抗、感黑穗病谷子品种几种酶活性的比较研究

本文对7个不同抗、感黑穗病的谷子品种在不同时期进行了超氧化物歧化酶、过氧化物酶、多酚氧化酶活性的比较研究。结果表明,谷子感染黑穗病后,体内超氧化物歧化酶、过氧化物酶、多酚氧化酶活性均显著增强。抗病品种的酶活性明显地高于感病品种。这些酶活性的变化能够削弱或消除病菌对谷子的毒害作用,在谷子抗黑穗病过程中发挥重要作用。

小麦-大麦2H异代换系的鉴定

通过基因组原位杂交、重双端体测交及RFLP分析,解析了来自小麦品种"中国春"(Triticum aestivumL.cv."Chinese Spring"(CS))×大麦品种"Betzes"(Hordeum vulgare L.cv."Betzes")杂种后代15份材料的遗传组成,鉴定出6个二体异代换系;对与"中国春"重双端体DDT2A、DDT2B及DDT2D测交的F1代花粉母细胞减数分裂中期染色体构型进行观察,同时以小麦第二部分同源群短臂探针psr131进行RFLP分析,鉴定出一套遗传稳定的小麦-大麦2H二体异代换系2H(A)、2H(B)和2H(D).小麦第二部分同源群短臂探针psr131可作为追踪大麦2H染色体的RFLP标记.从代换系的生长势及其他农艺性状看,大麦2H染色体对小麦染色体2B和2D的补偿作用较好.通过考种观察到携带大麦α淀粉酶抑制蛋白基因的2H染色体导入小麦后,淀粉品质发生了改变,外观品质由原来"中国春"的半粉质转变为代换系的半角质.

Abnormalities Occurring during Female Gametophyte Development Result in the Diversity of Abnormal Embryo Sacs and Leads to Abnormal Fertilization in indicaljaponica Hybrids in Rice

Embryo sac abortion is one of the major reasons for sterility in indicaljaponica hybrids in rice. To clarify the causal mechanism of embryo sac abortion, we studied the female gametophyte development in two indicaljaponica hybrids via an eosin B staining procedure for embryo sac scanning using confocal laser scanning microscope. Different types of abnormalities occurred during megasporogenesis and megagametogenesis were demonstrated. The earliest abnormality was observed in the megasporocyte. A lot of the chalazal-most megaspores were degenerated before the mono-nucleate embryo sac stage. Disordered positioning of nucleus and abnormal nucellus tissue were characteristics of the abnormal female gametes from the mono-nucleate to four-nucleate embryo sac stages. The abnormalities that occurred from the early stage of the eight-nucleate embryo sac development to the mature embryo sac stage were characterized by smaller sizes and wrinkled antipodals. Asynchronous nuclear migration, abnormal positioning of nucleus, and degeneration of egg apparatus were also found at the eight-nucleate embryo sac stage. The abnormalities that occurred during female gametophyte development resulted in five major types of abnormal embryo sacs. These abnormal embryo sacs led to abnormal fertilization. Hand pollination using normal pollens on the spikelets during anthesis showed that normal pollens could not exclude the effect of abnormal embryo sac on seed setting.     

Construction and Application of Efficient Ac-Ds Transposon Tagging Vectors in Rice

Transposons are effective mutagens alternative to T-DNA for the generation of insertional mutants in many plant species including those whose transformation is inefficient. The current strategies of transposon tagging are usually slow and labor-intensive and yield low frequency of tagged lines. We have constructed a series of transposon tagging vectors based on three approaches： （i） AcTPase controlled by glucocorticoid binding domain/VP16 acidic activation domain/Gal4 DNA-binding domain （GVG） chemical-inducible expression system; （ii） deletion of AcTPase via Cre-lox site-specific recombination that was initially triggered by Ds excision; and （iii） suppression of early transposition events in transformed rice callus through a dual-functional hygromycin resistance gene in a novel Ds element （HPT-Ds）, We tested these vectors in transgenic rice and characterized the transposition events. Our results showed that these vectors are useful resources for functional genomics of rice and other crop plants. The vectors are freely available for the community,     

The Role of Viral Infection in Inducing Variability in Virus-Free Progeny in Tomato

The effect of virus-host interactions on subsequent generations is poorly understood. The evaluation of the effects of viral infection on inheritance of quantitative traits in the progeny of infected plants and elucidation of a possible relationship between chiasma frequency in the infected plants and variability of traits in the progeny were investigated. The current study involved genotypes of four intraspecific hybrids of tomato （Solanum lycopersicum L.）, their parental forms and two additional cultivars. Used as infection were the tobacco mosaic virus （TMV） and potato virus X （PVX）. The consequences of the effect of viral infection were evaluated based on chromosome pairing in diakinesis and/or by examining quantitative and qualitative traits in the progeny of the infected tomato plants. Tomato plants infected with TMV ＋ PVX were found to differ in chiasma frequency per pollen mother cell or per bivalent. Deviations have been observed for genotypes of both F1 hybrids and cultivars. At the same time, differences in mean values of the traits under study have only been found for progeny populations （F2-F4） derived from virus-infected F1 hybrids, but not in the case of progeny of the infected cultivars. The rate of recombinants combining traits of both parents increased significantly （2.22-8.24 times） in progeny populations of hybrids infected with TMV＋PVX. The above suggests that the observed effects could be the result of modification of recombination frequencies that can be manifested in heterozygous hybrids and make small contributions to variability in cases of ＇homozygous＇ tomato genotypes （i.e. cultivars）.     

205国道两侧农田土壤和水稻叶片及糙米中重金属含量的空间分布特征

对205国道无林带典型路段东西两侧200 m范围内的农田表层土壤、稻(Oryza sativa L. )叶及糙米中Al、Cd、Cr、Cu、Fe、Ni、Pb、Zn和As的含量及空间分布规律进行了分析研究.结果表明,205国道两侧农田表层土壤中Cd、Cr、Cu、Ni、Pb和Zn的含量达到土壤环境质量一级标准(GB15618-1995),As含量超过土壤环境质量三级标准.西侧表层土壤中的Al、Cr、Fe、Ni、Zn和As含量,稻叶中的Al、Cd、Cr、Fe和Ni含量及糙米中的Al、Cd、Cr、Cu、Fe和Ni含量均比东侧高,表明路西侧受汽车尾气扩散沉降影响比东侧明显,并与该路段主风向为偏东风有关;西侧表层土壤中的Ni和Zn含量及东侧表层土壤中的Cd含量、西侧稻叶中的Al和Zn含量、西侧糙米中的Fe含量和东侧糙米中的Al含量均有随路侧距离增加而显著递减的规律,负相关关系显著或极显著;稻叶和糙米中某些重金属的含量有明显的峰值区域,均位于路侧10～20 m区域内,并与土壤中的含量有显著或极显著的正相关关系;在糙米中未检出As,且Al、Cd、Cr、Cu和Zn含量均未超出国家食品卫生标准,但部分样本Ni和Pb含量略有超标.主成分分析结果显示,稻叶中的Pb主要来源于土壤,而稻叶中其他重金属含量明显受到公路环境污染物扩散沉降影响.研究结果显示,重金属元素已在205国道两侧的农田表层土壤中显著累积,其中As的积累最严重;稻叶和糙米中重金属的含量水平明显受到公路汽车尾气扩散沉降的影响,且扩散沉降集中在距离公路边缘10～20 m的区域内.
