We investigated the role of auxin on stem elongation in pea (Pisum sativum L.) grown for 10d in continuous darkness or under low-irradiance blue, red, far red and white light. The third internode of treated seedlings was peeled and the tissues (epidermis and cortex+central cylinder) were separately analyzed for the concentration of free and conjugated indole-3-acetic acid (IAA). Under red, far red and white light internode elongation was linearly related with the free IAA content of all internode tissues, suggesting that phytochrome-dependent inhibition of stem growth may be mediated by a decrease of free IAA levels in pea seedlings. The correlation between IAA and internode elongation, however, did not hold for blue light-grown seedlings. The hypothesis that the growth response under low-irradiance blue light might be correlated with the lack of phytochrome B signalling and changes in gibberellin metabolism is discussed in view of current knowledge on hormonal control of stem growth. 相似文献

During seedling establishment, blue and red light suppress hypocotyl growth through the cryptochrome 1 (cry1) and phytochrome B (phyB) photosensory pathways, respectively. How these photosensory pathways integrate with growth control mechanisms to achieve the appropriate degree of stem elongation was investigated by combining cry1 and phyB photoreceptor mutations with genetic manipulations of a multidrug resistance‐like membrane protein known as ABCB19 that influenced auxin distribution within the plant, as evidenced by a combination of reporter gene assays and direct auxin measurements. Auxin signaling and ABCB19 protein levels, hypocotyl growth rates, and apical hook opening were measured in mutant and wild‐type seedlings exposed to a range of red and blue light conditions. Ectopic/overexpression of ABCB19 (B19OE) greatly increased auxin in the hypocotyl, which reduced the sensitivity of hypocotyl growth specifically to blue light in long‐term assays and red light in high‐resolution, short‐term assays. Loss of ABCB19 partially suppressed the cry1 hypocotyl growth phenotype in blue light. Hypocotyl growth of B19OE seedlings in red light was very similar to phyB mutants. Altered auxin distribution in B19OE seedlings also affected the opening of the apical hook. The cry1 and phyB photoreceptor mutations both increased ABCB19 protein levels at the plasma membrane, as measured by confocal microscopy. The B19OE plant proved to be a useful tool for determining aspects of the mechanism by which light, acting through cry1 or phyB, influences the auxin transport process to control hypocotyl growth during de‐etiolation. 相似文献

The effects of blue light and calcium on elongation of hypocotyl segments of Cucumber (Cucumis sativa L. cv Burpee's Pickler) were studied. Cucumber seedlings grown in dim red light showed a rapid decline in the rate of hypocotyl elongation when irradiated with high intensity (100 micromoles per square meter per second) blue light. In intact, 4-day-old seedlings the inhibition began within 2 minutes after the onset of blue-light irradiation and reached a maximum of approximately 55% within 4 minutes. Hypocotyl segments cut from 4-day-old seedlings also showed an inhibition of elongation in response to blue light when segments were floated on aqueous buffer and exposed to blue light for 3 hours. In the presence of 2 micromolar indole-3-acetic acid, blue light caused a 50% inhibition of elongation. Buffering free calcium in the incubation medium with 0.1 millimolar ethylene glycol bis(-aminoethyl ether)- N,N,N′,N′-tetraacetic acid eliminated the blue-light inhibition of segment elongation. Several experiments confirmed a specific requirement for calcium for the blue-light-induced inhibition of segment elongation. Treating segments with 0.2 micromolar fusicoccin abolished the inhibition of elongation by blue light as did buffering the medium at pH 4. Adding 1 millimolar ascorbate to incubation medium also eliminated the inhibition of segment elongation caused by blue light. Several compounds implicated in cell-wall redox reactions alter the magnitude of the blue-light-induced inhibition. The activity of peroxidase isolated from the cell-wall free space of cucumber hypocotyls was inhibited by ascorbate and low pH. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that blue light inhibits elongation by inducing an increase in cell-wall peroxidase activity and implicate calcium ions in the response to blue light. 相似文献

During the transition from darkness to light, the rate of hypocotyl elongation is determined from the integration of light signals sensed through the phototropin, cryptochrome, and phytochrome signaling pathways. In all light conditions studied, from UV to far-red, early hypocotyl growth is rapidly and robustly suppressed within minutes of illumination in a manner dependent upon light quality and quantity. In this study, it is shown that green light (GL) irradiation leads to a rapid increase in the growth rate of etiolated Arabidopsis seedlings. GL-mediated growth promotion was detected in response to constant irradiation or a short, single pulse of light with a similar time course. The response has a threshold between 10(-1) and 10(0) micromol m(-2), is saturated before 10(2) micromol m(-2) and obeys reciprocity. Genetic analyses indicate that the cryptochrome or phototropin photoreceptors do not participate in the response. The major phytochrome receptors influence the normal amplitude and timing of the GL response, yet the GL response is normal in seedlings grown for hours under constant dim-red light. Therefore, phytochrome activation enhances, but is not required for, the GL response. Seedlings grown under green, red, and blue light together are longer than those grown under red and blue alone. These data indicate that a novel GL-activated light sensor promotes early stem elongation that antagonizes growth inhibition. 相似文献

Growth responses of marigold and salvia bedding plants as affected by monochromic or mixture radiation provided by a Light-Emitting Diode (LED) 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7

The effects of light generated by monochromic blue, red or mixed radiation from a fluorescent lamp (FL) with light emitting diodes (LEDs) (blue, red, or far-red) on growth and morphogenesis of marigold and salvia seedlings were investigated and the responses compared with those of plantlets grown under a broad spectrum conventional fluorescent lamp (a 16 h photoperiod per day). Dry weight of marigold seedlings was significantly increased in monochromic red light (R), fluorescent light plus red LED (FLR) or fluorescent light (FL) but reduced when monochromic blue light (B) was used, whereas in salvia dry weight was significantly greater under fluorescent light plus blue LED (FLB), fluorescent light plus red LED (FLR) and fluorescent light plus far-red LED (FLFr) as compared to other treatments. Stem length in marigold was greatest in monochromic blue light, being three times greater than in FLR or FL treatments. In salvia, FLFr increased stem length but this was significantly decreased by R as compared to other treatments. The number of visible flower buds in marigold was much higher in FLR as well as in the control (FL), and it was about five times greater than in B or R. However, the number of open flowers in salvia varied slightly in all the treatments. Different light qualities also influenced the duration of the blooming period in both the species. No flower buds were formed when monochromic B or R was used in salvia and FLFr inhibited flower bud formation in marigold. In comparison with monochromic blue or red light, the number of stomata was greater in mixed radiation of FL with LEDs in both the plants. Our study demonstrates the effectiveness of a LED system for plantlet growth and morphogenesis in space-based plant research chambers. 相似文献

Oak Seedlings Grown in Different Light Qualities 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Seedlings of oak (Quercus robur) were germinated in darkness for 3 weeks and then given continuous light or short pulses of light (5–8 min every day). The morphological development was followed during 25 days. In continuous white, blue, and red light the stem growth terminated after about 10 days by formation of a resting bud. At that time the seedlings were about 100 mm high. In con tinuous long wavelength farred light (wavelength longer than 700 nm) the stem growth including leaf formation was continuous without the formation of resting buds, and the stem length was about 270 mm after 25 days. The number of nodes developed became twice that of the seedlings grown in while light. The leaves became well developed in all light colours, but leaf areas were largest in plants cultivated in white light. Compared to dark grown seedlings the mean area per leaf was increased about five times in continuous long wavelength far red light. A supplement with short (5 min) pulses of red light each day increased the leaf area up to 20 times. The stem elongation showed a high energy reaction response, i.e. the stem length increased only in continuous long wavelength far-red light but was not influenced by short pulses of red light or far-red light. The leaf expansion, however, was increased by short pulses of red light with a partial reversion of the effect by a subsequent pulse of far-red light. The fraction of the plant covered with periderm was higher in plants given continuous light. In respect to periderm inhibition continuous long wavelength far red light was the most effective. The transfer of seedlings from darkness to continuous white light gave anthocyanin formation in the stem 10–20 mm below the apex. This formation took place in the cortex and was evident in plants grown in darkness or under short pulses of light. Plants grown in continuous red, blue or long wavelength Far red light showed only traces of anthocyanin. 相似文献

Many auxin responses are dependent on redistribution and/or polar transport of indoleacetic acid. Polar transport of auxin can be inhibited through the application of phytotropins such as 1-naphthylphthalamic acid (NPA). When Arabidopsis thaliana seedlings were grown in the light on medium containing 1.0 μm NPA, hypocotyl and root elongation and gravitropism were strongly inhibited. When grown in darkness, however, NPA disrupted the gravity response but did not affect elongation. The extent of inhibition of hypocotyl elongation by NPA increased in a fluence-rate-dependent manner to a maximum of about 75% inhibition at 50 μmol m−2 s−1 of white light. Plants grown under continuous blue or far-red light showed NPA-induced hypocotyl inhibition similar to that of white-light-grown plants. Plants grown under continuous red light showed less NPA-induced inhibition. Analysis of photoreceptor mutants indicates the involvement of phytochrome and cryptochrome in mediating this NPA response. Hypocotyls of some auxin-resistant mutants had decreased sensitivity to NPA in the light, but etiolated seedlings of these mutants were similar in length to the wild type. These results indicate that light has a significant effect on NPA-induced inhibition in Arabidopsis, and suggest that auxin has a more important role in elongation responses in light-grown than in dark-grown seedlings. 相似文献

不同光质对桑树幼苗生长和光合特性的影响 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
光质可影响植物光合特性、形态以及生理过程。本试验研究了不同光质(白光W、红光R、红蓝混合光RB、蓝光B)对桑树植株生长、形态和光合作用的影响。结果表明:与白光对照相比,红光、蓝光和红蓝混合光处理下植株的生长、干物质积累受到抑制;红光处理下植株的株高、叶面积显著高于白光、红蓝混合光、蓝光处理;而白光、红蓝混合光、蓝光处理下植株的LMA、叶绿素a/b比值、可溶性蛋白含量、蔗糖、淀粉含量和叶片总N含量显著高于红光处理;红蓝混合光处理下植株的Pn、Gs、ΦPSⅡ与白光处理相近,红光、蓝光处理下植株的Pn、ΦPSⅡ低于白光、红蓝混合光处理,同时红光、红蓝混合光、蓝光处理下植株的抗氧化酶活性高于白光处理,而MDA含量低于白光处理;红光处理下植株的叶片厚度、栅栏组织和海绵组织厚度显著小于白光处理。因此,一定比例的红蓝混合光可以使桑树植株的生长、光合特性、生理特征和叶片解剖结构与白光下生长植株相近,并减少单质红光、单质蓝光对植株生长发育的不利影响。 相似文献

Stem elongation in Fuchsia × hybrida was influenced by cultivation at different day and night temperatures or in different light qualities. Internode elongation
of plants grown at a day (25°C) to night (15°C) temperature difference (DIF+10) in white light was almost twofold that of
plants grown at the opposite temperature regime (DIF−10). Orange light resulted in a threefold stimulation of internode elongation
compared with white light DIF−10. Surprisingly, internode elongation in orange light was similar for plants grown at DIF−10
and DIF+10. Flower development was accelerated at DIF−10 compared with DIF+10 in both white and orange light. To examine whether
the effects of DIF and light quality on shoot elongation were related to changes in gibberellin metabolism or plant sensitivity
to gibberellins (GAs), the stem elongation responses of paclobutrazol-treated plants to applied gibberellins were determined.
In the absence of applied gibberellins paclobutrazol (>0.32 μmol plant−1) strongly retarded shoot elongation. This inhibition was nullified by the application of about 10–32 nmol of GA1, GA4, GA9, GA15, GA19, GA20, GA24, or GA44. The results are discussed in relation to possible effects of DIF and light quality on endogenous gibberellin levels and
gibberellin sensitivity of fuchsia and their effects on stem elongation.

Plant growth in dense vegetation can be strongly affected by competition for light between neighbours. These neighbours can not only be detected through phytochrome-mediated perception of a reduced red:far-red ratio, but also through altered blue light fluence rates. A reduction in blue light (low blue) induces a set of phenotypic traits, such as shoot elongation, to consolidate light capture; these are called shade avoidance responses. Here we show that both auxin and brassinosteroids (BR) play an important role in the regulation of enhanced hypocotyl elongation of Arabidopsis seedlings in response to blue light depletion. Only when both hormones are experimentally blocked simultaneously, using mutants and chemical inhibitors, will the response be fully inhibited. Upon exposure to low blue several members of the cell wall modifying XYLOGLUCAN ENDOTRANSGLUCOSYLASE/HYDROLASE (XTH) protein family are regulated as well. Interestingly, auxin and BR each regulate a subset of these XTHs, by which they could regulate cell elongation. We hypothesize that auxin and BR regulate specific XTH genes in a non-redundant and non-synergistic manner during low-blue-induced shade avoidance responses of Arabidopsis seedlings, which explains why both hormones are required for an intact low-blue response. 相似文献

The elongation of hypocotyls excised from de-etiolated seedlings of beans (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. British Wax) is inhibited by light, blue and red irradiations being equally effective. Conditions which decrease chlorophyll fluorescence, such as CO2-free air, abolish the inhibitory effect of blue irradiation and enhance the inhibition by red light. Conversely, conditions which increase chlorophyll fluorescence, such as a N2 atmosphere or irradiation through a chlorophyll filter, abolish the inhibitory effect of red light and enhance the inhibition by blue irradiation. The inhibitory effect of blue light is reversible by red irradiation under increased fluorescence as well as by far red. We propose that the chlorophyll fluorescence excited by blue and red irradiations in λF > 660 nm and λF > 720 nm, respectively, is responsible for the inhibitory effect of blue light and the reduction of the inhibitory effect of non fluorescing red light. Both red and blue wavelengths seem, therefore, to control hypocotyl elongation through phytochrome. 相似文献

There appears to be an orderly transition from one photosensitive state to another in light-controlled stem elongation in the garden pea, Pisum sativum L. cv. Alaska. Stem elongation in dark-grown plants is known to be phytochrome-controlled. However, seedlings are insensitive to phytochrome after a red light pretreatment. An action spectrum for inhibition in these seedlings has peaks at 440 and 620 nm. Protochlorophyll is suggested as the photoreceptor. If these red pretreated seedlings are further exposed to white light, sensitivity to 440 to 620 nm light is lost. Promotion by blue-green light is the only photoresponse shown by these seedlings. Inhibition of completely white light-grown seedlings required simultaneous exposure to high intensity blue light and 600 nm light. 相似文献

Growth and morphological responses to different UV wavebands in cucumber (Cucumis sativum) and other dicotyledonous seedlings 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2

We examined the influence of short-term exposure of different UV wavebands on the fine-scale kinetics of hypocotyl growth of dim red light-grown cucumbers (Cucumis sativus L.) and other selected dicotyledonous seedlings to evaluate: (1) whether responses induced by UV-B radiation (280-320 nm) are qualitatively different from those induced by UV-A (320-400 nm) radiation, and (2) whether different wavebands within the UV-B elicit different responses. Responses to brief (30 min) irradiations with 3 different UV wavebands all included transient inhibition of elongation during irradiation followed by wavelength specific responses. Irradiations with proportionally greater short wavelength UV-B (37% of UV-B between 280 and 300 nm) induced inhibition of hypocotyl elongation within 20 min of onset of irradiation, while UV-B including only wavelengths longer than 290 nm (and only 8% of UV-B between 290 and 300 nm) induced inhibition of hypocotyl elongation with a lag of 1-2 h. The response to short wavelength UV-B was persistent for at least 24 h, while the response to long wavelength UV-B lasted only 2-3 h. The UV-A treatment induced reductions in elongation rates of approximately 6-9 h following exposure followed by a continued decline in rates for the following 15-18 h. Short wavelength UV-B also induced positive phototropic curvature in both cucumber and Arabidopsis seedlings, and this response was present in nph-1 mutant Arabidopsis seedlings defective in normal blue light phototropism. Reciprocity was not found for the response to short wavelength UV-B. The short wavelength and long wavelength UV-B responses differed in dose-response relationships and both short wavelength responses (phototropic curvature and elongation inhibition) increased sharply at wavelengths below 300 nm. These results indicate that different photosensory processes are involved in mediating growth and morphological responses to short wavelength UV-B (280-300 nm), long wavelength UV-B (essentially 300-320 nm) and UV-A. The existence of two separate types of hypocotyl inhibition responses to UV-B, with one that depends on the intensity of the light source, provides alternate interpretations to findings in other studies of UV-B induced photomorphogenesis and may explain inconsistencies between action spectra for inhibition of stem growth. 相似文献

Blue light induces a long-term suppression of epicotyl elongation in red-light-grown pea (Pisum sativum L.) seedlings. The fluence-response characteristics are bell-shaped, indicating the possibility of two different blue-light responses: a lower fluence response causing suppression and a higher fluence response alleviating the suppression. To determine if two responses are in effect, we have grown pea seedlings under dark conditions hoping to eliminate one or the other response. Under these growth conditions, only the lower fluence portion of the response (suppression of elongation) is apparent. The kinetics of suppression are similar to those observed for the lower fluence response of red-light-grown seedlings. The response to blue light in the dark-grown seedlings is not due to the excitation of phytochrome because a pulse of far-red light large enough to negate phytochrome-induced suppression has no effect on the blue-light-induced suppression. Furthermore, treatment of the dark-grown seedlings with red light immediately prior to treatment with high fluence blue light does not elicit the higher fluence response, indicating that the role of red light in the blue high fluence response is to allow the plant to achieve a specific developmental state in which it is competent to respond to the higher fluences of blue light. 相似文献

Cryptochromes mediate blue light-dependent photomorphogenic responses, such as inhibition of hypocotyl elongation. To investigate the underlying mechanism, we analyzed a genetic suppressor, scc7-D (suppressors of cry1cry2), which suppressed the long-hypocotyl phenotype of the cry1cry2 (cryptochrome1/cryptochrome2) mutant in a light-dependent but wavelength-independent manner. scc7-D is a gain-of-expression allele of the GA2ox8 gene encoding a gibberellin (GA)-inactivating enzyme, GA 2-oxidase. Although scc7-D is hypersensitive to light, transgenic seedlings expressing GA2ox at a level higher than scc7-D showed a constitutive photomorphogenic phenotype, confirming a general role of GA2ox and GA in the suppression of hypocotyl elongation. Prompted by this result, we investigated blue light regulation of mRNA expression of the GA metabolic and catabolic genes. We demonstrated that cryptochromes are required for the blue light regulation of GA2ox1, GA20ox1, and GA3ox1 expression in transient induction, continuous illumination, and photoperiodic conditions. The kinetics of cryptochrome induction of GA2ox1 expression and cryptochrome suppression of GA20ox1 or GA3ox1 expression correlate with the cryptochrome-dependent transient reduction of GA(4) in etiolated wild-type seedlings exposed to blue light. Therefore we propose that in deetiolating seedlings, cryptochromes mediate blue light regulation of GA catabolic/metabolic genes, which affect GA levels and hypocotyl elongation. Surprisingly, no significant change in the GA(4) content was detected in the whole shoot samples of the wild-type or cry1cry2 seedlings grown in the dark or continuous blue light, suggesting that cryptochromes may also regulate GA responsiveness and/or trigger cell- or tissue-specific changes of the level of bioactive GAs. 相似文献

Effects of light quality on the chloroplastic ultrastructure and photosynthetic characteristics of cucumber seedlings 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
To understand how light quality influences plant photosynthesis, we investigated chloroplastic ultrastructure, chlorophyll fluorescence and photosynthetic parameters, Rubisco and chlorophyll content and photosynthesis-related genes expression in cucumber seedlings exposed to different light qualities: white, red, blue, yellow and green lights with the same photosynthetic photon flux density of 100 μmol m?2 s?1. The results revealed that plant growth, CO2 assimilation rate and chlorophyll content were significantly reduced in the seedlings grown under red, blue, yellow and green lights as compared with those grown under white light, but each monochromatic light played its special role in regulating plant morphogenesis and photosynthesis. Seedling leaves were thickened and slightly curled; Rubisco biosynthesis, expression of the rca, rbcS and rbcL, the maximal photochemical efficiency of PSII (Fv/Fm) and quantum yield of PSII electron transport (ФPSII) were all increased in seedlings grown under blue light as compared with those grown under white light. Furthermore, the photosynthetic rate of seedlings grown under blue light was significantly increased, and leaf number and chlorophyll content of seedlings grown under red light were increased as compared with those exposed to other monochromatic lights. On the contrary, the seedlings grown under yellow and green lights were dwarf with the new leaves etiolated. Moreover, photosynthesis, Rubisco biosynthesis and relative gene expression were greatly decreased in seedlings grown under yellow and green light, but chloroplast structural features were less influenced. Interestingly, the Fv/Fm, ФPSII value and chlorophyll content of the seedlings grown under green light were much higher than those grown under yellow light. 相似文献

Sour orange (Citrus aurantium L.) seedlings grown for six months under covers transmitting light of different spectral composition, were compared with others grown under a white cover (control) and outside in full daylight. The intensity of transmitted light was equalized under all covers and attained only 20% of full daylight. Seedlings grown in daylight were shorter, had more internodes, smaller leaves, less chlorophyll and more ascorbic acid than the others. Blue + far-red covers (no transmission between 560–700 nm) enhanced seedling length, the protein and chlorophyll content and peroxidase activity of leaves. When also the wave-range above 700 nm was cut out (blue) seedlings were the shortest, and leaves had very high protein and chlorophyll content, but much less ascorbic acid and lower peroxidase activity. Red + far-red covers (no transmission below 500 nm) enhanced seedling length more than blue + far-red; leaves contained as much protein as control, but had relatively high chlorophyll and peroxidase activity. Ascorbic acid was as low as in blue light. 相似文献
