Effects of Soil Copper Concentration on Growth, Development and Yield Formation of Rice （Oryza sativa）

Pot experiments were conducted in 2002 and 2003 to investigate the effects of soil copper（Cu） concentration on growth, development and yield formation of rice by using the japonica cultivar Wuxiangjing 14 and hybrid rice combination Shanyou 63. The plant height, leaf number, elongated internode number and heading date of rice plants were not affected at soil Cu levels below 200 mg/kg, but affected significantly at above 400 mg/kg. The inhibitory effects on rice growth and development were increased with the increment of soil Cu levels. The grain yields decreased significantly with raising soil Cu levels. The main reasons for the grain yield reductions under lower soil Cu levels （100, 200 mg/kg） were mainly due to the decrease of number of spikelets per panicle, however, under higher soil Cu levels （more than 400 mg/kg）, both panicle number and number of spikelets per panicle contributed to the yield loss. The decreases of panicle number by Cu stress were mainly attributed to slow recovery from transplanting, delayed tillering and reduced maximum tiller numbers. The reduction of number of spikelets per panicle under soil Cu stress resulted from the decreases of both shoot dry weight （SDW） at the heading date and the ratio of spikelets to SDW. Total biomass at maturity decreased significantly with the increase of soil Cu levels, while economic coefficient showed non-significant decrease except under soil Cu levels above 800 mg/kg.     

Induced Effects of Exogenous Phenolic Acids on Allelopathy of a Wild Rice Accession (Oryza longistaminata, S37)

Four exogenous phenolic acids,including salicylic acid,fumalic acid,p-coumaric acid and p-hydroxybenzonic acid,were used to investigate the regulatory effects on allelopathy of a wild rice accession of S37(Oryza longistaminata),which is a known allelopathic rice.The four exogenous phenolic acids induced the enhancement of the allelopathic potential of wild rice S37 in target weeds though the weed-suppressive activities were low,and the inducible effects were dependent on the specific phenolic acid,concentra...     

外源酚酸类物质对一个长雄蕊野生稻材料S37化感效应的调控作用

以长雄蕊野生稻S37为材料,生物测定外源水杨酸(salicylic acid)、阿魏酸(fumalic acid)、香豆酸(p-coumaric acid)和对羟基苯甲酸(p-hydroxybenzoic acid)在不同浓度和诱导时间下对长雄蕊野生稻S37化感抑草效应的影响,以探讨外源酚酸类物质对水稻化感效应的调控作用。结果表明,外源4种酚酸单剂对稗草的抑制活性较低,但能够诱导长雄蕊野生稻S37使其化感抑草效应增强,且这种诱导效应与外源酚酸的种类、浓度和诱导时间显著相关。叶面喷施4种酚酸后,野生稻S37对伴生稗草株高、根长和鲜质量的抑制率显著提高,其中阿魏酸处理组对稗草的抑制作用最强,在剂量为100mg/L时,对稗草株高和鲜质量的抑制率分别高出对照38.12和26.31个百分点。此外,长雄蕊野生稻S37在酚酸处理后不同时间的叶片水提液对稗草的抑制效应存在差异,处理后48h叶片水提液对稗草的抑制作用最强,后逐渐减弱。     

温度对不同叶龄长雄野生稻及其后代化感作用的影响

掌握温度对长雄野生稻(Oryza longistaminata)及其后代化感作用的影响,对开发利用野生种质资源的化感抗草基因具有重要意义。采用直接树脂吸收法收集不同叶龄长雄野生稻及其后代在各温度条件下的根系分泌物,并以稗草作为受体,测定其化感作用。结果表明:1)温度、叶龄和温度×叶龄对水稻化感作用的影响与其自身化感潜力正相关,且对强化感和中化感潜力水稻(OL、F1、RL159和RL169)的化感作用影响极显著,而对弱化感水稻(RD23和RL219)的化感作用影响不显著。2)供试条件下长雄野生稻及其后代根系分泌物对稗草的化感作用均为抑制作用,其中,低温不利于水稻化感潜力的发挥。15℃时,强和中化感潜力水稻在不同叶龄对稗草的苗高、根长和生物量的抑制作用最弱,化感综合效应指数也显著大于同等叶龄的高温处理。3)高温有利于水稻化感潜力的发挥,但并非总是随温度的升高而增强。在6叶期和8叶期,水稻材料OL、F1、RL159和RL169随温度的升高化感作用逐渐增强,但在2叶期和4叶期则表现为先增强后减弱,在25℃时对稗草化感作用最强。4)在15℃时,强和中等化感潜力水稻在2叶期化感作用最弱,而在其他温度条件下,其化感作用随叶龄的增加表现为先减弱后增强,在2叶期化感作用最强。研究结果显示,温度对不同叶龄的水稻化感作用具有调控作用,幼苗阶段高温有利于强和中化感潜力水稻化感作用的发挥。

Effects of Exogenous Glycinebetaine on Growth and Ultrastructure of Salt-Stressed Rice Seedlings (Oryza sativa L.)

Abstract

The effects of exogenously applied glycinebetaine on the salt-stress-induced inhibition of growth and ultrastructural damages in rice seedlings were investigated. Glycinebetaine was not effective in alleviating the NaCl-induced inhibition of root growth and rather enhanced the NaCl-induced inhibition. However, it was found to alleviate the inhibition of shoot growth induced by NaCl stress. Concentrations of Na were higher in salt-stressed plants than in unstressed plants. Stressed plants receiving glycinebetaine had a significantly lower Na and higher K concentrations in the shoots than the plants grown without application of glycinebetaine. Salinity induced ultrastructural damages in leaf such as swelling of thylakoids, disintegration of grana stacking and intergranal lamellae and destruction of mitochondria (deficiency of cristae, swelling and vacuolation). Such damages were largely prevented by pretreatment with glycinebetaine resulting in greening of the plants. In roots, the epidermis, cortex and root cap were more sensitive to salt stress than the meristem and stele. The most frequently observed ultrastructural alteration due to NaCl salinity was the formation of many large vacuoles in the root tip and root cap cells. The number of mitochondria was increased and they were aggregated in the cytoplasm of the root tip and root cap cells by treatment with NaCl or NaCl plus glycinebetaine. Glycinebetaine could not prevent the NaCl-induced ultrastructural damages in root cells. The effects of glycinebetaine to mitigate the ultrastructural damages in the chloroplast and mitochondria induced by NaCl might be due to the production of many vacuoles in root cells which may act to store Na and decrease its accumulation in the shoot.

Development of Novel Cytoplasmic Male Sterile Source from Dongxiang Wild Rice (Oryza rufipogon)

This study was conducted to develop and characterize a novel cytoplasmic male sterile(CMS)source which was identified from Dongxiang wild rice(Oryza rufipogon)by crossing Dongxiang wild rice as female with Zhongzao 35,an indica inbred variety,as male and continuous backcrossing with Zhongzao 35.Observation under optical microscope manifested that this novel CMS belonged to typical abortion type with less pollen compared with wild abortive type cytoplasm(CMS-WA).Sequential planting showed that this novel CMS has complete and stable male sterility.Testcross experiment showed that all the 24 tested materials including maintainer and restorer lines of CMS-WA and Honglian type cytoplasm(CMS-HL)and other indica inbred varieties are the maintainers with complete maintaining ability,suggesting that this novel CMS has fertility restoration totally different from CMS-WA and CMS-HL and belongs to a novel type of CMS.So far,we only discovered a unique fertility restoration source for this novel CMS.Inheritance analysis showed that the fertility restoration of this CMS was governed by three pairs of independent dominant genes.Prospect for application of this novel CMS system in hybrid rice breeding was also discussed.     

Identification and Genetic Analysis of Fertility Restoration Ability in Dongxiang Wild Rice(Oryza rufipogon)

Two populations of Dongxiang wild rice(Oryza rufipogon),Shuitaoshu and Dongtangshang,were crossed with five male sterile rice lines with different cytoplasmic backgrounds(B06S,Zhenshan 97A,Xieqingzao A,Zhong 9A,and Yuetai A),and the seed setting rate of the F1 was used to judge the fertility restoration ability in the Dongxiang wild rice.With P1.F1,P2,and F2 populations as materials,the Akaike's Information Criterion(AIC)was used to identify the major genes affecting quantitative traits,and when the major genes existed,the genetic effects of the major gene and the polygene and their genetic variance were estimated through segregation analysis.The seed setting rates of the F1 generation varied from 45.98%to 76.57%,suggesting that the Dongxiang wild rice had the fertility restoration ability.One major gone plus polygene mixed inheritance model was the most fitted genetic model for this trait in all the F2 populations.The heritability values of the major genes varied from 56.63%to 88.29%and those of the polygenes from 2.74%to 30.97%,and the total heritability values were from 63.1 7%to 94.01%.The major gone inheritance of the combination Zhong 9A/Dongtangshang was controlled by the additive effect without dominant effect,and the other nine combinations were by the completely dominant inheritance.

镍处理下水稻酚酸和酚多聚物含量的变化与白叶枯病诱导抗性的关系

 研究了镍处理下水稻叶片中总酚、酚酸、酚多聚物积累和细胞壁结合态过氧化物酶（POD）活性的变化。镍处理导致总酚含量显著上升,检测到10种可溶性酚酸和7种结合态酚酸。镍处理下可溶性绿原酸和水杨酸含量明显上升,而它们的结合态含量变化不明显;镍处理显著提高可溶性和结合态阿魏酸的含量,显著降低可溶性丁香酸和对 香豆酸的含量,却诱导其结合态含量增加。镍处理后酚多聚物明显积累,以阿魏酸和丁香醛为底物的细胞壁结合态POD的活性显著升高。这些结果结合以前的研究提示,酚酸和酚多聚物积累参与了镍诱导的水稻对白叶枯病的抗性。
