淀粉质体遗传研究的现状与展望

淀粉质体来源于前质体,与叶绿体同源,具有其特有的遗传特性,是核外遗传的重要组成部分。本文综述了淀粉质体遗传研究方面取得的成果和进展。淀粉质体DNA发现于20世纪70年代,其含量随着组织发育的不同阶段有所变化,最后这些DNA作为贮藏的形式积累在质体中。淀粉质体基因组与叶绿体基因组同源性很高,但是不表达与光合作用有关的基因。现有的实验证据表明,淀粉质体基因组的表达调控发生在转录水平,与DNA甲基化有关。淀粉质体的发育受核基因组和质体基因组双重调控。组织发育到一定时期,淀粉质体中出现单核糖体和多聚核糖体;淀粉质体具有蛋白质合成体系。淀粉质体DNA及淀粉质体遗传的研究具有重要的理论和实际意义,对淀粉质体遗传进行深入的研究,将丰富核外遗传知识和理论。

硝酸银与脱落酸相配合影响菜心离体培养之植株再生方式的组织学研究

菜心带子叶的子叶柄在培养基中是否添加ＡｇＮＯ３与ＡＢＡ可导致两种不同的植株再生方式：添加ＡｇＮＯ３与ＡＢＡ时由外植体直接出芽,而不加ＡｇＮＯ３与ＡＢＡ则植株再生经过愈伤组织阶段再分化成芽。培养１—３ｄ,子叶柄切口端之皮层及维管束的薄壁细胞开始启动,细胞迅速分裂而形成分生细胞团和少量愈伤组织。第４天,在不含ＡｇＮＯ３与ＡＢＡ的培养基上,分生细胞团则形成根原基进而发育成根;或者去分化形成愈伤组织。在这种条件下,只有少数芽原基可由培养１５ｄ后的愈伤组织再分化产生．在含ＡｇＮＯ３与ＡＢＡ的培养基上,分生细胞旺盛增殖而形成大量分生细胞团,并由这种分生细胞团直接形成大量的芽原基．１０ｄ左右即可产生为数众多的丛生不定芽．ＡｇＮＯ３与ＡＢＡ相配合抑制了不定根及愈伤组织的形成和生长,促进大量增生的分生细胞团直接分化为不定芽的芽原基．

Ultrastructure of amyloplasts and intercellular transport of old and new scales inFritillaria ussuriensis

Amyloplast structure and intercellular transport in old and new scales ofFritillaria ussuriensis were observed by means of electron microscope. Most amyloplasts in old scales contained one starch grain, which was constructed by the layered deposition of starch around the hilum. Membrane systems and stroma of amyloplasts were pushed aside to form a shell surrounding the starch grain. In contrast, amyloplast shells in new scales contained a relatively light stroma and few internal membranes that were not organized into grana and stroma thylakoids. Active intercellular transport was observed in both new and old scales. Encytosis and exocytosis were common in the cell membrane and produced many vesicles containing numerous particles and filaments. These results lay the foundation for the further study on the mechanisms of growth and development in

Some cytological and physiochemical features relating to non-storability of pistachio (Pistacia vera L.) pollen

Pollen grains may become desiccated after independence from parent plants and remain viable in an inactive dry state during presentation and dispersal, until the conditions for rehydration and germination are prepared. But some pollen types do not tolerate the desiccation state and lose the germination power soon after release, and therefore, are difficult to store. In this study, moisture content, germinability, cytology and dehydrin and phenolics contents were surveyed in pistachio pollen at fresh and desiccated states. Mature pollen lost 54.1% of its initial moisture after 48 h desiccation along with severe decrease in germinability. Light microscopy results indicated that a low rate of pollen grains have vegetative cell rupture caused by desiccation, but a higher rate of grains were intact in appearance. Numerous amyloplasts persisted after desiccation as a sensitivity indicator. A 16 kDa dehydrin band was detected by western blot method with higher content in desiccated than fresh samples. High performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) analysis showed that the total content of phenolics increased slightly by desiccation. These results indicate the insufficiency of dehydrin and phenolics accumulation for achievement of desiccation tolerance. Furthermore, the severe loss of germinability in desiccated pistachio pollen may be the result of deficiency in some other protective mechanisms that need further investigations.

PHYLOGENETIC RELATIONSHIPS OF CAULERPA (CHLOROPHYTA) BASED ON COMPARATIVE CHLOROPLAST ULTRASTRUCTURE1,2

The ultrastructure of chloroplasts from 28 of the 73 species of Caulerpa Lamouroux (Chlorophyta, Caulerpales) has been studied to aid in interpreting phylogenetic relationships among the 12 recognized sections. Variations of systematic value include pyrenoid occurrence and fine structure, thylakoid architecture and amount of photosynthate storage. Comparisons of field and culture specimens indicate these characters are consistent. Chloroplast thylakoids are grouped into bands, with the distribution of bands differing among species. In the most common arrangement, bands are evenly distributed throughout the chloroplast. A few species show lateral displacement of bands whereas others have a majority of bands arranged at one end of the chloroplast. Starch is stored cither as one or two large grains (> 1 μm diam.) or numerous small grains (< 0.5 μm diam.). Electron-transparent regions are common in other species in which chloroplasts rarely store starch. Simple, embedded pyrenoids are present in several species of section Sedoideae. An opaque region occurs in chloroplasts of C. elongata which may represent an intermediate stage in the evolutionary loss of the pyrenoid. It is suggested that the chloroplast of Caulerpa evolved, from a large, complex, pyrenoid-containing organelle housing both photosynthetic and amylogenic functions, to a small, structurally simpler one, specialized for photosynthesis alone. A phylogeny of the 12 sections of Caulerpa is constructed, based on chloroplast evolution which agrees with an earlier morphology-based hypothesis on the origin and evolution of Caulerpa.     

铵减弱拟南芥主根向地性及其相关作用途径

向地性是决定植物根系空间构型的主要因素之一,对植物锚定和水分养分吸收至关重要。除了重力,根系向地性还受土壤环境因子影响。本文采用琼脂培养方法,研究了铵对拟南芥主根向地性反应的影响及相关作用途径。结果表明：短期内,不同浓度（NH4）2SO4均显著抑制主根向地性弯曲,但随着时间的延长,根尖向地性角度逐渐变小。而等（NH4）2SO4浓度的NaCl对主根向地性抑制效应较小,不同浓度的甘露醇不阻碍主根向地性弯曲。纽织化学染色结果显示铵处理12h以内,Col-0根尖没有淀粉体的快速降解过程,并且铵对淀粉体缺失突变体pgm—1主根向地性的影响同Col-0相似。铵处理部分恢复生长素转运载体突变体auxl-22和eir1-1主根向地性缺失。这些结果表明,铵对拟南芥主根向地性的影响独立于根尖淀粉体参与的重力感应途径。     

Antisense inhibition of plastidial phosphoglucomutase provides compelling evidence that potato tuber amyloplasts import carbon from the cytosol in the form of glucose-6-phosphate

The aim of this work was to establish whether plastidial phosphoglucomutase is involved in the starch biosynthetic pathway of potato tubers and thereby to determine the form in which carbon is imported into the potato amyloplast. For this purpose, we cloned the plastidial isoform of potato PGM (StpPGM), and using an antisense approach generated transgenic potato plants that exhibited decreased expression of the StpPGM gene and contained significantly reduced total phosphoglucomutase activity. We confirmed that this loss in activity was due specifically to a reduction in plastidial PGM activity. Potato lines with decreased activities of plastidial PGM exhibited no major changes in either whole-plant or tuber morphology. However, tubers from these lines exhibited a dramatic (up to 40%) decrease in the accumulation of starch, and significant increases in the levels of sucrose and hexose phosphates. As tubers from these lines exhibited no changes in the maximal catalytic activities of other key enzymes of carbohydrate metabolism, we conclude that plastidial PGM forms part of the starch biosynthetic pathway of the potato tuber, and that glucose-6-phosphate is the major precursor taken up by amyloplasts in order to support starch synthesis.
