外源亚精胺对Ca(NO3)2胁迫下黄瓜幼苗生长和活性氧代谢的影响

以温室专用黄瓜品种'津优3号'幼苗为材料,采用营养液栽培方法,研究了叶面喷施1 mmol·L-1亚精胺(Spd)对60 mmol·L-1硝酸钙胁迫下黄瓜幼苗生长和植株体内活性氧代谢的影响.结果显示,Ca(NO3)2胁迫下,黄瓜幼苗叶片和根系O-·2产生速率显著增加,超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)等抗氧化酶活性升高,同时MDA含量和相对电导率明显提高,显著降低了黄瓜幼苗的株高、鲜重和干重;外源喷施Spd提高了硝酸钙胁迫下黄瓜幼苗叶片和根系SOD、POD和CAT活性,降低了O-·2产生速率,MDA含量及相对电导率显著下降.由此可见,外源Spd可通过提高黄瓜幼苗SOD、POD和CAT等保护酶活性来增强其对体内活性氧的有效清除能力,降低膜质过氧化伤害程度,从而缓解硝酸钙胁迫对黄瓜幼苗生长的抑制.     

外源Spd对高温胁迫下黄瓜幼苗叶片膜脂过氧化及质子泵活性的影响

以较为耐热的黄瓜品种‘津春4号’为试材,在人工气候箱中,采用石英砂培养加营养液浇灌的栽培方式,研究了叶面喷施外源亚精胺(Spd)对高温胁迫下黄瓜幼苗叶片膜脂过氧化程度、质子泵活性及其基因表达的影响.结果表明:高温胁迫下,外源Spd促进黄瓜幼苗株高、茎粗、干、鲜质量和叶面积显著增加,有效抑制叶片相对电导率、丙二醛(MDA)含量和脂氧合酶(LOX)活性的升高,有助于提高叶片细胞质膜和液泡膜H+ -ATPase活性,但在基因表达水平上无显著差异.外源Spd可显著降低黄瓜幼苗叶片膜脂过氧化程度,提高质子泵活性,从而稳定膜的结构和功能,缓解高温胁迫对黄瓜幼苗造成的伤害,提高幼苗对高温胁迫的耐性.     

外源亚精胺对盐胁迫下黄瓜幼苗体内抗氧化酶活性的影响

以不同耐盐性黄瓜品种“长春密刺”和“津春2号”为材料,采用营养液栽培,研究了外源亚精胺(Spd)对NaCl胁迫下黄瓜幼苗叶片与根系中超氧阴离子(O2-.)产生速率、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、过氧化物酶(POD)和过氧化氢酶(CAT)活性的影响。结果表明,外源Spd对未经盐胁迫处理(对照)黄瓜幼苗体内O2-.产生速率、SOD、CAT和POD活性均无显著性影响;盐胁迫处理提高了O2-.产生速率,SOD、POD和CAT活性都有不同程度的升高;外源Spd处理进一步提高了盐胁迫下SOD、POD和CAT活性,减缓了O2-.产生速率。与耐盐型“长春密刺”品种相比,盐胁迫对盐敏感型“津春2号”影响较大,外源Spd对盐敏感型黄瓜品种盐胁迫伤害的缓解作用较大。表明盐胁迫下外源Spd可缓解盐胁迫对膜的伤害,从而提高黄瓜幼苗的耐盐性。     

外源亚精胺对高温胁迫下黄瓜幼苗氮素代谢的影响

以较为耐热的黄瓜品种‘津春4号’为试材,在人工气候箱中,采用石英砂培加营养液浇灌的栽培方式,研究了外源亚精胺( Spd)对高温胁迫(42℃)下黄瓜幼苗氮素代谢的影响.结果表明:短期高温胁迫处理,尤其是4h内,植株硝态氮含量降低而铵态氮含量升高;外源Spd预处理使幼苗体内硝态氮和铵态氮含量升高且硝酸还原酶(NR)活性增强.较长期高温胁迫处理下,幼苗根系中硝态氮含量升高但向地上部运输受阻,根系NR钝化,根系和叶片中铵态氮含量均显著升高;高温胁迫下喷施Spd,除进一步促进根系吸收硝态氮且向地上部运输外,根系和叶片NR活性亦有所升高,从较长期的效果看,外源Spd还具有防止铵态氮过度积累、促进幼苗体内氮素代谢趋于正常的作用.

水杨酸对水分胁迫黄瓜幼苗叶片生理过程的影响

研究了外源水杨酸(salicylic acid,SA)对水分胁迫下黄瓜幼苗叶片主要生理过程的影响。1mmol／L的SA处理黄瓜幼苗24h后,叶片中POD活性剧增,SOD活性增加不明显,H2O2清除酶CAT和APX活性受抑制,H2O2含量上升引起膜脂过氧化产物MDA含量上升,造成轻度氧化胁迫;在随后水分胁迫过程中,经SA预处理积累的H2O2诱导APX和CAT活性上升并清除产生的H2O2;SA预处理后,叶片中Rubisco含量及其基因转录水平明显高于对照,光合作用受影响较小。这表明SA使黄瓜幼苗生理活性有较大改善,增强了植株对水分胁迫的抗性。

Entwicklungsgeschichte und Ultrastruktur von Pollenkitt und Exine bei nahe verwandten entomophilen und anemophilen Angiospermensippen derAlismataceae,Liliaceae, Juncaceae,Cyperaceae, Poaceae undAraceae

Some closely related members of the monocotyledonous familiesAlismataceae, Liliaceae, Juncaceae, Cyperaceae, Poaceae andAraceae with variable modes of pollination (insect- and wind-pollination) were studied in relation to the ultrastructure of pollenkitt and exine (amount, consistency and distribution of pollenkitt on the surface of pollen grains). The character syndromes of pollen cementing in entomophilous, anemophilous and intermediate (ambophilous or amphiphilous) monocotyledons are the same in principal as in dicotyledons. Comparing present with former results one can summarize: 1) The pollenkitt is always produced in the same manner by the anther tapetum in all angiosperm sub-classes. 2) The variable stickiness of entomophilous and anemophilous pollen always depends on the particular distribution and consistency of the pollenkitt, but not its amount on the pollen surface. 3) The mostly dry and powdery pollen of anemophilous plants always contains a variable amount of inactive pollenkitt in its exine cavities. 4) A step-by step change of the pollen cementing syndrome can be observed from entomophily towards anemophily. 5) From the omnipresence of pollenkitt in all wind-pollinated angiosperms studied one can conclude that the ancestors of anemophilous angiosperms probably have been zoophilous (i.e. entomophilous) throughout.
