用RAPD和SSR分子标记鉴定小金海棠F1代 杂种实生苗的研究

小金海棠（Malus xiaojinensis）具有多种抗逆特性，是苹果属植物中一种珍贵的野生种质资源。由于小金海棠具有无融合生殖特性，早期准确、快速、有效地鉴定其F1代杂种实生苗对于研究利用其众多抗逆基因具有重要意义。RAPD技术是现有鉴定果树杂种实生苗最为简单、快速和有效的分子标记技术，但RAPD技术本身存在一定的不稳定性。笔者对小金海棠和山荆子（M. baccata）F1代杂交实生苗79个单株进行了RAPD分析，并用SSR标记对RAPD标记的初步鉴定结果进行了进一步的验证。结果显示，RAPD标记鉴定出的杂种实生苗有72.2%得到SSR标记的证实。研究的结果还表明，“叠加”和“新带”两种RAPD带型，结合RAPD标记特异位点数可以为小金海棠F1代杂种实生苗提供可靠的鉴定依据。研究为利用RAPD技术早期快速鉴定果树杂种实生苗提供了新的信息和依据。     

Mitochondrial DNA Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphisms in Malus Species

Three apple (Malus×domestica) cultivars and 11 Malus accessions have been investigated by the probe hybridization method on their mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA). The gene probes used were: coxI, coxII, atpA, atp6, and atp9. Our results revealed enough variation to characterize ten mtDNA haplotypes among the Malus genotypes examined. The taxonomic and phylogenetic implications of mtDNA polymorphism are also discussed.

用聚乙二醇(Polyethylene glycol,PEG6000)处理新疆野苹果(Malus sieversii(Ledeb)Roem.)幼苗。通过对其叶片及根系中各细胞器的超微结构分析发现,干旱胁迫能诱导新疆野苹果发生细胞程序性死亡,并具有以下特点:随着干旱处理时间的延长,根系中各细胞器形态结构发生变化的时间普遍早于叶片;同是叶片,海绵组织中各细胞器形态结构发生变化的时间早于栅栏组织;同是根系,皮层细胞中各细胞器形态结构变化的时间普遍早于中柱细胞。     

观赏性小苹果“特丽”的组织培养及快速繁殖技术

以MS为基本培养基，以观赏性小苹果“特丽”的茎段为外植体，建立了无菌培养体系，研究了不同的激素配比和不同茎段类型对增殖培养的影响以及不同的生长素组合对试管苗生根的影响。结果表明：MS+BA0.5 mg/L~2.0mg/L+NAA0.1mg/L均为适合的芽萌发培养基；MS+BA1.5mg/L+IBA0.1mg/L是最适合的茎段增殖培养基；继代增殖培养取留顶芽无侧芽和去顶芽带有1~2个侧芽两种类型的茎段有利于提高增殖系数；1/2MS+0.2mg/L IAA是最佳生根培养基。试管苗增殖系数达到5.6，生根率达91.9%。     

一氧化氮对铜、镉胁迫下平邑甜茶幼苗活性氧代谢的影响

利用一氧化氮供体硝普纳（sodium nitroprusside,SNP）,研究了一氧化氮对铜、镉胁迫下平邑甜茶幼苗的活性氧代谢的影响。结果表明：在200μM的CuCl2或CdCl2处理下,25～200uM的SNP能够提高平邑甜茶幼苗根系和叶片的SOD,POD活性,降低根系和叶片的超氧阴离子（O-2）产生速率及丙二醛（MDA）含量,表明适当浓度的一氧化氮可以通过提高部分抗氧化酶活性来缓解铜、镉胁迫对平邑甜茶幼苗的伤害。     

新疆野苹果天然群体抗寒性的电阻抗图谱分析

以新疆巩留县和新源县2个居群下的7个新疆野苹果群体当年生枝条为材料,应用EIS法对各群体抗寒性进行测定,并与电导率法进行对比分析。结果表明:巩留和新源2个居群内群体间的半致死温度差异不显著,2个居群间的差异显著,巩留居群的半致死温度显著低于新源居群,证明巩留居群的抗寒性高于新源居群。电阻抗图谱法单-DCE模型中6个参数(τ,ψ,r,r1,re,ri)中,r1,re,τ3个参数可以得出供试样品的半致死温度,其中r1,re所得的半致死温度与电导率法相关系数达到极显著水平,说明参数r1,re适用于新疆野苹果的抗寒性测定。电阻抗图谱法(EIS)与电导率法的抗寒性测定结果基本一致,但省时、不需温育,具有更大优越性。     

Fruit maturity affects the response of apples to heat stress

Quality changes of apple fruit at different maturity stages in response to heat stress were investigated. ‘Jonagold’ and ‘Cortland’ apples at immature (pre-climacteric), commercial harvest maturity (CHM) and post climacteric maturity (PCM, CHM plus 4 weeks) were harvested and held at 46 °C for 0, 4, 8, or 12 h. Following treatments, fruits were stored in air at 0 °C and evaluated after 0, 1, 2, or 3 months. Quality indices including peel and flesh browning, firmness, titratable acidity, soluble solids, chlorophyll fluorescence (CF), and ethanol production were measured. Results indicated that different cultivars and maturities affected the fruit's resistance to heat stress. ‘Jonagold’ was more resistant to heat stress than ‘Cortland’. Fruit at PCM were most sensitive to heat stress, followed by fruits at CHM and immature stages. When ‘Jonagold’ apples at immature and CHM stages were held at 46 °C for 12 h and then stored for 3 months, flesh browning ratings were negligible compared with 1.4 or 2.9, respectively in ‘Cortland’. Flesh browning rating increased to 1.4 or 4.5 in PCM ‘Jonagold’ held at 46 °C for 8 or 12 h and then stored for 3 months while it was 4.9 or 5.0, respectively, in ‘Cortland’. Heat treatment-induced flesh injury was associated with a decrease in CF. After fruit were exposure to 46 °C for 12 h and then stored for 3 months, Fv/Fm was reduced by 13%, 30%, and 55% in ‘Jonagold’ at immature maturity, CHM and PCM, respectively, while it was reduced by 51%, 58% and 75%, respectively, in ‘Cortland’. Heat stress also caused a decrease in fruit titratable acidity, but had no effect on soluble solids contents. The 8 or 12 h heat treatment resulted in an increase in ethanol production, which was greatest in PCM apples.     

Intercepted radiation by apple canopy can be used as a basis for irrigation scheduling

Improved approaches for irrigation scheduling require specific protocols for adaptation to different growing conditions. We assessed crop intercepted radiation as the main factor for decision on irrigation scheduling. Over two growing seasons (2007-2008), apple trees growing in a large weighing lysimeter were used to measure daily canopy transpiration (T_d). Seasonal patterns of daily canopy intercepted photosynthetically active radiation (IPAR_d) and midday stem water potential were also measured. In 2007, irrigation was withheld in two different times to study T_d responses to midday stem water potential. Before harvest, under full irrigation, T_d increased linearly with IPAR_d (R² = 0.81 in 2007 and 0.84 in 2008). With the two year data combined, R² increased from 0.74 to 0.80 when VPD was considered as a second variable. When irrigation was withheld in 2007 the ratio between T_d and IPAR_d, which is defined here as transpiratory radiation use efficiency (TRUE), decreased linearly (R² = 0.49) as midday stem water potential decreased. Due to the highly significant effect of IPAR_d and VPD on T_d, TRUE showed potential applications in estimating the amount of irrigation water.     

水分胁迫对桃、草莓、板栗和平邑甜茶叶片、茎及根中甜菜碱含量的影响

以桃、草莓、板栗和平邑甜茶4个树种为试材,对水分胁迫下其叶片、茎以及根中甜菜碱含量的变化进行了初步探讨,结果表明:在正常供水条件下,各树种的叶片、茎和根中都有一定量的甜菜碱,不同树种、同一树种的不同器官甜菜碱的含量均不同;板栗的甜菜碱含量最高,平邑甜茶的含量最低;叶片的甜菜碱含量最高,根部的含量最低。水分胁迫下,各树种的甜菜碱含量都显著增加,不同树种变化幅度不一。胁迫程度不同,甜菜碱含量的变化趋势也不同。轻度水分胁迫下,平邑甜茶增幅最大,其次是桃和草莓,板栗增幅最小;中度水分胁迫下,平邑甜茶的增幅最大,其次是板栗、桃、草莓。
