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 Evaporation of a solution of thymidine plus either theexo or theendo diastereomer of uridine cyclic 2,3-O, O-phosphorothioate (U > p(S) in 1,2-diaminoethane hydrochloride buffer gave the 2,5 and 3,5 isomers of (P-thio) uridylylthymidine (Up(S)dT) in a ratio of 1:2 with a combined yield of about 20%. These isomers were re-converted to U > p(S) and dT by a reaction that is known to proceed by an in-line mechanism. Both the 2,5 and 3,5 isomers gave as product the same diastereomer of U > p(S) that had been used originally in their formation. These dry-state prebiotic reactions (Verlander, Lohrmann, and Orgel 1973) are thus shown to be stereospecific, and both the 2,5 and 3,5 internucleotide bonds are formed by an in-line mechanism.Abbreviations DAE 1,2-diaminoethane - HPLC high pressure liquid chromatography - RNase bovine pancreatic ribonuclease A, EC 3.1.4.22 - TEAB triethylammonium bicarbonate - tris tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane - UMP(S) uridine monophosphorothioate - U > p uridine cyclic 2,3-phosphate - U > p(S) uridine cyclic 2,3-O, O-phosphorothioate - Up(S)dT (P-thio)uridylylthymidine - U2p(Rp-S)5dT (P-thio)uridylylthymidine with theR configuration at phosphorous, and a 2,5 internucleotide linkage  相似文献

The seed storage globulins from sixHelianthus and four hybrids were studied using mono and bidimensional gel SDS electrophoresis (+ 2 mercaptoethanol). The polypeptide composition of each subunit was determined. Different pairs are specifically expressed according to the species studied. Three typical patterns were discriminated. All the studied species exhibit five subunits: two of them are expressed in all the species (11 and 22). The subunit corresponding to the 11 pair is present inH. petiolaris and in the three populations ofH. annuus studied. The 2b2 pair is common toH. annuus andH. argophyllus. H. petiolaris presents two specific 2a2 and 44 pairs andH. annuus a specific 33 pair. InH. argophyllus 11 33 or 44 are never observed but are replaced by 13 and 31 pairs. Some globulins, poorly represented, are of forms but present chains of higher molecular weights (in the range 54–56 kDa). Expressing variations in the banding patterns between these species by the use of a similarity index reveals complete identity between the three populations ofH. annuus. Identity between the twoH. petiolaris studied is also observed.H. annuus andH. argophyllus appear to be closer to each other thanH. petiolaris concerning the seed storage globulins.  相似文献

Style morph frequencies (shortmidlong) were determined for a total of n = 11 918 plants in 16 Minnesota populations of Lythrum salicaria L. Nine populations were in the establishment phase, with population sizes ranging from n = 56 to n = 2 192. Most of these populations exceeded previously reported population sizes in the native European habitat. A nonparametric statistical test, the chi-square (2), can be used to determine if populations are at isoplethic equilibrium (111, shortmidlong); a 2 value >5.99 is significant at the 5% level. Only one established population (White Bear Lake, n = 1991, 2 = 3.0) fitted the null hypothesis for isoplethy, although all established populations contained all three style morphs. Pooled values for these populations indicated an excess of mids and longs, with shorts being deficient. Colonizing populations had a higher percentage of mids (54%) when compared to established populations (33.7%). Short styles were almost nonexistent (8%) in colonizing populations. Five out of the seven populations lacked at least one style morph. A review of the literature reporting style morph frequencies in tristylous L. salicaria revealed that no statistical analysis for isoplethy has been performed. Darwin originally assumed that all populations would be isoplethic, possessing equal numbers of all three style morphs, but concluded, without statistical analysis, that, instead, populations were anisoplethic. Since tests for statistical deviations from the expected frequencies (111) have not been used, 2 analysis was performed. Several of these populations were at isoplethic equilibrium (Nadder su2 = 1.7, Blelham 2 = 1.69, Potsdam 2 = 1.5, Vestfold 2 = 0.4, Buskerud 2 = 5.62, Kilchberg 2 = 0.35, Lausanne 2 = 3.32, Canberra 2 = 5.29, Massachusetts 2 = 3.13), suggesting that the general conclusion of anisoplethy in tristylous L. salicaria is inappropriate.This is Scientific Journal Series Paper Number 19 128 of the Minnesota Agricultural Experiment Station  相似文献

Purified ribulose-bisphosphate carboxylase (EC 4.1.1.39) was strongly and equally inhibited either by ADP or GDP and to a lesser extent by IDP. AMP or ATP exerted little effect on activity. Inhibition by the nucleotide diphosphates was competitive with respect to RuBP and non-competitive with respect to CO2 and Mg2+, respectively. Treatment of the enzyme with urea or guanidine-HCl resulted in rapid loss of activity that was not restored by dialysis even in the presence of Mg2+ and cysteine. Sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis of 8.0 M urea treated enzyme revealed the presence of a fast-moving (small) sub-unit with molecular weight 14150 and a slower moving (large) sub-unit with molecular weight 68000. Examination of native enzyme by sodium dodecyl sulfate electrophoresis gave sub-units of 13700 and 55500 respectively. The amino acid content standardized to phenylalanine was essentially similar to that from other sources. Arrhenius plots showed a break at 29°C with an E a of 12.34 kcal per mole for the steeper part of the curve and a H of 11.43 kcal per mole while for the less steep region, the E a was 1.04 kcal per mole and the H 1.92 kcal per mole.Abbreviations ADP adenosine-5-diphosphate - AMP adenosine-5-monophosphate - ATP adenosine-5-triphosphate - CDP cytidine-5-diphosphate - CMP cytidine-5-monophosphate - CTP cytidine-5-triphosphate - FDP fructose-1,6-diphosphate - F6P fructose-6-phosphate - GDP guanosine-5-diphosphate - GMP guanosine-5-monophosphate - G6P glucose-6-phosphate - GTP guanosine-5-triphosphate - IDP inosine-5-diphosphate - IMP inosine-5-monophosphate - PEP phosphoenolpyruvate - 6PG 6-phosphogluconate - R1P ribose-1-phosphate - R5P ribose-5-phosphate - RuBP ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate - SDS sodium dodecyl sulfate - TDP thymidine-5-diphosphate - TMP thymidine-5-monophosphate - TTP thymidine-5-triphosphate - UDP uridine-5-diphosphate - UMP uridine-5-monophosphate - UTP uridine-5-triphosphate  相似文献

Summary Five subunits (-, -, -, - and -subunits) of the six -and -subunits) in the F1 portion (F1ATPase) of sweet potato (Ipomoea batatas) mitochondrial adenosine triphosphatase were isolated by an electrophoretic method. The - and -subunits were not distinguishable immunologically but showed completely different tryptic peptide maps, indicating that they were different molecular species. In vitro protein synthesis with isolated sweet potato root mitochondria produced only the -subunit when analyzed with anti-sweet potato F1ATPase antibody reacting with all the subunits except the -subunit. Sweet potato root poly(A)+RNA directed the synthesis of six polypeptides which were immunoprecipitated by the antibody: two of them immunologically related to the -subunit and the others to the - and -subunits. We conclude that the -subunit of the F1ATPase is synthesized only in the mitochondria and the -, - and -subunits are in the cytoplasm.  相似文献

The interaction of 3,5-bis-O-(,,,-tetrafluoropyrid--yl)thymidine with various nucleophilic reagents was studied to evaluate the possibility of molecular design of new types of nucleic acid analogues using S NAr reactions. The reactions with morpholine and sodium azide led to the introduction of one and two nucleophilic residues into each of the polyfluorinated pyridine rings. The nucleophilic polycondensation with bifunctional reagents ethylenediamine and hexamethylenediamine depended on the nature of nucleophile and reaction conditions and resulted in the formation of supramolecules containing about five or more than 20 pyrimidine bases.  相似文献

In floating rice, stem elongation begins much earlier than in non-floating rice, which is the major survival mechanism for flooding. Inheritance of this early elongation ability was studied using diallel and quantitative trait locus (QTL) analyses. The diallel analysis was undertaken using a set of 6×6 half-diallel crosses involving four floating (Goai, Habiganj Aman VIII, Badal 106, and Oryza rufipogon strain W120) and two non-floating (Latisail and Patnai 23) parents. The additive gene effects were higher than the dominant effects. The dominant alleles were concentrated in the cultivated floating parents (Goai, Habiganj Aman VIII, and Badal 106), whereas the recessive alleles were in the wild floating parent (W120). A QTL analysis using a Patnai 23 × Goai F2 population detected two putative QTLs. Of these QTLs, the one on chromosome 12 behaved as a partially dominant major gene that explained more than half of the total genetic variation.Communicated by D.J. Mackill  相似文献

Uptake kinetics of nitrogen derived from sewage–seawater mixtures (2.5–20% v/v effluent) were determined in the laboratory for Ulva rigida (Chlorophyceae) native from Bahía Nueva (Golfo Nuevo, Patagonia, Argentine). In terms of nitrogen concentration, experimental enrichment levels varied between 53.7 and 362.3M of ammonium and between 0.77 and 6.21M of nitrate+nitrite. Uptake rates were fitted to the Michaelis–Menten equation, with the following kinetic parameters: ammonium: Vmax = 591.2molg–1h–1, K s=262.3M, nitrate+nitrite: V max=12.9molg–1h–1, K s=3.5M). Both nutrients were taken up simultaneously, but ammonium incorporation was faster in all cases. The results show a high capability of Ulva rigida to remove sewage-derived nitrogen from culture media. In the field, most of the nitrogen provided by the effluent would be tied up in algal biomass, supporting low nitrogen levels found at a short distance away from the source.  相似文献

Soluble proteins from leaves of Nicotiana glauca Grah., N. langsdorffii Weinm., their reciprocal hybrids and amphiploid hybrid (N. glaucaxN. langsdorffii) were resolved by two-dimensional gel electrophoresis. Among a group of well-resolved polypeptides, in the isoelectric-point range of 5–5.5 and relative-molecular-mass (Mr) range of 18–23 kilodaltons (kDa), species-specific variation was observed. Polypeptides designated L and l are specific to N. langsdorffii, and G and g to N. glauca, while C is common to both species. Polypeptides L, G and C are localized in the chloroplasts and associated with thylakoid membranes. Polypeptide L is more acidic than polypeptide G, and both polypeptides have an Mr of 23 kDa. They were isolated from two-dimensional gels and their first 13 N-terminal amino-acid sequences were determined. These were found to be identical to the 13N-terminal amino acids of the photosystem II (PSII) 23-kDa polypeptide from spinach (T. Jansen et al. (1987) FEBS Lett. 216, 234–240) and, except for one change, to those from pea (R. Wales et al. (1989) Plant Molec. Biol., in press). Polypeptides G and L cross-react with antiserum against the PSII 23-kDa polypeptide from pea. Therefore, polypeptides G and L are extrinsic PSII 23-kDa polypeptides. They appear jointly and in equal amounts in the reciprocal hybrids. Since chloroplasts in Nicotiana are maternally inherited, these results demonstrate that polypeptides G and L are encoded by nuclear genes, are polymorphic variants of the PSII 23-kDa polypeptide, and are inherited in a Mendelian manner.Abbreviations kDa kilodalton - LS large subunit of Rubisco - Mr relative molecular mass - NEPHGE non-equilibrium pH gradient gel electrophoresis - PSII photosystem II - Rubisco ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase - SDS-PAGE sodium dodecyl sulfate polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis - SS small subunit of Rubisco  相似文献

In a previous study, cDNA microsatellite markers were described in apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.). Specific PCR primers were designed to amplify the microsatellite-containing regions from genomic DNA in different Prunus species. In the present work, cDNA microsatellite markers were developed in the hexaploid Prunus domestica L. species and polymorphism was ascertained in a segregating plum population. Co-dominant mendelian segregation of alleles was demonstrated and microsatellite polymorphism displayed up to 6 alleles per SSR locus per individual. Parentage lineage of three full-sib European plum cultivars (cv. Cacanska najbolja, Cacanska rana and Cacanska lepotica) was reconstructed by the analysis of the above nuclear SSR markers, completed by four chloroplastic microsatellite loci. The six most informative nuclear loci enabled discrimination between the three Cacak cultivars and unrelated individuals as well as the previously proposed parents, Wangenheim and Pozegaca. Data obtained support previous evidence that these cultivars originated from the Stanley cultivar. However, SSR analysis finally excluded Wangenheim as the other possible parent. Based on the results obtained with nuclear and chloroplast SSR loci, we propose the origin of those three Cacak cultivars in a cross between Stanley as the mother plant and Ruth gerstetter as the pollinator. Furthermore, we demonstrate the utility of these apricot SSR markers for genotype fingerprinting of the hexaploid plum cultivars.  相似文献

Summary Inheritance of ability to form callus in rice anther culture was studied using the diallel technique. Anthers containing uninucleate microspores from two japonica cultivais (Minehikari and Taipei 309), two indica cultivars (Mingolo and Suweon 290), and 12 F1's of the diallel crosses involving these four parents were cultured on Chaleffs R2 medium and evaluated for callus induction. The parents showed significant differences in anther callus formation, from 41.9% (Taipei 309) to 0% (Suweon 290). Callus induction ability was inherited as a recessive character conditioned by a single block of genes. Additive gene effects were predominant. The japonica types seemed to be good combiners for callus induction. The order of dominance among the four parents was Suweon 290, Mingolo, Minehikari and Taipei 309.  相似文献

In the legume Phaseolus vulgaris L., glutamine synthetase (GS) (EC.6.3.1.2.) occurs as three cytosolic polypeptides, , and , and a plastidic polypeptide, . This paper describes the subunit composition of active octameric GS isoenzymes from root nodules and plumules using ionexchange high-performance liquid chromatography followed by two-dimensional denaturing gel electrophoresis and Western immunodetection. Root nodules contained four separable GS activities, three of which were composed mainly of cytosolic , / and GS polypeptides, whereas the fourth activity, consisted of plastidic GS polypeptides. The increase in GS activity during nodulation was due largely to the appearance of -containing isoenzymes, and to a lesser extent on the isoenzyme, whereas the -isoenzyme activity remained approximately constant throughout. Plumule GS from imbibed seeds was found to be composed of separate and isoenzymes, but 2 d after germination, plumule GS consisted of a mixture of , / and isoenzymes. The results from both nodules and plumules indicate that different cytosolic GS polypeptides in P. vulgaris are able to assemble into both homo-octameric and heterooctameric isoenzymes. Moreover, the changes in the patterns of isoenzymes observed during nodule development and plumule growth are interpreted to be caused both by temporal changes in the denovo synthesis of the polypeptides and also by their spatial separation in different cell types.Abbreviations 1D, 2D one-, two-dimensional - GS glutamine synthetase - GSs GS semibiosynthetic activity - GSt GS transferase activity - IEX-HPLC ion-exchange high-performance liquid chromatography - kDa kilodaltons - SDS-PAGE sodium dodecyl sulphate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis  相似文献

Peach [Prunus persica (L.) Batsch] regenerants from cv Sunhigh embryo no. 156, regenerants obtained from cv Redhaven embryo no. 30, and two peach cultivars Sunhigh and Redhaven, were screened for polymorphic RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) markers with up to 60 10-mer primers. Although 35 primers produced results with scoreable bands, only 10 of the primers revealed polymorphism for regenerants of embryo no. 156 and cv Sunhigh, and 1 revealed a low level of polymorphism for regenerants of embryo no. 30 and cv Redhaven. This study demonstrates the feasibility of using RAPD markers to identify somaclonal variants of peach and provides evidence for the existence of genetic differences among these variants.Abbreviations PCR Polymerase chain reaction - RAPD random amplified polymorphic DNA - RFLP Restriction fragment length polymorphism - CTAB cetyltrimethyl ammonium bromide - PVP polyvinyl pyrolidone - dNTP deoxy-ribonucleotide triphosphate Communicated by R.

Summary We have studied the reactions between adenosine 5-phosphorimidazolide and 9-(2-amino-2-deoxyxylofuranosyl) adenine (I) or 3-methylamino-3-deoxyadenosine (II), both with and without a poly (U) template. We find that both amino compounds react much more rapidly than does adenosine, in the absence of a template. The rate of reaction is greatly enhanced by a poly (U) template in the case of I, but the enhancement is slight in the case of II.Abbreviations A adenosine - xylo ANH2 9-(2-amino-2-deoxy--D-xylofuranosyl) adenine - ANHMe 3-methylamino-3-deoxyadenosine - ImpA adenosine 5-phosphorimidazolide - A3 pA adenylyl-[35]-adenosine - A2 pA adenylyl-[25]-adenosine - UNPA adenylyl-[52]-2-amino-2-deoxyuridine - xylo ANPA 9-[adenylyl-(52)-2-amino-2-deoxy--D-xylofuranosyl]adenine - A(NMe)pA adenylyl-[53]-3-methylamino-3-deoxyadenosine - pA adenosine 5phosphate - AppA P1, P2-diadenosine 5pyrophosphate - (pA)n n = 2, 3 [2-5]-linked oligomers of pA - A2 pA2 pA [2-5]-linked trinucleoside diphosphate of A - poly (U) polyuridylic acid  相似文献

Primers were developed for 118 microsatellites isolated from grape (Vitis vinifera) genomic libraries enriched for (AC)n repeats. Only one microsatellite sequence matched other grape SSR-sequences in the GeneBank database. Genotyping was carried out in the parental lines and four offspring of two pseudo-test-cross populations, Cabernet Sauvignon x Seyval and Chardonnay x Bianca, and a further six other grape genotypes (V. vinifera Sultanina, Merlot, Syrah, Müller-Thurgau, Vitis Regent and V. riparia Gloire de Montpellier). A total of 108 microsatellites showed easily scorable alleles and 100 of them segregated according to a configuration suitable for mapping in either cross. A further 8 SSRs, although unsuitable for mapping in those crosses, showed polymorphism in the other genotypes tested. This set of markers was used, along with 75 microsatellites of other repeat-types, to fingerprint 46 offspring of the cross Chardonnay x Bianca. For each full-sib, individual heterozygosity and distance in repeat units between pairs of alleles at each locus (mean d2) were calculated as a tool for predicting highly outbred recombinant individuals. Six microsatellites with segregation ratios significantly distorted towards the lack of homozygous sibs were identified and mapped to linkage groups LG 3 and LG 5. Estimation of heterozygosity at genome-wide level and genotyping at loci for which homozygous sibs are discriminated against are discussed for marker-assisted background selection in outcrossing grapevines.  相似文献

Four glycosidases were analyzed in 10 mm apical segments prepared from growing roots (15 mm) of Zea mays L. The pH optima were found to be 5.8 for -glucosidase, 4.4 for -galactosidase, 6.4 for -glucosidase and 6.0 for -galactosidase. The -glucosidase showed 4-fold higher activity than the -galactosidase. The distribution of the -glucosidase activity was signifcantly different from that of the -galactosidase, -glucosidase and -galactosidase.Abbreviations -Glu -glucosidase - -Gal -galactosidase - -Glu -glucosidase - -Gal -galactosidase  相似文献

Two particular types of sialoglycoproteins have been detected in fish: polysialoglycoproteins containing 28-linked polysialic acid (8Neu5Gc2) n 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) n 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) n , and to be able to distinguish specifically (8KDN2) n chains from (8Neu5Ac2) n and (8Neu5Gc2) n chains. The antibody was used successfully for the immunohistochemical detection of reactive KDN epitopes in sections of paraffin embedded rat pancreas. Several controls verified the specificity of the immunohistochemical staining, thus providing the first demonstration of (8KDN2) n sequences in a mammalian tissue. The mAb.kdn8kdn can now be used to search further for glycoconjugates containing (8KDN2) n chains and will facilitate studies on their biosynthesis, intracellular localization and function.  相似文献

Summary In merodiploid cells containing a double dose of structural genes of RNA polymerase subunits-rpoBand rpoC-the rate of and subunits synthesis is 2 times higher than in haploidcells. Missence mutation rpoC1 (tsX) alters polypeptide and inducesthe and subunits synthesis at increased rate, particularly at a nonpermissive temperature. When rpoBCoperon carrying mutation rpoC1 is duplicated no dosage effect is observed. In the rpoC +/rpoC1 heterodiploid the rpoC1 mutation does not significantly accelerate RNA polymerase subunits synthesis i.e. is recessive with respect to rpoC + Rifampicin causes 6-fold stimulation of RNA polymerase subunits synthesis in a sensitive wild-type strain. The rpoC1 mutation itself accelerates the synthesis of these subunits 3-fold. In the presence of rifampicin the mutant strain produces 13–22-fold faster as compared to wild-type strain without the drug. Thus, the effects of rifampicin and the mutation are multiplied suggesting that these factors act independently. Similar data have also been obtained with rifampicin-treated cells of rpoB22 (ts22) amber-mutant.After UV-irradiation of cells and synthesis is depressed much stronger than the total protein synthesis. Infection with a transducing phage rif d-47 which carries rpoB gene provokes a higher rate of synthesis. When pre-irradiated cells (500 erg/mm2) are infected with this phage, the rate of synthesis grows 20-fold compared to irradiated, non-infected cells and 6.5-fold compared to intact cells.The data are discussed in terms of the possible regulatory mechanisms of RNA polymerase subunit synthesis.  相似文献

The concern of the present analysis is the hypothetical cryptopolyploidy, a concept basically of historical interest only, but discussed again by Battaglia (1996) in a recent treatment of the term and its historical background. Melinossi (1935), while reanalyzing erratic observations on the crucifersBunias erucago andB. orientalis by Jaretzky (1928a), found 2n = 14 in both species but twice the chromosome volume inB. erucago compared withB. orientalis. Melinossi considered cryptopolyploidy inB. erucago, i.e., she discussed pairwise fused chromosomes on a tetraploid basis or endoreduplicated (and thus binemic) chromosomes in this species. Cryptopolyploidy has also been claimed by Pannocchia-Laj (1938) inVinca difformis (Vincaceae). Battaglia (1996) criticized the term cryptopolyploidy because, in his opinion, the genuinely polyploid status of these plants is not hidden (crypto) but phenotypically (from herbarium specimens) recognizable. He coins the term phenopolyploidy, i.e., phenotypic polyploidy disagreeing with the karyotype numerically evalated. We measured genome size ofB. orientalis andB. erucago (both 2n = 14) by Feulgen densitometry and propidium iodide flow cytometry. Surprisingly,B. erucago (the annual species with 2.13 pg, 1 C) turned out to have only 0.81-fold the DNA amount ofB. orientalis (the perennial species with 2.64 pg, 1 C). Therefore, any kind of genetically polyploid status inB. erucago is out of the question. Only speculative significance can be ascribed to the terms cryptopolyploidy and phenopolyploidy.  相似文献
