Fatty acids of eight lichen species belonging to the genus Cladonia were examined by GC-MS. Twenty-two saturated, 23 monoene, five diene, nine triene and eight tetra-, penta- and hexaene fatty acids were identified. Unusually for lichens, very long-chain fatty acids, 25:1, 26:0, 26:1, 26:3, 28:0, 28:1, and 30:1 were detected. 相似文献

The lipid compositions of 17 spirochetes belonging to the genera Spirochaeta and Treponema were investigated and compared with data previously derived from 11 strains of Leptospira. The lipid compositions and lipid metabolism of any of these genera is sufficiently different to be characteristic of that genus and to differentiate it from the other two genera. Members of the genus Leptospira are characterized by their ability to beta-oxidize long chain fatty acids as their major carbon and energy source. With few exceptions, they are incapable of synthesizing fatty acids de novo. The major phospholipid found was phosphatidyl ethanolamine. No glycolipid or phosphatidyl choline was found in these organisms. Members of the genus Treponema studied were incapable of beta-oxidation as well as de novo synthesis of fatty acids. Phosphatidyl choline is the major phospholipid of this genus. The glycolipid, monogalactosyl diglyceride, is a major component of the Treponema. Members of the Spirochaeta did synthesize fatty acids de novo. Although these spirochetes contain a monoglycosyl diglyceride, the hexose content of the glycolipid varied from species to species. Neither phosphatidyl ethanolamine nor phosphatidyl choline was found in the Spirochaeta. 相似文献

Phomopsis amaranthicola, a newly described species discovered in Florida, is under development as a biological control agent for weeds belonging to the genus Amaranthus. Host-range testing was performed on the fungus, using the centrifugal phylogenetic scheme, with Amaranthus hybridus as the focal plant. Forty-five accessions of 21 species in the genus Amaranthus were tested for susceptibility to infection by this fungus. Fifty-six plant species outside the genus Amaranthus were also tested. The latter included crops in which the fungus might be used as a bioherbicide, members of genera that are closely related to Amaranthus, and selections of species that have been reported as hosts of other species of the genera Phomopsis or Diaporthe. Phomopsis amaranthicola did not infect any of the plants from outside the genus Amaranthus but was highly pathogenic to several species in the genus Amaranthus. All Amaranthus species tested were infected to varying degrees by P. amaranthicola; the resulting mortality levels were also variable. Thus, P. amaranthicola appears to be host-specific to the members of the genus Amaranthus. The generic level of specificity of this pathogen renders it not only a safe bioherbicide agent but also one that could be used against several weedy Amaranthus species. 相似文献

Lipophilic extracts from the roots of 16 species of Alepidea were studied by GC-MS for the presence of kaurenoic acids, dehydrokaurenoic acids, kaurenic lactones, hydroxykaurenoic acids and other kaurene derivatives. Various mixtures of these compounds are present in yields of up to 11.8% dry wt. in the rhizomes and roots. Two different isomers of kaurenoic acid occur in Alepidea, the one as a major compound in all the species, the other as a major compound only in some of them. The first isomer is clearly a useful chemical marker for the genus Alepidea, but the apparent chemical dichotomy is not obviously correlated with morphological patterns. Alepidea amatymbica, however, is part of a morphologically isolated group within the genus and also differs from other species in its chemical complexity and in the unique presence of kaurenoic lactones. 相似文献

Five bacterial strains recovered from deep-sea hydrothermal vents were studied for their ability to secrete extracellular polymers. A preliminary characterization displayed four different polysaccharides in terms of both chemical composition and rheological properties. One of them was secreted by Alteromonas macleodii subsp. fijiensis and exhibited similarities with xanthan, a commercial polysaccharide. Two of the three Pseudoalteromonas species were shown to produce the same polymer. The last polymer was secreted by a bacterium belonging to the Vibrio genus. They all contained glucose, galactose, mannose, glucuronic and galacturonic acids as the main sugars with the exception of the last one which was only constituted by uronic acids and hexosamines, in that similar to the structure of heparin, a glycosaminoglycan useful in pharmaceutical area. Applications for these polysaccharides could be expected in various biotechnological fields including the food industry, the wastewater treatment and pharmaceutical areas. 相似文献

The fatty acid composition of 35 strains of stalked bacteria belonging to 17 of the hitherto described 19 species and 10 unidentified strains of the genusCaulobacter was studied. ll-Methyl-cis-octadec-11-enoic acid presumably synthesized fromcis-vaccenic acid was detected in all the strains in amounts of 0.4 – 34.7 % and was considered as a chemotaxonomic marker of the genus. During growth on a peptone-yeast medium, the caulobacters synthesized, along with the fatty acids which are typical of gram-negative bacteria, some normal and branched fatty acids with 15 and 17 carbon atoms (1–49 %). The synthesis of these acids was inhibited by glucose. The cell shape of stalked bacteria (fusiform, vibrioid or bacteroid) is not obviously associated with the contents of individual fatty acids. 相似文献

Two strains designated strains L-1T and L-9T were isolated from activated sludge of a treatment plant that receives wastewater from the tannery industry contaminated with chromium. Phylogenetic analysis showed that the organisms represented two new species of the genus Leucobacter. Strains L-1T and L-9T could be distinguished from the type strain of L. komagatae and from the type strain of “L. albus” by the B-type peptidoglycan composition, fatty acid composition, several phenotypic and physiological characteristics. The major fatty acids of the organisms were iso- and anteiso-branched C15:0 and C17:0, straight-chain C16:0 was also found in relatively high proportions. The organisms were halotolerant, grew in medium containing 9% NaCl, and all strains, including the type strain of L. komagatae grew in medium containing 5 mM Cr(VI). On the basis of the distinct peptidoglycan composition, 16S ribosomal DNA sequence analysis, percentage of DNA-DNA reassociation values, and phenotypic characteristics we are of the opinion that strain L-1T represents a new species of the genus Leucobacter for which we propose the name Leucobacter chromiireducens and that strain L-9T represents an additional new species of the same genus for which we propose the name Leucobacter aridicollis. 相似文献

Using the drop-diffusate technique, a number of isoflavonoid phytoalexins have been obtained from the excised, fungus-inoculated leaflets of 41 species belonging to the legume genus Trigonella. Leaf diffusates variously contained pterocarpan (medicarpin and maackiain) and isoflavan (vestitol and sativan) derivatives previously associated with genera closely allied to Trigonella. In diffusates from T. calliceras, medicarpin was accompanied by a phytoalexin (designated TC-1) provisionally identified as a new hydroxylated pterocarpan. Most of the Trigonella species were also examined for their ability to release coumarin upon tissue maceration. The combined phytoalexin/coumarin data suggest that three major intrageneric chemical divisions occur in Trigonella; two of these apparently link the genus to Medicado/Factorovskya and Melilotus respectively, whilst the third provides some evidence for a connection with Trifolium. The taxonomic aspects of these findings are discussed in the light of earlier morphological studies which provided evidence for a distinct floral dichotomy amongst Trigonella species. 相似文献

Stearidonic acid (18:4ω3), which is reported to be of rare occurrence in the plant kingdom and which is of considerable dietary and pharmaceutical interest has been found in three closely related Primula species. It occurs, together with γ-linolenic acid (3–4% of the seed oil total fatty acids), in significant percentages in Primula florindae (11%), P. sikkimensis (14%) and P. alpicola (14%). 18:4(ω3 may also be of chemotaxonomic interest in the genus Primula, as high levels may be typical for section Sikkimensis. The only commercial plant source of stearidonic acid known so far is the seed oil of Ribes nigrum. 相似文献

Using species-level phylogenies, the speciation mode of Gyrodactylus species infecting a single host genus was evaluated. Eighteen Gyrodactylus species were collected from gobies of the genus Pomatoschistus and sympatric fish species across the distribution range of the hosts. The V4 region of the ssrRNA and the internal transcribed spacers encompassing the 5.8S rRNA gene were sequenced; by including published sequences a total of 30 species representing all subgenera were used in the data analyses. The molecular phylogeny did not support the morphological groupings into subgenera as based on the excretory system, suggesting that the genus needs systematic revisions. Paraphyly of the total Gyrodactylus fauna of the gobies indicates that at least two independent colonisation events were involved, giving rise to two separate groups, belonging to the subgenus Mesonephrotus and Paranephrotus, respectively. The most recent association probably originated from a host switching event from Gyrodactylus arcuatus, which parasitises three-spined stickleback, onto Pomatoschistus gobies. These species are highly host-specific and form a monophyletic group, two possible ‘signatures’ of co-speciation. Host specificity was lower in the second group. The colonising capacity of these species is illustrated by a host jump from gobiids to another fish order (Anguilliformes), supporting the hypothesis of a European origin of Gyrodactylus anguillae and its intercontinental introduction by the eel trade. Thus, allopatric speciation seems to be the dominant mode of speciation in this host–parasite system, with a possible case of sympatric speciation. 相似文献

Three new ciliate species presumably belonging to the family Paraisotrichidae were recognized in the fecal samples from zoo-kept Asian and African elephants. All the ciliates possess a unique but similar arrangement of somatic ciliature, thus a new genus Latteuria n.g. has been created for them. The genus is characterized by the presence of a tapered frontal ‘spout’ at the anterior end of the body, posterior ciliary rows in narrow grooves encircling the posterior half of the body and an anterior arch of cilia. Latteuria polyfaria n.sp. is the largest species in the genus with 9–11 posterior ciliary rows. In L. media n.sp., of medium body size, the number of rows varies from four to six, and the smallest species, L. trifaria n.sp., has only three-four posterior ciliary rows. 相似文献

Glass sponges (Hexactinellida) collected under the framework of the MAR-ECO project on the G.O. Sars cruise to the northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge, between the Azores and the Reykjanes Ridge, and on the 49th cruise of Akademik Mstislav Keldysh to the Charlie-Gibbs Fracture Zone are described. Fourteen species were identified in the material. This relatively rich fauna includes several novel findings, indicating that the hexactinellid fauna of the northern Mid-Atlantic Ridge is poorly investigated. One genus, Dictyaulus, has never before been reported from the Atlantic Ocean. Two species belonging to the genera Heterotella and Amphidiscella are new to science. Two other species, Rossella nodastrella Topsent, 1915 and Doconestes sessilis Topsent, 1928, have been collected just one other time. Finally, a probable new genus of Euplectellidae, which unfortunately cannot be adequately described because of how small the specimens are, is represented among these collections. A large portion of dead, rigid skeletons of Euretidae and spicule mats of Rossellidae are also reported but not described in detail. Representation of some genera in the Charlie-Gibbs Fracture Zone, coupled with recent observations from elsewhere along the Mid-Atlantic mountain chain, suggests that this fauna is as similar to those of the Indian Ocean and Indo-West Pacific as it is to West or East Atlantic faunas. 相似文献

The flavonoid aglycone analysis of 20 Thymus taxa (most Iberic or Balearic endemics) shows the presence of luteolin, apigenin, acacetin, genkwanin, 6-hydroxyluteolin, xanthomicrol, cirsimaritin; four partially identified flavones, of which three are 6-OR-substituted and one flavonol. The differences observed between T. capitatus (L.) Hoffmanns. et Link (subgenus Coridothymus (Reichenb. fil.) Borbás) and the other species belonging to the subgenus Thymus (L.) Jalas, seem enough to maintain the separation of the two groups, but within the same genus, as proposed in Flora Europaea. 相似文献

The fatty acid composition of fixed oils obtained from the seeds of 10 species of Nigella (Nigella orientalis L., Nigella oxypetala L., Nigella latisecta P.H. Davis, Nigella segetalis Bieb., Nigella arvensis L., Nigella damascena L., Nigella elata Boiss., Nigella nigellastrum (L.) Willk., Nigella unguicularis (Lam.) Spenner, and Nigella lancifolia Hub.-Mor.) from Turkey have been investigated. The seeds contained 17.6–41.3% fixed oils. Linoleic (31.21–69.5%) and oleic acids (15.79–36.03%) were the major fatty acids in the oils. Eicosenoic acid was found in high amounts in the oils of N. nigellastrum and N. unguicularis seeds (23.12 and 17.47%, respectively). N. nigellastrum, N. elata and N. unguicularis seed oils showed the highest concentration of eicosadienoic acid (9.40, 8.39 and 7.17%, respectively). In all fixed oils, the quantities of unsaturated fatty acids were higher than those of the saturated analogues. 相似文献

A total of 46 populations belonging to the genus Coincya Ruoy (Brassicaceae) from the Iberian Peninsula was examined for their wax ester fatty acids composition. Size of ester fatty acids in the genus Coincya varies between 14 and 28 carbon atoms. This series is dominated by acids with an even number of carbon atoms. The most abundant acids are Ojg, C^y, C^^o and C26 among evens and C17 and C21 among odds. A positive correlation was observed between chemical composition and environmental adaptation, and also with certain morphological characters. Changes relate to low temperatures or to high relative humidity, and there is a positive correlation between chemical composition and leaf glaucousness. 相似文献

The fatty acid composition of lipids was studied in Penicillium fungi growing in different habitats. Saturated fatty acids were represented by lauric, margaric, stearic and palmitic acids (the latter prevailed-- 18%-26%). Unsaturated monoene fatty acids were represented by acids from C16:1 to C18:1, diene and triene fatty acids by linoleic and linolenic acids. The predominance of linoleic acid was not found in all cultures of the genus. Changes in the fatty acid composition of lipids may be attributed to different ecological habitats of the Penicillium genus species. 相似文献

When grown on meat-peptone agar with heated blood, different Haemophilus species (H. influenzae, H. parahaemolyticus, H. parasuis, H. pleuropneumoniae), including different H. influenzae serovars (a, b, c, d, e, f), and Pasteurella multocida have identical fatty acid composition, characterized by the prevalence of fatty acids with 16 carbon atoms, constituting about 70% and more of the total number of fatty acids, and a low level of fatty acids with 18 carbon atoms. P. multocida strains cultivated on meat-peptone agar with unheated blood have a greatly increased content of fatty acids with 18 carbon atoms, while the content of fatty acids with 16 carbon atoms is much lower. The identity of fatty acid composition under similar cultivation conditions, together with their similarity in other phenetic signs, is indicative of close phylogenic relationship between bacteria belonging to the genus Haemophilus and P. multocida. 相似文献
