Genetic Diversities of Cymbidium mosaic virus and Odontoglossum ringspot virus Isolates Based on the Coat Protein Genes from Orchids in Guangdong Province,China

Orchids are some of the most important ornamental flowers. Cymbidium mosaic virus (CymMV) and Odontoglossum ringspot virus (ORSV) are the most prevalent and economically important viruses affecting orchids in China. In this study, 20 CymMV and 28 ORSV isolates were selected for genetic diversity analysis. The CymMV isolates shared 84.6–100% and 89.5–100% identities of coat protein (CP) at the nucleotide (nt) and amino acid (aa) levels, respectively. The identities of ORSV isolates were 96.4–100% (nt) and 92.5–99.4% (aa). The CP genes of CymMV were found to have genetic diversity, and the CP genes of ORSV were genetically conservative. These results can aid in designing effective disease‐control strategies.     

Gene stacking in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Phalaenopsis</Emphasis> orchid enhances dual tolerance to pathogen attack

Cymbidium Mosaic Virus (CymMV) and Erwinia carotovora have been reported to cause severe damage to orchid plants. To enhance the resistance of orchids to both viral and bacterial phytopathogens, gene stacking was applied on Phalaenopsis orchid by double transformation. PLBs originally transformed with CymMV coat protein cDNA (CP) were then re-transformed with sweet pepper ferredoxin-like protein cDNA (Pflp) by Agrobacterium tumefaciens, to enable expression of dual (viral and bacterial) disease resistant traits. A non-antibiotic selection procedure in the second transformation minimized the potential rate of ‘stacking’ antibiotic genes in the orchid gene pool. Transgene integration in transgenic Phalaenopsis lines was confirmed by Southern blot analysis for both CP and pflp genes. Expression of transgenes was detected by northern blot analysis, and disease resistant assays revealed that transgenic lines exhibited enhanced resistance to CymMV and E. carotovora. This is the first report describing a transgenic Phalaenopsis orchid with dual resistance to phytopathogens.     

兰属腋花组若干种类的研究

对新种丽花兰Cymbidium concinnum Z. J. Liu &; S. C. Chen和新变种龙州兰C. eburneum var. longzhouense Z. J. Liu &; S. C. Chen进行了描述和绘图; 丽花兰与大雪兰C. mastersii Griff. ex Lindl.有亲缘关系, 区别点在于新种叶片先端不分裂, 花序具18-22朵花, 唇瓣中裂片上有一个V型的紫红色斑块; 龙州兰(变种)与独占春(原变种)的主要区别在于唇瓣中裂片上和侧裂片顶部有较密的紫红色斑。对象牙白C. maguanense的分类问题进行了讨论, 并为其指定了新模式; 还为腋花组sect. Eburnea国产种类提供一个检索表。     

春兰内生真菌的分离及其抑菌活性的初步研究

采用平板分离法从皖西大别山野生兰花的根、茎、叶中分离内生真菌32株,用琼脂块法对获取的菌株进行抑菌活性筛选,其中有4种兰花内生真菌对供试菌株有抑菌作用,占总分离菌株的12.50%,对抑菌活性较强的一株内生真菌进行形态学鉴定,结果表明它属于无孢类群。     

Cytokinins promotion of flowering in Cymbidium ensifolium var. misericors in vitro

Callus-derived rhizomes of Cymbidium ensifolium var. misericors produced flowers precociously on a defined basal medium (1/2MS) containing of NAA with thidiazuron (TDZ), N⁶-(2-isopentenyl) adenine (2iP) or N⁶-benzyladenine (BA) within 100 d of culturing. Among eight cytokinins tested, TDZ at 3.3–10 µM or 2iP at 10–33 µM combined with 1.5 µM NAA were the most effective combinations for achieving flower induction in vitro. These undersized flowers were physically normal and bloomed for two weeks in vitro.     

墨兰的解剖学研究

运用石蜡切片法和扫描电镜技术,对墨兰营养器官和生殖器官进行了研究。结果表明墨兰叶片表面具较厚的角质层。气孔多为四轮列型,分布在下表皮,叶肉没有海绵组织和栅栏组织的分化,但叶尖部和叶中部中脉附近的叶肉细胞常伸长,类似栅栏组织细胞,平行脉,外韧型维管束,在假鳞茎中,维管束散生在基本组织中,根具根被,皮层和维管柱三部分,花被各部分基本结构均相似,唇瓣和合蕊柱的表皮为腺表皮,具花柱道,三心皮雌蕊,一室,侧膜胎座,四合花粉,表面无纹饰,蒴果。     

兰属春剑叶艺突变体叶片结构的研究

以兰属春剑(Cymbidium tortisepalum Fukuy.var.longibracteatum)叶色突变体‘隆昌素’及其亲本为材料,采用石蜡切片、扫描电镜及透射电镜对叶片的组织结构、扫描结构和超微结构进行了观察。结果显示,春剑叶色突变体叶片的表皮厚度和叶肉细胞面积均大于亲本,但导管数量少于亲本;叶片上、下表皮纹饰与亲本具有明显差异;气孔密度和面积均小于亲本,且气孔闭合度较大,占总气孔数的56%;突变体的叶绿体呈高密度的囊泡状结构,内部严重解体,体积较小的嗜锇滴聚集分布,无基粒片层,无淀粉粒。本研究表明经组培诱变的春剑叶色突变体的叶片结构与亲本存在明显差异。
