Genetic aspects of the interrelation between alkaloids and chemical elements in <Emphasis Type="Italic">Atropa belladonna</Emphasis> L. and <Emphasis Type="Italic">Glaucium flavum</Emphasis> Crantz. Plants

The variability of the contents of tropane and isoquinoline alkaloids, ashes, Na, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, Mn, Cu, Zn, Co, Mo, Cr, Al, Ba, V, Ni, Sr, Cd, Pb, J, and Ag was studied in individual plants of the industrial population of belladonna (Atropa belladonna L.) and yellow horned poppy (Glaucium flavum Crantz.). Numerous linear and nonlinear correlations of isoquinoline and tropane alkaloids with ashes and mineral elements were revealed by means of correlation and regression analyses. Alkaline earth elements (especially Sr and Ba) were shown to have a major role in the regulation of tropane alkaloid accumulation in belladonna leaves. K and Ni were of particular importance in the aerial part of yellow horned poppy. These elements at the suboptimal concentrations were most favorable for isoquinoline alkaloid accumulation in yellow horned poppy. Analytical mathematical models were derived for the regulation of alkaloid metabolism in test plants by some mineral elements (Ba, Mg, Al, Sr, Ni, Mn, and K). Our results indicate that the interrelation between alkaloids and elements in these plants is genetically determined.

镉胁迫下草莓幼龄期叶、根矿质元素积累和分布的变化

采用水培实验,研究重金属镉对草莓幼龄期叶、根矿质元素含量和分布的影响。结果表明,高量镉降低草莓根中K、Ca、Mg、P、Cu、Zn、Mn、Fe的积累,叶片相应元素以及B、Mo含量也随镉浓度增大而呈降低趋势;但镉浓度较低时,K、Mg、P、Zn在叶、根中的含量均增加,而后才随镉处理浓度提高而降低。在镉胁迫下,同一元素在草莓叶、根之间的分布也受到影响,而且某些矿质元素含量间有显著相关性。     

Studies on the Characteristic of Element Contents in the Dominant Plant Species of the Three gorges Region in China

The characteristics of the contents of 20 elements (Al, Fe, Mn, Ca, Mg, K, S, Si, P, Cd, Cu, Zn, Ti, Ni, Sr, Mo, Na, B, Cr, V) in 16 plant species collected from the Three Gorges Region in China were investigated. The average contents of Ca, K and Mg were higher than 1 000 μg·g-1, that of Al, P, Si, Fe, S and Mn ranged between 100—1 000 μg·g-1 and Ti, Cu, Ni, Cr, Mo, Cd and V were less than 10 μg·g- 1. The level of Na content was less than that of the reported. The main character of the element contents was of the Ca> K type. The contents of P, S, Ca and K in different plant samples showed a normal distribution pattern, while Al and Mn showed a elements lognormal distribution pattern. Plant species differed greatly in the element contents. On analyzing the coefficient of variation (C. V., % ), Al, Mn, Mg, Ni, Sr and Fe had higher C.V., while the C.V. of K, S, P, Cr, Cd and Cu was less than 60%, and Cu had the lowest C.V. The correlations between Al and Fe, Al and Ti, Al and Cr, A1 and V, Cd and Sr, Cd and Mo, Fe and V, Zn and Cr, Ni and Sr, Mg and Ni, Mo and Sr, Ca and Sr, Cr and Mo, Na and Mg, Na and P, P and S were statistically significant in different plant species. The classification of the 16 plant species and 20 dements by two-way indicator species analysis (TWINSPAN) method may suggest the difference in dement contents of the different plant species.     

MINERAL CONCENTRATIONS IN AN AUTOPARASITIC PHORADENDRON CALIFORNICUM GROWING ON A PARASITIC P. CALIFORNICUM AND ITS HOST,CERCIDIUM FLORIDUM

Tissue concentrations of 12 mineral elements (Al, Ca, Cu, Fe, K, Mg, Mn, amino-N, Na, P, Si, and Zn) were measured in an autoparasitic mistletoe (Phoradendron californicum), the parasitic mistletoe on which it was growing (Phoradendron californicum), and the host tree (Cercidium floridum). Mineral concentrations in the autoparasite were typically 1.1–1.3 times higher than in the parasite. Mineral concentrations of all elements except Ca, Fe, Mg, Mn, and Si were higher in the parasitic mistletoe than its host. Mineral concentration differences are discussed relative to accumulation via the transpiration stream and translocation within the host via the phloem.

Variations in the Mineral Composition of Herbarium Plant Species Collected During the Last Three Centuries

Mineral content (dry weight basis) was determined for herbariumspecimens of 12 C₃ plants (trees, shrubs and herbs) collectedduring the last 250 years in N.E. Spain. Present values of Al,Ca, Cu, Sr, Fe, P, Mg, Mn, K, Na, S, and Zn were always lowerthan in any other period of the last three centuries. Only oneC₄ plant was analysed. It presented a similar pattern to theC₃ plants. These results are in accordance with experimentalresults that have shown that the mineral content of plants grownin elevated CO₂ is generally lowered. Increased atmosphericCO₂ and other anthropogenic environmental changes are suggestedas possible causes of the changes in mineral content. Key words: Leaf mineral content, Al, Ca, Cu, Sr, Fe, P, Mg, Mn, K, Na, S, Zn, herbaria, last three centuries     

Mineral nutrition of haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus(L.): a comparison of wild and cultured stock

The macro and trace mineral composition of vertebrae and muscle in wild and cultured haddock Melanogrammus aeglefinus was determined. Results indicated that haddock deposit c . 10% higher amounts of mineral than salmonids. Based on distribution between the analysed tissues as well as concentration differences, the minerals in wild and cultured haddock were divided into four categories: (1) As, Mn, Na, S and Zn concentration did not show any significant ( P  > 0·05) variation in both muscle and vertebrae; (2) Cr, Co, Mg, Mo and Si concentrations in wild and culture stocks muscle did not vary but vertebrae concentration showed significant differences ( P  < 0·05); (3) Ca and Cu concentration varied in muscle while remaining the same in vertebrae; (4) Al, Ba, Fe, P, K and Sr concentration showed a significant difference in both muscle and vertebrae. Vertebrae P content of cultured haddock was lower than that of wild fish whereas muscle P content was relatively high in cultured fish. Vertebrae and muscle Fe content of cultured haddock was significantly higher than in wild fish. The Mg, K, Co and Cr concentrations in vertebrae were significantly higher in wild haddock than in cultured fish, whereas Mo and Al levels were low. These differences in trace element composition of wild and cultured haddock were probably related to differences in food source and therefore the mineral composition of the diet. The nutritional significance of these findings is discussed.     

Regulation of Mineral Redistribution in Pod-Bearing Soybean Explants

On the way from the roots to the seeds during reproductive developmentin soybean (Glycine max), a large proportion of the mineralspass through the leaves rather than travelling directly viathe xylem. This direct and indirect movement of mineral nutrientshas important implications for mineral redistribution, seeddevelopment and leaf senescence. Therefore, we have studiedthe role of cytokinin and mineral flux from the roots in regulatingmineral redistribution from the leaves to the seeds using explants,i.e. a leaf, a pod and a subtending stem segment, with theirbases immersed in treatment solutions. Thus, defined solutionscontaining cytokinin and/or minerals can be substituted forthe roots. When explants (excised at early-mid podfill) aresupplied H₂O only, leaf N, P, K, Mo, Mg, Zn, Fe, B, Cu, Ca,and Mn decline, ranging from 93% for Mo to 38% for Fe. In explantson H₂O, N, P, K, Mo, Mg, Zn, and Fe appear to be redistributedfrom the leaves to the seeds, while the B, Cu, Ca, and Mn lostfrom the leaves do not seem to move to the seeds. Although amixture of minerals resembling xylem sap can delay net lossof these elements from the leaves, it does not prevent the decreases.The cytokinin zeatin (4.6 µM) inhibits the loss of N,IC, Mo, Mg, Zn, Fe, B, Cu, Ca, and Mn from the leaves, but notthat of P. When combined with minerals, zeatin not only preventsthe loss of the minerals from the leaves but may even greatlyincrease them with the possible exception of Zn, Fe, and Cu.Supplying the mineral nutrient mixture increases the quantitiesof N, P, K, Mg, Cu, and B in the seeds but not Zn, Fe, Mn, Ca,and Mo. For those minerals, especially N, where zeatin inhibitsefflux from the leaves, it may reduce the amounts in the seeds,but it does not change P, K, Mg, and Ca. The accumulation andredistribution patterns of the different mineral nutrients showmany dissimilarities thereby suggesting differences in the controlof their distribution.

Mineral Composition of Human fascia lata

The mineral composition of pathologically unchanged human fascia lata was examined here using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES) method for the first time. The total concentrations of Ag, Al, B, Ba, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, Mg, Mn, Mo, Ni, P, Pb, Sr, Ti, V and Zn were simultaneously measured in the tissue secured during autopsy. The age-related changes and between-gender differences in mineral composition of the examined tissue were investigated and discussed.     

An analysis of the growth response of carrot seedlings to deficiency in some mineral nutrients

Critical plant concentrations for a reduction in relative growth rate to 90% of that of fully nourished plants were estimated by a novel method for several mineral nutrients. Carrot plants were grown from seed for 28 days in a range of nutrient solutions omitting N, P, K, Ca, S, Mg, Fe, B, Mn, Zn, Cu and Mo as separate treatments. All treatments except -Mn, -Zn, -Cu and -Mo resulted in effects on plant growth and the development of deficiency symptoms. Estimates of critical concentrations were based on a simple simulation model incorporating the principle of nutrient dilution with increasing plant weight and on mineral analysis of the plants. Parameters governing the shape of the relationship between fractional relative growth rate and plant nutrient concentration were altered until the model predicted the observed final mean dry weight of deficient plants and time of divergence of this growth curve from that of fully nourished plants. Critical concentrations so obtained were higher than those previously reported for Ca, Fe, N and P in carrots and lower for K, Mg and S.     

Influence of organic matter on the availability of certain elements to barley seedlings grown by a modified neubauer method

Summary The influence of organic matter on the availability of 17 elements (Na, K, Cs¹³⁷, Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, N, P, B, Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn, Mo, Al, and Si) to barley seedlings grown by a modified Neubauer technique was determined. Three different soils that were treated with dry ground mustard spinach leaves (1 g/100 g soil) and incubated for various lengths of time (0, 1, 2, 5, 9, 13, and 17 weeks) in moist condition before cropping were used for this study.The addition of organic matter to the soils increased the plant yields. The average N and K concentrations were consistently increased in the plants grown in soils with added organic matter. The average concentration of B, P, Na, Mg, Sr, Ba, and Si were almost consistently decreased in the plants. The average contents of Cu, Zn, Fe, Mn, Mo, Ca, and Al varied with the soil types and precropping incubation time. The average Cs¹³⁷ contents of the plants were reduced considerably by the addition of organic matter to the soils. The reduction of Cs¹³⁷ contents ranged from 29 to 75 per cent, depending on the pre-cropping incubation time and soil type. The main factors causing this reduction were considered to be microbial immobilization, ion antagonism by K, carbohydrate dilution, and the state of decomposition and the kind of organic matter added to the soils.     

Determination of Major and Minor Elements in the <Emphasis Type="Italic">Malva sylvestris</Emphasis> L. from Turkey Using ICP-OES Techniques

In this work, Malva sylvestris var. mauritiana (L.) leaves were collected from different points in Muradiye region of Manisa-Turkey. The leaves were dissolved by wet digestion method using a mixture of mineral acid. Concentrations of Ag, Al, B, Ba, Bi, Ca, Cd, Co, Cr, Cu, Fe, K, La, Mg, Mn, Na, Ni, Pb, Sn, Sr, Sb, Si, Ti, U, Zn, and Zr in prepared solutions were determined by using inductively coupled plasma optical emission spectrometry (ICP-OES). High Ca (13,848 mg/kg) and Mg (1,936 mg/kg) concentrations were found at the leaves. Obtained values were compared with the internationally permitted (standard) values. The results of elements were analyzed statistically (analysis of variance test). For different leaf sizes, concentration factors were calculated.     

Accumulation of electropositive and amphoteric elements in leaves in relation to genetic-fixed ability for biosynthesis of anthocyanins

Summary By means of semi-quantitative spectral analysis in UV-region (carbon electrodes) have been found: 1) in young leaves ofPersica vulgaris Miller formaatropurpurea Schneid. more Na, K, Cu, Mg, Ba, B, Al, Si, P, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni than in the older leaves 2) in leaves of bud-mutation characterized by increased ability for biosynthesis of anthocyanins more K, Mg, Ca, Sr, Al, Si, P, Cr, Mn, Fe, Ni and less Ag, Zn than in normal leaves ofEuonymus fortunei (Turcz.) Hand.-Mazz. var.argentei-marginata Rehd. characterised at source plant by high accumulation-coefficient of Ag (=500). Influence of ions on anthocyanins formation has been discussed.     

Plant Seeds as Mineral Nutrient Resource for Seedlings--A Comparison of Plants from Calcareous and Silicate Soils

Mineral nutrients of seeds constitute a significant source ofessential elements to seedlings and developing individuals ofvascular plants. In spite of their potential ecological significance,seed nutrient pools have attracted little attention with respectto calcifuge–calcicole behaviour of plants. The objectivesof this study were, therefore, to compare concentrations of13 macro- and micronutrients (K, Rb, Mg, Ca, Mn, Fe, Co, Cu,Zn, Mo, B, P and S) in seeds and leaves of 35 mainly herbaceousvascular plant species growing on both limestone (calcareous)and silicate (non-calcareous) soils. Concentrations of Rb andCo in seeds of plants originating from limestone soils were,on average, about half of those from silicate soils. Concentrationsof Mn, Mg, Zn and P of seeds were, or tended to be, lower orslightly lower in limestone-soil plants, whereas mean Ca andMo concentrations were higher. Comparing seed and leaf concentrationsof the same species from limestone and silicate soils generallydemonstrated a high P enrichment ratio, but a particularly lowK enrichment ratio in seeds, valid for both types of soil. Itwas also apparent that Fe and Mn, micronutrients which are lessreadily solubilized and taken up by plants on limestone soils,had significantly higher seed:leaf concentration ratios in plantsfrom limestone than from silicate soils, whereas the oppositewas true for Ca. This indicates a ‘strategy’ tosatisfy the demand of seedlings for elements which are lessreadily available in the soil.Copyright 1998 Annals of BotanyCompany Seed, leaf, plant, nutrient, content, calcareous, silicate, acid, soil.     

DEVELOPMENTAL CHANGES IN ENERGY (ATP AND ADP) AND NUTRIENT LEVELS PRIOR TO SENESCENCE IN PODDED AND DEPODDED PEA PLANTS

Energy (ATP and ADP) levels in stem apices of depodded pea plants (Pisum sativum L. cv. Little Marvel) were significantly higher than those of podded plants during the pod-filling stage before whole plant senescence. This difference in energy content appeared before decreases in leaf chlorophyll and soluble proteins occurred in plants of both treatments. In contrast, the mineral nutrient levels (N, P, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, and Mn) in stem apices of plants from both treatments were similar. Energy levels in reproductive leaves from podded and depodded plants were similar. The mineral nutrients in leaves with fruits in their axils and similar leaves of depodded plants were comparable except for nitrogen. Plant growth measurements—dry weight, leaf area, leaf dry weight, root/shoot ratio—were significantly higher in depodded than podded plants. Whole plant senescence occurred significantly earlier in podded than in depodded pea plants.     

Uptake of magnesium,strontium, barium,and manganese byPlectonema boryanum (Cyanophyceae) with special reference to polyphosphate bodies

Summary The ability of a cyanobacterium to take up and concentrate metals in polyphosphate bodies was tested. It was found that Mg, Ba and Mn are taken up by 3 and 4 week old cultures ofP. boryanum and in all cases the metals were concentrated in the polyphosphate bodies. In the case of Mn it was also detected in the cytoplasm. Strontium was sometimes taken up and incorporated into dense bodies which contained Sr, high S, high K and low Ca. In a number of trials no uptake of Sr could be detected. Polyphosphate bodies, formed as a result of the overplus phenomenon did not incorporate the metal at the time they are being formed. Polyphosphate bodies from 2 and 3 week culture contain P, K, Ca and Mg while bodies from 4 week cultures also possess Zn.It is suggested that sequestering metals in polyphosphate bodies may be a significant mechanism by which heavy metals are concentrated.     

三种苦苣苔对石灰土和红壤的适应性分析

为探讨苦苣苔科植物对其岩溶生境的适应性,该研究选取黄花牛耳朵(Primulina lutea)、紫花报春苣苔(Pri.purpurea)和桂林蛛毛苣苔(Paraboea guilinensis)三种苦苣苔科植物,将其栽种在石灰土及红壤两种不同类型的土壤中,观测记录其生长性状并对其叶片元素含量进行测定和比较。植株采集过程中,同时采集自然生境中三种苦苣苔科植物叶片及取样植物基部土壤,并对叶片及土壤元素的含量进行测定,作为今后苗圃试验的参照。结果表明:三种苦苣苔科植物在两种土壤上的生长状况及适应性具有差异,其在石灰土上生长良好,在红壤上生长较差;在两种不同土壤中,除N外,桂林蛛毛苣苔的叶片其他元素(P、K、Mn、Mg、Ca、Zn、Cu)差异极显著(P0.01);除P外,紫花报春苣苔的叶片其他元素(N、K、Mn、Mg、Ca、Zn、Cu)差异极显著(P0.01);除N、Cu、Ca外,黄花牛耳朵的叶片元素(P、K、Mn、Mg、Zn)差异极显著(P0.01);三种植物的叶片元素比值,除少数值没有差异外,大部分指标差异都极显著;对叶片元素与栽培土壤元素的相关性分析,发现植物叶片Mn元素与土壤中N、Ca、Mg、Zn、Mn、有机质含量等呈正相关,土壤P元素与叶片中N、P元素呈正相关,而与叶片中Zn元素呈负相关关系。在其他栽培条件一致的条件下,土壤因素及物种差别是造成黄花牛耳朵、紫花报春苣苔和桂林蛛毛苣苔适应性产生差异的主要原因。
