甜菊组织培养物中叶绿体的超微结构与脱分代

含有叶绿体的甜菊（Ｓｔｅｖｉａｒｅｂａｕｄｉａｎａ）愈伤组织细胞转移至新鲜培养基后,导致光合片层的逐渐减少或消失,最后叶绿体脱分化形成原质体样的结构。超微结构观察表明,光合片层的减少或消失与降解及叶绿体分裂特别是不均等缢缩分裂而致基质组分和类囊体膜稀释有关。这一过程并不完全同步,一些质体含有少量正常的片展而另一些质体含有退化的片层甚至片展结构完全消失。细胞的一个明显特点是细胞器大多聚集在细胞核附近,细胞质增加并向细胞中央伸出细胞质丝。同时可观察到原质体。培养７ｄ后,许多细胞呈分生状态,细胞质富含细胞器,充满了细胞的大部分空间。此时细胞中的质体大多呈原质体状态。在细胞生长的稳定期,质体内膜组织成基质基粒片层,同时质体核糖体增加。文中讨论了高度液泡化细胞脱分化与细胞中叶绿体脱分化的关系。     

转PSAG12-ipt基因水稻叶片中叶绿体超微结构的变化

研究了转PSAG12-ipt基因水稻和对照植株发育过程中叶片中的叶绿体结构的变化。发现水稻发育到乳熟期,转基因植株叶片中的叶绿体与对照植株开始出现明显的差别。对照叶绿体中嗜锇体体积增大,数目增多,大部分基粒的类囊体膜膨胀、裂解,片层结构解体。而转基因植株叶片中的叶绿体结构变化不大,嗜锇体相对有所增加,但体积较小,大部分基粒类囊体片层结构仍然排列整齐,少数类囊体垛叠化丧失。     

油菜叶片及其脱分化和再分化中质体的电镜观察

我们用电镜观察了油菜叶片植株再生中质体的超微结构变化。在油菜叶肉细胞中,叶绿体的基粒,基质片层发育良好,偶尔有淀粉粒。在来自叶片的愈伤组织细胞中,质体体积变小,类囊体已经消失或部分消失,有的质体含有淀粉粒,但很少有质体小球。经培养分化后的愈伤组织,特别是在表层细胞中,质体数量急剧增多,形态变化很大,贮藏淀粉明显减少。基质内已有泡状或管状结构。有的质体已出现长的基质片层,但未见到基粒;质体中常有质体球。由此可见,质体是一个十分敏感的细胞器,它的变化与细胞分化有关,变化最大的部分是片层系统,贮藏淀粉,质体小球。片层系统中尤以基粒片层变化最为显著。     

叶绿体膜的结构与功能Ⅴ.不同倍体小麦叶绿体膜在生物发生中的超微结构变化

观察了二、四、六倍体小麦和八倍体小黑麦叶绿体膜在生物发生中的超微结构变化。发现不同倍体小麦叶绿体膜除有近似的生物发生过程以外,在膜的发育速度和组装程度上均有显著的差异。最引人注目的是四倍体硬粒小麦和八倍体小黑麦质体的被膜上,频繁出现向外隆起形成具有多层环形双脂膜层结构的“芽孢状小体”,非常类似原核生物的光合膜系。在黄化幼苗转绿1小时后,其被膜仅往外隆起1—2层双脂膜的小凸起;转绿4小时后,已成长为具有多层双脂膜层结构的“芽孢状小体”;至22小时后消失(或脱落)。根据这一变化以及前质体中邻接“小体”的区域同时出现有非常明显的 DNA 区,推断这些变化很可能是叶绿体增殖的一种方式。     

环境激素DBP对拟南芥体外培养叶片超微结构的影响

报道了酞酸酯类化合物DBP对拟南芥离体培养叶片超微结构的影响。在DBP(1.0mg·L-1)处理第3天即观察到拟南芥叶片叶绿体的超微结构受到破坏。不同浓度的DBP长期处理植株(40d)出现叶片白化、节间短缩等异常现象。在0.01mg·L-1DBP处理40d植株的叶细胞中,叶绿体出现解体,破碎部分呈颗粒状,散落其间,但细胞结构完整;0.1mg·L-1DBP处理后引起叶绿体的进一步解体,叶绿体中类囊体基粒和片层结构解体,细胞出现空洞现象,其它细胞器很少观察到;1.0mg·L-1DBP和2.0mg·L-1DBP处理植株叶片叶绿体中类囊体基粒和片层结构破碎,叶绿体结构也解体,细胞中其它细胞器数目极少。

花粒期光照对夏玉米光合特性和叶绿体超微结构的影响

在大田条件下,以夏玉米品种‘登海605’为试验材料,研究花粒期不同光照强度(正常光照、开花至收获期遮阴和开花至收获期增光)对夏玉米叶片光合、荧光性能和叶绿体超微结构的影响.结果表明:与对照相比,花粒期遮阴影响叶绿体排布及内部结构发育,基粒个数和基粒片层数均有不同程度减少,叶片的净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度、叶绿素含量下降,PSⅡ反应中心的实际光化学效率和最大光化学效率降低,非光化学淬灭系数数值增加,导致产量降低;增光后叶绿体结构良好,基粒片层排列紧致、清晰且数量增加,PSⅡ反应中心的实际光化学效率增加,净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度、叶绿素含量上升,叶片光合性能增强,产量增加.即花粒期遮阴破坏了夏玉米叶片叶绿体超微结构,降低了叶片光合能力,产量下降;花粒期增光增加了叶肉细胞中叶绿体的基粒和基粒片层,导致基粒片层排列紧密有序,有利于增加作物产量潜力.     

珊瑚豆果实成熟过程中叶绿体转化为杂色体的研究

珊瑚豆 (Solanum pseudo- capsicum var.diflorum (Vell.) Bitter)果实成熟过程中 ,果实颜色的变化和叶绿素含量降低及类胡萝卜素含量增长相符合。对果实中叶绿体转化为杂色体进行了电镜观察。早期绿色果实的特点是叶绿体具典型的基粒 -基粒间类囊体结构。在黄绿色果实时期叶绿体类囊体系统解体 ,代之以少数非叶绿素的单个类囊体和积累大的嗜锇的质体小球。质体转变为所谓的原质体。这表明叶绿体在果实成熟中的脱分化过程。当果实达到黄色阶段 ,这些质体所含的质体小球开始从中央形成质体小管的结构。最初质体小球中央变为半透明 ,认为是质体累积胡萝卜素的开始。随着质体小球的延长 ,小管从小球中伸出。这些小管围以电子致密的膜 ,中央是半透明的轴心。与此同时 ,在质体基质中出现一系列发育不同阶段的小泡 ,似乎是形成新的质体小球的过程。在成熟的橙色和橙红色果实中的杂色体中只包含无数小管和小的质体小球。质体小管在数量和长度上增长 ,充满成熟的杂色体。无数质体小球分布在小管之间的空间中。成熟杂色体从脱分化的原质体的重建是真正的再分化过程。可以作出结论 ,珊瑚豆果实叶绿体转化为杂色体实质上是一个脱分化和再分化过程     

墨兰幼叶和成熟叶不同部位叶绿体超微结构和光合作用

墨兰试管苗植株成熟叶片叶绿体基粒较发达,类囊本膜垛叠较紧密。幼叶叶绿体中少有亲锇颗粒,成熟叶的叶绿体中往往既有亲锇颗粒又有淀粉粒。幼叶中基粒数目比成熟叶的少,叶绿体也比成熟叶的小。幼叶的光合放氧速率比成熟叶的低。幼叶中叶尖部叶绿体最大而叶基部最小,但叶尖部的光合放氧速率比叶基部小。成熟叶中叶绿体大小及光合放氧速率区别不明显。通过对各部位叶绿素含量的测定发现,叶绿素含量与光合放氧速率之间没有正相关性     

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.
