简介:植物受体蛋白激酶参与植物的生长发育,抗逆抗病防御反应、细胞分化、在宿主与病原菌互作过程中起着重要的作用。目前在花生上蛋白激酶基因研究较少。本研究基于前期多态性SNP标记的开发和QTL定位,获得了一个抗青枯病候选蛋白激酶基因;通过RT-PCR克隆技术获得了一段长为2154bp的ORF序列,暂命名为AhLRPK1;采用生物信息学方法预测并分析AhLRPK1基因编码的蛋白质常规理化性质,跨膜结构域、进化分析和高级结构等。结果表明AhLRPK1基因编码717个氨基酸为稳定的亲水性蛋白,含有一个信号肽、跨膜结构域、多个LRR基序以及一个激酶结构域;与拟南芥LRR亚家族进化同源性分析显示AhLRPK1属于LRRⅤ亚家族,与拟南芥的AT3G13065蛋白亲缘关系最近;AhLRPK1基因在花生基因芯片中表达模式分析表明,在茎和花中的表达量最大,在青枯菌诱导情况下,AhLRPK1基因在抗感花生品种中都表现出下调表达的趋势,AhLRPK1基因受乙烯利表达下调。这些结果有助于进一步验证其生物功能。
简介:为了探讨砂梨新品种苏翠1号的贮藏特性,研究了不同贮藏温度(25℃和4℃)对苏翠1号梨的采后生理和品质的影响。结果表明:苏翠1号梨表现出呼吸跃变型果实的特征,采后有呼吸高峰和乙烯释放高峰;常温(25℃)贮藏条件下,随着贮藏时间的延长,果皮叶绿素含量、果肉硬度、可滴定酸含量逐渐降低,果实失重率、果肉褐变度、过氧化氢含量、超氧阴离子含量、丙二醛(MDA)含量和电解质渗透率逐渐升高,14d后果实品质开始明显下降;低温(4℃)贮藏延缓了果皮叶绿素含量、果肉硬度、可滴定酸含量的下降,60d内仍维持着较好的感官品质。低温显著延缓果实衰老,可有效延长苏翠1号梨的贮藏期。
