An efficient and reliable micropropagation system for Persian clover (Trifolium resupinatum L.) was developed using different explants and media. Node, hypocotyl and cotyledonary node explants were cultured on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with combinations of either 6-benzyladenine (BA) and indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) or BA, Kinetin (KIN) and IBA. Direct multiple shoots developed within 6weeks in all explants in most media tested. The best shoot multiplication capacity was obtained from cotyledonary node explants on MS medium containing 7.1M BA and 1M IBA or 14.1M BA and 1M IBA. Elongated shoots were rooted on either MS medium alone or combination with different concentrations of indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and -naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA). High rooting was achieved in half strength MS medium containing 8M IBA.  相似文献

Growth rate estimates () of phytoplankton populations that were sampled from nitrogen-limited continuous cultures and then incubated for short durations in batch culture with added14C-HCO3 were significantly different than steady-state growth rates () for 3 of 5 marine phytoplankton species. Two diatoms,Thalassiosira weissflogii andChaetoceros simplex, displayed virtually identical growth rates (=) over a wide range of, whereas for a third diatom,Phaeodactylum tricornutum, was overestimated by an average of 40% compared to. In contrast, was underestimated by the14C technique for the two remaining species: up to 40% at a steady-state of 1.0 day–1 for the chlorophyteDunaliella tertiolecta and up to 100% at of 1.4 day–1 for the haptophytePavlova lutheri. For the latter two species the divergence between and appeared to increase with increasing steady-state. A simple model of labeled and total carbon flow between the aqueous phase and cellular biomass was constructed to demonstrate that respiration was negligible when=, but was significant when>. In the cases in which<, a rapid physiological alteration presumably took place once the steady state was disturbed and cells were placed in the incubation chambers, which perhaps was related to the nutritional state of the cultures at the time of sampling. Questions thus are raised regarding our ability to measure accurately primary productivity from shipboard experiments with confined samples of phytoplankton from nutrient-impoverished waters that probably are less hardy than the laboratory cultures used in these studies.  相似文献

Development of an L6 myoblast in vitro model of moniliformin toxicosis   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
L6 myoblasts were used as an in vitro model to investigate the role of moniliformin and its interaction with monensin in turkey knockdown syndrome and sudden death syndromes in poultry. Cell viability and microscopic and ultrastructural alterations noted in L6 myoblasts cultured in the presence of moniliformin (0.0–0.3 g/l) were compared to those observed in parallel cultures also containing one of the following compounds: selenium (0–0.004 ng/l), thiamine (0–0.3 g/l), or pyruvate (0–0.46 g/l). Marked dilation of the RER, membranous whorls, glycogen deposition, membrane-bound cytoplasmic inclusions and necrosis were observed in myoblasts exposed to 0.03/2-0.30 g moniliformin/l medium. Supplementation of medium with thiamine and pyruvate, or selenium, provided significant protection to cells exposed to 0.0–0.3 g/l or 0.0–0.15 g moniliformin/l, respectively. Dose-dependent differences in protein and ATP production were not detected. Myoblasts grown in medium containing 0–0.15 g moniliformin/l and 7.5–50.0 M A23187, beauvericin or monensin had degrees of cytotoxicity similar to parallel cultures receiving only an ionophore. L6 myoblasts were a useful model of moniliformin toxicosis. The findings of this study suggest cytotoxicity due to moniliformin in L6 myoblasts may be due in part to oxidative damage and altered pyruvate metabolism, and that moniliformin does not predispose myoblasts to ionophore toxicosis. This study supports the results of in vivo investigations in poultry that moniliformin and monensin do not act synergistically to induce knockdown or monensin toxicosis.  相似文献

Summary Eimeria cyclopei n.sp. is described from the silky anteater, Cyclopes didactylus, from Pará State, north Brazil. Undifferentiated oocysts, passed in the faeces, complete sporulation in seven days at 26 to 28°C. Oocysts are ellipsoidal to sub-spherical, with a mean size of 28.1 × 23.6 m: the wall is 1.5 to 2.0 m thick, apparently with an outer thin, colourless membrane and two inner, thicker, striated and yellowish layers. There is no micropyle, oocyst residuum or polar body. The mean measurements of sporocysts are 19.0 × 9.0 m, and they are slightly asymmetrical, elongate pear-shape, with a plug-shaped Steida body projecting beyond the end of the sporocyst. Sporozoites are as long as or longer than the sporocysts: The sporocyst residuum is scattered between sporozoites in younger specimens and becomes condensed into rounded mass in older ones. The endogenous stages occur in the epithelial cells of the ileum, on the lumenal side of the host-cell nucleus. Uninucleate meront, microgamont and macrogamont precursors are recognizable morphologically. Mature meronts are 20.0 × 15.7 m some produce 12 to 20 merozoites which are 8.7 × 2.0 m, and others 10 to 26 merozoites which are 11.4 × 2.0 to 15.0 × 3.0 m. Mature microgamonts which are 27.5 × 24.1 m, produce from 150 to 170 microgametes of 7.1 × 1.0 m: microgametes have two flagella of unequal length. Mature macrogamonts are 28.4 × 24.5 m Eimeria choloepi n.sp. is recorded from the two-toed sloth, Choloepus didactylus, from the same area of Brazil. Undifferentiated oocysts, passed in the faeces, complete sporulation in 23 days at 26 to 28°C. Oocysts with a mean size of 23.0 × 20.3 m, have a wall 2.0 to 2.5 m thick which is composed of two thick, yellowish and striated outer layers and a delicate, colourless inner one. There is no micropyle, oocyst residuum or polar granule. Mature sporocysts with a mean size of 11.3 × 7.1 m, are ellipsoidal to egg-shaped and have a poorly developed Steida body. The sporocyst residuum is composed of a small number of large globules: The sporozoites are longer than the sporocyst and strongly recurved. The endogenous stages occur in epithelial cells of the ileum, on the lumenal side of the host-cell nucleus. Dimorphic meronts produce 8 to 18 merozoites which are either 13.0 × 2.0 m or 13.0 × 3.0 m. Microgamonts produce 50 to 80 microgametes of 8.0 × 1.0 m. Mature macrogamonts are 18.3 × 17.9 m. ac]19820212  相似文献

Shoot organogenesis and plant establishment has been achieved for Phellodendron amurense Rupr. from excised leaf explants. Young leaf explants were collected from in vitro established shoot cultures and used for the induction of direct shoot regeneration, callus and subsequent differentiation into shoots on MS medium. Direct shoot regeneration was achieved by culturing 1 cm2 sections of about 10-day-old leaves on MS medium enriched with 4.4 M BAP and 1.0 M NAA after 4 weeks of culture. The leaf explants produced callus from their cut margins within 3 weeks of incubation on medium supplemented with 2.0 M TDZ and 4.0 M 2,4-D or 4.0 M NAA. The maximum number of adventitious shoots was regenerated from the leaf-derived callus within 4 weeks of culture on MS medium containing 1.5 M BAP and 1.0 M NAA. The highest rate of shoot multiplication was achieved at the third subculture, and more than 65 shoots were produced per callus clump. For rooting, the in vitro proliferated and elongated shoots were excised into 2–4 cm long microcuttings, which were planted individually on a root-induction MS medium containing 2.0 M IBA. Within 3 weeks of transfer to the rooting medium, all the cultured microcuttings produced 2–6 roots. The in vitro regenerated plantlets were transferred to Kanuma soil, and the survival rate ex vitro was 90%.  相似文献

The antimicrobial activity of amphotericin B, 5-fluorocytosine, nystatin, clotrimazole and miconazole were compared in vitro against 244 strains of yeasts that had been isolated from clinical specimens. The yeasts used in this study included 20 species of Candida, Cryptococcus, Saccharomyces Geotrichum, Rhodotorula, Torulopsis and Trichosporon. The majority of the strains (78%) had an MIC of 0.5 g/ml for amphotericin B, 81% an MIC of 1 g/ml for 5-fluorocytosine, 99% 8 g/ml for nystatin, 91%, 8.0 g/ml for clotrimazole and 98% had an MIC of 4.0 for miconazole. Of the anti-fungal agents tested, 5-fluorocytosine and nystatin were found to have the greatest antifungal activity.  相似文献

Summary The total pigment and astaxanthin content ofPhaffia rhodozyma increased with increasing concentrations -pinene up to 500 l -pinene/l. Above this concentration the total pigment and astaxanthin content as well as the biomass production decreased. The addition of 500 l -pinene/l increased the total pigment content from 1652 g/g to 2201 g/g and the astaxanthin content from 1554 g/g to 1883 g/g. A sharp decrease in maximum specific growth rate occurred above 150 l -pinene/l.  相似文献

Summary The -glucuronidase staining characteristics of isolated T cell populations and the T and T enriched fractions derived of them were studied. T lymphocytes were obtained from purified T lymphocytes by ox-IgG rosette sedimentation. The rosette-forming cells in the pellet were referred to as T lymphocytes, whereas the lymphocytes in the interface were referred to as T depleted or T lymphocytes. B cells were studied on rosetted mononuclear cells with either mouse erythrocytes or with Staphylococcus Aureus (Cowan I) bacteria, after a preceeding polyvalent anti-human Ig treatment of the cells. While B cells showed mostly no reactivity, T and T cells were respectively characterised by a dot-like and granular pattern of reactivity. These findings are in agreement with those observed by others after -naphthyl-acetate esterase or acid phosphatase staining. Within the T lymphocyte fraction, the T non-, non lymphocytes seemed to have a granular pattern of reactivity. The same staining pattern was found in non-B, non-T lymphocytes.  相似文献

Transitions in growth irradiance level from 92 to 7 Em-2 s-1 and vice versa caused changes in the pigment contents and photosynthesis of Oscillatoria agardhii. The changes in chlorophyll a and C-phycocyanin contents during the transition from high to low irradiance (HL) were reflected in photosynthetic parameters. In the LH transition light utilization efficiencies of the cells changed faster than pigment contents. This appeared to be related to the lowering of light utilization efficiencies of photosynthesis. As a possible explanation it was hypothesized that excess photosynthate production led to feed back inhibition of photosynthesis. Time-scales of changes in the maximal rate of O2 evolution were discussed as changes in the number of reaction centers of photosystem II in relation to photosynthetic electron transport. Parameters that were subject to change during irradiance transitions obeyed first order kinetics, but hysteresis occurred when comparing HL with LH transients. Interpretation of first order kinetic analysis was discussed in terms of adaptive response vs changes in growth rate.Non-standard abbreviations Chla chlorophyll a - CPC C-phycocyanin - PS II photosystem II - PS I photosystem I - RC II reaction center of photosystem II - P photosynthetic O2-evolution - I irradiance, Em-2 s-1 - light utilization efficiency of cells, mmol O2·mg dry wt-1·h-1/Em-2 s-1 - light utilization efficiency of photosynthetic apparatus, mol O2·mol Chla -1·h-1/Em-2 s-1 - Pmax maximal rate of O2 evolution by cells, mol O2·mg dry wt-1·h-1 - Pmax maximal rate of O2 evolution by photosynthetic apparatus, mol O2·mol·Chla -1·h-1 - LL low light, E m-2 s-1 - HL high light, E m-2 s-1 - LH low to high light transition - HL high to low light transition - k specific rate of adaptation, h-1 - specific growth rate, h-1 - Q pool size of cell constituent, mol·mg dry wt-1 - q net synthesis rate of cell constituent, mol·mg dry wt-1·h-1  相似文献

Epinephrine at 10–100 M stimulated somatic embryogenesis from orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) leaves cultured on SH medium with 30 M of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Ethylene emanation was increased at epinephrine concentrations greater than 10 M. Decarboxylation by the leaves of [1-14C]IAA included in the medium was decreased almost 3-fold by 10 M epinephrine. Epinephrine at 10 M enhanced the number of regenerated plants on SH medium with 30 M dicamba (SH-30). Ethylene emanation was increased by epinephrine concentrations of 500 M and greater included in SH-30 but somatic embryogenesis was decreased. Addition of 8 M CoCl2, 6H2O (an ethylene biosynthesis inhibitor) to medium with 500 M epinephrine decreased ethylene emanation to the control level but did not alleviate the decreased embryogenic response.  相似文献

To assess the role interleukins and mitogens play in regulating immunoglobulin (Ig) gene expression via the Ig enhancer and promoter, transgenic mice carrying two different Ig gene regulatory regions were generated. One, EkCAT, contains the Ig heavy chain enhancer (E) and the light chain promoter driving the chloramphenicol acetyltransferase (CAT) gene. In the other, EkCAT, CAT is under the control of the promoter alone. E and relative activity were assessed by CAT assay. In EkCAT mice, low CAT expression was consistently found in spleen, bone marrow, mesenteric lymph node, and thymus but not in brain, lung, or kidney. In EkCAT mice, CAT expression was detectable just above background in lymphoid tissues, suggesting a basic level of tissue specificity in the absence of the enhancer. Whole spleen cell cultures prepared from the mice were treated with lymphokines and mitogens. Lipopolysaccharide (LPS), concanavilin A (Con A), interleukin 6 (IL-6), and interferon- (IFN-) increased CAT expression to varying extents in cells derived from EkCAT mice but not in spleen cells prepared from EkCAT mice. Thus, the presence of E, in addition to the promoter, is essential for the stimulation of CAT expression mediated by these factors. B cells from EkCAT mice were separated by density into populations of small and large cells. In untreated small B cells, no CAT expression was detected and only addition of LPS resulted in an increase in CAT expression. In large B cells, CAT was expressed at a low level without addition of exogenous factors. Incubation with LPS, IL-6, Con A and IFN- caused CAT expression to increase several-fold. This transgenic system provides a means to identify exogenous factors that activate Ig enhancers and promoters.This work has been submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the doctoral degree from the George Washington University.  相似文献

Uptake kinetics of nitrogen derived from sewage–seawater mixtures (2.5–20% v/v effluent) were determined in the laboratory for Ulva rigida (Chlorophyceae) native from Bahía Nueva (Golfo Nuevo, Patagonia, Argentine). In terms of nitrogen concentration, experimental enrichment levels varied between 53.7 and 362.3M of ammonium and between 0.77 and 6.21M of nitrate+nitrite. Uptake rates were fitted to the Michaelis–Menten equation, with the following kinetic parameters: ammonium: Vmax = 591.2molg–1h–1, K s=262.3M, nitrate+nitrite: V max=12.9molg–1h–1, K s=3.5M). Both nutrients were taken up simultaneously, but ammonium incorporation was faster in all cases. The results show a high capability of Ulva rigida to remove sewage-derived nitrogen from culture media. In the field, most of the nitrogen provided by the effluent would be tied up in algal biomass, supporting low nitrogen levels found at a short distance away from the source.  相似文献

In Fuji, the production of ethylene was increased with the addition of AgNO3 and inhibited with the addition of 10 M aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG). The addition of 80 M AgNO3 to transformed explants of Fuji cultured on selection medium resulted in increased ethylene production (20 l l–1) at 3 weeks. Under examining the effect of AgNO3 in Fuji, the 40 M AgNO3 showed with higher 33.8% and 6.5% in the efficiency of regeneration and transformation. However, ethylene production in Gala explants treated with 10M AgNO3 (3 l l–1) decreased after 2 weeks compared with the control (5 l l–1). Although the regeneration efficiency of Gala with 10 M AgNO3 was higher (41.1%) than the control (20.1%), there was no significant difference in the transformation efficiency at the same concentration. Shoot regeneration of Fuji and Gala was completely inhibited with 10 M AVG. These results suggest that the addition of AgNO3 affects the efficiency of Agrobacterium-mediated gene transfer in Fuji.Eun Soo Seong, Ill Min Chung- These two Authors Contributed equally to this work  相似文献

Summary The pattern of innervation on individual iliotibialis muscle fibres from axolotl (Ambystoma mexicanum) has been investigated histologically and elctrophysiologically. These polyneural fibres were found to be innervated on average at five end plate sites. The sites were distributed irregularly along each fibre. Average end plate length was found to be approxiamtely 70 m. Most end plates were separated by less than 1000 m; 26% by less than 150 m; the average separation was 516 m. Advantage was taken of the dual innervation of the muscle to investigate the separation between synaptic terminals from different axons. Some individual fibres were found to be innervated by axons from two different spinal nerves. End plate sites on dually innervated fibres were located by ACh iontophoresis. 30% of such sites were found to be innervated by more than one axon terminal. The average separation of such sites was found to be 950 m. Four different axons were found to innervate some individual muscle fibres. It is suggested that the unusual ability of axolotl muscle fibres to accept synaptic terminals from different axons at closely adjacent sites may be a major factor underlying selective reinnervation in this animal.Vacation student assisted by The Dale Fund of the Physiological Society  相似文献

DNA molecules from lysates of microsporocytes at different stages of meiosis of Lilium longiflorum were examined in the electron microscope. In all of the preparations, only linear (non-circular) molecules were found. They had a mean length of between 59 and 75 , and a range of lengths which varied from 1 to 115 , to 1 to 210 . From the data obtained, there was no indication of a change in molecular form or size of DNA molecules associated with the process of meiosis.  相似文献

The susceptibility of 21 strains ofAspergillus (11 ofA. fumigatus, 8 ofA. niger, and 2 ofA. flavus) isolated from human pathologic specimens to Amphotericin B and Miconazole has been comparatively studied. Determination of the minimal inhibitory concentration of both drugs in a liquid medium showed a noticeably variability for the different strains. The values obtained for Amphotericin B varied between 0.25g/ml (2 strains) and 1.25g/ml (5 strains) after 48 hours, and between 1.25g/ml (1 strain) and 50g/ml (1 strain) after 10 days. For Miconazole the results varied between 0.1g/ml (1 strain) and 25g/ml (1 strain) after 48 hours of incubation, and between 0.5g/ml (5 strains) and > 100g/ml after 10 days. The variability of these results indicates the usefulness of carrying ourin vitro sensitivity studies whenever it is possible.  相似文献

Guar (Cyamopsis tetragonoloba L. Taub) is a drought tolerant and multipurpose grain legume cash crop grown primarily under rainfed conditions in several countries. The effect of various growth regulators and their combinations on a variety of explants, namely the embryo, cotyledons, cotyledonary nodes, shoot tip and hypocotyle, has been studied and an efficient system for callus induction and regeneration from callus has been developed. It was established that Murashige and Skoogs culture medium containing 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (10.0M) in combination with 6-benzylaminopurine (5.0M) with embryo or cotyledon explants is most suitable for induction of green and friable morphogenic callus, with a range of 82.5–95% of cultured explants responding to callus induction. Efficient de novo shoot regeneration was achieved by culturing the callus obtained on this medium on Murashige and Skoogs medium containing 1-naphthlenacetic acid (13.0M) in combination with 6-benzylaminopurine (5.0M) with a range of 82.1–88.4% of callus clumps producing 20–25 shoots. In vitro rooting of cultured shoots was obtained on half-salt concentration of Murashige and Skoogs culture medium supplied with indole-3-butyric acid (5.0M) on which 82–90% of cultured shoots produced healthy roots. The in vitro regenerated plants were grown to pod setting and subsequent maturity under greenhouse conditions.  相似文献

Lyophilized aqueous extract of Maytenus ilicifolia leaves (LAEMIL) is commonly used in Brazilian folk medicine in the treatment of dyspepsia as well as gastric ulcers. We have investigated the effect and the possible mechanism of action of the LAEMIL on acid secretion in isolated frog gastric mucosa incubated in an Ussing chamber. It was observed that LAEMIL (7–28 mg%) as well as cimetidine (125–4,000 M), a well-known histamine H2 receptor antagonist, decreased basal acid secretion in a concentration-dependent manner. Similarly to cimetidine (190 M), LAEMIL (21 mg%) also inhibited gastric acid secretion induced by increasing concentrations of histamine (50–800 M). The EC50 values for histamine alone and histamine in the presence of LAEMIL or cimetidine were 94.6 M (71.1–125.9 M), 244.9 M (209.4–286.4 M) and 142.2 M (23.6–855.0 M), respectively. LAEMIL, histamine and cimetidine were effective on acid secretion only when added to the serosal surface of the mucosa. Furthermore, simultaneous addition of LAEMIL and cimetidine at concentrations, per se, ineffective, caused a 16% reduction in the basal acid secretion [from 8.3±0.3 to 6.9±0.2 Eq g–1 (15 min)–1, n=4]. Although effects such as inhibition of histamine biosynthesis and/or histamine release can not be ruled out, our data suggest that LAEMIL, like cimetidine, reduces acid secretion in the isolated frog gastric mucosa by antagonising histamine H2 receptors.Abbreviations LAEMIL Lyophilized aqueous extract of Maytenus ilicifolia leaves - Hist Histamine - Cim Cimetidine  相似文献

Multiple shoots of Curcuma longa were induced by culture of bud explants for 1week in Murashige and Skoog (MS) liquid medium supplemented with 72.64M thidiazuron (TDZ) prior to culture on MS gelled medium without growth regulator for 8weeks. The regeneration rate was up to 11.4±1.7shoots/explant. Rooting was spontaneous and the regenerated plants were successfully transferred to soil. This protocol can be an alternative for rapid micropropagation of C. longa used for phytomedicine raw material production.  相似文献

Callus development in Callistemon viminalis was readily achieved when axillary buds derived from nodal tissue were placed in a medium containing macro- and micro-nutrients, sucrose (0.06 M), inositol (300 M), nicotinic acid (20 M), pyridoxine hydrochloride (3 M), thiamine hydrochloride (2 M), riboflavin (10 M), cytokinins (5 M) and auxins (0.1 M). The presence of benzylaminopurine (5 M) and p-chlorophenoxyacetic acid (0.1 M) promoted the most vigorous callus development and sprout formation. Rooting of nodal material was rare but occurred readily following the transference of sprouts developed on callus to a basal medium containing sucrose and salts. Root initiation was stimulated, however, by the presence of auxins. Chlorophenoxyacetic acid while stimulating root initiation repressed root growth. Indole butyric acid stimulated both root initiation and shoot growth at concentrations of 0.005 to 0.1 M. The treatment of choice for rooting and shoot growth was the addition of indole butyric acid at a concentration of 0.01 M.  相似文献
