黑胸大蠊（Periplaneta fuliginosa）病毒的分离及某些特性

从黑胸大蠊(Periplaneta fuliginosa)自然罹病的虫尸中分离得到一株非包涵体病毒。将病毒悬液均匀拌入无菌饲料并供食154～169日龄黑胸大蠊健康若虫时,能使其感染、发病,死亡率可达98％以上。在电子显微镜下观察时,病毒为球形二十面体颗粒,直径约23nm。病毒悬液具有典型核蛋白紫外吸收光谱。病毒用DNase和RNase处理并经吖啶橙染色、二苯胺和苔黑酚试验及甲醛反应证明:该病毒含有单链DNA。以上特性与细小病毒科的特征有点类似。     

大蒜病毒检测用抗血清制备的研究

双拷贝人α型心钠素基因的组建及大肠杆菌分泌型克隆与表达

将单拷贝人α心钠素基因3′端用Ban Ⅱ酶解除去包括终止密码在内的36个碱基对,代之以人工合成的含Glu-Lys-Phe-Glu连接片段与另一单拷贝人α心钠素基因的5′端串连成编码60肽的双拷贝心钠素基因,克隆于大肠杆菌分泌型表达载体pIN-Ⅲ-OmpA_2质粒中,表达生成60肽的双拷贝人α型心钠素衍生物,在信号肽的作用下分泌至胞膜间质并自动切割为60肽的外源基因产物。分子量约8K的表达产物用分子筛或超滤膜分离后再经HPLC纯化,表达产物具有明显的心钠素放免活性和舒张血管活性。

Hydroxamic acids affecting barley yellow dwarf virus transmission by the aphid Rhopalosiphum padi

2,4-Dihydroxy-7-methoxy-1,4-benzoxazin-3-one (DIMBOA), a hydroxamic acid (Hx) occurring in wheat, was shown to deter feeding by the aphid Rhopalosiphum padi (L.), and to reduce BYDV transmission to the plant. Dual choice tests with wheat leaves showed the preferential settlement of aphids on leaves with lower levels of DIMBOA. Electric monitoring of aphid feeding behaviour showed that in seedlings with higher DIMBOA levels fewer aphids reached the phloem and they needed longer times to contact a phloem vessel than in those with lower levels. When aphids carrying BYDV were allowed to feed on wheat cultivars with different DIMBOA levels, fewer plants were infected with BYDV in the higher DIMBOA cultivars than in the lower ones. Preliminary field experiments showed a tendency for wheat cultivars with higher Hx levels to be more tolerant to infection by BYDV than lower Hx level ones.     

Molecular structure of the Japanese hepatitis C viral genome

The amino acid sequence of the polyprotein deduced from the nucleotide sequence of the Japanese hepatitis C virus genome (N. Kato et. al. (1990) Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA 87, 9524–9528)indicated that this virus is a member of a new class of positive-stranded RNA viruses. Several domains of this polyprotein also showed weak homology with those of flaviviruses and pestiviruses including the chymotrypsin-like serine proteinase. NTPase and RNA-dependent RNA polymerase     

Mapping of the seed storage protein locus Sec-2 in rye

The segregation of the 75K gamma secalin locus (Sec-2) in combination with five interchanges (reciprocal translocations) and two marker genes was analyzed. The translocations involved chromosome arms 1RL, 1RS, 2RL, 2RS, 4RL, 5RL, 5RS, 6RL and 6RS. The gene loci were both on 2R, but the arm was not known. Although the Sec-2 locus was expected to be on chromosome 2RS, no linkage between Sec-2 and any of the markers was found. This is concluded to be the result of exceptionally frequent recombination between Sec-2 and the break point of one of the translocations, which is the only marker in 2RS.     

ph1b基因在Aegilops有益基因直接遗传转移中利用的可能性

第一次用中国春和中国春ph1b突变体对(中国春phlb突变体×Ae.uariabilis)F_1和(中国春ph1b突变体×Ae.turcomenica)F_1回交获得了成功,并通过连续回交,把Ae.turcomenica的抗白粉基因转移到了普通小麦中。证实了利用ph1b基因从山羊草属的一些种“直接遗传转移”有益基因到普通小麦中的可能性。
