The effect of the plant growth retardants ancymidol. mefluidide and uniconazole on germination of two melon accessions differing in their ability to germinate at 14°C was examined. The accessions were the cold sensitive Noy Yizre'el and the cold tolerant Persia 202. The three growth retardants were able to delay the germination of intact Noy Yizre'el seeds, but did not affect that of intact Persia 202 seeds. On the other hand germination of decoated seeds of both accessions was unaffected by these inhibitors at normal oxygen concentration, but was inhibited at 5% oxygen. When gibberellin-like activity was measured by a dwarf rice biological assay following HPLC fractionation, it was found that seeds of Persia 202 contained much more gibberellin-like activity than Noy Yizre'el seeds. Among the extracted compounds several endogenous gibberellins were identified by combined gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). They included GA4 , GA20 , GA1 and GA3 in Noy Yizre'el and GA34 , GA20 , GA1 and GA8 in Persia 202. It is suggested that the better germination of intact Persia 202 seeds, compared to Noy Yizre'el seeds at low temperature and low oxygen concentration, is due to a higher endogenous level of GA and a better seed coat permeability to oxygen. 相似文献

A simple procedure for the isolation of galactinol from leaves of Cucumimis sativus L. has been developed. The procedure yielded approx. 60% of the galactinol originally present in leaves with an apparent purity of 97%. Gas chromatographic and mass spectral analysis indicated that the compound was identical to galactinol isolated from sugar beet. The cucumber leaf galactinol was found to be suitable as a substrate for a galactosyl transferase enzyme which catalyses the formation of stachyose. 相似文献

Two heme peroxidases of 35.2 and 36.5 kDa have been isolated from cucumber (Cucumis sativus) peelings and characterized through electronic and 1H NMR spectra in the pH range 3.5-10.5. Their spectroscopic and catalytic properties, which are closely similar, are characteristic of highly homologous isoenzymes. Both proteins, as isolated, exist as a mixture of two ferric forms containing a high-spin and a low-spin heme in an approximately 2:1 molar ratio. The latter form likely contains a hydroxide ion axially coordinated to the heme iron and is proposed to be the result of partial irreversible protein inactivation due to the purification procedure. Both proteins in the reduced form are fully high-spin. The high-spin ferric form is sensitive to two acid-base equilibria with apparent pKa values of approximately 5 and 8.5, which have been assigned to the distal histidine and the arginine adjacent to it, respectively. These equilibria also affect the catalytic activity and the interaction with inorganic anions such as azide and fluoride. The reactivity of both proteins is closely similar to that of other plant peroxidases, primarily horseradish peroxidase; however, they also show spectroscopic properties similar to those of cytosolic ascorbate peroxidase. Therefore, overall, these two species show molecular, spectroscopic and catalytic features which are rather peculiar among plant peroxidases. 相似文献

Comparative mapping of ZYMV resistances in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) and melon (Cucumis melo L.)
Park Y Katzir N Brotman Y King J Bertrand F Havey M 《TAG. Theoretical and applied genetics. Theoretische und angewandte Genetik》2004,109(4):707-712
Zucchini yellow mosaic virus (ZYMV) routinely causes significant losses in cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) and melon (Cucumis melo L.). ZYMV resistances from the cucumber population TMG1 and the melon plant introduction (PI) 414723 show different modes of inheritance and their genetic relationships are unknown. We used molecular markers tightly linked to ZYMV resistances from cucumber and melon for comparative mapping. A 5-kb genomic region (YCZ-5) cosegregating with the zym locus of cucumber was cloned and sequenced to reveal single nucleotide polymorphisms and indels distinguishing alleles from ZYMV-resistant (TMG1) and susceptible (Straight 8) cucumbers. A low-copy region of the YCZ-5 clone was hybridized to bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clones of melon and a 180-kb contig assembled. One end of this melon contig was mapped in cucumber and cosegregated with ZYMV resistance, demonstrating that physically linked regions in melon show genetic linkage in cucumber. However the YCZ-5 region segregated independently of ZYMV resistance loci in two melon families. These results establish that these sources of ZYMV resistances from cucumber TMG1 and melon PI414723 are likely non-syntenic. 相似文献

In a continuing study of the biosynthetic pathway and regulatory mechanisms governing indole-3-acetic acid (auxin) formation, we report the isolation and initial characterization of three distinct indole-3-acetaldehyde reductases from cucumber seedlings. These enzymes catalyze the reduction of indole-3-acetaldehyde to indole-3-ethanol with the concomitant oxidation of NAD(P)H to NAD(P)+. Two of the reductases are specific for NADPH as second substrate, while the third is specific for NADH. The enzymes show a strong specificity for indoleacetaldehyde, with apparent Km values of 73mum, 130mum, and 400mum being calculated for the two NADPH-specific reductases and the NADH-specific reductase, respectively. Under no conditions of substrate concentration, incubation time, or assay method could the reverse reaction be observed. Chromatography on a calibrated Sephadex gel column led to estimated molecualr weights of 52,000 and 17,000 for the NADPH-specific reductases, while a value of 33,000 was obtained for the NADH-specific reductase. Both NADPH-specific reductases showed a pH optimum of 5.2 with a secondary optimum at 7.0, and both enzymes were activated by increasing ionic strength. The NADH-specific reductase showed a pH optimum of 7.0 with a secondary optimum at 6.1 and was slightly inhibited by increasing ionic strength. 相似文献

Summary Proteins in sieve tube exudate from Cucumis melo L., Cucumis sativus L. and Cucurbita maxima Duch. were analysed by gel electrophoresis and isoelectric focusing. Estimated molecular weights and isoelectric points for the major and minor proteins from each plant species are presented. Electrophoresis revealed striking differences between the protein complements of exudatc from the two genera investigated. Similarly, although a few exudate proteins from the two species of Cucumis possessed identical molecular weights, several major proteins were peculiar to each species. Isoelectric focusing of proteins in exudate samples from the three plants confirmed the marked differences in their protein complements. Furthermore, focusing also revealed differences between cultivars of Cucumis sativus. Both Cucumis sativus and Cucurbita maxima possessed relatively large amounts of basic proteins; these were absent in exudate from Cucumis melo. The implications of these results are discussed in relation to present concepts regarding the interrelationships and possible functional roles of P-proteins.Abbreviations DTT

The differentiation of chloroplasts to chromoplasts in corollas of cucumber (Cucumis sativus) is subject to developmental control. To study factors involved in the chloroplast-chromoplast conversion, a chromoplast-specific protein of 35 kD was isolated, and polyclonal antibodies were prepared against it. This protein was found to be a principal component of the carotenoid-protein complex resolved from chromoplast membranes by nondenaturing gel electrophoresis. Immunological studies revealed that expression of this protein is regulated in a temporal and tissue-specific manner. Its steady-state level increased in parallel with flower development and carotenoid accumulation, peaking in mature flowers and then rapidly decreasing to very low levels. The protein was not detectable in cucumber leaves or fruits. To ascertain whether an organ-specific system regulates the chloroplast-chromoplast conversion and to enable future molecular studies of factors involved in this regulation, an in vitro bud culture system was established. Patterns of expression of the 35-kD protein and carotenoids in corollas of detached buds were similar to those in intact buds. 相似文献

Regeneration in six inbred lines or F1 hybrids of Cucumis sativus was achieved on Murashige & Skoog's medium containing various concentrations of 2,4-D/BA, NAA/BA, NAA/Z or NAA/K. The range of regeneration frequency for cotyledon, leaf and petiole explants was 0–38, 0–75 and 14–96%, respectively, after 6–8 weeks in culture. Only one subculture of calli to growth regulator-free medium was required for regeneration. Preincubation of explants in the dark for 2–3 weeks was essential to achieve optimal regeneration. Highest frequency of plantlet formation occurred with petiole explants incubated on NAA/BA (5.0/2.5 M), NAA/Z (5.0/5.0 M) or 2,4-D/BA (5.0/5.0 M). Approximately 80% of these plantlets survived after transplanting to greenhouse soil, and they flowered and set fruit. The F1 hybrid, Endeavor, gave the highest regeneration frequency of 91% on 2,4-D/BA at 5.0/5.0 M. Formation of somatic embryos was observed on 2,4-D/BA, while organogenesis and embryogenesis both were evident on NAA/BA and NAA/Z. Cotyledonary explants yielded the lowest frequency (ca. 7%) of plantlet formation in this study. Plantlets of C. sativus var. hardwickii and an F1 hybrid of C. sativus x C. s. var hardwickii were regenerated on NAA/Z and NAA/K at frequencies of 15–65%, predominantly by the formation of somatic embryos. Shoots were obtained from cotyledon and leaf explants of C. metuliferus on IAA/BA (7.5/5.0 M) and from leaf and petiole explants of C. melo on NAA/BA (5.0/2.5 M), but plantlets were recovered only in C. melo.Abbreviations BA

Cucumber (Cucumis sativus) is a widely grown cucurbitaceous vegetable that exhibits a relatively high capacity for silicon (Si) accumulation, but the molecular mechanism for silicon uptake remains to be clarified. Here we isolated and characterized CsLsi1, a gene encoding a silicon transporter in cucumber (cv. Mch‐4). CsLsi1 shares 55.70 and 90.63% homology with the Lsi1s of a monocot and dicot, rice (Oryza sativa) and pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata), respectively. CsLsi1 was predominantly expressed in the roots, and application of exogenous silicon suppressed its expression. Transient expression in cucumber protoplasts showed that CsLsi1 was localized in the plasma membrane. Heterologous expression in Xenopus laevis oocytes showed that CsLsi1 evidenced influx transport activity for silicon but not urea or glycerol. Expression of cucumber CsLsi1‐mGFP under its own promoter showed that CsLsi1 was localized at the distal side of the endodermis and the cortical cells in the root tips as well as in the root hairs near the root tips. Heterologous expression of CsLsi1 in a rice mutant defective in silicon uptake and the over‐expression of this gene in cucumber further confirmed the role of CsLsi1 in silicon uptake. Our results suggest that CsLsi1 is a silicon influx transporter in cucumber. The cellular localization of CsLsi1 in cucumber roots is different from that in other plants, implying the possible effect of transporter localization on silicon uptake capability. 相似文献

Acylated flavone C-glycosides from Cucumis sativus 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Leaves of Cucumis sativus plants treated with silicon and infected with Sphaerotheca fuliginea yielded five new acylated flavone C-glycosides identified as isovitexin 2"-O-(6"'-(E)-p-coumaroyl)glucoside (6), isovitexin 2"-O-(6"'-(E)-p-coumaroyl)glucoside-4'-O-glucoside (7), isovitexin 2"-O-(6"'-(E)-feruloyl)glucoside-4'-O-glucoside (11), isoscoparin 2"-O-(6"'-(E)-p-coumaroyl)glucoside (9), and isoscoparin 2"-O-(6"'-(E)-feruloyl)glucoside-4'-O-glucoside (12). The known flavone-glycosides isovitexin (1), saponarin (2), saponarin 4'-O-glucoside (3), vicenin-2 (4), apigenin 7-O-(6"-O-p-coumaroylglucoside) (5), isovitexin 2"-O-(6"'-(E)-feruloyl)glucoside (8) and isoscoparin 2"-O-(6"'-(E)-feruloyl)glucoside (10), were also identified in this plant material. 相似文献

Endogenous gibberellins (GAs) in the shoots of normal- (cv. Yomaki, YO) and bush-type (cv. Spacemaster, SP) cultivars of cucumber
(Cucumis sativus L.) grown under natural conditions were analyzed. From both YO and SP grown for 40 days, after sowing, a series of C-13-H
GAs including GA4, GA9, GA15, GA24, GA25, GA34, and GA51 were identified by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS; full scan). In addition to the above GAs, GA12 and GA70 were similarly identified from both YO and SP grown for 61 days after sowing. The endogenous levels of GA4 and GA9, which are highly active in promoting cucumber hypocotyl elongation, were quantified by GC-selected ion monitoring (GC-SIM)
using [2H2]GA4 and [2H4]GA9 as internal standards. No remarkable difference in terms of endogenous levels of GA4/9 was observed between YO and SP in both growth stages (40 and 61 days after sowing). 相似文献

Thaumatin-like proteins (TLPs), which belong to pathogenesis-related (PR) protein family 5 (PR5), are involved in plant host defense and various developmental processes. The functions of the TLP family have been extensively discussed in multiple organisms, whereas the detailed information of this family in melon has not been reported yet. In this study, we identified 28 TLP genes in the melon genome and a N-terminal signal peptide was found highly conserved within each member of this family. Phylogeny analysis indicated that TLPs from melon and other plant species were clustered into ten groups. Twelve segmental and seven tandem duplication gene pairs that underwent purifying selection were identified. TLP genes expressed differentially in different tissues/organs, and were significantly induced after Podosphaera xanthii infection. TLPs in breeding line MR-1 tend to express early after pathogen infection compared with cultivar Top Mark. Our study provides a comprehensive understanding of the melon TLP family and demonstrates their potential roles in disease resistance, therefore provides more reference for further research. 相似文献
