A study of the collection of sour cherry, sweet cherry, common plum, diploid and tetraploid types of plums, and apricots grown in Belarus carried out using 20 SSR markers showed that they are characterized by high genetic diversity. Among 106 genotypes, 524 polymorphic alleles were identified. The average number of alleles was 15.4 in common plum samples, 11.3 in diploid and tetraploid plum, 9.3 in sour cherry, 6.0 in apricot, and 4.9 in sweet cherry. The greatest genetic diversity is characteristic of common plum cultivars (PD = 0.811). The genetic diversity decreases as follows: diploid plum (PD = 0.741), sour cherry (PD = 0.721), apricot (PD = 0.673), and sweet cherry (PD = 0.655). Cluster analysis shows that the degree of intraspecific divergence in sour cherry and sweet cherry cultivars is less than that of common plum, diploid plum, and apricot plum. Although apricots and plums belong to the subgenus Prunophora, according to the results of SSR analysis, apricot cultivars form a cluster that is more distant from both Cerasus and Prunophora. A set of seven SSR markers (EMPA001, EMPA005, EMPA018, EMPA026 and BPPCT025, BPPCT026, BPPCT039) was selected for DNA identification of cultivars of sour cherry, sweet cherry, common plum, diploid plum, and apricot, as well as species and interspecies hybrids. 相似文献

Nitrate reductase utilizing NADH or reduced flavin mononucleotide (FMNH2) as electron donor was extracted from the leaves, stems and petioles, and roots of apple seedlings. Successful extraction was made possible by the use of insoluble polyvinylpyrrolidone (Polyclar AT) which forms insoluble complexes with polyphenols and tannins. The level of nitrate reductase per gram fresh weight was highest in the leaf tissue although the nitrate content of the roots was much higher than that of the leaves. Nitrite reductase activity was detected only in leaf extracts and was 4 times higher than nitrate reductase activity. Nitrate was found in all parts of young apple trees and trace amounts were also detected in mature leaves from mature trees. Nitrate reductase was induced in young leaves of apple seedlings and in mature leaves from 3 fruit-bearing varieties. An inhibitor of polyphenoloxidase, 2-mercaptobenzothiazole was used in both the inducing medium and the extracting medium in concentrations from 10−3 to 10−5m with no effect upon nitrate reductase activity. 相似文献

We report the sequences of 17 primer pairs of microsatellite loci, which we have cloned and sequenced from two genomic libraries
of peach [Prunus persica (L) Batsch] ‘Redhaven’, enriched for AC/GT and AG/CT repeats respectively. For ten of these microsatellite loci we were able
to demonstrate Mendelian inheritance in a segregating back-cross population; the remainder did not segregate. The polymorphism
of the microsatellites was evaluated in a panel of ten peach genotypes, including true-to-type peaches, nectarines and one
canning-peach. Fifteen microsatellites (88%) were polymorphic showing 2–4 alleles each. The mean heterozygosity, averaged
over all loci, was 0.32 and significantly higher than that reported in the literature for isozymes and molecular markers,
such as RFLPs and RAPDs. We have also assayed the cross-species transportability and found that ten microsatellite (59%) gave
apparently correct amplification in all Prunus species surveyed, namely P. domestica (European plum), P. salicina (Japanese plum), P. armeniaca (apricot), P. dulcis (almond), P. persica var. vulgaris (peach), P. persica var. laevis (nectarine), P. avium (sweet cherry) and P. cerasus (sour cherry), with three of them also being amplified in Malus (apple). The remaining microsatellites gave less-extensive amplification. Because of their appreciable polymorphism and wide
cross-species transportability, most of these new markers can be integrated into the linkage maps which are currently being
constructed in peach, as well as in other stone fruit crops, such as almond, apricot, cherry and plum.

We report 99 simple sequence repeats (SSRs) newly isolated from an apricot (Prunus armeniaca L.) genomic library enriched for AG/CT repeats. Twenty SSRs were screened for their polymorphism in 16 apricot cultivars. The number of alleles ranged from two to nine, whereas the expected heterozygosity (HE) ranged from 0.26 to 0.82. The same SSRs showed also an appreciable transportability across different Prunus species, such as peach, nectarine, almond, European plum, Japanese plum, sweet cherry and sour cherry, with 20% of primers giving successful amplifications in all Prunus species assayed. None gave amplification in apple. 相似文献

We have isolated 44 SSRs from an AC‐enriched genomic library from almond (Prunus amygdalus Batsch.). Twenty SSRs were screened for their polymorphism in 16 cultivars and for their transportability in seven different Prunus species (peach, nectarine, apricot, European plum, Japanese plum, sweet cherry, sour cherry) and in apple. The expected heterozygosity ranged from 0.62 to 0.89. About 30% of primers gave successful amplification in seven different Prunus species; in two cases amplifications were obtained also in apple. 相似文献

A survey of bacterial diseases due to Pseudomonas on rosaceous fruit trees was conducted. In forty two orchards located in the Constantine region ( East Algeria). Pseudomonas isolates were identified on the bases of their cultural and biochemical characteristics . A total of fifty nine phytopathogenic bacteria were isolated from diseased pome and stone fruit trees. Thirty one strains comparable to Pseudomonas syringae pv. syringae were isolated from cherry (Prunus avium L.), plum (P. domestica L.), apricot (P. armeniaca L.), almond (P. dulcis L.) and pear trees (Pirus communis L.); sixteen strains comparable to Pseudomonas syringae pv. morsprunorum were obtained from samples of cherry and plum. Twelve strains of Pseudomonas viridiflava were isolated from cherry, apricot and peach (Prunus persica L.). 相似文献

cDNA clones were selected from a corn (Zea mays L.) leaf lambda gt11 expression library using polyclonal antibodies for corn leaf NADH:nitrate reductase. One clone, Zmnrl, had a 2.1 kilobase insert, which hybridized to a 3.2 kilobase mRNA. The deduced amino acid sequence of Zmnrl was nearly identical to peptide sequences of corn leaf NADH:nitrate reductase. Another clone, Zm6, had an insert of 1.4 kilobase, which hybridized to a 1.4 kilobase mRNA, and its sequence coded for chloroplastic NAD(P)+:glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase based on comparisons to sequences of this enzyme from tobacco and corn. When nitrate was supplied to N-starved, etiolated corn plants, nitrate reductase, and glyceraldehyde-3-phosphate dehydrogenase mRNA levels in leaves increased in parallel. When green leaves were treated with nitrate, only nitrate reductase mRNA levels were increased. Nitrate is a specific inducer of nitrate reductase in green leaves, but appears to have a more general effect in etiolated leaves. In the dark, nitrate induced nitrate reductase expression in both etiolated and green leaves, indicating light and functional chloroplast were not required for enzyme expression. 相似文献

Host preference of the plum curculio 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
We assessed host preference of adult plum curculio, Conotrachelus nenuphar (Herbst) (Coleoptera: Curculionidae), based on the total number of mark‐released and wild adults recovered and the total distance moved by mark‐released adults in an orchard whose layout was designed to specifically allow foraging plum curculios to choose among host tree species. Host trees included apple, Malus domestica Borkh.; pear, Pyrus communis (L.); peach, Prunus persica (L.) Batsch; apricot, Prunus armeniaca L.; tart cherry, Prunus cerasus L.; sweet cherry, Prunus avium (L.); European plum, Prunus domestica L.; and Japanese plum, Prunus salicina Lindl. (all Rosaceae). We released 2900 marked adults and recovered 17.7%. We used screen traps to provide a measure of the number of adults that arrived at and climbed up particular host trees and found that significantly greater numbers of marked adults and the greatest number of wild adults were recovered from screen traps attached to Japanese plum. We sampled host tree canopies by tapping limbs to provide a measure of the number of adults within a tree canopy at a particular moment. Again, significantly greater numbers of marked and wild adults were recovered from plum species, with no difference between Japanese and European plum cultivars for marked individuals, but with significantly greater numbers of wild individuals recovered from Japanese plum. The preference index (PI) for Japanese plum based on total distances moved by all marked adults recovered on Japanese plum divided by the total distance moved by marked adults recovered on other host trees indicated that Japanese plum was the most highly preferred host, followed by European plum, peach, sweet cherry, tart cherry, apricot, apple, and pear, respectively. 相似文献

A survey was made to determine the incidence of phytoplasmas in 39 sweet and sour cherry, peach, nectarine, apricot and plum commercial and experimental orchards in seven growing regions of Poland. Nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) using the phytoplasma‐universal primer pairs P1/P7 followed by R16F2n/R16R2 showed the presence of phytoplasmas in 29 of 435 tested stone fruit trees. The random fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) patterns obtained after digestion of the nested PCR products separately with RsaI, AluI and SspI endonucleases indicated that selected Prunus spp. trees were infected by phytoplasmas belonging to three different subgroups of the apple proliferation group (16SrX‐A, ‐B, ‐C). Nucleotide sequence analysis of 16S rDNA fragment amplified with primers R16F2n/R16R2 confirmed the PCR/Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) results and revealed that phytoplasma infecting sweet cherry cv. Regina (Reg), sour cherry cv. Sokowka (Sok), apricots cv. Early Orange (EO) and AI/5, Japanese plum cv. Ozark Premier (OzPr) and peach cv. Redhaven (RedH) was closely related to isolate European stone fruit yellows‐G1 of the ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma prunorum’ (16SrX‐B). Sequence and phylogenetic analyses resulted in the highest similarity of the 16S rDNA fragment of phytoplasma from nectarine cv. Super Queen (SQ) with the parallel sequence of the strain AP15 of the ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma mali’ (16SrX‐A). The phytoplasma infecting sweet cherry cv. Kordia (Kord) was most similar to the PD1 strain of the ‘Candidatus Phytoplasma pyri’ (16SrX‐C). This is the first report of the occurrence of ‘Ca. P. prunorum’, ‘Ca. P. mali’ and ‘Ca. P. pyri’ in naturally infected stone fruit trees in Poland. 相似文献

Shot hole disease is one of the most important diseases of stone fruit trees in Iran. The disease is wide spread among orchards of Prunus spp. During spring and summer of 2007, 80 monoconidial isolates of the pathogen were recovered from infected leaves, fruits and twigs of different Prunus spp. in West Azerbaijan, Tehran, Ghazvin and Razavi Khorasan provinces of Iran and were studied taxonomically. Based on morphological and physiological characteristics and growth optimal temperature, all isolates were identified as Wilsonomyces carpophilus. Seedlings of stone fruits (apricot, almond, peach, nectarine, plum, sweet cherry and sour cherry) were used for pathogenicity tests. All seedlings were susceptible to the fungal isolates and showed disease symptoms on twigs, leaves, buds and petioles. Genetic diversity of 28 selected fungal isolates was investigated based on DNA fingerprinting by random amplified polymorphic DNA-polymerase chain reaction (RAPD-PCR), using four random primers. Based on cluster analysis of the PCR results from the four primers, 10 fingerprinting groups (clonal lineages) and 27 haplotypes were identified. Clonal lineages “C”, “D” and “E”, each with six haplotypes formed the biggest clonal lineages, but other clonal lineages (“B”, “F”, “G”, “H”, “I” and “J”) included only one isolate. No correlation was detected among clonal lineages with the location of selected isolates and their host species. A correlation was found between the substrate (fruit, twig or leaf) and clonal lineages, particularly in “C” clonal lineage. The results showed that the fungus population had high genetic diversity which is distributed among the different areas of Iran. 相似文献

不同寄主植物对山楂叶螨生长发育和繁殖的影响 总被引:12,自引:3,他引:9
室内采用叶碟饲养的方法研究了苹果、桃、李、樱桃和杏等不同果树对山楂叶螨Tetrancychusvienensis生长发育和繁殖的影响。结果表明,在李树上山楂叶螨的发育历期短、生殖力强、存活率高,rm值大,而在樱桃和杏树上该螨的发育历期长、生殖力弱、存活率低、rm值小。寄主转换试验结果表明,当山楂叶螨由苹果转移至樱桃和杏树时,其生长发育的历期显著延长,rm值大幅度降低;而由苹果转移至桃树和李树时,其生长发育的历期虽也有所延长,但差异不显著,rm值则明显降低。表明山楂叶螨对新寄主的适应因不同寄主而异,在桃和李上经历1代后即可适应,而在杏和樱桃上经历2代后才能适应新的寄主。 相似文献

The Occurrence of Nitrate Reduction in the Leaves of Woody Plants 总被引:13,自引:1,他引:12
Nitrate reductase activities greater than 02 µmol h1g1 f. wt, measured by an in vivo assay, occurred in 41per cent of a large sample (555 species) of woody plants. Ifseveral taxonomic groups (Gymnosperms, Ericaceae and Proteaceae)with consistently low activities were discounted activitiesgreater than 02 µmol h1 g1 f. wt occurredin 73 per cent of the species. This compares with 93 per centin herbaceous species, suggesting that leaf nitrate reductionis of common occurrence in woody plants. In a small sample ofspecies leaf nitrate reductase activity correlated with nitrateconcentration in the xylem sap. Low activities occurred consistentlyin the Gymnosperms, Ericaceae and Proteaceae. Feeding cut shootsof representatives of these groups with nitrate caused inductionof leaf nitrate reductase activity in the Gymnosperms and Proteaceae,but only limited induction in the Ericaceae. The Ericaceae,with the exception of two species, had low activities and lownitrate reductase inducibility. Root assimilation may predominatein the Gymnosperms and Proteaceae. It is suggested that nitratereduction generally occurs in the leaves of trees from a varietyof plant communities and that this may be related to the lowerenergy cost of leaf, as opposed to root, nitrate assimilation.

The nitrate reductase activity of 5-day-old whole corn roots was isolated using phosphate buffer. The relatively stable nitrate reductase extract can be separated into three fractions using affinity chromatography on blue-Sepharose. The first fraction, eluted with NADPH, reduces nearly equal amounts of nitrate with either NADPH or NADH. A subsequent elution with NADH yields a nitrate reductase which is more active with NADH as electron donor. Further elution with salt gives a nitrate reductase fraction which is active with both NADH and NADPH, but is more active with NADH. All three nitrate reductase fractions have pH optima of 7.5 and Stokes radii of about 6.0 nanometers. The NADPH-eluted enzyme has a nitrate Km of 0.3 millimolar in the presence of NADPH, whereas the NADH-eluted enzyme has a nitrate Km of 0.07 millimolar in the presence of NADH. The NADPH-eluted fraction appears to be similar to the NAD(P)H:nitrate reductase isolated from corn scutellum and the NADH-eluted fraction is similar to the NADH:nitrate reductases isolated from corn leaf and scutellum. The salt-eluted fraction appears to be a mixture of NAD(P)H: and NADH:nitrate reductases. 相似文献

Characteristics and transferability of new apple EST-derived SSRs to other Rosaceae species 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Ksenija Gasic Yuepeng Han Sunee Kertbundit Vladimir Shulaev Amy F. Iezzoni Ed W. Stover Richard L. Bell Michael E. Wisniewski Schuyler S. Korban 《Molecular breeding : new strategies in plant improvement》2009,23(3):397-411
Genic microsatellites or simple sequence repeat markers derived from expressed sequence tags (ESTs), referred to as EST–SSRs,
are inexpensive to develop, represent transcribed genes, and often have assigned putative function. The large apple (Malus × domestica) EST database (over 300,000 sequences) provides a valuable resource for developing well-characterized DNA molecular markers.
In this study, we have investigated the level of transferability of 68 apple EST–SSRs in 50 individual members of the Rosaceae
family, representing three genera and 14 species. These representatives included pear (Pyrus communis), apricot (Prunus armeniaca), European plum (P. domestica), Japanese plum (P. salicina), almond (P. dulcis), peach (P. persica), sour cherry (P. cerasus), sweet cherry (P. avium), strawberry (Fragaria vesca, F. moschata, F. virginiana, F. nipponica, and F. pentaphylla), and rose (Rosa hybrida). All 68 primer pairs gave an amplification product when tested on eight apple cultivars, and for most, the genomic DNA-derived
amplification product matched the expected size based on EST (in silico) data. When tested across members of the Rosaceae, 75% of these primer pairs produced amplification products. Transferability
of apple EST–SSRs across the Rosaceae ranged from 25% in apricot to 59% in the closely related pear. Besides pear, the highest
transferability of these apple EST–SSRs, at the genus level, was observed for strawberry and peach/almond, 49 and 38%, respectively.
Three markers amplified in at least one genotype within all tested species, while eight additional markers amplified in all
species, except for cherry. These 11 markers are deemed good candidates for a widely transferable Rosaceae marker set provided
their level of polymorphism is adequate. Overall, these findings suggest that transferability of apple EST–SSRs across Rosaceae
is varied, yet valuable, thereby providing additional markers for comparative mapping and for carrying out evolutionary studies. 相似文献

Cell number regulator genes in Prunus provide candidate genes for the control of fruit size in sweet and sour cherry 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
P. De Franceschi T. Stegmeir A. Cabrera E. van der Knaap U. R. Rosyara A. M. Sebolt L. Dondini E. Dirlewanger J. Quero-Garcia J. A. Campoy A. F. Iezzoni 《Molecular breeding : new strategies in plant improvement》2013,32(2):311-326
Striking increases in fruit size distinguish cultivated descendants from small-fruited wild progenitors for fleshy fruited species such as Solanum lycopersicum (tomato) and Prunus spp. (peach, cherry, plum, and apricot). The first fruit weight gene identified as a result of domestication and selection was the tomato FW2.2 gene. Members of the FW2.2 gene family in corn (Zea mays) have been named CNR (Cell Number Regulator) and two of them exert their effect on organ size by modulating cell number. Due to the critical roles of FW2.2/CNR genes in regulating cell number and organ size, this family provides an excellent source of candidates for fruit size genes in other domesticated species, such as those found in the Prunus genus. A total of 23 FW2.2/CNR family members were identified in the peach genome, spanning the eight Prunus chromosomes. Two of these CNRs were located within confidence intervals of major quantitative trait loci (QTL) previously discovered on linkage groups 2 and 6 in sweet cherry (Prunus avium), named PavCNR12 and PavCNR20, respectively. An analysis of haplotype, sequence, segregation and association with fruit size strongly supports a role of PavCNR12 in the sweet cherry linkage group 2 fruit size QTL, and this QTL is also likely present in sour cherry (P. cerasus). The finding that the increase in fleshy fruit size in both tomato and cherry associated with domestication may be due to changes in members of a common ancestral gene family supports the notion that similar phenotypic changes exhibited by independently domesticated taxa may have a common genetic basis. 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

Summary With Rumex obtusifolius L., the influence of some environmental conditions on nitrate uptake and reduction were investigated. Nitrate concentrations of plant material were determined by HPLC, the activity of nitrate reductase by an in vivo test. As optimal incubation medium, a buffer containing 0.04 M KNO3; 0.25 M KH2PO4; 1.5% propanol (v/v); pH 8.0 was found. Vacuum infiltration caused an increase of enzyme activity of up to 40%.High nitrate concentrations were found in roots and leaf petioles. Nitrate reductase activity of these organs, however, was low. On the other hand, the highest nitrate reductase activity was observed in leaf laminae, which contained lowest nitrate concentrations.In leaves, nitrate content and nitrate reductase activity exhibited inverse diurnal fluctuations. During darkness, decreasing activities of the enzyme were followed by increasing nitrate concentrations, while during light the contrary was true. In petioles diurnal fluctuations in nitrate content were observed, too. No significant correlations with illumination, however, could be found.Our results prove that Rumex obtusifolius is characterized by an intensive nitrate turnover. Theoretically, internal nitrate content of the plant would be exhausted within a few hours, if a supply via the roots would be excluded. 相似文献

Effects of Nitrate Withdrawal and Resupply on the Assimilation of Nitrate in Leaves of Tomato 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Nitrate reduction in leaves of tomato occurred at the same ratein plants grown in 8.0 mol m3 nitrate as in plants grownin 2.0 mol m3 nitrate, but at a much slower rate in plantsgrown in 0.1 mol m3 nitrate. However, the plants grownin 8.0 mol m3 nitrate had a larger leaf system than theplants grown in 2.0 mol m3 nitrate, and so the totalcapacity to assimilate nitrate was greater in the plants grownin the higher concentration. It was shown that plants grownin 8.0 mol m3 nitrate were better buffered against nitratewithdrawal than plants grown in 2.0 mol m3 nitrate asthe rate of nitrate reduction declined more slowly when plantswere transferred to 0.1 mol m3 nitrate from the higherconcentration than from the lower concentration. Furthermore,leaf expansion continued in the plants transferred from thehigher concentration, whereas it ceased abruptly in the plantstransferred from the lower concentration. It was concluded thatboth continuing expansion and continuing nitrate reduction wereaccompanied, and possibly caused by, a release of nitrate fromstorage pools in the lower part of the stem or the roots. Duringwithdrawal of nitrate the leaves were shown to maintain potentialactivity of the enzyme nitrate reductase although there wasno nitrate to be reduced. When nitrate was resupplied it couldbe reduced very quickly and reduction in the leaves was seento increase within 5 h of resupply. By 3 d after resupply furtherenzyme activity had been induced.
