山茱萸不同栽培品种的 rDNA ITS 序列分析

为测定山茱萸（Cornus officinalis Sieb.et.Zucc.）核糖体DNA的ITS序列,对山茱萸不同栽培品种进行了ITS序列分析。通过实验筛选出一对引物,进行PCR扩增,对扩增产物提取纯化,双脱氧链终止法DNA测序。然后,利用DNAssist Version 2.0软件加手工校正确定ITS1-5.8S-ITS2序列,并进行ITS序列分析。获得了山茱萸的ITS1-5.8S-ITS2完全序列,ITS1为253bp,5.8S为156bp,ITS2为273bp,总共682bp。7种果型的山茱萸其5.8S基因序列显示高度的一致性,圆柱形果型、长梨形果型、椭圆形果型和纺锤形果型的ITS区序列完全一致,短圆柱形果型在ITS1区3′端及ITS2区5′端各有1个变异位点;短梨形果型在ITS1区5′端有3个变异位点;长圆柱形果型在ITS1区有5个变异位点。结果表明,ITS序列在山茱萸种内比较保守,有的栽培品种之间有较小的差异,此研究为中药山茱萸分子鉴定提供了科学依据。

The effect of triacontanol on micropropagation of balm, Melissa officinalis L.

 Triacontanol, a long-chain primary alcohol was found to be an effective growth regulator in the micropropagation of balm, Melissa officinalis. In both the multiplication and the rooting phase, concentrations of 2, 5, 10 and 20 μg triacontanol per liter were applied. After 4 weeks of culture, the fresh weight of shoots was measured in the multiplication phase and root formation, photosynthetic activity, chlorophyll content and the fresh and dry weights of shoots were analyzed in the root induction phase. In the multiplication phase, 5 μg/l triacontanol was found to be the optimal concentration, while in the rooting phase 2 μg/l was the most effective. Triacontanol increased the number and length of roots, and it enhanced shoot growth, fresh weight, and the chlorophyll content, but it had no effect on the dry weight and the photosynthetic activity of the plants. Results of our work demonstrate that triacontanol can be applied as an effective growth regulator in the tissue culture of balm.

Glycosides from Roots of Cyathula officinalis Kuan

Abstract: To search for new and bioactive compounds from traditional Chinese medicines, a new glycoside, 3-O-[α- L -rhamnopyranosyl-(1→3)-( n -butyl-β- D -glucopyranosiduronate)]-28-O-β- D -glucopyranosyloleanolic acid ( 1 ), was isolated from the roots of Cyathula officinalis Kuan, along with 3-O-(methyl-β- D -glucopyranosiduronate)-28-O-β- D -glucopyranosyl oleanolic acid ( 2 ), 3-O-β- D -glucopyranosyl oleanolic acid ( 3 ), 3-O-β- D -glucuronopyranosyl oleanolic acid ( 4 ), 3-O-[β- L -rhamnopyranosyl-(1→3)-(β- D -glucuronopyranosyl)] oleanolic acid ( 5 ), 3-O-(β- D -glucuronopyranosyl)-28-O-β- D -glucopyranosyl oleanolic acid ( 6 ), 28-O-β- D -glucuronopyranosyl-(1→4)-β- D -glucopyranosyl hederagenin ( 7 ), 3-O-[β- L -rhamnopyranosyl-(1→3)-β- D -glucuronopyranosyl]-28-O-β- D -glucopyranosyl oleanolic acid ( 8 ), and 3-O-[β- D -glucopyranosyl-(1→2)-α- L -rhamnopyranosyl-(1→3)-β- D -glucuronopyranosyl]-28-O-β- D -glucopyranosyl oleanolic acid ( 9 ). The structures of these compounds were determined based on spectral and chemical evidence. The 50 per cent growth-inhibiting (GI₅₀) of compounds 1 and 5 against MDA-MB-231 (a human breast cancer cell line) was 3.44 × 10^-4 and 4.66 × 10^-4 mol/L, respectively.

Regeneration of haploid plants from isolated microspores of asparagus (Asparagus officinalis L.)

High percentages of micro-calli and micro-derived embryos were produced from isolated asparagus microspores at late uninucleate stage on MS liquid medium supplemented with 1.0 mg l^–1 2,4-D and 0.5 mg l^–1 BA. Two types of calli, namely compact callus (CC) and loose callus (LC), were found. Plantlets were regenerated via organogenesis, when these calli were transferred onto MS solid medium supplemented with 1.0 mg l^–1 BA and 0.2 mg l^–1 IBA 6 weeks. Embryos were produced from liquid cultured microspores, or from solid cultured micro-calli. The frequencies of haploid plant production from organogenesis and embryogenesis were compared. Effects of plant growth regulators on callus production, plantlet regeneration, and haploid plant production were tested. The combination of BA 1.0 mg l^–1 and IBA 0.2 mg l^–1 resulted the highest precentage of haploid plant production (7.7% from CC, 4.3% from LC).Abbreviations 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - IBA 3-indolybutyric acid - BA 6-binzyladinine - NAA naphtalene acetic acid - MS Murashige and Skoog     

Identification of two markers linked to the sex locus in dioecious <Emphasis Type="Italic">Asparagus officinalis</Emphasis> plants

One hundred decamer primers of random-amplified polymorphic DNA were tested on dioecious Asparagus officinalis plants to identify sex-linked molecular markers. One primer (S368) produced two markers (S368-928 and S368-1178) in female plants. These two DNA markers were identified in 30 male and female plants, respectively, and a S368-928 marker was proved to be linked to the female sex locus. The female-linked S368-928 marker was sequenced and specific primers were synthesized to generate a 928 bp marker of sequence characterized amplified regions (SCAR) in female plants, SCAR₉₂₈. SCAR₉₂₈ could be used to correctly screen homozygous mm female plants of A. officinalis. However, results of Southern blot analysis suggest that the hybridization pattern of S368-928 was presented in both sex plants. This text was submitted by the authors in English.
