  • Evaluation of Reference Genes for Normalizing RT-Qpcr in Leaves
    Sun et al. Plant Methods (2019) 15:31 https://doi.org/10.1186/s13007-019-0415-y Plant Methods RESEARCH Open Access Evaluation of reference genes for normalizing RT-qPCR in leaves and suspension cells of Cephalotaxus hainanensis under various stimuli Huapeng Sun1, Xuefei Jiang2, Mengli Sun2, Hanqing Cong1* and Fei Qiao1* Abstract Background: Reverse transcription quantitative real-time PCR (RT-qPCR) is a widely used approach for investigat- ing gene expression levels in plants because of its high reproducibility, sensitivity, accuracy and rapidness. Evaluation of reference genes for normalizing RT-qPCR data is a necessary step, especially in new plant varieties. Cephalotaxus hainanensis is a precious medicinal plant belonging to the family of Cephalotaxaceae and no RT-qPCR studies have been reported on it. Results: In this study, 9 candidate reference genes were selected from the transcriptome data of C. hainanensis; 3 sta- tistical algorithms (geNorm, NormFinder, BestKeeper) were applied to evaluate their expression stabilities through 180 samples under 6 stimuli treatments in leaves and leaf-derived suspension cultured cells; a comprehensive stabilities ranking was also performed by RefFinder. The results showed that suitable reference genes in C. hainanensis should be selected for normalization relative to diferent experimental sets. 18S showed a higher stability than other candidate reference genes which ranked at the top two suitable genes under all experimental setups in this study. Conclusion: This study is the frst to evaluate the stability of reference genes in C. hainanensis and supply an impor- tant foundation to use the RT-qPCR for an accurate and far-reaching gene expression analysis in C.

    Jessica Shand Happy, Sad, Curious, Scared . Which Are You? Children's Emotional Response to Musical Analysis of Spermatophyte Divergence to Expedite Identification of Novel Drug Candidates Plant pharmacology has long been utilized to subdue, and even alleviate, various medical conditions. This research hypothesized that evolutionary topologies could expedite drug discovery by genetically comparing plant species of known medical value with those of unknown medical value. Species of interest were Taxus brevifolia, Cephalotaxus hainanensis, and Taxus wallichiana (Taxaceae); Digitalis lanata (Plantaginaceae); and Cinchona calisaya and Galium odoratum (Rubiaceae). These have been natural precursors for, or natural providers of, compounds treating cancer, malaria, thrombosis, and other diseases. Taxa were selected to represent each genus within the families listed above, with inclusion based upon known medicinal use or otherwise data availability and recency. For the family Taxaceae, each species was included; for Plantaginaceae and Rubiaceae, one representative was chosen for every thirty species per genus. The genes used to analyze divergence were the maturase K, ribulose-1,5- bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase large subunit, and the NADH dehydrogenase F. Sequences were obtained from the GenBank® online database, aligned by MUSCLE, and phylogenetically analyzed with PAUP. Phylogenies examined both individual and concatenated matrices via heuristic searches with TBR branch swapping. Nodal support ranged from moderate to high; between 50% to 100% of bootstrap replicates supported any given monophyletic group. Retention and consistency indexes, calculated by Mesquite, evidenced little homoplasy and fairly parsimoniously informative characters. Homology existed between species with similar known medical use, suggesting that the phylogenies were fair indicators of medicinal value. Moreover, homology between species of unique known and unknown medical value suggested that several genera be further investigated for drug candidacy.

Page 1/22 Abstract Background: Home garden is identied as a kind of small-scale land-use system which is used to manage and cultivate useful plants by local people, and home gardens can provide various plant products and services. Investigating home gardens was regarded as an effective way to understand the biodiversity related local knowledge and culture of native people in Ethnobiology and Ethnoecology. Home garden is important in less developed and remote areas. The grand canyon of Yarlung Tsangpo is designed as one of the biodiversity hotspots of China, and it is one of the most remote region of China, because of the rough trac conditions.

  • Antimicrobial and Antitumor Activity and Diversity of Endophytic Fungi from Traditional Chinese Medicinal Plant Cephalotaxus Hainanensis Li

Endophytes from Cephalotaxus hainanensis Li, an important source of anti-leukemia drugs, have not been widely explored. In this study, 265 endophytic fungal isolates from C. hainanensis Li were screened for antimicrobial activities against tilapia, banana, rice, and rape and for antitumor activities against human leukemia cell lines (K562, NB4, and HL-60). Diversity was also analyzed. The results showed that 17.7% of the endophytic fungi had antimicrobial activities against at least three different test microbes, and activity against Fusarium oxysporum RKY102 was the highest at 15.8%. Cytotoxicity against at least one tumor cell line tested was observed in 18.5% of the endophytic fungi; with the highest value of 10.6% against K562. The endophytic fungal strains also showed relatively high activities against K562, NB4, and HL-60 while relatively fewer strains were cytotoxic against the human hepatic Hep-G2 and colon LoVo cancer cell lines.

  • De Novo Characterization of a Cephalotaxus Hainanensis Transcriptome and Genes Related to Paclitaxel Biosynthesis
    De Novo Characterization of a Cephalotaxus hainanensis Transcriptome and Genes Related to Paclitaxel Biosynthesis Fei Qiao1., Hanqing Cong1*, Xuefei Jiang2*., Rongxiang Wang1, Junmei Yin1, Dan Qian2, Zhunian Wang1, Peter Nick3 1 Key Laboratory of Crop Gene Resources and Germplasm Enhancement in Southern China, Ministry of Agriculture/Tropical Crops Genetic Resources Institute, Chinese Academy of Tropical Agricultural Sciences, Danzhou, Hainan, China, 2 Key Laboratory of Protection and Development Utilization of Tropical Crop Germplasm Resources (Hainan University), Ministry of Education/College of Horticulture and Landscape Architecture, Hainan University, Haikou, Hainan, China, 3 Molecular Cell Biology, Botanical Institute, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology, Karlsruhe, Germany Abstract Cephalotaxus hainanensis, an endangered plant, is known to contain several metabolites with anti-cancer activity. Despite its clinical impact, the alkaloid metabolism of this species has remained largely uncharacterized. The potential of Cephalotaxus for metabolic engineering of medically interesting compounds has, so far, not been exploited, due to the almost complete lack of molecular information. We have therefore performed a high throughput RNA-seq analysis and assembled the transcriptome de novo. Raw reads comprising 4.3 Gbp were assembled de novo into 39,416 unique sequences (unigenes) with a mean length of 1,089.8 bp and a total assembly size of 45.8 Mbp, which equals to more than 50 times the number of Cephalotaxaceae sequences currently deposited in the GenBank (as of August 2013). As proof of principle for medically interesting pathways, gene fragments related to paclitaxel biosynthesis were searched and detected. To verify their functionality, the metabolic product paclitaxel, and its precursor baccatin III, were identified in the leaves of C.
