Selection and Comprehensive Evaluation of Cassava Cold-resistant Germplasm Resources and Identification Indexes ZHANG Wei,YI Tuo,TANG Wei,SONG Yong 2019, 40 (1):  1-10.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-2561.2019.01.001 Abstract ( 608 )   HTML ( 9 )   PDF (1639KB) ( 459 )   The chilling injury of 18 cassava germplasm resources was classified by natural low temperature in the field. and strong cold-tolerant cultivars (F200), medium-tolerant cultivars (20-4, 52-3), and weak cold- tolerant cultivars (16P, SC8) were selected for low temperature (4 ℃) stress treatment. The seedling leaf relative electric conductivity, the malondialdehyde, soluble sugar, soluble protein, protective enzyme activity and other seven physiological indexes were assayed using the method of principal component analysis (PCA), and the membership function, correlation analysis and stepwise regression method were used to comprehensively assess the cold resistance and screen cold appraisal indicators. Seven single physiological indexes were converted into three independent comprehensive indexes, and it was considered that four physiological indexes including relative electrical conductivity, soluble sugar, malondialdehyde and CAT four physiological indexes could be used as the indexes to accurately and quickly identify the cold resistance of cassava. The evaluation system of cassava cold resistance was initially established, and the results of field and physiological tests were highly consistent. It was found that among the cassava germplasm tested, the most cold-resistant strain was F200 and the least cold-resistant strain was SC8. Figures and Tables | References | Related Articles

Correlation of Microspore Development Period and Flower Morphological Characteristics of Chinese Flowering Cabbage PANG Qiangqiang,LI Deming,ZHOU Man,ZHU Baibi,ZHAO Shuniu,CAI Xinglai 2019, 40 (1):  54-60.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-2561.2019.01.008 Abstract ( 1362 )   HTML ( 11212 )   PDF (639KB) ( 1918 )   The cytological characteristics of microspores in Chinese flowering cabbage at different developmental periods were studied to reveal the relationship between microspore development and buds morphology, which would provide evidences for the culturing of anthers and microspores. The results showed that the microspore developed in tetrad, early- or mid-uninucleate, late-uninucleate and binucleate stages obviously. The microspore development showed correlativity with the morphological characteristics of buds and anthers. The buds 3.05-3.39 mm in height, the calyx 3.25-3.46 mm in length, the petal 2.10-2.33 mm in length, the ratio of flap to calyx 0.63-0.71, the anther 2.57-2.89 mm in length, and the ratio of flap 0.77-0.85 were discovered to contain microspores at the late uninucleate. These were suitable for the identification of optimal sampling period of flower buds in different materials. At the late uninucleate stage, it was necessary that the anthers should be covered by the sepal, the anthers slightly longer than petals, and the flower bud was full, the petals and anthers showed pale yellow. Therefore, we can judge the development stage of Chinese flowering cabbage microspore by morphological characteristics of flower organs so as to define the standard of bud selection in correspondence with the optimal stage of anthers culture.

Differential Effects of Up-regulation of Cell Wall Invertase Activity on Fruit and Seed Development in Tomato XIN Shuli,GUO Desheng,LAI Hanyang,LIU Yonghua 2019, 40 (1):  61-66.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-2561.2019.01.009 Abstract ( 625 )   HTML ( 9 )   PDF (895KB) ( 321 )   The T4 transgenic tomato with elevated CWIN activity was employed to study the effects of CWIN on seed and fruit development. It was found that the elevated CWIN activity resulted in increased fresh weight per fruit, but decreased seed number per fruit, seed germination rate and germinability. These results showed that although the development of fruit was enhanced by the elevated CWIN activity, the development of seed was impaired. Further investigations at physiological level revealed two possible reasons for the above-stated phenomenon: ①The elevation of CWIN activity led to decreased starch content and increased hexose (i.e. glucose and fructose) content, indicating there was enhanced capability of transgenic fruits in utilizing photo-assimilates, which facilitating the development of fruit and the hexose accumulation in fruit, instead of the development of seed. ②The elevation of CWIN activity also resulted in decreased content of chlorophyll in fruits, implying decreased photosynthetic activity of fruit and thus inhibiting seed development due to inadequate supply of photo-assimilates to seed from fruit photosynthesis. Altogether, the elevation of CWIN activity inhibited the development of seed, but promoted that of fruit, which could provide a new pathway to increase the yield and quality of tomato.

The Seed Coat Structure of Protea magnifica and Its Effects on Seed Dormancy SHAN Jinfeng,LIU Zijia,ZENG Ying,CHEN Jun,WU Xiangchong,ZHU Zunling 2019, 40 (1):  67-72.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-2561.2019.01.010 Abstract ( 702 )   HTML ( 6 )   PDF (2430KB) ( 424 )   In order to discuss the seed dormancy characteristics of Protea magnifica, the seed morphology anatomical structure, seed coat ultrastructure and water permeability were observed. The results showed that: ①The seed coat of P. magnifica consisted of three layers, the fence structure of the external seed coat enhancing the impermeability of the seeds, the highly lignified middle seed coat protecting the seeds, the thin inner seed coat covered with a layer of water-impervious wax. ②The acid etching treatment could make the seed coat loose, the seed coat thin, and the seed hole exposed. However, the middle seed coat and inner seed coat etched had already undergone destructive cracking after the 4-hours treatment, which seriously affected the vitality of the embryos. ③The dry seeds and seeds etched for 0.5 h could absorb water quickly in the first 14 h treatment, and nearly saturated after 50 h treatment. Since then, the two water absorption rates fluctuated in a small range until they were fully saturated. ④The seed treated by acid etching did not allow the embryo to absorb water, therefore, the seed coat structure of P. magnifica did not hinder the water absorption of the embryo, but it couldn’t be ruled out the the effect on embryo respiration and the possibility of mechanical resistance to radicle elongation and growth.

Histochemical and Molecular Characterization of Laticifer Cells in Calli Derived from Petioles of Rubber Tree TAN Deguan,PENG Jing,HAN Bingying,FU Lili,SUN Xuepiao,ZHANG Jiaming 2019, 40 (1):  73-78.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-2561.2019.01.011 Abstract ( 877 )   HTML ( 6 )   PDF (1771KB) ( 388 )   The trunk bark of rubber tree (Hevea brasiliensis) is usually used as the material for the study of laticifer differentiation. In this study, we confirmed the presence of laticifer cells in petiole-derived calli by histochemical staining, nile red fluorescence staining, immunohistochemistry and molecular biology. Laticifer cells in petiole-derived calli were distributed randomly, similar to the primary laticifers. They contained less rubber particles in the early developmental stage, and were full of rubber particles in the late developmental stage. The laticifer-specific genes including REF, SRPP, Hevein and CPT were confirmed to be expressed from the petiole-derived callus by RT-PCR, and their transcripts were the same as those reported in the latex of the trunk barks. These results indicated that the laticifer cells in the petiole-derived calli and in barks had similar functions, which would provide a basis for petiole-derived callus as a novel research model to study laticifer differentiation in the rubber tree.

Genome Sequence of Tomato mottle mosaic virus Isolated from Tomato in Hainan, China LIU Xiaoxuan,LI Weilin,ZHANG Tong,ZHOU Guohui 2019, 40 (1):  139-144.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-2561.2019.01.020 Abstract ( 538 )   HTML ( 3 )   PDF (1053KB) ( 375 )   Small RNA deep sequencing and RT-PCR techniques were used to detect the viral pathogen infecting cherry tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) samples collected from Lingshui County, Hainan Province in 2016. Tomato mottle mosaic virus (ToMMV) was identified from the plants showing dwarf, leaf chlorotic and mottle symptoms. The virus was preserved on the Nicotiana benthamiana by mechanical inoculation, and named as tomato mottle mosaic virus Hainan isolate (ToMMV-HN). Then its whole genome sequence was obtained by RT-PCR. It was determined that the complete genome of ToMMV-HN was 6399 nt in length and contained 4 open reading frames. The identity of nucleotide and encoded amino acid of this isolate with other reported 9 ToMMV isolates was 98.0%-100% and 99.2%-100%, respectively. The identity of nucleotide with Tomato mosaic virus (ToMV), Tomato brown rugose fruit virus (TBRFV) and Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) which belonging to the genus Tobamovirus was 84.7%, 80.7% and 79.0%, respectively. Phylogenetic analysis showed that ToMMV-HN shared the closest relationship with pepper isolates from Tibetan and Yunnan, China, followed by tomato isolates from California and South Carolina, USA, and relatively distant from Spanish and Brazilian tomato isolates of this virus. This is the first report of the whole genome sequence of ToMMV isolated from tomato in China, which would provide basic information for the diagnosis and prevention of tomato viral disease in China, especially for disease-resistant variety breeding.

Effect of Different Starch Debranching Enzymes on the Molecular Structure of Jackfruit Seed Starch and Pasting Properties ZHANG Yutong,ZHANG Yanjun,XU Fei,TAN Lehe,LI Shize 2019, 40 (1):  150-157.  doi: 10.3969/j.issn.1000-2561.2019.01.022 Abstract ( 869 )   HTML ( 17 )   PDF (727KB) ( 710 )   Debranched jackfruit seed starch (DS) and debranched jackfruit seed amylopectin (DAP) were prepared by pullulanase or isoamylase, and the differences between the DS and DAP was investigated. The results showed that DS had a broad molecular weight distribution while DAP had a narrow molecular weight distribution. Pullulanase DS and DAP had a lower average molecular weight due to more complete hydrolysis of the α-1,6 glycosidic bonds. Pullulanase hydrolysis was more effective for shorter lateral chains, whereas isoamylase could hydrolyze outer branching linkages of amylopectin. Isoamylase DAP had a higher proportion of B2, B3 chains and the longest average chain length, resulting in a lower peak viscosity, trough viscosity, breakdown, final viscosity and setback, but a higher gelatinization temperature. Therefore, both the selection of starch debranching enzymes and the amylose/amylopectin composition could lead to the significant differences (p<0.05) in the molecular structure and pasting properties. According to the specific needs, the appropriate methods could be used to enhance or inhibit the inherent properties of jackfruit seed starch or endow it new specific properties.
