杂交水稻和不育系种子的劣变与生理生化变化

杂交水稻和不育系种子在人工加速老化处理后,其发芽率、发芽指数和活力指数均比常规水稻种子下降迅速。在人工老化过程中,前者种子浸泡液的外渗氨基酸和钾离子含量均比后者高,游离的有机酸、氨基酸和脂肪酸含量增加的速度相似,均大于常规水稻种子。蛋白酶活性和可溶性蛋白质含量的增减,在易发生劣变种子与常规水稻种子之间均有显著差异。     

不同贮藏条件和发芽方法对羊草种子萌发的影响

贮藏条件(温度、水分和贮藏介质)和发芽方法(发芽床种类×播种方法)是影响羊草种子萌发的重要因素.研究了4种贮藏条件(4 ℃低温干贮、自然室温干贮和非盐碱土低温湿贮、盐碱土低温湿贮)、3种发芽床(滤纸、非盐碱土与盐碱土)和2种播种方法(表面与内部播种)对羊草种子发芽率的影响.结果表明,与室温干贮相比,低温干贮可以提高羊草种子的发芽速率和整齐度,但对最终发芽率没有显著影响.盐碱土低温湿贮显著降低羊草种子发芽率(28.8%);非盐碱土低温湿贮可显著提高羊草种子的发芽率(73.7%).6种组合发芽方法的发芽率大小和顺序依次为：非盐碱土表发芽法(89.3%)>纸间发芽法(68.0%)>纸上发芽法(64.0%)>非盐碱土内发芽法(61.3%)>盐碱土表发芽法(25.6%)>盐碱土内发芽法(6.0%).     

窄叶野碗豆种子的休眠与发芽特性

以青藏高原野豌豆属窄叶野碗豆(Vicia angustifolia)种子为材料,就其休眠类型、发芽对温度与水分的响应以及休眠破除方法进行了研究。结果显示:(1)窄叶野碗豆新鲜种子具有复合休眠特性,而贮藏种子仅具有物理休眠特性。(2)与贮藏种子相比,新鲜种子的发芽温度范围变窄,高温显著抑制其种子的发芽,在25℃条件下新鲜种子的发芽率仅为4%,而贮藏种子可达90%以上。(3)新鲜种子发芽对水分的要求较高,在-0.4 MPa以及10℃、15℃、20℃条件下,新鲜种子的发芽率分别为85%、55%、8%,而贮藏种子的发芽率分别为95%、91%、89%。(4)氟啶酮(FL)和赤霉素(GA3)对贮藏种子的发芽与发芽速率均无明显作用,但可显著提高新鲜种子的发芽速率;与贮藏种子相比,新鲜种子的发芽对脱落酸(ABA)的抑制作用更为敏感;除高浓度多效唑(PA)显著抑制新鲜种子的发芽外,其他浓度的PA对新鲜种子与贮藏种子均无显著影响。研究表明,脱落酸可能是引致窄叶野豌豆种子生理休眠的主要原因;硫酸及切破种皮处理均可破除贮藏种的物理休眠,其中硫酸处理20min效果最好。

旱生灌木岷谷木蓝种子的休眠与萌发特征

岷谷木蓝(Indigofera lenticellata)是横断山区干旱河谷广泛分布的豆科灌木.本文对其种子的休眠与萌发特征进行了研究.结果表明:岷谷木蓝种子具有物理休眠,其萌发困难的原因在于种皮的不透水性;种子的硬实比率高(85%),针刺种皮和沙摩处理能有效打破种子休眠,提高发芽率,其中沙摩7 h最为快速有效.岷谷木蓝种子发芽温度范围较广,10℃～30℃均可发芽,最适温度范围为20℃～30℃,低温不利于种子萌发.岷谷木蓝具有一定的抗旱性,在聚乙二醇6000(PEG)溶液模拟水分胁迫条件下,种子在25% PEG胁迫下仍能达到100%的发芽率,但水分胁迫对种子发芽有一定的延缓作用,发芽率和发芽速度降低,发芽周期和发芽准备期增长,发芽高峰期滞后.其中对于发芽能力检测的各项指标对水分胁迫的敏感性顺序为发芽指数>发芽势>发芽率.岷谷木蓝种子的发芽特征是对干旱河谷生存环境长期适应的结果.野外播种的适宜时间为4月初,并在播种前对种子进行7 h的沙摩处理.     

浓硫酸处理对海滨木槿10个家系种子萌发的影响

温度、光照和盐分对外来植物黄顶菊种子萌发的影响

对黄顶菊(Flaveria bidentis)种子的表面形态进行了扫描电镜观察,并从温度、光照、NaCl胁迫及浸种等方面对黄顶菊种子萌发特性进行了探讨.结果表明:黄顶菊种子喜高温,35℃下种子萌发迅速,且发芽率、发芽指数及活力指数最高;光照对种子发芽率影响不大,但随光照时间延长,种子发芽高峰推迟且峰值下降,发芽指数和活力指数逐渐下降;随NaCI浓度升高,种子发芽高峰推迟日.峰值变小,发芽率也呈下降趋势,但低NaCl浓度(0.01 mol/L和0.05 moi/L)胁迫下种子发芽率仍保持在90%以上,且促进了种子发芽指数及活力指数提高及胚根的伸长,结合天津地区黄顶菊生境中土壤的含盐量的分析表明,黄顶菊具有相当强的耐盐性;浸种对种子发芽率和发芽指数影响也很大.因此,黄顶菊成为潜在入侵种与其种子极高的萌发率及耐受高温和盐碱等特性密切相关.

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.
