Effects of relative humidity, light intensity and photoperiod on the colony development of Erysiphe sp. on Rhododendron

Growth and reproduction by powdery mildew pathogens is generally inhibited by decreasing relative humidity. With Erysiphe sp. on Rhododendron cv. Elizabeth, the initial stages of colony development were adversely affected by reducing the relative humidity from 100% to 70 and 85%. No significant effects on secondary or tertiary hyphal development were detected. Light intensity and photoperiod both had considerable effect on the induced resistance response of the host. Over the initial 5 days of colonization there were no significant differences between any of the treatments. After 13 days, however, expansion of fungal colonies at 180 photosynthetic active radiation (PAR) was limited solely to the area initially infested by primary hyphae. By comparison, in colonies grown at 80 PAR regardless of day length, secondary and tertiary hyphae had extended beyond the area first colonized. These effects resulted in differing morphologies, small colonies of densely packed hyphae formed at 180 PAR compared with open spreading colonies at 80 PAR.

肥城桃组培苗诱导、基因转化及其增殖

红里、白里是肥城桃的两个优良品种,但不耐贮藏。为试图利用基因工程解决这一问题,先通过组培将其胚、胚乳、子叶的愈伤组织分别诱导再生植株和芽剥离出茎尖培育成苗。再将肥城桃反义PG基因,通过农杆菌介导转化组培苗,转化苗在含卡那霉素培养基上筛选,获得抗卡那霉素的转基因苗。用研制的增殖培养基培养4～7周,一个苗可生长出14～18分枝的苗,解决了转基因苗获得率低的问题,也满足了对转基因株系进行检测和从组培室到温棚到田间果园过渡栽培和芽接的需求,提高了繁育速率。     

阿魏酸对2种野生杜鹃种子萌发的化感作用

为探究化感物质阿魏酸对马缨杜鹃和露珠杜鹃种子萌发的化感作用,本研究采用不同浓度阿魏酸分别处理马缨杜鹃和露珠杜鹃种子,利用单因素方差对其发芽率、发芽势、发芽指数和化感指数进行差异性分析.结果表明:阿魏酸显著抑制马缨杜鹃和露珠杜鹃种子的萌发,对2种杜鹃种子的抑制作用随浓度的增加而增加.阿魏酸对马缨杜鹃和露珠杜鹃种子均具有显著的化感作用,化感效应的最强浓度为1 000 μg/mL.     

Top 20 environmental weeds for classical biological control in Europe: a review of opportunities, regulations and other barriers to adoption

Classical biological control remains the only tool available for permanent ecological and economic management of invasive alien species that flourish through absence of their co‐evolved natural enemies. As such, this approach is recognized as a key tool for alien species management by the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD), the European and Mediterranean Plant Protection Organization (EPPO) and the European Strategy on Invasive Alien Species (ESIAS). Successful classical biological control programmes abound around the world, despite disproportionate attention being given to occasional and predictable non‐target impacts. Despite more than 130 case histories in Europe against insect pests, no exotic classical biological control agent has been released in the EU against an alien invasive weed. This dearth has occurred in the face of increasing numbers of exotic invasive plants being imported and taking over National Parks, forests and amenity areas in this region, as well as a global increase in the use of classical biological control around the world. This paper reviews potential European weed targets for classical biological control from ecological and socioeconomic perspectives using the criteria of historical biological control success, taxonomic isolation from European native flora, likely availability of biological control agents, invasiveness outside Europe and value to primary industry and horticulture (potential for conflicts of interest). We also review why classical biological control of European exotic plants remains untested, considering problems of funding and public perception. Finally, we consider the regulatory framework that surrounds such biological control activities within constituent countries of the EU to suggest how this approach may be adopted in the future for managing invasive exotic weeds in Europe.     

贵州百里杜鹃保护区的杜鹃属植物种类及其观赏特性研究

贵州西部百里杜鹃保护区的杜鹃属植物种类关系到其保护区的价值。经过调查研究,该保护区计有杜鹃属植物33种(含变种),分属于5个亚属,占贵州现有杜鹃属植物种类111种的29.73%;并发现了西昌杜鹃和白花杜鹃两个贵州的新分布种;进而从园林的角度,论述了这些杜鹃属植物种类花的颜色、大小及花期等的观赏特性。     

毛白杜鹃耐碱突变体的离体筛选与鉴定

利用由NaHCO3建立的高pH值筛选培养基对毛白杜鹃组培再生的丛生芽进行了耐碱筛选,并对获得的耐碱突变体植株在碱性环境中叶绿素含量和根系Fe3+还原酶活性变化进行了分析.结果表明:10mmol/LNaHCO3是合适的选择压,突变体植株对碱性环境比对照具有较好的适应性和耐受性;该筛选方法是可行的.     

杜鹃花在华南植物园引种栽培的初步研究

以中科院华南植物园引种的12种杜鹃花属(Rhododendron)植物为研究对象,初步探讨了杜鹃花在华南的引种栽培的技术与理论。在广州地区的气候条件下,引种杜鹃花要解决引种植物的耐热、耐光照的问题,并配套以适当栽培和管理措施。在介绍杜鹃花及其园林绿化功能的基础上,对华南植物园杜鹃花的引种栽培提出了构想,以期为指导广州地区利用杜鹃花资源有所帮助。     

华顶山云锦杜鹃林地土壤肥力分析

对华顶山上不同生长状况（正常开花与不正常开花）的云锦杜鹃林地土壤理化性质作分析比较，表明两林地土壤物理性较理想，土壤中有机碳，全氮，水解性氮及土壤有效态微量元素含量均在较适的范围之内；而不正常开花林地土壤中有效磷，速效盼望缺乏，氮磷钾比例失调，这可能是引起云锦杜鹃不能正常开花的原因之一。
