Variation in Crown and Root Organic Reserves Among Lucerne Genotypes of Different Morphology and Flower Colour

Previous evidence indicates that differences in the concentration of underground organic reserves can drive the survival and growing ability of lucerne under cold and defoliation stresses. In order to provide the selection process with further information on compounds that may influence plant performance under grazing, we assessed variations in cold‐season concentrations of nitrogen and carbon reserves on genotypes that had been identified for morphological features that possibly enhance grazing tolerance. The selected genotypes encompassed distinct morphological patterns (defined as ‘models’) and different taxa within the Medicago sativa complex, as shown by different flower colours. Crown concentrations of reserves were determined on 90 genotypes, whereas root concentrations were measured on a subsample of 15 genotypes. Wide intergenotypic variation was observed for all reserve substances. Comparisons among models and among flower colour classes highlighted the high concentrations of crown carbohydrates and root and crown‐soluble proteins of the model coded as ‘D1’, characterized by prostrate, rhizomatous habit and long dormancy, which largely corresponded to plants with yellow or variegated flowers, typical of ssp. falcata and × varia, respectively. There was a strong ‘flower colour × storage organ’ interaction for sugar concentration, and the results suggested a preferential compartment of sugars in the roots of purple‐flowered genotypes that belonged to the ssp. sativa. A rank correlation analysis indicated a positive relationship between persistence after two years under grazing of half‐sib progenies deriving from 19 genotypes out of the 90 and crown concentrations of carbohydrates of the 19 mother plants.     

不同因素对水稻离体根吸收四价硒影响

研究结果显示,pH对水稻离体根吸收4价硒(Se)有显著影响,这与不同pH下4价Se的存在形式有关。进一步研究表明,低温抑制4价Se吸收和一定浓度的NaCl促进4价Se吸收,可能在于低温和NaCl影响到根内代谢而间接影响4价Se吸收,而P抑制4价Se吸收可能与二者拥有共同吸附位点有关。

发根农杆菌介导不同基因型大豆转化效率的筛选

基因型是影响发根农杆菌转化大豆的主要因素之一,为筛选转化效率高的大豆基因型,利用不同基因型大豆的下胚轴接种发根农杆菌K599(含GUS基因),待长出毛状根后,根据不同基因型大豆发根诱导率和发根数的差异,选择适宜大豆基因型进行GUS基因的组织化学染色和RT-PCR分析。结果表明,34个大豆基因型发根诱导率和发根数有很大差异,选择发根诱导率大于60%以及发根数大于1.6条的20个大豆基因型毛状根进行GUS基因组织化学染色,其中Y091、Z184、P108、L010等4个大豆基因型的GUS基因转化效率较高,分别为96.2%、91.7%、87.5%、86.4%;进一步对以上4个大豆基因型毛状根进行RT-PCR分析,结果表明,GUS基因均得到了正确转录。表明大豆基因型Y091、Z184、P108、L010是发根农杆菌转化大豆较为理想的受体材料。

Distribution of biomass and carbon in even‐aged stands of Norway spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.): A case study on spacing and thinning effects in northern Denmark

The main objective of this case study was to explore the possible influence of forest management on the levels and distribution of biomass and carbon (C) in even-aged stands of Norway spruce [Picea abies (L.) Karst.] in Denmark. Data originated from a long-term thinning experiment and an adjacent spacing experiment at stand ages of 58 and 41 years, respectively. Biomass of 16 trees from different thinning and spacing treatments was measured or partly estimated, and soils were sampled for determination of C stocks. All trees in each plot were measured for stem diameter and some for total height, to allow for scaling-up results to stand-level estimates. For trees of similar size, foliage biomass tended to be higher in the spacing experiment, which was located on slightly more fertile land. Foliage biomass increased with increasing thinning grade, but the effect could not be separated from that of tree size. At stand level, foliage biomass tended to increase with increasing spacing as well as with increasing thinning grade. For branchwood, stems and roots (including below-ground stump), the biomass increased with increasing tree size and stand volume at tree and stand level, respectively, but no differences between stands, spacings or thinning grades were observed, apart from that expressed by tree size or stand volume. At stand level, C stocks of all biomass compartments decreased with increasing thinning grade, while the distribution between compartments was hardly influenced. The ratio between above-ground and stem biomass was about 1.21 at stand level, while the ratio between below- and above-ground biomass was about 0.17. Thinning influenced the C stock of the forest floor and mineral soil oppositely, resulting in no effect of thinning on total soil C.
