Allium fistulosum harbours a number of desirable agronomical traits for the breeding of onions. However exploitation of A. fistulosum for onion breeding via direct sexual hybridization is problematic. Therefore, we examined if a bridge cross, using A. roylei as a bridging species, might provide an alternative. By means of genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) we showed that each
of the three parental genomes can be distinguished from the others in interspecific hybrids, suggesting that these genomes
contain sufficiently different repetitive DNA families. We succeeded in carrying out multi-colour GISH to metaphase spreads
of a first-generation bridge-cross individual [A. cepa× (A. fistulosum×A. roylei], which is composed of three parental genomes. Recombination between the genomes of A. fistulosum and A. roylei took place to a large extent: 7 recombined chromosomes were observed, and it could be shown that the proximal regions of
the recombined A. fistulosum/A. roylei chromosomes belonged to the former, whereas the distal parts belonged to the latter. The high percentage of bound bivalent
arms in metaphase I of pollen mother cells of a fertile bridge-cross individual suggests the introgression of A. fistulosum genes, mediated by A. roylei, into the genome of A. cepa. However, the presence of univalents reflects decreased pairing and recombination between the three genomes. Pollen fertility
and pollen-tube growth of the first-generation bridge-cross individual seem to be sufficient to produce a second generation
bridge-cross (A. cepa×first-generation bridge cross) progeny.

Trigonelline alkaloid is present in coffee beans, and during roasting it gives rise to the major coffee aroma compounds (several
alkyl-pyridines and pyrroles). In this study we investigated the genetic inheritance of trigonelline accumulation in green
beans in an interspecific cross between a wild east African species, Coffea pseudozanguebariae (PSE) and the west African species C. liberica var. dewevrei (DEW). Trigonelline content was measured by HPLC in both parental species, F1 hybrids and the reciprocal backcross hybrids (BCDEW and BCPSE). The results showed that, on average, PSE accumulated twice
as much trigonelline as DEW. No year effect or interaction (genotype×year) was recorded. Trigonelline showed high heritability
(71%), which meant that the genotypic value could be easily estimated from the phenotypic value. However, the fact that this
trait was not additive suggested the possibility of nucleo-cytoplasmic inheritance. This hypothesis was confirmed by: (1)
similar levels of trigonelline content in the PSE, F1, BCPSE and BCDEW groups, all having the same maternal cytoplasm, and (2) the location of one nuclear QTL on the G linkage
group.

Hybridisation between certain willow species is a common feature leading to novel genotypes varying in growth rate and stress tolerance. The objective of this 4-week study was to investigate the effects of decreased watering, enhanced ultraviolet-B irradiation (UV-BBE, 280–315 nm, 7.2 kJ m−2 day−1) and combined decreased watering and enhanced UV-B irradiation on di- and polyamines in the leaves of Salix myrsinifolia and its hybrid with S. myrsinites. Control plantlets were well-watered and exposed to ambient UV-B irradiation (UV-BBE, 3.6 kJ m−2 day−1). HPLC analyses showed that the constitutive concentrations of soluble di- and polyamines varied markedly between S. myrsinifolia and its hybrids. The degree of responses to treatments also varied: in S. myrsinifolia, concentrations of free putrescine were clearly increased by reduced watering, while in the hybrid willow, change in putrescine was less pronounced and not significant. Results also showed that the increase in putrescine in S. myrsinifolia by reduced watering was mitigated by concurrent enhancement of UV-B irradiation. There were no direct UV-B effects on the soluble polyamines. 相似文献

Pelargonium × hortorum ‘Grand Prix’ which is susceptible to leaf yellowing and ‘Bergpalais’ which is not susceptible to leaf yellowing were chosen for the experiments. Ethylene production and action as well as the associated morphological response of Pelargonium shoots grown in the presence of a precursor of ethylene biosynthesis 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC), ethylene inhibitors: α-aminooxyacetic acid (AOA) and silver nitrate (AgNO3) and different cytokinins: (meta-topolin) (mT) or 6-benzylaminopurine (BAP) were studied. It was found that ‘Grand Prix’ was more sensitive to ethylene than ‘Bergpalais’ and it showed the leaf yellowing in response to 0.1 mg l?1 ACC. Moreover, it was noted that ACC added separately or together with cytokinin influenced Pelargonium morphogenesis. Depending on the concentration of ACC (0.1–2.0 mg l?1), it either stimulated or inhibited shoot and root formation as well as the growth of shoots and leaf blades. ACC-induced leaf yellowing in ‘Grand Prix’ was effectively inhibited by mT. In contrast, BAP did not enhance shoot quality. Simultaneously, the presence of mT in the medium resulted in up to a twofold increase in the ethylene production by ‘Grand Prix’ shoots throughout the culture period compared with the shoots growing on the BAP-medium. The inhibitor of ethylene action (AgNO3) added with cytokinin prevented the yellowing of Pelargonium shoots, but simultaneously influenced the formation of mature shoots with limited long-term multiplication potential. The shoots of P. × hortorum ‘Grand Prix’ treated with AgNO3 and mT emitted two- and sevenfold more ethylene after 11th and 21st day of culture compared with those treated with AgNO3 and BAP. It is suggested that mT inhibits the early senescence of Pelargonium in vitro by decreasing its sensitivity to ethylene. 相似文献

A new hybrid palm, ×Attabignya minarum, from the Rio São Francisco Valley of Minas Gerais, Brazil is described. It is a natural hybrid betweenAttalea compta Mart. andOrbignya oleifera Burret and is quite common in the area studied. Most of the morphological characters of the hybrid are intermediate between those of the parent species. A notable exception is the number of fruits produced; ×Attabignya minarum produces more fruits per panicle than either parent species. This is the first report of hybridization betweenOrbignya andAttalea and may shed light on the status ofOrbignya, considered by some to be synonymous withAttalea. 相似文献

The aim was to produce tetraploid forms of hybrids of Syringa vulgaris × S. pinnatifolia to restore fertility and enable further breeding to be undertaken. Excised nodal sections of three selections were pre-cultured
for 5 days then treated with a range of colchicine concentrations for 1, 2 or 3 days, after which they were washed three times
in sterile distilled water and cultured on shoot proliferation medium. Frequent movement to fresh medium was beneficial to
survival. Three successive experiments established the range of concentrations of colchicine, 0.05 mM to 0.25 mM, at which
tetraploids were likely to be produced. Thus a protocol for the production of tetraploids was established. Cytometric analysis
showed that tetraploid forms of two selections were produced.

The Holantarctic Sphagnum ×falcatulum s.l. is a cryptic species complex comprised of the allo-allo-triploid S. ×falcatulum s.s. and its immediate progenitors: the haploid (S. cuspidatum) and an unnamed allo-diploid species. The Holantarctic distributions of the members of this complex are presently unclear. Prior genetic study has shown that (1) amphi-Pacific S. ×falcatulum s.s. is the most widespread Sphagna in the Holantarctic, (2) S. cuspidatum is present in Queensland, Australia, and (3) the allo-diploid plants occur on South Island, New Zealand. Using genetic and morphological analyses, we document the occurrence of S. ×falcatulum s.s. on mainland Australia and on North Island, New Zealand as well as the occurrence of the allo-diploid plants on Chatham Island, New Zealand. The allo-diploid plants on South Island and those on Chatham Island are found to be closely related and the Chatham Island population appears to have been established by long distance dispersal. It is concluded that the type of S. irritans, which was collected on Chatham Island, and the three Chatham Island allo-diploid specimens are the same taxon. Thus the allo-diploid plants are assigned to S. ×irritans. Having a history of inter-subgeneric hybridisation, there is notable morphological variation associated with S. ×irritans. Although several morphotypes occur in the South Island population, just one morphotype was detected among the Chatham Island specimens examined. Further study is required to determine both the genetic divergence between these two island populations as well as the taxonomic status of the various morphotypes associated with S. ×irritans. 相似文献

In the beginning of the 20th century, enzymes with proteolytic activity were classified as peptidases, Erepsin, and proteases. Among these, pepsin, trypsin, and autolytic enzymes were of the protease class. Spleen-derived proteases were poorly characterized until Sven Gustaf Hedin performed several digestion experiments with bovine spleen. He incubated minced bovine spleen under acidic or neutral conditions and characterized two active proteases; the results were published in 1903. The first protease was named α-protease and was active under neutral conditions. The second was named β-protease and was active under acidic conditions. We replicated Hedin's experiments according to his methods and found, by using activity-based probes to visualize proteases, that the historical α-protease is the present-day serine protease cathepsin G (CatG), which is known to be important in several immune processes, including antigen processing, chemotaxis, and activation of surface receptors. The β-protease, however, comprised different proteases including CatX, B, S, and D. We suggest that Hedin described CatG activity in bovine spleen over 100 years ago. 相似文献

Synthetic calcitonin injected into the lateral ventricles (ICV) of rats at picomolar concentration restores the “fasted” motility pattern of the small intestine in fed rats at doses as low as 0.083 picomoles. This effect which appeared in less than 5 min and persisted at least 2 hours for 0.83 picomole, was blocked by a previous intraventricular administration of 10 μg of calcium gluconate. At 0.83 picomole ICV, calcitonin also suppressed the disruption of the “fasted” pattern induced by intravenous infusion of Pentagastrin (6 μg·kg?1·h?1) but not that induced by insulin (0.5 U·kg?1). These findings support the hypothesis that calcitonin acts centrally to control the pattern of intestinal motility by inhibiting the digestive influences responsible for the “fed” pattern. All of these peripheral influences are mediated by a Ca++ sensitive central structure. 相似文献

To assess the fate of the large amounts of nitrogen (N) brought into the environment by human activities, we constructed N budgets for sixteen large watersheds (475 to 70,189 km2) in the northeastern U.S.A. These watersheds are mainly forested (48–87%), but vary widely with respect to land use and population density. We combined published data and empirical and process models to set up a complete N budget for these sixteen watersheds. Atmospheric deposition, fertilizer application, net feed and food inputs, biological fixation, river discharge, wood accumulation and export, changes in soil N, and denitrification losses in the landscape and in rivers were considered for the period 1988 to 1992. For the whole area, on average 3420 kg of N is imported annually per km2 of land. Atmospheric N deposition, N2 fixation by plants, and N imported in commercial products (fertilizers, food and feed) contributed to the input in roughly equal contributions. We quantified the fate of these inputs by independent estimates of storage and loss terms, except for denitrification from land, which was estimated from the difference between all inputs and all other storage and loss terms. Of the total storage and losses in the watersheds, about half of the N is lost in gaseous form (51%, largely by denitrification). Additional N is lost in riverine export (20%), in food exports (6%), and in wood exports (5%). Change in storage of N in the watersheds in soil organic matter (9%) and wood (9%) accounts for the remainder of the sinks. The presence of appreciable changes in total N storage on land, which we probably under-rather than overestimated, shows that the N budget is not in steady state, so that drainage and denitrification exports of N may well increase further in the future. 相似文献
