The results showed that totally 133 bands were amplified, including 111 polymorphic bands, showing a polymorphic rate of 83.46%, which indicated that there are abundant genetic variations among F1 progenies derived from crossing between cultivated sugarcane and E. fu/vus. The average genetic similarity coef- ficients between F1 progenies and female parent Yacheng 89-9, F1 progenies and male parent E. fidvas were 0.67 and 0.44, respectively. UPGMA clustering result of F1 progenies showed that all the progenies were clustered with female parent, suggesting that the genetic material of female parent was predominated in F： proge- nies, which also revealed that the chromosome number of F, progenies was not directly related to the clustering results based on ISSR analysis.展开更多

Most of data are related to PFWs collected on offshore platform after treatment process. The available results showed that the particulate phase had an influence on PFW toxicity. As-suming the toxicity of PFWs treated on platform, the aim of this paper is to study the toxicity of these PFWs after a further filtration treatment carried out in laboratory. For this purpose PFWs were sampled from three natural gas platforms located in the Adriatic Sea (Italy) below treat-ment system. The eco-toxicological bioassays have been conducted on test-organisms be-longing to different trophic levels such as bac-teria, algae, crustaceans and fishes. The PFWs resulted toxic according to an overall assess-ment obtained through the bioassays. Further-more, it has been possible to identify the spe-cies that were more sensitive to the tested PFWs, namely Tigriopus fulvus, Dicentrarchus labrax and Vibrio fischeri. Besides, a chemical char-acterization was reported related to the con-taminants present in the PFWs to go with eco-toxicological assessment. Barium, zinc and manganese showed the most concentrations among the metals and the lower molecular weight components were common among the organic compounds. Some differences among PFWs were observed both for toxicity and chemical composition. The highest toxicity was recorded in PFWs (PFW1 and PFW2) containing the highest concentrations of some metals (Ba, Mn and Zn) and/or BTEX.展开更多

The result showed that most chromosomes of YAU04/14, YAU09/02, YAU09/05, YAU09/26 and YAU09/52 are median region （m） chromosomes, while only a small amount of chromosomes are submedian （sin） chromosomes and median point （M） chromosomes. The karyotype formulae of five experimental materials are 2n = 106 = 98m ＋ 8sm, 2n = 106 - 2M ＋ 104m, 2n = 106 = 4M ＋ 96m ＋ 6sin, 2n = 102 = 2M ＋ 92m ＋ 8sin and 2n = 106 = 4M ＋ 96m ＋ 6sin, respectively. The karyotypes of all materials belong to symmetrical 2B type, indicating that the chromosomes of progenies are primitive.展开更多
