The main results show that the CC medium with 36g/L mannitol is a scheme subculture medium in which the browning of indica rice calli can be mitigated significantly; The concentration of 30~40mg/L Hyg or 150~200mg/L G418 or 10~20 mg/L Basta is suitable for selection of resistant calli; The transformation parameters of 100μg gold powder absorbing 0.2μg DNA per shot and 900 psi helium pressure and 6 cm bombardment distance and bombarded twice for each plate give the best result; Keeping the target calli on osmotic medium containing 60g/L mannitol from 12 ~24h before bombardment to 24~48h after it can increase the efficiencies of transformation . Furthermore, some transgenic indica rice plants are obtained using this optimized transformation system.展开更多

In the present study, we first investigated the genetic variation at the MHC II β gene in orange-spotted grouper (Epinephelus coioides) after a challenge with Singapore grouper iridovirus (SGIV). The results reveal that a high polymorphism level of the MHC II β gene (H = 1.000; K = 20.206; π=0.081) and at least three loci exist in grouper. The rate of dN/dS in the peptide-binding region (PBR) and non-PBR were both 〉1, suggesting the loci were evolving under positive selection. A high ratio of heterozygous individuals (37.26 %) and high rate of dN/dS were discovered, suggesting that both heterozygote advantage and frequency-dependent selection might result in the high polymorphism levels in MHC II β genes in grouper. A total of 33 MHC II β alleles were identified from 40 high-susceptibility (HS) and 40 high-re- sistance group (HR) individuals, and 15 alleles were used in the association analysis. Three alleles, EPCO-DBB*0302, EPCO-DBB*0307, EPCO-DBB*0603, and EPCO- DBB*1001 were significantly associated with resistance ability to SG1V, and the EPCO-DBB*0607 and EPCO-DBB*1303 alleles were associated with susceptibility (P 〈 0.05). To further confirm the association, another independent challenge experiment was performed. The result of association analysis in the verification test found that only EPCO-DBB*1001 alleles were significantly asso- ciated with resistance to SGIV (P 〈 0.05), while the other alleles showed no significance (P 〉 0.05) in the frequency distribution between HR and HS groups. Therefore, the EPCO-DBB* 1001 alleles could be used as a disease resis- tance-related MHC marker in the molecular marker-assisted selective breeding program of grouper.展开更多
