山稻蝗不同地域和种群染色体C带核型研究

对我国分布的山稻蝗Oxya agavisa Tsai不同种群进行了染色体C带核型研究,并对山稻蝗武夷山种群染色体C带核型进行了深入探讨,分析了其带型特殊性及该种群与其它山稻蝗种群染色体C带核型的区别与联系。同时通过对山稻蝗与中华稻蝗Oxya chinensis(Thunberg)日本稻蝗Oxya japonica(Thunberg）的形态,分布及染色体C带核型等方面的比较,探讨了该3个种之间的进化关系,认为作稻蝗属中的大型种类,上述3个种之间有着较近的亲缘关系。染色体带型的实验结果表明,中华稻蝗为较原始的种类,而日本稻蝗和山稻蝗则可能是由原始中华稻蝗进化而来,其中日本稻蝗L2染色体的形成是由于原始中华稻蝗该染色体常染色质部分异染色质化的结果,山稻蝗L2染色体则可能是由于原始中华稻蝗该染色体近端部的臂间倒位所致。通过对武夷山山稻蝗的研究,对日本稻蝗和山稻蝗之间的近缘关系进行了分析和讨论。     

五种稻蝗染色体核型和C带带型的比较

本文研究了五种稻蝗Oxya chinensis、O. shanghaiensis、O. adentata、O. hyla intricara、O. agavisa的染色体核型和C带带型.玻片制备采用压片法,BSG法C带处理.结果表明:五种稻蝗染色体核型差异较小,具有属的保守性,但在C带方面则显示出一定的差别,种间染色体带型的差异大小与形态学上的差异程度具明显的正相关.其中小稻蝗和山稻蝗各自具有独特的带型结构,与其余三种显然不同,而中华稻蝗、上海稻蝗、无齿稻蝗虽在主要标志性染色体上带纹趋于一致,但在一些细微结构和统计数据方面存在一定差异.本文对五种稻蝗减数分裂中期Ⅰ的染色体数目和交叉定位也作了统计和比较,在染色体行为分析方面做了初步工作.据此,本文讨论了五种稻蝗的染色体分类问题.

中国稻蝗属细胞分类学研究(英文)

本文对分布于中国境内11省区,27个采集地点的八种稻蝗进行了染色体C带核型比较研究。结果表明:中华稻蝗Oxya chinensis,上海稻蝗O.shanghaiensis,无齿稻蝗O.adentata C带分布型式相似,但染色体分组型式、交叉定位数据以及异染色质含量具有差异;山稻蝗O.agauisa具有本身独特的带纹结构,与本属其它种类迥异;双带稻蝗O.bicingula染色体带型结构相似于山稻蝗及中华稻蝗类群,表明三者在进化历程中有一定联系。小稻蝗O.hyla intricata中一个亲缘种团(Sibling species group),体现在种内的形态差异及染色体带型结构的不同。显示该种近期内分化速率较高。据此,本文讨论了稻蝗属内八个种相互间的亲缘关系和分类地位,本文认为稻蝗属内务物种进化速率是不均衡的,这种状态应归因于各物种的遗传背景和环境因素的影响。     

稻蝗属部分种类RAPD及其分子系统学关系

用经筛选的8个随机引物对稻蝗属(Oxya Audient-Serville)中的中华稻蝗(Oxya chinensis)、日本稻蝗(Oxyajaponica)、山稻蝗(0xya agaxisa)、短翅稻蝗(Oxya brachyptera)和小稻蝗(Oxya intricata)等5个种41个个体进行扩增,均扩增出特异性产物,在96条清晰稳定的扩增片段中,多态性片段为95条,种间共有片段1条(引物S362扩增的约850 bp的片段),所获片段的长度大小为200—2500bP,单个引物扩增的条带数在8-16之间,平均为12。根据扩增结果,应用SPSS软件包中的Between-groups linkage法进行聚类分析,得到5种稻蝗的分子系统树。结果显示：中华稻蝗与短翅稻蝗关系密切,日本稻蝗与山稻蝗关系较近,而小稻蝗与它们的亲缘关系较远。聚类图所呈现的种间关系与传统的形态及细胞分类学结果基本一致,5种稻蝗亲缘关系的远近程度得以清楚显示,说明RAPD技术在稻蝗属种间分子系统学研究中具有很好的适用性。     

稻蝗属三近缘种间的生殖隔离机制及其进化意义

通过对日本稻蝗、中华稻蝗台湾亚种和小翅稻蝗的种间交配、交配后精子传送等的研究,探讨了其生殖隔离机制及其进化意义。结果表明： 有共同分布区域的日本稻蝗与中华稻蝗台湾亚种及日本稻蝗与小翅稻蝗的交配率显著低于种内交配,即使交配也无精子的传送,存在强烈的行为隔离和完全的机械隔离。分布不重叠的中华稻蝗台湾亚种与小翅稻蝗之间,小翅稻蝗的雌虫与中华稻蝗台湾亚种雄虫的交配率显著低于种内交配,反向交配时则和种内交配率无显著差异;正反交配都能完成精子传送,显示出不对称、不完全的行为隔离,而无机械隔离的存在。分布不重叠的中华稻蝗台湾亚种与小翅稻蝗生殖隔离的进化速度慢于分布重叠的日本稻蝗与中华稻蝗台湾亚种及日本稻蝗与小翅稻蝗。

CYTOTAXONOMIC STUDY OF OXYA SPECIES IN CHINA (ORTHOPTERA: ACRIDOIDEA)

Abstract  The chromosomal conventional karyotype and C-banding karyotype of eight species in the genus Oxya (Catantopidae) are analysed. The result shows that O. chinensis (Thunberg), O. shanghaiensis Willemse and O. adentata Willemse all have similar C-banding distribution, but the model of chromosomal group, the chiasma localization data and the total heterochromatin content (THC) value are different. O. agavisa Tsai has its own c-banding feature and is distinguished from other species in the genus. O. bicingula Ma et al . is similar to both the O. chinensis group and O . a gavisu in chromosomal marks and morphological characters, indicating that these three species have some relations during the evolutionary process. O. hyla intricata (Stal) is a "sibling species group" as indicated by the variation of the morphological feature and there are also diversiforms in cytotaxonomic marks. It seems that this group has higher differentiational speed and the speciational evolution is more active in modern times. In this group, O. apicocingula sp. nov. and O. flave femura sp. nov. are more specialized than the other populations which have not many terminal C-bands in genome. As a conclusion, we consider that the evolutionary rate of the species in Oxya genus is unbalanced. This status is due to the actions from both the hereditary basis and the environmental condition of the different species.     

A molecular phylogeny of Oxya (Orthoptera: Acridoidea) in China inferred from partial cytochrome b gene sequences

The grasshoppers of the genus Oxya are well known to damage rice, sugar cane, and other crops, yet their phylogenetic relationships have not been examined with molecular data. In this study, we obtained the 432 bp DNA sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome b gene from 91 individuals of nine Oxya species and two outgroups (Gesonula punctifrons and Acrida cinerea). Phylogenetic analyses for the molecular data set were then carried out using the maximum parsimony and neighbor-joining methods. The results showed that the nine Oxya species form four well-supported clades, which include (1) O. intricata and O. flavefemura; (2) O. japonica and O. bicingula; (3) O. agavisa; and (4) O. chinensis, O. brachyptera, O. adentata, and O. hainanensis, respectively. In particular, the monophyly of O. hainanensis and O. agavisa is strongly supported, respectively. However, O. flavefemura and O. intricata, O. bicingula, and O. japonica form paraphyletic groups, respectively, and O. chinensis, O. adentata, and O. brachyptera form a polyphyletic group, suggesting that they should be merged as few as three species.     

Heterochromatin and rDNA sites distribution in the holocentric chromosomes of Cuscuta approximata Bab. (Convolvulaceae).

Cuscuta is a widely distributed genus of holoparasitic plants. Holocentric chromosomes have been reported only in species of one of its subgenera (Cuscuta subg. Cuscuta). In this work, a representative of this subgenus, Cuscuta approximata, was investigated looking for its mitotic and meiotic chromosome behaviour and the heterochromatin distribution. The mitotic chromosomes showed neither primary constriction nor Rabl orientation whereas the meiotic ones exhibited the typical quadripartite structure characteristic of holocentrics, supporting the assumption of holocentric chromosomes as a synapomorphy of Cuscuta subg. Cuscuta. Chromosomes and interphase nuclei displayed many heterochromatic blocks that stained deeply with hematoxylin, 4',6-diamidino-2-phenylindole (DAPI), or after C banding. The banded karyotype showed terminal or subterminal bands in all chromosomes and central bands in some of them. The single pair of 45S rDNA sites was observed at the end of the largest chromosome pair, close to a DAPI band and a 5S rDNA site. Two other 5S rDNA site pairs were found, both closely associated with DAPI bands. The noteworthy giant nuclei of glandular cells of petals and ovary wall exhibited large chromocentres typical of polytenic nuclei. The chromosomal location of heterochromatin and rDNA sites and the structure of the endoreplicated nuclei of C. approximata seemed to be similar to those known in monocentric nuclei, suggesting that centromeric organization has little or no effect on chromatin organization.     

Molecular cytogenetic characterization and chromosomal distribution of the satellite DNA in the genome of Oxya hyla intricata (Orthoptera: Catantopidae)

The genomic DNA of the grasshopper (Oxya hyla intricata) was subjected to electrophoresis after digestion with HaeIII, and the result showed two bands of highly repetitive DNA, approximately 200 and 400 bp in length. The 200-bp HaeIII-digested fragment was cloned and characterized by sequencing and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH). The results showed the presence of two distinct satellite DNA (stDNA) families: one consisting of a 169-bp repeated element having an A+T content of 60.9% and the other consisting of a 204-bp repeated element having an A+T content of 53.9%. No significant homology between the two stDNA families was observed. FISH showed that the chromosomal locations of these families are different from each other. The 169-bp element was located in the C-band-positive regions of the short arms of most of the chromosomes, whereas the 204-bp element was located in the centromeric regions of three chromosome pairs. These results imply that the origins of these two DNA families are different. The results of zoo-blot hybridization to the genomic DNA from four Oxya species, O. hyla intricata, O. japonica japonica, O. chinensis formosana, and O. yezoensis, suggest that the two stDNA families found in the present study are species-specific for O. hyla intricata.     

Comparative cytogenetic analysis of Cestrum (Solanaceae) reveals different trends in heterochromatin and rDNA sites distribution

Species of Cestrum L. (Solanaceae) exhibit large variability in the accumulation of repetitive DNA, although their species possess a stable diploid number with 2n = 16. In this study, we used chromosome banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) to characterize the karyotypes and populations of two species, Cestrum nocturnum L. and C. mariquitense Kunth. We also performed a karyotype comparison using 16 idiograms, of which 4 were developed in this study and 12 were obtained from the literature. Cestrum nocturnum displayed more bands than C. mariquitense, but the latter exhibited greater interpopulational variation in the band patterns. There was a tendency for large bands to be located at intercalary/terminal regions and for small bands to be located at intermediate/proximal regions. The idiogram comparison revealed a large variation in the amount, distribution, and size of heterochromatic bands. FISH with rDNA probes revealed stability in the number and location of 5S sites, while 45S was more variable in size and number of sites. Although 45S rDNA always appeared in the subterminal regions, this DNA family exhibited a mobility among chromosome pairs. These data highlight the dynamic of repetitive DNA families in these genomes, as well as the contribution for intra- and interspecific karyotype differentiation in Cestrum.     

Revisions of the Genera Lathraea and Christisonia (Orobanchaceae) in China

The present paper deals with taxonomic studies on the genera Lathraea Linn. and Christisonia Gard. (Orobanchaceae) in China. In the genus Lathraea, only a single species in China, L. japonica Miq., is recongnized in the paper. It occurs in southern Shaanxi, southern Gansu, southeastern Sichuan, northern Guizhou and northern Guangdong, also in Japan. L. miqueliana Franch. et Sav., L. chinfushanica Hu et Tang and L. japonica Miq. var. miqueliana (Franch. et Sav.) Ohwi are treated as new synonyms of L. japonica Miq. in this paper. In the genus Christisonia, the most of collections from China, which were identified as C. sinensis G. Beck before, are treated as a new synonym of C. hookeri C. B. Clarke. A few collections of this genus from China, which were mistakenly described as Gleadovia lepoense Hu snd G. kwangtungense Hu, should be transferred to Christisonia hookeri C. B. Clarke. It is distributed in southeastern and south China, westwards to the Himalayas.     

Karyomorphology of six taxa in Chrysanthemum sensu lato (Anthemideae) in Egypt and their genetic relationships by Giemsa C‐banding

Abstract Giemsa C‐banding was applied to the chromosome complements of six diploid species belonging to six genera in Chrysanthemum sensu lato (Anthemideae) distributed in Egypt. Four types of C‐banding distribution were observed in the taxa as follows: (i) negative C‐banding in Anacyclus monanthos (L.) Thell.; (ii) all bands in terminal regions in Achillea fragrantissima (Forssk.) Sch. Bip, which showed 32 bands on 18 chromosomes; (iii) all eight bands at centromeric regions on eight chromosomes in Matricaria recutita L.; and (iv) bands at terminal and centromeric regions in Brocchia cinerea Vis. (12 terminal and six centromeric bands on 12 chromosomes), Cotula barbata DC. (four terminal, six centromeric, and eight short arm bands on 16 chromosomes), and Glebionis coronaria (L.) Cass. ex Spach. (eight terminal on the short arms and four large bands in centromeric regions on 12 chromosomes).
