Soil moisture and light intensity influenced the ecophysiological characteristics of Amorpha fruticosa seedlings. Soil moisture resulted in the decreases of growth rate, individual size, net photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, leaf water loss rate （WLR）, and biomass accumulation of plant parts, and led to increased leaf water saturation deficit （WSD）. Under water stress, more photosynthetic products were allocated to root growth. With decreasing light intensity, net photosynthetic rate, transpiration rate, chla/b, water saturation deficit, water use efficiency, water loss rate and biomass accumulation declined, while Chla, Chlb, Chla＋b and carotenoids （Car） increased and more photosynthetic products were allocated to stem and leaf growth. Maximum growth vigor, net photosynthetic rate and total biomass accumulation in Amorpha fruticosa seedlings was recorded at 75 80% soil water-holding capacity and 100% light density in greenhouse environments.展开更多
A new isoflavone was obstained from the medicinal herb Amorpha fruticosa. It was elucidated asbenzopyran- 12-one, 1,4,10,11 - tetrahydro-6′-[8′-（hydroxymethy1）etheny1]-2,3-dimethoxy-8′-O-β-glucopyranosy1-O-α-D-...A new isoflavone was obstained from the medicinal herb Amorpha fruticosa. It was elucidated asbenzopyran- 12-one, 1,4,10,11 - tetrahydro-6′-[8′-（hydroxymethy1）etheny1]-2,3-dimethoxy-8′-O-β-glucopyranosy1-O-α-D-arabinoside by spectroscopic methods including UV, IR, 1D NMR and 2D NMR techniques. And the activity against acetaminophen-induced hepatotoxicity of this compound was also studied, and found this compound can protect liver obviously from hepatotoxicity induced by acetaminophen （AAP）. ？2009 Ting Guo Kang.

An Amorpha fruticosa cDNA clone encoding UDP glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGP), a key enzyme producing UDP glucose in the synthesis of sucrose and cellulose, is cloned by using this method. We design 5’ RACE primers based on UGPA1 fragment, which obtains from degenerate PCR. Inverse PCR and nested PCR enable cloning of the remainder 5’ and 3’ end fragments of the gene. The deduced amino acid sequence exhibits significant homology with the other UGP genes cloned. This method is more simple and inexpensive than screening cDNA library, and can be easily adapted to clone other genes.展开更多

The results showed that both species of seeds can keep high germination percentage after cryopreservation. For A. fruticosa, the germination percentage of seeds was the highest when 4.1% MC was used for storage, and for P. orientalis it was the highest when 6.0% MC was used for storage. It is feasible for both species of seeds to be stored in liquid nitrogen.展开更多
