This study reported the traits values such as colour, feed conversion ratio (FCR), specific growth rate (SGR) and fluorescence capacity of F1 hybrids of Amphiprion percula (male) and A. ocellaris (female). The hybrids exhibited significant variation in FCR (3.63 ± 0.56) and SGR (3.63% ± 0.44) compared with the pure breeds, A. percula (3.12 ± 0.42; 2.80% ± 0.42) and A. ocellaris (3.17 ± 0.43; 3.02% ± 0.19). An exponential relationship was found between FCR and SGR in both the breeds. Image analysis displayed a better colour performance of hybrid than the pure breeds. Individual body parts of the hybrid and pure breeds showed significant colour variation between each other. However, colour contrast of whole body of hybrid was found closer to A. ocellaris in hue cone and towards A. percula in saturation and brightness values. Hence, hybrid displays combination colour reflexion of both the parents. The total pigment content of hybrid (65.71 μg g?1 ± 2.81) was found higher than A. ocellaris (62.01 μg g?1 ± 2.29) and A. percula (56.71 μg g?1 ± 2.56). Further, the spectroflurometric analysis revealed that the both hybrid and pure breeds having poor fluorescence on skin pigmentation. A direct positive heterosis was observed on the SGR, FCR, total pigment and spawning frequency, while negative effect was noted on total length of newly hatched larvae (TL), fertilization rate (FrR), hatching rate (HR), deformation rate (DFR) and survival rate (SR). Hence, multiple cross‐breeding programmes will help in developing high‐quality traits in successive generations. 相似文献

This study attempted to assess the efficacy of mangrove‐derived marine yeasts as a source of immuno‐stimulant in the tiger shrimp, Penaeus monodon. The shrimp was fed on the diets in supplementation with yeast biomass at 10% for a period of 15 days and then challenged with the pathogenic Vibrio cholerae. The animals were assessed for immune responses in terms of total haemocyte counts, phenol oxidase and endobiotics. Among the yeasts tested, Rhodotorula minuta was found to have high immunostimulatory effect in the shrimps especially after challenge with the pathogenic vibrio. 相似文献

Invasive weeds degrade ecosystems and are a threat to plant and animal biodiversity. The literature on biological invasions suggests that only 10% of introduced species become invasive in a new host range. Most introduced plants do not become invasive in a new environment. The invasive behavior of a weed depends on the weed's genetic variability, biotic factors, and climatic factors with which it interacts. The climatic factors that affect the invasive traits of weeds include the atmospheric temperature, soil temperature, precipitation, evaporation, and CO2 concentration. The biological traits that are influenced by a change in any one or more of these climatic factors include the pattern of assimilate partitioning, induction of dormancy or seed germination, herbivore tolerance, propagule production and distribution, variability of plant architecture, photosynthetic rate, and seedbank longevity. The impact of climate change on the invasive traits of certain weed species is reviewed. 相似文献

The genetic relationship among three cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) systems, consisting of WA, Dissi, and Gambiaca, was
studied. The results showed that the maintainers of one CMS system can also maintain sterility in other cytoplasmic backgrounds.
The F1 plants derived from crosses involving A and R lines of the respective cytoplasm and their cross-combination with other CMS
systems showed similar pollen and spikelet fertility values, indicating that similar biological processes govern fertility
restoration in these three CMS systems. The results from an inheritance study showed that the pollen fertility restoration
in all three CMS systems was governed by two independent and dominant genes with classical duplicate gene action. Three F2 populations, generated from the crosses between the parents of good-performing rice hybrids, that possess WA, Dissi, and
Gambiaca CMS cytoplasm, were used to map the Rf genes. For the WA-CMS system, Rf3 was located at a distance of 2.8 cM from RM490 on chromosome 1 and Rf4 was located at 1.6 cM from RM1108 on chromosome 10. For the Dissi-CMS system, Rf3 was located on chromosome 1 at 1.9 cM from RM7466 and Rf4 on chromosome 10 was located at 2.3 cM from RM6100. The effect of Rf3 on pollen fertility appeared to be stronger than the effect of Rf4. In the Gambiaca-CMS system, only one major locus was mapped on chromosome 1 at 2.1 cM from RM576. These studies have led
to the development of marker-assisted selection (MAS) for selecting putative restorer lines, new approaches to alloplasmic
line breeding, and the transfer of Rf genes into adapted cultivars through a backcrossing program in an active hybrid rice breeding program. 相似文献

Allelopathic potential of native plants against water hyacinth 总被引:14,自引:0,他引:14
RM. Kathiresan 《Crop Protection》2000,19(8-10):705-708
Classical biocontrol of water hyacinth using insects in India is constrained by seasonal occurrence of water flow and interrupted host range. Use of fungal pathogens is also difficult due to lack of shelf-life and virulence under severe climatic fluctuations and a lack of knowledge of spray techniques. Hence, the allelopathic potential of native plants is reviewed for use as an alternative bio-control tactic. Dried powder of the leaves of Omavalli Coleus amboinicus L. at 40 g l−1 as a water suspension killed water hyacinth within 24 h reducing the fresh weight by 80.72% and the dry weight by 75.63% within one week. The lowest dose required to kill the whole plant was 10 g l−1. Coleus powder was injurious to cut leaves of water hyacinth even at 0.1 g l−1 dose as it was absorbed directly by the cut leaf, indicating that the dose required to kill the whole plant could still be reduced, if either the natural product or the active principle is formulated for absorption through foliage. 相似文献

Oil spill leaves detrimental effects to environment, living organisms, and economy. As such, it is of considerable interest to find an effective, simple, and inexpensive method to treat this calamity. This work reports the use of banana trunk fibers (BTF) modified with oleic acid, stearic acid, castor oil, and palm oil for oil spill recovery. The maximum sorption capacity, effect of oil to water ratio, effect of light oil fractions, and effect of dissolved organic compounds in weathered oil-contaminated seawater were studied. It is found that BTF treated with oleic acid exhibited the best sorption capacity for engine oil, dissolved organic compounds in weathered oil, and light oil fractions. The equilibrium process was described well by the Freundlich isotherm model, and the kinetic studies show good correlation coefficients for a pseudo-second-order kinetic model. 相似文献

Development and use of a two-gene marker-aided selection system for fertility restorer genes in rice 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

We have established marker-aided selection strategies for the two major Rf genes (Rf3 and Rf4) governing fertility restoration of␣cytoplasmic-genetic male sterility (CMS) in rice. Polymorphisms between restorer and
non-restorer␣lines were observed using RG140/PvuII for Rf3 located on chromosome 1 and S10019/BstUI for Rf4 located on chromosome 10. DNA polymorphisms associated with these two loci in restorer lines of wild abortive (WA), Dissi, and Gambiaca cytoplasm are
conserved, suggesting that similar biological processes control pollen fertility in this diverse cytoplasm. Because of their
close linkage to Rf genes and distinct banding patterns, STS markers RG140/PvuII and S10019/BstUI are well suited for marker-aided selection, enhanced backcross procedures, and pyramiding of Rf genes in agronomically superior non-restorer lines. The combined use of markers associated with these two loci improved the
efficiency of screening for putative restorer lines from a set of elite lines. Positional analyses of Rf4 and the inheritance pattern of the polymorphism in S10019/BstUI suggest that Rf4, governing fertility restoration in WA-CMS in rice, is likely to be the same gene governing fertility restoration in BT-
and HL-CMS that has a gametophytic effect, which explains why 100% pollen fertility in hybrids is impossible to attain. 相似文献

This work quantified the total carbon and 12 other sediment characteristics at 10 soil depths, in planted and or natural mangrove forests in comparison with non-vegetated soil for four seasons of the year 2009-2010 in the Vellar-Coleroon estuarine complex, India. The sedi- ment characteristics varied significantly between mangrove-vegetated and non-vegetated habitats or seasons of analysis, but not between soil depths. The mangrove sediments were rich in total carbon and total or- ganic carbon as compared to non-mangrove sediments (p 〈0.01). Total carbon was 98.2% higher in mature mangroves and 41.8% in planted mangroves than that in non-mangrove soil. Total organic carbon was as much as 2.5 times greater in mature mangroves and 2 times greater in planted mangroves than that in unvegetated soil. Carbon contents also varied many fold by season. Total carbon content was 8.6 times greater during pre-monsoon, 4.1 times greater during post-monsoon and 2.5 times greater during monsoon than during summer (P〈0.01 in all cases). Similarly, total organic carbon was 5.9 times greater during pre-monsoon, 3.1 times greater during post-monsoon and 69% greater during monsoon than during summer. In general, higher levels of sediment carbon were recorded during pre and post-monsoon seasons than during other seasons. Total carbon concentration was correlated negatively to temperature, sand and phosphorus (P 〈0.01); positively correlated with redox potential, silt, clay, C/N ratio, potassium (P 〈0.01) and nitrogen (P〈0.05); but not correlated with soil depth, pH or salinity. This work revealed that the carbon burial was rapid at the annual rate of 2.8% for total carbon, and 6.7% for total organic carbon in mangrove-planted sediment. Cleating of mangroves can result in significantly and rapidly reduced carbon stores.Our study highlights the importance of natural and plantation mangrove stands for conserving sediment carbon in the tropical coastal domain. 相似文献

Growth in terms of shoot dry weight was studied in five species of mangroves, namely Avicennia marina, A. officinalis, Ceriops decandra, Rhizophora apicuhta and R. mucronata, raised in shrimp pond-derived effluent. The effluent had significant negative effect over diluted effluents on shoot dry weight in R. apiculata and C. decandra, but not in the other three species, in general, the effluent, when diluted by 70%, improved the shoot biomass production of mangrove seedlings. 相似文献
