A wide-ranging examination of plastid (pt)DNA sequence homologies within
higher plant nuclear genomes (promiscuous DNA) was undertaken. Digestion
with methylation-sensitive restriction enzymes and Southern analysis was
used to distinguish plastid and nuclear DNA in order to assess the extent
of variability of promiscuous sequences within and between plant species.
Some species, such as Gossypium hirsutum (cotton), Nicotiana tabacum
(tobacco), and Chenopodium quinoa, showed homogenity of these sequences,
while intraspecific sequence variation was observed among different
cultivars of Pisum sativum (pea), Hordeum vulgare (barley), and Triticum
aestivum (wheat). Hypervariability of plastid sequence homologies was
identified in the nuclear genomes of Spinacea oleracea (spinach) and Beta
vulgaris (beet), in which individual plants were shown to possess a unique
spectrum of nuclear sequences with ptDNA homology. This hypervariability
apparently extended to somatic variation in B. vulgaris. No sequences with
ptDNA homology were identified by this method in the nuclear genome of
Arabidopsis thaliana.

The phylogeny of Greya Busck (Lepidoptera: Prodoxidae) was inferred from
nucleotide sequence variation across a 765-bp region in the cytochrome
oxidase I and II genes of the mitochondrial genome. Most parsimonious
relationships of 25 haplotypes from 16 Greya species and two outgroup
genera (Tetragma and Prodoxus) showed substantial congruence with the
species relationships indicated by morphological variation. Differences
between mitochondrial and morphological trees were found primarily in the
positions of two species, G. variabilis and G. pectinifera, and in the
branching order of the three major species groups in the genus. Conflicts
between the data sets were examined by comparing levels of homoplasy in
characters supporting alternative hypotheses. The phylogeny of Greya
species suggests that host-plant association at the family level and larval
feeding mode are conservative characters. Transition/transversion ratios
estimated by reconstruction of nucleotide substitutions on the phylogeny
had a range of 2.0-9.3, when different subsets of the phylogeny were used.
The decline of this ratio with the increase in maximum sequence divergence
among taxa indicates that transitions are masked by transversions along
deeper internodes or long branches of the phylogeny. Among transitions,
substitutions of A-->G and T-->C outnumbered their reciprocal
substitutions by 2-6 times, presumably because of the approximately 4:1
(77%) A+T-bias in nucleotide base composition. Of all transversions,
73%-80% were A<-->T substitutions, 85% of which occurred at third
positions of codons; these estimates did not decrease with an increase in
maximum sequence divergence of taxa included in the analysis. The high
frequency of A<-->T substitutions is either a reflection or an
explanation of the 92% A+T bias at third codon positions.

The GS60 antigen is one of the protective antigens of Mannheimia haemolytica A1. GS60 contains conserved domains belonging to the LppC family of bacterial outer membrane lipoproteins. A high antibody titer to GS60 has been shown to be significantly correlated with resistance to pneumonic pasteurellosis. Calves vaccinated with a commercial vaccine (Presponse) and demonstrating protection against M. haemolytica A1 produced antibodies directed against GS60. Alfalfa was chosen as the platform for an edible vaccine. Agrobacterium tumefaciens was used to mediate the transformation of alfalfa with sequences encoding a slightly shortened derivative of the GS60 antigen (GS60(54)). Stable transgenic alfalfa lines were recovered and production of GS60(54) was examined by Western immunoblot analysis. The antigen is stable in dried transgenic plant material stored at ambient temperature for more than a year. The plant-produced GS60(54) protein was shown to be immunogenic when injected into rabbits. Feeding of the dried transgenic alfalfa expressing the GS60(54) to rabbits is capable of inducing seroconversion, suggesting that GS60(54) could be an effective oral antigen for stimulating mucosal immune responses. 相似文献

In dogs and cats an assessment of renal function is often needed, however, existing methods including urine and plasma clearances are invasive, cumbersome and time consuming. This pilot study evaluated the feasibility of a transcutaneous glomerular filtration rate (GFR) measurement in dogs and cats. Additionally the optimal dose and location for the transcutaneous measurement device were investigated. Renal elimination of fluorescein-isothiocyanate-labelled sinistrin (FITC-S) was measured transcutaneously for 4 hours. The procedures were performed in awake, freely moving animals using escalating doses of FITC-S (10 mg/kg, 30 mg/kg, 50 mg/kg) with a wash-out period of at least 24 h in between. Multiple devices were placed on each animal. The resulting FITC-S disappearance curves were visually assessed to determine the most suitable location and the appropriate dose to reach an adequate transcutaneous peak signal for kinetic analysis. In both species 30 mg/kg were adequate for kinetic calculation. The most suitable place for the device was the lateral thoracic wall in dogs and the ventral abdominal wall in cats, respectively. Transcutaneous FITC-S clearance was then repeated using the optimal dose and location and in parallel with an additional plasma sinistrin clearance. Plasma elimination half-lives [min] were 26, 31 and 35, and corresponding transcutaneous elimination half-lives [min] were 26, 34 and 55, respectively in the dogs. Plasma elimination half-lives [min] were 51, 60 and 61, and corresponding transcutaneous elimination half-lives [min] were 75, 96 and 83, respectively in the cats. In conclusion, transcutaneous FITC-S clearance is a feasible method for the assessment of GFR in awake dogs and cats. It is noninvasive, well tolerated and easy to perform even in a clinical setting with results being readily available. A dose of 30 mg/kg of FITC-S seems adequate for kinetic assessment. Further studies are now needed to establish reference values and evaluate transcutaneous renal clearance in various conditions. 相似文献

A simple and rapid pea regeneration procedure was developed. An average of up to 20 shoots formed from hypocotyl explants of cvs. Sugar Ann and Patriot cultured on Murashige and Skoog basal medium supplemented with 0.5 or 1.0 M thidiazuron (N-phenyl-N-1,2,3-thiadiazol-5-ylurea). Hypocotyls of Puget and Sugar Daddy did not respond. Regenerated shoots rooted rapidly when cultured on Murashige and Skoog basal medium containing either 2.0 M -naphthaleneacetic acid or 1.0–2.0 M indole-3-butyric acid. Seeds were harvested from regenerated plants after only 9–11 weeks.Abbreviations BAP

In field and laboratory studies, mortality of African black beetle, Heteronychus arator, in the winter-rainfall, Mediterranean-type climate region of south-western Australia was higher in the late immature stages during summer than in the early immature stages that occur during spring, a contrast to summer-rainfall climatic regions. Greatest mortality occurred around the pupal stage in contrasting soil types, despite drying differences in summer and supplementary watering in some plots. Sampling of natural populations confirmed experimental results that mortality in late immature stages is the major factor limiting H. arator populations under a Mediterranean-type climate. Inter-generation increase in H. arator abundance was uncommon, explaining the consistent abundance typically observed between years in south-western Australia. Random dispersal of newly emerged adults in autumn was inferred to restore uniformity in adult abundance between areas of varying favourability for immature survival. 相似文献
