青藏高原几种典型高山植物的光合特性比较

选用西宁地区人工栽培的高山植物唐古特大黄（Rheum tanguticum）、山莨菪（Anisodus tanguticus）和麻花艽（Gentiana straminea），比较了3种高山植物之间光合作用的光响应和CO2响应特性，叶片光合色素以及UV—B吸收物质的差异；并以低海拔植物菘蓝（Isatis indigotica）为对比，分析了高山植物与低海拔植物的差异。结果表明：与低海拔植物菘蓝相比，3种高山植物光合作用的表观量子效率（AQY）都偏低；唐古特大黄叶片的AQY、羧化效率（CE）和光呼吸速率（Rp）都很低，净光合速率（Pn）的光响应曲线在全日照光辐射范围内并没有达到完全饱和，这与单位面积叶片具有较高的光合色素以及UV—B吸收物质有关；麻花艽植物与唐古特大黄一样，具有较高的UV-B吸收物质和光合色素含量，但其Rp较高，加之Pn受气孔限制较为明显，故其光合作用的饱和光强很低，Pn相对于其它3种植物也较低；山莨菪与低海拔植物菘蓝的光合特性很相似，都具有较高的AQY和CE。这些结果表明，3种高山植物的光合特性有较大差异，但并没有一致的相对于低海拔植物的共性。4种植物Pn的胞间CO2浓度（G）响应曲线在CO2饱和点以后都表现为无机磷（Pi）再生限制，其吃的变化与CO2饱和点以后的最大Pn的变化基本一致。

An arsenic-accumulating, hypertolerant brassica, Isatis capadocica

Isatis capadocica, a brassica collected from Iranian arsenic-contaminated mine spoils and control populations, was examined to determine arsenate tolerance, metabolism and accumulation. I. cappadocica exhibited arsenate hypertolerance in both mine and nonmine populations, actively growing at concentrations of > 1 mm arsenate in hydroponic solution. I. cappadocica had an ability to accumulate high concentrations of arsenic in its shoots, in excess of 100 mg kg(-1) DW, with a shoot : root transfer ratio of > 1. The ability to accumulate arsenic was exhibited in both hydroponics and contaminated soils. Tolerance in this species was not achieved through suppression of high-affinity phosphate/arsenate root transport, in contrast to other monocotyledons and dicotyledons. A high percentage (> 50%) of arsenic in the tissues was phytochelatin complexed; however, it is argued that this is a constitutive, rather than an adaptive, mechanism of tolerance.

菘蓝组织培养及植株再生研究

本实验通过对菘蓝(Tsatis Japanica）的六种外植体进行培养并诱导分化，研究了不同的外植体在相同培养条件下器官分化的不同状况并以分化周期最短、分化频率最高的根外植物为实验材料，通过改变外源激素的配比和浓度，以及其池培养条件的变化来控制外植体定向分化．对培养根段中不定芽的发生途径，做了完整的组织学和扫描电镜观察，并用不定芽做了人工种子的包埋，初步进行j，菘蓝人工种子的研究。
