摘要： The recent de-registration of several chemical nematicides and the impending loss of methyl bromide from the pest-control market necessitate the development of new methods for controlling nematode-induced crop damage. One approach for developing novel target-specific controls is by exploiting fundamental differences between the biological processes of nematodes and their host plants. Researchers of the Agricultural Research Service (ARS) of the US Department of Agriculture are actively exploring these differences. Research accomplishments include the discovery of heat shock protein genes possibly involved in developmental arrest of the soybean cyst nematode, the identification of neuropeptides and female-specific proteins in the soybean cyst nematode, the disruption of nematode reproduction with inhibitors of nematode sterol metabolism, the development of novel morphological and molecular (heat shock protein genes and the D3 segment of large subunit ribosomal DNA) features useful for nematode identification and classification, and the elucidation of the population genetics of potato cyst nematode pathotypes. In addition, several ARS researchers are investigating biological determinants of nematode response to management strategies utilized in agricultural fields. These collective efforts should lead to new chemical and non-chemical alternatives to conventional nematode control strategies.

关键词： Eryngium cuneifolium   Florida scrub   Hypericum cumulicola   Liatris ohlingerae   mating system  

摘要： We investigated the reproductive biology of three plants endemic to rosemary scrub habitats on the Lake Wales Ridge of Florida, USA. We used hand-pollination experiments and observations of flowers and their insect visitors to determine their mating systems and pollination. Fruit or seed set after self pollination was 94, 97, and 8% of fruit or seed set after cross pollination in Eryngium cuneifolium (Apiaceae), Hypericum cumulicola (Hypericaceae), and Liatris ohlingerae (Asteraceae) respectively, indicating that the first two are self-compatible and the last is obligately outcrossing. All three depend on insects for seed production (4-7% fruit or seed set without insects). Diverse insects visit flowers of E. cuneifolium (101 species recorded), whereas L. ohlingerae is visited predominantly by butterflies and H. cumulicola by one genus of bees (Dialictus, Halictidae). Our data indicate pollinator visitation does not currently limit seed production in E. cuneifolium or H. cumulicola, but does in L. ohlingerae. Despite the features they share (habit, habitat, disturbance regime), we found unique aspects of these species' reproductive biology yielding unique risks to population viability. We suggest that. multispecies recovery plans must consider several aspects of the biology of species with superficial similarities to be successful. (C) 2003 Elsevier Science Ltd.

关键词： .Plant Biology   become   partial   Challenge   st century   achieving   Silico Plant  

摘要： The challenges faced by Earth have never been more acute than they are now at the dawn of the 21st century. In silico plants may provide a unique albeit partial solution to several of the most daunting problems that we will face in the coming decades (the scarcity of oil and freshwater and the need to pro- duce more food). Although there is no single solution to these emerging problems, systems biology is a vehicle for gaining advanced knowledge of mecha- nistic plant biology that may provide the scientific basis for such partial solutions. There is already am- ple evidence that plant productivity can be further enhanced for food, feed, and fiber production and that an increased understanding of biotic and abiotic stress tolerance mechanisms may allow us to produce more food with less water (Somerville and Briscoe, 2001). However, to engineer plants with foresight and within the requisite timeframe, we need to achieve a comprehensive understanding of how plants work. We need to understand plants so thor- oughly that we can accurately predict how they will respond to any given genetic manipulation or envi- ronmental perturbation. We must progress from sim- ply trying to understand the function of each element in a plant individually to trying to understand how all these elements work together in the living plant. Only in this way can we maximize the usefulness of plants to benefit humanity in a realistic time frame. What do we need to begin the path from our current understanding of the parts of plants to a synthesis that allows the understanding of their interactions We require the development of new high-throughput experimental tools and approaches to gather and con- figure data, with contributions from the traditional individual investigator and through consortium ef- forts. We require improved and facile plant cell imag- ing techniques to dynamically track interacting pro- teins, metabolites, and cellular processes. We require advances in computational biology to

摘要： 植物细胞质是生理生化反应的集中部位,植物的正常生长发育需要维持细胞内离子的相对平衡状态,而细胞质保持相对恒定的K+/Na+的能力是植物盐适应性的重要决定因素之一。各种离子的相对平衡是许多生理过程的综合结果,包括离子的内流、外流、外排和区域化等。离子的转运是由位于膜上的转运蛋白完成的,并受到多基因的调控。离子转运蛋白的分子生物学研究近年来发展很快,本研究将介绍有关方面的研究进展。

关键词： ABA   salt stress   transgenic plants  

摘要： Soil salinity is a major abiotic stress in plant agriculture strongly, influencing plant productivity world-wide. Classical breeding for salt tolerance in crop plants has been attempted to improve field performance without success. Therefore, an alternative strategy is to generate salt tolerant plants through genetic engineering. Several species and experimental approaches have been used in order to identify those genes that are important for salt tolerance. Due to high level of salt tolerance, halophytes are good candidates to identify salt tolerance genes. However, other species such as yeast and glycophytes have also been employed. Three approaches are commonly used to identify genes important for salt tolerance. The first approach is to identify genes involved in processes known to be critical for salt tolerance (osmolyte synthesis, ion homeostasis, etc.). The second approach is to identify genes whose expression is regulated by salt stress. This is relatively simply and applicable to any plant species. Genetic amenability of some species allows the third approach, which consists in the identification of salt tolerance determinants based on functionality. At the moment, there is a large number of reports in the literature claiming that plants with increased salt tolerance have been obtained. The main problem is that different plant species, stage of development, organs, promoters and salt conditions used it is difficult to compare the degree of salt tolerance conferred by different genes. In this review, we discuss progress made towards understanding the molecular elements involved in salt stress responses that have been used in transgenic approaches to improve salt tolerance.
