中华猕猴和美味猕猴桃自然居群遗传结构及其种间杂交渐渗

利用9对SSR引物对中华猕猴桃(Actinidia chinensis)和美味猕猴桃(A. Deliciasa)两近缘种的5个同域分布复合体和各自1个非同域分布居群进行了遗传多样性、居群遗传结构的分析以及种间杂交渐渗的探讨.结果表明:1)两物种共有等位基因比例高达81.13%,物种特有等位基因较少(中华猕猴桃:13.27%,美味猕猴桃:5.61%),但共享等位基因表型频率在两近缘种间存在差异,而且与各同域复合体中两物样本的交错程度或间距存在关联;2)两种猕猴桃均具有极高遗传多样性,美味猕猴桃的遗传多样性(Ho=0.749,PIC=0.818)都略高于中化猕猴桃(Ho=0.686,PIC=0.799);3)两猕猴桃物种均具有较低的Nei'8居群遗传分化度,但AMOVA分析结果提示种内异域居群间(FST=0.0915)和同域复合体种间(FST=0.1115)均存在一定程度的遗传分化;中华猕猴无法居群遗传分化(GST=0.086;FST=0.2121)高于美味猕猴桃(GST=0.080;FST=0.1420);4)同域分布复合体两物种间的遗传分化(GST=0.020)低于物种内异域居群间的遗传分化(中华猕猴桃:GST=0.086;美味猕猴桃:Nm=2.880);5)居群UPGMA聚类提示在同一地域的居群优先聚类,个体聚类结果显示多数个体聚在各自群组内,但各地理居群并不按地理距离的远近聚类,这与Mantel相关性检测所提示的居群间遗传距离与地理距离没有显著性相关的结果一致.进一步分析表明两种猕猴桃的遗传多样性和居群遗传结构不仅受其广域分布、远交、晚期分化等生活史特性的影响,同时还与猕猴桃的染色体基数高(x=29)、倍性复杂和种间杂交等因素密切相关,其中两种猕猴桃的共享祖先多态性和同域分布种间杂交基因渗透对两猕猴桃的居群遗传结构产生了重要影响.     

中华猕猴桃和美味猕猴桃自然居群遗传结构及其种间杂交渐渗

 利用9对SSR引物对中华猕猴桃（Actinidia chinensis）和美味猕猴桃（A. deliciosa）两近缘种的5个同域分布复合体和各自1个非同域分布居群进行了遗传多样性、居群遗传结构的分析以及种间杂交渐渗的探讨。结果表明：1）两物种共有等位基因比例高达81.13%,物种特有等位基因较少（中华猕猴桃：13.27%,美味猕猴桃：5.61%）,但共享等位基因表型频率在两近缘种间存在差异,而且与各同域复合体中两物种样本的交错程度或间距存在关联;2）两种猕猴桃均具有极高遗传多样性,美味猕猴桃的遗传多样性（H_o＝0 .749, PIC＝0.818）都略高于中华猕猴桃（H_o＝0.686,PIC＝0.799）;3）两猕 猴桃物种均具有较低的Nei’s居群遗传分化度,但AMOVA分析结果揭示种内异域居群间（F_ST=0.091 5）和同域复合体种间（F_ST=0.111 5）均存在一定程度的遗传分化;中华猕猴桃居群遗传分化（G_ST=0.086; F_ST=0.212 1）高于美味猕猴桃（G_ST= 0.080;F_ST=0.142 0）;4）同域分布复合体两物种间的遗传分化（G_ST=0.020）低于物种内异域居群间的遗传分化（中华猕猴桃：G_ST=0.086; 美味猕猴桃：G_ST=0.080）,同域复合体物种间的基因流（N_m＝7.89 -29.75）远远高于 同种异域居群间（中华猕猴桃：N_m =2.663; 美味猕猴桃：N_m=2.880）; 5）居群UPGMA聚类揭示在同一地域的居群优先聚类,个体聚类结果显示多数个体聚在各自居群组内,但各地理居群并不按地理距离的远近聚类,这与Mantel相关性检测所揭示的居群间遗传距离与地理距离没有显著性相关的结果一致。进一步分析表明两种猕猴桃的遗传多样性和居群遗传结构不仅受其广域分布、远交、晚期分化等生活史特性的影响,同时还与猕猴桃的染色体基数高 (x=29)、倍性复杂和种间杂交等因素密切相关,其中两种猕猴桃的共享祖先多态性和同域分布种间杂交基因渗透对两猕猴桃的居群遗传结构产生了重要影响。     

猕猴桃属植物的cpSSR遗传多样性及其同域分布物种的杂交渐渗与同塑

同域分布的近缘物种常常发生杂交而导致种间基因渐渗, 从而对相关物种的自然居群遗传结构产生重要影响, 近缘种间的杂交渐渗已成为进化生物学和保护生物学关注的热点。本研究采用8对cpSSR引物对我国西部高原台地向中东部丘陵平原过渡地带同域重叠分布的猕猴桃属(Actinidia)7个物种的自然居群遗传多样性、居群遗传结构和同域分布种间遗传分化进行了检测。结果表明: (1)在6个多态性位点检测到18个等位基因形成的42个单倍型, 尽管各单倍型间显示了复杂的网状进化关系, 但还是具有明显的物种特异性; (2)各物种有丰富的cpSSR遗传多样性, 但种间存在较大差异, 绵毛猕猴桃(Actinidia fulvicoma var. lanata)的遗传多样性水平最高(P = 62.50%, h_T = 0.173, H_T = 0.897), 美味猕猴桃(A. deliciosa)的最低(P = 37.5％, h_T = 0.041, H_T = 0.516); (3)尽管不同物种的居群分化程度存在较大差异, 但种内居群间存在明显分化(G_ST为0.319–0.780, F_ST为0.401–0.695), 居群间的基因流不足(N_m为0.219–0.747<1); 其中以美味猕猴桃的居群遗传分化度最高(G_ST = 0.780, F_ST = 0.695); (4)遗传分化系数G_ST(unordered alleles)与N_ST(ordered alleles)无显著差异, 揭示本研究的大多数猕猴桃属物种不存在系统地理结构, 与用Mantel检验得出的居群遗传距离和地理距离不存在显著性相关的结果一致; (5)除了中华/美味猕猴桃复合体(A. chinensis / A. deliciosa complex)的湖北五峰(HW)和广西资源(GZ)两个同域复合居群外, 同域分布的物种间遗传分化强烈(F_ST为0.476–0.990), 与UPGMA聚类时多数居群按各自物种聚类的结果一致。进一步分析表明, 中华/美味猕猴桃复合体近缘种间存在明显的共祖多态性和杂交渐渗现象, 近缘种植株分布的交错程度以及是否存在亚居群结构对杂交渐渗存在着重要影响。亲缘关系较远的物种间杂交渐渗事件稀少, 但存在个别同塑事件。本研究结果有助于进一步了解猕猴桃属植物自然居群cpDNA的遗传特性和渐渗杂交进化模式, 为我国猕猴桃野生种质资源保育及可持续开发利用提供基础数据和科学依据。     

海南岛油茶种质资源遗传多样性的SRAP分析

为了解海南岛油茶(Camellia oleifera)种质资源的遗传多样性,采用SRAP分子标记,对海南岛油茶主要分布区的31个居群进行了遗传多样性和亲缘关系分析。结果表明,海南岛油茶资源的遗传多样性低,物种水平的多态性百分率(PPB)为98.30%,Nei’s基因多样性(H)为0.222 8,Shannon信息指数(I)为0.353 8;居群水平的PPB=40.96%,观测等位基因数(Na)为1.409 6,有效等位基因数(Ne)为1.237 1, H=0.138 5, I=0.208 3,这与海南岛油茶丰富的表型多样性水平不一致。海南岛油茶资源遗传分化较大,居群间基因交流有限,不同居群间的遗传分化指数(Gst)为0.380,基因流(Nm)为0.813 91。遗传变异主要发生在居群内,有38.05%的变异存在居群间,61.95%存在于居群内。遗传距离为0.022 6～0.276 4,平均为0.107 7,居群间的亲缘关系较近。UPGMA聚类分析表明,在遗传距离为0.11处,可将31个油茶居群聚为6类,表现出明显的行政区域性,而与地理距离关系不大。因此,海南岛油茶资源遗传多样性低,亲缘关系近可能导致自交或近交不亲和,可能是海南油茶林分花量大而结实低的主要内在原因。     

油茶栽培历史与长江流域油茶遗传资源

普通油茶(Camellia oleifera)是我国第一大木本油料作物。普通油茶作为油料作物的栽培历史, 现存确切记载不到1,000年, 长江流域可能是最早栽培油茶的地区之一。普通油茶的野生近缘种是油茶育种宝贵的遗传资源。普通油茶属于山茶科山茶属(Camellia)油茶组(Sect. Oleifera), 其野生近缘种应包括山茶属油茶组和短柱茶组(Sect. Paracamellia)的物种, 但油茶组和短柱茶组的划分仍有争议, 物种间的系统发育关系仍不清楚。油茶组和短柱茶组是山茶属中多倍体出现频率最高的类群, 而且存在突出的种内多倍性现象, 人工选择和种间杂交可能在其中起到促进作用。长江流域是普通油茶的主产区, 也是最主要的野生普通油茶分布区, 拥有丰富的野生普通油茶遗传资源。本研究统计了山茶属油茶组和短柱茶组物种的分布地, 并与野生普通油茶的潜在分布区进行了比较。分析结果显示, 长江流域与珠江流域的分水岭——南岭、苗岭及附近地区是油茶组和短柱茶组物种多样性最高的地区, 同时也是野生普通油茶潜在的高适生区, 可能是普通油茶及其野生近缘种潜在的种间杂交带。物种多样性从南向北呈下降趋势, 可能反映了从南向北的扩散方向。普通油茶及其野生近缘种间的潜在杂交带可能蕴含着丰富的遗传多样性, 为选择育种提供了天然的育种场, 应对这些地区优先开展研究和保护, 挖掘与利用有重要经济价值的遗传资源。     

中国特有濒危树种毛红椿核心和边缘居群的遗传多样性

选用8对多态的微卫星引物, 研究了毛红椿(Toona ciliata var. pubescens)核心居群和边缘居群的遗传多样性。研究结果显示, 边缘居群的观察等位基因数和有效等位基因数并不比核心居群低, 甚至更高。普通广布和稀有地方等位基因在所有居群中均有分布, 而普通地方和稀有广布等位基因分别仅在5个和3个居群中有分布。从4种类型等位基因总数上看, 边缘居群高于核心居群, 特别是边缘居群的稀有地方等位基因数量明显多于核心居群。边缘居群的平均期望杂合度和观察杂合度都高于核心居群。核心居群间的基因分化系数为0.1520, 边缘居群间为0.3045, 边缘居群与核心居群的遗传分化差异达到显著水平。核心居群间基因流大于1, 而边缘居群间基因流小于1, 说明核心居群间基因交流频繁, 边缘居群由于片段化和地形影响, 基因流较小。Mantel检验结果显示, 居群间遗传距离与地理距离的相关性不显著, 说明地理距离对毛红椿居群遗传分化的影响不显著。     

小果油茶表型多样性分析

在小果油茶全分布区内,选择有代表性的18个居群为研究对象,对其种实、花及叶的23个表型性状进行统计分析,结果表明:小果油茶的居群内及居群间均存在广泛的表型变异,随环境的变化表现出较强的表型可塑性。小果油茶叶、花及种实形状大小存在显著相关关系,可以从中选择重要及关键的表型性状作为测定的主要依据。小果油茶表型性状与生态地理因子有一定的相关关系,且不同性状受地理生态因子影响也不同,其中花性状最大,而种实和叶相对较小。UPGMA聚类结果表明,18个小果油茶居群可分为4个类群,且按较明显的地理区域特征进行聚类。从系统聚类图和主成分排序图比较来看,绝大多数居群在2种聚类方式中保持一致,说明二者均能较好地区分小果油茶不同居群的亲缘关系,为小果油茶的种质资源收集和良种选育奠定基础。

基于微卫星标记探讨同域分布竹蝗间的基因渐渗

竹蝗是我国竹林的重要害虫。同域分布物种间基因渐渗方面的研究较少,针对竹蝗属的尚未见报道。本文应用5对微卫星标记检测了安徽金寨县青脊竹蝗和黄脊竹蝗同域分布种群的遗传多样性、遗传结构及种群间的渐渗。结果表明,5对微卫星引物检测到的等位基因共60个,每个位点拥有等位基因10～13个,平均为12个;各位点的期望杂合度(He)范围为0.711～0.885,观测杂合度(Ho)均为1。每个位点都具有较高的多态性,平均多态信息含量(PIC)为0.799,说明这些位点都存在着丰富的遗传信息。在整体水平上,所有微卫星位点对之间为显著的连锁不平衡。同域分布的黄脊竹蝗和青脊竹蝗种群个体间发生了基因渐渗,且基因流从黄脊竹蝗转移到青脊竹蝗。最后,讨论并提出了对竹蝗属基因渐渗深入研究的建议。

New amino-dithiaphospholanes and phosphoramidodithioites and their rhodium and iridium complexes

New sulfur derivatives of phosphoramidite ligands were synthesized and the impact of the sulfur unit on the spectroscopic properties of their rhodium and iridium complexes was investigated. The new ligands Bn₂NPSCH₂CH₂S^a(P-S^a) (Bn = benzyl, 4), Bn₂NPSCHCHS^a(CH₂)₃C^aH₂(P-S^a)(C^a-S^a) (6) and Bn₂NP(4-XC₆H₄OMe)₂ (X = S, 7a; X = O, 7b) were converted to the rhodium and iridium complexes trans-[Rh(CO)Cl(L)₂] (L = 4, 6, 7), [RhCl(COD)(L)] (L = 4, 6, 7), [IrCl(COD)(7a)] and [IrCl₂Cp∗(6)]. For comparison, some phosphoramidite complexes of these formulations also were synthesized. The new metal complexes were spectroscopically analyzed. For the carbonyl complexes, the ν_CO IR stretching frequencies were lower than for the corresponding phosphite and phosphoramidite ligands. The ¹J_PRh coupling constants for the rhodium complexes with the new ligands were also smaller than for the respective phosphoramidite and phosphite complexes. Finally, the ¹J_PSe coupling constants of the selenides of the new ligands were lower than those of the phosphoramidite ligands but higher than for PPh₃. The spectroscopic data reveal that the new thio ligands 4, 6 and 7a are more electron donating than phosphites and phosphoramidites but less electron donating than PPh₃.     

Astrocytes and Synaptosomes Transport and Metabolize Lactate and Acetate Differently

Astrocytes transport the monocarboxylate acetate, but synaptosomes do not. The reason for this is unknown, because both preparations express monocarboxylate transporters (MCT). The transport and metabolism of lactate, another monocarboxylate, was examined in these two preparations, and the results were compared to those for acetate. Lactate transport is more rapid in astrocytes than in synaptosomes, but of lower affinity (Kms of 17 and 4 mM, respectively). Lactate (0.2 mM) is metabolized to CO2 more rapidly in synaptosomes than in astrocytes (rates of 0.37 and 0.07 nmol x mg protein(-1) x min(-1), respectively). The reason for this is unclear, but cellular differences in lactate dehydrogenase isotype expression may be involved. Acetate is metabolized to CO2 more rapidly in astrocytes than in synaptosomes (rates of 0.43 and 0.02 nmol x mg protein(-1) x min(-1), respectively). This is likely due to cellular differences in the expression of monocarboxylate transporter subtypes.     

Rapporteur report: Basics and technology and metrology and standards

The first and second sessions of the Workshop focussed on the basics of ultrasound and infrasound, their applications in both industry and medicine, and metrology and protection standards for ultrasound applications.     

Relative and combined effects of ethanol and protein deficiency on strontium and barium bone content and fecal and urinary excretion

To elucidate accumulation of minerals in human iliac arteries with aging, the content of minerals was analyzed by inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry. Bilateral common, internal, and external iliac arteries of 16 men and 8 women, ranging ages from 65 to 93 yr, were examined. It was found that an extremely high accumulation of calcium and phosphorus occurred in the common iliac artery at old age, being higher than that of the internal and external iliac arteries. It should be noted that the accumulation of calcium and phosphorus is the highest in the common iliac artery among the human arteries examined to date. Regarding sexual differences, the content of calcium and phosphorus in the common and internal iliac arteries was higher in women than in men, whereas their content in the external iliac artery was lower in women than in men.     

Prostaglandin and thromboxane production by human and guinea-pig macrophages and leucocytes

The ability of partially purified human and guinea-pig haematogenous cell populations, when cultured in vitro, to metabolise arachidonic acid (AA) has been studied. Supernatants from 24 hour cell culture have been subjected to analysis for products of AA metabolism by gas chromatography with electron-capture detection.The cell types studied were human peripheral blood monocytes (both glass adherent and non-adherent), neutrophils, eosinophils and leukemic leucocytes; thoracic duct lymphocytes and lung alveolar macrophages. From the guinea-pig, induced and non-induced macrophage or neutrophil enriched peritoneal exudate populations, lymph node cells, peritoneal eosinophils and peripheral blood platelets were examined. Supernatants were assayed for the presence of PGE₂, PGD₂, PGF_2α, TXB₂ and 6-keto-PGF_1α. In all types studied PGE₂ and TXB₂ were the major products formed. The identification of PGE₂ and TXB₂ was confirmed by GC/MS with multiple ion monitoring.The results have been compared with other reports and their possible significance discussed in relation to the proposed role of prostaglandins as mediators and modulators in immunopathology.     

Chemokines and cytokines: axis and allies in asthma and allergy

Allergic asthma can be precipitated by many factors. For the atopic person, fungus, pollen, dust mites, cockroach antigens, and diesel exhaust are all agents that may trigger an allergic attack. Cytokines and chemokines are integral mediators of fungal asthma. From the earliest time points, they recruit and activate the cells required for the clearance of fungus as well as being critical factors involved in the immunopathology of this disease. In the final analysis, it is clear that these mediators can act to the benefit or the detriment of the host.     

Oxidation and nitration of ribonuclease and lysozyme by peroxynitrite and myeloperoxidase

In spite of the many studies on protein modifications by reactive species, knowledge about the products resulting from the oxidation of protein-aromatic residues, including protein-derived radicals and their stable products, remains limited. Here, we compared the oxidative modifications promoted by peroxynitrite and myeloperoxidase/hydrogen peroxide/nitrite in two model proteins, ribonuclease (6Tyr) and lysozyme (3Tyr/6Trp). The formation of protein-derived radicals and products was higher at pH 5.4 and 7.4 for myeloperoxidase and peroxynitrite, respectively. The main product was 3-nitro-Tyr for both proteins and oxidants. Lysozyme rendered similar yields of nitro-Trp, particularly when oxidized by peroxynitrite. Hydroxylated and dimerized products of Trp and Tyr were also produced, but in lower yields. Localization of the main modified residues indicates that peroxynitrite decomposes to radicals within the proteins behaving less specifically than myeloperoxidase. Nitrogen dioxide is emphasized as an important protein modifier.
