Poplar, a fast-growing species widely used outside its original area of distribution, was evaluated in the present study to verify its tolerance and hardening to waterlogging in anticipation of its implementation in rehabilitation practices for marginal lands subjected to flooding. Three water regimes were applied to the plants, grown in pots, with two clones (I-488 and D-64) with different sensitivities to flooding. These plants included a lot consisting of control plants (C), which were irrigated with good drainage, a non-preconditioned lot (NPr), and a third lot that was preconditioned to flooding (Pr). Furthermore, flooding was imposed on NPr and Pr plants by submerging pots up to 5 cm above the collar for 60 days followed by a 40-day recovery period. At the end of these two periods, shoot dry mass, foliar concentrations of certain ions, soluble sugars, starch and proline, and the relative electrolyte leakage were evaluated. The preconditioning treatment conferred different degrees of hardness on the treated plants compared with NPr plants. Our results revealed that high carbohydrate availability (soluble sugars and starch) is suggested to participate in sustaining membrane integrity which may affect the recuperative potential of Pr plants, notably those of clone I-488, from flooding damage. 相似文献

Recently, the gene coding for a new beta-glucuronidase enzyme has been identified and cloned from Streptococcus equi subsp. zooepidemicus. This is another report of a beta-glucuronidase gene cloned from bacterial species. The ORF Finder analysis of a sequenced
DNA (EMBL, AJ890474) revealed a presence of 1,785 bp large ORF potentially coding for a 594 aa protein. Three protein families
in (Pfam) domains were identified using the Conserved Domain Database (CDD) analysis: Pfam 02836, glycosyl hydrolases family
2, triose phosphate isomerase (TIM) barrel domain; Pfam 02837, glycosyl hydrolases family 2, sugar binding domain; and Pfam
00703, glycosyl hydrolases family 2, immunoglobulin-like beta-sandwich domain. To gain more insight into the enzymatic activity,
the domains were used to generate a bootstrapped unrooted distance tree using ClustalX. The calculated distances for two domains,
TIM barrel domain, and sugar-binding domain were comparable and exhibited similarity pattern based on function and thus being
in accordance with recently published works confirming beta-glucuronidase activity of the enzyme. The calculated distances
and the tree arrangement in the case of centrally positioned immonoglobulin-like beta-sandwich domain were somewhat higher
when compared to other two domains but clustering with other beta-glucuronidases was rather clear. Nine proteins, including
beta-glucuronidases, beta-galactosidase, and mannosidase were selected for multiple alignment and subsequent distance tree
creation. 相似文献

Interspecific somatic hybrids between a diploid potato clone DG 81-68 susceptible to Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary and a resistant diploid tuber-bearing species Solanum × michoacanum were generated and analyzed. About 30 regenerants displaying an intermediate morphology were obtained as a result of three
separate PEG-mediated fusion experiments. The RAPD analysis confirmed the hybridity of all the regenerants. About 50% of the
hybrid plants exhibited vigorous growth and were stable in culture, while the rest of them rooted poorly and grew slowly in
vitro. Most of the hybrid clones were at the tetraploid level (70%), while 30% of the clones examined were at the hexaploid
level. The S. × michoacanum (+) DG 81-68 hybrids with growth anomalies were aneuploid. The variation in late blight resistance of the hybrid clones was
found in detached leaflet tests, with enhanced resistance characteristic for three tetraploid hybrids. 相似文献

Root segments from seedlings of Panax ginseng produced adventitious roots directly when cultured on 1/2 MS solid medium lacking NH4NO3 and containing 3.0 mg l−1 IBA. Using this adventitious root formation, we developed rapid and efficient transgenic root formation directly from adventitious
root segments in P. ginseng. Root segments were co-cultivated with Agrobacterium tumefaciens (GV3101) caring β-glucuronidase (GUS) gene. Putative transgenic adventitious roots were formed directly from root segments on medium with 400 mg l−1 cefotaxime and 50 mg l−1 kanamycin. Kanamycin resistant adventitious roots were selected and proliferated as individual lines by subculturing on medium
with 300 mg l−1 cefotaxime and 50 mg l−1 kanamycin at two weeks subculture interval. Frequency of transient and stable expression of GUS gene was enhanced by acetosyringon (50 mg l−1) treatment. Integration of transgene into the plants was confirmed by the X-gluc reaction, PCR and Southern analysis. Production
of transgenic plants was achieved via somatic embryogenesis from the embryogenic callus derived from independent lines of
adventitious roots. The protocol for rapid induction of transgenic adventitious roots directly from adventitious roots can
be applied for a new Agrobacterium tumefaciens-mediated genetic transformation protocol in P. ginseng. 相似文献

Many different processes have an impact on the shape of plant karyotype. Recently, cytogenetic examination of Lolium species has revealed the occurrence of spontaneous fragile sites (FSs) associated with 35S rDNA regions. The FSs are defined as the chromosomal regions that are sensitive to forming gaps or breaks on chromosomes. The shape of karyotype can also be determined by interstitial telomeric sequences (ITSs), what was recognized for the first time in this paper in chromosomes of Festuca pratensis × Lolium perenne hybrids. Both FSs and ITSs can contribute to genome instabilities and chromosome rearrangements. To evaluate whether these cytogenetic phenomena have an impact on karyotype reshuffling observed in Festuca × Lolium hybrids, we examined F1 F. pratensis × L. perenne plants and generated F2-F9 progeny by fluorescent in situ hybridization (FISH) using rDNA sequences, telomere and centromere probes, as well as by genomic in situ hybridization (GISH). Analyses using a combination of FISH and GISH revealed that intergenomic rearrangements did not correspond to FSs but overlapped with ITSs for several analyzed genotypes. It suggests that internal telomeric repeats can affect the shape of F. pratensis × L. perenne karyotypes. However, other factors that are involved in rearrangements and have a more crucial impact could exist, but they are still unknown. 相似文献

We undertook a field study to determine whether comb cell size affects the reproductive behavior of Varroa destructor under natural conditions. We examined the effect of brood cell width on the reproductive behavior of V. destructor in honey bee colonies, under natural conditions. Drone and worker brood combs were sampled from 11 colonies of Apis mellifera. A Pearson correlation test and a Tukey test were used to determine whether mite reproduction rate varied with brood cell
width. Generalized additive model analysis showed that infestation rate increased positively and linearly with the width of
worker and drone cells. The reproduction rate for viable mother mites was 0.96 viable female descendants per original invading
female. No significant correlation was observed between brood cell width and number of offspring of V. destructor. Infertile mother mites were more frequent in narrower brood cells. 相似文献

The lipase Lip2 of the edible basidiomycete, Pleurotus sapidus, is an extracellular enzyme capable of hydrolysing xanthophyll esters with high efficiency. The gene encoding Lip2 was expressed
in Escherichia coli TOP10 using the gene III signal sequence to accumulate proteins in the periplasmatic space. The heterologous expression under
control of the araBAD promoter led to the high level production of recombinant protein, mainly as inclusion bodies, but partially
in a soluble and active form. A fusion with a C-terminal His tag was used for purification and immunochemical detection of
the target protein. This is the first example of a heterologous expression and periplasmatic accumulation of a catalytically
active lipase from a basidiomycete fungus. 相似文献

The feasibility of later-generation hybrid production in ferns has not been previously studied, although it is a significant
factor in relation to reproductive isolation. Osmunda × intermedia, a hybrid between O. japonica and O. lancea, is semifertile and has moderate spore germination rates. Under the artificial conditions of this study, F2 and F3 offspring
were formed. Some of the F2 offspring showed precocity, and some of the F3 offspring also showed precocity. This fertility
suggests that introgressive hybridization might be ongoing in nature. This also indicates a currently unknown genetic control
over the timing of fertile frond production in Osmunda. 相似文献

The AFLP genetic linkage maps for two poplar cultivars were constructed with the pseudo-test-cross mapping strategy. The hybrids were derived from an interspecific backcross between the female hybrid clone TB01 (Populus tomentosa × Populus bolleana) and the male clone LM50 (P. tomentosa). A total of 782 polymorphic fragments were obtained with a PCR-based strategy using 49 enzyme-nested (EcoRI/MseI) primer combinations. Six hundred and thirty two of these fragments segregated in a 1:1 ratio (P<0.01), indicating that these DNA polymorphisms are heterozygous in one parent and null in the other. The linkage analysis was performed using Mapmaker version 3.0 with LOD 5.0 and a maximum recombination fraction () of 0.3. Map distances were estimated using the Kosambi mapping function. In the framework map for LM50 (P. tomentosa), 218 markers were aligned in 19 major linkage groups. The linked loci spanned approximately 2,683 cM of the poplar genome, with an average distance of 12.3 cM between adjacent markers. For TB01 (P. tomentosa × P. bolleana), the analysis revealed 144 loci, which were mapped to 19 major linkage groups and covered about 1,956 cM, with an average distance of 13.6 cM between adjacent markers. These maps covered about 87% and 77% of the estimated genome size of parents LM50 and TB01, respectively. The maps developed in this study lay an important foundation for future genomics research in poplar, providing a means for localizing genes controlling economically important traits in P. tomentosa.Communicated by O.

We studied heterologous expression of xylanase 11A gene of Chaetomium thermophilum in Pichia pastoris and characterized the thermostable nature of the purified gene product. For this purpose, the xylanase 11A gene of C. thermophilum was cloned in P. pastoris GS115 under the control of AOX1 promoter. The maximum extracellular activity of recombinant xylanase (xyn698: gene with intron) was 15.6 U ml−1 while that of recombinant without intron (xyn669) was 1.26 U ml−1 after 96 h growth. The gene product was purified apparently to homogeneity level. The optimum temperature of pure recombinant
xylanase activity was 70°C and the enzyme retained its 40.57% activity after incubation at 80°C for 10 min. It exhibited quite
lower demand of activation energy, enthalpy, Gibbs free energy, entropy, and xylan binding energy during substrate hydrolysis
than that required by that of the donor, thus indicating its thermostable nature. pH-dependent catalysis showed that it was
quite stable in a pH range of 5.5–8.5. This revealed that gene was successfully processed in P. pastoris and remained heat stable and may qualify for its potential use in paper and pulp and animal feed applications. 相似文献

A gene encoding endochitinase from Trichoderma virens UKM-1 was cloned and expressed in E. coli BL21 (DE3). Both the endochitinase gene and its cDNA sequences were obtained. The endochitinase gene encodes 430 amino acids
from an open reading frame comprising of 1,690 bp nucleotide sequence with three introns. The endochitinase was expressed
as soluble and active enzyme at 20°C when induced with 1 mM IPTG. Maximum activity was observed at 4 h of post-induction time.
SDS-PAGE showed that the purified endochitinase exhibited a single band with molecular weight of 42 kDa. Biochemical characterization
of the enzyme displayed a near neutral pH characteristic with an optimum pH at 6.0 and optimum temperature at 50°C. The enzyme
is stable between pH 3.0–7.0 and is able to retain its activity from 30 to 60°C. The presence of Mg2+ and Ca2+ ions increased the enzyme activity up to 20%. The purified enzyme has a strong affinity towards colloidal chitin and low
effect on ethyl cellulose and D-cellubiose which are non-chitin related substrates. HPLC analysis from the chitin hydrolysis
showed the release of (GlcNAc)3, (GlcNAc)2 and GlcNAc, in which (GlcNAc)2 was the main product. 相似文献

The reactions of isolates of Phytophthora cactorum, P. nicotianae and P. × pelgrandis to metalaxyl, mancozeb, dimethomorph, streptomycin and chloramphenicol were tested to obtain information about the variability of resistance in these pathogens. Distinct genetic groups showed significant differences in resistance to all tested substances except streptomycin. In response to streptomycin, the growth inhibition rates of distinct groups did not differ significantly. The most remarkable differences were detected in the reactions to chloramphenicol and metalaxyl. Discriminant analysis evaluating the effect of all substances confirmed the differences among the groups, which are in agreement with the differences revealed by earlier DNA analyses. 相似文献

An efficient regeneration protocol for genetic transformation was developed from the leaves of an 11-year-old Phtinia × fraseri “Red Robin” tree. A high frequency of adventitious buds (88.63 ± 1.38%) and the highest maximum mean number of adventitious
buds per explant (4.65 ± 0.48) were obtained in light conditions on Murashige–Skoog (MS) medium containing 2 mg l−1 benzyladenine (BA) and 0.2 mg l−1 α-Naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). After preculturing for 6 days, over 95% of the shoots successfully rooted on 1/2 MS medium
supplemented with 0.3 mg l−1 indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) within 3 weeks. For genetic transformation, two crucial parameters (30 mg l−1 kanamycin for selection and 30-min suspension time) were optimized. Taken together, a reliable transformation system with
an efficiency of more than 5% was established. This genetic transformation protocol can be utilized for further genetic manipulation
of the Photinia tree. 相似文献

Complementary attributes of Festuca and Lolium grasses can be combined in hybrid cultivars called Festuloliums, which are becoming increasingly popular fodder crops and
amenity plants. Genomic constitution of commercially available Festuloliums was reported to vary from almost equal representation
of parental genomes to apparent lack of one of them based on molecular cytogenetic analyses and screening with a small set
of DNA markers, both approaches with limited resolution. Here, we describe the use of the DArTFest array comprising 3,884
polymorphic DArT markers for characterization of genomes in five Festulolium cultivars. In any of the cultivars, the minimum
number of informative markers, which discriminated the parental Lolium and Festuca genomes was 361 and 171, respectively. Using the DArTFest array, it was possible to determine hybrid genome constitution
at resolution which has never been achieved before and the analysis of a set of randomly selected plants from each cultivar
provided information on genetic structure of outcrossing Festulolium cultivars. In addition to a core set of markers typical
for each hybrid cultivar, markers occurring at low frequency among the plants within each cultivar were identified. Biological
significance of genomic loci associated with the rare markers is yet to be determined. Finally, with the aim to simplify the
use of DArTFest arrays to characterize Festuca × Lolium hybrids, various bulking strategies were compared. While all bulks were suitable for identification of hybrids, only bulks
of few plants have been found to reveal the rare markers. 相似文献

The genotyping of 75 trees from poplar plantations in St. Petersburg and Leningrad oblast was conducted with microsatellite markers to identify the elite clonal varieties developed by P.L. Bogdanov in the period of 1938–1965. The information about the varieties was lost. The authentic herbarium specimens of poplar clonal varieties preserved at the St. Petersburg State Forest Technical University were used as reference genotypes. According to the results of DNA fingerprinting, we identified the clonal plantations of Populus × newesis Bogd. and Populus × leningradensis Bogd. from the Kartashevskii forest district and the arboretum of the St. Petersburg State Forest Technical University. The identified elite poplar hybrids have a higher frost resistant and a higher growth rate. They are recommended for plantation cultivation in the northwest of Russia. 相似文献

A novel 4-hydroxyphenylpyruvate dioxygenase gene (designated as Smhppd) was cloned from hairy roots of Salvia
miltiorrhiza Bung. The full-length cDNA of Smhppd was 1,736 bp long with an ORF (open reading frame) that putatively encoded a polypeptide of 481 amino acids, with a predicted
molecular mass of 52.54 kDa. The deduced amino acid sequence of the Smhppd gene shared high homology with other known HPPDs. Analysis of Smhppd genomic DNA revealed that it contained two exons and one intron. The analysis of Smhppd promoter region was also presented. Southern-blot analysis revealed that the Smhppd was a low-copy gene in S.
miltiorrhiza. Real-time quantitative PCR analysis indicated that Smhppd was constitutively expressed in roots, stems and leaves of S.
miltiorrhiza, with the high expression in roots. In addition, Smhppd expreession level under different stress condition was also analyzed during the hairy root culture period, including signaling
components for plant defence responses, such as methyl jasmonate and salicylic acid, as well as an abiotic elicitor, Ag+ and a biotic elicitor, yeast extract. This study will enable us to further understand the role Smhppd plays in the synthesis of active pharmaceutical compounds in S.
miltiorrhiza at molecular level. 相似文献

Alginate encapsulation is a simple and cost-effective technique to preserve plant germplasm but there are only a few reports
available on preservation of encapsulated explants of two highly valuable groups of tropical trees, the eucalypts (Myrtaceae)
and mahoganies (Meliaceae). This study investigated alginate encapsulation for preservation of the eucalypt hybrid, Corymbia torelliana × C. citriodora, and the African mahogany, Khaya senegalensis. We assessed shoot regrowth of encapsulated shoot tips and nodes after storage for 0, 3, 6 and 12 months on media varying
in sucrose and nutrient content, under storage conditions of 14°C and zero-irradiance. Encapsulated explants of both trees
were preserved most effectively on high-nutrient (half-strength Murashige and Skoog) medium containing 1% sucrose, which provided
very high frequencies of shoot regrowth (92–100% for Corymbia and 71–98% for Khaya) and excellent shoot development after 12 months’ storage. This technique provides an extremely efficient means for storage
and exchange of eucalypts and mahoganies, ideally suited for incorporation into plant breeding and germplasm conservation
programs. 相似文献
