病原激发子对番茄阴离子过氧化物酶表达与反应性氧迸发的诱导

采用Ｎｏｒｔｈｅｒｎ印迹法和鲁米诺化学发光示分析抗性的,近等位基因的敏感番茄细胞株阴离子过氧化物酶基因的转录和细胞反应性氧变化,发现病原真菌的激发子和外源Ｈ２Ｏ２均能促进抗性番茄细胞中阴离子过氧化物酶转录。激发子还能刺激抗性细胞中反应性氧水平暂时急剧升高。敏感番茄细胞对激发子或Ｈ２Ｏ２没有响应。Ｃａ＾２＋和磷脂酶Ｃ的抑制剂硫酸新霉素分别促进和抑制激发子诱导下抗性细胞反应性氧增加。     

Verticillium albo－atrum激发子诱导的番茄组织培养细胞的反应性氧迸发

从对Ｖｅｒｔｉｃｉｌｌｉｕｍａｌｂｏ－ａｔｒｕｍ感抗性不同的两株近等位基因番茄获得细胞悬浮培养物Ｓ－ＧＣＲ２６和Ｒ－ＧＣＲ２１８。用．ａｌｂｏ－ａｔｒｕｍ激发子处理后,敏感性的Ｓ－ＧＣＲ２６未表现出明显的反应性氧改变。抗性的Ｒ－ＧＣＲ２１８则响应以反应性氧迸发。反应性氧迸发中的细胞,其反应性氧累积量与激发子浓度的关系呈近Ｓ形。悬浮介质、某些无机离子、培养物的生长状况和培养日龄等因素均影响细胞对激发子的反应性氧迸发响应。

南方根结线虫对不同砧木嫁接番茄苗活性氧清除系统的影响

采用盆栽人工接种方法,对番茄嫁接苗进行了抗性评价,研究了番茄嫁接苗叶片中抗氧化酶活性和活性氧代谢的动态变化。结果表明,接种南方根结线虫(J2)后,砧木嫁接苗表现为高抗,自根嫁接苗为高感。通过嫁接换根,与自根嫁接苗相比,砧木嫁接苗明显提高了接穗叶片的超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(APX)活性,降低了超氧阴离子(O.2-)产生速率以及过氧化氢(H2O2)和丙二醛(MDA)含量。表明番茄植株体内的活性氧水平和抗氧化酶活性的高低与其抗根结线虫的能力密切相关,较低的活性氧水平和较高的抗氧化酶活性有利于减轻对膜系统的伤害,提高番茄植株的抗根结线虫能力。     

质膜NADPH氧化酶的活化与H2O2的产生介导内源激发子诱导人参悬浮细胞中PAL活性的提高与人参皂甙的积累

利用纤维素酶降解人参(Panax ginseng C．A．Meyer)悬浮细胞的细胞壁制备了内源激发子(CDW)。CDW体外诱导了游离人参细胞质膜NADPH氧化酶的活性,激发了活体人参悬浮细胞产生H2O2。CDW还可以诱导提高苯丙氨酸解氨酶(PAL)活性,促进人参鲨烯环氧酶基因(sqe)的转录与人参皂甙的积累。NADPH氧化酶的抑制剂不仅可以抑制CDW体外诱导的质膜NADPH活性而且还可以抑制CDW诱导人参细胞产生H2O2。进而,这些抑制剂还可以抑制CDW诱导PAL活性的提高,以及sqe的转录与人参皂甙的合成。过氧化氢酶与H2O2的粹灭剂也可以抑制CDW激发产生的这些诱导效应。上述结果表明CDW激发质膜NADPH氧化酶的活化与H2O2的产生在介导CDW诱导人参细胞抗性反应中,包括PAL活性的提高与人参皂甙的积累,起了重要的信号转导作用。

过表达LeNLP4转录因子提高番茄抗低温胁迫能力

NAC（NAM-ATAF1,2-CUC2）转录因子在植物胁迫响应中起重要作用。为了探讨三舭丹基因在番茄抗低温胁迫中的功能,分离了番茄LeNLP4转录因子基因,并获得转正义LeNLP4基因番茄植株。荧光定量PCR分析表明,LeNLP4的表达受低温诱导。与野生型植株相比,在4℃胁迫下转基因植株具有较高的生长量和光系统II（PSH）最大光化学效率（Fv／Fm）、过氧化氢（H2O2）和超氧阴离子（O2-）清除速率、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（APX）和超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）活性,以及较低的丙二醛（MDA）含量和相对电导率（REC）。过表达株系中SICBF1的表达高于野生型。上述结果表明,LeNLP4的过表达提高了转基因番茄抗低温胁迫能力。     

猪苓菌丝细胞活性氧的产生及其种类

用液体发酵的蜜环菌菌丝、菌丝细胞壁及发酵液作为激发子,分别处理猪苓菌丝,均可诱导猪苓菌丝活性氧的产生。活性氧产生量与激发子浓度具相关性。超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）、过氧化氢酶(CAT)、甘露醇均可在一定程度上抑制活性氧的产生,证明活性氧种类包括过氧化氢（H2O2）、羟基自由基（·OH）和超氧根阴离子(O·－2)。Diphenylene iodonium (DPI)能削弱激发子对活性氧的诱导,表明O·－2来源于NADPH氧化酶。     

H2O2参与棉疫病菌90 kD蛋白激发子诱导的烟草过敏反应和系统获得抗性

野生型烟草Bel-W3叶片经棉疫病菌90kD蛋白激发子处理后,处理叶及其上位叶在24h内均发生2次氧化迸发产生H2O2,且第二次H2O2进发高峰期同时出现,均出现在第12小时,处理部位细胞死亡高峰期比第二次H2O2迸发高峰期滞后8h。引起过敏反应剂量的激发子诱发反义抑制抗坏血酸过氧化物酶anti-APX烟草的过敏性坏死枯斑比野生型的大而且出现得早;不能诱发野生型烟草HR的剂量可以诱导anti-APX烟草发生HR。经激发子处理后anti-APX烟草对烟草疫霉(Phytophtora nicotianae)和TMV产生的诱导抗性比其野生型高。上述结果表明,H2O2可能是一种重要的信号分子,在棉疫病菌90kD蛋白激发子诱发烟草的HR和SAR中具有重要作用,但可能不是一种可以系统移动的信号分子。     

夜间低温胁迫对番茄叶片活性氧代谢及AsA-GSH循环的影响

以番茄品种‘辽园多丽’为试材,利用人工气候室模拟设施生产中的夜间低温胁迫环境,研究9℃和6℃夜低温对番茄叶片活性氧代谢和AsA-GSH循环的影响。结果显示:9℃和6℃夜间低温胁迫3～9d可诱导番茄叶片中超氧阴离子(O2.-)产生速率、过氧化氢(H2O2)和丙二醛(MDA)含量上升;抑制过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)的活性,增加超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和AsA-GSH循环中抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(APX)、脱氢抗坏血酸还原酶(DHAR)、谷胱甘肽还原酶(GR)的活性,并提高还原型抗坏血酸(AsA)、还原型谷胱甘肽(GSH)、氧化型谷胱甘肽(GSSG)的含量。研究表明,在夜间低温胁迫过程中,增加的番茄叶片中SOD活性和AsA-GSH循环清除活性氧的能力并未与氧还原的速率一致,从而导致番茄叶片中活性氧的累积,使细胞膜系统受到一定破坏,在6℃处理的植物中尤为明显。     

Recent advances in the study of Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus replication and pathogenesis

It has now been over twenty years since a novel herpesviral genome was identified in Kaposi's sarcoma biopsies. Since then, the cumulative research effort by molecular biologists, virologists, clinicians, and epidemiologists alike has led to the extensive characterization of this tumor virus, Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus(KSHV; also known as human herpesvirus 8(HHV-8)), and its associated diseases. Here we review the current knowledge of KSHV biology and pathogenesis, with a particular emphasis on new and exciting advances in the field of epigenetics. We also discuss the development and practicality of various cell culture and animal model systems to study KSHV replication and pathogenesis.     

The structure, reproduction and taxonomy of Vidalia and Osmundaria (Rhodophyta, Rhodomelaceae)

Comprises species occurring mostly in subtidal habitats in tropical, subtropical and warm-temperate areas of the world. An analysis of the type species, V. spiralis (Sonder) Lamouroux ex J. Agardh, a species from Australia, establishes basic characters for distinguishing species in the genus. These characters are (1) branching patterns of thalli, (2) flat blades that may be spiralled on their axis, (3) width of the blade, (4) primary or secondary derivation of sterile and fertile branchlets and (5) position of sterile and fertile branchlets on the thalli. Application of the latter two characters provides an important basic method for separation of species into three major groups. Osmundaria , a genus known only in southern Australia, was studied in relation to Vidalia , and its separation from the Vidalia assemblage is not accepted. Species of Vidalia therefore are transferred to the older genus name, Osmundaria. Two new species, Osmundaria papenfussii and Osmundaria oliveae are described from Natal. Confusion in the usage of the epithet, Vidalia fimbriala Brown ex Turner has been clarified, and Vidalia gregaria Falkenberg, described as an epiphyte on Osmundaria pro/ifera Lamouroux, is revealed to be young branches of the host, Osmundaria prolifera.     

New or rare chromosome counts in Artemisia L. (Asteraceae, Anthemideae) and related genera from Kazakhstan

Fifteen chromosome counts of six Artemisia taxa and one species of each of the genera Brachanthemum, Hippolytia, Kaschgaria, Lepidolopsis and Turaniphytum are reported from Kazakhstan. Three of them are new reports, two are not consistent with previous counts and the remainder are confirmations of very scarce (one to four) earlier records. All the populations studied have the same basic chromosome number, x = 9, with ploidy levels ranging from 2x to 6x. Some correlations between ploidy level, morphological characters and distribution are noted.

Selection with two alleles and complete dominance

For a plant selection model with frequency-independent viabilities, fertilities and selfing rates, it is shown that apart from global fixation, for certain parameter combinations a protected polymorphism and facultative fixation (either allele may become fixed according to initial frequencies) may both occur. Facultative fixation requires different selling rates for the dominant and recessive type. Protection of the polymorphism requires resource allocation for male and female function. In this connection the problem of purely genetically caused population extinction is discussed.
For general frequency dependence and regular segregation, the chances for establishment of a completely recessive gene are compared to those of a completely dominant gene. It is proven that the process of establishment of the recessive gene, despite a fitness advantage, may be considerably endangered by drift effects if random mating prevails. The recessive gene may reach the same effectivity in establishment as a dominant gene, only if the recessive homozygote mates exclusively with its own type during the period of establishment.
