外源GSH对盐胁迫下番茄幼苗生长及抗逆生理指标的影响

采用营养液栽培法,研究外源谷胱甘肽(GSH)对NaCl胁迫下番茄幼苗生长、根系活力、电解质渗透率和丙二醛(MDA)、脯氨酸(Pro)、可溶性糖含量以及超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性的影响,为利用外源物质减轻盐胁迫伤害提供理论依据。结果显示:(1)NaCl胁迫显著抑制了番茄幼苗的生长、根系活力和SOD、POD、CAT活性,提高了电解质渗透率及MDA、Pro、可溶性糖含量;(2)外源喷施GSH能够诱导NaCl胁迫下番茄幼苗叶片抗氧化酶SOD、POD、CAT活性上调,电解质渗透率及MDA含量下降,Pro和可溶性糖含量恢复至对照水平;(3)外源喷施还原型谷胱甘肽抑制剂(BSO)使NaCl胁迫下番茄幼苗的根系活力以及抗氧化酶SOD、POD、CAT活性下降,脯氨酸含量提高;(4)喷施GSH可诱导BSO和NaCl共处理番茄植株的根系活力、SOD、POD、CAT活性提高,MDA和Pro含量降低。研究表明,外源GSH可通过提高促进盐胁迫下番茄幼苗植株渗透调节能力及清除活性氧的酶促系统的防御能力、降低细胞膜脂过氧化程度、保护膜结构的完整性,从而有效缓解NaCl胁迫对番茄幼苗生长的抑制,提高其耐盐性。

Spd浸种对盐胁迫下番茄（Solanum lycopersicum)幼苗的保护效应

通过水培试验,研究了100 mmol/L NaCl盐浓度下,0.25 mmol/L Spd浸种处理对两个番茄品种白果强丰(耐盐基因型)和江蔬14号(盐敏感基因型)植株干重、根冠比(R/T)、幼苗叶片和根系抗氧化酶活性及活性氧含量的影响.具体试验处理如下:(a) 对照(蒸馏水浸种+ 0 mmol/L NaCl),(b) NaCl (蒸馏水浸种+ 100 mmol/L NaCl),(c) Spd(0.25 mmol/L Spd浸种 +100 mmol/L NaCl).结果表明,在盐胁迫下,两个番茄品种幼苗叶片和根系内超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性升高,H2O2含量和O·-2产生速率增高,幼苗生长受到抑制,幼苗地上部、地下部干重均明显低于对照,R/T增大,且江蔬14号的变化幅度大于白果强丰.Spd浸种处理降低了盐胁迫下番茄幼苗叶片和根系内O·-2产生速率和H2O2含量,进一步提高了SOD、POD和CAT活性,促进幼苗干重增加,缓解了盐胁迫对植株的伤害.与耐盐基因型番茄品种白果强丰相比,Spd浸种处理对盐敏感基因型番茄品种江蔬14号的作用效果更为明显.总之,Spd浸种处理通过提高盐胁迫下植株体内抗氧化酶活性,降低ROS水平来缓解盐胁迫对番茄幼苗的伤害,提高幼苗耐盐能力.     

夜间低温对番茄幼苗磷素吸收及转运的影响

以‘辽园多丽’番茄幼苗为试材,采用营养液栽培模式,以夜温15℃为对照,对夜间低温(6℃)影响番茄幼苗磷素吸收及转运过程的因素进行研究。结果显示:(1)夜间低温胁迫导致番茄幼苗根系活力受到显著抑制。(2)夜间低温条件下,番茄幼苗根系中酸性磷酸酶活性无明显变化,而其地上部酸性磷酸酶活性增强,且以叶片中活性增加较大。(3)夜间低温胁迫使根系中磷酸盐转运蛋白基因LePT1和LePT2的相对表达量较对照增加,地上部磷酸盐转运蛋白基因LePT1的表达受到抑制,且叶片中受到的抑制作用更显著。(4)夜间低温胁迫处理营养液中剩余磷素含量始终多于对照;其番茄幼苗地下部和地上部中磷素绝对含量均下降,且叶片比茎的下降幅度更大。(5)夜间低温胁迫使番茄幼苗伤流强度下降,伤流液中磷素含量随着处理天数的增加而增加,在处理第9天时极显著高于对照。研究表明,夜间低温导致番茄幼苗根系活力降低,诱导植株中磷酸盐转运蛋白基因LePT1的表达下调以及伤流强度降低,从而引起磷素由茎向叶片中的转运过程受到明显抑制。     

不同比例红蓝光对番茄幼苗生长和光合作用的影响

为了探索番茄幼苗生长发育对红蓝组合光的响应机制,本试验采用发光二极管(LED)精量调制光源,以番茄品种‘SV0313TG’为试材,设红光(R)、蓝光(B)和红蓝组合光(9R1B、6R1B、3R1B、1R1B、1R3B)7个处理,以白光为对照,研究不同比例红蓝光质对番茄幼苗生长、光合色素含量、光合特性、叶绿素荧光参数及根系活力的影响.结果表明:不同比例红蓝光质处理对番茄幼苗生长的影响具有明显差异.红光显著促进幼苗株高增加,比叶面积增大,胞间CO₂浓度提高,但PSⅡ最大光化学效率(F_v/F_m)、PSⅡ实际光化学效率(Ф_PSⅡ)降低,根系生长受阻,根系活力下降,壮苗指数降低;蓝光下幼苗生长受到明显抑制,叶绿素含量降低,但叶绿素a/b 值升高;红蓝组合光有利于番茄幼苗的生长发育,3R1B处理下植株干物质量、叶绿素含量和光合性能均显著提高,幼苗生长健壮,壮苗指数最大.综上,红蓝组合光能够增加番茄幼苗叶片光合色素含量,提高光合效率,促进植株生长,尤以3R1B处理最佳.     

亚适温条件下缺铁和硝酸盐胁迫对番茄幼苗生长及铁吸收的影响

研究亚适温(昼/夜18 ℃/12 ℃)条件下缺铁和硝酸盐胁迫对番茄幼苗生长及铁吸收的影响.结果表明: 与适温对照相比,亚适温条件下番茄幼苗生长受到明显的抑制,株高、叶面积显著变小,干物质积累下降;亚适温下缺铁对番茄幼苗生长的影响比适温下缺铁的影响大.亚适温条件下,缺铁、硝酸盐胁迫及二者同时胁迫的番茄幼苗株高与无胁迫处理差异不显著,但幼苗叶面积明显变小,电解质渗漏率、根系活力和三价铁还原酶活性明显增加,叶绿素含量降低;根总长、根表面积、根体积及根尖数明显减小;幼苗根、茎、叶中铁含量明显降低.亚适温下硝酸盐胁迫以及缺铁与硝酸盐二者同时胁迫加重了番茄幼苗干物质积累的减少、电解质渗漏率的增加,以及减少了对铁离子的吸收.Fe²⁺对K⁺和Ca²⁺吸收具有拮抗作用,不同器官中的表现有所差异;降低营养液中的Fe²⁺浓度可使番茄幼苗的缺铁症状更加严重.     

外源NO对Cu胁迫下番茄Cu的亚细胞分布和化学形态的影响

采用营养液培养方法,研究外源NO供体硝普钠(SNP)处理对50 μmol·L^-1Cu²⁺胁迫下番茄幼苗Cu的亚细胞分布和化学形态的影响.结果表明： Cu胁迫下,番茄幼苗的生物量和株高显著降低33.7%和23.1%,外源NO能够显著缓解这种抑制作用,但各器官中Cu的含量和累积量仍显著升高.Cu胁迫下,番茄幼苗各器官的Cu含量和累积量大小依次为根系>叶片>茎>叶柄,幼苗根系吸收的Cu向地上部的转运大幅降低,外源NO只能缓解而不能消除这种作用.外源NO可以使Cu胁迫下幼苗各器官的液泡和细胞壁中Cu含量显著上升,细胞器中Cu含量降低,从而减轻过多Cu对胞质生理生化代谢的伤害,增强组织细胞对Cu的耐性.外源NO可以提高番茄幼苗根系中醋酸提取态铜（F_HAc）、茎中氯化钠提取态铜（F_NaCl）、叶柄中F_HAc、叶片中乙醇提取态铜（F_E）和F_NaCl的含量,降低水溶态铜（F_W）的含量与比例,以降低过多铜的生物毒性.

采用发光二极管(LED)精确调制不同光谱能量分布,以荧光灯光照为对照,研究光质对番茄和莴苣幼苗生长及叶绿体超微结构的影响.结果表明：红光下番茄、莴苣幼苗的可溶性糖、淀粉和碳水化合物含量均显著高于对照,叶片叶绿体中淀粉粒膨大显著;蓝光极显著抑制了番茄下胚轴伸长,显著提高了莴苣和番茄幼苗叶片叶绿素a和类胡萝卜素含量;红蓝光下莴苣幼苗叶片的可溶性糖、淀粉、碳水化合物、蔗糖含量和C/N均达到最大值且显著高于红光处理,番茄和莴苣幼苗的主根显著伸长,幼苗叶片中叶绿体形态正常,基粒增多,基质片层清晰,淀粉粒体积明显小于红光处理.光质对植物幼苗的光形态建成、生长、碳氮代谢及叶绿体发育有显著影响;红光下光合产物积累显著但运输受阻严重,在红光中添加适量蓝光更有利于莴苣幼苗的碳水化合物积累,并可促进幼苗根系生长,有利于同化产物输出.     

Epibrassinolide-inhibition of development of excised, adventitious and intact roots of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum): comparison with the effects of steroidal estrogens

The brassinosteroid, 24-epibrassinolide, caused observable inhibition of the growth of aseptically-cultured excised tomato ( Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. Best of All) roots at a concentration of 0.01 μ M . Root formation and outgrowth in tomato shoot cuttings and root biomass in intact tomato seedlings were also depressed by epibrassinolide, but only at a higher concentration (0.1μ M ). Concentrations of the steroidal estrogens, estrone and estradiol (as sulphate derivatives), in excess of 1.0 μ M , reduced cultured root growth as well as root number and total (but not mean) root length in shoot cuttings. Seedling root growth was only slightly inhibited by estradiol but not by estrone. Both epibrassinolide and estrogens caused morphological abnormalities, such as epinasty and leaf-inrolling in cuttings and seedlings. Epibrassinolide stimulated extension growth of the hypocotyl and epicotyl in cuttings and of the hypocotyl in seedlings, but estrogens exerted no effects on shoot growth.     

Growth of Carrot and Tomato from Oxamyl-coated Seed and Control of Meloidogyne hapla

Oxamyl was coated on carrot (Daucus carota L. cv. Spartan Fancy-80) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. cv. Glamour) seeds with a polymer sticker for the control of Meloidogyne hapla. The sticker diluted in water 1:1 delayed carrot seedling emergence. Oxamyl at 40 mg/ml in a 1:5 dilution of sticker lowered the rate of carrot seedling emergence until day 13 and plant growth until day 28. Oxamyl at 20 or 40 mg/ml in a 1:5 dilution of sticker on carrot seeds planted in M. hapla-infested muck soil resulted in fewer galled tap roots and fewer galls per root system 4 weeks after planting. Tap root lengths were greater than those of the control. Tomato seedling emergence was delayed and top and root weights were reduced, relative to the control, at 25 days by the sticker diluted 1:1 to 1:3. Oxamyl at 20 or 40 mg/ml in a 1:5 diluted sticker delayed tomato seedling emergence. Top weights of tomato seedlings from seeds coated with 20 mg/ml of oxamyl in a 1:5 diluted sticker planted in a silt loam were greater than control top weights at 4 and 6 weeks. Root weights were greater than those of the control only at 4 weeks. There were fewer galls per gram of root on seedlings from oxamyl-coated seeds and fewer juveniles per pot of soil, relative to the controls, only at 4 weeks.     

寡雄腐霉发酵液对番茄生长的影响及对灰霉病的防治作用

Analyzing photosynthetic activity and growth of Solanum lycopersicum seedlings exposed to different light qualities

To investigate how light quality influences tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L) seedlings, we examined changes in plant growth, chloroplast ultrastructure, photosynthetic parameters and some photosynthesis-related genes expression levels. For this, tomato plants were grown under different light qualities with the same photosynthetic photon flux density: red (R), blue (B), yellow (Y), green (G) and white (W) lights. Our results revealed that, compared with plants grown under W light, the growth of plants grown under monochromatic lights was inhibited with the growth reduction being more significant in the plants grown under Y and G lights. However, the monochromatic lights had their own effects on the growth and photosynthetic function of tomato seedlings. The plant height was reduced under blue light, but expression of rbcS, rbcL, psbA, psbB genes was up-regulated, and the ΦPSII and electron transport rate (ETR) values were enhanced. More starch grains were accumulated in chloroplasts. The root elongation, net photosynthetic rate (Pn), NPQ and rbcS and psbA genes expression were promoted under red light. Yellow light- and green light-illuminated plants grew badly with their lower Rubisco content and Pn value observed, and less starch grains accumulated in chloroplast. However, less influence was noted of light quality on chloroplast structure. Compared with yellow light, the values of ΦPSII, ETR, qP and NPQ of plants exposed to green light were significantly increased, suggesting that green light was beneficial to both the development of photosynthetic apparatus to some extent.     

Population Dynamics,Root Penetration,and Feeding Behavior of Pratylenchus agilis in Monoxenic Root Cultures of Corn,Tomato, and Soybean

Population dynamics, rate of root penetration, and external root feeding behavior of Pratylenchus agilis (Pa) in monoxenic cultures of intact corn seedlings and root explants of corn, tomato, and soybean were studied. In descending order of suitability as hosts were I. O. Chief corn, Rutgers tomato, and Williams soybean. Soybean entries Kent, Pickett 71, PI 90763, and Essex were poor hosts. Numbers of eggs and vermiform Pa in the agar medium indicated total fecundity and host suitability. Agar, sand, or soil as support media did not appear to affect Pa root penetration, but the rate of corn root growth did. Whereas most vermiform Pa and eggs were in roots, substantial numbers appeared able to feed and complete their life cycle as ectoparasites on root epidermal cells and root hairs.     

Biomechanical Response of the Root System in Tomato Seedlings under Wind Disturbance

Wind disturbance as a green method can effectively prevent the overgrowth of tomato seedlings, and its mechanism may be related to root system mechanics. This study characterized the biophysical mechanical properties of taproot and lateral roots of tomato seedlings at five seedling ages and seedling substrates with three different moisture content. The corresponding root system-substrate finite element (FE) model was then developed and validated. The study showed that seedling age significantly affected the biomechanical properties of the taproot and lateral roots of the seedlings and that moisture content significantly affected the biomechanical properties of the seedling substrate (p < 0.05). The established FE model was sensitive to wind speed, substrate moisture content, strong seedling index, and seedling age and was robust. The multiple linear regression equations obtained could predict the maximum stress and strain of the root system of tomato seedlings in the wind field. The strong seedling index had the greatest impact on the biomechanical response of the seedling root system during wind disturbance, followed by wind speed. In contrast, seedling age had no significant effect on the biomechanical response of the root system during wind disturbance. In the simulation, no mechanical damage was observed on the tissue of the seedling root system, but there were some strain behaviors. Based on the plant stress resistance, wind disturbance may affect the growth and development of the root system in the later growth stage. In this study, finite element and statistical analysis methods were combined to provide an effective approach for in-depth analysis of the biomechanical mechanisms of wind disturbances that inhibit tomato seedlings’ growth from the root system’s perspective.     

Development of Multi-Component Transplant Mixes for Suppression of Meloidogyne incognita on Tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum)

The effects of combinations of organic amendments, phytochemicals, and plant-growth promoting rhizobacteria on tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) germination, transplant growth, and infectivity of Meloidogyne incognita were evaluated. Two phytochemicals (citral and benzaldehyde), three organic amendments (pine bark, chitin, and hemicellulose), and three bacteria (Serratia marcescens, Brevibacterium iodinum, and Pseudomonas fluorescens) were assessed. Increasing rates of benzaldehyde and citral reduced nematode egg viability in vitro. Benzaldehyde was 100% efficacious as a nematicide against juveniles, whereas citral reduced juvenile viability to less than 20% at all rates tested. Benzaldehyde increased tomato seed germination and root weight, whereas citral decreased both. High rates of pine bark or chitin reduced plant growth but not seed germination, whereas low rates of chitin increased shoot length, shoot weight, and root weight; improved root condition; and reduced galling. The combination of chitin and benzaldehyde significantly improved tomato transplant growth and reduced galling. While each of the bacterial isolates contributed to increased plant growth in combination treatments, only Brevibacterium iodinum applied alone significantly improved plant growth.
