Agronomic traits of soybean cultivars released in different decades after grafting record‐yield cultivar as rootstock

Breeders have seldom considered the selection for root traits during the genetic improvement in soybean. It is hypothesized that grain yield would be increased by the root function improvement, especially for the current cultivars. The objective of this grafting experiment was to determine the effect of record‐yield cultivars L14 or Z35 as rootstocks on agronomic traits of cultivars released in different decades. A total of 11 cultivars, released in different decades, were used to graft onto L14 or Z35 rootstocks. The agronomic traits were measured in the pot‐culture experiments. Grafting cultivars released in different decades onto L14 or Z35 rootstocks resulted in higher yield, 100‐seed mass and apparent harvest index as compared with those of non‐grafted or self‐grafted plants. Grain yield gain of cultivars grafted onto record‐yield cultivar rootstocks was 0.40 g/plant/year from 1966 to 2006, which was larger than that of non‐grafts and self‐grafts (0.27 g/plant/year). The yield of current cultivars should increase more if their root functions were improved.     

施硒对黄芪生长、硒含量及转运的影响

为了解黄芪对硒的吸收转运能力,以黄芪为试材,采用根施和叶面喷施硒2种方式,探索施用不同浓度(0、5、10、50、100μmol/L)的硒酸钠和亚硒酸钠,对黄芪生物量、硒含量以及硒在植物体内的转运能力进行研究。结果表明,无论是以硒酸钠还是亚硒酸钠作为硒源均有利于黄芪地上部和根部干物重、硒含量的增加,随着硒浓度的增加干物重呈先升高后下降的趋势,黄芪地上部硒含量呈逐渐上升的趋势,根部硒含量与之相反。添加硒酸钠和亚硒酸钠处理时,在10μmol/L浓度处理时黄芪地上部和根部干物重最大,分别比CK增加了49.89%、60.87%和23.36%、60.00%。添加相同浓度的硒酸钠处理时,黄芪地上部和根部中硒含量高于施亚硒酸钠处理,在100μmol/L浓度处理下黄芪地上部硒含量最大为119.13μg/g,在5μmol/L浓度处理下黄芪根部硒含量最大为52.25μg/g。2种施硒方式下,根部施硒酸钠更有利于黄芪对硒的富集,且黄芪根部向地上部转运硒的能力随施硒浓度的升高逐渐增大。     

Effect of dietary graded levels of cottonseed meal and gossypol on growth performance,body composition and health aspects of allogynogenetic silver crucian carp,Carassius auratus gibelio♀ × Cyprinus carpio♂

A 6‐month trial was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary cottonseed meal (CSM) and free gossypol (FG) on allogynogenetic silver crucian carp, Carassius auratus gibelio♀ × Cyprinus carpio♂ with 4 replicates of each treatment. Isonitrogenous and isocaloric diets were formulated with the 0 g kg^?1 (control), 200 g kg^?1, 400 g kg^?1, and 560 g kg^?1 CSM. Diets with FG were made by supplementing batches of control diet with 214 mg kg^?1, 428 mg kg^?1, and 642 mg kg^?1. Weight gain, specific growth rate, and protein efficiency ratio increased significantly up to an inclusion level of CSM of 400 g kg^?1 in the diet, with a significant decrease in food conversion ratio. Further increase in CSM to 560 g kg^?1 did not cause further changes in fish performance. Free gossypol did not affect fish performance significantly at any inclusion level. Neither CSM nor FG caused significant effects in any of the other evaluated parameters such as whole body composition, haemoglobin concentration, activities of serum lysozyme, superoxide dismutase, alanine aminotransferase and aspartate aminotransferase, and histology of hepatic tissues and midgut. Our results suggested that crucian carp can tolerate at least 642 mg kg^?1 FG and that it is safe to including 400 g kg^?1 CSM in crucian carp feed.

Low levels of Aflatoxin B1 could cause mortalities in juvenile hybrid sturgeon,Acipenser ruthenus ♂×A. baeri♀

Toxicity of aflatoxin B₁ (AFB₁) was investigated in juvenile hybrid sturgeon Acipenser ruthenus ♂ × A. baeri♀, an important coldwater finfish farmed in China and other countries. Seven experimental diets (Diet A–G) containing different levels of AFB₁ (0, 1, 5, 10, 20, 40 and 80 μg kg^?1 diet) were fed to juvenile sturgeon weighing 10.53 ± 0.17 g kg^?1 to determine its effect on survival, growth, feed consumption, hematocrit, liver histology as well as muscular and hepatic toxin accumulation. The experiment lasted for 35 days and was conducted in two periods of 25 and 10 days each. No external changes or unusual behaviour was observed in the fish fed diets with AFB₁. Mortality was observed in fish fed with highest levels of AFB₁ (80 μg kg^?1– Diet G) from day 12 onwards. After 25 days, fish fed the diet of 80 μg AFB₁ kg^?1 showed significant lower survival (50 ± 5.77%) followed by those fed 40 μg AFB₁ kg^?1 diet (80 ± 5.77%) and 20 μg AFB₁ kg^?1 diet (86.66 ± 3.33%). No significant difference was observed in specific growth rate (SGR) or hepatosomatic index (HSI) between groups. Hematocrit was significantly higher in the fish fed the diet of highest AFB₁. The fish were weighed at day 25 in some treatments (Diets F and G) because of high mortality. However, feeding was continued for another 10 days to observe mortality or behavioural changes if any in the other groups. After 35 days, survival in the fish fed Diet F (40 μg AFB₁ kg^?1) was 40% and those fed Diet E (20 μg AFB₁ kg^?1) was 36.2%. Significant histopathological changes including nuclear hypertrophy, hyperchromasia, extensive biliary hyperplasia, focal hepatocyte necrosis and presence of inflammatory cells were observed in the liver of fish fed high levels of aflatoxin (40 and 80 μg kg^?1). AFB₁ accumulation in fish muscle and liver increased with increased dietary AFB₁ levels. It could be confirmed that 10 μg AFB₁ kg^?1 diet was the maximum allowable level in hybrid sturgeon diet.

InDel分子标记WC656的开发及其在鉴别小麦-簇毛麦5VS纯合易位中的应用

簇毛麦是小麦品种改良重要的遗传资源，其5VS上含有硬度基因Dina/Dinb、抗白粉病基因Pm55和抗条锈病基因Yr5V，创制普通小麦-簇毛麦5VS易位系新种质，对于高效利用5VS上的有益基因进行小麦品种遗传改良具有重要意义。为了便于鉴别普通小麦-簇毛麦5VS纯合易位，本研究以mInDel软件分析普通小麦中国春基因组序列，开发了小麦第5同源群短臂的InDel特异分子标记WC656，对小麦品种以及普通小麦-簇毛麦5VS.5AL和5VS.5DL易位系及其衍生后代进行PCR扩增，根据扩增片段大小来区分5AS、5BS、5DS染色体臂以及5VS易位系。结果表明，在21个普通小麦品种、小麦-簇毛麦5VS回交F₂代中杂合易位单株，均扩增出379 bp（5AS）、471 bp（5BS）、422 bp（5DS）3条带。在T5VS.5AL高代品系、回交F₂代中纯合易位单株扩增出471 bp（5BS）、422 bp（5DS）2条带，379 bp（5AS）条带缺失。T5VS.5DL高代品系、回交F₂代中纯合易位单株扩增出379 bp（5AS）、471 bp（5BS）2条带，422 bp（5DS）条带缺失。WC656鉴别的5VS纯合易位结果与顺序FISH-GISH分析结果一致。T5VS.5AL、T5VS.5DL具有抗白粉病、籽粒硬度指数低等优良特性。因此，利用InDel分子标记WC656可以鉴别普通小麦-簇毛麦T5VS.5AL、T5VS.5DL衍生后代中的纯合易位，PCR扩增实验操作相对简便，可以为分子标记辅助选育携有5VS纯合易位的软质弱筋小麦提供帮助。
