Hypocotyl sections with and without the cotyledons were cutfrom bean seedlings and incubated under white light of 6000lux. The cotyledons had an inhibitory effect as well as a promotiveeffect on hypocotyl growth. The former effect was more strikingin the dwarf variety, and the latter in the tall variety. Whenthe hypocotyl units were exposed to light for shorter times(6 hr or less) or incubated under weaker light (1600 and 50lux), the inhibitory effect of the cotyledons decreased greatly,and in the tall variety the presence of cotyledons producedno inhibition, but a promotion of hypocotyl growth. GA treatmentenhanced hypocotyl growth and counteracted the growth inhibitioncaused by the cotyledons. On the whole, the GA effect was moremarked in the tall variety than in the dwarf. The elongation of bean hypocotyls may be controlled by a balancebetween the inhibitory and promotive effects of cotyledons,and the predominance of the former over the latter may be oneof the causes for expressing dwarfing.

The Roles of the Cotyledons and Auxin in the Adventitious Root Formation of Hypocotyl Cuttings of Light-Grown Cucumber Seedlings 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Adventitious root formation in encumber hypocotyl cuttings was studied. Root formation was quantitatively related to the amount of the cotyledons attached to the hypocotyl. Complete removal of the cotyledons diminished root formation entirely. Hut the removal of the apical bud had no effect. Treatment of the hypocotyl with triiodobenzoic acid resulted in the inhibition of root formation. On t he other hand, IAA promoted root formation. Promoting concentration of IAA was 1 mg/1 for the cuttings with intact cotyledons and 10 mg/1 for those with l/8th of the cotyledons. The first two or three days of treatment was most effective. The presence of auxin (IAA-like. substance) in cucumber seedlings was demonstrated by paper chromatography and the pea straight test. It is concluded that the cotyledon is necessary for root formation in cucumber hypocotyl cuttings and that auxin is at least one of the factors supplied from the cotyledons. 相似文献

The relationship between photoperiodically changed growth of leaves, cotyledons, hypocotyl, roots and flowering has been investigated inChenopodium rubrum. It was found that all the growth characteristics recorded in leaves and cotyledons,i.e. length, area, dry weight and chlorophyll content, were inhibited during three inductive photoperiods (16 h darkness, 8 h light-SD) as compared with control plants grown under continuous illumination. Similarly, the cessation of root elongation and a decrease in root dry weight were observed. On the contrary, the elongation and dry weight of hypocotyl are stimulated by SD. The degree of the effect exerted by SD on the growth of different organs depends both on actual growth stage and the number of SD photoperiods. Increased relative rate of growth of roots and cotyledons was recorded in plants transferred after SD treatment to continuous illumination. However, this rise possesses only transitional character and the relative growth rate of treated plants equals that of control ones afterwards. The above growth changes are discussed as a possible modifying factor of floral differentiation. 相似文献

Seedlings of Brassica napus were cultivated on a slowly rotating clinostat (1 rpm) or in the vertical control for 5 d. The root growth, the cotyledonary reserves and the transport of 14C-labeled sucrose from cotyledons to root system were studied in both cultural conditions. The biomass (fresh weight) of the root system was 35% higher in the horizontally clinorotated seedlings than in the controls. This increase was correlated with a greater degradation of reserve lipids and faster accumulation of sucrose in the cotyledons. The activity of isocitrate lyase, one of the two enzymes necessary to conversion of lipids into glucids, was also greater in the cotyledons of clinorotated seedlings. The labeling distribution of 14C in the cotyledons, the hypocotyl and the root system after 30, 60 and 120 min of application of 14C-labeled sucrose on the cotyledons showed higher translocation of the cotyledonary sucrose to the root system of clinorotated seedlings. In addition, we studied the effects of clinorotation on the biomass of the excised root system (of 10 d old seedlings) cultivated in a medium containing 1% sucrose. The horizontally clinorotated root system grew more than that of the controls. These results showed that the horizontal clinorotation acted on the root system growth and provoked a higher sucrose translocation from source to sink, i.e. from cotyledons to root system. 相似文献

myo-Inositol Synthesis from [1-H]Glucose in Phaseolus vulgaris L. during Early Stages of Germination
Radiolabeled d-[1-3H]glucose was fed by imbibition under sterile conditions to bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) seeds. After 72 and 96 hours of feeding, the 3H was located in uronic acid and pentose residues as well as hexose residues of cell wall polysaccharides in growing hypocotyl and root. Free myo-inositol present in cotyledons, hypocotyl, and root also contained 3H, showing that de novo synthesis of myo-inositol from [1-3H]glucose did occur during the first 72 hours of germination. More than 90% of the labeled, free myo-inositol was present in the cotyledons. The 3H percentage in trifluoroacetic acid-soluble arabinose residues of cell wall polysaccharides from 72-hour-old bean hypocotyls was only half of their mole percentage. On the other hand, 3H percentages in hexose residues were higher than their mole percentages. The results suggest that myo-inositol is synthesized from reserve sugars during the very early stages of germination, and that the newly synthesized myo-inositol, as well as that stored in cotyledons, can be used for the construction of new hypocotyl and root cell wall polysaccharides after conversion into uronic acids and pentoses via the myo-inositol oxidation pathway. 相似文献

We have examined the effects of benzyladenine (BA) on derooted watermelon ( Citrullus vulgaris Schrad., cv. Fairfax) seedlings with special attention to the cotyledons. The growth regulator was supplied either as a droplet of solution between the cotyledons (application from above) or through the hypocotyl stump (application from below). Application of BA from above stimulates several developmental parameters of cotyledons [growth, lipid breakdown, chlorophyll and carotenoid accumulation, hydroxypyruvate reductase (EC 1.1.1.81.) activity]. The stimulation is much smaller with application from below. Also the distribution of labelled BA changes according to the method of application. The bulk of the label remains in the cotyledons when BA is supplied from above and in the hypocotyl when it is supplied from below. The absolute amount of radioactivity found in the cotyledons after 24 h of treatment is approximately the same in both cases. This seems to indicate that the different effects of the two treatments depend on concentration ratios of BA (or metabolic derivates) between hypocotyl and cotyledons rather than on absolute growth regulator levels. 相似文献

Hypocotyl elongation under white fluorescent light was aboutdoubled in dwarf watermelon (Citrullus lanatus0 (Thunb.) Matsu.and Nakai) seedlings treated with 0.1 to 0.3 µg apicaland 3 x 106 to 10.3 M root applications of 6-benzyladenine(BA). BA-enhancement of growth occurred primarily during thefirst 48 h after treatment. Increased hypocotyl length in BA-treatedseedlings was attributed more to longer cells than to an increasein cell number. Early hypocotyl growth of normal seedlings wasalso significantly enhanced by BA although final hypocotyl lengthwas not substantially affected. Benzyladenine caused expansion of cotyledons and, at higherdoses, lateral expansion of hypocotyls. BA-induced increasesin fresh weight of cotyledons and hypocotyls were accompaniedby an increase in dry weight of hypocotyls at the expense ofroots which had less dry matter than untreated seedlings. 相似文献

Triadimefon [1-(4-chlorophenoxy)-3,3-dimethyl-1-(1,2,4-triazol-1-yl)-2-butanone] changes the morphology and partitioning of dry matter in cucumber ( Cucumis sativus L. cv. National Pickling) seedlings. The dry weights, potassium and cytokinin levels in the cotyledons and roots of the treated seedlings were higher, whereas the hypocotyl weights were lower than the controls. When etiolated intact seedlings or cotyledons excised from triadimefon-pretreated dark-grown seedlings were exposed to light, chlorophyll synthesis in the pretreated cotyledons was stimulated. Triadimefon does not have cytokinin-like activity in the cucumber cotyledon greening bioassay, but appears to induce the plants to produce more cytokinims, probably by stimulating root growth. Hence it is proposed that the stimulation of chlorophyll production by triadimefon in cucumber cotyledons is mediated by maintaining high levels of potassium and cytokinins in the cotyledons. 相似文献

Nitric oxide,hydrogen cyanide and ethylene are required in the control of germination and undisturbed development of young apple seedlings 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen species (RNS) are emerging as important regulators of plant development
(germination, flowering, senescence), acting as secondary messengers in cooperation with classical phytohormones. Apple seeds
are dormant, unless they undergo a 3 month long cold stratification. Deep dormancy of isolated apple embryos can also be broken
by short pre-treatment with HCN or NO with the effect associated with enhanced ethylene synthesis. Non-dormant embryos germinate
well and young seedlings grown from non-dormant embryos do not exhibit any morphological anomalies, such as asymmetric growth
and greening of cotyledons. One of the aims of this work was to investigate the correlation between RNS- mediated (HCN- and
NO-dependent) dormancy removal and ROS (H2O2 and O2−•) accumulation in the embryos. The beneficial effect of NO and HCN on germination of dormant apple embryos has been associated
with marked increases in H2O2 and O2−• concentration in the embryos at early germination stages. We also analyzed growth of young seedlings developed from embryos
pre-treatment with HCN or NO or exposed to ethylene (ethephone) and its precursor 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC).
ACC and ethephone removed all morphological anomalies of the seedlings (asymmetric growth and greening of cotyledons) but
the radicle growth was rather slight. We propose that accumulation of ROS provoked by HCN and NO pre-treatment is required
for embryo germination “sensu stricto”, while ethylene is required for post-germination seedling growth. 相似文献

Salinity reduced mung bean (Vigna radiata Wilczek) radicle and root elongation, delayed and inhibited hypocotyl elongation and mobilization of reserves from the cotyledons to the embryo axis. Fresh and dry masses and water content of the embryo axes were reduced. Under salinity, a net leakage of K to the media increased with time and increasing NaCl concentrations. Sugars present in the cotyledons of seeds were of primary importance for growth of the embryo axis upto 18 h after sowing whereas breakdown of starch by amylase contributed later, the contribution being delayed and reduced with increasing NaCl concentration. Even when amylase activity in the cotyledons was progressively reduced with increasing NaCl concentration, the increasing contents of soluble sugars in the cotyledons indicated that sugars were not limiting for mung bean seedling growth under salinity. 相似文献

Seedling development was studied in four species in which thecotyledons had different capacities for expansion and CO2-flxation. The highest growth-rates were shown by the two species in whichthe cotyledons showed the most expansion and also the greatest14CO2-fixation capacity. Cotyledons of these species becamevery leaf-like and retained a high proportion of the radiocarbonfixation products during their growth in contrast to the hypogealrunner-bean cotyledon which had a high percentage export valuealthough total fixation was low. Seedlings with leaf-like cotyledons which had the dual roleof storage and subsequent provision of photosynthetic organshad delayed leaf development with early growth concentratedin cotyledon, hypocotyl, and root whereas species with cotyledonsless well adapted for photosynthesis produced leaves at an earlierstage. Thus, the pattern of early seedling development was closelyrelated to the degree of photosynthetic adaptation shown bythe cotyledons. The evidence suggests that in the species studied, cotyledonsadapted for the dual role appear to provide a more efficientsystem for early seedling development. 相似文献

The contents of non-acidic, acidic and bound growth inhibitorsin hypocotyls and cotyledons were compared between dark- andlight-grown dwarf and tall beans by means of thin-layer chromatographyand bioassay. In the non-acidic fraction, one major inhibitoryactivity appeared on the chromatogram, but its Rf zone was differentbetween hypocotyls and cotyledons. In both the acidic and boundinhibitor fractions, one major inhibitory activity appearedat the Rf zone corresponding to ABA. The ABAIike substance whichwas the major inhibitor in the hypocotyl was more abundant inlight-gorwn than dark-grown ones, especially in the dwarf variety,but light irradiation did not cause its transport from cotyledonsto the hypocotyl. A larger amount of bound ABA-like substance,which was the major inhibitor in the cotyledon, was presentin the dwarf than the tall variety regardless of the light condition.Cotyldon-enhanced photoinhibition of hypocotyl growth couldnot be explained by the levels of the xanthoxinand ABA-likeinhibitors, or the transport of these free inhibitors from cotyledons.

Epoxide hydrolase (EC 3.3.2.3) activity was measured with [1-14C]cis-9,10-epoxystearic acid as the substrate. Homogenates were prepared from the endosperm tissue of germinating seeds of castor bean (Ricinus communis L. zanzibariensis). The activity of fatty-acid epoxide hydrolase was characterized with respect to dependence on time, amount of protein, pH and temperature. Analyses of enzyme distribution in endosperm, cotyledons, root and hypocotyl showed the highest total activity in the endosperm, less in the cotyledons and low activity in the root and hypocotyl. The specific activity was similar for cotyledons and endosperm. Analysis of the temporal expression of the enzyme in the endosperm during germination revealed high activity already in the imbibed seed. Activity was maximal between days four to six and then decreased at the end of one week. Subcellular fractionation of endosperm revealed a dual distribution of activity between the glyoxysomal and the cytosolic fractions. 相似文献

In south-eastern Australia, surface-retained wheat stubble can reduce the growth and yield of canola as a result of reductions
to the quality and quantity of light under the stubble and the associated elongation of the hypocotyl. This paper reports
a series of pot experiments that examined the effect of hypocotyl elongation on the leaf area development of canola, the allocation
of dry mass, and the absolute and relative growth rates compared to non-etiolated seedlings. The primary aim was to determine
the magnitude of the growth reductions caused by hypocotyl elongation in canola seedlings under controlled conditions. Seedling
hypocotyl elongation was induced by growing canola seedlings in narrow poly-pipe tubing of different lengths placed over the
seedlings as they began to emerge through the soil, and removing the shade cloth covering the top of the tube when the cotyledons
had reached it, to mimic the plant reaching and overtopping a stubble layer. Plants with longer hypocotyls had smaller root
systems, less leaf area and less leaf and root biomass. These plants had lower relative growth rates than plants that allocated
fewer resources to hypocotyls and more to roots and leaves. The magnitude of the growth responses observed in these experiments
was similar to those of plants with long hypocotyls growing through stubble layers in previously reported field studies. This
suggests that a significant portion of the effect of stubble observed in the field under stubble retention is due to the re-allocation
of resources to the production and growth of the hypocotyls, rather than other biochemical effects of the stubble. 相似文献

Apical applications of 0.2 μg N6-benzyladenine (BA), a synthetic cytokinin, or 5 μg of gibberellic acid (GA3) significantly enhanced hypocotyl elongation in intact dwarf watermelon seedlings over a 48-h period. Accompanying the increase in hypocotyl length was marked expansion of cotyledons in BA-treated seedlings and inhibition of root growth by both compounds. A study on dry matter partitioning indicated that both growth regulators caused a preferential accumulation of dry matter in hypocotyls at the expense of the roots; however, GA3 elicited a more rapid and greater change than did BA. In comparison to untreated seedlings, BA decreased total translocation of metabolites out of the cotyledons. Water potentials of cotyledons and hypocotyls were determined by allowing organs to equilibrate for 2 h in serial concentrations of polyethylene glycol 4000. Osmotic potentials were determined by thermocouple psychrometry. During periods of rapid growth in cotyledons and hypocotyls of BA-treated seedlings and in hypocotyls of GA-treated seedlings, the osmotic potential increased and the turgor pressure decreased in relation to untreated seedlings, indicating that cell wall extensibility was being increased. Osmotic potentials were lower in hypocotyls of GA-treated than in those of BA-treated seedlings, even though growth rates were higher in GA-treated seedlings, indicating that the latter treatment was generating more osmotically active solutes in hypocotyls. 相似文献

The growth and IAA-oxidase activity of light-grown cucumber seedlings (cv. Aonagajibae) were investigated in response to GA3 and IAA. Both GA3 and IAA induced significant elongation of the hypocotyl. The fresh and dry weights of the hypocotyl increased due to GA3 or IAA treatment, whereas no significant change was observed in the cotyledons of GA3-treated seedlings as compared with the controls. The fresh and dry weights of IAA-treated cotyledons were both lower than those of controls. Treatment with GA3 or IAA resulted in retardation of IAA-oxidase activity in the hypocotyl and cotyledons. The degree of retardation was less in the cotyledons than in the hypocotyl. An inverse relationship was recognized between GA3- or IAA-induced elongation and IAA-oxidase activity in the hypocotyl. The auxin-mediated mechanism for gibberellin action was discussed. 相似文献

Seed and developing seedlings of Populus deltoides Bartr. ex Marsh., through 2 wk old, were embedded in Paraplast or Spurr's resin and serially sectioned at 7 or 2 μm, respectively, to examine vascular development in the root-hypocotyl transition region. The procambial template is well established in the dormant embryo. Protophloem forms a continuous system connecting the root with the cotyledons but protoxylem is restricted primarily to the cotyledons. With the onset of germination there is rapid elongation of both the root and hypocotyl. The basipetal progression of protoxylem from an initiating center at the cotyledonary node is correlated with the establishment of a second initiating center in the collet at the base of the hypocotyl. The relation between procambium, initiating layer, and metacambium, and their derivatives is similar to that described for the cottonwood shoot. The primary vascular system of cottonwood should be considered a single unit, both conceptually and functionally. The vascular pattern of the root may be, in part, determined by a basipetal stimulus from the cotyledonary node. 相似文献
