Structure and Expression In planta of Botrytis cinerea Ubiquitin Genes

To identify genes of the necrotrophic pathogenic fungus Botrytis cinerea that are expressed during infection of tomato leaves, a differential screening of a genomic library with radioactively labelled cDNA was performed. This resulted in the identification of a B. cinerea gene, denominated Bcubi4, which encodes a precursor protein consisting of four identical head-to-tail repeats of a 76aa ubiquitin unit. Subsequently a gene denominated Bcubi1CEP79, encoding a single ubiquitin unit joined to a Carboxyl Extension Protein of 79 amino acids, was isolated. The expression of the two ubiquitin genes was studied during pathogenesis of B. cinerea on tomato. Bcubi1CEP79, but not Bcubi4, mRNA was transiently induced at 16h after inoculation. The increased expression of the Bcubi1CEP79 gene at this stage of pathogenesis might be required for enhanced ribosomal biogenesis.     

珠母贝属6个种的ITS 2分子标记研究

对珠母贝属的大珠母贝、珠母贝、白珠母贝、黑珠母贝、长耳珠母贝、黑珠母贝和合浦珠母贝6个种的内部转录间隔区2(ITS2)序列及其两侧的5.8S和28S的部分序列进行了比较分析。其中黑珠母贝的序列来自GenBank。PCR扩增片段大小为600bp左右,测序结果表明,ITS2长211～254bp,两端的5.8S和28S分别长84bp和272bp(均含引物)。序列比对分析结果表明,5.8S和28S序列高度保守,不适合于种类鉴定,而ITS2序列高度变异,270个比对位点中有146个位点发生突变,其中72个位点发生插入/缺失突变。除白珠母贝和黑珠母贝之间的遗传距离较小外,其余种类之间的遗传距离远远大于种内遗传距离。基因型分析表明,每个种具有各自特有的基因型。基因型和序列变异分析表明ITS2序列可作为珍珠贝种类鉴定的分子标记。可用于种间、杂交育种、幼体和珍珠贝肉等材料的种类鉴定与遗传分析。

Overcoming hybridization barriers between pea and some of its wild relatives

Pea would benefit from the plasticity and adaptability of its cross-incompatible relatives Pisum fulvum and Lathyrus sativus L., and we have tested reciprocal sexual crossings by manually cross-pollinating plants of genotypes of these three species. Studies of in situ germination of pollen grains on stigmata showed that pollen tubes were generally unable to germinate or could not reach the ovary. A few putative hybrid pods were nevertheless harvested, with one grain per pod germinated in vitro, then micropropagated for flow cytometry, isoenzyme, molecular (ribosomal ITS PCR-RFLP) and genomic in situ hybridization (GISH) studies. One such grain was recovered from an inter-generic cross of P. sativum x L. sativus and four from an inter-specific P. sativum x P. fulvumcross. A strong cross-incompatibility was shown between pea and grass pea, where the putative hybrid turned out to be pea. Conversely, with the interspecific, P. sativum x P. fulvum cross, flow cytometry and isoenzymes with leaf tissues strongly suggested hybridity, while molecular approaches and GISH confirmed the production of inter-specific hybrids, and without the need for a wild type P. sativum accession as a bridging cross.     

三七根际链霉菌Streptomyces sp. YNUCC0233木聚糖酶性质研究

从三七根际分离到一株产木聚糖酶链霉菌Streptomycessp.YNUCC0233。该菌所产生的木聚糖酶的最适反应温度为67℃,最适pH为6.0,在pH5.0~9.0和60℃以下时相对稳定。Ba2+和K+对该木聚糖酶有较强的促进作用,Hg2+、Cu2+、Mn2+、Co2+、Ni2+和EDTA对该酶有较强的抑制作用。对Streptomycessp.YNUCC023316SrDNA的1105bp片段的序列分析结果表明,Streptomycessp.YNUCC0233的16SrDNA片段与GenBank中所有已注册的链霉菌分类单位均不同。     

Phylogenetic relationships in the North African genus <Emphasis Type="Italic">Hedysarum</Emphasis> as inferred from ITS sequences of nuclear ribosomal DNA

Sequences of the internal transcribed spacers (ITS) of nuclear ribosomal DNA were analysed to precise their length (637–643 bp) and resolve phylogenetic relationships among eight Mediterranean species of the genus Hedysarum (Fabaceae). The infra-specific variability levels of the ITS sequences of spontaneous population of H. coronarium proved a lack of polymorphism both in the length and in the sequences examined in this species. Hence, a consensus ITS sequence characterising each Hedysarum species has been investigated for analysis of inter-specific polymorphisms. The level of variation of ITS sequence was high enough to make the ITS1 and ITS2 a useful tool for phylogenetic reconstruction. However, ITS2 seems to be relatively more polymorphic and more informative than ITS1 regarding length or GC percent. The phylogenic relationships in the genus Hedysarum based on ITS1 and ITS2 sequences taken independently or together, are discussed in the context of current work in molecular biosystematics. Results exhibited the distinctiveness of the two H. spinosissimum subspecies (i.e. H. spinosissimum ssp. capitatum and H. spinosissimum ssp. spinosissimum). In addition, the great similarity of the ITS sequences between H. coronarium (the only cultivated species of the genus) and H. carnosum suggests the usefulness of the latter in selection programmes to improve pastoral production in semi-arid areas.     

猪源隐孢子虫卵囊的分离及基因型鉴定

应用RT-PCR方法对南京、上海和合肥猪源隐孢子虫卵囊SSU rRNA部分序列进行扩增,产物测序后提交GenBank,收录号为DQ855266、DQ855267;用BLAST和DNAStar软件与GenBank参考序列进行比较,分析其同源性,绘制系统发育进化树,结合卵囊形态学观察和对小鼠、大鼠、兔、山羊和鸡的传染性试验确定隐孢子虫种类或基因型。结果表明,3地区猪源隐孢子虫分离株与微小隐孢子虫(C.parvum)同源性达94%~100%,与C.parvummouse型有99.8%~100%的同源性,并处于进化树的同一分支。因此,3地区猪源隐孢子虫是C.parvummouse型,提示猪和鼠之间存在交叉传播的可能。

固氮、解磷复合菌剂对小麦根际土壤细菌群落的影响

为研究固氮芽孢杆菌、固氮巨大芽孢杆菌、解磷假单胞菌、巴西固氮螺菌组成的复合菌剂对小麦根际土壤细菌群落多样性的影响,通过构建16SrRNA克隆文库及采用核糖体DNA扩增片段酶切分析(ARDRA)的方法,以文库库容值(C)、Rarefaction曲线(R)对克隆文库进行评价。系统发育分析表明,对照及菌剂处理样品均检测到酸杆菌门、变形菌门、浮霉菌门、厚壁菌门、拟杆菌门、疣微菌门、放线菌门和芽单胞菌门8个细菌类群,并且优势菌群均为变形菌门和酸杆菌门。接种菌剂后小麦根际土壤检出了绿弯菌门、蓝藻门、产水菌门和硝化螺旋菌门,而梭杆菌门未被检出。假单胞菌属由1.59%增加至21.28%。芽孢杆菌属由未检出增至3.05%。两样品中均未检出固氮螺菌属。多样性分析表明,接种菌剂后,小麦根际土壤细菌多样性指数和丰富度指数均提高。因此,接种菌剂对小麦根际土壤细菌类群的组成及所占比例有较大影响。
