We describe the draft genome of the microcrustacean Daphnia pulex, which is only 200 megabases and contains at least 30,907 genes. The high gene count is a consequence of an elevated rate of gene duplication resulting in tandem gene clusters. More than a third of Daphnia's genes have no detectable homologs in any other available proteome, and the most amplified gene families are specific to the Daphnia lineage. The coexpansion of gene families interacting within metabolic pathways suggests that the maintenance of duplicated genes is not random, and the analysis of gene expression under different environmental conditions reveals that numerous paralogs acquire divergent expression patterns soon after duplication. Daphnia-specific genes, including many additional loci within sequenced regions that are otherwise devoid of annotations, are the most responsive genes to ecological challenges. 相似文献

Tomato fruits at the green mature stage were inoculated with a mixed sporangial suspension of A1 and A2 isolates ofPhytophthora infestans. Other fruits were inoculated with either A1 or A2 sporangia. Seeds were extracted from the blighted fruits and sown in soil or on agar media to test for the transmission of
late blight to the emerging seedlings. Only 23 (0.09%) of approximately 25,000 seedlings developed symptoms. All blighted
seedlings originated from fruits inoculated with mixed A1 + A2 sporangia. Isolates ofP. infestans recovered from the emerging blighted seedlings were seemingly of oosporic origin, as they differed phenotypically (mating
type, virulence, sensitivity to metalaxyl) from the parent isolates used to inoculate the fruits. The results suggest that
transmission ofP. infestans might occur by seeds extracted from fruits carrying oospores and less probably by seeds extracted from fruits having no oospores.

The use of kinetic respiration analysis to determine soil microbial biomass its active part and maximum specific growth rate has recently increased. With this method, the increase in soil respiration rate initiated by application of carbon growth substrate, e.g. glucose, and mineral nutrients is used to estimate parameters describing microbial growth in soil. This study refines the method by developing statistical guidelines for the data analysis and processing. The kinetic respiration analysis assumes that microbial growth is not limited by substrate and energy. That is why it is critically important to identify the time period corresponding to the unlimited growth. In this work, we studied how the unlimited growth phase can be identified in less subjective ways by examining 121 datasets of respiration time series of 44 different soil samples taken from field plots. Deflection of the respiratory curve from the exponential pattern indicates growth limitation. Subjective selection of the part of respiratory curve which fits to the exponential pattern resulted in a 30% bias in specific microbial growth rates. We propose rules that are based on inspecting the patterns in a series of plots of residuals of fitted respiration rate. By comparing those rules with a set of statistical criteria we find that the weighted-coefficient of determination (r2) can be used to objectively constrain the unlimited growth phase in those cases where double-limitation does not occur. Furthermore, we discuss how the uncertainty of estimated microbial parameters is influenced by a) measurement uncertainty, b) biased measurement at the beginning of the experiment, and c) the number and timing of respiration measurements. We recommend checking plots of fits and residuals as well as reporting uncertainty bounds together with the estimated microbial parameters. A free statistical package is provided to easily deal with those aspects. 相似文献

A strain of Fusarium verticillioides was isolated from the tubercles of the parasitic weed Orobanche cumana in Israel. The pathogenicity was tested in polyethylene bags on O. cumana, O. crenata, O. aegyptiaca and O. ramosa and in pots on O. cumana and O. crenata. F. verticillioides was highly pathogenic to O. aegyptiaca, O. ramosa and O. cumana in the polyethylene bags. In pots, the fungus caused wilting and necrotic areas on flowering shoots of O. cumana, but did not cause disease symptoms on O. crenata. F. verticillioides grown on liquid Czapek growth medium produced a phytotoxic metabolite, which in leaf-puncture bioassay caused large necrotic areas on Orobanche shoots and on leaves of various crops. An extract of the fungal growth medium caused complete mortality of O. cumana and O. aegyptiaca seedlings in vitro. The toxic metabolite was isolated and identified by spectroscopic methods as fusaric acid. The identity of the compound was confirmed by conversion into the corresponding methyl ester, and by TLC comparison against authentic fusaric acid. No other phytotoxic metabolites could be detected in the growth medium extracts. 相似文献

The rhizosphere reflects a sphere of high substrate input by means of rhizodeposits. Active microorganisms and extracellular enzymes are known to be responsible for substrate utilization in soil, especially in rooted soil. We tested for microbial‐ and enzyme activities in arable soil, in order to investigate the effects of continuous input of easily available organics (e.g., root‐exudates) to the microbial community. In a field experiment with maize, rooted and root‐free soil were analyzed and rhizosphere processes were linked to microbial activity indicators such as specific microbial growth rates and kinetics of six hydrolytic extracellular enzymes: β‐glucosidase, β‐cellobiohydrolase, β‐xylosidase, acid phosphatase, leucine‐ and tyrosine‐aminopeptidase. Higher potential activities of leucine‐aminopeptidase (2‐fold) for rooted vs. root‐free soil suggested increased costs of enzyme production, which retarded the specific microbial growth rates. Total microbial biomass determined by the substrate‐induced respiration technique and dsDNA extraction method was 23% and 42% higher in the rooted surface‐layer (0–10 cm) compared to the root‐free soil, respectively. For the rooted soil, potential enzyme activities of β‐glucosidase were reduced by 23% and acid phosphatase by 25%, and increased by 300% for β‐cellobiohydrolase at 10–20 cm depth compared to the surface‐layer. The actively growing microbial biomass increased by the 17‐fold in rooted soil in the 10–20 cm layer compared to the upper 10 cm. Despite the specific microbial growth rates showing no changes in the presence of roots, these rates decreased by 42% at 10–20 cm depth compared to the surface‐layer. This suggests the dominance in abundances of highly active but slower growing microbes with depth, reflecting also their slower turnover. Shifts in microbial growth strategy, upregulation of enzyme production and increased microbial respiration indicate strong root effects in maize planted soil. 相似文献

Weeds of the genus Orobanche are obligatory chlorophyll-lacking root parasites that infect and severely damage many dicotyledonous agricultural crops in warm-temperate and subtropical regions of the world. The genus comprises over 100 species, at least six of which are notable weeds. Orobanche palaestina Reut. is an endemic Mediterranean species, previously reported to parasitize thistles [Notobasis syriaca (L.) Cass. and Cirsium phyllocephalum Boiss. & Bl.] and annual legumes in native Mediterranean habitats, mainly in disturbed places such as roadsides and waste sites. In recent years, we have observed a rapid expansion of O. palaestina populations adjacent to commercial agricultural fields in the Jezreel Valley of Israel. The ability of O. palaestina to infect crops was tested in pots under nethouse conditions. The experiments revealed that O. palaestina is able to parasitize agricultural crops. Safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.), lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.), gazania (Gazania uniflora Gaertn.), vetch (Vicia sativa L.) and artichoke (Cynara scolymus L.) were found to be potential hosts for this parasite, and all of them, except vetch and artichoke, were preferred to thistle, the native host. Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) induced O. palaestina seed germination and root attachment, but the attached parasites could not reach maturity and died soon after the attachment stage. Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.), carrot (Daucus carota L.), garland chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum coronarium L.) and cabbage (Brassica oleraceae L.) were not parasitized by O. palaestina. 相似文献

The most frequently used models simulating soil organic matter (SOM) dynamics are based on first-order kinetics. These models fail to describe and predict such interactions as priming effects (PEs), which are short-term changes in SOM decomposition induced by easily available C or N sources. We hypothesized that if decomposition rate depends not only on size of the SOM pool, but also on microbial biomass and its activity, then PE can be simulated. A simple model that included these interactions and that consisted of three C pools - SOM, microbial biomass, and easily available C - was developed. The model was parameterized and evaluated using results of 12C-CO2 and 14C-CO2 efflux after adding 14C-labeled glucose to a loamy Haplic Luvisol. Experimentally measured PE, i.e., changes in SOM decomposition induced by glucose, was compared with simulated PE. The best agreement between measured and simulated CO2 efflux was achieved by considering both the total amount of microbial biomass and its activity. Because it separately described microbial turnover and SOM decomposition, the model successfully simulated apparent and real PE.The proposed PE model was compared with three alternative approaches with similar complexity but lacking interactions between the pools and neglecting the activity of microbial biomass. The comparison showed that proposed new model best described typical PE dynamics in which the first peak of apparent PE lasted for 1 day and the subsequent real PE gradually increased during 60 days. This sequential decomposition scheme of the new model, with immediate microbial consumption only of soluble substrate, was superior to the parallel decomposition scheme with simultaneous microbial consumption of two substrates with different decomposability. Incorporating microbial activity function in the model improved the fit of simulation results with experimental data, by providing the flexibility necessary to properly describe PE dynamics. We conclude that microbial biomass should be considered in models of C and N dynamics in soil not only as a pool but also as an active driver of C and N turnover. 相似文献
