ABSTRACT

Chilling stress at booting stage can cause floret deterioration and sterility by limiting the supply of food chain and the accumulation of essential mineral elements resulting in reduction of yield and grain quality attributes in rice. Genomic selection of chilling tolerant rice with reference to the accumulation of mineral elements will have great potential to cope with malnutrition and food security in times of climate change. Therefore, a study was conducted to explore the genomic determinants of cold tolerance and mineral elements content in near-isogenic lines (NILs) of japonica rice subjected to chilling stress at flowering stage. Detailed morphological analysis followed by quantitative analysis of 17 mineral elements revealed that the content of phosphorus (P, 3,253 mg/kg) and potassium (K, 2,485 mg/kg) were highest while strontium (Sr, 0.26 mg/kg) and boron (B, 0.34 mg/kg) were lowest among the mineral elements. The correlation analysis revealed extremely positive correlation of phosphorus (P) and copper (Cu) with most of the cold tolerance traits. Among all the effective ear and the second leaf length correlation was significant with half of the mineral elements. As a result of comparative analysis, some QTLs (qBRCC-1, qBRCIC-2, qBRZC-6, qBRCHC-6, qBRMC-6, qBRCIC-6a, qBRCIC-6b, qBRCHC-6, and qBRMC-6) identified for calcium (Ca), zinc (Zn), chromium (Cr) and magnesium (Mg) on chromosome number 1, 2, and 6 while, a novel QTL (qBCPC-1) was identified on chromosome number 1 for P element only. These findings provided bases for the identification of candidate genes involved in mineral accumulation and cold tolerance in rice at booting stage.

ABSTRACT

In order to reveal the main nutrients and functional ingredients in the shoots of Polygonatum cyrtonema, the polysaccharides, proteins, amino acids, and total phenols were determined. The tested samples cultured in Ma'nijiaonong, Hengtang village, Tianmushan town, Lin'an, Zhejiang, which were collected from three provenances(Pan'an and Longquan in Zhejiang and Qingyang in Anhui). The results showed that the polysaccharide content of the shoots varied from 2.34% to 12.73%, roughly one-third of rhizomes. The protein content varied from 107.75 to 192.49 mg·g~(-1), nearly 5.50 times more than rhizomes. Moreover, the average of total amino acid content was 193.13-248.74 mg·g~(-1), approximately 4.16 times of rhizomes. And the essential amino acids account for 35.57%-39.44% of the total amino acids content, which was close to the standard of the ideal protein proposed by FAO/WHO(the essential amino acid/total amino acid is about 40%). In addition, the taste amino acids(TaAA) changed from 160.12 to 208.29 mg·g~(-1), revealing the material basis of "shoots were extremely delicious" in Chinese ancient herbal medicine. Additionally, the total phenols varied from 51.21-58.76 mg·g~(-1), about 2.96 times of rhizomes. The DPPH free radical scavenging rate of tested shoots was over 95%, which obviously superior to rhizomes. Therefore, the shoots of P. cyrtonema is a very high-quality vegetable and functional food with good development potential. Furthermore, the main nutrients and functional substances in P. cyrtonema shoots are closely related to the provenances and harvesting seasons. It is important to improve the quality and yield of the shoots by strengthening the variety of breeding and cultivation techniques.

ABSTRACT

Systematic reverse-engineering of functional genome architecture requires precise modifications of gene sequences and transcription levels. The development and application of transcription activator-like effectors(TALEs) has created a wealth of genome engineering possibilities. TALEs are a class of naturally occurring DNA-binding proteins found in the plant pathogen Xanthomonas species. The DNA-binding domain of each TALE typically consists of tandem 34-amino acid repeat modules rearranged according to a simple cipher to target new DNA sequences. Customized TALEs can be used for a wide variety of genome engineering applications, including transcriptional modulation and genome editing. Such "genome engineering" has now been established in human cells and a number of model organisms, thus opening the door to better understanding gene function in model organisms, improving traits in crop plants and treating human genetic disorders.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE: To compare the effects of the different fertilizing levels on the output, the effective element, the content of heavy-metal, the grade and the ratio of wet to dry of Pinella ternate to obtain the best fertilize ratio on the planting. METHODS: The orthogonal desing method L9 (3(4)) was applied on the comparison between the different fertilization levels. The content of alkaloid was determined by UV spectrophotometer. The content of heavy-metal was determined by atom absorption. RESULTS: The factors that affected the output and the quality of Pinellia ternate were N > P > K. CONCLUSION: The best fertilizer combination is N 25 g/m2 ,P2O5 18 g/m2, K2O9 g/m2 and the application ratio is 2. 8: 2: 1 for them, in which the higher output and the content of alkaloid should be obtained.

ABSTRACT

The selection of suitable inducible-promoters is one of the most important chains in transgenic researches for plant tolerances to drought, dehydration and other abiotic stresses. Based on laboratory researches in the past years, it was set up a set of methods that could be used to rapidly determine the transient expression characteristics of drought- and dehydration-inducible promoters by using whole barley seedling and plant leaves in vitro as bombardment objects. Promoters Dhn4s, Dhn8s, HVA1s, Rab16Bj and wsi18j isolated from barley and rice were able to express GFP in the leaves of barley, wheat, rice, sorghum and fern after drying treatment, but not in laves of mungbean and tomato. The qualitative expression of HVA1s and wsi18j in different organs and tissues of barley was identified. A method for quantitative analysis of promoter transient expression was established by means of GFP foci/GUS foci counting or GUS activity/XYN activity test. Finally, the value and prospect of the methodology were discussed in terms of its application to the analysis of plant promoters inducible by environmental factors.
