不同类型甜瓜成熟过程中果肉质地及其细胞显微结构的变化

采用质地剖面分析(TPA)和穿刺方法,测定3种不同口感质地的5个甜瓜材料(梗硬果肉的P10和3-6、脆酥果肉的417和20-5以及软果肉的Charentais)不同成熟时期果肉硬度、咀嚼性和黏着性以及脆性和平均硬度,评价甜瓜果肉的质地特性;采用组织切片法观察果肉组织细胞的显微结构,并通过Image-pro plus 6.0软件测定细胞大小参数(细胞面积、周长、长度及宽度)和形状参数(细胞纵横比及圆度),明确不同果肉质地类型甜瓜果实成熟过程中果肉细胞显微结构的变化特征,探讨甜瓜细胞形态参数与果肉质地的关系,为甜瓜品质育种提供理论依据。结果显示:(1)梗硬果肉甜瓜(P10和3-6)的果肉细胞较小,排列紧密;脆酥果肉甜瓜(417和20-5)的细胞较大,排列较疏松;软果肉甜瓜(Charentais)的细胞最大,排列极不规则。(2)不同口感甜瓜果肉在成熟期的细胞面积和周长差异显著,与口感呈显著负相关关系;在成熟过程中,甜瓜果肉细胞面积、周长和长度等表现出不同程度的增大,而细胞纵横比和圆度总体表现为下降趋势,即细胞越来越圆。(3)甜瓜果肉的口感与质地及细胞大小参数呈显著或极显著相关关系;细胞大小与黏着性呈显著或极显著正相关关系(0.951*~0.983**),细胞面积与TPA硬度及脆性呈显著负相关关系(分别为-0.910*和-0.926*),长度和宽度与脆性呈显著负相关关系(分别为-0.884*和-0.894*);细胞形状参数中的圆度与黏着性具有显著相关性(0.936*)。研究表明,口感不同的甜瓜果肉具有显著不同的质地和细胞显微结构,且甜瓜果肉口感与其果肉质地及细胞大小密切相关,即细胞越小,甜瓜果肉质地越硬。     

葡萄果实发育过程中果肉细胞超微结构的观察

用透射电镜观察了“巨峰”葡萄(Vitis vinifera×V.labrusca)果实3个发育时期中果肉细胞超微结构的变化。果实第一次快速生长期的果肉细胞超微结构表现出物质和能量代谢旺盛的特点。缓慢生长期的果实虽外部形态平静少变,但果肉细胞超微结构表现出深刻的变化:细胞核形状特化为裂瓣状是最显著的特点;线粒体数目丰富;粗面内质网槽库膨大形成的囊泡富集,出现向液泡汇融和向质膜靠近的现象;质膜内陷;液泡膜完整。另外,原生质也出现一些降解的现象。但总体结构特点表明果肉细胞在此期处于十分活跃的物质周转代谢和信息交换过程中。果实第二次快速生长期果肉细胞超微结构表现出衰老降解的特点,但线粒体结构依然完整,数量仍然丰富,原生质膜也保持了很好的完整性,这似乎与维持第二次快速生长或成熟有关。

不同黑莓品种果实形态和硬度分析及其解剖结构和微形态特征观察

以3个黑莓(Rubus spp.)品种‘Arapaho’、‘Boysenberry’和‘Kiowa’的成熟果实为实验材料,对果实的形状指标以及硬度进行了测定,并采用石蜡切片技术和扫描电子显微镜分别对3个品种果实的解剖结构以及外果皮及果肉的微形态特征进行了观察;在此基础上,对果实结构与果实硬度的关系进行了探讨.结果表明:品种‘Arapaho’果实的硬度值(0.79 lb·mm-2)大于品种‘Boysenberry’和‘Kiowa’果实的硬度值(0 lb·mm-2):品种‘Arapaho’果实的纵径、横径和单果质量均极显著小于‘Boysenberry’和‘Kiowa’果实.石蜡切片观察结果显示:3个品种的外果皮均较薄且无角质层覆盖,由1～2层表皮细胞组成;其中,品种‘Arapaho’果实的表皮细胞1层、短小且排列紧密,品种‘Boysenberry’果实的表皮细胞2层、细长且排列疏松整齐,品种‘Kiowa’果实的表皮细胞2层、胞壁有褶皱且果面局部凹陷.品种‘Arapaho’的中果皮由大量较完整的薄壁细胞组成并包含没有解体的维管束,而品种‘Boysenberry’和‘Kiowa’的中果皮内均匀分布着解体的薄壁细胞.扫描电镜观察结果显示:品种‘Boysenberry’外果皮具浅波状纹饰、表皮细胞形状不规则,并具稀疏的表皮毛和片状分泌物;品种‘Kiowa’外果皮表面有明显的不规则波纹状纹饰;品种‘Arapaho’外果皮表面纹理紧凑致密、表皮细胞轮廓清晰且形状规则.3个品种的果肉细胞均呈现不同程度的解体现象,但品种‘Arapaho’的果肉细胞中分布有没有解体的胶状物质.根据观察结果推测:黑莓果实果皮和果肉的解剖结构以及微形态特征与其硬度有一定的关系.     

葡萄悬浮细胞长期培养过程中不同继代条件下花青素生产的不稳定性

为了深入研究植物细胞培养生产次生代谢产物不稳定性的机制,以葡萄细胞作为模式体系,研究悬浮培养过程中花青素合成的不稳定性。除了用常规的花青素总含量来表征花青素的生物合成之外,还采用HPLC测定花青素不同组分的含量。结果表明,在长期的继代培养过程中,不仅花青素的含量而且花青素的组成也表现出明显的不稳定性。首次采用了不稳定系数 (δ) 和因素得分 (Factor scores) 来表征植物细胞培养过程中次生代谢生产的不稳定性。培养条件对花青素生物合成的影响实验结果表明,继代周期和接种量均能诱发次生代谢的不稳定性表达,其中接种量的影响相对更大。在考察的 (6.5 d,2.00 g),(7 d,2.00 g),(7.5 d,2.00 g),(7 d,1.60 g) 和 (7 d,2.40 g) 五种不同的继代周期和接种量组合条件中,7 d继代周期和1.60 g接种量最有利于保持花青素的稳定生产。

干旱和盐胁迫对马铃薯试管苗亚细胞结构及生理生化指标的影响

以‘陇薯3号’脱毒试管苗为材料,研究了不同浓度PEG-4000(0、2%、4%、6%、8%)和NaCl(0、25、50、100、200mmol/L)对马铃薯2周大小试管苗根系生长、叶肉细胞超微结构及部分生理生化指标的影响,为筛选耐盐抗旱马铃薯种质提供理论依据。结果显示:(1)随着PEG-4000和NaCl浓度的增加,马铃薯试管苗根总长、根体积、根数均呈现下降趋势,并且胁迫浓度越高时间越长其下降趋势越明显,而盐胁迫处理的下降幅度明显大于PEG胁迫处理。(2)随着PEG-4000和NaCl浓度的增加,马铃薯试管苗叶肉细胞细胞壁明显变厚,发生明显的质壁分离,嗜锇颗粒显著增加,出现大量囊泡,叶绿体损害逐渐加剧,直至完全解体。(3)随着PEG-4000和NaCl浓度的增加,马铃薯试管苗脯氨酸(Pro)含量显著增加,过氧化氢(CAT)和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性显著增强,而其丙二醛(MDA)含量迅速增加,但叶片叶绿素含量持续下降。研究表明,在PEG-4000模拟干旱和NaCl胁迫条件下,马铃薯试管苗叶片叶绿体结构受到严重损害,叶绿素含量显著降低,且胁迫程度越强损害越严重、下降幅度越大;同时,干旱和高盐胁迫也诱导马铃薯试管苗脯氨酸含量和抗氧化酶CAT和SOD活性显著上调,一定程度上缓解了干旱和高盐胁迫的伤害。     

盐胁迫对‘鄞红’葡萄光合特性及叶片细胞结构的影响

采用水培法,研究了不同浓度(0%、0.2%、0.4%、0.6%、0.8%)Na Cl处理对1年生‘鄞红’葡萄幼苗生长、光合特性及叶片细胞结构的影响,为盐碱地‘鄞红’葡萄的栽培提供参考。结果表明:低浓度盐分(Na Cl≤0.4%)对葡萄生长、叶绿素含量、叶片细胞结构、气体交换参数以及叶绿素荧光参数影响不显著。随着盐浓度增大,葡萄生长受到抑制,叶片表皮层、栅栏组织、海绵组织变厚,海绵组织和栅栏组织细胞间隙变大,栅栏组织细胞叶绿体肿胀,内含淀粉粒和嗜锇颗粒变大且增多;同时,叶绿素含量、净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)、胞间CO2浓度(Ci)、蒸腾速率(Tr)、PSⅡ最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ潜在活性(Fv/Fo)、光化学电子传递效率(ETR)、光化学猝灭系数q P以及栅栏组织/海绵组织比逐渐下降,非光化学猝灭系数q N逐渐上升;尤其在0.8%Na Cl浓度胁迫下,葡萄生长、叶绿素含量、叶片细胞结构、气体交换参数以及叶绿素荧光参数均发生显著性变化。由此表明,‘鄞红’葡萄能在较低含盐量(Na Cl≤0.4%)的基质中正常生长。     

Isolation and characterization of cell walls from the mesocarp of mature grape berries (Vitis vinifera)

Cell walls have been isolated from the mesocarp of mature grape (Vitis vinifera L.) berries. Tissue homogenates were suspended in 80% (v/v) ethanol to minimise the loss of water-soluble wall components and wet-sieved on nylon mesh to remove cytoplasmic material. The cell wall fragments retained on the sieve were subsequently treated with buffered phenol at pH 7.0, to inactivate any wall-bound enzymes and to dislodge small amounts of cytoplasmic proteins that adhered to the walls. Finally, the wall preparation was washed with chloroform/methanol (1:1, v/v) to remove lipids and dried by solvent exchange. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the wall preparation was essentially free of vascular tissue and adventitious protein of cytoplasmic origin. Compositional analysis showed that the walls consisted of approximately 90% by weight of polysaccharide and less than 10% protein. The protein component of the walls was shown to be rich in arginine and hydroxyproline residues. Cellulose and polygalacturonans were the major constituents, and each accounted for 30–40% by weight of the polysaccharide component of the walls. Substantial varietal differences were observed in the relative abundance of these two polysaccharides. Xyloglucans constituted approximately 10% of the polysaccharide fraction and the remainder was made up of smaller amounts of mannans, heteroxylans, arabinans and galactans.

Diverse effects of bacterial cell wall components on mast cell degranulation,cysteinyl leukotriene generation and migration

Nowadays there is more and more evidence that mast cells take part in antibacterial defence. Mast cells have the ability to kill bacteria via phagocytose‐dependent or phagocytose‐independent ways and express antimicrobial peptides that can directly kill pathogens at their site of entry. What is more, mast cells are capable of processing bacterial antigens for presentation through class I and II MHC molecules. Some data indicate that these cells can release various proinflammatory mediators in response to activation with bacteria and/or their products, however this information is still far from complete. Therefore, in this study we examined the ability of PGN from Staphylococcus aureus, LPS from Eschericha coli and LAM from Mycobacterium smegmatis to stimulate mature rat mast cell degranulation as well as cysteinyl LT generation. We also studied the influence of these bacterial components on mast cell migration. We found that PGN, LPS and LAM all failed to induce mast cell degranulation and histamine release. At the same time, activation of mast cells with these bacterial antigens resulted in generation and release of significant amounts of LT. Moreover, we documented that, even in the presence of laminin, none of the bacterial antigens used stimulated mast cell migration. However, PGN did induce migration of RANTES‐primed mast cells, and LPS did stimulate mast cell migratory response after priming with IL‐6. Our results show that PGN, LPS and LAM might be among the important bacterial antigens involved in mast cell activation during bacterial infection.

Oral Fimbriae and Papillae in Parasitic Lampreys (Petromyzontiformes)

There are 38 species of living lampreys, 18 parasitic and 20 nonparasitic. The parasitic species feed as adults, while the nonparasitic do not. The taxonomy and systematics of the living lampreys is based primarily on dentition characters. Since the number of oral fimbriae and oral papillae have never been systematically investigated in lampreys, we compared them in 17 of the 18 parasitic lampreys to assess their usefulness as taxonomic characters. Both showed little variation with total length and sex within a species, while exhibiting greater variation between species. Parasitic species belonging to the three lamprey families could be distinguished using the number of oral fimbriae: southern hemisphere Mordaciidae (0) and Geotriidae (55–65) and northern hemisphere Petromyzontidae (81–144). However, the taxonomic usefulness of the two characters at the species level was limited. Ten out of the 17 species of parasitic lampreys were placed into four distinct groups based on their numbers of oral fimbriae, and only in two of these was the character diagnostic. Twelve out of the 17 species were placed into two distinct groups based on their numbers of oral papillae and for none of these was the character diagnostic. Blood feeders and intermediate feeders (blood + flesh) were shown to have significantly higher numbers of oral fimbriae than flesh feeders. The higher numbers of oral fimbriae in the former two types of feeders were presumed to be linked to their greater need to create a good seal for feeding purposes. Blood feeders were also shown to have significantly higher numbers of oral papillae than either intermediates or flesh feeders. The higher numbers of oral papillae in the blood feeders were presumed to be linked to their greater need to find suitable attachment sites for feeding purposes.     

THE POLYMORPHIC DIATOM PHAEODACTYLUM TRICORNUTUM: ULTRASTRUCTURE OF ITS MORPHOTYPES1,2

The ultrastructure of the oval, fusiform and triradiate morphotypes of Phaeodactylum tricornutum Bohlin is described. The organization and structure of the cytoplasmic organelles is similar in all three morphotypes, except that the vacuoles occupy the extra volume created by the arms of the fusiform and triradiate cells. The frustule in fusiform and triradiate cells is organic; in the oval type it may be organic or one of the valves may have a silica frustule surrounded by an organic wall. In all cells, the organic cell wall has up to 10 silica bands (13 nm wide) embedded in its surface in the girdle region, lacks girdle bands, and has an outer corrugated cell wall layer, except in the girdle region. Cell division, organic wall formation and silica deposition are described in detail. Four types of oval cells are also described. The relation to other diatoms is discussed.

Breaking strengths of pollen grain walls

50% breaking point pressures of pollen grain walls of eleven species were determined. The breaking point pressures of most pollen grain walls are equivalent to those reported in the literature for other types of living cell walls such as bacterial spore coats, algal cell walls, mold sporophyte cells, and dicot suspension culture cells. The strongest pollen grain walls are two or three orders of magnitude stronger, however. Pollen grain walls are proportionately very thick in comparison to other types of cell walls. It is this thickness, not the construction or physical properties of the pollen grain wall, that most probably accounts for their strength.
