Chromosomal Assignment of Three Enzyme Coding Loci (Icd1, Nad-Mdh1 and Aco1) Using Primary Trisomics in Beet (Beta vulgaris L.)     

W. Lange    M. Oleo    Th. S. M. De  Bock  M. D''Haeseleer  M. Jacobs 《Plant Breeding》1993,111(3):177-184

Resistance to Septoria nodorum was investigated in seedlings of an amphiploid generated from Triticum dicoccum Shübl. and Aegilops squarrosa Tausch, and in a series of substitution lines of single chromosomes from this synthetic hexaploid into Triticum aestivum cv. ‘Chinese Spring’ in three tests to determine the chromosomal location of resistance. From the Ae. squarrosa parent (D genome), chromosome 5D was found to confer a high level of resistance, reducing lesion cover to near that of the amphiploid in the three tests. Chromosomes 3D, and to a lesser extent, 7D were also found to confer significant resistance to the amphiploid. Three chromosomes, 2A, 3B and 5A, from the T. dicoccum parent (AB genomes) also conferred resistance but to a lesser extent than 7D. Two chromosomes, 2B and 2D, caused a significant decrease in resistance. ‘Chinese Spring’ may thus carry genes for resistance to S. nodorum on these chromosomes which are absent in the synthetic hexaploid.  相似文献   

The production of aneudihaploids in Solanum tuberosum L. group Tuberosum (the common potato)     

M. Wagenvoort  W. Lange 《Euphytica》1975,24(3):731-741

Summary Trisomic cytotypes were produced in dihaploid (diploid) plants of Solanum tuberosum L. Group Tuberosum, the common potato, according to two methods. Firstly, the aberrant types were selected, through chromosome counting, from parthenogenic dihaploid offspring of tetraploid-diploid crosses. In dihaploid populations from twelve tetraploid potato varieties the frequencies of aneuploids ranged from 3.5 to 11.0%. About 95% of these aneuploids had only one, and the others not more than two extra chromosomes. Secondly, the aneuploids were produced from triploid-diploid crosses. Seedset strongly depended on the crossability of the parental plant material, and the best results were obtained when the motherplants were grafted onto tomato. On avarage the three most successful cross combinations resulted in approximately 0.7 berries per pollination and 6 seeds per berry. With regard to seedsize the seed could be divided in two groups, viz, normal and small seeds. Half of the seed did not germinate or produced inviable seedlings, especially among the small seed group. About 93% of the plants was neuploid, with 25, 26 and 27 being the predominant chromosome number. It was concluded that the production of trisomics was the most successful through triploid-diploid crosses. The results were discussed with reference to the chromosomal behaviour in the meiosis in triploid plants (Lange & Wagenvoort, 1973a). It thus was possible to relate the low seedset to the distribution of chromosomes in the meiotic anaphases. On the one side this distribution resulted in a limitation of the avalability of gametes with monohaploid and near-monohaploid chromosome numbers, while on the other side the macrospores with higher chromosome numbers seemed to be inviable. Finally a crossing scheme was presented for transmitting the trisomic condition into a genetic background with better homogeneity and more homozygosity.Extended version of a lecture presented at a Eucapia meeting about Potato Dihaploids, held at Wageningen (Netherlands).

The Diploidised Meiosis of Tetraploid Beta macrocarpa and its Possible Application in Breeding Sugar Beet     

W. Lange  Th. S. M.  de Bock 《Plant Breeding》1989,103(3):196-206

Accessions of Beta macrocarpa Guss., collected on the Canary Islands, were tetraploid (2n = 36). Three of these accessions were studied in detail. The plants were rather uniform in their morphological appearance, both within and between accessions, and were annual and fully self-compatible. Meiosis was completely diploidised, suggesting an alloploid nature of the tetraploid species. Crosses with diploid B. vulgaris yielded triploid hybrids which were sterile or nearly so; a few descendants of such hybrids were highly aneuploid. Crosses between tetraploid B. macrocarpa and autotetraploid cytotypes of B. vulgaris showed variable results, only part of these crosses yielded tetraploid hybrids. The tetraploid hybrids exhibited somewhat higher fertility than the triploids. An F₂ generation showed partial hybrid dwarfness, partial fertility and segregation for carliness and coloration of the hypocotyl. All hybrids had multivalents at meiosis (averages: 2.5—5.4 multivalents per pollen mother cell), indicating suppression of the diploidised meiosis. The possibilities of application of the diploidised meiosis in breeding sugar beet are discussed.  相似文献   

The production and behaviour of hexaploid hybrids between Hordeum vulgare and H. Bulbosum     

W. Lange  G. Jochemsen 《Euphytica》1976,25(1):621-631

Summary To produce hexaploid (or other polyploid) hybrids, diploid or tetraploid Hordeum vulgare was crossed with hexaploid or octoploid H. bulbosum, and perennial triploid hybrids between the two species were treated with colchicine. The crosses did not yield viable plants: seedset was low, the seed aborted and embryo culture was unsuccessful. The colchicine treatments geve rise to plants in which hexaploid chromosome numbers were observed. At the hexaploid level chromosomal instability occurred, resulting in chromosome elimination.The colchicine-treated triploid hybrids showed in the first years after the treatment better fertility after open flowering than untreated plants, but the level of fertility remained very low. The offspring consisted of haploid, diploid and approximately triploid plants like H. vulgare, tetraploid and approximately tetraploid plants like H. bulbosum, and plants with hybrid morphology and unstable chromosome number, which were highly sterile. Thus the crossing barrier between H. vulgare and H. bulbosum could not be broken down at higher ploidy level.  相似文献   

Utility of Metabolomics toward Assessing the Metabolic Basis of Quality Traits in Apple Fruit with an Emphasis on Antioxidants     

D Cuthbertson  PK Andrews  JP Reganold  NM Davies  BM Lange 《Journal of agricultural and food chemistry》2012,60(35):8552-8560

A gas chromatography-mass spectrometry approach was employed to evaluate the use of metabolite patterns to differentiate fruit from six commercially grown apple cultivars harvested in 2008. Principal component analysis (PCA) of apple fruit peel and flesh data indicated that individual cultivar replicates clustered together and were separated from all other cultivar samples. An independent metabolomics investigation with fruit harvested in 2003 confirmed the separate clustering of fruit from different cultivars. Further evidence for cultivar separation was obtained using a hierarchical clustering analysis. An evaluation of PCA component loadings revealed specific metabolite classes that contributed the most to each principal component, whereas a correlation analysis demonstrated that specific metabolites correlate directly with quality traits such as antioxidant activity, total phenolics, and total anthocyanins, which are important parameters in the selection of breeding germplasm. These data sets lay the foundation for elucidating the metabolic basis of commercially important fruit quality traits.  相似文献   

East Pacific Rise Near 13{degrees}N: Geology of New Hydrothermal Fields

Abundant massive sulfide deposits are present at the crest of the East Pacific Rise near 13 degrees North, where the opening rate is about 12 centimeters per year. Large manganese and helium-3 anomalies in seawater samples, evidence of intense present-day activity of hydrothermal springs, indicate that sulfides are still being produced along this segment of the rise. Massive sulfides also occur on adjacent off-axis seamounts.  相似文献   

Recognition dynamics up to microseconds revealed from an RDC-derived ubiquitin ensemble in solution     

Lange OF  Lakomek NA  Farès C  Schröder GF  Walter KF  Becker S  Meiler J  Grubmüller H  Griesinger C  de Groot BL 《Science (New York, N.Y.)》2008,320(5882):1471-1475

Protein dynamics are essential for protein function, and yet it has been challenging to access the underlying atomic motions in solution on nanosecond-to-microsecond time scales. We present a structural ensemble of ubiquitin, refined against residual dipolar couplings (RDCs), comprising solution dynamics up to microseconds. The ensemble covers the complete structural heterogeneity observed in 46 ubiquitin crystal structures, most of which are complexes with other proteins. Conformational selection, rather than induced-fit motion, thus suffices to explain the molecular recognition dynamics of ubiquitin. Marked correlations are seen between the flexibility of the ensemble and contacts formed in ubiquitin complexes. A large part of the solution dynamics is concentrated in one concerted mode, which accounts for most of ubiquitin's molecular recognition heterogeneity and ensures a low entropic complex formation cost.  相似文献   

Mineral nutrition and water use patterns of a maize/cowpea intercrop on a highly acidic soil of the tropic semiarid     

Inácio de Barros  Thomas Gaiser  Frank-Michael Lange  Volker Römheld 《Field Crops Research》2007

Due to global warming, water is expected to become scarce especially in semiarid regions. Therefore, there is a need to increase the efficiency in water use by crops under rainfed agriculture. The effect of nutrient availability on the growth, production, root development, water relations and water use efficiency (WUE) by the intercrop maize/cowpea was investigated in 2 contrasting years (dry and wet) in the semiarid region of Brazil. The crops were grown on a strongly acidic, sandy soil with three treatments: (i) application of NPK fertilizers plus lime (NPK + lime), (ii) application of NPK fertilizers (NPK) and (ii) control (Contr.) in low and high input regimes. The soil water balance was calculated with the crop model EPICSEAR. Application of fertilizers and lime increased biomass production and grain yield of the intercrop up to 400% and 550%, respectively, and maize suffered more from the effects of low nutrient availability and soil acidity than cowpea. The root development of both crops was strongly improved by the application of NPK and lime and cowpea developed a deeper root system which enabled this crop to keep a higher transpiration rate in the dry year. As a consequence of the shallow root system, maize was prone to water stresses caused by the dry spells and its harvest index was reduced when dry spells occurred during flowering and grain filling.  相似文献
