为推动植物源杀螨剂的研发进程,采用玻片浸渍法测定40种植物丙酮提取物对朱砂叶螨（Tetranychus cinnabrinus）雌成螨的毒杀活性,以期发现具开发潜力的植物资源。结果表明,沙茴香（Ferula bungeana）、盐肤木（Rhus chinensis）、黄连木（Pistacia chinensis）、紫丁香（Syringa oblata）和南方六道木（Abelia dielsii）等5种植物丙酮提取物对朱砂叶螨的毒杀活性较好;毒力测定表明,沙茴香和盐肤木丙酮提取物对朱砂叶螨的毒杀活性最好,LC₅₀分别为0.08 g·mL^-1和0.09 g·mL^-1。可见,沙茴香和盐肤木可作为植物源杀螨剂研发的候选材料,值得进一步研究。

盾负泥虫的食性研究

鸣跖草Ｃｏｍｍｅｌｉｎａ ｃｏｍｍｕｎｉｓ Ｌ．是顽固性杂草。质负泥虫Ｌｅｍａ ｓｃｕｔｅｌｌａｒｉｓ １年发生１代,以成虫滞育。用与鸭跖草同科及近缘科、属的植物对其食性进行测定,结果发现其食性单一,只取食鸭跖草,质负泥虫的发生期与鸭跖草的苗期同步,幼虫的喜食与鸭跖草的多分枝特性相吻合,取食营养位与粘液细胞在鸭跖草植株上的分布及细胞的含糖量关系密切。     

Comparison of Some Characteristics Between Phragmites communis and Its Salt Tolerant Variant

R5002-12, a salt tolerant line of Phragmites communis Trin., which was obtained from ethyl methane sulfonate (EMS) treated callus selected under saline stress, was compared with its wild line in respect to their molecular biological, physiological and biochemical characterizations. Five arbitrary primers were screened which showed differences in DNA amplified polymorphism between the variant and its wild line. Some new proteins appeared in the salt tolerant plant under salt stress. Electrophoresis of peroxidase and esterase also showed some differences in isozyme expression between them. The chlorophyll content of the variant was higher than that of the original variety, whether the plants were under salt stress or not.     

不同放牧率下羊草和芦苇可溶性碳水化合物和氮素含量的变化

在松嫩草原羊草草地上通过小区围栏放牧,对不同放牧率下羊草和芦苇可溶性碳水化合物和氮素含量的变化进行了分析。结果表明,羊草和芦苇在生长季初期茎基部的可溶性碳水化合物含量最低,分别为7．12％和3．95％,随着季节推移逐渐增加;叶片可溶性碳水化合物含量随季节推移的变化不大;羊草返青比芦苇早,从而造成5月份实验开始时两种禾草茎基部和叶片可溶性碳水化合物的差异;一定程度的放牧(本实验条件下为P4和P5小区)有利于牧草可溶性碳水化合物的提高,促进牧草再生氮素含量在生长季初期最大,随季节推移逐渐降低,与其物候期相一致;适当放牧能够刺激根对土壤中氮素的吸收,使其向地上部分转移,提高牧草的营养价值。

芦苇胚性愈伤组织的形成及植株的再生

以芦苇种子为外植体,其愈伤组织的诱导率最高。叶鞘和叶片不发生脱分化。培养基中最合适的蔗糖浓度为4%。维生素 B 类、肌醇对愈伤组织的生长起促进作用。而酵母提取物对愈伤组织的诱导和生长具有明显的抑制作用。这种抑制效应,将随酵母提取物浓度的提高而增大。愈伤组织的继代培养,随培养基中2,4-D 浓度的提高,其平均鲜重明显降低。脱分化培养基中2,4-D 浓度对胚性愈伤组织的诱导形成具有一定的相关性。胚性愈伤组织经30代继代培养依然具有90%的分化频率,只是每块愈伤组织的分化苗数减少。反之,非胚性愈伤组织则完全丧失形态发生的能力。对两类愈伤组织进行扫描电镜的观察,发现其表面结构有很大差异。其过氧化物酶、酯酶同工酶谱以及可溶性蛋白的含量均有明显的差别。     

Foliar application of nitrate or ammonium as sole nitrogen supply in Ricinus communis. II. The flows of cations, chloride and abscisic acid

Following a precultivation with pedospheric nitrogen nutrition, Ricinus plants were supplied with nitrogen solely by spraying nitrate or ammonium solution onto the leaves during the experimental period. The chemical composition of tissues, xylem and phloem exudates was determined and on the basis of the previously determined nitrogen flows (Peuke et al., New Phytologist (1998), 138 , 657–687) the flows of potassium, sodium, magnesium, calcium, chloride and ABA were modelled. These data, which permit quantification of net-uptake, transport in xylem and phloem, and utilization in shoot and root, were compared with results obtained in plants with pedospherically-supplied nitrate or ammonium and data in the literature. Although the overall effects on the chemical composition of supplying ammonium to the leaves were not as pronounced as in pedospherically supplied plants, there were some typical responses of plants fed with ammonium (ammonium syndrome). In particular, in ammonium-sprayed plants uptake and transport of magnesium decreased and chloride uptake was increased compared with nitrate-sprayed plants. Furthermore, acropetal ABA transport in the xylem in ammonium-sprayed Ricinus was threefold higher than in nitrate-sprayed plants. Additionally, concentrations of anions were more or less increased in tissues, particularly in the roots, and transport fluids. The overall signal from ammonium-sprayed leaves without a direct effect of ammonium ions on uptake and transport systems in the root is discussed.     

A reassessment of the intervention of calmodulin in the regulation of stomatal movement

Commelina cammunis L., a monocotyledonous plant whose stomata are highly sensitive to calcium ions, was used to study calmodulin (CaM) involvement in stomatal movements. CaM was detected and quantified in guard cell and mesophyll cell protoplasts by western blot and by ⁴⁵Ca²⁺-overlays. CaM was found to be 3- to 7-fold more abundant on a per protein basis in guard cell than in mesophyll cell protoplasts. Numerous guard cell proteins that bind CaM in a Ca²⁺-dependent manner were detected by gold-labelled CaM overlays. Using bioassays with epidermal strips, different CaM-antagonists were found to induce a net stimulation of stomatal opening in darkness or under illumination (trifluoperazine > compound 48/80 ∼ fluphenazine > W7 > W5). As CaM is frequently involved in the regulation of phosphorylation processes, the effects of different inhibitors of protein kinases on stomatal movements were studied. In red plus blue light, a promotion of the stomatal aperture was observed in the nanomolar range with K252a and KT5926 and in the micromolar range with KT5720 ≫ ML7 ∼ ML9 ≫ H7 > KN62. Only the inhibitors with a high specificity for Ca²⁺-CaM dependent protein kinases (K252a, KT5926, ML7, ML9) triggered a stomatal opening in darkness and increased stomatal aperture in red plus blue light. Taken together, these data strongly suggest that a Ca²⁺- or a Ca²⁺-CaM-dependent protein kinase plays a central role in the calcium transduction pathway leading to the maintaining of stomatal closure.     

Bioassays on selection and feeding responses of Holotrichia oblita adults to different plant species

Bioassays on selection and feeding responses of Holotrichia oblita adults to different plant species were conducted both in laboratory and under field conditions. The selection response bioassay showed that the adults were significantly attracted to Ricinus communis. In paired tests of the field cages, more than 60% adults were attracted to R. communis plants, while only 35.55%, 34.45%, 33.35%, and 26.65% were attracted to plants of Glycine max, Arachis hypogaea, Ipomoea batatas, and Gossypium hirsutum, respectively. In the laboratory, the selection response percentage of the adults to R. communis leaves reached up to 93% in the presence of other host plant leaves and still arrived at 70% in the absence of other host plant leaves. Feeding deterrence bioassay showed that the adults preferred to I. batatas leaves with 229.90 ± 4.25 mg leaf consumption and 41.30 ± 5.19 mg faeces excretion after 12 h, followed by the leaves of G. hirsutum and A. hypogaea. The adult did not prefer leaves of R. communi with only 7.10 ± 0.23 mg leaf consumption and corresponding 4.00 ± 0.84 mg fecal excretion. In summary, all experimental results suggested that the attraction of H. oblita adults to R. communi is not triggered for feeding.
