Leaf flavonoids of Amborella trichopoda

The leaf flavonoids of Amborella trichopoda were examined and two kaempterol glycosides were detected. Procyanidin was also present. These results are similar to the flavonoid pattern in other families of the Laurales and it is suggested that simple flavonol glycosides are a primitive feature in the order.     

Analysis of the Amborella trichopoda chloroplast genome sequence suggests that amborella is not a basal angiosperm

Phylogenetic analyses based on comparison of a limited number of genes recently suggested that Amborella trichopoda is the most ancient angiosperm. Here we present the complete sequence of the chloroplast genome of this plant. It does not display any of the genes characteristic of chloroplast DNA of the gymnosperm Pinus thunbergii (chlB, chlL, chlN, psaM, and ycf12). The majority of phylogenetic analyses of protein-coding genes of this chloroplast DNA suggests that Amborella is not the basal angiosperm and not even the most basal among dicots.

Karyotype analysis in three species of the genus Chirostoma (Atheriniformes: Atherinidae)

Karyotype analyses of three Chirostoma species, C. estor, C. patzcuaro, and C. jordani from Mexico, are presented. C. estor and C. jordani have both a diploid number of 2N = 48 and a fundamental number of NF = 68, but different karyotype formulae. The co-occurrence of these karyotypes with morphometric and allozymatic primitive features so far reported suggests that the ancestral karyotype of the genus Chirostoma was similar to the one shown by these species. The divergent karyotype of C. patzcuaro (2N = 44 and NF = 44) could be related to its endemism and to the relatively small size of its populations.

核型似近系数的聚类分析方法

本文根据近年来核型分析所积累的大量资料,以及谭远德(1991)提出的似近分析理论,提出了核型似近系数A聚类分析方法,确定了核型计算公式,井应用于lo种淡水鱼核型似近系数聚类分析,获得了与形态分类学非常一致的结果。此外,还提出了染色体带型计算公式,从而使核型公式和校型似近系数从核型的整体结构、染色体形态结构和染色体内部结构等三个层次上,较精确地刻画了物种核型特性和物种间校型的等同性或同源性。以此核型似近系数作为分类依据所获得的物种分类结果,能真实地和客观地反映物种的自然分类模式。

Unequal X Chromosomes in Bradysia Hygida (Diptera:Sciaridae) Females: Karyotype Assembly and Morphometric Analysis

The mitotic chromosomes of Bradysia hygida(Diptera:Sciaridae) neuroblast cells are described together with their morphometric data. Giemsa-stained neuroblast chromosomes from female and male larvae confirm the chromosome number of this species, 2n=8 (XX) and 2n=7 (XO), respectively. The karyotype assembly reveals two metacentric autosomic pairs, the A and B chromosome; a subtelocentric, the C chromosome, the smallest one; and a sexual unequal metacentric pair, X chromosome, in female karyotype and a one sexual metacentric X chromosome in male. The implications of the unequal X chromosome pair are discussed.     

Chromosomes of lemuriformes. II. Chromosome polymorphism in Lemur fulvus collaris (E. Geoffroy 1812).

Two previously unreported diploid numbers, 2N = 50 and 2N = 51, from five individual Lemur fulvus collaris are described. In both chromosome complements, the nombre fondamental is 64. The 2N = 50 complement is composed of 7 pairs of bi-armed chromosomes, 17 pairs of acrocentric chromosomes with small short arms, and acrocentric sex chromosomes. The 2N = 51 complement is identical with these exceptions: Only one member equivalent to bi-armed pair 6 of L.f. collaris (2N = 50) is present, and two extra acrocentrics are found in the 2N = 51 complement. G-banding analyses suggest that these chromosomes are a heteromorphic pair of the Robertsonian type. This conculsion is supported by evidence from studies of meiotic pairing relationships of the three chromosomes and the complements of hybrids resulting from interspecific matings. Comparison of the 2N = 50 and 2N = 51 complements with a published 2N = 48 complement suggests that these new karyotypes do not provide a lineal link between the 2N = 52 and 2N = 48 karyotypes (Rumpler, Y., and R. Albignac 1969 C.R. Soc. Biol., 163: 1989-1992).     

江苏櫓稻核型的初步分析

本文研究了江苏穭稻——一种草型栽培稻(Orysa sativa L.)的核型与染色体带型。结果表明,穭稻的核型有6对中位染色体(K_1,K_3,K_6,K,K(?)和K_(11)),4对亚中位染色体(K_2,K(?)K_0和K(?)),1对亚端位染色体(K_4)和1对随体染色体(K_(10)),在K_3染色体的长臂上有一次缢痕。Giemsa分带处理表明,穭稻染色体带型比较丰富,各条染色体的带型特征明显。本文还讨论了江苏穭稻与普通野生稻和栽培稻在核型及染色体带型上的异同。     

Chromosomes of lemuriformes. I. A chromosome complement of Lepilemur mustelinus (I. Geoffroy 1851)

The diploid chromosome number of two specimens of Lepilemur mustelinus (I. Geoffroy 1851) is 2N = 20. All of the chromosomes, except the Y chromosome, are metacentric or submetacentric; the Y chromosome is acrocentric and is the shortest chromosome in the complement. Satellites on autosomal pair 5 provide marked chromosomes for the animals studied and may be a marked pair for the species.
