Dicotyledonous plants subjected to Fe-deficiency stress can decrease pH in the rhizosphere by proton excretion and reduce ferric iron by an activated reduction system in the plasma membranes of the root or by reductants released from the roots. The efficiency by which these plants take up Fe may strongly depend on their cation-anion balance. This study presents results of two experiments conducted to evaluate the effect of K, growth stage and cultivar on ionic balance and Fe acquisition of peanut (Arachis hypogaea L.) plants.Potassium applications to the high calcareous soil (30.3% CaCO3) favoured proton release, but did not ameliorate plant Fe acquisition. At the earliest stages of plant growth, anion uptake exceeded cation uptake due to intensive N uptake. With time, a shift in the ionic balance was observed as a result of predominant cation uptake. It appears that the relationship between H/OH-ion release and Fe nutrition of peanut plants is actually a complex phenomenon under soil conditions and depends on some soil parameters, such as CaCO3 content. Even by enhanced H-ion release Fe nutrition of plants can be impaired if soil CaCO3 is too high.  相似文献

In calcareous salt-affected soils, iron availability to plants is subjected to the effects of both sodium and bicarbonate ions. Our aim was to study interactive effects of salinity and iron deficiency on iron acquisition and root acidification induced by iron deficiency in Medicago ciliaris L., a species commonly found in saline ecosystems. Four treatments were used: C, control treatment, complete medium (CM) containing 30 microM Fe; S, salt treatment, CM with 75 mM NaCl; D, deficient treatment, CM containing only 1 microM Fe; DS, interactive treatment, CM containing 1 microM Fe with 75 mM NaCl. Our study showed that plant growth and chlorophyll content were much more affected by the interactive treatment than by iron deficiency or by the salt treatment, indicating an additive effect of these constraints in DS plants. These results could be partially explained by Na accumulation in shoots as well as a limitation of nutrient uptake such as Fe and K under salt stress, under iron deficiency, and especially under their combined effect. The study also showed that root acidification was deeply diminished when iron deficiency was associated with salinity. This probably explained the decrease of Fe uptake and suggested that root proton pump activity would be inhibited by salinity.  相似文献

Iron is vital for the establishment and function of symbiotic root nodules of legumes. Although abundant in the environment, Fe is often a limiting nutrient for plant growth due to its low solubility and availability in some soils. We have studied the mechanism of iron uptake in the root nodules of common bean to evaluate the role of nodules in physiological responses to iron deficiency. Based on experiments using full or partial submergence of nodulated roots in the nutrient solution, our results show that the nodules were affected only slightly under iron deficiency, especially when the nodules were submerged in nutrient solution in the tolerant cultivar. In addition, fully submerged root nodules showed enhanced acidification of the nutrient solution and showed higher ferric chelate reductase activity than that of partially submerged roots in plants cultivated under Fe deficiency. The main results obtained in this work suggest that in addition to preferential Fe allocation from the root system to the nodules, this symbiotic organ probably develops some mechanisms to respond to iron deficiency. These mechanisms were implied especially in nodule Fe absorption efficiency and in the ability of this organ to take up Fe directly from the medium.  相似文献

With the exception of the grasses, plants rely on a reduction-based iron (Fe) uptake system that is compromised by high soil pH, leading to severe chlorosis and reduced yield in crop plants. We recently reported that iron deficiency triggers the production of secondary metabolites that are beneficial for Fe uptake in particular at high external pH when iron is present but not readily available. The exact function of these metabolites, however, remains enigmatic. Here, we speculate on the mechanism by which secondary metabolites secreted by roots from Fe-deficient plants improve Fe acquisition. We suggest that the production and excretion of Iron Binding Compounds (IBCs) constitute an integrative, pH-insensitive component of the reduction-based iron uptake strategy in plants.  相似文献

T3238fer (Fe-inefficient) and T3238FER (Fe-efficient) tomato plants differ in their ability to utilize Fe and therefore can be used as test genotypes to locate sites of Fe uptake or to characterize changes that occur in roots in response to Fe stress (Fe deficiency). T3238fer does not respond to Fe stress. Release of hydrogen ions and reduction of Fe3+ to Fe2+ are two primary responses of T3238FER roots to Fe stress. Fe reduction sites were predominately in the young lateral roots, and between the regions of root elongation and maturation of the primary root. The use of BDPS (bathophenanthrolinedisulfonate) to trap Fe2+ did not affect the release of H+ ions or reduction by T3238FER roots. BPDS did not decrease Fe uptake until it exceeded the Fe concentration in the nutrient solution. A sevenfold increase in BPDS caused a threefold decrease in Fe taken up by the plant. Fe3+ is reduced to Fe2+ at root sites accessible to BPDS. Adding Zn decreased the response to Fe stress. Iron stress initiates the development of lateral roots, and we propose that most Fe enters the plant through these roots. The iron moves through protoxylem into the metaxylem of the primary root and then to the top of the plant as Fe citrate. Root environmental factors that are competitive or inhibit Fe-stress response, or genotypes that fail to respond to Fe stress, contribute to the development of Fe deficiency in plants.  相似文献

The plant availability of Fe from synthetic chelates has not been examined extensively for plants having the second strategy in iron uptake. Since these plants also excrete chelating agents, competition between natural and synthetic ligands is expected. This research was conducted to study the efficiency of different iron-chelates (Fe-EDTA, Fe-DTPA, Fe-EDDHA and a commercial product, Rexene) inLolium multiflorum iron nutrition. Plants were grown in a greenhouse with hydroponic culture using a buffered nutrient solution at pH 8. Initial iron concentration in the nutrient solution was near 0.5 mgl–1 and solutions were replaced weekly. In an other Fe-EDTA treatment the same amount of chelate was supplied by four additions during each week.Changes of iron concentration in the nutrient solution, harvestable yield, Fe, Mn, Cu and Zn content in plant tissue and chlorophylllevels in leaves are discussed as parameters to evaluate chelate efficacy. Fe-EDDHA, without inorganic iron in the medium was not as effective as the commercial product Rexene, containing Fe-EDDHA and some extra weakly complex iron, which gave the highest yields. Fe-EDTA applied once a week with fresh nutrient solution was less effective than a four part addition as seen from Chl1/[Fe] ratios.  相似文献

The influence of culture medium Fe2+ content on the resistance of Escherichia coli to hydroxyl radicals formed in the presence of Fe2+ and hydrogen peroxide in Fenton reaction was investigated. It was founded that a lack of Fe2+ in a culture medium increased resistance of bacteria to hydroxyl radicals but not to hydrogen peroxide. The suggestion was made that the lack of Fe2+ starts up synthesis of metabolites which inactivate hydroxyl radical or block Fe2+ ions participating in Fenton reaction. The phenomenon under study is considered to be a possible mechanism for survival of bacteria in oxidative stress and iron ions deficiency.  相似文献

Iron is the most abundant transition metal in the earth's crust. It cycles easily between ferric (oxidized; Fe(III)) and ferrous (reduced; Fe(II)) and readily forms complexes with oxygen, making this metal a central player in respiration and related redox processes. However, 'loose' iron, not within heme or iron-sulfur cluster proteins, can be destructively redox-active, causing damage to almost all cellular components, killing both cells and organisms. This may explain why iron is so carefully handled by aerobic organisms. Iron uptake from the environment is carefully limited and carried out by specialized iron transport mechanisms. One reason that iron uptake is tightly controlled is that most organisms and cells cannot efficiently excrete excess iron. When even small amounts of intracellular free iron occur, most of it is safely stored in a non-redox-active form in ferritins. Within nucleated cells, iron is constantly being recycled from aged iron-rich organelles such as mitochondria and used for construction of new organelles. Much of this recycling occurs within the lysosome, an acidic digestive organelle. Because of this, most lysosomes contain relatively large amounts of redox-active iron and are therefore unusually susceptible to oxidant-mediated destabilization or rupture. In many cell types, iron transit through the lysosomal compartment can be remarkably brisk. However, conditions adversely affecting lysosomal iron handling (or oxidant stress) can contribute to a variety of acute and chronic diseases. These considerations make normal and abnormal lysosomal handling of iron central to the understanding and, perhaps, therapy of a wide range of diseases.  相似文献

Iron chlorosis is very common on alkaline soils such as calcareous ones, since iron availability is limited by high pH. Under these conditions of iron deficiency, graminaceous plant species induce special mechanisms for iron acquisition, involving enhanced release of iron chelators called phytosiderophores. On the other hand, it is known that most of salt soils have alkaline pH. So, plants growing on this kind of soils are often subjected simultaneously to salinity and iron deficiency. This work aimed at (i) studying the physiological responses of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) to iron deficiency, and (ii) evaluating the effect of salt on the iron nutrition and the phytosiderophore release. For this purpose, seedlings of Hordeum vulgare L. were cultivated under controlled conditions, either in a complete nutrient solution with or without NaCl, or in an iron free nutrient solution containing or not NaCl. The plant morphological aspect, chlorophyll content of young leaves, iron status, biomass production, and phytosiderophore release by roots were assessed. Plants subjected to Fe deficiency exhibited a severe chlorosis, accompanied by a significant biomass reduction. These plants developed more lateral roots than the control with a highly stimulated phytosiderophore release. However, the latter was greatly diminished when iron deficiency was associated to salinity. A depressive effect of salt on iron acquisition in plants subjected only to salt stress which was also observed and further confirmed by the important decrease of efficiency in iron acquisition. These results suggest that salinity may reduce capacity of plants to acquire iron from alkaline soils by inhibiting phytosiderophore release.  相似文献

Two soybean varieties that differentially absorb and translocate iron were used to compare root-sap citrate with stem-exudate citrate as they are involved in the uptake of Fe and Ca. The status of Fe and PO4 in the prenutrient solution determined the citrate concentration in the root sap and the citrate translocated in the stem exudate. There was a parallel between the iron and the citrate translocated in the stem exudate, but this relationship did not appear to exist for the citrate and Fe concentrations in the root sap. Iron stress (deficiency) promoted the accumulation of citrate in the root-sap, but there was not a concomitant increase of citrate in the stem exudate. In iron-deficient soybeans, phosphate stress also promoted the accumulation of citrate in the root sap, and here, stem-exudate citrate and root-sap citrate more nearly followed the same trends. The citrate pool in the root appears to result from a deficiency of iron and may not be directly involved in the absorption and translocation of iron from the growth medium. Increasing amounts of phosphate in the prenutrient decreased both the citrate and Fe in the root sap and stem exudate. The factors controlling the uptake of Fe are rather specific and are not related to the uptake of radioactive Ca 45 in soybeans regardless of soybean variety, degree of iron stress, or citrate concentration in the root.  相似文献

Iron deficiency is a stress frequently experienced by plants, owing to the low solubility of Fe(III) salts in neutral or alcaline soils. Iron is an essential plant nutrient as it is involved in fundamental metabolic processes. Furthermore, it is a constituent of important antioxidant enzymes, which are involved in maintaining the balance of cell redox state. UV-B radiation is an environmental problem which can alter the redox state of plants through the increased production of reactive oxygen species. In order to investigate if iron deficiency influences the antioxidant response of plants to UV-B radiation, barley seedlings, Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Express, were exposed to UV-B radiation while growing in nutrient solutions with or without iron. After eight days of growth, plants were harvested and analysed. Results show that, during the 8 days of the experimental period, in neither of the two nutritional conditions considered does UV-B exposure reduce shoot weight or induce evident alterations of thylakoid membranes in respect to controls. However, different responses to UV-B radiation between iron-deficient and iron-sufficient plants were observed at the level of parameters related to oxidative stress. In fact, in iron-sufficient plants the contents of photosynthetic pigments and ascorbate, and the enzyme activities of ascorbate peroxidase (EC 1.11.1.11) and catalase (EC 1.11.1.6) were not affected by UV-B radiation. Conversely, in iron-deficient plants the contents of ascorbate and zeaxanthin and the activity of ascorbate peroxidase increased under UV-B exposure, whereas catalase activity decreased. Furthermore, UV-B radiation induced an increase of hydrogen peroxide content which was higher in iron-deprived plants than in iron-sufficient ones. This may indicate that plants growing in an environment enriched in UV-B radiation may develop a high level of oxidative stress when iron supply is limited.  相似文献

The effects of iron deficiency on the composition of the xylem sap and leaf apoplastic fluid have been characterized in sugar beet (Beta vulgaris Monohil hybrid). pH was estimated from direct measurements in apoplastic fluid and xylem sap obtained by centrifugation and by fluorescence of leaves incubated with 5-carboxyfluorescein and fluorescein isothiocyanate-dextran. Iron deficiency caused a slight decrease in the pH of the leaf apoplast (from 6.3 down to 5.9) and xylem sap (from 6.0 down to 5.7) of sugar beet. Major organic acids found in leaf apoplastic fluid and xylem sap were malate and citrate. Total organic acid concentration in control plants was 4.3 mM in apoplastic fluid and 9.4 mM in xylem sap and increased to 12.2 and 50.4 mM, respectively, in iron-deficient plants. Inorganic cation and anion concentrations also changed with iron deficiency both in apoplastic fluid and xylem sap. Iron decreased with iron deficiency from 5.5 to 2.5 microM in apoplastic fluid and xylem sap. Major predicted iron species in both compartments were [FeCitOH](-1) in the controls and [FeCit(2)](-3) in the iron-deficient plants. Data suggest the existence of an influx of organic acids from the roots to the leaves via xylem, probably associated to an anaplerotic carbon dioxide fixation by roots.  相似文献

Uptake of iron in the halotolerant alga Dunaliella salina is mediated by a transferrin-like protein (TTf), which binds and internalizes Fe(3+) ions. Recently, we found that iron deficiency induces a large enhancement of iron binding, which is associated with accumulation of three other plasma membrane proteins that associate with TTf. In this study, we characterized the kinetic properties of iron binding and internalization and identified the site of iron internalization. Iron deficiency induces a 4-fold increase in Fe binding, but only 50% enhancement in the rate of iron uptake and also increases the affinity for iron and bicarbonate, a coligand for iron binding. These results indicate that iron deprivation leads to accumulation and modification of iron-binding sites. Iron uptake in iron-sufficient cells is preceded by an apparent time lag, resulting from prebound iron, which can be eliminated by unloading iron-binding sites. Iron is tightly bound to surface-exposed sites and hardly exchanges with medium iron. All bound iron is subsequently internalized. Accumulation of iron inhibits further iron binding and internalization. The vacuolar inhibitor bafilomycin inhibits iron uptake and internalization. Internalized iron was localized by electron microscopy within vacuolar structures that were identified as acidic vacuoles. Iron internalization is accompanied by endocytosis of surface proteins into these acidic vacuoles. A novel kinetic mechanism for iron uptake is proposed, which includes two pools of bound/compartmentalized iron separated by a rate-limiting internalization stage. The major parameter that is modulated by iron deficiency is the iron-binding capacity. We propose that excessive iron binding in iron-deficient cells serves as a temporary reservoir for iron that is subsequently internalized. This mechanism is particularly suitable for organisms that are exposed to large fluctuations in iron availability.  相似文献

Overcoming Fe deficiency by a transgenic approach in rice   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
Iron (Fe) is an essential microelement for plant growth. Fe availability is particularly limited on calcareous soils, which have high pH. Approximately 30% of the world's soils are considered calcareous with low Fe availability, which results in extensive areas of Fe deficiency in plants. Some graminaceous plants are known to secrete high amounts of mugineic acid family phytosiderophores (MAs) under Fe deficiency. This Fe acquisition system is called the Strategy-II mechanism. Tolerance to Fe deficiency in graminaceous plants is thought to depend on the quantity of MAs secreted by plants under Fe deficiency stress. This system was utilized to enhance the tolerance of rice to low Fe availability. Transgenic rice expressing the barley naat genes, one of the genes for the enzymes on the biosynthetic pathway of MAs, showed tolerance to low Fe availability when grown in a calcareous soil.  相似文献

It has been hypothesized that nitrate (NO(3)(-)) nutrition might induce iron (Fe) deficiency chlorosis by inactivation of Fe in the leaf apoplast (H.U. Kosegarten, B. Hoffmann, K. Mengel [1999] Plant Physiol 121: 1069-1079). To test this hypothesis, sunflower (Helianthus annuus L. cv Farnkasol) plants were grown in nutrient solutions supplied with various nitrogen (N) forms (NO(3)(-), NH(4)(+) and NH(4)NO(3)), with or without pH control by using pH buffers [2-(N-morpholino)ethanesulfonic acid or 4-(2-hydroxyethyl)-1-piperazineethanesulfonic acid]. It was shown that high pH in the nutrient solution restricted uptake and shoot translocation of Fe independently of N form and, therefore, induced Fe deficiency chlorosis at low Fe supply [1 micro M ferric ethylenediaminedi(O-hydroxyphenylacetic acid)]. Root NO(3)(-) supply (up to 40 mM) did not affect the relative distribution of Fe between leaf apoplast and symplast at constant low external pH of the root medium. Although perfusion of high pH-buffered solution (7.0) into the leaf apoplast restricted (59)Fe uptake rate as compared with low apoplastic solution pH (5.0 and 6.0, respectively), loading of NO(3)(-) (6 mM) showed no effect on (59)Fe uptake by the symplast of leaf cells. However, high light intensity strongly increased (59)Fe uptake, independently of apoplastic pH or of the presence of NO(3)(-) in the apoplastic solution. Finally, there are no indications in the present study that NO(3)(-) supply to roots results in the postulated inactivation of Fe in the leaf apoplast. It is concluded that NO(3)(-) nutrition results in Fe deficiency chlorosis exclusively by inhibited Fe acquisition by roots due to high pH at the root surface.  相似文献

This solution culture study examined the effect of the deposition of iron plaque on zinc uptake by Fe-deficient rice plants. Different amounts of iron plaque were induced by adding Fe(OH)3 at 0, 10, 20, 30, and 50 mg Fe/L in the nutrient solution. After 24 h of growth, the amount of iron plaque was correlated positively with the Fe(OH)3 addition to the nutrient solution. Increasing iron plaque up to 12.1 g/kg root dry weight increased zinc concentration in shoots by 42% compared to that at 0.16 g/kg root dry weight. Increasing the amount of iron plaque further decreased zinc concentration. When the amounts of iron plaque reached 24.9 g/kg root dry weight, zinc concentration in shoots was lower than that in shoots without iron plaque, implying that the plaque became a barrier for zinc uptake. While rice plants were pre-cultured in –Fe and +Fe nutrient solution in order to produce the Fe-deficient and Fe-sufficient plants and then Fe(OH)3 was added at 20, 30, and 50 mg Fe/L in nutrient solution, zinc concentrations in shoots of Fe-deficient plants were 54, 48, and 43 mg/kg, respectively, in contrast to 32, 35, and 40 mg/kg zinc in shoots of Fe-sufficient rice plants. Furthermore, Fe(OH)3 addition at 20 mg Fe/L and increasing zinc concentration from 0.065 to 0.65 mg Zn/L in nutrient solution increased zinc uptake more in Fe-deficient plants than in Fe-sufficient plant. The results suggested that root exudates of Fe-deficient plants, especially phytosiderophores, could enhance zinc uptake by rice plants with iron plaque up to a particular amount of Fe.  相似文献

Iron is an essential element for plants as well as all living organisms, functioning in various physiological and biochemical processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, DNA synthesis, and N2 fixation. In the soil, Fe bioavailability is extremely low, especially under aerobic conditions and at high pH ranges. In contrast, plants with nodules on their roots that fix atmospheric nitrogen need much more iron. To highlight the physiological traits underlying the tolerance of N2-fixing common bean to iron deficiency, two genotypes were hydroponically cultivated in a greenhouse: Coco nain (CN) and Coco blanc (CB). Plants were inoculated with an efficient strain of Rhizobium tropici, CIAT899, and received a nutrient solution added with 0 µM Fe (severe Fe deficiency, SFeD), 5 µM Fe (moderate Fe deficiency, MFeD) or 45 µM Fe (control, C). Several physiological parameters related to photosynthesis and symbiotic nitrogen fixation were then analyzed. Iron deficiency significantly reduced whole plant and nodule growth, chlorophyll biosynthesis, photosynthesis, leghemoglobin (LgHb), nitrogenase (N2ase) activity, nitrogen, and Fe nutrition, with some genotypic differences. As compared to CB, CN maintained better Fe allocation to shoots and nodules, allowing it to preserve the integrity of its photosynthetic and symbiotic apparatus, thus maintaining the key functional traits of the plant metabolism (chlorophyll biosynthesis and photosynthesis in shoots, leghemoglobin accumulation, and nitrogenase activity in root nodules). Plant growth depends on photosynthesis, which needs to be supplied with sufficient iron and nitrogen. Fe deficiency stress index (FeD-SI) and Fe use efficiency (FeUE) are two physiological traits of tolerance that discriminated the studied genotypes.  相似文献

The mechanism of iron (Fe) uptake from the leaf apoplast into leaf mesophyll cells was studied to evaluate the putative Fe inactivation as a possible cause of Fe deficiency chlorosis. For this purpose, sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) and faba bean plants (Vicia faba L.) were precultured with varied Fe and bicarbonate (HCO 3 - ) supply in nutrient solution. After 2–3 weeks preculture, FeIII reduction and 59Fe uptake by leaf discs were measured in solutions with Fe supplied as citrate or synthetic chelates in darkness. The data clearly indicate that FeIII reduction is a prerequisite for Fe uptake into leaf cells and that the Fe nutritional status of plants does not affect either process. In addition, varied supply of Fe and HCO 3 - to the root medium during preculture had no effect on pH of the xylem sap and leaf apoplastic fluid. A varied pH of the incubation solution had no significant effect on FeIII reduction and Fe uptake by leaf discs in the physiologically relevant pH range of 5.0–6.0 as measured in the apoplastic leaf fluid. It is concluded that Fe inactivation in the leaf apoplast is not a primary cause of Fe deficiency chlorosis induced by bicarbonate. This revised version was published online in June 2006 with corrections to the Cover Date.  相似文献
