To elucidate the physiological role of exogenous nitrate under anaerobic conditions, we studied the effect of 10 mM KNO3 on the mitochondrial ultrastructure in rice (Oryza sativa L.) coleoptiles and in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) roots, detached from four-day-old seedlings, under strict anoxia. In wheat roots, following 6-h-long anoxia in the absence of exogenous nitrate, the mitochondrial membranes were partially degraded and, after 9 h under anoxia, the mitochondrial membranes and the membranes of other organelles were completely destroyed. In rice coleoptiles, the partial membrane degradation was observed only after 24 h and their complete breakdown after 48 h of anaerobiosis. In the presence of exogenous nitrate, no membrane destruction was noticed even after 9 and 48 h of anaerobiosis in wheat roots and rice coleoptiles, respectively. These results indicate that exogenous nitrate exerts protective action as a terminal electron acceptor, alternative to the molecular oxygen. Our findings are compared with the results of other researchers concerning the adverse or favorable nitrate action on plant growth, metabolism, and energy status under anaerobic stress. 相似文献

Mitochondrial ultrastructure in roots of mesophyte and hydrophyte at anoxia and after glucose feeding 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
Summary In order to investigate the nature of the tolerance of mesophytes and hydrophytes to root anaerobiosis, changes in the mitochondrial ultrastructure of excised roots (with and without added glucose under anoxia) were studied in plants from two ecologically opposite types-pumpkin and rice.A 12-hour exposure to anoxia led to mitochondrial degradation in roots of adult rice and pumpkin plants. The addition of glucose preserved cell ultrastructure for up to 72–96 hours. During this period mitochondrial ultrastructure changed. In rice roots this primarily involved an increased number of cristae and a change in their arrangement into parallel rows. Cells of pumpkin roots displayed long mitochondria (up to 55 m) of different profiles which fused to form a complex mitochondrial network that was in close association with parts of the endoplasmic reticulum carrying a large number of ribosomes. This may be regarded as an adaptive development that facilitates the transport of glycolytic energy along mitochondrial membranes to the sites of protein synthesis.It is concluded that root cells of a hydrophyte are not more tolerant to anoxia than mesophyte. Thus, the ability of hydrophytes to grow on anaerobic soils should be attributed not so much to peculiar features of the roots' metabolism but to the ability of these plants to perform an easy transport of O2 from leaves to roots. With respect to mesophytes it is stressed that the supply of assimilates is important for the resistance of roots to soil anaerobiosis. 相似文献

Changes in the mitochondrial proteome during the anoxia to air transition in rice focus around cytochrome-containing respiratory complexes 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The ability of rice seedlings to grow from dry seed under anoxia provides a rare opportunity in a multicellular eukaryote to study the stages of mitochondrial biogenesis triggered by oxygen availability. The function and proteome of rice mitochondria synthesized under 6 days of anoxia following 1 day of air adaptation have been compared with mitochondria isolated from 7-day aerobically grown rice seedlings. Rice coleoptiles grown under anoxia, and the mitochondria isolated from them respired very slowly compared with air-adapted and air-grown seedlings. Immunodetection of key mitochondrial protein markers, isoelectric focusing electrophoresis followed by SDS-PAGE to make soluble mitochondria proteome maps, and shotgun sequencing of mitochondrial proteins by liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry all revealed similar patterns of the major function categories of mitochondrial proteins from both anoxic and air-adapted samples. Activity analysis showed respiratory oxidases markedly increased in activity during the air adaptation of seedlings. Blue-native electrophoresis followed by SDS-PAGE of mitochondrial membrane proteins clearly showed the very low abundance of assembled b/c complex and cytochrome c(1) oxidase complex in the mitochondrial membrane in anoxic samples and the dramatic increase in the abundance of these complexes on air adaptation. Total heme content, cytochrome absorbance spectra, and the electron carrier, cytochrome c, also increased markedly on air adaptation. These results likely reflect limited heme synthesis for cytochrome assembly in the absence of oxygen and represent a discrete and reversible blockage of full mitochondrial biogenesis in this anoxia-tolerant species. 相似文献

To investigate the presence of a possible synergistic effect of IAA and anaerobiosis on rice coleoptile elongation, excised coleoptiles grown in aerobic and anaerobic conditions were tested and compared with intact seedling aerial parts for response to exogenous IAA and for levels of endogenous IAA. Excised coleoptiles were fed with3H-IAA to study aerobic and anaerobic IAA metabolism. Our results can be summarized as follows. (1) IAA and anaerobiosis have no synergistic effect on rice coleoptile elongation. (2) This behavior is due not to an inhibition of IAA uptake but probably to a reduced and different IAA metabolism in coleoptile grown in the absence of oxygen. (3) In anaerobic rice coleoptiles, the conversion to inactive conjugate (IAA-Asp) could be adopted as means of detoxification in the case of abnormally high and unutilized IAA levels. (4) The increase in IAA level found in coleoptiles of intact seedlings during anaerobic treatment could be due, as in the roots, to a translocation from the endosperm, in which the hormone is contained in a great quantity. 相似文献

Tolerance of crop plants to oxygen deficiency stress: fermentative activity and photosynthetic capacity of entire seedlings under hypoxia and anoxia 总被引:33,自引:0,他引:33
The study investigates the reactions of rice, wheat and maize to anoxia (plants without access to oxygen) and hypoxia (roots with very limited access to oxygen). We studied the adaptations of these intact crop plants because they are known to differ widely in their tolerance to oxygen deficiency. In hypoxia, there was an accumulation of sugars, especially in wheat and maize, although both flood-sensitive species significantly increased the activities of fermentative and glycolytic enzymes, clearly more than in rice. In rice, avoiding an oxygen limitation due to the effective aeration system (30% of root cross-sectional area) may have accounted for only a minor metabolic reaction to hypoxia. In anoxia, maize and wheat quickly lost viability and nearly all photosynthetic capacity, while most rice leaves stayed turgid and green, losing only 50% of the photosynthetic capacity. A strong metabolic arrest under anoxia was obvious for the sucrolytic, glycolytic and fermentative enzymes in all tested species, but was most pronounced in rice. Of the 14 enzymes studied, rice showed the lowest activity increase in hypoxia for 11 enzymes, and the strongest activity decrease in anoxia for 8 enzymes. However, rice was able even under anoxia to keep a 1/4 of the ATP level of the aerated control, while it was at the detection limit in maize and wheat. It appears that in anoxic rice, the switch to metabolic dormancy and maintenance of basic shoot meristems diminishes the needs for energy and substrate. Additionally, rice already has lower sugar demand under hypoxia, and sugar supply appears to be sustained under anoxia by a functioning anaerobic amylase and by the photosynthetically active shoot. 相似文献

The objective of this work was to elucidate a possible adaptive role of lipid biosynthesis and unsaturated fatty acids (FAs), esterified to lipids, as terminal acceptors of electrons, alternative to molecular oxygen, in the shoots of rice seedlings (Oryza sativa L.) under conditions of strict anoxia. Biosynthesis of lipids and their accumulation, as well as the reduction of double bonds in unsaturated FAs, were studied by electron microscopic observation of the accumulation of lipid bodies in the cytoplasm and by the biochemical analysis of FAs in shoot lipids before and after anaerobic incubation of the shoots. The experiments were carried out with intact coleoptiles after 5 and 8 days of anaerobic germination of seeds (primary anoxia) and with detached shoots, preliminarily grown in air and then subjected to anoxia in the presence of 2% glucose for 48 h (secondary anoxia). In these experiments, lipid bodies did not accumulate in the cytoplasm under anoxic conditions. Lipid bodies appeared only during 48-h anaerobic incubation of detached coleoptiles in the absence of exogenous glucose, when mitochondria degraded. There was no change either in the double bond index of FAs, or in the qualitative and quantitative composition of FAs during shoot anaerobic incubation. We conclude that neither lipids synthesized under anaerobic conditions nor esterified unsaturated FAs are involved in plant adaptation to anaerobiosis as terminal acceptors of electrons, alternative to molecular oxygen. Lipid biosynthesis under anoxic conditions, which was demonstrated for anoxia-tolerant seedlings of Oryza sativa and Echinochloa phyllopogon in experiments with radioactive precursors, 14C-acetate and 3H-glycerol, is only the manifestation of a turnover of saturated FAs and various classes of lipids, which stabilizes cell membranes under adverse conditions of strict anoxia.__________Translated from Fiziologiya Rastenii, Vol. 52, No. 4, 2005, pp. 540–548.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Generosova, Vartapetian. 相似文献

Shoots of germinating rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings are able to grow under anoxia and to withstand long periods of anoxic treatment. Mitochondria were purified from aerobically germinated and anaerobically treated rice shoots by differential and isopycnic centrifugation and were found to consist of two subpopulations. The mitochondrial subpopulation of higher density was used for further characterization. Ultrastructural studies showed anaerobic mitochondria to be significantly different from aerobic mitochondria, with a matrix of lower density and more developed cristae. Aerobic and anaerobic mitochondria also differed in their specific activities for fumarase and succinate dehydrogenase, which were significantly lower after the anoxic treatment. In vivo labeling of seedlings with l-[35S]methionine and subsequent isolation of the mitochondria indicated that anoxia induced a drastic decrease, but not a total inactivation, of the synthesis of mitochondrial proteins. In organello protein synthesis showed that anaerobic mitochondria were able to synthesize most of the polypeptides synthesized by aerobic mitochondria, although only in the presence of exogenous ATP, as would occur under anoxia. Anaerobic mitochondria, but not aerobic mitochondria, could carry out protein synthesis without a functional respiratory chain. Thus, mitochondrial protein synthesis was found to be potentially functional in the rice shoot under anoxia. 相似文献

The rice ( Oryza saliva L. cv. S-6) cells in anaerobic coleoptiles maintained their ultra-structure. Most of the organelles did not show significant changes as compared to those from aerobic tissues. However, the number of mitochondria was reduced by 34% and they showed enlarged cristae. Most affected were unspecialized micro-bodies: Their number was reduced by 80% under anaerobiosis and both matrix and membrane structure appeared altered. The activities of the unspecialized microbody enzymes, glycolate oxidase (EC 1.1.3.1), urate oxidase (EC 1.7.3.3) and catalase (EC 1.11.1.6) were alt reduced by anoxia. Catalase decreased to the same extent as the number of microbodies. 相似文献

Rice coleoptiles grow under anoxia. When the ultrastructure of anoxic coleoptile cells was examined, it was seen that most organelles maintain their integrity, with the exception of peroxisomes (unspecialized type). The lack of O2 greatly reduced the number of these organelles and altered the ultrastructure of the remaining ones. To examine the effect of O2 on peroxisome development in more detail, coleoptiles grown in air were transferred to N2 and anoxic coleoptiles were transferred to oxygen. Marker enzyme activity was measured in entire coleoptiles as well as in the isolated organelles. As expected, anoxia greatly depressed enzyme activity when imposed from the beginning of the germination process, while it had a lesser effect when imposed for only two days on aerobic seedlings. When coleoptiles were grown constantly under N2, the density of the organelles was 1.216 g/cm3, while the corresponding aerobic organelles showed a buoyant density of 1.241 g/cm3. When transferred to air the anoxic peroxisomes reached the intermediate density of 1.227 g/cm3. The results confirm the particular sensitivity of rice peroxisomes to O2 availability. 相似文献

Summary The effect of exogenous KNO3, the terminal acceptor of electrons in oxygen-free medium, on mitochondrial ultrastructure and on the growth rate of 4-day-old rice coleoptiles under strictly anoxic conditions was studied. Exogenous nitrate (10 mM) did not exert any significant effect on the growth rate of coleoptiles of intact seedlings compared to their growth in KNO3-free medium. Anaerobic incubation of detached coleoptiles in KNO3-free medium for 48 h resulted in the complete destruction of mitochondrial and other cell membranes. In the presence of KNO3, no mitochondrial-membrane destruction was observed even after 48 h anoxia although the mitochondrial ultrastructure was modifed. Cristae were arranged in parallel rows and elongated dumbbell-shaped mitochondria appeared in some cells. The data obtained indicate a protective role of exogenous nitrate as electron acceptors in oxygen-free medium. The results of the present investigation are discussed and compared with reports of either markedly damaging or favorable effects of exogenous nitrate on the growth, metabolism, and energetics of rice and other plants under hypoxic and anoxic conditions. 相似文献

Protein synthesis by rice coleoptiles during prolonged anoxia: implications for glycolysis, growth and energy utilization 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
BACKGROUND AND AIMS: Anoxia-tolerant plant tissues synthesize a number of proteins during anoxia, in addition to the 'classical anaerobic proteins' involved in glycolysis and fermentation. The present study used a model system of rice coleoptile tips to elucidate patterns of protein synthesis in this anoxia-tolerant plant tissue. METHODS: Coleoptile tips 7-11 mm long were excised from intact seedlings exposed to anoxia, or excised from hypoxically pre-treated seedlings and then exposed to anoxia for 72 h. Total proteins or 35S-labelled proteins were extracted, separated using two-dimensional isoelectric focusing/SDS-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis and analysed using mass spectrometry. KEY RESULTS: The coleoptile tips excised after intact seedlings had been exposed to anoxia for 72 h had a similar proteome to tips that were first excised and then exposed to anoxia. After 72 h anoxia, Bowman-Birk trypsin inhibitors and a glycine-rich RNA-binding protein decreased in abundance, whereas a nucleoside diphosphate kinase and several proteins with unknown functions were strongly enhanced. Using [35S]methionine as label, proteins synthesized at high levels in anoxia, and also in aeration, included a nucleoside diphosphate kinase, a glycine-rich RNA-binding protein, a putative elicitor-inducible protein and a putative actin-depolymerizing factor. Proteins synthesized predominately in anoxia included a pyruvate orthophosphate dikinase (PPDK), alcohol dehydrogenase 1 and 2, fructose 1,6-bisphosphate aldolase and a protein of unknown function. CONCLUSION: The induction of PPDK in anoxic rice coleoptiles might, in combination with pyruvate kinase (PK), enable operation of a 'substrate cycle' producing PPi from ATP. Production of PPi would (a) direct energy to crucial transport processes across the tonoplast (i.e. the H+-PPiase); (b) be required for sucrose hydrolysis via sucrose synthase; and (c) enable acceleration of glycolysis, via pyrophosphate:fructose 6-phosphate 1-phosphotransferase (PFP) acting in parallel with phosphofructokinase (PFK), thus enhancing ATP production in anoxic rice coleoptiles; ATP production would need to be increased if there was a substantial requirement for PPi. 相似文献

Ethanol sensitivity of rice and oat coleoptiles 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Kato-Noguchi H 《Physiologia plantarum》2002,115(1):119-124
The ability to avoid the ethanol-induced injury was evaluated in rice ( Oryza sativa L.) and oat ( Avena sativa L.) coleoptiles. The growth of the rice and oat coleoptiles was inhibited by ethanol exogenously applied at concentrations greater than 200 and 30 m M , respectively. At 300 m M ethanol, oat coleoptiles were brown and flaccid but rice coleoptiles did not show any visible symptoms of toxicity. The acetaldehyde level in rice and oat coleoptiles was increased by exogenously applied ethanol and the increases were greater in oat than in rice coleoptiles under aerobic and anaerobic conditions. At 300 m M ethanol, the acetaldehyde concentrations in the rice and oat coleoptiles were 46 and 87 nmol g−1 FW under aerobic conditions, respectively, and 52 and 124 nmol g−1 FW under anaerobic conditions, respectively. The activity of alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH; EC 1.1.1.1) in the direction of ethanol to acetaldehyde was greater in oat than in rice coleoptiles and ADH protein in oat coleoptiles was more induced by exogenously applied ethanol than that in rice coleoptiles. These results suggest that in vivo conversion rate of ethanol to acetaldehyde by ADH is lower in rice than oat coleoptiles, which may be one of the reasons that ethanol sensitivity of rice is much lower than that of oat coleoptiles. The great ability of rice to avoid the ethanol-induced injuries may contribute its anoxia tolerance when glycolysis and ethanolic fermentation replace the Krebs cycle as the main source of energy under anaerobic conditions. 相似文献

Electron-microscopic examination of mitochondrial membrane ultrastructure in detached leaves of four-day-old wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) seedlings incubated under conditions of strict anoxia in the presence of exogenous glucose and cycloheximide or in the absence of these compounds revealed a paradoxical phenomenon: in the absence of exogenous glucose and cycloheximide, even a short-term (15–30 min) anaerobiosis resulted in a pathological destruction of mitochondria (swelling and the loss of cristae); however, a longer uninterrupted anaerobiosis (3–4 h) did not induce further mitochondria degradation but, in contrast, resulted in the recovery of their initial ultrastructure. Irreversible mitochondria degradation was observed only during subsequent still longer leaf anaerobic treatment (24–48 h). When, under conditions of strict anoxia, leaves were fed with glucose to stimulate glycolysis and ethanolic fermentation, we did not observe any signs of early destruction of mitochondrial ultrastructure and their swelling. Blockage of anaerobic protein synthesis with cycloheximide resulted in early destruction and subsequent irreversible degradation of mitochondria without any indications of their structural recovery. Based on the results of the experiments, we concluded that cell energy metabolism controlled byboth the presence of utilizable carbohydrates and also by the induction of anaerobic protein synthesis played a key role during early mitochondria destruction under extreme conditions of anaerobic stress, their subsequent recovery, and irreversible degradation during continuous long-term strict anoxia. 相似文献

Ultrastructure of wheat coleoptile mitochondria at short-term anoxia and post-anoxia 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Abstract. Mitochondrial ultrastructure in the cells of coleoptiles of 4 d seedlings was investigated under conditions of a 1.5, 3, and 36 h anoxia and with subsequent transfer of the seedlings, after a 1.5 h anoxia, from the anaerobic into an aerobic medium. Even with short-term anoxia (1.5 h) destructive changes take place in the ultrastructure of mitochondria, which are reversible not only following the transfer of these seedlings from the anaerobic into aerobic conditions, but also with their continued maintenance under strict anoxia. Irreversible changes in the ultrastructure of mitochondria were seen only with a more prologed (36 h and longer) anoxia. The observed phenomena are discussed from the viewpoint of energy provision of the seedling cells in anoxia and post-anoxia. 相似文献

Incubation of 3-d-old seedlings of Oryza sativa L. cv Arborio under anaerobic conditions, leads to a large increase in the titer of free putrescine while aerobic incubation causes a slight decrease. After 2 days, the putrescine level is about 2.5 times greater without oxygen than in air. The rice coleoptile also accumulates a large amount of bound putrescine and, to a lesser extent, spermidine and spermine (mainly as acid-soluble conjugates). Accumulation of conjugates in the roots is severely inhibited by the anaerobic treatment. Feeding experiments with labeled amino acids showed that anoxia stimulates the release of 14CO2 from tissues fed with [14C]arginine and that arginine is the precursor in putrescine biosynthesis. After 2 d of anoxia, the activity of arginine decarboxylase was 42% and 89% greater in coleoptile and root, respectively, than in the aerobic condition. The causes of the differences in polyamine metabolism in anoxic coleoptiles and roots are discussed. 相似文献

Ultrastructural changes of organelles in coleoptile cells during anaerobic germination of rice seeds
Summary Ultrastructural changes of organelles, especially those of mitochondria in rice seedlings germinated under strictly anaerobic conditions were investigated.The embryos of dry seeds had slightly modified mitochondria, characterized by an electron transparent matrix with few cristae and electron opaque patches. These mitochondria developed normally for 48 hours irrespective of whether oxygen was present or not. However, after 72 hours' germination under anaerobic conditions vesiculation of the cristae developed and progressed greatly for the subsequent 24 hours and most of the spaces in the mitochondrion became occupied with vacuolated cristae. Vesiculation seemed to be the effect of cessation of energy supply from the mitochondria themselves.Ultrastructural changes of other organelles such as the plastids and endoplasmic reticulum were also observed after 96 hours under anaerobic conditions. 相似文献

Root tips (10-millimeter length) were excised from hypoxically pretreated (HPT, 4% [v/v] oxygen at 25°C for 16 hours) or nonhypoxically pretreated (NHPT, 40% [v/v] oxygen) maize (Zea mays) plants, and their rates of respiration were compared by respirometry under aerobic and anaerobic conditions with exogenous glucose. The respiratory quotient under aerobic conditions with 50 millimolar glucose was approximately 1.0, which is consistent with glucose or other hexose sugars being utilized as the predominant carbon source in glycolysis. Under strictly anaerobic conditions (anoxia), glycolysis was accelerated appreciably in both HPT and NHPT root tips, but the rate of anaerobic respiration quickly declined in NHPT roots. [U-14C]Glucose supplied under anaerobic conditions was taken up and respired by HPT root tips up to five times more rapidly than by NHPT roots. When anaerobic ethanol production was measured with excised root tips in 50 millimolar glucose, HPT tissues consistently produced ethanol more rapidly than NHPT tissues. These data suggest that a period of low oxygen partial pressure is necessary to permit adequate acclimation of the root tip of maize to subsequent anoxia, resulting in more rapid rates of fermentation and generation of ATP. 相似文献

Oxygen deprivation limits the energy available for cellular processes and yet no comprehensive ATP budget has been reported for any plant species under O(2) deprivation, including Oryza sativa. Using 3-d-old coleoptiles of a cultivar of O. sativa tolerant to flooding at germination, (i) rates of ATP regeneration in coleoptiles grown under normoxia (aerated solution), hypoxia (3% O(2)), and anoxia (N(2)) and (ii) rates of synthesis of proteins, lipids, nucleic acids, and cell walls, as well as K(+) transport, were determined. Based on published bioenergetics data, the cost of synthesizing each class of polymer and the proportion of available ATP allocated to each process were then compared. Protein synthesis consumed the largest proportion of ATP synthesized under all three oxygen regimes, with the proportion of ATP allocated to protein synthesis in anoxia (52%) more than double that in normoxic coleoptiles (19%). Energy allocation to cell wall synthesis was undiminished in hypoxia, consistent with preferential elongation typical of submerged coleoptiles. Lipid synthesis was also conserved strongly in O(2) deficits, suggesting that membrane integrity was maintained under anoxia, thus allowing K(+) to be retained within coleoptile cells. Rates of protein synthesis in coleoptiles from rice cultivars with contrasting tolerance to oxygen deficits (including mutants deficient in fermentative enzymes) confirmed that synthesis and turnover of proteins always accounted for most of the ATP consumed under anoxia. It is concluded that successful establishment of rice seedlings under water is largely due to the capacity of coleoptiles to allocate energy to vital processes, particularly protein synthesis. 相似文献
