伊贝母体细胞无性系的建立及其胚状体的发生

本文报道了伊贝母体细胞无性系的建立及其胚状体的发生。已继代培养三年零六个月共30多代的鳞芽愈伤组织,目前仍有分化能力。通过愈伤组织形态细胞学的观察,发现伊贝母体细胞无性系形成小鳞茎的途径有二:一是由特化了的愈伤组织表皮细胞。经多次分裂发育成不定芽而形成小鳞茎;二是由愈伤组织表层或内层特化了的胚性细胞,经多次分裂发育成胚状体而形成小鳞茎。不定芽和胚状体的形态发生是有区别的。     

糙叶败酱挥发油镇静作用的研究

本文观察了败酱科植物糙叶败酱(Patrinia scabra Bunge)根和根茎中制得的挥发油的镇静作用,井与黄花败酱挥发油做了比较。结果表明,此油灌胃给予数组小鼠,剂量0.45ml/kg,显示如下的作用:[1]能显著延长由于腹腔注射戊巴比妥钠(50mg/kg)引起的小鼠睡眠时间,但其作用强度弱于黄花败酱挥发油。(2)一次灌胃给予小鼠大剂量10.46g/kg的糙叶败酱挥发油,连续观察10天,动物外观正常,无一死亡,体重增加与对照组相似。     

点叶绵枣叶片培养及器官分化的研究

点叶绵枣叶外植体培养于MS 6-BA 1 PPm IBA 0.5 ppm培养基中,一月后不定芽仅从近轴面的叶表面产生。组织学的观察表明,不定芽起源于表皮细胞。     

v-mos oncoproteins affect the nuclear retention and reutilization of glucocorticoid receptors

Expression of the p85gag-mos oncoprotein in temperature sensitive transformed 6m2 cells results in desensitization of glucocorticoid induction of metallothionein-1 mRNA. Indirect immunofluorescence analyses demonstrate that hormone insensitivity in v-mos transformed cells is associated with inefficient nuclear retention of glucocorticoid receptor (GR) protein. Desensitized receptors that accumulate in the cytoplasm of transformed 6m2 cells do not regain the capacity for hormone-dependent nuclear translocation after turnover of the thermo-labile p85gag-mos oncoprotein. Although ligand induced down-regulation of immunoreactive GR protein occurs in transformed 6m2 cells, desensitized receptors appear to retain some capacity to bind hormone in vivo. Thus alterations in the intracellular partitioning of GR protein in v-mos-transformed cells result in the generation of a novel desensitized receptor that is apparently trapped in the cytoplasm and incapable of being reutilized.     

大肠杆菌棉子糖操纵子α—半乳糖苷酶表达的调节控制

The alpha-galactosidase, coded for by the first structural gene rafA in the plasmid determined raf operon was an inducible enzyme. In contrast to lac or mel operon, raf operon has more strict structural specificity for inducers. The enzyme can be induced by melibiose and raffinose, or weakly by D-galactose, but not by structurally related sugars such as lactose, PNPG etc.. The alpha-galactosidase forming capacity as function of growth curve reached a single peak at the end of the logarithmic phase of the growth. The structure and regulation of raf operon is similar to those of lac operon. The repressormor-mediated negative control plays a major role in the regulation of raf operon, and cAMP-CAP mediated positive control is also involved in the regulation. When 0.4% glucose was added into the medium with other carbon sources, the expression of the enzyme was repressed by 2-3 fold. Transient catabolite repression has been observed neither in inducible nor constitutive alpha-galactosidase expression. Based on alpha-galactosidase assay, in mutant strains CA8306(cya) and CA8445 (cya, crp) the expression level of raf operon was only 9% and 2.5% of that in wild type strain respectively. The glucose effect or the repression in cya mutant can be abolished by 1-5 mmol cAMP. The constitutive alpha-galactosidase expression in cya and cry double mutant (CA8445) remains repressible by glucose, but irreversible by cAMP, suggesting cAMP-CAP complex is not the exclusive mediator of the catablite repression.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

南京地区繁缕和小繁缕群体的研究

繁缕(Stellaria media)和小繁缕(S.apetala)是两个形态相似的近缘种,有人把后者作为前者的亚种或变种来处理。本文通过对南京地区不同生境的三个自然群体和三个人工控制栽培群体的取样,以群体为单位,分别测算了叶、萼片、雄蕊、花瓣、果实和种子的8个数量性状的变异,绘制了多角形图;对花粉粒和种子进行了扫描;还通过花蕾套袋试验对种子活力作了检查。结果发现繁缕和小繁缕都是近亲繁殖植物,在形态上区别明显,对生态环境的要求基本相同,但小繁缕似更能耐受人为的践踏和刈割。     

记内蒙古Juxia一新种

本文记述了在内蒙古沙拉木伦额尔登敖包地区第三系下渐新统乌兰戈楚组中发现的始巨犀的一个新种:寿氏始巨犀(Juxia shoui)。据其前臼齿及鼻切迹的位置等特点,这一新种当为始巨犀属中比较进步的一个成员,是包氏始巨犀和巨犀之间的过渡类型的犀类动物。
