In anticipation of the application of a new sporeling-raising method using gametophyte clones to Laminaria commercial cultivation in China, techniques of mass culture and gametogenesis induction of L. japonica gametophyte clones were developed, as a mass of fertile gametophytes is a prerequisite for sporeling-raising with the new
method. Gametophyte clones which were subjected to fed-batch culture exhibited a classical logistic growth curve. Growth rates
decreased gradually after 2 months of culture, and were negatively correlated to cell density. UNOVA also showed that only
cell density has a significant effect on the growth of gametophyte clones under the experimental conditions. Based on the
dynamics models revealed, a culture strategy only directed at the control of cell density was adopted. By this strategy, a
total of 36 kg wet weight from an initial weight of 0.75 kg was achieved after 3 months culture in 100 20-L bottles. The final
average density reached 24 g L−1. For the subsequent gametogenesis induction, amplificatory male and female gametophyte clones were cut, mixed and cultured
in bottles under the same conditions used in amplification except for a change of photoperiod from continuous irradiance to
10 h light: 14 h dark cycle. Egg discharge occurred 10 days after the mixed culture and increased gradually with the culture
duration. Most gametophytes gave rise to sporophytes 20 days after induction. Large-scale culture of gametophyte clones and
gametogenesis induction for commercial cultivation in 2003–2005 have been conducted successfully. 相似文献

The seaweed Laminaria japonica (Phaeophyceae) has a two-generation life cycle consisting of haploid gametophytes and diploid sporophytes. Female and/or male gametophytes were transformed using particle bombardment and the histological LacZ assay was performed on sporophytes generated by either parthenogenesis or inbreeding. Female gametophyte-targeted transformation resulted in similar lower efficiencies in both parthenogenetic and zygotic sporophytes, and only a chimeric expression pattern was observed. Male gametophyte-targeted transformation led to a higher efficiency, with 3.5% of the zygotic sporophytes stained completely blue (all-blue), implying the integration of lacZ at the one-cell stage. Polymerase chain reaction analysis using primers specific for a lacZ-vector juncture fragment and subsequent blotting indicated the presence of the introduced gene in the sporophytes. The method reported here has a potential for seaweed transformation using spore-based bombardment followed by the developmental process.Abbreviations DPR Detected positive rate - ER Expression rateCommunicated by F.

During an occurrence of Hole-Rotten Disease of Laminaria japonica in a cultivating farm in Ma Shan Shandong province, China, 42 Gram-negative epiphytic marine bacteria were isolated and purified
on Zobell 2216E marine agar medium. Morphological and biochemical characteristics of each isolated bacterium were studied,
and molecular identification of bacterial strains was conducted with polymerase chain reaction amplification to 16S rRNA gene
sequence analysis. Based on nearly full length of 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis, the isolated strains were bacteria that
belong to genus Pseudoalteromonas, Vibrio, Halomonas and Bacillus. The percentage of each group was 61.9%, 28.6%, 7.1% and 2.4% respectively. The results of pathogenicity assay showed that
12 strains could cause the disease symptoms in sporophytes of L. japonica. They belonged to the genera Pseudoalteromonas, Vibrio and Halomonas with 58.3%, 33.3%, 8.3% respectively. The results suggest that these bacteria are the dominant marine bacteria on diseased
sporophytes of L. japonica and may be the potential pathogenic bacteria associated with Hole-Rotten Disease of L. japonica. 相似文献

A simple method was developed for extracting DNA from brown algae Laminaria japonica, which possess large amounts of acidic polysaccharides. Firstly, the sporophyte were washed by eliminating polysaccaride buffer to remove the polysaccharides and then ground in liquid nitrogen. Secondly, the powders were treated with lysing buffer. Thirdly, KAc was used to eliminate the remaining acidic polysaccharides. The extracted DNA was purified using a chloroform-isoamyl alcohol (24:1 v/v), and precipitated in cold isopropanol. The yield was from 18.7 to 37.5 μg g−1 (wet weight) and the purity of total DNA was determined spectrophotometrically as the ratio of A260/A280, which was about 1.7–1.9. The extracted DNA was of high quality and suitable for molecular analyses, such as PCR, restriction enzyme digestion. This method is a reproducible, simple, and rapid technique for routine DNA extraction from sporophyte in Laminaria japonica. Furthermore, the low cost of this method makes it attractive for large-scale studies. 相似文献

Gametophyte cells of brown algae Laminaria japonica were employed both in a modified silicone tubular membrane-aerated photobioreactor (bubble-less cultivation mode) and a bubble-column
photobioreactor (bubbling cultivation mode), to study different gas–liquid mixing modes on cell growth rate and cell physiological
status. With an inoculum density of 50 mg DCW l−1, in modified artificial Pacific seawater (APSW) medium at 13°C, light intensity of 60 μE m−2 s−1, light cycle of 16/8 h L/D, and aeration rate of 60 ml min−1, the specific growth rates were 0.082 d−1 for bubble-less mode and 0.070 d−1 for bubbling mode with biomass, in the form of dry cell density, increasing 10.9 and 6.8 times, respectively, during the
36 days’ photolithotrophic cultivation. The specific oxygen evolution rate under bubble-less mode was 39.6% higher than under
bubbling mode on the 18th day. The gametophyte cells grew in cell aggregates with clump sizes, at day 36, of 1.5 mm and 0.5 mm
diameter under bubble-less and bubbling mode respectively and cell injury percentages of 5.1% and 21.1%, respectively. The
silicone tubular membrane-aerated photobioreactor was better suited for the cultivation of fragile macroalgal gametophyte
cells due to the absence of hydrodynamic shear stress caused by fluid turbulence and the presence of a bubble-less gas supply. 相似文献

The growth of an individual thallus of the brown alga Laminaria japonica was studied in a laboratory environment. It was found that daily accretion of the Laminaria thallus can remain constant for a long time. The blade grew in length at a distance from 0 to 15–25 cm from the stipe-blade border, which makes up 60% of the blade length. In width, the blade grew both in the central and in the lateral parts of the blade, 0 to 7–10 cm from the stipe-blade border, which makes up 30% of the frond length. The transposition of a perforation hole mark from the stipe-blade border toward the blade tip evidenced the formation of new tissue in the growth zone even when the thallus diminished in size due to destruction of the blade tip. Based on the results of this observation, it was concluded that both restraint of accumulation and even reduction of the algal thallus in biomass and size cannot be taken as an indication of algal growth cessation.Original Russian Text Copyright ¢ 2005 by Biologiya Morya, Skriptsova, Leletkin. 相似文献

Recent studies on global climate change report that increase in seawater temperature leads to coastal ecosystem change, including
coral bleaching in the tropic. In order to assess the effect of increased seawater temperature on a temperate coastal ecosystem,
we studied the inter-annual variation in productivity of Laminaria japonica using long-term oceanographic observations for the Uwa Sea, southern Japan. The annual productivity estimates for L. japonica were 2.7 ± 2.5 (mean ± SD) kg wet wt. m−1 (length of rope) (2003/2004), 1.0 ± 0.6 kg wet wt. m−1 (2004/2005) and 12.1 ± 12.5 kg wet wt. m−1 (2005/2006). Our previous study using the same methodology at the same locality reported that the productivity was estimated
for the 2001/2002 (33.3 ± 15.2 kg wet wt. m−1) and 2002/2003 (34.0 ± 8.7 kg wet wt. m−1) seasons. Productivity in 2003/2004 and 2004/2005 was significantly lower than in years 2001/2002, 2002/2003 and 2005/2006.
A comparison of oceanographic conditions among the 5 years revealed the presence of threshold seawater temperature effects.
When the average seawater temperature during the first 45 days of each experiment exceeded 15.5°C, productivity was reduced
to about 10 % of that in cooler years. Moreover the analysis of growth and erosion rates indicates that when the seawater
temperature was over 17.5°C, erosion rate exceeded growth rate. Thus, an increase of seawater temperature of just 1°C during
winter drastically reduces the productivity of L. japonica in the Uwa Sea. 相似文献

Haploid sporophytes of Osmunda claytoniana (2n = x = 22) were apogamously produced from calli when cultivated on a hormone-free medium. Flow cytometric analysis showed that
ploidy chimeras were spontaneously produced in a haploid sporophyte of O. claytoniana and those of O. japonica that were obtained in the previous study. In the haploid sporophyte of O. claytoniana, a diploid pinnule and a partially diploid terminal segment were produced in a haploid pinna. In O. japonica, a haploid sporophyte yielded a diploid pinna in a haploid frond, and another haploid sporophyte yielded a diploid pinnule
in a haploid pinna. Diploid chimeras were large in size and could be readily distinguished from other haploid parts of the
fronds. It is likely that the chimeras were produced clonally from a single diploid cell that established chromosome doubling. 相似文献

The maT clade of transposons is a group of transposable elements intermediate in sequence and predicted protein structure to mariner and Tc transposons, with a distribution thus far limited to a few invertebrate species. We present evidence, based on searches of publicly available databases, that the nematode Caenorhabditis briggsae has several maT-like transposons, which we have designated as CbmaT elements, dispersed throughout its genome. We also describe two additional transposon sequences that probably share their evolutionary history with the CbmaT transposons. One resembles a fold back variant of a CbmaT element, with long (380-bp) inverted terminal repeats (ITRs) that show a high degree (71%) of identity to CbmaT1. The other, which shares only the 26-bp ITR sequences with one of the CbmaT variants, is present in eight nearly identical copies, but does not have a transposase gene and may therefore be cross mobilised by a CbmaT transposase. Using PCR-based mobility assays, we show that CbmaT1 transposons are capable of excising from the C. briggsae genome. CbmaT1 excised approximately 500 times less frequently than Tcb1 in the reference strain AF16, but both CbmaT1 and Tcb1 excised at extremely high frequencies in the HK105 strain. The HK105 strain also exhibited a high frequency of spontaneous induction of unc-22 mutants, suggesting that it may be a mutator strain of C. briggsae. 相似文献

The utility of interstitial water concentrations of metals and simultaneously extracted metals/acid-volatile sulfide differences (SEM–AVS) in two seasons were investigated to explain the biological availability of zinc in sediments to benthic organisms exposed in the laboratory. The amphipod Grandidierella japonica was exposed, in 10-day acute toxicity tests, to clean sediment spiked with zinc to obtain nominal treatments ranging from 0.25 to 74.4 mol g–1 dry weight with respect to the molar difference between SEMZn and AVS. When the molar difference between SEMZn and AVS (i.e., SEM–AVS) was <0 mol g–1, the concentration of zinc in the sediment interstitial water was low and few adverse effects were observed for any of the biological endpoints measured. Conversely, when SEMZn–AVS exceeded 0 mol g–1, the concentration of zinc in the interstitial water and amphipod mortality increased. These data compare favorably with observations made in short-term exposures and thus support the use of AVS as a normalization phase for predicting toxicity in metal-contaminated sediments in different season. 相似文献

We have investigated the floral ontogeny of Arillastrum, Allosyncarpia, Stockwellia and Eucalyptopsis (of the eucalypt group, Myrtaceae) using scanning electron microscopy and light microscopy. Several critical characters for establishing relationships between these genera and to the eucalypts have been determined. The absence of compound petaline primordia in Arillastrum, Allosyncarpia, Stockwellia and Eucalyptopsis excludes these taxa from the eucalypt clade. Post-anthesis circumscissile abscission of the hypanthium above the ovary in Stockwellia, Eucalyptopsis and Allosyncarpia is evidence that these three taxa form a monophyletic group; undifferentiated perianth parts and elongated fusiform buds are characters that unite Stockwellia and Eucalyptopsis as sister taxa. No floral characters clearly associate Arillastrum with either the eucalypt clade or the clade of Stockwellia, Eucalyptopsis and Allosyncarpia.We gratefully acknowledge Clyde Dunlop and Bob Harwood (Northern Territory Herbarium) for collecting specimens of Allosyncarpia, and Bruce Gray (Atherton) for collecting specimens of Stockwellia. The Australian National Herbarium (CANB) kindly lent herbarium specimens of Eucalyptopsis for examination.

A pea rust fungus, Uromyces viciae-fabae, has been classified into two varieties, var. viciae-fabae and var. orobi, based on differences in urediniospore wall thickness and putative host specificity in Japan. In principal component analyses, morphological features of urediniospores and teliospores of 94 rust specimens from Vicia, Lathyrus, and Pisum did not show definite host-specific morphological groups. In molecular analyses, 23 Uromyces specimens from Vicia, Lathyrus, and Pisum formed a single genetic clade based on D1/D2 and ITS regions. Four isolates of U. viciae-fabae from V. cracca and V. unijuga could infect and sporulate on P. sativum. These results suggest that U. viciae-fabae populations on different host plants are not biologically differentiated into groups that can be recognized as varieties.Contribution no. 184, Laboratory of Plant Parasitic Mycology, Institute of Agriculture and Forestry, University of Tsukuba, Japan 相似文献

Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and particle bombardment are the two most widely used methods for genetically modifying grasses. Here, these two systems are compared for transformation efficiency, transgene integration and transgene expression when used to transform tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Schreb.). The bar gene was used as a selectable marker and selection during tissue culture was performed using 2 mg/l bialaphos in both callus induction and regeneration media. Average transformation efficiency across the four callus lines used in the experiments was 10.5% for Agrobacterium-mediated transformation and 11.5% for particle bombardment. Similar transgene integration patterns and co-integration frequencies of bar and uidA were observed in both gene transfer systems. However, while GUS activity was detected in leaves of 53% of the Agrobacterium transformed lines, only 20% of the bombarded lines showed GUS activity. Thus, Agrobacterium-mediated transformation appears to be the preferred method for producing transgenic tall fescue plants. 相似文献

Four amino acids were variable between the ‘active’ indica-type and ‘inactive’ japonica-type soluble starch synthase IIa (SSIIa) of rice plants; Glu-88 and Gly-604 in SSIIa of indica-cultivars IR36 and Kasalath were replaced by Asp-88 and Ser-604, respectively, in both japonica cultivars Nipponbare and Kinmaze SSIIa, whereas Val-737 and Leu-781 in indica SSIIa were replaced by Met-737 in cv. Nipponbare and Phe-781 in cv. Kinmaze SSIIa, respectively. The SSIIa gene fragments shuffling experiments revealed that Val-737 and Leu-781 are essential not only for the optimal SSIIa activity, but also for the capacity to synthesize indica-type amylopectin. Surprisingly, however, a combination of Phe-781 and Gly-604 could restore about 44% of the SSIIa activity provided that Val-737 was conserved. The introduction of the ‘active’ indica-type SSIIa gene enabled the japonica-type cv. Kinmaze to synthesize indica-type amylopectin. The starch in the transformed japonica rice plants exhibited gelatinization-resistant properties that are characteristic of indica-rice starch. Transformed lines expressing different levels of the IR36 SSIIa protein produced a variety of starches with amylopectin chain-length distribution patterns that correlated well with their onset temperatures of gelatinization. The present study confirmed that the SSIIa activity determines the type of amylopectin structure of rice starch to be either the typical indica-type or japonica-type, by playing a specific role in the synthesis of the long B1 chains by elongating short A and B1 chains, notwithstanding the presence of functional two additional SSII genes, a single SSI gene, two SSIII genes, and two SSIV genes in rice plants. 相似文献

P transposons belong to the eukaryotic DNA transposons, which are transposed by a cut and paste mechanism using a P-element-coded transposase. They have been detected in Drosophila, and reside as single copies and stable homologous sequences in many vertebrate species. We present the P elements Pcin1, Pcin2 and Pcin3 from Ciona intestinalis, a species of the most primitive chordates, and compare them with those from Ciona savignyi. They showed typical DNA transposon structures, namely terminal inverted repeats and target site duplications. The coding
region of Pcin1 consisted of 13 small exons that could be translated into a P-transposon-homologous protein. C. intestinalis and C. savignyi displayed nearly the same phenotype. However, their P elements were highly divergent and the assumed P transposase from C. intestinalis was more closely related to the transposase from Drosophila melanogaster than to the transposase of C. savignyi. The present study showed that P elements with typical features of transposable DNA elements may be found already at the base of the chordate lineage.

Notocactus scopa cv. Soonjung was subjected to in planta Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated transformation with vacuum infiltration, pin-pricking, and a combination of the two methods. The pin-pricking combined with vacuum infiltration (20-30 cmHg for 15 min) resulted in a transformation efficiency of 67-100%, and the expression of the uidA and nptII genes was detected in transformed cactus. The established in planta transformation technique generated a transgenic cactus with higher transformation efficiency, shortened selection process, and stable gene expression via asexual reproduction. All of the results showed that the in planta transformation method utilized in the current study provided an efficient and time-saving procedure for the delivery of genes into the cactus genome, and that this technique can be applied to other asexually reproducing succulent plant species. 相似文献
