Salt-inducible betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase from sugar beet: cDNA cloning and expression

Members of the Chenopodiaceae, such as sugar beet and spinach, accumulate glycine betaine in response to salinity or drought stress. The last enzyme in the glycine betaine biosynthetic pathway is betaine aldehyde dehydrogenase (BADH). In sugar beet the activity of BADH was found to increase two- to four-fold in both leaves and roots as the NaCl level in the irrigation solution was raised from 0 to 500 mM. This increase in BADH activity was paralleled by an increase in level of translatable BADH mRNA. Several cDNAs encoding BADH were cloned from a gt10 libary representing poly(A)⁺ RNA from salinized leaves of sugar beet plants, by hybridization with a spinach BADH cDNA. Three nearly full-length cDNA clones were confirmed to encode BADH by their nucleotide and deduced amino acid sequence identity to spinach BADH; these clones showed minor nucleotide sequence differences consistent with their being of two different BADH alleles. The clones averaged 1.7 kb and contained an open reading frame predicting a polypeptide of 500 amino acids with 83% identity to spinach BADH. RNA gel blot analysis of total RNA showed that salinization to 500 mM NaCl increased BADH mRNA levels four-fold in leaves and three-fold in the taproot. DNA gel blot analyses indicated the presence of at least two copies of BADH in the haploid sugar beet genome.     

Tracer studies of gas circulation in Nuphar: 18O2 and 14CO2 transport

The objective of this study was to investigate the behaviour of different legumes against salinity and water stress, thus trying to discover simultaneous adaptations to both stresses. The nitrogen fixation, transpiration, predawn leaf water potential, and stomatal response of Medicago sativa L. (cvs. Tierra de Campos and Aragon), Trifolium repens L. (cv. Aberystwyth S-184) and T. brachycalycinum Katzn. et Morley (= T. subterraneum L. cv. Clare) were compared at three levels of stress (0.05, 0.3 and 0.5 MPa of either NaCl or polyethylene glycol 6000) in nutrient solution. The plants were stressed for three days and then returned to control nutrient solution. The changes in the parameters analyzed were dependent on the proportion of stress treatments and the nature of the species, always being greater in plants from PEG than from NaCl solutions. Transfer of lucerne and subclover plants from NaCl at 0.05 MPa to a non-saline medium resulted in an increase of nitrogen fixation above the level of the non-salinized control plants, especially significant in lucerne. Analysis of possible inorganic impurities in commercial PEG suggest that such type of impurities are not responsible for the toxic effects reported. Plant damage resulting from PEG treatment was apparently due to penetrations of PEG (as determined qualitatively by using the tetraiodinebismuthic acid technique) or low-molecular organic impurities into the plant. – The results are discussed as part of the adaptation of the different species to salinity and water stress. The best performance was given by Tierra de Campos.     

Measurement of Free Choline in Plant Leaves by Capillary Electrophoresis

A low pH capillary electrophoresis (CE) was used for the measurement of free choline in plant leaves. Choline in the leaf extract was first converted to the benzoyl ester and put into CE. A well-resolved peak in the electropherogram was easily obtained. Involvement of enzymes in a two-step oxidation of choline to glycine betaine was evaluated in different plant species with the same mehod developed for glycine betaine and betaine aldehyde.     

Variation in growth and ion accumulation between two selected populations of Trifolium repens L. differing in salt tolerance

Two divergent populations of T. repens cv. Haifa developed from two generations of recurrent selection for shoot chloride concentration, were grown in the greenhouse at 0 and 40 mol m^–3 NaCl. Over two harvest cycles at 40 mol m^–3 NaCl, the population selected for a low concentration of chloride in the shoot maintained a significantly lower chloride and sodium concentration compared with those plants selected for a high shoot chloride concentration. The distribution of chloride in the shoots was further examined in a subsample of plants from both populations. In all plants, concentrations of chloride were lower in the expanding and fully expanded leaves than in the older leaf tissue or petioles.While there were no significant differences in the photosynthetic rates between lines, shoot yields and relative leaf expansion rates were higher in the low chloride population. Plant death was greater in plants selected for high shoot chloride. These results suggest that selections based on measurements of low shoot chloride concentrations may be successful in developing a cultivar of T. repens with improved salt tolerance.
