The inheritance of host plant resistance and its effect on the relative infection efficiency for leaf blast was studied in the crosses IR36/CO39 (partially resistant × highly susceptible) and IR36/IR64 (both partially resistant). On the natural scale, gene action appeared multiplicative. After log transformation, additive effects described most of the genetic variation in the cross IR36/CO39, while additive and dominance effects were about equal in magnitude in the cross IR36/IR64. Dominance was towards increased resistance. No transgressive segregation occurred in the cross IR36/CO39. The number of genes that reduce lesion number was estimated to be zero in CO39 and five or more in IR36. The cross IR36/IR64 showed transgressive segregation in both directions, and IR36 and IR64 each contain at least one gene that is not present in the other cultivar. The heritabilities (narrow sense) in the F2 were low (range 0.06–0.16), while narrow sense heritabilities based on F3 lines were much higher (range 0.41–0.68). Lesion numbers in F3 lines were reasonably correlated with those in F5 progenies derived from the same F2 plant (r was±0.6 in both crosses). Partial resistance can be effectively improved by selecting the most resistant plants from the most resistant F3 lines. 相似文献

Primary structure analysis of the four river buffalo -globin chains showed that haplotypes A and B differ from each other by a substitution at codon 64 that may encode Ala or Asn. The A haplotype encodes two -globin chains, I1 and II3, which differ at positions 129 and 131: I1 has 64 Ala, 129 Phe, 131 Asn; II3 has 64 Ala, 129 Leu, 131 Ser. The B haplotype encodes two -globin chains, I2 and II4, which differ at positions 10 and 11: I2 has 10 Ile, 11 Gln, 64 Asn; II4 has 10 Val, 11 Lys, 64 Asn. Apart from the Ala/Asn polymorphism at position 64, amino acid substitutions in allelic and nonallelic -globin chains seem to have arisen by single point mutations. Detection of electrophoretically silent mutations due to neutral amino acid substitutions and their influence on the isoelectric point are discussed. Furthermore, primary structures of river buffalo -globin chains are compared to other species of the Bovidae family to suggest evolutionary events that have characterized the amino acid substitutions of river buffalo hemoglobin. 相似文献

Maximum inhibition of Glycine max, cv. Essex seed germination occurred at 10 g/ml following 72 hr imbibition in constant light. Seeds imbided 108 hr in constant darkness at this concentration showed a 20% rise in germination over that of the control. Imbibition of G. max, cv. Williams seeds in either light or dark for 96 hr did not suppress germination. Imbibition of Essex seeds in either light or dark at 2.5 through 10 g/ml stimulated root elongation except for 10 g/ml at 96 hr (light). Maximum inhibition of Williams root elongation under constant light was at 48 and 72 hr with 10 g/ml. Statistically significant differences in cotyledon, leaf and stem lengths between non-treated (NT) and treated (T) seedlings were not found except for Williams stem length at 2.5 / ml. Root elongation was stimulated 1.2- and 1.1-folds, respectively, at 5.0 (Essex) and 2.5 (Williams) g/ml. Toxin at 2.5 through 10.0 g/ml did not markedly alter either cotyledon or leaf widths with the exception of Williams leaf width at 2.5 g/ml. Medium supplementation with 2.5 through 10.0 g/ml resulted in cotyledon, leaf and root weight enhancements for Essex seedlings. Stem weight was not markedly affected. An 18% rise in Williams cotyledon weight above that of the control was seen at 2.5 g/ml. Williams leaf weights were increased 1.75- and 1.25-folds, respectively, at 2.5 and 10.0 g/ml. Aflatoxin B1, at 2.5 g/ml promoted Williams stem and root elongation 1.20- and 1.09-folds, respectively. Most of the radioactivity from 65Zn-ZnCl2 recovered within organs was found within Essex roots for both T and NT seedlings. A higher amount of radioactivity was recovered within roots at each toxin concentration than was without toxin. However, this was not statistically significant. Significant differences in the distribution of radioactivity within roots between NT and T Williams seedlings were not observed. Generally, AFB1 failed to affect significantly these two varieties of soybeans based on the tests relating to germination, growth and radiolabel uptake. 相似文献

Summary Fragments of the E. coli chromosome that carry the dnaB groPB534 or groPB612 alleles have been cloned into a cosmid vector. The resulting recombinant plasmids contained the genes uvrA, groP (B534 or B612), and lexA. Further subcloning into high copy number plasmids, during which the uvrA and lexA genes were removed successively, yielded a groPB534 and groPB612 DNA fragment of about 2.4 kb each. Both fragments contained an overlapping 1.8 kb segment of DNA in which the sites of all restriction enzymes tested were identical. The size of these dnaB gene fragments were further delimited by deletion analysis.In E. coli groPB534 in which wild-type and A mutants do not replicate (Georgopoulos and Herskowitz 1971) phage replication is rescued if the strain contains the groPB534 gene on high copy number plasmids. On the contrary, in E. coli groPB612, which is temperature-sensitive for its groP character, replication of and A is abolished at 30° C if the strain contains the groPB612 recombinant plasmid. On the other hand, replication of B remains unaffected whether or not the groP strains harbor the isogenic dnaB gene-containing plasmid. The results suggest that within the cell not only the quality but also the relative amounts of dnaB and P protein are crucial for phage replication. 相似文献

The occurrence of adenosine 5-triphosphate-3-diphosphate-synthesizing activity was detected in five strains of actinomycetes; Streptomyces morookaensis, Streptomyces aspergilloides, Streptomyces hachijoensis, Actinomyces violascens and Streptoverticillium septatum, out of 825 strains of actinomycetes, bacteria, fungi and imperfecti. Purine nucleotide pyrophosphotransferase were extracellularly excreted associating with the cell growth, and were purified partially or to apparent homogeniety from the culture filtrate. The enzymes are a monomeric protein with a molecular weight of 18000–26000 and synthesize adenosine, guanosine and inosine 5-phosphate (mono, di or tri)-3-diphosphate such as pApp, ppApp, pppApp, pGpp, ppGpp, pppGpp and pppIpp by transferring a pyrophosphoryl group from the 5-position of ATP, dATP and pppApp to the 3-position of purine nucleotides in the presence of a divalent cation and in alkaline state.Abbreviations pppApp

Salmon gonadotropin (GTH II) is a heterodimeric glycoprotein hormone ( and II subunits), serving as a maturational GTH, and is produced in a specific gonadotropic cell-type (GTH II-cells) containing small granules and large globules. In trout GTH II-cells, double immunolabeling for the - and II-subunits shows that colocalization of the - and II-immunolabeling is confined to the small granules, indicating storage of functional GTH II. On the other hand, -immunolabeling is absent in the large globules, even though II labeling is abundant throughout the period of seasonal gametogenesis. The -specific antiserum recognizes the intact -subunit as well as the reduced and deglycosylated -subunits by immunoblotting. These results indicate that an accumulation of the II-subunit is specifically generated in the large globules of these cells. In fact, with sexual maturity, the quantity of II-subunits becomes elevated in the trout pituitary due to a marked increase in GTH II-cells containing many large globules. However, the derivation and function of the large globules and the fate of their contained II-subunits remains unknown. 相似文献

Summary The content of free amino acids was determined in erythrocytes of adult Leghorn (Lg, White Rock (WR) and Cornish (Cr) hens, bred under identical conditions. The concentration of total amino acids was twice as high in the erythrocytes as in plasma, amounting to 396 m/100 ml, 424 m/100 ml and 475m/100 ml in White Rock, Cornish and Leghorn hens, respectively.Significant differences were found in the ratio of basic amino acids to acidic amino acids. These values were 0.76, 1.75 and 3.19 in White Rick, Leghorn and Cornish hens, respectively; in the plasma of all 3 breeds the ratio was 1. Statistically significant interbreed differences were expressed more distinctly in erythrocyte than in plasma amino acid concentrations. For absolute concentrations the differences were significant in the case of 9 amino acids. 相似文献

Summary Thirty-one toria genotypes were compared with three well-established cultivars, Ludhiana Composite-2, K-1 and TCSU-2 (standard testers). The genotypes, which were almost identical to a standard tester in response to environmental variations and which also had other desirable characteristics, were considered to be acceptable for commercial cultivation. Using this criterion, TCSU-7, TH-5 and TH-4 were found to be acceptable for commercial cultivation. TH-4 and TCSU-7 were found superior to TH-5 if r2 can be considered as a measure of the agronomical manipulations expected in environmental variations. 相似文献

Summary In a lactic acid fermentation by Streptococcus faecalis, the specific consumption rate of glucose (v) and the specific production rate of lactic acid () were represented by the following simple equations as functions of the specific growth rate (): 1/=(1/) + 1/ = (1/) + By use of data from a batch culture, these two equations were derived from enzyme kinetics of the product inhibition. These equations were successfully applied to the results of batch culture and chemostat culture. In addition, calculation of ATP yield by these equations agreed with the experimental results better than the conventional Leudeking-Piret type equation, which includes two terms associated with growth and not with growth.

Summary Chris wheat possessed genes Sr5, Sr7a, Sr8a, Sr9g and Sr12. W3746, derived from the cross Chris/Baart, possessed Sr7a and Sr12. The response conferred by Sr7a was influenced by the genetic background. Although Sr7a or Sr12 alone conferred no observable resistance upon adult plants, the adult resistances of Chris and W3746 to predominant pathotypes appeared to be associated with the interaction of Sr7a and Sr12, or genes at closely linked loci. 相似文献

A novel syrup containing neofructo-oligosaccharides was produced from sucrose (Brix 70) by whole cells of Penicillium citrinum. The efficiency of fructo-oligosaccharides production was more than 55% and those of the main carbohydrate components, 1-kestose (Fruf 21Fruf 21 Glc), nystose (Fruf 21Fruf 21 Fruf 21 Glc) and neokestose (Fruf 26 Glc12 Fruf), were 22, 14 and 11%, respectively. 相似文献

Summary The XmnI genotype at the apolipoprotein A-I locus was heterozygous in a boy with partial deletion of the long arm of chromosome 11, del(11)(q23.3qter). The apolipoprotein A-I gene, previously assigned to chromosome region 11q23q24, has been more specifically localized to 11q23 by excluding the region 11q24qter. 相似文献

Genic variation was examined with starch and polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at 14 loci in 12 populations of Peromyscus maniculatus nubiterrae from a small part of the Appalachians in eastern Tennessee and western North Carolina. Polymorphism was observed at eight loci with no significant correlations between frequency of common genotypes or alleles and altitude. Average individual heterozygosity (\-H) values were low for P. maniculatus whether using only slow evolving loci (mean = 3.0%) or both slow and fast evolving loci (mean = 4.9%). No significant correlation was present between altitude and \-H. Interlocality variation of \-H was as great in this study as previously reported for P. maniculatus over larger geographic areas. Rogers' coefficients of genetic similarity of paired combinations of populations based on slow evolving loci (range of 0.941 to 0.997) or based on slow and fast evolving loci (range of 0.858 to 0.974) showed all populations to be highly similar. Ranges of similarity values observed in the present study were as great as those previously reported for P. maniculatus over a larger geographic area. 相似文献

Summary A new method for measuring structural change in sets of species which have been subjected to natural or experimental perturbation is developed and is shown to be superior to static diversity and evenness measures for this purpose. Three parameters, H, J, and X;} are shown to provide necessary and sufficient information on the severity of a perturbation as well as the uniformity of its effect on all species in the set. When positive and negative changes in species abundance are considered separately, the method is sensitive to compensatory changes which are not detected by static measures.The parameters are then calculated for some data sets on polluted and unpolluted fish communities in second and third order streams from the Clemons Fork watershed in eastern Kentucky. Results indicate that H, the diversity of change over two sampling seasons, is high for perturbed and unperturbed systems, but J the eveness of change is lower for the communities which were polluted in the second sampling season. Severe pollution results in the suppression of most major fish species, whereas more moderate pollution results in a large number of compensatory changes. The biological basis for such an outcome is discussed, and the notion of these three parameters as the vital signs of a healthy ecosystem is presented. 相似文献

The activity of -amylase (EC 3.2.1.1) in mung bean (Vigna radiata (L.) Wilczek) cotyledons increased markedly in response to wounding. The changes in enzyme activity were in parallel with those in enzyme content. The level of -amylase mRNA also notably increased in wounded cotyledons and attained its maximum level during the period between 1 and 2 d after wounding. The level of mRNA for phenylalanine ammonia-lyase, which is one of the well-characterized stress-inducible proteins, also increased after wounding, but the increase in mRNA level was faster than that of -amylase mRNA. On the other hand, the content of mRNA for actin, a housekeeping protein, was almost the same in wounded and unwounded cotyledons. The increase in -amylase mRNA level in wounded cotyledons was severely inhibited by -amanitin and cordycepin. -Amylase expression in the first leaves of mung-bean seedlings was also induced by wounding.Abbreviations PAL

Comparative structure-function studies have been carried out for -conotoxin GI acting on nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (AChR) from mammalian muscles and from the electric organ of the Torpedo californica ray and for -conotoxin ImI, which targets the neuronal a7 AChR. A series of analogs has been prepared for this purpose: chemically modified derivatives, including a covalently linked dimer of GI, as well as analogs wherein one or several amino acid residues have been changed using solid-phase peptide synthesis. The activity of all compounds was assessed in competition with radioiodinated and/or tritiated -conotoxin GI for binding to the membrane-bound AChR of Torpedo californica. Binding of radioiodinated -conotoxin GI dimer was also monitored directly, revealing the largest, as compared to all other analogues, difference in the affinity between the two binding sites in the receptor (KD 11 and 1200 nM). Comparison of binding data with the results of CD measurements point to important role of the spatial organization of the -conotoxin second loop in manifestation of their muscle or neuronal specificity. 相似文献

Thidiazuron [(TDZ)N-phenyl-N-1,2,3-thidiazol-5-ylurea] at 750 M was applied to buds of apple trees to determine if it could substitute for the chilling requirement to induce bud break. Shoots of cv. Anna (low chill), Delicious cv. Redchief (medium chill), and Northern Spy (high chill) were untreated, treated with TDZ prior to chilling (before-chill), and treated with TDZ at various intervals after the accumulation of specific amounts of chilling (after-chill). Shoots were stored in a cold room at 4°C. TDZ applied prior to chilling reduced the chill unit (CU) requirement (1 CU = 1 h at 4°C) for the promotion of bud break on 1-year-old shoots of Anna and Northern Spy and 1- and 2-year-old wood of Delicious. TDZ applied after-chill promoted bud break only for Anna and buds on 2-year-old wood of Delicious. While accumulating CUs, untreated buds or buds treated with TDZ on 1-year Delicious and Northern Spy did not respond to the cold treatment even after 1848 h of CU accumulation. For all three cultivars, TDZ treatment was more effective in promoting bud break when applied before the initiation of chilling.The use of a company or product name does not constitute an endorsement by USDA or the University of Maryland nor imply approval to the exclusion of other suitable products. 相似文献

Summary Genetic analysis for leaf rust reaction of two widely adapted cultivars, Sonalika and WL 711, has been done using 21 near isogenic Lr lines and rust culture IL004 — avirulent on the two cultivars and all the Lr lines used. The segregation pattern in the F2 generation indicated the presence of a recessive gene in Sonalika and of a dominant gene in WL 711. These genes in cultivars Sonalika and WL 711 have been identified as Lr 11 and Lr 13, respectively. Gene Lr 13 is no longer effective in WL 711 but it continues to give field resistance in the backgrounds of Chris, Prelude and Thatcher. There has been no significant change in the virulence spectrum of the leaf rust pathogen in India with the release of WL 711. High susceptibility of WL 711 seems to be due to the evolution of more aggressive forms of the pathogen to this cultivar. The gene Lr 11, which behaves as a recessive in Sonalika, was effective against leaf rust when this cultivar was released. The high susceptibility of Sonalika is probably due to an increase in the frequency of race 77 virulent on Lr 11. Lr 11 has shown a dominance reversal in the background of Sonalika. Present results suggest that interaction of resistance genes with the background genotype must be studied for their effective use in breeding programme. 相似文献

Summary A mutant strain of Rhodococcus equi accumulates three metabolites from the androst-4-ene-3,17-dione or from its degradation intermediate, 3a-H-4(3'-propionic acid)-7a-methylhexahydro-1,5-indanedione (MEPHIP). These three metabolites are: 3a-H-4a(3'-propionic acid)-5-hydroxy-7a-methylhexahydro-1-indanone--lactone (HIL); 3a-H-4(3'-trans acrylic acid)-5-hydroxy-7a-methylhexahydro-1-indanone (2'-5-hydroxy-MEPHIP); and 3a-H-4(3'-hydroxy-3'-propionic acid)-5-hydroxy-7a-methylhexahydro-1-indanone (3'-hydroxy-HIL). The behaviour of this mutant allows us to propose a pathway for degradation of the intermediates, methylperhydroindanone propionates. However, during this degradation, the side-chain propionate was eliminated by a-oxidation mechanism.

present in unfertilized Salmonidae fish eggs, and glycoproteins bearing oligo/polymers of deaminated neuraminic acids (KDN) found in the vitelline envelope of the eggs and ovarian fluid. We report the preparation and characterization of a monoclonal antibody specifically recognizing oligo/polymers of KDN sequences in glycoproteins and its application in immunohistochemistry. Fusion of spleen cells from a BALB/c mouse immunized with a KDN-rich glycoprotein (KDN-gp) containing (8KDN2)

6(KDN23Gal13GlNAc13) GalNAc1 residues, with mouse myeloma cells yielded a hybrid cell line producing a monoclonal antibody that bound to KDN-gp, but not to KDN-gp depleted of KDN residues. The specificity of the monoclonal antibody, designated mAb.kdn8kdn, was determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay using KDN-gp samples that varied in KDN content. These antigens were prepared by the selective removal of KDN residues from the native KDN-gp. The mAb.kdn8kdn reacted most strongly with the intact KDN-gp and less strongly with KDN-gp samples containing decreased numbers of KDN residues. The mAb.kdn8kdn was shown specifically to recognize the 28-linked oligo/polyKDN sequences, (8KDN2)
