应用反转录聚合酶链式反应(RT-PCR)获得水稻条纹病毒(Rice stripe virus,RSV)的4个基因NS2、NS3、CP和SP,并将它们克隆至pMD-18-T载体上.得到的重组质粒pMD-18-T-NS2、pMD-18-T-NS3、pMD-18-T-CP和pMD-18-T-SP经XbaⅠ/HindⅢ双酶切,分别与经相同方法酶切的苜蓿银纹夜蛾核型多角体病毒(Autographa california nuclear polyhedrosis virus,AcM-NPV)转移载体pFastBacHTb相连接,构建重组转移质粒pFastBacHTb-X(pFastBacHTb-NS2、pFastBacHTb-NS3、pFastBacHTb-CP和pFastBacHTb-SP).序列测定表明,目的基因准确地插入到表达载体中.重组质粒pFastBacHTb-X通过转化包含有穿梭载体的大肠杆菌(Escherichia coli)感受态细胞DH10Bac,得到重组穿梭质粒rb-X(rb-NS2、rb-NS3、rb-CP和rb-SP).rb-X侵染草地贪夜蛾(Spodoptera frugiperda)离体细胞(sf9)24-72 h后,在荧光倒置显微镜可见光200倍视野下观察到细胞增大、培养液和细胞内出现颗粒状物质、部分细胞破裂甚至裂解等一系列与正常sf9细胞形态有明显区别的现象.rb-X侵染细胞72h后,从细胞提取蛋白,电泳分析得到4个条带,大小分别为28.2、29.2、40.2和25.2 ku,与预测的4种融合蛋白大小一致.Western blotting分析分别得到4条单一条带,证明了RSV NS2、NS3、CP和SP基因在"AcMNPV-sf9昆虫细胞"真核表达体系中成功表达.     

Comparative genome mapping of Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench using an RFLP map constructed in a population of recombinant inbred lines

A restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) linkage map of Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench was constructed in a population of 137 F_6-8 recombinant inbred lines using sorghum, maize, oat, barley and rice DNA clones. The map consists of 10 linkage groups (LGs) and 323 markers, 247 of which (76.5%) were ordered at a LOD score ≥ 3.0. The LGs comprise from 61 (LG A) to 13 markers (J), which range in length from 205 (A) to 55 cM (J) and have a combined total length of 1347 cM. Highly significant distorted segregation was detected at all of the 38 loci in a 103-cM segment of LG A, the allelic ratios in the segment ranging from approximately 3:1 (one end) to 19:1 (middle) to 2:1 (other end). Duplicated loci located in different LGs have been mapped with 55 of the 295 DNA probes used in the study (18.6%). The distribution of these loci does not provide support for the hypothesis that Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench is of tetraploid origin. Comparison of the map with RFLP maps of maize, rice, and oat produced evidence for sorghum-maize LG rearrangements and homoeologies not reported previously, including evidence that: (1) a segment of maize 5L and a segment of 5S may be homoeologous to sorghum LGA; (2) maize LGs 4 and 6 are partly homoeologous to sorghum LGE; (3) the short arm of maize LG 2 is partly homoeologous to sorghum LGF; (4) maize LG 4 may be partly homoeologous to sorghum LG G; (5) maize LG 5 and sorghum LG G contain a larger amount of homoeologous genetic material than previously indicated; and (6) a short segment of maize LG 1 may be homoeologous to a short segment of sorghum LG I.     

Fusarium vascular wilt in lentil: Inheritance and identification of DNA markers for resistance

The inheritance of resistance to lentil (Lens culinaris Medik.) vascular wilt caused by Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lentis was investigated in a cross between resistant (ILL5588) and susceptible (L692–16-l(s)) lines. F_2:4 progenies and F_6:8, F_6:9 recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations were assessed for their wilt reaction for three seasons in a well-established wilt-sick plot. Resistance to wilt was conditioned by a single dominant gene in the populations studied. The map location of the Fw locus was identified for the first time through linkage to a random amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD) marker (OPK-15₉₀₀) at 10.8 cM. Two other RAPD markers (OP-BH₈₀₀ and OP-DI5₅₀₀) identified by bulked segregant analysis were associated in the coupling phase with the resistance trait, and another marker (OP-C04₆₅₀) was associated with repulsion. The DNA markers reported here will provide a starting point in marker-assisted selection for vascular wilt resistance in lentil.

根据Ⅰ型马立克病病毒（MDV）强毒GA株基因序列,设计两对引物,用PCR方法扩增出CV1988／Rispens株的US10及其侧翼序列,分别克隆入pUC18载体中。经测序检测正确后,进一步插入含CMV启动子的绿色荧光蛋白（EGFP）基因表达盒,获得了含EGFP报告基因的转移载体质粒pPUC18-US10-EGFP。通过同源重组,成功地筛选出表达EGFP的重组病毒rCV1988-EGFP,经传代证明重组rCV1988-EGFP在感染的CEF细胞中能稳定表达EGFP。结果表明：构建的重组转移载体质粒正确,US10是MDV复制非必需片段,为进一步利用US10区构建重组MDV多价基因工程疫苗奠定了基础。

DNA hybridization assay for detection of nucleopolyhedrovirus in whitemarked tussock moth (Orgyia leucostigma) larvae

DNA dot‐blot hybridization assays utilizing a horseradish peroxidase‐labelled whole genomic DNA probe and enhanced chemiluminescence were conducted to quantify detection thresholds of nucleopolyhedrovirus (NPV) in whitemarked tussock moth (Orgyia leucostigma) larvae. The minimum detection thresholds for an aqueous suspension of occlusion bodies (OBs), OBs added to macerates of non‐infected larvae and OBs in macerates of diseased larvae were 7.8 × 10³, 7.8 × 10³, and 1.5 × 10³ OBs, respectively. Purified viral DNA was detected at a concentration of 1.6 × 10⁻¹ ng in a 20 µl volume. The presence of pre‐occluded viral nucleocapsids and DNA, inherent to infected larvae, improved the detection threshold five‐fold compared with OBs alone. Larval tissues did not block the detection system utilized, nor did they bind non‐specifically to the probe. Detection thresholds, upon sequential hybridization of the same membrane, on average deteriorated two‐fold between the first and second hybridization and an additional six‐fold between the second and third hybridization. NPV infection was detected two days post‐inoculation (pi) in about one‐third of the larvae examined and in almost all larvae three days pi. Microscopic analysis of stained larval smears missed NPV infection in almost all larvae two days pi and about two‐thirds of the larvae three days pi. Results from the two methods of analysis were not comparable until four days pi. The detection system utilized is a reliable, efficient and simple method for the early detection of NPV infection in large numbers of larvae and may be used for further studies quantifying the role of this baculovirus in the ecology of whitemarked tussock moth populations. © 2001 Society of Chemical Industry     

Engineered baculoviruses for pest control

The present situation with regard to the use of baculoviruses in insect control is outlined. By virtue of their high degree of host specificity, they offer considerable advantages over chemical insecticides, but their practical use is limited by a number of factors, particularly their slow speed of action. Various approaches to the genetic modification of baculoviruses to overcome these problems are described. These have resulted in improvements in insecticidal activity in laboratory trials which are now being confirmed in the field. Thus, genetically modified baculoviruses have a promising future in pest-control programmes. Our increasing knowledge of the genetic factors which regulate their behaviour is showing how other aspects of their performance may be controlled and exploited. ©1997 SCI
