中国大菱鲆虹彩病毒(TRBIV)PCR检测方法的建立及其应用

大菱鲆红体病虹彩病毒(turbot reddish body iridovirus,TRBIV)是中国工厂化养殖大菱鲆的主要病毒性病原之一.本研究提取了该病毒DNA,依据其主要衣壳蛋白基因序列设计了PCR引物,优化了PCR反应参数,建立了TRBIV的PCR检测方法,测试了该方法的特异性和灵敏度,并应用该方法开展了TRBIV的流行情况调查及研究了大菱鲆的外观症状(红体)与TRBIV感染的关系.结果显示,本研究建立的TRBIV PCR检测方法可以从相当于100ng病鱼组织中或103数量级的病毒粒子中检出TRBIV,也可以在不杀死被测鱼的情况下,仅从鱼体中抽取少量血液即可在1天的时间内完成大量样品的TRBIV检测,但不能从健康大菱鲆脾组织和患淋巴囊肿牙鲆的囊肿组织中扩增出任何产物,说明该方法具有很高的灵敏性和特异性;在所调查的山东半岛5家大菱鲆养殖场的19尾大菱鲆中,7尾为TRBIV阳性或弱阳性;具有"红体"症状的大菱鲆应当划分为"病毒性红体病"、"细菌性红体病"和"非病原性红体症"3种不同的类型.本研究为TRBIV的流行情况和传播途径调查、疾病的快速诊断和控制提供了技术手段;调查结果显示TRBIV已遍布山东半岛沿海地区的大菱鲆主产区,在地域上相距较远的多个大菱鲆养殖场流行,今后需要密切关注该病毒的传播和流行.

不同生长阶段尼罗罗非鱼IGF1基因表达分析

为阐明IGF1基因在罗非鱼生长过程中的表达规律,为罗非鱼的分子选育等工作奠定了理论基础,本实验利用实时荧光定量PCR技术跟踪尼罗罗非鱼(Oreochromis niloticus)在不同生长阶段（0、20、40、60、80、125、145、165、185、205天）肝脏和肌肉胰岛素样生长因子1(IGF1)基因表达的发育性变化。结果表明：实验鱼的体重增长过程可以分为快速生长期和平稳期。在快速生长期时,肝脏IGF1基因表达水平较高,平稳期时较低,肝脏中IGF1基因表达情况与体重增长趋势基本吻合。肌肉中IGF1基因mRNA含量要低得多,而且表达模式与肝脏IGF1基因不相同。研究结果提示：IGF1 mRNA的表达具有明显的时空变化和组织特异性。肝脏中IGF1基因的表达量变化与罗非鱼体重增长趋势一致。肌肉中IGF1表达模式与肝脏中不同,提示肌肉中IGF1的分泌和作用有其自身的特异性。

Molecular characterization and PCR detection of a nitrogen-fixing Pseudomonas strain promoting rice growth

Nitrogen-fixing plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) from the genus Pseudomonas have received little attention so far. In the present study, a nitrogen-fixing phytohormone-producing bacterial isolate from kallar grass (strain K1) was identified as Pseudomonas sp. by rrs (16S ribosomal RNA gene) sequence analysis. rrs identity level was high with an uncharacterized marine bacterium (99%), Pseudomonas sp. PCP2 (98%), uncultured bacteria (98%), and Pseudomonas alcaligenes (97%). Partial nifH gene amplified from strain K1 showed 93% and 91% sequence similarities to those of Azotobacter chroococcum and Pseudomonas stutzeri, respectively. The effect of Pseudomonas strain K1 on rice varieties Super Basmati and Basmati 385 was compared with those of three non-Pseudomonas nitrogen-fixing PGPR (Azospirillum brasilense strain Wb3, Azospirillum lipoferum strain N4 and Zoogloea strain Ky1) used as single-strain inoculants. Pseudomonas sp. K1 was detected in the rhizosphere of inoculated plants by enrichment culture in nitrogen-free growth medium, which was followed by observation under the microscope as well as by PCR using a rrs-specific primer. For both rice varieties, an increase in shoot biomass and/or grain yield over that of noninoculated control plants was recorded in each inoculated treatment. The effect of Pseudomonas strain K1 on grain yield was comparable to those of A. brasilense Wb3 and Zoogloea sp. Ky1 for both rice varieties. These results show that nitrogen-fixing pseudomonads deserve attention as potential PGPR inoculants for rice.     

Survival of bacterial DNA and culturable bacteria in archived soils from the Rothamsted Broadbalk experiment

Dried soil samples from many sources have been stored in archives world-wide over the years, but there has been little research on their value for studying microbial populations. Samples collected since 1843 from the Broadbalk field experiment on crop nutrition at Rothamsted have been used to document changes in the structure and composition of soils as agricultural practices evolve, also offering an invaluable record of environmental changes from the pre- to post-industrial era in the UK. To date, the microbial communities of these soils have not been studied, in part due to the well-documented drop in bacterial culturability in dried soils. However, modern molecular methods based on PCR amplification of DNA extracted directly from soil do not require bacterial cells to be viable or intact and may allow investigations into the legacy of bacteria that were present at the time of sample collection.

In a preliminary study, to establish if dried soils can provide a historical record of bacterial communities, samples from the Broadbalk soil archive dating back to 1868 were investigated and plots treated with either farmyard manure (FYM) or inorganic fertilizer (NPK) were compared. As anticipated, the processes of air-drying and milling greatly reduced bacterial viability whilst DNA yields declined less and may be preserved by desiccation. A higher proportion of culturable bacteria survived the archiving process in the FYM soil, possibly protected by the increased soil organic matter. The majority of surviving bacteria were firmicutes, whether collected in 2003 or in 1914, but a wide range of genera was detected in DNA extracted from the samples using PCR and DGGE of 16S rRNA genes. Analysis of DGGE band profiles indicated that the two plots maintained divergent populations. Sequence analysis of bands excised from DGGE gels, from a sample collected in 1914, revealed DNA from - and β-proteobacteria as well as firmicutes. PCR using primers specific for ammonia oxidizing bacteria showed similar band profiles across the two treatments in recently collected samples, however older samples from the NPK plot showed greater divergence. Primers specific for the genus Pseudomonas were designed and used in real-time quantitative PCR to indicate that archived soil collected in 1868 contained 10-fold less pseudomonad DNA than fresh soil, representing around 10⁵ genomes g⁻¹ soil. Prior to milling, dramatically less pseudomonad DNA was extracted from recently collected air-dried soil from the NPK compared to the FYM plot; otherwise, the two plots followed similar trends. Overall bacterial abundance, diversity and survival during the archiving process differed in the two soils, possibly due to differences in clay and soil organic matter content. Nevertheless, the results demonstrate that air-dried soils can protect microbial DNA for more than 150 years and offer an invaluable resource for future research.
