(15)N-Labeled dechlorodauricumine and dechloroacutumine were isolated from Menispermum dauricum roots cultured in a chloride-deficient medium, in which nitrogen-containing macro-components K(14)NO(3) and ((14)NH(4))(2)SO(4) were replaced by K(15)NO(3) and ((15)NH(4))(2)SO(4), respectively. These (15)N-labeled substrates were supplied independently to the roots cultured in a chloride-enriched medium. LC-ESI-MS analysis of alkaloids extracted from the roots, harvested 5 and 10 days after administering the (15)N-labeled substrates, revealed that the (15)N derived from dechlorodauricumine was much more effectively incorporated into chlorinated alkaloids than that derived from dechloroacutumine. These findings suggest that dechlorodauricumine is the principal precursor of the chlorinated alkaloids produced by M. dauricum roots. 相似文献

Nitrate assimilation and nitrogen circulation in Austrian pine 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Nitrate uptake, reduction and translocation were examined in 5-week-old Austrian pines ( Pinus nigra Arnold var. nigricans Host.) during exposure to 5 m M NaNO3 . The rate of nitrate uptake was linear during the 7 h light period. 15 N-NO3 − was detected in all parts of the pine except in the needles. By the 7th hour, 43% of the absorbed nitrate had been reduced, and this increased to 64% by the 24th hour. The major part of the total reduction occurred in the roots at this growth stage. Accumulation of 15 N in reduced soluble and insoluble fractions was more prevalent in roots than in shoots. In the needles, the translocated nitrogen was mainly incorporated into the insoluble fraction. It is likely that most of the nitrogen from nitrate was transported from the roots to the aerial organs as organic nitrogen; however part of the upward nitrogen flux took place as nitrate ions.
An experiment in which an exposure for 24 h to 5 m M Na15 NO3 was followed by 13 days exposure to Na14 NO3 (pulse chase experiment) revealed a half time of about 1 day for depletion of root nitrate. A large part of this depletion was due to the loss of 15 N-NO3 − to the nutrient solution. The remaining pool of 15 N-nitrate was partitioned between a metabolically inactive and an active pool. During the chase period, the simultaneous decrease of 15 N-incorporation in the soluble N fraction and increase in the insoluble N fraction in different pine parts, particularly in the needles, suggested that protein synthesis occurred mostly in young tissues of the shoot and was the major sink of the newly absorbed 15 N-NO3 . 相似文献

Summary One part of a split root system of wheat seedlings received full nutrient solution with15N-nitrate, the other received an identical solution with unlabelled nitrate. Appearance of labelled amino compounds was measured in the xylem sap exuding from roots not supplied directly with15N-nitrate after removal of the15N-nitrate-fed roots. This material indicates cycling of nitrogen from the shoots and through the roots. About 60 per cent of the nitrogen in the xylem appears to be cycling in this way. 相似文献

Nitrate reduction in roots and shoots and exchange of reduced N between organs were quantitatively estimated in intact 13-d-old seedlings of two-row barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Daisengold) using the 15N-incorporation model (A. Gojon et al. (1986) Plant Physiol. 82, 254–260), except that NH

. N-depleted seedlings were exposed to media containing both nitrate (1.8 mM) and nitrite (0.2 mM) under a light-dark cycle of 12:12 h at 20°C; the media contained different amounts of 15N labeling. Experiments were started either immediately after the beginning (expt. 1) or immediately prior to the end (expt. 2) of the light period, and plants were sampled subsequently at each light-dark transition throughout 36 h.

and accumulated it as reduced 15N, predominantly in the shoots. Accumulation of reduced 15N in both experiments was nearly the same at the end of the experiment but the accumulation pattern in roots and shoots during each 12-h period differed greatly depending on time and the light conditions. In expt. 1, the roots accounted for 31% (light), 58% (dark), and 9% (light) of nitrate reduction by the whole plants, while in expt. 2 the contributions of the root were 82% (dark), 20% (light), and 29% (dark), during each of the three 12-h periods. Xylem transport of nitrate drastically decreased in the dark, but that of reduced N rather increased. The downward translocation of reduced 15N increased while nitrate reduction in the root decreased, whereas upward translocation decreased while nitrate reduction in the shoot increased. We conclude that the cycling of reduced N through the plant is important for N feeding of each organ, and that the transport system of reduced N by way of xylem and phloem, as well as nitrate reduction by root and shoot, can be modulated in response to the relative magnitude of reduced-N demands by the root and shoot, with the one or the other predominating under different circumstances.Symbols Anl

A split root system was used to investigate the cycling of nitrogenbetween shoots and roots in young wheat and rye plants. 15N-nitratewas supplied to one part of the root system for various periods,at the end of which these roots were excised. Xylem sap wasthen collected from the other roots which had not been supplieddirectly with 15N-nitrate. 15N detected in the xylem sap indicatedcycling of nitrogen between shoots and roots. Calculations showedthat over 60% of the amino-N flux in the xylem was cycling.Thus nitrate assimilation in the root could account for onlya minor part of amino-N in the xylem sap. The specific activity of 15N in the total N of xylem sap washigher than in the total N of roots and shoots through whichit had cycled. This is because exchange between amino-N in thetransport pools and bulk tissue N is limited. It is proposedthat there is, in effect, a single regulatory pool of amino-N,common to shoots and roots, and that this pool may be a keyelement in the control of N uptake at the level of the wholeplant. The likely energy costs of cycling and implications for thepartitioning of N between shoots and roots are discussed. Infurther investigations the cycling of 42K-potassium and 32S-sulphurwas demonstrated. Key words: Potassium, sulphur, transport, xylem 相似文献

The metabolic fate of nitrogen from 15N-labeled sodium nitrate has been investigated in four healthy Polish Merino ewes. 15N-labeled sodium nitrate was administered intravenously at the dosage of 400 micromol.kg(-1) body weight. Blood plasma and urine concentrations of nitrate, ammonia, and urea and 15N enrichment of ammonia and urea were estimated over a 50-h period following 15N-nitrate administration. Nitrate (NO3-) was slowly eliminated from the blood plasma, and the presence of NO3(-) in the blood plasma above the nitrate "background" was observed for 50 h. 15N enrichment of blood plasma urea already appeared at 15 min and reached the maximum 6 h after 15N-nitrate administration. The urinary excretion of nitrate occured during 50 h after 15N-nitrate injection; the total urine excretion of NO3(-) was 23.63+/-2.39% of the administered dose. The mean urinary recoveries of nitrogen as 15N-urea and 15N-ammonia were 14.76+/-1.32% and 0.096+/-0.015% of the administered 15N-nitrate dose, respectively. It should be pointed out that in total only 38.49% of the administered nitrate-N was excreted in urine (as nitrate, ammonia and urea nitrogen) during 50 h. The results obtained indicate that sheep are able to store nitrate nitrogen in their body. The fate of the remaining approximately 60% of the 15NO3(-) administered dose is unknown. The results obtained do not allow one to conclude what fraction of the unrecovered approximately 60% of the 15NO3(-) dose was utilized by gastrointestinal microorganisms, and (or) metabolized, or stored in sheep tissues. 相似文献

Nitrate reduction in roots and shoots of 7-day-old barley seedlings, and 9-day-old corn seedlings was investigated. The N-depleted seedlings were transferred for 24 h or 48 h of continuous light to a mixed nitrogen medium containing both nitrate and ammonium. Total nitrate reduction was determined by 15N incorporation from 15NO3−, translocation of reduced 15N from the roots to the shoots was estimated with reduced 15N from 15NH4+ assimilation as tracer, and the translocation from the shoots to the roots was measured on plants grown with a split root system. A model was proposed to calculate the nitrate reduction by roots from these data. For both species, the induction phase was characterized by a high contribution of the roots which accounted for 65% of the whole plant nitrate reduction in barley, and for 70% in corn. However, during the second period of the experiment, once this induction process was finished, roots only accounted for 20% of the whole plant nitrate reduction in barley seedlings, and for 27% in corn. This reversal in nitrate reduction localization was due to both increased shoot reduction and decreased root reduction. The pattern of N exchanges between the organs showed that the cycling of reduced N through the plant was important for both species. In particular, the downward transport of reduced N increased while nitrate assimilation in roots decreased. As a result, when induction was achieved, the N feeding of the roots appeared to be highly dependent on translocation from the leaves. 相似文献

Responses of nitrate assimilation and N translocation in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill) to reduced ambient air humidity 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

The impact of low humidity in ambient air on water relations,nitrate uptake, and translocation of recently absorbed nitrogen,was investigated in 5-week-old tomato (Lycopersicon esculentumMill cv. Ailsa Craig) plants grown hydroponically in a completenutrient solution. Plants were subjected to dry air (relativehumidity 24% for 6 h. The transpiration rate increasedseveral-fold and the shoot water content decreased by almost20%, whereas root water content was unaffected. No effect onin vitro nitrate reductase (NR) activity was detected when usingan EDTA-contraining assay buffer. Replacement of EDTA with Mg2+revealed a significant decline in shoot NR activity, which suggestsphosphorylation of the enzyme during the stress treatment. Plantswere grown in a split-root system, in which one root half wasfed 15N-nitrate during the treatment, in order to determinenitrate uptake and translocation of recently absorbed nitrogenin the plants. Uptake of nitrate was substantially inhibited,but the proportion of absorbed 15N that was translocated tothe shoots was only slightly affected. In untreated plants,71% of the 15N recovered in roots had been retranslocated fromthe shoots, whereas in plants subjected to stress the deliveryof 15N from shoots to roots appeared to be completely inhibited.The data show that lowered humidity in air has significant effectson both uptake of nitrate as well as translocation of nitrogenwithin the plants. Some of these effects appear to be commonwith those observed in plants subjected to reduced water potentialsin the root environment and point to the possibility of theshoot water relations being highly influential on nitrogen uptakeand translocation.

The effects of different intensities and durations of soil drought and re-watering on the nitrate uptake ability of maize roots were studied. Plants were grown in split-root containers with one part of the root system subjected to different intensities and durations of soil drought and re-watering while the other part of the root system was continuously watered to 23% (w/w) soil water content (70% water capacity). Experiments were performed in split-root containers to maintain a high growth rate, thus ensuring high nutrient demand of the shoot irrespective of the soil water regime. To avoid limitation of nitrate uptake by transport processes in the dry soil, and to ensure a uniform 14N/15N ratio at the root surface, 15N was applied to the roots by placing them into an aerated nutrient solution with 0.5 mM Ca(15NO3)2. Shoot elongation and biomass were only slightly affected by drought in one root compartment when the soil in the other root compartment was kept wet. Therefore, the growth-related nutrient demand of the shoot remained at a high level. At moderate levels of soil drought (10% w/w water content) the ability of the roots for N-uptake was not affected even after 10 d of drought. N-uptake ability was reduced to about 20% of the well-watered control only when the soil water content was decreased to 5%. Total soluble sugar content of the roots increased with increasing soil drought, indicating that low N-uptake ability of roots subjected to severe soil drought was not caused by low assimilate supply from the shoot. Nitrate uptake ability of roots maintained in very dry soil (5% soil water content w/w) even for a prolonged period of 8 d, recovered within 3 d following re-watering. Root growth increased one day after re-watering. A short-term experiment with excised roots formerly subjected to severe soil drought showed that nitrate uptake ability recovered in old and young root segments after 2 d of re-watering. Obviously, the increase in N-uptake ability after re-watering was caused not only by new root growth but also by recovery of the uptake ability of formerly stressed roots. 相似文献

The effect of ambient ammonium (0.5 millimolar [14NH4]2SO4) added to a nutrient solution containing 1.0 millimolar K15NO3, 99 atom per cent 15N, upon [15N]nitrate assimilation and utilization of previously accumulated [14N]nitrate was investigated. Corn seedlings, 5-day-old dark-grown decapitated (experiment I) and 10-day-old light-grown intact (experiment II), which had previously been grown on K14NO3 nutrient solution, were used. In both experiments, the presence of ambient ammonium decreased [15N]nitrate influx (20% after 6 hours) without significantly affecting the efflux of previously accumulated [14N]nitrate. In experiment I, relative reduction of [15N]nitrate (reduction as a percentage of influx) was inhibited more than was [15N]nitrate influx. Nevertheless, in experiment I, where all reduction could be assigned to the root system, the absolute inhibition of reduction during the 12 hours (13 micromoles/root) was less than the absolute inhibition in influx (24 micromoles/root). The data suggest that the influence of ammonium on [15N]nitrate influx could not be totally accounted for by the decrease in the potential driving force which resulted from restricted reduction; an additional impact on the influx process is indicated. Reduction of [15N]nitrate in experiment II after 6 hours accounted for 30 and 18% of the tissue excess 15N in the control and ammonium treatments, respectively. Relative distribution of 15N between roots and exudate (experiment I), or between roots and shoots (experiment II) was not affected by ammonium. On the other hand, the accumulation of [15N]nitrate in roots, shoots, and xylem exudate was enhanced by ammonium treatment compared to the control, whereas the accumulation of reduced 15N was inhibited. 相似文献

The effects of CO2-limited photosynthesis on 15NO3− uptake and reduction by maize (Zea mays, DeKalb XL-45) seedlings were examined in relation to concurrent effects of CO2 stress on carbohydrate levels and in vitro nitrate reductase activities. During a 10-hour period in CO2-depleted air (30 microliters of CO2/ per liter), cumulative 15NO3− uptake and reduction were restricted 22 and 82%, respectively, relative to control seedlings exposed to ambient air containing 450 microliters of CO2 per liter. The comparable values for roots of decapitated maize seedlings, the shoots of which had previously been subjected to CO2 stress, were 30 and 42%. The results demonstrate that reduction of entering nitrate by roots as well as shoots was regulated by concurrent photosynthesis. Although in vitro nitrate reductase activity of both tissues declined by 60% during a 10-hour period of CO2 stress, the remaining activity was greatly in excess of that required to catalyze the measured rate of 15NO3− reduction. Root respiration and soluble carbohydrate levels in root tissue were also decreased by CO2 stress. Collectively, the results indicate that nitrate uptake and reduction were regulated by the supply of energy and carbon skeletons required to support these processes, rather than by the potential enzymatic capacity to catalyze nitrate reduction, as measured by in vitro nitrate reductase activity. 相似文献

Nitrate uptake,nitrate reductase distribution and their relation to proton release in five nodulated grain legumes 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Nitrate uptake, nitrate reductase activity (NRA) and net proton release were compared in five grain legumes grown at 0.2 and 2 mM nitrate in nutrient solution. Nitrate treatments, imposed on 22-d-old, fully nodulated plants, lasted for 21 d. Increasing nitrate supply did not significantly influence the growth of any of the species during the treatment, but yellow lupin (Lupinus luteus) had a higher growth rate than the other species examined. At 0.2 mM nitrate supply, nitrate uptake rates ranged from 0.6 to 1.5 mg N g(-1) d(-1) in the order: yellow lupin > field pea (Pisum sativum) > chickpea (Cicer arietinum) > narrow-leafed lupin (L angustifolius) > white lupin (L albus). At 2 mM nitrate supply, nitrate uptake ranged from 1.7 to 8.2 mg N g(-1) d(-1) in the order: field pea > chickpea > white lupin > yellow lupin > narrow-leafed lupin. Nitrate reductase activity increased with increased nitrate supply, with the majority of NRA being present in shoots. Field pea and chickpea had much higher shoot NRA than the three lupin species. When 0.2 mM nitrate was supplied, narrow-leafed lupinreleased the most H+ per unit root biomass per day, followed by yellow lupin, white lupin, field pea and chickpea. At 2 mM nitrate, narrow-leafed lupin and yellow lupin showed net proton release, whereas the other species, especially field pea, showed net OH- release. Irrespective of legume species and nitrate supply, proton release was negatively correlated with nitrate uptake and NRA in shoots, but not with NRA in roots. 相似文献

A nitrate reductase inactivating factor was found in extractsof leaf blades, leaf sheaths, and roots of rice seedlings. Thefactor was nondialyzable, precipitable with (NH4)2SO4, and heatlabile. The factor from rice roots inactivated NADH nitratereductase, FMNH2 nitrate reductase, and NADH cytochrome c reductasefrom rice shoots, but had no effect on the activities of NADHdiaphorase and nitrite reductase. The factors from rice shoots,rice roots, and maize roots inactivated NADH nitrate reductaseprepared from cultured rice cells. The factor from culturedrice cells also inactivated rice shoot NADH nitrate reductase. The activity of the inactivating factor showed a diurnal changein shoots of rice seedlings grown with NO3 medium, althoughthe fluctuation was not large compared to that of NADH nitratereductase activity. When the seedlings were placed in darkness,the activity of the factor did not change during 20 hr withNO3 medium. However, the activity of the factor fluctuatedwith NO3 -free medium in light; its activity startedto increase at the 8th hour after transfer. NADH nitrate reductaseactivity from rice shoots declined rapidly during the first8 hr and gradually thereafter in both types of culture. (Received August 24, 1977; ) 相似文献

Studies were conducted with 9 to 12 day-old soybean (Glycine max [L.] Merr. cv. Williams) seedlings to determine the contribution of roots to whole plant NO(3) (-) reduction. Using an in vivo -NO(3) (-) nitrate reductase (NR) assay (no exogenous NO(3) (-) added to incubation medium) developed for roots, the roots accounted for approximately 30% of whole plant nitrate reductase activity (NRA) of plants grown on 15 mm NO(3) (-).Nitrogen analyses of xylem exudate showed that 53 to 66% of the total-N was as reduced-N, depending on the time of day of exudate collection. These observations supported enzyme data that suggested roots were contributing significantly to whole plant NO(3) (-) reduction. In short-term feeding studies using (15)N-NO(3) (-) significant and increasing atom percent (15)N excess was found in the reduced-N fraction of xylem exudate at 1.5 and 3 hours after feeding, respectively, which verified that roots were capable of reducing NO(3) (-).Estimated reduced-N accumulation by plants based on in vivo -NO(3) (-) NR assays of all plant parts substantially over-estimated actual reduced-N accumulation by the plants. Thus, the in vivo NR assay cannot be used to accurately estimate reduced-N accumulation but still serves as a useful assay for relative differences in treatment conditions. 相似文献
