The role of ectomycorrhizal fungi in alleviating pine decline in semiarid sandy soil of northern China: an experimental approach

The decline of Mongolian pine (Pinus sylvestris var. mongolica) trees on sandy land in northern China has caused serious ecological concerns. Mongolian pine is an ectomycorrhizal fungus (ECM)-dependent species. Three ECM species (Boletus sp., Lactarius deliciosus and L.sp.) were collected from Mongolian pine plantation stands to test their beneficial effects on Mongolian pine seedlings and their responses to environmental factors such as pH, drought stress and temperature. The results indicated that ECM inoculation significantly increased the rate of ECM colonization and the length of seedling shoots. The three ECM could grow in a pH range from 4 to 7, but did not grow under heavy drought stress (?1.53 MPa). High temperatures (over 37 °C) caused death of ECM. When related to soil pH, soil water content and temperature in the Mongolian pine plantations, water conditions and temperature were unfavorable for ECM growth in surface soil, but suitable in deeper soil. Therefore, it was concluded that the failure of natural regeneration in Mongolian pine plantations might be influenced by the lack of ECM in the surface soil because of high temperatures causing ECM death. Moreover, the majority of the root area is distributed in deeper soil, which alleviates the stresses on ECM development and arrests pine decline; this is beneficial for tree growth.

水稻雄性不育突变体012S-3的遗传分析和基因定位

雄性不育是水稻杂种优势利用的重要资源,对雄性不育现象的研究具有重要理论意义和实践价值。本研究以自然突变的水稻雄性不育突变体012S-3为试验材料,对其表型特征和花粉育性等进行调查,并构建遗传群体,利用分子标记对目的基因进行初步定位,然后应用基因组重测序技术对其进行精细定位。结果表明,012S-3是一个典型的无花粉普通型雄性不育材料,其不育性状受1对隐性核基因控制。初步定位分析目的基因与SSR标记RM6081存在连锁关系,其遗传距离约为34.4 c M;进一步的精细定位分析,找到3个候选基因:LOC_Os07g35880、LOC_Os07g35920和LOC_Os07g35940,其中LOC_Os07g35880和LOC_Os07g35940编码β-淀粉酶,属于水稻中新发现的花粉致死基因。该不育基因的成功定位为其进一步的分离克隆及其在水稻分子设计育种中的应用奠定了基础。     

高温胁迫对无柄小叶榕光合作用的影响

以无柄小叶榕为材料,研究了不同时间高温处理对无柄小叶榕气体交换参数、叶绿素荧光参数和Rubisco活力的影响.结果表明,随着高温处理的持续,净光合速率(Pn)持续下降,而气孔导度(Gs)下降非常缓慢,蒸腾速率(Tr)则先开始快速上升随后保持稳定,但是胞间CO2浓度(Ci)却没有明显变化.进一步研究发现,在高温胁迫下,开放PSII反应中心激发能捕获效率(Fv''/Fm'')、光化学猝灭(gP)、PSⅡ实际量子产额(Φ<,PSⅡ>)和电子传递速率(ETR)都持续下降.Rubisco初始活力下降速度则快于这些荧光参数的变化.非光化学猝灭(NPQ)14是先迅速上升后来略有下降.这些结果表明高温抑制无柄小叶榕的光合作用不是由于气孔因素引起的,而是由于高温抑制了Rubisco活力,进而影响PSⅡ活力和电子传递.     

不同杨树品种上杨干象幼虫酯酶同工酶的比较研究

采用聚丙烯酰胺不连续体系盘状电泳,研究和比较了不同杨树品种上的杨干象4龄幼虫酯酶同工酶。感虫杨树品种上的杨干象具有4条谱带,抗虫的具有5条谱带,多了一条迁移率为0.3的谱带,此带从无到有,越加明显、突出。从感虫到抗虫的杨树品种上的杨干象幼虫酯酶谱带有逐渐增加的趋势。这说明杨干象体内的酯酶参与次生有毒物质的代谢,并以此来适应寄生于抗虫的杨树品种上。

Field evaluation of insect-resistant transgenic Populus nigra trees

The performance of insect-resistant transgenic poplar trees (Populusnigra) expressing a Cry1Ac gene from Bacillus thuringiensis subsp. Kurstaki HD-1 against poplar defoliators was evaluated in the field at the Manas Forest Station in Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region during1994–1997. The results showed that the average percentage of highly damaged leaves on the transgenic trees was 10% while that on the control trees in nearby plantations reached 80–90%. The average number of pupae per m² of soil at 20cm depth in transgenic poplar plantation was 18 which was only 20% of that found in the non-transgenic control field. The number of pupae and the leaf-damage on transgenic trees described above are all far below the threshold set for chemical protection measures. The non-transformed poplar trees grown in the same plantation with the transgenic trees were also protected indicating that cross protection occurred between these two kinds of trees. Insect-resistant transgenic poplar trees have a potential application value in afforestation. This revised version was published online in August 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.
