Effects of Benzyl Adenine and Abscisic Acid on Grain Yield and Yield Components in Triticale and Wheat

Grain yield and yield components (grains per ear, grain weight, 1000-grain weight, ear weight, ear seed ratio and dry matter partitioning between ear and seed) were examined in a wheat genotype (PBW-343) with well-filled grains and a Triticale genotype (DT-46) with poorly filled grains (showing grain shrivelling) grown in pots. Six days after anthesis (DAA), benzyladenine (BA) @2 µg ear⁻¹ and abscisic acid (ABA) @4 µg ear⁻¹ were injected at the base of the mother shoot ear in both species. It was observed that, in both wheat and Triticale , BA increased the grain weight, grain number and partitioning of dry matter between ear and seed, whereas ABA decreased the grain weight, grain number and dry matter partitioning between ear and seed. However, these decreases were slower in Triticale than in wheat. BA treatment increased the grain dry matter accumulation, which in turn resulted in better filling of grains and increased the grain weight in both wheat and Triticale . The average grain weight of Triticale was lower than that of wheat. Thus, it appears that variation in grain weight between wheat and Triticale might be due to different availabilities of growth-promoting phytohormones such as cytokinins and assimilates.     

Photosynthate Unloading from Seed Coats of Phaseolus vulgaris L. an Attempt to Define Conditions Required for Stimulation by Abscisic Acid and Benzylamino Purine

The instablity of the stimulation of photosynthate unloading from seed coats of Phaseolus vulgaris by abscisic acid (ABA ) and benzylamino purine ( BAP ) was studied in terms of experimental conditions. ABA stimulated photosynthate unloading at pH 6 and pH 8 without close dependence upon pH. ABA at a concentration range of 10-5-10-4 mol/L displayed stimulatory effect. However, BAP revealed no effect at a concentration range of 10-6-10-4 mol/L. Experiments designed with different transport time of 14C-photosynthate indicated that ABA might act at the plasma membrane of the unloading cells. Reducing endogenous ABA level by diminishing leaf area did not facilitate the manifestation of exogenous ABA function. Potassium ion stimulated photosynthate unloading from seed coats with highest promotion at 100 mmol/L K . However, no dependence of ABA stimulation of photosynthate unloading on K was found.     

PEG处理葡萄试管苗生理反应及叶片组织形态研究

应用不同浓度的聚乙二醇(PEG10000)处理红地球葡萄生根试管苗,在造成一定程度水分亏缺的情况下,观察葡萄试管苗的生理反应和植株生长、叶片形态解剖结构的变化。结果表明:在PEG处理下,葡萄生长发育迟滞,植株节间变短,株高变矮,但发根数量增加,根变长;新生叶片与对照比,叶片小而皱缩,气孔指数降低,上皮细胞排列更紧凑;同时葡萄试管苗脯氨酸的积累和内源ABA迅速增加。说明在一定强度的水分胁迫下,葡萄试管苗叶片的发育向增强其耐旱能力的方向进行,其渗透调节物质的积累是葡萄试管苗对长期水分胁迫的生理反应。     

猕猴桃AdCCS1基因的克隆及其表达调控

采用RT-PCR法从‘米良1号’猕猴桃中分离到1 066 bp的铜锌超氧化物歧化酶分子伴侣蛋白基因AdCCS1,登录号为KY471361。AdCCS1的开放阅读框为984 bp,编码327个氨基酸,包含3个典型结构域（N端结构域、中间结构域和C端结构域）和2个保守的金属结合位点（MXCXXC和CXC）。基因结构分析显示AdCCS1由6个外显子和5个内含子组成。系统进化分析表明AdCCS1聚在双子叶植物分支中,与茶树CsCCS的亲缘关系最近。此外,AdCCS1的5′端调控区存在多种光响应、胁迫响应和激素响应应答元件。定量PCR分析显示,AdCCS1在猕猴桃叶片中的表达量最高,其次是成熟果、花、幼果和茎,在根中的表达量最低。猕猴桃果实中AdCCS1在4 ℃低温贮藏过程中的表达量均比25 ℃贮藏中同期的低,说明低温抑制AdCCS1的表达。脱落酸和赤霉素处理后AdCCS1的表达下调,但二者的应答模式不同。     

柑桔授粉处理和单性结实子房（幼果）内源IAA,ABA和ZT含量的变化

广橙在授粉后３天内即完成受精，与未授粉子房相比，授粉子房迅速膨大，授粉处理可使内源ＩＡＡ、ＡＢＡ和ＺＴ水平急剧上升，尤其是在处理后的前３天。至第４天趋平缓。以每子房ｎｇ含量计，至处理后第３天，ＩＡＡ、ＡＢＡ和ＺＴ含量分别是处理开始时的６．８、５．２和４．１倍，而未授粉的分别为２．５、２．６和１．２倍，这种变化与子房（幼果）的发育密切相关。试验还分析了广橙授粉处理与内源激素平衡关系，发现授粉处理ＡＢ     

激素对草本植物种子休眠、萌发的影响

随着我国草产业的快速发展和草种子需求量的不断增加, 草种子的品质差和产量低已成为我国草业发展的瓶颈。研究植物种子休眠和萌发规律是提高种子品质和产量的前提之一, 对于保障草种业的健康发展具有重要意义。植物激素是调节种子休眠、萌发的关键因子, 其与种子休眠、萌发的关系一直是种子生理生化研究的热点。本文旨在综合激素对草本植物种子休眠、萌发影响的研究结果, 为进一步分析各种激素间相互作用的机理、揭示植物种子休眠与萌发的生理机制奠定基础。     

柚三倍体种子败育过程观察及内源激素消长动态

以柑橘异源四倍体为父本与单胚性柚杂交后,其三倍体种子的集中败育期为授粉后90～110 d,在柚的第2次生理落果(授粉后60d)之后,即三倍体种子的集中败育不会引起柚的大量落果.采用固相抗体型酶联免疫吸附测定法(ELISA)对柚三倍体种子及果肉中GA1/3、ABA的检测可知,随着种子的成熟或败育,GA1/3含量较低(0.019～0.025 nmol·g-1),并呈下降趋势,ABA含量上升至最大值10.84nmol·g-1.同一发育时期,果肉中ABA含量缓慢上升,GA1/3含量也有波动,但GA1/3一直处于主导地位,因此柚三倍体种子虽大量败育,引起果实发育的暂时变缓,但并不能改变或阻止果实的正常发育进程.     

Highly recurrent BRAF p.V595E mutation in canine papillary oral squamous cell carcinoma

Oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) is the most common oral epithelial malignancy in dogs. It exhibits locally aggressive biological behaviour with the potential to metastasize, and a reported 1-year survival rate of 0% when left untreated. Expression studies suggest that aberrant MAPK signalling plays a key role in canine OSCC tumorigenesis, which is consistent with BRAF and HRAS MAPK-activating mutations reported in some tumours. Several morphological subtypes of canine OSCC have been described, with papillary, conventional, and basaloid as the most common patterns. We hypothesized that mutational differences may underlie these phenotypic variations. In this study, targeted Sanger sequencing and restriction fragment length polymorphism assays demonstrate that up to 85.7% of canine papillary OSCC (n = 14) harbour a BRAF p.V595E mutation. Assessment of neoplastic epithelial cell proliferation using Ki67 immunolabelling (n = 10) confirmed a relatively high proliferation activity, consistent with their known aggressive clinical behaviour. These findings underscore a consistent genetic feature of canine papillary OSCC and provide a basis for the development of novel diagnostic and targeted therapeutic approaches that can improve the quality of veterinary care.
