The biocontrol properties of Trichoderma species are well documented, but their effectiveness in antagonism of the problematic Sclerotium cepivorum, the causal agent of white rot in Allium species, appears limited with reports of significant control only relating to deliberately-mutated strains of Trichoderma. Our previous studies have indicated the possibility of using selected naturally-occurring strains of the antagonist in the suppression of other diseases; now in vitro and controlled environment in vivo studies have indicated that a degree of control of Onion White Rot is possible, and that the selected antagonist strains can be used in integrated treatments with Iprodione to good effect. The possible value of such treatments is considered in light of other approaches to the suppression of this continuing problem. 相似文献

To elucidate the mode of action of dominant mutant connexins in causing inherited skin diseases, transgenic mice were produced that express the true Vohwinkel syndrome-associated mutant Cx26 (D66H), from a keratin 10 promoter, specifically in the suprabasal epidermal keratinocytes. Following birth, the transgenic mice developed keratoderma similar to that of human carriers of Cx26 (D66H). Expression of the transgene resulted in a loss of Cx26 and Cx30 at intercellular junctions of epidermal keratinocytes and accumulation of these connexins in the cytoplasm. Injection of primary mouse keratinocytes with Lucifer Yellow showed no difference in terms of dye spreading between transgenic and non transgenic keratinocytes in vitro. Expression of the mutant Cx26 (D66H) did not interfere with the formation of the epidermal water barrier during late embryonic development. Attempts to produce transgenic mice expressing the wild type form of Cx26 from the K10 promoter failed to produce viable animals although transgenic embryos were recovered at days 9 and 12 of gestation, suggesting that the transgene might be embryonic lethal. 相似文献

Erythrocytes (red blood cells) are a major source of response variation in biosensor electrodes expected to operate in whole blood. Such a blood-to-plasma difference (hematocrit effect) must be minimized for those sensors directed towards the hospital market where wide variations in hematocrit can be seen. Typically, many current glucose sensors demonstrate a decreasing response to the analyte in the presence of increasing hematocrit levels. A sensor electrode for glucose is described which displays a reduced sensitivity to changes in hematocrit. The working electrode comprises a base porous conducting carbon layer, which is impregnated with a mixture including glucose oxidase and a ferrocene redox mediator. The base carbon layer has a void volume of 50%, an average pore diameter of less than 0.1 microm and a thickness of about 20 microm. The interior void volume of the base carbon layer is filled entirely with a substantial proportion of the impregnating mixture such that very little remains on the exterior. The resulting impregnated porous electrode excludes erythrocytes and is consequently capable of operating acceptably in venous, capillary, arterial and neonatal blood over a wide hematocrit range of 20-70%. 相似文献

The synthesis of a novel amidine-linked analogue 1 of the phenyl-containing congener 2 of distamycin A and its DNA binding properties are described. The amidine group in 1 improves its water solubility while retaining the minor groove and AT sequence binding selectively.A phenyl-containing and amidine-linked analogue 1 of distamycin A has improved water solubility while retaining the minor groove and AT sequence binding selectivity to DNA. 相似文献

In many ant–plant mutualisms, ants establish colonies in hollow thorns, leaf pouches, or other specialized structures on their host plants, which they then defend from herbivores. Resource heterogeneity could affect the maintenance of these mutualisms if it leads to one or both partners altering their investment in the interaction. Such a phenomenon may be especially pertinent to the Acacia–ant mutualism found in East African savannas, where termite mounds have a profound effect on the spatial structuring of resources used by both plants and ants. Here, we examined whether the proximity to termite mounds of Acacia drepanolobium trees is associated with variation in the behavior of one of their ant associates, Crematogaster nigriceps. We found that ant colonies near termite mounds had decreased aggressive responses to simulated herbivory as well as increased off‐tree movement. We hypothesize that these changes are the result of resident ant colonies near termite mounds shifting investment from defense of their host plant to foraging for nearby resources. 相似文献

Utility of the white gene in estimating phylogenetic relationships among mosquitoes (Diptera: Culicidae) 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
The utility of a nuclear protein-coding gene for reconstructing
phylogenetic relationships within the family Culicidae was explored.
Relationships among 13 species representing three subfamilies and nine
genera of Culicidae were analyzed using a 762-bp fragment of coding
sequence from the eye color gene, white. Outgroups for the study were two
species from the sister group Chaoboridae. Sequences were determined from
clone PCR products amplified from genomic DNA, and aligned following
conceptual intron splicing and amino acid translation. Third codon
positions were characterized by high levels of divergence and biased
nucleotide composition, the intensity and direction of which varied among
taxa. Equal weighting of all characters resulted in parsimony and
neighboring-joining trees at odds with the generally accepted phylogenetic
hypothesis based on morphology and rDNA sequences. The application of
differential weighting schemes recovered the traditional hypothesis, in
which the subfamily Anophelinae formed the basal clade. The subfamily
Toxorhynchitinae occupied an intermediate position, and was a sister group
to the subfamily Culicinae. Within Culicinae, the genera Sabethes and
Tripteroides formed an ancestral clade, while the Culex-Deinocerites and
Aedes- Haemagogus clades occupied increasingly derived positions in the
molecular phylogeny. An intron present in the Culicinae- Toxorhynchitinae
lineage and one outgroup taxon was absent in the basal Anophelinae lineage
and the second outgroup taxon, suggesting that intron insertions or
deletions may not always be reliable systematic characters.
