经过多年田间和温室接种抗病性鉴定,从(77-5433×中5)杂交组合花药培养后代中选育出一个兼抗大麦黄矮病、条锈、叶锈和秆锈4种小麦主要病害的新种质遗4212。遗4212的体细胞染色体数为42,在减数分裂中期Ⅰ,在几乎所有的花粉母细胞中都可以观察到21个二价体,这说明遗4212是一个在遗传上业已稳定的整倍体材料。对(遗4212×77-5433)F_1代花粉母细胞的观察表明,遗4212可能是含1对外源中间偃麦草染色体的代换系或具较大中间偃麦草染色体片段的易位系。用基因组原位杂交(genomic in situ hybridization,GISH)对遗4212的有丝分裂中期相、减数分裂后期Ⅰ相和(遗4212×77-5433)F_1代花粉母细胞减数分裂中期Ⅰ、后期Ⅰ进行了检测,确证遗4212含1对外源中间偃麦草染色体。这些结果表明,遗4212是一个小麦一中间偃麦草代换系,其抗病性来自其携带的1对中间偃麦草。
As a seed transmitted pathogen, pea seed_borne mosaic virus (PSbMV) not only replicates in embryonic cells but can also withstand seed desiccation. To understand the mechanism of PSbMV tolerance to seed desiccation, the authors compared the stability of viral coat protein (CP) and the distribution of viral particles in the cotyledon cells of pea (Pisum sativum L.) embryos collected before and after the dehydration process. Before dehydration, when the embryo was fresh and immature, degradation of CP was observed and a predominantly perinuclear distribution of viral particles in the cotyledon cells was evident. After dehydration, when the embryo was dry and mature, degradation of CP did not occur and the perinuclear viral distribution disappeared. Instead, aggregates containing PSbMV CP were found in the cytoplasm. Electron microscopy showed that these aggregates were composed of PSbMV particles. The formation of PSbMV particle aggregates is apparently triggered by seed dehydration and may be favorable to the virus survival in the desiccated embryonic cells.
