种植模式对当归根际细菌群落多样性及代谢通路的影响

连作障碍严重限制了当归产业的可持续发展。为了探索当归(Angelica sinensis)高效栽培技术,本研究在当归主产区甘肃省渭源县设置5种种植模式(A: 豌豆-当归-当归,对照;B: 豌豆-小麦-当归;C: 豌豆-蒙古黄芪-当归;D: 豌豆-马铃薯-当归;E: 豌豆-休耕-当归),于采挖期分别测定不同种植模式下,当归根际土壤理化特性和细菌基因组DNA相对丰度,分析不同种植模式对当归根际土壤理化特性、细菌群落多样性和代谢通路的影响。结果表明: 1) 5种种植模式下当归根际土壤理化特性差异较大。与对照相比,C模式根际土壤的电导率显著增加,B、D和E模式的电导率略有下降,B、C、D和E模式的土壤CO₂呼吸速率显著提高。2) 5种种植模式的当归根际土壤细菌隶属于26门368属,其中,芽单胞菌门的芽单胞菌属、变形菌门的鞘脂单胞菌属和酸杆菌门的Subgroup_6属为优势菌属。与对照相比,B、C模式变形菌门和放线菌门的相对丰度显著增加,D模式酸杆菌门的相对丰度显著降低;E模式变形菌门、酸杆菌门和放线菌门的相对丰度显著增加。3) 5种种植模式下,当归根际土壤的pH值、电导率、有机质、碱解氮、有效磷和速效钾含量与变形菌门细菌的相对丰度呈显著负相关。4) 5种种植模式下,当归根际土壤中6种代谢通路细菌的相对丰度差异显著。C模式对当归根际土壤理化特性和细菌群落有较好的调节作用,是克服当归连作障碍的主要种植模式。     

Expression patterns of hedgehog, wingless, and decapentaplegic during gut formation of Gryllus bimaculatus (cricket).

We observed expression patterns of hedgehog (hh), wingless (wg), and decapentaplegic (dpp) during gut development of Gryllus bimaculatus (the cricket), a typical hemimetabolous insect, and compared with those observed in Drosophila, a typical holometabolous insect. Gryllus hh(Gbhh) and Gbwg are expressed in both foregut and hindgut, while Gbdpp is expressed only in the hindgut: at the boundaries between the small and large intestine, and between the large intestine and rectum. Although the expression patterns of Gbhh and Gbwg are essentially comparable to those observed in Drosophila, the expression pattern of Gbdpp differs from those of the Drosophila dpp.     

Giemsa G-Banding in Allium

Using divergent Giemsa staining protocols designed for other plant species, G-banding was visualized in the chromosomes of Allium cepa L., A. fistulosum L., and their interspecific (A. fistulosum × A. cepa) hybrid. This is the first demonstration of G-banding of Allium chromosomes. Differences and similarities with other Giemsa banding patterns in Allium are discussed.     

Flavonoids of five Hieracium species of British Columbia

Five Hieracium species were examined for flavonoid constituents: H. albertinum, H. albiflorum, H. cynoglossoides, H. gracile and H. umbellatum. The major compounds present in all species were mono- and diglycosides, of apigenin and luteolin. Chrysoeriol occurred per se in several species. Quercetin-3-O-glucoside was seen only in H. umbellatum. Species specific patterns of flavonoid glycosides were evident in all five taxa; H. albertinum and H. cynoglossoides showed the greatest similarity which reflects their morphological similarity. Limited examination of artificial hybrids showed additivity of flavonoid glycoside patterns.     

Molecular identification of Anisakis simplex sensu stricto and Anisakis pegreffii (Nematoda: Anisakidae) from fish and cetacean in Japanese waters

Parasites morphologically consistent with Anisakis simplex sensu lato collected from the coast of Japan and Western North Pacific Ocean were examined by PCR-RFLP of the ITS region (ITS1, 5.8 subunit rRNA gene and ITS2) and mtDNA cox1. The RFLP patterns of rDNA generated by HinfI and HhaI showed that 100% of the larvae collected from Hokkaido and 94% of adults collected from Western North Pacific Ocean were identified as A. simplex sensu stricto. On the other hand, 97% of the larvae collected from Fukuoka prefecture were identified as A. pegreffii. A hybrid genotype was found in adults in Western North Pacific Ocean and larva in Fukuoka prefecture. These findings revealed that A. simplexs. str. is primarily distributed in the North Pacific Ocean and A. pegreffii is primarily distributed in the southern Sea of Japan. RFLP analysis of mtDNA cox1 showed different patterns between A. simplex s. str. and A. pegreffii after digestion with HinfI. This polymorphism obtained by RFLP analysis of mtDNA cox1 proved the usefulness as new genetic markers to distinguish two sibling species.     

番茄属(Lycopersicon)四个种的过氧化物酶同工酶分析

本文报告了应用连续浓度梯度聚丙烯酰胺凝胶电泳对番茄属Lyco-persicon的四个种:秘鲁番茄L.peruviaunm Mill.,多毛番茄L.hirsutum Humb.et Bonp,醋栗番茄L.pimpinellifolium(Jusl)Mill和普通番茄L.esculentum Mill.的86份材料,15个不同生育时期,不同器官以及同一器官的不同部位的过氧化物酶同工酶的分析结果。结果表明:L.Peruvianum的各个生育期和不同器官的过氧化物酶同工酶谱带叠加共有28条带,L.hirsutum有29条带,L.pimpinellifolium有28条带,L.esculentum有27条带。种间过氧化物酶同工酶谱型差异明显,种内不同生育期叠加总酶谱基本一致。在根、茎和叶中,这四个种的过氧化物酶同工酶酶谱和活性具有相似的生育期变化规律和器官分布规律.在果实发育过程中,种间过氧化物酶同工酶酶谱、活性及变化律规都不相同。本文还就同工酶谱型相似值的意义,野生资源及同工酶分析技术在番茄育种中的应用等问题进行了讨论。     

华北区域环境梯度上阔叶林构建模式及分布成因

森林群落的构建即多样性维持机制是当今生态学研究的热点问题。然而, 当前群落构建和群落多样性的研究多在间接梯度上进行, 而在水、热等影响物种在区域内定植的关键且直接的环境梯度上研究群落构建和多样性模式则鲜有报道。结合环境因子, 基于物种组成和谱系方法探讨不同群落的分布成因, 有助于解释群落构建过程中的关键问题。该研究基于华北森林群落调查数据和环境数据, 涉及7个省市区的29个以壳斗科、桦木科为优势种的群落, 探讨了直接环境梯度上的群落构建和多样性模式, 同时用典范对应分析研究了不同群落分布的环境解释。结果发现, 相似的群落具有相似的生境偏好, 相似的生境条件会形成物种组成相同或相似的群落。环境热量主导了本区域的谱系关系, 在年平均气温较低的地区, 群落构建主要表现为生境过滤的模式。此外, 随着年降水量的增加, 生境过滤作用逐渐增加。在温度梯度上, 谱系多样性表现为钟形模式, 而降水量的增加能导致谱系多样性的增加。     

Distribution of anthocyanins in aceraceae leaves

The distribution of anthocyanins in spring sprouted and/or autumn coloured leaves of Dipteronia sinensis and Acer (119 taxa) was studied.

Dipteronia contained four cyanidin glycosides: the 3-glucoside, 3-rutinoside, 3-galloylglucoside and 3,5-diglucoside. Acer contained five cyanidin glycosides: 3-glucoside, 3-rutinoside, 3-galloylglucoside, 3-galloylrutinoside and 3,5-diglucoside, two delphinidin glucosides: 3-glucoside and 3-rutinoside and three unidentified anthocyanins. Both Dipteronia and Acer contained the recently reported cyanidin 3-galloylglucoside. The anthocyanin constituents in spring leaves were more complex than those found in autumn coloured leaves: nine in spring and six in autumn. The presence/absence of the major anthocyanins in the spring sprouted leaves of 111 Acer taxa analysed were grouped into 17 distribution patterns. In the autumn the number of anthocyanin distribution patterns was found to be 11. In Acer, cyanidin glycosides were found in 20 sections and delphinidin glycosides in 17 out of the 21 sections analysed. Although the distribution of anthocyanins showed no clear relations among sections, delphinidin glycosides were mainly found in sections Macrantha, Goniocarpa and Saccharina. There were no differences in the pigment constituents in the species native to different countries, such as A. rubrum in North America and A. pycnanthum in Japan, both containing the same pigments: cyanidin 3-glucoside, 3-rutinoside, 3-galloylglucoside, 3-galloylrutinoside and 3,5-diglucoside.     

Circadian Locomotor Activity in Freshwater Decapods: An Ecological Approach

Circadian rhythms of locomotor activity shown by freshwater decapods display different patterns among crayfish, Procambarus, and crabs, when exposed to artificial light-dark cycles. Crayfish are mainly nocturnal while a crepuscular activity is observed in crabs of the genus Pseudothelphusa. In constant darkness, free running rhythms are displayed in unimodal or bimodal patterns by crayfish Procambarus; however, Pseudothelphusa continues to show bimodal rhythms. The many studies using locomotor activity indicate that the rhythm in freshwater crabs is circadian in nature, but that a multioscillatory system may be controlling the overt rhythm. In the present study, the implications of different locomotor activity patterns are analyzed in selected freshwater decapods with regard to the interactions between light and the organisms. Crabs and crayfish are commonly found in similar habitats, often sharing the same environment; however, different patterns of locomotor activity as well as different sensitivities of the bouts of activity with regard to entrainment by light, indicate that distinct temporal niches may exist that result in temporal exclusion or low competition.

Prolyl 4-hydroxylase alpha-related proteins in Drosophila melanogaster: tissue-specific embryonic expression of the 99F8-9 cluster

Three retinaldehyde dehydrogenases (RALDH1, RALDH2 and RALDH3), which catalyze the oxidation of retinaldehyde into retinoic acid, have been shown to be differentially expressed during early embryogenesis. Here, we report their differential expression patterns throughout later mouse organogenesis. Raldh1 is prominently expressed in developing lung (notably in bronchial and tracheal epithelia), and shows stage-specific expression in stomach and intestine epithelial and mesenchymal layers. Raldh3 expression is specific to the differentiating intestinal lamina propria. Raldh2 is expressed throughout the kidney nephrogenic zone, whereas Raldh1 and Raldh3 are mostly expressed in collecting duct epithelia. Raldh3 expression is more restricted than that of Raldh1 in the urogenital tract and sex gland epithelia, whereas Raldh2 expression is mesenchymal. Raldh1 is coexpressed with Raldh2 in the early heart epicardium, and is later specifically expressed in developing heart valves. All three genes exhibit distinct expression patterns in respiratory and olfactory epithelia and/or mesenchymes, and in developing teeth. Only Raldh1 expression is seen after birth in specific brain structures. These data indicate a requirement for regulated RA synthesis in various differentiating organs.

Cloning,expression, and alternative splicing of neogenin1 in zebrafish

Nek6 and Nek7 are evolutionarily conserved murine kinases structurally related to the Aspergillus mitotic-regulator NIMA (Genomics 68 (2000) 187). Comparative in situ examination of their patterns of expression revealed that during early embryogenesis nek6 is highly expressed in primary giant trophoblast cells, while nek7 is expressed in the site of decidual reaction. Later in embryogenesis, both RNAs are almost exclusively restricted to the nervous system. nek6 is found in ventricular and sub-ventricular regions, while nek7 is highly expressed in the dorsal thalamus. In the adult brain, distinct nuclei express the two genes. The lineage- and tissue-specific patterns of expression suggest that the two NIMA-related kinases have (additional) functions that are not related to the mitotic functions of NIMA.     

青狗尾草RNAi途径相关基因的全基因组鉴定和表达分析

RNAi途径是RdDM途径的衍生途径,其中的AGO、DCL和RDR蛋白在植物的生长发育和响应非生物/生物胁迫过程中发挥重要作用。为了研究RNAi途径的3种主要蛋白在青狗尾草中的序列及结构特征,利用比较基因组学方法,在青狗尾草中鉴定到13个AGO基因、7个DCL基因和4个RDR基因,并对其蛋白质亚细胞定位、系统发育关系、保守结构域进行预测。同时,利用转录组数据分析RNAi途径的3类相关基因在青狗尾草的16种不同生长时期、不同生长条件下的表达模式。蛋白质结构域分析发现,SvDCL3b和SvRDR3缺少重要的结构域。转录组分析发现,SvAGO1b、SvDCL1a和SvRDR1在各家族中表达量较高,可能在RNAi途径中发挥主要作用,且大多数青狗尾草和谷子的同源基因间的表达模式基本一致。综上,本研究为理解RNAi途径的3种主要基因在调控青狗尾草的表观遗传修饰中的功能和作用提供初步的理论依据,为青狗尾草和谷子之间驯化的分子机制提供 参考。     

Developmental profiles of glial enzymes in the chick embryo: In vivo and in culture

The activities of two glial cell enzymes, glutamine synthetase (a marker for astrocytes) and 2′,3′-cyclic nucleotide 3′-phosphohydrolase (a marker for oligodendrocytes and myelination) were studied in the developing chick embryo brain in vivo and in cultures derived from chick embryos. The in vivo findings showed that the activities of both enzymes parallel the patterns of gliogenesis and myelination. Glutamine synthetase follows similar patterns in culture and in vivo, whereas the developmental profile of 2′,3′-cyclic nucleotide 3′-phosphohydrolase appears to be affected by the culture conditions.     

高秆野生稻内生固氮细菌多样性

高秆野生稻(Oryza alta)是一种重要的种质资源, 其组织内也蕴藏着非常宝贵的功能微生物资源。本实验采用无氮培养基, 从高秆野生稻中分离到43株内生固氮菌, 结合乙炔还原法测定其固氮酶活性。经固氮酶基因(nifH)的PCR扩增检测, 43株内生固氮菌代表菌株均能扩增出固氮酶基因片段。利用IS-PCR DNA指纹图谱和SDS-PAGE全细胞蛋白电泳图谱将获得的菌株聚类为6个类群(I、II、III、IV、V、VI)。对各个类群的代表菌株(ZF3, ZF8, ZF13, ZF15, ZF24, ZF43)进行16S rRNA基因序列测定, 结果表明, 类群I属于土生拉乌尔菌(Raoultella terrigena), 类群II属于类肺炎克雷伯氏菌类肺炎亚种(Klebsiella quasipnmoniae subsp. quasipneumoniae), 类群III属于越南伯克氏菌(Burkholderia vietnamiensis), 类群IV的菌株代表肠秆菌属的一个类群(Enterobacter sp.), 类群V的菌株属于门多萨假单胞菌(Pseudomonas mendocina), 类群VI归属于固氮植物菌(Phytobacter diazotrophicus)。Biolog聚类结果与IS-PCR指纹图谱类型及SDS-PAGE全细胞蛋白聚类结果一致。Biolog板测定结果显示, 来自不同类群的代表菌株对碳源的利用差异显著, 说明野生稻内多样的内生固氮菌从环境中获取碳源和氮素的适应能力较强。     

烟草乙烯转录因子ERF基因NtTOE3的克隆、载体构建及表达分析

ERF（Ethylene-responsive factor）是一类具有AP2特征结构域的乙烯应答转录因子,在响应植物的逆境胁迫应答中起关键作用。为明确ERF家族成员TOE3在烟草中的生物学功能和调控机制,同源克隆普通烟草K326中NtTOE3基因cDNA全长,利用实时荧光定量PCR（qRT-PCR）表征基因表达模式,结合生物信息学分析,对基因功能和调控机制进行初步预测。结果表明,该基因全长1 356 bp,编码451个氨基酸残基,预测分子量为49.84 ku。生物信息学分析表明,该蛋白是一个亲水蛋白,可能定位在细胞核,且与美花烟草（Nicotiana sylvestris）NsTOE3有96%的同源性,故命名为NtTOE3。组织表达分析发现,该基因在烟草根、茎、叶、花中均有表达,其中茎中表达量最高。逆境胁迫试验表明,该基因能快速响应低钾、高盐、干旱、H₂O₂、ABA和4℃等逆境处理。表明NtTOE3转录因子在烟草非生物胁迫中起着重要调节作用。
