A comparison of ferric-chelate reductase and chlorophyll and growth ratios as indices of selection of quince,pear and olive genotypes under iron deficiency stress

Quince (Cydonia oblonga Mill.), pear (Pyrus communis L.) and olive (Olea europaea L.) genotypes were evaluated for their tolerance to iron deficiency stress by growing young plants in three types of aerated nutrient solutions: (1) with iron, (2) without iron or (3) low in iron and with 10 mM bicarbonate. Plants were obtained either from rooted softwood cuttings or from germination of seeds. The degree of tolerance was evaluated with several indices: (1) the chlorophyll content, (2) the root Fe³⁺ reducing capacity and (3) the whole plant relative growth. Fifteen hours before Fe³⁺ reducing capacity determination, iron was applied to the roots of plants with iron-stress, since this method resulted in increasing the reductase activity. All quince and pear genotypes increased the root Fe³⁺ reducing capacity when grown in the treatments for iron-stress, in relation to control plants of the same genotypes. In olive cultivars, the Fe³⁺ reducing capacity was lower in the iron-stress treatments than in the control one. Studying the relationship between relative growth and chlorophyll content for each genotype under iron-stress, in relation to both indices in control plants, a classification of species and genotypes was established. According to that, most olive cultivars and some pear rootstocks and cultivars appear more iron-efficient than quince rootstocks. Our study shows that in some woody species, determining root Fe³⁺ reducing capacity is not the best method to establish tolerance to iron deficiency stress.

Conservation of the alternative oxidase and enhancement of cyanide-resistant respiration in suspension-cultured pear fruit cells by inhibitors of macromolecular synthesis

The contribution of the alternative pathway to the respiration of suspension-cultured pear ( Pyrus communis cv. Passa Crasanne) cells was enhanced, often severalfold, within 2 to 4 days following the addition of cycloheximide, actinomycin D, or 2-(4-methyl-2,6-dinitroanalino)- N -methyl propionamide (D-MDMP). Concomitant inhibition of cellular protein synthesis by cycloheximide and actinomycin D was transient and incomplete. However, inhibition by D-MDMP was virtually complete (>97%) and persisted over several days. [³⁵S]-labelling and polyacrylamide gel separation indicated that cycloheximide precluded the appearance of discernable new proteins in mitochondria. Probes with monoclonal antibodies revealed a conservation of alternative oxidase protein levels in the mitochondria of inhibitor-treated cells. The data, appraised within the complexities of cell-culture dynamics, lead to the conclusion that the observed increases in capacity for cyanide-resistant respiration are the consequence, likely indirect, of inhibited protein synthesis with resultant retention and activation of constitutive alternative oxidase.

鸭梨多酚氧化酶基因反义表达载体的构建及农杆菌介导的遗传转化

根据鸭梨多酚氧化酶基因序列设计引物,PCR扩增该基因3′端450bp的片段,并将该片段反向插入真核表达载体pB I121的CaMV 35S启动子和NOS终止子之间,首次构建了鸭梨PPO基因的反义表达载体;其后,在农杆菌EHA105的介导下,成功实现了PPO反义基因对鸭梨组培苗的遗传转化。经Northern杂交和酶活检测证实,转基因鸭梨植株体内的多酚氧化酶基因转录和翻译水平均得到明显抑制,从而为耐褐化梨新品种的培育奠定了基础。     

梨果实结构与耐贮性及品质关系的研究

梨果实是由下位民衍生,有发达的肉质果壁,是一种假果。不同品种梨果实结构有一;定判别表现在果实表现和果肉细胞及细胞内物质成分的不同。果实角质厝较厚,且后期深入表皮细胞间隙,表皮下４～５层细胞２含有大量易被染色的单宁类物质,定藏,角质膜较薄,表皮下细胞不含单宁类物质,不耐贮藏。不同品种梨果实中石细胞团的大小不同,糖分含含量也存在一定差异。石细胞团的大小与果肉细腻程度及糖分含量呈负相关,是影响果实品质的     

不同栽培管理梨园梨小食心虫发生程度研究

梨小食心虫Grapholitha molesta(Busck)是梨园中的一种重要害虫。本论文采用性诱剂诱集法研究了不同栽培管理条件下梨园梨小食心虫发生的情况。结果表明,在5种不同种植模式的果园中,梨小食心虫在单植桃园中发生最重,试验期间梨小食心虫的日平均诱蛾量为10.9头/盆,与其他4种栽植模式果园的诱捕量均呈显著差异,且混有桃树的果园中梨小食心虫的发生数量多,而单植梨园、梨苹果混栽园、单植苹果园的梨小食心虫发生相对较轻。果实套袋的管理方法也可以显著降低梨小食心虫的发生数量,非套袋梨园的日平均诱捕量为13.8头/盆,是套袋梨园的1.52倍。试验还表明,不同品种和不同树龄的梨树对梨小食心虫的抗虫性均存在显著差异。酥梨比巴梨的抗虫性差,试验期间酥梨园的日平均诱捕量为12.6头/盆,是巴梨园的2.21倍,而40年老酥梨园日平均诱蛾量为12.5头/盆,是20年酥梨园诱蛾量的2.5倍。

为明确莱阳地区不同栽培模式下单植梨园、单植桃园、混植桃梨园的梨小食心虫Grapholitha molesta(Busck)发生规律,2009—2012年采用性诱芯法对以上果园梨小食心虫的发生规律进行探究并利用有效积温模型预测其发生代数。结果表明:梨小食心虫在莱阳地区一年可发生4代;第1³代主要发生在桃园,发生时间为4—8月上旬,第4代主要发生在梨园,发生时间为8月中下旬或9月初,为害一直可持续到10月中旬。梨小食心虫在不同寄主上发生时间不同,除第一代发生比较整齐之外,其他世代发生时间不统一,尤其是梨园。单植梨园和单植桃园的梨小食心虫都能单独完成发育世代,但数量有差异。通过比较其差异显著性,单植桃园13代主要发生在桃园,发生时间为4—8月上旬,第4代主要发生在梨园,发生时间为8月中下旬或9月初,为害一直可持续到10月中旬。梨小食心虫在不同寄主上发生时间不同,除第一代发生比较整齐之外,其他世代发生时间不统一,尤其是梨园。单植梨园和单植桃园的梨小食心虫都能单独完成发育世代,但数量有差异。通过比较其差异显著性,单植桃园1³代明显多于第4代,单植梨园第4代明显多于第13代明显多于第4代,单植梨园第4代明显多于第1³代。     

拉枝处理对‘翠冠’梨成花的影响及其调控机制

以‘翠冠’梨为研究材料,对枝条进行90°拉枝处理,探明拉枝对梨成花及其相关基因(LFY、TFL1和FT)的表达以及内源激素和营养物质含量的影响。结果表明:(1)90°拉枝处理能够大幅度提高‘翠冠’梨的成花率。(2)与不拉枝处理相比,90°拉枝处理的花芽分化促进类激素——玉米素(ZT)和脱落酸(ABA)的含量上升,花芽分化抑制类激素——赤霉素(GA3)和生长素(IAA)的含量下降,可溶性糖含量和淀粉含量在花芽分化期间大量积累,全氮含量(N)下降,C/N比显著提高,且成花促进基因(LFY和FT)的表达量上升,成花抑制基因(TFL1)的表达量下降。(3)相关分析显示,LFY、FT基因表达量与ZT、ABA含量呈显著正相关关系,与GA3、IAA含量呈显著负相关关系,与可溶性糖含量、淀粉含量和C/N比呈显著正相关关系,与全氮含量呈显著负相关关系,而TFL1基因表达量与LFY、FT基因表达量呈显著负相关关系。研究认为,拉枝处理通过提高成花过程中花芽分化促进类内源激素含量和营养物质含量,上调成花促进基因表达水平,以及这些指标间相互影响共同调控提高‘翠冠’梨成花率。
