罗汉果胚、胚乳及胚乳吸器的发育

本文采用石蜡切片与酶解分离法对罗汉果Ｓｉｒａｉｔｉａｇｒｏｓｖｅｎｏｒｉ胚、胚乳及胚乳吸器的发育过程进行观察．ａ）罗汉果胚的发育是按Ｇｅｕｍｕｒｂａｎｕｍ的分裂程序进行的．属紫菀型．但在合子分裂成球胚过程中,胚芽原细胞分化明显．故属紫菀型的变异型。ｂ）胚乳发育属核型．在球形胚阶段,在合点端和珠孔端有发育的胚乳吸器形成并进行旺盛生长,最大长度达１４２０μｍ,心形胚期．吸器活动开始减退,合点端核型胚乳吸器转变成细胞型．由胚乳本体基部膨大细胞．充当补助吸器．ｃ）酶解分离法研究胚乳吸器的发生发育有较好的应用前景。     

Effects of Manganese Toxicity on the Growth and Gene Expression at the Seedling Stage of Soybean

In order to investigate the effects of Manganese (Mn) toxicity stress on the growth and gene expression at the seedling stage of soybean, soybean seedlings were treated with normal Mn concentration (5 μmol/L MnSO₄) and excess Mn concentration (100 μmol/L MnSO₄) by the method of hydroponic culture in this study. When soybean was subjected to Mn toxicity stress, excessive Mn could affect seedling growth, root development, the number of Mn oxide spots in leaves, and the Mn accumulation content in different parts of soybean. With the increase of exogenous Mn concentration and the prolongation of culture time, the shoot and root biomasses of soybean decreased significantly, but the plant height of soybean had no obvious effects. The total root length, root surface area and root volume of soybean decreased significantly, but the taproot length, taproot tip length and root diameter did not change significantly. The number of Mn spots in the primary leaves (first leaf) was significantly more than that in the old leaves (second leaf) and the youngest leaves (fourth leaf). The Mn concentration in leaves was significantly higher than that in roots, and the Mn concentration in the old leaves was significantly higher than that in youngest leaves with the method of inductively coupled plasma atomic emission spectrometry (ICP-AES). Moreover, the results in the present study suggested that the 10 selected genes were significantly up-regulated or down-regulated by Mn toxicity in the old and young leaves by quantitative real-time PCR (qRT-PCR) analysis. This indicates that these genes might be important in the process of regulation in old and young leaves of the physiological responses and ion transporting to Mn toxicity stress.     

Wnt途径—调控细胞增殖和癌变的关键途径

Wnt/Wingless途径是调控细胞生长增殖的关键途径,在胚胎发育和肿瘤发生中起着重要作用。由于肿瘤抑制基因APC失活突变或原癌基因β－catenin激活突变等因素引起的该途径的异常激活可以启动下游靶基因c-myc和cyclin D1,致使细胞恶性转化,发生肿瘤,尤其是结肠癌。本文对Wnt-APC-β-catenin-TCF/LEF-c-myc/cyclin D1信号途径的最新研究进展作一综述。

高通量测序分析DNA提取引起的对虾肠道菌群结构偏差

【目的】通过高通量测序技术,评价不同DNA试剂盒提取引起的对虾肠道菌群结构偏差,了解健康凡纳滨对虾肠道菌群结构特征。【方法】分别以细菌、粪便和组织DNA试剂盒3次重复提取凡纳滨对虾肠道总DNA(分别编号为SIB,SIS和SIT),检测DNA含量、纯度及其16S r DNA V4区可扩增性,进一步采用Illumina Mi Seq高通量测序比较SIB和SIS样品菌群组成和多样性。【结果】细菌试剂盒提取的虾肠总DNA效果最好,粪便试剂盒次之,而组织试剂盒所提DNA含量低且难以被扩增。从SIB和SIS样品分别获得52151±5085和55296±5147条有效序列,同一(46800条)测序深度下,SIS样品OTU(operational taxonomic unit)数量和Shannon多样性指数均显著高于SIB的,而SIB样品间OTU重复性则优于SIS样品间的。从SIB和SIS样品鉴定的优势门一致,均包括变形菌门(Proteobacteria)、厚壁菌门(Firmicutes)、拟杆菌门(Bacteroidetes)、浮霉菌门(Planctomycetes)、放线菌门(Actinobacteria)和蓝细菌门(Cyanobacteria),但不同分类水平上绝大多数优势菌群丰度在两种样品间差异明显。【结论】高通量测序分析表明对虾肠道菌群结构因DNA提取方法不同而呈现显著偏差;本研究健康凡纳滨对虾肠道核心菌群主要由发光杆菌属(Photobacterium),乳球菌属(Lactococcus),弧菌属(Vibrio),Aliivibrio和3个分类未定属构成。     

Astaxanthin preparation by fermentation of esters from Haematococcus pluvialis algal extracts with Stenotrophomonas species

Natural astaxanthin (Ax) is an additive that is widely used because of its beneficial biochemical functions. However, the methods used to produce free Ax have drawbacks. Chemical saponification methods produce several by‐products, and lipase‐catalyzed hydrolysis methods are not cost effective. In this study, a bacterial strain of Stenotrophomonas sp. was selected to enzymatically catalyze the saponification of Ax esters to produce free all‐trans‐Ax. Through single‐factor experiments and a Box–Behnken design, the optimal fermentation conditions were determined as follows: a seed culture age of 37.79 h, an inoculum concentration of 5.92%, and an initial broth pH of 6.80. Under these conditions, a fermentation curve was drawn, and the optimal fermentation time was shown to be 60 h. At 60 h, the degradation rate of the Ax esters was 98.08%, and the yield of free all‐trans‐Ax was 50.130 μg/mL. © 2016 American Institute of Chemical Engineers Biotechnol.
