温度上升提高了黄瓜叶片线粒体交替氧化酶呼吸途径对光破坏防御作用的贡献

本文以黄瓜为实验材料,研究了不同温度下植物叶片交替氧化酶呼吸途径(AOX途径)对光破坏防御贡献的差异及其机理。结果表明,低温不仅抑制了AOX途径的活性,还抑制了"Malate-OAA"穿梭,导致光合作用产生的过剩还原力NAD(P)H的消耗减少,低温下抑制AOX途径后没有加重叶片光抑制;而高温下AOX途径活性的上调有效消耗了通过"Malate-OAA"穿梭机制转运而来的过剩还原力,缓解了光合电子传递链的过度还原,并且AOX途径受抑后,叶片光抑制显著增加。上述结果表明AOX途径在低温下对光破坏防御的贡献受到明显限制,而在高温下AOX途径的上调增加了其对光破坏防御的贡献。     

NaCl胁迫增强杂交酸模（Rumex K．1）幼苗叶片的米勒过氧化反应

摘要：200mmol／LNaCl胁迫对杂交酸模(Rumex K-1)幼苗叶片光系统Ⅱ最大光化学效率(Fv／Frn)没有影响,但是显著降低了光合速率和气孔导度,导致细胞间隙CO2浓度和叶绿素含量增加。同时,盐胁迫引起活性氧清除关键酶超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(APX)活性上升。在光合作用诱导过程中,无论是对照叶片还是盐胁迫叶片,米勒过氧化反应均维持一部分光合电子流。光合作用达到稳定状态后,盐胁迫叶片仍能够通过米勒过氧化反应维持部分光合电子流。强光下,低氧(2％)抑制米勒过氧化反应对对照叶片光抑制程度没有明显影响,而显著增加盐胁迫叶片的光抑制程度。据上述结果推测：盐胁迫下米勒过氧化反应的增强有助于消耗过剩的激发电子,从而降低强光下杂交酸模幼苗叶片的光抑制程度。     

NaCl胁迫增强杂交酸模(Rumex K-1)幼苗叶片的米勒过氧化反应

200 mmol/L NaCl胁迫对杂交酸模(Rumex K-1)幼苗叶片光系统Ⅱ最大光化学效率(Fy/Fm)没有影响,但是显著降低了光合速率和气孔导度,导致细胞间隙CO2浓度和叶绿素含量增加.同时,盐胁迫引起活性氧清除关键酶超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(APX)活性上升.在光合作用诱导过程中,无论是对照叶片还是盐胁迫叶片,米勒过氧化反应均维持一部分光合电子流.光合作用达到稳定状态后,盐胁迫叶片仍能够通过米勒过氧化反应维持部分光合电子流.强光下,低氧(2%)抑制米勒过氧化反应对对照叶片光抑制程度没有明显影响,而显著增加盐胁迫叶片的光抑制程度.据上述结果推测:盐胁迫下米勒过氧化反应的增强有助于消耗过剩的激发电子,从而降低强光下杂交酸模幼苗叶片的光抑制程度.     

低温光抑制恢复过程中黄瓜叶片PSⅡ活性及其电子传递对PSⅠ的影响

以“津春4号”黄瓜为试材,通过测定黄瓜叶片叶绿素荧光快速诱导动力学曲线和对820 nm光的吸收曲线,结合叶绿素荧光淬灭分析,研究低温光胁迫(4℃,200 μmol·m-2·s-1)6 h后,黄瓜叶片在常温(25℃)不同光强(0、15、200μmol·m-2·s-1)下PS Ⅰ和PS Ⅱ活性的恢复,以及恢复过程中PS Ⅰ与PS Ⅱ的相互作用.结果表明:低温光胁迫6h后,PS Ⅰ和PS Ⅱ发生不同程度的光抑制.在常温恢复阶段,PS Ⅱ活性快速恢复且对光强不敏感;PS Ⅰ活性在弱光下(15 μmol·m-2·s-1)快速恢复,在较强光(200 μmol·m-2·s-1)下恢复较慢.在低温光抑制恢复过程中,常温下PS Ⅱ活性恢复较快可能导致PS Ⅱ向PS Ⅰ的线性电子传递过快,进而抑制PS Ⅰ的活性恢复.因此,在进行黄瓜抗冷性育种时,不应该仅追求较高的PS Ⅱ抗性和较快的PS Ⅱ恢复速度,还应该注意两个光系统活性的协调.在生产中,应当在低温逆境发生及其之后较长一段时间内采取措施降低叶表面光照强度,以利于对植株光合机构的保护和光合活性的恢复.     

光强对番茄叶片低温光抑制恢复的影响

经弱光 (6 0 μmol·m- 2 ·s- 1 )和 5℃低温处理 3d的番茄叶片Fv Fm和ΦPSⅡ下降 ,F0 没有变化 ;随后放在弱光 (6 0 μmol·m- 2 ·s- 1 )和 2 5℃条件下 ,番茄叶片的Fv Fm和ΦPSⅡ可以恢复 ,而在强光 (80 0 μmol·m- 2 ·s- 1 )下恢复的植株Fv Fm和ΦPSⅡ则显著下降 ,F0 也明显增加。恢复 3d后 ,弱光下恢复的植株光合作用可恢复到对照水平的 72 .1% ,而强光下恢复的植株光合作用仍维持在很低的水平

测定出 2 5 0 μmol·m-2 ·s-1光强下培养的整株拟南芥连体叶片的光合作用在光强为 80 0 μmol·m-2 ·s-1左右达到光饱和 ,其离体叶片光合作用对光强响应的结果与此类似。自然条件下生长的珊瑚树连体与离体叶片光合作用均在光强约为 10 0 0 μmol·m-2 ·s-1下达到饱和 ,这验证所测得的拟南芥连体和离体叶片光合作用光响应的结果是正确的     

弱光对樱桃叶片膜脂过氧化的影响

以无性繁殖的一年生莱阳矮樱桃 (PrunuspseudocerasusL .“Laiyang”)幼苗为试材 ,研究了弱光对樱桃叶片膜脂过氧化的影响。结果表明 :随着光照强度的减弱 ,樱桃叶片的净光合速率降低 ;而MDA含量和膜保护酶活性在弱光下也发生明显变化 ,其中MDA含量和POD活性上升 ;CAT活性下降 ;SOD在 36 6 μmol·m-2 ·s-1和 5 33.8μmol·m-2 ·s-1光强下活性升高 ,而在 2 2 8.8μmol·m-2 ·s-1和 83.9μmol·m-2 ·s-1光强下活性下降。     

干旱胁迫对沙冬青叶片防御光破坏机制的影响

沙冬青 (Ammopiptanthusmongolicus (Maxim .)Chengf.)是生长在沙漠及干旱荒漠地区的常绿灌木。在夏季 ,其叶片经常遭受中午强光 (超过 15 0 0 μmol·m-2 ·s-1)胁迫 ,出现明显的光抑制现象。我们利用便携式光合测定系统 (CIRAS_1)和脉冲调制荧光仪 (MFMS_2 )测定了自然形成的干旱胁迫条件下沙冬青光合和荧光参数的日变化 ,主要探讨了干旱胁迫对沙冬青叶片防御强光破坏机制的影响。结果表明 ,正常水分和干旱胁迫下 ,沙冬青叶片的净光合速率 (Pn)、PSⅡ最大光化学效率 (Fv/Fm)和PSⅡ非环式电子传递效率 (ΦPSⅡ)在中午都明显降低 ;相对正常水分条件而言 ,干旱胁迫下初始荧光 (Fo)先下降后上升 ,荧光的非光化学淬灭 (NPQ)上升较快并在一定水平上维持不变。由此推断晴天中午沙冬青叶片在正常水分条件下主要采取依赖叶黄素循环的热耗散机制 ;而在干旱胁迫条件下主要采取了依赖叶黄素循环的热耗散和PSⅡ反应中心可逆失活两种保护机制。     

AOX途径在苹果离体叶片失水过程中的光破坏防御作用

为探讨线粒体交替氧化酶呼吸途径（AOX途径）对水分胁迫下苹果叶片光破坏的防御作用,以苹果砧木平邑甜茶离体叶片为试材,通过AOX抑制剂水杨基羟肟酸(SHAM)处理,同时测定苹果叶片叶绿素荧光诱导动力学曲线和820 nm光的吸收曲线,结合JIP test分析,探讨了失水过程中AOX途径的光保护作用。结果表明：水分胁迫条件下,平邑甜茶叶片的AOX活性显著增加, SHAM抑制AOX途径后,叶片发生更严重的光抑制;在失水胁迫条件下,平邑甜茶叶片PSⅡ原初光化学反应的量子产额（TRo/ABS）、PSⅡ捕获的电子从Q_A传递到Q_B的概率（ETo/TRo）下降,PSⅡ单位反应中心吸收的光能（ABS/RC）上升,而PSⅠ的最大氧化还原活性（ΔI/I_o）未受影响;SHAM抑制AOX途径后,TRo/ABS和ETo/TRo进一步下降,ABS/RC进一步上升,同时引起了ΔI/I_o的下降。研究认为,水分胁迫条件下,平邑甜茶叶片PSⅡ发生了光抑制,而SHAM处理在加重PSⅡ光抑制的同时,引起了PSⅠ的光抑制;叶片失水过程中,AOX呼吸上调是平邑甜茶叶片的重要光破坏防御机制,特别是对PSⅠ具有重要的保护作用。     

高温胁迫下不同光强对‘赤霞珠’葡萄PSII活性及恢复的影响

本文研究了高温与不同光强结合处理对‘赤霞珠’葡萄叶片PSII活性及恢复的影响。结果表明,高温黑暗处理（40℃,0μmaol·m-2．s-1）导致叶片PSII最大光化学效率（Fv/Fm）、反应中心吸收的光能用于电子传递的量子产额（ψEo）与单位反应中心光能的传递（ETo/RC）降低明显,且无恢复趋势,K点相对荧光（Vk）、单位反应中心光能的吸收（ABS／RC）与捕获（TRo／RC）显著升高。高温弱光处理（40℃,200μmol·m-2．s-1）后的叶片PSII活性明显恢复,ETo／RC降低明显,TRo/RC无显著变化。高温强光（40℃,1600μmol·m-2．S-1）处理导致单位面积有活性反应中心数量（RC/CSm）抑制程度最大,恢复程度较低。实验结果说明,高温处理下黑暗对葡萄PSII功能活性及恢复均会造成抑制,而弱光可以显著缓解高温对葡萄叶片的胁迫作用,并促进PSII的恢复,强光导致胁迫下的PSII功能抑制最明显。     

Study of Diurnal Changes in Photosynthetic Rate and Quantum Efficiency of Grapevine Leaves and Their Utilization in Canopy Management

Photosynthetic rate and quatum efficiency of grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. cv. Sauvignon blanc) leaves were measured under the field with ample soil water supply, and in phytotron with ample supply of water and mineral nutrients, constant air humidity and CO2 concentration, and optimum air temperature, respectively. Under field conditions CO2 assimilation quantum efficiency of leaves reached its maximum in the morning, which was followed by continuous decrease and midday depression. The leaves intercepting more light energy in the morning showed a higher quantum efficiency. Those leaves subjected continuously to strong irradiance exhibited a more obvious and longer midday depression. Reduction of leaf light interception around midday could reduce midday depression. Shaded leaves had a higher quantum efficiency than leaves under direct sunlight. The diurnal changes in photosynthetic rate and quantum efficiency of leaves were shown to be closely related to the variations in mesophyll resistance to CO2. In phytotron experiments the photosynthetic quantum efficiency of leaves was reduced after a certain period of illumination not only at 1200 μmol · m-2 · s-1 PFD, higher than the saturating light of vine leaves (≈1000 μmol · m-2 · s-1), which was caused by "photoinhibition”, but also at 800 and 200μmol · m-2 · s-1, which was similar to "photoinhibition”. But photosynthetic quantum efficiency of leaves exposed continuously to a very weak PFD (100 μmol · m -2 · s-1) remained contant. The diurnal changes in mesophyll resistance to CO2 of vine leaves could be partly related to photoinhibition. It is considered that, under field conditions without soil water limitation, midday depression of vine leaf photosynthesis could be a result of an increase of the mesophyll resistance induced by multiple effects of strong light, high temperature and low humidity. A higher light interception by canopy plane in the morning may be advantageous to exploit higher photosynthetic potentiality of leaves, but a lower light interception in the middle of day may reduce midday depression. The north-south orientation plane can provide optimum light regime and improve photosynthetic environment in vineyards.     

Mitochondrial alternative oxidase pathway protects plants against photoinhibition by alleviating inhibition of the repair of photodamaged PSII through preventing formation of reactive oxygen species in Rumex K-1 leaves

The purpose of this study was to explore how the mitochondrial AOX (alternative oxidase) pathway alleviates photoinhibition in Rumex K-1 leaves. Inhibition of the AOX pathway decreased the initial activity of NADP-malate dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.82, NADP-MDH) and the pool size of photosynthetic end electron acceptors, resulting in an over-reduction of the photosystem I (PSI) acceptor side. The over-reduction of the PSI acceptor side further inhibited electron transport from the photosystem II (PSII) reaction centers to the PSII acceptor side as indicated by an increase in V(J) (the relative variable fluorescence at J-step), causing an imbalance between photosynthetic light absorption and energy utilization per active reaction center (RC) under high light, which led to the over-excitation of the PSII reaction centers. The over-reduction of the PSI acceptor side and the over-excitation of the PSII reaction centers enhanced the accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS), which inhibited the repair of the photodamaged PSII. However, the inhibition of the AOX pathway did not change the level of photoinhibition under high light in the presence of the chloroplast D1 protein synthesis inhibitor chloramphenicol, indicating that the inhibition of the AOX pathway did not accelerate the photodamage to PSII directly. All these results suggest that the AOX pathway plays an important role in the protection of plants against photoinhibition by minimizing the inhibition of the repair of the photodamaged PSII through preventing the over-production of ROS.     

光照强度对小麦苗期草酸氧化酶活性的影响

以小麦品种‘烟优361’(Triticum aestivum L.cv.Yanyou 361)萌发4 d幼苗为试验材料,分析了草酸氧化酶(OxO)在幼苗中的定位和表达,以及光照强度处理对小麦幼苗OxO活性的影响。实验结果显示,萌发后小麦幼苗的OxO分布在子叶与根的连接处和成熟的根中,其活性随光照强度的增加而下降;200μmol.m-2.s-1的强光显著抑制了OxO活性,该处理培养4 d幼苗的OxO活性仅为40μmol.m-2.s-1光照培养条件下的18.7%;强光还缩短OxO在苗期的表达时间,抑制了OxO的mRNA表达量。同时,光照强度还能影响小麦幼苗中H2O2的含量,200μmol.m-2.s-1处理幼苗的H2O2的含量显著下降,其培养4 d的幼苗H2O2含量仅为40μmol.m-2.s-1光照强度培养条件下的18.0%。研究发现,光照强度可通过调节OxO的活性和表达量来控制H2O2的产量,从而影响幼苗的生长发育。     

Effect of Reducing Nitric Oxide in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Rumex</Emphasis> K-1 Leaves on the Photoprotection of Photosystem II Under High Temperature with Strong Light

The purpose of this study was to explore the effect of reducing nitric oxide (NO) in Rumex K-1 leaves on the photoprotection of photosystem II (PSII) under high temperature with strong light. Reducing the content of NO in Rumex K-1 leaves significantly aggravated the PSII photoinhibition and net degradation of D1 protein under high temperature with strong light, but not under high temperature in the darkness. The reduction of NO remarkably inhibited the electron transport of PSII in the leaves under high temperature and strong light, which resulted in an increase in excitation pressure and an over-accumulation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The over-accumulation of ROS further damaged PSII. However, when the synthesis of D1 protein was inhibited, the D1 protein content and PSII activity were no longer influenced by reducing NO content in the leaves. The reduction of NO in leaves decreased the activities of ROS scavenger enzymes after treatment with high temperature and strong light for 2 h, which enhanced the over-accumulation of ROS to damage photosynthetic apparatus severely. All of these results suggest that NO was involved in the synthesis of D1 protein. Maintaining physiologically appropriate NO content in leaves will alleviate net degradation of D1 protein under high temperature with strong light to keep photosynthetic electrons flowing smoothly, which mitigates the accumulation of ROS in photosystems to avoid damage to the photosynthetic apparatus. Therefore, NO plays an important role in maintaining higher PSII photosynthetic performance under high temperature with strong light.     

不同光照强度和温度对金钗石斛生长的影响

为了系统地研究不同光照强度下温度对金钗石斛(Dendrobium nobile)生长的影响,在金钗石斛分蘖期,于80μmol·m-2·s-1、160μmol·m-2·s-1、320μmol·m-2·s-1、640μmol·m-2·s-1的不同光强下,各设置5个温度(15℃、20℃、25℃、30℃、35℃)梯度对石斛进行处理。结果表明：石斛的生长与代谢随温度由低到高,表现出弱—强—弱的变化规律;80μmol·m-2·S-1光强下,石斛生长以25～30℃较为适宜;160μmol·m-2·s-1光强下则以20～25℃为适宜温度范围;320μmol·m-2·s-1与640μmol·m-2·s-1的中、强光照下,25℃处理石斛的生长优势尤为明显;不同光强下,石斛鲜重的增长大多以25℃处理更快,繁殖力则以20℃与25℃处理较高,各光强下的MDA含量随温度升高而先降后升,且均以25℃最低;可溶性蛋白质、可溶性总糖及叶绿素含量则表现出随温度由低到高而先增后减的趋势,其含量最高点均出现在25℃左右;净光合速率和叶绿素含量随光强和温度的变化趋势基本一致;各种光强下的暗呼吸速率均随温度升高而增大。因此,在不同的光照条件下,石斛生长的适宜温度均在25℃左右。光温处理引起石斛生理生化过程明显的相应变化表现出：高温和弱光照条件有利于石斛的株高增长,但不利于产量和质量提高;石斛的生长与MDA含量呈显著负相关(r80＝-0.9082、r160＝-0.9816、r320＝-0.8075、r640＝-0.8586),与可溶性糖含量呈一定正相关(r80＝0.7673、r160＝0.8892、r320＝0.8179、r640＝0.9278),并且石斛的生长与可溶性蛋白质含量、叶绿素含量、光合速率之间的变化趋势基本一致。     

野外条件下光强对盾叶薯蓣影响的初步研究

通过在野外栽培条件下的笼罩实验(4个光强等级1855～2104,913～1004,525～615,141～215μmol*m-2*s-1),发现光强影响盾叶薯蓣的根状茎发芽率、叶面积、叶片丙二醛(MDA)含量、叶片过氧化物酶活性(POD)、叶片含水量以及整个植株的生物量.弱光可能因带入的热能少而对根状茎发芽不利.叶片含水量随光照强度的降低而增多.叶面积随光照强度的减小而增加,在525～615μmol*m-2*s-1光强下,盾叶薯蓣叶片的MDA含量最低,POD活性最低,地上生物量最高,对于地下部分而言,最适光强是913～1004μ*mol*m-2*s-1,在此光强下,根状茎生物量增加近3倍.故在生产中,一定程度的强光逆境是有利的.     

Recovery from Photoinhibition in Peas (Pisum sativum L.) Acclimated to Varying Growth Irradiances (Role of D1 Protein Turnover)

D1 protein turnover and restoration of the photochemical efficiency of photosystem II (PSII) after photoinhibition of pea leaves (Pisum sativum L. cv Greenfeast) acclimated to different light intensities were investigated. All peas acclimated to different light intensities were able to recover from photoinhibition, at least partially, at light intensities far above their growth light irradiance. However, the capacity of pea leaves to recover from photoinhibition under increasing high irradiances was strictly dependent on the light acclimation of the leaves; i.e. the higher the irradiance during growth, the better the capacity of pea leaves to recover from photoinhibition at moderate and high light. In our experimental conditions, mainly D1 protein turnover-dependent recovery was monitored, since in the presence of an inhibitor of chloroplast-encoded protein synthesis, lincomycin, only negligible recovery took place. In darkness, neither the restoration of PSII photochemical efficiency nor any notable degradation of damaged D1 protein took place. In low light, however, good recovery of PSII occurred in all peas acclimated to different light intensities and was accompanied by fast degradation of the D1 protein. The rate of degradation of the D1 protein was estimated to be 3 to 4 times faster in photoinhibited leaves than in nonphotoinhibited leaves under the recovery conditions of 50 [mu]mol of photons m-2 s-1. In moderate light of 400 [mu]mol of photons m-2 s-1, the photoinhibited low-light peas were not able to increase further the rate of D1 protein degradation above that observed in nonphotoinhibited leaves, nor was the restoration of PSII function possible. On the other hand, photoinhibited high-light leaves were able to increase the rate of D1 protein degradation above that of nonphotoinhibited leaves even in moderate and high light, ensuring at least partial restoration of PSII function. We conclude that the capacity of photoinhibited leaves to restore PSII function at different irradiances was directly related to the capacity of the leaves to degrade damaged D1 protein under the recovery conditions.     

Photoinhibition and Photoprotection in Ginkgo biloba leaves: Influence of Temperature,CO2 and O2

In midday ginkgo ( Ginkgo biloba L. ) leaves have to bear photon flux density over 1 400 μmol·m-2·s-l in combination with high temperatures around 35℃ at natural habitat. They show typical midday depression of stomatal conductance and of CO2 assimilation rate. The zeaxanthin changes with light intensity during the day. The influence of the combination of strong light and temperature on photoinhibition was also examined in the laboratory. A low CO2 internal conductance (31 mmol· m- 2·s- 1 ) was found in ginkgo leaves, which had been exposed to excessive light at temperature between 15 ℃ and 35 ℃ with reduced CO2 (80 μL·L-l) or oxygen (2%) for 2 h, causing a low CO2 concentration at the carboxylation site and a high proportion of photorespimtion. The ratio of electron transport to CO2 fixation was rather high in ginkgo ( 16 e- /CO2 at 25 ℃ ) as compared with other plants. It increased with temperature also in 2% 02 which could not be explained solely as due to change of photorespimtion. The reduction of oxygen in 340 or 80 μL·L- 1 CO2 had no effect on the extent of photoinhibition at all temperatures, which indicated that eleetron flow caused by photorespiration in excess light was negligible in protective effect in ginkgo leaves. However, a decreased CO2 coneentration increased photoinhibition, especially at high temperature. It is concluded that the dissipation of excessive excitation energy in the PS II antennae through the xanthophyll cycle may be the major protective mechanism to preventing from the deteriorated effects of strong light in ginkgo leaves.     

Susceptibility of Tobacco Leaves to Photoinhibition following Infection with Two Strains of Tobacco Mosaic Virus under Different Light and Nitrogen Nutrition Regimes

Sensitivity to photoinhibition under high light stress (2000 [mu]mol photons m-2 s-1 for 2 h in air) and recovery from this stress were examined in leaves of control, uninfected tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum cv Xanthi) leaves and in leaves in tobacco plants infected with tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) when grown under low light (150-200 [mu]mol photons m-2 s-1) or high light (1200 [mu]mol photons m-2 s-1) with high (8.0 mM) or low (0.5 mM) nitrate supply. Photoinhibition was monitored using the dark-adapted fluorescence parameters variable fluorescence/maximum fluorescence, an indicator of photosynthetic efficiency that correlated well with the quantum yield of photosynthetic oxygen evolution, and initial fluorescence, potentially an indicator of photoinhibitory damage. Susceptibility to photoinhibition was greater in low light- and low nitrogen-grown control plants than in high light- or high nitrogen-treated plants. Compared with uninfected controls, infection with the masked strain PV42 increased susceptibility to photoinhibition only in plants grown under low light/low nitrogen conditions. In expanding leaves, infection with severe strain TMV PV230 markedly accelerated photoinhibition under these conditions and under high light/low nitrogen conditions, even before visible symptoms were evident. High nitrogen levels during growth protected against this accelerated photoinhibitory response to virus infection during light stress and generally promoted recovery, at least prior to symptom development. As symptoms developed, the yellow regions provided evidence for chronic photoinhibitory damage, prior to and during the stress treatment, irrespective of growth conditions. Green regions of leaves showing visible symptoms were generally indistinguishable from control, uninfected plants during photoinhibitory stress and recovery. In developed leaves that remained free of visible symptoms during the experiments, in spite of the accumulation of about the same amounts of virus protein (S. Balachandran, C.B. Osmond, A. Makino [1994] Plant Physiol 104: 1043-1050) infection led to an acceleration of photoinhibition during stress treatments, especially in low light/low nitrogen treatments, in which chronic photoinhibitory damage was evident. These studies suggest a role for photoinhibitory damage in the acceleration of visible symptom development following TMV PV230 infection of expanding leaves, as well as in acceleration of senescence in developed leaves without visible symptoms.     

烟草叶片中呼吸电子传递途径在缓解叶绿体PSⅡ光抑制中的作用

前期研究发现线粒体交替氧化酶(AOX)呼吸途径对叶绿体光系统II(PSII)的光抑制有明显的缓解作用。线粒体内另一条呼吸途径——细胞色素氧化酶(COX)呼吸途径是否也具有光保护作用尚不清楚。该文通过荧光快速诱导动力学和荧光淬灭分析,解析了烟草(Nicotiana tabacum)叶片中COX途径对PSII光保护的贡献及其与AOX途径的关系。结果表明,强光处理后PSII活性在所有叶片中均下降。AOX途径受抑明显加速了叶片PSII活性的下降。而当COX途径受抑后,叶片PSII活性的下降与水处理的对照叶片无明显差异。当AOX途径与COX途径同时受抑时,叶片PSII活性的下降比单独抑制AOX途径时更严重。此外,呼吸电子传递受抑均导致叶片非光化学淬灭(NPQ)增加,AOX途径受抑导致的NPQ上调比COX途径受抑时更明显,AOX和COX途径同时受抑时NPQ的增幅最大。上述结果表明,烟草叶片中COX途径和AOX途径均参与PSⅡ的光保护。当COX途径受抑时,其光保护功能可以被AOX途径和NPQ补偿,而AOX途径的光保护作用不能被COX途径和NPQ完全补偿。
