The sequence of 16 S rRNA gene had 99% homology to B. subtilis according to the DNA fragment of 1 521 bp amplified with a pair of universal primers,P0 and P6,of bacteria. Confront culture with pathogenic fungi showed that this strain had good inhibitory effect against 10 pathogenic fungi.展开更多

[Method] The chitinase gene with inhibitory effect against a variety of pathogenic fungi was cloned and analyzed in this study. [Result] The genome of HAS strain contained an ORF of 834 bp. The homology of coding protein corresponding to ORF with chitosanase [Bacillus subtilis subsp. subtilis str. 168](ref|NP_390566.1) was the highest of 98%(272/277).[Conclusion]Through the analysis of amino acid sequence and secondary structure of the protease, tertiary structure prediction and analysis, HAS strain may play a pivotal role in controlling Sporisorium scitaminea Syd.展开更多

Sequence analysis indicated that the full-length TasA cloned from HAS consisted of 786 nucleotides, and shared 99% homology in nucleotide sequence with the TasA gene sequence published in Genbank (AJ871386.1). It was predicted that the molecular weight of TasA protein was about 28 kD. Base transitions or transversions ~curred at positions 104, 164, 169,250, 399,623 and 627, at the 2nd, 2nd, 3rd , 1st , 3rd, 2nd and 3rd bases of TasA codons. The mutations in the seven bases may cause the missense mutations of the polypeptide chain. Compared with the amino acid sequences of the TasA protein encoded by Bacillus aubtilis subsp, subtilis str. 168, mutations in two amino acids at positions 150 and 209 of the protein encoded by the cloned TasA gene were found, and as a result, an ala- nine was replaced with a threonine.展开更多

The results showed that 16 S rDNA gene fragment with the size of 1 533 bp was obtained,and its sequence had the homology of 99% with the sequence of Bacillus subtilis. The morphological characteristics of the strain were as follows: the mycelium of strain HAS was short-rod shape,and could move; Gram staining was positive; 3% KOH solubility test was negative; flagellum was grown around the cells; spores were grown in the middle,elliptic,and cysts were slightly swelled. The strain was preliminarily identified as B. subtilis. Dual culture with pathogenic fungi showed that the strain had good inhibitory effect against various pathogenic fungi causing diseases on sugarcane and other crops. Therefore,strain HAS isolated in the study was identified to be B.subtilis,which had good control effect against S. scitaminea.展开更多

We report here the expression of a Grlfola frondosa trehalose synthase (TSase) gene for Improving drought tolerance In sugarcane (Saccharum offlclnarum L.). The expression of the transgene was under the control of two tandem copies of the CaMV35S promoter and transferred Into sugarcane by Agrobacterium tumefaciens EHA105. The transgenlc plants accumulated high levels of trehalose, up to 8.805-12.863 mg/g fresh weight, whereas It was present at undetectable level in nontransgenlc plants. It has been reported that transgenlc plants transformed with Escherlchla coil TPS (trehalose-6-phosphatesynthase) and/or TPP (trehalose-6-phosphate phosphatase) are severely stunted and have root morphologlc alterations. Interestingly, our transgenlc sugarcane plants had no obvious morphological changes and no growth Inhibition in the field. Trehalose accumulation in 35S-35S:TSase plants resulted In In- creased drought tolerance, as shown by the drought and the drought physiological Indexes, such as the rate of bound water/free water, plasma membrane permeability, malondlaldehyde content, chlorophyll a and b contents, and activity of SOD and POD of the excised leaves. These results suggest that transgenlc plants transformed with the TSase gene can accumulate high levels of trehalose and have enhanced tolerance to drought.展开更多
