高羊茅种质光合及叶绿素荧光参数对高温胁迫的响应

以21个高羊茅(Festuca arundinacea)种质为试材,在室内模拟35℃和45℃高温胁迫,测定了各高羊茅种质光合和叶绿素荧光参数,探讨高羊茅对高温胁迫的光合适应机制,并利用隶属函数法综合评价种质间耐热性强弱。研究结果表明,高温胁迫对光合参数和叶绿素荧光参数的影响非常显著(P< 0.05)。随着高温胁迫强度的增加,各高羊茅种质的净光合速率(P_n)、蒸腾速率(T_r)、最大光化学效率(F_v/F_m)、实际光量子产量(Yield)和光化学猝灭系数(qP)等参数均呈下降趋势;而叶片非光化学荧光猝灭系数(NPQ)则呈现先升高后降低的变化趋势。利用隶属函数法综合3个温度梯度下21个高羊茅种质的综合耐热D值,可以推测出各种质耐热性顺序为:Ⅲ-17> Ⅲ-3> Ⅱ-11> Ⅰ-17> Ⅰ-7> Ⅰ-4> Ⅳ-3> Ⅳ-2> 水城> Ⅱ-13> Ⅱ-10> Ⅰ-12> Ⅳ-1> Ⅳ-5> Ⅱ-3> 黔草1号> Ⅲ-8> Ⅲ-11> Ⅳ-4> Ⅰ-20> Ⅱ-15。     

Canine Haematopoietic Chimerism Analyses by Semiquantitative Fluorescence Detection of Variable Number of Tandem Repeat Polymorphism

Canine models are successfully applied to the study of haematopoietic stem cell transplantation (HSCT). Monitoring of haematopoietic donor/recipient chimerism is of major significance in detecting and quantifying engraftment or graft rejection of the donor-derived haematopoietic cells after transplantation. Radioactive analyses of polymorphic microsatellite markers are commonly used for chimerism analyses. We describe an improved, non-isotopic method that is based on the analysis of microsatellite markers in donor and recipient cells using capillary electrophoresis and fluorescence detection. Artificial mixtures of donor and recipient DNA that were generated from peripheral blood mononuclear cells from dog leukocyte antigen-identical siblings were used to analyse the sensitivity of the assay. DNA from dogs that had received HSCT were also analysed in order to demonstrate the feasibility of the method in vivo. For chimerism analyses, six different microsatellite loci were systematically amplified using fluorescent PCR primer. The fluorescent polymerase chain reaction products were separated by capillary electrophoresis using POP4 on a 310 ABI Prism Genetic Analyzer. After electrophoresis, fluorescence signals were automatically sized and quantified using GeneScan software. The method described provides an accurate assessment of haematopoietic chimerism in the canine model with significantly reduced hands-on time compared to conventional gel electrophoresis.     

Flow-cytometric Studies of the Phagocytic Capacities of Equine Neutrophils

Methodological aspects of flow-cytometric evaluation of the phagocytic properties of equine neutrophils were elucidated. The kinetics of attachment and ingestion were studied, and the phagocytic process was more rapidly completed when serum-opsonized yeast cells were used than with use of IgG-opsonized yeast cells. Trypan blue was successfully used to quench fluorescence of non-ingested yeast cells. There were only minor differences in the kinetics of phagocytosis between quenched and un-quenched samples, indicating that attachment is rapidly followed by ingestion. Trypan blue quenching caused loss of cells with light scattering properties of granulocytes, although this did not affect the determined frequencies of truly phagocytic neutrophils. Aggregation of yeast cells proved to be a disturbance but not an obstacle to the determination of frequencies of actively phagocytic cells. Flow cytometry is well suited for studies of phagocytosis of yeast cells by equine neutrophils, and the trypan blue quenching provides a means of eliminating false-positive events due to aggregation of yeast cells. The main advantage of the flow-cytometric method is the possibility of rapid processing of a large number of samples, making the method useful for studies of herds.     

温度胁迫对柱花草叶绿素荧光参数和光合速率的影响

为了探讨柱花草对不同温度的适应机制,以播种后40 d的幼苗为试验材料,在光照培养箱内分别用高温(36℃)处理5 d,低温(6℃)处理2 d,并以常温(25℃)处理5 d为对照,测定光合速率及叶绿素荧光参数等相关指标在不同温度胁迫下的变化。结果表明,低温处理2 d,叶绿素荧光参数的最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、光系统Ⅱ电子传递量子效率(Ф_PSⅡ)、光化学猝灭系数(qP) 和非光化学猝灭系数(NPQ)、叶片光合速率、叶片ATP含量及RuBPcase和FBPase活性显著降低;而高温处理5 d对其光合效率没有产生明显的抑制作用。在温度胁迫条件下,足够的ATP供应对保证柱花草的光合能力是有必要的。     

不同水肥条件下白羊草光合生理生态特征研究 Ⅲ.叶绿素荧光参数

本研究揭示了不同土壤养分条件下,黄土丘陵区乡土草种白羊草(Bothriochloa ischaemum L.Keng.)对土壤水分短期变化的光合生理响应及其适应性,旨在为充分发挥其光合潜力以及黄土丘陵区白羊草人工草地的建设与管理提供科学依据。采用盆栽控制试验,比较研究3种养分(CK,P和NP)处理下白羊草叶绿素荧光动力学参数对土壤短期水分胁迫和旱后复水的响应特征。结果表明:充分供水条件下,P与NP处理显著提高了白羊草叶片最大光化学效率(F_v/F_m)和实际光化学效率(Φ_PSⅡ),使表观光合电子传递速率(ETR)升高,且降低了非辐射性能量耗散(NPQ)。短期干旱胁迫下,P与NP处理的F_v/F_m降幅显著低于CK处理,复水1 d后的F_v/F_m恢复水平均显著高于CK处理(P<0.05),表明P和NP营养有助于增强白羊草对短期干旱胁迫的耐旱性及复水后叶片光合功能的恢复能力。     

Premature centromere division (PCD) identified in a hucul mare with reproductive difficulties

A hucul mare with reproductive abnormalities was examined during karyotype analysis. The karyotype was analysed based on evaluation of 860 metaphase plates in chromosome preparations. The use of fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) with an X chromosome painting probe showed premature X chromosome separation in 9.5% cases of examined chromosome spreads. In this report, we present the first identify premature centromere division (PCD) as a possible cause of abnormal X chromosome morphology in horses and as a probable cause of reproductive difficulties.

高温胁迫下银杏离体枝条叶片的叶绿素荧光特性

银杏是一种重要经济树种,随着全球气温升高,高温适应性问题已经影响了其在低纬度区域的栽培。为了探明高温胁迫对银杏叶片光合过程的影响,本研究中离体银杏枝条被置于不同温度（25 ℃、30 ℃、35 ℃、40 ℃、45 ℃）下处理,随即对其叶绿素荧光参数进行监测。 结果显示：40 ℃以上高温胁迫下,银杏叶片的光系统II（PSⅡ）潜在光化学效率（Fv/Fo）、最大光化学效率（Fv/Fm）显著下降;最大荧光（Fm）、最大相对电子传递速率（rETRmax）、PSⅡ实际光化学效率（Yield）、光化学淬灭系数（qP）均显著下降;而初始荧光（Fo）和非光化学淬灭系数（NPQ）在40℃以上高温胁迫下显著上升。本研究表明,银杏离体枝条叶片光合作用对温度变化较敏感,推测高温可能伤害了光合机构,从而对光能的吸收、转换与光合电子传递都有显著的影响。银杏离体枝条叶片的叶绿素荧光动力学参数对高温的敏感性,可能有助于快速筛选和培育耐高温的银杏品种。
