外源茉莉酸甲酯对盐胁迫下小桐子幼苗渗透调节和脯氨酸代谢的影响

以小桐子幼苗为材料,采用人工气候箱内水培试验,设置不同浓度(0、20、40、60、80、100μmol·L^(-1))茉莉酸甲酯(MeJA)和150 mmol·L^(-1)NaCl胁迫处理,分析不同处理条件下小桐子幼苗叶片的组织活力、MDA含量、水势、含水量和叶片渗透调节物质脯氨酸、甜菜碱和可溶性糖的含量,以及脯氨酸代谢关键酶P5CS、OAT和甜菜碱合成关键酶BADH活性和相关基因表达水平,探讨外源茉莉酸甲酯对盐胁迫下小桐子幼苗渗透调节能力的影响及其机制。结果表明:(1)外源MeJA处理可提高盐胁迫下小桐子幼苗叶片的组织活力和叶片含水量,降低小桐子幼苗叶片的MDA含量和水势,且60μmol·L^(-1)浓度处理效果最佳。(2)外源MeJA处理可提高盐胁迫下小桐子幼苗叶片的脯氨酸、甜菜碱和可溶性糖的含量,且60μmol·L^(-1)MeJA处理显著提高了盐胁迫下小桐子幼苗内源茉莉酸、脯氨酸和甜菜碱的含量。(3)60μmol·L^(-1)MeJA也提高了盐胁迫下小桐子BADH、P5CS和OAT的活性,并上调了JcBADH、JcP5CS、JcOAT基因的表达水平,但MeJA降低了脯氨酸降解酶ProDH的活性,下调了JcProDH基因的表达。研究发现,在盐胁迫条件下,外源MeJA通过活化脯氨酸生物合成的谷氨酸和鸟氨酸途径,尤其是鸟氨酸途径,以及抑制脯氨酸降解途径来促进小桐子幼苗脯氨酸的积累,同时MeJA也激活了幼苗体内甜菜碱的生物合成过程,从而强化了盐胁迫下幼苗的渗透调节作用和耐盐性,表明MeJA诱导的渗透调节在小桐子耐盐性形成过程中发挥着重要作用。

外源水杨酸对盐胁迫下小桐子幼苗脯氨酸代谢的影响

以小桐子幼苗为材料,设置盐胁迫(200mmol·L-1 NaCl)和外源水杨酸处理(0~2.0mmol·L-1 SA)水培试验,通过检测幼苗叶片脯氨酸含量、脯氨酸代谢关键酶活性及相关代谢酶基因的表达水平,研究了外源水杨酸对盐胁迫下小桐子幼苗脯氨酸代谢机理的影响。结果显示:(1)外源0.9mmol·L-1 SA处理可显著提高盐胁迫下小桐子幼苗的脯氨酸含量,上调脯氨酸合成关键酶Δ1-吡咯琳-5-羧酸合成酶(P5CS)和鸟氨酸转氨酶(OAT)活性,以及上调JcP5CS和JcOAT基因的表达水平。(2)SA也显著抑制了脯氨酸降解酶ProDH的活性及JcProDH基因的表达水平。(3)SA处理还显著提高了盐胁迫下小桐子幼苗的组织活力,降低了叶片电解质渗漏率和丙二醛(MDA)含量。研究发现,外源SA可通过活化脯氨酸合成的谷氨酸途径和鸟氨酸途径,以及抑制脯氨酸的降解途径来促进盐胁迫下小桐子幼苗脯氨酸的积累;外源SA处理也可提高小桐子幼苗的耐盐性,且这种提高可能与SA诱导脯氨酸的积累密切相关。     

脯氨酸在植物非生物胁迫耐性形成中的作用

Overexpression of [delta]-Pyrroline-5-Carboxylate Synthetase Increases Proline Production and Confers Osmotolerance in Transgenic Plants

Proline (Pro) accumulation has been correlated with tolerance to drought and salinity stresses in plants. Therefore, overproduction of Pro in plants may lead to increased tolerance against these abiotic stresses. To test this possibility, we overexpressed in tobacco the mothbean [delta]-pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase, a bifunctional enzyme able to catalyze the conversion of glutamate to [delta]-pyrroline-5-carboxylate, which is then reduced to Pro. The transgenic plants produced a high level of the enzyme and synthesized 10- to 18-fold more Pro than control plants. These results suggest that activity of the first enzyme of the pathway is the rate-limiting factor in Pro synthesis. Exogenous supply of nitrogen further enhanced Pro production. The osmotic potentials of leaf sap from transgenic plants were less decreased under water-stress conditions compared to those of control plants. Overproduction of Pro also enhanced root biomass and flower development in transgenic plants under drought-stress conditions. These data demonstrated that Pro acts as an osmoprotectant and that overproduction of Pro results in the increased tolerance to osmotic stress in plants.

Proline Metabolism and Cross-Tolerance to Salinity and Heat Stress in Germinating Wheat Seeds

Germination/growth of wheat (Triticum aestivum L., cv. Zimai 1) seeds and changes in the levels of proline and protein as well as in activities of key enzymes involved in proline metabolism in response to salinity-, heat-stresses and their cross-stress were studied. With decreasing water potential caused by increasing concentrations of NaCl, germination percentage, fresh weight of seedlings and protein amount markedly decreased, whereas proline amount slightly increased. The activities of pyrroline-5-carboxylate synthetase (P5CS), ornithine aminotransferase (OAT), and proline dehydrogenase (PDH) peaked at ?0.2 MPa water potential. Germination percentage and amounts of proline and protein increased as germination temperature elevated to 25°C from 15°C, and decreased above 25°C; fresh weight of seedlings increased to 30°C from 15°C, and decreased above 30°C. However, the activities of P5CS, OAT and PDH gradually decreased with elevaing temperature. Seeds pretreated at 33°C or in ?0.8 MPa NaCl solution for various time length increased tolerance to subsequent salt + water stress or heat stress, as measured by germination percentage and fresh weight of seedlings 5 days after beginning of experiment. The acquisition of cross-tolerance resulting in limitation of negative stress effects does not relate directly to proline level and activities of P5CS, OAT and PDH involved in proline metabolism. Proline amount as measured four days or later after stress imposition cannot be considered a symptom of salt-, water- and heat-stress injury or an indicator of the resistance.     

Proline and Oxidative Metabolism in Young Pecan Trees Associated with Sulphate Accumulation

Pecan [Carya illinoinensis (Wangenh.) K. Koch.] is a deciduous tree whose fruits (nuts) are of high economic value and offer excellent nutritional benefits. However, soils high in sulphates can limit its growth and development. Working with 5-year-old trees of ‘Western Schley’ pecan grown in soils high in sulphates, the levels of proline and oxidative metabolism were recorded in the leaflets. Results showed that different levels of visible leaflet damage (‘sufficiency’, ‘low’, ‘moderate’ or ‘severe’) were associated with different levels of leaflet sulphates (mg kg⁻¹): ‘sufficiency’ (≤40), ‘low’ (41–60), ‘moderate’ (61–80) and ‘severe’ (80–100). ‘Severe’ sulphate damage was associated with significant reductions in chlorophyll (TChl) (17.04 μg g⁻¹), relative water content (RWC) (50%) and leaf area (LA), and with increases in the concentrations of total carotenoids (TC) and proline (Prl). Increases were also observed in the activities of the oxidative metabolism enzymes: superoxide dismutase (SOD) (1.82 units min⁻¹ g⁻¹), catalase (CAT) (2.86 μmol H₂O₂ min⁻¹ g⁻¹) and antioxidant capacity (AC) (87% DPPH inhibition). However, guaiacol peroxidase (GP) showed a reduction (2.97 nmol GSH min⁻¹ g⁻¹). An inverse relationship was found between the sulphate concentration in the leaflets with respect to the evaluated parameters of TChl, TC, RWC, LA, AC, and GP. Proline synthesis and antioxidant enzymatic activity indicate salt stress in pecan leaflets in orchards irrigated with deep-well water high in sulphates.
