黑果枸杞LrDREB1基因克隆及其在非生物胁迫下的表达分析

DREB(Dehydrate responsive element binding factor)转录因子是植物非生物逆境适应中的关键调节因子,该类转录因子具有保守的AP2/EREBP结构域,在低温、高盐等非生物逆境胁迫下,可调控下游逆境应答基因的表达,对增强植物的抗逆能力有重要作用。黑果枸杞具有极强的耐干旱、盐碱能力,为研究黑果枸杞DREB类基因在低温、盐碱响应中的功能,本研究以强抗盐灌木黑果枸杞总RNA为模板,基于前期转录组测序拼接序列,利用RT-PCR方法克隆得到一条DREB基因。该基因含有一个1116 bp的开放阅读框,编码372个氨基酸。系统进化树分析显示,Lr DREB1基因属于DREB亚家族A2组成员,与拟南芥AtDREB2B、AtDREB2E具有较高的相似性。荧光定量PCR结果显示,Lr DREB1受盐胁迫、ABA胁迫和低温胁迫诱导表达,可能参与依赖ABA的信号转导途径,调节黑果枸杞抗盐响应。本研究通过对黑果枸杞LrDREB1基因的克隆、序列分析和表达分析,为研究Lr DREB1的功能及黑果枸杞抗盐机理提供了帮助。     

Protective and defensive roles of non-glandular trichomes against multiple stresses:structure-function coordination

As superficial structures,non-glandular trichomes,protect plant organs against multiple biotic and abiotic stresses.The protective and defensive roles of these epidermal appendages are crucial to developing organs and can be attributed to the excellent combination of suitable structural traits and chemical reinforcement in the form of phenolic compounds,primarily fl avonoids.Both the formation of trichomes and the accumulation of phenolics are interrelated at the molecular level.During the early stages of development,non-glandular trichomes show strong morphological similarities to glandular ones such as the balloon-like apical cells with numerous phenolics.At later developmental stages,and during secondary wall thickening,phenolics are transferred to the cell walls of the trichomes.Due to the diff use deposition of phenolics in the cell walls,trichomes provide protection against UV-B radiation by behaving as optical fi lters,screening out wavelengths that could damage sensitive tissues.Protection from strong visible radiation is also aff orded by increased surface light refl ectance.Moreover,the mixtures of trichome phenolics represent a superfi-cial chemical barrier that provides protection against biotic stress factors such as herbivores and pathogens.Although the cells of some trichomes die at maturity,they can modulate their quantitative and qualitative characteristics during development,depending on the prevailing conditions of the external biotic or abiotic environment.In fact,the structure and chemical constituents of trichomes may change due to the particular light regime,herbivore damage,wounding,water stress,salinity and the presence of heavy metals.Hence,trichomes represent dynamic protective structures that may greatly aff ect the outcome of many plant–environment interactions.

盐碱复合胁迫对白茎盐生草种子萌发的影响

为了解盐碱胁迫对种子萌发的影响，本研究以白茎盐生草(Halogeton arachnoideus)为研究对象，采用室内模拟试验，以盐分种类和盐浓度为控制因素，按照NaCl ? Na2SO4 ? NaHCO3 ? Na2CO3的顺序，以A (1 ? 1 ? 0 ? 0)、B (1 ? 2 ? 1 ? 0)、C (1 ? 9 ? 9 ? 1)、D (1 ? 1 ? 1 ? 1)、E (9 ? 1 ? 1 ? 9) 5种不同比例进行混合，共5个组别，记为A－E；每个组别分为6个浓度，共30个处理，研究盐碱复合胁迫对其种子萌发的影响。结果表明：随着盐溶液浓度的升高，种子发芽率、发芽势、发芽指数均呈下降趋势；将盐溶液中未萌发的种子转移到蒸馏水中后，种子可以不同程度地恢复萌发。经过回归分析得出，A－E的耐盐阈值依次为0.26、0.24、0.23、0.25、0.16 mol·L?1，耐盐极限值分别为0.65、0.62、0.62、0.60、0.52 mol·L?1；聚类分析得出，A－E的耐盐阈值依次为0.3、0.2、0.3、0.3、0.1 mol·L?1。对回归与聚类分析结果取均值，得出白茎盐生草种子萌发在盐碱复合胁迫下的耐盐阈值为0.234 mol·L?1，耐盐极限值为0.602 mol·L?1。盐分浓度对种子萌发的影响大于盐分种类。相较于碱性盐，白茎盐生草更耐受中性盐环境。     

Transpiration efficiency of Amaranth (Amaranthus sp.) in response to drought stress

Drought is a major abiotic stress responsible for severe crop losses worldwide. Development of new crop varieties with increased drought tolerance is one way to increase crop productivity. The aim of this study was to characterise the diversity of nine accessions belonging to Amaranthus tricolor and A. cruentus, in response to drought stress using a dry-down protocol to characterise the transpiration efficiency (TE). Plants were subjected to either a gradual dry down or well-watered conditions. Results showed that TE was significantly higher (P < 0.01) in water-deficient (WD) plants compared to water-sufficient (WS) plants, 2.40 g kg^?1–7.13 g kg^?1 and 2.19 g kg^?1–4.84 g kg^?1, respectively. There was no significant difference in the fraction of transpirable soil water (FTSW) threshold decline between the amaranth genotypes. TE was highly correlated with yield under both WS (r = 0.89, P < 0.001) and WD conditions (r = 0.662, P < 0.001), and negatively correlated with root-to-shoot ratio under both WS (r = ?0.488, P < 0.05) and WD conditions (r = ?0.460, P < 0.05). Significant genotypic differences were seen for growth rate and stress susceptibility index (SSI). The result obtained in this investigation underline the need to identify genotypic variation in water use efficiency in amaranth.

玉米受精和早期子粒发育过程及逆境胁迫对其影响

玉米受精及子粒发育早期是决定穗粒数及粒重的重要时期,也是对环境变化相对较敏感的阶段。受精极核需要经历游离核、细胞化和细胞分化3个阶段形成胚乳,受精卵同样需要一系列的分裂分化形成最终的胚。玉米受精前极易遭受不良环境的影响,导致性器官发育不正常,影响花粉或花丝活力间接影响玉米受精过程。受精过程中的环境胁迫会通过阻碍花粉与花丝的识别、减缓花粉管在花丝中的延伸速率影响受精过程。子粒发育早期主要是受精极核分裂分化形成胚乳、受精卵分裂分化形成胚的过程,该阶段遭受环境胁迫下,胚乳细胞分裂受阻影响子粒库容。研究表明,逆境胁迫条件下,玉米的受精及子粒早期发育过程与碳水化合物的代谢以及激素的合成密切相关。

Initial shapes of stress-strain curve of wood specimen subjected to repeated combined compression and vibration stresses and the piezoelectric behavior

This study investigated the relationship between the initial shape of the stress (σ)-strain (ε) curve of a Chamaecyparis obtusa wood specimen subjected to repeated combined compression and vibration stresses at various angles between the fiber direction and load direction and the piezoelectric behavior. The main findings of the study are: (1) the σ-ε curve became convex initially, and then the stress was proportional to the strain. The σ-ε curve had almost the same shape during both loading and unloading. (2) The σ-piezoelectric voltage (P) curve was nonlinear, with a maximal point or cusp on the curve, which had almost the same shape during both loading and unloading, as was also observed for the σ-ε curve. (3) The plot of the first derivative of the stress [dσ/dε (= σ′)] against ε was nonlinear. The σ′-ε and P-ε curves at various angles were fairly similar. (4) The stress at the maximal point (or cusp) of the σ-P curve decreased with an increase in the angle between the fiber direction and load direction. The tendency of the stresses was very similar to that of Young’s modulus and compression strength calculated from Hook’s law and Hankinson’s law, respectively.     

内应力释放对刨花板尺寸稳定性的影响分析

研究了热压过程中内应力的形成机理和板材内部应力状态,探讨了内应力释放对刨花板尺寸稳定性的影响,提出了减小内应力和提高尺寸稳定性的工艺措施.刨花板会发生变形,即尺寸不稳定,源于以下两个基本原因:(1)构成刨花板主体单元的木材有吸湿性;(2)刨花板在热压过程中产生了内应力即残余应力.刨花板内应力释放时,人们可以实实在在地感觉到,例如:刨花板热压结束后,卸板时板坯内会传出嘣、嘣、嘣的声音,或者是规整而无变形的刨花板在开料后会发现有翘曲变形出现.这就是残存在刨花板内部的应力在释放.本文根据木材传热传质的理论、应力松驰理论、相平衡理论对刨花板内应力形成机理和应力状态及内应力释放对刨花板尺寸稳定性的影响进行分析和研究,为生产提供理论指导.
