Quantitative trait loci analysis for root traits in synthetic hexaploid wheat under drought stress conditions

Synthetic hexaploid wheat(SHW), possesses numerous genes for drought that can help breeding for drought-tolerant wheat varieties. We evaluated 10 root traits at seedling stage in 111 F9 recombinant inbred lines derived from a F2 population of a SHW line(SHW-L1) and a common wheat line, under normal(NC) and polyethylene glycol-simulated drought stress conditions(DC). We mapped quantitative trait loci(QTLs) for root traits using an enriched high-density genetic map containing 120 370 single nucleotide polymorphisms(SNPs), 733 diversity arrays technology markers(DArT) and 119 simple sequence repeats(SSRs). With four replicates per treatment, we identified 19 QTLs for root traits under NC and DC, and 12 of them could be consistently detected with three or four replicates. Two novel QTLs for root fresh weight and root diameter under NC explained 9 and 15.7% of the phenotypic variation respectively, and six novel QTLs for root fresh weight, the ratio of root water loss, total root surface area, number of root tips, and number of root forks under DC explained 8.5–14% of the phenotypic variation. Here seven of eight novel QTLs could be consistently detected with more than three replicates. Results provide essential information for fine-mapping QTLs related to drought tolerance that will facilitate breeding drought-tolerant wheat cultivars.     

番茄褪绿病毒在湖南省首次发生

2016年7月在湖南省蔬菜病害调查中发现,4种茄科蔬菜表现出叶脉间褪绿、叶片黄化等症状,疑似被番茄褪绿病毒(Tomato chlorosis virus,To CV)感染,同时叶片背面聚集了大量烟粉虱。采用To CV热激蛋白(heat shock protein 70,HSP70)序列的特异性引物对采集的番茄、茄子、辣椒、马铃薯样品和烟粉虱样品进行RT-PCR检测,均扩增出目标条带,且扩增序列与北京番茄To CV分离物(KC887999.1)部分序列相似度为99.0%,确认采集样品被To CV感染。4种茄科蔬菜To CV的感染率达70%~100%;发病叶片上烟粉虱的带毒率为66.7%~87.5%;鉴定出烟粉虱的生物类型为MED烟粉虱。这是湖南省首次确认该病毒,需要引起关注和加强防范。

以全国各地搜集的205份辣椒种质为试材,观测28个形态性状,并对其进行相关性、主成分和聚类分析研究。结果表明:辣椒形态学性状间存在较高相关性,单株果数、叶形、株型、果形、茎绒毛、花梗着状、熟性、花柱色是最关键的性状。6个主成分的方差累积贡献率为50.653%,暗示这28个性状代表了更多的性状改良方向。主成分归纳为形态因子、产量因子、熟期因子、色彩因子,呼应聚类分析的主要区分依据果形、单株果数、熟期和果色,将205份种质分成7类,有效区分了不同的品种。说明在改良形态性状时,按育种目标的要求选取主要性状,同时也要注意与其它性状间的关联。     

不同保鲜膜对草莓果实贮藏品质的影响

以草莓"红颜"为试材,以PVC(聚氯乙烯)膜为对照,研究了PE(聚乙烯)膜、PHM(多层PE系)膜、纳米银膜、PVDC(聚偏二氯乙烯)膜等5种保鲜处理在(4.0±0.6)℃贮藏条件下对草莓果实失重率、硬度和可溶性固形物、维生素C、可溶性糖含量及感官品质的影响。结果表明:相较于PVC保鲜膜,PVDC膜与PHM膜能够较好的保持草莓果实的贮藏品质。其中PVDC膜包装可以有效地减少果实水分散失,保持草莓的硬度以及果实可溶性固形物含量;PHM膜包装可以较好的保持草莓果实可溶性固形物、维生素C、可溶性糖含量,维持果实的营养成分。     

草地贪夜蛾形态特征及与3种玉米田为害特征和形态相近鳞翅目昆虫的比较

草地贪夜蛾Spodoptera frugiperda(J.E.Smith)是一种重要的世界性害虫,目前已经侵入我国云南省。田间调查发现,草地贪夜蛾与甜菜夜蛾S.exigua、斜纹夜蛾S.litura和黏虫Mythimna separata在玉米上往往混合发生,且形态相近,容易混淆。本文详细描述了草地贪夜蛾卵、幼虫、蛹和成虫的外部形态特征,并比较了其与甜菜夜蛾、斜纹夜蛾和黏虫的幼虫和成虫的形态差异。本文为草地贪夜蛾的准确鉴别和田间调查提供依据,并为草地贪夜蛾的精准测报奠定基础。     

Construction and evaluation of introgression lines and fine mapping of ehd8 from Jinghong common wild rice (Oryza rufipogon)

Heading date is one of the most important traits in rice and regulated by multiple genes. Common wild rice is the ancestor of Asian cultivated rice and harbours abundant genetic diversity. To use wild rice resource in rice breeding, a set of 154 introgression lines (ILs) covering 93% of the genome of Jinghong common wild rice was constructed in the background 'Teqing', using 208 simple sequence repeat markers evenly distributed on 12 chromosomes. Among the ILs, the line JIL64 displayed late heading independent of photoperiod. Genetic analysis using the two F₂ populations crossed ''Teqing'/JIL64 and JIL64/'Teqing' revealed that late flowering was controlled by a recessive gene on chromosome 8 (designated early heading date 8, ehd8), and ehd8 was fine mapped to the 50‐kb region flanked by markers RM22221 and 64Indel4. Sequencing and qRT‐PCR demonstrated that LOC_Os08g01410 and LOC_Os08g01420 were deleted in JIL64 and may be associated with the late heading of Jinghong common wild rice. These findings lay a practical foundation for characterizing ehd8, and the ILs help to mine genes from Jinghong common wild rice.     

安徽省猪伪狂犬病毒的分离鉴定及其主要毒力基因分子特征

猪伪狂犬病是由猪伪狂犬病毒(porcine pseudorabies virus,PRV)引起的一种急性、热性传染病。自2011年底以来,PRV发生了变异,传统的PRV弱毒疫苗已不能对PRV变异株提供完全保护,这给我国PR防控带来了巨大挑战。为了解安徽省PRV流行特征及其主要毒力基因遗传变异情况。利用PCR技术、细胞接种试验、电子显微镜观察、间接免疫荧光试验及兔体接种试验等方法,对安徽省临诊病例中疑似PRV感染的病猪进行病原检测及PRV分离鉴定,并通过设计6对特异性引物对PRV分离株主要毒力基因(gE、gI、TK、gB、gC、gD)进行克隆及测序分析。2016—2018年安徽省临诊病例中共分离鉴定15株PRV;PRV分离株主要毒力基因序列均与2011年后国内PRV变异株同源性较高;与2011年前国内PRV经典株序列比对,PRV分离株gE、gB、gC及gD基因存在多个位点的一致性替换、插入或缺失,且gE、gC基因多位点突变位于其重要的抗原表位区。本研究分离的15株PRV均为变异株,变异株已成为安徽省主要的流行毒株。15株PRV分离株的gI、TK基因序列较为保守,而gE、gC蛋白抗原表位区域氨基酸的突变可能导致其毒力及抗原性发生改变。部分PRV分离株与邻近地区PRV序列同源性均为100%,可能与频繁跨省调运生猪、跨区引种等原因有关。

不同保水剂对土壤特性及烤烟生长的影响

为提高秦巴山区黄棕壤烟田的土壤性能,减少季节性干旱对烤烟生长的影响,以不施保水剂为对照,在烟田整地起垄前分别施入聚丙烯酸钾(K-PAM)、聚丙烯酰胺(PAM)和腐殖酸钾(KHm)3种保水剂,测定施用不同保水剂后的土壤容重、土壤水分和烤烟生长状况、常规化学成分及经济性状。结果表明,聚丙烯酸钾和聚丙烯酰胺保水剂均降低0～40cm土层土壤容重,在烤烟旺长期提高0～40cm土层土壤水分。不同保水剂均可提高烤烟常规化学成分含量,其中腐殖酸钾保水剂显著降低烤烟的糖碱比和氮碱比。聚丙烯酸钾保水剂提高烤烟的产量、产值、上等烟比例及净增产值,而聚丙烯酰胺和腐殖酸钾保水剂处理组则降低烤烟的净增产值。因此,建议秦巴山区黄棕壤烟田选用聚丙烯酸钾类保水剂。
