The short-day plant Lemna paucicostata 6746 can be induced toflower on long days (continuous light) by the addition of copper,tungstate or ferricyanide to the medium, and in each case theeffect was greatly enhanced by deleting molybdate from the medium.Treatment with asparagine, aspartate, glutamate, -alanine, glycineorserine, all of which are known to increase the critical daylengthand almost nullify the light-break effect in L. paucicostata6746, enhanced the long-day flowering induced by copper, ferricyanideor Mo-deficiency.

Flowering of Lemna paucicostata 6746, a typical short-day plant,was induced by culture for 96 or 120 h in nitrogen-free mediumunder continuous illumination. To examine the effects of lysine,we homogenized entire plants of L. paucicostata 151 in a solutionof lysine and the supernatant obtained after centrifugationof the homogenate was added to the medium to give various concentrationsof lysine in the medium. Flowering of strain 6746 in nitrogen-freeor nitrogen-deficient culture medium was effectively promotedby the addition of a lysine-containing supernatant to the medium.The suppressive effect of elastatinal, a protease inhibitor,on the induction of flowering was almost completely reversedby the simultaneous application of a lysine-containing supernatantto the medium. During nitrogen-free culture, the level of endogenousfree lysine, expressed on the basis of the amount of total freeamino acids, increased. Lysine-containing supernatants alsoinduced flowering of plants in nitrogen-rich medium under continuousillumination. These findings suggest that endogenous lysineis involved in the induction of flowering in L. paucicostata6746 on nitrogen-free or nitrogen-deficient medium, as it isin the induction of flowering in L. paucicostata 151 (Received July 29, 1996; Accepted November 18, 1996) 相似文献

The effect of copper on flowering and growth of Lemna paucicostata6746 and Lemna gibba G3 in a copper-containing medium is nullifiedby the addition of EDTA, ammonium ions or salicylic acid tothe medium or a decrease in its nitrate concentration. Thesefactors were examined for their effects on the absorption ofcopper by the plants. The addition of EDTA to the medium completelyinhibited the absorption of copper in both species, thus eliminatingthe copper effect. Ammonium ions also inhibited copper absorption,their effectiveness rising with their concentration. Loweringthe nitrate concentration in the medium nullified the coppereffect on flowering in L. paucicostata 6746, and the additionof salicylic acid to the medium also nullified the copper effectin L. gibba G3, both without affecting the absorption of copper.

L-Pipecolic acid was found to be effective in inducing floweringof Lemna paucicostata 151, 381, 441 and 6746, and of Lemna gibbaG3. When the plants were grown on half-strength Hutner's medium,L-pipecolic acid caused profuse flowering of L. paucicostata151 maintained under 9 and 10 h of light daily. In L. paucicostata441 and 6746, L-pipecolic acid had a strong flower-promotingeffect under a near critical photoperiod. In L. paucicostata381, by contrast, L-pipecolic acid had only a very small effecton flowering. In L. gibba G3 substantial promotion of floweringwas observed under continuous light. When one-twentieth-strengthHutner's medium was used as the basic medium, L-pipecolic acidstimulated flowering in all strains of Lemna examined, evenunder continuous light. When L. paucicostata 151 was grown on one-tenth-strength M mediumor one-twentieth-strength Hutner's medium, the flower-inducingactivity of L-pipecolic acid was greatly enhanced by cytokininunder continuous light. However, when this strain was grownwith 9 h of illumination daily, this synergistic effect of cytokininwas only slight. A short-term (even 1-h) treatment with L-pipecolicacid resulted in flowering, suggesting that L-pipecolic acidis involved in the induction of flowering, rather than its evocation.D-Pipecolic acid also had flower-inducing activity, but itsactivity was 50 times lower than that of the L-isomer.

Addition of copper or tungstate to or exclusion of molybdenumfrom M-sucrose medium induced long-day flowering in Lemna paucicostata6746 provided the medium contained sufficient nitrate. By contrast,ferricyanide, cyanide or silver induced long day flowering evenin nitrate-deficient, M-sucrose medium. (Received August 26, 1977; ) 相似文献

Vitamins K1 K3 and K5 induced flowering in Lemna paucicostata151, a short-day plant, cultured in 1/10 strength M medium (1/10M medium) under continuous light, and their activity was greatlyintensified by simultaneous application of benzyladenine. Themost active of these was vitamin K5 L. paucicostata 6746 ismore sensitive to vitamin K5 than strain 151, but the effectof vitamin K5 on strain 6746 was not intensified by benzyladenine.The flower-inducing activity of vitamin K5 was intensified bythe addition of benzoic acid in both strains and by the additionof copper or ferricyanide in Strain 6746, when these chemicalswere added at such low concentrations that they would scarcelyinduce flowering. In strain 6746, vitamin K5 added to 1/10 M had little effecton flowering under a subcritical photoperiod, while it clearlyinduced flowering under continuous light. In this strain, vitaminK5 added to full strength M medium, in which this plant wasmore sensitive to short photoperiods than in 1/10 M medium,did not induce flowering even under continuous light, and wasrather inhibitory under short photoperiods.

Four inhibitors of proteases, namely, bestatin, diisopropylfluorophosphate, elastatinal and p-toluenesulfonyl-L-lysinechloromethyl ketone hydrochloride, were examined for their effectson flowering of a short-day plant Lemna paucicostata 6746 anda long-day plant Lemna gibba G3. Each of the inhibitors greatlyinhibited the flowering of Lemna paucicostata 6746 that is normallyinduced by nitrogen deficiency. Bestatin or elastatinal givenonly during the first half of the culture period inhibited theflowering more clearly than when each was given during the latterhalf, suggesting that they inhibited the inductive process(es)involved in flowering rather than development of flower buds.Bestatin or elastatinal greatly inhibited the flowering of Lemnapaucicostata 6746 induced by photoperiodic stimulus, ferricyanideand continuous far-red light. Simultaneous application of thesetwo inhibitors was more effective in the inhibition of photoperiodicallyinduced and ferricyanide-induced flowering than was each inhibitoralone. They also completely inhibited the photoperiodic floweringof Lemna gibba G3. These results suggest that the inductionor activation of some proteases, probably followed by the degradationof some protein(s), is necessary for the induction of floweringin both these plants.

In vitro activity of nitrate reductase was studied in Lemnapaucicostata 6746 grown on modified Hoagland medium supplementedwith 1% sucrose, containing various inhibitors. Copper, silver,tungstate or cyanide which induces daylength-independent flowering,inhibited the nitrate reductase activity, but azide which doesnot induce daylength-independent flowering did not. Molybdate-deficientmedium induced flowering, and inhibited nitrate reductase activity.Lowering of nitrate level of the medium also induced daylength-independentflowering. These results suggest that the suppression of nitrate assimilationcauses daylength independent flowering in Lemna paucicostata6746, and that one of the flower-inducing actions of the copper,silver, tungstate, cyanide or the deletion of molybdate is tosuppress the nitrate assimilation.

In Lemna paucicostata 6746, P2 (flower induction period) incontinuous darkness was largely extended by dilution of 1/2H1S medium (Hutner's medium supplemented with 1% sucrose) to1/10 strength. The dilution of 1/2 H1S medium to 1/10 strengthremoved completely the extension of P1 (pre-flower inductionperiod) and P2 due to a red light pulse given at the 7th h ofthe dark period, which was observed in 1/2 H1S medium. When iron and phosphate ions were added to 1/10 H1S medium upto the same concentration as in 1/2 H1S medium, the extensionof P2 was removed completely. The red light pulse-induced extensionof P1 was observed in 1/10 H1S medium only when iron ions wereadded. It is suggested that iron (Fe$ $) and phosphate ionsare important in determining the rate of photoperiodic flowerinduction in L. paucicostata 6746.

Flowering in the short-day plant Lemna paucicostata 6746 canbe induced under continuous light by the addition of ferricyanie,ferrocyanide or KCN to M-sucrose medium. Each substance is nearly10 times more effective when the flasks are covered by glassbeakers than when cotton plugs are used. By contrast, when floweringis induced under continuous light by copper or by short-daytreatment, neither flowering nor growth are affected by whetherglass beakers or cotton plugs are used. Ferricyanide, ferrocyanideand KCN are also able to induce long-day flowering when theplants are grown on Msucrose medium in small beakers that areplaced in a covered storage dish that also contains a solutionof one of these compounds. Addition of a KOH trap to the storagedish completely blocks the flowering induced by these compounds.If [14C]ferrocyanide is added to the storage dish both the M-sucrosemedium and the plants contain significant amounts of radioactivity,the amount of radioactivity being proportional to the floweringresponse. These results indicate that ferricyanide, ferrocyanideand KCN break down to release HCN and that it is the HCN whichis responsible for inducing flowering in L. paucicostata 6746under continuous light.

Lemna paucicostata 6746, a short-day plant, produced flowerbuds even under continuous light when cultured in nitrogen-deficientmodified Hoagland medium with 1% sucrose for 3 days or morefollowed by culture on nitrogen-rich medium (either nitrateor ammonium). Flowering was also induced by culture on mediumcontaining 20100 µM nitrate as the sole nitrogensource for 10 days or more, but not on medium with a low ammoniumconcentration. However, if plants cultured on medium containing520 µM ammonium as the sole nitrogen source for10 days were grown in a nitrogen-rich medium for a further 4days, they produced flower buds. Thus, nitrogen deficiency caninduce day length-independent flowering in Lemna paucicoslata6746, but nitrogen is required for the manifestation of flowering.

Daylength-independent flowering in Lemna paucicostata 6746,a short-day plant, was induced by daily treatment with nitrogendeficiency for 17 hours, which inhibited nitrate reductase activity.The endogenous nitrogen level in plants treated daily with 17-hnitrogen deficiency was much higher than in plants culturedon medium containing 50200 and 1,000µM nitratefor 10 and 14 days, respectively, which were induced to flower.These results suggest that suppression of nitrogen metabolismfor more than a certain number of hours can induce floweringeven in plants with a high nitrogen level.

The short-day plant Lemna paucicostata 6746 took up the sameamount of copper from the medium whether the pH of the mediumwas 4.1 or 5.1. At pH 4.1, an addition of copper to the mediumresulted in an unchanged chlorophyll content, a somewhat reducedgrowth rate and a substantial induction of long-day flowering.By contrast, at pH 5.1 the same copper concentration causeda reduction in the chlorophyll content and strong inhibitionof growth, but it did not induce any long-day flowering.

The addition of a high concentration of FeCl3 to the medium(1/10 strength M medium) slightly inhibited the benzoic acid(BA)-induced flowering of Lemna paucicostata 151 in continuouslight, although it promoted the flowering induced by short-day(SD) conditions. SD treatment had no significant effect on BA-inducedflowering in the medium with a standard concentration of iron,in which this plant hardly responds to SD, but greatly promotedit in the medium containing iron at a high concentration, inwhich this plant clearly responds to SD. The effect of BA seemsto be independent of but additive to the photoperiodic stimulus. In photosensitive strains 6746 and 441, a low concentrationof BA slightly lengthened the critical photoperiod but had noflower-inducing effect under continuous light. Since an optimalconcentration of BA induced flowering even under continuouslight in these strains, this was considered to be due to photoperiod-independentpromotion of flowering rather than shortening of the time-measuringprocess in the photoperiodic reaction.

The crude water extracts of leaves of many plant species belongingto Spermatophyta and some belonging to Bryophyta induced floweringof Lemna paucicostata 151 (PI51) under continuous light, atthe concentrations equivalent to 0.1 to 10 mg fr wt leaf per10 ml culture medium (mg fr wt/10 ml). The extract of Salvinia(Pterydophyta) added together with the extract of Lemna at aconcentration lower than that necessary to cause flowering alsoinduced flowering. The activity of the water extracts of someplants varied considerably from experiment to experiment dueto unknown factors, but the extracts of Pharbitis nil strainViolet, a sensitive short-day plant, always showed a high activity,as did the extracts of Lemna paucicostata reported previously. The extract of Pharbitis cotyledons induced flowering of P151even at 0.3 mg fr wt/10 ml, and significantly promoted floweringof L. paucicostata 441 and 6746 at 13 mg fr wt/10 ml.Ex-udate from the cuttings of the seedlings was also active.However, neither the activity of the water extract nor thatof the exudate could be correlated with photoperiodic floralinduction. On the other hand, the extract of leaves or cotyledonshad higher activity (on a fr wt basis) than that of other organs,and the activity of the extract of cotyledons changed with theirage roughly in parallel with their photoperiodic sensitivity.

Flowering of Lemna gibba G3, a long-day duckweed, was inhibitedby adding CuSO4, AgNO3, HgCl2, Na2WO4 or iodoacetamide to themedium at the concentrations inducing long-day flowering inLemna paucicostata 6746, a short-day duckweed. This suggeststhat these metabolic inhibitors affected the photoperiodic sensitivityrather than directly affecting flower initiation. Ferricyanidepromoted flowering in both of these short-day and long-day duckweeds. (Received July 7, 1977; ) 相似文献

Lemna paucicostata 6746, a short-day plant, flowers in agedHutner's medium even under continuous light, when the endogenousnitrogen level decreases to below 1.6 µmg fr wt. At thesenitrogen levels, daylength-independent flowering of the plantcan be induced even in fresh Hutner's medium. Thus, old-cultureflowering in Hutner's medium is due to nitrogen deficiency inthe plants.

Lemna paucicostata 6746 is a short-day duckweed and flowersin response to a single photoinductive cycle. Its critical darkperiod requirement is ca. 10 h. Flowering in this duckweed couldbe induced by 8-hydroxyquinoline (8-HQ) under an otherwise non-inductivelong-day regime of 16 h light and 8 h darkness; the criticaldark period requirement for initiation of flowering was thusreduced by at least 2 h. However, 8-HQ was ineffective in initiatingflowering in strain 6746 under continuous illumination. Atomicabsorption analysis of the plant material revealed that thecontent of both iron and copper is markedly higher in the plantstreated with 8-HQ. A comparison of the effects of 8-HQ and thoseof EDTA and ethylenediamine-di(o-hydroxyphenylacetic acid),on flowering of strain 6746, has also been made.

Lemna paucicostata 6746, a short-day plant, produced flowerbuds even under continuous light when cultured for 3 days inferricyanide containing ammonium-free medium followed by cultureon nitrogen-rich medium (either nitrate or ammonium). Dailytreatment with ferricyanide in the absence of ammonium for morethan 8 hours, which completely inhibited nitrate reductase activitywithin 6 hours after the addition to the medium, induced daylength-independentflowering even when the ammonium-rich medium was given duringthe remaining hours. The presence of ammonium for 1 hour atthe middle of the 14-h ferricyanide treatment almost completelysuppressed floral induction. (Received March 6, 1986; Accepted June 3, 1986) 相似文献

Lemna paucicostata HEGELM., a short-day plant, can be inducedto flower under long days by provision of cytokinins in themedium. Of several cytokinins tested, zeatin and 6-benzylaminopurineare the most potent. They are effective when added in a mediumcontaining excess of iron and thus can bring about the sameaffect as EDDHA. Interestingly, when both EDDHA and a cytokininare provided together, flowering occurs even in the medium containingnormal level of iron. Other cytokinins such as SD 8339, kinetinand 6-(,-dimethylallylamino)-purine are also effective in mediumcontaining a slightly higher level of ferric citrate. In contrastto cytokinins, indole-3-acetic acid and gibberellic acid arenot only ineffective by themselves, but even nullify the inductiveeffect of cytokinins on flowering. Growth retardants such asCCC and abscisic acid have been found to inhibit flowering athigh levels. (Received September 8, 1969; ) 相似文献
