Summary Hypocotyls of detached stems standing in culture solution produced adventitious roots sooner than did petioles of detached primary leaves. An auxin, probably indol-3-ylacetic acid, appeared in the solutions before the hypocotyls or petioles produced roots. After attaining a maximum, the amounts of auxin in the solutions decreased as fewer roots were formed. Two cytokinins were found in the culture solutions; one had a similar Rf to zeatin, the other ran more slowly on chromatograms. The amounts of cytokinin in the solutions were associated with root formation. Stems soon died unless their hypocotyls formed roots, but the primary leaves survived without roots forming provided a callus formed on the petiole. Hence adventitious roots, or callus tissues, may have produced cytokinins that replaced those produced by the original roots, found in sap exuded from the stem stumps, and were essential for survival of the stems and leaves. 相似文献

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) play an important role in NaCl stress. Plants tolerant to NaCl stress may evolve certain strategies to remove these ROS, thus reducing their toxic effects. Therefore, the expression patterns of the gene family encoding glutathione reductase (GR, EC 1.6.4.2) were analyzed in roots of etiolated rice (Oryza sativa L.) seedlings in response to NaCl stress. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR was applied to quantify the mRNA levels for one cytosolic (OsGR2) and two chloroplastic (OsGR1 and OsGR3) isoforms of glutathione reductase identified in the rice genome. The expression of OsGR2 and OsGR3 but not OsGR1 was increased in rice roots treated with 150 mM NaCl. The Rab16A is an abscisic acid (ABA)-responsive rice gene. Increasing concentrations of ABA, from 1 to 12 μM, progressively increased the expression of OsRab16A in rice roots. In the present study, the ABA level was judged by the expression of OsRab16A in rice roots. Treatment with 150 mM NaCl induced the expression of OsRab16A, and the expression increased with increasing concentrations of ABA, which suggests that ABA may be involved in this response in rice roots. In fact, exogenous application of ABA enhanced the expression of OsGR2 and OsGR3 in rice roots. On inhibiting ABA accumulation with sodium tungstate (Tu), an inhibitor of ABA biosynthesis, the expression of OsGR2 and OsGR3 was still induced by NaCl; therefore, NaCl-triggered expression of OsGR2 and OsGR3 in rice roots is not mediated by accumulation of ABA. However, NaCl treatment could induce H2O2 production in rice roots, and H2O2 treatment resulted in enhanced OsGR2 and OsGR3 induction. On inhibiting the NaCl-induced accumulation of H2O2 with diphenylene iodonium, the expression of OsGR2 and OsGR3 was also suppressed. Moreover, the increase in H2O2 level was prior to the induction of OsGR2 and OsGR3 in NaCl-treated rice roots. Thus, H2O2, but not ABA, is involved in regulation of OsGR2 and OsGR3 expression in NaCl-treated rice roots. 相似文献

DAF (2,7-diaminofluorene)-peroxidases were the principal oxidative system in roots and rhizosphere of lucerne. The expression of these enzymes was stimulated by mycorrhiza as well as by anthracene (500 mg kg–1 added to the growth medium). Inversely, infection by mycorrhizal fungi repressed laccase activities. Electrophoretic analysis of the DAF-peroxidases revealed similar isoenzyme patterns for all treatments but in presence of anthracene some of the isoenzymes had more intensive bands. 相似文献

Spatial and temporal dynamics of the microbial community structure in the rhizosphere of cluster roots of white lupin (Lupinus albus L.) 总被引:4,自引:3,他引:1

White lupin was grown in a quartz sand–soil mix with poorly available Ca phosphate. The plants were harvested on days 21, 35 and 51 and DNA was extracted from the non-cluster roots, the young, mature and senescent cluster roots with adhering soil. Bacterial community structure was examined by PCR-DGGE of 16S rDNA, digitisation of the band patterns and multivariate analyses. In all root zones the bacterial community structure changed with plant age. The communities in the rhizosphere of the non-cluster roots were always different from those of the cluster roots. The bacterial communities of the cluster roots were cluster age and plant age dependent. The differences in bacterial community structure between the cluster root age classes were significant on days 35 and day 51 but not on d 21. A separate experiment, in which root exudates and samples for PCR-DGGE were collected simultaneously, showed that both bacterial and eukaryotic (18S rDNA) community structures change with organic acid exudation. While eukaryotic community structure of the cluster roots was correlated with citric acid exudation, bacterial community structure was correlated with cis-acconitic, citric and malic acid exudation. 相似文献

Studies were carried out on the utilization of different sugars (glucose, fructose, arabinose, xylose, sucrose) and organic acids (acetic, citric, fumaric, propionic, succinic) by fast and slow growing bacteria isolated from the roots of pine seedlings (P. silvestris L.) inoculated with root-free, rhizosphere and mycorrhizosphere soil from nursery and mature pine forest. Sucrose among sugars and propionic acid among organic acids were the less frequently utilized compounds. Sugars were better carbon sources than organic acids. Proportion of isolates utilizing respective sugars or organic acids was, in general, significantly higher among fast growing bacteria as compared with slow growing ones. No significant differences in number of strains assimilating the appropiate sugars depending on their original habitat or kind of soil were observed. Such differences were noted for utilization of some organic acids. 3-factor ANOVA confirmed that the growth speed of bacteria at the moment of their isolation had the strongest effect on utilization of the compounds studied. 相似文献

Protein turnover is generally regarded as one of the most important maintenance processes in plants in terms of energy requirements. In this study, the contribution of protein turnover to the respiratory costs for maintenance in the roots of two grass species, the fast-growing D. actylis glomerata L. and the slow-growing F. estuca ovina L., is evaluated. Plants were grown under controlled-environment conditions in a nutrient solution to which NO(3)- was added at a relative addition rate of 0.2 and 0.1 mol N mol(-1) N already present in the plant d(-1) for D. glomerata and F. ovina, respectively, so as to obtain a steady exponential growth rate close to the plants' maximum relative growth rate. Pulse-chase labelling with (14)C-leucine was used to determine the rate of protein turnover in the grass roots. The rate of turnover of the total protein pool did not differ significantly between the two species. The protein degradation constant in D. glomerata and F. ovina was 0.156 and 0.116 g protein g(-1) protein d(-1), respectively, which corresponds with a total protein half-life of 4 d and 6 d. Assuming specific respiratory costs for protein turnover of 148 mmol ATP g(-1) protein, the estimated respiratory costs for protein turnover in the roots were 2.8 and 2.4 mmol ATP g(-1) root DM d(-1) in D. glomerata and F. ovina, respectively. Both the fast- and the slow-growing grass spent between 22-30% of their daily ATP production for maintenance on protein turnover, which corresponds to 11-15% of the total root ATP production per day. Note that the data presented in this abstract are based on the assumption that 50% recycling of the (14)C-labelled leucine took place in the roots of both grass species. 相似文献

Tagetes minuta L, syn.T. glandulifera Schrank grows wild in western Himalaya and is one of the important source of essential oils. The crop has been domesticated by our Institute not only in sub-temperate but also in subtropical zones and farmers have opted Tagetes minuta as an essential oil crop in their cropping system. Four cropping systems have been evolved based on variable sowing and harvesting times yielding varying quality of essential oil. All the four crop practices can be practised in sub-temperate regions while one crop practice is recommended for subtropical regions. Tagetes oil contains three major constituents of monoterpene ketones namely ocimenones E&Z, tagetones E&Z and dihydrotagetone and a hydrocarbon ocimene which are important base materials for synthesizing new aroma molecules.Tagetes oil of desired constituents can be produced by adopting selective crop practice based on experimental findings of present investigation. Ocimene rich crop can be harvested in winter (December–January), dihydrotagetone rich crop in autumn (October–November), tagetone rich crop in summer (June) and ocimenone rich crop can be harvested in short duration autumn–winter (December–January) and summer crops. 相似文献

The reaction of metmyoglobin with H2O2 was investigated in a pH range between 8.5 and 6.0 with the aid of stopped flow-rapid scan and rapid freezing-EPR techniques. Singular value decomposition analyses of the stopped flow data at pH 8.5 revealed that a spectral species previously unknown accumulated during the reaction and exhibited a Soret absorption maximum at >/=423 nm. In the EPR experiments, the new species exhibited a set of g values at 2.32, 2.19, and 1.94, indicating that the species was assignable to a ferric hydroperoxy (Fe(III)[O-O-H]-) compound. In contrast, the hydroperoxy compound scarcely accumulated in the reaction at pH 6.0, and the dominant intermediate species accumulated was compound I, which was derived from the oxygen-oxygen bond cleavage of the hydroperoxy compound. The accumulated amount of the hydroperoxy compound relative to compound I showed a pH dependence with an apparent pKa (pKaapp) from 6.95 to 7.27 depending on the metmyoglobins examined. This variation in pKaapp paralleled that in pKa of the acid-alkaline transition (pKaAB) of metmyoglobins, suggesting that the accumulation of hydroperoxy compound is controlled by the distal histidine. We propose that the H2O2 activation by metmyoglobin is promoted at the acidic condition due to the imidazolium form of the distal histidine, and we further propose that the controlled protonation state of the distal histidine is important for the facile O-O bond cleavage in heme peroxidases. 相似文献

Comparative study about the salt-induced oxidative stress and lipid composition has been realised in primary root tissues
for two varieties of maize (Zea mays L.) in order to evaluate their responses to salt stress. The root growth, root water content (WC), hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) generation, lipid peroxidation, membrane stability index and the changes in the profile of fatty acids composition were
investigated. Salinity impacts in term of root growth, water content, H2O2 generation, lipid peroxidation and membrane destabilisation were more pronounced in primary roots of Aristo than in those of Arper indicating more sensitivity of the first variety. It was confirmed by gas chromatography that the composition of fatty acids
in roots of both varieties was constituted mainly by 16:0 and 18:0 as major saturated fatty acids and 18:1ω9, 18:2ω6 and 18:3ω3
as major unsaturated fatty acids. Total lipid extracts from the roots of both varieties showed that the lipid saturation level
increased under salt stress, notwithstanding the increased proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids. The changes in lipid
saturation being predominantly due to decreases in oleic acid (18:1ω9) and increases in palmitic acid (16:0). However, Arper root extracts contained a lower proportion of saturated lipids than Aristo. The enhanced proportion of highly polyunsaturated fatty acids especially linolenic and eicosapentaenoic acids was considered
to be the characteristic of the relatively salt tolerance in Arper roots. 相似文献

The effect of ammonium sulphate application on the bulk and rhizosphere soil chemistry, elemental concentration of living fine roots (<2 mm in diameter), amounts of living and dead fine roots, root length density and specific root length density were investigated in a 28 year old Norway spruce stand in SW Sweden. The treatments started in 1988. Core samples of the LFH layer and mineral soil layers were sampled in control (C) and ammonium sulphate (NS) treatment plots in 1988, 1989 and 1990. Soil pH and NO3-S and SO4-S, Al, Ca, Mg, Mn and K concentrations were measured for both the bulk soil and rhizosphere soil.The pH-values of the bulk and rhizosphere soil decreased in 1989 and 1990 in NS plots compared to control plots, while the SO4-S concentration increased. The Ca, Mg and K concentration increased in the NS treatment in almost all layers in the bulk and the rhizosphere soil. Ammonium ions may have replaced these elements in the soil organic matter. The NS treatment reduced Mg concentration in fine roots in all layers in 1990. The Al concentrations in the rhizosphere and bulk soil were higher in NS plots in all layers, except at 0–10 cm depth, both in 1989 and 1990. The Al content of living fine roots was higher in NS plots than C plots but the differences were not significant. The NS addition did not affect the P and K contents of fine roots in any soil layer, but the S concentrations of fine roots were significantly higher in NS plots in 1989 and 1990. The fine root necromass was higher in NS than in C in 1990, in the LFH layer, indicating a gradual decrease in the vitality of the fine roots. It was suggested that the NS treatment resulted in displacement of Mg and K from exchange sites in the LFH layer leading to leaching of these cations to the mineral soil. Further application of ammonium sulphate may damage the fine roots and consequently adversely affect the water and nutrient uptake of root systems. 相似文献

Plant species differ in nutrient uptake efficiency. With a pot experiment, we evaluated potassium (K) uptake efficiency of maize (Zea mays L.), wheat (Triticum aestivum L.), and sugar beet (Beta vulgaris L.) grown on a low-K soil. Sugar beet and wheat maintained higher shoot K concentrations, indicating higher K uptake efficiency. Wheat acquired more K because of a greater root length to shoot dry weight ratio. Sugar beet accumulated more shoot K as a result of a 3- to 4-fold higher K influx as compared to wheat and maize, respectively. Nutrient uptake model NST 3.0 closely predicted K influx when 250 mg K kg?1 were added to the soil, but under-predicted K influx under low K supply. Sensitivity analysis showed that increasing soil solution K concentration (CLi) by a factor of 1.6–3.5 or buffer power (b) 10- to 50-fold resulted in 100% prediction of K influx. When both maximum influx (Imax) and b were increased by a factor of 2.5 in maize and wheat and 25 in sugar beet, the model could predict measured K influx 100%. In general, the parameter changes affected mostly calculated K influx of root hairs, demonstrating their possible important role in plant K efficiency. 相似文献

A ferric-EDTA complex, prepared directly from FeCl3 or from an oxidized ferrous salt, reacts with H2O2 to form hydroxyl radicals (.OH), which degrade deoxyribose and benzoate with the release of thiobarbituric acid-reactive material, hydroxylate benzoate to form fluorescent dihydroxy products and react with 5,5-dimethylpyrrolidine N-oxide (DMPO) to form a DMPO-OH adduct. Degradation of deoxyribose and benzoate and the hydroxylation of benzoate are substantially inhibited by superoxide dismutase and .OH-radical scavengers such as formate, thiourea and mannitol. Inhibition by the enzyme superoxide dismutase implies that the reduction of the ferric-EDTA complex for participation in the Fenton reaction is superoxide-(O2.-)-dependent, and not H2O2-dependent as frequently implied. When ferric-bipyridyl complex at a molar ratio of 1:4 is substituted for ferric-EDTA complex (molar ratio 1:1) and the same experiments are conducted, oxidant damage is low and deoxyribose and benzoate degradation were poorly if at all inhibited by superoxide dismutase and .OH-radical scavengers. Benzoate hydroxylation, although weak, was, however, more effectively inhibited by superoxide dismutase and .OH-radical scavengers, implicating some role for .OH. The iron-bipyridyl complex had available iron-binding capacity and therefore would not allow iron to remain bound to buffer or detector molecules. Most .OH radicals produced by the iron-bipyridyl complex and H2O2 are likely to damage the bipyridyl molecules first, with few reacting in free solution with the detector molecules. Deoxyribose and benzoate degradation appeared to be mediated by an oxidant species not typical of .OH, and species such as the ferryl ion-bipyridyl complex may have contributed to the damage observed. 相似文献

The Fenton-type reaction between ferrous diethylenetriamine pentaacetic acid (Fe2+-DTPA, 50–200 μM) and H2O2 (20–1000 μM) in phosphate buffer at pH 7.0 results in consumption of dissolved oxygen. This observation differs from many prior reports that oxygen is liberated when more concentrated solutions of H2O2 are decomposed by iron salts. The rate and total quantity of oxygen consumed were dependent upon the concentrations of ferrous chelate, H2O2, and excess DTPA. Evidence is provided that both the ferrous-DTPA chelate and free DTPA can participate in the oxygen-consuming reactions. Oxygen was also consumed during the Fenton reaction between ferrous ions and H2O2 when DTPA and phosphate buffer were omitted. Under these conditions, oxygen evolution was observed at higher H2O2 concentrations (e.g., 400 μM). The consumption of oxygen during the Fenton-type reaction of an iron chelate at neutral pH may be relavant to events that take place in biologic systems. 相似文献

A cholinesterase was partially purified from bush bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) roots by using acridinium-based ligand affinity chromatography. The procedure gave a 78-fold increase in specific activity, although at least three inactive contaminants remained. The enzyme activity was maximal against acetyl esters of choline and was inhibited by neostigmine. Di-isopropyl phosphorofluoridate completely inhibited activity at concentrations greater than 0.1 mM. The catalytic centre activity was 2 X 10(-4) times that of electric eel acetylcholinesterase. Cholinesterase activity appeared as a peak (s = 4.2 +/- 0.1 S) after isokinetic sedimentation. The Stokes radius was 4.00 nm and the apparent molecular weight was 72700 +/- 1900. The smallest active and native form of the enzyme appeared to be a monomer. This contrasts with animal acetylcholinesterases, in which the smallest active and native forms are multimeric. 相似文献
