Studies on Variation of DNA Sequences in Arabidopsis thaliana Induced by Low-energy N+ Implantation

低能离子束的诱变效应首先由我国科学家发现并将其广泛应用于育种实践，但是离子注入诱导DNA变异的研究结果主要是以微生物离体质粒DNA为材料获得的，以活体高等生物为材料的研究尚未见报道。 我们以30 keV N+（注入剂量80×1015 ions/cm2）注入拟南芥后获得的稳定突变体T80II为实验材料，对突变体植株进行了RAPD标记，并将T80II和对照部分RAPD特异条带进行克隆测序和DNA序列分析。结果显示，在可分辨的总计397个RAPD条带中，T80II株系中有52个条带表现出差异，包括条带的缺失和增加，条带变异率为13.1%；克隆的T80II序列中，平均每16.8个碱基出现一个碱基变异位点，表现出较高频率的碱基突变。碱基突变的类型包括碱基的颠换、转换、缺失、插入等。在检测到的275个碱基突变中，主要是单碱基置换（97.09%），碱基缺失或者插入的比例较小（2.91%）。在碱基置换中，转换的频率（66.55%）高于颠换的频率（(30.55%)。此外，构成DNA的四种碱基均可以被离子束辐照诱发变异，而且每一种碱基都可以被其它三种碱基所替换，但是胸腺嘧啶（T）的辐射敏感性要高于其它三种碱基。通过分析突变碱基周边序列，对低能N+离子注入拟南芥突变体引发的碱基突变热点进行了讨论。 另外，低能离子注入诱变获得的突变体特异表达基因的克隆方面也没有报道。我们以突变体T80II作为实验材料，用PCR增效的减法杂交技术构建了T80II特异表达的cDNA减法文库，克隆特异表达的cDNA片段，并对其中1个与14-3-3 protein GF14 nu (GRF7) gene有部分同源性、长712 bp的cDNA片段进行了讨论。我们的研究证明通过减法杂交技术克隆低能离子诱发的突变体特异表达的cDNA是可能的，这为低能离子注入技术在分子生物学上的应用开辟了一个新思路

重要经济植物优良种质的评价与应用技术

该项目从不同地区采集了多种扁桃样品，分别利用扁桃自身3863个EST序列和公共数据库中扁桃近缘种桃的10185个EST序列，用于发展扁桃EST-SSR标记，建立扁桃资源DNA指纹图谱。共获得38个栽培种，6个野生种。利用5个SSR标记对94份材料，AFLP对107份材料进行初步分析，发现在我国新疆栽培的大多数巴旦杏品种相互之间没有差异或者差异很小。最后根据地理分布、表型和基因型表现，确定44份扁桃主要种质进行深入评价研究。明确了在我国栽培的数十个扁桃品种的S-基因型，目前根据片段大小，可以鉴别已知的10种S-RNase基因。发现了2个开花时间较晚的扁桃品种，是开展晚花扁桃育种的良好种质材料

JUNO Sensitivity on Proton Decay p→νˉK+p\to \bar\nu K^+ Searches

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this paper, the potential on searching for proton decay in $p\to \bar\nu K^+$ mode with JUNO is investigated.The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits to suppress the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via $p\to \bar\nu K^+$ is 36.9% with a background level of 0.2 events after 10 years of data taking. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years exposure is $9.6 \times 10^{33}$ years, competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel

JUNO sensitivity on proton decay p → ν K + searches*

The Jiangmen Underground Neutrino Observatory (JUNO) is a large liquid scintillator detector designed to explore many topics in fundamental physics. In this study, the potential of searching for proton decay in the $p\to \bar{\nu} K^+$ mode with JUNO is investigated. The kaon and its decay particles feature a clear three-fold coincidence signature that results in a high efficiency for identification. Moreover, the excellent energy resolution of JUNO permits suppression of the sizable background caused by other delayed signals. Based on these advantages, the detection efficiency for the proton decay via $p\to \bar{\nu} K^+$ is 36.9% ± 4.9% with a background level of $0.2\pm 0.05({\rm syst})\pm$$0.2({\rm stat})$ events after 10 years of data collection. The estimated sensitivity based on 200 kton-years of exposure is $9.6 \times 10^{33}$ years, which is competitive with the current best limits on the proton lifetime in this channel and complements the use of different detection technologies
