- Abstract:To investigate the effect of germination on the phenolic compounds and antioxidant activity of pea seeds,three pea varieties (‘16WDS017’,‘16WDS018’ and ‘16WDS021’) were used as materials.The dynamic changes in the growth characteristics (hypocotyl lengths,stem thick,root thick,root length),total phenolic content (TPC),total flavonoid content (TFC) and antioxidant activity (ABTS free radical scavenging capacity,ferric reducing antioxidant power) in different growth stages during germination were investigated.The results showed that the biomass yield of 127.06 g/100 strain and edible fresh weight of 38.93 g/100 strain for ‘16WDS017’ pea sprouts were the highest.Compared with non-germinated pea seeds,the phenolic contents and antioxidant capacity of pea sprouts were significantly improved after germination.With the prolongation of germination time,the content of total phenolic,total flavonoid and antioxidant activities of pea sprouts increased gradually,while the ‘16WDS021’ pea sprouts has higher phenolic contents and antioxidant activity than others.An extremely significant positive correlation between hypocotyl length and root length,phenolic content,antioxidant activity were discovers.The extremely significant positive correlation between total phenolic content,total flavonoid content and antioxidant activity were also revealed.In conclusion,the longer the pea germination time,the more accumulation of phenolic substances and flavonoids.Keywords:pea;germination;growth characteristics;phenolic content;antioxidant activity25|8|1<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
- Abstract:To understand the codon bias of AtGAI in Amaranthus tricolor L.,AtGAI gene codon bias was analyzed by CodonW,SPSS and EMBOSS online program.Neutral drawing,ENc plots and parity rule 2 plot were subsequently used for the exploration of possible factors that affect the formation of the bias.The optimal receptor system was explored by comparing the frequency of the AtGAI gene and the pattern biocodon usage.The results showed that:1) The ENc,CAI,and GC content of AtGAI were respectively 50.75,0.195,and 41.91%,indicating that the codon bias level of AtGAI in A.tricolor L.was low and biased toward the synonymous codons with A or T.2) The CDS sequence and RSCU cluster analysis showed that the preference of AtGAI gene was the closest to that of caryophyllales containing betalain in dicotyledonous plants.3) The codon base composition and correlation analysis showed that the codon bias of GAI gene was mainly affected by the base mutation.4) The codon usage frequency comparison and analysis showed that the yeast eukaryotic expression system was more suitable for heterologous expression of AtGAI gene.The model plants Arabidopsis thaliana,tobacco,tomato and beet can be used as genetic transformation receptors for AtGAI gene,but beet is the most ideal genetic transformation receptor.This study indicated that mutational stress was the main factor in the formation of GAI gene codon bias.It is necessary to optimize and modify AtGAI codon according to the codon bias of the host genome for heterologous expression and genetic transformation analysis.26|10|16<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27

- Abstract:The aim of this study was to study the law of aboveground dry matter accumulation and its distribution model of drip irrigation winter wheat in Southern Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region.Simulation models of relative dry matter accumulation (RDMA) in winter wheat population and individual aboveground parts based on relative growth degree day (RDDT) and distribution dynamics of organs based on distribution index were established by using statistical model technology based on the experimental data of nitrogen regulation in plots.The model was tested by the experimental data of water regulation.The result showed that:After reviving,the dry matter accumulation (DMA) of winter wheat under drip irrigation showed a typical "S" curve trend.Increasing water and nitrogen supply obviously promoted dry matter accumulation of populations and individuals,and the irrigation effect was greater than nitrogen application effect indicating that proper nitrogen application on the basis of ensuring water supply in extreme arid areas in the Northwest margin of Tarim Basin was the key to promote wheat growth.The variation coefficients of each treatment were 3.45%-5.19% in populations and 2.03%-3.91% in individuals,indicating that the population effect was greater than the individual effect.The effect of irrigation water treatment on group and individual DMA was greater than that of nitrogen application,which indicated that ensuring water supply was the first priority in extreme arid areas.Based on the normalized RDDT,the prediction model (MMF) for winter wheat group and individual RDMA after reviving under drip irrigation:GRDMAi=(0.001 2+1.003 2RDDT4.193 6)/(0.012 9+RDDT4.193 6) and SRDMAi=(0.001 2+1.011 3RDDT4.691 1)/(0.0189+RDDT4.691 1),and distribution index model of dry matter in various organs of the above-ground part were established,whose simulation accuracy being 0.988 5-1.027 04 and 0.977 5-1.035 4,respectively.These results showed that the model of dry matter accumulation and distribution in winter wheat populations and individuals based on RDDT and distribution index had good predictability and practicability.Keywords:drip irrigation;winter wheat;dry matter accumulation;partitioning index;model24|10|0<HTML><L-PDF> <Meta-XML>Updated:2024-02-27
