培土栽培对麻竹笋品质的影响机理研究

为了评价不同栽培模式对麻竹笋品质影响,提高竹林经济效益,采用培土栽培和不培土栽培两种方式,通过研究麻竹笋外观形态、营养物质、呈味物质及氨基酸含量,分析了不同培土栽培对麻竹笋品质的影响。结果表明:(1)培土栽培的麻竹笋个体重量、基茎、长度及可食率较不培土栽培竹笋分别显著提高了28.09%、12.76%、19.61%、23.53%,箨壁厚度显著降低了46.43%。(2)培土栽培的麻竹笋灰分、蛋白质、脂肪及淀粉含量较不培土栽培竹笋分别显著下降了10.08%、12.77%、26.09%、48.84%,而还原糖、可溶性糖、水分及维生素C含量均不同程度增加。(3)培土栽培的麻竹笋单宁、草酸、纤维素、木质素含量较不培土栽培竹笋分别下降26.32%、20.26%、39.12%、25.47%。(4)培土栽培的麻竹笋氨基酸总量较不培土栽培竹笋显著增加了26.08%,其中的苦味、芳香类和鲜味氨基酸含量占比均下降,但甜味氨基酸占比则显著上升。研究发现,培土栽培可以改善麻竹笋外观形态,同时增加竹笋甜味、减少粗糙度和酸涩味,从而使竹笋品质得到明显提升。     

麻竹miR172a靶基因DlAP2的克隆及其表达

为了解开花麻竹(Dendrocalamus latiflorus)的Dl AP2基因功能,采用RT-PCR和RACE技术克隆了mi R172a靶基因AP2同源序列c DNA全长,命名为Dl AP2。结果表明,Dl AP2基因c DNA全长为1729 bp,包含5′端非编码区81 bp、开放阅读框1464 bp、3′端非编码区160 bp和24个碱基的Poly A尾巴,在编码框靠近3′端130 bp处有1个高度匹配mi R172a的结合位点(CTGCAGCATCATCAGGATTCT)。Dl AP2编码487个氨基酸的蛋白,具有两个AP2结构域,属于AP2/ERF家族AP2亚家族的AP2组,与来自其它单子叶植物的AP2蛋白均有较高同源性。RLM-5′RACE分析表明,mi R172a主要在靶序列的第11~12个碱基之间剪切靶基因Dl AP2的mi RNA。q RT-PCR结果表明,麻竹花芽中Dl AP2基因的表达规律与mi R172a表达变化正好相反,证明mi R172a对Dl AP2基因的表达具有调控作用。     

Incompatibility behavior of a symbiotic plasmid pMH7653Rb in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Mesorhizobium huakuii</Emphasis> 7653R

Mesorhizobium huakuii strain 7653R harbored two indigenous plasmids named pMH7653Ra and pMH7653Rb. The larger plasmid pMH7653Rb (symbiotic plasmid) was transferred to M. huakuii HN308SR harboring three plasmids: pMHHN308a, pMHHN308b and pMHHN308c, and HN3015SR harboring three plasmids: pMHHN3015a, pMHHN3015b and pMHHN3015c by tri-parent mating. Two stable indigenous plasmids, pMHHN308b and pMHHN308c of HN308SR, were co-eliminated due to the introduction of pMH7653Rb, and the transconjugant was named HN308SRN14. The results implied that pMH7653Rb and pMHHN308b, pMHHN308c were incompatible and might have been ascribed to the same incompatible group. The plasmid profiles of transconjugant HN3015SRN14 showed that the second largest plasmid pMHHN3015b of HN3015SR was cured due to the introduction of pMH7653Rb. The results also implied that pMH7653Rb and pMHHN3015b were incompatible. Results from plant nodulation tests showed that pMH7653Rb could only maintain the nodulation ability in transconjugant HN308SRN14 and its nodule number was more than that of wild strain HN308SR, but could not replace the nitrogen fixation effect of pMHHN308b and pMHHN308c. The plasmid cured mutant HN308SRN14D harboring only pMHHN308a formed null nodules that demonstrated pMHHN308a was relevant to nodulation ability. HN3015SRN14 harboring pMH7653Rb, pMHHN3015a and pMHHN3015c formed null nodules while HN3015SRN14D containing pMHHN3015a and pMHHN3015c lost the nodulation ability. The plasmid replication repC-like gene sequences were detected by a polymerase chain reaction from 7653R, HN308, HN3015, HN308SRN14 and HN3015SRN14. The repC gene sequence similarities of the strains tested attained 99%.

模拟低温或自然低温条件下牡竹属3种类抗寒性及生理指标的比较

以牡竹属(Dendrocalamus Nees)的清甜竹(D.sapidus Q.H.Dai et D.Y.Huang)、花吊丝竹[D.minor var.amoenus(Q.H.Dai et C.F.Huang) Hsueh et D.Z.Li]和勃氏甜龙竹[D.brandisii (Munro) Kurz]盆栽苗为实验材料,测定了模拟低温(0℃、-5℃、-10℃、-15℃、-20℃和-25℃)条件下3个竹种离体叶片的相对电导率和伤害率,在此基础上根据Logistic方程推算出3个竹种的低温半致死温度(LT50);对自然低温(15℃、10℃、5℃、3℃、0℃和-2 C)条件下3个竹种叶片的形态变化以及相对电导率、叶绿素和MDA含量及SOD活性的变化也进行了比较分析.结果表明:在模拟低温条件下,3个竹种离体叶片的相对电导率和伤害率均随温度降低逐渐增大,且总体上与对照(25℃)有显著差异(P＜0.05);根据Logistic方程推算出花吊丝竹、勃氏甜龙竹和清甜竹的LT50分别为-3.07℃、-1.83℃和-1.40 C.在日最低温度大于5℃的自然低温条件下3个竹种的叶片均能够正常生长,而随温度降低,叶片逐渐出现水浸斑点、失绿等症状直至干枯脱落,其中清甜竹叶片伤害症状最重;在自然低温条件下,随日最低气温的降低,3个竹种叶片的叶绿素含量总体呈下降趋势、相对电导率则逐渐升高、MDA含量和SOD活性总体上均呈波动的趋势;与日最低气温15℃相比,在日最低气温-2℃条件下清甜竹叶片叶绿素含量和SOD活性降幅最大而花吊丝竹降幅最小,清甜竹叶片相对电导率最高而花吊丝竹最低.根据LT50和叶片形态及生理指标的变化,可确定3个竹种的抗寒性均较差,其中清甜竹的耐寒能力最弱.

采用标准木法、回归分析法（乔木层）和样方法和相结合,分析了黄竹（endrocalamus membranaceus Munro)侵入对群落生物量的积累和物种多样性的影响,结果显示黄竹侵入严重影响生物量的积累,群落生物量随黄竹侵入量的增多而下降。随着黄竹侵入量的增加,群落内物种数量减少,物种多样性指数降低。     

Digestive gut structure and activity of protease, amylase, and alkaline phosphatase in Calanus sinicus during summer in the Yellow Sea and the East China Sea

Calanus sinicus aggregate at the depth of 40–60 m (ambient temperature is 16 °C) in the waters of the continental shelf of the Yellow Sea during summer. In animals found in near shore regions, there are changes in digestive gut cells structure, digestive enzyme activity (protease, amylase), and tissue enzyme (alkaline phosphatase (ALP)), which may represent adaptations by this cold-water animal to a sharp seasonal increase in temperature of 6–23 °C. The activities of the digestive enzymes (protease and amylase) are very low in animals at stations near the estuary of Yangtse River, whereas they are relatively high in animals at stations in the central Yellow Sea. During summer, B-cells of the intestine and the villi intestinalis disappear in animals that do not feed at stations near the estuary of the Yangtse River. Respiration rates were undetectable or quite low during summer in C. sinicus from stations near the estuary of the Yangtse River, whereas they were relatively high at stations in the central Yellow Sea. Based upon the morphological characteristics of the digestive gut structure, enzyme levels, respiration rates, and the distribution of C. sinicus, we concluded that C. sinicus might be dormant during summer in the near shore areas of the East China Sea while remaining active in the central Yellow Sea.     

Expression of the Kidney Bean Phenylalanine-Ammonia Lyase Gene in the Hairy Roots of Astragalus sinicus

Using Agrobacterium rhizogenes, Astragalus sinicus plants were transformed with the kidney bean pal5 gene coding for phenylalanine-ammonia lyase (PAL). The hairy root culture thus obtained manifested enhanced PAL activity and lignin content in the cell walls; in addition, the transformed cells differed from the wild-type ones in several electrophysiological indices. In particular, the diffusion component of the total membrane potential of plasmalemma increased in the pal-transformed roots. The authors presume that the volume density of the protein-related negative charge of the cytoplasm increases in the transformed root cells along with changes in the cytoplasmic pH and pCa²⁺, the extent of coupling of these two indices, and the hydraulic conductivity of plasmodesmata.
