  • In order to explore the allelopathy of grape root exudates,tissue cultured plantlets of Red Globe(Vitis vinifera L.)in laboratory and cutting seedlings of Beta(V. riparia × V. labrusca)by pot experiment were used to examine the effects of grape exudates on plant growth. Laboratory tests showed 0.01,0.10,0.50 g · mL-1(root dry weight/root exudates volume)grape root exudates significantly inhibited growth of grape plantlets,the inhibition being stronger at higher root exudate concentrations. Pot experiment indicated that low-concentration root exudates promoted plant growth,and increased soluble sugar content,starch content and protein content of leaves. The difference of PAL and SOD activities betweenthe treatments and the control were not significant,and MDA content decreased under low concentration. High-concentration root exudates inhibited plant growth significantly,and PAL and SOD activity were higher than the control by 69.16% and 10.35% respectively,and MDA content increased. p-Hydroxybenzoic acid and salicylic acid were determined by LC-MS in grape root exudates,which had significant allelopathy effect on tissue culture plantlets. Other compounds in root exudates of grape were inferred as palmitic acid,1-heneicosanol,citric acid,aconitic acid,β-sitosterol,phthalic acid and gallic acid.

  • Abstract ( 2123 ) HTML ( 3007 ) PDF (860KB) ( 3007 )    
  • Here we present a study of bioinformatics identification of microRNA precursors in fruit crops by blasting ESTs of 32 fruit crops in NCBI using bioinformatics-based gene search and homology search method to look for miRNAs in fruit crops. A total of 110 miRNA precursors,encoding 116 unique miRNA sequences,were identified in these fruit crops. Further analysis through the miRbase database showed the 116 miRNAs belonged to 45 miRNA families,of which 7 were predicted with miRNA number more than 5,20 between 2–4,and the other 18 with only 1 miRNA. miRNAs were identified in Citrus,apple,bananas,kiwifruit and peach,and the numbers of miRNAs found in them were 28,16,13,11,and 10,respectively. The results of the alignment of 6 miRNA families showed the nucleotide sequences of the miRNAs in same family were variable,and the variation between the nucleotides of same locus could be of transversion and transition.

  • Abstract ( 2048 ) HTML ( 1664 ) PDF (834KB) ( 1664 )    
  • Pear rootstocks bean pear(Pyrus calleryana Dcne.)was used as an experimental materials for cloning phytochelatin synthase gene and researching its expression characterization via rapid amplification of cDNA ends(RACE)and fluorescent quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)methods. PcPCS1 cDNA sequence length is 1 970 bp, which contains an open reading frame that would encode a 54.77 kD protein of 497 amino acids. Two typical phytochelatin subfamily domains constitute PcPCS1 protein, which includes three adjacent Cys-Cys elements(331-332, 351-352 and 369-370 location amino acid)in the C-terminal region and all characteristics sites(Cys-56, Cys-90/91 and Cys-109)of phytochelatin synthase protein. PcPCS1 and other PCS1 proteins from leguminous plants belong to the same branch in PCS1 phylogenetic tree. Moreover, PcPCS1 had the highest homology(84%)with Lotus corniculatus LjPCS1. Fluorescence quantitative RT-PCR results showed that PcPCS1 gene was constitutively expression and its expressions were different in various organs. Furthermore, PcPCS1 transcription level was quickly climbed up after 20 mmol · L-1 CdSO4 treatment 24 hours, which was higher in leaf than in root. It was very significant that three heavy-metal ions had different abilities to up-regulated PcPCS1 expression as the sequence Cd2+ > Zn2+ > Cu2+. It is need to point out that PcPCS1 expression was significantly inhibited by 200 mmol · L-1 L-Buthionine sulfoximine(BSO) which was one of γ-glutamyl cysteine synthetase inhibitors. However, its expression returned to the normal level of single heavy-metal treatment or exceeded it after adding 200 mmol · L-1 L-Glutathionereduced(GSH)to the nutrient solution. In summary, the bean pear phytochelatins synthesis used glutathione as substrate, which was produced through γ-glutamyl cysteine synthetase pathway.

  • Acta Horticulturae Sinica. 2010, 37(6): 891-898.
  • Abstract ( 2125 ) HTML ( 1680 ) PDF (232KB) ( 1680 )    
  • In order to understand the role of abscisic acid(ABA)in sweet cherry fruit maturation, one cDNA(PacNCED1)encoding 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase(NCED)as a key enzyme in ABA biosynthesis was cloned from the sweet cherry fruit,and one cDNA(PacACO1)encoding 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid(ACC)oxidase involved in ethylene biosynthesis was cloned from ethephon treated fruits using RT-PCR and RACE-PCR approach. The amino acid sequences of PacNCED1 and PacACO1 showed high homology to those of other NCEDs and ACOs. The expression patterns of PacNCED1 and PacACO1 were determined using RT-PCR and Real time PCR. The results indicated that the PacNCED1 was expressed continuously during the whole period of sweet cherry fruit development and in different tissues. Expression of PacNCED1 gene increased in the flesh and seeds and reached the maximum before maturation and that in pedicle reached the maximum at full maturity of sweet cherry fruit. PacNCED1 gene was weakly expressed in control leaves and roots,but sharply increased in water stressed leaves. Compared to the control,ABA and ethephon treatments could enhance the expression of PacNCED1in fruit,while the NDGA and IAA treatments had no effect. The expression of PacACO1 during sweet cherry fruit development was not detected,but it could be induced with the ethephon and ABA treatments.

  • Abstract ( 2313 ) HTML ( 1477 ) PDF (206KB) ( 1477 )    
  • A vitrification protocol for cryopreservation of ECSs of banana cultivars was investegated. ECSs of 3 banana cultivars,Baxijiao,Beida Aijiao and Yueyoukang 1,were successfully cryopreserved and the relative survival rates of cells obtained were 89.6%,90.9% and 89.9%,respectively. ECS was successfully re-established using cryopreserved cells of Beida Aijiao. Plants regenerated from cryopreserved ECSs of the 3 cultivars,and the relative regeneration rates obtained were 64.4%,0.9% and 14.0% respectively. The genetic stability in morphology and molecular biology of banana seedlings regenerated from cryopreserved cells through embryogenesis were studied using ‘Baxijiao’. The results showed that there was no distinct difference in morphology between treatment and the control. ISSR molecular marker analysis also demonstrated that there were no different bands between the treatment and the control,which suggested that cryopreserved ECSs of banana were genetic stable.

  • Abstract ( 2137 ) HTML ( 1563 ) PDF (414KB) ( 1563 )    
  • Using the total RNA from the leaves of Malus crabapple‘Royalty’as the template,the full cDNA of ANS(anthocyanidin synthase)gene(1 350 bp)was cloned by reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR)and rapid-amplification of cDNA ends(RACE). The gene was named as McANS,containing an open reading frame(1 074 bp)and encoding a protein of 357 amino acids. Corresponding DNA sequence is 1 268 bp,containing one intron,and all the cleave sites obey with the GT-AG rule. The expression of McANS and the content of anthocyanins and flavonoids was determined by real-time quantitative PCR and spectrophotometer respectively in the mature and young leaves of M.‘Flame’(green young and mature leaf),M.‘Radiant’(red young leaf and green mature leaf),M.‘Royalty’(purple young and mature leaf). The results showed that McANS was expressed in both mature leaves and young leaves of the above three cultivars,and the expression level of McANS in young leaves is higher than in mature leaves,23.82-fold difference in M. ‘Radiant’. The trends of anthocyanins content had significant consistency with that of the relative expression of McANS gene. But flavonoids content had not relevance with relative expression of McANS gene. It’s description that McANS have very close relationship with the metabolism of anthocyanins and color of leaf.

  • The Metabolism of Phenolics and Reactive Oxygen Species in Relation to the Explant Browning Differences Among the Varieties of Phalaenopsis During the Tissue Culture
  • ZHAO Ying;YANG Shu-hua;GE Wei-ya;LI Qiu-xiang;CHEN Hong-xia;and GE Hong;
  • Acta Horticulturae Sinica. 2010, 37(6): 963-970.
  • Abstract ( 2406 ) HTML ( 1492 ) PDF (156KB) ( 1492 )    
  • The parameters of phenolic and reactive oxygen metabolism were measured in three varieties of Phalaenopsis,i.e. B3,15 and F5 to study the physiological mechanisms of explant browning as well as genotype differences. The total phenol contents of the three varieties were positively correlated with their PAL and POD activities. B3 with the lowest phenol content showed the highest browning degree,PPO activity and MDA content. F5 with highest phenol content had the lowest browning degree,as well as the lowest PPO activity and MDA content. Moreover,SOD and APX activities in F5 were the highest among the three varieties. These results suggested that the browning degree was not directly related to the total phenol content and that explant browning may be due to the phenol oxidation which catalyzed by PPO. Meanwhile,explant browning reflected the membrane damage caused by lipid peroxidationduring the tissue culture of Phalaenopsis. The differences in the activities of PPO,SOD and APX possibly might be the main aspects that caused the genotype differences in tissue browning.

  • To provide the physiological basis for apple in middle Guizhou Province, the photosynthetic characteristics, main factors impacting photosynthetic rate(Pn),as well as their effects on fruit yield and quality were elucidated in the present work. The results showed that‘Red Fuji’(14.87 μmol · m-2 · s-1) demonstrated a superior photosynthetic ability to‘Royal Gala’(13.57 μmol · m-2 · s-1). They exhibited diurnal fluctuations of Pn with two peaks in the summer, and an obvious midday depression was observed in both cultivars, which was primarily ascribed to the excessive photosynthetically active radiation(PAR)and reduced stomatal conductance(Gs). Photosynthesis was most predominantly affected by PAR, followed by the leaf temperature(Tl),and were slightly influenced by relative humidity(RH) and air CO2(Ca). The yields of two cultivars were highly correlated to PAR and Pn. The quality parameters,including fruit weight,soluble sugar content, and sugar acid ratio,were positively correlated with PAR and Pn,with the exception of vitamin C content. Based on the photosynthetic features, some technical measures on apple cultivation in the middle of Guizhou were put forward to promote light use efficiency.

Difference in sugar accumulation between red flesh and white flesh fruit of loquat relate to sugar metabolism.Sugar content, activities of sucrose and sorbitol metabolizing enzymes were measured in developing fruit of white flesh loquat cultivar ‘Ninghaibai’ and red flesh cultivar ‘Dahongpao’. The results showed that sugar accumulation pattern in developing fruit of two cultivars were almost same. The sucrose contents were almost stable during fruit development, while sorbitol content decreased with fruit development. Fructose and glucose were the major sugars in fruits of these two loquat cultivars, about 90% of glucose and fructose was accumulated within three weeks during maturation. The activities of invertase, sucrose synthase(SS)-cleavage and sorbitol dehydrogenase(SDH)showed the same change pattern that decreased at the early stages of fruit development, then increased at the later stages of fruit maturation. The changes in activities of SS-synthetic direction and sucrose phosphate synthase(SPS)showed some

  • After yam flesh were exposed to hot water extraction and then purified by DEAE-52 and SephadexG-75 columns,two pieces of glycoproteins in Chinese yam were obtained,i.e. CYG-1 and CYG-2. The antioxidant activities in vitro of the two glycoproteins were investigated. The results showed that the two glycoproteins had scavenging activities against hydroxyle radical(·OH),hydrogen peroxide (H2O2),superoxide anion radical()and 1,1-diphenyl-2-picryl-hydrazyl(DPPH)as well as inhibiting capacity of lipidsome peroxidation. There were positive relations between CYGs concentrations and their antioxidant activities. There were some differences on antioxidant activities between CYG-1 and CYG-2. Generally,CYG-2 exhibited better effects than CYG-1.
