渗透胁迫下多效唑对刺槐幼苗体内多胺、脯氨酸和保护酶系统的影响

刺槐幼苗在PEG渗透胁迫下,相对含水量(RWC)降低,质膜透性增加,游离腐胺、脯氨酸的积累和超氧物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性提高,腐胺、亚精胺比值(Put/Spd)增加。渗透胁迫下用多效唑(PP_(333))作浸根和浸种处理,提高刺槐幼苗RWC和游离脯氨酸含量,减少质膜透性和 Put/Spd比值,降低SOD、CAT活性和腐胺含量。腐胺水平的变化与幼苗的水分状况有关,与质膜透性的变化趋势一致。     

钙素和水分亏缺对黄瓜叶片细胞质膜透性的影响

用控制溶液的钙量[加或不加Ca(NO_3)_2]和渗透势(加聚乙二醇6000,202 g/L)的方法,研究了钙素和水分亏缺对黄瓜叶片细胞质膜透性的影响。结果表明:在渗透胁迫下,正常供钙的黄瓜叶片相对含水量(RWC)和膜透性变化较小、MDA增加不显著、SOD活性无明显改变;缺钙植株叶片的RWC随渗透胁迫处理线性下降,膜透性显著增大、MDA含量迅速提高、SOD活性也升高。在正常水分供应下,与供钙植株相比,缺钙植株SOD活性和MDA含量均较高,但RWC和膜透性无差异。在水分胁迫下,缺钙植株MDA和质膜透性与ΔRWC以及MDA与质膜透性之间均呈正相关。这些结果表明在水分胁迫下,缺钙处理叶片保水能力降低,使受害加重;同时,细胞质膜的稳定性降低。膜透性改变可能与在水分胁迫下体内的膜脂过氧化反应密切相关,即缺钙加速了膜脂过氧化反应,从而损害了质膜结构。     

NaCl胁迫对宁夏枸杞幼苗根系质膜和液泡膜H+-ATPase活性的影响

以宁夏枸杞为材料,研究NaCl胁迫下枸杞幼苗组织含水量、干物质重量、无机离子分布、质膜透性、丙二醛 (MDA)含量及幼根质膜、液泡膜H -ATPase活性和耐盐性之间的关系。结果表明,在0．3％NaCl胁迫下,干物质重量、质膜透性、MDA含量略有增加,组织含水量略有下降;随着NaCl胁迫强度的增加,Na 、Cl-含量逐渐增加, K 含量则呈现下降的趋势;质膜透性增大与MDA含量升高呈显著正相关;质膜和液泡膜H -ATPase活性逐渐增加,且液泡膜H -ATPase活性显著高于质膜H -ATPase活性,表明枸杞具有较强的抗盐性。     

干旱胁迫下牛心朴子幼苗相对含水量、质膜透性及保护酶活性变化

牛心朴子(Cynanchum komarovii)幼苗用不同浓度PEG-6000(聚乙二醇)模拟干旱处理,测定处理12d和复水24h中根、叶的RWC、质膜相对透性、MDA含量及几种保护酶(SOD、CAT、POD)活性变化情况,结果表明：高浓度胁迫后期,RWC明显下降,MDA含量增大,致使膜脂过氧化引起膜损伤;低、中浓度胁迫下,RWC下降程度低,细胞膜脂过氧化及膜透性影响小,且可能对膜脂过氧化起到一定的防御作用。复水后,低、中度胁迫下,各项指标能迅速恢复到CK水平,而高浓度胁迫下,除叶质膜透性、MDA含量、SOD活性不能恢复外,根、叶的其余指标均能达到CK水平。保护酶系统的作用,在一段时间内,可能是通过它们之间的相互协调而保持一个稳定的平衡态进行的。     

硅对低温胁迫下黄瓜幼苗生长的影响

采用砂基培养的方法,研究硅对低温胁迫下黄瓜幼苗生长的影响.结果表明加硅处理能使低温胁迫下的黄瓜幼苗超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)活性显著升高:丙二醛(MDA)含量和超氧阴离子自由基(O₂^-)产生速率显著下降,叶片质膜透性降低;硅提高了低温胁迫下黄瓜幼苗的可溶性蛋白质和叶绿素含量、叶绿素a/b比值及植株生物量.因此,硅可以减弱低温胁迫对黄瓜幼苗的伤害.

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
