Two cDNAs encoding putative type 1 acyl-CoA: diacylglycerol acyltransferases (DGAT1, EC 2.3.1.20), were cloned from Tetraena mongolica Maxim., an extreme xerophyte with high oil content in the stems. The 1,488-bp and 1,485-bp of the open reading frame (ORF) of the two cDNAs, designated as TmDGAT1a and TmDGAT1b, were both predicted to encode proteins of 495 and 494 amino acids, respectively. Southern blot analysis revealed that TmDGAT1a and TmDGAT1b both had low copy numbers in the T. mongolica genome. In addition to ubiquitous expression with different intensity in different tissues, including stems, leaves and roots, TmDGAT1a and TmDGAT1b, were found to be strongly induced by high salinity, drought and osmotic stress, resulting in a remarkable increase of triacylglycerol (TAG) accumulation in T. mongolica plantlets. TmDGAT1a and TmDGAT1b activities were confirmed in the yeast H1246 quadruple mutant (DGA1, LRO1, ARE1, ARE2) by restoring DGAT activity of the mutant host to produce TAG. Overexpression of TmDGAT1a and TmDGAT1b in soybean hairy roots as well as in T. mongolica calli both resulted in an increase in oil content (ranging from 37% to 108%), accompanied by altered fatty acid profiles.

摘 要:新《英语课程标准》规定,初中生在毕业前除教材外课外阅读量应累计达到15万字以上。阅读既是学生获得语言知识的平台,又是培养学生自主学习能力的一种方法,同时也是学生提高文化底蕴和加强自身修养的重要途径。因此,阅读是语言学习中的重要环节,在很大程度上影响听、说、读和写等各方面的水平的提高。重视对初中学生英语课外阅读策略的指导并在英语教学中渗透学习策略的培养和训练具有重要意义。  关键词:英语
初中生以抽象为主的认知方式离不开形象思维和形象记忆的协助,在英语复习教学中,思维导图正好起到化繁为简、促成理解与记忆的作用.本文主要探讨思维导图运用于初中英语语法

摘 要:高中英语教学中的一项重要任务就是培养学生在日常生活中获取英语信息及处理信息的能力,而这种能力的培养,通常需要通过培养深层阅读能力这一途径才能够实现。因此,如何培养学生不断提高自己的阅读能力成为高中英语教学中的一项重要工作。本文通过对“深层阅读能力”的定义开始分析,重点论述了应该如何培养学生的深层阅读能力。  关键词:高中英语;英语教学;深层阅读  阅读这一部分在高中英语中所占的地位是非
