Interspecific relationships of Caragana microphylla,C. davazamcii and C. korshinskii (Leguminosae) based on ITS and trnL-F data sets

The taxonomic treatment of Caragana davazamcii Sancz. has been a controversial matter, as its relationship with C. microphylla Lam. and C. korshinskii Kom. is not clear. It was treated as an independent species, or a variety under C. microphylla or C. korshinskii. This study is to examine the interspecific relationship of these three species and the origin of C. davazamcii based on internal transcribed spacer (ITS) and non-coding region of chloroplast trnL-F, combined with morphological data and geographical distribution. The trnL-F sequence of C. davazamcii is identical to that of C. microphylla but differs distinctly from that of C. korshinskii. The high congruence of ITS copies through both direct and cloning sequencing rejects the recent hybridization hypothesis of C. davazamcii between C. microphylla and C. korshinskii. In contrast, two different ITS sequence copies were found respectively in each individual of C. microphylla and C. korshinskii. One of the two ITS sequences in C. microphylla is identical to that of C. davazamcii. This result indicates that C. davazamcii might have taken part in the hybridization of C. microphylla as one parent , or that extensive gene flow might have occurred between these two species, thus resulting in the morphological similarity of them. However, the similarity of some morphological characters of C. davazamcii to those of C. korshinskii might result from the convergent adaptation to their common ecological environment.     

甘薯愈伤组织中的淀粉酶

从甘薯愈伤组织和块根可溶性提取物中淀粉酶的非变性凝胶电泳和活性染色发现 ,愈伤组织和块根的淀粉酶完全不同。前者有 4种不同大小的淀粉酶 (2种α 淀粉酶和 2种 β 淀粉酶 ) ,而后者只有一种 (β 淀粉酶 ) ;其次 ,块根 β 淀粉酶对EDTA和 β 巯基乙醇都不敏感 ,而愈伤组织的淀粉酶对EDTA和 β 巯基乙醇都敏感。这些结果表明甘薯愈伤组织中不仅淀粉酶同工酶的数量多 ,而且包括α和 β两种类型。     

Studies on Essential Oil trom Zanthoxylum avicennae, (Lam.) DC. and Its Antimildew Active

By means of rotatory belt fractional distillation, LC, HPLC, PGC and derivative methods, 27 compounds were separated from the essential oil which isolated from Zanthoxylum avicennae (Lam.) DC. by stream distillation. Twenty two of them were identified by the methods of IR, GC/IR,, 1H-NMR,18C-NMR, GC/MS/DS and the preparation of derivatives. Among them, 4-methyl-6-acetoxyhexanal was first found in nature. Fifteen compounds have been tested their antimildew activities. Citral, l-octanol, 4-methyl-6-acetoxyhexanal and linalool showed strong activities. The relationships between the structure of compounds of essential oil and their respective antimildew activities are also dealt with in this paper.

稃的有无对大赖草种子扩散与萌发特性的影响

对大赖草[Leymus racemosus（Lam．）Tzvel．]带稃种子和去稃种子的扩散性、萌发率、活力及吸水性和失水性的差异进行了比较。结果表明：在静止空气中带稃种子的降落速度显著小于去稃种子,分别为3．96和4．81m·s-1;而在风速1和4m·s-1的水平气流中带稃种子的扩散距离（15．26和11．86cm）均显著大于去稃种子（27．80和21．60cm）。培养20d后,带稃种子和去稃种子的萌发率分别为99％和97％,差异不显著;在自然条件及60℃高温条件下,带稃种子和去稃种子的活力无显著差异。带稃种子的吸水饱和时间和吸水量均显著大于去稃种子,而其失水速率小于后者但二者差异不显著。研究结果显示：稃对大赖草种子萌发和活力均无显著影响,但可增加种子的风媒扩散能力、有效保持种子含水量并能降低种子失水速率,对大赖草适应干旱的沙漠环境具有重要作用。     

An antitumor promoter from Moringa oleifera Lam.

In the course of studies on the isolation of bioactive compounds from Philippine plants, the seeds of Moringa oleifera Lam. were examined and from the ethanol extract were isolated the new O-ethyl-4-(α- -rhamnosyloxy)benzyl carbamate (1) together with seven known compounds, 4(α- -rhamnosyloxy)-benzyl isothiocyanate (2), niazimicin (3), niazirin (4), β-sitosterol (5), glycerol-1-(9-octadecanoate) (6), 3-O-(6′-O-oleoyl-β- -glucopyranosyl)-β-sitosterol (7), and β-sitosterol-3-O-β- -glucopyranoside (8). Four of the isolates (2, 3, 7, and 8), which were obtained in relatively good yields, were tested for their potential antitumor promoting activity using an in vitro assay which tested their inhibitory effects on Epstein–Barr virus-early antigen (EBV-EA) activation in Raji cells induced by the tumor promoter, 12-O-tetradecanoyl-phorbol-13-acetate (TPA). All the tested compounds showed inhibitory activity against EBV-EA activation, with compounds 2, 3 and 8 having shown very significant activities. Based on the in vitro results, niazimicin (3) was further subjected to in vivo test and found to have potent antitumor promoting activity in the two-stage carcinogenesis in mouse skin using 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene (DMBA) as initiator and TPA as tumor promoter. From these results, niazimicin (3) is proposed to be a potent chemo-preventive agent in chemical carcinogenesis.

Toolbox: Creating a systematic database of secretory pathway proteins uncovers new cargo for COPI

A third of yeast genes encode for proteins that function in the endomembrane system. However, the precise localization for many of these proteins is still uncertain. Here, we visualized a collection of ~500 N‐terminally, green fluorescent protein (GFP), tagged proteins of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. By co‐localizing them with 7 known markers of endomembrane compartments we determined the localization for over 200 of them. Using this approach, we create a systematic database of the various secretory compartments and identify several new residents. Focusing in, we now suggest that Lam5 resides in contact sites between the endoplasmic reticulum and the late Golgi. Additionally, analysis of interactions between the COPI coat and co‐localizing proteins from our screen identifies a subset of proteins that are COPI‐cargo. In summary, our approach defines the protein roster within each compartment enabling characterization of the physical and functional organization of the endomembrane system and its components.
