水稻剑叶生长过程中光合电子流传递分配及其与光合作用的关系

以气体交换和叶绿素荧光测定相结合的方法研究了水稻剑叶生长过程中光合电子传递分配以及与光合速率和叶绿素含量之间的关系 。两种高产水稻品种‘培矮64S/E32’和‘特三矮2号’的剑叶总的光合电子流JF和净光合速率Pn在移栽后50～70 d较高而相对稳定,在80 d后急剧下降。参与碳还原的非环式光合电子流Jc的降低比JF和Pn早。JF与Jc和光合速率与叶绿素含量之间存在正相关性。非环式光合电子传递分配于光呼吸的电子流的比例Jo/JF在50～70 d和80 d后约有35%～50%的电子流分配到光呼吸。     

施氮和大气CO2浓度升高对小麦旗叶光合电子传递和分配的影响

采用开顶式气室盆栽培养小麦,设计2个大气CO2浓度(正常:400 μmol.mol-1;高:760 μmol·mol-1)、2个氮素水平(0和200 mg·kg-1土)的组合处理,通过测定小麦抽穗期旗叶氮素和叶绿素浓度、光合速率(Pn)-胞间CO2浓度(C1)响应曲线及荧光动力学参数,来测算小麦叶片光合电子传递速率等,研究了高大气CO2浓度下施氮对小麦旗叶光合能量分配的影响.结果表明:与正常大气CO2浓度相比,高大气CO2浓度下小麦叶片氮浓度和叶绿素浓度降低,高氮处理的小麦叶片叶绿素a/b升高.施氮后小麦叶片PSⅡ最大光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ反应中心最大量子产额(Fv'/Fm')、PSⅡ反应中心的开放比例(qr)和PSⅡ反应中心实际光化学效率(φPSⅡ)在大气CO2浓度升高后无明显变化,虽然叶片非光化学猝灭系数(NPQ)显著降低,但PSⅡ总电子传递速率(JF)无明显增加;不施氮处理的Fv'/Fm'、φPSⅡ和NPQ在高大气CO2浓度下显著降低,尽管Fv/Fm和qp无明显变化,JF仍显著下降.施氮后小麦叶片JF增加,参与光化学反应的非环式电子流传递速率(Jc)明显升高.大气CO2浓度升高使参与光呼吸的非环式电子流传递速率(J0)、Rubisco氧化速率(V0)、光合电子的光呼吸/光化学传递速率比(J0/Jc)和Rubisco氧化/羧化比(V0/Vc)降低,但使Jc和Rubisco羧化速率(Vc)增加.因此,高大气CO2浓度下小麦叶片氮浓度和叶绿素浓度降低,而增施氮素使通过PSⅡ反应中心的电子流速率显著增加,促进了光合电子流向光化学方向的传递,使更多的电子进入Rubisco羧化过程,Pn显著升高.     

4种木本植物叶片的光合电子传递和吸收光能分配特性对光强的适应

以气体交换和叶绿素荧光测定相结合的方法研究了亚热带自然林乔木荷树、黧蒴和林下灌木九节、罗伞幼苗的光合电子传递及激发能利用的分配对生长光强的适应特性。4种植物生长于100%、36%和16%的自然光下8个月,叶片的光化学速率和热能耗散速率随光强增大而提高,热能耗散占总的光能吸收的比例也因光强不同而改变,16%光下的相对热耗散率约为40%～45%,100%自然光下增大至50%～75%。叶片总的非环式电子流速率及其分配到光呼吸的比例在100%光强下最高。乔木和灌木的电子传递和光能分配特性在16%光下相似,在100%光下差别较明显。除灌木种有较高的热耗散比例之外,其余的参数皆比乔木的低。结果表明乔木与灌木皆可通过提高激发能热耗散比例和提高光合电子传递向光呼吸的比例来适应于高光强条件。

气体交换与荧光同步测量估算植物光合电子流的分配

光合电子流分配是植物光合控制的一个重要环节。然而,传统电子流分配的计算方法存在诸多问题尚未引起人们的注意,如:(1)低估了光呼吸每释放一个CO2分子所消耗的电子数;(2)混淆了相对电子传递速率和绝对电子传递速率;(3)忽略了除碳同化和光呼吸外的其他电子流分配途径;(4)难以准确获取光下暗呼吸速率值,从而导致碳同化电子流(JC)及光呼吸速率(Rp)的不准确估算等。以小麦和大豆气体交换与荧光同步测量数据为例,结果表明大豆电子传递速率与碳同化两者对光强的响应一致性较好,同时达到最大值;而小麦的一致性相对较差,说明电子传递速率和碳同化并非完全一致,推测认为有可能与作物对同化产物输出的模式不同有关。通过光呼吸速率换算出的电子流(12×Rp)与实际测量电子流(ΔJO)之间存在较大的差异;另外,传统方法估算出的光呼吸速率(估算值)与光呼吸测量值之间也存在较大差异,分析认为这主要是由于绝对光合速率与相对电子传递速率之间差异造成。     

高温对水稻黄叶突变体剑叶光合特性和叶绿体超微结构的影响

以水稻黄叶突变体为材料,进行高温胁迫处理(9:30～17:30,40℃;其它时间段与自然温度相同),研究高温胁迫对其剑叶光合特性和叶绿体超微结构的影响。结果表明:高温胁迫使水稻黄叶突变体剑叶净光合速率(Pn)、PSⅡ原初光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、PSⅡ光量子效率(фPSⅡ)和非循环光合电子传递速率(ETR)显著降低,初始荧光(F0)显著增加,同时使剑叶叶绿素、可溶性蛋白质含量显著降低,细胞膜透性显著增加,叶片的叶绿体内基粒和基质片层模糊、疏松,结构紊乱。研究发现,40℃高温胁迫致使水稻黄叶突变体剑叶叶绿体超微结构破坏,引起PSⅡ反应中心的光化学效率降低,最终造成叶片光合能力减弱。     

光强对4种亚热带森林植物光合电子传递向光呼吸分配的影舷

研究夏季生长于自然光和遮阴降低光强至36%和16%下的4种亚热带自然林植物幼苗的光合特性.除荷树外,黧蒴和林下灌木九节与罗伞在自然光下的光合速率比36%光下低,出现光合驯化(下调)现象.高光强下总的光合电子传递速率JF及其向光呼吸传递的比率JO/JF明显增大.JO/JF在自然光下的叶片中高达0.5～0.6,与提高的Rubisco氧化速率、乙醇酸氧化酶活性和光呼吸速率相一致,表明提高光合电子向光呼吸途径的传递比率是高光高温下森林植物的一种保护性调节机制.     

施氮和大气CO2浓度升高对小麦旗叶光合电子传递和分配的影响

采用开顶式气室盆栽培养小麦,设计2个大气CO₂浓度（正常：400 μmol·mol^-1;高：760 μmol·mol^-1）、2个氮素水平（0和200 mg·kg^-1土）的组合处理,通过测定小麦抽穗期旗叶氮素和叶绿素浓度、光合速率（P_n）-胞间CO₂浓度（C_i）响应曲线及荧光动力学参数,来测算小麦叶片光合电子传递速率等,研究了高大气CO₂浓度下施氮对小麦旗叶光合能量分配的影响.结果表明：与正常大气CO₂浓度相比,高大气CO₂浓度下小麦叶片氮浓度和叶绿素浓度降低,高氮处理的小麦叶片叶绿素a/b升高.施氮后小麦叶片PSⅡ最大光化学效率（F_v/F_m）、PSⅡ反应中心最大量子产额（F_v′/F_m′）、PSⅡ反应中心的开放比例（q_p）和PSⅡ反应中心实际光化学效率（Φ_PSⅡ）在大气CO₂浓度升高后无明显变化,虽然叶片非光化学猝灭系数（NPQ）显著降低,但PSⅡ总电子传递速率（J_F）无明显增加;不施氮处理的F_v′/F_m′、Φ_PSⅡ和NPQ在高大气CO₂浓度下显著降低,尽管F_v/F_m和q_P无明显变化,J_F仍显著下降.施氮后小麦叶片J_F增加,参与光化学反应的非环式电子流传递速率(J_C)明显升高.大气CO₂浓度升高使参与光呼吸的非环式电子流传递速率(J₀)、Rubisco氧化速率（V₀）、光合电子的光呼吸/光化学传递速率比（J₀/J_C）和Rubisco氧化/羧化比（V₀/V_C）降低,但使J_C和Rubisco羧化速率（V_C）增加.因此,高大气CO₂浓度下小麦叶片氮浓度和叶绿素浓度降低,而增施氮素使通过PSⅡ反应中心的电子流速率显著增加,促进了光合电子流向光化学方向的传递,使更多的电子进入Rubisco羧化过程,P_n显著升高.     

不同施氮量对杂交酸模叶片光合电子流分配的影响

研究了不同施氮量对高蛋白含量植物杂交酸模(Rumex patientiaxR.tianschanicus)叶片中总光合电子流和分配在碳同化、光呼吸、Mehler反应以及氮代谢上的光合电子流的影响,并研究了不同施氮量对硝酸还原酶(NR)和谷氨酰胺合成酶(GS)的活性、叶片的蛋白质含量及叶绿素含量的影响。结果表明随着施氮量的增加,硝酸还原酶和谷氨酰胺合成酶的活性都显著提高,同时更多的光合电子流分配到氮代谢和光呼吸。氮代谢所需光合电子流约占总光合电子流的15%～21%。缺氮并没有造成光合电子流向Mehler反应分配的增加。     

高温胁迫对水稻剑叶光合和叶绿素荧光特征的影响

采用盆栽方法在人工气候箱内对超级杂交稻组合"天优998"4个生育期(抽穗期、乳熟期、蜡熟期和完熟期)分别进行5个高温处理(最高温度分别设定为32、35、38、40和42℃,日较差为6℃,每个处理为期5d,每天2h,以自然条件下生长的水稻为对照),研究了高温胁迫对水稻剑叶光合和荧光特征的影响。结果表明:高温对水稻剑叶光合和荧光特征具有显著影响,而且因高温处理、生育期、参数的不同而有差异,温度越高影响越大;高温处理后水稻剑叶叶绿素含量(SPAD)、净光合速率(Pn)、气孔导度(Gs)下降,胞间CO2浓度(Ci)上升;光化学效率(Fv/Fm)、实际量子产量(ΦPSII)、表观电子传递速率(ETR)、光化学猝灭系数(qP)、PSⅡ光化学反应(P)下降,初始荧光(Fo)、非光化学猝灭系数(qN)、其他热耗散(E)上升;当最高温度大于35℃时,4个生育期的光合和荧光指标大多发生了显著变化,当最高温度大于38℃时,则大幅下降;抽穗期和乳熟期Pn、Gs下降显著、Ci上升显著,蜡熟期和完熟期SPAD下降显著,但高温下抽穗期、乳熟期水稻剑叶Fv/Fm的下降幅度和Fo的上升幅度比蜡熟期、完熟期大;高温胁迫对水稻剑叶Pn的影响比SPAD大,抽穗和乳熟期水稻剑叶Pn下降主要是由气孔因素引起,而蜡熟期和完熟期剑叶Pn的下降则主要是由非气孔因素所致。

放牧对牧草光合作用、呼吸作用和氮、碳吸收与转运的影响

研究放牧对草地植物生理活动的影响,对于揭示草地放牧演替的生理机制有重要意义.大量研究表明,家畜放牧对牧草光合作用、呼吸作用以及C和N吸收与转运的影响,可以分为生理伤害和生理恢复2个阶段.放牧通过改变草地冠层结构影响牧草光合作用,净光合作用速率短期内迅速下降,随着叶面积指数增加又逐渐上升,呼吸作用有相似的变化趋势.牧草放牧后再生长所需的C和N最初主要来自根系和留茬中的贮藏物质,此后随着牧草生长恢复逐渐由同化作用供给,C代谢与土壤N水平负相关.放牧后牧草生理活动变化与牧草遗传特性、种间竞争、家畜放牧特征、非生物环境等因素密切相关.     

Kinetics and thermodynamics of peroxidase- and laccase-catalyzed oxidation of N-substituted phenothiazines and phenoxazines

N -substituted phenothiazines (PTs) and phenoxazines (POs) catalyzed by fungal Coprinus cinereus peroxidase and Polyporus pinsitus laccase were investigated at pH 4–10. In the case of peroxidase, an apparent bimolecular rate constant (expressed as k _cat/K _m) varied from 1 ×10⁷M⁻¹s⁻¹to 2.6×10⁸M⁻¹s⁻¹ at pH 7.0. The constants for PO oxidation were higher in comparison to PT. pH dependence revealed two or three ionizable groups with pK _a values of 4.9–5.7 and 7.7–9.7 that significantly affected the activity of peroxidase. Single-turnover experiments showed that the limiting step of PT oxidation was reduction of compound II and second-order rate constants were obtained which were consistent with the constants at steady-state conditions. Laccase-catalyzed PT and PO oxidation rates were lower; apparent bimolecular rate constants varied from 1.8×10⁵M⁻¹s⁻¹ to 2.0×10⁷M⁻¹s⁻¹ at pH 5.3. PO constants were higher in comparison to PT, as was the case with peroxidase. The dependence of the apparent bimolecular constants of compound II or copper type 1 reduction, in the case of peroxidase or laccase, respectively, was analyzed in the framework of the Marcus outer-sphere electron-transfer theory. Peroxidase-catalyzed reactions with PT, as well as PO, fitted the same hyperbolic dependence with a maximal oxidation rate of 1.6×10⁸M⁻¹s⁻¹ and a reorganization energy of 0.30 eV. The respective parameters for laccase were 5.0×10⁷M⁻¹s⁻¹ and 0.29 eV. Received: 20 September 1999 / Accepted: 24 February 2000     

Coiled-coil nanomechanics and uncoiling and unfolding of the superhelix and alpha-helices of myosin

The nanomechanical properties of the coiled-coils of myosin are fundamentally important in understanding muscle assembly and contraction. Force spectra of single molecules of double-headed myosin, single-headed myosin, and coiled-coil tail fragments were acquired with an atomic force microscope and displayed characteristic triphasic force-distance responses to stretch: a rise phase (R) and a plateau phase (P) and an exponential phase (E). The R and P phases arise mainly from the stretching of the coiled-coils, with the hinge region being the main contributor to the rise phase at low force. Only the E phase was analyzable by the worm-like chain model of polymer elasticity. Restrained molecular mechanics simulations on an existing x-ray structure of scallop S2 yielded force spectra with either two or three phases, depending on the mode of stretch. It revealed that coiled-coil chains separate completely near the end of the P phase and the stretching of the unfolded chains gives rise to the E phase. Extensive conformational searching yielded a P phase force near 40 pN that agreed well with the experimental value. We suggest that the flexible and elastic S2 region, particularly the hinge region, may undergo force-induced unfolding and extend reversibly during actomyosin powerstroke.     

白术同源四倍体的诱导和鉴定及其与二倍体过氧化物酶的比较

Synthesis of hapten and conjugates of coumestrol and development of immunoassay

3-O-Carboxymethylcoumestrol was prepared as the hapten for immunoassay by a partial alkylation of coumestrol with ethyl chloroacetate in acetone alkalized with potassium carbonate. 3-O-Ethoxycarbonylmethylcoumestrol was separated by column chromatography and finally was hydrolyzed with formic acid. 1H and 13C NMR data (APT, COSY, HMQC, and HMBC) revealed that the reaction was regioselective, as 3-O-ethoxycarboxymethylcoumestrol was the only monosubstituted derivative. The hapten was then conjugated to bovine serum albumin and used for immunization of rabbits. A radioimmunoassay (RIA) system was established based on the polyclonal antiserum and a 125I-labeled hapten-tyrosine methyl ester conjugate as the radioligand. Parameters of the RIA: sensitivity: 12 pg per tube, 50% intercept: 140 pg per tube, working range: 20-4000 pg per tube. The cross-reactivity of a panel isoflavonoid and lignan phytoestrogens was either negligible (e.g. formononetin 0.07%; biochanin A 0.06%) or not detectable at all. The major immunoreactive peak in HPLC fractions from an alfalfa extract had the same retention time as coumestrol standard and represented 94.8% of the signal. The remaining 5.2% of immunoreactivity was distributed between five minor peaks. We conclude that after the validation for particular matrices, the method will be a useful tool for analysis of coumestrol, especially in low volume and low concentration samples.     

Morphology and putative function of the colon and cloaca of marine and freshwater snakes

Among tetrapods, evidence for postrenal modification of the urine by the distal digestive tract (including the colon and cloaca) is highly variable. Birds and bladderless reptiles are of interest because the colon and cloaca represent the only sites from which water and ions can be reclaimed from the urine secreted by the kidney. For animals occupying desiccating environments (e.g., deserts and marine environments), postrenal modification of the urine may directly contribute to the maintenance of hypo‐osmotic body fluids. We compared the morphology and distribution of key proteins in the colon, cloaca, and urogenital ducts of watersnakes from marine (Nerodia clarkii clarkii) and freshwater (Nerodia fasciata) habitats. Specifically, we examined the epithelia of each tissue for evidence of mucus production by examining the distribution of mucopolysaccharides, and for evidence of water/ion regulation by examining the distribution of Na⁺/K⁺‐ATPase (NKA), Na⁺/K⁺/Cl^? cotransporter (NKCC), and aquaporin 3 (AQP3). NKCC localized to the basolateral epithelium of the colon, urodeal sphincter, and proctodeum, consistent with a role in secretion of Na⁺, Cl^?, and K⁺ from the tissue, but NKA was not detected in the colon or any compartment of the cloaca. Interestingly, NKA was detected in the basolateral epithelium of the ureters, suggesting the urothelium may play a role in active ion transport. AQP3 was detected in the ureters and coprodeal complex, consistent with a role in urinary and fecal dehydration or, potentially, in the production of the watery component of the mucus secreted by the coprodeal complex. Since no differences in general cloacal morphology, production of mucus, or the distribution of ion transporters/water channels were detected between the two species, cloacal osmoregulation may either be regulated by proteins not examined in this study or may not be responsible for the differential success of N. c. clarkii and N. fasciata in marine habitats.
