The aims of the present study are to find out whether the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) symbiosis on plant resistance
to water deficit are mediated by the endogenous abscisic acid (ABA) content of the host plant and whether the exogenous ABA
application modifies such effects. The ABA-deficient tomato mutant sitiens and its near-isogenic wild-type parental line were used. Plant development, physiology, and expression of plant genes expected
to be modulated by AM symbiosis, drought, and ABA were studied. Results showed that only wild-type tomato plants responded
positively to mycorrhizal inoculation, while AM symbiosis was not observed to have any effect on plant development in sitiens plants grown under well-watered conditions. The application of ABA to sitiens plants enhanced plant growth both under well-watered and drought stress conditions. In respect to sitiens plants subjected to drought stress, the addition of ABA had a cumulative effect in relation to that of inoculation with G. intraradices. Most of the genes analyzed in this study showed different regulation patterns in wild-type and sitiens plants, suggesting that their gene expression is modulated by the plant ABA phenotype. In the same way, the colonization
of roots with the AM fungus G. intraradices differently regulated the expression of these genes in wild-type and in sitiens plants, which could explain the distinctive effect of the symbiosis on each plant ABA phenotype. This also suggests that
the effects of the AM symbiosis on plant responses and resistance to water deficit are mediated by the plant ABA phenotype. 相似文献

Extracts prepared from the turgid and water-stressed leaves of wild-type tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill cv Ailsa Craig) and the wilty mutants sitiens, notabilis, and flacca were tested for their ability to metabolize xanthoxin to ABA. Extracts from wild type and notabilis converted xanthoxin at similar rates, while extracts from sitiens and flacca showed little or no activity. We also observed no activity when extracts of sitiens and flacca were mixed. Similar results were obtained when ABA aldehyde was used as a substrate, in that extracts from wild type and notabilis were equally active, but extracts from flacca and sitiens showed little activity. None of the tomato extracts showed significant activity with xanthoxin acid, xanthoxin alcohol, or ABA-1′,4-′Trans-diol as substrates. Extracts from bean leaves (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv Blue Lake) were similar to the wild-type tomato extracts in their ability to convert the various substrates to ABA, although excised bean leaves did convert ABA-1′,4′-trans-diol and xanthoxin alcohol to ABA when these substances were taken up through the petiole. These results are consistent with a role for xanthoxin as a normal intermediate on the ABA biosynthetic pathway, and they suggest that ABA aldehyde is the final ABA precursor. 相似文献

The role of systemin inPin2 gene expression was analyzed in wild-type plants of potato (Solanum tuberosum L.) and tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.), as well as in abscisic acid (ABA)-deficient tomato (sitiens) and potato (droopy) plants. The results showed that systemin initiates Pin2 mRNA accumulation only in wildtype tomato and potato plants. As in the situation after mechanical wounding,Pin2 gene expression in ABA-deficient plants was not activated by systemin. Increased endogenous levels of jasmonic acid (JA) and accumulation of Pin2 mRNA were observed following treatment with α-linolenic acid, the precursor of JA biosynthesis, suggesting that these ABA mutants still have the capability to synthesize de novo JA. Measurement of endogenous levels of ABA and JA showed that systemin leads to an increase of both phytohormones (ABA and JA) only in wild-type but not in ABA-deficient plants. 相似文献

Abscisic Acid and C10 Dicarboxylic Acids in Wilty Tomato Mutants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Linforth, R. S. T., Taylor, I. B. and Hedden, P. 1987. Abscisicacid and C10 dicarboxylic acids in wilty tomato mutants.J.exp. Bot. 38: 17341740. The concentration of C10 dicarboxylic acids in wilty tomatomutants was investigated. Three of the genotypes studied (flacca,sitiens and the double mutant homozygote flacca/sitiens) werefound to have higher concentrations of 2,7-dimethyl-2,4-octadienedioicacid (ODA) than the isogenic normal form. In contrast, the othergenotypes (notabilisand the double mutant homozygotes notabilis/flaccaand notabilis/sitiens) were found to have lower concentrationsof ODA than the isogenic normal form. The concentration of ODAin flacca plants was increased by water stress and reduced byexogenously applied abscisic acid (ABA). A second structurallyrelated compound, 2,7-dimethyl-4-octenedioic acid (OEA) wasalso quantified, but it showed no clear genotype-related pattern. The concentration of ABA in the wilty tomato mutants was alsoinvestigated. As expected in the light of previously publishedresults, it was reduced in the single mutants relative to theisogenic control plants. In the double mutant flacca/sitiensABA levels were similar to those of the single mutant sitiens.However, in the two double mutants notabilis/flacca and notabilis/sitiensABA was substantially lower than those in any other genotypeinvestigated. Key words: Abscisic acid, 2,7-dimethyl-2,4-octadienedioic acid, 2,7-dimethyl-4-octenedioc acid, tomato, wilty mutants 相似文献

Experiments were performed on three
abscisic acid (ABA)-deficient tomato (Lycopersicon
esculentum Mill.) mutants, notabilis,
flacca, and sitiens, to investigate the
role of ABA and jasmonic acid (JA) in the generation of electrical
signals and Pin2 (proteinase
inhibitor II) gene expression. We selected
these mutants because they contain different levels of endogenous ABA.
ABA levels in the mutant sitiens were reduced to 8% of
the wild type, in notabilis they were reduced to 47%,
and in flacca they were reduced to 21%. In wild-type
and notabilis tomato plants the induction of
Pin2 gene expression could be elicited by heat
treatment, current application, or mechanical wounding. In
flacca and sitiens only heat stimulation
induced Pin2 gene expression. JA levels in
flacca and sitiens plants also
accumulated strongly upon heat stimulation but not upon mechanical
wounding or current application. Characteristic electrical signals
evolved in the wild type and in the notabilis and
flacca mutants consisting of a fast action potential and
a slow variation potential. However, in sitiens only
heat evoked electrical signals; mechanical wounding and current
application did not change the membrane potential. In addition,
exogenous application of ABA to wild-type tomato plants induced
transient changes in membrane potentials, indicating the involvement of
ABA in the generation of electrical signals. Our data strongly suggest
the presence of a minimum threshold value of ABA within the plant that
is essential for the early events in electrical signaling and mediation
of Pin2 gene expression upon wounding. In contrast,
heat-induced Pin2 gene expression and membrane potential
changes were not dependent on the ABA level but, rather, on the
accumulation of JA.The plant hormones ABA and JA play a predominant role in the
conversion of environmental signals into changes in plant gene
expression. An increase in endogenous ABA and JA levels precedes and is
involved in Pin2 (proteinase
inhibitor II) gene expression upon wounding
(Peña-Cortés et al., 1989, 1991, 1995, 1996; Farmer and
Ryan, 1992; Farmer et al., 1992). This increase in ABA and JA is not
restricted to the tissue damaged directly but can also be detected in
the nonwounded, systemically induced tissue
(Peña-Cortés et al., 1989; Peña-Cortés and
Willmitzer, 1995). The accumulation of ABA and JA have been described
for several plant species, including potato, tomato, and tobacco
(Sanchez-Serrano et al., 1991; Peña-Cortés and Willmitzer,
1995).Further evidence for the involvement of ABA and JA in wound-induced
Pin2 gene expression was provided by a series of experiments
in which potato plants were sprayed with ABA or JA and Pin2
mRNA accumulated in the absence of any wounding
(Peña-Cortés et al., 1989; Hildmann et al., 1992). Both
nonsprayed leaves and leaves that were sprayed directly showed
increased Pin2 mRNA levels with a pattern identical to the
one described for wounded plants (Peña-Cortés et al., 1988;
Peña-Cortés and Willmitzer, 1995). Conclusive evidence for
the involvement of ABA in wound-induced Pin2 activation was
obtained from mutants impaired in ABA biosynthesis. Consequently, wound
induction of Pin2 was not observed in the droopy
mutant of potato or the sitiens mutant of tomato
(Peña-Cortés et al., 1989). However, in these mutants
treatment with ABA caused a return of the accumulation of
Pin2 mRNA to levels normally found in wild-type plants upon
wounding (Peña-Cortés et al., 1991).Like wounding, the application of electrical current was able to
initiate ABA and JA accumulation in wild-type plants but not in
ABA-deficient plants (Herde et al., 1996). These results suggested
that, like wounding, electrical current requires the presence of ABA
for the induction of Pin2 gene expression (Herde et al.,
1996). In contrast to wounding and electrical current, burning of
leaves activated Pin2 gene expression in sitiens
mutants by directly triggering the biosynthesis of JA via an
alternative pathway that is independent of endogenous ABA levels (Herde
et al., 1996).To determine the endogenous levels of ABA that are sufficient to
mediate electrical current-, heat-, and wound- induced Pin2
gene expression via electrical signals, we used several tomato mutants
containing progressively reduced levels of ABA. The effects of these
attenuated ABA levels on JA content and membrane potentials and the
expression pattern of Pin2 genes were analyzed. Analysis of
JA content was conducted to confirm the existence of an alternative
pathway that is independent of endogenous ABA levels in the different
ABA-deficient mutants. 相似文献

There is an increased accumulation of message for the catalytic (70-kDa) subunit of the tonoplast H+-ATPase in leaves of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.) plants responding to NaCl. To determine if abscisic acid (ABA) mediates this response, message accumulation was examined in treatments designed to separate exposure to NaCl from increases in endogenous ABA. Under three different experimental conditions, salt-induced changes in the accumulation of 70-kDa message were unrelated to any change in endogenous ABA. The results were as follows: (i) under drought stress, plants accumulated levels of ABA similar to those measured in salt-treated plants; however, no increase in 70-kDa subunit message was observed; (ii) the ABA-deficient mutant sitiens exhibited an increased accumulation of message despite the absence of NaCl-induced accumulation of ABA; and (iii) the inhibitor of general isoprenoid biosynthesis, Lovastatin, blocked NaCl-induced accumulation of ABA but did not alter NaCl-induced accumulation of message. In addition to these three experimental responses, application of exogenous ABA increased endogenous ABA levels without any comparable increase in message accumulation. Based on these results, it is concluded that ABA does not mediate the NaCl-induced accumulation of 70-kDa subunit tonoplast H+ -ATPase message accumulation in tomato. 相似文献

It has previously been shown that the abscisic acid (ABA)-deficient flacca and sitiens mutants of tomato are impaired in ABA-aldehyde oxidation and accumulate trans-ABA-alcohol as a result of the biosynthetic block (IB Taylor, RST Linforth, RJ Al-Naieb, WR Bowman, BA Marples [1988] Plant Cell Environ 11: 739-745). Here we report that the flacca and sitiens mutants accumulate trans-ABA and trans-ABA glucose ester and that this accumulation is due to trans-ABA biosynthesis. 18O labeling of water-stressed wild-type and mutant tomato leaves and analysis of [18O]ABA by tandem mass spectrometry show that the tomato mutants synthesize a significant percentage of their ABA and trans-ABA as [18O]ABA with two 18O atoms in the carboxyl group. We further show, by feeding experiments with [2H6]ABA-alcohol and 18O2, that this doubly-carboxyl-labeled ABA is synthesized from [18O]ABA-alcohol with incorporation of molecular oxygen. In vivo inhibition of [2H6]ABA-alcohol oxidation by carbon monoxide establishes the involvement of a P-450 monooxygenase. Likewise, carbon monoxide inhibits the synthesis of doubly-carboxyl-labeled ABA in 18O-labeling experiments. This minor shunt pathway from ABA-aldehyde to ABA-alcohol to ABA operates in all plants examined. For the ABA-deficient mutants impaired in ABA-aldehyde oxidation, this shunt pathway is an important source of ABA and is physiologically significant. 相似文献

Lycopersicon esculentum plants exhibit increased salt stress tolerance following treatment with adipic acid monoethylester and 1,3-diaminepropane (DAAME), known as an inducer of resistance against biotic stress in tomato and pepper. For an efficient water and nutrient uptake, plants should adapt their water potential to compensate a decrease in water soil potential produced by salt stress. DAAME-treated plants showed a faster and stronger water potential reduction and an enhanced proline accumulation. Salinity-induced oxidative stress was also ameliorated by DAAME treatments. Oxidative membrane damage and ethylene emission were both reduced in DAAME-treated plants. This effect is probably a consequence of an increase of both non-enzymatic antioxidant activity as well as peroxidase activity. DAAME-mediated tolerance resulted in an unaltered photosynthetic rate and a stimulation of the decrease in transpiration under stress conditions without a cost in growth due to salt stress. The reduction in transpiration rate was concomitant with a reduction in phytotoxic Na+ and Cl− accumulation under saline stress. Interestingly, the ABA deficient tomato mutant sitiens was insensitive to DAAME-induced tolerance following NaCl stress exposure. Additionally, DAAME treatments increased the ABA content of leaves, therefore, an intact ABA signalling pathway seems to be important to express DAAME-induced salt tolerance. Here, we show a possibility of enhance tomato stress tolerance by chemical induction of the major plant defences against salt stress. DAAME-induced tolerance against salt stress could be complementary to or share elements with induced resistance against biotic stress. This might be the reason for the observed wide spectrum of effectiveness of this compound.Key Words: adipic acid monoethyl ester, 1,3-diaminepropane, Lycopersicon esculentum, salt stress, oxidative stress, ethylene, chemical induced tolerance 相似文献

The effect of maturation on the morphological and photosynthetic characteristics, as well as the expression of two genes involved in photosynthesis in the developing, current year foliage of Eastern larch (Larix laricina [Du Roi]) is described. These effects were observed on foliage during the third growing season after grafting of scions from trees of different ages onto 2 year old rootstock. Specific leaf weight (gram dry weight per square meter), leaf cross-sectional area (per square millimeter), and chlorophyll content (milligram per gram dry weight) all increase with increasing age in long shoot foliage from both indoor- and outdoor-grown trees. Net photosynthesis (NPS) (mole of CO2 per square millimeter per second) increases with age on indoor- but not outdoor-grown trees. NPS also increases with increased chlorophyll content, but outdoor-grown scions of all ages had higher chlorophyll content, and chlorophyll does not appear to be limiting for NPS outdoors. To extend these studies of maturation-related differences in foliar morphology and physiology to the molecular genetic level, sequences were cloned from the cab and rbsS gene families of larch. Both cab and rbcS gene families are expressed in foliage but not in roots, and they are expressed in light-grown seedlings of larch but only at very low levels in dark-grown seedlings (~2% of light-grown seedlings). Steady-state cab mRNA levels are relatively higher (~40%) in newly expanding short shoot foliage from juvenile plants compared to mature plants. Unlike cab, the expression of the rbcS gene family did not seem to vary with age. These data show that the maturation-related changes in morphological and physiological phenotypes are associated with changes in gene expression. No causal relationship has been established, however. Indeed, we conclude that the faster growth of juvenile scions reported previously (MS Greenwood, CA Hopper, KW Hutchison [1989] Plant Physiol 90: 406-412) is not due to increased NPS or cab expression. Long shoot foliage is the dominant foliar type on young trees and its lower specific leaf weight will permit production of more photosynthetic surface area per unit of leaf biomass. 相似文献

Photosynthetic Genes of Petunia (Mitchell) Are Differentially Expressed during the Diurnal Cycle 总被引:2,自引:1,他引:1
The petunia (Petunia [Mitchell]) chloroplast proteins, the chlorophyll a/b-binding (Cab) proteins, and the small subunit of ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase (RbcS) are encoded by nuclear genes that are expressed in a light-dependent manner. The steady-state concentrations of five cab mRNAs vary with a dramatic circadian rhythm in plants grown under a constant diurnal cycle (10 hours light, 14 hours dark). cab mRNA levels reach their maximum during the light period, but begin to drop prior to the dark period. These RNAs fall to their minimum concentration during the dark period and then begin to increase again in anticipation of the light. Within this general pattern, there are variations in expression among specific classes of cab genes. The light harvesting complex of photosystem II LHCII-type 1 cab mRNAs rise to a well-defined maximum at 2 hours prior to the dark period. All but one of these genes are expressed in anticipation of the light period. The LHCII type 2 cab mRNA and the LHC of photosystem I cab mRNA are expressed at more constant levels throughout the light period. The expression of these genes anticipates the light more than does the expression of the LHCII type 1 genes. The steady state mRNA levels for the petunia rbcS genes show no significant diurnal fluctuation. 相似文献

Abscisic acid root and leaf concentration in relation to biomass partitioning in salinized tomato plants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Salinization is one of the most important causes of crop productivity reduction in many areas of the world. Mechanisms that control leaf growth and shoot development under the osmotic phase of salinity are still obscure, and opinions differ regarding the Abscisic acid (ABA) role in regulation of biomass allocation under salt stress. ABA concentration in roots and leaves was analyzed in a genotype of processing tomato under two increasing levels of salinity stress for five weeks: 100 mM NaCl (S10) and 150 mM NaCl (S15), to study the effect of ABA changes on leaf gas exchange and dry matter partitioning of this crop under salinity conditions. In S15, salinization decreased dry matter by 78% and induced significant increases of Na+ and Cl− in both leaves and roots. Dry matter allocated in different parts of plant was significantly different in salt-stressed treatments, as salinization increased root/shoot ratio 2-fold in S15 and 3-fold in S15 compared to the control. Total leaf water potential (Ψw) decreased from an average value of approximately −1.0 MPa, measured on control plants and S10, to −1.17 MPa in S15. In S15, photosynthesis was reduced by 23% and stomatal conductance decreased by 61%. Moreover, salinity induced ABA accumulation both in tomato leaves and roots of the more stressed treatment (S15), where ABA level was higher in roots than in leaves (550 and 312 ng g−1 fresh weight, respectively). Our results suggest that the dynamics of ABA and ion accumulation in tomato leaves significantly affected both growth and gas exchange-related parameters in tomato. In particular, ABA appeared to be involved in the tomato salinity response and could play an important role in dry matter partitioning between roots and shoots of tomato plants subjected to salt stress. 相似文献

Overexpression of barley <Emphasis Type="Italic">hva1</Emphasis> gene in creeping bentgrass for improving drought tolerance 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The objectives of this study were to test the feasibility of introducing barley hva1 gene, a LEA3 member, into perennial grass species using the Agrobacterium-mediated transformation technique and to determine whether heterologous expression of hva1 would alleviate water-deficit injury in grass species. Creeping bentgrass (Agrostis stolonifera var. palustris), a drought-intolerant grass species, was transformed transiently or stably using three different promoters in conjunction
with the downstream report/target genes. Two abscisic acid (ABA)-inducible promoters, ABA1 and ABA2 derived from ABA-response complex (ABRC3) were used to examine stress-responsive expression of the green fluorescent protein
(GFP). Transient expression of GFP demonstrated the inducibility of ABA1 and ABA2 promoters in response to exogenous ABA application. The ABA2 promoter was further studied for stress-responsive expression of hva1 and a maize Ubi-1 promoter was tested for constitutive expression of the gene. In the T0 generation, the Ubi-1::hva1 transformants displayed variable expression levels of HVA1 protein under normal growth conditions. The hva1 gene in the ABA2::hva1 transformants maintained low expression under well-watered conditions, but was upregulated under water-deficit conditions.
The tolerance to water deficit of T0 transgenic lines was assessed by measuring leaf relative water content and visually rating the severity of leaf wilting during
to water stress. Under water-stressed conditions, some transgenic lines maintained high water content in leaves and showed
significantly less extent of leaf wilting compared with non-transgenic control plants. These results indicated that the introduction
of barley hva1 gene using constitutive or stress-inducible promoters lessened water-deficit injury in creeping bentgrass, suggesting that
heterologous expression of LEA3 protein genes may enhance the survival ability of creeping bentgrass in water limiting environments. 相似文献

Stomatal responses to jasmonic acid, linolenic acid and abscisic acid in wild-type and ABA-deficient tomato plants 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9
Wild-type and abscisic acid (ABA) -deficient (sitiens) tomato plants were used to analyse the effects of abscisic acid (ABA), butyric acid (BA), jasmonic acid (JA) and linolenic acid (LA) on assimilation and transpiration rates in detached leaves taking up those substances into the transpiration stream. BA did not affect assimilation and transpiration rates. ABA decreased assimilation and transpiration in both wild-type and ABA-deficient mutants. JA reduced the assimilation rate in both lines but induced a significant reduction of transpiration in the wild type only. The response to LA in both lines was slower than that to JA. 相似文献
