Analysis of introgression of the Tulipa fosteriana genome into Tulipa gesneriana using GISH and FISH

Southern hybridization and genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) have demonstrated that ‘Purissima’ (2n = 2x = 24) is an interspecific hybrid comprised of one genome of Tulipa (T.) gesneriana and one genome of T. fosteriana. Backcrossing T. gesneriana with ‘Purissima’ was partially successful. Simultaneous GISH and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) distinguished chromosomes from both parent genomes, as well as recombinant chromosomes, in interspecific hybrids and their progeny. Chromosome recombination was observed in all cultivars except ‘Purissima’ and ‘Kouki’ (2n = 3x = 36). ‘Kouki’ (2n = 3x = 36) had two genomes of the T. gesneriana and a single genome of the T. fosteriana. The number of nonrecombinant T. fosteriana chromosomes in ‘Judith Leyster’ (2n = 4x = 48) and ‘Purissima’ progeny varied from two in ‘Hatsuzakura’ to six in ‘Kikomachi’ and ‘Momotaro’. The number and type of recombinant chromosomes also differed among cultivars. The total number of translocations ranged from one in ‘Kikomachi’ to six in ‘Hatsuzakura’. Each was a combination of a single T. fosteriana fragment and a single T. gesneriana fragment, indicating that they resulted from a single crossover event. Sequential GISH and FISH analysis with rDNA probes yielded chromosome-specific markers that were used to identify most of the chromosomes in ‘Purissima’ progeny. This is the first report of introgression of T. fosteriana chromatin into the T. gesneriana genome.     

Genetic mapping of a new flowering time gene on chromosome 3B of wheat

The single chromosome substitution lines of chromosome 3B of the Czech alternative wheat variety Česká Přesívka (CP 3B) into two spring varieties Zlatka and Sandra, revealed clear differences in flowering time compared to the recipient varieties. To map this gene(s), recombinant substitution lines for chromosome 3B were produced from crosses of the substitution lines with their recipient parents and genetic maps developed using SSR markers. Two populations were mapped, Sandra//Sandra 3B/Sandra (CP 3B) and Zlatka//Zlatka/Zlatka (CP 3B). Combining the genotype data with phenotype data on flowering time in five independent experiments under natural long day or controlled short day conditions revealed a single flowering time QTL. This gene had an additive effect of 1–6 days, depending on environment and genetic background, and was mapped in both populations to a position in the region of marker Xbarc164 near the centromere on the long arm of 3B. Comparisons of the genetic maps with other 3B maps developed by the authors indicated that the QTL may be homologous to a QTL segregating in UK germplasm.

油萝卜抗胞囊线虫基因的染色体定位及其在油菜附加系中的稳定性

【目的】油萝卜（2n=18,9条染色体分别被称作a～i）具有抗甜菜胞囊线虫的基因。探索油萝卜携带的抗甜菜胞囊线虫基因所在的染色体和外源的油萝卜染色体在油菜中的遗传稳定性。【方法】9个油菜附加系进行自花受粉,分别获得附加系的自交F2代。利用筛选的分子标记检测和原位杂交（FISH）检测附加染色体在F2代中的遗传稳定性;通过对9个油菜附加系F2代接种甜菜胞囊线虫的2龄幼虫,鉴定携带抗甜菜胞囊线虫基因所在的染色体。【结果】9个附加系自交F2代中的附加染色体遗传表现不一,5个油菜附加系的F2代中均有2条附加染色体,能稳定遗传;4个附加系的自交后代中附加染色体的遗传表现不稳定,部分后代中无附加染色体。FISH检测9个附加系自交F2代中的附加染色体表明：与分子标记检测的结果相符,并且4个不稳定的附加系中,有的自交后代虽然有附加染色体,但有1或2条。接种甜菜胞囊线虫测定结果表明,含有油萝卜染色体DD的油菜附加系对甜菜胞囊线虫的抗性水平与附加染色体的供体油萝卜相当,而其它8个附加系的自交后代未表现出抗性,与受体油菜相近。【结论】油萝卜的9条染色体分别附加到油菜中后,其遗传稳定性因附加的染色体而异,有的能稳定遗传,有的在自交后代中丢失1或2条;抗甜菜胞囊线虫的基因在d染色体上。     

Genetic characterization of kernel polyphenol oxidases in wheat and related species

Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) activity causes undesirable darkening of raw Asian noodles and other wheat products. In this study we investigate the genetic origins and diversity of wheat kernel PPO. PPO was characterized via activity assays, antigenic staining, and Southern blots in Triticum aestivum, Triticum dicoccoides, Triticum durum, Triticum dicoccum, Triticum monococcum, Triticum urartu, Aegilops speltoides, and Aegilops tauschii. Among these species, PPO activity was well-correlated with antigenic staining intensity toward a wheat kernel-type PPO antibody. High PPO activity was observed in all three T. monococcum accessions (A^m genome), one Ae. speltoides accession, one T. durum accession, and two hexaploid wheat cultivars. Southern blots suggested the presence of two or more kernel-type PPO genes in diploid progenitors of the hexaploid A, B, and D genomes. Whole-kernel PPO activity was evaluated in disomic substitution lines derived from three T. dicoccoides accessions in the background of T. durum ‘Langdon’. PPO activity was primarily associated with chromosome 2A and to a much lower degree with chromosome 2B. DNA sequence comparisons showed that the intron associated with the high PPO allele on chromosome 2AL of hexaploid wheat had 94% nucleotide identity with the homeologous intron found in T. monococcum, a species with high kernel PPO activity. This implies that the ancestral PPO allele on the A genome is one of the high activity, and the low PPO allele found in hexaploid wheat represents a relatively recent genetic alteration. Results confirm the presence of multiple kernel-type PPO genes in the diploid and tetraploid progenitors and relatives of hexaploid wheat. However, it is likely that relatively few of the many kernel-type PPO genes present in wheat contribute substantially to kernel PPO activity. A single genetic locus on homeologous group 2 chromosomes may be the primary cause of high PPO activity in wheat kernels.

NaCl胁迫对不同染色体倍性西瓜种子发芽特性的影响

用盐水浸种催芽方法,通过对蜜枚西瓜的二倍体、三倍体、四倍体在不同浓度NaCl胁迫下种子的发芽率、胚轴长度以及鲜重、发芽指数、活力指数等指标的测定,在30~90mmol/L低浓度下,倍性之间相对发芽率没有明显差异;在120 mmol/L以上浓度时,不同倍性之间差异明显,在150mmol/L NaCl胁迫下,其M4x、M3x、M2x相对发芽率分别为77.8%、63.4%、30.6%,180mmol/L时分别为37.8%、31.7%、0,在210mmol/L时,M4x和M3x仍然有种子萌发,耐盐性为M4x＞M3x＞M2x。     

安徽一个水仙栽培种的核型研究

采用植物染色体根尖压片技术,对安徽一个水仙(Narcissus tazetta Var.chinese Roem.)栽培种进行了染色体核型研究。结果表明:该水仙种的体细胞染色体数目为2n=30,最长与最短染色体长度比为3.63,臂比2∶1的染色体比为0.87,核型不对称系数为70.04%,核型类型为进化程度较高的3B型;在第6组c染色体上有1个随体,核型公式为2n=3x=30=2m+10sm+t+17st(SAT),为节段异源三倍体。该栽培种与其他地区水仙的核型相比存在明显的细胞学差异,表现在随体的个数以及同源异源性方面,产生这种差异的原因可能是由于中国水仙不同变种在不同地区为适应生态环境和栽培条件而在染色体水平上产生了微小变异,这也是中国水仙遗传多样性的细胞学证据之一。
