Cd胁迫下绿豆和箭舌豌豆叶片抗氧化系统的变化

研究了Cd胁迫下绿豆（Phaseolus aureus）和箭舌豌豆（Vicia sativa）幼苗的生长,叶片内过氧化氢酶（CAT）、抗坏血酸过氧化物酶（APX）、超氧化岐化酶（SOD）、愈创木酚过氧化物酶（GPOD）和谷胱甘肽还原酶（GR）的同工酶活性,还原性谷胱甘肽（GSH）和抗坏血酸（ASC）以及Cd含量的变化。结果显示,100μmol.L-1Cd胁迫9d期间,随着Cd胁迫时间的延长,绿豆和箭舌豌豆幼苗主根的伸长量和其根系干重显著降低（P〈0.05）,根表面出现越来越明显的褐色,绿豆叶表面出现可见的褐色斑点;两种植物叶片的CAT、APX和SOD同工酶活性以及绿豆叶片的GR活性呈先升后降的趋势,而两种植物叶的GPOD活性明显增加;在箭舌豌豆叶片中,GR活性随Cd暴露时间的延长而增加,而GSH先降后升;在绿豆叶片中,GSH和ASC随Cd暴露时间的延长而降低;与此同时,两种植物叶片中Cd的含量也随Cd胁迫时间的延长而增加,和箭舌豌豆相比,绿豆叶片中Cd含量增加更多。结果表明,箭舌豌豆有较强的抗氧化能力。     

坡度对紫花苜蓿和狗牙根光合生理特性的影响

通过模拟试验,测定不同坡度条件下紫花苜蓿和狗牙根光合和蒸腾速率变化,从而分析坡度对护坡植物光合生理特性的影响。结果表明:紫花苜蓿和狗牙根的净光合速率与蒸腾速率随着坡度的增大表现为"单峰"型,且都在坡度为15°左右达到最大值。随着坡度的增大,两种植物的光合生理都受到胁迫影响,但紫花苜蓿变化极显著,而狗牙根则表现为在坡度60°以下的变化很小。紫花苜蓿的固氮能力较强,能在30°以下坡面较好地生长;而狗牙根的强抗逆性,可以在高陡边坡绿化中担当重要角色。研究不仅为边坡修复的物种选择提供了科学参考,也为边坡生态修复提供了理论依据。     

Nitrogen Uptake and Use Efficiency in Upland Rice under Two Nitrogen Sources

Upland rice is an important crop in South America, including Brazil. Nitrogen (N) is one of the most yield-limiting nutrients in upland rice production in Brazil. A greenhouse experiment was conducted to evaluate N uptake and use efficiency as influenced by N sources. The soil used in the experiment was an Oxisol. The N sources were ammonium sulfate and urea, and N rates were 0, 50, 100, 150, 300, and 400 mg kg^?1 of soil. Nitrogen concentrations in the root, shoot, and grain were significantly influenced by N sources. The N rate and N source significantly influenced the N uptake in root, shoot, and grain. Similarly, nitrogen rate by N source interaction was also significant for N uptake in the root, shoot, and grain, indicating N source has a significant influence on uptake of N. Overall, concentration (content per unit dry weight) of N was greater in the grain, followed by root and shoot. Agronomical efficiency, apparent recovery efficiency, and utilization efficiency of N were significantly influenced by N rate and varied with N sources. However, physiological and agrophysiological efficiencies were only influenced significantly by N sources. Overall, N recovery efficiency was 33% for ammonium sulfate and 37% for urea. Hence, the large amount of N lost from soil–plant system may be by denitrification or voltilization.     

Asymmetric warming effects on N dynamics and productivity in rice (Oryza sativa L.)

Climate warming exhibits strong diurnal variations, with higher warming rates being observed at nighttime, which significantly affects rice (Oryza sativa L.) growth and grain yield. The objective of this study was to determine the effects of asymmetric warming (all-day warming, AW; daytime warming from 07:00 to 19:00, DW; nighttime warming from 19:00 to 07:00, NW, and a control, CK) on rice nitrogen (N) dynamics and productivity. Two rice bucket warming experiments were performed in Nanjing in Jiangsu Province, China, using the free air temperature increase (FATI) technique. The daily mean temperatures in the rice canopy in the AW, DW and NW plots were 2.0, 1.1 and 1.3ºC higher than those in the rice canopy in the CK plots, respectively. The results indicated that the total N accumulation of rice was 8.27–40.53% higher in the warming treatment than in the control during the jointing, anthesis and maturity stages. However, there was no significant difference detected among the three warming treatments. The warming treatment substantially decreased N translocation efficiency, leading to the retention of more N in the plant stems during grain filling. The warming treatment also decreased the N harvest index, N utilization efficiency based on grain yield and N utilization efficiencies based on biomass in both growing seasons. The warming treatment significantly increased the aboveground biomass (9.26–16.18%) in the jointing stage but decreased it (2.75–9.63%) in the maturity stage. Although DW increased the carbon (C) gain by photosynthesis and NW increased the C loss by night respiration, the daytime higher-temperature treatment affected rice photosynthesis and reduced its photosynthetic rate and product. This effect may be one of the primary reasons for the insignificant difference in the aboveground biomass between the DW and NW treatments. In the AW, DW and NW plots, the grain yield was reduced by an average of 10.07, 5.05 and 7.89%, respectively, across both years. The effective panicles and grains per spike tended to decrease in the warmed plots, whereas irregular changes in the 1000-grain weight were observed. Our results suggest that under the anticipated climate warming, rice productivity would further decline in the Yangtze River Basin.     

叶用莴苣热激蛋白LsHsp70-3701基因的克隆及高温胁迫下的表达分析

为探讨热激蛋白Hsp70基因在高温胁迫下的响应机制及其分子机理,分析Hsp70基因与叶用莴苣耐热性的关系,本研究通过同源克隆及RACE技术,克隆了叶用莴苣热激蛋白Ls Hsp70-3701基因的c DNA全长序列,利用实时荧光定量PCR(qRT-PCR)分析该基因在叶用莴苣热敏品种P-S11和耐热品种G-S59中高温胁迫下的表达差异。该基因c DNA全长为2 191 bp,开放阅读框为1 950 bp,编码649个氨基酸,具有Hsp70家族特有的标签序列,与拟南芥、番茄、小麦等物种的Hsp70同源性达到90%以上。qRT-PCR分析显示,高温胁迫下该基因在2个品种中的表达均上调,在耐热品种中总体表达水平显著高于热敏品种,且在42℃高温下热敏品种P-S11中基因表达随着胁迫时间的增加受到抑制,而耐热品种G-S59中则能长时间保持较高的表达水平。结果表明,Ls Hsp70-3701基因可能与叶用莴苣耐热性相关。本研究为有效解决叶用莴苣高温抽薹问题提供了数据支持。     

Irrigation and Zn fertilizer management improves Zn phyto‐availability in various rice production systems

Zinc (Zn) is an important micronutrient for rice (Oryza sativa L.) production and its deficiency has been observed in various production systems. High grain Zn concentration is equally important for high rice yield and human health. In this work, the effects of Zn fertilization on seedling growth, grain yield, grain Zn concentration, and their association with root traits were studied under alternate wetting and drying (AWD), aerobic rice (AR), system of rice intensification (SRI), and continuous flooding (CF). Zinc fertilization (15 kg ha^?1) improved nursery seedlings chlorophyll and Zn concentrations, root length, and number of roots with highest values observed in CF. At harvesting, maximum plant height, panicle length, total and panicle bearing tillers, and kernel yield were found with Zn addition in AWD and CF rice systems. Mid season drainage provided at maximum tillering and Zn fertilization increased its concentration in leaves, culms, panicles, and grains under CF and AR at physiological maturity. Most of Zn applied was allocated into culms and panicles, nevertheless, a significant increase in grain Zn concentration was also observed in all production systems. Association of leaf Zn with grain Zn concentration was stronger than with culm and panicle Zn. The results indicate that Zn application after rice nursery transplanting is more important for grain Zn enrichment in all rice systems than for increase in grain yield in all systems except AWD where grain yield was also increased. More grain yield in CF and AWD as compared to SRI and AR can also be attributed to decreased spikelet sterility and to better Zn phyto‐availability in these rice systems at physiological maturity.     

水稻叶片形态建成分子调控机制研究进展

叶片形态是水稻“理想株型”的重要组成部分,是当前水稻高产育种关注的重点。本文通过对已克隆多个叶形相关调控基因综述了水稻叶片形态(叶片卷曲度、倾角、披散程度以及叶片宽度)建成的分子遗传学研究进展。综合分析认为,水稻叶片的卷曲主要是通过卷叶基因调控叶片近轴/远轴间的发育、泡状细胞的发育及其膨胀和渗透压、厚壁组织的形成以及叶片角质层的发育等来实现。影响植株空间伸展姿态的叶倾角主要通过叶角基因调控油菜素内酯的信号传导来影响叶枕细胞的生长发育;唯一被克隆的影响叶片披垂度的披叶基因DL1是通过控制叶片中脉发育而改变叶片形态的;而窄叶基因则主要通过调控生长素的合成与极性运输、维管组织的发育和分布,影响叶片维管束数目及宽度。但到目前为止,所有已克隆的叶形调控基因间相互调控关系的研究还不够深入,还不能完整清晰地勾勒水稻叶形建成和发育的分子调控网络。因此,在已有的研究基础上更深入地探索水稻叶片形态建成的分子调控机制,对进一步构建相关的调控网络,塑造水稻理想株型具有重要意义。
