Pyrus ussuriensis Maxim is used as a starting material to clone the full-length cDNA of NPR1（nonexpressor of pathogenesis- related genes 1） which is a key regulator in SA （salicylic acid）-mediated systemic acquired resistance （SAR） by homologous cloning and RACE techniques. The length of the cDNA sequence was 1 767 bp, the ORF was 1 761 bp, it coded 586 amino acids, pi=5.58, the relative molecular weight was 65.009 ku, contained 19 kinds of amino acids, and had full BTB/POZ and ANK domains. Compared the homology of NPR1 gene in GenBank database, the homology with Pyrus pyrifolia, Arabidopsis thaliana, Nicotiana tabacum, Lycopersicon esculentum, Oryza sativa, Helianthus annuus were 98%, 62%, 68%, 65%, 57%, 63%. The homology offunctional area were 99%, 78%, 82%, 79%, 74%, 77%. This NPR1 gene was considered as homologic gene of Pyrus ussuriensis Maxim and named PumNPR1.展开更多

Therefore, all-male breeding could increase production of this fish, and sex-linked markers would be useful during the breeding process. In this study, a male-associated marker named PuGT54 was isolated in P. ussuriensis from a previously constructed microsatellite library. A total of 185 P. ussuriensis individuals containing 95 females and 90 males were used to test the usage of this maker. And results showed that sexes of all individuals were successfully identified, indicating the high reliability and accuracy of this marker for sex identifi cation. Furthermore, the male-specifi c fragment amplifi ed by this maker was cloned and sequenced, which was 118 base pairs in length. As homologous genes of this fragment was not found through BLASTn, detailed information of the male-specifi c fragment is unknown presently. Nevertheless, this marker would be helpful in conservation, breeding and ecological study of P. ussuriensis.展开更多
