黑芥与花椰菜体细胞杂种花粉母细胞的减数分裂不同步及染色体行为异常

本研究对黑芥与花椰菜体细胞杂种及其双亲的花粉母细胞减数分裂行为进行了观察和比较,结果表明黑芥与花椰菜的花粉母细胞减数分裂同步性很高,而其体细胞杂种表现出明显的减数分裂不同步,各杂种不同株系间减数分裂不同步的程度与跨度各异.减数分裂不同步发生是由于为部分花粉母细胞在减数分裂某一时期发生停滞或推迟,这一时期(或第一个停滞时期)主要发生在第一次减数分裂的前期.花粉母细胞发育虽不同步,但最后均完成减数分裂形成花粉粒,所形成的花粉粒的活性相差甚远.此外,研究结果还显示,体细胞杂种有着较高的减数分裂染色体行为异常频率,尤其是在中期Ⅰ后.主要表现为减数分裂中期Ⅰ的染色体的早迁、后期Ⅰ和后期Ⅱ的染色体滞后及染色体不均等分离、四分体时期的异常等现象.花粉粒的活性与减数分裂时期染色体行为异常程度有关,染色体行为异常及微核现象出现的频率越高,相对的花粉粒活力也越低.     

桔梗花粉母细胞减数分裂及雄性败育的细胞生理学研究

以桔梗不育系PA及其保持系PB为试验材料,采用石蜡切片和改良苯酚品红染色压片法对花粉母细胞减数分裂和雄配子体发育过程进行比较,探讨桔梗雄性不育系小孢子形成过程和败育发生的细胞生理学机理。结果表明:(1)桔梗保持系PB花粉母细胞减数分裂的细胞质分裂为同时型,同一花药减数分裂较同步;在中期Ⅰ和中期Ⅱ,少数细胞中可见赤道板外染色体;四分体以四面体为主,成熟花粉粒为二核花粉。(2)不育系PA花粉母细胞减数分裂后期Ⅰ开始出现异常,表现为细胞质形态改变,末期Ⅱ之后细胞质不能分裂,形成异常四分体,胼胝质壁不能溶解,四分体难以释放出游离小孢子而被降解,导致败育。(3)在发育过程中,桔梗不育系花蕾游离脯氨酸、可溶性蛋白含量低于保持系,而SOD活性、丙二醛含量均高于保持系。(4)桔梗不育系PA及其保持系PB花粉母细胞减数分裂和雄配子体发育过程存在明显差异,桔梗雄性败育过程大体可分为4个阶段,即后期Ⅰ细胞质异常、末期Ⅱ之后细胞质不能分裂、四分体难以释放游离小孢子、四分体被降解仅残留碎片。研究认为,桔梗不育花蕾(开花前)生长发育过程中,体内活性氧代谢紊乱、丙二醛积累及游离脯氨酸等"物质代谢损亏"可能是引起桔梗雄性败育的原因。     

青花菜花粉母细胞减数分裂及雄配子体发育

本文报道了栽培番茄（Lycopersico esculentum)“北京早红”等5个品种分别与野生型秘鲁番茄（L.peruvianum)PI128657中8号株系杂交,离体胚培养,得F1杂种植株,对花粉母细胞在减数分裂中染色体行为和终变期二价体交叉点的频率,以及亲和性程度等进行了.结果表明,6个亲本植株花粉母细胞减数分裂染色体的行为是正常的,中期I为12个二价体。其中环状二价体占多数,棒状二价体数较少,中期I没有单价体,后期I和II均正常,四分体阶段无微出现,但各亲本在终变期和中期I的环状二价体和棒状二价体的数有一定的差异,这可能与不同亲本基因型的亲和性程度和在遗传学上的不协调有关。5个组合的大多数F1杂种花粉母细胞减数分裂中染色体行为基本正常,12个二价体占多数,但染色体配对不稳定,有较多的单价体,染色单体桥。四分体阶段有微核,此外,在5个组合的F1杂种植株中,均出现双二倍体花粉母细胞,这些双二倍体花粉母细胞的染色体,在减数分裂中,也均,出现落后染色体和染色单体桥,以及较多的多价体,四分体阶段有微和不同类型的四分孢子群。     

小胡杨花粉母细胞减数分裂染色体行为研究

采用常规压片法对小胡杨花粉母细胞减数分裂过程染色体行为及花粉特性进行了研究.结果表明:小胡杨花粉母细胞减数分裂过程中表现出极强的异质性,减数分裂各时期异常细胞出现率均超过70%.其中,终变期存在大量单价体、后期观察到落后染色体,证明小胡杨的两个亲本亲缘关系较远.小胡杨花粉母细胞减数分裂过程高频率异常现象(后期I落后染色体71.87%,染色体桥8.13%;末期Ⅰ有77.18%的微核细胞;后期Ⅱ有85.60%的异常细胞等)的发生直接导致其大部分花粉发育异常(99.48%),表现出远缘杂种的败育特性.

利用塑料半薄切片对水稻同源四倍体亚种间杂种F1及其对应的二倍体杂种F1小孢子母细胞减数分裂过程的细胞学变化进行观察研究.结果表明,同源四倍体水稻亚种间杂种造孢细胞期和小孢子母细胞期已经表现出较高频率的异常;减数分裂过程中,小孢子母细胞出现异常更加复杂,主要包括小孢子母细胞液泡化和退化两大类,这些异常是导致杂种花粉败育和花粉低育性的重要原因之一;此外,绒毡层异常也是导致杂种的花粉育性降低的因素.二倍体杂种小孢子母细胞在减数分裂过程的异常类型与水稻同源四倍体亚种间杂种基本相似,其绒毡层异常频率较低,对其花粉低育性影响不大.     

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
