CO2浓度倍增对谷子和紫花苜蓿叶绿体超微结构的效应

电镜观察结果表明,不同种类植物生长在相同倍增的高ＣＯ２ 浓度条件下,其叶绿体超微结构彼此呈现出明显的差异． 最醒目的特征是淀粉粒的积累比对照的增加很多;类囊体膜系发生异变． 总体上,（１）淀粉粒,Ｃ４ 植物谷子（Ｓｅｔａｒｉａ ｉｔａｌｉｃａ）叶绿体比Ｃ３ 植物紫花苜蓿（Ｍｅｄｉｃａｇｏ ｓａｔｉｖａ）积累的更多． （２）淀粉粒较小且较少时,紫花苜蓿叶绿体基粒类囊体膜增多,与基质类囊体膜相间排列有序;谷子叶绿体的基粒垛及基粒类囊体膜数均增多,但基粒变小,基质类囊体膜变长,且有些膜出现膨胀甚至破损． （３）淀粉粒较大且积累过多时,紫花苜蓿叶绿体中尚可隐约见到由４～８ 个类囊体膜组成的短小基粒零星分布于淀粉粒间;谷子叶绿体中几乎找不到可辨认的基粒和基质类囊体膜     

小麦黄化突变体叶绿体超微结构研究

利用透射电镜对小麦自然黄化突变体及其突变亲本(西农1718)叶片细胞叶绿体的数目、形态及超微结构进行比较分析。结果发现:(1)3种不同黄化程度突变体的叶绿体分布、数目、形状及大小与突变亲本无明显差异;(2)突变体叶绿素含量为野生型58%的黄绿植株与其突变亲本叶绿体超微结构无明显差异,基质类囊体与基粒类囊体高度分化,基粒数目以及基粒片层数目较多;(3)突变体金黄和绿黄植株的叶绿素含量分别为野生型的17%、24%,其叶绿体超微结构与突变亲本明显不同,突变体的叶绿体发育存在明显缺陷,其中突变体金黄植株的叶绿体内无基粒、基质片层清晰可见,有淀粉粒,嗜锇颗粒较多,而突变体绿黄植株的叶绿体内有基粒,但明显少于突变亲本,且基粒片层较少,基质类囊体较发达。结果表明该黄化突变体叶绿体超微结构的改变,是由于叶绿素含量降低造成,推测,该黄化突变是由于叶绿素合成受阻导致的。     

油菜细胞质雄性不育系及其保持系叶绿体超微结构的研究

本工作以油菜细胞质雄性不育系及其保持系为材料,比较观察了叶肉细胞叶绿体超徽结构之间的差异,发现保持系的叶绿体片层系统由基粒及基质两部分组成,片层的排列比较整齐;但是,不育系叶绿体类囊体片层中大多数基粒的垛叠层数明显减少,同时连接基粒与基粒之间的基质片层变细,以致断裂,从而造成片层系统排列上一定程度的紊乱。这一现象同育性改变有关,值得重视。     

不同海拔火绒草叶绿体超微结构的比较

利用透射电镜对生长于青藏高原东北部3个不同海拔地区(2300m、2700m和3800m)的火绒草叶绿体超微结构进行了比较观察。结果发现,随着海拔的升高,叶绿体结构差异明显。海拔2300m处,叶绿体呈扁船形,沿细胞壁分布,基粒片层排列整齐,片层可达32层;海拔2700m处,叶绿体呈扁船形,沿细胞壁分布,基粒片层排列不规则,片层下降到十几层,类囊体出现轻微膨大;海拔3800m处,叶绿体呈圆形,位于细胞中央,基粒片层则严重扭曲,片层只有几层,类囊体膨大严重,出现脂质小球。研究表明,火绒草叶绿体结构的变化是对逆境的一种适应,是青藏高原特殊生态条件长期胁迫的结果。     

干旱胁迫对不同耐旱性大麦品种叶片超微结构的影响

选用耐旱性不同的3个大麦（Hordeum sativum）品种作为研究对象,分析干旱胁迫对其叶肉细胞叶绿体、线粒体和细胞核超微结构的影响。结果表明,3个大麦品种在非胁迫条件下其超微结构无明显差异。遭受干旱胁迫后,不耐旱大麦品种Moroc9-75叶片细胞核中染色质的凝聚程度高,叶绿体变形,外被膜出现较大程度的波浪状和膨胀,同时基粒出现弯曲、膨胀、排列混乱的现象;线粒体外形及膜受到破坏、内部嵴部分消失等。耐旱大麦品种HS41-1叶片细胞中染色质虽出现凝聚,但凝聚程度低;其叶绿体及线粒体与非胁迫条件下基本相似,多数未见明显损伤。耐旱中等的大麦品种Martin叶片超微结构的变化则介于二者之间。因此,干旱胁迫下叶绿体外形、基粒和基质类囊体膜结构的完整性与基粒的排列次序、染色质的凝聚度和线粒体膜及嵴的完整性与大麦的耐旱性相关,这些特性可作为评价大麦耐旱性强弱的形态结构指标。

达坂山蚤缀和裸茎金腰叶绿体超微结构的研究

对高山植物达坂山蚤缀和裸茎金腰叶绿体超微结构的研究表明,叶绿体和线粒体镶嵌很紧密;基粒和基质类囊体膨大,膨大的类囊体呈梭形或圆形,没有发现脂质小球的存在;基粒叠垛程度很低,平均每个基粒类囊体的片层数为5．4。这2种高山植物叶绿体超微结构上的特征是青藏高原特殊的生态条件,包括低温、低气压、强辐射影响的结果。     

定位于类囊体膜的PPF1在转基因拟南芥中的表达影响叶绿体的发育

PPF1是一个与植物营养生长相关的基因。它编码的产物可能是一个膜蛋白并与拟南芥叶绿体中的类囊体蛋白ALB3有很高的同源性。免疫电镜分析表明PPF1蛋白同样主要定位于类囊体膜 ,而且在短日照G2豌豆开花两周后仍发育良好的叶绿体中有很高的表达 ,在长日照豌豆同时期非正常叶绿体中丰度非常低。对转基因拟南芥和野生型植株的叶片衰老进程比较发现 ,PPF1在拟南芥中的过量表达可以延缓叶片的衰老 ,而用PPF1反义mRNA抑制拟南芥中的同源基因ALB3则明显加快叶片衰老速度。对转基因拟南芥的超微结构分析显示 ,PPF1在拟南芥中过量表达时 ,转基因植株的叶绿体比野生型植株的叶绿体大并含有更多的基粒和基质类囊体膜 ;相反 ,反义PPF1表达抑制其在拟南芥中的同源物时 ,转基因植株的叶绿体比野生型植株的叶绿体小并含有较少的基粒和发育较差的类囊体膜系统。这些数据表明叶绿体的发育状况与PPF1或拟南芥同源物ALB3的表达水平呈正相关。我们的结果提示PPF1基因可能通过控制叶绿体的发育状况来调节植物的发育。

墨兰幼叶和成熟叶不同部位叶绿体超微结构和光合作用

墨兰试管苗植株成熟叶片叶绿体基粒较发达,类囊本膜垛叠较紧密。幼叶叶绿体中少有亲锇颗粒,成熟叶的叶绿体中往往既有亲锇颗粒又有淀粉粒。幼叶中基粒数目比成熟叶的少,叶绿体也比成熟叶的小。幼叶的光合放氧速率比成熟叶的低。幼叶中叶尖部叶绿体最大而叶基部最小,但叶尖部的光合放氧速率比叶基部小。成熟叶中叶绿体大小及光合放氧速率区别不明显。通过对各部位叶绿素含量的测定发现,叶绿素含量与光合放氧速率之间没有正相关性     

花粒期光照对夏玉米光合特性和叶绿体超微结构的影响

在大田条件下,以夏玉米品种‘登海605’为试验材料,研究花粒期不同光照强度(正常光照、开花至收获期遮阴和开花至收获期增光)对夏玉米叶片光合、荧光性能和叶绿体超微结构的影响.结果表明:与对照相比,花粒期遮阴影响叶绿体排布及内部结构发育,基粒个数和基粒片层数均有不同程度减少,叶片的净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度、叶绿素含量下降,PSⅡ反应中心的实际光化学效率和最大光化学效率降低,非光化学淬灭系数数值增加,导致产量降低;增光后叶绿体结构良好,基粒片层排列紧致、清晰且数量增加,PSⅡ反应中心的实际光化学效率增加,净光合速率、蒸腾速率、气孔导度、叶绿素含量上升,叶片光合性能增强,产量增加.即花粒期遮阴破坏了夏玉米叶片叶绿体超微结构,降低了叶片光合能力,产量下降;花粒期增光增加了叶肉细胞中叶绿体的基粒和基粒片层,导致基粒片层排列紧密有序,有利于增加作物产量潜力.     

Photosynthesis in relation to leaf characteristics of cotton from controlled and field environments

In situ and light-saturated net photosynthetic rates per unit leaf area were greater in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) plants grown in pots in the field than in similar plants from a phytotron growth chamber. Light-saturated stomatal resistances did not differ in leaves of similar age and exposure on field and chamber plants; lower photosynthetic rates in chamber leaves were associated with greater mesophyll resistance. Differences in net photosynthetic rates were related to differences in leaf thickness. When the photosynthetic rates were expressed per unit of mesophyll volume or per unit chlorophyll differences between field and chamber plants were much less than when rates were expressed per unit leaf area. Characterization of the chloroplast lamellar proteins showed that the field leaves had smaller photosynthetic units than the chamber leaves. Since the field leaves also contained more chlorophyll per unit area, this resulted in a much larger number of photosynthetic units per unit area in the field leaves.     

Modification of leaf cytology and anatomy in Brassica napus grown under above ambient levels of supplemental UV-B radiation.

Plants exposed to natural solar radiation usually show acclimation responses on a daily and seasonal basis. Many of these responses are complex and modified by interactions with acclimation responses to other climatic factors. While changes in photosynthetically active radiation (PAR, 400-700 nm) are the driving force for many acclimation responses in plants, radiation outside the PAR range is also important. Recently, interest has increased in the potential role of UV-A (320-400 nm) and UV-B (280-320 nm) components of sunlight in plant developmental, physiological and daily acclimation processes. In order to explore the role of UV-B further, Brassica napus L. cv Paroll plants were grown to maturity under 13 kJ d(-1) of biologically effective ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B(BE), 280-320 nm) plus 800 micromol photons m(-2) s(-1) photosynthetically active radiation (PAR, 400-700 nm) or PAR alone. Leaf anatomy and palisade cell structure were quantified using stereological techniques. The leaves of plants grown under UV-B radiation exhibited an increase in overall leaf width, although no change in leaf anatomy was discerned. Palisade cells in UV-B exposed leaves showed a significant decrease in chloroplast, mitochondrial, starch, and microbody volume density (Vv), while the vacuolar Vv increased compared to cells exposed to PAR only. In UV-B exposed leaves, there was an increase in the appressed and non-appressed thylakoid surface area density (Sv) within the chloroplasts. Since the relative proportion of appressed to non-appressed thylakoid surface area did not change, both thylakoid systems changed in concert with each other. Thylakoid stacks were broader and shorter in leaves subjected to UV-B. In general these responses were similar to those which occurred in plants moved from a high to low PAR environment and similar to mature plants exposed to 13 kJ d(-1) UV-B(BE) for only a short period of time. Although UV absorbing pigments increased by 21% in UV-B exposed leaves, there was no significant difference in chlorophyll a,b or carotenoid content compared to plants exposed to only PAR.     

Decline in photosynthesis as related to alterations in chloroplast ultrastructure of a cotton leaf during ontogeny

Field studies were conducted to investigate ontogenic changes in leaf photosynthesis and chloroplast ultrastructure of a single cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) leaf subtending the fruit. A 20-d old leaf was the most physiologically active with net photosynthetic rate (PN) of 16.5 mol m-2 s-1 and nitrogen (N) concentration of 168 mmol m-2. These values declined with leaf age and a close relationship existed between them. Concurrent with declines in PN, ultrastructural alterations occurred in the chloroplast: the 20-d old leaf had increased grana number and thylakoids per granum and a few plastoglobuli. Afterwards, the grana number and thylakoids per granum declined with leaf age indicating disintegrated grana and stroma lamellae. Concomitant with disintegrated membrane system was the presence of numerous large plastoglobuli. The PN was closely related to grana number and thylakoids per granum suggesting that the decline in PN with leaf age was associated with ultrastructural changes in the chloroplast.     

Ultrastructural Observation on Chloroplast of the Thermo sensitive Green yellow Banded Leaf Mutant in Rice (Oryza sativa ssp.indica)

The green-yellow bands interrupted discolorated transverse bands on the leaves of the thermo-sensitive rice line l103s (Oryza sativa ssp. indica ) was induced by cold shock and the change of leaf color coincided with the change of chlorophyll contents. Uhrastmctural observation revealed that the chloroplast slructure in the yellow part degenerated, i.e., the number of stocks in granum abnormally decreased, thylakoid system was disintegrated and replaced by few single thylakoid, and then the whole structure of some chloroplast became vesicle-hke structure with high electronic density. Nonetheless, in the green zone of the green-yellow banded leaf, there were slight decrease in the number granum thylakoids, disordered grana arrangement in the chloroplast, and aggregation of osmiophile globule. However, it was found that these structural alternations were reversable in the process of recovery of the yellow part of the leaves into green, and the chloroplast structure renewed normally. It might be concluded that the character of green-yellow bands induced by cold shock was consequent upon a reverse process of degeneration and regeneration.     

金叶连翘叶片色素含量和解剖结构研究

金叶连翘不同冠层的成熟叶片呈现为不同颜色。以朝鲜连翘深绿色叶为对照,观察金叶连翘冠层上、中、下位叶色,测定其叶片大小和叶绿素a、叶绿素b、总叶绿素及类胡萝卜素含量,同时观察分析叶片横切面解剖结构,旨在阐明叶片色素含量和解剖结构对叶色的影响。研究表明:上层黄色、中层黄绿色、下层浅绿色,黄、黄绿、浅绿色叶总叶绿素含量分别是对照组的0.51%、4.44%和66.47%,均极显著低于对照(P <0.01),但黄绿叶的叶绿素a/b比值显著升高(P <0.05),黄、黄绿叶的总叶绿素/类胡萝卜素比值极显著降低(P <0.01)。黄、黄绿叶的叶绿体发育停滞于单片层时期,类囊体分化程度低,浅绿叶类囊基粒片层肿胀;黄叶细胞器降解,栅栏组织细胞形状难以辨别,黄绿叶上表皮细胞凸起。金叶连翘属于总叶绿素及叶绿素b合成减少型突变体,表现为叶绿素严重缺失,类胡萝卜素相对含量升高;其叶绿体发育停滞,类囊体结构异常,是金叶连翘叶片呈现不同颜色的主要因素,与其叶片解剖显微结构无关。     

THE EFFECT OF LIGHT INTENSITY AND TEMPERATURE ON PLANT GROWTH AND CHLOROPLAST ULTRASTRUCTURE IN SOYBEAN

Soybean plants grown in controlled environment cabinets under light intensities of 220 w/m² or 90 w/m² (400–700 nm) and day to night temperatures of 27.5–22.5 C or 20.0–12.5 C in all combinations, exhibited differences in growth rate, leaf anatomy, chloroplast ultrastructure, and leaf starch, chlorophyll, and chloroplast lipid contents. Leaves grown under the lower light intensity at both temperatures had palisade mesophyll chloroplasts containing well-formed grana. The corresponding leaves developed under the higher light intensity had very rudimentary grana. Chloroplasts from high temperature and high light had grana consisting of two or three appressed thylakoids, while grana from the low temperature were confined to occasional thylakoid overlap. Spongy mesophyll chloroplasts were less sensitive to growth conditions. Transfer experiments showed that the ultrastructure of chloroplasts from mature leaves could be modified by changing the conditions, though the effect was less marked than when the leaf was growing.     

水稻叶色突变体叶绿体发育规律研究

从温敏核不育系水稻'810S'中筛选出一个生长发育正常的淡黄绿叶色自然突变株'标810S',其叶绿素含量约为'810S'的50%,光合速率比野生型高.以'810S'为对照,对'标810S'进行叶片形态、叶肉细胞和叶绿体超微结构以及叶绿体蛋白研究.结果显示,'标810S'的叶长、宽和面积与'810S'相似;叶肉细胞和叶绿体发育稍迟缓,片层结构减少;叶绿体蛋白约为对照的55%,并初步鉴定出与光合作用相关的差异蛋白点13个,其中4个缺失蛋白,包括1个RuBP大亚基缺失.推测该水稻突变体叶色变浅与叶绿体基粒片层减少有关.     

水稻温敏型突变体叶片间断失绿的超微结构

在短时降温诱导下,水稻温敏型突变体１１０３ｓ（Ｏｒｙｚａ　ｓａｔｉｖａ　ｓｓｐ．ｉｎｄｉｃａ）植株间断失绿性状表达（临界温度２３．１℃）过程中,叶绿体含量的增减与叶色变化相符。电镜观察发现,性状表达时叶片间断失绿区叶绿体内部结构发生退化,呈现基粒垛叠片层数的异常减少,或基粒消失仅剩基粒残迹,有的甚至整个叶绿体为高电子密度的囊泡状结构。但在同一叶片的绿区,叶绿体仅表现基粒片层数减少、排列不规则,嗜锇小球聚集。在叶片失绿区的复绿过程中,叶绿体的这些变化又可逆转,内部结构重建,最后整个叶绿体结构基本恢复正常。水稻温敏突变体１１０３ｓ叶片间断失绿性状表达过程,实质上是一个由温度调控的叶绿体结构退化与修复的可逆过程。
