The quality of plant oil is determined by its component fatty acids. Relatively high levels of linolenic acid reduce the oxidative stability of the oil, and high levels of erucic acid in the diet have been associated with health problems. Thus, oilseed Brassica napus cultivars with low linolenic and low erucic acid contents are highly desirable for edible oil production. In order to identify genes controlling the levels of erucic and linolenic acids, we analyzed the oil composition of 99 F1-derived doubled haploid lines from a cross between cv Major (high levels of erucic and linolenic acids) and cv Stellar (low levels of both fatty acids). A molecular marker linkage map of 199 loci for this population was used to identify quantitative trait loci (QTL) controlling oil composition. We identified two regions that accounted for nearly all of the phenotypic variation in erucic acid concentration and one region that accounted for 47% of the variation in linolenic acid concentration. The QTL associated with linolenic acid concentration mapped near a RFLP locus detected by a cDNA clone encoding an omega-3 desaturase, suggesting that the low linolenic acid content of Stellar may be due to a mutation in this gene.  相似文献

Summary Leaves of the in vitro grown potato cultivars Bintje, Berolina, Desiree, and Russet Burbank were wounded and co-cultivated with Agrobacterium strains having chimeric bar and nptII genes on a disarmed T-DNA. Each leaf from these cultivars formed numerous calli on kanamycin-containing medium, and almost all calli regenerated shoots. For Russet Burbank, it was necessary to include AgNO3 in the medium to obtain efficient shoot regeneration. The transformed plants have one to a few copies of the T-DNA, show NPT-II and PAT activities, and are resistant to high doses of the commercial preparation of phospinotricin (glufosinate). Almost no somaclonal variation was detected in trans-genic plants.  相似文献

Summary In order to localize a gene for resistance to Barley Yellow Mosaic Virus (BaYMV) of German resistant varieties, cvs. Ogra and Sonate were crossed to a complete trisomic (2n=2x+1=15) set of Shin Ebisu 16. Tests for resistance in F2 strongly support the conclusion that the German gene for resistance to BaYMV is located on barley chromosome 3.  相似文献

The inheritance of host plant resistance and its effect on the relative infection efficiency for leaf blast was studied in the crosses IR36/CO39 (partially resistant × highly susceptible) and IR36/IR64 (both partially resistant). On the natural scale, gene action appeared multiplicative. After log transformation, additive effects described most of the genetic variation in the cross IR36/CO39, while additive and dominance effects were about equal in magnitude in the cross IR36/IR64. Dominance was towards increased resistance. No transgressive segregation occurred in the cross IR36/CO39. The number of genes that reduce lesion number was estimated to be zero in CO39 and five or more in IR36. The cross IR36/IR64 showed transgressive segregation in both directions, and IR36 and IR64 each contain at least one gene that is not present in the other cultivar. The heritabilities (narrow sense) in the F2 were low (range 0.06–0.16), while narrow sense heritabilities based on F3 lines were much higher (range 0.41–0.68). Lesion numbers in F3 lines were reasonably correlated with those in F5 progenies derived from the same F2 plant (r was±0.6 in both crosses). Partial resistance can be effectively improved by selecting the most resistant plants from the most resistant F3 lines.  相似文献

Summary Reciprocal crosses were made between cultivated wheat (Triticum turgidum var. durum) and a high-protein line of wild tetraploid wheat (T. turgidum var. dicoccoides). F1 grains (on maternal spikes) were very similar to the selfed grains on the maternal parent in protein percentage, weight and protein content. These traits were also analyzed in F3 grains developed on F2 spikes of segregating populations derived from reciprocal crosses between the same cultivated parent and another high-protein line of var. dicoccoides. No significant differences in the mean values of these traits were found between the reciprocal crosses, indicating no cytoplasmic effect. It has been concluded that these grain characteristics are largely determined by the maternal plant.Recipient of Sir Charles Clore Postdoctoral FellowshipThe Marshall and Edith Korshak Professor of Plant Cytogenetics  相似文献

Restriction fragment analysis was used to examine the inheritance of lentil mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) in F1 and F5 progeny from intrasubspecific (Lens culinaris ssp. culinaris) crosses and in F1 progeny from intersubspecific (Lens culinaris ssp. orientalis x L. culinaris ssp. culinaris) crosses. Southern blots of digested parental and progeny DNA were hybridized to heterologous maize mtDNA probes specific to coxI and atp6 genes. Two restriction fragment polymorphisms separated L.c. ssp. culinaris Laird and Eston from L.c. ssp. culinaris ILL5588, and one restriction fragment polymorphism distinguished L.c. ssp. culinaris Laird and Eston from L.c. ssp. orientalis LO4. Twelve of 13 f1 progeny and all F5 progeny from the intrasubspecific crosses, and all F1 progeny from intersubspecific crosses had only maternal mtDNA restriction fragments. One f1 plant from an Eston x ILL5588 cross inherited mtDNA fragments from both parents. Nuclear DNA inheritance was biparental in all F1 progeny.NRCC No. 38451  相似文献

Summary The relationship between available methionine concentration and the levels of phaseolin — the major seed storage proteins of the common bean — was studied using three groups of genetic materials: First, the F2 progenies of interspecific crosses between P. vulgaris cultivars and aP. coccineus subsp. coccineus line (cv. Mexican Red Runner) having no detectable phaseolin; second, the F2 progenies and segregating F3 families of crosses between cultivated P. vulgaris lines and a Mexican wild bean accession (PI 325690-3) carrying a gene producing a reduction in phaseolin content; third, two inbred backcross populations: SanilacxBush Blue Lake 240 (population 2) and Sanilacx15R 148 (population 6). Total seed N levels were determined by micro-Kjeldahl, phaseolin levels by rocket immunoelectrophoresis and available methionine levels by the Streptococcus zymogenes bioassay. Our results indicate that in all the genetic materials studied, with the exception of population 6, higher phaseolin levels lead to increased available methionine concentration. Although phaseolin has a low methionine concentration, it is actually a major source of available methionine in common bean seeds, because it represents a large part of total seed nitrogen and because limited differences exist between the methionine concentrations of the different protein fractions. This contrasts with the situation in cereals such as maize, barley and sorghum, where increased levels of the major limiting amino acid (lysine) can be achieved through a decrease in the amounts of the main seed storage protein fraction (prolamines). In population 6, no relationship was observed between available methionine and phaseolin content. Other factors, such as additional methionine-rich polypeptides or the presence of tannins, might obscure the positive relationship between phaseolin and available methionine content in population 6.  相似文献

As the first step in the transfer of barely yellow dwarf virus resistance and salt tolerance from decaploid tall wheatgrass (Thinopyrum ponticum) into hexaploid bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), octoploid intergeneric hybrids (2n = 8x = 56) were synthesized by crossing the tall wheatgrass cultivar Alkar with wheat cvs. Fukuhokomugi (Fuko) and Chinese Spring. (Fuko x Alkar) F1 hybrids were studied in detail. The F1 hybrids were perennial and generally resembled the male wheatgrass parent with regard to morphological features and gliadin profile. Most hybrids were euploid with 56 chromosomes and showed high chromosome pairing. On an average, in 6 hybrids 83.6% of the complement showed chiasmatic association, some between wheat and wheatgrass chromosomes. Such a high homoeologous pairing would be obtained if Ph1, the major homoeologous pairing suppressor in wheat, was somehow inactivated. Some of the Fuko x Alkar hybrids had high pollen fertility (18.5–42.0% with a mean of 31.5%) and high seed fertility (3–29 seeds wtih a mean of 12.3 seeds per spike), offering excellent opportunities for their direct backcrossing onto the wheat parent.  相似文献

Summary Mutants of Arabidopsis thaliana were identified by screening pedigreed M3 seed collections from EMS-treated plants for changes in fatty acid (FA) composition. The FA phenotypes of the most dramatic mutants are as follows: G30 and 1E5 (allelic) lack linolenic acid (183) and are elevated in linoleic acid (182); 4A5 is deficient in 182 and 183 and fourfold increased in oleic acid (181); 9A1 lacks all FAs > C18 and is twofold increased in 181; 1A9 is twofold increased in palmitic acid (160) and decreased by one-half in 181; 2A11 is two-to threefold increased in stearic acid (180) and decreased by one-half in 181. Based on segregation of F2 selfed plants derived from crosses to wild type, all of these phenotypes are the result of single gene mutations.  相似文献

Summary The inheritance of two mutants of flax (Linum usitatissimum), having altered proportions of the C18 polyunsaturated fatty acids, linoleic and linolenic, was examined. Both lines, M1589 and M1722, are homozygous for a single gene mutation which reduces linolenic acid content from 34% to 22% and raises linoleic acid from 15% to 27%. Genetic analysis of crosses involving M1589, M1722 and their parental cultivar Glenelg revealed that these mutations are in different unlinked genes and exhibit additive (codominant) gene action. The symbolsLn1 andLn2 are proposed for the mutated genes in M1589 and M1722, respectively. Recombinant genotypes homozygous for the mutant alleles at both loci are very low in linolenic acid (2%) and high in linoleic acid (48%), with unaltered proportions of other fatty acids. The complete inverse correlation between linoleic and linolenic acids (r=-0.98) indicates that the mutations block the synthesis of linolenic acid at the linoleic desaturation step.  相似文献

Summary Large numbers of highly viable mesophyll protoplasts were isolated from shoot cultures of the scion cv Passe Crassane and the rootstock genotype Old Home of common pear (Pyrus communis L.). Protoplasts were cultured for both genotypes either as liquid layers or as liquid-over-agar cultures, in ammonium-free MS medium with 0.5 M mannitol, 50 mg/l casein enzymatic hydrolysate (CEH), 2.0 mg/l NAA and 1.0 mg/l BAP, plus either 0.5 mg/l IAA (for Old Home) or 2.0 mg/l IAA (for Passe Crassane). Protoplast microcalli, obtained by day 60 (Passe Crassane) or day 80 (Old Home), were transferred for further growth to ammonium-free MS medium with 2.0 mg/l NAA and 1.0 mg/l BAP. Shoot bud regeneration from the protoplastderived callus was first attempted between 100 (Passe Crassane) and 120 (Old Home) days after protoplast isolation. For Passe Crassane, shoot buds were regenerated (day 130) on a half-strength MS medium with 0.1 mg/l IBA, 0.5 mg/l BAP, 50 mg/l CEH and 20 mg/l Ca-panthotenate. For Old Home, shoot but regeneration only occurred 30 days later and on the same medium as above, which was additionally supplemented with double the concentration of the group B vitamins found in the original MS formulation and 0.05 mg/l GA3. Following micropropagation and in vitro rooting of shoots, the plants were transferred to soil following standard procedures. Trueness-to-type of the regenerated plants was assessed by analysing their leaf isozyme banding profiles (for EST, AP, PRX, SOD, ENP, LAP, PGI, AAT, ADH, MDH and PGM) and comparing them to those corresponding to the original shoots that provided the protoplasts. No differences between the mother shoots and the protoclones were observed for any one of the 11 isozyme systems studied.  相似文献

The mechanism for synthesis of monounsaturated fatty acids under aerobic and anaerobic conditions was studied in the facultative anaerobic cyanobacterium, Oscillatoria limnetica. The hexadecenoic acid (C161) of aerobically grown O. limnetica was shown to contain both the 7 (79%) and 9 (21%) isomers, while the octadecenoic (C181) acid was entirely the 9 acid. Incorporation of [2-14C] acetate into the fatty acids under aerobic conditions resulted in synthesis of the 7 and 9 C161 and the 9 C181. Synthesis of unsaturated fatty acids in the presence of DCMU required sulfide. Anaerobic incubations in the presence of DCMU and sulfide (less than 0.003% atmospheric oxygen) resulted in a two-fold increase in monounsaturated fatty acids of both 7 and 9 C161 and 9 and 11 C181. The synthesis of these isomers is characteristic of a bacterialtype, anaerobic pathway.Abbreviations DCMU 3(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea - MFA monounsaturated fatty acid  相似文献

This study was conducted to compare maize quantitative trait loci (QTL) detection for grain yield and yield components in F23 and F67 recombinant inbred (RI) lines from the same population. One hundred and eighty-six F67 RIs from a Mo17×H99 population were grown in a replicated field experiment and analyzed at 101 loci detected by restriction fragment length polymorphisms (RFLPs). Single-factor analysis of variance was conducted for each locus-trait combination to identify QTL. For grain yield, 6 QTL were detected accounting for 22% of the phenotypic variation. A total of 63 QTL were identified for the seven grain yield components with alleles from both parents contributing to increased trait values. Several genetic regions were associated with more than one trait, indicating possible linked and/or pleiotropic effects. In a comparison with 150 F23 lines from the same population, the same genetic regions and parental effects were detected across generations despite being evaluated under diverse environmental conditions. Some of the QTL detected in the F23 seem to be dissected into multiple, linked QTL in the F67 generation, indicating better genetic resolution for QTL detection with RIs. Also, genetic effects at QTL are smaller in the F67 generation for all traits.Abbreviations RFLPs Restriction fragment length polymorphisms - QTL quantitative trait loci - RIs recombinant inbreds Journal Paper no.

The structural organization and overall dimensions of the Escherichia coli F1-ATPase in solutionhas been analyzed by synchroton X-ray scattering. Using an independent ab initio approach,the low-resolution shape of the hydrated enzyme was determined at 3.2 nm resolution. Theshape permitted unequivocal identification of the volume occupied by the 3 3 complex ofthe atomic model of the ECF1-ATPase. The position of the ^ and subunits were found byinteractive fitting of the solution scattering data and by cross-linking studies. Laser-inducedcovalent incorporation of 2-azido-ATP established a direct relationship between nucleotidebinding affinity and the different interactions between the stalk subunits and with the threecatalytic subunits () of the F1-ATPase. Mutants of the ECF1-ATPase with the introductionof Trp-for-Tyr replacement in the catalytic site of the complex made it possible to monitorthe activated state for ATP synthesis (ATP conformation) in which the and subunits arein close proximity to the subunits and the ADP conformation, with the stalk subunits arelinked to the subunit.  相似文献

Summary Meiotic pairing in Triticum turgidum cv. Ma (4x) with a mean chiasmata frequency of 27.16 per cell was compared with chiasmata frequencies in its hybrids with several triticale strains, Chinese Spring wheat and its addition lines for Imperial rye chromosomes 4R and 6R. In hybrids between Ma and x Triticosecale cv. Rosner the chiasmata frequency was marginally reduced by an average of 1.25%, by 8.8% in hybrids with x Triticosecale cv. DRIRA HH and by 6.7% with DRIRA EE (lacking 90% telomeric heterochromatin from chromosome arm 7RL). In pentaploid hybrids between Ma and T. aestivum cv. Chinese Spring the reduction was an average of 10.30%, while addition lines with rye chromosome 6R reduced chiasmata frequencies by an average of 7.4% and rye addition line for 4R showed the greatest depression in chiasmata frequency in hybrids by a 25.04% reduction. An interchange difference involving long chromosome segments was observed between Ma and Rosner.Contribution No. 819 Ottawa Research Station  相似文献

Genetic linkage maps for two apple cultivars were constructed using AFLP and SSR markers and the pseudo-testcross mapping strategy. The F1-mapping population was produced by crossing the cultivar Braeburn to the cultivar Telamon and consisted of 257 individuals. Out of the 182 AFLP primer combinations screened, a total of 48 were selected. Using these, 463 AFLP markers segregating 1:1 in the progeny were identified, of which 231 were heterozygous in Telamon and 232 in Braeburn. Eighty-five AFLP markers present in both cultivars (3:1 segregation) were scored in the whole mapping population. Twenty-one SSR primer pairs were tested, which clearly screened 23 loci (some multi-locus markers). This resulted in the identification of 3 loci heterozygous only in Telamon (1:2:1), 5 loci heterozygous only in Braeburn (1:2:1) and 15 loci which were heterozygous in both cultivars (1:1:1:1). Two linkage maps were produced. The Telamon map comprised 259 markers (242 AFLPs and 17 SSRs) divided into 17 linkage groups. The total map length was 1039 cM with a marker density of 4.0 cM. At = 0.05, 8.9% of the mapped loci showed distorted segregation. The Braeburn map consisted of 264 markers (245 AFLPs and 19 SSRs) mapped on 17 linkage groups and spanning 1245 cM. The average distance between two markers was 4.7 cM and segregation distortion was observed for 18.6% of the mapped markers ( = 0.05). Fourty-six markers common to both maps (32 AFLPs and 14 SSRs) allowed the identification of 16 homologous linkage groups. The seventeenth pair of homologous linkage groups from Telamon and Braeburn was identified by 2 SSR markers which were in common to the genetic linkage maps of Fiesta and Discovery, two other apple cultivars.  相似文献

The magnitude of the proton motive force (p) and its constituents, the electrical () and chemical potential (-ZpH), were established for chemostat cultures of a protease-producing, relaxed (rel ) variant and a not protease-producing, stringent (rel +) variant of an industrial strain ofBacillus licheniformis (respectively referred to as the A- and the B-type). For both types, an inverse relation of p with the specific growth rate was found. The calculated intracellular pH (pHin) was not constant but inversely related to . This change in pHin might be related to regulatory functions of metabolism but a regulatory role for pHin itself could not be envisaged. Measurement of the adenylate energy charge (EC) showed a direct relation with for glucose-limited chemostat cultures; in nitrogen-limited chemostat cultures, the EC showed an approximately constant value at low and an increased value at higher . For both limitations, the ATP/ADP ratio was directly related to .The phosphorylation potential (G'p) was invariant with . From the values for G'p and p, a variable H+/ATP-stoichiometry was inferred: H+/ATP=1.83+0.52µ, so that at a given H+/O-ratio of four (4), the apparent P/O-ratio (inferred from regression analysis) showed a decline of 2.16 to 1.87 for =0 to max (we discuss how more than half of this decline will be independent of any change in internal cell-volume). We propose that the constancy of G'p and the decrease in the efficiency of energy-conservation (P/O-value) with increasing are a way in which the cells try to cope with an apparent less than perfect coordination between anabolism and catabolism to keep up the highest possible with a minimum loss of growth-efficiency. Protease production in nitrogen-limited cultures as compared to glucose-limited cultures, and the difference between the A- and B-type, could not be explained by a different energy-status of the cells.Abbreviations CCCP carbonylcyanide-p-trichloromethoxyphenylhydrazone - DW dry weight of biomass - F Faraday's constant, 96.6 J/(mV × mol) - Fo chemostat outflow-rate (ml/h) - FCCP carbonylcyanide-p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone - G'p phosphorylation potential, the Gibbs energy change for ATP-synthesis from ADP and Pi - G'0p standard Gibbs energy change at specified conditions - H+/ATP number of protons translocated through - ATP synthase in synthesis of one ATP - H+/O protons translocated during transfer of 2 electrons from substrate to oxygen - specific growth rate (1/h) - H+ transmembrane electrochemical proton potential, J/mol - Mb molar weight (147.6 g/mol) of bacteria with general cell formula C6.0H10.8O3.0N1.2 - pHout,in extracellular, intracellular pH - Pi (intracellular) inorganic phosphate - p proton motive force, mV - pH transmembrane pH-difference - transmembrane electrical potential, mV - P/O number of ADP phosphorylated to ATP upon reduction of one O2– to H2O by two electrons transferred through the electron transfer chain - P/O (H+/O) × (H+/ATP)–1 - P/OF, P/ON P/O with the two electrons donated by resp.

Summary One hundred and twenty-two varieties, lines and wild accessions of Lycopersicon were screened under three different regimes during the autumn/winter season of 1982–83 and 1983–84 for resistance to tomato leaf curl virus (TLCV). L. hirsutum f. glabratum (B6013) and L. hirsutum f. typicum (A1904) proved to be highly resistant to TLCV in all three environments. Various accessions of L. peruvianum were also highly resistant. L. pimpinellifolium (A1921) exhibited no TLCV symptoms within 90 days. Of the cultivated varieties, Acc 99 exhibited the minimim score for susceptibility; AC 142, Collection No. 2, Kalyanpur Angurlata and HS 101 had a low rating for virus incidence. The inheritance of resistance was studied in the interspecific crosses between a TLCV resistant line of L. pimpinellifolium (A1921) and five (HS 101, HS 102, HS 110, Pusa Ruby and Punjab Chhuhara) susceptible cultivars of L. esculentum. Parents, F1, F2 and backcross progenies were artificially inoculated with local strains of TLCV using vector the viruliferious whitefly, Bemisia tabaci (Genn.). Data indicated that the resistance of L. pimpinellifolium (A 1921) is monogenic and incompletely dominant over susceptibility.  相似文献

Summary Most of the population in certain areas of Melanesia have one -globin gene deletion ( thal2). It is thought that the high frequencies of thal2 in this population is due to a selective advantage given by malaria infection to carriers of thal2. We are interested in neighboring Polynesia which, although adjacent to Melanesia, has always been free of malaria due to the absence of the vector anopheles. We studied 60 Polynesian Samoans and 150 Malaysians by restriction endonuclease gene mapping using Eco RI, Bam HI, and Bgl II and hybridization to 32P-labeled -globin gene probe. Seven among the 60 (11.7%) Samoans had triplicated -globin loci type 1, while none had thal2. On digestion with Bgl II the third -globin gene was found in an additional 3.7kb fragment in all seven Samoans with triplicated -globin loci, while digestion with Bam HI produced an abnormal elongated 18.2 kb fragment carrying -globin genes in addition to the normal 14.5 kb fragment. None of the Polynesian Samoans had thal2 or thal1. Only two of the Malaysians had triplicated -globin loci.  相似文献
