名词解释

[36]植物抗逆性(Stress resistance) 泛指植物对不良环境(或逆境)的抵抗能力。Levitt用公式简单地表达为:抗性(resistance)二胁强(stress)/胁变(strain)。胁强指外界环境对植物施加的影响(或力),胁变指植物受到胁强后发生的变化。根据公式抗逆性可理解为引起一定的胁变所需要的胁强.抗逆性大致可分为两种形式:避逆性(stressavoidance)即在植物与环境之间在时间或空间上设置某种屏障,从而避开或减小外来的胁强,耐逆性

近50年中国典型木本植物展叶始期温度敏感度变化及原因

展叶始期的温度敏感度是指气温每变化1℃,物候期变化的天数。展叶始期对温度响应更敏感的植物能够在生长季初期占据更多的资源从而在种间竞争中占据优势,因此研究展叶始期的温度敏感度变化有助于评估植物对气候变化的适应能力。选择1963-2014年10个站点163种植物的展叶始期资料,利用滑动分析法计算了每15a各植物的展叶始期温度敏感度。在此基础上,分析了温度敏感度的变化趋势及空间格局,并讨论了导致展叶始期温度敏感度变化的可能原因。主要结论为：在全部313条展叶始期时间序列中,60.1%的序列温度敏感度呈升高趋势,其中显著升高的占40.0%（P < 0.05）;39.9%的序列温度敏感度降低,其中显著降低的占28.4%。在空间分布上,温带地区的6个站点展叶始期温度敏感度平均呈升高趋势。其中,北京地区植物展叶始期温度敏感度升高最为普遍,显著升高的物种比例达到75.0%（P < 0.05）。而亚热带站点（除合肥外）的展叶始期温度敏感度主要呈降低趋势。其中,长沙植物展叶始期温度敏感度显著降低的物种比例最高,达68.4%。冬季冷激量和春季气温变率是影响植物展叶始期温度敏感度随时间变化的主要因素。冬季冷激量降低将导致植物展叶始期温度敏感度降低,而春季气温变率降低将导致植物展叶始期温度敏感度升高。

采用盆栽实验,对灰绿型和黄绿型两个生态型羊草(Leymus chinensis)在幼苗期分别用不同强度的NaCl、Na2CO3和混合盐碱胁迫,测定其叶片叶绿素含量、电解质外渗率和植株脯氨酸、Na／K等生理指标。结果表明,在3种盐碱胁迫条件下,灰绿型和黄绿型羊草的叶片叶绿素含量、电解质外渗率和植株脯氨酸、Na／K均与胁强之间呈直线y=a+bx变化,达到了显著或极显著水平,两个实验种群均具有耐盐碱能力,叶片叶绿素含量、电解质外渗率和植株脯氨酸、Na／K均有显著或极显著差异,它们在耐盐碱生理特性上已产生了分化,其中,灰绿型的耐盐碱能力强于黄绿型,本文为羊草生态型分化主导生态因子是土壤盐碱所致提供了的生理学证据。     

贵州野生柑橘的抗寒性测定和综合评价

以贵州3个野生柑橘种类宜昌橙、酸橙、白黎檬和栽培品种‘默科特’的一年生枝条为试材,人工设置4℃(CK)、0℃、-5℃、-10℃、-15℃、-20℃、-25℃低温冷冻处理24h,研究了4个柑橘种类枝条膜脂过氧化作用、抗氧化酶活性和有机渗透调节物质的变化,并应用Logistic方程建立回归模型确定其半致死温度(LT50),应用隶属函数法综合评价野生柑橘种类的抗寒性。结果表明:(1)随着温度的降低,4个柑橘种类枝条的电解质外渗率均呈"S"型上升,SOD、POD活性以及可溶性蛋白、可溶性糖含量均先升后降,MDA含量在宜昌橙枝条中逐渐缓慢上升,在其余材料枝条中则先升高后下降;栽培品种‘默科特’枝条的保护酶活性、渗透调节物质含量在0℃或者-5℃达到峰值,而宜昌橙则在-15℃或者-20℃达到最大值,两者的MDA含量则分别在-15℃和-25℃达到最大值。(2)利用电解质外渗率拟合Logistic方程推算的宜昌橙、酸橙、白黎檬和‘默科特’的低温半致死温度分别为-14.86℃、-7.28℃、-8.45℃和-5.88℃;用隶属函数法与Logistic方程分析所得各柑橘种类的抗寒性强弱结果基本一致,4个柑橘种类的抗寒性强弱顺序为:宜昌橙酸橙白黎檬‘默科特’。研究认为,抗寒性强的柑橘枝条的保护酶活性、渗透调节物质和MDA含量达到峰值的温度更低,具有更强的抗氧化胁迫能力和渗透调节能力,且野生柑橘的抗寒性较栽培种强;半致死温度和隶属函数法均可有效评价柑橘种类的抗寒性。     

贮运温度对盆栽榕树落叶及抗性生理的影响

以盆栽榕树为试验材料,探讨不同贮运温度对盆栽榕树落叶及抗性生理的变化。结果表明,不同贮运温度对盆栽榕树落叶及抗性生理影响显著。与(16±1)℃及(19±1)℃比较,(10±1)℃及(13±1)℃的贮运温度能显著减缓叶片的细胞质膜透性、降低丙二醛(MDA)含量,提高过氧化物酶(POD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性,增加可溶性糖和可溶性蛋白含量,延缓叶绿素的降解速度,落叶率低。在贮运36 d时,(10±1)℃和(13±1)℃贮运温度的落叶率均在16%以下,达到出口要求,而两者间的落叶率差异不显著。

低温锻炼对水稻幼苗叶片中Rubisco的影响

低温锻炼能提高水稻幼苗的抗冷力,低温锻炼虽不能明显提高Rubisoc活性,却提高了冷胁条件下Rubisoc的稳定性和增强了胁迫后正常生长条件下其活性的恢复能力。分别用火箭免疫电泳分析Rubisoc蛋白和SDS-PAGE分析大、小亚基量表明：低温锻炼未提高Rubisoc蛋白的合成能力,但增加了大、小亚基的合成量。经锻炼、冷胁迫以及恢复后Lsu／Ssu比值的变化主要是由于小亚基对温度变化更敏感所致。Rubisco酶特性分析表明,低温锻炼有减少水稻幼苗Rubisoc表面的SH数,并提高Rubisco蛋白在高、低温下的稳定性。     

盐（NaCl）与碱（Na2CO3）对星星草胁迫作用的差异

对生长在蛭石中8周龄的星星草(Puccinellia tenuiflora(Criseb.)Scribn.et Merr.)用 12.5—800mmol/L 的中性盐 NaCl或碱性盐 Na_2CO_3进行胁迫处理,测定植物日相对生长率等胁变指标。结果表明星星草的抗盐性高于抗碱性,可耐受的最高浓度分别为:中性盐NaCl 600 mmol/L、碱性盐 Na_2CO_3 200mmol/L_o NaCl胁迫下,随胁强增高,脯氨酸明显积累,柠檬酸含量则逐渐下降;Na_2CO_3胁迫下,脯氨酸仅稍有积累而柠檬酸含量却急剧升高。两种胁迫下都表现出:随胁强增大,Na~ 含量明显上升,K~ 含量下降。但是,NaCl胁迫对K~ 含量影响不大,而Na_2CO_3胁迫则导致根及茎叶中的K~ 含量明显下降。诸胁变指标中唯有叶片电解质外渗率对两种胁迫来说变化特点相似。     

Effects of cold- and heat hardening on thermal resistance in Drosophila melanogaster

The effects of cold- and heat hardening on resistance to both low and high temperature stress was examined in Drosophila melanogaster lines selected for resistance to either cold or heat. The hardening effect was positive when the hardening was of the same type as the stress in all selection regimes. The effect of cold hardening on survival after heat stress was further examined in the lines selected for cold resistance and corresponding controls. A cross-protection effect (increased heat resistance after cold hardening) was present and this effect was lower in the lines selected for resistance to cold than in the controls. The level of Hsp70 expression induced by a non-lethal cold hardening was examined, showing that cold hardening induced Hsp70 expression. The results suggest that the cross-protection effect is at least partly due to Hsp70 expression induced by cold exposure.     

Effects of Hormones on Morphogenesis and Cold Resistance in Berseem Clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.)

Plants of berseem clover (Trifolium alexandrinum L.) cv. Taborwere raised under conditions inhibiting the acquisition of coldhardiness (non-hardened) or inducing cold hardiness (hardened).All non-hardened plants developed an elongated shoot and exhibitedconsiderable frost sensitivity, as measured by the extent ofthe reduction in yield of variable chlorophyll fluorescenceafter exposure to sub-zero temperature. Hardened plants developeda shorter shoot, with fewer leaves and a greater percentageof dry matter in the root system. These parameters were associatedwith a marked increase in frost resistance. Exogenous applicationof ABA to plants effected similar morphological modificationsin both hardening and non-hardening temperature regimes; plantsdeveloped a shorter primary shoot axis and leaves exhibiteda marked increase in frost hardiness. In berseem clover ABAcan thus substitute, at least partially, for the low temperaturetreatment required to induce cold hardiness. Spraying plantsraised under hardening conditions with gibberellic acid reversedthe effects of the hardening treatment, since they developedan elongated shoot and exhibited frost sensitivity comparableto non-treated plants grown under non-hardening conditions.It is concluded that these endogenous hormones are directlyinvolved in triggering changes in morphogenesis which accompanyphysiological and metabolic events associated with the inductionof plant cold hardiness. Key words: Frost resistance, morphogenesis, abscisic acid, giberellic acid, Trifolium alexandrinum     

Role of HSF activation for resistance to heat, cold and high-temperature knock-down

Regulation of heat shock proteins (Hsps) by the heat shock factor (HSF) and the importance of these proteins for resistance to heat stress is well documented. Less characterized is the importance of Hsps for cold stress resistance although Hsp70 is known to be induced following long-term cold exposure in Drosophila melanogaster. In this study, a temperature-sensitive HSF mutant line was used to investigate the role of HSF activation following heat hardening, rapid cold hardening (RCH) and long-term cold acclimation (LTCA) on heat and cold resistance, and this was correlated with Hsp70 expression. In addition, the effect of HSF activation on high-temperature knock-down resistance was evaluated. We found a significantly decreased HSF activation in the mutant line as compared to a corresponding control line following heat hardening, and this was correlated with decreased heat resistance of the mutant line. However, we did not find this difference in HSF activity to be important for resistance to cold stress or high-temperature knock-down. The findings indicate that induction of stress genes regulated by HSF, such as Hsps, although occurring following LTCA, are not of major importance for cold stress resistance and neither for RCH nor high-temperature knock-down resistance in D. melanogaster.     

Plant resistance to cold stress: Mechanisms and environmental signals triggering frost hardening and dehardening

This introductory overview shows that cold, in particular frost, stresses a plant in manifold ways and that the plant’s response, being injurious or adaptive, must be considered a syndrome rather than a single reaction. In the course of the year perennial plants of the temperate climate zones undergo frost hardening in autumn and dehardening in spring. Using Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris L.) as a model plant the environmental signals inducing frost hardening and dehardening, respectively, were investigated. Over 2 years the changes in frost resistance of Scots pine needles were recorded together with the annual courses of day-length and ambient temperature. Both act as environmental signals for frost hardening and dehardening. Climate chamber experiments showed that short day-length as a signal triggering frost hardening could be replaced by irradiation with far red light, while red light inhibited hardening. The involvement of phytochrome as a signal receptor could be corroborated by respective night-break experiments. More rapid frost hardening than by short day or far red treatment was achieved by applying a short period (6 h) of mild frost which did not exceed the plant’s cold resistance. Both types of signals were independently effective but the rates of frost hardening were not additive. The maximal rate of hardening was − 0.93°C per day and frost tolerance of < − 72°C was achieved. For dehardening, temperature was an even more effective signal than day-length.     

Effect of Cold Hardening on SOD and Glutathion Reductase Activities and on the Contents of the Reduced Form of Glutathion and Ascorbic Acid in Rice and Cucumber Seedlings

Rice and cucumber seedlings were employed in the study on changes of superoxide dismatase (SOD) and glutathion reductase (GR) activities, the contents of the reduced form of glutathion (GSH) and ascorbic acid (ASA) in leaves and the chilling resistance as well as the level of lipid peroxidation products after cold hardening and chilling stress under light. The seedlings hardened under a day/night temperature variation of 15 ℃/10 ℃ and photon flux density (PFD) of 250μmol · m-2 · s-1 for 12 h/d indicated an increase of the activities of SOD and GR, and the contents of GSH and AsA. The resistance of the seedlings to chilling and light stress was enhanced by cold hardening. Under the stress condition, the stabilities of SOD and GR activities, and contents of GSH and AsA in hardened seedlings were higher than those in the unhardened seedlings; the lipid peroxidation was also less than that in the latter. It was thus concluded that cold-hardening under appropriate light leads on to the enhancement of function of membrane protective system and increase of cell membrane stability which is an important part of chilling-resistance mechanism in the plant.     

Temperature drop, dry matter accumulation and cold resistance of young cucumber plants

The study aimed to provide information on the involvement of plant cold resistance in a whole cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) plant response to temperature drop treatments. The main objective was to explain the effects of a temperature drop on dry matter production and plant morphogenesis. The experimental design included temperature drops to 12°C for 0, 1, 2, 4 and 6 hours at the beginning, in the middle and at the end of the night. The overall average temperature for all treatments was 20°C. A 2-hour temperature drop resulted in the most significant reduction in plant dry weight and leaf petiole length, but the highest degree of cold resistance. With the extension of a temperature drop duration to 4--6 hours, dry matter production was similar to that in the control plants, leaf petiole length increased, but not up to the control level and cold resistance was reduced, but was still higher compared to that of the control plants. Changes in dry matter production, leaf petiole length and cold resistance, depending on the duration of the temperature drop, were interrelated and their patterns varied little with the timing (position effect) of the temperature drop. It is concluded that plant cold resistance mechanisms play an important role in a whole plant response to temperature drop treatments. Thus, plant response to temperature drop treatments can be considered as a response to stress.

Components of Pink Snow Mould Resistance in Winter Wheat are Expressed Prior to Cold Hardening and in Detached Leaves

Resistance to pink snow mould, caused by Microdochium nivale, was investigated in four resistant winter wheat lines from the USDA World Cereal Collection (CI9342, CI14106, PI173440 and PI181268) and three Nordic wheat lines (Bjørke, Rida and V1004). Pink snow mould resistance was tested in non‐hardened and cold‐hardened plants incubated under artificial snow cover and in detached leaf segments mounted on water agar and incubated at either 3°C in darkness or at room temperature with light during the day. The wheat lines CI9342, CI14106 and PI181268 were more resistant than the Nordic lines, both before and after cold hardening. Thus, although cold hardening strongly increases the level of snow mould resistance in all the wheat lines, some resistance mechanisms are also present prior to cold hardening in some of the resistant lines. CI9342, CI14106 and PI181268 also had a higher level of resistance than the other lines in the detached leaf assay, indicating that these lines have some resistance mechanisms acting in the leaves. The resistance of PI173440 was expressed only in intact hardened plants and not in non‐hardened plants or in detached leaves. This indicates that this line relies on cold hardening‐related changes in the crown for its resistance. In the detached leaf assay the rate of lesion development varied greatly between leaves of different order. The highest correlation with the whole plant test was obtained when using secondary leaves and incubation at 3°C in the dark.     

Low temperature sensing in tulip (Tulipa gesneriana L.) is mediated through an increased response to auxin

Tulip (Tulipa gesneriana L.) is a bulbous plant species that requires a period of low temperature for proper growth and flowering. The mechanism of sensing the low temperature period is unknown. The study presented in this paper shows that the essential developmental change in tulip bulbs during cold treatment is an increase in sensitivity to the phytohormone auxin. This is demonstrated using a model system consisting of isolated internodes grown on tissue culture medium containing different combinations of the phytohormones auxin and gibberellin. Using mathematical modelling, equations taken from the field of enzyme kinetics were fitted through the data. By doing so it became apparent that longer periods of low temperature resulted in an increased maximum response at a lower auxin concentration. Besides the cold treatment, gibberellin also enhances the response to auxin in the internodes in this in vitro system. A working model describing the relationship between the cold requirement, gibberellin action and auxin sensitivity is put forward. Possible analogies with other cold-requiring processes such as vernalization and stratification, and the interaction of auxin and gibberellin in the stalk elongation process in other plant species are discussed.     

Can Winter-Active Bumblebees Survive the Cold? Assessing the Cold Tolerance of Bombus terrestris audax and the Effects of Pollen Feeding

There is now considerable evidence that climate change is disrupting the phenology of key pollinator species. The recently reported UK winter activity of the bumblebee Bombus terrestris brings a novel set of thermal challenges to bumblebee workers that would typically only be exposed to summer conditions. Here we assess the ability of workers to survive acute and chronic cold stress (via lower lethal temperatures and lower lethal times at 0°C), the capacity for rapid cold hardening (RCH) and the influence of diet (pollen versus nectar consumption) on supercooling points (SCP). Comparisons are made with chronic cold stress indices and SCPs in queen bumblebees. Results showed worker bees were able to survive acute temperatures likely to be experienced in a mild winter, with queens significantly more tolerant to chronic cold temperature stress. The first evidence of RCH in any Hymenoptera is shown. In addition, dietary manipulation indicated the consumption of pollen significantly increased SCP temperature. These results are discussed in the light of winter active bumblebees and climate change.
