QTL mapping of economically important traits in Silkworm (Bombyx mori)

The construction of linkage map is both a funda-mental research area and an important aspect of gene analyses in genetics. It provides the guidelines for breeding. A sound linkage map is also necessary for further genetic analysis. In recent years, great and rapid progress has been made in molecular biology, which enables fingerprinting of organisms at the ge-nomic level. Many molecular marker techniques have been well established. Heartening progress has been made in many organisms in the co…     

不同倍性小麦和玉米不同群体杂交诱导小麦单倍体的研究

自从Ｚｅｎｋｔｅｌｅｒ等［１］首先报道了小麦×玉米受精现象以来,许多学者对六倍体普通小麦与玉米杂交进行了广泛的研究,获得单倍体的普通小麦,并筛选到一些杂交亲和性较高的亲本材料［２］。但四倍体小麦与玉米杂交研究报道较少。ＯＤｏｎｏｕｇｈｕｅ等用四倍体小麦与玉米杂交获得单倍体胚［３］。随后,Ａｍｒａｎｉ等［４］和孙敬三等［５］利用这一方法相继获得四倍体小麦的单倍体苗。本文报道了不同倍性的小麦基因型与玉米不同群体杂交对诱导小麦单倍体的影响１　材料和方法１．１　亲本材料用作母本的二倍体小麦有一粒小麦（…     

间隔子修饰引物对扩增产物电泳行为的作用初探

目的:初步研究利用C3Spacer间隔子修饰引物对扩增产物电泳行为的影响及作用。方法:选取1个常用短串联重复序列(STR)位点,利用间隔子修饰该位点荧光标记引物,以DNA标准物质为模板进行PCR扩增,记录相应扩增产物DNA片段长度,进行修饰与长度变化的相关性分析。结果:选取STR位点D13S317,分别利用TTTTC3SpacerC3Spacer、TTTTC3Spacer、TTTT修饰R0X标记引物,相应扩增产物长度为182.67±0.05、182.19±0.11和181.6±0.19bp,未进行修饰的对照组引物扩增产物长度为177.09±0.15 bp,产物DNA片段长度随不同修饰基团的修饰发生规律性变化。结论:发现了一种修饰基团,用该基团修饰引物后,可在体外通过PCR反应改变扩增产物等位基因片段的大小,从而在不改变特异性引物信息的前提下使产物发生规律性位移,修饰基团与DNA片段大小呈内在相关性。     

2种杓兰属植物内生狭截盘多毛孢菌的分离与鉴定

该文报道了西藏杓兰(Cypripedium tibeticum)和无苞杓兰(C. bardolphianum)根中内生真菌新记录种——狭截盘多毛孢(Truncatella angustata)。该研究从四川黄龙沟不同海拔区分别采集到西藏杓兰和无苞杓兰,并在其根中分离获得148个狭截盘多毛孢菌株。形态学观察显示,狭截盘多毛孢菌株在PDA培养基上菌落白色,背面黄褐色;分生孢子器黑色脓包状;分生孢子梭型,4个细胞,3个隔膜;顶端附属丝1~5根。ITS rDNA分析发现3种新基因型菌株(HLIO15_15a_22、HLIO15_20a_42和HLIO15_17a_46);在海拔最高(3 330~3 400 m)的居群中狭截盘多毛孢的分离率最高,且包含全部3种基因型菌株。构建截盘多毛孢属(Truncatella)真菌ITS序列系统发育树,发现狭截盘多毛孢不同生态功能的菌株没有形成明显分支。     

稀有属——刺毡蚧属在中国的发现和一新种记述(同翅目：蚧总科，毡蚧科)

刺毡蚧属Aculeococcus为Lepage氏于1941年所建立,直至目前只知一个属模种,且半世纪来未作形态重描,是一个世界有名的古老疑难属。Lepage当年发表时,未能确定科位,直至Ferris[1]氏在1957年取得一个标本加以研究后,由其第一龄若虫具有像实状体刺而判定应属毡蚧科Eriococcidae,以后Hoy[2]（1962：6）和Morrisons[3]（1966：3）等均沿其说,然而对其在科内的地位,文献中却从未触及。我们最近整理此科历年所存标本,发现一新种已在我国云南西双版纳地区存在,现将研究资料整理报道如下,模式标本保存于山西农业大学蚧虫标本室。1本届…     

重组小牛胸腺核组蛋白的初步研究

将遗传信息从一个世代传递到另一个世代,并对活细胞的复杂功能进行控制的基因,均由DNA构成,这早已是人们普遍接受的概念。但是,从原核细胞裸露的DNA纤维,发展到真核细胞DNA同组蛋白、非组蛋白蛋白及少量RNA紧紧包扎而成的染色体,这一飞跃的奥秘还远未揭开。近年来,随着分子生物学的发展,组蛋白、非组蛋白蛋白以及RNA如何维持染色体的复杂结构,并如何对基因活性进行调节控制的研究,已日益成为现代生物学中最富挑战性的课题之一。     

大肠杆菌中依赖于DNA的RNA聚合酶的提取

在细菌和其他动植物细胞中都普遍存在着一种以DNA作为模板,利用四种核糖核苷三磷酸作为底物来合成RNA的酶,这种酶叫做依赖于DNA的RNA聚合酶[E.C.2.7.7.6]。从细菌中提取这种酶的方法不少,但以Cham-berlin和Berg以及Burgess的方法使用最为普遍。我们主要参照Burgess氏的方法以大肠杆菌K12(E.coli K 12)中提取RNA聚合酶,并稍加改变。     

Relationship of HLA-A, -Cw Polymorphisms with HIV/AIDS in Chinese Yi Ethnic Group of Sichuan Province1

The relationship of HLA-A, -Cw alleles on HIV infection and AIDS disease progression in the Chinese Yi ethnic group of Sichuan province were investigated. The genetic polymorphisms of HLA-A, -Cw alleles of 102 unrelated healthy Chinese Yi ethnic individuals, 68 HIV-1 infected and 21 HIV positive long-time survivors were typed by PCR-SSP assay. Statistic signifiance was determined by the χ^2 test with the SPSS software. No significant differences were observed between the HLA-A, -Cw alleles of the 68 HIV-1 infected and 102 non-infected Chinese Yi control individuals. Whereas the prevalence of A＊3601,Cw＊14（01-03）and Cw＊0304 was significantly higher in 21 long time survivors compared with 102 healthy controls with P values of 0.016, 0.016 and 0.000 by χ^2 or the Fisher exact test respectively. The result implies that A＊3601,Cw＊14（01-03） and Cw＊0304 may be associated with slow AIDS disease progression in the Chinese Yi ethnic group, further studies on this association may yield insight on the pathogenesis of HIV-1 infection.     

Phylogenetic relationship of 16 Oedipodidae species （Insecta： Orthoptera） based on the 16S rRNA gene sequences

The sequences of the mitochondrial 16S rRNA gene of 16 Oedipodidae species were amplified and sequenced. All sequences were aligned and analyzed and the phylogenetic relationships were inferred. The properties of 16S gene in Oedipodidae showed typical patterns of many insects such as a high A＋T content and variable distance-dependent transition/transversion ratios. The 0.2 weight for sites of loops may be advisable for phylogeny reconstruction using the maximum parsimony method. The phylogenetic analysis results do not support the current subfamily classification systems of Oedipodidae. Bryodemellinae and Bryodeminae are closely related and should be merged as one subfamily. The status of Oedipodinae and Locustinae is also problematic.
