的影响

用高效液相色谱法测定了黄檗根皮、茎皮、多年生枝皮、1年生枝和叶片中小檗碱和药根碱的含量,研究黄檗不同部位两种生物碱的季节和地理差异。结果表明:不同季节,天然黄檗各部位的小檗碱、药根碱含量均表现为:根皮茎皮多年生枝皮1年生枝叶片。小檗碱含量随着季节变化在各部位呈现夏季升高,到秋季下降的趋势。而药根碱在不同部位中的含量随着季节变化的规律不同。根皮、茎皮中的药根碱含量随着季节推移逐渐增多,在夏季升高不明显,而到秋季大量积累。多年生枝皮、1年生枝、叶片中的药根碱在3个季节表现则为先降后升。从纬度水平上看,不同地域间黄檗各部位的生物碱差异显著,在调查的40°—50°N范围内,黄檗两种生物碱的含量普遍在纬度低的地区较高,随着纬度增大先逐渐降低,到N44°左右达到最低值,到了高纬度地区略有回升。     

一测多评法测定不同产地黄柏炭中4种生物碱含量

为建立同时测定不同产地黄柏炭中4种生物碱成分(黄柏碱、木兰花碱、小檗红碱、小檗碱)的一测多评法。实验以小檗碱为内参物,基于HPLC法建立小檗碱与其它成分的相对校正因子,并用校正因子计算4种成分的含量;用外标法和一测多评法同时测定30批黄柏炭样品的含量。结果表明30批黄柏炭样品的外标法与一测多评法结果之间无明显差异,说明了一测多评法的准确性和可行性。因此在缺乏对照品的情况下,以小檗碱为内参物同时测定黄柏碱、木兰花碱、小檗红碱的含量是可行的。该方法准确性和重复性良好,可用于黄柏炭的质量控制。

以日光为对照,采用红色、黄色、蓝色和绿色4种滤光膜遮光处理温室栽培的黄檗幼苗100 d,测定了不同光环境下幼苗生物量、叶片叶绿素含量、可溶性蛋白含量、硝酸还原酶（NR）活性及谷氨酰胺合成酶（GS）活性的变化.结果表明,4种滤光膜处理均抑制黄檗幼苗的生长,黄檗幼苗的全株生物量与日光下的差异均达到显著水平(P＜0.05).4种滤光膜对黄檗幼苗株高、茎径的影响与对全株生物量的影响相似;红膜和黄膜处理对黄檗幼苗根冠比影响不明显,蓝膜和绿膜处理明显抑制地下部分的生长（P＜0.05）;蓝膜、绿膜和红膜遮光的黄檗幼苗叶片叶绿素含量显著高于日光下的黄檗幼苗（P＜0.05）,以蓝膜处理最为突出;红膜处理增加了叶绿素a的比例,而蓝膜处理则使叶绿素a比例减少.经滤光膜遮光处理的黄檗幼苗可溶性蛋白含量均显著高于对照,且叶片NR和GS活性也显著高于日光下对照.     

水分胁迫下发草(Deschampsia caespitosa)叶片脯氨酸及其代谢产物变化

以发草(Deschampsia caespitosa)为供试材料,通过盆栽模拟水分胁迫,研究重度干旱、中度干旱、轻度干旱、植物正常需水量(对照)、轻度水涝、中度水涝、重度水涝处理下发草叶片脯氨酸(Pro)积累状况及其代谢途径中底物、中间产物和关键酶的动态变化,以期从脯氨酸代谢途径对发草抗旱/涝机理进行初步探讨。结果显示,干旱和水涝胁迫前期发草叶片Pro含量显著升高,谷氨酸(Glu)和鸟氨酸(Orn)含量显著下降,Δ¹-吡咯琳-5-羧酸合成酶(P5CS)活性、鸟氨酸转氨酶(δ-OAT)活性、Δ¹-吡咯琳-5-羧酸还原酶(P5CR)活性均显著增强,而脯氨酸脱氢酶(ProDH)活性显著降低,表明干旱和水涝胁迫前期发草叶片通过脯氨酸合成代谢的加强和分解代谢的抑制共同积累脯氨酸,以缓解干旱和水涝胁迫产生的危害,Glu途径和Orn途径协同作用于叶片脯氨酸合成代谢过程。中度、轻度干旱和轻度水涝处理21 d后Pro含量趋于稳定,持续21 d的重度干旱处理和持续28 d的重度水涝处理时发草死亡,共同显示了发草对水涝和干旱具有较强的耐受性。结论为高寒沼泽湿地旱涝"共耐性"植物的研究提供理论基础,同时为利用发草开展退化高寒沼泽湿地植被恢复提供科学依据。     

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.
