Agrobacterium-mediated transformation of Kentucky bluegrass

Embryogenic calli of Kentucky bluegrass, named Md, were induced from mature seeds and embryos, and proliferated on medium K3 containing 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D, 10.0 mumol/L), 6-benzylaminopurine (BAR, 0.5 mumol/L) and K5 which was the K3 medium supplemented with cupric sulfa (0.5 mumol/L) under dim-light condition (20-30 mumol.m(-2).s-1, 16 h light) at 24 degreesC. Embryogenic calli were transformed with plasmids pDM805 Carring bar and gus genes, Which was mediated by an Agrobacterium strain AGL1, four transgenic lines were obtained. The important factors that affect the transformation efficiency and obtain desirable number of transgenic plants included: (1) the quality of embryogenic calli; (2) light condition and time of co-cultivation; (3) concentration of antibiotics used for suppressing the overgrowth of Agrobacterium in the course of transformed plant regeneration; (4) selection pressure, etc. The micro nutrient of cupric had significant influence on the quality of embryogenic calli. This presentation is the first successful protocol of Kentucky bluegrass transformation mediated by Agrobacterium.

A New Discrimination Method of Maize Seed Varieties Based on Near-Infrared Spectroscopy

A new discrimination method for the maize seed varieties based on the near-infrared spectroscopy was proposed. The reflectance spectra of maize seeds were obtained by a FT-NIR spectrometer (12 000-4 000 cm(-1)). The original spectra data were preprocessed by first derivative method. Then the principal component analysis (PCA) was used to compress the spectra data. The principal components with the cumulate reliabilities more than 80% were used to build the discrimination models. The model was established by Psi-3 neuron based on biomimetic pattern recognition (BPR). Especially, the parameter of the covering index was proposed to assist to discriminating the variety of a seed sample. The authors tested the discrimination capability of the model through four groups of experiments. There were 10, 18, 26 and 34 varieties training the discrimination models in these experiments, respectively. Additionally, another seven maize varieties and nine wheat varieties were used to test the capability of the models to reject the varieties not participating in training the models. Each group of the experiment was repeated three times by selecting different training samples at random. The correct classification rates of the models in the four-group experiments were above 91. 8%. The correct rejection rates for the varieties not participating in training the models all attained above 95%. Furthermore, the performance of the discrimination models did not change obviously when using the different training samples. The results showed that this discrimination method can not only effectively recognize the maize seed varieties, but also reject the varieties not participating in training the model. It may be practical in the discrimination of maize seed varieties.

镉对花生品质影响及胁迫响应机制研究

近年来，我国花生重金属镉超标的现象屡见不鲜，致使花生在我国出口创汇的能力受到了严重影响。因此，本项研究选用北方两种花生－锦花5号和阜花13号为供试材料，采用室外盆栽方式，初步探讨了镉胁迫对花生品质的影响及花生对镉胁迫的响应机制，揭示了花生易富集镉和对镉高耐性的原因。 1．在外源高镉处理下，两品种花生的产量随镉处理浓度的增加而降低；籽实Cd含量均随土壤中Cd含量的增加而显著增加（p＜0.05），在土壤低Cd处理时，花生籽实更易富集Cd；花生受Cd胁迫后，籽实的亮氨酸含量受Cd的影响较为严重；氨基酸组成比例在较低镉处理剂量下未受到影响。 2．受Cd污染的花生籽实，种皮Cd含量较高；蛋白质是络合镉的主要营养部位，而脂肪中镉的含量甚微，研究处理范围内均低于食品中Cd的限量值0.2 mg•kg-1 ；因此供试花生籽实不能作为人体对植物蛋白的来源，但可以作为人体对食用油脂的来源。 3．花生籽实中存在植物螯合肽PC4，它在花生中镉的耐性方面发挥着重要的作用。尽管非蛋白巯基（NPT）、半胱氨酸（Cys）、PC4和脯氨酸（Pro）含量受作物品种和外源镉处理剂量的影响，但它们对籽实中重金属镉的络合发挥着作用。此外，脯氨酸（Pro）还可以作为花生受镉胁迫的生物指示物。

瓦山安息香中苯并呋喃促雌激素合成的机理研究

雌激素是人体内重要的激素之一，具有广泛的生理功能。雌激素缺乏与许多疾病相关，如卵巢功能低下，更年期综合征以及骨质疏松等；雌激素过剩也将导致某些疾病，如乳腺癌、卵巢癌、子宫内膜癌等。目前，如何降低肿瘤组织中的雌激素水平而达到治疗肿瘤的目的，已经得到广泛的研究，但促雌激素生成或调节卵巢功能药物或其相关研究则很少。 本实验室前期的研究发现，瓦山安息香属植物果实中的乙醇提取物具有促雌激素生成作用，通过活性追踪和结构鉴定，确认促E2 生成的主要成分为苯并呋喃类化合物。苯并呋喃类化合物的作用与芳香酶有关，但其确切的作用机理有待证实和深入研究。 为了探讨安息香苯并呋喃类化合物的促雌激素合成的作用机理，拟采用如下的实验方案： 1、细胞学方面，对小鼠3T3-L1 前脂肪细胞、人乳腺癌细胞MCF-7、MDA-MB-231 以及人卵巢癌细胞OVCAR-3、OVCAR-4、OVCAR-5、OVCAR-8、IGROV1 等细胞株，采用RT-PCR 和ELISA 方法研究芳香酶Aro基因的表达和雌二醇E2 的生成，芳香酶抑制剂Formestane 作为阳性对照，研究时效曲线和量效曲线，确定安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 的有效浓度和作用时间。 2、RNAi 方面，设计合成了针对人芳香酶Aro基因的3 对RNAi 序列，转染入细胞，芳香酶促进剂Forskolin 和地塞米松、芳香酶抑制剂Formestane 作为阳性对照，采用实时定量PCR 技术，研究RNA 干扰后，安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 对人芳香酶Aro基因表达水平瓦山安息香苯并呋喃促雌激素合成的机理研究的影响。 3、雌激素受体方面，设计一段ERE 的雌激素调控元件，构建重组荧光素酶报告基因载体，瞬时转染人乳腺癌细胞株MDA-MB-231，建立针对雌激素受体的报告基因筛选模型，观察安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 对雌激素受体的选择性和亲和力，从受体水平考察安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 促进雌激素生成的药理学机理。 实验结果显示： 1、分化后的小鼠3T3-L1 前脂肪细胞、人乳腺癌细胞MCF-7 、MDA-MB-231 以及人卵巢癌细胞OVCAR-3、OVCAR-4、OVCAR-8 等细胞株具有芳香酶基因的表达。睾酮向雌二醇的转化能够被芳香酶抑制剂Formestane 所阻断，其中OVCAR-3 最适合进行下一步的RNAi研究。 2、RNAi 实验结果显示，设计的3 对RNAi 序列中R2 的干扰效果最强，相应的阴性对照C2 与R2 的表达量相差118 倍（24 小时）和19 倍（48 小时），显示R2/C2 这组序列可用于进一步的RNAi 试验。以R2 干扰OVCAR-3 细胞株，药物作用24、48 小时后，芳香酶抑制剂Formestane 与R2 相对表达量相比分别为0.83 倍和0.04 倍；芳香酶促进剂Forskolin 与R2 相对表达量相比分别为3.61 和1.84 倍；芳香酶促进剂地塞米松与R2 相对表达量相比分别为5.76 倍和3.49倍；苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 与R2 相对表达量相比分别为8.13 倍和4.59 倍。实验证实安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 能够促进因RNAi 而发生基因沉默的人芳香酶Aro表达水平的上调。 3、雌激素受体实验结果显示，构建成功重组pERE-pGL3-promoter 荧光素酶报告基因载体和基于报告基因系统的雌激素受体激动剂或拮抗剂的细胞筛选模型。实验结果表明安息香苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 与雌激素受体ERα和ERβ亲和力选择性之比约为3：1 ，SP25通过与雌激素受体ERα结合作用其受体，刺激芳香酶的表达。 本课题通过RNA 干扰、ELISA、荧光实时定量PCR、报告基因筛选模型等技术手段，从细胞水平、蛋白酶水平和基因表达水平、雌激素受体水平等方面系统地研究了从瓦山安息香属植物果实中提取的苯并呋喃SP25 促进促雌激素生成的机理研究。试验结果显示苯并呋喃类化合物SP25 促雌激素生成的主要作用机制是直接促进芳香酶基因表达水平，以及与雌激素受体a 结合，刺激芳香酶活性。 Estrogen is an important hormone that has versatile physiologicalfunctions. Lack of estrogen will lead to many diseases such as lower ovarianfunction, climacteric syndrome and osteoporosis. Excessive estrogen alsoinduces breast carcinoma, oophoroma and endometrial carcinoma and otherdiseases. To depress the estrogen level in tumor tissue to cure carcinomawas widely studied, but there is only few studies reported on the induction ofestrogen and on the regulation of ovary function. We found that the extracts from seeds of Styrax perkinsiae couldpromote the synthesis of estrogen. The active compounds benzofurans wereidentified. Effect of benzofurans may be related to aromatase, but the mechanism was not clear. To reveal the mechanism of these benzofurans to promote estrogensynthesis, the following protocols were adopted: 1 Cytology: 3T3-L1 preadipocytes,human ovary carcinoma celllines OVCAR-3,OVCAR-4,OVCAR-5,OVCAR-8,IGROV1 andbreast carcinoma cell lines MCF-7 and MDA-MB-231 were usedto determine Aro gene expression and estrogen production withRT-PCR AND ELISA methods. Formestane, an aromataseinhibitor, was used as positive control. And dose-curve,time-curve and the effective concentration of SP25 were also studied. 2 Designed 3 pairs of RNAi for human aromatase gene, andtransfected into cell. Aromatase inducer Forskolin andDexamethasone, and aromatase inhibitor Formestane were usedas positive controls. We studied the change of Aro expressionlevel with SP25 by using real-time PCR after RNA interfering. 3 Estrogen Receptor: We constructed the recombined Luciferasereport vector and establish a screening system for estrogenagonist and antagon. With this system, we studied the affinity ofSP25 and estrogen receptor. Results: 1 Differentiated 3T3-L1 preadipocytes¡¢human ovary carcinomacell lines:OVCAR-3, OVCAR-4, OVCAR-8 and breast carcinomacell lines MCF-7, MDA-MB-231 had detected aromatase geneexpression.And OVCAR-3 is more suitable for further aromatasegene function research. 2 In RNAi assay, R2 has a strong interfering effcet in OVCAR-3 cellline, and ratio of C2 (the negative control) to R2 were 118 times(24 hours) and 19 times (48 hours). This means sucessful inRNA interfering. After R2 acted on OVCAR-3 cell line, the ratiosof formestane to R2 were 0.83 and 0.04 times, 5.76 and 3.49times (Dex), 3.61 and 1.84 times (forskolin) and 8.13 and 4.59times (sp25) after drug treated 24 or 48 hours respectively.These results indicated that SP25 can directly induce aromatasegene up-regulation. 3 We had constructed pERE-pGL3-promoter recombined vectorand the Luciferase report gene screening system. Luciferasereport gene assay showed that sp25 had a higher affinity with strogen receptor alpha than estrogen receptor beta, this indicated that SP25 can act on estrogen receptor and induce aromatase. Our results revealed that the mechanisms of benzofuran to promoteestrogen were the upregulation aromatase gene expression and promotion ofaromatase activity and have partially elective affinity with estrogen receptoralpha.

川西亚高山云杉人工林天然更新与生境异质性研究

川西亚高山针叶林是四川森林的主体，是长江上游重要的生态屏障。云杉作为亚高山针叶林人工更新的主要树种，已经在该地区形成了大面积的人工纯林。目前，许多云杉人工林分已经进入更新成熟龄，而这些人工林的持续更新却成为日益凸现的问题。探讨这些云杉人工林的自我更新潜力及云杉种子种群更新特点，可为培育后续森林资源提供科学依据。 本文以川西米亚罗亚高山60a云杉人工林为研究对象，并以该区域内相对稳定的植被群落——天然林为对照，采用种子收集器、土壤种子库筛选、室内外种子萌发实验及野外幼苗调查等方法，从异质性微生境的角度研究了种子雨下落之后，不同微生境对种子库、种子萌发、幼苗建立及分布这一前期更新过程的影响，得出如下结果： 1、通过对川西亚高山60a云杉人工林和天然林6年内种子雨雨量、形态特征、散步动态等的持续观测和综合比较可以发现，云杉林结实特点由于林木自身的特征存在着巨大的变动，2002年和2006年两个种子结实大年内，60a人工林种子雨强度分别达到1088.2 ± 52.3粒/m2和704.3 ± 48.9粒/m2，远大于天然林579.9 ± 28.9粒/m2 和507.5± 30.7粒/m2；且云杉林结实质量优于天然林。60a人工林结实量大，种子质量也最好，相对天然林来说对种群的天然更新以及群落的演替都有最大的贡献潜力。应该说，在川西亚高山云杉人工林的天然更新过程中，种源不是影响天然更新的因素。在种子结实大年里，达到更新成熟的云杉人工林有着优于该地区相对稳定植被群落——天然林的种源优势。至少在种子结实大年，种子供应不是该区域人工林天然更新的限制因子。 2、相对于天然林种子库，人工林种子库在种子萌发前能够有较多的有活力种子。虽然这其中有种子雨输入量有差别的因素存在，但两种林分种子库对种子的保存率的不同才是造成这种差异的主要因素。在人工林中，不同地被类型形成的微生境显著地影响了种子库中种子的密度、垂直分布。有地被物存在的微生境能够将种子雨的大部分截留在地被层中，成为幼苗出现的主要场所；同时不同的地被物对种子的保存情况存在显著的差异，苔藓和凋落物层能都较好地保持其中的种子，到种子萌发前，这两种种子库类型能分别为天然更新提供366.1粒/m2和302粒/m2的有效种子。从这点来看，林下地被物上的种子库能够为天然更新萌发阶段提供数量可观的物质基础。 3、种子的萌发和幼苗的定居是天然更新过程中种子库向幼苗库转化的关键环节。总的说来，米亚罗人工林区60a云杉人工林种子向幼苗的转化率十分低下，凋落物、苔藓、草本、裸地四种主要地被物以及天然林内种子/幼苗的转化率分别仅为2.22%、2.14%、0.57%、0.67%、1.05%。这种低的转化率成为云杉林天然更新的限制性因子。但在现有更新条件下，微生境对这一环节仍然显示出十分显著的影响，表现为凋落物和苔藓对现有更新的新幼苗的保存率高于其它类型及天然林。苔藓和凋落物在种子萌发，幼苗保存，以及幼苗分布上都要优于其它地被物类型；另外，微地形对天然更新过程的影响也很显著，凹立地上更适宜于种子的汇集、萌发和定居。 Subalpine coniferous forests dominate most parts of the forested areas in western Sichuan, and they are important ecological barriers in the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. Picea asperata is one of the keystone spruce species for re-afforestation after felling of the natural forests and there have been a total of ca. 13 000 ha of plantations dominate by this species established. Nowadays, many P. asperata plantations have reached reproductive maturity. However, continued regeneration becomes to an important problem in these plantations. Understanding their self-regeneration potential and the regeneration characteristics of seed populations in spruce plantations of these plantations can have some insights on the management of these plantations and the establishment of following forest resources. A subalpine 60a P. asperata plantation distributed in Miyaluo artificial forest area was studied in this paper, at the same time. Synchronously, a 150a natural spruce forest was studied as comparison. Using seed collecting traps, sieving method for soil seed bank, seed germination experiments and seedling investigations in the field, the effects of heterogeneous microsites on early natural regeneration processes after seed rain were studied, which included seed banks, seed germination, seedling establishment and distribution. The main results are as follows. 1. Through a 6-year long term investigation of seed rain intensities, characteristic, dispersal dynamics of 60a P. asperata plantation, we could concluded that the seed setting properties of 60a P. asperata plantation have a great variation for the characteristics trees. In the mast seed year of 2002 and 2006, the seed rain intensities of plantation was 1088.2 ± 52.3 seeds/m2 and 704.3 ± 48.9 seeds/m2 respectively, which were much greater than that of natural spruce forest (579.9 ± 28.9 seeds/m2 in 2002, and 507.5± 30.7 seeds/m2 in 2006). Furthermore, the quality of seed rain in P. asperata plantation was better than that of natural spruce forest. Contrasting with natural spruce forest, 60a P. asperata plantation has a greater potential on natural regeneration of P. asperata population and succession of community for the reason of greater seed rain intensities and better seed quality. We can confirm that seed source was not a limiting factor which influences the natural regeneration progress of P. asperata population distributed in subalpine mountain zone, at least in the mast seed year. 2. Contrasting with natural spruce forest, P. asperata population had more viable seeds in seed bank before the germination. Although the difference of seed rain intensities of two forests has effect on this phenomenon, the difference of seed conservation ability in two forests was the main factor. In the P. asperata plantation, the seed densities and seed vertical distribution pattern were significant effected by the microsites, which posed by different ground cover types. In other word, Microsite with ground covers can obstruct most seeds and keep them in ground cover layer from seed rain, and these ground covers would be the main site for seed occurrence. There was a significant difference about seeds conservation ability among these ground covers. Litter and moss could better conserve P. asperata seeds which distributed in this two covers. Seed banks exist in litter and moss ground cover types could respectively provide 302seed/m2 and 366.1seed/m2 for natural regeneration before the seed germination. From this point of view, we could conclude that ground covers can ensure considerable numbers of seeds for the germination process. 3. Seed germination and seed establishment are key steps that the seeds invert to seedlings in natural generation process. In sum, the seed/seeding transform rate in 60a P. asperata plantation distributed in Miyaluo artificial forest area is very low. the seed/seeding transform rates in litter, moss, herb, soil surface and natural spruce forest were 2.22%、2.14%、0.57%、0.67%、1.05%, respectively. The low transform rate become to a limiting factor of P. asperata natural regeneration process. However, under the existing conditions of natural regeneration, microsit still had significant effect on this transform. The states of Seed germination, new seedling conservation, and older seedling distribution in litter and moss were better than in any other ground cover type or natural spruce forest. In addition, the micro-relief has significant effect on natural regeneration process. Concave site was more suitable for seed collection, seed germination and seedling distribution.
