The results indicated that the pollen vi-tality (81.5%) of Syringa villosa was the highest among the seven tested species, followed by S. microphylla and S. meyeri, and that of S. oblata var. affinis was the lowest. The low temperature was the best condition for storage of pollen of Syringa, and the most proper temperature for the storage was 0-2 癈. The storability of S. microphylla was the best of all, and it could be stored over 60 days at the temperature of 0-2 癈, next was S. villosa and S. meyeri.展开更多

[Method] Three different exoge- nous hormones IBA, NAA and ABT, each with concentrations of 500, 1 000, 1 500 and 2 000 mg/L were used to treat S. microphylla cuttings, and changes in the ac- tivities of peroxidase (POD), poiyphenol oxidase (PPO) and indoleacetic acid oxidase (IAAO) during the rooting process were also investigated. [Result] The most appro- priate concentrations of IBA, ABT and NAA were 1 500, 1 000 and 1 000 mg/L, respectively, and the 1 500 mg/L IBA treatment exhibited the best effect on rooting. Throughout the rooting process, POD and PPO activities showed the same trends in the treatment groups as those in the control group, but the POD and PPO activi- ties in the treatment groups were increased significantly, with greater amplitude of variation; at the early stage, IAAO activity exhibited an opposite trend between the control group and the treatment groups, which increased slowly in the former, but decreased rapidly in the latter, and it was significantly lower in the treatment groups compared to the control; additionally, higher POD and IAAO activities were con- ducive to the induction of adventitious roots, and lower POD and IAAO activities fa- vored their formation and elongation. [Conclusion] This study has preliminarily clari- fied the rooting mechanism of S. microphylla cuttings.展开更多

The orthogonal experiments, in-cluding the selection of basal medium, embryo age and other factors such as sugar, benzyladenine (BA), naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) and glutamine (Gln), were carried out. The results indicated that the optimal medium for embryo culture was Monnier medium supplemented with NAA (0.001 mgL-1), BA (0.1 mgL-1), sugar (50 gL-1), and Gln (400 mgL-1), with a germination rate of 91.7% at least; the optimal embryo age was 50 d; and Gln had significant effects on the germination rate of embryo. Moreover, the optimal medium for subculture was MS+BA (2 mgL-1)+NAA (0.001 mgL-1)+Gln (0.5 mgL-1), with the propaga-tion coefficient of 3.6 at least.展开更多

[ Method ] hrpZpsg12 gene was cloned from P. syringae using PCR method. The knockout plasmid pKNOCK-Cm with suicide characteristics and cosmid pUFR034 with complementation func- tion were used to construct the mutation vector pKNOCK477-7 and complementary vector pUFR1026-68 of hrpZpsg12 gene, the mutant 477-1 and the functional com- plementation unit 1026-5 of the gene was also screened out. Three strains including wild-type Psg12, mutant 477-1 and complementary unit 1026-5 were simultane- ously inoculated into soybean leaves and tobacco leaves, then pathogenicity determination and hypersensitive reaction analysis were carried out. [ Result] All the inoculated leaves of soybean and tobacco produced reaction lesion. However, the sizes of reaction lesion were different. The lesion in the leaves inoculated with Psgl2 was relatively large, while the lesion in the leaves inoculated with 477-1 was relatively small; the lesion of complementary unit 1026-5 was similar to wild- type Psgl2. Analysis of reproduction quantity of bacteria in lesions showed that the reproduction quantity of wild-type Psg12 was the highest, while that of mutant 477-1 was the lowest. The reproduction quantity of complementary unit 1026-5 was similar to that of wild-type Psg12. [ Conclusion] hrpZpsg12 gene could enhance the pathogenicity of P. syrimgae on Soybean and produce hypersensitive response in tobacco.展开更多

Thus, this study aimed to gain insights into differences in leaf functional traits of heterophyllous Syringa oblata Lindl., which has been widely used as an ornamental tree around the world under different light intensities in East China. No significant differences existed in specific leaf area (SLA) between lanceolate- and heart-shaped leaves. Differ- ences in the investment per unit of light capture surface area deployed between lanceolate- and heart-shaped leaves may benot obvious. This may be attributing to the fact that single leaf wet and dry weight of heart-shaped leaves were significantly higher than those of lanceolate leaves but leaf length and leaf thickness of heart-shaped leaves were significantly lower than those of lanceolate leaves. The SLA of shade trees was sig- nificantly higher than that of sun trees. The investment per unit of light capture surface of shade trees was lower than that of sun trees, making it possible to increase light capture and use efficiency in low-light environments. The phenotypic plas- ticity of most leaf functional traits of lanceoiate leaves was higher than those of heart-shaped leaves because the former is the juvenile and the latter is the adult leaf shape during the process of phylogenetic development of S. oblate. The higher range of phenotypic plasticity of leaf thickness and leaf moisture for sun trees may be beneficial to obtain a more efficient control of water loss and nutrient deprivation in high- light environments, and the lower range of phenotypic plas- ticity of single leaf wet and dry weight, and SLA for shade trees may gain an advantage to increase resource (especially light) capture and use efficiency in low-light environments. In brief, the successfully ecological strategy of plants is to find an optimal mode for the trade-off between various functional traits to obtain more living resources and achieve more fitness advantage as much as possible in the multivariate environment.展开更多

Its dry flowers are traditionally used to manufacture infusions and spices in China. In this study, the floral volatiles emitted from nine different Syringa species and varieties, viz. S. chinensis, S. protolaciniata, S. oblata, S. oblata var. giraldii, S. oblata var. plena, S. vulgaris 'Mrs Harry Bickle', S. vulgaris 'Bright Centennial', S. vulgaris 'White Spires', and S. vulgaris 'President Lincoln' were collected by the dynamic headspace technique, and then identified by automated thermal desorption-gas chromatography/mass spectrometry. There were significant differences in components and corresponding contents of floral scent emitted from the nine Syringa species and varieties. Among the detected components, β-ocimene exhibited the highest content, accounting for more than 70 % of the floral scent of S. protolaciniata, S. oblata var. giraldii, and S. vulgaris 'Bright Centennial'. A significant daytime variation of floral scent emitted from S. pekinensis was recorded, especially for benzaldehyde, whose content first increased and then decreased. We studied the scent emitted from the in vitro flowers of S. vulgaris 'Pres Lincoln' during the process of natural drying. Alcohol compounds were released in the greatest content, and the content of 2-ethyl-l-hexanol accounted for about 40 % of the total release amount. The results described the emission pattern and mechanisms of floral scent in Syringa.展开更多
