Structural and functional vein maturation in developing tobacco leaves in relation to AtSUC2 promoter activity

Transgenic tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) plants expressing green fluorescent protein (GFP) from the AtSUC2 promoter were used to study the function of different vein classes in developing leaves. In sink leaves, unloading capacity occurred acropetally, with the class I (midrib) and class II veins becoming functional in phloem unloading before the maturation of the class III veinal network. In contrast, in developing cotyledons and source leaves, loading capacity occurred in a basipetal direction. There was a strong correlation between loading capacity, as assessed by (14)C Suc uptake and companion cell expression of AtSUC2-GFP. Developing cotyledons were shown to utilize all available vein classes for loading. A second line of transgenic plants was produced in which GFP, expressed from the AtSUC2 promoter, was targeted to the endoplasmic reticulum instead of the cytoplasm. In these AtSUC2-GFP-ER plants, GFP was unable to traffic into the sieve element and was restricted solely to the companion cells of source leaf tissues. Partial shading of leaves undergoing the sink-source transition demonstrated that the activation of the AtSUC2 promoter in tobacco was influenced by light. Functional and structural maturation of the minor veins required light or a product of light. The activation of the AtSUC2 promoter within major veins appears to be regulated differently from that in the minor veins. The relationship between AtSUC2 activation and the activity of endogenous tobacco Suc transporters is discussed.

Elevated sucrose-phosphate synthase activity in transgenic tobacco sustains photosynthesis in older leaves and alters development

Constitutive over-expression of a maize sucrose-phosphate synthase (SPS) gene in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum) had major effects on leaf carbohydrate budgets with consequences for whole plant development. Transgenic tobacco plants flowered earlier and had greater flower numbers than wild-type plants. These changes were not linked to modified source leaf carbon assimilation or carbon export, although sucrose to starch ratios were significantly higher in leaves expressing the transgene. The youngest and oldest leaves of plants over-expressing SPS had up to 10-fold wild-type maximal extractable SPS activity, but source leaf SPS activities were only 2-3 times greater in these lines than in the wild type. In the oldest leaves, where the expression of the transgene led to the most marked enhancement in SPS activity, photosynthesis was also increased. It was concluded that these increases in the capacity for sucrose synthesis and carbon assimilation, particularly in older leaves, accelerate the whole plant development and increase the abundance of flowers without substantial changes in the overall shoot biomass.

Ecophysiology of phloem loading in source leaves

The nature of phloem loading of photosynthesis products – either symplastic or apoplastic – has been a matter of debate over the last two decades. This controversy was reconciled by proposing a multiprogrammed loading mechanism. Different modes of phloem loading were distinguished on the basis of the variety of plasmodesmatal connectivity between the minor vein elements. Physiological evidence for at least two phloem loading mechanisms as well as recent support for coincidence between plasmodesmatal connectivity and the loading mechanism is shortly reviewed. The present paper attempts to correlate the plasmodesmatal connectivity between sieve element/companion cell complex and the adjacent cells (the minor vein configuration) – and implicitly the associate phloem loading mechanisms – with different types of climate. The minor vein configuration is a family characteristic. This enables one to relate vein configuration with ecosystem using the family distribution over the globe. The uneven distribution of vein types between terrestrial ecosystems indicates that apoplastic phloem loading predominates in cold and dry climate zones. Projection of the minor vein configuration on the Takhtajan system of flowering plants suggests evolution from apoplastic to symplastic phloem loading. Accordingly, the distribution of minor vein configurations suggests that drought and temperature stress have led to the transformation of the ancient symplastic mode into the more advanced apoplastic mode of loading.     

Symplasmic transport and phloem loading in gymnosperm leaves

Despite more than 130 years of research, phloem loading is far from being understood in gymnosperms. In part this is due to the special architecture of their leaves. They differ from angiosperm leaves among others by having a transfusion tissue between bundle sheath and the axial vascular elements. This article reviews the somewhat inaccessible and/or neglected literature and identifies the key points for pre-phloem transport and loading of photoassimilates. The pre-phloem pathway of assimilates is structurally characterized by a high number of plasmodesmata between all cell types starting in the mesophyll and continuing via bundle sheath, transfusion parenchyma, Strasburger cells up to the sieve elements. Occurrence of median cavities and branching indicates that primary plasmodesmata get secondarily modified and multiplied during expansion growth. Only functional tests can elucidate whether this symplasmic pathway is indeed continuous for assimilates, and if phloem loading in gymnosperms is comparable with the symplasmic loading mode in many angiosperm trees. In contrast to angiosperms, the bundle sheath has properties of an endodermis and is equipped with Casparian strips or other wall modifications that form a domain border for any apoplasmic transport. It constitutes a key point of control for nutrient transport, where the opposing flow of mineral nutrients and photoassimilates has to be accommodated in each single cell, bringing to mind the principle of a revolving door. The review lists a number of experiments needed to elucidate the mode of phloem loading in gymnosperms.     

Photosynthetic electron transport in tobacco leaves infected with tobacco mosaic virus

Tobacco ( Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Samsun) plants inoculated with different strains of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) inducing mosaic symptoms of widely varying severity were studied with in vivo chlorophyll fluorescence. This method was used to deduce photosynthetic electron transport efficiency in relation to symptom expression. The quantum yields of photosystem II (PS II) electron transport rate were significantly diminished in virus strains inducing loss of chlorophyll. The reduction in young mosaic-diseased leaves appeared to be due in part to a reduction in the fraction of open reaction centers, whereas in older leaves exhibiting less pronounced symptoms the reduction was mainly caused by a reduced efficiency of capture of excitation energy of open PS II reaction centers. Upon infection with any of the five virus strains PS II seemed to be irreversibly damaged in the inoculated leaves and the ones directly above, indicative of a possible increased susceptibility to photoinhibition in these leaves (Somersalo and Krause 1989) even when no symptoms were apparent. Symptom expression did not appear to be related to the influence of the virus on PS II activity, because the severest effects occurred in the inoculated leaves, which either remained symptomless or developed slight yellowing only. This study demonstrates the usefulness or modulated chlorophyll fluorescence measurements for the investigation of plant-virus interactions. It is particularly important when visual symptoms are absent.     

Polyribosomes in protoplasts isolated from tobacco leaves

Polyribosomes (polysomes), active in an amino acid incorporation system in vitro, were isolated from tobacco leaf protoplasts. A comparison of polysome profiles indicated that the polysome/monosome ratio is greatly decreased in isolated protoplasts as compared to the intact leaf. In isolated protoplasts, a marked accumulation of ribosomal subunits was also found. The division of protoplasts, as investigated in the 8-cell and callus stages, was associated with a(n) (at least) partial regeneration of polysome profiles characteristic for leaves. Plasmolysis of leaves attached to the plant had no great effect on the polysome profile. However, leaf excision per se resulted in a dramatic loss of polysomes, even when the leaf tissue was floated on water. It is concluded that the isolation of the cell from its normal environment, and not the osmotic stress and associated increase in RNase activity, is the most important factor responsible for the loss of polysomes in isolated protoplasts.Abbreviations EGTA ethylene glycol bis (2-aminoethyl ether)-tetraacetic acid - HEPES N-2-hydroxyethylpiperazine-N-2-ethanesulfonic acid - mRNA messenger ribonucleic acid - RNase ribonuclease - Tris tris(hydroxymethyl)aminomethane - TCA trichloroacetic acid
