小麦种子含锌量在幼苗中的分配与对缺锌敏感性的关系

应用三个种子含锌量不同的小麦品系为实验材料,研究了在缺锌和供锌条件下锌在小麦幼苗中的分配规律。实验证明在缺锌的条件下,小麦幼苗植株含锌量与种子的含锌量成正相关。锌在三个品系小麦不同叶位中的分配规律是一致的,但种子含锌量低的小麦向幼叶中分配的锌量比例大。在供锌的条件下,种子含锌量高的品系地上部的总锌量比低锌品系高。     

小麦锌营养状况对锌吸收的影响

不论锌的供给形态是无视态(ZnSO_4),还是螯合态(ZnEDTA 或 Zn—PS),小麦锌吸收率均随供锌浓度的提高而增加。缺锌小麦锌吸收率明显高于对照。供ZnEDTA的小麦锌吸收率低于供ZnSO_4和 Zn—PS的小麦。无机态Zn~(24)在根自由空间内累积多,而 ZnEDTA态锌在根自由空间中累积少,缺锌小麦根分泌的有机物质对前者活化量大于后者、被植物吸收利用的数量也就高于后者。     

大豆种子储藏性磷对幼苗适应低磷胁迫的作用

选用种子大小不同、磷效率不同的两个大豆品种‘巴西10号’(B10)和‘本地2号’(L2),在不同供磷条件下进行营养液浇灌沙培,从大豆萌发至2片三出复叶完全展开期测定植株主要器官总磷、可溶性磷浓度、子叶可溶性蛋白、酸性磷酸酶比活性、植酸酶比活性的变化动态,探讨储藏性磷在大豆幼苗期适应磷胁迫中的作用。结果发现:(1)磷效率不同的两个大豆品种的种子中磷含量差异显著。(2)大豆萌发和幼苗生长过程中子叶的磷逐渐转入根、茎、叶中,并以转入叶中的磷最多,其中磷高效品种B10在发芽过程中子叶磷向各个器官转移的总磷量要高于磷低效品种L2,且持续时间长。(3)大豆萌发和幼苗生长过程中外源供磷水平显著影响子叶磷的转移,在外源供磷充足条件下各器官中总磷均高于低供磷条件,子叶中磷和外源磷存在补偿关系。(4)磷高效品种B10子叶中酸性磷酸酶活性在低磷条件下显著高于高磷条件,但磷低效品种L2在高、低磷间无显著差异。研究表明,大豆种子储藏性磷在幼苗期耐低磷能力建立方面具有重要作用。     

供磷水平对小麦幼苗利用胚乳中磷的影响

用液培方法研究不同基因型小麦苗期获取磷素的结果表明,在种子胚乳含有充足磷源时,小麦幼苗优先吸收环境中的磷,只有在缺磷条件下,小麦幼苗才利用胚乳中贮存的磷,不同基因型小麦的表现不同。     

供磷水平对小麦幼苗利用胚乳中磷的影响（简报）

用液培方法研究不同基因型小麦苗期获取磷素的结果表明,在种子胚乳含有充足磷源时,小麦幼苗优先吸收环境中的磷;只有在缺磷条件下,小麦幼苗才利用胚乳中贮存的磷.不同基因型小麦的表现不同.     

低锌和缺锌对玉米生长发育的影响

以玉米沈单10号为材料,用溶液培养的方法研究了缺锌、低锌和正常供锌对玉米生长发育的影响,进一步明确了一定量低锌比缺锌对玉米的伤害更大,并对其POD、SOD、CAT同工酶谱及蛋白质表达进行了分析、结果表明：一定浓度的低锌培养使玉米生长受抑及受害最重,且地上部分比地下部分更敏感。低锌和缺锌处理时3种同工酶的酶谱和蛋白表达与正常供锌时均有明显的差异,尤其在一定量低锌浓度时,有些同工酶的表达增强或被特异性诱导,而另一些酶的合成受阻;低锌和缺锌处理都诱导出了新的蛋白组分,也缺失了部分蛋白组分,且低锌比缺锌时缺失的蛋白组分更多。这些变化可能与玉米生长发育及受害密切相关。     

锌营养状况对小麦根细胞膜透性的影响

小麦缺锌不仅导致根系K~ 和NO_3~-泌出量增加,而且低分子量有机化合物如氨基酸、糖类化合物和酚类化合物的泌出量也明显提高。重新供锌(ZnSO_4)12h后,根系K~ 、NO_3~-、氨基酸和碳水化合物的泌出量迅速减少,随着时间的延长,泌出量接近对照水平。结果说明锌对根细胞膜结构的稳定性及膜功能的完整性是必不可少的。     

水杨酸对锌胁迫下小麦幼苗生长抑制的缓解效应

以小麦品种‘新麦18’为材料,采用室内水培实验研究了不同浓度水杨酸(SA)处理对300 mg.L-1锌胁迫下小麦种子萌发和幼苗生长的影响。结果表明:在Zn2+胁迫下,小麦种子的发芽势和发芽率、幼苗根长、芽长以及幼苗叶片的可溶性蛋白含量、根系活力显著降低,而脯氨酸和丙二醛(MDA)含量显著增加(P<0.05);外施SA显著提高了Zn2+胁迫下小麦种子的发芽势和发芽率,同时也使Zn2+胁迫7 d后的小麦幼苗的根长、芽长,幼苗叶片的脯氨酸和可溶性蛋白含量以及根系活力显著升高,膜脂过氧化产物MDA含量却显著降低(P<0.05)。由此可见,外施SA可通过提高小麦幼苗根长和芽长来增加幼苗根系活力,通过提高小麦幼苗可溶性蛋白含量、脯氨酸含量来维持细胞膜的稳定性,降低膜脂过氧化伤害程度,从而缓解了Zn2+胁迫对幼苗生长的抑制,并以14 mg.L-1外源水杨酸缓解效果最好。     

葡萄糖对干旱胁迫下小麦种子萌发及幼苗生长的调节作用

干旱胁迫会抑制小麦种子的萌发及生长,20%聚乙二醇(PEG-6000)模拟干旱胁迫的同时施以不同浓度的外源葡萄糖处理小麦种子,探讨外源葡萄糖对干旱胁迫下小麦种子萌发及幼苗生长的影响。14 h光照/10 h黑暗的光周期培养条件下,较低浓度的葡萄糖(0.02 mmol/L和0.05 mmol/L)促进了干旱胁迫下小麦种子的萌发及幼苗生长,但较高浓度的葡萄糖(0.1 mmol/L,0.2 mmol/L及0.5 mmol/L)加强了干旱胁迫对小麦种子萌发及幼苗生长的抑制效应;而在黑暗条件下培养,葡萄糖的上述调节作用消失。以上结果说明葡萄糖对干旱胁迫下小麦种子萌发及幼苗生长的调节作用具有浓度效应,并且依赖于光。     

γ辐照对小麦种子延迟发光的影响

应用延迟发光的理论与方法,研究了γ辐照对扬麦13、扬麦15两个品种小麦种子的影响。结果表明:被测样品延迟发光的弛豫过程可以用非线性动力学方程Y=b1+b2e-b3t/1+b4t来进行描述,该方程对测量结果拟合的相关系数达到了99%以上。当t=0时,Y0=b1+b2,即样品的初始发光强度,在光照条件一定时,辐照剂量越高,样品的初始发光强度就越低。F测验结果表明不同辐照剂量对小麦种子初始发光强度的影响达到了极显著的水平,即受照剂量越高,初始发光强度越低,而两种供试小麦间的初始发光强度并无显著差异。结合处理种子苗期的生物学观察,样品(即种子)的初始发光强度与幼苗株高具有一致的变化趋势,即种子的初始发光强度越高,幼苗株高也高。因此,对辐射种子延迟发光过程的分析,可能是了解γ辐照对作物种子影响的一种快速可靠的检测方法。     

盐和重金属复合胁迫对翅碱蓬萌发与生长的影响及调控措施

为探究Zn、Cu与盐复合胁迫对翅碱蓬(Suaeda salsa)萌发生长的影响机理及其调控措施,以翅碱蓬为研究对象,采用水培试验方法,测定Zn、Cu和盐复合胁迫条件下翅碱蓬种子发芽率、萌发速率和幼苗渗透调节物质含量等指标,分析1.5 mg/L吲哚乙酸(IAA)、100 mg/L赤霉素(GA)和0.3%硝酸钾(KNO₃)处理对Zn、Cu与盐复合胁迫条件下翅碱蓬萌发与生长的影响。结果表明：(1) Zn、Cu与高盐复合胁迫极显著降低翅碱蓬种子的发芽率,中高浓度的Zn、Cu与盐复合胁迫极显著降低翅碱蓬种子的萌发速率,Zn、Cu和盐复合胁迫对翅碱蓬种子的萌发生长影响表现为低促高抑效应,影响因子间存在明显的协同效应;(2)Zn、Cu和盐复合胁迫条件下,随着盐浓度的升高,翅碱蓬幼苗体内过氧化氢酶(CAT)、过氧化物酶(POD)和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)3种抗氧化酶活性呈先升高后降低的变化趋势,Zn、Cu和高盐复合胁迫使翅碱蓬幼苗体内丙二醛(MDA)含量增加近2.5倍;(3)1.5 mg/L IAA溶液浸种12 h可显著提高Zn、Cu与高盐复合胁迫条件下翅碱蓬种子的发芽率和萌发速...     

Soil Seed Bank as an Input of Seed Source in Revegetation of Lead / Zinc Mine Tailings

The goal of the present study was to assess a soil seed bank as an input seed source for revegetating lead/zinc (Pb/Zn) mine tailings. The seed bank source was abandoned farmland, whose top 10‐cm layer of topsoil contained 6,850 ± 377 seeds/m² from 41 species. The seeds in the soil were principally distributed in the upper 0–2 cm, which held 75.8% of total seeds and 92.7% of species composition. The top 2‐cm layer of topsoil may be sufficient to serve the purpose of providing a seed source for revegetation on derelict lands, including mined lands. Four different thicknesses of topsoil (1, 2, 4, and 8 cm, redistributed from the total 0–10‐cm layer from the farmland) were field‐tested on the Pb/Zn mine tailings. There was no significant difference in seedling density among the 4 thickness treatments. Many seeds in the treatments with more than 1‐cm of topsoil were unable to emerge from the deeper layer. Seedlings in plots with topsoil of 1‐, 2‐ and 4‐cm failed to establish within 1 year due to the extremely high acidity (pH 2.39 to 2.76). A shallow layer of topsoil cannot neutralize the sulfuric acid generated from oxidation of pyrites in the tailings. For establishment of seedlings on metalliferous lands, an insulating layer such as subsoil, building rubble, or domestic refuse is necessary before covering with valuable topsoil. The woody legume Leucaena leucocephala grown on the tailings with a topsoil cover of 8‐cm was the most dominant species. Lead was accumulated in root, branch, stem bark, and xylem, which accounted for more than 80% of the total metal concentration in the plant. This portion of Pb will reside in the plant for a long period, while the smaller portion of Pb in the leaf (about 15%) could be returned to the environment as litter during growth. Woody plants may have an advantage in metal‐phyto‐remediation over herbaceous plants.     

Developmental Differences in Embryos of High and Low Protein Wheat Seeds during Germination

Developmental patterns of embryos from high and low protein wheat (Triticum aestivum) grain produced under varied fertilizer conditions were compared. High protein grain produced seedlings 25% heavier with 25% more total RNA, 30% more DNA, 40% more amino acids, 60% more ribosomes, and 80% more soluble protein content than that of low protein seed. Consistently higher glutamine synthetase and α-amylase and lower acid phosphatase activities were observed in high protein seeds, though the isozyme pattern of α-amylase was not different in the two kinds of seeds. The high total ribosomes and particularly, polysome content observed in high protein seeds may be responsible for the rapid growth and high yield of these seeds.     

不同供Zn水平下HCO3-对小麦幼苗生长和活性氧代谢的影响

采用营养液培养法,研究了不同pH条件下高浓度HCO3- (10 mmol/L) 在缺Zn和正常供Zn时对小麦幼苗生长,尤其是对活性氧自由基代谢的影响.结果表明,在酸性或碱性营养液中,HCO3- 在缺Zn时均显著降低小麦根系生长量,正常供Zn时HCO3-对后者的影响则不明显.缺Zn条件下,HCO3- 在pH为6的营养液中使小麦根系和叶片中活性氧产生速率分别上升9.9%和3.9%,在pH为8的营养液中分别上升10.9%和5.7%;正常供Zn时HCO3-虽使根系和叶片中活性氧产生速率增加,但幅度有所降低.缺Zn时HCO3-大幅度降低小麦根系中POD、CAT、SOD 3种保护酶的活性,而正常供Zn在一定程度上则能缓解HCO3-对小麦根系组织中膜脂的过氧化作用.正常供Zn与缺Zn相比,后者显著增加小麦根系和叶片中的自氧化速率.     

Zinc tolerance and accumulation in metallicolous and nonmetallicolous populations of Arabidopsis halleri (Brassicaceae)

Zinc tolerance was investigated in five populations of Arabidopsis halleri (syn.: Cardaminopsis halleri ) raised from seeds collected from contaminated and uncontaminated sites. Tolerance was measured by determining the concentration which inhibited root growth (EC₁₀₀). A. halleri populations from contaminated and uncontaminated sites were found to be Zn-tolerant compared with the Zn-nontolerant species Arabidopsis thaliana and A. lyrata subsp. petraea . At very high Zn concentrations, populations of A. halleri from uncontaminated sites were slightly less Zn-tolerant than those from contaminated sites. These observations support the hypothesis that in A. halleri , Zn tolerance is largely a constitutive property. One population from an uncontaminated site and one population from a contaminated site were studied for Zn uptake. Zinc content was measured in shoots and roots using a colorimetric test under laboratory conditions. The results showed that whatever their origin, individuals from both populations are Zn accumulators compared with the nonaccumulator species A. thaliana . Moreover, the population from the uncontaminated area accumulated Zn in its shoots and roots more quickly than the population from the contaminated site. These results suggest that, in A. halleri , Zn accumulation to very high concentration is a constitutive property.     

种子大小和干旱胁迫对辽东栎幼苗生长和生理特性的影响

在温室内遮阴条件下,设置80%、60%、40%和20%田间持水量(对照、轻度、中度和重度干旱)4个处理,研究种子大小和干旱胁迫对盆栽辽东栎幼苗生长和生理特性的影响。结果表明: 大种子(3.05±0.38 g)幼苗的单株叶面积、总干质量和根冠比在所有处理均显著大于小种子(1.46±0.27 g)幼苗,前者的株高、基径、叶片数、比叶面积、相对生长率和净同化率等生长参数在轻度、中度和重度干旱处理均不同程度大于后者。大种子幼苗叶片过氧化物酶(POD)、过氧化氢酶(CAT)和超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)活性均高于小种子幼苗,前者叶片丙二醛(MDA)、可溶性蛋白、游离脯氨酸含量和叶绿素总量在部分干旱处理显著大于后者。除根冠比外,其他生长参数均随干旱胁迫增强逐渐减小,重度干旱处理大、小种子幼苗总干质量分别比对照降低19.4%和20.0%。POD、CAT和SOD活性均随干旱胁迫增强先升后降,在中度干旱处理,大、小种子幼苗POD活性分别显著高于对照126.7%和142.1%,CAT活性分别显著高于对照170.0%和151.9%。在重度干旱处理,大、小种子幼苗MDA含量分别显著高于对照86.5%和68.9%。可溶性蛋白、游离脯氨酸含量和叶绿素总量均随干旱胁迫增强先升后降,在中度干旱处理,大、小种子幼苗可溶性蛋白含量分别显著高于对照320.7%和352.7%。辽东栎大种子幼苗可依赖其生长和生理方面的优势比小种子幼苗具有更强的干旱耐受性,在退化次生林人工辅助实生更新中应优先选用抗逆性更强的大种子幼苗。     

供锌条件下碳酸钙对小麦幼苗生长和锌吸收的影响

通过营养液培养试验,研究了供Zn条件下添加CaCO₃对3种基因型冬小麦（远丰998、中育6号、小偃22）幼苗生长及Zn吸收的影响.结果表明,供Zn和添加CaCO₃对小麦幼苗生长量和根冠比均无显著性影响,3种基因型小麦间亦无显著性差异;添加CaCO₃诱发了小麦叶片失绿黄化.无论供Zn还是不供Zn,添加CaCO₃对3种基因型小麦根、茎、叶各部分的Zn含量及累积量均无显著性影响;与不供Zn处理相比,供Zn会大幅度地提高根、茎、叶的Zn含量和累积量,供Zn使3种基因型小麦植株Zn含量分别增加80.0%、104.8%和139.6%,缺Zn敏感型小麦远丰998植株Zn含量和累积量的增加幅度远小于不敏感型小麦中育6号和小偃22.供Zn和添加CaCO₃对小麦幼苗根、茎、叶中P含量均无显著影响,但远丰998小麦根、茎、叶3部分的P含量均明显低于其它两种非敏感型小麦.供Zn使小麦根、茎、叶3部分的P/Zn大幅度降低,添加CaCO₃也使P/Zn呈现降低的趋势.不供Zn条件下添加CaCO₃能诱发小麦失绿黄化,但Zn吸收量未降低.表明在水培条件下,高含量CaCO₃对小麦Zn吸收并未产生明显的抑制作用.     

Developing of a simple method for screening soybean seedling cadmium accumulation to select soybean genotypes with low seed cadmium

Significant inter-cultivar differences of soybean seed cadmium (Cd) concentrations arise from the inter-cultivar differences in root Cd accumulation ability. The Cd concentration in the shoots of plants at the vegetative stage is already controlled by the roots Cd concentration in the same way that it determines seed Cd concentration. Based on these results we conjectured that there is no need to wait until the full maturity stage because the inter-cultivar difference in seed Cd concentration can be predicted from the Cd concentration in the shoots of seedlings. To test this theory, we cultivated 150 cultivars/lines to the harvest stage in a field not contaminated with Cd and measured seed Cd concentration. We also planted seeds in pots filled with contaminated soil, cultivated them for 3 weeks, and measured the Cd concentration of the seedling obtained at the 5th-node (V5) stage when the 4th trifoliolate leaf had expanded. The 150 cultivars/lines were roughly divided into 2 groups based on the relationship between these 2 Cd concentrations. One group was cultivars in which seedlings and seeds both had low Cd concentrations (low Cd accumulation group, n?=?129), and the other group was the opposite (high Cd accumulation group, n?=?21). Further, when we predicted seed Cd concentration using the ratio of Cd and Zn concentrations in seedlings, we were able to clearly divide the 2 groups with no overlap. Measuring Cd/Zn in seedlings therefore makes it possible to select cultivars with low Cd accumulation tendency readily, without waiting to harvest the seeds. Additionally, by investigating genealogies we found that varieties in the high-Cd accumulation group were descended from certain cultivars such as Harosoy.     

‘On-farm’ seed priming with zinc in chickpea and wheat in Pakistan

A series of on-station trials was implemented between 2002 and 2006 to assess the response of wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) and chickpea (Cicer arietinum) to zinc (Zn) added by soaking seeds (priming) in solutions of ZnSO₄ before sowing. Wheat seed was primed for 10 h in 0.3% Zn and chickpea for 6 h in 0.05% Zn. Seed treatments increased the seed concentration in wheat from 27 to 470 mg/kg and in chickpea from 49 to 780 mg/kg. Priming wheat seeds with 0.3% Zn significantly increased the mean shoot dry mass, Zn concentration and Zn uptake of 15-day-old seedlings relative to non-primed controls and seeds primed with water alone. Using 0.4% Zn further increased shoot Zn concentration but depressed shoot dry mass to the level of the non-primed control. In seven trials, mean grain yield of wheat was significantly increased from 2.28 to 2.42 t/ha (6%) by priming with water alone and to 2.61 t/ha (14%) by priming with 0.3% Zn. Mean grain yield of chickpea in seven trials was increased significantly from 1.39 to 1.65 t/ha (19%) by priming seeds with 0.05% Zn. The effect of priming chickpea seeds with water was intermediate (1.49 t/ha) and not statistically separable from the non-primed and zinc-primed treatments. Increased grain yield due to priming in both crops was associated with increases in total biomass but there was no significant effect of priming on harvest index. In addition to increasing yield, priming seeds with Zn also significantly increased grain zinc concentration, by 12% in wheat (mean of three trials) and by 29% in chickpea (one trial) and the total amount of Zn taken up by the grain (by 27% in wheat and by 130% in chickpea). Using ZnSO₄ to prime seeds was very cost-effective, with net benefit-to-cost ratios of 75 for wheat and 780 for chickpea. An erratum to this article can be found at     

西天山野果林不同居群黑果小檗土壤种子库及幼苗更新研究

通过野外调查及采集土样,对新疆西天山野果林内黑果小檗(Berberis atrocarpa Schneid.)3个自然居群(霍城、新源和特克斯)的土壤种子库及幼苗更新情况进行研究。结果显示,3个居群内黑果小檗土壤种子质量无显著差异,霍城、新源和特克斯居群黑果小檗土壤种子库中完整种子分别占种子总数的51.6%、49.4%和54.1%。霍城、新源和特克斯居群黑果小檗完整种子均聚集在枯枝落叶层,分别为98.4%、97.4%和100%,3个居群5~10 cm土层均未发现黑果小檗种子。土壤种子水平扩散距离随着坡度的增加逐渐增大。霍城、新源和特克斯居群黑果小檗幼苗均为根蘖苗,根蘖繁殖可使幼苗扩散到母株周围100 cm范围或更远处。Ⅱ级苗(20~40 cm)数量最多,占幼苗总数的50%;3个居群黑果小檗的Ⅰ级苗(0~20 cm)向Ⅱ级苗的转化率均为100%;霍城和新源居群Ⅱ级、Ⅲ级(40~60 cm)苗间的转化率较低,分别为29%和32%,特克斯居群Ⅱ级、Ⅲ级苗间的转化率较高,为78%。研究结果表明西天山野果林黑果小檗种子易滞留于地表,难以进入土壤深层且土壤中种子霉变率高,这可能是黑果小檗自然更新困难的原因。
