[0098] Example 4: Compare the cell wall decomposition efficiency with / without Triton X-100

[0099] This example aims to explore the role of Triton X-100 in the enzymatic hydrolysate. By comparing the decomposition efficiency of the enzymatic hydrolysate with and without Triton X-100 on the cell wall of oat root tip tissue, the necessity of Triton X-100 in this sample treatment method is further verified.

[0100] Experimental materials and methods:

[0101] Root tip pretreatment (S1):

[0102] Take the root tip tissue after germination of oat seeds, and the treatment conditions are the same as those in Example 2.

[0103] Enzymatic hydrolysis treatment (S2, two groups with and without Triton X-100):

[0104] Group containing Triton X-100: The composition of the enzymatic hydrolysate is the same as that in Example 2, that is, it contains 1 mL of citrate buffer (pH 5.0), 0.04 g / mL of cellulase, 0.02 g / mL of pectinase and 0.1% Triton X-100.

[0105] Group without Triton X-100: Remove Triton X-100 from the enzymatic hydrolysate, and the other components are the same as those in Example 2.

[0106] Cut 1.5 mm of the fixed root tip tissue from both groups and immerse them in the corresponding enzymatic hydrolysate respectively, and perform enzymatic hydrolysis at 36.5 °C for 35 minutes.

[0107] Gradient dehydration (S3):

[0108] After enzymatic hydrolysis, the root tip tissues of both groups are sequentially dehydrated with double-distilled water, 70% ethanol, 95% ethanol and absolute ethanol in gradients, and each treatment lasts for 4 minutes.

[0109] Section preparation and drying (S4):

[0110] Place the dehydrated root tip tissues of both groups on glass slides respectively, and drop the same improved fixing solution (a mixed solution of methanol and glacial acetic acid with a volume ratio of 3:1, containing 0.1% DTT and also containing 0.05% NaN3).

[0111] Gently press the cover glass after slightly heating with a flame, and leave it to dry at room temperature for 18 hours.

[0112] Observation and comparison:

[0113] Observe the decomposition of the cell wall of the root tip tissues of both groups under the microscope, and record and compare indicators such as the integrity of the cell wall, the degree of chromosome dispersion and the background clarity.

[0114] The experimental table is as follows:

[0115]

[0116] Note:

[0117] The column of "Cell wall decomposition" is used to record the degree of cell wall decomposition. For example, "Completely decomposed" means the cell wall is completely decomposed, while "Incompletely decomposed" means there is still some cell wall residue.

[0118] The column of "Chromosome dispersion degree" is used to describe the dispersion state of chromosomes. For example, "Good" means the chromosomes are evenly dispersed and easy to observe, while "Uneven" means the chromosomes are unevenly distributed and there is an aggregation phenomenon.

[0119] The column of "Background clarity" is used to evaluate the clarity of the background during observation. For example, "Clear" means the background is clean and there is no interference, while "Blurry" means there are impurities or a blurry phenomenon in the background.

[0120] Experimental results and analysis:

[0121] The group containing TritonX-100: The cell wall is decomposed more thoroughly, the chromosomes are dispersed well, the background is clear, and it is easy to observe.

[0122] The group without TritonX-100: The cell wall is incompletely decomposed, and there is still cell wall residue in some areas, resulting in uneven chromosome dispersion, a relatively blurry background, and greater difficulty in observation.

[0123] Example 5: Orthogonal experiment of N2O pressure and treatment time

[0124] Experimental purpose

[0125] Through orthogonal experimental design, explore the optimal parameter combination for the chromosome dispersion effect of oat root tips within the range of 0.5 - 0.8 MPa N2O gas pressure and 2 - 3 hours of treatment time, and verify the optimization effect of the pretreatment steps.

[0126] Experimental design

[0127] Experimental factors and levels

[0128] Factor 1: N2O pressure levels: 0.5 MPa, 0.6 MPa, 0.7 MPa, 0.8 MPa

[0129] Factor 2: Treatment time levels: 2 hours, 2.5 hours, 3 hours

[0130] Orthogonal table selection: L 12 (4×3 full-factor design), with a total of 12 groups of experiments, and each group is repeated 3 times.

[0131] Experimental grouping

[0132]

[0133]

[0134] Experimental procedures

[0135] Sample preparation (S1)

[0136] Select oat seeds of the same batch and germinate them until the root tip length reaches 1.5 - 2.0 cm.

[0137] Take 30 root tips for each group and evenly divide them into 3 replicate groups (10 root tips for each group).

[0138] N2O pretreatment (S2)

[0139] Place the root tips in a closed pressure vessel, introduce N2O gas to the target pressure (0.5 - 0.8 MPa), and keep the temperature constant at 25°C.

[0140] Treat according to the set time (2 / 2.5 / 3 hours).

[0141] Fixation and subsequent processing (S3 - S5)

[0142] After pretreatment, immediately transfer to precooled (4°C) glacial acetic acid - ethanol fixative (1:3) and fix for 20 minutes.

[0143] Subsequent steps are carried out normally:

[0144] Enzymolysis treatment: Cut 1 - 2 mm of the root tip meristem and immerse it in the enzymolysis solution (1 mL of citrate buffer, 0.03 - 0.05 g / mL cellulase, 0.01 - 0.03 g / mL pectinase, 0.1% Triton X - 100), and enzymolyze at 35 - 38°C for 30 - 40 minutes.

[0145] Gradient dehydration: Dehydrate with double - distilled water, 70% ethanol, 95% ethanol, and absolute ethanol in gradient, 3 - 5 minutes for each step.

[0146] Section preparation and drying: Drop the modified fixative (methanol: glacial acetic acid = 3:1, containing 0.1% DTT, 0.05% NaN3), slightly heat with a flame and dry at room temperature for 12 - 24 hours.

[0147] Staining and observation: Pretreat with proteinase K (10 μg / mL) for 5 - 8 minutes, stain with Giemsa stain for 10 - 15 minutes, and observe under a microscope.

[0148] Evaluation indicators

[0149] Chromosome dispersion index (DI)

[0150] Randomly select 50 metaphase cells under the microscope and count the proportion of chromosomes with good dispersion (no overlap, clear morphology).

[0151] Formula:

[0152] Chromosome damage rate

[0153] Statistically analyze the proportion of chromosomes with breaks, adhesions or deformations.

[0154] Proportion of analyzable cells

[0155] Proportion of cells available for effective karyotype analysis (≥80% chromosome dispersion).

[0156] Data analysis and results

[0157] Main effect analysis

[0158] N2O pressure:

[0159] The DI of the 0.7 - 0.8 MPa group was significantly higher than that of the 0.5 - 0.6 MPa group, but the chromosome damage rate increased (>8%) at 0.8 MPa.

[0160] Treatment time:

[0161] The DI was highest after 3 hours of treatment (average 85%), but there was no significant difference between 2.5 hours and 3 hours.

[0162] Interaction analysis

[0163] 0.7 MPa × 2.5 hours: DI = 88.5%, damage rate = 4.2%, which is the optimal balance point.

[0164] 0.8 MPa × 3 hours: DI = 89.1%, but the damage rate reached 9.7%, which is not recommended.

[0165] Experimental conclusion

[0166] Verified by orthogonal experiments, the reasonable range of N2O pretreatment parameters (0.5 - 0.8 MPa, 2 - 3 hours) can be further optimized to a pressure of 0.6 - 0.7 MPa and a treatment time of 2.5 - 3 hours. This combination can significantly reduce the damage rate (≤5%) while ensuring the chromosome dispersion effect (DI≥85%), and is suitable for efficient karyotype analysis of hexaploid oats.

[0167] Example 6:

[0168] Experimental design: Verification of the protective effect of DTT on the structural integrity of chromosomes

[0169] Experimental purpose

[0170] Verify the protective effect of DTT (dithiothreitol) on the morphological integrity of chromosomes by observing the chromosomal structural differences of oats treated with modified fixative containing / without DTT through scanning electron microscopy (SEM).

[0171] Experimental grouping

[0172]

[0173] Note: For both groups of experiments, the pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis and dehydration parameters of Example 2 were used (N2O pressure 0.65 MPa, treatment time 2.5 hours), and only the fixative composition was different.

[0174] Experimental procedures

[0175] Sample preparation

[0176] Treat the oat root tips according to the method of Example 2 until the dehydration step (S3).

[0177] Divide the dehydrated root tips into two groups, and prepare slides using fixatives containing DTT (experimental group) and without DTT (control group) respectively.

[0178] Scanning electron microscope sample treatment

[0179] Critical point drying: Place the glass slide in a critical point dryer, replace ethanol with liquid CO2, and dry to a constant humidity.

[0180] Gold sputtering treatment: Use an ion sputtering instrument (model: JEOL JFC-1600) to sputter a 5 nm thick gold film to enhance conductivity.

[0181] SEM observation and data collection

[0182] Use a scanning electron microscope (model: Hitachi SU8010) to observe the surface morphology of chromosomes at an acceleration voltage of 10 kV.

[0183] Randomly select 20 well-dispersed chromosomes from each group and measure the following parameters:

[0184] Chromosome length (μm)

[0185] Chromosome width (μm)

[0186] Surface smoothness (scored on a scale of 0-5, 0 = severely wrinkled, 5 = smooth and flat)

[0187] Breakage rate (number of broken chromosomes / total number of observations × 100%)

[0188] Experimental results (table)

[0189]

[0190] Note: Data are expressed as mean ± standard deviation, n = 60 (20 chromosomes per group × 3 replicates).

[0191] Analysis of key results

[0192] Chromosome morphological integrity

[0193] Experimental group: The chromosome length and width were significantly greater than those of the control group, indicating that DTT maintains the chromosome in a stretched state by reducing disulfide bonds and reduces the contraction effect caused by glacial acetic acid.

[0194] Control group: The chromosome surface was significantly shrunken (smoothness score 2.1), and the length was shortened by approximately 18.5%.

[0195] Difference in breakage rate

[0196] The breakage rate in the DTT group was only 6.7%, significantly lower than 23.5% in the control group, proving that DTT can reduce mechanical damage to chromosomes during fixation.

[0197] Comparison of surface structure

[0198] SEM images showed that the edges of the chromosomes in the experimental group were clear and the chromatin fibers were arranged tightly; obvious cracks and fragments were visible on the surface of the control group.

[0199] Experimental conclusion

[0200] The improved fixing solution with 0.1% DTT can significantly improve the structural integrity of chromosomes, specifically manifested as: the chromosome length and width increase, being closer to the true physiological morphology;

[0201] The surface smoothness increased by 60% and the breakage rate decreased by 71.5%. This result verifies the technical necessity of DTT, which provides a high-precision sample basis for karyotype analysis by maintaining the stability of the chromosome ultrastructure.
