红翎菜科4种海藻ITS和rbcL序列的分子系统学研究

通过PCR扩增基因片段的方法测定了红翎菜科琼枝属(Betaphycus)、卡帕藻属(Kappaphycus)和麒麟菜属(Eucheuma)4种海藻共19株个体的核糖体基因转录间隔区(ITS)(含5.8SrDNA)和核酮糖-1,5-二磷酸羧化酶/加氧酶基因大亚基(rbcL)全长基因序列。其中rbcL全长序列为首次测定,为从蛋白质水平探讨红翎菜科分子系统进化提供了可靠的保证。琼枝属、卡帕藻属、麒麟菜属ITS序列长度分别为1 024、629~669、1 001bp,GC含量在45.6%~52%之间;rbcL序列长度均为1 467bp,GC含量在37.1%~37.6%之间。结合GenBank中现有的红翎菜科海藻ITS和rbcL序列进行系统进化分析,2个片段聚类结果均明显的将所有样品分为琼枝属、卡帕藻属和麒麟菜属3大分支,表现出明显的属间差异。本研究的11株长心卡帕藻根据ITS序列差异分成明显2种类型,推测这2种类型长心卡帕藻的ITS序列差异与其地理环境、无性繁殖时间(代数)和藻体颜色无关。     

长心卡帕藻原生质体分离、培养研究

In this study, protoplasts were successfully isolated from Kappaphycus alvarezii using snail enzymes, abalone enzymes and cellulase. The optimum enzymic ratio was fixed to be 20% of abalone enzyme, 12% of cellulase and the osmotic stabilizer was 2.0 mol/L glucose. The optimum enzymic hydrolysis conditions were found to be dark enzymolysis at 30°C continuing for 4.0 h. The resultant density and yield of protoplasts achieved 32.60×104 mL-1, 65.20×104 g-1 tissue for Kappaphycus alvarezii. Finally, under the temperature of 20°C, light intensity of 1 500–2 000 lx and photoperiod of 12 h/d, two developmental pathways were investigated:(1) callus-like cell mass and regenerated plantlet occurred on protoplast;(2) young shoots and calluslike cell mass occurred in tissue blocks after enzymolysis.
