我国稻米加工工艺的沿革与展望

我国稻米加工起步于大规模采集野生稻的时期,最初是采用稻谷直接制成米的“稻出白”工艺,后来采用稻谷先制成糙米、糙米再制成米的“糙出白”工艺,两者构成了沿用几千年的古代稻米加工工艺;19世纪60年代开始,增加稻谷清理、白米整理等工段,构成了近代稻米加工工艺;到20世纪末,增加稻谷分级、下脚整理、稻壳整理、副产品整理、糙米精选、白米精选、白米色选、白米抛光等工序,构成现代稻米加工工艺;进入21世纪以来,新增了回砻谷净化、糙米净化、刷米与抛光组合、多道色选、留胚粒分选等工序,构成了当代稻米加工工艺;今后通过增加多等级大米联产、多等级大米与留胚米联产等专利加工工艺,将构成加工过程更加精准且智能化、低破碎、低能耗和环境友好的未来稻米加工工艺。     

超表达OsPR1A增强了Xa21介导的水稻对白叶枯病的抗性反应

【背景】前期研究发现,水稻病程相关蛋白质OsPR1A的表达受上游抗病基因Xa21调控,接菌后早期启动Xa21介导的OsPR1A较高水平表达对水稻抵抗白叶枯病菌至关重要。同时OsPR1A也受到水稻白叶枯病菌（Xanthomonas oryzae pv. oryzae,Xoo）的诱导表达。对于OsPR1A的研究绝大部分是作为抗性反应发生的标志基因佐证其他基因或途径在抗性中的作用,缺乏直接的证据证实OsPR1A本身的生物学功能。【目的】通过获得OsPR1a-OX超表达转基因植株,调查其表型及农艺性状,并明确OsPR1A蛋白质表达与抗性的关系,为鉴定OsPR1A功能提供依据。【方法】通过农杆菌介导法,将构建的OsPR1a-OX转化载体转入到水稻受体4021中,利用PCR和免疫印迹（western blot,WB）技术分别在基因水平和蛋白质水平上筛选并鉴定OsPR1A超表达阳性纯合株系。在成熟期,调查OsPR1A超表达转基因植株的表型及农艺性状（株高、穗长、分蘖数、结实率和籽粒大小等）。在31℃条件下,将生长2周的水稻幼苗TP309、4021和OsPR1A超表达转基因植株接种水稻白叶枯病菌,并在接菌0、2、4、6、8、10和12 d时测量病斑长度。在接菌0、4和6 d时,收集TP309、4021和OsPR1A超表达转基因植株的水稻叶片,提取蛋白质,利用WB技术检测OsPR1A的表达特征。【结果】构建了OsPR1a-OX转化载体,并转入到受体4021中,筛选并鉴定到2个OsPR1A超表达转基因纯合株系（#704和#709）。调查了OsPR1A超表达转基因植株在成熟期的表型及农艺性状,与对照4021相比,#704和#709的株高较矮、穗长较短、分蘖数减少、结实率降低,但籽粒稍大,可能与结实率低有关。在31℃条件下,OsPR1A超表达转基因植株的病斑长度与对照4021相比明显缩短,结果具有显著性差异（P<0.05）。在接菌0、4和6 d的材料中,超表达转基因植株#704和#709中OsPR1A始终有较高水平的表达丰度,从而提高了对白叶枯病菌的抗性。【结论】采用农杆菌介导法,获得OsPR1A超表达转基因植株;超表达OsPR1A影响到水稻的正常发育过程;超表达OsPR1A后增强了Xa21介导的水稻对白叶枯病的抗性。     

欧美国家针叶树容器苗生产与启示

针叶树是芬兰、瑞典、挪威、美国、加拿大等欧美国家主要的商品林树种。容器苗是针叶树重要的育苗类型。与裸根苗比较，容器苗具有育苗周期更短、造林季节可延长、苗木适应性更广、苗木质量更一致的优点。因此，容器育苗成为精准林业发展的必然趋势。为了借鉴欧美容器育苗的技术方法，提高我国容器苗的质量，为我国针叶树容器苗发展提供参考，文中主要从4个方面综述了欧美国家检测与提高苗木质量的方法，即列举了针叶树常用的苗木质量检测指标，总结了育苗容器与育苗基质的改良进展，介绍了养分、水分、光照与温度等培养条件的优化手段，简要概述了容器苗病虫害防控的进展，提出了我国相关树种容器苗生产的启示与借鉴。

5种生物制剂对马铃薯种薯萌芽、极端天气下植株生长和产量性状的影响

旨在满足马铃薯生产中茬口衔接、机械化生产技术应用、不利气候下稳产等对马铃薯出苗早、齐、壮的需求,以‘费乌瑞它’为供试品种,用基于有益活菌或工程菌提取物的5种生物制剂进行种薯处理,对多重性状进行了对比分析。5种生物制剂较常规化学制剂,均能够不同程度地促进种薯萌芽和芽根同生,出苗期提前2~7天,播种后49天的出苗率提高3.33%~17.78%。其中,表现最好的为酵母核苷酸衍生物和VDAL,种薯萌发和生根均显著高于对照。霜冻后,生物剂拌种处理在恢复前期促进植株生长,由此促进恢复后期的块茎发育,较常规化学处理增产8.39%~24.03%,体现了不同程度的保产效果。多马道黑、酵母核苷酸衍生物、根肽和VDAL体现出较好的保产效果,可作为种薯处理剂投入马铃薯生产。     

Effects of genes increasing the number of spikelets per panicle,TAW1 and APO1, on yield and yield-related traits in rice

The genes TAWAWA1 (TAW1) and ABERRANT PANICLE ORGANIZATION1 (APO1) increase the number of spikelets per panicle (SN). In the present study, we examined the effects of these genes on morphological traits, yield, and yield-related traits including yield components using the near-isogenic lines (NILs) in the genetic background of a japonica rice variety, Koshihikari – NIL-taw1, NIL-apo1-D3, and NIL-apo1-D4 – in a field experiment. The SN and total number of spikelets per area of the three NILs were larger than those of Koshihikari. However, the yield of the three NILs did not exceed that of Koshihikari due to their low filling ability. Interestingly, our field experiments indicated that TAW1 did not affect the diameter of internodes and the PN, whereas APO1 decreased the PN and increased the diameter of internodes. These results suggest that TAW1 and APO1 differently affect yield-related traits.     

Quantitative trait loci responsible for the difference in γ-oryzanol content in brown rice between japonica-type and indica-type rice cultivars

γ-Oryzanol is a main oleophilic component in rice bran oil and has been well recognized as a good dietary supplement for human health, as well as having uses in industrial materials. japonica-type rice cultivars generally showed significantly higher contents of total γ-oryzanol in brown rice compared with indica-type cultivars, although within-group variation was significant. The objective of this study was to explore quantitative trait loci (QTLs) responsible for the difference in the γ-oryzanol content between japonica-type and indica-type rice cultivars, using recombinant inbred lines (RILs), backcross inbred lines (BILs), and corresponding chromosome segment substitution lines (CSSLs) derived from crosses between japonica-type and indica-type. Results from RILs and BILs showed that eight QTLs were detected with R² from .09 to .16. Nine candidate regions for QTL were also suggested from corresponding CSSLs. These QTLs from RILs and BILs and the candidate regions from CSSLs were not overlapped, although one QTLs was mapped near the boundaries of the respective candidate region. At four QTLs and three candidate regions, alleles or segments from japonica-type caused higher contents than those from indica-type. On the other hand, at the other four QTLs and six candidate regions, alleles or segments from indica-type caused higher contents than those from japonica-type, which is a reverse result to the parental differences. This result strongly suggested that alleles with increasing effects on γ-oryzanol content could be accumulated not only from japonica-type but also from indica-type, leading to a potential for increase in γ-oryzanol content in future breeding programs.
