Summary The evaluation of germplasm to identify its potential as a source of new favorable alleles is a time-consuming phase of maize hybrid breeding programs. The objective of this paper was to study the relationship between allozyme diversity and quantitative estimators of the relative number of new favorable alleles for grain yield, present in donor lines but not present in the elite hybrid. Twenty-two maize inbred lines representing heterotic groups from the United States (US) and Yugoslavia (YU) were used as donors to estimate the presence of new favorable alleles for grain yield improvement for the hybrid B73 x Mo17. In a second experiment, a 15-line diallel was grown, and 13 single crosses differing in allozyme relatedness measure (ARM) and heterotic grouping were considered as targets to be improved by the remaining 13 lines. Minimally biased estimates of new favorable alleles for grain yield (G) and ARM values were made for all donor lines within each target hybrid. Donor lines were grouped in four allozyme-pedigree classes for each target hybrid to compare the effect of allozyme diversity with pedigree diversity. Pedigree dissimilarities had significant effects on G estimates. Dissimilar pedigree classes had higher G estimates than similar pedigree classes. Allozyme differences between donor inbred lines and target hybrids had inconsistent effects on G estimates. Significant differences in G estimates among allozyme classes were found for 31% of the target hybrids. Classes with similar allozymes had higher G estimates more frequently than classes with disimilar allozymes. Correlation coefficients between G estimates and ARM values were low and not significant for 12 of the 14 target hybrids.This project was partially supported by the USDA and Republic Funds for Scientific work of Serbia through funds available to the United States-Yugoslav Joint Board of Scientific and Technological Cooperation, Project JFP 662  相似文献

The occurrence of HT-2 toxin and other trichothecenes in Norwegian cereals   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
A total of 449 grain samples, 102 barley, 169 wheat and 178 oat samples were collected from different regions of Norway from 1996–1998 crops, mainly from grain loads and silos. The samples were analysed for type A and B trichothecenes, the largest groups of mycotoxins produced by the Fusarium species, by gas chromatography with mass spectrometric detection (GC-MS). Factors affecting the presence of the different trichothecenes are discussed. Deoxynivalenol (DON) and HT-2 toxin were the trichothecenes most frequently detected, followed by T-2 toxin, nivalenol, and scirpentriol, scirpentriol being detected only in seven samples (>20 g/kg).Oats were the grain species most heavily contaminated with an incidence(% >20 g/kg) and mean concentration of positive samples of 70%(115 g/kg) for HT-2 toxin, 30% (60 g/kg) for T-2 toxin, 57%(104 g/kg) for DON, and 10% (56 g/kg) for nivalenol. The corresponding values for barley were 22% (73 g/kg), 5% (85 g/kg),17% (155 g/kg) and 6% (30 g/kg), and for wheat 1.2% (20 g/kg),0.6% (20 g/kg), 14% (53 g/kg) and 0% for HT-2, T-2, DON and nivalenol, respectively. Norwegian oats were found to contain HT-2 and T-2 toxin in concentrations that might be at threat to human health for high consumers of oats. The amount of DON was significantly lower than in the crop from previous years.This revised version was published online in October 2005 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献

In modern malting barley breeding it is important to increase the level of -amylase activity level in barley. The aim of this study was to investigate if a PCR method for screening -amy1 alleles can be used as an indicator for -amylase activity level in barley. Activity was assayed from 24 cultivars, 7 lines, and a Hordeum spontaneum PI 296897 strain grown in the same field. The -amy1 alleles were identified by amplifying the intron III-specific region of the gene using PCR. No new alleles were detected in addition to the three alleles found earlier: cv Adorra-like, cv Haruna Nijo-like and PI 296897-like -amy1 allele. Samples were grouped according to the nature of their -amy1 locus and enzyme activities were compared between the groups. Cultivars carrying a cv Haruna Nijo-like -amy1 allele had 1.3 times and lines carrying a PI 296897-like -amy1 allele had 2.1 times higher -amylase activity than cultivars carrying a cv Adorra-like -amy1 allele. The mean activities are significantly different in the allele groups (Kruskal–Wallis: for protein H= 11.54, P< 0.01; for meal H= 12.74, P< 0.01). PCR fragments can be used as allele specific markers to predict the level of -amylase activity in breeding when such variation of the intron III is concerned.  相似文献

Summary Theory and methods for identifying inbred lines (I w) with favorable dominant alleles not present in an elite single cross (I 1×I 2) have been developed recently. Selected I w lines can be crossed to I 1 or to I 2 to transfer new favorable alleles to the single cross. However, favorable alleles already present in the single cross may be lost during selection. It is important to consider both potential gain of favorable alleles from I w and loss of favorable alleles already present in I 1×I 2. The net improvement statistic (NI)=maximum [(I 1×I w-I 1xI 2)/2, (I 2×I w-I 1×I 2)/2] estimates the number of loci where favorable alleles can be gained minus the number of loci where favorable alleles can be lost in the single cross. Because I 1×I 2 is constant in an experiment, the method reduces to choosing I w lines with the best mean performance in combination with either I 1 or I 1. NI was compared to estimators previously proposed for identifying lines, namely: (1) minimally biased estimates (G) of favorable dominant alleles present in I w but not in I 1 and I 2; (2) minimum estimate of an upper bound (UBND) on G; and (3) predicted three-way cross (PTC) performance. Based on a set of maize (Zea mays L.) grain yield data, correlations among the four estimators were relatively high, but indicated that rankings of I w lines vary with the particular estimator used. Rankings of three I w lines based on the frequency of F2 test crosses superior to B73×Mo17 were identical to rankings based on NI, but differed from rankings based on G, PTC, and UBND. NI also was the best predictor of the mean of the upper 10% ({ovx}0.1) of (I 2×I w) F2×I 1 or (I 1×I w) F2×I 2 test crosses based on simulated data. Being a simple statistic highly correlated to {ovx}0.1, NI may be useful in applied breeding programs.A contribution from Lifaco Genetics, a Groupe Limagrain company  相似文献

Summary A comparative study was made of the photoperiodic and thermoperiodic induction of diapause in the phytoseiid mite Amblyseius potentillae. Sensitivity to thermoperiod was found to be highest during the protonymphal and deutonymphal stages, with some sensitivity still being present in the young adult. Summation of both photoperiodic and thermoperiodic cycles was shown to take place, which demonstrated the presence of a photoperiodic counter as well as a thermoperiodic counter in these mites. Vitamin A appeared to be necessary for some early step in the physiological mechanism of diapause induction and not just for the expression of the diapause response. The light sensitivity threshold for photoperiodic induction of diapause was found to be extremely low, viz. less than 0.02 W/cm2. Moreover, the light sensitivity threshold appeared to be strongly temperature dependent in A. potentillae. Experiments in which the mites experienced various sequences of short-day photoperiods and short-day thermoperiods, applied either concurrently or in succession, showed that the information collected by the photoperiodic counter and the thermoperiodic counter is integrated into one induction sum. These results strongly suggest that photoperiodic and thermoperiodic induction of diapause in these mites is based on the same physiological mechanism.Abbreviations DD continuous darkness - LL continuous light - LD light-dark cycle (e.g. LD 16:8 is a cycle of 16 h of light and 8 h of darkness) - TC thermoperiodic cycle (e.g. TC 16:8 (27°: 15°) is a thermoperiod with a 16 h thermophase of 27 °C and an 18 h cryophase of 15°C)  相似文献

Summary Isoelectric focusing of extracts from the endosperm of mature grains of hexaploid wheat and related species was used to study the genetic control of Iodine binding factor (IBF). Ten IBF bands were present in Chinese Spring (CS) and analysis of the nullisomictetrasomic and ditelosomic lines of CS showed nine of them to be controlled by genes on the long arms of the homoeologous group 5 chromosomes. Five alleles were detected at Ibf-A1 locus, four at Ibf-B1 and four at Ibf-D1 among a sample of 46 wheat genotypes. Homoeoloci were found on chromosome 5R of Secale cereale, 5E of Agropyron elongatum, 5U of Aegilops umbellulata, 5Agi of Agropyron intermedium, 5S1 and 4S1 of Aegilops sharonensis and 4H of Hordeum vulgare.  相似文献

Zusammenfassung Die beste N-Quelle für das Mycelwachstum ist Harnstoff, gefolgt von Alanin, Arginin, Asparagin, Prolin und Phenylalanin.Für die Primordienbildung ist bei N-Applikation im Nährboden kein eindeutiges Resultat zu erhalten. Die Zahl der Anlagen und ihre Anordnung am Mycel variiert sehr stark je nach dem Stamm, der N-Quelle und dem Zeitpunkt, zu dem die Mycelien Fruktifikationsbedingungen bekommen. Werden die Testsubstanzen jedoch in einem Tropfen Pufferlösung zugesetzt, nachdem die Mycelien den optimalen Durchmesser erreicht haben, so ist Asparagin besonders gut. Beim Stamm M7 kann Arginin ebenso gut verwertet werden, aber erst 1,5–2 Tage später. Bei 42×11 ist nur das Asparagin eine adäquate N-Quelle. Alle übrigen Substanzen sind eindeutig schlechter, vor allem Phenylalanin und Prolin.Der optimale Durchmesser ist eine stammspezifische Größe. Er wird weder von der N-Ernährung noch von der Wachstumsgeschwindigkeit, noch dem absoluten Alter des Mycels beeinflußt. Bei ihm erscheinen die Primordien früher als bei kleineren oder größeren Mycelien. Mit der Tropfenmethode ist bei ihm außerdem die Primordienzahl besonders hoch und reproduzierbar.
Effect of some N-compounds on growth of mycelium and formation of primordia in the basidiomycete Pleurotus spec. from Florida
Summary For mycelial growth, the best nitrogen source is urea followed by alanine, arginine, asparagine, proline and phenylalanine.For primordia formation no clear results can be obtained by addition of the nitrogen source in the medium. The number of fruiting body initials, as well as their arrangement on the mycelium varies to a large extent depending upon the particular strain, the N source and the time at which the mycelia have been given fruiting conditions. If, however, the test substances are added in a drop of buffer as soon as the mycelia have reached their optimal diameter, asparagine is most suitable. Strain M7 is able to use arginine to the same extent, although with a lag of 1.5 to 2 days. For 42×11 only asparagine is an adequate N source; all other substances tested are clearly less suitable especially phenylalanine and proline.The optimal diameter is a strain specific figure. It is not influenced by the nitrogen nutrition, the growth intensity or the absolute age of the mycelium. The primordia do develop earlier on mycelia with the optimal diameter than on smaller or larger ones. In addition, the number of primordia is very pronounced with the drop method and reproducible.

The relative proportions of -helix, -sheet, and unordered form in -lactoglobulin A and B were examined in solutions of urea, guanidine, and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS). In the curve-fitting method of circular dichroism (CD) spectra, the reference spectra of the corresponding structures determined by Chen et al. (1974) were modified essentially according to the secondary structure of -lactoglobulin B predicted by Creamer et al. (1983), i.e., that the protein has 17% -helix and 41% -sheet. The two variants showed no appreciable difference in structural changes. The reduction of disulfide bridges in the proteins increased -sheet up to 48% but did not affect the -helical proportion. The -helical proportions of nonreduced -lactoglobulin A and B were not affected below 2 M guanidine or below 3 M urea, but those of the reduced proteins began to decrease in much lower concentrations of these denaturants. By contrast, the -helical proportions of the nonreduced and reduced proteins increased to 40–44% in SDS. The -sheet proportions of both nonreduced and reduced proteins, which remained unaffected even in 6 M guanidine and 9 M urea, decreased to 24–25% in SDS.  相似文献

The stable isotope ratios of nitrogen were measured in the mysid,Neomysis intermedia, together with various biogenic materials in a eutrophic lake, Lake Kasumigaura, in Japan throughout a year of 1984/85. The mysid, particulate organic matter (POM, mostly phytoplankton), and zooplankton showed a clear seasonal change in 15N with high values in spring and fall, but the surface bottom mud did not. A year to year variation as well as seasonal change in 15N was found in the mysid. The annual averages of 15N of each material collected in 1984/85 are as follows: surface bottom mud, 6.3 (range: 5.7–6.9); POM, 7.9 (5.8–11.8); large sized mysid, 11.6 (7.7–14.3); zooplankton, 12.5 (10.0–16.4); prawn, 13.2 (9.9–15.4); goby, 15.1 (13.8–16.7). The degree of15N enrichment by the mysid was determined as 3.2 by the laboratory rearing experiments. The apparent parallel relationship between the POM and the mysid in the temporal patterns of 15N with about 3 difference suggests the POM (mostly phytoplankton) as a possible food source ofN. intermedia in this lake through the year.  相似文献

O-Methylation of simple neutral oligosaccharides is readily accomplished in dimethyl sulphoxide containing solid sodium hydroxide and methyl iodide [Cincanu I, Kerek F (1984) Carbohydr Res 131209-17]. This procedure has been extended to 2-acetamido-2-deoxy sugars and sialic acid-containing oligosaccharides. CompleteO-andN-methylation was in most cases achieved in 15 min. Esterification of carboxylic groups in uronic acids was fast and resulted in concomitant -elimination. The method is also suitable for methylation of glycoproteins and glycosphingolipids. Polysaccharides can also be methylated by this technique. Analysis of the products by gas-liquid chromatography and mass spectrometry showed no degradation products.Abbreviations lacto-N-tetraose LcOse4, Gal3GlcNAc3Gal4Glc - lacto-N-fucopentaose III III3Fuc-nLcOse4, Gal4[Fuc3]GlcNAc3Gal4Glc - trihexosylceramide GbOse3Cer, Gal4Gal4Glc1-1Cer - globoside GbOse4Cer, GalNAc3Gal4Glc1-1Cer - FAB-MS fas atom bombardment mass spectrometry  相似文献

On-line instantaneous carbon isotope discrimination was measured in conjunction with net uptake of CO2 in leaves of exposed and shaded plants of the C3-CAM intermediate Clusia minor growing under natural conditions in Trinidad. At the end of the rainy season (late January-early February, 1992) C3 photosynthesis predominated although exposed leaves recaptured a small proportion of respiratory CO2 at night for the synthesis of malic acid. Citric acid was the major organic acid accumulated by exposed leaves at this time with a citric: malic acid ratio of 11:1. Values of instantaneous discrimination () in exposed leaves during the wet season rose from 17.1 shortly after dawn to 22.7 around mid-day just before stomata closed, suggesting that most CO2 was fixed by Rubisco at this time. During the late afternoon, instantaneous declined from 22.2 to 17, probably reflecting the limited contribution from PEPc activity and an increase in diffusional resistance to CO2 in exposed leaves. Shaded leaves showed no CAM activity and CO2 uptake proceeded throughout the day in the wet season. The decrease in instantaneous from 27 in the morning to 19.2 in the late afternoon was therefore entirely due to diffusional limitation. Leaves sampled in the dry season (mid-March, 1992) had by now induced full CAM activity with both malic and citric acids accumulated overnight and stomata closed for 4–5 h over the middle of the day. Values of instantaneous measured over the first 3 h after dawn (6.4–9.1) indicated that C4 carboxylation dominated CO2 uptake for most of the morning when rates of photosynthesis were maximal, implying that under natural conditions, the down regulation of PEPc in phase II occurs much more slowly than laboratory-based studies have suggested. The contribution from C3 carboxylation to CO2 uptake during phase II was most marked in leaves which accumulated lower quantities of organic acids overnight. In exposed leaves, measurements of instantaneous during the late afternoon illustrated the transition from C3 to C4 carboxylation with stomata remaining open during the transition from dusk into the dark period. Uptake of CO2 by shaded leaves during the late afternoon however appeared to be predominantly limited by decreased stomatal conductance. The short-term measurements of instantaneous were subsequently integrated over 24 h in order to predict the leaf carbon isotope ratios (p) and to compare this with the p measured for leaf organic material. Whilst there was close agreement between predicted and measured p for plants sampled in the wet season, during the dry season the predicted carbon isotope ratios were 5–9 higher than the measured isotope ratios. During the annual cycle of leaf growth most carbon was fixed via the C3 pathway although CAM clearly plays an important role in maintaining photochemical integrity in the dry season.  相似文献

Two new asterosaponins, (20R)-3-O--D-(2-O-methylxylopyranosyl)-24-propylcholest-4-ene-3,6,8,15,16,29-hexaol (sanguinoside A) and (20R,24S)-3-O--D-(2,3,4-tri-O-methylxylopyranosyl)-5-cholestane-3,4,6,8,15,24-hexaol (sanguinoside B), were isolated from two species of Pacific Far Eastern Starfish Henricia sanguinolenta and H. leviuscula leviuscula, collected in the Sea of Okhotsk. Both glycosides contain aglycones with pentahydroxysteroid nuclei of similar structures, which are substituted at the 3-hydroxy group with differently methylated -D-xylosyl residues. Sanguinoside A has an unusual structure of its aglycone side chain, whereas sanguinoside B has a unique permethylated carbohydrate chain. In addition, laevisculoside G, a known glycoside, was identified in the H. leviuscula starfish. The structures of the isolated glycosides were established by interpreting their spectral data and by comparing their spectral characteristics with those of known compounds.  相似文献

Results of this investigation demonstrate that exposure to 17 -estradiol differentially and significantly regulates cortical nerve cell outgrowth depending on the cortical region. Parietal and occipital neurons treated with 1 nM 17 -estradiol showed a greater magnitude of neuronal outgrowth whereas outgrowth of temporal cortex neurons was decreased in the presence of 1 nM 17 -estradiol. Frontal cortex neurons showed a consistent enhancement of neuronal outgrowth that did not reach statistical significance. The dose response profile for 17 -estradiol regulation of the macromorphological features exhibited a bimodal dose response relationship whereas the dose response profile for 17 -estradiol regulation of the micromorphological features exhibited a dose response more characteristic of an inverted V-shaped function. An antagonist to the NMDA receptor antagonist, AP5, abolished the growth promoting effect of 17 -estradiol whereas the nuclear estrogen receptor antagonist ICI 182,780 did not. Lastly, neocortical neurons exposed to 17 -estradiol exhibited greater viability and survival than control neurons over a two week period. These data indicate that 17 -estradiol can enhance the growth and viability of select populations of neocortical neurons and that the growth promoting effects of 17 -estradiol can be blocked by an antagonist to the NMDA glutamate receptor and not by an antagonist to the estrogen nuclear receptor.  相似文献

Summary The aim of this study was to determine whether DNA variations could be detected in regenerated pea plants. Two different genotypes were analyzed by cytogenetic and molecular techniques: the Dolce Provenza cultivar and the 5075 experimental line. Dolce Provenza regenerated plants showed a reduction in DNA content, particularly at the level of unique sequences and ribosomal genes. Moreover, regeneration was associated with an increase in DNA methylation of both internal and external cytosines of the CCG sequence. On the other hand, the DNA content of the 5075 line remained stable after regeneration. DNA reduction was found only in 5075 plants regenerated from callus cultures maintained for long incubation periods (about a year). The DNA variations observed are discussed both in relation to the genotype source and the role of tissue-culture stress.  相似文献

Tolerance of peanut to excess boron   总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0  
The tolerance ofArachis hypogaea cv. Shulamit to high concentrations of B in nutrient solution, [B]o, was determined under greenhouse conditions that promoted the production of vegetative dry matter. Plants grew in large containers in which a root zone of nutrient solution was separated from a pod zone of soil. Grain yield was reduced at a calculated [B]o-threshold of 0.29 mM, which was associated with a concentration of B in the vegetative shoots that was approximately four times larger than the control. Symptoms of B toxicity occurred on leaves as young as the third unfolded leaf from the shoot apex before the [B]o-threshold. Excess B caused a relatively larger decrease in pod number than in vegetative shoot weight, which was high in all treatments (78 g d.wt/plant) and it did not decrease single grain weight. It was suggested that the tolerance of grain development to excess B was a consequence of the high ratio of vegetative matter to pod number.  相似文献

The goal of this research was to investigate if culturing in high sucrose (5%) liquid media during multiplication phase (stage II) would enhance endogenous sugar levels and dry matter sufficiently to allow storage of in vitro plants in sugar free media without adversely affecting post-storage recovery. Hosta tokudama Newberry Gold (NBG) and Hosta Striptease were cultured in Murashige and Skoog (MS) media containing 5% sucrose during stage II and transferred to rooting phase (stage III) in MS medium without (0%) sucrose or with 3% sucrose for 4weeks. At the end of stage III, cultures were stored, with the remaining media, at 10°C with 5molm–2s–1 photosynthetic photon flux (PPF) from cool white fluorescent lamps for 7 or 14weeks with or without a 2-week dark period prior to removal from storage. In both cultivars, stage III plants cultured in 3% sucrose media had higher soluble sugar levels and greater shoot and root biomass than those cultured in 0% sucrose media. Shoot and root soluble sugars decreased during storage. Shoot growth ceased during storage in both media. Root dry matter continued to increase in plants stored in 3% sucrose media but did not change in 0% sucrose media. Plants cultured in 3% sucrose media had less leaf chlorosis and less mortality after 7 or 14weeks of low temperature storage than the plantlets from sugar free media. Extending the storage period from 7 to 14weeks or introduction of 2-week dark period at the end of storage did not affect leaf chlorosis or plant mortality during acclimatization. Post-storage growth varied with the cultivar. Benefit of having sucrose in storage media was to develop a strong root system that aided the acclimatization and post-storage growth following 7 or 14week storage. Sucrose loading by culturing plants in liquid media containing 5% sucrose did not allow storage in sugar free media without adversely affecting post-storage growth in both cultivars.  相似文献

Summary The effect of a non-indole compound, phenylacetic acid (PAA), on the induction of somatic embryogenesis in tissue cultures of geranium (Pelargonium x hortorum Bailey cv. Scarlet Orbit Improved) was investigated. Hypocotyl explants derived from young, dark-grown seedlings were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (1962) medium (MS) supplemented with PAA or IAA (0.01–120 M) alone or in combination with BAP (8 M). Somatic embryogenesis was induced by both PAA and IAA at 0.01–20 M with 8 M BAP, however, the optima differed considerably for the two compounds. Maximal activity of IAA for somatic embryogenesis was found at 0.1–2.5 M, whereas PAA gave best results at 10 and 20 M under identical culture conditions. Higher concentrations (30–120 M) of IAA or PAA in the medium induced callusing in the explants, but the callus was neither embryogenic nor morphogenic.Abbreviations BAP N6-benzylaminopurine - IAA indole-3-acetic acid - MS Murashige and Skoog (1962) - PAA phenylacetic acid  相似文献

Poly-N-acetyllactosamines provide backbone structures for functional modifications such as sialyl Lewis X. To understand how the biosynthesis of poly-N-acetyllactosamines is regulated, two branched oligosaccharides of the structure Gal1,4GlcNAc1, 6(Gal1,4GlcNAc1,2)-Man1,6Man-octyl 1 and 2 were synthesized in which one of the terminal galactose units was selectively radiolabeled. Hexasaccharides 1 and 2 were assembled from the chemically synthesized pentasaccharide precursors GlcNAc1,6(Gal1,4GlcNAc1,2)-Man1,6Man-octyl3 and Gal1,4GlcNAc1,6(GlcNAc1, 2) - Man1,6 Man-octyl 4 respectively, through treatment with UDP-1-[3H]-Gal and 1,4 galactosyltransferase. Compounds 1 and 2 were subsequently incubated with UDP-GlcNAc and the UDP-GlcNAc: Gal1-4Glc(NAc)1,3-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase (i-GlcNAc transferase) resulting in a partial conversion to a mixture of heptasaccharides which were purified by HPLC. The branch selectivity of the addition of N-acetylglucosamine to compounds 1 and 2 was then characterized by endo--galactosidase digestion of the heptasaccharides, followed by isolation of the resultant pentasaccharides on C18 reverse-phase silica cartridges. Comparison of the amount of radiolabel to a control reaction lacking endo--galactosidase indicated the favored site of GlcNAc addition to be the lower 1,2-branch over the 1,6-branch by a 3:1 ratio.  相似文献

Little information is available concerning the efficacy of chelates applied to biosolids (sewage-sludge)-treated soil for heavy-metal removal. The purpose of the experiment was to determine the availability to sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) and hybrid poplar (Populus deltoides Marsh. × P. nigra L.) seedlings, of non-essential (Cd, Ni, Pb) and essential heavy metals (Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn) in field soil injected with biosolids since 1976 and treated with ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid (EDTA) in 2001. Sunflower was grown at two densities, 20000 and 60000 plants/ha, and poplar at 10000 plants/ha. The tetrasodium salt of EDTA was applied at rates of 0, 0.5, 1, and 2 g EDTA salt per kg surface (25-cm depth) soil. The EDTA did not affect uptake by poplar of the three non-essential (Cd, Ni, Pb) and four essential (Cu, Fe, Mn, Zn) heavy metals. For sunflower, the 1.0 g/kg rate of chelate addition resulted in maximal removal of the three non-essential heavy metals (Cd, Ni, Pb). Uptake of the essential heavy metals by sunflower was little affected by the EDTA. At the 20000 plants/ha density, leaves of sunflower grown with 1.0 g EDTA Na42H2O per kg soil accumulated more Cd, Ni, and Pb than leaves of sunflower grown without the EDTA salt. At this density, concentrations of Cd in leaves of sunflower without EDTA and with 1.0 g/kg EDTA salt were 2.2 and 6.5 g/g, respectively; for Ni, they were 6.7 and 19.2 g/g, respectively; and for Pb, they were 15.6 and 46.9 g/g, respectively. At the 60000 plants/ha density, stems of sunflower grown with 1.0 g EDTA Na42H2O per kg soil accumulated more Cd, Ni, and Pb than stems of sunflower grown without the EDTA salt. At this density, concentrations of Cd in stems of sunflower without EDTA and with 1.0 g/kg EDTA salt were 0.6 and 4.6 g/g, respectively; for Ni, they were 1.7 and 17.6 g/g, respectively; and for Pb, they were 5.2 and 42.8 g/g, respectively. Removal of the non-essential heavy metals by sunflower was greater at the higher plant density (60000 plants/ha) compared to the lower one (20000 plants/ha).  相似文献

Axillary shoot induction and plant regeneration were obtained in Plantago ovata. The optimum medium for inducing axillary shoots was Murashige & Skoog (MS) medium [5] supplemented with 4.6 M kinetin and 0.05 M NAA. Rooting of shoots was best on half-strength MS medium containing 5.0 M IBA and 0.05 M kinetin. The regenerated plants were similar to the control plants in karyotypic and phenotypic details.  相似文献
