Effects of Fe-EDDHA (Sequestrene 138), Fe-polyflavonoid (Rayplex), and an experimental iron lignosulfonate on dry matter yields, Fe content, and plant chlorosis of grain sorghum were studied under controlled conditions, using a normal and an Fe-deficient soil (DTPA extract). Application rates of 20, 40, and 80 ppm Fe were employed. Dry matter yields increased due to Fe applications. The lignosulfonate (Fe-LS) produced maximum dry matter yields followed by Fe-EDDHA and the polyflavonoid (Fe-PF) material. At the 80 ppm rate Fe-EDDHA and Fe-PF produced moderate and slight toxic effects, respectively. No toxic effect was noted with the Fe-LS material. Fe-EDDHA was found to be the most effective for correcting iron chlorosis, while the other two sources were similar in this respect. Except for the Fe-LS applied to the normal soil, all other treatments increased Fe content of plant shoots. In the Fe-deficient soil, Fe application lowered the Ca, Mg, Zn, and Mn concentrations in the plants. In the case of the normal soil, concentrations of these elements increased at the 20 ppm rate and underwent no further changes with higher rates. Treatments did not influence K and P concentrations of plants.Additional index words: Micronutrients, Iron compounds.  相似文献

The Fe chelate o,p-EDDHA/Fe3+, in addition to o,o-EDDHA/Fe3+, was found recently to be a component of commercial EDDHA/Fe3+ chelates. The European Regulation on fertilisers has included o,p-EDDHA as an authorized chelating agent. The efficacy of o,o-EDDHA/Fe3+, o,p-EDDHA/Fe3+ and EDTA/Fe3+ chelates as Fe sources in plant nutrition was studied. Iron-chelate reductase (FC-R) in young cucumber plants (Cucumis sativus L.) roots reduced o,p-EDDHA/Fe3+ faster than o,o-EDDHA/Fe3+, EDTA/Fe3+ and a commercial source of EDDHA/Fe3+. The o,p-EDDHA/Fe3+ chelate was also more effective than the o,o-EDDHA/Fe3+ in decreasing the severity of Fe-deficiency chlorosis in leaves of young soybean (Glycine max L.) plants grown hydroponically. The o,p-EDDHA ligand was more effective in the short-term than the EDTA and o,o-EDDHA ligands at dissolving Fe from selected Fe minerals and soils. However, the ultimate quantity of dissolve Fe was greatest with the o,o-EDDHA ligand.  相似文献

The characteristics of the Fe reduction mechanisms induced by Fe deficiency have been studied in intact plants of Beta vulgaris and in purified plasma membrane vesicles from the same plants. In Fe-deficient plants the in vivo Fe(III)-ethylenediaminetetraacetic complex [Fe(III)-EDTA] reductase activity increased over the control values 10 to 20 times when assayed at a pH of 6.0 or below ("turbo" reductase) but increased only 2 to 4 times when assayed at a pH of 6.5 or above. The Fe(III)-EDTA reductase activity of root plasma membrane preparations increased 2 and 3.5 times over the controls, irrespective of the assay pH. The Km for Fe(III)-EDTA of the in vivo ferric chelate reductase in Fe-deficient plants was approximately 510 and 240 [mu]M in the pH ranges 4.5 to 6.0 and 6.5 to 8.0, respectively. The Km for Fe(III)-EDTA of the ferric chelate reductase in intact control plants and in plasma membrane preparations isolated from Fe-deficient and control plants was approximately 200 to 240 [mu]M. Therefore, the turbo ferric chelate reductase activity of Fe-deficient plants at low pH appears to be different from the constitutive ferric chelate reductase.  相似文献

The capability of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L., cv. Serpente cinese), a Strategy I plant and barley (Hordeum vulgaris L., cv. Europa), a Strategy II plant to use Fe complexed by a water-soluble humic fraction (WEHS) extracted from a peat, was studied. Uptake of 59Fe from 59Fe-WEHS by cucumber plants was higher at pH 6.0 than at pH 7.5. Roots of intact cucumber plants were able to reduce the FeIII-WEHS complex either at pH 6.0 or 7.5, rates being higher in the assay medium buffered at pH 6.0. After supply of 59Fe-WEHS, a large pool of root extraplasmatic 59Fe was formed, which could be used to a large extent by Fe-deficient plants, particularly under acidic conditions. Uptake of 59Fe from 59Fe-WEHS by Fe-sufficient and Fe-deficient barley plants was examined during periods of high (morning) and low (evening) PS release. Uptake paralleled the diurnal rhythm of PS release. Furthermore, 59Fe uptake was strongly enhanced by addition of PS to the uptake solution in both Fe-sufficient and Fe-deficient plants. High amount of root extraplasmatic 59Fe was formed upon supply of Fe-WEHS, particularly in the evening experiment. Fe-deficient barley plants were able to utilize Fe from the root extraplasmatic pool, conceivably as a result of high rates of PS release. The results of the present work together with previous observations indicate that cucumber plants (Strategy I) utilize Fe complexed to WEHS, presumably via reduction of FeIII-WEHS by the plasma membrane-bound reductase, while barley plants (Strategy II) use an indirect mechanism involving ligand exchange between WEHS and PS.  相似文献

Summary Dicotyledonous plants respond to Fe deficiency by enhancing the capacity of their roots to reduce Fe(III) to Fe(II). It has been suggested that there are two different ferric redox systems in the roots: the standard reductase, active with ferricyanide and not inducible by Fe deficiency, and the turbo reductase, active with both ferricyanide and ferric chelates and inducible by Fe deficiency. We have used different experimental approaches to test whether or not the Fe(III)-reducing capacity of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. cv. Ashley) roots can be explained by considering the standard and the turbo reductase as the same enzyme. For this, we used both Fe-sufficient and Fe-deficient plants, which were treated with ethylene inhibitors (cobalt or silver thiosulfate; found to inhibit the turbo reductase in a previous work), a protein synthesis inhibitor (cycloheximide), or an mRNA polyadenylation inhibitor (cordycepin). At different times after application of these inhibitors, reduction of both ferricyanide and Fe(III)-EDTA were determined. In addition, we studied the effects of pH and temperature on the reduction of ferricyanide and Fe(III)-EDTA by both Fe-sufficient and Fe-deficient plants. Results suggest that there are, at least, two different ferric redox systems in the roots. Enhancement of Fe(III)-reducing capacity (turbo reductase) by Fe-deficient plants probably requires the de novo synthesis of a (or several) protein(s), which has a high turnover rate and whose expression is presumably regulated by ethylene.Abbreviations Ch-R ferric chelate reductase - CHM cycloheximide - CN-R ferricyanide reductase - EDDHA N,N-ethylene bis[2-(2-hydroxyphenyl)-glycine] - EDTA ethylenediamine-tetraacetic acid - Ferrozine 3-(2-pyridyl)-5,6-bis(4-phenylsulfonic acid)-1,2,4-triazine - HEDTA N-hydroxyethylethylene-diaminetriacetic acid - STS silver thiosulfate  相似文献

Chlorosis-susceptible fruit trees growing on calcareous soils have been observed to recover in the presence of grass cover species. However, the physiological mechanisms behind this phenomenon are only scarcely understood. An investigation was carried out to verify whether citrus plants can use 59Fe solubilized from a sparingly soluble source by the phytosiderophores (PS) released from graminaceous species. Experiments were performed in hydroponics, using two citrus rootstocks differing in their sensitivity to Fe-deficiency in the field (Poncirus trifoliata × Citrus paradisi, citrumelo “Swingle”, highly susceptible, and Citrus aurantium L., moderately tolerant). Barley (Hordeum vulgare L., cv Europa) was used as a model species for PS-releasing graminaceous plants. Fe-deficient citrus plants increased 59Fe-uptake from 59Fe-hydroxide supplied inside a dialysis tube, when Fe-deficient barley plants or PS-containing barley root exudates were present in the uptake solution, this effect being particularly evident for the susceptible rootstock. 59Fe-uptake from 59Fe-hydroxide was also enhanced in Fe-deficient citrumelo “Swingle” in the presence of Fe-deficient Poa pratensis L. and Festuca rubra L., two perennial grasses normally grown in association with fruit trees; no effect was found when Fe-sufficient grasses were employed. The uptake of 59Fe by the susceptible citrus rootstock increased in proportion to the amount of 2′-deoxymugineic acid (DMA), the major PS released by Fe-deficient F. rubra, present in the uptake solution. The beneficial effect of F. rubra or P. pratensis was evident from the leaf re-greening observed when Fe-deficient citrumelo “Swingle” plants were grown in association with the grasses in pots filled with a calcareous soil. Leaf re-greening was not observed when citrumelo “Swingle” plants and yellow stripe 3 (ys3) maize (Zea mays L.) mutant plants, unable to release PS, were co-cultivated in pots filled with calcareous soil, unless exogenous PS were added to the soil. Results indicate that graminaceous cover species can improve the Fe-nutrition of fruit trees grown on calcareous soils by enhancing Fe-availability.  相似文献

Roots of Fe-sufficient and Fe-Deficient pea (Pisum sativum L.) were studied to determine the effect of Fe-deficiency on the activity of the root-cell plasmalemma Fe2+ transport protein. Rates of Fe(III) reduction and short-term Fe2+ influx were sequentially determined in excised primary lateral roots using Fe(III)-ethylene-diaminetetraacetic acid (Fe[III]-EDTA). Since the extracellular Fe2+ for membrane transport was generated by root Fe(III) reduction, rates of Fe2+ influx for each root system were normalized on the basis of Fe(III) reducing activity. Ratios of Fe2+ influx to Fe(III) reduction (micromole Fe2+ absorbed/micromole Fe[III] reduced) revealed no enhanced Fe2+ transport capacity in roots of Fe-deficient peas (from the parental genotype, Sparkle) or the functional Fe-deficiency pea mutant, E107 (derived from Sparkle), relative to roots of Fe-sufficient Sparkle plants. Data from studies using 30 to 100 micromolar Fe(III)-EDTA indicated a linear relationship between Fe2+ influx and Fe(III) reduction (Fe2+ generation), while Fe2+ influx saturated at higher concentrations of Fe(III)-EDTA. Estimations based on current data suggest the Fe2+ transport protein may saturate in the range of 10−4.8 to 10−4 molar Fe2+. These results imply that for peas, the physiological rate limitation to Fe acquisition in most well-aerated soils would be the root system's ability to reduce soluble Fe(III)-compounds.  相似文献

The behaviour of EDDHA isomers in soils as influenced by soil properties   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
FeEDDHA products are applied to correct iron chlorosis in plants and consist of a mixture of EDDHA isomers chelated to iron. In this study such mixtures have been divided into four (groups of) isomers: racemic o,o-EDDHA, meso o,o-EDDHA, o,p-EDDHA and rest-EDDHA. The physical and chemical properties of these isomers differ and hence does their ability to deliver Fe to plants. To come to a soil-specific iron fertilization recommendation, the behaviour of the EDDHA isomers in the soil needs to be understood. This behaviour has been examined in a soil interaction experiment as a function of time, and it has been related to soil properties. The isomer fractions remaining in solution can be ranked racemic o,o-FeEDDHA > meso o,o-FeEDDHA > rest-FeEDDHA > o,p-FeEDDHA, regardless of soil properties. The o,o-EDDHA isomers largely determine the Fe concentration in solution. Although rest-EDDHA also consists of compounds that chelate Fe more strongly than meso o,o-EDDHA, the latter is on average better capable of keeping Fe in solution upon interaction with soil. The principal adsorption surface differs per EDDHA isomer. For racemic o,o-FeEDDHA it is organic matter, for meso o,o-FeEDDHA it is iron (hydr)oxide and for o,p-FeEDDHA clay minerals. Cu and Al are important competing cations. Cu forms soluble complexes with o,p-EDDHA, and Al with meso o,o-EDDHA not chelated to Fe. Al is likely to affect the effectiveness of a potential shuttle effect. The tendency of o,p-FeEDDHA and rest-FeEDDHA to be removed from solution, makes these isomers less effective as iron fertilizer in soil application, in particular on clay soils.  相似文献

Summary Different assay conditions induce changes in the ferric chelate reductase activities of leaf plasma membrane preparations from Fe-deficient and Fe-sufficient sugar beet. With an apoplasttype assay medium the ferric chelate reductase activities did not change significantly when Fe(III)-EDTA was the substrate. However, with ferric citrate as substrate, the effect depended on the citrateto-Fe ratio. When the citrate-to-Fe ratio was 20 1, the effects were practically unappreciable. However, with a lower citrate-to-Fe ratio of 5 1 the activities were significantly lower with the apoplast-type medium than with the standard assay medium. Our data also indicate that anaerobiosis during the assay facilitates the reduction of ferric malate and Fe(III)-EDTA by plasma membrane preparations. Anaerobiosis increased by approximately 50% the plasma membrane ferric chelate reductase activities when Fe(III)-EDTA was the substrate. With ferric malate anaerobiosis increased activities by 70–90% over the values obtained in aerobic conditions. However, with ferric citrate the increase in activity by anaerobiosis was not significant. We have also tested the effect of riboflavin, flavin adenine dinucleotide, and flavin mononucleotide on the plasma membrane ferric chelate reductase activities. The presence of flavins generally increased activities in plasma membrane preparations from control and Fe-deficient plants. Increases in activity were generally moderate (lower than twofold). These increases occurred with Fe(III)-EDTA and Fe(III)-citrate as substrates.Abbreviations BPDS bathophenantroline disulfonate - FC ferric chelate - FC-R ferric chelate reductase - PM plasma membrane  相似文献

Purified rabbit kidney fructose diphosphatase requires both a free cation and a metal-chelate when assayed at pH 8 or below. In the presence Mg2+ or Mn2+, effective metal chelates were Mn(II)-EDTA, Mg(II)-EDTA, and Co(III)-EDTA. With Mg2+ as the cation the affinity of the enzyme for Mn(II)-EDTA or Mg(II)-EDTA was approximately the same, and 300-fold greater than that for Co(III)-EDTA.Activation of the enzyme by the very stable Co(III)-EDTA complex, as well as failure of an ionophore antibiotic to replace EDTA as activator, exclude the possibility that the effects of EDTA are due to removal of metal inhibitors.Inhibition of fructose diphosphatase by Ca2+ was competitive with Mg2+, and noncompetitive with Mg(II)-EDTA, or Co(III)-EDTA. Conversely inhibition by Zn(II)-EDTA was competitive with Mg(II)-EDTA and noncompetitive with free Mg2+. The data suggest that the free metals bind to one site on the enzyme while the metal-EDTA chelates bind to a second site.  相似文献

Iron chlorosis is commonly corrected by the application of EDDHA chelates, whose industrial synthesis produces o,oEDDHA together with a mixture of regioisomers and other unknown by-products. HJB, an o,oEDDHA analogous, is a new chelating agent with a purer synthesis pathway than EDDHA. The HJB/Fe3+ stability constant is intermediate between the racemic and meso o,oEDDHA/Fe3+ stereoisomers. This work studied the efficacy of HJB as a Fe source in plant nutrition. No significant differences between o,oEDDHA/Fe3+, HJB/Fe3+ and HBED/Fe3+ were observed when they are used as substrates of the iron-chelate reductase of mild chlorotic cucumber plants. Chelates prepared with the stable isotope 57Fe were used in both soil and hydroponic experiments. In the hydroponic experiment, nutrient solutions with low doses of chelates were renewed weekly. Soybean plants treated with o,oEDDHA/57Fe3+ recorded the highest results in biomass, SPAD index and Fe nutrition. In the soil experiment, chelates were added once at a rate of 2.5 mg Fe per kg of a calcareous soil. Soybean plants treated with HJB/57Fe3+ recorded a higher biomass and SPAD index in young leaves than the plants treated with o,oEDDHA/57Fe3+; however, 57Fe and total Fe concentrations in leaves were lower. The results of both pot experiments are associated with a faster ability by o,oEDDHA to provide Fe to the plants and with a more continuous supply of Fe from HJB/Fe3+. HJB/57Fe3+ effectively alleviated the Fe-deficiency chlorosis of soybean with a longer lasting effect than o,oEDDHA/57Fe3+.  相似文献

Iron (Fe) deficiency chlorosis is a common and severe nutritional deficiency in plants, and nitric oxide (NO) is an important signaling molecule in regulating Fe homeostasis in plants. We studied the effect of sodium nitroprusside (SNP, an NO donor) on Fe uptake, translocation, storage, and activation in a greenhouse. The concentrations of active Fe, total Fe, and the ratio of active Fe to total Fe, the activities of key enzymes, and chlorophyll concentration were determined, and resistance to oxidative stress and mineral element distribution in peanut plants grown in Fe sufficiency and Fe deficiency (an absence of Fe and low level of Fe concentration) conditions were also investigated. The results showed that NO significantly increased the concentration of active Fe and the ratio of active Fe to total Fe in Fe-deficient plants, and increased active Fe concentration in leaves and stems of Fe-sufficient plants. NO application also increased Fe translocation from roots to the shoots and the accumulation of Fe in cell organelles and the soluble fraction in leaves, especially in the low-level Fe concentration condition, thus increased available Fe and chlorophyll concentration in leaves of Fe-deficient plants. The activities of key enzymes were regulated by NO, which effectively mitigated oxidative damages by enhancing the activities of antioxidant enzymes (SOD, POD, CAT), increasing H+-ATPase and Ca2+-ATPase activities to balance the ion (Fe, Ca, Mg and Zn) uptake and distribution in Fe-deficient plants. However, NO application had no obvious effect on these variables in Fe-sufficient plants. These results indicated that NO application can improve Fe uptake, translocation, and activation of related enzymes in Fe-deficient plants, thus mitigating the adverse effect of Fe deficiency.  相似文献

The ability of Fe-deficient cucumber plants to use iron complexed to a water-extractable humic substances fraction (WEHS), was investigated. Seven-day-old Fe-deficient plants were transferred to a nutrient solution supplemented daily for 5 days with 0.2 μM Fe as Fe-WEHS (5 μg org. C mL-1), Fe-EDTA, Fe-citrate or FeCl3. These treatments all allowed re-greening of the leaf tissue, and partial recovery of dry matter accumulation, chlorophyll and iron contents. However, the recovery was faster in plants supplied with Fe-WEHS and was already evident 48 h after Fe supply. The addition of 0.2 μM Fe to the nutrient solution caused also a partial recovery of the dry matter and iron accumulation in roots of Fe-deficient cucumber plants, particularly in those supplied with Fe-WEHS. The addition of WEHS alone (5 μg org. C mL-1, 0.04 μM Fe) to the nutrient solution slightly but significantly increased iron and chlorophyll contents in leaves of Fe-deficient plants; in these plants, dry matter accumulation in leaves and roots was comparable or even higher than that measured in plants treated with Fe-citrate or FeCl3. After addition of the different iron sources for 5 days to Fe-deficient roots, morphological modifications (proliferation of lateral roots, increase in the diameter of the sub-apical zones and amplified root-hair formation) and physiological responses (enhanced Fe(III)-chelate reductase and acidification of the nutrient solution) induced by Fe deficiency, were still evident, particularly in plants treated with the humic molecules. The presence of WEHS caused also a further acidification of the nutrient medium by Fe-deficient plants. The Fe-WEHS complex (1 μM Fe) could be reduced by intact cucumber roots, at rates of reduction higher than those measured for Fe-EDTA at equimolar iron concentration. Plasma membrane vesicles, purified by two-phase partition from root microsomes of Fe-deficient plants, were also able to reduce Fe-WEHS. Results show that Fe-deficient cucumber plants can use iron complexed to water soluble humic substances, at least in part via reduction of complexed Fe(III) by the plasma membrane Fe(III)-chelate reductase of root cells. In addition, the stimulating effect of humic substances on H+ release might be of relevance for the overall response of the plants to iron shortage.

Tomato plants (Lycopersicum esculentum Mill.) were grown for 21-days in a complete hydroponic nutrient solution including Fe3+-ethylenediamine-di(o-hydroxyphenylacetate) and subsequently switched to nutrient solution withholding Fe for 8 days to induce Fe stress. The roots of Fe-stressed plants reduced chelated Fe at rates sevenfold higher than roots of plants grown under Fe-sufficient conditions. The response in intact Fe-deficient roots was localized to root hairs, which developed on secondary roots during the period of Fe stress. Plasma membranes (PM) isolated by aqueous two-phase partitioning from tomato roots grown under Fe stress exhibited a 94% increase in rates of NADH-dependent Fe3+-citrate reduction compared to PM isolated from roots of Fe-sufficient plants. Optimal detection of the reductase activity required the presence of detergent indicating structural latency. In contrast, NADPH-dependent Fe3+-citrate reduction was not significantly different in root PM isolated from Fe-deficient versus Fe-sufficient plants and proceeded at substantially lower rates than NADH-dependent reduction. Mg2+-ATPase activity was increased 22% in PM from roots of Fe-deficient plants compared to PM isolated from roots of Fe-sufficient plants. The results localized the increase in Fe reductase activity in roots grown under Fe stress to the PM.  相似文献

The aim of this work was to clarify the role of S supply in the development of the response to Fe depletion in Strategy I plants. In S-sufficient plants, Fe-deficiency caused an increase in the Fe(III)-chelate reductase activity, 59Fe uptake rate and ethylene production at root level. This response was associated with increased expression of LeFRO1 [Fe(III)-chelate reductase] and LeIRT1 (Fe2+ transporter) genes. Instead, when S-deficient plants were transferred to a Fe-free solution, no induction of Fe(III)-chelate reductase activity and ethylene production was observed. The same held true for LeFRO1 gene expression, while the increase in 59Fe2+ uptake rate and LeIRT1 gene over-expression were limited. Sulphur deficiency caused a decrease in total sulphur and thiol content; a concomitant increase in 35SO4 2− uptake rate was observed, this behaviour being particularly evident in Fe-deficient plants. Sulphur deficiency also virtually abolished expression of the nicotianamine synthase gene (LeNAS), independently of the Fe growth conditions. Sulphur deficiency alone also caused a decrease in Fe content in tomato leaves and an increase in root ethylene production; however, these events were not associated with either increased Fe(III)-chelate reductase activity, higher rates of 59Fe uptake or over-expression of either LeFRO1 or LeIRT1 genes. Results show that S deficiency could limit the capacity of tomato plants to cope with Fe-shortage by preventing the induction of the Fe(III)-chelate reductase and limiting the activity and expression of the Fe2+ transporter. Furthermore, the results support the idea that ethylene alone cannot trigger specific Fe-deficiency physiological responses in a Strategy I plant, such as tomato.  相似文献

The mechanism of iron (Fe) uptake from the leaf apoplast into leaf mesophyll cells was studied to evaluate the putative Fe inactivation as a possible cause of Fe deficiency chlorosis. For this purpose, sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) and faba bean plants (Vicia faba L.) were precultured with varied Fe and bicarbonate (HCO 3 - ) supply in nutrient solution. After 2–3 weeks preculture, FeIII reduction and 59Fe uptake by leaf discs were measured in solutions with Fe supplied as citrate or synthetic chelates in darkness. The data clearly indicate that FeIII reduction is a prerequisite for Fe uptake into leaf cells and that the Fe nutritional status of plants does not affect either process. In addition, varied supply of Fe and HCO 3 - to the root medium during preculture had no effect on pH of the xylem sap and leaf apoplastic fluid. A varied pH of the incubation solution had no significant effect on FeIII reduction and Fe uptake by leaf discs in the physiologically relevant pH range of 5.0–6.0 as measured in the apoplastic leaf fluid. It is concluded that Fe inactivation in the leaf apoplast is not a primary cause of Fe deficiency chlorosis induced by bicarbonate.

Background and aims

Iron (Fe) deficiency chlorosis associated with high levels of soil bicarbonate is one of the main nutritional disorders observed in sensitive grapevine genotypes. The aim of the experiment was to assess both the independent and combined effects of Fe and bicarbonate nutrition in grapevine.

Methods

Plants of the Fe chlorosis tolerant 140 Ruggeri rootstock were grown with and without Fe(III)-EDTA and bicarbonate in the nutrient solution. SPAD index, plant growth, root enzyme (PEPC, MDH, CS, NADP+ ?IDH) activities, kinetic properties of root PEPC, organic acid concentrations in roots and xylem sap and xylem sap pH were determined. A factorial statistical design with two factors (Fe and BIC) and two levels of each factor was adopted: +Fe and ?Fe, and +BIC and ?BIC.

Results

This rootstock strongly reacted to Fe deficiency by activating several response mechanisms at different physiological levels. The presence of bicarbonate in the nutrient solution changed the activity of PEPC and TCA related enzymes (CS, NADP+-IDH) and the accumulation/translocation of organic acids in roots of Fe-deprived plants. Moreover, this genotype increased root biomass and root malic acid concentration in response to high bicarbonate levels in the substrate. Bicarbonate also enhanced leaf chlorophyll content.

Conclusions

Along with a clear independent effect on Fe nutrition, our data support a modulating role of bicarbonate on Fe deficiency response mechanisms at root level.  相似文献

Comparative studies on the effect of nitrogen (N) form on iron (Fe) uptake and distribution in maize (Zea mays L. cv Yellow 417) were carried out through three related experiments with different pretreatments. Experiment 1: plants were precultured in nutrient solution with 1.0×10–4 M FeEDTA for 6 d and then exposed to NO3–N or NH4–N solution with 1.0×10–4 M FeEDTA or without for 7 d. Experiment 2: plants were precultured with 59FeEDTA for 6 d and were then transferred to the solution with different N forms, and 0 and 1.0×10–4 M FeEDTA for 8 d. Experiment 3: half of roots were supplied with 59FeEDTA for 5 d and then cut off, with further culturing in treatment concentrations for 7 d. In comparison to the NH4-fed plants, young leaves of the NO3-fed plants showed severe chlorosis under Fe deficiency. Nitrate supply caused Fe accumulation in roots, while NH4–N supply resulted in a higher Fe concentration in young leaves and a lower Fe concentration in roots. HCl-extractable (active) Fe was a good indicator reflecting Fe nutrition status in maize plants. Compared with NO3-fed plants, a higher proportion of 59Fe was observed in young leaves of the Fe-deficient plants fed with NH4–N. Ammonium supply greatly improved 59Fe retranslocation from primary leaves and stem to young leaves. Under Fe deficiency, about 25% of Fe in primary leaves of the NH4-fed plants was mobilized and retranslocated to young leaves. Exogenous Fe supply decreased the efficiency of such 59Fe retranslocation. The results suggest that Fe can be remobilized from old to young tissues in maize plants but the remobilization depends on the form of N supply as well as supply of exogenous Fe.  相似文献
