Composition and structure of nucleolar skeleton (nucleolar matrix)——Actin and fibrillarin are two main protein components of nucleolar skeleton

Purified nucleoli of HeLa cells were treated sequentially with nonionic detergent, nucleic acid enzyme, low salt and high salt. The residual nucleolar structure termed nucleolar skeleton (nucleolar matrix) was shown as a fine network under electron microscope with DGD embedding-unembedding technique. Such structures of BHK-21 cell and mouse liver cell are similar to that of HeLa cell. The protein composition of the nucleolar skeleton of HeLa cells was analyzed. The protein composition of such nucleolar residual shows obvious difference from the compositions of nuclear matrix and chromosome scaffold. The major protein composition of the nucleolar skeleton of HeLa cells contains 6-7 polypeptides. Their molecular weights are about 48, 43, 36 and 33 ku. Further studies show that actin and fib-rillarin are two major protein components of nucleolar skeleton of HeLa cells.     

水稻抗白叶枯病基因Xa-4的PCR标记研究

根据与水稻抗白叶枯病基因Xa-4紧密连锁的分子标记M55的序列设计引物,通过对国际水稻研究所育成的抗白叶枯病近等基因系和基因累加系的叶片DNA、半粒种子提取物及Xa-4基因的杂合体DNA的PCR特异扩增,初步建立了Xa-4的PCR标记体系。进而用该标记体系对我国籼型杂交水稻常用的亲本材料进行分析,揭示出了Xa-4在这些材料中的分布情况。 Abstract　Based on the sequence of a DNA marker tightly linked to the rice bacterial blight（BB） resistance gene Xa-4, two primers were designated and synthesized to develop a PCR marker for the gene. Specific amplified polymorphism analysis was carried out with these primers on a set of BB resistance isogenic lines and pyramided lines developed by IRRI. Two PCR bands were revealed corresponding to lines with dominant Xa-4 and those with the recessive allele, respectively, regardless the lines pyramided with other resistance genes. A hybrid with heterozygous Xa-4 produced both of the two allele PCR pattern. Then, the PCR marker was used to survey a range of hybrid rice germplasm. The results of the germplasm survey will be useful in hybrid rice breeding programs aimed at exploiting Xa-4.     

单倍体小麦与羊草的属间体细胞杂交

以失去植株再生能力的小麦单倍体愈伤组织和羊草二倍体愈伤组织为材料,游离原生质体,并用紫外线自理２羊草原生质体,用ＰＥＧ法融合,对融合克隆进行染色体和同工酶分析,在已贩２６个克隆中有２１个是杂种,其中有一个克隆再生出短命小植株,结果 体小麦与二倍体草的不对称融合虽然再生互补效应不如二倍体小麦,然而杂种优先生长的现象仍然比较明显。如果改善实验条件和双亲原始的再生能力,这种融合方式仍然可以利用。     

北京地区蒿柳的开花物候期及单花序开放过程中花粉活力和柱头可授性变化

Flowering phenology and flowering dynamics of female and male inflorescences of Salix viminalis Linn. in Beijing were observed in 2015 and 2016, and changes in pollen activity and stigma receptivity were also investigated. The results show that early flowering stage of S. viminalis in Beijing is happened in early?March, flowering period is 11-18 d, and flowering pattern is the first opening type of male flower. Flowering period of single inflorescence in male and female plants is 10-15 d and 8-10 d, respectively, which can be divided into five stages:emerging color stage, initial flowering stage, half flowering stage, full flowering stage and withered stage. Flowering date of male plant is earlier about 3-4 d than that of female plant. However, the difference of full flowering stage between male and female plants is only 1 d. Pollen germination rate and stigma receptivity show a trend of firstly increasing then decreasing during blossom process. Pollen germination rate reaches the highest of 72% at full flowering stage, and stigma receptivity is more than 90% at half and full flowering stages. Therefore, it is suggested that pollen collection and pollination in mid?March can improve success rate of cross breeding of S. viminalis.     

成纤维细胞生长因子17研究进展

成纤维细胞生长因子17(FGF17)是成纤维细胞生长因子(FGF)家族的成员之一,并与FGF8、FGF18组成FGF8亚家族。在胚胎时期FGF17扮演重要角色,对多种组织器官起着重要作用。研究发现,FGF17不仅参与了脑部发育和神经形成,而且参与骨骼、动脉的发育和肿瘤等生物过程。现针对FGF17的特点,及其在胚胎发育、神经系统、癌症等方面的作用进行综述。     

水稻籼粳亚种间杂种低温花粉不育的QTL分析

为探明籼粳杂种低温花粉不育的遗传基础,以籼稻品种3037和粳型广亲和品种02428的F2分离群体进行了低温花粉不育的遗传分析。推迟播种后,F2群体各单株孕穗期的日平均温度为21～23℃,调查了F2群体各单株的花粉育性。利用108对SSR引物构建了包含157个F2单株,覆盖12条染色体的分子标记连锁图谱。该连锁图的总长度为1857．8cM,标记间平均距离为16．26cM,标记较均匀地分布在12条染色体上。采用区间作图法对F2群体花粉不育进行QTL分析,共检测到2个低温花粉不育QTLS,即qLTSPS2和qLTSPS5,分别位于第2、5染色体,其加性效应分别为0．021、0．045,显性效应分别为-0．246、-0．251,显性度分别为11．7和4．8,具有超显性效应．超显性是QTL作用的主要方式,这2个位点杂合基因型在低温环境下具有降低花粉育性的作用,分别解释表型变异的15．6％、11．9％。另外,两因素的方差分析表明这两个QTL之间不存在互作。
