二棱大麦数量性状相关遗传力和选择指数的分析

以15个二棱大麦品种(系)材料,用相关遗传力研究大麦数量性状的相关遗传,并计算分析籽粒产量和产量构成性状所组合的各种选择指数。结果表明:各性状与单株粒重的相关遗传力均低于单株粒重的遗传力,故仅利用一个性状作间接选择的效率比对单株粒重作直接选择的效率低;在构成大麦产量的三要素中,着重提高单株穗数对产量的选择效率最大; 高产育种同时考虑与产量显著相关的性状比单纯对产量选择的效果好,其中以单株穗数、每穗粒数和籽粒产量结合起来选择的效果最佳。本文并对相关遗传力在相关遗传变异分析中的应用进行了讨论。     

Heterosis in Cepaea

A test has been made of the association of heterozygosity with shell breadth in the polymorphic snail Cepaea nemoralis. The material was collected by C. B. Goodhart from a series of paired sites at which individuals reached different adult breadths. Dominant phenotypes, in which a large fraction was heterozygous, had a greater breadth and lower variance than recessive phenotypes regardless of whether the measurement was of shell ground colour, banding or the double recessive vs. the rest. Most of the difference was contributed by samples from the habitat where animals reached the largest size. The result is consistent with existence of heterotic sections of chromosome that include the colour and banding loci, and may help to explain the persistence of the polymorphism.  © 2007 The Linnean Society of London, Biological Journal of the Linnean Society , 2007, 90 , 49–53.     

Heterosis

Heterosis refers to the phenomenon that progeny of diverse varieties of a species or crosses between species exhibit greater biomass, speed of development, and fertility than both parents. Various models have been posited to explain heterosis, including dominance, overdominance, and pseudo-overdominance. In this Perspective, we consider that it might be useful to the field to abandon these terms that by their nature constrain data interpretation and instead attempt a progression to a quantitative genetic framework involving interactions in hierarchical networks. While we do not provide a comprehensive model to explain the phenomenology of heterosis, we provide the details of what needs to be explained and a direction of pursuit that we feel should be fruitful.     

染色体倍数与杂种优势之关系初探

杂种优势是植物界的一个普遍现象,也是提高栽培作物产量的一个十分重要的途径.目前,除少数栽培作物外,大部分作物都已成功地利用了杂种优势.     

杂种优势的研究进展

杂种优势是自然界中普遍存在的一种现象,在水稻、玉米和家蚕中已广泛应用,成为提高社会经济效益必不可少的工具。然而,目前对杂种优势理论的探索却远远落后于实践的应用。为此,通过杂种优势利用简史、杂种优势遗传机理研究进展及发展趋势的概述,提出将转录组学和蛋白质组学共同用于杂种优势的研究,以期为杂种优势利用和遗传机理的研究提供借鉴和理论参考。     

染色体倍数与杂种优势之关系初探

杂种优势是植物界的一个普遍现象,也是提高栽培作物产量的一个十分重要的途径。目前,除少数栽培作物外,大部分作物都已成功地利用了杂种优势。杂种优势的利用基本上集中在二倍体,在生产上大面积利用的以收获种子为目的的多倍体并不多,如小麦（异源六倍体）、大豆（异源四倍体）、花生（异源四倍体）等。其原因除制种较困难外,关键是杂种优势多不及二倍体,但到目前为止,尚未有一个完整的理论对此进行系统解释,本文将就这一问题进行讨论,以供同行参考。１　内源优势与外源优势笔者认为,多倍体作物杂种优势不强与其染色体组成有关。…     

Role of Melanin in Release of Extracellular Enzymes and Selection of Aggressive Isolates of Bipolaris sorokiniana in Barley

Eighteen barley isolates of Bipolaris sorokiniana belonging to wild and clonal type of black, mixed and white subpopulations were quantitatively assayed for their melanin content and aggressiveness with respect to production of some of the extracellular enzymes such as cellulase, pectinase, amylase and protease. Cellulase and pectinase constituted major portion of the enzymes recovered from the black, mixed and white isolates. Enzyme production and aggressiveness were relatively higher in melanin devoid or low melanin isolates. The melanin deficient isolates were also differentiated from black and mixed isolates on the basis of variation in internal transcribed spacer region of the ribosomal DNA. Higher enzyme productions positively correlated with area under disease progress curve (AUDPC) and lesion development. Melanin content was negatively correlated with extracellular enzymes and aggressiveness of the isolates. Based on melanin content, lesion size, AUDPC and extracellular enzymes, the isolates were grouped in two major clusters (I and II) with further division of cluster II into two sub-clusters (II-A and II-B). The results appears to indicate a possible role of melanin in release of extracellular enzymes and hence in evolution and selection of aggressive isolates of B. sorokiniana in barley.     

Selection for Aggressiveness in Erysiphe graminis f. sp. Hordei Towards Partial Resistance in Barley

Isolates of powdery mildew were subjected to recurrent selection on partially resistant barley cultivars for 76 inoculation cycles over three years. Previous intermediate tests on up to 32 cycles for adaptation to overcome the host resistance revealed a trend towards adaptation to the cv. 7204 recurrent host in infection frequency data but not towards cv. Golden Promise or 9319, Subsequent cycles demonstrated adaptation to these latter hosts also.
