紫花含笑(♀)与灰岩含笑(♂)及其杂种F1代叶表皮微形态和叶结构的比较观察

通过比较观察紫花含笑(♀)和灰岩含笑(♂)及其杂种F₁代叶表皮微形态和叶结构发现,紫花含笑和灰岩含笑在叶表皮微形态及叶解剖结构方面有很大差异。杂种F₁代个体间在叶表皮微形态及叶解剖结构方面变异很大,为连续的数量遗传;其中57.7%以上的杂种F₁代气孔密度高于父母本。杂种F₁代矮化型植株叶片气孔密度较小,推测其抗寒性较强,可以通过进一步杂交改良,获得矮化型的盆栽含笑新品种。观察结果可为深入探讨含笑属种间杂种F₁代的遗传变异,并从这些杂种F₁代中选育观赏新品种积累科学资料。

遮荫处理下多脉青冈和金叶含笑的叶解剖结构变化研究

运用结构植物学方法,以多脉青冈（Cyclobalanopsis multinervis)和金叶含笑(Michelia foveolata)2年生苗为材料,进行全光照处理和遮荫处理下叶结构观察比较。结果显示,长期遮荫处理下,多脉青冈和金叶含笑新生叶的表皮细胞变薄,栅栏组织变得稀疏,层数有减少趋势,海绵组织更加疏松;多脉青冈的叶角质层退化。表明长期的弱光照下,2种树种的新生叶叶结构产生了适廊性的变化,其适应程度可以推测植物对光环境变化的适应能力强弱和进化潜力,研究结果对预测园林树种的光适应能力和结构进化有一定意义。

深山含笑传粉生物学研究

为明确深山含笑(Michelia maudiae)的传粉生物学特性,该文以西华师范大学校园内的深山含笑为研究材料,采取野外观察法记录了深山含笑的开花动态、访花者及访花频率;用游标卡尺法,测定了深山含笑的异交指数(OCI);用醋酸洋红法,测定了花粉胚珠比(P/O);用套袋和人工授粉法,测定了深山含笑的繁育系统。结果表明:(1)深山含笑为早春开花植物,其种群花期为2~3月,持续30d左右,单花花期5~6d;在单花开放初期,最内层的花瓣未绽开,是适应潮湿或多雨的环境而保护花药与柱头免受雨水的冲刷,提高雌雄性适合度,确保繁殖成功的一种策略;(2)深山含笑的有效传粉者为蜜蜂,访花时间集中在晴朗天气的中午;(3)深山含笑的异交指数(OCI)等于5,花粉胚珠比(P/O)为2 933±50;(4)深山含笑为雄蕊先熟,柱头可授性在开花第2~3天达到最高;(5)套袋和人工授粉表明深山含笑为兼性自交和异交授粉,其中异交授粉的座果率和结籽率显著高于自交授粉。早春开花的深山含笑,其传粉者为单一的蜜蜂,繁育系统为异交,部分自交亲和,结果为引种栽培、良种选育等提供依据更好地利用和保护此资源奠定基础。

ATR autophosphorylation as a molecular switch for checkpoint activation

The ataxia telangiectasia-mutated and Rad3-related (ATR) kinase is a master checkpoint regulator safeguarding the genome. Upon DNA damage, the ATR-ATRIP complex is recruited to sites of DNA damage by RPA-coated single-stranded DNA and activated by an elusive process. Here, we show that ATR is transformed into a hyperphosphorylated state after DNA damage, and that a single autophosphorylation event at Thr 1989 is crucial for ATR activation. Phosphorylation of Thr 1989 relies on RPA, ATRIP, and ATR kinase activity, but unexpectedly not on the ATR stimulator TopBP1. Recruitment of ATR-ATRIP to RPA-ssDNA leads to congregation of ATR-ATRIP complexes and promotes Thr 1989 phosphorylation in trans. Phosphorylated Thr 1989 is directly recognized by TopBP1 via the BRCT domains 7 and 8, enabling TopBP1 to engage ATR-ATRIP, to stimulate the ATR kinase, and to facilitate ATR substrate recognition. Thus, ATR autophosphorylation on RPA-ssDNA is a molecular switch to launch robust checkpoint response.     

Phytophthora infestans in Poland from 1987–1989; Nuclear DNA Content, Mating Type Distribution and Response to Metalaxyl

Isolates of Phytophthora infestans were collected from all potato growing regions of Poland during the blight seasons of 1987—1989. All 1987 isolates were of Al mating type and were sensitive to metalaxyl. In 1988 and 1989, 46.5 % and 55.3 % of the isolates were sensitive to metalaxyl, respectively. The percentage of highly resistant (R) isolates increased from 25.6 % in 1988 to 39.5 % in 1989; however the percentage of intermediately resistant (I) isolates decreased during that period from 27.9 % to 5.3 %. A significant association was observed between the A1 compatibility type and metalaxyl resistance. The A2 mating type first appeared in 1988, and its frequency increased from 4.7 % of the population in 1988 to 47.6 % in 1989. Coincident with this change in mating type frequency, changes in ploidy levels of isolates were observed. Whereas 3 % of the 1988 isolates were diploid, 90 % of the 1989 A2 isolates and 28.6 % of the 1989 Al isolates were diploid. The approximate 1:1 ratio of the two mating types encountered in 1989, and the predominance of diploidy, indicates that the Polish population of P. infestans has the potential to become sexual.     

Regulation of bacterioplankton production and biomass in an oligotrophic cleanvater lake--the importance of the phytoplankton community

Estimations of bacterioplankton production and biomass werecarried out in enclosure experiments during two consecutiveyears (1989 and 1990) in oligotrophic clearwater Lake Njupfatet.The lake was limed in November 1989, and the experiments werecarried out both in 1989 (unlimed) and in 1990 (limed). Bags(3001) were manipulated with inorganic phosphorus and nitrogen,organic carbon, and metazoan zooplankton abundance. Both years,bacterial production was stimulated by inorganic nutrients aloneand in combination with organic carbon. However, the increasein bacterial production when inorganic nutrients were addedalone was much stronger in 1990 than in 1989. In 1989. bacterialproduction increased strongly only when inorganic nutrientsand organic carbon were added together. The phytoplankton communitywas dominated by the cyanobacterium Merismopedia tenuis-simaduring 1989, and the phytoplankton biomass increased only slightlywhen receiving inorganic nutrients. In 1990, when the lake hadbeen limed. M.tenuissima had completely disappeared and thephytoplankton community, dominated by Chrysophyceae and Chlorophyceae,responded strongly to additions of inorganic nutrients. Theincreased phytoplankton productivity in 1990 may have resultedin increased release of organic carbon, and this in turn thatthe carbon limitation of bacterioplankton production decreasedfrom 1989 to 1990. Zooplankton had a positive effect on bacterioplanktonproduction in 1989, but no effect in 1990. The loss of bacterialbiomass approximated 60% of the bacterial production in 1989,while in 1990 it almost equalled the bacterioplankton production.

Networks and the best approximation property

Networks can be considered as approximation schemes. Multilayer networks of the perceptron type can approximate arbitrarily well continuous functions (Cybenko 1988, 1989; Funahashi 1989; Stinchcombe and White 1989). We prove that networks derived from regularization theory and including Radial Basis Functions (Poggio and Girosi 1989), have a similar property. From the point of view of approximation theory, however, the property of approximating continuous functions arbitrarily well is not sufficient for characterizing good approximation schemes. More critical is the property ofbest approximation. The main result of this paper is that multilayer perceptron networks, of the type used in backpropagation, do not have the best approximation property. For regularization networks (in particular Radial Basis Function networks) we prove existence and uniqueness of best approximation.     

Changes in brain gonadotropin-releasing hormone, plasma estradiol 17-beta, and progesterone during the final reproductive cycle of the female sea lamprey, Petromyzon marinus.

Changes in ovarian morphology, brain gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH), plasma estradiol, and progesterone were examined during the 1988 and 1989 spawning migrations of the adult female sea lamprey, Petromyzon marinus. There were significant increases through time in brain GnRH (1989) and plasma estradiol (1988 and 1989), with progesterone levels fluctuating (1988 and 1989) during the freshwater phase of the spawning migrations. In 1989, brain GnRH and plasma estradiol levels gradually increased through time until just prior to spawning when levels decreased. During 1988, there were no significant changes in GnRH, which may reflect lower temperatures in that year. These data provide new information on brain GnRH during the final maturational processes in the female sea lamprey.
