侧柏扦插不定根发生模式研究

该研究以侧柏一年生硬枝插穗为实验材料,利用连续组织切片技术观察插穗不定根发生发育过程中的组织结构变化,分析插穗外部形态变化、不定根原基起源和不定根的形成过程,探讨侧柏插穗不定根发生模式和不定根的组织学起源。结果显示:侧柏扦插后可由愈伤组织、皮部诱导产生不定根,出现皮部生根、愈伤组织生根、愈伤组织兼具皮部生根3种类型;侧柏插穗中存在少量潜伏根原基,但插穗生根类型以诱导生根为主;不定根原基诱导产生于愈伤组织、木质部、形成层及次生韧皮部等部位。研究认为侧柏扦插生根属于多位点发生模式,不定根原基的组织学起源是愈伤组织、髓射线、射线原始细胞、尚未分化成熟的木质部细胞,通过人工诱导同时激活这些不定根起源位点能够显著提高生根率和生根质量。

Contribution of adventitious vs initial roots to growth and physiology of black spruce seedlings

Black spruce (Picea mariana [Mill.] BSP) is a boreal tree species characterized by the formation of an adventitious root system. Unlike initial roots from seed germination, adventitious roots gradually appear above the root collar, until they constitute most of mature black spruce root system. Little is known about the physiological role they play and their influence on tree growth relative to initial roots. We hypothesized that adventitious roots present an advantage over initial roots in acquiring water and nutrients. To test this hypothesis, the absorptive capacities of the two root systems were explored in a controlled environment during one growing season. Black spruce seedlings were placed in a double‐pot system allowing irrigation (25 and 100% water container capacity) and fertilization (with or without fertilizer) inputs independent to initial and adventitious roots. After 14 weeks, growth parameters (height, diameter, biomass), physiology (net photosynthetic rate, stomatal conductance, shoot water potential) and nutrient content (N, P, K, Ca and Mg foliar content) were compared. Most measured parameters showed no difference for the same treatment on adventitious or initial roots, except for root biomass. Indeed, fertilized black spruce seedlings invested heavily in adventitious root production, twice as much as initial roots. This was also the case when adventitious roots alone were irrigated, while seedlings with adventitious roots subjected to low irrigation produced initial root biomass equivalent to that of adventitious roots. We conclude that black spruce seedlings perform equally well through adventitious and initial roots, but if resources are abundant, they strongly promote development of adventitious roots.     

Architectural Tradeoffs between Adventitious and Basal Roots for Phosphorus Acquisition

Adventitious rooting contributes to efficient phosphorus acquisition by enhancing topsoil foraging. However, metabolic investment in adventitious roots may retard the development of other root classes such as basal roots, which are also important for phosphorus acquisition. In this study we quantitatively assessed the potential effects of adventitious rooting on basal root growth and whole plant phosphorus acquisition in young bean plants. The geometric simulation model SimRoot was used to dynamically model root systems with varying architecture and C availability growing for 21 days at 3 planting depths in 3 soil types with contrasting nutrient mobility. Simulated root architectures, tradeoffs between adventitious and basal root growth, and phosphorus acquisition were validated with empirical measurements. Phosphorus acquisition and phosphorus acquisition efficiency (defined as mol phosphorus acquired per mol C allocated to roots) were estimated for plants growing in soil in which phosphorus availability was uniform with depth or was greatest in the topsoil, as occurs in most natural soils. Phosphorus acquisition and acquisition efficiency increased with increasing allocation to adventitious roots in stratified soil, due to increased phosphorus depletion of surface soil. In uniform soil, increased adventitious rooting decreased phosphorus acquisition by reducing the growth of lateral roots arising from the tap root and basal roots. The benefit of adventitious roots for phosphorus acquisition was dependent on the specific respiration rate of adventitious roots as well as on whether overall C allocation to root growth was increased, as occurs in plants under phosphorus stress, or was lower, as observed in unstressed plants. In stratified soil, adventitious rooting reduced the growth of tap and basal lateral roots, yet phosphorus acquisition increased by up to 10% when total C allocation to roots was high and adventitious root respiration was similar to that in basal roots. With C allocation to roots decreased by 38%, adventitious roots still increased phosphorus acquisition by 5%. Allocation to adventitious roots enhanced phosphorus acquisition and efficiency as long as the specific respiration of adventitious roots was similar to that of basal roots and less than twice that of tap roots. When adventitious roots were assigned greater specific respiration rates, increased adventitious rooting reduced phosphorus acquisition and efficiency by diverting carbohydrate from other root types. Varying the phosphorus diffusion coefficient to reflect varying mobilities in different soil types had little effect on the value of adventitious rooting for phosphorus acquisition. Adventitious roots benefited plants regardless of basal root growth angle. Seed planting depth only affected phosphorus uptake and efficiency when seed was planted below the high phosphorus surface stratum. Our results confirm the importance of root respiration in nutrient foraging strategies, and demonstrate functional tradeoffs among distinct components of the root system. These results will be useful in developing ideotypes for more nutrient efficient crops.     

Molecular mechanism of adventitious root formation in rice

Adventitious roots account for the majority of the rice root system and play an irreplaceable role in rice growth and development. Rice adventitious roots are formed by division of the innermost ground meristem cells in the central cylinder, and some lateral roots are observable in the adventitious root system. Multiple hormones have been implicated in the regulation of root development. Auxin is involved in the initiation of adventitious roots, whereas cytokinin inhibits adventitious root initiation, but promotes adventitious root elongation. Other phytohormones such as nitric oxide, ethylene, brassinosteroid, jasmonic acid and gibberellin may be also involved in regulating adventitious root initiation and development. Additionally, more than 600 root development related quantitative trait loci (QTLs) have been located by QTL analysis of root traits.

红皮云杉茎的解剖结构与插条不定根形成的研究

１９９２年７－８月定时固定红皮云杉插条基部材料于ＦＡＡ液中,石蜡制片法室内解剖研究不定根的发生。结果表明：红皮云杉插条诱发根原基的来源有两种途径。一种是愈伤组织生根型,在愈伤组织的再生形成层处,或茎的维管形成层诱发根原基;另一种是非愈伤组织生根型,在插条切口处的维管形成层、皮层或初生木质部与次生木质部间的薄壁组织较深的部位,直接产生纵向不定根原始体,有的在距离切口０．１－０．５ｃｍ以上茎的维管形成层,维管形成层与木射线的交界处及叶隙等薄壁组织产生径向不定根。不同个体间产生的不定根数量及发育的早晚差异较大。     

淹水对玉米不定根形态结构和ATP酶活性的影响

淹水２天后,玉米苗基节内即有不定根原基一进于正常植株。淹水１６天后,从基节部长出的不定根数多于正常植株,但淹水导致根系生长和干物质积累大幅度下降。淹水幼苗不定根伸长区内有发达的通气组织形成,使根内部组织孔隙度大幅提高。电镜细胞化学研究表明,经１５天淹一,不定根根尖细胞内ＡＴＰ酶的分布与正常功苗基本相同,酶活性尽管有一定的下降,但仍保持较高水平。根据实验结果,本文重点讨论了不定根的发生及其内部通气组     

Posidonia oceanica seedling root structure and development

The seedling root system of the seagrass Posidonia oceanica consists of a primary root and up to four adventitious roots. Under culture, germination and early growth began with the emergence of the primary root in the first week. Then the two adventitious root primordia originally present in the seed emerged at 3 and 5 weeks respectively, followed successively by further adventitious roots. Primary roots reached 17 mm at 4 weeks, but then their growth decreased markedly. In contrast the adventitious roots showed a pattern of continued elongation. Anatomical observations of both primary and adventitious roots revealed a multilayered hypodermis of thick-walled cells enclosing a wide cortex (99% of the root transverse area) and narrow stele. A well-distinguished endodermis was only observed in the primary roots, while differentiated xylem elements were found solely in the adventitious roots, but it is unclear to what degree differences between the two root types are due to different root maturity or to their role in water and nutrient uptake. Overall, the P. oceanica seedling root system is composed of multiple, rapidly formed roots which are strong yet flexible due to a large proportion of cortical tissue and further strengthened by a multilayered hypodermis, characteristics which could potentially facilitate initial anchorage and establishment.     

Effects of explant types and media salt strength on growth and secondary metabolite accumulation in adventitious roots of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Periploca sepium</Emphasis> Bunge

In order to study the capabilities of Periploca sepium adventitious root induction in different types of explants, we selected leaves, roots and stems with or without buds. The growth of adventitious roots and periplocin content in these roots were determined. In order to investigate the suitable media salt strength, we cultured the adventitious roots in different salt strength (0.25, 0.50, 1.0, 1.5, 2.0) of Murashige and Skoog (MS) media supplemented with 1 mg/l indole butyric acid (IBA) and 30 g/l sucrose. The results showed that both leaf and root explants were proven suitable for the adventitious root induction; however, the stems could hardly induce adventitious roots no matter whether the stems had buds or not. Further studies reported that adventitious root proliferation and periplocin production derived from root explants were higher than those derived from leaf explants. So the root explants were the optimum explants for adventitious root induction, growth and periplocin production. The salt strength experiment showed that with the increasing salt strength (1.0–2.0 MS), adventitious root growth decreased significantly, as well as periplocin content in comparison with lower (0.25–0.5 MS) salt strength media.     

濒危药用植物桃儿七根的显微结构及其菌根真菌分布研究

本文研究了桃儿七Sinopodophyllum hexandrum根的显微结构及其真菌分布。结果表明,桃儿七的根为根状茎,节状,不定根形成的须根系发达。根的结构主要由表皮、皮层、维管柱三部分构成,其中,皮层所占比例最大,超过80%。根的木质部有四原型和五原型两种类型,五原型较为常见;四原型的根和五原型的根在皮层细胞形态上存在一定差异。在桃儿七的不定根和其上的侧根观察到真菌菌丝分布,其数量和种类与根的直径有关,在不定根较细(先端)的部位真菌以暗色有隔内生真菌(DSE真菌)为主,侵染率为77.9%;而较粗根中真菌菌丝为无隔菌丝为主,分布很少且仅存在于皮层细胞的一至二层,不侵染皮层深部和维管柱。不定根侧根中真菌以丛枝菌根真菌为主,丛枝菌根常常占据大部分的皮层细胞,侵染率高达90%以上。桃儿七根中没有发现根毛存在,因此,侧根中共生的丛枝菌根真菌可能是桃儿七养分和水分吸收的主要途径。     

Root Formation in Ethylene-Insensitive Plants

Experiments with ethylene-insensitive tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum) and petunia (Petunia x hybrida) plants were conducted to determine if normal or adventitious root formation is affected by ethylene insensitivity. Ethylene-insensitive Never ripe (NR) tomato plants produced more below-ground root mass but fewer above-ground adventitious roots than wild-type Pearson plants. Applied auxin (indole-3-butyric acid) increased adventitious root formation on vegetative stem cuttings of wild-type plants but had little or no effect on rooting of NR plants. Reduced adventitious root formation was also observed in ethylene-insensitive transgenic petunia plants. Applied 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid increased adventitious root formation on vegetative stem cuttings from NR and wild-type plants, but NR cuttings produced fewer adventitious roots than wild-type cuttings. These data suggest that the promotive effect of auxin on adventitious rooting is influenced by ethylene responsiveness. Seedling root growth of tomato in response to mechanical impedance was also influenced by ethylene sensitivity. Ninety-six percent of wild-type seedlings germinated and grown on sand for 7 d grew normal roots into the medium, whereas 47% of NR seedlings displayed elongated tap-roots, shortened hypocotyls, and did not penetrate the medium. These data indicate that ethylene has a critical role in various responses of roots to environmental stimuli.     

冰凉花根系发育形态学的初步研究

Influence of galactoglucomannan oligosaccharides on root culture of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Karwinskia humboldtiana</Emphasis>

Galactoglucomannan oligosaccharides (GGMOs) activity in K. humboldtiana root culture has been determined. GGMOs inhibited adventitious root growth and lateral root induction in contrast to IAA, IBA, and NAA stimulating effect in these processes. Similarly, the combination of GGMOs with natural auxins (IAA, IBA) evoked an inhibition of adventitious root growth and lateral root induction that depended on the oligosaccharides concentration and the type of auxin. The growth stimulating effect of the synthetic auxin, NAA, in adventitious roots was negatively affected by GGMOs, but they were without influence on lateral root induction. The presence of oligosaccharides triggered lateral root position on adventitious roots and the anatomy of adventitious roots (diameter, proportion of primary cortex to the central cylinder, number and size of primary cortical cells, intercellular spaces, and the number of starch grains in cells of primary cortex) in dependence on their coactions with auxin.     

桤木插穗不定根发生与发育的解剖学观察

Podophyllotoxin production via cell and adventitious root cultures of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Podophyllum peltatum</Emphasis>

Podophyllum peltatum is an important medicinal plant that produces podophyllotoxin (PTOX) with anti-cancer properties. We established the embryogenic cell and adventitious root culture systems in P. peltatum and analyzed PTOX production. For the growth of embryogenic cell clumps in shake flask culture, the most efficient concentration of 2,4-dichloroacetic acid (2,4-D) was 6.78 μM, and the growth of embryogenic cell clumps was 15.9-fold increased in Murashige and Skoog MS liquid medium with 6.78 μM 2,4-D after 3 wk of culture. To induce adventitious roots, half-strength MS medium showed the best results for adventitious root induction compared to full strength MS medium and MS medium lacking NH₄NO₃. Optimal indole-3-butyric acid concentration for adventitious root formation was 14.78 μM. In liquid medium, the frequency of adventitious root formation from root segments was 87.7% and the number of laterally formed adventitious roots was 22.3 per segment. PTOX production in embryogenic cells and adventitious roots was confirmed by liquid chromatography and electrospray ionization–tandem mass spectrometry analysis. High-performance liquid chromatography analysis revealed that adventitious roots contained higher PTOX than embryogenic cell clumps. Elicitor treatment (20 μM methyl jasmonate) strongly enhanced the production of PTOX in both embryogenic cell clumps and adventitious roots. This observation suggests that both embryogenic cell and adventitious root culture can be adopted to produce PTOX.

A trans-zeatin riboside in root xylem sap negatively regulates adventitious root formation on cucumber hypocotyls

Shoot cultures of cucumber were used to analyse the roles of root-derived substances in adventitious root formation on hypocotyl tissues. Xylem sap collected from the roots of squash had a strong inhibitory effect on the formation of hypocotyl adventitious roots. Double-solvent extraction followed by fractionation with both normal and reverse phase column chromatographies and analysis by liquid chromatography/tandem mass spectrometry identified trans-zeatin riboside (ZR) as the primary suppressor of adventitious root formation. ZR was the predominant cytokinin present in the xylem sap, occurring at a concentration of 2x10(-8 )M. Application of ZR at concentrations from 3.16x10(-9) M effected inhibition of adventitious root formation. These results suggest that ZR transported from roots via xylem sap may act as an endogenous suppressor of hypocotyl adventitious root formation in planta.
