Bph15在非洲栽培稻、药用野生稻和宽叶野生稻中的BAC-FISH比较物理定位

用覆盖抗褐飞虱基因Bph15的两个BAC克隆,即20M14 (27 kb)和64O9 (36 kb)作为探针,对非洲栽培稻、药用野生稻和宽叶野生稻体细胞染色体进行荧光原位杂交(FISH)。两个BAC克隆均被定位于非洲栽培稻和药用野生稻第4染色体的短臂上,杂交信号的百分距离分别为37.03±4.11和81.22±3.62,相应的信号检出率为41.18%和38.22%。在宽叶野生稻中,有两对同源染色体同时检出信号,分别定位于染色体的短臂和着丝粒区,信号距着丝粒平均百分距离分别为87.78±5.23和0,信号检出率为52.58%。由此推知,这两个BAC克隆在非洲栽培稻和药用野生稻的第4染色体分布同线且同区,并且在宽叶野生稻的DD基因组也存在Bph15基因的同源序列。在未封阻的情况下,BAC克隆在非洲栽培稻的多条染色体上有杂交信号,表明它和栽培稻C_0t-1 DNA在一定程度上具有同源性。上述结果初步显示Bph15在3个稻种染色体中的相对位置。文章讨论了Bph15在3个种间的关系,为有效分离和利用Bph15基因提供了有益的依据,对不同基因组及二倍体和四倍体中功能基因可能进化机制的分析提供了线索。

标记辅助培育水稻抗稻褐飞虱和稻白叶枯病基因聚合系

稻白叶枯病和稻褐飞虱是水稻的主要病虫害,利用优良的抗性基因培育抗性基因聚合系对于防治稻白叶枯病和稻褐飞虱具有重要意义。本研究通过回交与分子标记辅助选择相结合的方法,将抗稻白叶枯病基因Xa23和抗稻褐飞虱基因Bph3分别导入主栽杂交水稻品种的保持系先B、天B、盟B、龙特甫B和桂B中。结果表明,获得稳定的单抗性基因导入系1436份和双抗性基因聚合系144份。人工接种鉴定结果显示,Xa23导入系和Xa23Bph3聚合系对抗稻白叶枯水平达到中抗和接近高抗的水平(1.1～3.0级),Bph3导入系和Xa23Bph3聚合系抗褐飞虱水平达中抗到抗的级别(3.2～4.0级)。农艺性状分析显示多数抗性基因聚合系的株高、剑叶长宽度、每穗粒数、结实率、千粒重等主要农艺性状与受体差异不显著,只有少数聚合系有1～2个性状的差异。SSR标记分析表明抗性基因聚合系的遗传背景回复率达89.6%～97.8%,等位性位点纯合度达95.6%～99.9%。初步证明本研究已成功地获得抗稻白叶枯病和稻褐飞虱基因的聚合系,这些抗性改良保持系具有良好的应用前景,并为建立完善的分子设计育种平台提供了重要育种材料基础。     

Exploring genetic diversity of rice cultivars for the presence of brown planthopper (BPH) resistance genes and development of SNP marker for Bph18

Brown planthopper (BPH) is the most devastating insect pest in rice‐growing areas. Information on availability of BPH resistance alleles and their sources enhances BPH‐resistant breeding programmes. In this study, 260 highly diversified rice cultivars or breeding lines were screened for the presence of five major BPH resistance genes (Bph10, Bph13, Bph18, Bph20 and Bph21) using gene‐specific markers. The analysis revealed that 137 of the 260 cultivars possess at least one BPH resistance gene. Bph10 was predominant while Bph20 was the least distributed. Moreover, two and three different resistance gene combinations were found in the cultivars. Molecular markers play an important role in molecular breeding programmes. A tightly linked PCR‐based co‐dominant Bph18 marker was developed, which is cost effective and time effective and simpler than available Bph18 CAPS marker (7312.T4A). We strongly believe that the identified BPH‐resistant cultivars can be used as alternative resistance gene sources and also as resource for novel BPH resistance genes. The developed Bph18 marker will be highly useful in molecular breeding applications of BPH‐resistant breeding programmes.

RFLP/AFLP mapping of a brown planthopper (Nilaparvata lugens Stål) resistance gene Bph1 in rice

We have constructed a linkage map of the rice brown planthopper (BPH)resistance gene, Bph1. RFLP and AFLP markers were selected by thebulked segregant analysis and used in the mapping study of 262 F₂sthat were derived from a cross of `Tsukushibare', a susceptible japonica cultivar, and `Norin-PL3', an authentic japonicaBph1-introgression line. Twenty markers were mapped within a 28.9-cMregion containing the Bph1 locus on the long arm of rice chromosome12. Combining the result of segregation analysis of BPH resistance by themass seedling test and that of the markers, the Bph1 locus wasmapped within a 5.8-cM region between two flanking markers. The closestAFLP markers, em5814N and em2802N, was at 2.7 cM proximal to theBph1 locus. Together with the previously constructed high-resolutionmap of bph2 locating the locus at ca. 10 cM proximal to the Bph1 locus, this improved version of the linkage map would facilitatepyramiding these two important BPH resistance genes.     

栎属4个树种秋冬叶色与生理变化的关系

为了研究栎类树种秋冬转色期叶色变化的生理机制,以栎属4个树种——鲜红栎(Quercus coccinea)、纳塔栎(Quercus nuttallii)、沈氏栎(Quercus shumardi)、针栎(Quercus palustris)为试材,测定其秋冬转色期叶绿素、类胡萝卜素、花色素苷3种色素和可溶性糖、可溶性蛋白质含量变化。结果表明:叶绿素a、叶绿素b、总叶绿素含量均呈先快后慢的下降趋势;类胡萝卜素含量鲜红栎和沈氏栎呈现下降-上升-下降的趋势,其他2个树种呈平缓下降的趋势;花色素苷含量呈波动上升趋势;叶绿素a与叶绿素b的比值变化趋势前中期较为平缓,后期迅速下降;鲜红栎的可溶性糖含量为单峰曲线,其他3个树种呈双峰曲线,与花色素苷相关性不显著;蛋白质含量与花色素苷含量呈正相关。     

病原诱导的中间偃麦草ERF转录因子基因的克隆及其表达特性

应用RT-PCR、RACE技术，从病原诱导的中间偃麦草叶片cDNA中，分离出1个编码ERF基因的全长cDNA序列，该基因暂命名为TiERF1a，编码由292个氨基酸组成的蛋白质，具有ERF转录因子典型的结构，即保守的AP2/ERF DNA 结合域、核定位位点和酸性激活区。TiERF1a的氨基酸序列与一个水稻ERF蛋白OsBIERF3具有66%的同源性，与拟南芥AtERF1同源性仅39.7%，为植物ERF转录因子家族B3亚群的一个新成员。表达分析结果表明，纹枯病菌、赤霉病菌侵染可诱导TiERF1a基因的上调表达，与防卫相关的激素乙烯、茉莉酸也可诱导该基因上调表达，且TiERF1a对外源乙烯、茉莉酸的响应时期早于对纹枯病菌、赤霉病菌响应时期，说明TiERF1a可能通过乙烯、茉莉酸信号途径参与寄主调控对纹枯病菌、赤霉病菌的防御反应。

Genetic and environmental effects on glucosinolate content and chemoprotective potency of broccoli

Broccoli is well recognized as a source of glucosinolates and their isothiocyanate breakdown products. Glucoraphanin is one of the most abundant glucosinolates present in broccoli and its cognate isothiocyanate is sulphoraphane, a potent inducer of mammalian detoxication (phase 2) enzyme activity and anti‐cancer agent. This study was designed to measure: glucosinolate levels in broccoli florets from an array of genotypes grown in several environments; the elevation of a key phase 2 enzyme, quinone reductase, in mammalian cells exposed to floret extracts; and total broccoli head content. There were significant environmental and genotype‐by‐environment effects on levels of glucoraphanin and quinone reductase induction potential of broccoli heads; however, the effect of genotype was greater than that of environmental factors. The relative rankings among genotypes for glucoraphanin and quinone reductase induction potential changed, when expressed on a per head basis, rather than on a concentration basis. Correlations of trait means in one environment vs. means from a second were stronger for glucoraphanin and quinone reductase induction potential on a per head basis than on a fresh weight concentration basis. Results of this study indicate that development of a broccoli phenotype with a dense head and a high concentration of glucoraphanin to deliver maximum chemoprotective potential (high enzyme induction potential/glucoraphanin content) is a feasible goal.     

Managing the hinterland beyond: Two ideal‐type strategies of economic development for small island territories

Abstract: Rarely does one come across critical analysis which looks at islands as the strategic and candid promoters of a role as political and economic usufructuaries over external resources. This paper is premised on the proposition that a small territory is especially obliged to use extra‐territorial resources as its hinterland for economic success. Such resources extend over a whole range of goods and services and include access to investment, welfare, security, stable currency, international relations, specialised labour power, transfers, markets and higher education. The MIRAB syndrome is one way of articulating this condition. This paper proposes a second cluster of features that are, or can be, deployed by small territories in a manner somewhat different from MIRAB; this second cluster has a more proactive policy orientation and a disposition towards carving out procedural and jurisdictional powers. It is thus proposed to consider a small territory's engagement with the external hinterland as a position on a sliding scale, a strategic mix of options located between two distinct development trajectories, of which MIRAB is one and the PROFIT model the other.     

番茄转录因子基因SlYAB2a的克隆、表达及亚细胞定位分析

为了研究番茄SlYAB2a基因的功能及其在番茄生长发育中的分子机理,以番茄的cDNA为模板,利用RTPCR技术从番茄中克隆到SlYAB2a基因,该基因编码的蛋白质由192个氨基酸残基组成,蛋白质的分子量为21.35k Da,等电点是8.79,平均亲水系数是-0.487。SlYAB2a蛋白质的6~165位氨基酸残基形成Pfam:YABBY结构域,在20~47位有1个C2C2锌指结构域,在122~181位有1个螺旋-环-螺旋结构域。二级结构分析表明SlYAB2a蛋白分子中,α-螺旋占19.79%、β-折叠占14.06%、其余66.15%为不规则卷曲。蛋白多序列比对表明SlYAB2a与马铃薯、林烟草、酿酒葡萄、大豆、拟南芥、甘蓝型油菜、花药野生稻、玉米和小麦YABBY2的一致性分别为98%,78%,71%,65%,64%,64%,58%,57%,57%,说明SlYAB2a蛋白与来源于双子叶植物的YABBY2一致性较高,而与来源于单子叶植物的一致性较低。通过聚类分析发现YABBY2蛋白明显分为单子叶和双子叶2个亚类,SlYAB2a蛋白属于双子叶亚类,与马铃薯、潘那利番茄、绒毛状烟草、林烟草等的YABBY2蛋白序列亲缘关系较近。实时定量RT-PCR分析结果表明,在番茄植物的不同生长发育时期,根、茎、叶、花、果实中,都有SlYAB2a基因表达;并且在花和青熟果实中,SlYAB2a基因表达水平远远高于其他组织。说明SlYAB2a基因在花和果实的发育过程中起着重要作用。洋葱表皮细胞瞬时表达结果表明SlYAB2a蛋白定位于细胞核中。     

CIMMYT普通小麦籽粒硬度等位变异的检测

籽粒硬度主要由5D染色体短臂的一对主效基因Ha控制,研究籽粒硬度等位变异有助于提高小麦的磨粉和食品加工品质。本试验对国际玉米小麦改良中心（CIMMYT）的138份历史品种和代表性高代品系的硬度基因型进行了研究。在用SDS-PAGE鉴定Pina-D1b/Pinb-D1a时,用10%甘油代替水配制分离胶,用PDA代替甲叉配制分离胶和浓缩胶,增强了PINA和PINB两种蛋白带型的分辨率。结果表明,与其他国家硬质麦中Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1b类型偏多的特点明显不同,CIMMYT硬质小麦中puroindoline a（PINA）蛋白缺失类型（或称Pina-D1b/Pinb-D1a）较多,为118个,占85.5%;Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1a（野生型）为11个,占8.0%;Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1b类型有9个,占6.5%。其中,PINA缺失对小麦籽粒硬度的影响最大,与其他2种基因型硬度值之间差异达5%显著水平。先前研究结果表明,PINA蛋白缺失类型的磨粉品质和面包烘烤品质均劣于Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1b类型,因此,建议CIMMYT多引进一些其他硬度变异类型的小麦种质,如Pina-D1a/Pinb-D1b类型等,以改善其硬度基因型过度单一的局面,从而减少PINA蛋白缺失带来的不利影响。同时,也提醒我国以其他用途如抗病、抗旱等为目的,引种CIMMYT小麦时,还应充分考虑PINA蛋白缺失对磨粉和加工品质的不利影响,以更合理引进和有效利用CIMMYT种质资源。     

Polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of wheat gliadins: the use of a moving boundary for improved resolution

Summary The process of the separation of gliadin proteins of wheat, using polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, was studied in detail. It was shown that electrophoresis is a dynamic process during which the pH of the gel changes together with the potassium ion concentration. The most positive effect on the separation of the gliadins was generated by a moving front, which is a boundary between regions with a low concentration of K⁺ ions and a low pH, and region with a high concentration of K⁺ ions and a high pH, after optimization of the concentrations of the cations and anions in the electrode solutions. The finding was exploited for the development of an extremely simple electrophoresis system, in which buffers were not needed for obtaining a high resolution. The system was further improved by applying a stacking gel. The advantages of this system are discussed. This new approach may be useful for improving electrophoresis systems for other applications.

Traits of shattering resistant buckwheat ‘W/SK86GF’

Seed shattering is a significant problem with buckwheat, especially at harvesting time. Several reports have shown that a green-flower mutant of buckwheat, such as W/SK86GF, has a strong pedicel. Although a strong pedicel may provide some resistance to shattering in the field, no study has thoroughly examined this issue. In this paper, we demonstrate that a W/SK86GF has shattering resistance by comparing the degrees of shattering of W/SK86GF and Kitawasesoba (leading variety of Hokkaido with non-green-flower traits) through a test for four years, including a typhoon hit year in the field. In a non-typhoon year, the shattering seed ratio (shattering seed weight/(yield + shattering seed weight) × 100) of W/SK86GF at maturing time +15 days (+15D) was lower than that of Kitawasesoba. In a typhoon hit year, the shattering seed ratios of Kitawasesoba at maturing time and +15D were surprisingly high, 14.4 and 21.1%, respectively. On the other hand, those of W/SK86GF were only 3.08% and 2.57%, respectively; indicating W/SK86GF is promising as a shattering resistant line even in a typhoon hit year. From these results, shattering resistance of W/SK86GF can be evaluated after maturing time such as +15D and pedicel strength would confer W/SK86GF a shattering resistant trait.     

The degree of phenotypic similarity of near-isogenic lines of the wheat cultivar Centana with their recurrent parent

Summary The degree of phenotypic similarity of Centana and its near-isogenic lines (NILs) has been investigated. Some NILs have a disease reaction, a gliadin pattern and a yield level which differs from Centana. This means that they still possess many donor genes. One of the NILs, Shortana, must be a derivative of a backcross line crossed with an unknown genotype resulting in a good yielding variety.     

A Potential Screening System for Identifying Sorghum Ecotypes with Increased Lysine in the Seeds

Classical “high-lysine” sorghum lines are characterized by smaller seeds than average, due to a decrease in prolamin synthesis and a subsequent decrease in yield. To exploit the natural variation in lysine content and to identify ecotypes with a seed lysine content higher than average, characterized by plump seeds, a method was developed based on root-growth inhibition of seeds growing on a medium containing aminoethylcysteine (AEC), a lysine analogue. By using a collection of sorghum mutants and ecotypes a correlation coefficient of 0.926 between root length and lysine content was established. This method, which uses the root length of plants growing on aec to indicate which lines have a potential elevated lysine content, can be applied for the screening of sorghum germplasm. Since this is a non-destructive method it can also be used at the individual seed level, for example for screening progenies of regenerated plants from in vitro culture to exploit the somaclonal variation.
