传统中药白芍原植物分类鉴定及根形态解剖研究

对我国主产地的白芍(Radix Paeonia alba)原植物10个居群进行调查及标本采集,植物鉴定结果为：川白芍原植物粉红花居群为原变种芍药Paeonia lactiflora Pall,白花居群为芍药变种毛果芍药P.lactiflora var.trichocarpa(Bunge)Stern;毫白芍原植物线条居群和蒲棒居群均为芍药;杭白芍原植物红花、白花、粉红花居群均为毛果芍药;陕西韩城、江苏东海、山东荷泽白芍均为芍药,各居群在花色及形态上有明显而稳定的变异。根横切面解剖结构显示,按木质部的排列方式可将白芍原植物10个居群分为两大类：第一类为有呈两个不相连的扇形中央导管群,并且有狭长、具分枝的从形成层到根中央部分连续排列的木质部,基本上是原植物芍药的植物特征,其中毫白芍线条居群兼有毛果芍药和芍药的特征;第二类为具有不明显的根中央扇形导管束,导管束呈环状围绕中央排列,并且有粗短不分枝的靠近形成层处成群的导管,与原植物毛果芍药的特征基本一致,其中杭白芍红花居群与川白芍白花居群根中央导管群呈现较明显的2个分离扇形排列,类似芍药。白芍原植物的种分类定位与花色无密切关联,但由于性状的稳定,可以考虑作为变种或变型定位。     

扬州芍药栽培品种表型多样性分析

于2015年对扬州大学芍药种质资源圃中170个芍药(Paeonia lactiflora Pall.)栽培品种进行了全面调查,记录和分析了11种性状多样性。结果表明,芍药栽培品种具有丰富的表型多样性,平均多样性指数为1.538,总体上数量性状形态多样性指数大于质量性状。通过主成分分析,筛选出特征值大于1的前5个主成分,贡献率大小依次为花瓣宽度、株高、雄蕊数量、叶色和茎粗。聚类分析结果表明,不同芍药栽培品种间的平均遗传距离约为10.0,其聚类组群结果与芍药的株高有较大的相关性。     

珍稀濒危植物夏蜡梅遗传多样性的ISSR分析

利用ISSR分子标记技术,对濒危植物夏蜡梅10个居群的遗传多样性进行了分析.结果表明:夏蜡梅种的遗传多样性较高,多态位点百分率为73.08%,Shannon指数为0.3097,Nei指数为0.1987;而居群水平的遗传多样性较低,多态位点百分率平均为23.65%,Shannon指数平均为0.1251,Nei指数平均为0.0839.AMOVA分子差异分析显示:居群间遗传分化程度高,57.11%的变异存在于居群间,42.89%存在于居群内,基因分化系数(G_st)为0.5779;居群间的基因流为0.3651.生境的片断化使居群间的基因流受阻,可能是导致居群间高遗传分化和居群水平低遗传多样性的主要原因.10个居群间的平均遗传距离为0.1471.利用UPG-MA法对10个居群进行聚类,结果是天台县内的2个居群、临安市内的8个居群各组成一大类群.     

濒危植物连香树居群的遗传多样性和遗传分化研究

利用ISSR分子标记技术对濒危植物连香树10个居群的遗传多样性和遗传变异进行了分析,结果表明:连香树物种水平遗传多样性较高,多态位点百分率(PPB)达到69.59%,Nei’s基因多样性指数(H)和Shannon信息指数(I)分别为0.231 3和0.351 4;而在居群水平上,多态位点百分率(PPB)为30.61%,Nei’s基因多样性指数(H)和Shannon信息指数(I)分别为0.115 6和0.173 3。遗传变异分析表明,居群间遗传分化程度高,遗传分化系数(GST)为0.500 3,居群间基因流Nm为0.527 3。Mantel检测,居群间的遗传距离和地理距离之间不存在显著的相关性。生境的片断化使居群间的基因流受阻,可能是导致居群间高遗传分化和居群水平低遗传多样性的主要原因。     

孑遗植物水杉的遗传多样性研究

采用随机扩增多态DNA(RAPD)方法对孑遗植物水杉 (Metasequoiaglyptostroboides)的 8个居群 (包括 6个孑遗居群和 2个人工栽培居群 )的 48个个体进行了遗传多样性研究。用 16个随机引物共扩增出清晰谱带 5 7条。孑遗居群平均多态位点百分率为 38.6 %。各居群多态位点百分率差异显著 ( 10 .5 3%～ 33 .33 % ) :湖北利川的小河和桂花 2个居群较高 ,分别是 33 .33%和 31.5 8% ;湖南龙山洛塔居群较低 ,为 10 .5 3 %。人工栽培居群中 ,美国密西根州和湖北武汉 2个居群的多态位点百分率也较低 ,仅分别为 10 .5 3 %和 8.77%。用POPGENE 1.31版软件进行数据处理后结果如下 :孑遗居群的平均Nei’s基因多样性为 0 .130 5 ,Shannon’s遗传多样性信息指数为 0 .192 1,水杉孑遗居群遗传距离与地理距离的相关系数r =0 .2 346 6 (P =73 .2 7% ) ,基因分化系数Gst=0 .10 82 ,表明居群间有一定分化。用UPGMA方法聚类可知 ,2个人工居群与湖北利川居群优先聚类。鉴于目前水杉孑遗居群生境人为破坏严重、遗传多样性较低和原生母树分布分散 ,建议在湖北利川小河和桂花野生水杉最适生境建立水杉遗传多样性保护点 ,将现有的 2 5 0多株原生母树分别采种育苗定植于保护点 ,以达到最大限度地保存现有水杉遗传多样性的目的。     

大王马先蒿云南五个居群遗传变异研究

采用随机扩增多态DNA(RAPD)分子标记方法,对大王马先蒿(PedicularisrexL.)分布在云南中甸、丽江、大理、武定和昆明的5个居群(其中中甸居群有3个亚居群)的遗传多样性和遗传结构进行了研究。结果表明,大王马先蒿居群具有较高的遗传多样性,多态位点百分率P、Shannon表型多样性指数I和Nei的基因多样性指数h分别为82.0%、0.361和0.240,遗传多样性水平与居群的地理分布范围相关;大王马先蒿居群间的遗传变异较高,遗传变异主要发生在居群之间,而不是居群内部;居群间遗传分化系数Gst为0.747,遗传分化明显,居群间基因交流较少。居群间的遗传距离与居群间的相对地理距离具有一定的相关性。对云南西北部中甸居群的3个亚居群的遗传多样性分析表明,居群的遗传多样性水平与海拔高度有一定的相关性。居群间遗传变异较高可能是由于大王马先蒿为短命多年生植物,繁育系统为混交型,且自交占较大比例等原因造成的。     

特有珍稀濒危植物景东报春遗传多样性的ISSR分析(英文)

景东报春(Primula interjacens Chen)是一分布在中国云南中南部的稀有的、分布区狭窄的特有种。该种含2个变种:原变种景东报春(P.interjacens Chen var.interjacens),现存一个居群;和光叶景东报春(P.interjacens Chen var.epilosa C.M.Hu),有2个居群。本文用ISSR分子标记对景东报春现存的3个居群进行了遗传多样性分析。和我们最初的预计相反,尽管居群小、分布区狭窄,景东报春的遗传多样性却很高(在居群水平的多态位点率P=59.75％,基因多样性H_E=0.2368,Hpop=0.3459:在种的水平的多态位点率P=75.47％,遗传多样性H_T=0.3205,总的遗传多样性Hsp=0.4618)。推测异型花和杂交可能是维持高的遗传多样性的原因。Nei的遗传多样性水平(26.13％)和Shannon多样性指数(25.09％)显示居群间存在中度分化。尽管景东报春原变种和变种在形态上有区别,但用非加权配对算数平均法(UPGMA)聚类分析的结果表明,两者并没有明显的遗传分化,可处理为一个单一的分类单元。基于观察到的居群遗传信息,建议采取就地保护和迁地保护的保护措施。

利用SSR分子标记分析秦岭冷杉自然居群的遗传多样性

利用10对SSR引物对濒危植物秦岭冷杉(Abies chensiensis)6个自然居群的120个个体进行了遗传多样性研究,旨在分析秦岭冷杉6个自然居群的遗传多样性、遗传结构及基因流变化.研究结果表明,120个个体在10个位点上共检测到149个等位基因,平均每个位点的等位基因数(A)为14.9,每个位点的有效等位基因数(e)为7.7,每个位点的平均预期杂合度(He)和平均观察杂合度(Ho)分别为0.841和0.243,Shannon多样性指数(Ⅰ)为2.13,自然居群杂合性基因多样度的比率(FsT)为6.7％,居群间的基因流(Nm)为3.45.利用Mantel检测到自然居群的遗传距离与地理距离间无显著相关性(r=0.490 6,P＞0.05).秦岭冷杉自然居群的遗传多样性水平较低,遗传变异主要存在于居群内部.结合研究数据、实地调查及相关资料,推测秦岭冷杉自然居群间基因流较原来增大可能是因为居群间发生了远交衰退.     

芍药组内不同类群间光合特性及叶绿素荧光特性比较

为了比较分析芍药组不同类群光合生理差异以及它们对各自不同光照环境的适应性, 测定了芍药组(Paeonia sect. Paeonia) 4种2变种的光合日变化、光响应曲线、CO₂响应曲线, 以及叶绿素荧光特性。结果显示, 芍药组中不同类群之间光合速率差异明显, 各个种类的“午休”程度不同, 芍药(Paeonia lactiflora )和毛果芍药(P. lactiflora var. trichocarpa)的强光抑制现象没有川赤芍(P. veitchii)、美丽芍药(P. mairei)和窄叶芍药(P. anomala)明显。叶绿素荧光特征能够反映芍药组不同类群光合生理的差异。芍药组内不同类群地理分布的差异能部分从光合生理特征的适应性方面得到解释。     

Screening of crude drug extracts for prolyl endopeptidase inhibitory activity.

Prolyl endopeptidase (PEP, EC 3.4.21.26) is an enzyme to play a role in metabolism of proline-containing neuropeptides, such as vasopressin, substance P and thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH), which were suggested to be involved with learning and memory processes. Then, specific inhibitor of PEP is expected to have antiamnesic effects, and thus we screened forty-six water- and methanol-extracts from crude drugs selected on the basis of traditional Chinese medicine theory, for Flavobacterium prolyl endopeptidase inhibition. Among them, the water-extracts of Rhodiola sacra (IC50, 0.77 microgram/ml) and the methanol-extracts of Lycopodium clavatum (IC50, 1.3 micrograms/ml), Paeonia lactiflora var. trichocarpa (IC50, 5.7 micrograms/ml), Paeonia veitchii (IC50, 2.4 micrograms/ml) and Rhodiola sacra (IC50, 0.67 microgram/ml) showed strong inhibitory activity. In addition, we also examined the PEP inhibitory activity of eleven compounds from Salvia deserta, and found that in addition to a catechol group alpha-hydroxy-para-quinone group may be related to the PEP inhibition.     

芍药花粉活力和柱头可授性的研究

用TTC法测定了芍药花粉的活力和寿命,用联苯胺—过氧化氢法测定了其柱头的可授期。结果表明,栽培芍药单瓣花植株的花粉活力和重瓣花植株的花粉活力在开花初期(1～2d)无明显差别,但重瓣花植株的花粉活力比单瓣花植株的花粉活力下降快;通常情况下,花粉寿命约为7d。栽培品种的柱头有个体差异,单瓣花植株有的开花后2h即可分泌粘液,而重瓣花植株的柱头在开花后,有的一直不分泌粘液,有的在开花后两天才分泌粘液;单瓣花植株的柱头可授性比重瓣花植株的强,一般分别在开花后6d和3d之内具可授性。移栽的野生芍药植株的花粉活力比栽培品种下降的慢,其寿命也较长,一般为15d;柱头的可授性和粘液分泌比栽培植株强。     

Analysis of the formation of flower shapes in wild species and cultivars of tree peony using the MADS-box subfamily gene

Tree peony (Paeonia suffricotisa) cultivars have a unique character compared with wild species; the stamen petalody results in increased whorls of petals and generates different flower forms, which are one of the most important traits for cultivar classification. In order to investigate how petaloid stamens are formed, we obtained the coding sequence (666 bp) and genomic DNA sequence of the PsTM6 genes (belongs to B subfamily of MADS-box gene family) from 23 tree peony samples, Five introns and six exons consisted of the genomic DNA sequence. The analysis of cis-acting regulatory elements in the third and fourth intron indicated that they were highly conserved in all samples. Partial putative amino acids were analyzed and the results suggested that functional differentiation of PsTM6 paralogs apparently affected stamen petalody and flower shape formation due to due to amino acid substitution caused by differences in polarity and electronic charge. Sliding window analysis indicated that the different regions of PsTM6 were subjected to different selection forces, especially in the K domain. This is the first attempt to investigate genetic control of the stamen petalody based on the PsTM6 sequence. This will provide a basis for understanding the evolution of PsTM6 and its the function of in determining stamen morphology of tree peony.     

一种新型矮牵牛花发育突变体的研究

报道了新发现的一种矮牵牛(Petunia hybrida L.)花发育突变体,命名为efficient(eff),并对这一突变体进行了形态学和遗传学分析。eff突变体主要表现为雌蕊心皮数目的增加和雄蕊上长出花瓣状结构,同时,雄蕊、花瓣和萼片数亦有增多,但营养器官无变化。心皮数目的增加导致雌蕊柱头和子房体积的显著增大,并形成较大的果实。雄蕊上花瓣的形成对花粉的产生无明显影响。扫描电镜观察发现,eff突变体在花器官原基形成时发生了相应数目的增加及特征的变化。遗传学分析表明,突变的表现型符合孟德尔单基因遗传规律。     

Floral variation in the generalist perennial herb Paeonia broteroi (Paeoniaceae): differences between regions with different pollinators and herbivores

This paper investigates the differences in floral phenotype in Paeonia broteroi (Paeoniaceae) in four populations at two distant mountainous regions in southern Spain. Paeonia broteroi flowers exhibit traits of a highly generalized pollination system, but previous studies have revealed that not all flower visitors are effective at pollen delivery. Plants differed between regions in the number of flowers per plant, petal size, number of stamens per flower, and ovules per carpel. Differences between regions could not be attributable to differences in the size structure of the plants. Flower visitors in the two regions differed in assemblage and body size at all the spatiotemporal scales. Larger visitors were more effective as pollinators in the region with the largest and more rewarding (as measured by the number of stamens) flowers, suggesting that pollinators may create opportunities for selection of certain floral traits. In contrast, the two regions did not differ in the probability of damage by herbivores, which did not select flowers based on any of the measured traits, nor affected maternal fecundity. Despite the differences in flower phenotype, potential maternal fecundity, and pollinator effectiveness, plants did not differ between regions in seed production. The role of pollinators as determinants of the differences between regions in floral phenotype, through male and female reproductive success, is discussed. Also, alternative explanations to divergence are addressed, with special reference to the patterns of resource allocation between sexual functions and genetic drift.     

Molecular phylogenetic evidence for the origin of a diploid hybrid of Paeonia (Paeoniaceae)

There is growing evidence that hybridization not only by means of allopolyploidy but also at the homoploidy level was a major driving force of plant diversification. While allopolyploidy is known to be a common mode of speciation in Paeonia (Paeoniaceae), hybrid speciation at the diploid level needs further evaluation. Paeonia anomala was previously considered to be an interspecific hybrid but with an unknown ploidy level. In this study P. anomala is identified as a diploid (2n = 10). With increased sampling of populations and molecular markers, we showed that P. anomala is a homoploid hybrid that originated from a cross between P. veitchii and P. lactiflora. Five populations of P. anomala were sequenced for the following molecular markers: the matK gene and two intergenic spacers, psbA-trnH and rps16-trnQ, of the chloroplast genome; the internal transcribed spacers (ITS) of nuclear ribosomal DNA; and three low-copy nuclear genes, Adh1, Adh2, and Gpat. The populations of P. anomala were grouped together with P. veitchii on the ITS and Gpat phylogenies but with P. lactiflora on the chloroplast phylogeny. Sequence polymorphism was found at the Adh1 and Adh2 loci within individuals of P. anomala. These polymorphic sequences were grouped with P. veitchii and P. lactiflora, respectively. Phenetic analysis indicated that P. anomala is morphologically similar to P. veitchii. Phenotypic evolution resulting from the combination of two diverged genomes might have occurred primarily at the physiological level and allowed P. anomala to adapt to geographic regions different from those of its parents.     

芍药品种的数量分类研究

将数量分类方法应用于芍药品种的分类。选取了５６个性状,对６０个品种进行烽量分类,结果表明,由于组成花朵的单花数量不同,芍药品种首先分成了单花类和台阁花类两大类,有２朵花乃至数朵花叠合构成台阁花类。由于花瓣来源不同,各类中的芍药品种又分成了两个亚类;以花瓣自然增多为主形成的千层亚类和以雄蕊瓣化为主形成的楼子亚类,最后由于花部基本结构的差异及重瓣程度不同将艾药品咱分成了１４个花型。对芍药品种的因子分析
