Advances in molecular biological studies of the mangrove Kandelia obovata, Sheue, Liu & Yong

摘要:

秋茄Kandelia obovata Sheue, Liu & Yong是分布于热带、亚热带海岸带与河口潮间带的常绿红树植物，在海岸生态系统中具有重要的功能和价值。文中综述了近年来国内外关于秋茄分子生物学方面的研究进展，主要包括基于分子标记的秋茄亲缘地理关系与遗传多样性研究，基于双向电泳技术的蛋白质组学研究，以及逆境胁迫响应基因的克隆与功能验证研究；最后还结合当前研究现状展望了秋茄分子生物学未来研究工作的方向。

Abstract:

Kandelia obovata Sheue, Liu & Yong, a mangrove species which distributed in tropical, subtropical coastal and estuarine intertidal, has important ecological functions in coastal ecosystems. Here, we reviewed several aspects of the recent research progress in molecular biological studies of K. obovata. We focused the phylogeography and genetic diversity of this species by several types of molecular markers, proteome analyses based on two-dimensional electrophoresis platform accomplished for this species, and functional genes isolated under non-biotic stress environment. Finally, based on the current research progress, we proposed some orientations for future molecular biological research on K. obovata.
