Summary The subunit composition of glutenin was analysed by SDS-polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis using two varieties of contrasting pedigrees. Maris Widgeon, a variety of good bread-making quality, was shown to contain 2 glutenin subunits not present in Maris Ranger, a much higher yielding variety that is unsuitable for making bread. A third subunit was only found in Maris Ranger glutenin. To determine if any of these subunits are directly related to bread-making quality, 60 randomly-derived F2 progeny from a Maris Widgeon x Maris Ranger cross were analysed for bread-making quality and for glutenin subunit composition. A strong correlation was demonstrated between the presence of one of the two subunits inherited from Maris Widgeon, and quality. This subunit (termed subunit 1 glutenin) had an approx. mol. wt. of 145,000. It was also found in Maris Freeman, a bread-making variety selected from the same cross previously made in 1962. In further crosses involving Maris Widgeon or its descendants, more bread-making varieties have been produced in the last decade at the Plant Breeding Institute, Cambridge and all but one have inherited glutenin subunit 1. The subunit has been traced back through Holdfast to White Fife, a Canadian hard spring wheat of excellent breadmaking quality. Some 67 varieties were screened for the presence of glutenin subunit 1 and it was found in 31% of them. Several unrelated varieties of good bread-making quality did not contain subunit 1 glutenin. 相似文献

Summary Two winter wheat genotypes (Diószegi 200 and Mv 15) were compared for their in vitro androgenic capacity. On average, the induction frequency of embryogenic structures was 71.7% in Diószegi 200 and only 4.3% in Mv 15. The haploid induction ability of the two genotypes differed considerably, with Diószegi 200 being much higher. The difference in the in vitro inductability of the microspores may result from genetic differences which are manifested in the survival rate of the microspores during the culture period and their adaptability to in vitro conditions. Special DNA fluorochrornes were suitable for studying the different pathways of in vitro androgenesis. Our data indicate that the repeated equal divisions of the microspore nucleus might lead to pollen embryo formation, and subsequent divisions of the vegetative portion of the pollen grain after the first asymmetric microspore mitosis can result in pollen callus formation. 相似文献

Summary Thirty-one toria genotypes were compared with three well-established cultivars, Ludhiana Composite-2, K-1 and TCSU-2 (standard testers). The genotypes, which were almost identical to a standard tester in response to environmental variations and which also had other desirable characteristics, were considered to be acceptable for commercial cultivation. Using this criterion, TCSU-7, TH-5 and TH-4 were found to be acceptable for commercial cultivation. TH-4 and TCSU-7 were found superior to TH-5 if r2 can be considered as a measure of the agronomical manipulations expected in environmental variations. 相似文献

Summary The inheritance of resistance to whitebacked planthopper Sogatella furcifera (Horvath) was studied in 21 rice varieties. Reactions of F1; F2 and F3 progenies of the crosses of 21 resistant varieties with the susceptible variety TN 1 revealed that a single dominant gene governs resistance in Mushkan 41, Santhi, Siahnakidar 195, SM2-34, Tirisurkh 251, Zirijowaian 245, 18, 24A, 39, 76 S, 78, 180, 213 B, 267, 293, CI 6037-4, NP97, S39 JKW and Bansphul. In varieties 65 and 274 A, resistance is governed by one dominant and one recessive gene which segregate independently of each other. Tests for allelism with the Wbph 1 gene originally identified in N 22 revealed that the dominant gene present in all the test varieties is the same as Wbph 1. Further studies are required to determine the allelic relationships of the recessive gene found in varieties 65 and 274 A. 相似文献

A simple method for stimulating and maintaining high in vitro multiplication of Narcissus shoot clump cultures was developed. Shoot clumps were subjected either to normal cutting where leaves were trimmed to 20 mm in length at the beginning of each culture passage or to severe cutting where shoot clumps were cut down to the basal plate region removing all green tissue. Severe cutting at the beginning of each culture passage initially doubled the leaf multiplication, compared to normal cutting, but the difference between cutting treatments declined in successive passages. The improvement in leaf multiplication was maintained when shoot clumps were subjected to severe cutting only at every other culture passage, with no cutting in the alternate recovery passages.
In vitro multiplication was increased by severe cutting in all seven Narcissus cultivars which were tested.Abbreviations NAA-1

Longer coleoptiles improve emergence through crop residues to increase seedling number and biomass in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Crop residues protect soils from erosion, reduce soil water evaporation and increase soil organic matter. Yet management of stubbles for cropping can be difficult. Surface-retained residue can act as a mechanical barrier to slow emergence and reduce seedling biomass. Longer coleoptiles improve seedling emergence with deep sowing and may assist where stubble load is large. In a glasshouse study, six wheat and barley genotypes were sown at 30 and 50mm depth into pots containing pasteurised soil. Unweathered sorghum, canola and wheat stubble were added at 0, 3 and 6t/ha equivalents to the soil surface and pots watered above or below the stubble. Stubble species and watering regime had little effect on seedling growth. However, deeper sowing and increased stubble mass adversely affected most seedling characteristics particularly slowing seedling emergence and reducing tiller number to decrease plant biomass (environmental correlations (re) of –0.98** and 0.88**, respectively). Shorter coleoptile Rht-B1b wheats Banks and Janz, and barley Beecher emerged slower and abnormally with thicker stubble, and had more sterile tillers to reduce total tiller number and biomass. Deeper crowns for these genotypes also resulted in proportionally less biomass located above the stubble. The converse was true of long coleoptile Vigour 18, Halberd, and its Rht8 progeny, HM14bS which were less affected by stubble mass and sowing depth. In a corresponding field study, increasing wheat stubble mass from 0 to 3 and 6 t/ha delayed seedling emergence and decreased plant number to reduce biomass. Short coleoptile wheat genotypes Hartog and Janz emerged slower and produced less biomass at 3 and 6t/ha of stubble than long coleoptile wheat genotypes Halberd and HM14bS. Emergence of seedlings sown at 50mm depth with 6t/ha overlying stubble was similar to that sown at 120mm with no stubble, reflecting the similar impact of retained residues to deep sowing. Genetic variation for coleoptile length and availability of gibberellin-responsive dwarfing genes such as Rht8 will allow development of long coleoptile wheats for deep sowing or where stubble retention is practiced. 相似文献

Summary Crude protein extracts from single seeds of nondomesticated Mexican bean accessions were analysed by SDS polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis for variability in phaseolin protein. Six new phaseolin types; M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, which contained polypeptides within the same range of molecular weights (51,000 to 45,000 daltons) as occur in the S, T and C phaseolin types of cultivated beans were identified. No T and C types were found among the non-domesticated Mexican accessions, and the S type occurred in less than 7% of the seeds screened. Genetic analyses of F2 progenies from crosses between Sanilac (S), and five of the M types showed that each M phaseolin phenotype was allelic to the S type and expressed codominantly. 相似文献

Summary Genetic analysis of heading date and spikelet number was carried out in the common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) multispikelet line Noa, by using the monosomic series of the regular line Mara. Noa's high number of spikelets was found to be controlled by a recessive major gene on chromosome 2D; a slight reduction in spikelet number was induced by another recessive gene on Noa's 7A chromosome. Noa's late heading date was found to be controlled by two recessive genes, located on chromosome 2D (a major effect) and 6B (a minor effect). The nature of the genes located on Noa's 2D chromosome and the relationship between spikelet number and heading date are discussed. 相似文献

The relationship of abscisic acid (ABA) and 2-trans-abscisic acid (t-ABA) to alternate bearing has been examined in Wilking mandarin (Citrus reticulata Blanco) trees. Leaves, stems and buds of trees loaded with fruit (on trees) had 4.3, 6.0 and 2.2 fold higher ABA levels than the corresponding organs from off trees. Leaves had higher ABA levels than stems and buds in both on and off trees. t-ABA was non-detectable in Wilking leaf, stem and bud tissue. Amounts of t-ABA not exceeding 40% of the ABA content, were found in Shamouti and Valencia orange buds and in Wilking fruit peel.The elevated levels of ABA in on tree organs may reflect a stress imposed by the fruit overload. 相似文献

We have developed a polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based assay that could effectively reduce the time period required to screen and select for Gall Midgeresistant rice lines under field conditions. The primers for the assay were designed on the basis of sequence information of two phenotype specific random amplified polymorphic DNA fragments which were found to be tightly linked to Gall Midge biotype-1 resistance gene (Gm2). The two RAPD fragments, F81700 in the susceptible parent ARC6650 and F10600 in the resistant parent Phalguna, were identified after screening 5450 loci using 520 random primers on genomic DNAs of ARC6650 and Phalguna. These primers, when used in a multiplexed PCR, amplified specifically a 1.7-kb and 0.6-kb fragment in the susceptible and resistant parents, respectively. When this assay was performed on genomic DNAs of 44 recombinant inbred lines derived from ARC6650 x Phalguna and 5 lines derived from other crosses where one of the parents was Phalguna, ARC6650 or their derivatives, the primers amplified a 1.7-kb fragment in all of the susceptible lines or a 0.6-kb fragment in all of the resistant ones. These markers can be of potential use in the marker-aided selection of Gall Midge biotype-1 resistant phenotypes. As screening for resistance can now be conducted independent of the availability of insects, the breeding of resistant varieties can be hastened. 相似文献

Summary Twelve scented (basmati) and one non-scented variety were analysed for their amino acid composition. The essential amino acid profiles of scented varieties when compared with non-scented, revealed that these varieties exhibited higher values, which ranged from 2.82 to 4.86 gm/100 gm protein for lysine, 1.92 to 3.13 for methionine, 1.67 to 4.23 for tyrosine, 3.65 to 4.91 for phenylalanine, 5.50 to 8.95 for leucine, 2.25 to 3.40 for isoleucine, 2.84 to 3.46 for threonine, 3.36 to 5.33 for valine. When these values were compared to FAO recommended standards, it was observed that most of the scented varieties had comparable or superior values, while varieties such as, Type 3, Basmati sufaid 100, Likitimachi, Randhunipagalu and Basmati 370 showed superior lysine, phenylalanine, leucine, and methionine content. These observations suggest that the scented varieties posses better amino acid profiles and exhibit superior nutritional qualities, which could be utilised in breeding varieties with improved amino acid composition. 相似文献

Oxidative injury and antioxidant responses were investigated in two banana genotypes (Musa AAA Berangan and Musa AA Mas) subjected to 40 % PEG-induced water stress. PEG treatment resulted in oxidative injury, as expressed in increased lipid peroxidation and reduced membrane stability index, in both cultivars; however, greater oxidative injury was detected in Mas. Under PEG treatment, catalase activity and glutathione reductase activity were enhanced in both cultivars, but were higher in Mas. Ascorbate peroxidase activity was enhanced in Berangan under water stress, but was unaffected in Mas. Meanwhile, superoxide dismutase activity was inhibited in both cultivars under water stress, but higher activity was detected in Berangan. Higher ascorbate peroxidase and superoxide dismutase activities were associated with greater protection against water stress-induced oxidative injury. 相似文献

There might be an undetermined order in the interaction of the substrates with the ribosomes in the reaction of CACCA-Leu-Ac with puromycin to form Ac-Leu-puromycin and CACCA (fragment reaction). Km 0°=6×10-4 M for the puromycin · ribosome interaction. Chloramphenicol totally blocks the fragment reaction as a consequence of a single interaction with the ribosome of Kd 0°=2.2×10-6 M. The inhibition by chloramphenicol of the fragment reaction is mixed competitive for puromycin. 相似文献

Summary Restriction fragment length polymorphisms of chloroplast (ct), mitochondrial (mt) and nuclear DNA were investigated using eight cultivars of Oryza sativa and two cultivars of O. glaberrima. Relative variability in the nuclear and cytoplasmic genomes was estimated by a common measure, genetic distance. Based on the average genetic distances among ten cultivars for each genome, the evolutionary variabilities of the mitochondrial and nuclear genomes were found to be almost the same, whereas the variability of the chloroplast genome was less than half that of the other two genomes. Cluster analyses on ct and mt DNA variations revealed that chloroplast and mitochondrial genomes were conservative within a taxon and that their differentiations were well-paralleled with respect to each other. For nuclear DNA variation, an array of different degrees of differentiation was observed in O. sativa, in contrast with little variation in O. glaberrima. As a whole, differentiation between O. sativa and O. glaberrima was clearly observed in all three genomes. In O. sativa, no notable difference was found between the cultivars Japonica and Javanica, whereas a large differentiation was noticed between Japonica (including Javanica) and Indica. In all three genomes, the average genetic distances within Indica were much larger than those within Japonica (including Javanica), and almost similar between Japonica (including Javanica) and Indica. These facts indicate that differentiation in O. sativa was due mainly to Indica. 相似文献

Pre-emergence damping-off tests indicate that Pythiumspp. from pond water can be divided into two categories: avirulent Pythium (P. diclinum, P. marsipium, P. middletonii, P. monospermum, P. pleroticum, P. undulatum)and weakly virulent Pythium (P. catenulatum, P. coloratum, P. dissotocum, P. papillatum, Pythium Group F, Pythium group HS, Pythium group P, Pythiumgroup T). Post-emergence damping-off tests indicate that the pythia tested can also be divided into three categories: avirulent Pythium (P. catenulatum, P. dissotocum, P. marsipium, P. monospermum, P, papillatum, P. pleroticum, P. undulatum, Pythium group F, Pythium group T),weakly virulent Pythium (P. coloratum, P. diclinum, P. middletonii, Pythiumgroup P and moderately virulent Pythium (Pythium group HS). 相似文献

DNA-degrading enzymes of 24.0 kDa and 27.0 kDa were observed to have different activities in two common wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars, Wichita and Cheyenne. A substrate-based SDS-PAGE assay revealed that these two enzymes were much more active in Wichita than in Cheyenne. Genes controlling the activities of these two enzymes were localized on chromosome 2D by testing DNA-degrading activities in reciprocal chromosome substitution lines between Wichita and Cheyenne. While the allele on Wichita chromosome 2D stimulated the activities of the 24.0- and 27.0-kDa enzymes in Cheyenne, the allele on Cheyenne chromosome 2D did not reduce the activities of the 24-kDa and 27-kDa enzymes in Wichita. Whether these genes code for the DNA-degrading enzymes themselves or for factors that regulate the enzyme activities remains unknown.This work was supported in part by USDA-Competitive Research Grants Office grant No. 90-37140-5426 to P.S.B.

Summary An experimental manipulation of clutch size was carried out on a wild population of the cooperatively breeding Bell Miner (Manorina melanophrys, Meliphagidae) to assess which factor(s) limit clutch size in this species. Results provide some support for the trade-off hypothesis since there is a cost of reproduction for the breeding female in terms of loss of body mass. The breeding female performs most of the nestling care. Clutches of three eggs are also laid during the mid-breeding season which is the period most favourable for breeding (i.e. nestlings grow faster). This evidence also supports the intrabrood competition hypothesis. Clutches that have lost an egg were more likely to be deserted; this may be an antipredator strategy since partial clutch predation has been recorded in the field. Nest predation was high in this study (64.9%), suggesting that many small clutches may be a strategy to decrease the effect of nest predation on reproductive success over the whole breeding season (nest predation hypothesis). Both the trade-off hypothesis and the nest predation hypothesis may apply in this case since they are not mutually exclusive. The size of the attending group did not greatly affect reproductive success in the short term, although if both age structure and size of the group are taken into account, reproductive success can be better predicted. 相似文献

Involvement of ABA in postharvest life of miniature potted roses 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

Exogenous application of ABA (abscisic acid) to intact miniature potted rose plants (Rosa hybrida L.) resulted in deterioration of postharvest quality of two cultivars. Spraying with ABA increased leaf drop and accelerated flower senescence in Vanilla and Bronze, while bud drop was only induced in Bronze. Application of ABA to detached rose flowers accelerated their senescence, indicating that the observed senescence promoting effect was not a secondary response resulting from ABA-induced leaf senescence and abscission. ABA-treatment increased ethylene production in Bronze flowers, while no ethylene production was measured in flowers of Vanilla, or in the leaves of both cultivars. Pre-treatment with 1-MCP (1-methylcyclopropene) delayed ABA promoted flower senescence in Bronze, suggesting that the effect of ABA is at least partly mediated by ethylene. The senescence promoting effect of ABA on leaf drop and flower life of Vanilla flowers was not counteracted by 1-MCP pre-treatment. The cultivar Vanilla had a low ABA level at all flower stages, while ABA content of the Bronze petals was high in buds, lower in open flowers, and increased during flower senescence. An increased ABA content after ethylene treatment in Vanilla suggests that ethylene, natural or exogenous, can increase ABA levels of flowers. 相似文献

The content of abscisic acid (ABA) in bulbs of two Allium wakegi Araki cultivars, Kiharabansei No. 1 (dormant type) and Ginoza (nondormant type), was similar and changed similarly during the development and storage of the bulbs. It increased during bulb development, reached a maximum shortly after bulb harvesting, and gradually decreased during bulb storage. The bulbs of Kiharabansei No. 1 showed dormancy correlated with the change in ABA content, but those of Ginoza did not show significant dormancy throughout the experimental period. The ABA content in the buds of dormant bulbs of Kiharabansei No. 1 did not change after planting of bulbs, but that of nondormant bulbs of Ginoza planted on the same day rapidly decreased after planting. Application of ABA to bulbs delayed sprouting of both cultivars, but dormant bulbs of Kiharabansei No. 1 had higher sensitivity to ABA than the bulbs of Ginoza or the bulbs of Kiharabansei No. 1 partly released from dormancy. These results suggest that the decrease in the ABA content after planting (watering) and low sensitivity to ABA are correlated with the nondormancy of Ginoza. 相似文献

This paper argues against the bicycle pump model of source-sink relationships. It suggests that it is more fruitful to examine the systems which control sink morphogenesis. This argument is illustrated by reference to the cauliflower curd (inflorescence). In any given curd the weights of successive florets (primary branches) fluctuate above and below their expected values. The fluctuations are not due to restricted vascular pipelines, nor to competitive interactions between neighbouring sinks. They are due to highly systematic fluctuations in the timing of floret initiation, and they entail similar fluctuations in primordium position. The phenomenon can be explained by assuming a control system for cytokinesis in which (i) the position of the cell plate responds to mechanical stress (ii) the degree of responsiveness varies cyclically both in time, and around the apical meristem. It seems from this and other evidence that there are strong local controls of sink development in cauliflower. 相似文献
