Dendrosida, here described as new, comprises three taxa:D. batesii Fryxell,D. sharpiana (Miranda) Fryxell ssp.sharpiana, andD. sharpiana ssp.occidentalis Fryxell. The genus is interpreted as a primitive representative of the tribe Malveae, and its relationship to other genera of theAbutilon alliance is discussed. An analysis of mericarp morphology in relation to seed dissemination mechanisms indicates that theAbutilon alliance may be divided into an Abutiloid and a Sidoid group.Dendrosida is included in the latter. 相似文献

Seasonal occurrence and abundance of microfungi at three different depths in tropical forest soils of Delhi were studied using the soil dilution and soil plate techniques. Surface layer in all the soil types exhibited the highest population and species number which gradually declined with depth increase. In total, 58 genera comprising 118 species were isolated of which theDeuteromycetes was represented by 38 genera and 90 species, thePhycomycetes by 10 genera and 18 species, theAscomycetes by 6 genera and 8 species, and theBasidiomycetes andMyxomycetes by single genus and species. Besides the surface vegetation, the edaphic and environmental factors had a profound influence on the occurrence and distribution of microfungi at various depths of soils. 相似文献

Restriction endonuclease fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) were found using the cDNA probe Hox-2.1 for the homeo box-2.1 gene in the mouse. Polymorphism was detected in restriction patterns generated by fragments fromHindIII digestion. The great majority of laboratory strains of mice carries theHox-2.1 a allele. Only two laboratory strains carry theHox-2.1 b allele. Among strains of wild origin, the European subspecies (Mus m. domesticus, M. m. brevirostris, andM. m. musculus) and some Asian subspecies (M. m. castaneus) carry theHox-2.1 a allele. The subspecies from Far Eastern countries (M. m. molossinus, Chinese mice of wild origin, andM. m. yamashinai) carry theHox-2.1 ballele. Using the RFLP, theHox-2.1 gene was mapped on chromosome 11. Three-point cross test data showed that the recombination frequency is 29.6% between theHba and theHox-2.1 genes and 23.5% between theHox-2.1 and theEs-3 genes. The gene order ofHba-Hox-2.1-Es-3 has been confirmed. 相似文献

13 taxa belonging to 4 “species groups” ofGalium L. sect.Aparinoides (Jord.)Gren. produce 15 leaf flavonoids: Apigenin-7-diglucoside, Luteolin-7-monoglucoside and 7-diglucoside, Diosmetin, Diosmetin-7-monoglucoside and 7-diglucoside; Kaempferol-3-rutinoside, Kaempferol-3,7-diglucoside, Quercetin, two Quercetin-3-monoglycosides, Rutin, Quercetin-3-rutinoside-7-glucoside, Quercetin-7-glycoside and an unidentified aglycone. TheG. trifidum, G. obtusum andG. palustre groups (with the exception of theG. tinctorium subspecies andG. elongatum) have similar flavone-flavonole patterns, while theG. antarcticum group produces a specific pattern. Leaf flavonoids of theG. trifidum andG. antarcticum group are inhomogenous, becauseG. tinctorium subsp.tinctorium andG. antarcticum lack flavones. For all taxa (with the exception of those of theG. antarcticum group) intraspecific variation is demonstrated, and 4 populations ofG. trifidum subsp.trifidum, G. tinctorium subsp.tinctorium,G. obtusum subsp.obtusum andG. labradoricum even exhibit intrapopulation variation. The implications of flavonoid data on the systematics and the astonishing intrapopulation and intraspecific variation are discussed. 相似文献

A recessive lethal mutation ofDrosophila melanogaster which as heterozygote enhances the phenotype of several mutant combinations of thebithorax-complex (BX-C) is described here; it is calledEnhancer of bithorax (E(bx)2). The linkage group and the map position of this mutation have been determined; it maps on the third chromosome at - 1.65 map units. It has been cytologically localised to the region 61A1-6. This locus is a possible candidate for positive control of BX-C. 相似文献

The primary response to Thy-1.1 antigen was measured by a plaque assay that detected cells producing antibodies lytic for AKR thymocytes (PFC). TheH-2 congenic mice (B10.K and B10.BR) carryingH-2 complexes of high responders (CBA and C57BR) on the low-responder background (B10) were found to produce significantly fewer PFC than the corresponding donor of theH-2 complex. On the other hand, C3H.B10 mice carrying theH-2 complex of a low responder on the high-responder background produced significantly more PFC than the donor of theH-2 complex. These findings were interpreted as evidence that alleles at previously described loci believed to be components of theI region of theH-2 complex and controlling immune response to Thy-1.1 are influenced by alleles at another locus. Studies of segregating populations of theH-2 congenic lines supplied evidence that this locus, tentatively calledIr-5, is in chromosome 17 (linkage group IX). 相似文献

The species composition of centric diatoms from Lake Frolikha (Transbaikal area) has been studied. The lake is located on the eastern shore of Lake Baikal and connected with it by a river. Twenty-three species of Centrophyceae from 7 genera (Aulacoseira, Cyclostephanos, Cyclotella, Discostella, Handmania, Pliocaenicus, and Stephanodiscus) have been found. The most represented genus is Aulacoseira (11 species). Fifteen species and 4 genera are new for the lake record. All revealed species are known in other lakes of the Baikal region; however Baikal endemics are absent in Lake Frolikha. The flora of centric diatoms in Lake Frolikha can be divided into two groups. The first group includes taxa common in Lake Baikal, and the second group includes taxa not typical for Lake Baikal. The level of differences between flora in Lake Baikal and Lake Frolikha is high (43%) despite the close location and connection to the river. An analysis of distribution of interesting species in Asia is presented. 相似文献

Previously published data on flowering phenology and pollination of neotropical families are reviewed and compared with new observations, in order to evaluate some trends of pollination strategies in neotropical savannas and forests. Central American forestBignoniaceae apparently diminish competition between sympatric species with identical pollination strategies by alternating flowering. On the other hand, in theBignoniaceae of Brazilian cerrado savannas coincident flowering is more common, suggesting different pollination strategies. Bees specialized in nectar robbery are associated withBignoniaceae, particularly mass-flowering species. These nectar robbers stimulate pollinator movements between flowers and thus increase pollen-flow. The flowering phenology of theMalpighiaceae from forests and savannas apparently follows the phenology of theAnthophorinae (mainlyCentridini)-bees, on which this plant group almost exclusively depends for pollination in the Neotropics. As the flowers of different genera and species are very uniform, the bees quite indiscriminately pollinate coexistingMalpighiaceae taxa. In theMalvaceae, the more primitive tree or shrub habit and an allogamous reproduction system is quite significantly associated with an ornithophilous pollination mode. Hummingbirds in the Neotropics have probably influenced the origin of the primitive bird-pollinatedMalvaceae flower. In conjunction with the diversification of theMalvaceae and their migration into more open regions, pollination by bees has apparently become more prominent. ChiropterophilousMalvaceae seem to have developed more recently from ornithophilous ancestors within the neotropical forest regions. As a result of this ecological radiation, parallel modifications of the basic ornithophilous flower principle can be traced in different groups of theMalvaceae. Dynastinae-beetles are pollinators of South and Central American species ofAnnona, Cymbopetalum, Caladium, Talauma, Philodendron, Victoria, Nymphaea, Cyclanthus, Bactris and others. In many cases the relationship between flowers and theirDynastinae visitors is not very specific, principally reflecting differences in the faunistic spectrum of diverse regions and vegetation types. The attraction of these beetles as flower visitors in several unrelated groups of Angiosperms must have occurred repeatedly. It is suggested that the flower visiting species of this beetle group may have acquired their preference for certain pungent or aromatic flower odours by their feeding habits during the larval stage. 相似文献

Results of immunizations of recombinant inbred and congenic strains of mice with the random polymers poly(glu57 lys38ala5) or GLA5 and poly(glu54lys36ala10) or GLA10 indicate that there is an association of the responsiveness with theH-2 haplotype. Although the C57BL/6J mice (H-2 b haplotype) are “non responders”, the C57BL/6By originally derived from mice of the same haplotype are responders. The immune response pattern of recombinant strains carrying haplotypes derived by crossing over within theH-2 complex indicate that the responsiveness is under control of anIr gene which maps to the left of theIB subregion. Studies with the backcross mice indicated multigenic control of the responsiveness, with one locus beingH-2 linked and another locus segregating independently ofH-2. 相似文献

The taxonomic composition ofPhrygilanthus has long been a source of confusion. Until recently the genus was considered to be distributed from Mexico, Central and South America, to Australia, New Guinea, and the Philippines. Analyses of floral morphology, inflorescence structure, life form, fruit type, and especially chromosome numbers indicate thatPhrygilanthus, as classically circumscribed, is a highly heterogeneous and artificial assemblage containing elements now referable to the following ten genera:Cecarria, Desmaria, Gaiadendron, Ligaria, Muellerina, Notanthera, Psittacanthus, Struthanthus, Tripodanthus, andTristerix. Phrygilanthus itself is nomenclaturally illegitimate and must be replaced by Notanthera. A synopsis of the genera segregated from thePhrygilanthus group is included. A key to the New World genera of Loranthaceae is also appended as well as a nomenclator indicating the present generic status of taxa at one time or another assigned toPhrygilanthus. One genus,Cecarria, is described as new; five new combinations are made:Cecarria obtusifolia (Merr.) Barlow,Psittacanthus palmeri (Wats.) Barlow & Wiens,Struthanthus panamensis (Rizzini) Barlow & Wiens,Tristerix aphyllus (DC.) Barlow & Wiens, andTristerix grandiflorus (Ruiz & Pavon) Barlow & Wiens. 相似文献

Analysis ofH-2 mutants: Evidence for multiple CML target specificities controlled by theH-2K
b
gene 总被引:3,自引:3,他引:0
C57BL/6 (H-2 b ) mice and two mutants derived from this strain, B6.C-H-2 ba (Hz1) andE6-H-2 bd (M505), were studied in a number of functional tests, in vitro and in vivo, that assay for differences at theH-2 complex. All three strains give rise to reciprocal mixed lymphocyte reactivity (MLR) and cell-mediated lympholysis (CML) in vitro as well as graft-host reactivity (GVHR) and skin graft rejection in vivo. Analysis for cross-reactivity between these strains in CML revealed that the gained antigens in each mutant do not cross-react, and that Hz1 has lost an antigen shared by C57BL/6 and M505 strains. In addition, spleen cells from B10.A(4R) mice, which differ from theH-2 b haplotype only at theK end of theH-2 complex, recognize a common antigen shared by all three strains tested. Provided that the mutations occurred in theH-2K b gene, these data indicate that a) there are at least three antigenic specificities coded for by theH-2K b gene(s) that serve as targets for receptors on thymus-derived (T) cells in CML; b) since C57BL/6 strain mice and the mutants are serologically indistinguishable on a qualitative basis, the antigens recognized by the receptors on T cells and by humoral H-2 antibody are nonidentical; and c) mutation in theH-2K b locus itself can give rise to allogeneic recognition phenomena such as MLR and GVHR. 相似文献

Molecular genetic analysis was performed using random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) on three commonly used laboratory bred rodent genera viz. mouse (Mus musculus), rat (Rattus norvegicus) and guinea pig (Cavia porcellus) as sampled from the breeding colony maintained at the Animal Facility, CSIR-Indian Institute of Toxicology Research, Lucknow. In this study, 60 samples, 20 from each genus, were analyzed for evaluation of genetic structure of rodent stocks based on polymorphic bands using RAPD markers. Thirty five random primers were assessed for RAPD analysis. Out of 35, only 20 primers generated a total of 56.88 % polymorphic bands among mice, rats and guinea pigs. The results revealed significantly variant and distinct fingerprint patterns specific to each of the genus. Within-genera analysis, the highest (89.0 %) amount of genetic homogeneity was observed in mice samples and the least (79.3 %) were observed in guinea pig samples. The amount of genetic homogeneity was observed very high within all genera. The average genetic diversity index observed was low (0.045) for mice and high (0.094) for guinea pigs. The inter-generic distances were maximum (0.8775) between mice and guinea pigs; and the minimum (0.5143) between rats and mice. The study proved that the RAPD markers are useful as genetic markers for assessment of genetic structure as well as inter-generic variability assessments. 相似文献

Old collections and unpublished newly-discovered specimens of Miocene cercopithecoids studied here include humeri and proximal ulnae from Maboko (KNM MB 2, KNM MB 3, KNM MB 19, KNM MB 32, KNM MB 12038, KNM MB 12044), Nyakach (KNM NC 9824) in Kenya and from Napak (NAP V-8.85) in Uganda. This work leads to the conclusion that two different groups of monkeys may have co-existed in East Africa in the Middle Miocene. After comparison with extant cercopithecoids (Colobus polykomos, Colobus badius, Colubus angolensis, Colobus guereza, Cercopithecus aethiops, Cercopithecus ascanius, Nasalis larvatus, Presbytis entellus and severalPapio andMacaca), the fossils can be divided into two morphological groups. In the distal humerus, the shape of thetrochlea humeri and the orientation of theepicondylus medialis are distinctive; in the ulnae, the distinction is mainly based on the morphology of theincisura trochlearis. Thus, we would have a more terrestrial group and a more arboreal one. The differences (not linked with sex) are large enough to indicate a taxonomic difference (as proposed on the teeth collected to the same sites, by several authors). At this stage, we cannot assign with certainty the specimens to one taxon or the other (Victoriapithecus macinnesi orVictoriapithecus leakeyi). 相似文献

Saline extracts of several varieties ofTriticale had haemagglutinin activity against rabbit, rat and fowl erythrocytes. In contrast to the wheat germ lectin theTriticale lectin was inactive against human B, 0 blood group type erythrocytes and rather high concentrations of the lectin are needed to agglutinate human A blood group type erythrocytes. TheTriticale lectin was purified about 20-fold with a 10% recovery of activity from one of the varieties (DTS 138) by (NH4)2SO4 fractionation followed sequentially by chromatography on DEAE-cellulose and sulphopropyl-Sephadex. Approximately 4 μg of the purified lectin caused visible agglutination with trypsinised rabbit erythrocytes. Among a variety of sugars tested D-glucose, D-mannose and N-acetyl-D-glucosamine (2·5-7·5mM) caused inhibition of agglutination. 相似文献

Mice of three congenic resistant lines differing from C57BL/10 at theH-3, H-13, H-7, andH-8 minor histocompatibility loci were used to immunize, and were immunized with, C57BL/10. Cytotoxic cells which were capable of causing rapid lysis of cells from the immunizing strain were generated at least one-way in all combinations tested. In order for a target to be susceptible to cytolysis, it had to carry both the sameH-2 b haplotype and the same differential minor histocompatibility alleles as the immunizing strain. That is, B10.C(47N) (H-2 b ,H-7 b ) anti-C57BL/10 (H-2 b ,H-7 a ) cytotoxic cells lysed C57BL/10 targets but not B10.BR (H-2 k ,H-7 a ) targets, nor BALB.B (H-2 b ,H-7 b ) targets. Crossreactions in the cytotoxic assay suggest that theH-3, H-13 congenic pair —B10.LP and C57BL/10 —may differ in at least two more minor histocompatibility loci which have not yet been defined. Although 6 x 1066 C57BL/10 lymphoid cells primed B10.D2(57N) (H-8 b ) mice for a secondary in vitro cytotoxic response, a tenfold higher dose apparently made them tolerant. It is concluded that all minor histocompatibility differences can generate cytotoxic T cells which show specificity both for the minor and major histocompatibility alleles. 相似文献

The diamond-back moth,Plutella xylostella (L.) is a major pest of cruciferous crops in Trinidad, West Indies. Pesticides are applied as a control measure but it is now resistant to several of them. Indigenous parasitesApanteles aciculatus (Ashm.),Apanteles sp. (glomeratus group),Spilochalcis hirtifemora (Ashm.) andTrichogramma brasiliensis (Ashm.) are unable to exert economic control.Apanteles plutellae (Kurdj.) andTetrastichus sokolowskii Kurdj. were introduced and are now well established. It is recommended to introduce additional parasitesMacromalon sp. andThyraeella collaris (Grav.) in order to obtain complete biological control. 相似文献
