  • Abstract ( 2247 ) HTML ( 1339 ) PDF (560KB) ( 1339 )    
  • 'Hanfu' Apple cultivar(Malus×domestica) and its parents were used in this research to study its self-compatibility and identify their S-genotypes. The pollination test in the field showed that the 'Hanfu' is self-compatible, and its female parent 'Dongguang' is also self-compatible, but its male parent 'Fuji' is self-sterile as known. The S-genotype of 'Hanfu' was identified as S1S9 by the PCR-based method. Also, the S-genotypes of all 'Dongguang' cultivars which are homonym were identified except the 'Toko' which came from Japanese and was named as 'Dongguang' in Chinese. The results showed the S-genotype of 'Dongguang' from Liaoning Research Institute of Pomology is S2S19, showing no relationship with 'Hanfu', and the S-Genotypes of 'Dongguang' cultivars from Shenyang Agricultural University, and Jilin Research Institute of Pomology contain S9 allele, suggesting they are probably the female parent of 'Hanfu'.

  • Abstract ( 2283 ) HTML ( 1698 ) PDF (370KB) ( 1698 )    
  • Leaves of 'Old Home' Pear (Pyrus communis L.) in vitro were selected as explants. GUS (β-glucuronidase) reporter gene (uidA) under the control of the Arabidopsis sucrose-H+ symporter gene (AtSUC2) promoter which is phloem-specific was introduced into 'Old Home' by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Optimal conditions were established for efficient transformation from leaf explants of a pear cultivar, 'Old Home'. High transformation efficiency was achieved by an improved induction stage following initial Agrobacterium infection. In the induction stage, Agrobacterium cells and parent leaf explants were co-cultivated on a liquid induction medium, which yielded a five-fold increase of transformation frequency over conventional co-cultivation on a solid medium. The integration was checked by PCR and Southern hybridization. The expression of uidA gene was analyzed by GUS histochemical detection and Western blot analysis.

  • It is important to obtain sequence information on retrotransposons for detecting their behavior in the host genome and for studing the phylogenetic relationship in many crops. Thirty-one RNaseH-long terminal repeat (LTR) sections of the Ty1-copia like retrotransposon clones were isolated from oriental persimmon (Diospyros kaki Thunb. 'Luotian-tianshi') successfully, and IRAP analysis were performed in order to illustrate retrotransposon groups corresponding to several sequences transcriptional activity and distribution in oriental persimmon genome. Both sequence multiple alignment and the phylogenetic analysis indicated that at least ten subgroups were amplified, and high sequence heterogeneity that was due to nucleotide replacement, insertion or deletion and amino acid replacement, stop codon and frameshift mutations in translated putative amino acid sequences were found among the different subgroups. But some clones showed high similarity within the same subgroup, it may exhibit the mutual benefit relationship between the host genome and retrotransposons. The IRAP analysis suggested that retrotransposon are ubiquitous, generally dispersed, high copy and high transcriptional activity in Diospyros spp., and their multiple insertion patterns indicated that the potential of these RNaseH-LTR sequences for developing novel retrotransposon molecular markers.

  • Acta Horticulturae Sinica. 2008, 35(4): 509-514.
  • Abstract ( 2474 ) HTML ( 2050 ) PDF (480KB) ( 2050 )    
  • Postharvest Shatangju (Citrus Reticulata Blanco CV. Shiyueju) fruit are susceptible to chilling injury, which results in quality reduction of pulp. However, the mechanism of quality reduction has not been well understood yet. Shatangju fruit were stored at 1℃, 3℃, 6℃ and 9℃.The storage effect, pulp quality and physiological responses were compared to each other. The results indicated that chilling injury symptom occurred in the fruit stored at 1℃ or 3 ℃,and 6℃ was the optimum temperature for storage. Chilling injury not only reduced the appearance quality of the fruit, but also resulted in accumulation of aldehyde and ethanol, and led to unpleasant favor and quality reduction in pulp. Compared with the fruit stored at 6℃, the respiratory rate, ethylene production, the content of malondialdehyde (MDA), the activities of pyruvat decarboxylase (PDC) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) increased dramatically in the fruit stored at 1℃. It was suggested that, during chilling temperature storage, the quality reduction of pulp is due to the accumulation of aldehyde and ethanol, and the increase of respiratory rate may be due to the increase of PDC and ADH activities.

  • Abstract ( 2054 ) HTML ( 1475 ) PDF (275KB) ( 1475 )    
  • Genetic analysis of five fruit traits had been done based on a doubled haploid population of Capsicum annuum L.,obtained through anther culture from a cross between line '97403' and line '97410' and consisted of 103 lines. It was shown that the five fruit traits, i.e. transverse diameter of fruit,thickness of flesh,index of fruit shape,mass per fruit,vertical diameter of fruit,had the heritability of 82.3%,80.8%,80.5%,75.7%,70.9% respectively,while the least number of genes controlling those characteristics was 20.6,8.4,6.1,33.9,10.0 respectively. Based upon estimated coefficients of skewness (g1) and kurtosis (g2) of those traits,complementary gene interaction,it was shown that between the two traits such as mass per fruit and transverse diameter of fruit,and it was possible that the genes controlling the trait of thickness of flesh had the complementary interaction too. However,the gene interaction was found absent in the two traits of vertical diameter of fruit and index of fruit shape.

  • Changes of carbohydrate contents, sucrose-metabolizing enzymes activities and chloroplast ultrastructure in tomato(Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.)leaves that were treated by 30 ℃ and 35 ℃ were studied to investigate the effects of high temperature on carbohydrate metabolism of tomato. Plants were treated by 30 ℃ and 35 ℃ in daytime after the 1st inflorescence effloresced, and plants that under 25 ℃ were considered as control. Results showed that the chloroplast ultrastructure in high temperature treated plants leaves changed and the number of starch grain in chloroplast decreased firstly then increased obviously after plants had been treated for 15 days, especially those plants that were treated by 35 ℃. Fructose content, glucose content and sucrose content in treated leaves all decreased compared to control. The higher the temperature in daytime was, the bigger differences between treatments and control were. The activities of acid invertase (AI) and neutral invertase (NI) in treated leaves decreased, but the activities of sucrose synthase (SS) and sucrose phosphate synthase (SPS) increased when plants were treated by high temperature for 15 days. It was maybe the changes of chloroplast ultrastructure,carbohydrate accumulation and metabolism in leaves that made the disadvantage effects on growth and development, yield and quality of tomato. The higher the temperature was, the worse effects they made.

  • The β-carotene hydroxylase-1(HYD-1), flavonone-3-hydroxylase(F3H) and flavonol synthase(FLS)are key enzymes in biosynthesis of flavonoid and carotenoid. The transcript levels of genes of these three key enzymes were investigated by semi-quantitative RT-PCR under drought (withholding watering for 0, 7, 10, 12, 14 days respectively) in drought tolerance genotype of diploid H145 and drought susceptive genotype of diploid H214. The results showed that the gene transcript of these three key enzymes was increased in leaves and roots of two genotypes under mild and moderate drought. In the genotype of H145, the transcript level of F3H gene in leaves increased faster than that in roots, and the duration of transcript of FLS & HYD-1 gene in leaves was longer than that in roots under drought stress. In genotype of H214, the duration of transcript of F3H gene in leaves was longer than that in the roots, the transcript level of FLS & HYD-1 gene in leaves increased slower than that in roots under drought stress. The results suggest that the genes of β-carotene hydroxylase-1, flavonone-3-hydroxylase and flavonol synthase were concerned with the drought tolerance in potato, and there might be different acting models of these genes under drought in different genotypes.

  • The purpose of this paper is to clarify the photosynthetic characteristics of purple cabbage, and the differences compared with cabbage. The pigment contents and photosynthetic characteristics of purple cabbage varieties 'Zaohong' and 'Hongri' were investigated by Unispec spectrometer and Ciras-2 photosystems respectively, and compared with a common cabbage variety 'Zhonggan 11'. The result showed that the two varieties of purple cabbage differ less in pigment content and photosynthetic rate (Pn), their chlorophyll content were higher, the Pn were lower than those of 'Zhonggan 11'. There were more proportion of anthocyanin in purple cabbage, but no in cabbage. The Pn of purple cabbage was highest in initial heading stage, and decreased by a less margin in last stage compared with that of cabbage. The chlorophyll content was highest in middle heading stage, but the anthocyanin content increased as growing period getting along. The daily Pn varied in a single peak curve. The light compensation point and light saturation point of 'Zaohong' was 68.5 μmo1·m-2·s-1, and 1,077.5 μmo1·m-2·s-1 respectively, the CO2 compensation point and saturation point was 70.4 μmo1·mol-1 and 1,140 μmo1·mol-1, which higher than those of 'Zhonggan 11'. The Pn of 'Zaohong' was highest in 20 ℃, the compensation point was -4.4 ℃ at low temperature and 51.3 ℃ at high temperature, which lower than those of 'Zhonggan 11'.

  • Abstract ( 2752 ) HTML ( 3407 ) PDF (440KB) ( 3407 )    
  • Effects of gibberellic acid (GA3) and chilling treatments on releasing epicotyle and radicle dormancy and promoting seedling growth were studied in Paeonia ostii 'Feng Dan' to improve the protocol of seedling reproduction. Results showed that GA3 treatments with lower concentration (100~200 mg﹒L-1)enhanced the quality of rooting. In a certain range, extending the duration of chilling promoted epicotyle dormancy release and seedling growth and a proper concentration GA3 promoted seedling growth and total biomass accumulation, but, when the chilling days were long enough to releasing epicotyle dormancy, a higher concentration of GA3 was not beneficial to the growth. Comprehensive analysis on the effects of various treatments on shoot germination rate, germination index, seedling height, the first leaf width, leaf number, shoot length, shoot and root dry mass within 100 days after seeds were treated suggested that 21 and 28 days chilling combined respectively with 100 mg﹒L-1 or 200 mg﹒L-1 GA3 were beneficial to both seed germination and seedling growth, which could be extended into the seedling production of 'Feng Dan'.

  • Abstract ( 2785 ) HTML ( 2023 ) PDF (404KB) ( 2023 )    
  • The relative electric conductivity(REC) was determined in the leaf of emergent rhizomes of chrysanthemum during the natural drop in temperature from autumn to winter. The logistic equation was constructed based on the relationship between REC and temperature, then the semi-lethal temperature was determined. The cold tolerance of 8 cultivars was evaluated by LT50. The validity of LT50 in evaluating the cold tolerance of chrysanthemum was proved by recovery of emergent rhizome test. The results showed that the LT50 temperature decreased with the drop in temperature, the decrease of LT50 is cultivar dependent, the decrease of LT50 varied from 4.0℃ to 9.4℃.The cold tolerance of 8 cultivars decreased in the order of 'Jinling Huanghe' ,'Yinxing' ,'Aoyun Wanxia' ,'Jinling Zhiguang' , 'Aoyun Jinyun' , '03(6)-16', '03(6)-12' and 'Aoyun Huoju'. No significant correlation between cold tolerance and florescence was observed. Emergent rhizomes recovering test is overall in consistence with the result of the freezing test indicating that LT50 temperature was a credible indicator to evaluate the cold tolerance of chrysanthemum. No emergent rhizomes recovered when the lethal low temperature was below -14℃.

  • Dendrobium ekapol 'Panda 1' was transformed by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. The sensitivity of Dendrobium to hygromycin and transformation effective factors such as different strains of Agrobacterium、bacterium concentration and acetosyringone (AS) were studied by transient gus expression. The results showed that the transformation efficiency of Dendrobium transformed by E1301 (EHA105 equipped with pCAMBIA1301) was 6 times higher than L1301 (LBA4404 equipped with the same vector). Higher concentration of bacterium was more effective to transform Dendrobium (the transformation efficiency at OD600 1.0 or 1.2 was twice as OD600 0.6 or 0.8). When the concentration of bacterium was 0.8 (OD600), the transformation efficiency was increased with the addition of AS. At other concentrations (OD600 0.6, 1.0 or 1.2), the transformation efficiencies were reduced with AS. Among all the treatments, the concentration of bacterium of OD600 1.0 without AS gave the highest transformation efficiency of 44.4%. Subjected to GUS histochemical staining, PCR and Southern blot analysis, the hygromycin-resistant shoots were proved to be transformed shoots.

  • Abstract ( 2160 ) HTML ( 1920 ) PDF (354KB) ( 1920 )    
  • The effects of DA-6 at different concentration on leaf photosynthesis and fruit quality were studied in strawberry. The results showed that DA-6 of 10 and 20 mg·L-1 could increase leaf photosynthetic rate, stormatal conductance, chlorophyll content, Rubisco activity and soluble protein content compared with control. Moreover, 20 mg·L-1 DA-6 significantly enhanced leaf photosynthetic rate, Rubisco activity and soluble protein content from 7 to 21 days after treatment. However, the results also indicated that 40 mg·L-1 DA-6 had inhibiting effects on leaf photosynthetic rate, chlorophyll content and Rubisco activity and no significant differences found with control during the whole treatment period. On the other hand, DA-6 applied in different concentrations all increased the quality of strawberry and 20 mg·L-1 DA-6 showed the remarkable effect. It is concluded that DA-6 applied at appropriate concentration improved photosynthetic ability and finally increased fruit quality and yield.

  • Abstract ( 2022 ) HTML ( 1404 ) PDF (277KB) ( 1404 )    
  • The resistance to cabbage anthracnose induced by plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria strain NK1 was studied. The results indicated that the number of lesion and its area on the leaves were both significantly reduced compared with the control (P <0.05), the induced effectiveness to cabbage anthracnose reached 64% after strain NK1 treatment. Meanwhile, the induced effectiveness was significantly different by using different methods (P <0.05), that of seed treatment and root irrigation was the best. In addition, the research found that the induced effectiveness was the best under the condition of treating the cabbage seedlings with NK1 before inoculating Colletotrichum higginsianum as early as five days. Compared with the control, chitinase and β-1, 3-glucanase activity of the cabbage leaves and roots significantly increased after NK1 treatment(P <0.05), which suggested that strain NK1 could systemicly induce cabbage to produce resistance to cabbage anthracnose.

Rhododendron chrysanthum tissue culture required different kinds of culture media in different phases. The method of dwarfing with low nutrients and normal temperature was utilized for germplasm peservation in tube at normal temperature.

  • The cryopreservation methods of Rehmannia glutinosa (Gaertn.) Libosch by vitrification and encapsulation-vitrification were studied. The results showed that: it was optimal cryopreservation condition for the two methods in the experimentation when the materials were trained at 4 ℃ low temperature for 5 d, then pre-cultured on the medium with DMSO and Acetamide for 3 d, loaded with 60 % PVS2 for 25 min at room temperature and dehydrated with PVS2 for 30 min at 0 ℃. But compared with the materials cyropreserved by the two methods, the survival rate and regeneration rate by vitrification were both higher than those by encapsulation-vitrification. The survival rate (88.92 %) and the regeneration rate (64.29%) of the former were 1.38 times and 2.41 times higher than the latter, suggesting cryopreservation of Rehmannia glutinosa (Gaertn.) Libosch by vitrification is applicable to the germplasm conservation.
