The susceptibility of 257 monocotyledon species belonging to 139 genera and 27 families, has been tested and the literature on this subject reviewed. In contrast with dicotyledons and gymnosperms, monocotyledons are much less susceptible to Agrobacterium tumefaciens: only 3 % of the species of monocotyledons tested were host plants, whereas 60 % of the dicotyledons and gymnosperms were susceptible. Only the closely related monocotyledon orders Liliales (6 families) and Arales (1 family) contained species that were susceptible. These results are consistent with a proposed taxonomic relationship between the Liliales and the dicotyledons. A correlation between host biochemical capabilities and susceptibility to crown gall is suggested. 相似文献

Nuclear DNA content of 62 species of angiosperms including 52 monocotyledons and ten dicotyledons has been estimated by flow cytometry using Nicotiana tabacum var. Xanthi as the internal standard. These data, considered together with previous data on diploid species, suggest the following: 1) Most families and orders of monocotyledons have small genomes. Contrary to the general impression that monocotyledons are a group characterized by large genomes, genomes of over 20 pg/2C nucleus occur only in the Liliiflorae, Commelinales, Alismatales, and Araceae. 2) Variation within families ranges from two- to 56-fold, but is two- to fivefold in most families. Thus extraordinary variation in genome size appears to be limited to particular lineages, perhaps owing to some shared feature that facilitates such variation. 3) Endopolyploidy is not observed in the leaves of the species studied, although it has been reported to occur in the roots of several monocotyledons. This suggests that an examination of the basis for this difference between the roots and leaves of monocotyledons may provide clues to the mechanisms that regulate endopolyploidization in these organs. 相似文献

Low CO2 compensation points have been found to be associated with several unusual characteristics related to photosynthesis. One such characteristic is a prominent, chlorenchymatous vascular bundle sheath in the leaves. It has been suggested that the presence of this sheath in dicotyledons can serve as a means of detecting low CO2-compensating species. We collected 88 dicotyledon species from 22 families reported to have chlorenchymatous sheaths. Of the 88, only three, Tribulus terrestris, L., Boerhaavia paniculata, L. C. Rich, and Trianthema portulacastrum L., had low CO2 compensation points. Cross sections of the leaves of the other species revealed that they did have chlorenchymatous vascular bundle sheaths. However, these sheath cells contained chloroplasts which were not specialized for starch formation as were the bundle sheath chloroplasts of the low CO2-compensating species. 相似文献

Summary Solution calcium concentrations required for the growth of a range of plant species, including both monocotyledons and dicotyledons,
were determined in two experiments in which plants were grown in flowing solution culture at constantly maintained calcium
concentrations ranging from 0.5 to 3000 μM. Calcium chloride was used as the calcium source in the first experiment, calcium sulphate was used in the second.
At calcium concentrations of 10 μM and below, all species developed calcium deficiency symptoms. The severity of the deficiency was more pronounced in the dicotyledons
than in the monocotyledons. However, cassava was much more tolerant than all other dicotyledons and equally as tolerant as
rice, the most tolerant monocotyledon.
Solution calcium concentrations required for 90% of maximum yield were generally lower for monocotyledons (3 to 20 μM) than for dicotyledons (7 to 720μM) when calcium chloride was used as the calcium source. When calcium sulphate was used, 7 out of 11 species, including 3 monocotyledons,
required external calcium concentrations of 1200 μM and above. The results are discussed in relation to effects of solution composition and the choice of counter-ions on plant
response to calcium and other macronutrient cations. It is concluded that yield depressions due to toxicity of excesses of
chloride, and possibly other counter-ions, can lead to serious underestimation of limiting external cation concentrations
for plant growth. 相似文献

The vascular bundles in the inflorescence axis of Andropogon gerardii occur in inner and outer systems. The inner system is made up of large, early developing strands that, at earliest stages of development, are precocious (= the appendage they are to serve has not yet been initiated). The outer system consists of later developing smaller strands that are open ended in a proximal direction (= strands differentiate basipetally in the cortex below the appendage they serve). Bundles of both the inner and outer systems are not connected to other procambium early in their development but exist as isolated strands. The veins of the inner system of the inflorescence axis occur as sympodia. The presence of inner and outer systems in the vascular tissue is common to most monocotyledons. However, amongst monocotyledons, only certain grasses have been shown to have strands of the inner system that are isolated early in development. Many dicotyledons have large strands which are precocious and some have smaller, later developing strands which are open ended in a proximal direction, hence they occur as isolated strands. These smaller strands in dicotyledons occur between large strands. Certain dicotyledons have an inner and an outer system of veins. Of these, some have veins of the inner system that differ from the inner system bundles of monocotyledons in that they also form part of the outer system of veins, or develop at a different time. One other dicotyledon with an inner and outer system, Bougainvillea, differs from monocotyledons only in that the bundles of the outer system do not seem to be isolated early in their development and anastomoses are seen between the inner and outer systems. Thus, it appears that monocotyledons differ from dicotyledons only in the presence of independent inner and outer systems of vascular bundles in the former. Thus, the hypothesis of Zimmermann and Tomlinson that there are basic differences between monocotyledon and dicotyledon vascular systems is not substantiated. It is even suspected that monocotyledon and dicotyledon vascular systems will be demonstrated to be modifications of a basic plan consisting of large, acropetally differentiating and smaller, basipetally differentiating strands. 相似文献

Leaves of 83 angiosperms have been made surveyed for quinic and shikimic acids. The quinic acid content was higher in woody dicotyledons than in herbaceous dicotyledons or in the monocotyledons, substantiating the view that its presence may be correlated with the lignification in plants. 相似文献

The polysaccharide compositions of unlignified primary cell walls from two species of palms were examined. Cell-wall preparations were isolated from the stem apex, including the pre-emergent leaflets and rachides, of Phoenix canariensis (Canary Island date palm), and from leaflets and rachides dissected from pre-emergent leaves in the stem apex of Rhopalostylis sapida (Nikau palm). The non-cellulosic polysaccharides in the cell-wall preparations from both species had similar monosaccharide compositions, with arabinose and galactose being the predominant neutral monosaccharides, together with large amounts of galacturonic acid. These monosaccharide compositions indicated the presence of large proportions of pectic polysaccharides, including homogalacturonans. This was confirmed by linkage analyses of the cell-wall preparations which showed the presence of large proportions of pectic arabinans, together with pectic galactans and/or Type I arabinogalactans. Evidence for rhamnogalacturonan I and small amounts of rhamnogalacturonan II was also obtained. In addition to pectic polysaccharides, the cell-wall preparations contained smaller amounts of xyloglucans and even smaller amounts of heteroxylans, probably glucuronoarabinoxylans, and glucomannans and/or galactoglucomannans; (1→3,1→4)-β-D-glucans were not present. Although palms (Arecaceae) are commelinoid monocotyledons, the polysaccharide compositions of their primary cell walls resemble those of non-commelinoid monocotyledons and dicotyledons. These compositions contrast with those of primary cell walls of other commelinoid families which have glucuronoarabinoxylans rather than pectic polysaccharides as the major non-cellulosic polysaccharides. The results are discussed in relation to the possible evolution of the composition of primary cell walls of monocotyledons. 相似文献

Background and Aims
The cell cycle is controlled by cyclin-dependent kinases (CDKs), and CDK inhibitors are major regulators of their activities. The ICK/KRP family of CDK inhibitors has been reported in several plants, with seven members in arabidopsis; however, the phylogenetic relationship among members in different species is unknown. Also, there is a need to understand how these genes and proteins are regulated. Furthermore, little information is available on the functional differences among ICK/KRP family members.Methods
We searched publicly available databases and identified over 120 unique ICK/KRP protein sequences from more than 60 plant species. Phylogenetic analysis was performed using 101 full-length sequences from 40 species and intron–exon organization of ICK/KRP genes in model species. Conserved sequences and motifs were analysed using ICK/KRP protein sequences from arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana), rice (Orysa sativa) and poplar (Populus trichocarpa). In addition, gene expression was examined using microarray data from arabidopsis, rice and poplar, and further analysed by RT-PCR for arabidopsis.Key Results and Conclusions
Phylogenetic analysis showed that plant ICK/KRP proteins can be grouped into three major classes. Whereas the C-class contains sequences from dicotyledons, monocotyledons and gymnosperms, the A- and B-classes contain only sequences from dicotyledons or monocotyledons, respectively, suggesting that the A- and B-classes might have evolved from the C-class. This classification is also supported by exon–intron organization. Genes in the A- and B- classes have four exons, whereas genes in the C-class have only three exons. Analysis of sequences from arabidopsis, rice and poplar identified conserved sequence motifs, some of which had not been described previously, and putative functional sites. The presence of conserved motifs in different family members is consistent with the classification. In addition, gene expression analysis showed preferential expression of ICK/KRP genes in certain tissues. A model has been proposed for the evolution of this gene family in plants. 相似文献10.

Abstract: The sucrose uptake behaviour of many different plant species is characterised by the presence of at least two components with distinct kinetic properties. These include at least one high-affinity and one low-affinity transport system. All known sucrose transporters from higher plants fall into one of three large subfamilies, according to phylogenetic analysis. Apparently, the largest subfamily, the SUT1 subfamily, exclusively consists of high-affinity sucrose transporters from dicotyledons, whereas none of the transporters from monocotyledonous plants groups within this subfamily. The other two subfamilies of sucrose transporter-like proteins are either low-affinity transporter or putative sucrose-sensing proteins. Most of the known sucrose transporters from monocotyledons are closely related to the SUT2 subfamily and include high-affinity transporters, suggesting a different evolutionary origin of dicotyledonous and monocotyledonous sucrose transporter gene families. 相似文献

The degree of oligophagy in Locusta migratoria (L.) 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
- 1 Locusta migratoria in the field feeds mainly on grasses, including cultivated species, but there are numerous reports of feeding on other monocotyledons. Feeding on dicotyledons is reported, but in many cases non-grasses are only accepted in the absence of grasses. Previous laboratory work also indicates that grasses comprise the main food, though other plants are eaten.
- 2 Field observations on nymphal bands in Australia show that the insects select grasses within the habitat; dicotyledons are generally rejected.
- 3 The feeding response to 209 species of plants from fifty-six families was tested. The grasses and some Cyperaceae and Juncaceae were generally fully eaten. Some other monocotyledons, such as palms, were also accepted though only small amounts were eaten; orchids and lilies were rejected. Very few dicotyledons were eaten. The dicotyledons which were eaten after 5h without food were rejected after only 1 h; the grasses were readily accepted after the shorter interval
- 4 The degree of oligophagy depends on the choice of food available and the time for which the insect has been deprived of food and water. Grass is normally eaten if available; in its absence, insects which have been without food for some hours will feed on a wide range of plants, but the amounts eaten are usually small.

A survey of the presence of endothecial thickenings in 20 genera from 11 families of porate monocotyledons tested the long-standing hypothesis that porate anther dehiscence is correlated with the absence of thickenings. Although this hypothesis is widely repeated in texts, it has been supported by a limited, biased data base from studies of Ericaceae and Melastomataceae, two large families of dicotyledons. The results of our broad study of monocotyledons show that endothecial thickenings are present in most porate monocotyledons. Thickenings are absent in only two of the 11 porate families surveyed, Mayacaceae and Commelinaceae, both in the Commelinales. Thickenings are also absent in Xyris (Xyridaceae), a nonporate genus. These findings indicate that in monocotyledons porate anther dehiscence and the absence of thickenings are not as closely related as previously supposed. 相似文献

籽粒苋丙酮酸磷酸二激酶(PPDK)基因的密码子偏好性 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
运用CHIPS、CUSP和CodonW等程序分析了双子叶C4植物籽粒苋(Amaranthus hypochondriacus)丙酮酸磷酸二激酶(PPDK)基因的密码子偏好性, 并与马铃薯(Solanum tuberosum)和苜蓿(Medicago truncatula)等双子叶植物及水稻(Oryza sativa)和玉米(Zea mays)等单子叶植物进行了比较, 建立了聚类树状图, 以期在作物高光效基因工程中为籽粒苋PPDK基因选择合适的受体植物提供依据。研究结果表明, 籽粒苋PPDK基因偏好于以A或T结尾的密码子, 与其它几种被比较的双子叶作物的PPDK基因密码子偏好性趋势一致, 而玉米和水稻等单子叶植物更偏好使用以G或C结尾的密码子。PPDK基因密码子使用偏好性的系统聚类分析表明, 籽粒苋与马铃薯和苜蓿等双子叶植物聚为一类, 而稗草(Echinochloa crusgalli)、玉米和高粱(Sorghum bicolor)等单子叶植物聚为一类, 与系统进化地位一致。但单子叶植物水稻的密码子偏好性与籽粒苋较为接近, 与玉米和高粱相差较远。为了选择合适的蛋白质表达系统, 比较并分析了籽粒苋PPDK基因的密码子偏好性与大肠杆菌(Escherichia coli)及酵母菌的异同, 发现其与酵母菌的差异小于大肠杆菌, 表明选择酵母菌表达系统更为合适。 相似文献

Four dicotyledonous Astcraceac and four monocotyledonous Iridaceac species were grown from seed under three different effective ultraviolet-B (UV-B, 280–320 nm) fluenccs, which approximated those received daily over the natural growing periods of these species at their southerly and northerly distribution limits under ambient stratospheric ozone, and at the northerly limit assuming a 20% ozone depletion. Diminished photochemical efficiencies, delayed flowering, decreased flower production, pollen germination and tube growth, and reduced numbers of seeds set, accompanied by corresponding increases in mass per seed, were observed mainly in dicotyledons under elevated UV-B radiation, despite their higher foliar and pollen polyphenolic contents, their possession of trinucleatc pollen and their natural occurrence at lower latitudes than monocotyledons with binucleate pollen. The results demonstrate the difficulties in determining plant sensitivity to UV-B radiation from polyphenolic content, pollen type and natural geographic distribution, and suggest that monocotyledons possess other attributes that confer greater resilience to UV-B radiation. 相似文献

The phrase “Darwin’s abominable mystery” is frequently used with reference to a range of outstanding questions about the evolution of the plant group today known as the angiosperms. Here, I seek to more fully understand what prompted Darwin to coin the phrase in 1879, and the meaning he attached to it, by surveying the systematics, paleobotanical records, and phylogenetic hypotheses of his time. In the light of this historical research, I argue that Darwin was referring to the origin only of a subset of what are today called angiosperms: a (now obsolete) group equivalent to the “dicotyledons” of the Hooker and Bentham system. To Darwin and his contemporaries, the dicotyledons’ fossil record began abruptly and with great diversity in the Cretaceous, whereas the gymnosperms and monocotyledons were thought to have fossil records dating back to the Carboniferous or beyond. Based on their morphology, the dicotyledons were widely seen by botanists in Darwin’s time (unlike today) as more similar to the gymnosperms than to the monocotyledons. Thus, morphology seemed to point to gymnosperm progenitors of dicotyledons, but this hypothesis made the monocotyledons, given their (at the time) apparently longer fossil record, difficult to place. Darwin had friendly disagreements about the mystery of the dicotyledons’ abrupt appearance in the fossil record with others who thought that their evolution must have been more rapid than his own gradualism would allow. But the mystery may have been made “abominable” to him because it was seen by some contemporary paleobotanists, most notably William Carruthers, the Keeper of Botany at the British Museum, as evidence for divine intervention in the history of life. Subsequent developments in plant systematics and paleobotany after 1879 meant that Darwin’s letter was widely understood to be referring to the abrupt appearance of all angiosperms when it was published in 1903, a meaning that has been attached to it ever since. 相似文献

Twenty-four aromatic metabolites belonging to cyanogenins, lignans, flavonoids, and phenolic glycosides were obtained from Sambucus nigra. Structures were determined on the basis of their spectroscopic features. Two compounds have been isolated and identified as (2S)-2-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-2-hydroxyphenylacetic acid and benzyl 2-O-beta-D-glucopyranosyl-2,6-dihydroxybenzoate. All the compounds have been assayed on dicotyledons Lactuca sativa (lettuce) and Raphanus sativus (radish) and monocotyledon Allium cepa (onion) to test their stimulatory or inhibitory effects on seed germination and radicle elongation. Cyanogenins have a mainly inhibiting effect while lignans stimulate the growth. Some compounds show different effects on dicotyledons and monocotyledons. 相似文献
