ISSR标记在黑木耳单核体遗传分析中的应用

采用原生质体单核化和单孢分离法分别获得黑木耳Auricularia auricula栽培菌株新科5号两个亲本单核体(T1、T2)和33个F1代孢子单核体。从73条ISSR引物中筛选出13条可区分两个亲本单核体(T1、T2)的引物,对新科5号及F1代孢子单核体进行扩增,共扩增出70条带,其中63条在供试菌株间表现出多态性,多态位点百分率为90.0%。根据扩增结果采用软件NTsys2.10e计算菌株间的遗传相似系数并进行聚类分析,36个菌株间的遗传相似系数(GS值)的变化范围为0.2500～0.8382,其中T1和T2之间的GS值最小,遗传相似程度最低;F1代33个孢子单核体中24个与T1聚为一类,其余9个与T2聚为另一类,但并非严格按照交配型进行归类。试验表明黑木耳子实体上各个担子在减数分裂中染色体交换极具多样性,F1代孢子单核体表现出偏向其中一个亲本的现象,ISSR标记在黑木耳杂交育种中具有潜在的应用价值。

The A mating type and blue light regulate all known differentiation processes in the basidiomycete Coprinus cinereus

Monokaryons of Coprinus cinereus constitutively form small spores (oidia) in the aerial mycelium. Some strains also produce large, inflated single cells (chlamydospores) at the agar/air interface, and hyphal aggregates (hyphal knots) that can develop into sclerotia. Monokaryons show various reactions upon transformation with heterologous A mating type genes. Production of oidia in such A-activated transformants is repressed in the dark and induced by blue light. Five of six monokaryons tested following transformation with A genes showed induced production of hyphal knots and sclerotia in the dark, and at least three strains showed enhanced chlamydospore production in the dark. Continuous incubation under blue light inhibited formation of hyphal knots, sclerotia and chlamydospores in both competent monokaryons and in A-activated transformants. On artificial medium and on a 12?h light/12?h dark regime, A-activated transformants of one distinct monokaryon (218) formed fruit-body primordia that were arrested in development before karyogamy. Our studies show that A mating type genes control all major differentiation processes in Coprinus, but whether developmental processes can proceed depends on the genetic background of the strain.

Mating-Type Incompatibility between Commercial Strains of Lentinula edodes

Fox, H. M., Burden, J., Chang, S-T., and Peberdy, J. F. 1994. Mating-type incompatibility between commercial strains of Lentinula edodes. Experimental Mycology 18, 95-102. Lentinula edodes has a multiallelic tetrapolar mating system. Matings between monokaryotic isolates obtained from 21 strains of the fungus were carried out to investigate the number of A and B factors present in a range of commercially cultivated strains obtained from different areas of the world. Seventeen commercial stocks were characterized and found to have 9 different A factors and 10 different B factors, while 4 wild isolates from China were found to have 8 different A and B factors. Three A and 2 B factors were shared between the commercial and wild strains. In addition, the expected 1:1 ratio of nuclear types of the dikaryon was not obtained for homokaryotic protoplast regenerants. Recombination between B factors was not uncommon and when detected it was found to occur in different strains having the same A and B factors.     

Isolation of the <Emphasis Type="Italic">B</Emphasis> incompatibility factor mutants in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pleurotus ostreatus</Emphasis>

 B incompatibility factor mutants (Bmut) in Pleurotus ostreatus were recovered from common-B mating heterokaryons resulted from matings between wild-type monokaryons with different A but the same B factors (A1B2 and A2B2) after NTG mutagenesis. The mutant monokaryons such as A1B2mut and A2B2mut were observed to have regularly uninucleated hyphal cells and to be compatible with each other. Matings between A1B2mut and A2B2mut monokaryons produced stable heterokaryons (A1B2mut + A2B2mut) that had binucleated hyphal cells with true clamp connections and formed normal fruit-bodies. Mating tests using basidiospore progeny from each of these heterokaryons revealed the bipolar mating pattern. Genetic analysis suggested that the mutation of B factor in P. ostreatus might occur in the B incompatibility factor genes. Received: August 3, 2001 / Accepted: January 18, 2002     

The A mating-type genes of the mushroom Coprinus cinereus are not differentially transcribed in monokaryons and dikaryons

Summary The A mating type factor of Coprinus cinereus regulates part of a developmental sequence that leads to the conversion of the asexual monokaryon into the fertile dikaryon. The A42 factor is a complex of seven genes, at least four of which are involved in determining the specificity of mating interactions. In this report we show that the A42 genes are constitutively expressed in both monokaryons and dikaryons. This has important implications with respect to intracellular recognition of a compatible mating, which requires an interaction between proteins already present within the cells of the mating partners, and for the subsequent maintenance of dikaryotic growth.     

The constitution of incompatibility factor and mating characteristics of spore isolates in a bipolar mushroom, <Emphasis Type="Italic">Pholiota nameko</Emphasis>

Pholiota nameko is a wood-rotting edible mushroom that carries a bipolar A incompatibility factor gene. The linkage analysis of the multiple allelomorphic A factor gene demonstrated that sexual reproduction produced a monospore isolate carrying a new A factor gene in addition to two parental mating types of isolates. However, 10%–30% of the modified monospore isolates could not produce a dikaryon with both of the parental monokaryons by crossing. It is concluded that the bipolar A incompatibility factor gene of P. nameko is constituted of two functional subunits, Aα and Aβ, which might be successively located beside each other with an apparent genetic distance of 0.3 centi-Morgan between them on the same chromosome. Further, some monospore isolates that did not conjugate with both parental monokaryons could produce dikaryons with different monokaryotic stocks with either one of the parental mating types. This result suggests that the crossing capability of these isolates were essentially those for one of the mating types of the parental monokaryons, but that their function for mating activity was made partially by unequal crossing-over in the process of sexual recombination.

Fungal fidelity: Nuclear divorce from a dikaryon by mating or monokaryon regeneration

Basidiomycete fungi perform fertilizations by incorporation of nuclei into a monokaryotic mycelium to establish a dikaryon. The dikaryon cannot incorporate another type of nucleus, but can still act as a nucleus donor in a dikaryon–monokaryon (di–mon) mating, known as the Buller phenomenon. Previously, it has been observed that: (1) in a particular di–mon mating, one of the nuclear types of the dikaryon generally performs better as a donor than the other, and (2) when nuclei from a dikaryon are separated to form monokaryons again (dedikaryotisation), recovery of monokaryons of the two nuclear types is usually unequal. In this study, we investigated if these two observations of asymmetry are functionally related. We tested this hypothesis by performing both di–mon matings and dedikaryotisation of dikaryons derived from five different monokaryons. When a single mechanism controls both processes, the nucleus better at fertilizing a monokaryon in a Buller pairing should also be recovered upon dedikaryotisation with a higher frequency. The results showed a hierarchical structure for recovery among nuclei in dedikaryotisation, but this hierarchy did not correspond to the fertilization success during di–mon mating. These findings thus show that the mechanism causing asymmetric regeneration of nuclei, is most likely not the same as the mechanism responsible for increased chance of fertilization in di–mon matings. We discuss the complexity of the interactions that occur during di–mon matings with regards to the mating type loci.     

香菇交配型因子次级重组体的鉴定

对13个香菇菌株的担孢子后代进行了交配型分析,其中8个菌株非亲和反应与亲和反应之比与预期的3∶1的比例无显著差异。另外5个菌株非亲和反应与亲和反应之比不符合3∶1,其中4个菌株在0.05显著水平的X2值仅略高于理论值,而另一菌株HL01具有特殊的表现,其单核体132个随机配对的非亲和反应与亲和反应之比为82∶50,X2值显著偏离3∶1的临界值。用4个标准测试菌株鉴定了来自HL01同一子实体的189个孢子单核体的交配型,在189个单核体中,161个单核体归于4种正常交配型(A1B1,A2B2,A1B2,A2B1)之一。而另外28个可能源于次级重组的单核体可分成另外4个类群。通过以所有可能的组合进行配对杂交,进一步分析了28个单核体的交配型。结果表明,次级重组同时在A因子和B因子中发生,重组值分别为8.5%和11.6%。A因子至少由2个亚基组成而B因子可能由不止2个亚基组成。随后的出菇试验表明,至少含有1个重组体的所有可亲和配对均具有结实能力。

Kraft Pulp Bleaching and Delignification by Dikaryons and Monokaryons of Trametes versicolor

The ability of 10 dikaryotic and 20 monokaryotic strains of Trametes (Coriolus) versicolor to bleach and delignify hardwood and softwood kraft pulps was assessed. A dikaryon (52P) and two of its mating-compatible monokaryons (52J and 52D) derived via protoplasting were compared. All three regularly bleached hardwood kraft pulp more than 20 brightness points (International Standards Organization) in 5 days and softwood kraft pulp the same amount in 12 days. Delignification (kappa number reduction) by the dikaryon and the monokaryons was similar, but the growth of the monokaryons was slower. Insoluble dark pigments were commonly found in the mycelium, medium, and pulp of the dikaryon only. Laccase and manganese peroxidase (MnP) but not lignin peroxidase activities were secreted during bleaching by all three strains. Their laccase and MnP isozyme patterns were compared on native gels. No segregation of isozyme bands between the monokaryons was found. Hardwood kraft pulp appeared to adsorb several laccase isozyme bands. One MnP isozyme (pI, 3.2) was secreted in the presence of pulp by all three strains, but a second (pI, 4.9) was produced only by 52P. A lower level of soluble MnP activity in one monokaryon (52D) was associated with reduced bleaching ability and a lower level of methanol production. Since monokaryon 52J bleached pulp better than its parent dikaryon 52P, especially per unit of biomass, this genetically simpler monokaryon will be the preferred subject for further genetic manipulation and improvement of fungal pulp biological bleaching.     

The cell type ofRhodosporidium toruloides after protoplast fusion between strains of identical and opposite mating type

Protoplast fusions between strains of identical and of opposite mating type were performed. Sexual crosses and protoplast fusions inRhodosporidium toruloides led to different hybrid types. Sexual crosses gave rise exclusively to a dikaryotic mycelium. In protoplast fusions between strains of identical mating type (A ora), monokaryotic yeast-like hybrids which sustained the parental mating type were obtained. In protoplast fusions between strains of opposite mating type, the majority of the hybrids belonged to theMyc ⁺ type, i.e., the hybrids grew like yeasts, able to switch over spontaneously to mycelial growth. In addition to theMyc ⁺ types, up to 10% real yeast hybrids and less than 5% dikaryotic mycelia were obtained. Obviously the cell type inR. toruloides is under the control of the mating type alleles.     

Comparative genomics of the mating-type loci of the mushroom Flammulina velutipes reveals widespread synteny and recent inversions

Background

Mating-type loci of mushroom fungi contain master regulatory genes that control recognition between compatible nuclei, maintenance of compatible nuclei as heterokaryons, and fruiting body development. Regions near mating-type loci in fungi often show adapted recombination, facilitating the generation of novel mating types and reducing the production of self-compatible mating types. Compared to other fungi, mushroom fungi have complex mating-type systems, showing both loci with redundant function (subloci) and subloci with many alleles. The genomic organization of mating-type loci has been solved in very few mushroom species, which complicates proper interpretation of mating-type evolution and use of those genes in breeding programs.

Methodology/Principal Findings

We report a complete genetic structure of the mating-type loci from the tetrapolar, edible mushroom Flammulina velutipes mating type A3B3. Two matB3 subloci, matB3a that contains a unique pheromone and matB3b, were mapped 177 Kb apart on scaffold 1. The matA locus of F. velutipes contains three homeodomain genes distributed over 73 Kb distant matA3a and matA3b subloci. The conserved matA region in Agaricales approaches 350 Kb and contains conserved recombination hotspots showing major rearrangements in F. velutipes and Schizophyllum commune. Important evolutionary differences were indicated; separation of the matA subloci in F. velutipes was diverged from the Coprinopsis cinerea arrangement via two large inversions whereas separation in S. commune emerged through transposition of gene clusters.

Conclusions/Significance

In our study we determined that the Agaricales have very large scale synteny at matA (∼350 Kb) and that this synteny is maintained even when parts of this region are separated through chromosomal rearrangements. Four conserved recombination hotspots allow reshuffling of large fragments of this region. Next to this, it was revealed that large distance subloci can exist in matB as well. Finally, the genes that were linked to specific mating types will serve as molecular markers in breeding.     

Relationship between Monokaryotic Growth Rate and Mating Type in the Edible Basidiomycete Pleurotus ostreatus

The edible fungus Pleurotus ostreatus (oyster mushroom) is an industrially produced heterothallic homobasidiomycete whose mating is controlled by a bifactorial tetrapolar genetic system. Two mating loci (matA and matB) control different steps of hyphal fusion, nuclear migration, and nuclear sorting during the onset and progress of the dikaryotic growth. Previous studies have shown that the segregation of the alleles present at the matB locus differs from that expected for a single locus because (i) new nonparental B alleles appeared in the progeny and (ii) there was a distortion in the segregation of the genomic regions close to this mating locus. In this study, we pursued these observations by using a genetic approach based on the identification of molecular markers linked to the matB locus that allowed us to dissect it into two genetically linked subunits (matBα and matBβ) and to correlate the presence of specific matBα and matA alleles with differences in monokaryotic growth rate. The availability of these molecular markers and the mating type dependence of growth rate in monokaryons can be helpful for marker-assisted selection of fast-growing monokaryons to be used in the construction of dikaryons able to colonize the substrate faster than the competitors responsible for reductions in the industrial yield of this fungus.

Synthesis and pharmacological evaluation of novel 1,3,8- and 1,3,7,8-substituted xanthines as adenosine receptor antagonists

A number of novel xanthines bearing a variety of substituents at positions 1, 3, 7 and 8 were prepared and evaluated for their binding affinity to the human adenosine receptor A₁, A_2A, A_2B and A₃ subtypes. Several of the 1,3,8- and 1,3,7,8-substituted xanthines showed moderate-to-high affinity at human A_2B and A₁ receptors, with the most active compound (14q) having a pK_i of 7.57 nM for hA_2B receptors and a selectivity over hA_2A receptors of 8.1-fold and hA₁ receptors of 3.7-fold.
