The described virus of cow-parsnip,Heracleum sphondylium L., was found in three ruderal localities of Greater Praha. The symptoms are manifested by decolorations which consist of bright yellow areas spreading from the centre of the leaf blade along the main veins. These symptoms appear severely in May. Under higher temperatures and in a chronic stage of infection the symptoms are more or less masked. The disease is mechanically transmissible to parsley, coriander, parsnip, dill, sowbane,Chenopodium quinoa and C.giganteum. The author failed to transmit the disease to celery, carrot, caraway and to 27 species of differential host plants, he failed in the transmission of the virus by the dodder,Cuscuta campestris YUNCK., too. Thermal inactivation point of the virus lies between 51° and 55° C. Infectivity of extracted sap was lost after 2 days at room temperature. 相似文献

Two new species, Talaromyces heiheensis from rotten wood and T. mangshanicus isolated from soil, are illustrated and described as new to science in sections Trachyspermi and Talaromyces. The phylogenetic positions of the two new species inferred from the internal transcribed spacer, beta-tubulin, calmodulin and RNA polymerase II second largest subunit regions were carried out. Talaromyces heiheensis is phylogenetically closely related to T. albobiverticillius, T. rubrifaciens, T. solicola and T. erythromellis, and characterised by slow growth on Czapek yeast autolysate agar at 25 °C, orange conidia en masse on malt extract agar at 25 °C, biverticillate and terverticillate conidiophores, acerose phialides and subglobose to ellipsoidal, smooth-walled conidia. Talaromyces mangshanicus is related to T. kendrickii, T. qii and T. thailandensis, and characterised by slow-growing colonies with absent or sparse sporulation on CYA agar at 25 °C, conidia en masse greyish purple, purplish red soluble pigment on yeast extract agar (YES) at 25 °C, biverticillate conidiophores, ampulliform phialides and subglobose to ellipsoidal conidia with echinulate walls. They are distinguished from the known species in culture characteristics on four standard media, microscopic features and sequence data. 相似文献

We report the successful high-yield expression of Candida utilis uricase in Escherichia coli and the establishment of an efficient three-step protein purification protocol. The purity of the recombinant protein, which was confirmed to be C. utilis uricase by sodium dodecyl sulfate–polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and matrix-assisted laser desorption/ionization time-of-flight mass spectrometer analysis, was >98% and the specific activity was 38.4 IU/mg. Crystals of C. utilis uricase were grown at 18°C using 25% polyethylene glycol 3350 as precipitant. Diffraction by the crystals extends to 1.93 Å resolution, and the crystals belong to the space group P212121 with unit cell parameters a?=?69.16 Å, b?=?139.31 Å, c?=?256.33 Å, and α?=?β?=?γ?=?90°. The crystal structure of C. utilis uricase shares a high similarity with other reported structures of the homologous uricases from other species in protein database, demonstrating that the three-dimensional structure of the protein defines critically to the catalytic activities. 相似文献

Photosynthetic parameters including net photosynthetic rate (PN), transpiration rate (E), water-use efficiency (WUE), and stomatal conductance (gs) were studied in indoor C3 plants Philodendron domesticum (Pd), Dracaena fragans (Df), Peperomia obtussifolia (Po), Chlorophytum comosum (Cc), and in a CAM plant, Sansevieria trifasciata (St), exposed to various low temperatures (0, 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25°C). All studied plants survived up to 0°C, but only St and Cc endured, while other plants wilted, when the temperature increased back to room temperature (25°C). The PN declined rapidly with the decrease of temperature in all studied plants. St showed the maximum PN of 11.9 μmol m?2 s?1 at 25°C followed by Cc, Po, Pd, and Df. E also followed a trend almost similar to that of PN. St showed minimum E (0.1 mmol m?2 s?1) as compared to other studied C3 plants at 25°C. The E decreased up to ≈4-fold at 5 and 0°C. Furthermore, a considerable decline in WUE was observed under cold stress in all C3 plants, while St showed maximum WUE. Similarly, the gs also declined gradually with the decrease in the temperature in all plants. Among C3 plants, Pd and Po showed the maximum gs of 0.07 mol m?2 s?1 at 25°C followed by Df and Cc. However, St showed the minimum gs that further decreased up to ~4-fold at 0°C. In addition, the content of photosynthetic pigments [chlorophyll a, b, (a+b), and carotenoids] was varying in all studied plants at 0°C. Our findings clearly indicated the best photosynthetic potential of St compared to other studied plants. This species might be recommended for improving air quality in high-altitude closed environments. 相似文献

The effect of altitude and season on abundance and diversity of the culturable heterotrophic bacterial and yeast community was examined at four forest sites in the Italian Alps along an altitude gradient (545–2000 m). Independently of altitude, bacteria isolated at 0 °C (psychrophiles) were less numerous than those recovered at 20 °C. In autumn, psychrophilic bacterial population increased with altitude. The 1194 bacterial strains were primarily affiliated with the classes Alpha-, Beta-, Gammaproteobacteria, Spingobacteriia and Flavobacteriia. Fifty-seven of 112 operational taxonomic units represented potential novel species. Strains isolated at 20 °C had a higher diversity and showed similarities in taxa composition and abundance, regardless of altitude or season, while strains isolated at 0 °C showed differences in community composition at lower and higher altitudes. In contrast to bacteria, yeast diversity was season-dependent: site- and altitude-specific effects on yeast diversity were only detected in spring. Isolation temperature affected the relative proportions of yeast genera. Isolations recovered 719 strains, belonging to the classes Dothideomycetes, Saccharomycetes, Tremellomycetes and Mycrobotryomycetes. The presence of few dominant bacterial OTUs and yeast species indicated a resilient microbial population that is not affected by season or altitude. Soil nutrient contents influenced significantly abundance and diversity of culturable bacteria, but not of culturable yeasts. 相似文献

Chenopodium species react on infection with tobacco mosaic virus by the formation of chlorotic or necrotic lesions and later by the abscission of infected leaves. A transition of local infection into the stem has been observed exceptionally inChenopodium quinoa, C. hybridum, andC. rubrum, but no systemic infection of the leaves followed. Systemic infection was demonstrated only inC. polyspermum andC. murale. The recovery of new sprouts was demonstrated in C.murale in the late chronic phase of infection. 相似文献

We conducted life table experiments on the freshwater rotifer Asplanchna brightwellii to analyze its demography when fed with prey items from several taxonomic groups (cladocerans, protozoans, and rotifers) and under two different temperature regimes (20 and 25°C); the aim of the study was to determine the preferred prey for A. brightwellii in terms of fitness (evaluated as reproductive success) among five cladoceran, protozoan, and rotifer preys, and to test which temperature (20 or 25°C) is better for life table parameters of Asplanchna. Our analysis identified Brachionus calyciflorus as the preferred prey for A. brightwellii based on life table statistics, ingestion rate and electivity indices. The greatest values for net reproductive rate and intrinsic growth rate were achieved when A. brightwellii was fed B. calyciflorus. Greater reproductive values (R o and r) were found at 25°C than at 20°C for A. brightwellii across the five prey species. We found significant differences in the ingestion rate and electivity index among zooplanktonic and benthic preys. The influence of temperature, the cost of predation, and how prey selection by A. brightwellii is influenced by: biomass, size, and swimming speed; they are discussed hoping to gain a better understanding of trophic transfers in zooplankton communities. 相似文献

Invasive candidiasis is caused mainly by Candida albicans, but other Candida species have increasing etiologies. These species show different virulence and susceptibility levels to antifungal drugs. The aims of this study were to evaluate the usefulness of the non-conventional model Caenorhabditis elegans to assess the in vivo virulence of seven different Candida species and to compare the virulence in vivo with the in vitro production of proteinases and phospholipases, hemolytic activity and biofilm development capacity. One culture collection strain of each of seven Candida species (C. albicans, Candida dubliniensis, Candida glabrata, Candida krusei, Candida metapsilosis, Candida orthopsilosis and Candida parapsilosis) was studied. A double mutant C. elegans AU37 strain (glp-4;sek-1) was infected with Candida by ingestion, and the analysis of nematode survival was performed in liquid medium every 24 h until 120 h. Candida establishes a persistent lethal infection in the C. elegans intestinal tract. C. albicans and C. krusei were the most pathogenic species, whereas C. dubliniensis infection showed the lowest mortality. C. albicans was the only species with phospholipase activity, was the greatest producer of aspartyl proteinase and had a higher hemolytic activity. C. albicans and C. krusei caused higher mortality than the rest of the Candida species studied in the C. elegans model of candidiasis. 相似文献

Objectives
To characterize a novel ene-reductase from Meyerozyma guilliermondii and achieve the ene-reductase-mediated reduction of activated C=C bonds.Results
The gene encoding an ene-reductase was cloned from M. guilliermondii. Sequence homology analysis showed that MgER shared the maximal amino acid sequence identity of 57 % with OYE2.6 from Scheffersomyces stipitis. MgER showed the highest specific activity at 30 °C and pH 7 (100 mM sodium phosphate buffer), and excellent stereoselectivities were achieved for the reduction of (R)-carvone and ketoisophorone. Under the reaction conditions (30 °C and pH 7.0), 150 mM (R)-carvone could be completely converted to (2R,5R)-dihydrocarvone within 22 h employing purified MgER as catalyst, resulting in a yield of 98.9 % and an optical purity of >99 % d.e.Conclusion
MgER was characterized as a novel ene-reductase from yeast and showed great potential for the asymmetric reduction of activated C=C bonds of α,β-unsaturated compounds.10.
Small heat shock proteins (sHSPs) constitute a large, diverse, and functionally uncharacterized family of heat shock proteins. To gain insight regarding the function of sHSPs in insects, we identified genes encoding two sHSPs, Cshsp22.9b and Cshsp24.3, from the rice pest Chilo suppressalis. The cDNAs of Cshsp22.9b and Cshsp24.3 encoded proteins of 206 and 216 amino acids with isoelectric points of 5.79 and 9.28, respectively. Further characterization indicated that both Cshsp22.9b and Cshsp24.3 lacked introns. Real-time quantitative PCR indicated that Cshsp22.9b and Cshsp24.3 were expressed at higher levels within the fat body as compared to other tissues (head, epidermis, foregut, midgut, hindgut, Malpighian tubules, and hemocytes). Expression of Cshsp22.9b and Cshsp24.3 was lowest in the hindgut and Malpighian tubules, respectively. Cshsp22.9b and Cshsp24.3 showed identical patterns in response to thermal stress from ?11 to 43 °C, and both genes were up-regulated by hot and cold temperatures. The mRNA (messenger ribonucleic acid) expression levels of Cshsp22.9b (KY701308) and Cshsp24.3 (KY701309) were highest after a 2-h exposure at 39 °C and started to decline at 42 °C. In response to cold temperatures, both Cshsp22.9b and Cshsp24.3 showed maximal expression after a 2-h exposure to ?3 °C. The two Cshsps were more responsive to hot than cold temperature stress and were not induced by mildly cold or warm temperatures. In conclusion, Cshsp22.9b and Cshsp24.3 could play a very important role in the regulation of physiological activities in C. suppressalis that are impacted by environmental stimuli. 相似文献

In this study, we investigated the influence of cold stratification on seed germination in S. × niederederi, a hybrid between the North American S. canadensis and the European S. virgaurea, using fruit samples collected in 2016 in Poland. We aimed to test the hypothesis that the low temperature exposure decreases the final percentage and speed of seed germination in the hybrid and its parental species. For each species, sets of 100 achenes in three replications were mixed with dry sand and stored in Petri dishes in darkness for 12 weeks, at ?18 °C and?+?4 °C, and?+?25 °C. The seeds were incubated for 21 d at room temperature (+25 °C), under the 12 h photoperiod (630 lx). We showed a lack of significant differences in: (i) the final percentage of germinated seeds of studied species stored at the same conditions, (ii) the final percentage of germinated seeds between the applied stratification conditions in the hybrid and its parental species, and (iii) the mean values of Timson’s index, mean germination time, and coefficient of velocity of germination between the stratification conditions in each species. The statistically significant inter-specific differences in the mean germination time parameter after the +25 °C treatment suggest that the seeds of S. × niederederi are able to germinate faster than the seeds of its parental species. However, to improve our knowledge of naturalization and invasion abilities of S. × niederederi by sexual reproduction, the seed germination and seedling survival of the hybrid should be tested in the field. 相似文献

Cultivation temperature is one of the major factors affecting the growth and lipid accumulation of microalgae. In this study, the effects of temperature on the growth, lipid content, fatty acid composition and biodiesel properties of the marine microalgae Chaetoceros sp. FIKU035, Tetraselmis suecica FIKU032 and Nannochloropsis sp. FIKU036 were investigated. These species were cultured at different temperatures (25, 30, 35 and 40 °C). The results showed that the specific growth rate, biomass and lipid content of all microalgae decreased with increasing temperature. With regards to fatty acids, the presence of saturated fatty acids (SFAs) in T. suecica FIKU032 and Nannochloropsis sp. FIKU036 decreased with increasing temperature, in contrast with polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs). Moreover, Chaetoceros sp. FIKU035 was the only species that could grow at 40 °C. The highest lipid productivity was observed in Chaetoceros sp. FIKU035 when cultivated at 25 °C (66.73 ± 1.34 mg L?1 day?1) and 30 °C (61.35 ± 2.89 mg L?1 day?1). Moreover, the biodiesel properties (cetane number, cold filter plugging point, kinematic viscosity and density) of the lipids obtained from this species were in accordance with biodiesel standards. This study indicated that Chaetoceros sp. FIKU035 can be considered as a suitable species for biodiesel production in outdoor cultivation. 相似文献

Yeasts, lactic and acetic acid bacteria are responsible of microbial spoilage of alcoholic beverages. However species involved in deterioration of sorghum beer produced in Côte d’Ivoire has not been investigated. This study was carried out to identify species of yeast, LAB and AAB during spoilage of tchapalo in order to define the best strategy for beer preservative. Thus, a total of 210 yeasts, LAB and AAB were isolated from samples of tchapalo stored at ambient temperature and at 4 °C for 3 days. Based on PCR–RFLP of the ITS region and the sequencing of D1/D2 domain, yeast isolates were assigned to seven species (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida tropicalis, Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, Trichosporon asahii, Kluyveromyces marxianus, Meyerozyma guilliermondii and Trichosporon coremiiforme). During the storage at ambient temperature and at 4 °C, S. cerevisiae was the predominant species (>?76%). Excepted R. mucilaginosa, occurrence of non-Saccharomyces species was sporadic. LAB species detected in fresh samples using molecular methods were Pediococcus acidilactici, Lactobacillus paracasei, Lb. curvatus, Lb. fermentum and Weisssella paramesenteroides. P. acidilactici was the dominant species (47.8%) followed by Lb. paracasei (17.5%). W. paramesenteroides and Lb. fermentum were not detected during the spoilage at ambient temperature while at 4 °C W. paramesenteroides and Lb. paracasei have not been detected. For AAB, the species found were Acetobacter pasteurianus sub paradoxus and Acetobacter cerevisiae. These species were common to all samples during spoilage and A. pasteurianus sub paradoxus was the most frequently detected. 相似文献

Present study revealed the presence of 16 earthworm species belonging to 11 genera and four families viz. Megascolecidae (Amynthus alexandri, Metaphire houlleti, Lampito mauritii, Kanchuria sp1, Perionyx excavatus), Octochaetidae (Eutyphoeus gigas, Eutyphoeus comillahnus, Eutyphoeus orientalis, Octochaetona beatrix, Dichogaster bolaui, Lennogaster chittagongensis, Lennogaster yeicus), Moniligastridae (Drawida papillifer papillifer, Drawida assamensis, Drawida nepalensis) and Glossoscolecidae (Pontoscolex corethrurus) in the soils of five bamboo species [Bambusa balcooa (Sil Barak), Melocanna baccifera (Muli), Bambusa polumorpha (Bari), Bambus cacharensis (Bom) and Bambus bambus (Katabarak)] of West-Tripura. While four earthworm species viz. Metaphire houlleti, Drawida assamensis, Drawida papillifer papillifer and Pontoscolex corethrurus were common to all species of bamboo plantations, the rest showed restricted distribution. Among the earthworm species 4 were exotic (Amynthus alexandri, Metaphire houlleti, Dichogaster bolaui and Pontoscolex corethrurus) and the others were native to the Indian sub-continent. In general, earthworms under the bamboo plantations occurred within temperature range of 21.6 °C–28.0 °C, pH 4.0–7.0, organic matter 0.56–5.99 %, moisture 9.6–31.7 %, water holding capacity 14.6–43.9 % and bulk density 0.7–1.8 g cm?3. The average density and biomass of the earthworms in the studied places were 108 ind m?2 and 44 g m?2 respectively. Earthworm diversity, dominance and evenness indices showed the values 1.00, 0.47 and 0.70 respectively. Earthworm density and biomass showed a negative correlation with temperature whereas those had a strong positive correlation with pH, moisture and organic matter of the soils. 相似文献

The demand for natural food colorants is growing as consumers question the use of artificial colorants more and more. The phycobiliprotein C-phycocyanin of Arthospira platensis is used as a natural blue colorant in certain food products. The thermoacidophilic red microalga Cyanidioschyzon merolae might provide an alternative source of phycocyanin. Cyanidioschyzon merolae belongs to the order Cyanidiophyceae of the phylum Rhodophyta. Its natural habitat are sulfuric hot springs and geysers found near volcanic areas in, e.g., Yellowstone National Park in the USA and in Java, Indonesia. It grows optimally at a pH between 0.5 and 3.0 and at temperatures up to 56 °C. The low pH at which C. merolae grows minimizes the risk of microbial contamination and could limit production loss. As C. merolae lacks a cell wall, phycocyanin with a high purity number of 9.9 could be extracted by an osmotic shock using a simple ultrapure water extraction followed by centrifugation. The denaturation midpoint at pH 5 was 83 °C, being considerably higher than the A. platensis phycocyanin (65 °C). The C. merolae phycocyanin was relatively stable at pH 4 and 5 up to 80 °C. The high thermostability at slightly acidic pH makes the C. merolae phycocyanin an interesting alternative to A. platensis phycocyanin as a natural blue food colorant. 相似文献

Temperature is the main factor affecting the distribution of the sympatric Amazon fishes Paracheirodon axelrodi and Paracheirodon simulans. Both species are associated with flooded areas of the Negro river basin; P. axelrodi inhabits waters that do not exceed 30°C, and P. simulans lives at temperatures that can surpass 35°C. The present work aimed to describe the biochemical and physiological adjustments to temperature in those species. We determined the thermal tolerance polygon of species acclimated to four temperatures using critical thermal methodology. We also determined the chronic temperature effects by acclimating the two species at 20, 25, 30, and 35°C and measured the critical oxygen tension (PO2crit) for both species. Additionally, we evaluated the metabolic rate and the enzymes of energy metabolic pathways (CS, MDH, and LDH). Our results showed a larger thermal tolerance polygon, a higher energetic metabolic rate, and higher enzyme levels for P. simulans acclimated to 20 and 35°C compared to P. axelrodi. Paracheirodon simulans also presented a higher hypoxia tolerance, indirectly determined as the PO2cri. Thus, we conclude that the higher metabolic capacity of P. simulans gives this species a better chance to survive at acutely higher temperatures in nature, although it is more vulnerable to chronic exposure. 相似文献

The gastric evacuation rate (GER) of the delicate loach Niwaella delicata was estimated experimentally under four temperature conditions (10, 15, 20, and 25 °C). The GER was relatively high under the ≥20 °C condition and was nearly zero under the ≤15 °C condition. The relationship between GER and water temperature was estimated following the method of Elliot (1972) as follows: GER = exp (0.436 × temperature ? 10.59). This physical characteristic might affect the seasonal activity of this species. 相似文献
