[Method] Ninety one ISSR molecular markers were used for amplification on 44 shares of kenaf germplasm resources, of which 21 showing good diversity and clear bands were chosen for PCR amplification. Based on amplification results, the genetic similarity coefficients among kenaf germplasm resources were calculated by using analytic software NTSYSpc-2.10e, and phylogenetic tree was then established via UPGMA. [Result] Totally 169 bands were amplified using the 21 screened primers, averagely 8.05 bands were amplified from each primer. Of them, 141 bands were polymorphic, accounting for 83.4%. When genetic similarity coefficient 0.887 was used as criterion L1, these 44 shares of kenaf germplasm could be classified to be 32 shares of cultivars and 12 shares of wild type or half-wild type varieties. When genetic similarity coefficient 0.897 was used as criterion L2, these 32 shares of cultivars could be further grouped into four sub-clusters. The genetic diversities between cultivars and wild type or half-wild type varieties were between 0.46-0.91, showing huge hereditary difference; while that among 32 cultivars were between 0.85-0.97, suggesting that genetic relationships among cultivars are relatively close and their genetic similarities are rather narrow. [Conclusion] ISSR could well determine the genetic similarities among kenaf germplasm resources and provide valuable molecular information for selecting parents of hybrid cross, which can lay a good foundation for DNA mapping of kenaf germplasm resources.展开更多

The first is characterized by a high yield and wide adaptation, and the second by its super fiber property. Substitution line in which a pair of intact chromosomes of TM_1 ( G. hirsutum ) were replaced by a pair of homozygous chromosomes of 3_79 ( G. barbadense ) is an excellent material for genetic research and molecular tagging. In this study, substitution line 16 (Sub 16) was used to evaluate the performance of the 16th chromosome in G. barbadense in TM_1 background. The genetic analysis using the major gene plus polygene mixed inheritance model in F 2∶3 family revealed that there might exist 2 QTLs respectively for boll size, lint percentage, lint index, fiber length and the first fruit branch node, 1 QTL for fiber elongation and flowering date, and no QTL for seed index, fiber strength and Micronaire in chromosome 16. However, 9 QTLs (LOD (logarithm of odds)≥3.0) controlling 6 quantitative traits were significantly identified in linkage group of chromosome 16 constructed in (TM_1×3_79) F 2by interval mapping. Among them, 1 QTL for boll size, fiber length, flowering date and fiber elongation could explain 15.2%, 19.7%, 12.1%, and 11.7% phenotypic variance respectively, 2 QTLs for lint index could explain 11.6% and 41.9%, and 3 QTLs for lint percentage could explain 8.7%, 9.6% and 29.2% phenotypic variance respectively. One unlinked SSR marker was associated with one QTL respectively for boll size and flowering date and they could explain 1.60% and 4.63% phenotypic variance. The traits associated significantly with chromosome 16 from Sub 16 were boll weight, lint percentage, lint index, fiber length, fiber elongation and flowering days.展开更多

The results got by GISH and PCR amplification of dispersed rye-specific repetitive DNA sequence suggested that the alien chromatin in T911289 derived from rye. Specifically PCR amplification of the rye-specific microsatellite primers (SCM9) and seed storage protein analysis indicated that the alien chromatin in T911289 had developed from the short arm of 1R chromosome of rye (1RS). PCR amplification by using microsatellite primers locating on 1BS and seed storage protein analysis also revealed that 1911289 had lost the arm of 1BS or a small distal segment of it. We conclude that T911289 is a heterogeneous population which displays two distinct different types of translocation, i.e. the Robertsonian translocation and small segment translocation. The Robertsonian translocation type observed in our study is different from the 1BL/1RS translocation which is widely used in wheat production; it may be a novel and complex translocation form. Though the linkage between the desirable agronomic traits and the deleterious genes expressed as sticky dough has not got broken in T911289, the recovery of small segment translocation will still benefit the genetic study of wheat and rye.展开更多

The results showed that starch synthesis-related genes were highly polymorphic between indica and japonica varieties, as they greatly variated among indica varieties, but were conserved among japonica varieties. The genotypes of two indica varieties9311 and Minghui 63 were more similar to that of japonica varieties. Two or three alleles of six starch synthesis-related genes were found in 28 japonica parental varieties. Four genotypes of two soluble starch synthase genes, SSIIa and SSIIIa,were detected in 88 stable lines derived from the cross of Kanto 194/ Wujing 13 using molecular markers.展开更多

Contourlet is a new image sparse representation, which is better than a wavelet for piecewise smooth images with smooth contours. Because of flexible multiresolution, local and directional sensitivity of Contourlet transform, our approach also defines significant-tree in the Contourlet domain. By analyzing the relation of the Contourlet coefficients, we embed the watermarking into all the coefficients of each significant-tree. Then referring to the statistical properties of the coefficients, the masking characteristics of texture are defined for adaptively controlling the embedding strength. Experimental results show that the proposed algorithm is highly robust to various attacks, such as JPEG compression, medium filtering, cropping and rotation. Furthermore, comparisons with a classical method in the wavelet domain prove the validity of the new algorithm.展开更多

At first, 256 SRAP primer pairs were used to amplify four representative germplasms to screen the best primer pairs that could produce poly-morphic DNA fragments. As a result, a total of 284 polymorphic DNA fragments were scored among the 48 JUNCAO germplasms from the electrophoresis patterns generated with 18 selected SRAP primer pairs. By using NTSYS-pc 2.1 software combined with UPGMA cluster analysis, the genetic similarity （SM） coefficient be- tween the 48 accessions was calculated and ranged from 0.58 to 0.98. All the 48 accessions were distinguished from each other. The 48 JUNCAO germplasms were classified into four categories at a genetic similarity coefficient of 0.645. The results showed that the SRAP markers could be effectively used for analysis of genetic di- versify of JUNCAO germplasms. Additionally, the results also showed that there ex- ist abundant JUNCAO germptasm in the genus Arundo in China. This study provides a new technique for studying the genetic diversify of JUNCAO germplasms. The selected combinations of SRAP primers can be used for genetic analyses on a larger number of JUNCAO germplasms in the future. Moreover, the results provide theoretical guidance and technical support for the efficient management and utilization of JUNCAO germplasm resources.展开更多

METHODS:Concentrations of MCP-1,soluble adhesion molecules intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (sICAM-1),sP- selectin,interleukin (IL) 6,and IL10 in serum were estimated in the group of 40 patients with chronic hepatitis C treated with IFNalpha2 b and RBV in 0,16,32,48 wk of the therapy, RESULTS:In chronic hepatitis C,before and during the treatment,the serum levels of MCP-1 and sP-selectin in responders were similar to those of healthy subjects.In non- responders (NR),MCP-1 increased in the course of IFNc^+RBV treatment,differences were statistically significant as compared to responders.MCP-1 correlated statistically with the activity of periportal inflammation (r=0.35,P<0.05) but not with staging of liver fibrosis,sICAM-1 positively correlated with inflammatory activity and fibrosis in NR.sP-selectin did not correlate with histological findings in the liver.The MCP-1 correlated with the soluble form of sP-selectin concentrations (r= 6,P<0.001) and with IL-10 level in NR (r=0.4,P<0.05).There was no correlation observed between the concentration of MCP-1 and sICAM-1,IL-6 during the treatment. CONCLUSION:MCP-1 concentration may be a prognostic marker of the efficacy of IFN+RBV therapy in patients with chronic hepatitis C.展开更多
