Factors influencing tissue culture responses of mature seeds and immature embryos in turf-type tall fescue

In an effort to optimize tissue culture responses of turf‐type tall fescue for genetic transformation, the effects of five culture medium supplements on tissue culture responses were investigated with immature embryos and mature seeds of an elite cultivar, ‘Coronado’, as explant tissues. For both explants, calli induced on 6‐benzylaminopurine (BAP)‐containing medium had significantly improved regeneration ability. The optimal concentration of BAP for the induction of regenerable callus from mature seeds was 0.1 mg/l. Thidiazuron also improved callus regeneration frequency of mature seeds. Casein hydrolysate, L‐proline and myo‐inositol improved callus induction of immature embryos but not mature seeds. They did not improve callus regeneration frequencies with either explant tissue. By simply slicing the mature seeds into two halves longitudinally, the callus induction frequencies, as well as the corresponding overall plant regeneration frequencies, were increased approximately three‐ to six‐fold in all three combinations of 2,4‐dichlorophenoxyacetic acid and BAP in callus induction media.     

Myo-inositol prevents oxidative damage, inhibits oxygen radical generation and increases antioxidant enzyme activities of juvenile Jian carp (Cyprinus carpio var. Jian)

This study was conducted to evaluate the effects of dietary myo -inositol (MI) on the antioxidant status of juvenile Jian carp ( Cyprinus carpio var. Jian). A total of 1050 Jian carp (22.28±0.07 g) were randomly distributed into seven groups of three replicates each, feeding diets containing graded levels of MI (163.5, 232.7, 384.2, 535.8, 687.3, 838.8 and 990.3 mg kg⁻¹ diet) for 60 days. Results indicated that the malondialdehyde content was the lowest for fish fed diets containing ≥384.2 mg MI kg⁻¹, and the highest for fish fed the MI-unsupplemented basal diet ( P <0.05). The protein carbonyl content was decreased with increasing dietary MI levels up to 535.8 mg kg⁻¹ diet, and no differences were found with a further increase in the MI concentration. The anti-superoxide anion capacity (ASA) and anti-hydroxyl radical capacity (AHR) were increased with increasing MI levels up to 535.8 mg kg⁻¹ diet, and plateaued thereafter. The superoxide dismutase and glutathione- S -transferase activities showed the same tendency with the ASA capacity. Catalase, glutathione peroxidase and glutathione reducase activities were improved with increasing MI levels up to 838.8, 384.2 and 687.3 mg kg⁻¹ diet, respectively, and remained nearly constant thereafter. These results suggested that MI could inhibit oxygen radical generation, increase enzymatic antioxidant capacity and prevent oxidative damage of carp. Dietary MI requirements for ASA and AHR activities of juvenile Jian carp were 567.94 and 517.22 mg MI kg⁻¹ diet respectively.     

蒙脱石-氧化铁复合体的表征及其对不同形态磷的吸附特性

制备了蒙脱石-针铁矿复合体(Mt-Goe)和蒙脱石-非/弱晶质氧化铁复合体(Mt-HFO),研究了它们的结构、表面性质及其对无机磷酸盐(Pi)和植酸(IHP)的吸附特性。结果显示,Mt-Goe中少量羟基铁离子进入了蒙脱石晶层间导致其层间距增大,针铁矿颗粒较好地包被在蒙脱石外表面;Mt-HFO中蒙脱石层间则发生了Fe~(3+)水解,生成了(羟基)铁氧化物,并在蒙脱石表面形成非晶质氧化铁颗粒。蒙脱石、Mt-Goe和Mt-HFO的比表面积分别为258.7、185.4和226.4 m~2·g~(–1),其表面分形度、等电点和表面羟基含量均依次升高,pH5.5时的表面Zeta电位分别为–46.1、–13.6和–19.4 mV。3种样品对Pi和IHP的吸附模式以匀质性表面单层吸附为主,Langmuir饱和吸附量(qmax)和吸附亲和力均表现为由大到小依次为Mt-HFO、Mt-Goe、蒙脱石。3种样品对Pi和IHP的动力学吸附过程适合用准二级动力学模型描述,其速率常数由小到大依次为Mt-HFO、Mt-Goe、蒙脱石。与吸附Pi相比,3种样品吸附IHP的动力学速率常数明显减小,吸附量明显增大;Mt-HFO对IHP的吸附速率尤其缓慢,而吸附量远大于对Pi的吸附量。     

水稻肌醇加氧酶基因的表达分析及植物表达载体的构建

为研究水稻肌醇加氧酶基因在植物水分胁迫分子应答中的作用,采用RT-PCR技术克隆了水稻肌醇加氧酶基因的cDNA编码区,命名为OsMIOX。该基因由927个碱基组成,编码308个氨基酸,与拟南芥肌醇加氧酶的氨基酸序列相比,同源性为78%。将克隆的OsMIOX基因连接pCAMBIA-1301载体,成功构建了35 s启动子驱动的植物超表达载体。实时定量PCR分析结果表明,水分胁迫下OsMIOX基因在旱稻IRAT109中上调表达,在旱稻(IRAT109和毫格劳)中的表达量显著高于水稻(越富和日本晴)。这说明水稻和旱稻的水分胁迫分子反应机制的确存在差异,而这种差异很可能就是水、旱稻抗旱性不同的原因之一。     

Interaction of phytases with minerals and availability of substrate affect the hydrolysis of inositol phosphates

The stability and activity of phytases in the soil environment may be affected by their sorption on soil particle surfaces and by substrate availability with important consequences for P cycling and nutrient bioavailability. This work evaluated the interaction of phytases with goethite, haematite, kaolinite, montmorillonite and two oxisol clays and investigated how this interaction is affected when myo-inositol hexakisphosphate (InsP₆) was sorbed on the mineral surfaces. phyA histidine acid phosphatases of fungal origin were used and their ability to release orthophosphate from the InsP₆-saturated minerals was evaluated.The phytases showed a high affinity for the mineral surfaces, with a loss of enzyme activity generally being observed over 24 h (up to 95% of the initially added activity). The loss of phytase activity was dependent on the type of mineral, with kaolinite and montmorillonite showing the greatest effect. Retention of enzyme activity was higher with the two oxisol clays, suggesting that the heterogeneous nature of clay surfaces and the presence of endogenous organic matter may limit the inhibition caused by interaction with minerals.In the presence of mineral surfaces saturated with InsP₆, the partitioning of enzyme activity between the solution and the solid phase was shifted more towards the solution phase, presumably due to the mineral surfaces being occupied by the substrate. However, phytases were not able to release any orthophosphate directly from InsP₆-saturated goethite and haematite, and hydrolysed InsP₆ that was desorbed from haematite. Conversely, in the case of kaolinite and of the oxisol clays, where desorption was limited, phytases appeared to be able to hydrolyse a small fraction of the InsP₆ adsorbed on the surfaces. These findings suggest that the bioavailability of P from inositol phosphates is governed to a large extent by the mineral composition of soil and by competitive effects for sorption on reactive surfaces among inositol phosphates and phytases.     

Composition of amino acids,organic acids,and sugars in the peribacteroid space of soybean root nodules

In leguminous root nodules, bacteroids are differentiated from rhizobia and are surrounded by a peribacteroid membrane (PBM) forming an intracellular structure designated as symbiosome. Through the peribacteroid space (PBS) between the PBM and bacteroids, metabolic substances and signal compounds are exchanged between two symbionts. In this study, organic compounds with low molecular weight in the PBS were collected from isolated symbiosomes of soybean (Glycine max L.) root nodules, and their composition was analyzed and compared with that of the organic compounds in whole root nodules and bacteroids. Major differences were detected in the molar percentages of amino and organic acids, and sugars, to the total low molecular weight organic compounds among whole root nodules, PBS, and bacteroids. The PBS composition was characterized by abundant sugars and poor amino acids. Also the composition of the amino acids, organic acids, and sugars in the PBS was clearly different from that in whole root nodules and bacteroids. The PBS sugar composition was characterized by the predominance of inositols, especially myo-inositol at the 5th and 7th weeks of the host plant growth stages. Changes in the myo- and D-chiro- inositol balance at the host plant growth stages occurred and a syntony was observed between the PBS and bacteroids. The localization of myo-inositol in the PBS accounted for almost 70% of the total myo-inositol in root nodules. A small difference in the PBS composition between two soybean cultivars was recorded but it varied with the growth stages. It was tentatively concluded that the PBS sugar composition affected the bacteroidal sugar composition in soybean plants, and that inositol utilization in the bacteroids could be a factor controlling the bacteroidal function level which varied with the host plant growth stages.     

肌醇对哲罗鲑抗氧化能力的影响及组织病理学观察

为期56 d的饲养试验旨在探讨肌醇对哲罗鲑( Hucho taimen)抗氧化能力的影响,并进行不同肌醇含量下哲罗鲑肠道、肝脏的组织病理学观察。选择平均体重为(2.83±0.44) g健康的哲罗鲑630尾,随机分为7组(每组3个重复,每个重复30尾鱼),分别饲喂以鱼粉、明胶和酪蛋白为蛋白质源配制的肌醇含量为99.8(不额外添加肌醇)、199.8、299.8、499.8、699.8、899.8和5099.8 mg/kg的7种试验饲料。结果表明：饲料中肌醇含量显著影响肝脏中超氧化物歧化酶( SOD)活性和丙二醛( MDA)含量( P<0.05)。肝脏SOD活性在899.8 mg/kg组达最高值,显著高于99.8、199.8和5099.8 mg/kg组( P<0.05);肝脏MDA含量随着肌醇含量的升高呈先下降后上升趋势,在499.8 mg/kg组达最低值,显著低于99.8和199.8 mg/kg组( P<0.05)。饲料中肌醇含量过低(99.8 mg/kg)或过高(5099.8 mg/kg)时均会使组织发生病理性损伤,比如肝脏会出现空泡变性,细胞轮廓模糊等情况;肠道褶皱变宽变短,排列疏松。由此得出,饲料中肌醇含量为299.8~899.8 mg/kg时哲罗鲑的抗氧化能力较高;饲料中肌醇含量过高或过低都会导致哲罗鲑抗氧化能力降低,肠道、肝脏发生不同程度的病变。     

肌醇对哲罗鲑生长性能、体成分及消化酶活性的影响

为了探讨肌醇对哲罗鲑(Hucho taimen)生长性能、体成分及消化酶活性的影响, 以鱼粉、明胶和酪蛋白为蛋白源配制肌醇含量为99.8(不添加肌醇)、199.8、299.8、499.8、699.8、899.8和5 099.8 mg/kg的7种饲料, 分别投喂7个处理组, 每组3个重复, 每重复30尾鱼, 进行为期56 d的饲养实验。结果表明, 投喂肌醇含量为499.8 mg/kg饲料组的增重率最大, 且与添加量低于299.8 mg/kg的3个饲料组差异显著(P<0.05)。饲料系数在499.8 mg/kg饲料组最低, 在5 099.8 mg/kg饲料组最高, 两组间差异显著(P<0.05)。肌醇含量为499.8~899.8 mg/kg饲料组的特定生长率显著高于99.8~299.8 mg/kg及5 099.8 mg/kg饲料组(P<0.05)。肌肉中水分、粗脂肪和粗蛋白各组间差异不显著(P>0.05), 肝淀粉酶、幽门盲囊脂肪酶活性各组间差异不显著(P>0.05)。肠道蛋白酶活性在肌醇含量为199.8~499.8 mg/kg饲料组较高, 显著高于其他组(P<0.05), 脂肪酶活性在299.8~899.8 mg/kg饲料组高于99.8 mg/kg饲料组(P<0.05)。由此得出, 饲料中适量添加肌醇可提高哲罗鲑的生长性能及消化酶活性; 肌醇含量过低时哲罗鲑增重率、消化酶活性均较低; 肌醇含量过高时哲罗鲑特定增长率、消化酶活性较低, 饲料系数较高; 以增重率为指标由折线回归模型分析得出, 肌醇的最适含量为536.6 mg/kg饲料。
