Ferula paeoniifolia X. G. Ma & C. Y. Liao sp. nov., from Sichuan Province, Southwest China, is described and illustrated. The new species is most similar to F. kingdon‐wardii Wolff in morphology, but differs significantly in its ternate‐2‐pinnate compound leaves with much broader leaflets. The key morphological characteristics and nuclear ribosomal internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region were also compared between F. paeoniifolia and its relatives.  相似文献

Summary Nitrate reductase activity (NRA), nitrate content and biomass components of leaflets, leaf stalks, old stem, current-year stem and roots of ash trees (Fraxinus excelsior L.) growing in their natural habitats were investigated. In addition, NRA, total nitrogen and nitrate concentration were analyzed in the leaves and roots of ash trees from four different field sites. The highest NRA per gram biomass and also per total compartment biomass was found in the leaflets, even though root biomass was much higher than total leaflet biomass. The highest nitrate concentrations were found in the leaf stalks. Correlations between nitrate availability in the soil and NRA in leaves were not significant due to high variability of the actual soil nitrate concentrations. The seasonal variation in foliar NRA, nitrate concentration and total nitrogen concentration is much smaller in F. excelsior than reported for herbaceous species and is mainly caused by changes in the actual soil nitrate availability and by senescence of the leaves.  相似文献

黄秋葵八氢番茄红素脱氢酶基因的克隆与分析   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
该研究根据黄秋葵(Hibiscus esculentus L.)转录组测序获得的八氢番茄红素脱氢酶基因(HePDS)序列(GenBank登录号为MG372370)设计引物,克隆验证得到1条HePDS基因全长为2 020 bp cDNA,开放阅读框(ORF)包含1 686个碱基;预测其编码561个氨基酸,理论分子量为62.62 kD,等电点为8.155;编码的蛋白与海岛棉(Gossypium barbadense)、雷蒙德氏棉(Gossypium raimondii)、陆地棉(Gossypium hirsutum)同源蛋白的相似性均在93%以上,均含有1个保守的二核苷酸结合域和1个类胡萝卜素结合域,显示其高度的保守性。荧光定量PCR 分析表明,HePDS基因在黄秋葵根、茎、叶、花和果荚中均有表达;叶发育过程以嫩叶中表达最高,果实发育中以花后2 d表达量最高。类胡萝卜素含量随着叶、果实发育逐渐升高,成熟叶的含量最高,果实以花后4 d含量最高,且HePDS基因的表达与类胡萝卜素含量存在密切的相关性。该研究结果为进一步探讨HePDS基因的功能和调控机制,以及采用VIGS和CRISPR/Cas9技术开展黄秋葵基因功能的反向遗传学研究奠定了基础。  相似文献

EGTA对Cd胁迫下蓖麻Cd积累和营养元素吸收的影响   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
以‘淄蓖麻5号’蓖麻品种为材料,通过盆栽试验研究了重度Cd土壤污染(100 mg·kg-1)条件下,不同浓度(0、0.5、1.0、2.0 mmol·kg-1)外源螯合剂——乙二醇双(2-氨基乙基醚)四乙酸(EGTA)对蓖麻植株生长、Cd积累和营养元素吸收的影响,探讨外源螯合剂调控Cd污染土壤上植物生长和修复效应。结果显示:(1)在Cd胁迫下,土壤中外源添加0.5~2.0 mmol·kg-1EGTA使蓖麻根系鲜、干重比不添加EGTA对照不同程度降低,但植株总干重没有受到显著影响。(2)外源EGTA能有效促进Cd从蓖麻根部向地上部的转移,2.0 mmol·kg-1的EGTA处理使蓖麻叶片Cd 含量显著增加了41.34倍;与不添加EGTA对照相比,外源EGTA处理蓖麻叶片中Cd积累量随添加EGTA的浓度增加而显著大幅度增加14.0~45.6倍,占相应植株总积累量的36.89%~58.63%,而茎中Cd积累量增加幅度较小,根中Cd积累量则显著降低。(3)Cd胁迫条件下,外源EGTA对蓖麻各器官矿质元素含量的影响不一,EGTA促进K向蓖麻地上部的转运,同时抑制Mg向植株地上部转运;随土壤添加的EGTA浓度提高,蓖麻植株对Ca吸收表现为低促高抑,叶片Zn含量和植株Cu含量逐渐增加,叶片和根系Fe含量及植株各器官Mn含量显著增加。与无Cd胁迫对照相比,EGTA在提高植株Cd积累的同时,降低了根系对K的吸收。研究表明,Cd胁迫显著抑制了蓖麻植株的生长,适宜浓度的外源EGTA对Cd的这种抑制有显著的缓解作用;外源EGTA改变了Cd在蓖麻根、茎、叶中的积累分布情况,提高了Cd从根系向地上部,尤其是向叶片的转移能力,从而强化了蓖麻对Cd污染土壤的修复效率;在采用EGTA强化植物修复Cd污染土壤时,应适量增施K肥以保证植株的正常生理代谢。  相似文献

A collection of nine Myrtus communis samples from different localities of Sicily was evaluated. Morphological traits and production characteristics have been chosen as parameters to arrange the samples into homogeneous groups and to identify the best biotypes for possible future agro‐industrial exploitation. The plant material has been subjected to taxonomic characterization from biometric and phytochemical perspectives. Myrtle berries and leaves have been analyzed for their content in metabolites, applying a cascade extraction protocol for M. communis leaves and a single hydroalcoholic extraction for berries, whereas hydrodistillation procedures have been applied to obtain the essential oils from berries and leaves. The analyses of non‐volatile components were carried out by LC‐UV‐DAD‐ESI‐MS. All the extracts were characterized by the presence of numerous polyphenols, namely highly hydroxylated flavonols such as quercetin and myricetin; and ellagic acid detected in all samples. In addition, myrtle berries contained nine different anthocyanins, namely delphinidin, petunidin, cyanidin and malvidin derivatives. The essential oils (EOs) were analyzed by a combination of GC‐FID and GC/MS. A total of 33 and 34 components were fully characterized with the predominance of α‐pinene, myrtenyl acetate, linalool, 1,8‐cineole and linalyl acetate. All phytochemical profiles were subjected to cluster analyses, which allowed subdividing the myrtle samples in different chemical groups.  相似文献

Micromorphological differences in leaves and pollen between two American (Fraxinus americana L., F. pennsylvanica Marshall) and two European (F. angustifolia Vahl, F. excelsior L.) ash species were studied using scanning electron microscope. The types, dimensions and distribution of characteristic trichomes were established and measured. Capitate hairs on the leaves had the same shape in all researched ash species. Acicular hairs were regularly present in two American ash species, but very rarely in the glabrous phase of F. angustifolia and F. excelsior. Only F. americana had coronulate abaxial surface of leaves. Pollen of F. angustifolia and F. excelsior had 3 (tricolpate) apertures, and F. americana and F. pennsylvanica 4 (stephanocolpate) apertures. Based on the appearance of the reticulum it’s possible to clearly distinguish all four species. F. angustifolia and F. pennsylvanica had muri with transversal ridges and seldom granules. Muri of F. excelsior and F. americana had slightly visible transversal ridges, and because of that noticeable granules.  相似文献

Hairy roots were obtained following inoculation of the stems of Lobelia inflata L. with Agrobacterium rhizogenes strain ATCC 15834. These hairy roots contained agropine and mannopine. In addition, lobeline was detected by HPLC and confirmed by mass spectrometry. Various media were tested for the growth of hairy roots as well as for the content of lobeline in hairy roots. The growth rate of hairy roots cultured in Nitsch and Nitsch's medium was approximately one third of those cultured in other media. The lobeline content of hairy roots (18–54 g/g dry weight) cultured in these media was the same order of magnitude compared with that of roots of L. inflata (24 g/g dry weight) cultivated in pots. The hairy roots cultured in Nitsch and Nitsch's medium were morphologically different from those cultured in other media.Abbreviations MS medium Murashige and Skoog's medium - 1/2 MS medium one-half strength of the standard Murashige and Skoog's medium - B5 medium Gamborg's B5 medium - NN medium Nitsch and Nitsch's medium - FW fresh weight - DW dry weight  相似文献

To evaluate the chemotaxonomic significance of the essential oils of 23 populations of 18 Iranian Ferula species, the chemical composition of the oils was investigated by GC/FID and GC/MS. Altogether, 84 constituents, representing 81.3-99.7% of the total composition of the oils, have been identified. The composition of six species of the genus, i.e., F. oopoda, F. foetida, F. behboudiana, F. diversivittata, F. galbaniflua, and F. hezarlalehzarica, has been reported for the first time. The main constituents identified were α-terpinyl acetate (73.3%), 2,3,4-trimethylthiophene (2; 49.0%), sabinene (75.3%), verbenone (5; 69.4%), β-pinene (59.0-66.3%), and (Z)-β-ocimene (41.7%). Cluster analysis (CA) of the percentage content of the essential oil components of the Ferula species resulted in the characterization of four groups, i.e., taxa containing either i) monoterpene hydrocarbons, ii) oxygenated monoterpenes, iii) organosulfur compounds, or iv) monoterpene, sesquiterpene, and aliphatic hydrocarbons as the principal classes of compounds. Based on the results obtained, the chemical independence of F. hirtella from F. szowitsiana and of F. galbaniflua from F. gummosa at the specific level was concluded and their positions as distinct species were confirmed. The chemotaxonomic relationships among the representatives of the genus Ferula have been discussed in detail.  相似文献

ABSTRACT

We investigated the hepatoprotective potential of Ferula communis extract for CCI4 induced liver damage. We used six groups of rats: group 1, untreated control; group 2, CCl4 treated (hepatotoxic); group 3, treated with 150 mg/kg F. communis; group 4, treated with 300 mg/kg F. communis; group 5, treated with CCl4 + 150 mg/kg F. communis; and group 6, treated with CCl4 + 300 mg/kg F. communis. Liver damage was produced by injection of 1 ml/kg CCI4 twice/week. Extracts of F. communis, 150 and 300 mg/kg/day, were administered for 8 weeks. The effects of F. communis were assessed by measuring aspartate aminotransferase (AST), alanine aminotransferase (ALT), γ-glutamyl transferase (GGT) and total bilirubin (T-BIL) levels, and the activities of antioxidant enzymes, superoxide dismutase (SOD) and glutathione peroxidase (GPx) in the liver. The histology and immunohistochemistry of liver tissue were evaluated using hematoxylin and eosin staining, and caspase 3 and 8-OHdG immunostaining. F. communis extract produced significant reductions in elevated levels of ALT, AST, GGT and T-BIL and increased levels of GPx and SOD in rats treated with CCl4. F. communis extract decreased CCl4 induced 8-OHdG formation and caspase 3 activation significantly in hepatocytes, especially at the 150 mg/kg dose. Our findings demonstrate the potential efficacy of F. communis for attenuating CCl4 induced hepatotoxicity and oxidative damage.  相似文献

Phloem sap was collected from white lupin (Lupinus albus L.), cowpea (Vigna unguiculata L.) and castor bean (Ricinus communis L.) and analysed for gibberellins (GAs) using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). A large number of GAs were found in the phloem exudate of all three species, particularly where the sap was collected from pods (white lupin and cowpea) and in these legumes GAs representing both the early C-13-hydroxylation and non-hydroxylation pathways of biosynthesis were identified. In the sap collected from the vegetative tissues of castor bean the number of GAs identified was fewer than that in the other species, representing mainly the non-hydroxylation pathway. Data from sap collected from the pedicel and stylar ends of pods and by making feeds of radiolabelled GAs to seeds in situ in white lupin indicate that the GAs present in the phloem are derived mainly from the vegetative tissues of the plant. No evidence for metabolism of GAs in the phloem could be found.  相似文献

In order to meet the future requirement of using non-antibiotic resistance genes for the production of transgenic plants, we have adapted the selectable marker system PMI/mannose to be used in Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of flax (Linum usitatissimum L.) cv. Barbara. The Escherichia coli pmi gene encodes a phosphomannose isomerase (E.C. 5.1.3.8) that converts mannose-6-phosphate, an inhibitor of glycolysis, into fructose-6-phosphate (glycolysis intermediate). Its expression in transformed cells allows them to grow on mannose-selective medium. The Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain GV3101 (pGV2260) harbouring the binary vector pNOV2819 that carries the pmi gene under the control of the Cestrum yellow leaf curling virus constitutive promoter was used for transformation experiments. Transgenic flax plants able to root on mannose-containing medium were obtained from hypocotyl-derived calli that had been selected on a combination of 20 g L−1 sucrose and 10 g L−1 mannose. Their transgenic state was confirmed by PCR and Southern blotting. Transgene expression was detected by RT-PCR in leaves, stems and roots of in vitro grown primary transformants. The mean transformation efficiency of 3.6%, that reached 6.4% in one experiment was comparable to that obtained when using the nptII selectable marker on the same cultivar. The ability of T1 seeds to germinate on mannose-containing medium confirmed the Mendelian inheritance of the pmi gene in the progeny of primary transformants. These results indicate that the PMI/mannose selection system can be successfully used for the recovery of flax transgenic plants under safe conditions for human health and the environment.  相似文献

Essential oils were produced by flowers of Hyacinthus orientalis L. that had been regenerated in vitro. The production of these oils was affected by the concentration of gibberellic acid and sucrose in the medium and by temperature. The highest concentration of essential oils was obtained when regenerated flowers were cultured in vitro for 3 weeks at 20 °C on Murashige and Skoog's medium that contained 30 g/l sucrose plus 1 mg/l gibberellic acid, whereas the highest amount of essential oils was obtained after a culture period of 3 weeks at 25 °C. The composition of essential oils from flowers that had been regenerated in vitro was compared with that from flowers grown in the field. Essential oils detected by gas-liquid chromatography included nine components in the case of the regenerated flowers and six and ten components in the case of stage 3 and stage 4 flowers grown in the field, respectively. There were four common components, namely, 1-hepten-3-ol, benzyl alcohol, phenethyl alcohol and cinnamyl alcohol. In the regenerated flowers, a single component, phenethyl alcohol, was a major constituent (75%), whereas two compounds, phenethyl alcohol (stage 3, 55%; stage 4, 48%) and cinnamyl alcohol (stage 3, 23%; stage 4, 29%) were the major constituents in the case of flowers grown in the field. Four and five other components were specific to flowers regenerated in vitro and field-grown flowers, respectively.Abbreviations BA 6-benzylaminopurine - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - IAA indole-3-acetic acid - NAA 1-naphthaleneacetic acid - ABA abscisic acid - GA3 gibberellic acid - ACC 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid - ethephon (2-chloroethyl)phosphonic acid - MS medium Murashige and Skoog's medium - GLC gas-liquid chromatography - GC-MS gas chromatography-mass spectrometry - FW fresh weight  相似文献

The ATP-dependent Lon protease is a highly conserved enzyme that is present in archeae, eubacteria, and eukaryotes, and plays an important role in intracellular protein degradation. We have isolated a Lon protease gene, OsLon1, from Oryza sativa. The cDNA contained a 2,655 bp ORF. Comparative analysis showed that OsLon1 shared significant similarity with the previously reported Lon proteases from maize, Arabidopsis, human, and bacteria. Tissue expression pattern analysis revealed that OsLon1 was highly expressed in young leaves, mature leaves, and leaf sheaths but only weakly in young roots, mature roots, and young panicles. The OsLon1 gene was successfully expressed in E. coli and the detected protein size, about 120 kDa, matched the expected molecular mass of the His-tagged OsLon1 protein.  相似文献

Agrobacterium rhizogenes (wild-type strains 8196 and 15834) transformation of pumpkin (Cucurbita pepo L.) intact seedlings grown in vivo, and 6–8-day-old excised cotyledons cultured in axenic conditions was investigated. Transformed (hairy) roots were successfully induced only on the excised cotyledons with the strain 8196, while intact seedlings failed to form hairy roots with either of the two different bacterial strains. Axenic hairy-root cultures established on MS medium without hormones grew vigorously. Mannopine was detected in all transgenic root clones examined. The peroxidase activity in transformed roots was higher compared with normal roots. Electrophoretic analyses of soluble proteins and isoperoxidases showed substantial differences between transformed and normal pumpkin roots.  相似文献

Pleurotus eryngii and P. ferulae, two species belonging to the P. eryngii complex, synthesize laccases, ligninolytic enzymes that play a role in the host-pathogen interaction in the first step of infection. Ecological studies have shown that although both fungi have been recognized as saprophytes, P. eryngii weakly pathogenic when colonizing the roots and stems of Eryngium campestre, whereas P. ferulae is mostly pathogenic to Ferula communis. The paper describes the genomic organization of four putative laccase genes (lac1, lac2, lac3, and lac5-like gene; gene names were assigned on the basis of sequence homologies) of P. eryngii and P. ferulae. The mRNA expression and enzymatic activity of the laccases were analysed under culture conditions where a source of lignin (wheat bran) or lyophilized roots of E. campestre or F. communis were present. These experiments indicated that the four lac-like genes were differentially regulated in the two mushrooms. Specifically, the addition of the lyophilized roots of the respective host plant to the culture media induced an advance in the mRNA expression of the four lac-like genes and a seven-fold higher total laccase activity in P. ferulae than in P. eryngii. The results obtained are discussed in relation to the possible role of laccases in the interaction of P. eryngii and P. ferulae with their respective host.  相似文献

Melastoma (Melastoma malabathricum L.) is an aluminum-accumulating woody plant that accumulates more than 10 000 mg kg–1 of aluminum (Al) in mature leaves. The influence of Al and phosphorus (P) applications on plant growth and xylem sap was examined in the present study in order to elucidate the interaction between Al-induced growth enhancement and P nutrition, and to determine the form of Al for translocation from roots to shoots. Although the Al application significantly increased the growth of Melastomaseedlings with the high P pre-treatment, and P concentrations in the leaves and Pi concentrations in the xylem sap regardless of the P pre-treatment, we could not come to the conclusion that a primary cause of the Al-induced growth enhancement in Melastoma is the stimulation of P uptake. The degree of Al-induced growth enhancement corresponded not with the P concentrations but with the Al concentrations in the plant tissue, suggesting that the Al-induced growth enhancement in Melastoma is primarily caused by Al itself in the plant tissue rather than by the stimulation of P uptake. Through the analysis of organic acids and Al in the xylem sap and plant tissue, the form of Al for translocation from roots to shoots was shown to be an Al-citrate complex that was transformed into Al-oxalate complex for Al storage in the leaves. In addition, the xylem sap of Melastoma seedlings grown in the absence of Al contained higher concentrations of malate. In the presence of Al, however, higher concentrations of citrate were found, indicating that Melastoma changes its organic acid metabolism in the presence or absence of Al; more specifically, it increases the synthesis of citrate.  相似文献

The effect of iron supply on the growth and nodulation ofLupinus angustifolius L. (Gungurru),Lupinus luteus L. (R-1171) andLupinus pilosus Murr. (P20957) was studied in acid solutions. Plants of the three species were grown together in the same solution and inoculated withBradyrhizobium (Lupinus) WU 425. Plants were then grown with or without applied NH4NO3. The lupin species differed greatly in their sensitivity to low iron concentrations in solution withL. pilosus being most tolerant andL. luteus most sensitive.L. pilosus had the highest iron concentration in tissues and had a higher ratio of iron concentration in the youngest fully expanded leaf blades (YEB) to that in roots than the other two species.L. luteus had higher iron concentrations in roots but lower iron concentration in YEB and shoots than didL. angustifolius. The requirements of internal iron for the maximal chlorophyll synthesis in YEB were 65 μg g-1 forL. angustifolius andL. luteus, and 52 μg g-1 forL. pilosus. In contrast to effects on growth, the three species had similar external iron requirements for nodule formation in roots and for maximal nitrogen concentrations in shoots. The results indicate that iron tolerant lupin species require lower internal and external iron supply and have a greater ability than sensitive species to translocate iron from roots to shoots.  相似文献

The degree of relationships withinLactuca sativa and three wild relativesL. serriola, L. saligna, andL. virosa was studied by observing the performance, vigour and fertility of the F 1 hybrids obtained from crosses made in and between the four species. The crosses ofL. saligna ×L. virosa and the reciprocal crosses produced no hybrids.L. saligna andL. virosa are the least related of the four species.L. sativa ×L. serriola and the reciprocal crosses were successful and produced fertile hybrids These two species are genetically very closely related.L. saligna is known to produce, as a female parent, hybrids withL. sativa andL. serriola. Now the reciprocal cross was successful for the first time, so the unability to obtain hybrids in the past was based on the choice of accessions and not caused by unilateral incompatibility.L. virosa ×L. sativa and the reciprocal combination produced hybrids. The combinationL. serriola ×L. virosa produced hybrids with very limited fertility. In contrast to earlier reports (sterile hybrids) one combination of the reciprocal cross too produced hybrids with very limited fertility.—Some of theL. saligna ×L. sativa (and reciprocal) hybrids were found to look strikingly likeL. serriola. This adds evidence for the descent ofL. serriola andL. sativa:L. saligna also made part of the ancestral complex of the cultivated lettuce.  相似文献
