多胺对离体黄瓜子叶花芽构建的影响

研究了外源多胺对离体黄瓜(CucumissativusL.)子叶内在多胺含量和花芽构建的影响。在MS培养基中添加5×10-2mmol·L-1亚精胺(Spd)、精胺(Spm)能明显提高子叶内Spd含量和SpdPut值,子叶成花率也明显高于对照组,而添加5×10-2mmol·L-1Put、5mmol·L-1环己胺硫酸盐(CHAS)培养的结果则相反。表明子叶内Spd含量和SpdPut与成花率呈正相关关系。在添加5mmol·L-1D精氨酸(DArg)处理后,子叶内SpdPut高于Spd处理,但子叶成花率低于对照组,表明Put、Spd含量也影响离体子叶花芽的构建。在实验中添加CHAS处理后子叶内Spm含量高出对照组10倍,子叶成花率却为0,其它各处理与对照组的内源Spm变化基本一致,成花率却差别明显,表明子叶内Spm含量与黄瓜子叶花芽构建之间无明显相关性。     

TDZ对铁皮石斛去根苗花芽形态建成中多胺含量变化的影响

应用添加TDZ的MS培养基离体培养铁皮石斛去根苗,研究了TDZ对花芽形态建成及内源多胺含量变化的影响。结果发现,0.1 mg·L^-1 TDZ处理的铁皮石斛去根苗的成花率达21.1%,而ck组的为0;在花芽形态建成中铁皮石斛顶枝中内源Spd（亚精胺）、Spm（精胺）含量,Spd/Put（腐胺）、Spm/Put高于对照组的,在花芽初现时显著高于对照组的,Put、DAP(1,3-二氨基丙烷)含量均明显低于对照组的,表明外施TDZ可引起铁皮石斛内源多胺代谢及其比值的变化进而有利于花芽的形态建成。     

低氧胁迫下24-表油菜素内酯对黄瓜幼苗叶片光合特性及多胺含量的影响

采用1/2 Hoagland营养液培养,研究了低氧胁迫下24-表油菜素内酯(EBR)对黄瓜幼苗叶片光合特性及多胺含量的影响.结果表明：低氧胁迫下黄瓜幼苗的净光合速率(P_n)、气孔导度(g_s)、蒸腾速率(T_r)、胞间CO₂浓度(C_i)显著下降,而叶绿素含量显著提高,幼苗生长受抑;低氧胁迫显著提高了黄瓜幼苗叶片的腐胺(Put)、亚精胺(Spd)、精胺(Spm)、多胺(PAs)含量和Put/PAs,但降低了(Spd+Spm) /Put.低氧胁迫下,外源EBR不仅显著提高了黄瓜幼苗的P_n、g_s、T_r及叶绿素含量,也显著提高了黄瓜幼苗叶片的游离态Spm、结合态Spd、Spm及束缚态Put、Spd、Spm含量,促进了PAs的进一步积累,且降低了Put/PAs,提高了(Spd+Spm)/Put．可见,外源EBR调节了黄瓜幼苗内源多胺含量及形态的变化,维持了较高的光合性能,促进了叶面积和干物质量的显著增加,缓解了低氧胁迫对黄瓜幼苗的伤害.     

6-BA+B9对龙眼花芽生理分化期内源多胺含量变化的影响

在龙眼花芽生理分化期喷施6-BA 200 mg/L+B₉ 2000 mg/L,跟踪测定其内源多胺含量变化。研究结果表明,龙眼花芽生理分化期内源腐胺(Put)、亚精胺(Spd)和精胺(Spm)含量均出现积累,喷施6-BA+B₉能明显提高内源多胺含量,特别是Put和Spd的含量。内源多胺与花芽分化有一定的内在联系,生长调节剂对花芽分化的调控有可能通过多胺来实现或协同作用。     

激动素在西葫芦子叶的花芽构建过程中促成的生理生化变化

报道了在激动素的影响下离体培养的西葫芦(Cucuibita pepoL.)子叶的生理生化变异及花芽的构建。结果如下在附加有激动素(KT)1.0mg.L-1的MS培养基培养的西葫芦子叶中花芽的发生率占46%,而对照组中仅达到5%。在花芽的构建过程中子叶内在的可溶蛋白,可溶糖,RNA和POD活性明显高于对照组;亚精胺(Spd)和腐胺(Put)的比值(Spd/Put)高于对照组的2倍;淀粉和DNA的含量与对照组无大的区别,但是二氨基丙烷(DAP)和尸胺(Cad)却明显下降了。由此可见在激动素影响下子叶出现的生理生化指数变化促进了花芽的构建。     

离体黄瓜子叶节花芽分化与内源激素及多胺的关系

用高效液相色谱法(HPLC)测定了黄瓜子叶节花芽分化期(0—6天)内源激素及多胺的变化。结果显示,子叶培养0—2天生长素(IAA)、赤霉素(GA3)、玉米素(ZT)、脱落酸(ABA)等4种内源激素均明显下降,4—5天略有上升,表明0-2天IAA、GA3和ABA的剧降有利于花原基形成,3—5天较高的ZT含量有利于花器官原基的形成。除腐胺(Put)外,精胺(Spm)、亚精胺(Spd)、尸胺(Cad)在0—1天均下降,1—4天上升,4—5天再下降,Put在0—1天急剧上升,而后持续下降,表明高水平的内源多胺总量和Put可能有利于花原基分化,2天后Spm含量上升有利于花器官原基分化,而Cad含量变化可能是区别花芽和营养芽分化的特征之一。

水分胁迫下山黧豆多胺代谢与 β-N-草酰-L-α ,β-二氨基丙酸积累相关性的研究

为了研究水分胁迫下山黧豆 (LathyrussativusL .)叶片中多胺代谢与 β_N_草酰_L_α,β_二氨基丙酸 (ODAP)积累的相关关系 ,利用聚乙二醇 (PEG)对山黧豆幼苗进行水分胁迫处理 ,同时加入腐胺 (Put) ,α_二氟甲基精氨酸(DFMA)和Put DFMA。实验结果表明 ,随PEG处理时间的延长 ,山黧豆幼苗叶片中Put、亚精胺 (Spd)和精胺 (Spm)含量逐渐增加 ,特别是Spm含量增加显著 ,同时ODAP逐渐积累 ;在PEG处理的同时 ,加入Put使得Put、Spd含量显著增加 ,但对Spm影响不大 ,同样对ODAP含量影响也较小 ;加入DFMA可显著抑制Put、Spd、Spm的积累 ,同时也抑制了ODAP的积累 ;加入Put DFMA ,Put可以部分地减缓DFMA对两种内源多胺 (Put和Spd)合成的抑制作用 ,但对Spm所受DFMA的抑制作用影响不大 ,这时ODAP的积累也受到抑制。由此可见 ,水分胁迫对山黧豆幼苗叶片中多胺特别是Spm含量的增加与ODAP的积累密切相关。

用薄层层析-荧光法测定菊花'神马'花芽分化期间顶芽和叶片中多胺的动态变化,分析了菊花花芽分化与多胺的关系.结果表明,花芽分化起始期顶芽中的腐胺(Put)含量急剧下降,此后在低水平上波动;叶片内Put则于总苞鳞片分化初期大幅上升,其后各阶段处于较低的水平.顶芽中精胺(Spm)与亚精胺(Spd)含量呈平行波动上升趋势,顶芽中Spin在小花原基分化初期直到花冠分化中期处于优势地位,而顶芽中Spd并无明显变化.顶芽、叶片中的Spin变化趋势相反,顶芽中Spm、Spd的含量变化趋势十分相似,但叶片中却呈交替性变化.结果显示,菊花花芽分化过程中,Put含量的降低有利于启动菊花花芽分化,后期Spm的增加有利于小花的分化,叶片可能向顶芽提供Spm,顶芽和叶片中的Spd与小花原基分化有密切关系.     

Exogenous polyamines enhance copper tolerance of Nymphoides peltatum

The protective effects of polyamines (PAs) against copper (Cu) toxicity were investigated in the leaves of Nymphoides peltatum. Cu treatment increased the putrescine (Put) level and lowered spermidine (Spd) and spermine (Spm) levels, thereby reducing the (Spd+Spm)/Put ratio in leaves. Exogenous application of Spd or Spm markedly reversed these Cu-induced effects for all three PAs and partially restored the (Spd+Spm)/Put ratio in leaves. It also significantly enhanced the level of proline, retarded the loss of soluble protein, decreased the rate of O2*- generation and H2O2 content, and prevented Cu-induced lipid peroxidation. Furthermore, exogenous Spd and Spm reduced the accumulation of Cu and effectively maintained the balance of nutrient elements in plant leaves under Cu stress. These results suggest that exogenous application of Spd or Spm can enhance the tolerance of N. peltatum to Cu by increasing the levels of endogenous Spd and Spm as well as the (Spd+Spm)/Put ratio.     

Role of polyamines in adventitious shoot morphogenesis from cotyledons of cucumber <Emphasis Type="Italic">in vitro</Emphasis>

The relationship between polyamines (PAs) metabolism and adventitious shoot morphogenesis from cotyledons of cucumber was investigated in vitro. The endogenous levels of free putrescine (Put) and spermidine (Spd) in the explants decreased sharply, whereas endogenous spermine (Spm) increased during adventitious shoot morphogenesis. The presence of 1–15 mM Put, 1–2 mM Spd, 0.05–1 mM Spm, 5–10 M aminoethoxyvinylglycine (AVG) or 5 M AVG together with 50 M 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) in the regeneration medium could promote adventitious shoot formation. Conversely, 1–5 mM D-arginine (D-Arg) or 0.01–0.1 mM methylglyoxal bis-guganylhydrazone (MGBG) inhibited regeneration; and 0.005–0.05 mM ACC displayed little or no evident effects. The explants growing on medium containing 5 M AVG produced higher levels of free Put and Spm, and on medium containing 5 mM Put the explants responded similarly to the AVG-treated explants. However, the exogenous use of 1 mM D-Arg reduced the levels of Put, Spd and Spm, and 0.1 mM MGBG reduced the levels of free Spd and Spm. Moreover, although the explants cultured on medium containing Put and MGBG enhanced ethylene production, AVG and D-Arg inhibited ethylene biosynthesis. This study shows the PAs requirement for the formation of adventitious shoot from cotyledons of cucumber in vitro and the enhanced adventitious shoot morphogenesis may be associated with the elevated level of endogenous free Spm, albeit the promotive effect of PAs on adventitious shoot morphogenesis may not be related to ethylene metabolism.     

Exogenously added polyamines recover browning tissues into normal callus cultures and improve plant regeneration in pine

Polyamines are known to influence a variety of growth and developmental processes in higher plants. Tissue browning seriously reduces in vitro plant regeneration in pine species by decreasing the levels of antioxidant enzymes and polyamines in tissue cultures. In the present investigation, the effect of exogenously added polyamines on recovering browning tissues into normal callus cultures and on improving plant regeneration was examined in Virginia pine ( Pinus virginiana Mill.). Among the polyamines administered, 1.5 m M putrescine (Put), 1.5 m M spermidine (Spd), or 1.5 m M spermine (Spm) alone resulted in a 19.55%, 18.92%, and 1.45%, respectively, recovering of browning tissues into normal callus cultures in 5 weeks. A combination of Put with Spd or Spm did not result in an increase of recovering rate, compared to the Put or Spd alone. Exogenously added 1.5 m M Put, 1.5 m M Spd, 1.5 m M Put + 1.5 m M Spd, or 1.5 m M Put + 1.5 m M Spm recovers browning tissues into normal callus cultures by increasing the activity of antioxidant enzymes ascorbate peroxidase (APOX), glutathione reductase (GR) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) and by decreasing lipid peroxidation. Exogenously added 1.5 m M Put, 1.5 m M Spd, 1.5 m M Put + 1.5 m M Spd, or 1.5 m M Put + 1.5 m M Spm significantly improve the growth rate of callus cultures, shoot formation, and rooting adventitious shoots. These results demonstrated that exogenously added polyamines recover browning tissues into normal callus cultures by decreasing oxidative damage and improving plant regeneration by acting as plant growth substances.     

Polyamines and cellular metabolism in plants: transgenic approaches reveal different responses to diamine putrescine versus higher polyamines spermidine and spermine

Distribution of biogenic amines—the diamine putrescine (Put), triamine spermidine (Spd), and tetraamine spermine (Spm)—differs between species with Put and Spd being particularly abundant and Spm the least abundant in plant cells. These amines are important for cell viability and their intracellular levels are tightly regulated, which have made it difficult to characterize individual effects of Put, Spd and Spm on plant growth and developmental processes. The recent transgenic intervention and mutational genetics have made it possible to stably alter levels of naturally occurring polyamines and study their biological effects. We bring together an analysis of certain metabolic changes, particularly in amino acids, to infer the responsive regulation brought about by increased diamine or polyamine levels in actively growing poplar cell cultures (transformed with mouse ornithine decarboxylase gene to accumulate high Put levels) and ripening tomato pericarp (transformed with yeast S-adenosylmethionine decarboxylase gene to accumulate high Spd and Spm levels at the cost of Put). Our analysis indicates that increased Put has little effect on increasing the levels of Spd and Spm, while Spd and Spm levels are inter-dependent. Further, Put levels were positively associated with Ala (α and β), Ile and GABA and negatively correlated with Gln and Glu in both actively growing poplar cell cultures and non-dividing tomato pericarp tissue. Most amino acids showed positive correlations with Spd and Spm levels in actively growing cells. Collectively these results suggest that Put is a negative regulator while Spd–Spm are positive regulators of cellular amino acid metabolism.     

Effects of exogenous polyamines on nitrate tolerance in cucumber

Putrescine (Put), spermidine (Spd), and spermine (Spm) are the major polyamines (PAs) in plant, which are not only involved in the regulation of plant developmental and physiological processes, but also play key roles in modulating the defense response of plants to diverse environmental stresses. In this study, Cucumis sativus L. seedlings were cultivated in nutrient solution and sprayed with three kinds of PAs (Put, Spd, and Spm). The effects of PAs were investigated on excess nitrate stress tolerance of C. sativus by measuring growth and nitrogen (N) metabolism parameters. The contents of NO_3-^?N, NH_4-⁺N, proline and soluble protein in leaves were increased; while plant height, leaf area, shoot fresh and dry weight, root fresh weight were decreased under 140 mM NO₃^? treatment for 7 d. In addition, the activities of nitrate reductase (NR), glutamate synthase (GOGAT), and glutamate dehydrogenase (GDH) were significantly inhibited under 140 mM NO₃^? treatment for 7 d. With foliar treatment by 1 mM Spd or Spm under stress treatment, the contents of Spm, Put, and Spd in leaves increased significantly, except that Spm content decreased under Spd treatment. The activities of NR, glutamine synthetase (GS), GOGAT and GDH and plant height, leaf area, shoot fresh and dry weights were significantly increased. The contents of proline and soluble protein in leaves were significantly enhanced. In contrast, the accumulation of NO_3-^?N and NH_4-⁺N were significantly decreased. However, there were minor differences in activities of N metabolism enzymes and the content of osmotic adjustment substances under 1 mM Put treatment. These findings suggest that 1 mM exogenous Spm or Spd could enhance the capacity of N metabolism, promote growth and increase resistance to high concentrations of NO₃^?. The ameliorating effect of Spd was the best, and that of Put the worst.     

节瓜茎尖多胺含量和比值与花性别分化的关系

以4个不同基因型的节瓜为材料,通过两个发育时期（10、19片叶展平）茎尖取样,研究了多胺（PA）含量和比值与植株花性别分化的关系。结果表明,节瓜茎尖4种多胺含量差异显著,两个取样时期都是亚精胺（Spd）〉腐胺（Put）〉尸胺（Cad）〉精胺（Spm）。10片叶展平时期多胺含量与节瓜花性别分化之间没有明确的相关性;19片叶展平时期,节瓜茎尖Put、Spd和多胺总量与植株雌花分化比例呈极显著的正相关,而Cad则与雌花分化比例呈极显著的负相关。在两个取样时期,复合指标Spd/PA都与植株雌花分化比例呈显著的正相关,而（Put＋Cad）/（Spd＋Spm）均与之呈显著的负相关,可以较好地预测节瓜的花性别分化状况。
