黄瓜和绿豆下胚轴不定根发生的研究

在MS基本培养基上,黄瓜和绿豆幼苗的下胚轴切段培养4d时即可见不定根发生。下胚轴不同部位切段的发根能力不同。下胚轴切段反插时比正插时发根快1-2d,发根率也高于正插的;0.01-0.05mg/L的NAA还诱导下胚轴切段在形态学上端发根。TIBA对正插或反插的下胚轴切段的不定根发生都有抑制作用。结果提示,生长素极性运输活性对不定根形成起着重要作用。

番茄离体培养过程中器官发生的细胞组织学观察

对番茄下胚轴、子叶、茎段、叶片、叶柄不同类型外植体离体培养中有关细胞启动、分裂、分化以及器官发生作了细胞组织学观察。研究结果表明番茄不同类型外植体在同样的培养条件下,愈伤组织生长表现出明显差异,其中下胚轴、子叶诱导产生愈伤组织时,细胞启动最早,生长最快,其分裂方式基本为无丝分裂,未见有丝分裂,因此我们认为以不定芽方式获得转基因植株时,植株的所有性状变化,是否纯属目的基因所为,应该反复考察,不能忽视不定芽产生过程中的种种变化;下胚轴诱导愈伤组织形成时,细胞不规则的无丝分裂少于子叶,故下胚轴离体培养得到的正常芽的比例高于子叶的;番茄离体培养中不定芽通常发生在愈伤组织的周边区,也可起源于维管组织结节周围的形成层状细胞。不定根则由茎中柱鞘处发生。

生长素和模拟微重力效应对大白菜不定根形态发生的影响

Under the induction of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), adventitious roots were differentiated on hypocotyl segments derived from seedlings of Chinese cabbage (Brassica campestris spp. pekinensis). IAA at concentration of 0.4-1.0 mg/L in solid MS medium incited many adventitious roots on hypocotyl segments. The earliest anatomic changes were observed on cut surface of hypocotyl segments under optical microscope 24 hours after IAA treatment: cytoplasmic and nuclear density became higher in a few of parenchytmatous cells adjacent to phloem in tissue of pericycle, followed by cell divisions. Lately, the dividing cells expanded and developed into root primordium from which root cap was differentiated. After five days, most roots protruded through hypocotyl cortex and appeared just below the cut surface. The rooting capacity of the segments derived from three regions of each hypocotyl was different. High level of IAA modified the polarity of root formation on segment inserted upside down and sucrose increased the function of IAA. Additionally, microgravity did not significantly change the rooting polarity under the condition of stimulated microgravity, but it increased the competence of explants to IAA treatment. The results presented here provided an experimental system for further investigation of molecular events associated with adventitious root initiation.     

Characteristics of adventitious root formation in cotyledon segments of mango (Mangifera indica L. cv. Zihua): two induction patterns, histological origins and the relationship with polar auxin transport

Cotyledon segments derived from zygote embryos of mango (Mangifera indica L. cv. Zihua) were cultured on agar medium for 28 days. Depending on different pre-treatments with plant growth regulators, two distinct patterns of adventitious roots were observed. A first pattern of adventitious roots was seen at the proximal cut surface, whereas no roots were formed on the opposite, distal cut surface. The rooting ability depended on the segment length and was significantly promoted by pre-treatment of embryos with indol-3-acetic acid (IAA) or indole-3-butyric acid (IBA) for 1 h. A pre-treatment with the auxin transport inhibitor 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid (TIBA) completely inhibited adventitious root formation on proximal cut surfaces. A second pattern of roots was observed on abaxial surfaces of cotyledon segments when embryos were pre-treated with 2,700 μM 1-naphthalenacetic acid (NAA) for 1 h. Histological observations indicated that both patterns of adventitious roots originated from parenchymal cells, but developmental directions of the root primordia were different. A polar auxin transport assay was used to demonstrate transport of [³H] indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) in cotyledon segments from the distal to the proximal cut surface. In conclusion, we suggest that polar auxin transport plays a role in adventitious root formation at the proximal cut surface, whereas NAA levels (influx by diffusion; carrier mediated efflux) seem to control development of adventitious roots on the abaxial surface of cotyledon segments.     

Chloramphenicol effects on adventitious root production by radish hypocotyls

Abstract

The excision of the root accelerates greatly the formation of adventitious roots in the hypocotyl of etiolated radish seedlings, but if the seedlings develop in CAP 1×10^?4M, no adventitious root are induced after cutting. IAA either alone or associated with CAP, significantly increases the number of primordia in normal hypocotyls if given at the moment of cutting, while it has not stimulatory effect on the hypocotyls of seedlings grown in CAP. IAA has significant effect on both elongation and tickening of hypocotyl segments prepared from seedlings grown in CAP, and this could indicate a specific action of the inhibitor either on a particular process or on particular cells.

The endodermis and the pericycle, which are the two cell layers implicated in the formation of the adventitious roots, could be the mediators of this particular effect of CAP in rooting.     

Comparative effect of IBA, BSAA and 5,6-Cl2-IAA-Me on the rooting of hypocotyl in mung bean

Mung bean hypocotyl cuttings were treated with indole-3-butyric acid (IBA), 3-(benzo[b]selenienyl)acetic acid (BSAA) and 5,6-dichloroindole-3-acetic acid methyl ester (5,6-Cl2-IAA-Me) at different concentrations, respectively. Each chemical produced the maximum number of adventitious roots at a different concentration. Compared with IBA treatment, 5,6-Cl2-IAA-Me and BSAA treatments significantly increased root numbers on hypocotyl cuttings at lower concentration, particularly of 5,6-Cl2-IAA-Me treatment. Combinations of paclobutrazol (PB) with either 5,6-Cl2-IAA-Me or BSAA significantly stimulated the production of more adventitious roots than either chemical alone or combined. Capillary electrophoresis analysis have shown that the levels of IAA, IBA and BSAA in IBA plus PB or BSAA plus PB treatments were higher than those of IBA or BSAA alone. It was suggested that the cause of the synergistic effect of IBA (or BSAA) plus PB treatment might be due to increased endogenous auxin level. The activities of peroxidase and IAA oxidase in the rooting zone coincided with root development, indicating that the activities of these two enzymes were positively correlated to rooting. Peroxidase and IAA oxidase activity in all treatments started 24 h and 12 h after cutting, respectively. It is suggested that the major role of IAA oxidase differed from that of peroxidase in adventitious root formation.     

Adventitious rooting in hypocotyls of sunflower (Helianthus annuus) seedlings. IV. The role of changes in endogenous free and conjugated indole‐3‐acetic acid

We have studied the role of endogenous auxin on adventitious rooting in hypocotyls of derooted sunflower (Helianthus annuus L. var. Dahlgren 131) seedlings. Endogenous free and conjugated indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) were measured in three segments of hypocotyls of equal length (apical, middle, basal) by using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry with [¹³C₆]-IAA as an internal standard. At the time original roots were excised (0 h), the free IAA level in the hypocotyls showed an acropetally decreasing gradient, but conjugated IAA level increased acropetally; i.e. free to total IAA ratio was highest in the basal portion of hypocotyls. The basal portion is the region where most of root primordia were found. Some primordia were seen in this region within 24 h after the roots were excised. The quantity of free IAA in the middle portion of the hypocotyl increased up to 15 h after excision and then decreased. In this middle region there were fewer root primordia, and they could not be seen until 72 h. In the apical portion the amount of free IAA steadily increased and no root primordia were seen by 72 h. Surgical removal of various parts of the hypocotyl tissues caused adventitious root formation in the hypocotyl regions where basipetally transported IAA could accumulate. Reduction in the basipetal flow of auxin by N-1-naphthylphthalamic acid and 2,3,5-tri-iodobenzoic acid resulted in fewer adventitious roots. The fewest root primordia were seen if the major sources of endogenous auxin were removed by decapitation of the cotyledons and apical bud. Exogenous auxins promoted rooting and were able to completely overcome the inhibitory effect of 2,3,5-tri-iodobenzoic acid. Exogenous auxins were only partially able to overcome the inhibitory effect of decapitation. We conclude that in sunflower hypocotyls endogenously produced auxin is necessary for adventitious root formation. The higher concentrations of auxin in the basal portion may be partially responsible for that portion of the hypocotyl producing the greatest number of primordia. In addition to auxins, other factors such as wound ethylene and lowered cytokinin levels caused by excision of the original root system cuttings must also be important.

Auxin — Calcium Interaction in Adventitious Root Formation in the Hypocotyl Explants of Sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.)

Auxin-calcium interaction has been studied to understand their involvement in adventitious root initiation from the hypocotyl explants of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.). When hypocotyl explants were cultured on MS medium (containing calcium), 1 mg l^-1 IAA was found to be optimal for root induction. However, the hypocotyl explants washed in EGTA (10_-5M) solution for the removal of extracellular calcium, when cultured on medium containing IAA and calcium, exhibited enhanced rooting response. When EGTA-washed explants were cultured on the medium supplemented with lanthanum chloride (10^-6 and 10^-5M), it resulted in the inhibition of the rooting response and this inhibitory effect could be alleviated by the simultaneous addition of IAA. Similar observations have been made by using calcium channel blockers, verapamil and TMB-8, and also a calmodulin inhibitor, trifluoperazine. A net influx of extracellular calcium in the differentiating cells is thus presumed to accompany the auxin-induced response. These results have been discussed in light of initial lack of polarity in the decapitated hypocotyl segments subjected to auxin treatment.     

Polar transport and accumulation of indole-3-acetic acid during root regeneration by Pinus lambertiana embryos

Summary The relation of indoleacetic acid (IAA) transport to accumulation of auxin at the base of cuttings and to polar root formation was investigated with small cuttings from germinating embryos of Pinus lambertiana.The transport of endogenous auxin participates in regeneration of roots. This is shown by the facts that (1) more than 40% of the cuttings rooted without addition of exogenous indoleacetic acid; (2) the first regeneration always occurred at the basal tip of a slanting cut; and (3) 2,3,5-triiodobenzoic acid (TIBA), a specific inhibitor of auxin transport, totally inhibited rooting. Addition of IAA to the medium increased the number of roots formed per rooting hypocotyl.Sections of hypocotyls excised from dormant embryos and tested immediately after 2 h hydration were capable of polar transport of IAA. This polarity increased during the first 3 days of culture because of a marked increase in basipetal transport. Culturing the cuttings in 1 M IAA for 3–5 days doubled both the basipetal transport of 1-¹⁴C-IAA by hypocotyl segments and the accumulation of radioactivity at the base of cuttings.The extent of the accumulation at the base of cuttings was similar at early (2 days, first mitoses) and late stages (5 days, organized meristem) of regeneration and was not affected by removal of the regenerating region immediately prior to uptake and transport of ¹⁴C-IAA. The accumulation was inhibited by TIBA. In terms of increase in wet and dry weight and mitotic activity, the cotyledons rather than the regenerating root meristems were the most actively growing region of the cuttings. The upper part of the hypocotyl elongated more than the region of the slanting cut where regeneration was occurring.These results provide no support for the idea that the regenerating root controls the direction of polar transport by acting as a sink. The results are consistent with the view that polar auxin transport delivers auxin to the base of the cutting and raises the local concentration to levels sufficient to promote root formation.     

Auxin and light control of adventitious rooting in Arabidopsis require ARGONAUTE1

Adventitious rooting is a quantitative genetic trait regulated by both environmental and endogenous factors. To better understand the physiological and molecular basis of adventitious rooting, we took advantage of two classes of Arabidopsis thaliana mutants altered in adventitious root formation: the superroot mutants, which spontaneously make adventitious roots, and the argonaute1 (ago1) mutants, which unlike superroot are barely able to form adventitious roots. The defect in adventitious rooting observed in ago1 correlated with light hypersensitivity and the deregulation of auxin homeostasis specifically in the apical part of the seedlings. In particular, a clear reduction in endogenous levels of free indoleacetic acid (IAA) and IAA conjugates was shown. This was correlated with a downregulation of the expression of several auxin-inducible GH3 genes in the hypocotyl of the ago1-3 mutant. We also found that the Auxin Response Factor17 (ARF17) gene, a potential repressor of auxin-inducible genes, was overexpressed in ago1-3 hypocotyls. The characterization of an ARF17-overexpressing line showed that it produced fewer adventitious roots than the wild type and retained a lower expression of GH3 genes. Thus, we suggest that ARF17 negatively regulates adventitious root formation in ago1 mutants by repressing GH3 genes and therefore perturbing auxin homeostasis in a light-dependent manner. These results suggest that ARF17 could be a major regulator of adventitious rooting in Arabidopsis.
