    Notes: [Auszug] Antlions are larvae of the Myrmeleontidae family that live on other insects by sucking out the body fluid from their prey, after first paralysing it with a toxin produced by salivary bacteria. Here we show that the paralysing toxin produced by bacterial endosymbionts in the saliva of Myrmeleon ...

    Notes: Summary The 5′ and 3′ flanking regions of the soybean glycinin gene, Gy1, responsible for expression in seeds, were analyzed by quantitative transient expression assay. The construct containing the β-glucuronidase (uidA) reporter gene under the control of the 1.12 kb Gy1 promoter and 0.74 kb Gy1 terminator was introduced into immature soybean seeds and leaves by particle bombardment. To normalize the variability of introduction efficiency, a second reporter gene, firefly luciferase, was cobombarded as an internal standard, and relative activities (GUS/luciferase) were measured. There was a seed-specific β-glucuronidase (GUS) expression, as observed by X-Gluc staining. Compared with the nopaline synthase gene (nos) terminator, the Gy1 terminator enhanced the level of expression in immature seeds, indicating that the terminator region of the glycinin gene is involved in the activation of the gene expression in these seeds. To identify cis-regulatory elements in the glycinin gene upstream sequence, deleted derivatives of the promoter were fused to the luciferase reporter gene. The expression could be measured with a higher accuracy, and constructs were introduced with the internal reporter uidA gene into immature seeds. The results suggest the presence of a positive regulatory element in the −620 to −−380 region of the Gy1 promoter. A deletion which eliminates the legumin box with its RY element led to increased relative activity, suggesting that this box is negatively regulating expression of the seed storage protein gene. Analysis of mutant promoters also suggest that the RY element involves negative regulation in seeds. This quantitative transient expression assay using particle bombardment provides a reliable system for the study of seed-specific gene expression in soybeans.

    Notes: Summary Two MBC-resistant mutants of Neurospora crassa, F914 and F939, were sensitive to diethofencarb at a concentration of 0.1 μg/ml, while the wild-type strain and other MBC-resistant mutants showed resistance to diethofencarb at a concentration of 100 μg/ml. Genetic analysis suggested that the mutations in these two strains were closely linked to the Bml locus which codes for beta-tubulin. When the wild-type strain was transformed by the cloned beta-tubulin gene of the F914 strain, the transformants showed both MBC resistance and diethofencarb sensitivity. On the other hand, the diethofencarb sensitivity of the F914 strain was cancelled by transformation with the wild-type beta-tubulin gene. DNA sequencing of F914 beta-tubulin revealed that glycine was substituted for glutamic acid at position 198 in the F914 strain. Therefore, a single base change in the betatubulin gene was proved to confer both MBC resistance and diethofencarb sensitivity.

    Notes: Summary The uvrD gene of Escherichia coli that control UV sensitivity and spontaneous mutation frequency has been cloned with phage λ as vector. The increased sensitivity to ultraviolet light (UV) of uvrD3, uvrE502, recL152, and pdeB41 mutants, high mutability of uvrD3 and pdeB41 mutants, and conditional lethality of strain TS41 that carried pdeB41, polA1, and sup126 mutations were all suppressed by lysogenization of the mutant cells with λuvrD +. These results were consistent with the idea that the uvrD, uvrE, recL, and pdeB mutations are alleles of the uvrD gene. In addition to the uvD gene, λuvrD + carried the corA gene that controls transport of Mg++, Mn++, and Co++ through the cell membrane. Hybrid plasmids carrying both uvrD and corA genes were also constructed by using pKY2289 as a cloning vehicle. Orientational isomers that carried the same 12.0 kb fragment in the opposite direction were equally efficient in complementing the UvrD- as well as CorA- defects of the transformed host cells, suggesting that the DNA insert contains all the genetic signals needed to express the two gene products. Insertion of the γδ sequence into recombinant plasmids was performed to generate appropriate restriction endonuclease target sites in the cloned DNA fragments.

    Notes: Summary Thirty-five rice (Oryza sativa L.) varieties, including 18 japonica, 5 javanica and 12 indica subspecies and 12 lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) varieties were identified taxonomically, using PCR with originally designed 21 RAPD (Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA) primers and 8 sequence-specific primers, used for amplifying four specific DNA fragments. Use of these primers revealed polymorphisms among varieties in rice and lettuce and facilitates DNA fingerprinting. Dendrograms of both species based on polymorphisms were constructed and genetical relationships were established. In rice, half the number of amplified bands were polymorphic and almost all varieties differentiated. However, differentiation of minor genetic alterations among somaclonal variants or mutants and their mother varieties was not feasible. In L. sativa, 47% of the amplified fragments were polymorphic and all 12 varieties were differentiated. Some of the PCR fragments were variety or type specific, which could be used for indicators for type-selection. The dendrogram obtained showed differentiated clusters of crisphead, leaf and butterhead type, findings in good accord with the classification based on the genetic background.

    Notes: Abstract Mitochondrial and nuclear genomic diversities of 8 carrot (Daucus carota ssp. sativus) varieties, including 6 pure lines and 2 cytoplasmic male sterile (cms) lines, were taxonomically identified using PCR with 19 RAPD primers. Dendrograms based on polymorphisms of both mitochondrial and nuclear genomes were constructed. According to the dendrogram of the mitochondrial genome revealed by RAPD, 4 differentiated clusters formed, in good accordance with the classification based on analyses with restriction enzyme digestion. Two cms lines were grouped into the same cluster, as genetically separated from the others. Thus, the cytoplasm donors of these male sterile lines were thought to be wild carrots. Conversely, RAPD analysis of the nuclear genome for these eight cultivars revealed no evident clusters although some cultivars were of a similar origin or place of cultivation. A correlation between nuclear and mitochondrial dendrograms was absent. RAPD has proved to be a useful tool for identifying mitochondrial and nuclear genomes. This technique will greatly aid in promoting efficient improvement of carrots.

    Notes: Abstract In plant and algal cells, inhibition of the enzyme protoporphyrinogen oxidase (Protox) by the N-phenyl heterocyclic herbicide S-23142 causes massive protoporphyrin IX accumulation, resulting in membrane deterioration and cell lethality in the light. We have identified a 40.4 kb genomic fragment encoding S-23142 resistance by using transformation to screen an indexed cosmid library made from nuclear DNA of the dominant rs-3 mutant of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii. A 10.0 kb HindIII subclone (Hind10) of this insert yields a high frequency of herbicide-resistant transformants, consistent with frequent non-homologous integration of the complete RS-3 gene. A 3.4 kb XhoI subfragment (Xho3.4) yields rare herbicide-resistant transformants, suggestive of homologous integration of a portion of the coding sequence containing the mutation. Molecular and genetic analysis of the transformants localized the rs-3 mutation conferring S-23142 resistance to the Xho3.4 fragment, which was found to contain five putative exons encoding a protein with identity to the C-terminus of the Arabidopsis Protox enzyme. A cDNA clone containing a 1698 bp ORF that encodes a 563 amino acid peptide with 51% and 53% identity to Arabidopsis and tobacco Protox I, respectively, was isolated from a wild-type C. reinhardtii library. Comparison of the wild-type cDNA sequence with the putative exon sequences present in the mutant Xho3.4 fragment revealed a G→A change at 291 in the first putative exon, resulting in a Val→Met substitution at a conserved position equivalent to Val-389 of the wild-type C. reinhardtii cDNA. A sequence comparison of genomic Hind10 fragments from C. reinhardtii rs-3 and its wild-type progenitor CC-407 showed this G→A change at the equivalent position (5751) within exon 10.
