茶叶主要化学品质指标和茶树体部分微量元素的钙铝调控效应

以一年生茶树扦插苗为材料,采用水培法研究了添加钙铝对茶叶主要化学品质及茶树钙、铝、锌、铁吸收积累的调控效应.结果表明:(1)适量铝(10或20mg·L-1)有利于提高茶叶茶多酚、咖啡碱、黄酮、可溶性总糖和氨基酸的含量;添加钙可提高上述化学成分的含量,且在高铝浓度(30mg·L-1)下提高的幅度最大.(2)适量的铝可促进茶树对铝和铁的吸收和积累,而高浓度的铝(30mg·L-1)抑制茶树对铝和铁的吸收与积累;添加铝可降低茶树根对钙和锌的吸收,但适量添加铝不影响茎和叶对钙和锌的积累.(3)添加钙可提高茶树体钙的含量,降低铝和锌的吸收与积累,但对铁的吸收与积累没有明显影响.研究表明,铝和钙可调控茶叶化学品质含量和茶树体微量元素的吸收;合理控制茶园土壤铝积累,并适量补充钙可能有利于提高茶叶品质,创建生态高值茶园.     

Alleviation of Aluminum Stress and Stimulation of Tea Pollen Tube Growth by Fluorine

Aluminum (Al) and fluorine (F) were found to affect tea pollentube growth on an agar medium. Not only was the growth stronglyrepressed by increasing Al content of the medium but it wasalso distinctly affected by declining pH from 5.2 to 4.4. Additionof 0.2 mM Al as Al₂(SO₄)₃ to a pH 4.6 medium containing 1.2%agar, 8% sucrose and 17 ppm boron remarkably repressed tea pollentube growth. However, NaF added to medium containing Al clearlyalleviated the growth inhibition. This effect was observed with0.2 mM and 0.4 HIM NaF, and the presence of 0.6 mM and 1.2 DIMNaF with 0.2 mM Al even produced a stimulatory effect. Treatmentwith NaF alone significantly stimulated growth at pH 4.6 and5.2. These results indicate that Al-F complexes have a favorablerather than adverse effect on tea pollen tube growth.

Seasonal Changes in Activities of Enzymes Responsible for the Formation of C6-aldehydes and C6-alcohols in Tea Leaves, and the Effects of Environmental Temperatures on the Enzyme Activities

When tea leaves were homogenized and incubated, the volatileC₆-compounds hexanal, cis-3-hexenal, cis-3-hexenol and trans-2-hexenalwere formed much more by summer leaves than by winter leavesof tea plants (Camellia sinensis). The enzymes lipolytic acylhydrolase (LAH), lipoxygenase, fatty acid hydroperoxide lyase(HPO lyase) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) and an isomerizationfactor were responsible for the sequential reactions of C₆-compoundformation from linoleic and linolenic acids in tea leaf lipids,and there were seasonal changes in their activities. The tealeaf enzymes were of 3 types: LAH and lipoxygenase, which hadhigh activities in summer leaves and low activities in winterleaves; ADH, which had low activity in summer leaves and highactivity in winter ones; and HPO lyase and the isomerizationfactor, which did not seem to have any effect on the rate ofC₆-compound formation throughout the year. Changes in enzymeactivities were induced by shifts in the environmental air temperaturerather than by the age of the leaves. The combined activitiesof these enzymes determined the amounts and compositions ofthe volatile C₆-compounds formed, which are the factors thatcontrol the quality of the raw leaves processed for green tea.

Changes in Volatile C6-Aldehydes Emitted from and Accumulated in Tea Leaves

C₆-Aldehydes emitted from intact tea leaves were analyzed quantitatively.Emission of the aldehydes increased temporarily in mid-May whenenzymatic activities involved in aldehyde formation from lipidsbegan to increase. Levels of C₆-aldehydes in tea leaves alsoincreased temporarily. However, the accumulated C₆-aldehydesdid not always correspond to emitted ones.

Localization of aluminium in tea (Camellia sinensis) leaves using low energy X-ray fluorescence spectro-microscopy

Information on localization of Al in tea leaf tissues is required in order to better understand Al tolerance mechanism in this Al-accumulating plant species. Here, we have used low-energy X-ray fluorescence spectro-microscopy (LEXRF) to study localization of Al and other low Z-elements, namely C, O, Mg, Si and P, in fully developed leaves of the tea plant [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze]. Plants were grown from seeds for 3?months in a hydroponic solution, and then exposed to 200?μM AlCl₃ for 2?weeks. Epidermal-mesophyll and xylem phloem regions of 20?μm thick cryo-fixed freeze-dried tea-leaf cross-sections were raster scanned with 1.7 and 2.2?keV excitation energies to reach the Al–K and P–K absorption edges. Al was mainly localized in the cell walls of the leaf epidermal cells, while almost no Al signal was obtained from the leaf symplast. The results suggest that the retention of Al in epidermal leaf apoplast represent the main tolerance mechanism to Al in tea plants. In addition LEXRF proved to be a powerful tool for localization of Al in plant tissues, which can help in our understanding of the processes of Al uptake, transport and tolerance in plants.     

Localization and compartmentation of Al in the leaves and roots of tea plants

Under acid soil conditions, solubility of aluminum (Al) increases leading to toxicity for plants. Al accumulator species such as tea, however, accumulate high levels of Al in tissues without toxicity symptoms. In this work, Al localization and compartmentation were studied in tea [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze] grown hydroponically at 0 or 100 µM Al for eight weeks. Plant dry matter production was significantly higher in the presence of Al and accumulated up to 1.21 and 6.18 mg Al/g DW in the leaves and roots, respectively. About 40-50% of Al was partitioned into cell wall (CW)-bound fraction without any difference among leaves of different age and roots. A significant increase of the soluble phenolics fraction by Al was observed in both leaves and roots. Conventional and confocal laser scanning microscopy images of morin-stained roots indicated a high fluorescence signal in the caps and adjacent mersitematic cells. Towards basal parts, however, Al tended to accumulate mainly in the root hairs, rhizodermal and endodermal cell layers and slightly in the cortex while it was clearly excluded from the central cylinder. A high Al-morin signal was detected from the CW compared with other parts of the cells. Relatively high green fluorescence signal was emitted from the epidermal cell layer, trichomes, vascular bundle region and stomatal cells of particularly young leaves. Our study provides evidences for involvement of both avoidance and tolerance mechanisms for Al in tea plants.

Changing Responses of Stomata to Abscisic Acid and CO2 as Leaves and Plants Age

Willmer, C. M., Wilson, A. B. and Jones, H. G. 1988. Changingresponses of stomata to abscisic acid and CO₂ as leaves andplants age.—J. exp. Bot. 39: 401–410. Stomatal conductances were measured in ageing leaves of Commelinacommunis L. as plants developed; stomatal responses to CO₂ andabscisic acid (ABA) in epidermal strips of C. communis takenfrom ageing leaves of developing plants and in epidermal stripsfrom the same-aged leaves (the first fully-expanded leaf) ofdeveloping plants were also monitored. Stomatal behaviour wascorrelated with parallel measurements of photosynthesis andleaf ABA concentrations. Stomatal conductance in intact leavesdecreased from a maximum of 0-9 cm s^{– 1} at full leaf expansionto zero about 30 d later when leaves were very senescent. Conductancesdeclined more slowly with age in unshaded leaves. Photosynthesisof leaf slices also declined with age from a maximum at fullleaf expansion until about 30 d later when no O₂ exchange wasdetectable. Exogenously applied ABA (0.1 mol m^{– 3}) didnot affect respiration or photosynthesis. In epidermal stripstaken from ageing leaves the widest stomatal apertures occurredabout 10 d after full leaf expansion (just before floweringbegan) and then decreased with age; this decrease was less dramaticin unshaded leaves. The inhibitory effects of ABA on stomatalopening in epidermal strips decreased as leaves aged and wasgreater in the presence of CO₂ than in its absence. When leaveswere almost fully-senescent stomata were still able to open.At this stage, guard cells remained healthy-looking with greenchloroplasts while mesophyll cells were senescing and theirchloroplasts were yellow. Similar data were obtained for stomatain epidermal strips taken from the same-aged leaves of ageingplants. The inhibitory effects of ABA on stomatal opening alsodecreased with plant age. In ageing leaves both free and conjugated ABA concentrationsremained low before increasing dramatically about 30 d afterfull leaf expansion when senescence was well advanced. Concentrationsof free and conjugated ABA remained similar to each other atall times. It is concluded that the restriction of stomatal movements inintact leaves as the leaves and plants age is due mainly toa fall in photosynthetic capacity of the leaves which affectsintracellular CO₂ levels rather than to an inherent inabilityof the stomata to function normally. Since stomatal aperturein epidermal strips declines with plant and leaf age and stomatabecome less responsive to ABA (while endogenous leaf ABA levelsremain fairly constant until leaf senescence) it is suggestedthat some signal, other than ABA, is transmitted from the leafor other parts of the plant to the stomata and influences theirbehaviour. Key words: Abscisic acid, CO₂, Commelina, leaf age, senescence, stomatal sensitivity     

Role of superoxide dismutase in defense against SO2 toxicity and an increase in superoxide dismutase activity with SO2 fumigation

The role of superoxide dismutase (SOD) in defense against SO₂toxicity was investigated using leaves of poplar and spinach.Young poplar leaves having five times the SOD of the old leaveswere more resistant to the toxicity of SO₂. Spraying spinachleaves with diethyldithiocarbamate caused a marked loss of SODactivity which resulted in a decrease in their resistance tothe toxic effects of SO₂. The SOD activity in poplar leaveswas increased by fumigation with 0.1 ppm SO₂, and this was moreevident in young leaves than in old ones. The increased SODactivity was inhibited by cyanide. The poplar leaves havinghigh SOD activity induced with SO₂ fumigation were more resistantto 2.0 ppm SO₂ than the control leaves. These findings suggestthat SO₂ toxicity is in part due to the superoxide radical andthat SOD participates in the defense mechanism against SO₂ toxicity. (Received February 12, 1980; )     

Distribution and chemical speciation of aluminum in the Al accumulator plant,Melastoma malabathricum L.

The Al accumulation mechanisms in an Al accumulator plant, Melastoma malabathricum L. (Melastoma), was investigated. Al was located in the upper epidermal cells and also distributed in mesophyll cells in leaf sections. In root sections, Al was found in all the root tissues, particularly in the epidermis and endodermis. Al concentrations in young leaves, mature leaves, old leaves, and roots were 8.0, 9.2, 14.4, and 10.1 mg g¹, respectively. Approximately 45% of total Al in oldest leaves, and approximately 60% of total Al in leaves of other positions and roots were extracted in Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.0). Since Al in the residual parts was mostly dissolved in hot 0.5 M H₂SO₄ containing 2% cetyl trimethylammonium bromide, residual Al seemed to consist mainly of monomeric Al and Al bound to pectic substances and hemicellulose. Al in the Tris-HCl extract consisted of non-monomeric Al (complexed form). Oxalate concentration in the Tris-HCl extract in leaves was significantly higher in the +Al treatment than in the –Al treatment and there was a positive correlation between the Al concentration and oxalate concentration. ²⁷Al NMR spectrum of fresh leaves indicated the presence in the order of monomeric Al, Al-oxalate, Al-(oxalate)₂, and Al-(oxalate)₃ in intact leaves.     

Metabolism of Caffeine and Related Purine Alkaloids in Leaves of Tea (Camellia sinensis L.)

Purine alkaloid catabolism pathways in young, mature and agedleaves of tea (Camellia sinensis L.) were investigated by incubatingleaf sections with ¹⁴C-labelled theobromine, caffeine, theophyllineand xanthine. Incorporation of label into CO₂ was determinedand methanol-soluble metabolites were analysed by high-performanceliquid chromatography-radiocounting and thin layer chro-matography.The data obtained demonstrate that theobromine is the immediateprecursor of caffeine, which accumulates in tea leaves becauseits conversion to theophylline is the rate limiting step inthe purine alkaloid catabolism pathway. The main fate of [8-¹⁴C]theophyllineincubated with mature and aged leaves, and to a lesser extentyoung leaves, is conversion to 3-methylxanthine and onto xanthinewhich is degraded to ¹⁴CO₂ via the purine catabolism pathway.However, with young leaves, sizable amounts of [8-¹⁴C]-theophyllinewere salvaged for the synthesis of caffeine via a 3-methylxanthine     

An Analysis of the Effects of Gibberellic Acid on Tomato Leaf Growth

The effects of four consecutive daily sprays of gibberellicacid (GA₃) on the growth of leaves of young tomato plants cv.Potentate were studied. Total leaf weight and area were increasedby GA₃. The percentage changes were larger in the younger leavesthan in the older but the absolute increases of the middlleleaves accounted for most of the total response. Chlorophyllcontent, both total and per unit weight, was reduced by GA inthe older leaves and increased in the younger; on an area basisit was reduced in all but the youngest leaves. Palisade cell length and palisade cell number per unit sectionlength were reduced by GA₃ in the oldest leaves and increasedin the youngest. There were larger intercellular spaces in bothmesophyll layers and a larger transectional area of the mid-ribsof the oldest and two youngest leaves in GA₃ plants. The ‘surfaceareas’ of epidermal cells were also increased by GA₃ treatment.Leaf fresh weight per unit area was only a true index of laminathickness in the two oldest leaves.     

Effects of soil resistance to root penetration on leaf expansion in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.): composition, number and size of epidermal cells in mature blades

Wheat seedlings {Triticum aestivum L.) were grown on soils withcontrasted resistances to root penetration (measured as penetrometerresistance, R_s. High R_s reduced the rates of leaf appearanceand expansion. Although the duration of expansion was increased,mature leaves were smaller. Underlying changes in leaf anatomywere investigated on cleared mature leaves, focusing on theepidermes. Three leaves were analysed: leaves 1 and 3 whichstarted their development in the embryo, and leaf 5 which wasinitiated on the seedling, after imposition of contrasted soilconditions. In all leaves, high R_s, caused a reduction in maturecell sizes, lengths and widths, and a shift in the relativeproportions of functionally different cell types, with a decreasein the relative proportions of stomata and associated cell types(interstomatal and sister cells) and an increase in the proportionsof unspecialized elongated epidermal cells and of trichomes.In leaves 3 and 5 the number of cellular files across the bladewas also reduced, while in leaf 1 it was similar at the twoR_s. These differences between leaves are attributed to differencesin their developmental stage when root stress was first perceived.Remarkably, R_s had no effect (leaf 1) or relatively small effects(leaves 3 and 5) on the total number of cells per file, suggestingthat this parameter is either largely insensitive to variationin root environment, or is programmed at the outset before stresswas perceived at the apex.

Aluminate-Induced Changes in Morphology and Ultrastructure of Thinopyrum Roots

The effects of aluminate [Al(OH)_4$$$] on the morphology andultrastructure of root cells were studied in the salt-tolerantgrasses Thinopyrum bessarabicum (Savul. and Rayss) A. Lve (2) and Thinopyrum junceum (L.) A. Lve (6) by light and transmissionelectron microscopy. Seedlings were grown in nutrient solutioncontaining 1 mol m^–3 [Al] and 5 mol m^–3 Na₂CO₃ atpH 100. Light microscopy revealed that root tips of [Al]-treated plantsdisplayed bending. Many cells of the cortex in the elongatingregion contained a fibrillar/granular material which renderedthem densely staining. Radial (anticlinal) walls of the epidermalcells were either cleft apart of unusually thickened. Amyloplastsof the central root cap cells contained fewer starch grains,while their distribution was disturbed. Electron microscopy showed that the most serious effects of[Al] toxicity occurred at the cell walls of the epidermal androot cap cells, as they lost their fibrillar fine structureand contained an amorphous electron-dense material distributedall over the wall section. Electron-opaque droplets were encounteredat the plasma membrane region of epidermal cells, while theelectron-dense material observed in the vacuoles of cortex cellscould be aluminate which had accumulated there. Thus, despitethe presence of a barrier to aluminate uptake, some [Al] doesenter the symplast. However, the cytoplasm of many epidermalcells displayed a normal fine structure and contained the usualsubcellular components. Dictyosomes, in particular, were abundantand surrounded by many vesicles denoting an active state. Theseobservations stress the role of cell walls as the major [Al]pool and of the plasma membrane as the ultimate barrier thatprotects the cytoplasm. Results are further discussed in relation to the findings inother plant species and it is concluded that, although aluminateis less toxic than Al³⁺, it causes morphological, structuraland, presumably, functional damage-to the roots of the speciesinvestigated. Key words: Thinopyrum, aluminate toxicity, cell walls, root bending     

Structure and Function of Silica Bodies in the Epidermal System of Grass Shoots

Silica (SiO₂.nH₂O) is deposited in large quantities in the shootsystems of grasses. In the leaf epidermal system, it is incorporatedinto the cell wall matrix, primarily of outer epidermal walls,and within the lumena of some types of epidermal cells. This biogenic silica can be stained specifically with methylred, crystal violet lactone, and silver amine chromate. At theultrastructural level, the silica in lumens of silica cells,bulliform cells and long epidermal cells is made up of rodsabout 2.5 µm in length and 0.4µm in width. Ultimateparticles in the rods range from 1 to 2 nm in diameter. In contrast,silica in the cell wall matrix of trichomes and outer wallsof long epidermal cells is not rod-shaped, but rather, formsroughly spherical masses. Detailed analyses are presented on the frequencies of occurrenceof the different types of epidermal cells that contain silicain the leaves of representative C₃ and C₄ grasses. The C₄ grasseshave higher frequencies of bulliform cell clusters, silica cells,and long epidermal cells, whereas the C₃ grasses have higherfrequencies of trichomes. No correlation was found in the frequencyof occurrence of silica bodies in bulliform cells for C₃ grassesas compared with C₄ grasses. Of all the grasses examined, Coix,Oryza, and Eleusine had the highest densities of such bodies,and some taxa had no silica bodies apparent in their bulliformcells. The idea that silica bodies in bulliform cells and silica cellsmight act as "windows’ and trichomes might function as‘light pipes’ to facilitate light transmission throughthe epidermal system to photosynthetic mesophyll tissue belowwas tested. The experimental data presented do not support eitherof these hypotheses. C₂ and C₄ grasses, biogenic silica, light pipes, window hypothesis, silica staining, silica ultrastructure     

茶园土壤及与茶叶中微量元素锌硒含量相关性的研究

Al Binding in the Epidermis Cell Wall Inhibits Cell Elongation of Okra Hypocotyl

Al inhibits root elongation at micromolar concentrations, butthe mechanisms leading to this process are unknown. In thesestudies, Al-induced inhibition of cell elongation was examinedusing hypocotyl of okra (Abelmoschus esculentus Moench cv. ClemsonSpineless) as an experimental model. One-h exposure to Al (0.5mM A1Cl₃) in the presence of 10 µM auxin in 0.5 mM CaCl₂,pH 4.0 significantly inhibited auxin-induced cell elongationof okra hypocotyl segments. Elongation was further suppressedwith increasing Al concentrations up to 1 mM. Treatment of thehypocotyl with 1 mM citrate for 10 minutes after 2-h exposureto Al resulted in significant recovery of elongation. The amountof Al in the cell wall relative to the total in the tissue was96.0, 96.2, and 85.4%, respectively, following 1-, 2-, and 3-hexposure to the Al solution. The total and cell wall Al contentwas decreased by half after the citrate desorption treatment.Further-more, 95% of Al was found in the epidermis, and 95%of the Al in the epidermis was associated with the cell wall.Experiments using split hypocotyl segments showed that Al exposureincreased the outward bending of hypocotyl segments, suggestingthat the epidermis elongation was specifically inhibited byAl. Al inhibited the autolysis of epidermis by about 20%, buthad little effect on the autolysis of core tissue. Taken together,these results suggest that Al binding in the epidermal cellwall inhibits critical components in cell wall loosening mechanism,resulting in inhibition of cell elongation.     

Distribution and mobility of aluminium in an Al-accumulating plant, Fagopyrum esculentum Moench

Buckwheat (Fagopyrum esculentum Moench. cv. Jianxi) accumulateshigh concentrations of Al in the leaves without showing anytoxicity. To understand the accumulation mechanism of Al inbuckwheat, the distribution and mobility of Al in buckwheatwere investigated. Relatively long-term treatment (28 d) withAl led to a decrease in Al concentration from old to young leaves,while a short-term (1 d) exposure to Al resulted in a uniformdistribution of Al in the leaves. When the fourth leaf was wrappedinside a transparent plastic bag to suppress transpiration,the Al concentration of this leaf was only one-quarter of thatin the corresponding leaf without wrappng. Within a leaf, theAl concentration at the margins was much higher than that inthe centre. These results indicate that Al distribution in theleaves is controlled by both rate and duration of transpiration.The mobility of Al between old and new leaves was studied byfirst growing plants in a solution with Al, followed by culturein a solution without Al. The Al content in the two new leavesappeared after removal of external Al was very low, whereasthat in the old leaves did not decrease but continued to increase.The increased Al content was found to be translocated from Alremaining in the roots. It is concluded that Al is not mobileonce it is accumulated in the leaf. Key words: Accumulation, aluminium, buckwheat, distribution, mobility, transpiration.     

茶叶锌、硒含量变化与种植土壤差异的研究

以贵州4个茶叶产地(贵定、都匀、凤冈、湄潭)生产的新鲜茶叶(贵定云雾茶、都匀毛尖、凤冈锌硒茶、湄潭翠芽)及种植土壤为材料,研究了不同茶树叶片及种植土壤的锌、硒含量,研究不同土壤类型及不同深度土壤锌、硒含量的差异;茶树当年生新叶(一芽二叶)和生长1年以上老叶的锌、硒含量变化;土壤锌、硒含量与新老叶片锌、硒含量之间的关系。结果显示,随着茶园土壤深度(0~20 cm,20~40 cm)的增加,锌含量增加了2.0%~18.0%,而土壤硒含量则没有明显变化;不同样地土壤和同一样地土壤不同深度的锌、硒含量差异均达显著水平(Sig.0.01),但差异未见明显规律;茶树新叶锌、硒含量比老叶分别高2.3~4.0倍和1.2~3.0倍;新叶的锌、硒含量与土壤锌、硒含量呈正相关关系,且新叶中的锌、硒含量之间也呈正相关关系。表明土壤中的锌、硒含量来源于成土母岩并直接影响茶叶的品质,因此合理选择土壤类型对种植优质茶和规划发展茶产业具有重要意义。
