乳酸菌噬菌体的分离及生物学特性鉴定

为了解乳酸菌噬菌体的生物学特性,并为制定乳酸菌发酵生产过程中噬菌体污染的防控措施提供试验数据和参考,本研究通过斑点试验和双层琼脂平板法,以干酪乳杆菌（L. casei） ATCC 393、戊糖乳杆菌（L. pentosus） KLDS 1.0413、短小乳杆菌（L. brevis） ATCC 367为指示菌从乳制品、泡菜样品中分离乳酸菌噬菌体,通过透射电镜观察噬菌体形态,噬菌体基因组限制性内切酶作用分析其包装机制,并进行宿主范围和一步生长曲线的测定,SDS-PAGE分析噬菌体结构蛋白,对获得的噬菌体进行生物学特性鉴定。结果显示,分离获得3株烈性乳酸菌噬菌体,依次命名为Lc、Lpen和Lbre。电镜结果显示,噬菌体Lc、Lpen均由多面体头部和非收缩性尾部组成,而噬菌体Lbre由多面体头部和收缩性尾部组成。根据形态学分析,Lc和Lpen属于长尾噬菌体科（Siphoviridae）,B1类,Lbre属于肌尾噬菌体科（Myoviridae）,A1类。噬菌体基因组经限制性内切酶作用后,核酸电泳结果显示,噬菌体Lc、Lpen基因组均为异质平末端,其包装机制属满头包装,即pac-型,而Lbre含有黏性末端,其包装机制属于cos-型。宿主范围测定结果显示,噬菌体Lc、Lbre对宿主专一,而Lpen宿主谱较广。一步生长曲线显示,噬菌体Lc、Lpen和Lbre潜伏期分别为60、45和150 min,裂解期分别为45、90和105 min,裂解量分别为47、24和30 PFU/cell。SDS-PAGE分析显示,噬菌体Lc结构蛋白有7个,主要结构蛋白分子质量约为50 ku;噬菌体Lpen和Lbre结构蛋白均有5个,主要结构蛋白分子质量分别约为55和50 ku。综上,本研究分离获得3株乳酸菌烈性噬菌体,并对其主要生物学特性进行鉴定,对了解乳酸菌噬菌体及后续乳酸菌噬菌体污染的防治提供了试验数据和理论依据。

Accuracy of genomic prediction using imputed whole‐genome sequence data in white layers

There is an increasing interest in using whole‐genome sequence data in genomic selection breeding programmes. Prediction of breeding values is expected to be more accurate when whole‐genome sequence is used, because the causal mutations are assumed to be in the data. We performed genomic prediction for the number of eggs in white layers using imputed whole‐genome resequence data including ~4.6 million SNPs. The prediction accuracies based on sequence data were compared with the accuracies from the 60 K SNP panel. Predictions were based on genomic best linear unbiased prediction (GBLUP) as well as a Bayesian variable selection model (BayesC). Moreover, the prediction accuracy from using different types of variants (synonymous, non‐synonymous and non‐coding SNPs) was evaluated. Genomic prediction using the 60 K SNP panel resulted in a prediction accuracy of 0.74 when GBLUP was applied. With sequence data, there was a small increase (~1%) in prediction accuracy over the 60 K genotypes. With both 60 K SNP panel and sequence data, GBLUP slightly outperformed BayesC in predicting the breeding values. Selection of SNPs more likely to affect the phenotype (i.e. non‐synonymous SNPs) did not improve the accuracy of genomic prediction. The fact that sequence data were based on imputation from a small number of sequenced animals may have limited the potential to improve the prediction accuracy. A small reference population (n = 1004) and possible exclusion of many causal SNPs during quality control can be other possible reasons for limited benefit of sequence data. We expect, however, that the limited improvement is because the 60 K SNP panel was already sufficiently dense to accurately determine the relationships between animals in our data.     

抗氰烯菌酯假禾谷镰孢突变体的诱导及其生物学特性

为评估引起小麦茎基腐病的病原菌假禾谷镰孢Fusarium pseudograminearum对氰烯菌酯的抗性风险,对5株敏感菌株进行了室内药剂驯化,获得33株抗性突变体,突变频率为16.5%,其对氰烯菌酯的抗性水平范围为7.39～1 665.76倍,3株表现低抗,4株表现中抗,26株表现高抗;发现在myosin-5基因上存在11种抗性突变类型,其中217位的丝氨酸突变为亮氨酸(S217L)、420位的谷氨酸突变为赖氨酸(E420K)和135位的丙氨酸突变为苏氨酸(A135T)为主要突变类型,其比例分别为45.5%、15.2%和9.1%。S217L型抗性突变体的产孢量显著下降,菌丝生长速率和致病力与亲本菌株无显著差异。E420K型抗性突变体的菌丝生长速率和致病力显著下降,产孢量与亲本菌株无显著差异。A135T型抗性突变体的菌丝生长速率和产孢量与亲本菌株无显著差异。研究结果表明假禾谷镰孢在药剂选择压力下易形成氰烯菌酯的抗性群体,对氰烯菌酯存在中到高等的潜在抗性风险,其myosin-5的点突变与其对氰烯菌酯的抗性相关。

Sublethal effects of nine insecticides on Drosophila suzukii and its major pupal parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae

Background

Although the pupal parasitoid Trichopria drosophilae is used in conservative and augmentative biocontrol of Drosophila suzukii infestations, current pest management strategies mostly rely on multiple insecticide applications. In this context, the aim of the study was to investigate the baseline toxicity of nine insecticides on D. suzukii larvae and their multiple sublethal effects (LC₁₀) on immature stages of the pest feeding on contaminated diet and T. drosophilae developing within the intoxicated host.

Results

Chlorpyriphos and azadirachtin showed the lowest and the highest LC₁₀, the values of which were 9.78 × 10¹³ and 1.46 × 10³ times lower than their recommended label field rate, respectively. Among tested insecticides, imidacloprid, malathion and dimethoate were the only treatments that did not affect the juvenile development time of D. suzukii, while spinosad and the organophosphates chlorpyriphos and dimethoate did not influence fly pupal size. No sublethal effects were recorded on T. drosophilae degree of infestation (DI) and juvenile development time. On the contrary, cyazypyr and dimethoate negatively affected the success of parasitism (SP) and the number of progeny of the pupal parasitoid, in association with malathion for the first parameter and spinosad for the fertility. Compared to the untreated control, more female progeny emerged following azadirachtin exposure, while dimethoate caused the opposite effect. Imidacloprid, lambda-cyhalothrin and spinetoram decreased hind tibia length of emerged parasitoids.

Conclusion

This study provides new insights on the (eco)toxicological profile of nine insecticides and new information needed to support the deployment of T. drosophilae in the field within the sustainable management techniques against D. suzukii. © 2023 The Authors.
