The effects of red and far red illuminations were studied in spores of the dark germinating Pteridium aquilinum and that of the light dependently germinating Dryopteris filix-mas. Proteins were analysed by electrophoresis according to their molecular weights. The isoesterases were separated by gel electrofocusing. In both species we found two newly synthesized protein bands, probably controlled by the presence of active phytochrome. One of these seems to be identical, the other is different in the two species. Phytochrome control was also detected in the esterase isoenzyme pattern. 相似文献

The morphological development of Sinningia speciosa plants that were exposed to supplementary far red light was very different from that of plants receiving dark nights. After several nights of such irradiation, stems and petioles were elongated, petioles were angulated, leaf blade expansion was inhibited, plants were chlorotic and the accumulation of shoot dry weight was retarded. Red reversibility of the morphological changes potentiated by far red light indicated control by the phytochrome system. A high PFR level during the last half of the night inhibited stem elongation and promoted leaf blade expansion, but both of these processes were hardly affected by the PFR level during the first half of the night. Thus sensitivity to PFR was cyclic. The interpretation of our experiments was complicated by quantitative morphological differences resulting from long, as compared to short, far red irradiations. 相似文献

Linear electron transport depends on balanced excitation of photosystem I and II. Far‐red light preferentially excites photosystem I (PSI) and can enhance the photosynthetic efficiency when combined with light that over‐excites photosystem II (PSII). The efficiency of different wavelengths of far‐red light exciting PSI was quantified by measuring the change in quantum yield of PSII (Φ PSII) of lettuce ( Lactuca sativa) under red/blue light with narrowband far‐red light added (from 678 to 752 nm, obtained using laser diodes). The Φ PSII of lettuce increased with increasing wavelengths of added light from 678 to 703 nm, indicating longer wavelengths within this region are increasingly used more efficiently by PSI than by PSII. Adding 721 nm light resulted in similar Φ PSII as adding 703 nm light, but Φ PSII tended to decrease as wavelength increased from 721 to 731 nm, likely due to decreasing absorptance and low photon energy. Adding 752 nm light did not affect Φ PSII. Leaf chlorophyll fluorescence light response measurements showed lettuce had higher Φ PSII under halogen light (rich in far‐red) than under red/blue light (which over‐excites PSII). Far‐red light is more photosynthetically active than commonly believed, because of its synergistic interaction with light of shorter wavelengths. 相似文献

Summary A simplified extraction procedure was used to study the effect of red and far-red light (683 and 712 nm) on the incorporation of 32P and on the distribution pattern of various phosphate fractions in 8 min-experiments under nitrogen. Nitrogen was used to avoid competition for energy-rich phosphate bonds between CO 2-fixation and the formation of polyphosphates. The total incorporation of 32P was higher in red than in far-red light, and so was the percentage of the acidsoluble organic phosphate. In the absence of oxygen the incorporation in the dark was rather low and mainly confined to orthophosphate. The ratio between the amount of labelling of polyphosphates and that of acid-soluble organic phosphates was higher in far-red light and in the dark than in red light.DCMU, even in a nitrogen atmosphere, produced a servre inhibition in red light. This inhibition increased with increasing light intensity. The labelling of organic phosphates was more affected than that of polyphosphates, while orthophosphate incorporation was least inhibited. In far-red light, DCMU exerted little influence except at a rather high light intensity, showing that cyclic photophosphorylation was proceeding alone.Antimycin A, on the other hand, was almost ineffective in strong red light, but produced a serious inhibition in far-red light. In red light of medium intensity, antimycin effected some inhibition, although much less than DCMU. Under these conditions the effect of the two inhibitors was additive when they were applied together. Labelling of polyphosphates was more sensitive to antimycin A than labelling of acid-soluble organic phosphates.It may be concluded from the data presented that far-red light produces conditions for pure cyclic photophosphorylation, whereas a large proportion of the photophosphorylation taking place in red light in the absence of CO 2 and exogenous oxygen might be regarded as pseudocyclic. The distribution pattern of the phosphorylated fractions under the different conditions suggests that polyphosphate formation in the light is favoured but not exclusively effected by cyclic photophosphorylation.

Irradiation of phytochrome solutions with a high-intensity mixed red and far red light source causes measurable absorbancy increases at 543 nm. Evidence is presented that these absorbancy increases are caused by accumulation of intermediates on the P R to P FR pathway with relatively slow thermal decay constants. Kinetic analysis of the decay signals is consistent with the interpretation that the signals represent simultaneous independent and parallel decay of 2 species by first order kinetics to P FR. If actinic light intensity is kept constant and exposure time changed, the relative amounts of the 2 components change, with proportionately more of the rapidly decaying species present following short exposure times. If the amount of the intermediates is decreased by decreasing actinic light intensity at constant exposure time, however, the relative amounts of the 2 remain constant. The Q 10 for intermediate decay following illumination is approximately 2.0, while that for complete phototransformation of the pigment in either direction is very close to 1.0. Incomplete transformation of P R to P FR, caused by overlapping absorption of the 2 forms, is shown by the presence of intermediates (indicating cycling of the pigment) in continuous red light. Such intermediates do not appear in continuous far red, indicating a rate of pigment cycling below detection by the available instrumentation. 相似文献

Shaded leaves in plant canopies receive a higher proportion of far red relative to red light than is received by unshaded leaves. Brief end-of-day irradiations with red or far red light, acting through the phytochrome system, reversibly control morphological development of tobacco plants. Leaves that received far red light for 5 minutes at the end of each day during development were longer and narrower than those that received end-of-day red light. The far red treated leaves weighed less, had fewer stomata, and had less chlorophyll per unit area of leaf. Net CO 2 assimilation rates did not differ significantly between red- and far red-treated leaves on an area basis; however, the far red-treated leaves assimilated significantly more CO 2 on a leaf weight basis. 相似文献

Flavonoid synthesis in cell suspension cultures of parsley ( Petroselinum hortense Hoffm.) occurs only after irradiation with ultraviolet light (UV), mainly from the UV-B (280–320 nm) spectral range. However, it is also controlled by phytochrome. A P fr/P tot ratio of approximately 20% is sufficient for a maximum phytochrome response as induced by pulse irradiation. Continuous red and far red light, as well as blue light, given after UV, are more effective than pulse irradiations. The response to blue light is considerably greater than that to red and far red light. Continuous red and blue light treatments can be substituted for by multiple pulses and can thus probably be ascribed to a multible induction effect. Continuous irradiations with red, far red and blue light also increase the UV-induced flavonoid synthesis if given before UV. The data indicate that besides phytochrome a separate blue light photoreceptor is involved in the regulation of the UV-induced flavonoid synthesis. This blue light receptor seems to require the presence of P fr in order to be fully effective.Abbreviations HIR

The flash-induced electrochromic absorbance change ( A
515) was measured in leaves of higher plants in the absence and presence of continuous monochromatic background illumination of different intensities and wavelengths. The variation of the amplitude of A
515 in background light was used to estimate the steady-state turnover time of the electron transport. In red light we obtained about 5 msec which was accounted for by the turnover of the linear electron transport. With far red background illumination or in the presence of the photosystem 2 inhibitor, DCMU, the steady-state turnover time tentatively assigned to photosystem 1 cyclic electron transport was much larger (100 msec).Increasing the intensity of background illumination with far red light gradually diminished the slow rise of A
515 in parallel with suppression of the initial rise generated by photosystem 1. At high intensities of the red light, however, while A
515 was attenuated, the slow rise was not eliminated and its proportion relative to the initial rise did not vary appreciably. 相似文献

This study developed a lighting system that produces an approximate spectral irradiance (SI) of ground level sunlight in the wavelength range of 385–910 nm (GLS 385–910) using 547 light‐emitting diodes (LEDs) with 32 different peak wavelengths. The produced SI can be modified over an arbitrary wavelength band. The SI at the light outlet reached up to 1/2 of the GLS 385–910 of a sunny April day, although the produced SI deviated from the GLS 385–910 at some wavelengths. For subsequent experiments, the reference SI was defined as 1/4 GLS 385–910 of a sunny April day. The SI produced from the lighting system was adjusted to approximate the reference SI. The ratios of the produced SI and the reference SI were within 0.72–1.28. As an application of the lighting system for biological studies, the transmitted SI of a green leaf of perilla ( Perilla frutescens L.) was investigated. The curve shape of the transmitted SI, which had characteristically low transmission percentages of blue and red light, reflected the characteristics of the absorption spectra of chlorophylls. The lighting system is therefore potentially beneficial for use in diagnosing physiological conditions of plant leaves, although its application is not limited to plant physiological studies.

The entrainability of Lemna perpusilla CO 2 output by periodic 15 minute red (R) and far red (F) illuminations was tested in low nitrate medium. R every 8 hour, symbolized R/R/R, gives a flat output (no entrainment) as does F/F/F. However, R/—/— (R every 24 hour) entrains rapidly, and F/—/— does so as well, in a similar manner. The effects of R/R/— and F/F/— also resemble each other closely. Entrainment by R/F/F or R/R/F is rapid and indifferent to order of presentation, e.g., R/F/F and F/R/F lead to the same steady state. Typical phytochrome reversals occur, e.g., R,F/F/F holds output flat, while F,R/F/F entrains in the manner of R/F/F. Blue (B) light acts like R in schedules such as B/F/F but like F in schedules such as B/R/R. In all schedules studied, the zeitgeber (primary synchronizer) appears to be the sharpest transition from a low to a high level of far red-absorbing phytochrome that occurs with a 24-hr periodicity. Thus in entrainment, and by inference in photoperiodic timing, the level of far red-absorbing phytochrome at any time may be less significant than the succession of levels of which it is a part, a conclusion that implies the existence of a “scanning” mechanism that compares levels of far red-absorbing phytochrome at various times of day. 相似文献

Phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL; EC 4.3.1.5.) induction in cotyledons from 96-h dark-grown Lycopersicon esculentum Mill. was studied in response to continuous light and hourly light pulses (blue, red, far red). The increases of PAL promoted by blue and red pulses are reversed completely by immediately following 758 nm irradiations. The response to continuous red light could be substituted for by hourly 6-min red light pulses. The effect of continuous red treatments is mainly due to a multiple induction effect of phytochrome. In contrast to red light, hourly light pulses with far red and blue, light can only partially substitute for continuous irradiation. The continuous blue response could be due to a combination of a multiple induction response and of a high irradiance response of phytochrome. The continuous far red response, could represent a high irradiance response of phytochrome. Dichromatic irradiations indicate that phytochrome is the photoreceptor controlling the light response (PAL) in tomato seedlings.Abbreviations Norflurazon

When Sinningia plants were grown with fluorescent light of photosynthetic intensity for 8 hours each day, stems became abnormally elongated when the P FR level was lowered by far red light given during the last half of several consecutive nights. However, plants were even taller if the source also emitted red light. Elongation was independent of the red/far red energy ratio if it was lower than one, but dependent upon irradiance at all values tested. Elongation of plants irradiated by a well filtered far red source was presumed to be limited by a shortage of respiratory substrate. Enhancement by radiation shorter than 700 mμ was attributed to promotion of processes leading to increased substrate supply. Protochlorophyllide was regarded as the primary photoreceptor. Its photoreduction promoted chlorophyll synthesis which, in turn, increased photosynthetic capacity and thus substrate supply. 相似文献

Using glass filters that transmit various spectral bands and different intensities of natural daylight, experiments with achenes of lettuce cv. Vanquard were performed. Germination during prolonged treatment depended both on the far red/red radiation ratio and on the irradiance. The promotive effect of red radiation present in natural light prevailed at low irradiances, the inhibitory effect of far red radiation at high irradiances. The dormancy imposed by prolonged white light of high intensity can be cancelled by transferring the achenes to darkness or to diffuse weak white light. The effects are obviously of the high irradiance response type; they are exerted by the same mechanism that causes seed dormancy under leaf canopies. Some considerations on the ecological significance of seed behaviour are given.Abbreviations FR

Summary The mode of phytochrome control of elongation growth was studied in fully-green strawberry ( Fragaria x Ananassa Duch.) plants. Petiole growth showed two distinct types of response to light. In one, the end-of-day response, petioles were lengthened by low-intensity far-red irradiation for 1 h immediately following the 8 h photoperiod. The response was little or no greater with prolonged exposure and less when the start of far-red was delayed. It was already evident in the first leaf to emerge after treatment began. With the development of successive leaves a second, photoperiodic, type of response appeared, in which petioles lengthened following only prolonged exposure to red, far-red, mixtures of the two, or tungsten lighting, all at low levels of intensity. As with the inhibition of flowering in previous experiments, irradiation with red light during the second half of the otherwise long dark period gave the greatest response.Abbreviations and Symbols FR

L-Leucine uptake and incorporation in the blue-green alga Anacystisnidulans were measured during illumination with monochromaticlight of 630 and 717 nm. With near as well as far red light,an enhanced uptake of 14C-L-leucine was observed. In far redlight, the leucine uptake depended on light intensity and pHvalue. After the first few minutes, the uptake remained constantfor more than one hour. The rate of uptake in light was thesame in air as in nitrogen. The incorporation of 14C-leucinein the soluble fraction decreased in the presence of chloramphenicolwhich prevents protein synthesis. In far red light, its incorporationwas insensitive to DCMU (5 ? 10 6 M) but was depressedby uncouplers like CCCP or desaspidin. These effects are takenas evidence that leucine incorporation under the conditionsused is dependent on photosystem I reactions and cyclic photophosphorylation.DBMIB and KCN in high concentrations decrease the leucine incorporationin far red light and indicate that plastoquinone and plastocyaninare members of the cyclic electron flow also in intact cellsof Anacystis. Antimycin A has no inhibitory effect. The inhibitionby other less specific inhibitors like salicylaldoxime, desaspidinand DSPD is discussed. (Received August 19, 1978; ) 相似文献

Seedlings of Celosia plumosa under prolonged irradiation with far red light synthesize chlorophyll α and betaxanthin. Levulinic acid and 2,4-dinitrophenol, inhibitors of chlorophyll synthesis and cyclic photophosphorylation respectively, reduce betaxanthin synthesis. Pigment formation is also inhibited by actinomycin- D and puromycin, but is unaffected by 3-(3,4-dichlorophenyl)-1,1-dimethylurea, an inhibitor of noncyclic photophosphorylation. These findings are evidence of the involvement of photosynthesis through cyclic photophosphorylation, in the far red HER associated with betaxanthin synthesis. Under continuous far red seedlings of Amaranthus tricolor synthesize only chlorophyll α. Lack of betacyanin formation is ascribed to the inactive status of the genes involved in the pigment synthesis. 相似文献

Omitting the far‐red in LED lighting for bioreactors is inexplicable because it affects photosynthetic efficiency and photomorphogenetic activity. Therefore, this work compares three light sources (fluorescent—white light (WL), and LED: blue + red—BRL and blue + red + far‐red—BRFRL) for cultures of Chlorella vulgaris. Metabolic activity was determined by isothermal calorimetry. Changes in the chemical composition of biomass were examined by spectrofluorimetry and Raman spectroscopy. Maximum quantum yield of photosystem II was determined on the basis of chlorophyll a fluorescence parameters. The algae grown under BRL produced significantly more thermal energy than those cultured under BRFRL and WL. The Raman spectra of cultures showed characteristic bands for carotenoids, chlorophyll, phenolics, lipids, aliphatic carbohydrates, pectins, and disaccharides. According to the cluster analysis, the chemical composition of cultures grown under BRL and BRFRL was very similar, whereas the WL represented a distinct group. BRL and BRFRL stimulated the biosynthesis of an unidentified compound(s) with fluorescence maximum at 614 nm. At the beginning of the cultivation, photosystem II had very weak photochemical activity. Under BRFRL, ratios of Fv/Fm reached the maximum after 4 days, whereas under BRL and WL, after 6 days of cultivation. The results point to the favorable influence of the far‐red on the metabolism of microalgae. 相似文献

Red light, which produces the physiologically active form of phytochrome (Pfr), inhibited epicotyl elongation in intact dark-grown Alaska pea seedlings. This red light response was detectable 3 hours after the light treatment and became pronounced after 5 hours. The growth inhibition was completely reversed by far red light applied immediately after the red or by pretreatment of the seedlings with the plant hormone gibberellin A 3. 相似文献

1. The responses of the pupil of a nocturnal gecko ( Gekko gekko) to external light stimulus were studied. 2. The responses of the pupil are determined by light entering the pupil and not by light acting directly on the iris. 3. The responses of the pupil are very uniform in sensitivity including spectral sensitivity for light coming in different directions to the eye. 4. The possible change in area of the pupil is more than 300-fold and probably represents an effort to shield the pure rod retina from saturating light intensities. 5. The pupil continues to contract sharply for changes in external light intensity which give retinal illuminations corresponding to 10 6 quanta/sec. striking a retinal rod. 6. There is a large degree of spatial summation of the response; circular external light fields subtending 5 and 140° giving the same illumination at the pupil give approximately the same pupil response. 7. The spectral sensitivity curve agrees with the absorption curve of an extracted pigment from a closely related gecko described by Crescitelli in the followig paper. It is similar to the human scotopic curve but its maximum is displaced about 20 to 30 mµ towards the red end of the spectrum. The fall in sensitivity towards the red end of the spectrum is described by the equation See PDF for Equation 相似文献

Absorbance changes Δ A
810 were measured in pea ( Pisum sativum L., cv. Premium) leaves to track redox transients of chlorophyll P700 during and after irradiation with far red (FR) light
under various preillumination conditions in the absence and presence of inhibitors and protonophorous uncoupler of photosynthetic
electron transport. It was shown that cyclic electron transport (CET) in chloroplasts of pea leaves operates at its highest
rate after preillumination of leaves with white light and is strongly suppressed after preillumination with FR light. The
FR light-induced suppression was partly released during prolonged dark adaptation. Upon FR illumination of dark-adapted leaves,
the induction of CET was observed, during which CET activity increased to the peak from the low level and then decreased gradually.
The kinetics of P700 oxidation induced by FR light of various intensities in leaves preilluminated with white light were fit
to empirical sigmoid curves containing two variables. In leaves treated with a protonophore FCCP, the amplitude of FR light-induced
changes Δ A
810 was strongly suppressed, indicating that the rate of CET is controlled by the pH gradient across the thylakoid membrane. 相似文献
