Genome wide association studies (GWAS) of element contents in grain with a special focus on zinc and iron in a world collection of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.)

Genome wide association studies (GWAS) were carried out to map Quantitative Trait Loci (QTL) associated with element contents in the grain using 336 spring barley. Of the elements analyzed, Fe content ranged from 21.9 to 91.0 mg kg⁻¹, Zn from 10.4 to 54.5 mg kg⁻¹, Ba from 0.2 to 8.9, Ca from 186.4 to 977.5, Cu from 1.5 to 9.8, K from 353.2 to 7721.5, Mg from 1049.8 to 2024.2, Mn from 8.1 to 22.9, Na from 55.9 to 627.9, P from 2272.9 to 5428.8, S from 880.7 to 1898.0, Si from 19.1 to 663.2, and Sr from 0.35 to 2.62 mg kg⁻¹. GWAS were carried out using 6519 SNP markers and multiple elements in MLM:PCA + K model in TASSEL software. Population analyses showed two sub-populations, primarily based on row types. GWAS for row types showed association with INTERMEDIUM-C, a modifier gene for lateral spikelet fertility in the 4H chromosome, validating current GWAS approach. GWAS also showed that 2 QTL for Ba, 2 for Ca, 4 for Cu, 11 for Fe, 2 for K, 3 for Mg, 6 for Mn, 4 for Na, 3 for S, 5 for Si, and 3 for Zn were mapped in barley chromosomes. The QTL identified in the current study are valuable for breeding nutrient dense barley cultivars in the future, especially Zn and Fe.     

Protective efficacy of an H5/H7 trivalent inactivated vaccine produced from Re-11, Re-12, and H7-Re2 strains against challenge with different H5 and H7 viruses in chickens

We developed an H5/H7 trivalent inactivated vaccine by using Re-11, Re-12, and H7-Re2 vaccine seed viruses, which were generated by reverse genetics and derived their HA genes from A/duck/Guizhou/S4184/2017(H5 N6)(DK/GZ/S4184/17)(a clade 2.3.4.4 d virus), A/chicken/Liaoning/SD007/2017(H5 N1)(CK/LN/SD007/17)(a clade 2.3.2.1 d virus), and A/chicken/Guangxi/SD098/2017(H7 N9)(CK/GX/SD098/17), respectively. The protective efficacy of this novel vaccine and that of the recently used H5/H7 bivalent inactivated vaccine against different H5 and H7 N9 viruses was evaluated in chickens. We found that the H5/H7 bivalent vaccine provided solid protection against the H7 N9 virus CK/GX/SD098/17, but only 50–60% protection against different H5 viruses. In contrast, the novel H5/H7 trivalent vaccine provided complete protection against the H5 and H7 viruses tested. Our study underscores the importance of timely updating of vaccines for avian influenza control.     

CRISPR/cas系统及其在家禽上的应用研究进展

CRISPR/cas是一种获得性免疫防御系统,广泛存在于细菌和古细菌中。Strep tococcus pyogenes cas9(Spcas9)作为目前研究最多、最清楚的效应蛋白,因其酶活性高和靶点广而被应用于生命科学各个领域,但Spcas9分子量大、脱靶率高等缺点在一定程度上限制了其应用。随着CRISPR系统技术被深入开发,一些新效应蛋白被发现,本文就CRISPR/cas系统分类、原理、新效应蛋白发现及cas9(S.Pyogenes)多种变构体技术开发在及家禽上的应用进行综述,为相关领域的研究提供参考。     

聚丁二炔链中的光吸收和光感应键结构改变

1985年Koda等人发现聚丁二炔在光的照射下,会发生从兰色到红色的变化;掺杂不同时,其光吸收出现了一系列新的特征,并在有机光导,非线性光学层,电子束复印材料等方面得到了应用.本文首次提出一个包括电子—电子,电子—声子相互作用的模型,成功地解释了有关实验现象.

苜蓿褐斑病抗性与几种同工酶的关系

以苜蓿5个品种在褐斑病抗性上存在差异的抗、感单株为材料，研究了接种病菌后苜蓿褐斑病抗性与多酚氧化酶(PPO)、过氧化物酶(POD)和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)及其酶活性的关系。研究结果表明，褐斑病侵染后，苜蓿抗病株系和感病株系叶片中PPO、POD和SOD同工酶谱带多少和强弱存在明显的差异，即大部分抗病株系PPO、POD和SOD酶活性高于感病株系，并有新的同工酶带出现。PPO、POD和SOD在苜蓿抗褐斑病上可能起到重要作用，其同工酶谱带和酶活性的差异有可能做为鉴定苜蓿抗褐斑病的一种同工酶标记。

强力增产素对小麦花后干物质生产和产量的调节效应

试验于１９９０～１９９２年在江苏农学院实验农场进行，供试品种（系）为扬麦５号、冀８４５４１８和８８７４．通过在小麦开花期喷施强力增产素，研究其对小麦花后干物质生产和产量的影响。结果表明：喷施强力增产素能延缓花后叶片的衰老，提高叶片叶绿素含量，增强光合功能，扩大花后干物质积累量，具有一定的增粒、增重作用。开花期喷施，可增产６．８２％～８．５６％，花后２０ｄ喷施效应下降，仅增产３．７３％。
