缺磷强光下脐橙的过剩能量耗散机制

采用营养液培养的方法,对缺磷强光下脐橙的过剩能量耗散机制进行了研究.结果表明,在强光下,用缺磷营养液处理脐橙后,光合色素含量、净光合速率P_n、光呼吸速率P_r、最大荧光F_m、光化学效率F_v/F_m和电子传递速率ETR下降,初始荧光F_o和光呼吸/光合比P_r/P_n升高.叶绿素荧光的非光化学猝灭的快相qNf下降,中间相qNm和慢相qNs升高.用DTT处理后F_o升高,qNm和qNs下降,qNf无明显变化.缺磷强光胁迫加剧了脐橙光合作用的光抑制,进而启动了多种能量耗散机制.     

温州蜜柑叶片光合作用光抑制的保护机理

晴天条件下,使用便携式调制荧光仪和分光光度计观察了温州蜜柑叶片光合作用光抑制发生过程中几个主要荧光参数（初始荧光F0、最大荧光Fm、PSⅡ的光化学效率Fv/Fm、非光化学猝灭qN及其快相qNf和慢相qNs）、电子传递速率（ETR）和玉米黄素相对含量的日变化,结果表明,随着光强的增强,ETR、qN及其qNr与qNs以及玉米黄素相对含量升高,Fv/Fm、Fm和F0下降。用DTT处理后,qNs较对照明显下降,F0较对照明显上升,可以认为,柑橘在光合作用日变化中存在依赖于叶黄素循环和类囊体膜质子梯度两种非辐射能量耗散方式,而且它们在防御光破坏方面起着重要作用。     

温州蜜柑叶片气体交换和叶绿素荧光对低温的响应

研究了低温对温州蜜柑叶片气体交换和叶绿素荧光的影响 ,结果表明 :(1) 8℃低温处理 18h对气体交换和叶绿素荧光影响不大。 (2 ) 2℃低温处理 15h后 ,净光合速率 (Pn)、气孔导度 (Gs)、羧化效率 (CE)下降 ,胞间CO2 浓度 (Ci)升高 ,表观量子效率 (AQY)和叶绿素荧光参数F0 及Fv/Fm没有显著变化。 (3)室外自然低温处理 2和 7d ,Pn、Gs、CE、饱和CO2 光合速率、AQY及Fv/Fm显著下降 ,Ci及F0 显著升高 ;在 2 0℃室内 ,Fv/Fm、F0 和AQY比CE和Pn恢复快。 (4 )低温胁迫使Jf(依据叶绿素荧光参数计算所得的电子传递速率 )和Jc(依据CO2 同化测定所得的电子传递速率 )下降 ,Jf/Jc 值升高。 (5 )低温处理降低了Pn和光呼吸速率 (Pr) ,但Pr下降的速率小于Pn下降的速率     

蛋白核小球藻光驯化的快速光曲线变化

通过测量快速光曲线研究了强光和弱光驯化对蛋白核小球藻(Chlorella pyrenoidosa)光合作用的影响。弱光驯化后的初始斜率α高于强光驯化后,而半饱和光强I_k明显低于强光驯化后,表明弱光驯化提高了蛋白核小球藻的捕光能力。强光驯化后最大光合速率P_m高于弱光驯化后,而光抑制参数β小于弱光驯化后,表明强光驯化提高了蛋白核小球藻的光合能力和对强光的耐受性。     

不同光强下高锰对黄瓜光合作用特性的影响

采用营养液培养的方法,研究了不同光强下高锰对黄瓜植株生长、叶绿素含量、叶绿素荧光参数和光合作用的影响.结果表明,高锰处理抑制了黄瓜植株的生长,与弱光处理相比强光下抑制幅度更加显著.强光下,高锰处理显著降低叶绿素含量,但降低光强却增加其含量.强光下,高锰处理显著降低原初光能转换效率(F_v/F_m)、光合电子传递量子效率(ΦPSII)和光化学猝灭系数(qP);弱光下,高锰处理对F_v/F_m和qP无显著影响.高锰处理使净光合速率(P_n)和气孔导度(G_s)下降.尤其是在强光下下降幅度更大.高锰处理使细胞间CO₂浓度(C_i)在强光下升高,而在弱光下则下降.与C_i相反,高锰处理使气孔限制值(L_s)在强光下下降,而在弱光下上升.因此,强光下高锰胁迫使净光合速率下降可能是由非气孔限制引起的,而弱光下高锰处理使净光合速率下降可能是由气孔因子限制引起的.     

叶黄素循环和D1蛋白周转在毛竹叶片光保护中的作用

利用叶绿素荧光技术,对强光胁迫下以及叶黄素循环抑制剂-二硫苏糖醇(DTT)和D1蛋白合成抑制剂-硫酸链霉素(SM)处理后毛竹(Phyllostachys edulis (Carr.) Lehaie)的光抑制特征进行研究。结果显示:在夏季中午强光或人为强光胁迫下,毛竹叶片最大光化学效率Fv/Fm均显著降低;在下午光强减弱或黑暗、弱光条件下,Fv/Fm可有效恢复。DTT和SM均可抑制毛竹叶片非光化学淬灭(NPQ),且DTT效果明显优于SM。另外,在强光下,DTT和SM处理均能使毛竹叶片Fv/Fm、实际光化学效率Y(Ⅱ)和光化学淬灭qP等荧光参数下降幅度增大。研究结果表明毛竹叶片具有完善的光破坏防御机制,NPQ与叶黄素循环和D1蛋白周转紧密关联,在叶片光保护机制中具有重要作用。     

砂仁叶片光破坏的防御

报告了生长于热带林窗向阳处砂仁叶片叶绿素荧光参数的日变化,及阻止卷叶和用二硫苏糖醇(DTT)处理对它的影响.受强光照射,砂仁叶片迅速卷起.在雾天上午光强还相当弱(低于100μmol m-2s-1)时,砂仁叶片就发生光抑制,中午最重,下午当光强减弱时,光抑制逐渐得到缓解.其热耗散(qN、NPQ)随光强的升高而增加,且下午仍在缓慢增加.阻止卷叶使强光下砂仁叶片光抑制加剧,F0、NPQ升高.DTT处理也使光抑制加剧,F0升高,且使PSⅡ反应中心发生可逆失活.夜间2300各处理的荧光参数基本恢复.卷叶、叶黄素循环和PSⅡ可逆失活3种保护机制在同种植物中依次启动的现象尚属少见.     

高温强光对温州蜜柑叶绿素荧光、D1蛋白和Deg1蛋白酶的影响及SA效应

以3年生温州蜜柑（Citrus unishiu Marc.）植株为试材,用叶绿素荧光分析、Western-blotting蛋白质印记技术及DAB（3,3'-二氨基联苯胺）显色法,研究了高温强光（38℃和1600 μmol?m-2?s-1）对叶片叶绿素荧光参数、PS（光系统）II反应中心D1蛋白和Deg1蛋白酶的影响和SA（水杨酸）的效应。结果表明,高温强光交互作用4 h后,叶片的初始荧光Fo升高,最大光能转化效率Fv/Fm、表观光合电子传递速率ETR及PSII的量子产额ΦPSII显著降低,在D1蛋白降解的同时,Deg1蛋白酶含量也下降,并伴有H2O2的积累。在高温强光下,外源的H2O2使叶绿素荧光动力学快相参数(Fi-Fo)/(Fp-Fo)值（反映PSII中QB非还原中心的数量）升高和I-P的斜率（反映PSII 活化中心还原态QA积累的值）下降,Fv/Fm、ETR、ΦPSII及D1蛋白和Deg1蛋白酶下降幅度增大;而外源的SA使这些参数下降幅度减小。这些结果说明,高温强光诱导H2O2的积累造成Deg1蛋白酶和光系统反应中心D1蛋白的降解,Deg1蛋白酶的减少也进一步限制了D1蛋白的周转,进而使温州蜜柑PSII反应中心遭到破坏,SA对光合机构光破坏有保护作用。     

环境强光诱导玉簪叶片光抑制的机制

为进一步阐述光抑制的强光诱导和发生机制, 该文以喜阴植物玉簪(Hosta spp.)为材料研究其光抑制发生规律及其与环境光强的关系。结果表明, 全日照和遮阴条件下玉簪叶片发育分别形成适应强光和弱光的形态特征; 与遮阴处理相比, 强光下生长的玉簪光合速率和叶绿素含量较低, 但两种处理叶片最大光化学效率差异很小, 证明强光下植株可以正常生长且光合机构未发生严重的光抑制。将遮阴处生长的植株转移到全日照下, 光合速率和最大光化学效率急剧下降; 荧光诱导动力学曲线发生明显改变, 而且光系统II供体侧和受体侧荧光产量的变化幅度分别达到24.3%和34.2%, 表明玉簪由弱光转入强光后光系统II发生不可逆失活, 且受体侧受到的伤害较供体侧更严重。因此, 作者认为环境光强骤然提高并超过玉簪生长光强时很容易诱导其光合机构发生严重的光抑制。该研究对于理解植物适应光环境的策略以及喜阴植物的优质栽培有重要意义。     

铁对缺磷和铝毒耦合胁迫下杉木耐铝性的影响

为探究酸性土壤中铁与缺磷和铝毒耦合胁迫的互作关系及其对杉木耐铝性的影响,以杉木优良基因型YX11实生苗为材料,采用控制条件下沙培试验方法,设置对照(CK)、铝胁迫(Al)、缺磷和铝毒耦合胁迫(-P+Al)、缺磷和铝毒耦合胁迫下缺铁处理(-P+Al-Fe),研究缺磷和铝毒耦合胁迫下,外源供铁对杉木幼苗生长、光合生理、植株铝和铁含量、叶片抗性生理的影响。结果表明:(1)Al胁迫处理能显著抑制杉木幼苗生长,-P+Al处理进一步加剧Al诱导的生长受抑,而-P+Al-Fe处理则能显著缓解-P+Al处理引起的生长受抑程度。(2)杉木叶片光合色素含量,叶绿素荧光参数最大荧光(F_(m))、可变荧光(F_(v))、PSⅡ潜在光化学活性(F_(v)/F_(o))、PSⅡ最大光化学效率(F_(v)/F_(m))、光化学淬灭系数(qP)和实际最大量子产额(QY)以及叶片净光合速率在不同胁迫处理下均较CK出现不同程度下降,但-P+Al处理的降幅显著大于-P+Al-Fe处理。(3)杉木叶片SOD、POD、CAT和APX等抗氧化酶活性在不同胁迫处理下均比CK显著增加,但-P+Al处理各抗氧化酶活性增幅显著低于-P+Al-Fe处理,从而导致-P+Al处理叶片形成更多过氧化氢,积累大量丙二醛。(4)杉木根和叶片铝含量在不同胁迫处理下均比CK显著增加,但根和叶片中铝含量在-P+Al-Fe和-P+Al处理间无显著差异,而-P+Al处理根和叶片中铁含量显著高于-P+Al-Fe处理。研究发现,在缺磷和铝毒耦合胁迫下,与缺铁相比,正常供铁能显著促进铁在杉木植株体内的积累,抑制其抗氧化酶活性的增强,促进过氧化氢大量积累,造成光合色素降解,同时对质膜和光合反应中心造成不可逆损伤,显著降低光合效率,加剧铝毒诱导的杉木生长受抑程度。

Protein intake regulation in the weanling rat: Effects of additions of lysine,arginine and ammonia on the selection of gluten and energy

The effects of adding lysine, arginine and ammonia to gluten on the self-selection of protein and energy by the weanling rat simultaneously offered a choice of two diets differing only in gluten concentration (15 and 55%) were tested. Previous studies have shown that while lysine (6 g/100 g) additions to gluten decreased the amount of gluten selected by the rat from 40 to 20 g per 100 g of food eaten, selection was not related to the nutritional quality of the gluten. When graded levels of arginine (1.8, 3.6 or 7.2 g/100 g) were added to the gluten with or without lysine (0 or 6 g/100 g) the dietary protein selection was unaffected. The addition of ammonia (1.4 g/100 g as NH₄Cl) to gluten had initially the same effect as lysine (6 g/100 g) but with time protein intake returned to control levels. This effect of ammonia was unaltered by arginine additions. It is concluded that the mechanisms which lead to decreases in gluten selection caused by lysine or ammonia are not similar, and that the effects of lysine on gluten selection are not caused by an increased arginine requirement for urea cycle activity.

Molecular structure for microbial polysaccharides: conformation of the Klebsiella serotype K9 capsular polysaccharide

Fibre type X-ray diffraction patterns have been obtained from oriented, semicrystalline films prepared from the sodium salt form of the bacterial capsular polysaccharide of Klebsiella serotype K9. The molecule has a pentasaccharide repeating sequence, with four neutral residues in the backbone and a glucoronic acid side chain. A novel feature of the molecule is the incorporation of α-l-rhamnose residues, one 1,2 linked and two 1,3 linked in the backbone. Analysis of the X-ray diffraction results indicate an extended three-fold helical conformation with an axially projected chemical repeat of 1.377 nm. Both left and right handed helices have been examined using linked atom least squares techniques to optimize the stereochemistry while simultaneously meeting the observed helical parameters.     

The effect of intrauterine infusions of prostaglandin E2 on luteal function in nonpregnant gilts

Two trials were conducted to study the effects of intrauterine infusions of prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)) on luteal function in nonpregnant gilts. Cannulae were surgically implanted on day 9 postestrus into the lumen of each horn with a cephalic vein cannula inserted for collection of peripheral blood. Intrauterine infusions of 0, 25, 75 or 200 mug of PGE(2) were initiated at 0900 h on day 12 and administered thereafter every 12 hr until estrus or day 22 in the first trial. The second trial protocol included an increase in the dose of PGE(2) administered as well as the frequency of infusion. Infusion of 0, 200, 300 or 400 mug PGE(2) was begun at 0300 h on day 12 and continued every 6 hr until estrus or day 22. Cephalic plasma samples for progesterone analysis were collected every six hours from 0300 h on day 11 to 2100 h on day 26 in both trials. In Trial 1 mean plasma progesterone concentrations for all treatments were not different (P>0.05) from the controls on any given day of the estrous cycle. Interestrous interval was unaffected by intrauterine infusion of PGE(2). The mean plasma progesterone concentrations for all treatments were not different (P>0.05) from the controls on days 11-18 of the estrous cycle in Trial 2. However, plasma progesterone concentrations for the 200-mug and 300-mug PGE(2) groups appeared to be greater than the controls on days 14 and 15, indicating a possible delay in the decline of progesterone for these groups. The mean plasma progesterone concentrations for the treatment groups were lower (P<0.05) than the controls on days 20-26 of the cycle. treatment cycle length did not differ (P>0.05) from previous cycle length; thus treatment with PGE(2) had no effect on interestrous interval. PGE(2) may have retarded the decline of progesterone secretion by the corpus luteum in some cases, but at these dosages and frequencies of administration PGE(2) was ineffective in prolonging luteal maintenance.
