柔嫩艾美耳球虫(Eimeria tenella)早熟株与亲本株致病性和繁殖力的研究

通过对经15代选育的柔嫩艾美耳球虫(E. tenella)山西株的早熟株与其亲本株的繁殖力和致病性进行比较研究,证实早熟株的潜隐期比亲本株缩短21 h,繁殖力下降40%左右;对致病性的研究显示,早熟株感染后对鸡只增重、AC I的影响较小,对11日龄雏鸡的半数感染量和半数致死量较亲本株增大,肠道病变记分较亲本株下降。由此认为,该早熟株符合球虫早熟株的特性,可用于鸡球虫病早熟苗的制作。     

紫稻细胞质雄性不育系叶片全蛋白双向电泳分析

通过对几种不育系叶片全蛋白双向电泳图谱分析证明;紫稻不育系具有不同于野败型,红莲型和马协型不育系的蛋白图谱,说明其可能是一种新的细胞质质源,同时,紫稻不育系与保持系蛋白图谱之间在三叶期和分蘖期时差异均不明显,但各材料本身蛋白图谱在两个不同时期之间差异很大,不育系与保持系图谱表现出的蛋白质（多肽）的差异,可能与不育系雄性不育有关。

从人肺 cDNA 文库中克隆到人类β 3- 半乳糖基转移酶家族中的一个新成员β 3GalT7 (AY277592 , EC2.4.1.-) ,并对其进行了鉴定 . 该基因定位在人类染色体 19q13.2. 它包含一个 1 191 bp 的开放阅读框 (ORF). 编码的蛋白质包括一个信号肽和一个半乳糖基转移酶结构域,分子质量和等电点分别为 43.3 ku 和 8.37. 从原核表达中获得的融合蛋白的分子质量和预测相符 . RNA 印迹杂交显示β 3GalT7 在肺、喉和回肠组织中高表达,而在舌、乳房、子宫、睾丸等组织中表达较低 . 此外半定量 RT-PCR 显示β 3GalT7 在人类不同的肿瘤细胞中转录水平有明显差异 .     

将大赖草种质转移给普通小麦的研究——Ⅶ.一个普通小麦-大赖草等臂染色体异附加系的选育与鉴定

通过花粉母细胞减数分裂中期Ⅰ染色体配对构型分析、Giemsa C-分带,从普通小麦-大赖草第7条染色体二体异附加系自交后代中选育并鉴定出了93G51-9和93G52-8 2个等臂染色体异附加系。该异附加系在花粉母细胞减数分裂中期Ⅰ,其等臂染色体自身两臂配对频率高,染色体易发生断裂,且又携带有较抗赤霉病的基因,是向小麦转移大赖草赤霉病抗性基因的有用中间材料。     

Aberrant,ectopic expression of VEGF and VEGF receptors 1 and 2 in malignant colonic epithelial cells. Implications for these cells growth via an autocrine mechanism

Vascular endothelial growth factor A (referred to as VEGF) is implicated in colon cancer growth. Currently, the main accepted mechanism by which VEGF promotes colon cancer growth is via the stimulation of angiogenesis, which was originally postulated by late Judah Folkman. However, the cellular source of VEGF in colon cancer tissue; and, the expression of VEGF and its receptors VEGF-R1 and VEGF-R2 in colon cancer cells are not fully known and are subjects of controversy.     

Establishment and characterization of a unique 1 μm diameter liver-derived progenitor cell line

Liver-derived progenitor cells (LDPCs) are recently identified novel stem/progenitor cells from healthy, unmanipulated adult rat livers. They are distinct from other known liver stem/progenitor cells such as the oval cells. In this study, we have generated a LDPC cell line RA1 by overexpressing the simian virus 40 (SV40) large T antigen (TAg) in primary LDPCs. This cell line was propagated continuously for 55 passages in culture, after which it became senescent. Interestingly, following transformation with SV40 TAg, LDPCs decreased in size significantly and the propagating cells measured 1 μm in diameter. RA1 cells proliferated in vitro with a doubling time of 5-7 days, and expressed cell surface markers of LDPCs. In this report, we describe the characterization of this novel progenitor cell line that might serve as a valuable model to study liver cell functions and stem cell origin of liver cancers.     

Meta‐population structure and the evolutionary transition to multicellularity

The evolutionary transition to multicellularity has occurred on numerous occasions, but transitions to complex life forms are rare. Here, using experimental bacterial populations as proxies for nascent multicellular organisms, we manipulate ecological factors shaping the evolution of groups. Groups were propagated under regimes requiring reproduction via a life cycle replete with developmental and dispersal (propagule) phases, but in one treatment lineages never mixed, whereas in a second treatment, cells from different lineages experienced intense competition during the dispersal phase. The latter treatment favoured traits promoting cell growth at the expense of traits underlying group fitness – a finding that is supported by results from a mathematical model. Our results show that the transition to multicellularity benefits from ecological conditions that maintain discreteness not just of the group (soma) phase, but also of the dispersal (germline) phase.

基于CSSL的水稻抽穗期QTL定位及遗传分析

抽穗期是水稻（Oryza sativa）品种的重要农艺性状之一,适宜的抽穗期是获得理想产量的前提。鉴定和定位水稻抽穗期基因/QTL,分析其遗传效应对改良水稻抽穗期至关重要。以籼稻品种9311（Oryzasativa ssp.indica‘Yangdao 6’）为受体,粳稻品种日本晴（Oryza sativa ssp.japonica‘Nipponbare’）为供体构建的94个染色体片段置换系群体为材料,以P≤0.01为阈值,对置换片段上的抽穗期QTL进行了鉴定。采用代换作图法共定位了4个控制水稻抽穗期的QTL,分别位于第3、第4、第5和第8染色体;QTL的加性效应值变化范围为–6.4––2.7,加性效应百分率变化范围为–6.4%––2.7%;qHD-3和qHD-8加性效应值较大,表现主效基因特征。为了进一步定位qHD-3和qHD-8,在目标区域加密16对SSR引物,qHD-3和qHD-8分别被界定在第3染色体RM3166–RM16206之间及第8染色体RM4085–RM8271之间,其遗传距离分别为13.9cM和6.4cM。研究结果为利用分子标记辅助选择改良水稻抽穗期奠定了基础。
