生长在一个密集植物群中的植株由于相互遮蔽而不可能对风的影响做出反应,因为这样的环境条件(有限的光资源)对由风导致的矮小表型植株的生长是不利的。为弄清在密集植物群体中生长的植株对风的响应,利用藤本植物Potentilla reptans的10种基因型做实验材料,在温室条件下(光照强度为日光照的50%,红光/远红光=1.2)模拟冠层遮阴(相当于15%的日光照,红光/远红光=0.3),研究了藤本植物叶对风的响应。结果表明,Potentilla reptans的10种基因型植株在冠层遮阴下(低的红光/远红光)都表现出典型的避阴生长响应:较少的叶(叶生物量少),长而细但硬度系数高(higher Young's modulus)的叶柄;而受风影响的植株,无论遮阴或不遮阴,其植株的叶相对较多,叶柄短、粗且柔韧性强(lower Young's modulus),说明Potentilla reptans叶对风的响应并未因遮阴而被压抑,其可塑性变化不过是对复杂生境做出的一种生长权衡:尽可能增强抗风能力(矮壮)和获取最大光能(足够高而避免被遮光),即保证在存活下去的前提下获取最大的生长效率。 相似文献

Upward physical restraint of the normally horizontal bracts of poinsettia (Euphorbia pulcherrima Willd.) resulted in increased ethylene production and epinastic curvature of the petioles after 5 days. Downward restraint caused little change in ethylene production or epinasty, indicating that the enhanced ethylene production observed in petioles bent upwards is not due to the bending stress alone. Epinasty, measured upon removal of upward physical restraint, was not affected by spraying plants with aminoxyacetic acid to reduce ethylene production or with silver thiosulfate to prevent ethylene action. Removal of the bract blades prevented the epinastic response of the petiole, and the response was restored by applying indoleacetic acid to the cut petiole end. Redistribution of auxin appears to be responsible for both the epinasty and the increased ethylene production of reoriented poinsettia bracts. 相似文献

Leaf recruitment and elongation: an adaptive response to flooding in Villarsia reniformis 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Villarsia reniformis (Menyanthaceae) responds to flooding by rapid leaf elongation and continual recruitment of young, submerged leaves (4.3–6.5 per week). Leaf production is influenced by nutrient availability and water depth. Leaves are submerged and die as the water level rises, but are replaced by younger leaves able to broach the surface. Young petioles may elongate at more than 10 cm per day, but lose the ability to elongate after the blades are exposed to air more than twice. Young petioles produce new cells and existing cells elongate, but in older petioles fewer new cells are produced and cell elongation, whilst limited, is the main mechanism for petiole elongation. Continual recruitment implies a high cost for production of structural tissue, but ensures that leaves capable of rapid extension are within reach of the water surface and the plants can respond quickly to flooding. 相似文献

Senescent petioles of Coleus rehneltianus Berger. Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Saxa. Acer pseudoplatanus L., and senescent fruit stalks of Malus domestica Borkh. cv. Golden Delicious contain at least three abscission accelerating substances, which were isolated by extraction with methanol or with water and by diffusion into agar. They were purified by thin-layer chromatography and bioassayed in a special abscission test using Coleus explants. Two of these abscission accelerators could be conclusively identified by thin-layer chromatography and by gas chromatography as abscisic acid and xanthoxin. The third substance, which has acidic properties and is less polar than abscisic acid, could not be identified. The concentration and the absolute amount of abscisic acid in Coleus petioles were found to decrease during their development, young petioles having the highest concentration. No evidence was found that the three abscission accelerators or synthetic abscisic acid and xanthoxin affect the production of ethylene in Caleus explatns. The results obtained do not support the hypothesis that senescent petioles contain a specific “senescence factor”, which stimulates abscission via ethylene production. 相似文献

Brassica napus L. seedlings responded to low red to far-red (R/FR) ratio by elongating petioles and decreasing leaf expansion. These typical
shade avoidance traits were correlated with significantly decreased endogenous indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) levels and significantly
increased endogenous abscisic acid (ABA) levels and ethylene production. The transgenic (T) B. napus line bearing the bacterial ACC deaminase gene, did not respond to low R/FR ratio with altered petiole and leaf growth and
less ethylene (especially by petioles) was produced. As with WT seedlings, T seedlings had significantly lower IAA levels
in both petioles and leaves under low R/FR ratio. However, ABA levels of low R/FR ratio-grown T seedlings either increased
(petioles) or were unaltered (leaves). Our results further suggest that low R/FR ratio regulates endogenous IAA levels independently
of ethylene, but there may be an interaction between ABA and ethylene in leaf development. 相似文献

The experiments described were concerned with losses of moisturefrom laminae and petioles of leaves of white clover (Trifoliumrepens L.) detached from parent plants, and with the resistancesin the two pathways of loss of petiole moisture-via laminaeand direct from petiole surfaces. Methods involving determination of moisture losses from separatedlaminae and petioles were unsatisfactory and transpiration chamberswere therefore used to permit determinations with intact leaves. Up to 24 per cent of the total petiole moisture was lost viathe laminae, the amount frequently exceeding that initiallyresiding in the xylem of the petioles. Stomatal, cuticular, and external resistances were calculatedat several stages of wilting. Rates of loss of petiole moistureby both pathways were controlled by stomatal and external resistancesin the early stages and by cuticular and internal resistancesin the later stages. Under certain conditions, transpirationof petiole moisture via the lamina ceased earlier than mighthave been expected; estimates were made of the resistances involved. 相似文献

The effects of root treatments of brassinosteroid (BR) on the growth and development of hydroponically grown tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill cv Heinz 1350) were evaluated. There was a dramatic increase in petiole bending when the plants were treated with 0.5 to 1.0 micromolar BR. The leaf angle of the treated plants was almost three times that of untreated controls. BR-induced epinasty appeared to be due to stimulation of ethylene production. Excised petioles from BR-treated plants produced more than twice as much ethylene as did untreated controls. As ethylene production increased, the degree of petiole bending also increased, and inhibition of ethylene production by AOA or CoCl2 also inhibited epinasty. BR-treated plants had increased levels of the ethylene precursor 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) in the leaf tissue. ACC appeared to accumulate primarily in the petioles with the greatest amount of ACC accumulating in the youngest petioles. Time course evaluations revealed that BR treatment stimulated ACC production. As ACC accumulated, ethylene increased, resulting in epinasty. Little or no ACC was found in the xylem sap, indicating that there was a signal transported from the roots which stimulated ACC synthesis in the leaf tissue. 相似文献

A bscission of debladed petioles of Coleus was observed following spray applications of growth retardant chemicals and particularly of Phosfon D to the foliage. Sprays were applied to some branches, which were left intact (inducing branches), or to adjacent branches the leaves of which were later debladed (induced branches). In all experiments two applications of growth retardant chemicals were made, after which the induced branches were debladed. Treatments on induced branches accelerated the petiole abscission relative to the controls. Treatments on inducing branches, instead, decreased abscission speed of debladed petioles. The evidence suggests that phosfon D affects abscission by interfering with the indoleacetic acid mechanism. 相似文献

Localized expression of a proline-rich protein gene in juvenile and mature ivy petioles in relation to rooting competence 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Cell division and root initiation of excised juvenile, mature and half-expanded mature (My) leaf petioles of Hedera helix L. cultured in vitro were studied to determine whether these processes were correlated with localized expression of a proline-rich protein (PRP) gene. Petioles of all three types showed cell divisions at day 5 of culture in auxin-treated petioles but not in non-auxin-treated petioles. No cell division occurred in non-auxin-treated petioles even after day 9 of culture. Juvenile and one population of My auxin-treated petioles formed root primordia after 9 days of culture. Mature petioles and another population of My petioles formed only callus in response to auxin. The spatial and temporal expression pattern of a gene encoding a PRP was analyzed by in situ hybridization. The PRP mRNA was not detectable in petioles of any developmental phase immediately after excision. In both juvenile and mature petioles the PRP mRNA preferentially accumulated in the phloem parenchyma, the inner cortex adjacent to the phloem, and in cells surrounding ducts. Cell division was not required for PRP gene expression since both auxin-treated and non-treated juvenile and mature petioles had expression. Steady state levels of PRP mRNA were much lower in juvenile relative to mature petioles cultured in vitro. Auxin treatment reduced the steady state levels of PRP mRNA in My petioles but not in mature or juvenile petioles. These data are consistent with an inverse relationship between competence to form adventitious roots and PRP mRNA levels in the specific cell types from which root primordia form. Alternatively, the PRP mRNA level may serve as a molecular marker for developmental plasticity for root initiation. 相似文献

Several differences in the translocation pattern of radioactive kinetin in plant petioles were determined. Radioactivity from kinetin-8-14C (Kn*) moved from donor agar blocks through petioles of bean and cocklebur but not of cotton. There was no difference in basipetal or acropetal movement of radioactivity from Kn* in cocklebnr petioles, but there was in bean petioles. In bean petioles this movement was preferentially basipetal, but it was influenced by the age of the petiole and by the presence of added indoleactic acid. The combination treatment accelerated the basipetal movement of radioactivity from Kn* in young bean petioles and not in old ones. All data is based on radioactivity translocated into receiver agar blocks which were assayed individually in a liquid scintillation spectrometer. The results show that plant species, direction of transport, age of tissue, and presence of IAA can all influence the translocation of Kn* in petioles. 相似文献

The localisation of plum pox virus (PPV) in stem and petiole tissues of nine susceptible apricot cultivars and GF305 peach seedling has been studied. From stem and petioles consecutive transverse sections spaced at 1 mm were made and tissue sections printed onto nitrocellulose membrane. The resulting prints were probed with a specific antibody for plum pox virus, followed by a rabbit anti-goat antibody conjugated with horse radish peroxidase, in order to localise the virus within the tissues. In stems the virus was mainly present in xylem and pith. The possible presence of the virus in the sclerenchyma is discussed. In petioles the virus was present in epidermis and parenchymas, but not in vessels. The probable movement through the xylem and from cell to cell has been shown. 相似文献

Summary The uptake and distribution of potassium was examined in tomato plants, cv. Amberley Cross and Moneymaker, grown in peat/loam and given a nutrient feed either adequate or deficient in potassium.Detailed studies were also made of the distribution of potassium in various parts of tomato plants, cv. Amberley Cross, grown in sand and supplied with nutrient feeds containing four and seven concentrations of potassium. In these plants the concentration of potassium in stem, petiole and laminar tissue increased from the base to the apex of plants, irrespective of the potassium concentration in the nutrient feed. There was also a gradient of decreasing potassium concentration along leaves, from proximal to distal laminae. The concentration of potassium in all plant parts increased with increasing nutrient supply of potassium, petioles showing a greater response to nutrient potassium than laminar tissue.Marginal chlorosis and/or necrosis were observed when the potassium concentration in fully expanded leaves fell below 1.2 per cent of the dry weight for cv. Amberley Cross or 1.5 per cent for cv. Moneymaker. A 50 per cent incidence of chlorosis and/or necrosis occurred in leaf laminae containing 0.74 per cent potassium.Leaves rarely showed deficiency symptoms when the concentration of potassium in the petioles was higher than that in adjacent laminar tissue. However, chlorosis and/or necrosis occurred when the potassium concentration in petioles fell below that in laminae. In the diagnosis of the potassium status of tomato plants, the most suitable tissue for sampling for potassium analysis is considered to be the petioles of young fully expanded leaves. 相似文献

Effect of Waterlogged Soil Conditions on the Production of Ethylene and on Water Relationships in Tomato Plants 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The roots of tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill., cv.Moneymaker) were exposed to low concentrations of oxygen bywaterlogging the soil or by growing the plants in nutrient solutionflushed with nitrogen gas. After 24 h, the rate of ethyleneproduction by the petioles, main stem, and shoot apex was increasedby 46-fold and the petioles developed epinastic curvatures.Removing the roots did not reproduce these responses. The amountsof ethylene produced by shoot tissues in response to physicalwounding was greatly increased by waterlogging the soil. The production of ethylene by roots was suppressed by the absenceof oxygen. When the roots were transferred back to an aerobicenvironment ethylene production quickly exceeded that observedin roots maintained continuously in aerobic conditions. The enhanced rate of ethylene production in the shoots occurredin the absence of increased water stress as measured with aleaf pressure chamber; leaf water potentials were increasedrather than decreased by waterlogging for 30 h or more. Thiswas associated with stomatal closure and reduced transpiration.Resistance to water flow through the plant increased as transpirationdecreased in response to waterlogging. However, at similar ratesof transpiration, resistance was normally lower in waterloggedplants than in controls. 相似文献

Auxin transport and immobilization were followed in the petioles of intact plants of Coleus blumei Benth. after application of IAA-2-14C at a physiological concentration as droplets to the upper surface near the base of the blades of leaves #3 and #5. After 14 hr transportable and immobilized radiocarbon was found all along the petioles. Moreover, about half the total amount of 14C detected within the plant (= uptake) had moved beyond the petioles. This was true for leaves of both ages although the younger #3 petioles were only about half as long as the older #5 petioles. Because the uptake of radiocarbon by the #3 petioles was roughly half that of the #5 petioles, the absolute amounts immobilized per unit length of section were essentially uniform in the two petioles. On the contrary, the fractions remaining transportable within the #3 petiole sections averaged half those of the #5 petiole sections. The distribution of the transportable and the immobilized radioactive fractions along the petioles was characterized by high values near the apical application point, a decrease toward the middle of the petioles, and an increase to the level of the apical part toward the base of the petioles, which includes the abscission layer. The results have been discussed in connection with measurements of the cross sectional areas and the lengths of the epidermal and subepidermal cells along the petioles. An auxin transport and immobilization model, which assumes there are two different immobilization systems of different strength in the differently aged tissues, is outlined to explain the observations. 相似文献

Lily pads (Nymphaea odorata) exhibit heterophylly where a single plant may have leaves that are submerged, floating, or above (aerial) the surface of the water. Lily pads are placed in a unique situation because each leaf form is exposed to a distinctly different set of mechanical demands. While surface petioles may be loaded in tension under conditions of wind or waves, aerial petioles are loaded in compression because they must support the weight of the lamina. Using standard techniques, we compared the mechanical and morphological properties of both surface and aerial leaf petioles. Structural stiffness (EI) and the second moment of area (I) were higher in aerial petioles, although we detected no differences in other mechanical values (elastic modulus [E], extension ratio, and breaking strength). Morphologically, aerial petioles had a thicker rind, with increased collenchyma tissue and sclereid cell frequency. Aerial petioles also had a larger cross-sectional area and were more elliptical. Thus, subtle changes in the distribution of materials, rather than differences in their makeup, differentiate petiole forms. We suggest that the growth of aerial petioles may be an adaptive response to shading, allowing aerial leaves to rise above a crowded water surface. 相似文献

Two cDNA clones representing mRNAs which are differentially expressed during in vitro culture of juvenile and mature leaf petioles of English ivy ( Hedera helix L.) were isolated by differential screening. The mRNA represented by clone HW101 is expressed at a higher level in untreated juvenile than in untreated mature in-vitro-cultured petioles. Treatment of petioles with α-naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA) at the initiation of culture decreases HW101 mRNA levels in juvenile but not mature, petioles. In intact plants. HW101 mRNA is expressed at a higher level in juvenile laminae, petioles and stems than in identical tissues of mature plants. DNA sequence analysis indicates that HW1O1 cDNA is significantly similar to a light harvesting chlorophyll a/b binding protein gene ( Lhcb ) of pea. The gene represented by the second clone. HW103, is expressed at a higher level in mature than in juvenile in-vitro-cultured petisoles. Treatment of petioles with NAA at the initiation of culture decreases HW103 mRNA levels in chronologically young mature but not older mature and juvenile petioles. However, expression of the HW103 gene is not detectable in petioles, or in any other vegetative organ tested, immediately after excision. It is, however, expressed in developing seeds. In otherwise intact plants, the HW103 gene is expressed in wounded petioles of mature plants 5 days after wounding but not in wounded petioles of juvenile plants. It is also expressed at a higher level in wounded stems of mature plants than in those of juvenile plants. However, it is not expressed in wounded lamina of either juvenile or mature plants. DNA sequence analysis indicates that HW103 cDNA is similar to a cell wall proline rich protein (PRP) gene of soybean. This is the first report of differential expression of a PRP gene in tissues from juvenile and mature plants. Southern blot analysis of nuclear DNA of H. helix shows that both HW101 and HW103 are members of small gene families. 相似文献
