Summary Using a novel nonaqueous procedure, chloroplast DNA was isolated from 318 individual adult rice plants, representing 247 accessions and the breadth of the diversity in section Oryza of genus Oryza. Among them, 32 different cpDNA restriction patterns were distinguished using the restriction endonucleases EcoRI and AvaI, and they were further characterized by restriction with BamHI, HindIII, SmaI, PstI, and BstEII enzymes. The differences in the electrophoretic band patterns were parsimoniously interpreted as being the result of 110 mutations, including 47 restriction site mutations. The relationships between band patterns were studied by a cladistic analysis based on shared mutations and by the computation of genetic distances based on shared bands. The deduced relationships were compared with earlier taxonomical studies. The maternal parents for BC genome allotetraploids were deduced. Within species, cpDNA diversity was found larger in those species with an evolutionary history of recent introgression and/or allotetraploidization. Occasional paternal inheritance and recombination of cpDNA in rice was suggested. 相似文献
A molecular map has been constructed for the rice genome comprised of 726 markers (mainly restriction fragment length polymorphisms; RFLPs). The mapping population was derived from a backcross between cultivated rice, Oryza sativa, and its wild African relative, Oryza longistaminata. The very high level of polymorphism between these species, combined with the use of polymerase chain reaction-amplified cDNA libraries, contributed to mapping efficiency. A subset of the probes used in this study was previously used to construct an RFLP map derived from an inter subspecific cross, providing a basis for comparison of the two maps and of the relative mapping efficiencies in the two crosses. In addition to the previously described PstI genomic rice library, three cDNA libraries from rice (Oryza), oat (Avena) and barley (Hordeum) were used in this mapping project. Levels of polymorphism detected by each and the frequency of identifying heterologous sequences for use in rice mapping are discussed. Though strong reproductive barriers isolate O. sativa from O. longistaminata, the percentage of markers showing distorted segregation in this backcross population was not significantly different than that observed in an intraspecific F(2) population previously used for mapping. The map contains 1491 cM with an average interval size of 4.0 cM on the framework map, and 2.0 cM overall. A total of 238 markers from the previously described PstI genomic rice library, 250 markers from a cDNA library of rice (Oryza), 112 cDNA markers from oat (Avena), and 20 cDNA markers from a barley (Hordeum) library, two genomic clones from maize (Zea), 11 microsatellite markers, three telomere markers, eleven isozymes, 26 cloned genes, six RAPD, and 47 mutant phenotypes were used in this mapping project. Applications of a molecular map for plant improvement are discussed. 相似文献
Four methods for classifying cultivated rices (Oryza sativa L.) (including IR varieties) into indica and japonica types — waxy gene product in endosperm starch, glutelin 3 molecular weight in milled rice, RFLP polymorphism at the Wx locus and Glaszmann's isozyme method — were compared. On the basis of the two endosperm traits and the RFLP method Glaszmann's group 1 (indica) was classified as mainly indica and intermediate groups 2, 3 and 4 as exclusively indica. However, the endosperm traits classified Glaszmann's group 5 as mainly indica, while the RFLP method classified it as japonica. The RFLP waxy gene probe was closest to the isozyme method in classifying group 6 as japonicas; the waxy gene product gave mainly indica reaction even in group 6, and the glutelin 3 method was intermediate. All IR rices were classified as being indica on the basis of Wx gene product and by Glaszmann's method, but a few were classified as japonica by the glutelin 3 method and by the RFLP waxy gene probe. 相似文献
This study aims to understand the contribution of ‘terroir’ during the cultivation of Vitis vinifera L. The concept of terroir stems from the French ideal that a region’s soil and local vineyard topography together with a region’s macroclimate, including the mesoclimate and vine microclimate, together define the unique characteristics of a wine. In this current study we have utilized high performance liquid chromatography combined with a Q Exactive quadrupole Orbitrap™ mass analyzer for the direct injection analysis of Vitis vinifera juice samples sourced from two different vineyards from the Santa Ynez AVA of Santa Barbara county. Analysis of the mass spectral data was facilitated by a differential analysis software program—SIEVE 2.0™. Distinct metabolomic signatures in freshly crushed juice samples were elucidated. Interestingly, important and distinct information was revealed from the analysis of both the positive and negative ion data. Hierarchical clustering indicated the negative ion data displayed similarity based on varietal character while results obtained in the positive ion mode clustered primarily on terroir. This may indicate that more acidic compounds are influenced by varietal character while more basic compounds are influenced by terroir. Using a feature of SIEVE 2.0 a flavonoid database was utilized to search the raw data for flavonoids present in the juice samples. This targeted analysis indicated the flavonoid profile of juice samples appears to be a good indicator of varietal character independent of terroir. The analysis presented in this study suggests distinct Vitis vinifera grape juice chemical signatures are present prior to fermentation. Further analysis will aim to attribute which of these compounds is influenced by varietal character and/or terroir.
