Protein preparations from cell suspension cultures of Chenopodium rubrum L. and petals of Lampranthus sociorum (L.Bol.) N.E.Br. (Mes.C.L.Bol.) catalyzed the formation of acylated betacyanins, i.e. celosianin I and II (p-coumaroyl-and feruloylamaranthins) and lampranthin I and II (p-coumaroyl- and feruloylbetanins), from 1-O-(p-coumaroyl)-and 1-O-feruloyl--glucoses as acyldonors and the respective acceptor molecules amaranthin (betanidin 5-O-sophorobiuronic acid = betanidin 5-O--[12]-glucuronosyl--glucoside) and betanin (betanidin 5-O--glucoside).

The genetic improvement of enzymes important in the brewing process is one of the main goals of barley biotechnology. For the improvement of -amylase thermostability in barley seeds, we have already constructed a mutant thermostable -amylase gene, using site-directed mutagenesis and random mutagenesis to achieve the substitution of seven amino acids of the original barley -amylase. This sevenfold-mutant barley -amylase showed a thermostability increased by 11.6 °C compared to the original enzyme. In the present article, a thermostable -amylase gene under the control of the barley -amylase promoter was introduced to barley protoplasts, and fertile plants were generated from 9 independent transgenic lines. Subsequent analyses indicated that the thermostable -amylase gene was expressed and -amylase activity derived from both native and modified genes was detected in the seeds of 6 transgenic lines. The transgene was stably transmitted to progeny, and thermostable -amylase was synthesized in T4 seeds, demonstrating that our strategy is applicable for the improvement of seed quality for industrial utilization. 相似文献

Summary The osmotic potentials of needles were compared from numerous trees that had been classified according to needle loss along an altitude profile. With the increasing degree of damage of the trees, the maximum and minimum values deviated more strongly above and below the common mean of all samples. The level of water content of the needles unequivocally reflected the vitality of the trees. Experiments covering a whole vegetation period were performed on a tree pair selected from a natural stand. They were designed to demonstrate differences in water balance between the healthy and damaged state of the trees. For the damaged tree, measurements of the water potentials of single needles showed a greater reduction of potential during the course of the day compared to the healthy tree. Recovery in the evenings was slower and often incomplete. The osmotic potentials of damaged and healthy shoots measured in individual needles also differed both predawn and especially after transpiration stress. Depending on weather and soil desiccation, the differences were more or less pronounced. In the damaged tree, the rises in potential after saturation of the twigs fell far short of the healthy tree. Reduction of water potential, osmotic potential and relative water content under comparable stress conditions suggest a reduced tolerance of drought by damaged trees. In the context of earlier experiments this result was ascribed to a lack of stomatal control, and long-term pollution effects were thus explained as a specific disturbance of hydroregulation. 相似文献

Chloroplast DNA restriction fragment length polymorphisms have been used to reconstruct the maternal phylogeny of all the known taxa in the small neotropical legume genusLeucaena. Three major plastome clades were recognized, but these did not conform with relationships between the taxa proposed on other characters from morphology, cytology or hybridization. The maternal parentage of tetraploids within the genus has been proposed. Evidence for introgression was found between diploidL. diversifolia and tetraploidL. diversifolia. The implications of these results for the origin of the cultivated taxa are discussed. 相似文献

Summary On exposure to high temperature of a temperature-sensitive RNA polymerase subunit (rpoC92) mutant of Escherichia coli, selective reduction was observed in the rate of synthesis of a group of proteins including RNA polymerase subunit. The finding that the synthesis of subunit but not subunit was specifically repressed in this mutant grown at non-permissive temperature indicates that the functionally intact RNA polymerase is required for the synthesis of subunits be coordinated. In addition, the assembly of newly synthesized RNA polymerase subunits was inefficient in this mutant at the steps where altered subunit was involved, and the unassembled enzyme subunits were rapidly and preferentially degraded. During recovery to non-restricted growth, the synthesis of both and subunits was transiently enhanced in parallel leading to recovery of the intracellular concentration of functional RNA polymerase. 相似文献

Summary Using immunocytochemistry (ICC), the number of immunoreaction products (IRPs) visualized for the peptide substance P (SP) appears reduced within the human spinal cord (also substantia nigra) taken at autopsy from cases diagnosed with Huntington's disease (HD) compared with the non-HD cases (Vacca 1983). The reductions of SR-IRPs become apparent in the HD specimens when primary anti-SP serum is applied to the tissue sections at supra-optimal dilutions; that is, dilutions greater than the optimal dilutions which visualize maximal numbers of SP-IRPs and concomitantly give maximal staining intensity. Curiously, the application of optimal dilutions to the HD and non-HD specimens visualizes equivalent numbers of SP-IRPs; therefore, the qualitative and quantitative differences between the specimens become masked. Applying supra-optimal dilutions of the anti-SP serum unmasks the difference, and also reveals different end-points for the immunostain deposited in each type of specimen. In both the HD and non-HD specimens, two sizes of SP-IRPs could be identified, large (3 m) and small (0.7 m). Presumably they mark two different categories of axons defined by caliber (e.g.; C-type and A ), or origin (e.g., sensory intrinsic, or supraspinal). Alternatively the large SP-IRPs label tangentially-cut or large axons and nerve terminals. In the present report, counts of the large and small SP-IRPs visualized in the HD and the non-HD specimens have been plotted against the serial dilutions (optimal, supra-optimal and endpoint) of the primary anti-SP serum used for ICC. The graphs which result, describe a titration curve characteristic for the large SP-IRPs in each specimen. Applying supra-optimal dilutions of the primary antibody, causes the numbers of large and small SP-IRPs to decrease differentially. The numerical decrease probably largely reflects the concentration of immunoreactive antigen in different anatomic or metabolic tissue compartments. Alternatively, or perhaps to a lesser degree, the small and large SP-IRPs represent cross-reacting components which have different staining end-points, and may have biological significance in HD. Criteria are given for the proper use of ICC, and have significance regarding the use of commercial kits especially for pathological diagnosis. 相似文献

Zusammenfassung Beim ThermometerhuhnLeipoa ocellata tragen die Partner eine Paares ein Rufduett vor. Der Anteil des besteht aus einer Rufreihe, die sich aus einer Folge von 2–7 identischen, zweisilbigen Rufen zusammensetzt. Das trägt einen einzelnen, obertonreichen und langgezogenen Ruf vor. Sowohl der Ruf des als auch die Rufreihe des wird in Serien vorgetragen. Innerhalb einer solcher Ruf- bzw. Rufreihenserie können mehrere Duette auftreten. Die Rufe sind jedoch nicht ausschließlich an das Duett gebunden. Die Variabilität im Aufbau des Duetts äußert sich im Zeitpunkt des Einsatzes des antwortenden Vogels, in der Anzahl der -Rufe während des Duetts und in der Anzahl der Einheiten, aus denen sich der Duettanteil des zusammensetzt. Das beginnt signifikant häufiger als das eine Serie, in der ein oder mehrere Duette vorkommen. Ebenso ist es häufiger der Initiator des ersten in dieser Serie liegenden Duetts. Das Duett dient wohl hauptsächlich zur Festigung des Zusammenhalts zwischen den Paarpartnern. Es erfüllt jedoch von seinen physikalischen Eigenschaften her auch die Bedingungen, die für ein territorial wirksames Signal gelten.

Summary In the Australian Mallee Fowl,Leipoa ocellata, both and of a pair are involved in a call duet. The part of the consists of a sequence of 2–7 identical two-syllable calls. The contributes a single long-drawn-out call rich in harmonics. The call of the as well as the call sequence of the are presented in series. Within a series of calls () or call sequences () several duets can occur. The respective vocalizations, however, do not exclusively occur during the duet.The variability in the details of the duet expresses itself in the lag period after which the mate responds, in the number of -calls during the duet, and in the number of calls within the call sequence of the . The begins a series during which one or several duets occur significantly more frequently than the . The circumstances under which duetting occurs indicate that duet calling mainly serves to maintain the pair bond. Moreover, due to its physical characteristics the duet also seems to be suited to serve as a territorial signal.相似文献

Zusammenfassung Erwin Stresemann (1889–1972), Generalsekretär, Präsident und Ehrenpräsident der Deutschen Ornithologischen Gesellschaft (bzw. Deutschen Ornithologen-Gesellschaft) über 50 Jahre, war einer der hervorragendsten Ornithologen des 20. Jahrhunderts. In den 1920er und 1930er Jahren gab er den Anstoß für eine weltweite Transformation der älteren, vorwiegend systematisch-faunistischen Ornithologie zu einem Zweig der modernen Biologie und beeinflusste einen großen Kreis von Zeitgenossen (die Stresemannsche Revolution). Mit seinem maßgeblichen Aves-Band (1927–1934) des Handbuchs der Zoologie und den Dissertationen seiner Schüler entstand durch Verbindungen mit der Genetik, der funktionellen Morphologie, der Physiologie und Ethologie der Vögel eine Neue Biologische Ornithologie.
The Stresemann Revolution in ornithology during the early 20th century
Summary Erwin Stresemann (1889–1972), Secretary General, President and Honorary President of the Society of German Ornithologists for 50 years, was one of the outstanding ornithologists of the 20th century. During the 1920s and 1930s, he initiated the global transformation of the traditional ornithology, which had been primarily systematic and faunistic in scope, into a branch of modern biological science, a New Avian Biology, and influenced a large circle of contemporaries (the Stresemann Revolution). He forged links, directly or indirectly, between ornithology and genetics, functional morphology, physiology and ethology, when he published his seminal volume Aves (1927–1934) in the German Handbook of Zoology, and instigated the theses of a large number of PhD students.相似文献

Summary The DNA base sequences of the entire chimpanzee 1 globin gene and an additional 1 kb of DNA flanking both the human and chimpanzee genes have been determined. Whereas the human 1 gene contains a termination codon in the sixth position, the chimpanzee gene appears to be functional. This finding confirms Proudfoot et al.'s suggestion that the human 1 gene was recently inactivated. Like the corresponding human 1 and 2 genes, the first and second introns of the chimpanzee 1 gene are occupied largely by tandem repeats of short oligonucleotides. These tandem repeats have undergone several rearrangements since the divergence of the human and chimpanzee 1 genes. 相似文献

Freeze-etch observations of protoplasts isolated from tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L.) mesophyll tissue and tomato (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill.) fruit locule tissue are described which clarify earlier observations (Burgess, J., Fleming, E.N., Planta 131, 173–178, 1976; Planta 133, 267–273, 1977), obtained using scanning electron microscopy. of fibres associated with projections from these cell surfaces. It is demonstrated (1) that the fibres consist of bundles of small numbers of microfibrils which have become artifactually thickened by the deposition of coating materials, and (2) that the apparent association between fibres and projections results from microfibrils being lifted preferentially from protoplast surfaces in regions rich in projections (plasmalemmasomes). With the higher resolution available using freeze-etching it can be demonstrated that microfibril deposition does not occur in discontinuous zones on these protoplast surfaces. Globules associated with microfibril termini in radish (Raphanus sativus L.) roots are illustrated and it is proposed that turgor pressure differences between isolated protoplasts and intact tissue may account for the absence of similar globules from isolated protoplast surfaces. 相似文献

Summary A protocol for obtaining regenerated fertile plants from mesophyll protoplasts of Arabidopsis thaliana is reported. Protoplasts were isolated from leaves of 21-to 28-day-old Arabidopsis plants grown in a controlled environment. Sustained divisions were achieved when protoplasts were embedded in beads formed by 1.4% sodium alginate in the presence of 50mM CaCl2 in 0.4 mannitol, which was then exchanged againts modified B5 medium. About 0.4%–0.6% of the protoplasts developed into colonies of which 80%–90% formed shoots and subsequently regenerated to fertile plants. Seeds harvested from more than 200 independently regenerated plants were sown and germination frequencies of more than 95% were obtained. Furthermore, the F1 plants did not show any evidence of somaclonal variation on visual inspection. This protocol was originally developed for Arabidopsis thaliana Columbia; however it was shown to be applicable also for the genotypes Wassilewskija, Landsberg erecta and Estland though with differing efficiencies.Abbreviations FDA

Summary Segregation analysis was performed on 211 nuclear families belonging to 166 pedigrees of hereditary retinoblastoma found in a number of series which have been gathered from the literature. Bilaterally affected carriers appear homogeneous. The segregation ratio in their offspring is 0.49, and the proportion of bilateral cases among affected offspring is 0.87. Both unilaterally affected and unaffected carriers appear heterogeneous. The very low segregation ratio (0.08) in the offspring of unilateral carriers who are not detected through an affected child, suggests the possiblity of two types of carriers, high and low transmitters. The proportions of low transmitters was estimated as 0.14 among all familial unilateral carriers and as 0.45 among all detected unaffected carriers. Unilateral and unaffected high transmitters give a significantly lower segregation ratio than bilaterally affected carriers.On the one hand, the existence of these two different types of carriers provides arguments in support of the hypothesis of delayed mutation. On the other hand, the differences in penetrance among high transmitters, according to their phenotype, supports the hypothesis of host resistance. Under the two-mutation hypothesis, the possibility that the mutation rate is variable among individuals and partly genetically determined, is suggested. 相似文献

The biosynthesis of Fraction I protein in isolated protoplasts is compared with that in the plant. Radioactive precursors were incorporated into isolated protoplasts (in vitro labeling) and into leaves, from which the protoplasts were isolated later (in situ labeling). The biosynthesis of Fraction I protein stopped almost completely as soon as the protoplasts were incubated in the culture medium. 相似文献

Mesophyll protoplasts were isolated from leaves of three cultivars of Lycopersicon esculentum (L.) Mill., namely Hilda 72, Rutgers and Rentita, and from the wild tomato species Lycopersicon peruvianum (L.) Mill. Protoplasts from L. peruvianum divided and grew actively in a liquid medium according to Zapata et al. (1977), whereas protoplasts from the tomato cultivars Hilda 72 and Rutgers showed comparable rates for cell division only, when the content of major elements in this medium was reduced to one half of the original concentration and when mannitol as osmoticum was replaced by glucose. In Rentita protoplasts no cell division could be observed in about 15 different modifications of the five basic culture media tested. The morphogenetic potential of these tomato cells was assessed by comparing the root and shoot formation of protoplasts and of leaf explants. L. peruvianum exhibited the highest potential. Calli derived from protoplasts regenerated roots on Murastrige-Skoog agar containing 1 M benzylaminopurine (BAP) plus 10 M indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and 0.1 M BAP plus 1 M IAA. Shoot formation occurred in the combinations of 10 M BAP with 0.1, 1.0, and 10 M IAA. Plantlets regenerated from the L. peruvianum calli could be grown in soil. No shoots or roots were regenerated from calli of Hilda 72 and Rutgers protoplasts in all combinations of BAP and IAA tested in the range from 0.1 M to 100 M, thus indicating the rather low morphogenetic potential of these protoplasts as compared to protoplasts from L. peruvianum leaves.Abbreviations BAP

Somatic embryo formation was induced from cotyledon explants of Styrian pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L. subsp. pepo var. styriaca Greb.) by using a solid MS medium supplemented with 16.11M NAA and 4.44M BA or 26.85M NAA and 13.32M BA. The callus proliferation was more efficient on medium supplemented with 26.85M NAA and 13.32M BA. In contrast, the embryogenic response was higher on medium with lower concentrations of growth regulators (16.11M NAA and 4.44M BA). The time needed for embryo induction did not depend on medium composition. Embryos in globular stage were transferred to three different maturation media, containing 2.89M GA3 in combination with 0.54M NAA, 11.42M IAA and growth regulator-free medium. The germination rate was the highest when embryos were cultured on medium with 11.42M IAA. Plantlets grown on this medium achieved maturity suitable for transplantation into soil within 9 to 10weeks. The regenerated plants were successfully transferred into field and developed fertile flowers and set fruits. Biochemical analysis showed significant lower total glutathione levels among in vitro grown plantlets compared to seedlings grown in soil. When the plantlets were transferred into soil, they reached a normal size within a month and the glutathione concentration was comparable to seed-derived plants at the same developmental stage. Transmission electron microscopy was used to investigate possible differences in the ultrastructure of cells from callus cultures, and leaf cells of regenerated and seed-derived plants. Differences in the ultrastructure were found within chloroplasts which contained only single thylakoids, large starch grains and small plastoglobuli in callus cells in comparison to leaf cells, which possessed a well developed thylakoid system, small starch grains and large plastoglobuli. 相似文献

Summary We obtained cybrid plants by electrofusing -irradiated protoplasts of a cytoplasmic male-sterile line A-58 CMS (Oryza sativa L.) and iodoacetamide (IOA)-treated protoplasts of the fertile (normal) rice cultivar Fujiminori. The cybridity of the plants was confirmed by mitochondrial (mt) DNA restriction endonuclease, and plasmid-like DNA analyses, and by isozyme, cytological and morphological investigations. The chromosome number of the cybrid plants is 24. 相似文献

A detailed hydrodynamic study has been made on the -crystallin of the bovine lens. Sedimentation study indicates that -crystallin shows a nearly gaussian peak throughout the course of sedimentation at high speed, using a synthetic boundary cell. The diffusion and sedimentation coefficients are 10.3×10–7 cm2/sec and 2.51 S, respectively. The weight-average molecular weight of the unfractionated -crystallin calculated from sedimentation equilibrium is 21,800. The four major subfractions of -crystallin show similar hydrodynamic properties with an intrinsic viscosity of 2.50 ml/g and a Stokes radius of 21 Å. The distinct electrophoretic mobilities exhibited by the four subfractions show gel-concentration dependence and similar slopes in the Ferguson plot, indicative of being charge isomers of the same molecular species. Amino acid analysis of these four subfractions corroborated the conclusions that these -crystallin polypeptides are closely related and comprise a multigene family of crystallins. Based on the sedimentation and intrinsic viscosity data, -crystallin can be modeled as a prolate ellipsoid with an axial ratio of approximately 3.0 and a hydration factor of 0.27 g water per gram protein. The circular dichroism data for -crystallins showed a minimum at about 217 nm, characteristic of a -sheet conformation. These structural characteristics are in good accord with those derived from X-ray diffraction data for -crystallin II. 相似文献

Axillary shoot proliferation was induced in vitro from shoot explants of greenhouse grown candellila (Euphorbia antisyphilitica Zucc). Optimum shoot proliferation was obtained by supplementing a modified Murashige and Skoog [7] medium with 0.13 M naphthalene-acetic acid and 4.44 M 6-benzylaminopurine. Rooting occurred on 100% of shoots transferred to a medium containing half strength salts supplemented with 0.49 M indole-3-butyric acid. Fully rooted plants were transferred to potting soil and established under greenhouse conditions without special acclimatization techniques. 相似文献

Fowl plague virus, strain Dutch, was metabolically labeled withd-[2-3H]mannose, or withd-[6-3H]glucosamine, and the small subunit (HA2; 0.8 mg in total) of the viral hemagglutinin was isolated by preparative sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. After proteolytic digestion, the radioactive oligosaccharides were sequentially liberated from the glycopeptides by treatment with different endo--N-acetylglucosaminidases and with peptide:N-glycosidase or, finally, by hydrazinolysis. In this manner, four groups of glycans could be obtained by consecutive gel filtrations and were subfractionated by HPLC. The structures of the individual oligosaccharides were analyzed by micromethylation, by acetolysis or by digestion with exoglycosidases. The major species amongst the high mannose glycans at Ans-406 of the viral glycopolypeptide were found to be Man1-2Man1-3(Man1-2Man1-6)Man1-6(Man1-2Man1-2Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNac1-4GlcNAc and Man1-3(Man1-2Man1-6)Man1-6(Man1-2Man1-2Man1-3)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc, while the complex glycans at Asn-478 are predominantly GlcNAc1-2Man1-3(GlcNAc1-2Man1-6)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc (lacking, in part, one of the outerN-acetylglucosamine residues) and GlcNAc1-2Man1-3(Gal1-4GlcNAc1-2Man1-6)Man1-4GlcNAc1-4GlcNAc.Abbreviation BSA

Fungi,leaves, and the theory of island biogeography 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4

Species dynamics of fungi (filamentous fungi and yeasts) on apple leaves were studied within the framework of the theory of island biogeography by following immigration and extinction patterns on individual apple leaf islands over time. Total fungi were censused on unmanipulated leaves collected throughout two seasons; filamentous fungi only were monitored additionally for several weeks in one season on newly created, axenic, model (seedling) islands introduced to the orchard, and on surface-sterilized, preexisting leaves. Analyses based on both the natural and the surface-sterilized systems showed that an equilibrium in species number was reached and turnover in species composition occurred in both. Immigration and extinction events were strongly related to number of species present on each island. The balance between immigration and extinction implies that species number on leaves and real (oceanic) islands is determined by a common mechanism, and emphasizes the need to regard leaf microbial communities as dynamic. 相似文献
