Fertile organs andin situ spores of a matoniaceous fern from the Lower Jurassic of West Hubei 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Fossil matoniaceous plants represented byPhlebopteris have been formerly described and illustrated from the Mesozoic of China mainly based on vegetative leaves, and no information
is provided on the fine structure of fertile organs. Recent reinvestigation of the Hsiangchi Flora from the Lower Jurassic
of West Hubei, China, obtained a rich collection of well preservedPhlebopteris specimens (both sterile and fertile). Studies onPhlebopteris polypodioides Brongniart using LM and SEM reveal not only the structures of sori and sporangia, but also the details ofin situ spores. Comparisons have been made between thein situ spores and other related fossil and extant matoniaceous spores, as well as the dispersed genera. 相似文献

A well-preserved permineralized osmundaceous fern was discovered from the Middle Jurassic Tiaojishan Formation of Beipiao,
Liaoning Province, China. The rhizome is about 50 cm high and 35–41 cm in diameter and can be attributed to the genus Ashicaulis on the basis of its anatomy. The sterile pinnae are referable to Cladophlebis, the fertile pinnules are of the Todites type with in situ spores of the Osmundacidites type. Osmundaceous rhizomes have been found all over the world including the Jurassic strata of western Liaoning, China.
Until now, however, no rhizomes have been reported to be organically connected with leafy organs. Although impressions and
compressions of isolated osmundaceous sterile and fertile fronds are common, they were described under separate organ- or
morpho-generic names, such as Todites and Cladophlebis. The new discovery provides an opportunity to study an osmundaceous fern in ‘whole plant concept’ to learn more about its
morphology and structure, and the paleoclimatic and paleoenvironmental requrirements of this group. 相似文献

A petrified strobilusDiscinites sinensis sp. nov. is discovered from the Lower Permian of Shizuishan in Ningxia, North China. The epidermal cells of sporophyll are
long and narrow, with both ends pointed. Each sporangium is ellipsoid, with the basal part contracted and short, thick sporangiophore-like.
The cells of tapetum and sporangial walls are arranged longitudinally. The annulus is not developed. Mega- and microsporangia
are similar in shape. They can hardly be distinguished unless they are broken, and the spores are exposed.In situ mega- and microspores are also similar in shape and both of theDeltoidospora type. The new species supports the systematic placement ofDiscinites within Noeggerathiales, and the progymnosperm affinity of the Noeggerathiales. 相似文献

The substructure of pollen exine inCedrus deodara (Roxb.) Loud. andMetasequoia glyptostroboides Hu et Cheng has been examined with an atomic force microscope (AFM). The results indicate that the exine substructure units
containing sporopollenin in two species are similar in shape, which are granular, but slightly different in size. InCedrus the substructure unit of pollen exine appears to be 56–99 nm long and 42–74 nm wide, while inMetasequoia it appears to be 81–118 nm long and 43–98 nm wide. It has been observed that the subunits of pollen exine inCedrus arranged tightly to form short-rod-like or spheroidal pollen exine units, several or more than ten of which formed an island-like
structure. There are various spaces among these island-like structures which are interconnected to occupy the entire pollen
exine. InMetasequoia, the subunits of pollen exine also arranged tightly with a distribution tendency of cluster of 3–10, however, no obvious
boundary exists among these clusters. From our results, it is concluded that there is no tendency of helical arrangement for
the subunits of pollen exine inCedrus andMetasequoia, and the results support Southworth’ view that subunits of pollen exine are granular shape in lattice structure. 相似文献

The n-alkanes are extracted from NMLC-1 core that was drilled in the Nam Co, central Tibet. They are measured by using Gas Chromatography and Mass Spectrometry (GC/MS) for componential and quantitative analyses. According to the constructed depth-age model, the component and concentration of n-alkanes, together with total organic carbon (TOC), total nitrogen (TN) and carbonate are used to elucidate palaeoenvironmental changes of Nam Co during the past 8.4 ka. The results indicate that Holocene environment performs three stages in the lake area. In the stage of 8.4-6.7 kaB.P., it was warmer while precipitation slightly increased. This stage was ended by an obvious cold/dry event. During 6.7-5.8 kaB.P., temperature increased rapidly and reached its maximum values at about 6.0 kaB.P. The environments were warm/wet optimum for the blooming of terrestrial plants and submerged aquatic plants. After that, temperature decreased continuously and showed the lowest values at about 3.0 kaB.P. From 2.9 kaB.P, to the present, temperature rose again but alternated with cold and warm. The lake area tended to be dry after 1.4 kaB.P. During 600-400 aB.P., the environmental feature was the reflection of "Little Ice Age". 相似文献

With wax content of 1.62%, heavy oil has been produced from the sandstone reservoirs of Neogene Guantao Formation (Ng1Ⅲ). In the GC and GC-MS RIC profiles of its aliphatic fraction, n-alkanes are totally lost, which shows the result of heavy biodegradedation. However, the remaining trace C13-C36 n-alkanes can be still seen from its m/z 85 mass chromatogram. In addition, a complete series of C35-C73 high molecular weight (HMW) n-alkanes was detected by high-temperature gas chromatography (HTGC). The HMW n-alkane series shows a normal distribution pattern, a major peak at nC43, obvious odd-carbon-number predominance, CPI37—55 and OEP45—49 values up to 1.17 and 1.16—1.20 respectively. The present study not only has conformed the strong resistibility of HMW n-alkanes to biodegradation in crude oils as concluded by previous researchers, but also has provided some significant information on source input and maturity for the heavily biodegraded oil in the Qianmiqiao region. 相似文献

30 years have pas. since a printeddhārani sūtra scroll was discovered in 1966 in Kyongju. Korea. However. there have been different views about the date and place of its
printing and publication in Korea and abroad. Some Korean scholars think that it was translated into Chinese from Sanskrit
in 704 in China and printed during 706–751 in the Silla period in Korea. After a further research it is now proved that this
sutra was translated into Chinese in 701 and printed in the following year, 702, in Luoyang, during the reign of Empress Wu.
This shows that the sutra could not have been printed in the Silla period. The discoveries of theSnddharma pundarik sūtra printed during 690–699 and the Sanskritdharani charm printed around 650–670 in China also show that thedhārani sutra found in Korea is not the earliest one. Both literary records and archaeological findings prove that printing originated
in China. 相似文献

Ternary inclusion complexes β-cyclodextrin (β-CD), rare earth metal ions (YbCl3, YCl3), and 1,8-naphthalene- diamine/1,5-naphthalenediamine are synthesized in basic aqueous media, which are characterized via
1H NMR and IR spectroscopy. The stoichiometric proportion of β-CD:YbCl3:1,5-naphthalenediamine is 2:1:2, that of β-CD:YCl3:1,8-naphthalenediamine is 2:1:1, and that of β-CD:YbCl3:1,8-naphthalenediamine is 2:1:1. The IR spectroscopy of the ternary inclusion complexes in the range of 935–1 000 cm−1 reveals the existence of the coordinate bond M—O or M—N. The possible conformations of the ternary inclusion complexes are
depicted.

The interaction of Cu2+ with the first 16 residues of the Alzheimer's amyliod β peptide, Aβ (1-16), was studied by employing isothermal titration calorimetry at pH 7.2 and 37℃ in aqueous solution. The Gholamreza Rezaei Behbehani (GRB) solvation model was used to reproduce the enthalpies of Cu2++ Aβ(1-16) interaction over the whole Cu2+ concentrations. The binding parameters recovered from the solvation model were attributed to the structural change of Aβ (1-16) due to the metal ion interaction. It was found that there is a set of two identical and non interacting binding sites for Cu2+ ions. The molar enthalpy of binding is ΔH=27.895 kJ/mol. The association binding constants are 1.895 μm-1 and 1.891 μm-1 for the first and second binding sites respectively. 相似文献

FromTetrahymena thermophila (strain BF5), the coding region ofCd-MT gene was cloned and sequenced, and identified as MTTI isoform. A serial duplicate structure is discovered in its amino acid
sequence, which separates the coding region into three parts (Part 1: 7–61: Part 2: 64–118; Part 3: 122–162). The alignments
among them and comparison with the corresponding parts of MT1 isoform suggest that MT1 and MTT1 isoforms both come from the
same ancient gene that is homologous to Part 1, and Cd-MTs ofTetrahymena are aroused by such ancient gene duplication. The prediction of secondary structures and the analysis of the disulfide-bonding
state of cysteine show that there are a lot of differences between MT1 and MTT1 isoforms, which maybe relate to their function
mechanism.

A large number of adventitious buds were induced fromin vitro cultured young inflorescences of haploids of rice. Having been subcultured on solidified subculture media at 26°C for 7 days,
the adventitious buds were loaded into 1.8 mL plastic cryotubes with cryoprotectant and kept on ice for 45–60 min. After cooled
at a rate of 1.0°C/min down to −40°C, the samples, were kept in liquid nitrogen. The adventitious buds which have been cryopreserved
for about 30 days were thawed rapidly in 38–40°C water and then plated on solidified MS medium containing 3% sucrose, 0.5
mg/L NAA and 2.0 mg/L kinetin. After plated, 23%–32% of adventitious buds resumed growth and 15%–22% regenerated plantlets.
The results of this work indicated that the adventitious buds derived fromin vitro cultured young inflorescences is a critical factor for the success and subculturing adventitious buds on MS medium containing
3% sucrose and 4% sorbitol or 20% potato extract is essential to the procedure. The effective cryoprotectant is 10% DMSO (dimethyl
sulfoximide)+0.5 mol/L sorbitol.

ECBP21 is an extracellular calmodulin-binding protein which was first detected and purified from extracellular extracts of
suspension-cultured cells of Angelica dahurica. The purified protein was electroblotted onto PVDF membrane and the amino acid sequences from 1 to 20 were determined. Using
degenerate oligonucleotides of the sequence, a full-length cDNA coding for ECBP21 was isolated by a combination of RT-PCR
and 5′-RACE cloning. The cDNA contains 947 nucleotides and codes for a precursor protein of 216 amino acids. The N-terminal
1–25 amino acid sequence is a predicted signal peptide and the other 26–216 amino acid sequence is a mature peptide. The 26–45
amino acid sequence shows identity with the N-terminal amino acid sequence of purified ECBP21 from Angelica dahurica. The fragment of encoding the mature protein was cloned into pET-28b(+) and transformed into E. coli BL21(DE3). A protein with relative molecular mass 21 ku was expressed in E. coli. Using a biotinylated-CaM gel overlay technique, the expression protein was tested for its ability to bind CaM. The results
indicated that the expression protein is a Ca2+-dependent CaM-binding protein. Thus, these results further defined the cDNA clone for ECBP21. This work laid a foundation
for elucidating biological functions of ECBP21 by using molecular biological means. 相似文献

Transformation of plant young proembryos by electroporation 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
It is first reported that plant young proembryos expressed exogenous reporter genes by electroporation. Young proembryos with
8–32 cells and globular proembryos with 250–400 cells could be isolated by enzymatic maceration combined with microdissection.
After electroporation withGUS orGFP genes, the proembryos were cultured for 1–2 d in KM8p medium. At the field strength of electroporation 500–1500 V/cm, blue
reaction of GUS or green fluorescence of GFP could be observed in the proembryos. The highest transient expression frequency
of young proembryos (2.2%) was obtained at the field strength of 750 V/cm, whereas the highest frequency of globular proembryos
(5.9%) was obtained at the field strength of 1 250 V/cm. Taking the proportion of transformed cells in the whole cells of
proembryos as efficient transformation frequency, the efficient transformation frequency of the young proembryos was 7 times
that of the globular proembryos. 相似文献

The β18-β19 loop in domain Ⅲ of Cry1Ac toxin is unique among Bacillus thuringlensis Cry proteins. In this study, the role of the loop structure in insecticidal activity of Cry1Ac toxin was investigated. Alanine scanning mutations within the loop were initially generated and most mutants were over-expressed and reduced toxicity at different degrees, except mutant N546A that showed almost 2 times enhanced toxicity against Helicoverpa armigera larvae. Further mutagenic analysis of N546 revealed that a charged amino acid in this position would cause very unfavorable influence on insecticidal activity. In addition, the deletion of N546 led to protein instability because of destruction of the loop integrity. Besides, mutant W544F was much more toxic than W544Y, indicating that hydrophobic nature of the position was important for maintaining the stability and activity of Cry1Ac protein. These findings are the first biological evidence for a structural function of β18-β19 loop in insecticidal activity of the Cry1Ac toxin. 相似文献

Starch,the main component of the wheat grain,is the product of a complex biochemical pathway. The sbeⅡα gene plays a key role in controlling the synthesis of starch, in particular, the biosynthesis of amylopectin,in maturing wheat grain.To investigate its regulatory mechanisms and endosperm-specific expression pattern, the sbeⅡα promoter (3094 bp in length) was cloned using APCR and sequenced.The effect of a series of deletions was studied using a GUS transient assay system. Results showed that the 3094 bp sequence (sbe.g construct) exhibited full stable promoting activity and that the activities of 5′ or 3′ deletions reduced levels of GUS expression. Some constructs with internal deletions showed only weak activity, however,sbe.e, with a deletion from -1579—--1210 bp resulted in higher levels of expression than the full-length promoter sequence, sbe.g. This indicates that motifs such as the -300 bp element, G-box and/or P-box act as positive elements and are necessary in determining the promoter‘s endosperm-specific pattern and that negative repressor elements or motifs may also be present within the -1579—-1210 bp sequence. The age of wheate ndosperm tissue used in the GUS-transient assay system is shown to be of significant importance. 相似文献

A method of preparing exine-detached pollen inNicotiana tabacum was established. Anthers containing early-middle binucleate pollen were cold-pretreated at 4–6°C for 7–14 days, and were
suspended in 0.3 mol/L sucrose solution for 2 days. During this process, the exine of most pollen grains dehisced. Then they
were transferred into an enzyme solution containing 1% cellulase, 1% pectinase, 0.1% pectolyase, 1 mol/L mannitol, 0.3 mol/L
sorbitol, 0.5% potassium dextran sulphate and K3 medium macro elements. After 15–20 min enzymatic maceration, the exine was
detached resulting in the release of exine-detached pollen. Factors affecting preparation of exine-detached pollen were investigated,
including cold-pretreatment, osmoticum concentration and enzymes used.
