基于RAPD数据探讨中华蓑藓(Macromitrium cavaleriei Card.& Thér.)形态变异的遗传基础

中华蓑藓(Macromitrium cavaleriei Card.&;Thér.)的形态变异强烈,为了解形态变异是否具有遗传学背景,本研究以采自浙南凤阳山、浙中金华北山、浙西北的天目山和江西庐山4个种群的中华蓑藓为材料,运用随机扩增多态性DNA(RAPD)探讨了中华蓑藓的遗传多样性。从100条随机引物中筛选出了15条有效引物,利用它们共获得183个条带,其中多态性条带占79.69%,中华蓑藓各种群间的Dice遗传距离为0.0732~0.1514。POPGENE32软件分析得到种的Nei基因多样性指数(H)为0.3378,Shannon指数(I)为0.5126,遗传分化系数(G_st)为0.1670;基因流(N_m)为2.4947;种群内遗传多样性指数为0.4055,占种群总的遗传多样性的79.11%,反映出研究区域内的中华蓑藓遗传变异大多数存在于种群内,中华蓑藓形态变异并没有多少遗传背景,很可能是生态环境因素引起的可塑性变异。聚类分析表明,中华蓑藓种群遗传距离与地理距离之间无直接相关关系,遗传多样性水平与物种特性和所处不同群落有关。虽然4个种群内的形态变异丰富,但是属于同一物种的范围。

基于4个叶绿体基因识别蓑藓属(Macromitrium)植物的可行性研究

我国的蓑藓属植物形态变异式样复杂,分类问题多.DNA条形码技术是一种新的物种鉴定技术.本研究以采自浙江、福建、云南、广西、四川等省的蓑藓属(Macromitrium)7个物种及其外类群直叶藓Macrocoma tenue subsp. sullivantii和火藓Schlotheimia grevilleana的38份标本为对象,获得了它们的叶绿体基因trnL、trnG、psbT和rps4序列,基于这些基因的不同组合构建了15棵贝叶斯系统发育树,获得了相应的蓑藓属植物的物种识别率、种内和种间的遗传距离.发现基于trnL-rps4、trnL-trnG-rps4、trnL-psbT-rps4、trnG-psbT-rps4和trnL-trnG-rps4-psbT等5个组合能够较好地识别本研究中蓑藓属植物,均得到了100%的物种识别率.考虑到扩增和测序的成功率和得到的7种蓑藓属植物的系统发育关系,建议将trnL-trnG-psbT组合用于蓑藓属植物的系统发育分析和物种识别的DNA条形码.     

云南金钱槭形态变异与遗传变异的相关性研究

对我国特有珍稀濒危保护植物云南金钱槭的形态变异水平、遗传变异模式以及两者之间的相关性进行了研究。形态学性状分析结果表明 :各居群形态性状变异系数的平均值从大到小排列为 :文山居群 (WSh)、屏边居群 (PB)、黑龙潭居群 (HL T)、蒙自居群 (MZ) ;文山居群与屏边、黑龙潭、蒙自居群间已产生显著或极显著水平的形态差异 ,而后三者间的差异未达显著水平。RAPD分析检测到 10 3个位点 ,其中多态位点 84个 ,云南金钱槭物种水平的多态位点比率为 81.5 5 % ,与其它珍稀濒危植物相比该种的遗传多样性水平不低。 AMOVA和 N ei基因多样性指数分析显示 ,尽管大部分遗传变异仍存在于居群内 (分别为5 7.86 %、5 7.33% ) ,但居群间的遗传变异已达较高水平 (分别为 4 2 .14 %、4 2 .6 7% )。相关分析结果显示 ,云南金钱槭的形态变异与海拔、土壤有机质等生态因子有着显著或极显著水平的相关性 ,但与遗传变异的相关性未达显著水平 ,说明云南金钱槭的形态变异虽然具有一定的遗传基础 ,但可塑性及环境压力对形态变异的产生作用更大一些。基于形态性状和 RAPD数据的聚类分析则进一步说明 ,云南金钱槭的形态变异受到环境因子的强烈影响而与遗传背景的关系不显著     

中国境内稗(Echinochloa crus-galli)形态变异及其遗传和地理背景分析

采集了浙江、福建、江苏、湖南、湖北、四川、重庆、黑龙江、河南9个省的稗（Echinochloa crus-galli（L.）P.Beauv.）及其变种的33份种子,分别播种在相同的环境下,获得33个种群,测定了种群的16个形态性状,筛选出重复性好的9条ISSR引物,从33个种群中扩增出了109个位点。基于这些形态性状和ISSR位点信息,对33个种群先进行主成分分析,在此基础上再进行模糊均值聚类分析,探讨了它们的形态和遗传变化特点,及其与形态-遗传-地理背景三者之间的关系。主要结论如下：（1）33个种群可以鉴别出形态性状相对一致的4组,能够识别出西来稗（E.crus-galli var.zelayensis（Kunth）Farw.）、无芒稗（E.crus-galli var.mitis（Pursh）Peterm.）、细叶旱稗（E.crus-galli var.praticola Ohwi）;（2）基于109个位点信息对33个种群进行聚类分析得到了6组,部分组与形态聚类分组有一定的对应性;（3）33个稗草种群的遗传分化受地理背景因素的影响（r=0.684,n=33,P<0.001）;形态变异也有较明显的遗传背景因素（r=0.425,n=33,P<0.02）。在相对一致的稻田生境中,可能存在着形态上的趋同适应,使遗传上分化的组间在形态上又往往有交叉过渡,致使稗原变种（E.crus-galli var.crus-galli）、西来稗、无芒稗、短芒稗（E.crus-galli var.breviseta（Döll）Podp.）在形态上难以区别;（4）基于遗传和形态数据分析,发现细叶旱稗无论在形态上,还是遗传上,均形成了明显的一组,推测与该种长期适应于干旱生境有关,建议将细叶旱稗提升为种的水平,并将其命名为Echinochloa praticola（Ohwi）Guo S L,Lu Y L,Yin L P&Zou M Y。

华南地区黒眶蟾蜍的遗传变异和地理分化

黒眶蟾蜍Bufo melanostictus(Anura,Bufonidae)是亚洲常见的蟾蜍,广泛分布于中国华南地区。由于华南地区分布着众多的大陆架岛屿及其地貌的复杂性与多样性,因而不同地区的黑眶蟾蜍种群可能存在地理上的遗传变异。本文首次采用DNA序列分析方法,检测了采自我国华南6个省市地区(福建、广东、广西、海南、香港、台湾),包括4个主要大陆架岛屿(海南岛、大屿山、南澳岛、台湾岛)的12个黑眶蟾蜍种群共84个个体,获得mtDNA控制区序列长956bp的片段,共有75个变异位点(26.3%为单个多态位点,73.7%为简约信息位点),12个插入/缺失。所获得的44个单倍型中有5个为种群间共享的单倍型。华南地区黒眶蟾蜍较高的的遗传多样性(单倍型多样性h=0.977)不但表现为海岛种群内普遍具有较高的遗传变异,而且遗传分化指数(FST)、基因流(Nm)、Amova和Samova等分析均表明种群之间已经发生了明显的遗传分化。从Amova分析和分子系统发育分析结果来看,华南地区分布于大陆与分布于海岛的种群之间并未发生明显的遗传分化,说明由陆缘浅海造成的阻隔作用(isolation by barrier)并不能很好地解释华南地区黑眶蟾蜍种群之间遗传分化的原因。遗传距离与地理距离的低度相关(Mantel测试R=0.192,P<0.001)说明华南地区黑眶蟾蜍的种群分化並不完全符合距离决定分化(isolation by distance)的假说。Samova的结果表明华南沿海大陆东部的3个种群(广东汕头、福建莆田和东山)与其它地区9个种群之间的变异最大(FCT=0.35097),因此,推测黑眶蟾蜍这2个地理区域组之间应该存在着其它地理隔离屏障,对两地黑眶蟾蜍的迁移有一定的阻隔作用,产生此隔离效应的天然地理屏障可能为莲花山脉。黑眶蟾蜍种群在历史上曾发生多次局部扩张,时间大约在距今0.025MYA左右,这与最后一次冰期结束的时间相吻合,而位于我国华南大陆周边的4个主要大陆架岛屿(海南岛、大屿山、南澳岛、台湾岛)可能是华南地区黒眶蟾蜍在第四纪冰期的"避难所"。南澳岛种群所存在的特殊单倍型验证了这一岛屿避难所的存在。本研究揭示的地理种群之间的遗传变异和分化,对进一步了解华南地区乃至亚洲的黒眶蟾蜍的生物地理关系有重要意义。     

濒危植物独花兰的形态变异及其适应意义

采用ANOVA和UPGMA等方法对濒危植物独花兰(Changnieniaamoena)分布于庐山、新宁和神农架3个地点的12个自然居群的形态变异进行了研究,探讨其形态多样性水平和地理变异式样及其可能的适应机制。结果表明,庐山居群13个性状的平均观测值均高于新宁和神农架居群。在物种水平上各个性状存在较丰富的变异,变异系数(CV值)为0.02–0.30。尽管同一性状在不同居群中的变异程度较大,但总体而言,花部器官的变异性比营养器官低。单因素方差分析显示3个地区间多个形态性状存在极显著差异(P<0.01);UPGMA聚类分析也表明这3个地区分别形成明显不同的分支。值得注意的是,神农架地区龙门河和关门山两个地点间存在明显的形态分化,而这种形态分化是以传粉者为媒介自然选择的结果。相关性分析显示,营养器官之间、花部器官之间,以及营养器官与花部器官之间均存在较高的相关性。上述结果对进一步了解独花兰的适应机制以及制定科学的保护策略提供了有益的资料。     

地理因素对箭竹复合体遗传多样性与遗传分化的影响

地理因素对植物天然居群的物种分布和种内分化具有重要影响。该研究通过对箭竹复合体内39个居群的14对SSR数据进行深入分析,旨在揭示重要地理因素(如海拔、纬度、地理距离)对该复合体内遗传多样性和遗传分化式样的影响。结果表明:(1)糙花箭竹亚支系遗传多样性最高(H_e=0.50),而团竹亚支系的遗传多样性最低(H_e=0.33)。(2)遗传多样性与纬度、海拔在A、B两个支系水平呈显著正相关关系,但在亚支系水平,遗传多样性的变化趋势呈现出更为复杂的局面,部分支系表现为负相关关系,推测纬度和海拔对箭竹复合体内遗传多样性水平具有一定影响,但也需重视其他进化因素的作用。(3)Mantel检验显示,仅在团竹亚支系中检测出较弱的正相关关系,表明地理距离不是影响箭竹复合体内遗传分化的主导因素,后续需结合基因流检测推断杂交事件对其遗传分化的影响。

安氏白腹鼠的形态分化与分布范围修订

安氏白腹鼠（Niviventer andersoni） (Thomas, 1911) 是中国特有种,也是白腹鼠属体型最大的种类。这一物种的基础研究较为薄弱,形态分化也缺乏系统分析。化石记录显示这一物种在第四纪晚期曾广泛分布于中国川黔地区中低海拔环境,然而国内外主要的数据库和专著均显示安氏白腹鼠现生种群分布区较为狭窄,主要在中国西南地区。本文通过检视国内外主要动物博物馆馆藏标本,结合课题组近十年来的野外采集,对安氏白腹鼠不同地理种群的形态分化进行研究,综合利用采集记录和博物馆馆藏数据对这一物种的分布范围进行修订。基于线粒体细胞色素b（Cyt b）的系统发育分析显示这一物种具有3个遗传支系。安氏白腹鼠指名亚种包含于四川盆地周边山脉与华中、华南支系,安氏白腹鼠哀牢山亚种分布于云南西南及藏东南支系。基于头骨测量数据的分析显示安氏白腹鼠不同地理种群已产生显著的分化。安氏白腹鼠现生种群从中国西藏东南地区到秦岭,甚至武陵山地区中高海拔森林环境均有分布,但与第四纪晚期这一物种的化石分布记录相比,现生种群分布海拔已明显上升。     

Genetic diversity and taxonomic studies of date plum (Diospyros lotus L.) using morphological traits and SCoT markers

Date plum persimmon (Diospyros lotus L.) is an important fruit crop in China due to its better compatibility as a major root stock for Diospyros kaki Thunb. The objective of this study was to reveal the diversity and taxonomic status based on morphological and molecular markers for 26 date plum persimmon accessions from different ecogeographical areas. Significant variability was observed in the 26 date plum persimmon accessions using the analysis of 5 quantitative and 16 qualitative morphological characters of branches, fruits and seeds. Molecular diversity was analyzed using start codon targeted (SCoT) markers. A total of 118 bands were produced with 11 SCoT primers; genetic similarity was ranged from 0.42 to 0.83, which indicating higher genetic variation among accessions. Based on the cluster results of morphological and molecular data, the results showed that date plum persimmon may be divided into five taxonomic types which including male date plum persimmon, rounded seedless date plum persimmon, rounded seedy date plum persimmon, obround seedless date plum persimmon, and oblate seedy date plum persimmon.     

箭叶淫羊藿居群形态及遗传多样性比较研究

箭叶淫羊藿（Epimedium sagittatum）是淫羊藿属中分布最广、形态变异最大、分类学最难处理的一个物种,不同箭叶淫羊藿居群其形态、活性成分等差异较大,质量极其不稳定。本实验选择湖北罗田等12个不同的箭叶淫羊藿地理居群,在武汉植物园进行同园栽培,分析其主要形态数量性状及遗传多样性。结果发现箭叶淫羊藿不同居群在形态上表现出各自明显的差异。基于AFLP数据进行的遗传多样性分析显示,各居群聚类关系与地理分布密切相关,柳州居群（LZ）、西南居群（CL、HH、ZY）、华东华中居群（YT、WN、NF、HS、QZ、SG、LY、LT）依次分出。而形态分层聚类分析显示各居群形态变异复杂,只有部分与遗传多样性有一定的相关性。本研究结果对箭叶淫羊藿分类研究及资源筛选具有重要指导作用。     

Genetic diversity and population differentiation of the Chinese soft-shelled turtle (Pelodiscus sinensis) in three geographical populations

The Chinese soft-shelled turtle (Pelodiscus sinensis) is one of the most important economical chelonians in the world. To understand the genetic variations of the Chinese soft-shelled turtle in China, 62 individuals were sampled from three localities and 18 polymorphic microsatellite loci tested were used to detect genetic diversity and population structure. Results showed that the genetic diversity of the wild P. sinensis was high. Except for the Wuhu populations, the majority of microsatellite loci are not deviation from Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium in the other two populations. AMOVA analysis indicated that genetic variations occurred mainly within populations (97.4%) rather than among populations (2.6%). The gene flow estimates (Nm) among three geographic populations demonstrated that strong gene flow existed (Nm > 1, mean 6). The present study supported that different habitats, breed turtles escaped, multiple paternity and long evolutionary history may be responsible for the current genetic diversity and differentiation in the wild Chinese soft-shelled turtle.     

The meaning of genetic variation within and between subpopulations

Summary Argumentation is presented which indicates that the additive decomposition of the total genetic variation of a population into variation within and between (among) its subpopulations suffers from conceptual inconsistency. While the measurement of variation between subpopulations can be shown to be identical to the measurement of subpopulation differentiation, the notion of variation within subpopulations, when viewed as a single measurement, cannot be derived as an independent and cogent concept. Rather, it appears to be merely technically defined as the arithmetic difference between the total variation and the variation between subpopulations, and this difference happens to be non-negative for concave measures of variation such as the (statistical) variance or certain measures of genetic diversity. In order to overcome the conceptual inconsistency, variation between subpopulations could be regarded as subpopulation differentiation and the notion of variation within subpopulations could be replaced by measurements of the degree to which the variation in the total population is represented within the subpopulations. A complementary situation with respect to total variation is thus realized once more, and appropriate measures can be directly derived from existing ones.     

Genetic variation and geographical divergence in Elymus nutans Griseb. (Poaceae: Triticeae) from West China

Elymus nutans Griseb. as an important forage grass and gene pools for improving cereal crops, widely distributes in west China. However, little is known about its genetic and geographical patterns. Inter-simple sequence repeat (ISSR) markers were applied to assess genetic diversity and geographical divergence among 63 E. nutans accessions from west China. The cluster analysis separated the accessions into several groups with geographical origins. The molecular variance analysis (AMOVA) showed that the proportion of variance explained by within- and among-geographical group diversity was 43.2% and 56.8%, respectively. Based on pairwise genetic distances (Φ_ST) between geographical groups, the relationships were congruent with the cluster of accessions. The distinct geographical divergence of E. nutans was revealed between Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and Xinjiang. The ecogeographical conditions such as climate and mountain ranges and elevation behaved as the crucial factors for genetic divergence. Furthermore, the study also indicated that Qinghai-Tibet Plateau might be the diversity differentiation center of E. nutans. The result will facilitate the breeding program and germplasm collection and conservation.     

凤丹栽培群体的表型变异研究

Biscogniauxia mediterranea associated with cork oak (Quercus suber) in Tunisia: Relationships between phenotypic variation,genetic diversity and ecological factors

Biscogniauxia mediterranea is a xylariaceous ascomycete responsible for ‘charcoal disease’, the most frequent disease of cork oak in the Mediterranean basin. However, little is known regarding this fungus in North Africa. This is the first report on the morphological and genetic diversity of B. mediterranea populations in Tunisia.A total of forty-eight isolates from cork oak trees, corresponding to three different sites and three tree parts, were identified as B. mediterranea based on morphological and molecular diagnosis. Variability among the isolates was evaluated using morphological traits and microsatellite-primed PCR (MSP-PCR). B. mediterranea isolates showed high variability in culture, specifically in colony color. A high level of genetic diversity within populations and within tree parts was detected (H = 0.417, I = 0.605, and H = 0.415, I = 0.601 respectively). Significant genetic differentiation among populations (G_ST = 0.116 and Φ_ST = 0.137; p < 0.001) was determined. However, a low genetic differentiation among tree parts (G_ST = 0.066 and Φ_ST = 0.018; p = 0.07) was observed. Principal coordinate analysis showed that genetic divergence was partially related to the geographical origin. Cluster analysis based on morphological traits showed that the grouping of the isolates occurs independently of the geographic location and the tree part. The effective number of alleles (Ne), the Nei's gene diversity index (H), the Shannon's information index (I), the colony color and the presence of exudates were significantly correlated with the altitude and the rainfall. The number of alleles (Na), the percentage of polymorphic loci (PPL), the texture and the density of the mycelium were significantly correlated with the temperature. These results provide a deeper understanding of population genetics of B. mediterranea and its adaptation to environmental conditions which could help to develop control strategies against charcoal canker disease.
