The results showed that 10 highly reproducible ISSR fragments a-mong 40 primers were screened. Using these primers, a total of 684 ISSR frag-ments from 500 to 3 000 bp were amplified, and 59.2% of them showed polymor-phic by unweighted pair-group method with arithmetic （UPGMA） analysis. It revealed that the 22 accessions had a similarity range from 0.63 to 0.95, and existed biolog-ical diversities. Based on cluster and principal coordinate analyses, al accessions could be divided into four distinct groups.展开更多

Two nodule-specific genes, AsIIC259 and AsG2511, are identified from infected roots of A. sinicus. The amino acid sequences deduced from the open reading frames (ORFs) reveal that AsIIC259 and AsG2511 encodes a polypeptide with 134 and 58 amino acids, respectively. A signal peptide sequence is predicted with high probability at the N-termini of the AsIIC259 and AsG2511. The motif searches show that the deduced polypeptide of AsIIC259 con- tains two N-glycosylation sites, a cAMP- and cGMP-dependent protein kinase phosphorylation site and a casein kinase II phosphorylation site. BLASTP searches reveal that AsIIC259 putative protein displays a low degree of similarity to a unique nodulin from Lupinus luteus nodules. No significant identity is displayed over the predicted polypeptides of AsG2511 with any published sequences. Virtual Northern blot and semi-quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) analyses indicate that the two genes are expressed exclusively in inoculated roots and that their expression is 2―4 d later than that of the leghaemoglobin (Lb) gene during nodule development.展开更多
