The following paper deals with the character of endogenous auxins and gibberellinlike substances in the maize tassel and ear primordia during differentiation. Using bioassay the character of substances extracted from tassel primordia, internodes below the tassel, ear primordia and stem base was determined and correlated with the course of morphogenesis and differentiation. A low level of auxins and a high content of gibberellin-like substances accompanies the differentiation of terminal tassel. The differentiation of an ear is associated with an increment in auxin content while the level of gibberellin-like substances decreases. The character of growth substances in primordia remains practically unchanged in the course of further differentiation. The inhibitions appear in the plant and probably start numerous morphological reductions in the pistillate inflorescence structure or inhibit the growth of lateral primordia on the stemetc. The treatment of plants with maleic hydrazide at the beginning of tassel differentiation shifts the normal levels of endogenous regulators and brings about the transformation of tassel primordia into an ear. This transformation is accompanied by a marked rise in gibberellin-like substances, by an increment in auxins and the appearance of inhibitors.  相似文献

Naturally occurring gibberellin-like substances possessing acidic,basic, and neutral properties were detected, by paper partitionchromatography, in ethanolic extracts of tomato seed and ofetiolated seedlings after 72 and 116 hours' growth. Dwarf maizemutants of the d-1 and d-5 types, ‘Meteor’ pea seedlingsand young ‘Potentate’ tomato plants were used asbioassay material. Hydrolysis of seed and seedling proteinsby ficin in phosphate buffer, pH 6.2, after removal of ethanol-solublesubstances, liberated more and different ‘bound’gibberellin-like substances. It is suggested that protein hydrolysisduring germination is an important means of liberating thesesubstances at different stages of seedling development. Acidic substances were present in all the extracts prepared,but in general two with Rfs 0.25 and 0.55 in iso-propanol: ammonia:water : : 10:1:1 v/v were differentiated on d-2 and d-5 maizerespectively. Neutral substances in dry seed extracts chromatographedin the same solvent, had Rfs of 0.05, 0.35, and 0.95 and thesewere found only in the ethanolic (‘free’) extracts.They were active on d-1 and d-2 maize and ‘Meteor’pea. Basic gibberellin-like substances with Rfs of 0.05 and0.35 were found in ‘free’ extracts of both dry seedand etiolated seedlings after 116 hours' growth which were activeon d-2 maize only. Two others with Rfs 0.45 and 0.95 were extractedfrom seedlings after 72 hours' growth and these were activeon young ‘Potentate’ tomato plants. It is suggested that certain gibberellin-like substances, capableof reversing dwarfism in test plants, may be responsible formorphogenetic or other responses not involving stem extensionin the parent species. Changes were found in the levels of gibberellin-likesubstances but there was no evidence of changes in levels ofseed inhibitors relative to seed growth substances.  相似文献

Summary Samples of sieve-tube sap were obtained as honeydew from aphids feeding on three species of higher plants. The honeydew was extracted, chromatographed and tested in several bioassays for the presence of gibberellin-like substances. The bioassay results indicated that gibberellin-like substances were translocated in the phloem of dandelion (Taraxacum officinale), broad bean (Vicia faba) and willow (Salix viminalis). Results obtained with willow showed that the concentration of gibberellin-like substances in the sieve-tube sap is daylength dependent, high levels being present in plants maintained under long days and low levels in short day plants.  相似文献

Using an agar diffusion technique, it was found that leaves from potato plants growing under long days produced more gibberellin-like substances than did leaves from plants growing under short days. Short day plants irradiated with red light during the long dark period and harvested during the ensuing light period, contained levels of gibberellin-like substances approximating those found in long day grown plants. Red irradiation during the long dark period also resulted in an increase in gibberellin production in short day plants. Four zones of gibberellin-like activity (A, B, C, D) were separated by thin layer chromatography in extracts from potato leaves. Red light treatment reduced the levels of peak D and brought about a concomitant increase in the levels of peak A.  相似文献

The distribution of endogenous gibberellin-like substances in individual organs ofZea mays L., cv. CE 250, plants was investigated during the transition from the vegetative to the generative phase of development. The gradient of the content of gibberellin-like substances and photosynthetic activity in leaf segments was followed in different parts of the Jeaves, as well as the changes in the content of gibberellin-like substances in leaf segments during an exposure in the light and in the dark. The gradient of the content of endogenous gibberellin-liko substances in the leaves, in the stem and in the spike is interpreted in terms of possible relationship of these compounds to the regulation of sink — source.  相似文献

Experiments are described in which a standard procedure usedfor the extraction of endogenous gibberellin-like substancesfrom plants was carried out in the absence of plant materialto give ‘blank’ extracts. Acidic, basic, and neutralfractions of blank extracts all showed variable gibberellin-likeactivity on d-5 dwarf maize and lettuce hypocotyls, though oftenat a low level. Acidic fractions showed activity on d-2 dwarfmaize, but none of the fractions was active on dwarf peas oron tomato seedlings. One sample of sodium bicarbonate appearedto be contaminated by two gibberellin-like substances. Someactivity was observed in ethanol, chromatography paper, andammonium acetate, but none in methanol or redistilled ethylacetate. There were wide variations between the results of comparableexperiments. In the light of these results possible precautionsfor experiments involving extraction of endogenous gibberellin-likesubstances are discussed.  相似文献

Two gibberellin-like substances were separated chromatographicallyfrom the ethanol-extract of germinating cotyledons of Pharbitisnil. In the dark-grown seedling, these substances in the cotyledonincreased in amount gradually with the slow increase in freshweight and area of the tissue, and attained, 4 days after sowing,a maximum level of 0.03 µg gibberellin A3 equivalent pera couple of cotyledon; in the light-grown seedling, they increasedrapidly with the rapid increase in the fresh weight and area,and attained a maximum content of 0.07 µg gibberellinA3 equivalent per cotyledon on the 6th day. When the etiolatedseedling was exposed to light, the amount of the gibberellin-likesubstances in the cotyledon increased in parallel with openingof the hypccotyl hook and expansion of the cotyledon. The openingof the hook and increase of the substances occurred in red lightas well as in far-red. Relatively small amounts of the gibberellin-like substanceswere also contained in the germinating hypocotyl and root. The growth of cotyledonary disks was promoted by gibberellinA3 and the gibberellin-like substances from the expanding cotyledon. The dwarf rice seedling and dwarfs 1, 3 and 5 of maize respondedto the gibberellin-like substances, but dwarf Pharbitis didnot. (Received August 20, 1963; )  相似文献

Vegetative shoots of Arizona cypress (Cupressus arizonica Greene) were found to contain an estimated 40 to 70 μg of gibberellin-like activity per kg. Based on elution patterns of silicic acid and celite partition columns, mobilities on thin layer chromatograms and specificity of the cucumber, d-3 dwarf maize, dwarf pea, and barley half seed bioassays it was possible to determine that the tissue contained at least 5 acidic, ethyl acetate-soluble gibberellin-like substances. The major one would appear to be GA3. In addition, GA9, GA4, and/or GA7-like compounds, and 2 unidentified gibberellin-like substances are present.  相似文献

Simultaneous quantitative analyses have been made of the endogenouslevels of auxin- and gibberellin like substances, growth inhibitors,and auxin-oxidizing enzyme activity in the cold-requiring Chrysanthemummorifolium cv. Sunbeam subjected to different daylength, lightintensity and temperature regimes known to affect flowering.While little hormone or enzyme activity was found in extractsfrom unvernalized plants, a striking rise in auxin-oxidizingenzyme activity occurred rapidly after the end of cold treatment.Increased auxin activity was also recorded shortly after vernalization.At 28 °C both enzyme and auxin activity declined over aperiod of 3–4 weeks; at 20 °C this response was delayed.Gibberellin activity at 28 °C rose steeply about 2 weeksfrom vernalization and declined several weeks later; at 20 °Ca similar response was less marked. Low light intensity treatment,which may have increased endogenous auxin levels, or exogenousauxin application reduced gibberellin-like substance levelsand cause d devernalization.Phosphon D treatment also loweredgibberellin levels and prevented flowering. An extract fromvernalized plants containing gibberellin-like substances intensifiedthe flowering of partially vernalized test plants. Persistenceof high auxin activity in vernalized plants on long days wasassociated with failure to form normal flower buds. Stem elongationrates correlated in general with levels of endogenous auxin-and gibberellin-like substances. Significant amounts of an abscisin-likeinhibitor were found in extracts of flower buds. The mechanismof natural devernalization is discussed in relation to theseobservations.  相似文献

Zusammenfassung Samen der obligat lichtkeimenden Salatsorte Tenax wurden auf ihren Gibberellingehalt untersucht. Sie enthalten bei Quellung im Dunkeln nur wenig gibberellinähnliche Substanzen. Nach Belichtung mit hellrotem Licht nimmt der Gibberellingehalt innerhalb 1 Std sehr stark zu. Es wird gefolgert, daß Lichtkeimer einen zu niedrigen Gibberellingehalt besitzen, um im Dunkeln keimen zu können, und daß unter dem Einfluß des Lichtes die zur Keimungsauslösung notwendige Gibberellinmenge entsteht.
Changes in gibberellin-like substances of lettuce seeds after light exposure
Summary The contents of gibberellin-like substances in lettuce seeds were determined. In darkness the seeds contain only small amounts of gibberellin-like substances, but upon illumination with near red light there is a sharp increase in the gibberellin content within one hour. It is concluded that lettuce seeds in darkness do not contain the amounts of gibberellin necessary for germination and that under the influence of light these amounts are provided.

Third internodes or whole stems of 7-days old etiolated pea plants were extracted and the content of gibberellin-like substances and inhibitors has been determined. Extracts were found to contain four or five different gibberellin-like substances, some of which are chromatographically similar to GA3. The content of gibberellins has been high in young internodes and decreased along with the internodes elongation. Brief red light irradiation brings about quantitative changes in gibberellin content, depending also on the length of internodes. The extracts contain acidic and neutral inhibitors which interfere with the response to GA3. The content of the inhibitors does not seem to be affected by the ageing of internodes or by the light treatment.  相似文献

The action of zinc on the growth of barley and the biosynthesis of indol compounds and gibberellin-like substances was investigated in a number of concentrations of zinc from doses stimulating growth to toxic doses. The seeds were soaked before sowing in solutions of zinc sulphate (5.10?5 to 5.10?1% Zn), and the plants cultivated for 7 days in water. Lower concentrations of zinc increased both plant growth and the biosynthesis of tryptophan and auxins. At the optimum concentration of 5.10?3% Zn this increase in tryptophan amounted to 241% of the variant without zinc; in substances with an RF corresponding to indolyacetic acid, the increase determined by the biological test, was 207% as against the variant without zinc. Higher concentrations of zinc inhibited growth, the tryptophan content was decreased to below that of the control without zinc and the auxin content also fell to below the control values. Zinc also influenced the content of gibberellin-like substances in the plants. At a concentration of 5.10?3% Zn the increase in the growth activity in the gibberellic acid area of the chromatogram was 294% of the variant without zinc. At toxic concentrations of zinc, the content of gibberellin-like substances fell to below that of the controls. The finding that zinc acts simultaneously on the biosynthesis of auxins and gibberellins is also evidence for the common action of growth substances of various chemical types on plant growth.  相似文献

Gibberellin-like substances were found to be produced by fungi isolated from mycorrhizae of pine. Among the isolates studied gibberellin-like substances producers were most numerous among the Basidiomycetes forming ectotrophic mycorrhiza and among non-sporulating fungi forming no mycorrhiza. In most strains the gibberellin-like subtances were elaborated after 10--20 days of incubation. The Rf values of the gibberellin-like compounds were different in various strains, but in most of them substances showing gibberellin activity appeared on the chromatograms run with benzene, acetic acid (10:3 v/v) at Rf 0.2--0.6.  相似文献

Investigations were made on the effect of exposing barley seeds to gamma-radiation (5–40 kR), alone and in combination with the application of zinc (soaking the seeds in solutions containing 5.10?5–5.10?1% Zn for 12 hours before sowing) on growth and on the content of tryptophan, indole auxins and gibberellin-like substances in seven-day plants. Radiation decreased both growth and the content of tryptophan (e.g. by about 53% at 30 kR), of indole auxins (by about 60% auxin in the zone of IAA on the chromatogram at 30 kR), and also the content of gibberellin-like substances (by about 67% gibberellin content in the zone of GA3 on the chromatogram) of plants. The irradiation of standard samples of tryptophan, indolyl-acetic acid and gibberellic acid alone with many times greater doses (up to 1000 kR) did not lead to marked radiochemical degradation of these substances. It can be assumed that radiation damages the enzyme systems “synthesizing” natural growth substances in plants. The damaging effect of radiation on auxins is already displayed in the synthesis of tryptophan, which is inhibited. Zinc interacts with the damaging effect of radiation on growth. Optimum concentrations of zinc (5.10?3% Zn) counteract the effect of radiation, up to doses of about 12 kR, on the growth in height in 7-day plants so that it is equal to the controls. Normal content of tryptophan and auxin in the position of indolecetic acid on chromatograms can only be reached by the addition of zinc when the dose of radiation was not greater than about 8 kR, which is less than the influence exerted by zinc on the restitution of growth. On the other hand, the biosynthesis of gibberellin-like substances at the position of gibberellic acid on chromatograms can be restored by zinc to their original level to doses of up to 30 kR. The increased biosynthesis of auxins and gibberellins caused by zinc in irradiated plants is explained by the activation of the remaining and non—damaged enzyme systems carrying out this biosynthesis. The activation of the biosynthesis of growth substances by zinc will also contribute to the restitution effect of zinc on the growth of plants from irradiated seeds.  相似文献

By use of methanol extraction, two different consecutive partition procedures, repeated polyvinylpyrrolidone column chromatography, silicic acid partition column chromatography and the dwarf rice, lettuce, and barley half-seed bioassays, several gibberellin-like substances were detected in elongating shoots of Picea abies (L.) Karst. No significant differences in the content of gibberellin-like substances could be detected between juvenile and mature trees. The shoot axes were found to contain fewer gibberellin-like substances than the needles.  相似文献

Sporophores of cultivated Agaricus bisporus (Lange) Imbach,were shown to contain a gibberellin-like substance active inthe dwarf maize (d-5), -amylase and other bioassays. Ethyl-acetateextraction followed by paper, column, and thin-layer chromatographyrevealed the presence of one major active substance. Ficin hydrolysisof dried sporophore powder, after the complete removal of freesubstances, released more gibberellin-like substances, one ofwhich appeared identical to the free compound. The free substance was predominantly in the lamellae and residualpileus tissue. The major active substance released by ficinoccurred mostly in the lamellae but also in substantial equalamounts in both stipes and pilei. No activity was found in extractsof dikaryotic vegetative mycelium on malt agar. The level ofactivity in extracts from sporophores stored at – 20 °Cfell sharply after 7 d, and then remained constant over a periodof 6 weeks. The content of gibberellin-like substances in youngand old whole sporophores showed wide variation between experiments.In most cases young 2-d tissue had higher levels than old, 11-dtissue on a fresh-weight basis. Purified sporophore extractsand authentic gibberellins had no stimulating effect on growthof sporophores or of cultured vegetative mycelium. The inhibitorsof diterpene biosynthesis, CCC, and AMO-1618 induced a smallincrease in mycelial growth rate. Ethyl-acetate extraction ofhorse-straw compost prior to inoculation with Agaricus bisporusshowed the presence of gibberellin-like activity in significantamounts.  相似文献

Agar diffusion of imbibed seeds yielded significant amounts of diffusible Gibberellin-like substances. An analysis of the extractable and diffusible gibberellin-like substance, including an analysis of the remaining imbibition water of the seeds, indicated that a significant part of these gibberellin-like substances could be attributed to a net biosynthesis of these substances in the imbibing seeds. At the same time it was found that water diffusion yielded considerably more gibberellin-like activities than comparable agar diffusions i.e. 10 to 12 fold in general.Agar as well as water diffusion showed a temperature effect with regard to the yield of gibberellin-like substances particularly during the first 6 h of diffusion. The yield of these substances is lower at 10°C, and remains lower as shown with consecutive diffusions, in comparison with the yields at 20°C or 30°C.With both agar and water diffusion the sum of activities obtained with consecutive diffusions is always higher, often considerably higher, than equal periods of continuous diffusion which is probably due to inactivation and/or interference of inhibitory substances with the bioassay responses. Finally, water diffusates of both seeds and seedlings of the normal growing cv. Violet of Japanese morning glory contained considerably more gibberellin-like activities than those of the dwarf cv. Kidachi which indicated that normals synthesize more gibberellins than dwarfs.  相似文献

Summary Treatment of young, fully expanded leaves of Solanum andigena with synthetic abscisic acid resulted in marked increases in gibberellin-like substances. Abscisic acid treatment caused increases in the gibberellin content of leaves excised from both short day and long day grown plants.  相似文献

The occurrence of 2 gibberellin-like substances was demonstrated in the developing banana fruit, Musa sapientum, Linn. Chemical and biological evidence led to the tentative identification of the 2 compounds as GA7 and GAx (previously isolated from citrus fruits). Support for such identification was obtained from thin layer chromatography, gradient elution column chromatography, spectrofluorometry, the dwarf maize test, and the cucumber hypocotyl test. Significance of the GAx -designated compound increased since it is believed to occur in the fungus Fusarium moniliforme, Sheld. in addition to 2 different species of higher plants. It does not resemble any of the known gibberellins as far as chromatography is concerned.  相似文献

Two gibberellin-like substances were found in the acidic fractionof shoot extracts of the tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.,cultivar Potentate). These were resolved by paper chromotographywith iso-propanol/ammonia/water (10:1:1) as the developing solventbut not with n-butanol/1.5 N ammonia (3:1). Both substanceswere active in the dwarf maize bioassay on mutants d-1, d-2,d-3, and d-5, and appeared to be more active on d-5 than d-1.Neither was active in the Meteor Pea assay. Neutral and basicfractions were inactive. The relative amounts of these two substances varied accordingto the age of the tissues from which they were extracted andthis feature is discussed in relation to future studies on thephysiology of gibberellin-like substances in vivo.  相似文献
