问题解答

问:怎样理解"子叶以下的胚轴"?答:初中《植物学》第26页,以大豆和豌豆为例说明双子叶植物的种子在萌发时,有的种子的子叶出土,有的种子的子叶则不出土,常以"子叶以下的胚轴"不伸长为由.胚轴位于胚根和胚芽之间,同时与子叶相连,从子叶着生点至第一片真叶的一段称上胚轴,从子叶着生点至根的一段称下胚轴.书上说的"子叶以下的胚轴"就是指的下胚轴.但是,我们认为:"子叶以下的胚轴"的提法不妥,它容易使人混淆概念,以为胚轴完全处于子叶     

种子萌发出苗过程中胚轴的伸长和胚根的发展

在讲种子的萌发时,对胚各部分的发展变化,曾听到过如下的解释:胚轴发育成植物的主茎,胚根发展成植物的根系.这样说是否确切呢?下面谈谈与此有关的问题. 一株植物的主茎是否完全由胚轴发育而成的问题,了解了胚轴伸长的情况,就很容易得到答案.大家知道,双子叶植物种子胚中的胚轴以子叶为界可区分为两部分:子叶以下与胚根连接的部分叫下胚轴,从子叶着生位置以上至第一真叶着生处之间的部分叫上胚轴.单子叶植物常见的禾本科种子胚的胚轴则可区分为下胚轴(子叶即盾状体着生处以下与胚根连接的部分)、中胚轴(盾状体着生处以上至胚芽鞘着     

活性染料诱导原生质体凝集的效应（简报）

四种活性染料对绿豆下胚轴、向日葵子叶及下胚轴等三种来源原生质体的凝集效应是;酚番红花红>甲基蓝>中性红>伊文斯蓝。绿豆下胚轴原生质体凝集率明显高于向日葵下胚轴并易形成多聚体。向日葵下胚轴原生质体凝集率又明显高于子叶。酚番红花红、中性红除了可作为原生质体活力指示剂外,还可作为凝集诱导剂和标记物。应用酚番红花红观察到绿豆和向日葵异源原生质体的凝集。

发育和早萌中花生胚胚轴与子叶内BAPAase活性的差异

花生胚发育过程中,子叶和胚轴中都出现BAPAase活性。花生种子萌发时,子叶和胚轴中的BAPAase活性迅速上升,子叶中无新的BAPAase合成,胚轴中能重新合成BAPAase。ABA抑制了子叶和胚轴中BAPAase的活性,抑制胚轴中BAPAase活性所需的外源ABA浓度更高,Act-D和CHM不能逆转ABA对BAPAase活性的抑制作用。     

甘蓝型油菜下胚轴和带柄子叶再生体系研究

以甘蓝型油菜野油19号的下胚轴和带柄子叶为外植体,研究其下胚轴和带柄子叶在不同浓度激素配比下的分化率及再生频率的变化。该品系的油菜下胚轴和带柄子叶在1.5 mg/L的2,4-D中预培养4 d后,转入分化培养基中,其愈伤组织形成早,发生快,再生频率和分化频率均较高。其中,下胚轴转入MS+3 mg/L 6-BA+0.1 mg/L NAA培养基中的分化率和再生频率最高,再生频率达到86.67%;带柄子叶外植体的再生频率要比下胚轴的再生频率低,在MS+4 mg/L 6-BA+0.3 mg/L NAA的分化培养基中芽的再生频率为46.67%。本研究初步建立了甘蓝型油菜野油19号的高频率再生体系。     

绿豆幼苗上胚轴伸长生长与细胞渗透势的相关性

在水分供应正常的情况下,切除1/4～1/2的绿豆子叶对上胚轴生长没有明显的抑制作用,但是经0.2M甘露醇处理的幼苗却随着切除的子叶量的增加,上胚轴的生长呈直线剧减,全部切除子叶的幼苗生长几乎完全停止。子叶在水分胁迫状况下对生长的这种作用与它在上胚轴生长区渗透调节中的作用密切相关。幼苗上胚轴的生长与细胞的有效渗透势之间的相关系数为-0.76,有较高的相关性,但是生长与细胞的总渗透势无相关性(相关系数为-0.29)。细胞的渗透势与细胞液中的糖、游离氨基酸和钾离子浓度之间有很高的相关性。表明水分胁迫下生长所需的低渗透势的维持依赖于来自子叶的渗透物质。     

胚轴—有胚植物的一种特殊结构

在研究有胚植物营养体时,人们常注重根、茎和叶三类器官,而较少注意胚轴。实际上,胚轴不仅在胚、幼苗和成株中均有独特作用,而且在其生长习性和结构上也较特殊。在胚中,圆轴状的胚轴连接着胚根、胚芽、子叶和禾本科植物的胚芽鞘,并因此而可以分为上胚轴（子叶节或胚芽鞘节至胚芽的一段）,下胚轴（子叶节或禾本科的盾片节至胚根的一段）和中胚轴（禾本科植物盾片节至胚芽鞘节的一段）。在绝大多数植物的成株中,主茎的第一个节间是由上胚轴发育形成的,极少数植物甚至终生以胚轴为其主体。如世界著名的奇异植物百岁兰,除下胚轴伸长将…     

马铃薯实生苗子叶及下胚轴原生质体培养研究

在体兔心左室肌缺血中心区与边缘区跨膜电位的比较

实验在30只兔身上进行。利用浮置微电极技术,在心脏的缺血中心区、边缘区和非缺血区共记录了630个细胞的动作电位,其中270个细胞在阻断冠脉条件下进行记录,360个细胞在冠脉灌流条件下,造成心肌不同程度缺血后进行记录。同时,用棉线电极记录了各区心外膜电图ST段的变化。 阻断冠脉引起静息电位(RP)减小、动作电位振幅(APA)和零期最大除极速度(dv/dt)明显降低以及复极50％时程(APD_(50))和衰极90％时程(APD_(90))的显著缩短。缺血边缘区上述各指标的变化与ST 段抬高的程度均显著轻于缺血中心区。改变冠脉灌流血量造成心肌不同程度缺血的结果表明,当灌流血量为 50％时,在中心区所记录的静息电位和动作电位均与阻断冠脉后的边缘区相似;而灌流量为 0％时,在同一区所记录的静息电位和动作电位则与阻断冠脉后的中心区相似。另外,0％ 灌流时的ST 段抬高程度也显著高于灌流量为50％时的表现。这些结果提示,在兔急性心肌缺血早期,从缺血中心区和边缘区可记录到各具特征的动作电位,似有助于说明在缺血区有边缘区的存在。     

Temporal deposition of incremental and discontinuous zones in the otoliths of Oreochromis niloticus (L.)

Ultrathin sections of otoliths were prepared and studied with the transmission electron microscope. The discontinuous zone starts to grow at night, 3 h before light-on, and is completed a few hours after light-on. The growth of the incremental zone follows immediately afterwards and continues approximately until light-off. There is little material deposited onto the otolith at night before the start of discontinuous zone deposition.     

A hybrid zone revisited: molecular and morphological analysis of the maintenance, movement, and evolution of a Great Plains avian (Cardinalidae: Pheucticus) hybrid zone

Black-headed grosbeaks ( Pheucticus melanocephalus ) and rose-breasted grosbeaks ( Pheucticus ludovicianus ) are passerine bird species known to hybridize in the Great Plains of North America. Both extrinsic (environmental) and intrinsic factors (pre- and postzygotic reproductive isolation) have been credited for the generation and maintenance of the grosbeak hybrid zone, but little is known about the genetic characteristics of this hybrid zone. To investigate the stability and extent of the grosbeak hybrid zone, we constructed clines from both molecular sequence data (mtDNA, three autosomal intron loci, and one Z-linked locus) and morphological data (morphometric analyses and hybrid index scores) to determined zone centre and width. Hybrid zone centre and width were also determined for samples collected across the zone 40 years ago from morphological data. The present and past clines were compared and provided support for stability in hybrid zone location and width, and the evolutionary implications of this are discussed. Three models of hybrid zone maintenance were investigated to consider the influence of intrinsic and extrinsic factors on this zone. Our results suggest low hybrid frequencies, a stable zone location and narrow width, and reduced hybrid fitness over the past 40 years best categorize the grosbeak hybrid zone as a tension zone.     

Molecular patterns of introgression in a classic hybrid zone between the Australian tree frogs,Litoria ewingii and L. paraewingi: evidence of a tension zone

Hybrid zones provide a rare opportunity to explore the processes involved in reproductive isolation and speciation. The southern hybrid zone between the southeastern Australian tree frogs Litoria ewingii and L. paraewingi has been comprehensively studied over the last 40 years, primarily using reproductive compatibility experiments and male advertisement calls. We used mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and eight nuclear microsatellite markers to characterize this hybrid zone along a historically studied transect and to test various dispersal‐dependent and dispersal‐independent hybrid zone models. The species are genetically distinct and the level of hybridization within the contact zone is low, with the majority of admixed individuals representing later‐generation hybrids. Based on previous experimental genetic compatibility studies, we predicted that hybrids with L. paraewingi mtDNA would be more frequent than hybrids with L. ewingii mtDNA. Surprisingly, a greater proportion of the identified hybrids had L. ewingii mtDNA. Geographical cline analyses showed a sharp transition in allele frequencies across the transect, and both the mtDNA and microsatellite data showed concordant cline centres, but were best supported by a model that allowed width to vary. Overall, the L. ewingii–L. paraewingi hybrid zone is best characterized as a tension zone, due to the narrow cline width, concordant genetic clines and low levels of hybridization.     

生长素类化合物及6－苯甲基腺嘌呤对拟南芥主根生长的抑制效应比较

Premating barriers to gene exchange and their implications for the structure of a mosaic hybrid zone between Chorthippus brunneus and C. jacobsi (Orthoptera: Acrididae)

Many hybrid zones contain a deficit of hybrid genotypes relative to expectations from tension zone models. This is often associated with separation of parental genotypes into distinct habitats (mosaicism), but sometimes parentals can be found co-occuring in the same local population (bimodality). In both cases, prezygotic isolation may play an important role in determining the genotypic composition of the zone. Chorthippus brunneus and C. jacobsi (Orthoptera: Acrididae) meet and form a complex hybrid zone in northern Spain. Analysis of stridulatory peg numbers reveals partial spatial and seasonal isolation in a 25 km2 area of the zone: C. jacobsi phenotypes predominate in June and July and are present in both valley and mountain habitats; C. brunneus phenotypes predominate in August and are restricted to valley habitats, always in sympatry with C. jacobsi. Strong assortative mating was observed in laboratory mating experiments. Spatial, seasonal and behavioural isolation combine to produce strong premating isolation in the study area. These results suggest a role for premating isolation in maintaining both the mosaic structure and bimodality of this hybrid zone.     

Morphologic development of the adrenal cortex in squirrel monkeys (Saimiri sciureus)

This study describes the morphology of the squirrel monkey (Saimiri sciureus) adrenal gland in the perinatal period. Adrenals of fetal monkeys had a broad central zone of large eosinophilic cells (fetal zone) surrounded by a subcapsular band of small dark cells (definitive zone). Adrenals of stillborn and neonatal monkeys had a reduced fetal zone and an expanded definitive zone that was differentiated into distinct zona fasciculata and zona glomerulosa. By day 18 postpartum, no remnant of the fetal zone remained.

Seasonal fluctuations in macrophyte cover and water transparency of four brown-water lakes: implications for crustacean zooplankton in littoral and pelagic habitats

The dynamics of crustacean zooplankton in the littoral and pelagic zones of four forest lakes having variable water qualities (colour range 130–340 mg Pt l⁻¹, Secchi depth 70–160 cm) were studied. The biomass of zooplankton was higher in the littoral zone than in the pelagic zone only in the lake having the highest transparency. In the three other lakes, biomass was significantly higher in the pelagic zone than in the littoral zone. In the two lakes with highest transparency, the littoral biomass of cladocerans significantly followed the development of macrophyte vegetation, and cladoceran biomass reached the maximum value at the time of highest macrophyte coverage. In lakes with lowest transparency, littoral zooplankton biomass developed independently of macrophyte density and decreased when macrophyte beds were densest. The seasonal development of the littoral copepod biomass did not follow the development of macrophytes in any of the lakes. The mean size of cladocerans in the pelagic zone decreased with increasing Secchi depth of the lake, whereas in the littoral zone no such phenomenon was detected. Seasonally, when water transparency increased temporarily in two of the lakes, the mean size of cladocerans in the pelagic zone decreased steeply. For copepods, no relationship between water transparency and body size was observed. The results suggested that in humic lakes the importance of the littoral zone as a refuge decreases with decreasing transparency of the water and that low water transparency protects cladocerans from fish predation. All the observed between-lake differences could not be explained by fish predation, but were probably attributed to the presence of chaoborid larvae with variable densities. Feeding efficiency of chaoborids is not affected by visibility and thus they can obscure the relationship between water quality, fish density, and the structure of crustacean zooplankton assemblages.
