A method for micropropagation of mature trees of Capparis decidua was developed. Multiple shoots were obtained from nodal explants on Murashige and Skoog's (1962) medium+0.1mgl–1 NAA+5.0mgl–1BAP+additives (50mgl–1 ascorbic acid and25 mgl–1 each of adenine sulphate, L-arginine and citric acid) at 28 ± 2°C, 12 h/dphotoperiod and 35–40 mol m-2s–1 photon flux density. The shoots were multiplied by (i) subculture of nodal shoot segments onto MS +0.1 mgl-–1 IAA+1.0mgl–1 BAPH+additives, and (ii) repeated transfer of original explant onto MS+ 0.1mgl–1 IAA+mg l–1 BAP+additives, at intervals of 3 weeks. Sixty to 70% of the shoots rooted when pulse treated with 100 mg l–1 IBA in half strength MS liquid medium for 4h, and then transferred onto hormone-free half-strength agar-gelled MS basal saltmedium. Incubation in dark at 33 ± 2°C for 6d favoured root induction. In vitro hardened plants were transferred to pots.Abbreviations IAA

We report the isolation of the murine ortholog of AIM1, a human gene whose expression is associated with the reversal of
tumorigenicity in an experimental model of melanoma. Mouse and human AIM1 are more than 90% identical in amino acid sequence
in the βγ-crystallin repeats and the C-terminal domain, and more than 75% identical in the extended N-terminal domain. Consistent
with the isolated cDNA representing the authentic AIM1 ortholog, linkage analysis localized mouse Aim1 to proximal mouse Chromosome (Chr) 10 in a conserved linkage group with genes localized to human Chr band 6q21. Searches
of EST databases identified a second AIM1-like gene in both mouse and human, suggesting the existence of a gene family. Northern
analysis demonstrates Aim1 is expressed most abundantly in adult skin, lung, heart, liver, and kidney and is temporally regulated during embryogenesis.
Aim1 is expressed highly in the shaft region of the hair follicles and the presumptive ectoderm, but not at detectable levels
in melanocytes or melanocyte precursor cells.

We report here the cloning and tissue distribution of the human B3GALT7 gene, a member of the beta1,3-Glycosyltransferase family, structurally related to the beta1,3-Galactosyltransferase family and beta1,3- N -acetylglucosaminyltransferase family, isolated from a human lung cDNA library. B3GALT7 is mapped to chromosome 19q13.2 by browsing the UCSC genomic database. It contains an ORF with length of 1191bp, encoding a protein with a signal peptide sequence and galactosyl-T domain, and its molecular weight and isoelectric point is predicted to be 43.3 kDa and 8.67 respectively. The molecular weight of the protein when expressed in E. coli corresponded to that expected. Northern blotting showed that B3GALT7 was highly expressed in lung, throat and ileum, whereas the expression level was low in tongue, breast, uteri, testis. In addition, it was also demonstrated that B3GALT7 is differentially transcribed in human tumor cell lines. 相似文献

Multiple shoots were obtained from terminal buds of 20-year-old trees of Eucalyptus citriodora Hook on Murashige and Skoog's medium supplemented with calcium pantothenate, biotin, benzylaminopurine and kinetin. Rooting could be induced by naphthalene-acetic acid in shoot cultures only after they had undergone three subcultures. Incubation at 15°C with continuous illumination followed by growth in agitated liquid cultures was essential for inducing shoot development in the primary terminal buds. These treatments were not necessary in later subcultures or with explants from seedlings obtained from seeds. Fifteen subcultures have so far been carried out and healthy viable plantlets obtained in each subculture. It is estimated that over 100 000 plants can be obtained by this method in a year from a single bud of mature Eucalyptus citriodora trees. 相似文献

Callus and micropropagated shoots were initiated from leaf explants of the neem tree, Azadirachta indica A. Juss. A variety of whole plant and in vitro cell cultures from neem seedlings of Ghanian origin were tested for insect antifeedant compounds using the desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria (Forskål)). Feeding suppression occurred when whole extracts of seed, leaf, callus, suspension and shoot cultures were tested in no-choice feeding bioassays. Controls of sucrose, carrot callus and the plant growth medium showed no feeding deterrence. Azadirachtin, the main known antifeedant in neem seed kernels, was quantified from a seed extract by HPLC but was not detected in any of the other extracts. Antifeedancy was determined during batch growth of a suspension culture which had been in culture for 5 months; results indicated that antifeedants were still being formed and that levels increased after maximum biomass was attained. 相似文献

Molecular analyses of the last decades helped solving the major open questions on the external and internal phylogenetic relationships of primates. The present review uses these data for the inference of character evolution along the branches of the primate tree. Altogether, more than 200 evolutionary changes in hard and soft tissue anatomy/morphology, behavior, physiology, and protein constitution are presented in the context of their functional relevance and adaptive value. The compilation focuses on primates as a whole and on the higher-ranked primate subtaxa with living representatives: Strepsirhini: Lorisiformes, Galagidae, Lorisidae, Lemuriformes; Haplorhini: Tarsioidea, Anthropoidea, Platyrrhini, Atelidae + Cebidae, Atelidae, Cebidae, Aotinae, Callithrichinae, Cebinae, Pitheciidae, Pithecinae, Catarrhini, Cercopithecoidea, Cercopithecinae, Colobinae, Colobini, and Hominoidea. Within Hominoidea character evolution is traced down to more peripheral branches: Hylobatidae, Hominidae, Pongo, Homininae, Gorilla, Pan + Homo, Pan, and modern humans. Character states in extinct representatives of Plesiadapiformes, Omomyoidea, Propliopithecidae, Hominini, etc. are always taken into account; they are presented in detail whenever character-state distribution in living species is ambiguous or misleading. The taxonomic sample and the characters included combine to a phylogenetic system that illustrates primate evolution and diversity. The data presented additionally provide a detailed picture of the evolutionary steps and trends involved in hominization. Reflections on the frequently underestimated role of polymorphisms in phylogenetic analyses complete the survey. 相似文献

The novel flavonoid, leucocyanidin-3-O-β-D-glucoside, possessing a 4,2″-glycosidic linkage was isolated from green mature acerola (Malpighia emarginata DC.) puree and given the trivial name “aceronidin.” To examine the functions of aceronidin, its antioxidative activity and both its α-glucosidase and α-amylase inhibition activities, as a potential inhibitor of the sugar catabolic enzyme, were evaluated against those of taxifolin, catechin, isoquercitrin and quercitrin which each have a similar structure. The 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical quenching activity of aceronidin was stronger than that of α-tocopherol and comparable to that of flavonoids. In the yeast α-glucosidase inhibitory assay, aceronidin showed significantly greater inhibition than the other flavonoids tested. In the human salivary α-amylase inhibitory assay, aceronidin showed inhibition activity. Taken together, these results indicate aceronidin to be a potent antioxidant that may be valuable as an inhibitor of sugar catabolic enzymes. 相似文献

Two-year-old sweet chestnut trees were grown outside in normal or double CO2 atmospheric concentration. In spring and in autumn of two growing seasons, a six day labelling pulse of14C labelled CO2 was used to follow the carbon assimilation and distribution in the plant-soil system. Doubling atmospheric CO2 had a significant effect on the tree net carbon uptake. A large proportion of the additional C uptake was lost through the root system. This suggests that increased C uptake under elevated CO2 conditions increases C cycling without necessarily increasing C storage in the plant. Total root derived material represented a significant amount of the extra-assimilated carbon due to the CO2 treatment and was strongly correlated with the phenological stage of the tree. Increasing root rhizodeposition led to a stimulation of microbial activity, particularly near the end of the growing season. When plant rhizodeposition was expressed as a function of the root dry weight, the effect of increasing CO2 resulted in a higher root activity. The C to N ratios were significantly higher for trees grown under elevated CO2 except for the fine root compartment. An evaluation of the plant-soil system nitrogen dynamics showed, during the second season of CO2 treatment, a decrease of soil N mineralization rate and total N uptake for trees grown at elevated CO2 levels. 相似文献

Coconut (Cocos nucifera L.) is an economically tropical fruit tree with special fatty acid compositions. The stearoyl-acyl carrier protein (ACP) desaturase (SAD) plays a key role in the properties of the majority of cellular glycerolipids. In this paper, a full-length cDNA of a stearoyl-acyl carrier protein desaturase, designated CocoFAD, was isolated from cDNA library prepared from the endosperm of coconut (C. nucifera L.). An 1176 bp cDNA from overlapped PCR products containing ORF encoding a 391-amino acid (aa) protein was obtained. The coded protein was virtually identical and shared the homology to other Δ9-desaturase plant sequences (greater than 80% as similarity to that of Elaeis guineensis Jacq). The real-time fluorescent quantitative PCR result indicated that the yield of CocoFAD was the highest in the endosperm of 8-month-old coconut and leaf, and the yield was reduced to 50% of the highest level in the endosperm of 15-month-old coconut. The coding region showed heterologous expression in strain INVSc1 of yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). GC–MS analysis showed that the levels of palmitoleic acid (16:1) and oleic acid (18:1) were improved significantly; meanwhile stearic acid (18:0) was reduced. These results indicated that the plastidial Δ9 desaturase from the endosperm of coconut was involved in the biosynthesis of hexadecenoic acid and octadecenoic acid, which was similar with other plants. These results may be valuable for understanding the mechanism of fatty acid metabolism and the genetic improvement of CocoFAD gene in palm plants in the future. 相似文献

We investigated the reproductive system of the threatened taxon Dombeya acutangula ssp. acutangula Cav. (Sterculiaceae), an endemic tree of the Mascarene archipelago (Indian Ocean). A controlled crossing experiment was performed
in two natural populations located in the remnants of the low-elevation dry forest on the island of La Réunion. Active pollination,
probably mainly by insects, was necessary for reproduction in this species. Individuals varied in their degree of self-sterility
from 0 to 100%. Outcrossing between nearby individuals produced lower seed set than did crosses between more distant individuals
within one of the two tested populations. The variation in reproductive success on selfing and in the different types of crosses
could result from inbreeding depression causing embryo death, and we provide evidence that progenies from selfing have lower
seed size and quality. However, for inbreeding depression to account for the dramatic variation in seed set found in our crossing
experiment, the distribution of genetic load and number of lethal factors required appear unrealistic. We favour an alternative
interpretation, that D. acutangula possesses an incompatibility system similar to that found in other Sterculiaceae species such as Theobroma cacao L. Such an incompatibility system allows a certain amount of selfing, and different individuals vary in their degree of self-incompatibility.
The low success of crosses among close neighbours in one population suggests that there was spatial structure for incompatibility
alleles in that population. This could partly explain the decline of the species in fragmented and disturbed habitats, since
relatedness at incompatibility loci may increase in small or isolated population and thus reduce mate availability.

The production of -amylase byBacillus amyloliquefaciens in both complex and synthetic culture media was examined at a laboratory fermenter scale. In a complex medium which supports fast growth rates, enzyme production occurred only when the growth rate declined, principally in the stationary phase. By contrast, in a synthetic culture medium with lactose as the carbon source supporting much lower growth rates, enzyme formation occurred simultaneously with cell growth. The repression of enzyme formation during rapid growth may be due either to catabolite repression or to the low level of mRNA synthesis concerned with the production of exoproteins. 相似文献

Tapping causes the loss of large amounts of latex from laticifers and subsequently enhances latex regeneration, a high carbon- and nitrogen-cost activity in rubber tree. It is suggested that a 67 kDa protein associated with protein-storing cells in the inner bark tissues of rubber tree plays an important role in meeting the nitrogen demand for latex regeneration. Here, the 67 kDa protein was further characterized by a combination of cell biological, molecular biological and biochemical techniques. Immunogold labeling showed that the 67 kDa protein was specifically localized in the central vacuole of protein-storing cells. A full-length cDNA, referred to as HbVSP1, was cloned. The HbVSP1 contained a 1584 bp open reading frame encoding a protein of 527 amino acids. The putative protein HbVSP1 shared high identity with the P66 protein from rubber tree and proteins of the linamarase, and bg1A from cassava (Manihot esculenta). HbVSP1 contained the active site sequences of β-glucosidase, TFNEP and I/VTENG. In vitro analysis showed that the 67 kDa protein exhibited the activity of both β-glucosidase and linamarase and was thus characterized as a cyanogenic β-glucosidase. Proteins immuno-related to the 67 kDa protein were present in leaves and lutoids of laticifers. Tapping down-regulated the expression of HbVSP1, but up-regulated the expression of genes encoding the key enzymes for rubber biosynthesis, while the effect of resting from tapping was the reverse. Taken together, the results suggest that the 67 kDa protein is a vacuole-localized cyanogenic β-glucosidase encoded by HbVSP1 and may have a role in nitrogen storage in inner bark tissues of trunk during the leafless periods when rubber tree is rested from tapping. 相似文献

Mouse sp56 is considered as one of the candidates for mouse zona pellucida 3(mZP3)receptor,Up to date,its homologue has only been cloned from guinea pig,namely,AM67.Based on the cDNA sequence of mouse sp56,we designed a pair of primer to amplify its homologue from rat testis cDNA.Using RT-PCR, two tragments of 743 bp and 938 bp were amplified.The PCR products show very high homology to mouse sp56.However,the 743 bp product completely lacks one of the seven Sushi domains of mouse sp56.Using the 743 bp product as the probe to detect the expression profile of sp56 in rat tissues,Northern blot shows that a-2.0kb mRNA expresses specifically in testis.Employed the RACE method,two full cDNA sequences of rat sp56 were obtained.A Mr-42KD band was detected in denatured and non-reducing protein sample of rat testis and sperm with anti-mouse sp56 monoclonal antibody by Western blot method.Rat sp56 was localized on rat sperm head by the indirect immunofluorescence method.Rat sp56 immunoreactivity was detected from the early pachytene spermatocytes and throughout the spermatogenesis.Its cloning will further our understanding of the mechanism of the sperm-egg recognition and binding. 相似文献
