Aqueous extracts of Ocimum sanctum and O. basilicum leaves contained compounds that killed Meloidogyne incognita larvae in 160 min. Thin layer and gas-liquid chromatography, and infrared spectrophotometry indicated that the essential oils eugenol and linalool were the active nematicidal compounds. 相似文献

Assam hill goat (Capra hircus) is a prolific local goat in India. bone morphogenetic protein receptor (BMPR1B) gene was studied as a candidate gene for the prolificacy of goats. The objective of the present study was to detect the incidence of mutation in the exonic region of BMPR1B gene of Assam hill goat. Total 90 blood samples were collected randomly from different parts of Assam and genomic DNA were extracted using phenol–chloroform method. The quantity and quality of extracted DNA was examined by spectrophotometry and gel electrophoresis, respectively. PCR amplicon showed a product of 140 bp fragment of BMPR1B gene. The purified product upon digestion with AvaII showed monomorphic banding pattern and revealed wild type alleles with AA genotype. Nucleotide sequencing showed one new mutation 773 (G→C) which is found to be unique in Assam hill goat. Construction of tree at nucleotide level generates from the present experiment lies in common cluster which differs from the other breeds of goat. The analysis of polymorphism for BMPR1B in Assam hill goat indicates that the genetic factor responsible for prolificacy or multiple kidding rates is not related to the reported mutated alleles of BMPR1B gene. Therefore, attempts to be made to detect other SNPs for BMPR1B gene or otherwise effort should be made towards other fecundity gene which might be responsible for the prolificacy of Assam hill goat. 相似文献

It was found that the bioactive compound, dibutyl phthalate, was produced by a new soil isolate Streptomyces albidoflavus 321.2. Once this active compound was recovered by ethyl acetate from the fermented broth, being possible to isolate 13.4 mg/l, it was purified by paper, silica gel column, thin layer and gas chromatography. Structure was determined by analysing UV, IR and GC-MS spectra. During analysis, such active compound showed strong activity against gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria, as well as unicellular and filamentous fungi. The antimicrobial activity of the compound was reversed by the amino acid proline. No acute toxicity was observed. 相似文献

The lignin deficient double mutant of cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase (CAD, cad-4, cad-5 or cad-c, cad-d) in Arabidopsis thaliana [Sibout, R., Eudes, A., Mouille, G., Pollet, B., Lapierre, C., Jouanin, L., Séguin, A., 2005. Cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase-C and -D are the primary genes involved in lignin biosynthesis in the floral stem of Arabidopsis. Plant Cell 17, 2059-2076], was comprehensively examined for effects on disruption of native lignin macromolecular configuration; the two genes encode the catalytically most active CAD's for monolignol/lignin formation [Kim, S.-J., Kim, M.-R., Bedgar, D.L., Moinuddin, S.G.A., Cardenas, C.L., Davin, L.B., Kang, C., Lewis, N.G., 2004. Functional reclassification of the putative cinnamyl alcohol dehydrogenase multigene family in Arabidopsis. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci., USA 101, 1455-1460]. The inflorescence stems of the double mutant presented a prostrate phenotype with dynamic modulus properties greatly reduced relative to that of the wild type (WT) line due to severe reductions in macromolecular lignin content. Interestingly, initially the overall pattern of phenolic deposition in the mutant was apparently very similar to WT, indicative of comparable assembly processes attempting to be duplicated. However, shortly into the stage involving (monomer cleavable) 8-O-4' linkage formation, deposition was aborted. At this final stage, the double mutant had retained a very limited ability to biosynthesize monolignols as evidenced by cleavage and release of ca. 4% of the monolignol-derived moieties relative to the lignin of the WT line. In addition, while small amounts of cleavable p-hydroxycinnamaldehyde-derived moieties were released, the overall frequency of (monomer cleavable) 8-O-4' inter-unit linkages closely approximated that of WT for the equivalent level of lignin deposition, in spite of the differences in monomer composition. Additionally, 8-5' linked inter-unit structures were clearly evident, albeit as fully aromatized phenylcoumaran-like substructures. The data are interpreted as a small amount of p-hydroxycinnamaldehydes being utilized in highly restricted attempts to preserve native lignin configuration, i.e. through very limited monomer degeneracy during template polymerization which would otherwise afford lignins proper in the cell wall from their precursor monolignols. The defects introduced (e.g. in the vascular integrity) provide important insight as to why p-hydroxycinnamaldehydes never evolved as lignin precursors in the 350,000 or so extant vascular plant species. It is yet unknown at present, however, as to what levels of lignin reduction can be attained in order to maintain the requisite properties for successful agronomic/forestry cultivation. Nor is it known to what extent, if any, such deleterious modulations potentially compromise plant defenses. Finally, prior to investigating lignin primary structure proper, it is essential to initially define the fundamental characteristics of the biopolymer(s) being formed, such as inter-unit frequency and lignin content, in order to design approaches to determine overall sequences of linkages. 相似文献

Soil organic carbon (SOC) up to 1 m depth originates from contemporary vegetation cover dating from past millennia. Deforestation and reforestation with economically important species is influencing soil carbon sequestration. An attempt has been made in this study to evaluate the impact of vegetation cover change (due to replacement of natural heterogeneous cover by teak and bamboo) on SOC using carbon isotopes (δ13C, 14C) in a tropical system (India). A litter decomposition study was carried out to understand the impact of differences in vegetation characteristics (specifically of leaves) on decomposition. Both experiments were carried out to look at the impact of changes in vegetation characteristics (specifically of leaves) on litter decomposition, and how these influence near term litter decomposition rates (k values) and long-term SOC content of the soil system beneath. Leaves of teak, bamboo and eight other species were selected for this study. The proportion of structural carbohydrates (lignin and cellulose) in leaves significantly (at 5 % level) influenced k values. The SOC and carbon isotope data collected in this study indicate that C3 vegetation cover in the study area could be contemporary and dominant for the past few centuries. This can be extended up to ~2,200 years from the recorded 14C values of teak cover. The study confirms that k values of leaf litter influence SOC present beneath the vegetation cover at the decadal/century time scale. 相似文献

There is much uncertainty as to whether plants use arogenate, phenylpyruvate, or both as obligatory intermediates in Phe biosynthesis, an essential dietary amino acid for humans. This is because both prephenate and arogenate have been reported to undergo decarboxylative dehydration in plants via the action of either arogenate (ADT) or prephenate (PDT) dehydratases; however, neither enzyme(s) nor encoding gene(s) have been isolated and/or functionally characterized. An in silico data mining approach was thus undertaken to attempt to identify the dehydratase(s) involved in Phe formation in Arabidopsis, based on sequence similarity of PDT-like and ACT-like domains in bacteria. This data mining approach suggested that there are six PDT-like homologues in Arabidopsis, whose phylogenetic analyses separated them into three distinct subgroups. All six genes were cloned and subsequently established to be expressed in all tissues examined. Each was then expressed as a Nus fusion recombinant protein in Escherichia coli, with their substrate specificities measured in vitro. Three of the resulting recombinant proteins, encoded by ADT1 (At1g11790), ADT2 (At3g07630), and ADT6 (At1g08250), more efficiently utilized arogenate than prephenate, whereas the remaining three, ADT3 (At2g27820), ADT4 (At3g44720), and ADT5 (At5g22630) essentially only employed arogenate. ADT1, ADT2, and ADT6 had k(cat)/Km values of 1050, 7650, and 1560 M(-1) S(-1) for arogenate versus 38, 240, and 16 M(-1) S(-1) for prephenate, respectively. By contrast, the remaining three, ADT3, ADT4, and ADT5, had k(cat)/Km values of 1140, 490, and 620 M(-1) S(-1), with prephenate not serving as a substrate unless excess recombinant protein (>150 microg/assay) was used. All six genes, and their corresponding proteins, are thus provisionally classified as arogenate dehydratases and designated ADT1-ADT6. 相似文献

Crotalaria pallida Aiton (Smooth rattlebox in English) is widely and wildly distributed in India. The seed of this plant is a valuable source of non-traditional proteins (about 22%) but attention was never been paid to explore the protein content. Chemical investigation has been conducted on Crotalaria pallida seeds (de-oiled) and proteins have been extracted in aqueous solution with different pHs or various concentrations of NaCl, KCl, Na2SO3 and CaCl2·2H2O at pH 7.0. The present study includes isolation, purification, and fractionation of seed protein along with its amino acid composition, molecular weight determination and surface topographies. Multiple polypeptide bands have been identified in the range of 16.5–61.6 kDa. The overall study confirms the seeds of this plant as an important source of unexplored protein. 相似文献
