  • The method of controlling dissolved oxygen concentration in nutrient solution was used. Effects of hypoxia on biomass of plant and root activity, respiratory rate, the activities of enzymes involved in nitrogen metabolism in the Malus hupehensis Rehd. seedling root system was studied. Results showed that the growth of seedling was inhibited and it was more serious as dissolved oxygen concentration of nutrient solution decreased under hypoxia; The respiratory rate of root system was more inhibited with decreasing dissolved oxygen concentration of nutrient solution first. But the inhibitory effect was decreased over the treatment time. The root activity was increased rapidly and then descended quickly; the activity of nitrate reductase (NR) and glutamine synthethase (GS) was improved under hypoxia. The activity of glutamate dehydrogenase (NADH-GDH) was inhibited first and then was promoted. The hypoxia was reduced probably by improving respiration consumption and changing the metabolic pathway.

  • Self-compatible pear cultivar 'Yan Zhuang' (Pyrus bretschneideri Rehd.) is recorded as bud mutant of self-imcompatible 'Ya Li'. The possible mutation was explored. Self-pollination experiments proves that 'Ya Li' is self-imcompatible (fruit set ratio of flowers 9.1%, no fertile seed) and 'Yan Zhuang' is self-compatible (fruit set ratio of flowers 56.9%, No. of seeds per fruit 8.64). Cross-pollination results suggested that the mutated gene is expressed in stylar of 'Yan Zhuang'. S-RNase gene has been reported as the key gene in style controlling self-incompatible mechanism. PCR with S-RNase gene sequence specific primers showed that the genotype of 'Ya Li' is S21S34, S21 exits in all the 'Yan Zhuang' progenies by self-crossing. It seems that mutation of S21-RNase gene results in the self-compatible phenotype of 'Yan Zhuang'. Western blot result showed that one of the two S-RNase brands in 'Yan Zhuang' disappeared in 'Ya Li'. So 'Yan Zhuang' pear probably results from S-RNase mutation of 'Ya Li'

  • Abstract ( 2712 ) HTML ( 1525 ) PDF (738KB) ( 1525 )    
  • Establishing an efficient regeneration and transformation system is a fundamental role to the transgenic study. For Centennial Seedless, the effects of growth regulators, explants and ablastin to the generation of adventitious shoots were studied, based on which the optimal condition for regeneration and transformation was determined. Our experiments showed that, when being used alone or accompanied with auxins, the cytokinin TDZ is always better than BA and KT in inducing adventitious shoots. The adventitious shoots of Centennial Seedless could be efficiently induced in the media of MS + TDZ 2.0 mg·L-1, MS + TDZ 4.0 mg·L-1 or MS + TDZ 4.0 mg·L-1 + IAA0.1 mg·L-1and adventitious shoot regeneration rates were 37.4%,40.2% and 50.0%, respectively. For fixed medium, adventitious shoots can be generated with minor difference in efficiency from leaf disc, stem and petiole. When this regeneration system was used in genetic transformation mediated by Agrobaterium tumefaciens, the optimal concentration of screening resistance medium was 20 mg·L-1 for kanamycin, and for the control of agrobacterium growth, the best concentration was 400 mg·L-1 for cephaloridine or 300 mg·L-1 for carbencillin . Transformants were obtained 45. PCR and Southern blotting confirmed that foreign gene was integrated genome of grape.

  • Effects of Grape Berry Nutrition on Postharvest Pathogenicity of Botrytis cinerea
  • XU Ling;ZHANG Lu-jun;FENG Lin-yan;and ZHANG Sheng-yu
  • Acta Horticulturae Sinica. 2008, 35(1): 33-38.
  • Abstract ( 2558 ) HTML ( 1449 ) PDF (501KB) ( 1449 )    
  • The postharvest grape berries (Vitis vinifera L. 'Kyoho') were used to investigate effects of the nutrition, pH and physiological condition of grape,and environmental temperature on the conidia development and the hypha growth of Botrytis cinerea. The results indicated that the nutrition and pH value of the grape extract were very suitable for the conidia germination and hypha growth of B.cinerea. Compared with other postharvest pathogens, such as Alternaria alternata, Fusarium sp., Cladosporium sp. and Trichotecium roseum, B.cinerea had significant growth predominance on the grape extract medium. The spores of B. cinerea germinated between 0~35 ℃ when incubated in the medium of grape juice at pH 3.46. The optimal germination temperature of spores was 15~24 ℃ and the germination rate of B. cinerea spores was 8.7% even cultured at 0 ℃ for 48 h. The germination rate at pH 4 was above 90% when cultured at 4 ℃ for 72 h and was higher than at pH 5-7. This suggests that the spore germination of B.cinerea need low pH at low temperature. The invasiveness of B. cinerea enhanced with the extension of storage. B. cinerea reduced the POD and chitinase activity of the host during the infection process. The results suggest that B.cinerea is more compatible with postharvest grape berries than A.alternata.

  • Utilization of organic nitrogen (N) is an important aspect of plant N assimilation and has potential application in sustainable agriculture. A comparative study on plant N uptake using nitrate, ammonium, glycine and CK (N free) was studied in two tomato cultivars (Shenfen 918 and Huying 932). After 8 days of growth with the different N forms, root dry weight followed the series: NO3--N > Gly-N > CK > NH4+-N while root volume followed the series Gly-N > NO3--N > NH4+-N > CK in both cultivars. Root enzyme activities was the highest in the NO3--N or Gly-N treatment followed by NH4+-N treatment with CK showing the lowest activities. The concentration of NO3- and phosphate was highest in the NO3--N treatment followed by Gly-N and NH4+-N with CK showing the lowest concentrations. Ammonium, free amino acid and soluble sugar content of phloem and xylem sap in the Gly-N and NH4+-N treatments were higher in both cultivars followed by NO3--N and CK treatment. Rhizosphere pH was elevated by the NO3--N and Gly-N treatment, but decreased in the NH4+-N treatment. Soluble protein content in root exudates followed the series: NO3--N> Gly-N > NH4+-N > CK; however, different patterns were observed in xylem and phloem sap (Gly-N >NO3--N > NH4+-N > CK). Root enzyme activities were significantly different (P < 0.05) between the two cultivars. Root enzyme activities varied in the two different tomato cultivars with activities being highest in Huying 932 in all four N treatments.

  • Abstract ( 2240 ) HTML ( 1402 ) PDF (723KB) ( 1402 )    
  • An efficient chimera formation method by tissue culture combined with grafting was studied in garlic(Allium sativum L.). Garlic cultivars 'Acheng purple' garlic and Japanese 'Fukuchi' white garlic were used for intervarietal chimera formation. The stem discs were used as stock. The meristem-apexs of these cultivars bulb were used as scions. The Chimeric shoots were examined by RAPD(random amplified polymorphic DNA). The results showed that the optimized medium for shooting was MS + NAA 0.1 mg·L-1+ 2ip 0.4 mg·L-1, and that for rooting was 1/2 MS +IBA 1.5 mg·L-1. Chimeric shoots were obtained by grafted culture method on these media, resulting in 20 % formation. The result of RAPD-PCR using primer OPF-16 indicated that four grafting combination, i.e., white/purple, white·purple/purple, white·purple·/white, and purple/white, produced chimeras. The result of RAPD-PCR using primer OPJ-12 indicated that grafting combination of purple/white produced chimeras. Primer OPE-05 did not give a significant result.

  • Abstract ( 1793 ) HTML ( 1234 ) PDF (1669KB) ( 1234 )    
  • Karyotype was studied via squash method in seventeen chrysanthemum cultivars with small inflorescences which differ in plant architecture and purpose. Karyotypic findings showed that all cultivars were mixoploid with chromosome number ranging from 49 to 57, and 54 was the most frequent number observed. In addition, diversity of chromosome morphology was observed. Metacentric, submetacentric and acrocentric chromosomes coexisted in most cultivars. The ratio of chromosome length, i.e., ratio of the length of the longest chromosome to that of the shortest one, varied from 1.62 to 2.39. The percentage of chromosome with arm ratio beyond 2 was between 11.11% and 29.62%. Asymmetry index (As.K%) ranged from 59.74% to 63.37%. The karyotypes of Dendranthema*grandiflorum 'Aoyunchengguang', 'Jinlingbaifeng'(2n=53) and three ground cover cultivars were characterized as "2B" type, whereas, those of the remaining cultivars were characterized as "2A" type. Karyotype diversity not solely resulted from the mutation of chromosome, recombination of chromosome also likely contributed to the diversity.

  • Abstract ( 1747 ) HTML ( 1028 ) PDF (495KB) ( 1028 )    
  • To investigate the effects of lipoxygenase (LOX-1) on the cormels formation and enlargement in Gladiolus hybridus, with 'Rose Supreme' and 'Advanced Red' as materials, LOX-1 activity, endogenous methyl jasmonate (MJ), sucrose, starch and cellulose contents were examined during the cormels growth. The results showed that LOX-1 activity and endogenous MJ content in 'Rose Supreme' were higher than those in 'Advanced Red', with highest activties and contents in stolons, but not detected in leaves. It suggested that LOX-1 might regulate the development and growth of Gladiolus cormels through affecting the JAs biosynthesis cycles. During the cormels growth, the contents of sucrose, starch and cellulose, with positive correlations with LOX-1 activity, showed different increase in corm and cormels, which also suggested that sucrose, starch and cellulose played important roles in the formation and enlargement of gladiolus corms and cormels.

  • Abstract ( 1892 ) HTML ( 1143 ) PDF (280KB) ( 1143 )    
  • The seedling of Malus hupehensis Rehd var pingyiensis Jiang was used to study the effects of high-temperature on bioluminescence and the changes of ATP content, rate of total respiration and cyanide-resistant respiration. The results indicated that the intensities of ultraweak luminescence (UWL) and fluorescence of leaves all decreased in initial stage of high temperature stress. But with the prolongation of high-temperature stress time both of them were gradually increased and got back to control level at 48h of treatment. While phosphorescence intensity was continuously rose during the period of high temperature stress. Under high temperature stress, the rate of total respiration was decreased, the rate of cyanide-resistant respiration rose, and the production of ATP decreased. This suggested that the bioluminescence has close relation to the pathway of respiration and energy metabolism in Malus hupehensis (Pamp) Rehd. var. pingyiensis Jiang.

  • Dynamic changes of inositol, polysaccharide, and reductive sugar during the fruit development in four pumpkin varieties 'GD-1', 'Abis’(Cucurbita maxima), 'GD-15', and‘Huanglang’ (Cucurbita moschata) were investigated.The results showed that inositol, polysaccharide, and reductive sugar increased and then decreased during the fruit development. Inositol in Cucurbita maxima and Cucurbita moschata reached its peak at the day 45 and 35 after pollination, respectively. Polysaccharide in Cucurbita maxima and Cucurbita moschata reached its peak at the day 55 and 45 after pollination, respectively. Reductive sugar in Cucurbita maxima and Cucurbita moschata reached its peak at the day 25 and 35 after pollination. However, the reductive sugar started to increase at the day 10 after harvesting, and showed a pattern of increase, decrease, and increase. This study also showed variations for inositol, polysaccharide, and reductive sugar among the varieties tested.

  • Gas exchange, chlorophyll fluorescence and activities of anti-oxidant enzymes were investigated to study the responses of photosynthetic characteristics and photoprotective mechanisms to various temperatures (25 ℃, 32 ℃, 38 ℃ and 44 ℃) in 'Leishan 1' and 'Sayaka' of Lilium× formolongo seedlings. In this study, the results showed that the temperatures from 25 ℃ to 38 ℃ led to only slight decrease in photosynthetic rate (Pn), but the 44 ℃ induced a significant reduction in the values of Pn. Along with the decrease in photosynthetic capacity, stomatal conductance (Gs) decreased considerably; during this process, the stomatal limitation value (Ls) decreased gradually and clearly. The measurement of chlorophyll fluorescence showed that the initial fluorescence yield (Fo) was not effected by the raising temperatures, while the maximum fluorescence yield (Fm) and the maximal quantum yield of photosystem II photochemistry (Fv/Fm) went down slightly with temperature increasing in the two lily varieties. The actual efficiency of PSⅡ(ΦPSⅡ) reduced distinctly along with the increase of temperature, while non-photochemical quenching (NPQ) strikingly increased. Moreover, the activities of superoxide dismutase (SOD), ascorbate peroxidase (APX), catalase (CAT) and peroxidases (POD) were enhanced with the temperature increasing. According to our data, we suggest that Lilium × formolongo is able to tolerate mild high temperatures; Non-photochemical quenching and the anti-oxidant enzymes are the main mechanisms in the two lily varieties seedlings, which can effectively protect its photosynthetic apparatus against high temperatures.

  • 22 primer combinations were used for polymorphic selection, 6 of which could generate reproducible polymorphic fragments and were used to detect the polymorphic sites of 22 Osmanthus fragrans cultivars and 3 species of Osmanthus. A total of 171 bands amplified from 6 primer combinations were selected for AFLP analysis, 104 bands appeared to be polymorphic(60.8%).The data were used to calculate the Nei's genetic distance of the 25 materials and to construct a dendrogram based on UPGMA cluster analysis.The result showed that:It had closely relationship between Osmanthus fragrans cultivars with brunet flower as well as Osmanthus fragrans cultivars with blonde flower,but the relationship between the two groups were remote.From the dendrogram,we knew that some Osmanthus fragrans cultivars of Latifolius Group and Fragrans Group had remotely relationship comparing with Thunbergii Group and Aurantiacus Group.AFLP analysis appeared the taxonomic result was not completely consistent with that of traditional analysis.

  • To clearify the effect of heat shock on tissue browning of Phalaenopsis, the post-subculture changes in browning index, total phenolic content and PAL activity in tissues recovered under 25 ℃ for different time after heat shock treatment at 45 ℃ for 10 min were determined and analysed. The results suggested that the browning of cultured Phalaenopsis tissue could be significantly inhibited by heat treatment when the treated tissue was covered for 48 h under 25 ℃.
