条锈病对小麦(Triticum aestivum L.)叶片光合功能及光合功能蛋白D1表达的影响

测定了小麦(Triticum aestivum L.)感染小麦条锈病后的光合常数,以及叶绿素含量、类囊体膜光合电子传递速率和光合反应中心D1蛋白的变化.实验显示,条锈病侵染导致感病小麦叶片净光合速率与叶绿素含量降低;抗病小麦经侵染后净光合速率却有恢复过程,叶绿素含量先降后升.此外,感病小麦叶片被侵染后全链电子传递速率受到抑制,PSII电子传递速率的变化与全链电子传递速率的变化趋势相似,但PSI电子传递速率受到的影响较小;抗病小麦小麦叶片被侵染后电子传递速率所受影响较小.同时发现,病程中,感病和抗病小麦PSII的光合反应中心D1蛋白含量变化总是与PSII电子传递速率的变化类似,推测D1蛋白的表达量变化是引起PSII电子传递活性与全链电子传递速率变化的主要因素之一.     

小麦高分子量谷蛋白亚基Glu-B1位点沉默基因的克隆与序列分析

二粒小麦（Triticum turgidum L．var．dicoccoides）具有极其丰富的遗传多样性,是栽培小麦品种改良的巨大基因库。在高分子量谷蛋白基因的组成上,它具有许多栽培小麦不存在的变异类型,在Glu—B1位点上的变异更大。我们利用种子贮藏蛋白的SDS—PAGE方法从原产于伊朗的二粒小麦材料PI94640中观察到缺失Glu—B1区的高分子量谷蛋白亚基。利用Glu-1Bx基因保守序列设计PCR引物,对该材料的总DNA扩增,获得了X型亚基编码基因（Glu-1Bxm）的全序列,其全长为3442bp含1070bp的启动子区。序列比较发现,Glu-1Bxm在启动子区序列与Glu—1Bx7的最为相似。而在基因编码区,我们发现Glu—1Bxm仅编码212个氨基酸,由于开放阅读框中起始密码子后第637位核苷酸发生了点突变,即编码谷酰胺的CAA突变为终止密码TAA,可能直接导致了该高分子量谷蛋白亚基的失活,这是我们在小麦Glu—B1位点基因沉默分子证据的首次报道。将Glu—1Bxm全序列与Glu—B1位点其他等位基因进行了系统树分析,发现Glu—1Bxm是较为古老的类型。本文还对该特异高分子量谷蛋白亚基变异类型对品质遗传改良研究的意义进行了讨论。     

根据R基因保守区分离小麦R基因类似序列

用根据核苷酸结合位点（nucleotide binding site,NBS)和丝氨酸／苏氨酸蛋白质激酶域设计的2对简并性引物,以小麦－簇毛麦6VS／6AL易位系的cDNA为模板进行PCR扩增,扩增产物克隆到pGEM-T载体中,经测序,共获得具有NBS结构域特征的片段克隆9个和具有丝氨酸／苏氨酸蛋白质激酶域特征的片段的克隆1个。将克隆之间核苷酸序列同源性高于90％的克隆归为一类,把9个NBS片段分为6类。这6类抗病基因类似序列（resistance gene analogs,PGA)均具有阅读框,并与已克隆的小麦抗条锈病基因γr、大麦抗白粉病基因Mla1和Mla6、拟南芥的抗病基因RPS2以及其他一些抗病基因在NBS保守区内具有高度的同源性。用小麦中国春缺体－四体初步将它们分别定位于小麦第一、第二和第五部分同源群上,进一步用5′－RACE技术获得RGA N5的5′端,发现期编码产物的N端还具有6个亮氨酸拉链（leucine zipper,LZ),与RPS2的N－端有较高同源性。     

The Association Between Leaf Malondialdehyde and Lignin Content and Resistance to Spot Blotch in Wheat

Spot blotch (causative pathogen Bipolaris sorokiniana (Sacc.) Shoem) is a common disease of wheat in the Eastern Gangetic Plains region of India. The association of leaf malondialdehyde and lignin contents with the severity of spot blotch disease was studied using a correlation analysis based on a population of recombinant inbred lines bred from the cross cvs. Yangmai 6 (resistant) × Sonalika (susceptible). The material was field‐tested over two consecutive years and inoculated artificially with a highly virulent strain of the pathogen. Disease severity was assessed at three growth stages around and after anthesis. Leaf lignin content tended to be higher in the more resistant RILs, while the opposite was the case for leaf malondialdehyde content. Lesion size showed a positive correlation with disease severity and leaf malondialdehyde content, while disease severity and leaf lignin content were negatively correlated with one another, as were leaf malondialdehyde and leaf lignin content. Leaf malondialdehyde and/or leaf lignin content could be informative as markers for selection for higher levels of resistance against spot blotch in wheat.     

Water and salt stress-induced alterations in proline metabolism of Triticum durum seedlings

Many plants accumulate proline as a non-toxic and protective osmolyte under saline or dry conditions. Its accumulation is caused by both the activation of its biosynthesis and inactivation of its degradation. We report here on the alterations induced by water and salt stress in the proline metabolism and amino acid content of 5-day-old seedlings of Triticum durum cv. Simeto. Most of the amino acids showed an increase with the induction of either stress, but proline increased more markedly than did other amino acids. We also measured the activities of two enzymes, Δ¹-pyrroline-5-carboxylate (P5C) reductase (EC 1.5.1.2) and proline dehydrogenase (EC 1.5.1.2), which are involved in proline biosynthesis and catabolism, respectively. The activity of P5C reductase was enhanced during both water and salt stress, while proline dehydrogenase was inhibited only during salt stress. The results indicate that synthesis de novo is the predominant mechanism in proline accumulation in durum wheat. Use of a cDNA clone that encodes P5C-reductase from Arabidopsis thaliana , showed no differences in the gene expression between controls and stressed plants, implying that the increase in enzyme activity is unrelated to the expression of this gene.     

人工海水胁迫下小麦芽期和苗期的耐盐性鉴定方法

本文采用不同浓度人工海水分别在小麦芽期和苗期进行胁迫处理,筛选不同时期、不同耐盐指标的适合处理浓度,并利用模糊数学隶属函数法计算各指标的隶属值,通过比较芽期、苗期各指标隶属值总平均值的大小来确定小麦品种耐盐性的强弱。建立了65%人工海水相对发芽率与40%人工海水相对芽长两指标相结合的小麦芽期耐盐性鉴定方法;以及在40%人工海水处理下综合株高增长量、根长增长量、地上部干重与地下部干重4个指标相对值的小麦苗期耐盐性鉴定方法。运用这两个鉴定方法可以有效地区分16个小麦品种在人工海水胁迫下的耐盐性差异。     

通用线性模型筛选家禽生化多态遗传标记的探讨

本研究首次采用线性模型估计生化基因(表)型对产蛋量相关性状的效应,排除环境和遗传背景的差异,检测出效应显著的3种生化基因(表)型。Akp座位F型和Es-1座位AB型的开产蛋重显著降低, 效应的遗传本质有待于深入研究确认。 Tf位点对于36周龄体重的影响不属于基因多效或紧密连锁效应, 可能是距离较远基因连锁的结果,效应随基因间连锁与交换会在品系和世代间产生较大波动;或可能源于非控制误差。本研究还表明生化基因座位与数量性状基因位点(QTL)间的非紧密基因连锁可能大量存在, 但育种意义不大。 Abstract:The literature on associations between biochemical polymorphisms with a Mendelian basis and quantitative traitsis abundant,but it is often difficult to draw conclusions from results that vary in statistical significance and that are sometimes conflicting.Linear models were found capable in estimating associated effects of biochemical genes,precluding deviations due to environmental and population differences.Three biochemical gene- or phenotypes were detected to be significantly associated with laying-related traits.F of Akp locus and AB of Es-1 locus showed large associated effects on egg weight at onset of lay as the result of pleiotrophy or close linkage,or caused by heterogeneity,whereas association of BB at Tf locus with body weight at 36 weeks of age could be due to loose linkage or non-controlled errors which exhibited large variations between populations and possibly through generations Many biochemical loci were also revealed to be occasionally associated with laying-related traits,but few of them could be of breeding importance.

普通小麦（Triticum aestvum L.）“济南177”原生质体和经紫外线照射的高冰草（Agropyton elongatum(Host)Nevski）原生质体（供体）用PEG法诱导融合,形成外形偏像小麦的不对称体细胞杂种植株及后代,F2代株系可分为3种类型：1.株型松散、大穗大粒;2.株型直立紧凑、分蘖多、中穗型;3.大穗大粒直立型。蛋白质含量明显优于亲本小麦,株系之间也存在显差异;采用微IEF／SDS－PAGE双向电泳技术分析杂种F2代植株旗叶及幼胚蛋白质组分可见,杂种不仅含有双亲的蛋白质组,而且还产生了特异的新蛋白;不同杂种株系间蛋白质组分差异明显。     

外源脱水应答转录因子DREB基因在转基因小麦中的诱导型表达与抗干旱生理效果研究

以冬小麦品种8901、5-98、99-92和104等品种的幼穗和幼胚为材料,用基因枪转化含逆境诱导转录因子DREB和bar基因的质粒pBAC128F（7024bp）。经筛选与植株再生,共获得70多个转基因小麦植株及其后代株系。转基因株系经PCR分析和RNA点杂交检测,结果表明外源转录因子DREB基因已稳定整合到转基因植株及其后代株系中,并且在部分后代株系中获得了表达。叶片脯氨酸含量测定表明,有16个转基因株系的脯氨酸含量与非转基因对照相比,增加相当显著,其中10个株系的脯氨酸含量在1100μg/g以上,比对照提高了2倍多。室内抗旱模拟实验表明,转基因株系停止浇水15d后,叶片仍然表现绿色,而对照叶片则失绿、枯干;复水10d后,转基因株系恢复活力,对照则死亡。研究表明,利用逆境诱导型启动子（rd29B）来增强外源DREB基因的表达,能显著改良小麦的抗旱性。     

Mechanism of durable resistance: a new approach

Summary Wheat genotypes, including backcross derivatives of Thatcher carrying Lr10 and Lr23, substitution lines for Lr10 and Lr23 in Chinese Spring background and Chinese Spring and Thatcher were analysed against 21 pathotypes of leaf rust in seedling tests. Adult plant responses in all these stocks were observed in the field nurseries under exposure to the inoculum of the Indian virulent races of leaf rust. The seedling data demonstrated that both the substitution lines and the backcross derivatives for each gene carry identical pattern of infection for resistance. The high level of adult plant resistance in the substitution lines, in contrast to the backcross derivatives in Thatcher, has been postulated to be due to the combination of resistance contributed by Lr10 and adult plant Chinese Spring resistance or to Lr23 and Chinese Spring adult plant resistance. It has been suggested that genes Lr10 and Lr23 added to the Chinese Spring background provide sources for durable resistance, since Chinese Spring has continued to provide a moderate level of adult plant resistance to leaf rust for a very long time.
