建兰根状茎增殖条件的研究

研究了建兰两个栽培品种的根状茎在固体及液体两种培养方式,以及培养基中有无激素和不同激素浓度配比对增殖及分化的影响。根状茎在液体培养基上的生长量都大于固体培养基上的生长量。根状茎在无激素的培养基上也能增殖。加入激素有促进作用。合适的激素浓度及配比因品种而异。     

亚美万代兰与多花兰种子发芽过程的扫描电镜观察

兰种子发芽之后形成原球茎与根状茎,前者以亚美万代兰,后者以多花兰为材料进行扫描电镜观察。多花兰种子发芽初期,与亚美万代兰相似,但分化子叶的能力较差,在暗培养下,只形成鳞片状叶,紧贴在根状茎的分生组织上。根状茎只有转入光培养才有茎叶分化。兰种子发芽时的毛状物,在电子显微镜下观察,其形态与根毛较接近。

Isolation and structure determination of triterpenes from Iris tectorum

Four iridal-type triterpenoids, two of which were new compounds, have been isolated from rhizomes of Iris tectorum Maxim. Their structures were determined by 1D and 2D NMR spectroscopy and ESI-MS spectrometry. The compounds were identified as the iritectols A and B, and the known iridobelamal A and isoiridogermanal. The presence of epoxide and tetrahydrofuran functions are not common in previously isolated iridal-type triterpenoids.     

Rhizome transition to storage organ is under phytochrome control in lotus <Emphasis Type="Italic">(Nelumbo nucifera)</Emphasis>

We examined photoperiodic response of lotus (Nelumbo nucifera) rhizome morphogenesis (its transition to a storage organ) by using seed-derived plants. Rhizome enlargement (increase in girth) was brought about under 8, 10 and 12 h photoperiods, whereas the rhizomes elongated under 13 and 14 h photoperiods. Rhizomes elongated under 14 h light regimes supplied as 8 h of natural light plus 6 h supplemental hours of white, yellow or red light, but similar treatments with supplemental blue, green or far red light, caused enlargement in girth of the rhizomes. A 2 h interruption of the night with white, yellow or red light, in plants entrained to 8 h photoperiod brought rhizome elongation, whereas 2 h-blue, green or far red light night breaks still resulted in rhizome increase in girth. The inhibitory effect of a red (R) light night break on rhizome increase in girth was reversed by a far-red (FR) light given immediately afterwards. Irradiation with R/FR/R inhibited the rhizome increase in girth. FR light irradiation following R/FR/R irradiation cancelled the effect of the last R light irradiation. It was demonstrated that the critical photoperiod for rhizome transition to storage organ is between 12 and 13 h photoperiod. It was also evident that the optimal light quality range for interruption of dark period (night break) is between yellow and red light and that a R/FR reversible reaction is observed. From these results, we propose that phytochrome plays an important role in photoperiodic response of rhizome increase in girth in lotus. This is the first report on phytochrome-dependent morphogenesis of storage organs in rhizomous plants.     

姜半夏乙醇提取物对人胃癌SGC7901 细胞增殖和凋亡的影响

目的:观察姜半夏乙醇提取物对人胃癌SGC7901细胞增殖和凋亡的影响。方法:不同浓度姜半夏乙醇提取物(终浓度为1mg/ml,0.5mg/ml,0.25mg/ml,0.125mg/ml)处理SGC7901细胞后,倒置相差显微镜下观察细胞的形态学变化;通过甲基噻唑基四唑法检测细胞增殖状况、描绘生长曲线,使用紫外分光光度法观察药物干预后细胞ATP酶活力;AnnexinV-异硫氰酸荧光素(fluorescein isothiocyanate,FITC)/碘化丙啶(propidium iodide,PI)双标记法流式细胞术检测姜半夏乙醇提取物对SGC7901细胞诱导凋亡的情况。结果:不同浓度姜半夏乙醇提取物均能不同程度地抑制人胃癌SGC7901细胞的增殖;在姜半夏乙醇提取物诱导细胞后细胞发生了边缘毛刺、体积缩小等形态学变化,同时可见细胞折光度和贴壁能力下降;AnnexinV-FITC/PI双标记法检测显示姜半夏乙醇提取物可诱导细胞发生凋亡;细胞总ATP酶活力在药物干预72小时后出现明显下降;并且随着药物浓度增加细胞凋亡率、细胞形态异常改变以及ATP酶活力抑制作用均呈上升趋势。结论:姜半夏乙醇提取物可抑制人胃癌SGC7901细胞的增殖,促进其凋亡,抑制细胞ATP酶活力。     

空心莲子草地下茎克隆繁殖特征

空心莲子草是一种原产于南美洲的苋科多年生草本植物,目前在许多地方已经成为一种危害十分严重的外来入侵植物。通过地下茎等营养器官进行无性繁殖是其主要繁殖方式。本文以空心莲子草的地下茎为实验材料,对其克隆繁殖特征进行了研究。研究结果表明:(1)地下茎的节是克隆繁殖的必要条件,节的有无决定克隆繁殖是否发生;(2)地下茎可以通过控制单位节上的出芽率来调节其克隆生长过程,从而使克隆繁殖结果更有利于整个种群的生长;(3)地下茎的粗细程度对其克隆繁殖也有显著影响。空心莲子草地下茎的单位节数与其单位节出芽率、无性系小株的高度和地上部分的节数之间存在密切联系。     

Decomposition of aboveground and belowground organs of wild rice (Zizania latifolia): mass loss and nutrient changes

Decomposition of aboveground and belowground organs of the emergent macrophyte Z.latifolia was investigated using a litterbag technique for a period of 359 days in a freshwater marsh in Japan. Aboveground parts were classified into: leaves, sheaths and stems. Belowground parts were classified into: horizontal rhizomes (new rhizome, hard rhizome, soft rhizome) and vertical rhizome (stembase). The decay rate (k) was 0.0036 day⁻¹, 0.0033 day⁻¹ and 0.0021 day⁻¹ for leaves, sheaths and stems, respectively. For belowground parts, the decay rate varied considerably from 0.0018 day⁻¹ to 0.0079 day⁻¹, according to differences in the initial chemical compositions of rhizomes. After 359 days of decay, new rhizomes lost 94% of their original dry mass, compared with a loss of 48–84% for the other rhizomes. There was a significant positive relationship between litter quality and decay rate for horizontal rhizomes. For the new rhizomes, which had an internal nitrogen content of 24.2 mg N g⁻¹ dry mass, the mass loss was 40% higher than that of soft rhizomes, which had an internal N content of 9.8 mg N g⁻¹ dry mass. Over the period of 359 days, the nitrogen concentration in all rhizome types decreased to levels lower than initial values, but the phosphorus concentration remained constant after an initial leaching loss. Most nitrogen and phosphorus were lost during the first 45 days of decay. Changes in carbon to nitrogen (C:N) and carbon to phosphorus (C:P) ratios basically followed inversed trends of the nitrogen and phosphorus concentrations.
