不同植物LDOX/ANS基因的生物信息学分析

花青素是一类重要的植物次生代谢产物。本文采用生物信息学的方法对已在GenBank上登录的拟南芥、西洋梨、苹果、桃、葡萄、芥菜、菊花新品种和水稻等植物的无色花青素双加氧酶/花青素合成酶(LDOX/ANS)基因的核酸及氨基酸序列、组成成分、导肽、信号肽、跨膜结构域、疏水性/亲水性、蛋白质二级结构、三级结构及功能域等进行预测和推断。结果表明,ORF除了桃和菊花新品种为500bp左右之外,其它几种植物都在1070bp左右,分子量均为4kD左右,理论等电点均低于7,说明LDOX/ANS呈酸性。Glu、Leu和Val是这些植物共有的主要氨基酸。核苷酸同源性比对结果显示,拟南芥LDOX/ANS与其它植物LDOX/ANS的同源性较高;8个物种的LDOX/ANS基因被分为两个大类,单子叶植物水稻LDOX/ANS基因被单独分为一类,其它的均聚成一大类。研究还发现这些植物的LDOX/ANSN端不存在导肽和信号肽,无跨膜结构域,肽链表现为亲水性。蛋白质二级结构中最主要的结构元件是α-螺旋和无规则卷曲,包含一个20G-FeⅡOxy功能结构域。通过此次研究,希望为今后深入研究该类酶的功能和结构特征提供依据。

[目的]优化反向PCR(IPCR)条件分离油菜转基因外源T-DNA的侧翼序列。[方法]以单拷贝的转基因油菜FS4为研究材料,用SDS法和改良CTAB法(包括低温操作、增加酚氯仿的抽提次数以及延长低温沉淀时间等)提取转基因油菜总DNA,并进行酶切、纯化、自连接,再使用普通聚合酶与热启动高保真的ExTaqHS聚合酶进行两轮巢式PCR扩增,进行序列对比。油菜数据库比对搜索采用BBSRCBrassicaDB上WU-BLAST2.0工具,拟南芥数据库比对分析采用TAIR数据库中WU-BLAST2.0工具。为验证FS4转基因中T-DNA插入位点的真实性,根据序列比对分析结果在T-DNA插入位点的左右两端分别设计引物FS4-L与FS4-R。分别采用3对引物pS2/FS4-L、pA2/FS4-R、FS4-L/FS4-R同时对T1代转基因FS4杂合体和非转基因对照植株的基因组进行PCR验证。[结果]两轮巢式PCR扩增得到1个大小为4.0kb的片段,其序列与油菜数据库中BH652424和BZ044084两序列同源性分别高达97.8%和63.4%。根据序列比对结果设计特异引物对进行PCR验证的结果,也证明了FS4转基因油菜中T-DNA的确插入在该位点。[结论]优化后的IPCR条件能成功分离油菜转基因外源T-DNA的侧翼序列。     

杨属ITS序列的分子进化特点分析

本文通过对杨属5组代表种并以柳属中旱柳的ITS序列作为参照,用成对比较的方法对杨属21个植物样品的ITS序列比较发现,杨属ITS序列的碱基替换情况是转换数大于颠换数,ITS-1序列中碱基发生转换和颠换的数目基本相似,而ITS-2序列中碱基发生转换的数目远远大于颠换。用朱克斯和坎托一参数模型和木村二参数模型对杨属ITS序列的替换率计算,无论是ITS-1还是ITS-2序列都没有达到数理统计上的明显差异。但由于ITS-2序列碱基的变化转换大大高于颠换,所以二参数模型计算所得结果大于一参数模型;采用相对速率测验法,对杨属各组分子进化相对速率进行了检测,结果分析得知,杨属5组的ITS序列分子进化速率有差异。杨属各组的ITS-1序列比较说明,大叶杨组、青杨组、黑杨组的进化速率都小于白杨组,而胡杨组则是进化速率最快的,大叶杨组的进化速率小于青杨组、胡杨组和黑杨组,黑杨组和胡杨组大于青杨组;ITS-2序列比较发现白杨组是进化速率最慢,其次是大叶杨组、青杨组,而黑杨组则稍大于胡杨组;总ITS序列比较是大叶杨组和黑杨组相对较慢,胡杨组最快;但就总的碱基替换分析,除了黑杨组和大叶杨组在ITS-1区间及青杨组、胡杨组和白杨组在ITS-2区间进化速率有显著差异外,其余组间都无显著的差异,尤其是在整个ITS序列区段碱基替换的差异都无显著差异。

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.     

DNA fingerprinting in soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill) with oligonucleotide probes for simple repetitive sequences

Summary Soybean DNA fingerprints were analyzed by digoxigenin-labeled oligonucleotide probes complementary to simple repetitive sequences. The clearest and most polymorphic patterns were obtained with (AAT)₆ as a probe, with which all 47 soybean cultivars tested could be distinguished. However, DNA fingerprints of individuals within cultivars showed the same pattern. Using (CT)₈, (GAA)₅ or (AAGG)₄ as probes, clear polymorphic patterns among cultivars and accessions in the subgenus Soja (Glycine max and Glycine soja) were not observed, while quite different patterns were found in accessions in the subgenus Glycine. The results suggest that G. max and G. soja are closer in their genome structure. DNA fingerprints of reciprocal crosses between cultivars and accessions in the subgenus Soja were similar, and contained bands of both parents. In an F₂ population from these crosses, such bands segregated in a Mendelian fashion.     

中国黄土高原黄土-古土壤序列的红度对古气候的指示意义

Comparisons of red ratings (RR) with Fe_d, Fe_d/Fe_t, clay content, and magnetic susceptibility (x) of two loess-paleosol sequences at Luochuan and Lingtai on China's Loess Plateau were conducted to study the possible relationship between RR and pedogenic degrees of the two loess-paleosol sequences, and to discuss whether the RR could become new paleo-climatic indicators. Results showed that the RR of the two loess-paleosol sequences had positive, highly significant (P < 0.01) correlations with: 1) citrate-bicarbonate-dithionite (CBD) extracted iron (Fe_d), 2) ratios of CBD extracted iron to total iron (Fe_d/Fe_t), 3) clay (< 2 μm), and 4) magnetic susceptibility (x). This suggested that the RR of these loess-paleosol sequences could indicate degrees of loess weathering and pedogenesis and were potential paleo-climatic proxies. The strong correlations of RR to Fe_d and x also implied that during pedogenic processes, pedogenic hematite in loess and paleosols were closely related to the amount of total secondary iron oxides and pedogenic ferrimagnetic minerals (predominantly maghemite).     

一种非刚性运动目标图像跟踪的改进算法

针对玉米秸秆粉碎后抛撒运动的特点，提出一种改进的变形模板跟踪算法实现非刚性目标的运动跟踪，在两个方面对原有的算法进行了改进：1)选择适当的预测方法，减少遮挡物体对研究目标的影响。2)通过选择适当的特征区域把运动目标限制在局部区域，而不是对整帧图像进行处理。试验证明了该算法在目标跟踪的实现效率、精确性方面有一定的优势。     

Diversity of the ectomycorrhiza community at a uranium mining heap

Ectomycorrhiza (EM) community structure was analyzed at one bare heap site (BHS), one heap site with organic cover (HS-OH) and one reference site (RS) in the former uranium mining area near Ronneburg (Thuringia, Germany). Twenty-three EM morphotypes were distinguished, and 14 of them were additionally characterized by polymerase chain reaction (PCR), restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) and internal transcribed spacer (ITS) sequence analysis. Colonization of birch by the different morphotypes was quantified, and the EM diversity at the different sites was investigated. Compared to RS, total EM colonization was reduced by 6% (P=0.851) at HS-OH and by 58% (P<0.001) at BHS. Likewise, EM diversity was reduced by 16% (P=0.229) at HS-OH and 52% (P<0.001) at BHS. The Sørensen similarity between EM samples from RS was nearly independent from the sampling date, whereas at HS-OH and especially BHS, the Sørensen similarity decreased with increasing time between the samplings. All EM fungal species dominating at the two heap sites were also present at RS. Thus, fungi with high tolerance against uranium and other stress factors at the heap sites (e.g. heavy metals, nutrient limitation, drought) were selected among all EM fungi of the area. Highly adapted fungi with a distribution restricted to the contaminated soils were not detected.Electronic Supplementary Material Supplementary material is available for this article at .
