Among 356 positive colonies verified by colony PCR of the (AG)n microsatellite-enriched library, 233 colonies were selected for further sequencing. According to the results, 202 colonies containing microsatellites were obtained, accounting for 86.7%. Discarding sequences with miscella- neous peaks, overlapping peaks and weak signals, 39 sequences were screened finally for subsequent primer exploitation, including 22 perfect type SSR loci, 5 im- perfect type SSR loci and 12 compound type SSR loci. The FIASCO method is efficient and feasible for constructing microsatellite-enriched libraries of Rhododendron spp. , which laid a solid foundation for isolation of microsatellite loci and investigation of genetic diversity and genetic structure of Rhododendron spp.展开更多

A R. simsii variety "Purple Crane" was selected as the experimental material, and its flower organs were sampled at nine floral developmental stages to measure the contents of gibberellic acid-3 (GA3 ), abscisic acid (ABA), indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), and zeatin riboside (ZR) through enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA). The results showed that the content of ZR was highest at full flowering stage; IAA and GA3 contents were higher than other stages in the process of flower bud differentiation and flowering. ABA played an important role in the regulation of flower bud formation. The results will provide theoretical references for exploring the regulation of plant hormones towards Rhododendron flower traits and breeding new varieties.展开更多
