DNA from pooled leaf samples of 11 true major mangrove, three true minor mangrove, two mangrove associate, two mangrove parasite,
three terrestrial and one cultivated species were isolated for the present study. In total, 198 random amplified polymorphic
DNAs (RAPDs) and 180 restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) loci were scored by using ten primers and 14 enzyme-probe
combinations respectively. The polymorphism observed for these markers revealed a high degree of genetic diversity in mangroves
at both inter-specific or inter-generic levels. A dendrogram, constructed after pooling both RAPD and RFLP data, using a similarity
index was analysed for genome relationships among these species. The dendrogram showed clustering of all the major mangroves,
except for Nypa fruticans (Arecaceae), into one group. All species under the tribe Rhizophorae formed a sub-cluster, to which Xylocarpus granatum was found to be the most closesly related species. The clustering pattern implied that Excoecaria agallocha and Acanthus ilicifolius should be considered as true minor mangroves. The present study also provided molecular data favouring the separation of
Avicennia spp. from the Verbenaceae to create a monotypic family the Avicenniaceae. The separation of Viscum orientale into the Viscaceae was also favoured.

Ten species belonging to four genera of the mangrove tribe Rhizophoreaefound in the Indian subcontinent were analysed for species identification andgenetic relationship using nine mitochondrial gene probes. RFLP patternobservedwith 27 probe enzyme combinations the genera Rhizophora,Bruguiera, Ceriops andKandelia differentiated these species into three classesofmitotypes with further resolution within them. Clustering of these mitotypesindicated that Rhizophora was more closely related toCeriops-Kandelia than to theBruguiera. Though the component species of each genusclustered together, a high degree of heterogeneity was observed among fourspecies of the genus Rhizophora and three species of genusBruguiera. The variation between two species ofCeriops was minimal. Species-specific profiles wereobserved for all the species in some probe-enzyme combination. Though themonotypic genus Kandelia shared a number of loci withgenusCeriops, it remained distinct. The putative parents of thenaturally occuring interspecific hybrid in Pichavaram were reconfirmed to beR. apiculata and R. mucronata. Theresults are discussed with regard to the taxonomic and phylogeneticrelationships between different species and genera of the tribe Rhizophoreae. 相似文献

Mangroves, the intertidal ecosystems occurring primarily in the tropical regions of the world, are valuable natural resources
with high productivity and unique habitat value. However, the genetic structure of plant species within the mangrove ecosystem
is poorly understood. The present communication is the first report on the use of molecular markers in assessing intra-site
and intra-specific polymorphism in one of the mangrove species, Acanthus ilicifolius, for identifying/ detecting distinct genotypes for long-term conservation. Random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) and
restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs) were used to elucidate the intra- and inter-population variability in this
widely distributed mangrove species. In all, 48 genotypes representing eight distinct populations were analysed. A low level
of polymorphism was detected at the intra-population level through both RAPD (3.8–7.3%) and RFLP (3.2–9.1%) analyses. At the
inter-population level, 25 of the 73 RAPD loci (34%) detected through the use of 13 random primers and 44 of the 96 RFLP loci
(45.8%) revealed through 15 probe/enzyme combinations were polymorphic. RFLP analyses were carried out using genomic clones
developed from the same species. The somatic cells of the species displayed 48 chromosomes, with no numerical changes at either
intra- or inter- population levels.

Citrus phylogeny and genetic origin of important species as investigated by molecular markers 总被引:19,自引:0,他引:19
E. Nicolosi Z. N. Deng A. Gentile S. La Malfa G. Continella E. Tribulato 《TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik》2000,100(8):1155-1166
Citrus phylogeny was investigated using RAPD, SCAR and cpDNA markers. The genotypes analyzed included 36 accessions belonging
to Citrus together with 1 accession from each of the related genera Poncirus, Fortunella, Microcitrus and Eremocitrus. Phylogenetic analysis with 262 RAPDs and 14 SCARs indicated that Fortunella is phylogenetically close to Citrus while the other three related genera are distant from Citrus and from each other. Within Citrus, the separation into two subgenera, Citrus and Papeda, designated by Swingle, was clearly observed except for C. celebica and C. indica. Almost all the accessions belonging to subgenus Citrus fell into three clusters, each including 1 genotype that was considered to be a true species. Different phylogenetic relationships
were revealed with cpDNA data. Citrus genotypes were separated into subgenera Archicitrus and Metacitrus, as proposed by Tanaka, while the division of subgenera Citrus and Papeda disappeared. C. medica and C. indica were quite distant from other citrus as well from related genera. C. ichangensis appeared to be the ancestor of the mandarin cluster, including C. tachibana. Lemon and Palestine sweet lime were clustered into the Pummelo cluster led by C. latipes. C. aurantifolia was located in the Micrantha cluster. Furthermore, genetic origin was studied on 17 cultivated citrus genotypes by the same
molecular markers, and a hybrid origin was hypothesized for all the tested genotypes. The assumptions are discussed with respect
to previous studies; similar results were obtained for the origin of orange and grapefruit. Hybrids of citron and sour orange
were assumed for lemon, Palestine sweet lime, bergamot and Volkamer lemon, while a citron × mandarin hybrid was assumed for
Rangpur lime and Rough lemon. For Mexican lime our molecular data indicated C. micrantha to be the female parent and C. medica as the male one.

Total genomic DNA from 31 available Gossypium species, three subspecies and one interspecific hybrid, were analysed to evaluate genetic diversity by RAPD, using 45 random
decamer primers. A total of 579 amplified bands were observed, with 12.9 bands per primer, of which 99.8% were polymorphic.
OPJ-17 produced the maximum number of fragments while the minimum number of fragments was produced with primer OPA-08. Cluster
analysis by the unweighted paired group method of arithmetic means (UPGMA) showed six main clusters. Cluster ’A’ consisted
of two species and one subspecies of the A-genome, with a 0.78–0.92 Nei’s similarity range. Cluster B, composed of all available
tetraploid species and one interspecific hybrid, showed the same sister cluster. Nei’s similarity ranged from 0.69 to 0.84.
The B-genome formed the UPGMA sister cluster to the E-genome species. Cluster ’C’ consisted of five Gossypium species of which three belong to the B-genome, with Nei’s similarity values of 0.81 to 0.86. Although there was considerable
disagreement at lower infra-generic ranks, particularly among the D- genome (diploid New World species) and C-genome (diploid
Australian species) species. The sole F-genome species Gossypium longicalyx was resolved as a sister group to the D-genome species. Gossypium herbaceum and G. herbaceum Africanum showed the maximum Nei’s similarity (0.93). Minimum similarity (0.29) was observed between Gossypium trilobum and Gossypium nelsonii. The average similarity among all studied species was 50%. The analysis revealed that the interspecific genetic relationship
of several species is related to their centre of origin. As expected, most of the species have a wide genetic base range.
The results also revealed the genetic relationships of the species Gossypium hirsutum to standard cultivated Gossypium barbadense, G. herbaceum and Gossypium arboreum. These results correspond well with previous reported results. The level of variation detected in closely related genotypes
by RAPD analysis indicates that it may be a more efficient marker than morphological marker, isozyme and RFLP technology for
the construction of genetic linkage maps.

Identification of sequence variations by PCR-RFLP and its application to the evaluation of cpDNA diversity in wild and cultivated soybeans 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The diversity and maternal lineage in wild and cultivated soybeans have previously been assayed using restriction fragment
length polymorphism (RFLP) and sequencing analyses of chloroplast DNA (cpDNA). Here we describe a method based on PCR-RFLP
for the identification of nucleotides at four mutation sites in non-coding regions of cpDNA. Of the four sites, two were located
in restriction enzyme sites and two were not. For the latter two sites, new primers were designed to artificially create restriction
sites that spanned them. The PCR-RFLP method enabled us to identify nucleotides at each of the four mutation sites easily
and reliably. Fifty-seven wild and sixty-seven cultivated soybeans of different origins and different cpDNA types (types I,
II, and III) were assayed. All of the samples tested could be classified into four haplotypes. All of the type-I and -II accessions
had the same nucleotides at each of the four mutation sites, while all of the type-III accessions, except for 3 wild ones,
had nucleotides that were different from those of types I and II. A sequencing analysis revealed that the 3 wild accessions
possessed other single-base variations in the non-coding regions of trnH-psbA and trnT-trnL. The results of this study suggest that the type-I and type-II chloroplast genomes form a group that is distinct from the
type-III chloroplast genome.

Variation within ribosomal DNA (rDNA) genes of 19 isolates of Pisolithus from different geographic origins and hosts was examined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) coupled with restriction fragment
length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis. The primers utilized amplify rDNA regions in a wide range of fungi. One amplified region
includes the internal transcribed spacer (ITS), which has a low degree of conservation. The ITS amplification products (640–750 bp)
were digested with a variety of restriction endonucleases. Cluster analysis based on the restriction fragments grouped the
isolates into three distinct groups: group I contained isolates collected in the northern hemisphere, except Pt 1, group II
contained those collected in Brazil and group III contained isolate Pt 1. Additional analysis of other rDNA regions, IGS,
17 S and 25 S rDNA, resulted in similar groups. The data suggest that the taxonomy and systematics of this ectomycorrhizal
fungus should be revised.

rbcL (1310 bp) and matK (1014 bp), using 15 species representing the family. The study included analyses of Ticodendron (Ticodendraceae) and three species of Betulaceae as close relatives, and one species each of Juglandaceae and Myricaceae
as outgroups. Analyses based on matK gene sequences, which provided a much better resolution than the analyses based on rbcL gene sequences alone, resulted in a single most parsimonious tree whose topology is almost identical with the strict consensus
tree generated by the combined data set of rbcL and matK gene sequences. Results showed that Casuarinaceae are monophyletic, comprising four distinct genera, Allocasuarina, Casuarina, Ceuthostoma and Gymnostoma, which were not recognized until recently. Within the family, Gymnostoma is positioned at the most basal position and sister to the remainder. Within the remainder Ceuthostoma is sister to the Allocasuarina-Casuarina clade. Morphologically the basalmost position of Gymnostoma is supported by plesiomorphies such as exposed stomata in the shallow longitudinal furrows of the branchlets, a basic chromosome
number x=8 and the gynoecium composed of two fertile, biovulate carpels. The three other genera, Allocasuarina, Casuarina, and Ceuthostoma, have invisible stomata in the deep longitudinal furrows of the branchlets, a higher basic chromosome number x=9 or 10–14 (unknown in Ceuthostoma), the gynoecium composed of one fertile and one sterile carpel with a single ovule (unknown in Ceuthostoma). The diversity of infructescence morphology found in the latter three genera suggests that they may have evolved in close
association with the elaboration of fruit dispersal mechanisms.

Relation of water transport to leaf gas exchange properties in three mangrove species 总被引:16,自引:0,他引:16
M. A. Sobrado 《Trees - Structure and Function》2000,14(5):258-262
Mangrove species more tolerant to salinity may function with less efficient water transport, which may be related to more
conservative water use. To test the hypothesis, we investigate the gas exchange and hydraulic properties of three mangrove
species: Rhizophora mangle L., Laguncularia racemosa Gaert and Avicennia germinans (L.)L. Experiments were performed with adult plants growing naturally in the field under a salinity of 35‰. Gas exchange
parameters showed that A. germinans had significantly higher photosynthetic rates, and lower stomatal conductance and transpiration rates, compared to the other
two mangroves. In concert with this, instantaneous water use efficiency was significantly high in A. germinans, intermediate in L. racemosa and lowest in R. mangle. The hydraulic parameters of the three mangrove species were in the lowest end of the range reported for tropical trees.
However, the three mangrove species exhibited measurable differences in hydraulic parameters related to the control of water
requirements for maintenance of carbon gain. L. racemosa and A. germinans showed less efficient water transport at shoot level but were the more efficient species in water use at the leaf level in
comparison to R. mangle.

Intrageneric phylogeny among ten representative Ceanothus species was investigated using DNA sequences of the chloroplast encoded ndhF and rbcL genes. Parsimony analysis of the ndhF sequences identified two main clades corresponding to two subgenera Ceanothus and Cerastes. The phylogenetic results suggest that three monophyletic clades within the subgenus Ceanothus can be delimited on the basis of (1) evergreen or (2) deciduous leaves and (3) thorn presence within the evergreen clade.
The estimated divergence time based on rbcL sequences suggests that the two subgenera diverged 18–39 million years ago whereas species within each subgenus diverged
more recently. Taken together, the results support the division of Ceanothus into two monophyletic subgenera and are consistent with the postulated recent divergence of many species within each subgenus.

High chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) diversity was found within and among populations of Prunus spinosa sampled from seven European deciduous forests. A study of 12% of the total chloroplast genome detected 44 mutations, which
were distributed over 24 haplotypes; four were common to two or more populations and the rest were unique haplotypes. The
most-abundant and widely distributed haplotype was H2 (frequency = 41% approximately). Six of the seven populations were polymorphic.
All of the six polymorphic populations had ”private” haplotypes (frequency < 5%) in addition to common haplotypes. The UPGMA
dendrogram demonstrated a correlation between populations and their geographical locations. The total diversity was high (hT = 0.824) and a major portion of it was within populations (hs = 0.663). The level of population subdivision for unordered alleles was low (GST = 19.5%) and for ordered alleles was lower (NST = 13.6%). No phylogeographic structure could be demonstrated in the present geographical scale. High polymorphism in the cpDNA
of P. spinosa has to be considered carefully when planning phylogenetic studies involving this species.

A molecular analysis was performed on 56 taxa in the orchid genus Cypripedium using nrDNA ITS and five chloroplast regions (trnH-psbA, atpI-atpH, trnS-trnfM, trnL-F spacer, and the trnL intron). The genus Cypripedium was confirmed as monophyletic. Our data provided strong support for monophyletic grouping of eight infrageneric sections (Subtropica, Obtusipetala, Trigonopedia, Sinopedilum, Bifolia, Flabelinervia, Arietinum, and Cypripedium) defined in earlier taxonomic treatments, and paraphyletic grouping of two sections (Irapeana and Retinervi). Within the genus Cypripedium, the first divergent lineage consisted of two Mesomaerican species, and subsequently the Cypripedium debile lineage from eastern Asia was split. Our study did not support the notion that two Asian species (Cypripedium subtropicum and Cypripedium singchii) were closely related to either Mesoamerican Cypripedium irapeanum or North American Cypripedium californicum, as indicated by previous interpretations based on morphological evidences. In addition, one pair of vicariant species, Cypripedium plectrochilum (eastern Asia) and Cypripedium arietinum (North America), unique to section Arietinum, was confirmed. Furthermore, within the monophyletic section Cypripedium two previously recognized subsections, Cypripedium and Macrantha, were shown to be paraphyletic. Our results suggested that this section split into two groups based on distribution (North America vs. Eurasia) instead of such previously used, morphological traits as flower color, and the shape of the lips (labellum) and lateral petals. 相似文献

Genomic DNA from 84 individuals of Excoecaria agallocha from seven mangrove populations were analysed for random amplified polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) using 16 random 10-mer primers. Polymorphism within populations varied from 20% to 31%. At the interpopulation level, 111/149 (74%) of RAPDs were polymorphic. Restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) analysis of 21 individuals (3 individuals randomly selected from the 7 populations) using 30 probe-enzyme combinations revealed a high level of interpopulation polymorphism (62.2%) indicating interpopulation genetic divergence. The polymorphic RAPDs and RFLPs were pooled, and clustering was carried out based on mean similarity for individual populations. The dendrogram showed groupings of populations from the West and East Coasts of India into separate clusters, at 60% similarity level. Further, RAPD and RFLP analysis of male and female plants showed approximately the same level of variation in both sexes, and no sex-linked markers were found. These results demonstrate that considerable intrapopulation and interpopulation genetic variations exist in E. agallocha, and that lack of genetic variation is not the reason for the morphological uniformity observed across the range of the species. 相似文献

Random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) and chloroplast DNA (cpDNA) markers were used to study interspecific and intergeneric
relationships of Banksia (Proteaceae) to aid breeding of the genus for cut flower production. The accepted morphological phylogeny of Banksia, with two subgenera, two sections and 13 series, is unclear regarding the relationships of the commercial cut flower species
B. coccinea. Fifteen RAPD primers and a non-coding cpDNA sequence between the trnL (UAA) and trnF (GAA) gene were applied to species of Banksia, the related genus Dryandra, and to Musgravea heterophylla as the outgroup, with cluster analysis applied to the results. The two methods were in broad agreement with each other, and
with the accepted taxonomy, with closely related species pairs and groups clustering together, but RAPDs were not informative
between distantly related species or species pairs. Banksia coccinea clustered with Dryandra and formed a polytomy with 2 Dryandra species and the two sections of subgenus Banksia. Subgenus Isostylis formed a polytomy with D. formosa, basal to subgenus Banksia, but with B. cuneata and B. illicifolia (both in subgenus Isostylis) polyphyletic. Dryandra did not separate as a clade and fell within Banksia, raising questions about the currently accepted view of the two as sister genera with parallel morphological development.
The results indicate that interspecific and intergeneric hybridisation with genus Dryandra and subgenus Banksia may be possible routes for improvement of the commercial species B. coccinea.

PCR-RFLP analysis of cpDNA in the genus Abies 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
L. Parducci A. E. Szmidt 《TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik》1999,98(5):802-808
We used PCR-RFLP analysis of the chloroplast DNA of the genus Abies (family Pinaceae), to determine if the method could be employed to detect inter-specific variation in this genus and to study how the variation
was distributed in different regions of the genome. Ten different chloroplast DNA regions, consisting of coding and non-coding
DNA sequences, were amplified with specific primers in ten different Abies taxa. The amplification products were digested with several restriction enzymes. The results showed that the chloroplast
genome is highly variable in most of the investigated taxa and contains multiple variable regions that appear to be distributed
throughout the whole genome. Species-diagnostic markers were found for four of the ten investigated species. Unexpectedly,
intra-specific variation was also detected in four species. It is likely that further studies, including larger sample sizes
and/or more powerful methods for the detection of chloroplast DNA variation, will reveal additional variation for this genus.

Molecular phylogeny of Dipterocarpaceae in Southeast Asia using RFLP of PCR-amplified chloroplast genes 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

Dipterocarpaceae is the dominant family of Southeast Asia's climax tropical rain forest region, and it contains the region's most important commercial timber species. A molecular phylogeny of the Dipterocarpaceae subfamily Dipterocapoideae was constructed using restriction fragment length polymorphisms of polymerase chain reaction-amplified specific genes in chloroplast DNA. A total of 141 site changes were detected among ten genera and 30 species in 11 different genes: rbcL, psbA, psbD, rpoB, rpoC, petB, atpH, 16S, psaA, petA and trnK. Phylogenetic trees constructed by Wanger parsimony and neighbor-joining methods, using Upuna as the outgroup, displayed five monophytelic groups that included Upuna: HopeaShorea-Parashorea-Neobalanocarpus; Dryobalanops; Dipterocarpus; Anisoptera-Vatica-Cotylelobium; and Upuna. The phylogenetic trees clearly separate species with two different base chromosome numbers: the first group is x=7, and the other is x=11. The x=7 group is thought to be in a synapomorphic character state. Parashorea lucida is a sister to most Shorea species. Neobalanocarpus heimii and Hopea from a clade of a sister to two Shorea species, and Cotylelobium and Vatica are closely related species. Our conclusions agree with a phylogeny derived from wood anatomy data analysis, and with Symington's and Ashton's taxonomic classifications.The raw data of the PCR-RFLP analysis can be obtained from the authors 相似文献

The PCR-RFLP technique was used to detect chloroplast DNA diversity in wild populations of Prunus avium from five European deciduous forests and some cultivars. A study of 10.8% of the total chloroplast genome detected eight
insertion-deletion (indel) mutations, distributed over 12 haplotypes. Six haplotypes (H1, H2, H3, H4, H5 and H6) were found
in wild populations and eight (H2, H6, H7, H8, H9, H10, H11 and H12) in the cultivars. Only two haplotypes (H2 and H6) are
shared by the wild populations and the cultivars. The most-abundant and frequent haplotype in wild populations is H2 (frequency=78%).
The wider geographical distribution along with the high frequency reflects its ancient origin. Of the five populations, three
are polymorphic. Populations GA (Scotland) and KE (Germany) have unique haplotypes. The total cpDNA diversity in wild populations
is hT=0.40, and a major portion of it is within populations (hS=0.37). The genetic differentiation among populations was low (GSTC=0.08) and no genetic structure among wild populations was observed. A minimum-length spanning tree, demonstrating relationships
among the haplotypes in wild populations, indicated two possible chloroplast lineages. The ten identified cultivars were represented
by seven haplotypes; this result proposes the possible utilisation of the PCR-RFLP technique for the characterisation of sweet
cherry cultivars. The cpDNA diversity in P. avium should be considered carefully for phylogenetic studies involving this species.
