Cytological studies on the genus Holcoglossum (Orchidaceae)

The karyotypes of ten species of Holcoglossum (Orchidaceae), a highly endangered and diversified genus from China, were investigated to study the infrageneric relationships, biogeography, and speciation patterns in the Hengduan Mountains. The karyotype formulae of the studied species are as follows: 2 n  = 38 = 20m + 18sm in H. subulifolium , 2 n  = 38 = 22m + 16sm in H. amesianum , 2 n  = 38 = 26m + 12sm (6 SAT) in H. lingulatum , 2 n  = 38 = 26m + 12sm in H. wangii , 2 n  = 38 = 10m + 28sm in H. kimballianum , 2 n  = 38 = 14m + 22sm + 2st in H. flavescens , 2 n  = 38 = 24m + 12sm + 2st in H. rupestre , 2 n  = 38 = 14m + 20sm + 4st in H. sinicum , 2 n  = 38 = 16m + 14sm + 8st in H. weixiense , and 2 n  = 76 in H. tsii . The karyotypes of two tropical species, H. amesianum and H. subulifolium , are the most primitive in the genus, whereas those of four temperate alpine species, H. sinicum , H. rupestre , H. weixiense , and H. flavescens , are more advanced. H. tsii is a tetraploid and H. rupestr e may be one of its ancestors. The low frequency of polyploidy in Holcoglossum in the Hengduan Mountains region supports the conclusion that chromosome stasis during rapid speciation is common there.  © 2007 The Linnean Society of London.

Effects of PKA phosphorylation of cardiac troponin I and strong crossbridge on conformational transitions of the N-domain of cardiac troponin C in regulated thin filaments

Regulation of cardiac muscle function is initiated by binding of Ca2+ to troponin C (cTnC) which induces a series of structural changes in cTnC and other thin filament proteins. These structural changes are further modulated by crossbridge formation and fine-tuned by phosphorylation of cTnI. The objective of the present study is to use a new F?rster resonance energy transfer-based structural marker to distinguish structural and kinetic effects of Ca2+ binding, crossbridge interaction, and protein kinase A phosphorylation of cTnI on the conformational changes of the cTnC N-domain. The FRET-based structural marker was generated by attaching AEDANS to one cysteine of a double-cysteine mutant cTnC(13C/51C) as a FRET donor and attaching DDPM to the other cysteine as the acceptor. The doubly labeled cTnC mutant was reconstituted into the thin filament by adding cTnI, cTnT, tropomyosin, and actin. Changes in the distance between Cys13 and Cys51 induced by Ca2+ binding/dissociation were determined by FRET-sensed Ca2+ titration and stopped-flow studies, and time-resolved fluorescence measurements. The results showed that the presence of both Ca2+ and strong binding of myosin head to actin was required to achieve a fully open structure of the cTnC N-domain in regulated thin filaments. Equilibrium and stopped-flow studies suggested that strongly bound myosin head significantly increased the Ca2+ sensitivity and changed the kinetics of the structural transition of the cTnC N-domain. PKA phosphorylation of cTnI impacted the Ca2+ sensitivity and kinetics of the structural transition of the cTnC N-domain but showed no global structural effect on cTnC opening. These results provide an insight into the modulation mechanism of strong crossbridge and cTnI phosphorylation in cardiac thin filament activation/relaxation processes.     

长吻鮠血细胞发生的研究

用Wright-Giemsa和PAS染色对长吻鮠头肾、肾脏、脾脏、肝脏等器官组织的涂片、印片染色观察发现,头肾、肾脏和脾脏是其主要造血器官。红细胞、粒细胞和淋巴细胞主要在肾脏和头肾中发生,其次是脾脏。单核细胞则主要在肾脏和脾脏中发生,头肾中也有少量单核细胞产生。肝脏中无原始型血细胞,可能不是其造血器官。红细胞的发育经历四个阶段,其胞体体积经历了由大到小,由小到大再变小的"两大两小"发育过程;粒细胞的发育经历五个阶段,其胞体体积均由大变小,双叶或多叶核的粒细胞可能是衰老的粒细胞亦即核的分叶是粒细胞衰老的标志;淋巴细胞和单核细胞的发育各经历了三个阶段,两者发育成熟过程中胞体体积均由大变小。巨噬细胞由单核细胞发育而来。原血细胞和部分早期幼稚血细胞可以进行有丝分裂,部分成熟红细胞和血栓细胞可以进行直接分裂。红细胞在整个发育过程中,PAS反应均呈阴性,各类白细胞的发育过程中,PAS反应由阴性到阳性并逐渐增强,这显示随着白细胞的逐渐发育成熟,细胞内糖原物质含量逐渐增多。     

番茄幼苗对接种晚疫病菌的生理响应

以番茄晚疫病抗病品系CLN2037E、感病品系5号自交系及其杂种一代F1为材料,人工接种番茄晚疫病菌生理小种T1、T2、T3,研究番茄苗期抵抗晚疫病的生理响应.结果显示：（1）感病品系的膜脂过氧化产物丙二醛（MDA）与过氧化氢（H2O2）的含量增加幅度较大,抗病品系的含量则相对稳定,F1代的变化趋势接近感病品系;（2）抗病品系和感病品系的多酚氧化酶（PPO）、过氧化物酶（POD）和超氧化物歧化酶（SOD）活性变化都呈先升高后下降,抗病品系的酶活性高峰出现早且峰值小于感病品系.研究发现,抗病番茄品系幼苗的多项生理指标在接种晚疫病菌后变化幅度小而稳定,并能在短时间内基本恢复到原来的正常状态,从而表现出较强的抗病性.     

插网网目尺寸及采样时间对潮沟游泳动物采样的影响

在长江河口九段沙盐沼湿地的一条潮沟中,我们比较了两种不同网目尺寸（4mm和8mm）的插网（fyke net）及日夜潮对游泳动物群落采样效率的影响。共捕获鱼类16种5476尾、虾2种4982只。采用方差分析、柯尔莫诺夫-斯米尔诺夫非参数检验法和无度量多维标定分析对两种网目插网的捕获效率,样品的体长分布,群落结构及日夜潮间的差异进行了分析。结果表明,网目尺寸对样品中游泳动物的物种数和鱼类的多度没有影响,但是小网目的插网对虾类有较高的捕获率。两种网目尺寸的插网均在夜潮中捕获较多的鱼类个体,但虾类在日潮捕获较多。在日潮中,网目尺寸对捕获物中五种优势游泳动物的体长分布无显著影响。在夜间,小网目的插网对斑尾复缎虎和脊尾白虾的较大个体具有较高的捕获率,但对较大个体鲅的捕获率不如大网目的插网。样品中游泳动物的群落组成在日夜潮间存在明显差异,大网目捕获物的样本间差异比小网目小。     

核酸-蛋白质结合能在剪切位点识别中的应用

把最大信息原理应用到核酸序列的保守位点分析中。利用最大信息原理,推导出了核酸和蛋白质特异性结合时的结合能表达式,并且估计了和蛋白质发生相互作用的核酸序列上的位点范围。为了检验此理论是否较为成功地反映了核酸和蛋白质结合时的实际情况,把它应用到基因内含子剪切位点的识别中,识别结果达到了较高的敏感性和特异性,这说明利用最大信息原理推导结合能表达式及估计核酸序列上参与反应的位点范围的理论是较为成功的。此研究结果一方面有助于核酸和蛋白质相互作用的理解,另一方面,也有助于和蛋白质发生相互作用的各种核酸序列的计算机识别研究。
