Both diaheliotropic (sun-tracking) and paraheliotropic (cupping) leaf movements are described for the Arizona Lupine [ Lupinus arizonicus (Wats.) Wats.]. The leaf movements are shown to be non-circadian in nature. Evidence is presented that an active K + ion transport mechanism is involved in these turgor-related leaf movements. Increasing concentrations of lanthanum, a known ion transport inhibitor, showed increasing inhibition of both leaf movements. Increasing concentrations of other salts did not inhibit either leaf movements, instead there was an increase in the cupping leaf movement (elevation of the leaflets) which is shown to be a water stress response. 相似文献

The pulvinus, located at the base of soybean leaflets, is both the light perception and motor organ for heliotropic leaf movements. Our objective was to investigate the role of plasma membrane H +/ATPase and TEA-sensitive K + channels in mediating pulvinar response to light. The plasma membrane H+/ATPase activator, fusicoccin, plasma membrane H +/ATPase inhibitors, vanadate and erythrosin-B, and the K + channel blocker TEA were introduced to the intact pulvinus through the transpiration stream. The pulvinus was illuminated by a vertical light beam of 1,400 μmol m -2 s -1 to stimulate leaf movement. Leaf orientation was measured every 5 min for 60 min of illumination. All compounds tested inhibited pulvinar bending, but concentration and uptake time required for inhibition varied: 12.5 μM fusicoccin reduced leaf movement after 3 hr uptake, 2 mM vanadate reduced leaf movement after 6 hr uptake, 100 μM erythrosin-B reduced leaf movement after 3 hr uptake, and 15 mM TEA reduced leaf movement after 6 hr uptake. In all cases final leaf angle was reduced by higher concentrations and/or increased time for uptake of the chemical into the pulvinus. Results support the hypothesis that the proximal mechanism of heliotropic movement is similar to that of nyctinastic movements. 相似文献

The K +-sensitive fluorescent dye benzofuran isophthalate (PBFI) and the pH-sensitive fluorescein isothiocyanate dextran (FITC-Dextran)
were used to investigate the influence of light/dark transitions on apoplastic pH and K + concentration in intact leaves of Vicia faba L. with fluorescence ratio imaging microscopy. Illumination by red light led to an acidification in the leaf apoplast due
to light-induced H + extrusion. Similar apoplastic pH responses were found on adaxial and abaxial sides of leaves after light/dark transition.
Stomatal opening resulted only in a slight pH decrease (0.2 units) in the leaf apoplast. Gradients of apoplastic pH exist
in the leaf apoplast, being about 0.5–1.0 units lower in the center of the xylem veins as compared with surrounding cells.
The apoplastic K + concentration in intact leaves declined during the light period. A steeper light-induced decrease in apoplastic K +, possibly caused by higher apoplastic K +, was found on the abaxial side of leaves concentration. Simultaneous measurements of apoplastic pH and K + demonstrated that a light-induced decline in apoplastic K + concentration indicative of net K + uptake into leaf cells occurs independent of apoplastic pH changes. It is suggested that the driving force that is generated
by H + extrusion into the leaf apoplast due to H +-ATPase activity is sufficient for passive K + influx into the leaf cells.

Maksymowych , Roman . (Villanova U., Villanova, Pa.) Quantitative analysis of leaf development in Xanthium pensylvanicum. Amer. Jour. Bot. 46(9): 635–644. Illus. 1959.—An attempt was made to find a quantitative way of describing the development of the leaf and to correlate the developmental processes, designating precisely their sequence. The processes were presented in terms of the absolute and relative rates of leaf length, expansion of lamina in surface, increase in thickness, rates of cell division of leaf 9 and 13, and tissue differentiation of 3 portions of the lamina. All rates were estimated over the entire period of development, from initiation of a primordium to its maturity. The leaf plastochron index ( L.P.I.) was used as a morphological time-scale. The relative plastochron rates were used for the purpose of correlation of the developmental processes. Leaf 9 elongates exponentially up to 3.0 L.P.I. with an average relative rate ( dln L/ dpl) of about 0.78 pl -1, and it stops growing around 8.0 L.P.I. The lamina stops elongating about 1.5 plastochrons before the petiole. The tip of the lamina expands its surface at a constantly lower relative rate than the middle and the basal portions of the blade. The average relative rate of expansion in area ( dln A/ dpl) for the whole lamina is 1.7pl -1 during the exponential stage. Differentiation of the laminar tissues proceeds basipetally, from the tip toward the base of the leaf. The relative rate of expansion of lamina in thickness ( dln T/ dpl) is 0.55 pl -1 at 1.5 L.P.I. and after 4.0 L.P.I. all cells cease elongating in a plane perpendicular to the leaf surface. The formation of cells proceeds exponentially up to 3.0 L.P.I. and about this time cell divisions stop in all parts of the lamina. The mean relative rate of cell formation ( dln C/ dpl) at the exponential phase is 1.41 pl -1, an increase of about 31% per day. At least 27 generations of cells are involved in the process of leaf formation and the generation time was calculated to be 0.5 plastochron or 2.2 days. 相似文献

Leaf growth consists of two basic processes, cell division and cell enlargement. DNA synthesis is an integral part of cell division and can be studied with autoradiographic techniques and incorporation of some labeled precursor. Studies were made on the synthesis of nuclear DNA through incorporation of 3H-thymidine in various parts of the lamina during the entire course of leaf development of Xanthium pennsylvanicum. The time course analysis of DNA synthesis was correlated with cell division and rates of cell enlargement. Significant differences in 3H-thymidine incorporation were found in various parts of the lamina. Cell division and DNA synthesis were highest in the early stages of development. Since no 3H-thymidine was incorporated after cessation of cell division (LPI 2.8) in the leaf lamina, it appears that DNA synthesis is not needed for enlargement and differentiation of Xanthium cells. Rates of cell enlargement were negligible in the early development and reached their maximum after cessation of mitoses, between plastochron ages (LPI) 3 and 4. Cells matured between LPI's 5 and 6. Enzymatic activity was correlated with cell division and cell differentiation at various stages of leaf development. 相似文献

The mitotic and biosynthetic activities of the marginal and plate meristems were studied during the entire course of leaf development of Xanthium pennsylvanicum. In contrast to statements in the literature, marginal meristem activity is long in duration, as assayed by the mitotic counts and H 3-thymidine incorporation. This me istem is active 23 days. The plate meristem is active for an additional 3 days after cessation of cell division in the marginal meristem, but the total duration of its mitotic activity is also approximately 23 days. Numerous periclinal cell divisions of the plate meristem form additional cell layers and contribute to the growth of the lamina in thickness. Incorporation of H 3-thymidine increased during the course of leaf development. Cells between plastochronic ages 0 and 2.0 incorporated more of the radioisotopic precursor than those of younger leaf primordia. The uptake and incorporation of H 3-thymidine into nuclear DNA was more sluggish during the early stages of development than in the more expanded leaves. No DNA synthesis was demonstrated after cessation of cell division in the leaf lamina. Metabolic or endomitotic DNA synthesis after leaf plastochron index (LPI) 3.0 seems improbable. No significant differences in the incorporation of H 3-thymidine could be demonstrated between the marginal and plate meristems. This would indicate no distinct biosynthetic differences between the two meristems. The definitions of the marginal and plate meristems of Xanthium leaves were formulated in view of the above findings. 相似文献

The relationship between leaf K + concentration, in vitro dehydration, and nonstomatal-controlled photosynthesis was investigated using leaf slices that were vacuum infiltrated with media containing varying sorbitol concentrations. The leaf slices were from plants either supplied with complete or K +-deficient medium throughout a 35-day growth period. During this time, leaf K + concentration, water potential, osmotic potential, and turgor pressure were monitored. Leaf K + concentration averaged 239 micomoles per gram (fresh weight) in control plants, and dropped to 74.3 micromoles per gram (fresh weight) in K +-deficient plants. Less negative osmotic potentials and resultant turgor loss in K +-deficient plants indicated that the osmotically active pool of cellular K + was lower in those plants. The decrease in leaf K+ concentration enhanced the dehydration inhibition of photosynthesis. For example, increasing sorbitol from 0.33 to 0.5 molar during incubation inhibited photosynthesis in the controls by 14% or less. This same protocol resulted in an inhibition of photosynthesis by as much as 41% in K+-deficient tissue. In contrast to the data obtained with leaf slices, dehydration inhibition of isolated chloroplast photosynthesis was not affected by K+ status of parent plant material. These data are consistent with the hypothesis that one effect of leaf K+ deficiencies on photosynthetic response to dehydration may be mediated by extra-choloroplastic factors. Ammonium ions, which facilitate stromal alkalinization, reversed the increased sensitivity of K+-deficient leaf slice photosynthesis to cell dehydration. However, NH4+ had no effect on photosynthesis of K+-deficient leaf slices under nonhypertonic conditions. These data suggest that endogenous extra-chloroplastic K+ may modulate dehydration inhibition of photosynthesis, possibly by facilitating stromal alkalinization. 相似文献

The influence of alkali ions on the circadian leaf movements of Oxalis regnellii Mig. was investigated. Ions were given to the oscillating system via the transpiration stream of cut stalks in nutrient medium. Chloride solutions of Rb +, Cs +, Na + and K + were tested and the results compared to previously published LiCl-results. The period of the circadian leaf movements was unaffected by a continual addition of Na + or K + to the nutrient medium (at least up to 40 m M). Rb +, in the concentration of 2.5 or 5 m M, caused a shortening of the period when applied continuously. Rb + concentrations up to 60 m M were tested. Cs + ions caused only lengthenings of the circadian period. Cs + concentrations up to 40 m M were tested. Cs + resembled Li + in producing period lengthenings, but was not as effective as Li + when compared on a concentration basis. Toxicity of the effective ions was in the following order: Li +Cs +Rb +, Rb + pulses (50 m M, 4 h) phase-shifted the rhythm and caused advances. A phase response curve was determined and the maximum steady state advances were of the order of 1 h. The dual effect of the Rb + ions is discussed and is assumed to be due to two counteracting processes, exemplified by Rb +-sensitive ATPase-controlled pumping processes and protein synthesis. For comparison, the effects of Rb + and Li + in human depressive disorders is also discussed in relation to their influence on circadian systems. It is emphasized that Rb + and K + behave differently and are not interchangeable in their action on circadian systems. 相似文献

The hydraulic conductance of the leaf lamina ( Klamina) substantially constrains whole‐plant water transport, but little is known of its association with leaf structure and function. Klamina was measured for sun and shade leaves of six woody temperate species growing in moist soil, and tested for correlation with the prevailing leaf irradiance, and with 22 other leaf traits. Klamina varied from 7.40 × 10 ?5 kg m ?2 s ?1 MPa ?1 for Acer saccharum shade leaves to 2.89 × 10 ?4 kg m ?2 s ?1 MPa ?1 for Vitis labrusca sun leaves. Tree sun leaves had 15–67% higher Klamina than shade leaves. Klamina was co‐ordinated with traits associated with high water flux, including leaf irradiance, petiole hydraulic conductance, guard cell length, and stomatal pore area per lamina area. Klamina was also co‐ordinated with lamina thickness, water storage capacitance, 1/mesophyll water transfer resistance, and, in five of the six species, with lamina perimeter/area. However, for the six species, Klamina was independent of inter‐related leaf traits including leaf dry mass per area, density, modulus of elasticity, osmotic potential, and cuticular conductance. Klamina was thus co‐ordinated with structural and functional traits relating to liquid‐phase water transport and to maximum rates of gas exchange, but independent of other traits relating to drought tolerance and to aspects of carbon economy. 相似文献

Northern red oak ( Quercus rubra L.) leaves were shown to mature progressively from base to tip of the lamina based on studies of growth rates, anatomical differentiation, and 14C-transport. Lamina expansion in both length and width ceased in the basal quarter of the leaf before the apical quarter. Cell expansion and tissue differentiation were more advanced at the base than at the tip of leaves at 10%–20% of full expansion. Physiological data supported the morphological and anatomical data. Sink activity was examined by following the distribution of 14C imported into sink leaves with direct vascular connections to the source leaf to assure uniform assimilate supply to the sink leaves. Leaves approximately 50% of full expansion imported five to seven times more l4C-assimilates into the tip than into the base of the leaf, consistent with continued sink activity in the leaf tip after import by the leaf base has ceased. Transport of 14C from portions of the leaf, indicating source activity, occurred first in the basal portion of the lamina. The base functioned as a source at approximately 40% of full expansion; the tip, at approximately 60%. Thus, northern red oak displays an acropetal pattern of leaf expansion and differentiation, unlike the more typical pattern of basipetal leaf development defined in many other dicotyledonous genera with simple leaves. 相似文献

The objectives of this study were to determine the effects of elevated CO 2 on relationships between leaf area (A) and linear leaf dimensions (length [L] and width [W]) and leaf dry weight (M) in soybeans ( Glycine max (L.) Merr. cv. Bragg). Based on dimensional measurements made on trifoliolates 1–6 for plants grown under three CO 2 levels (348, 502 and 645 μl l −-1), the best predictor for both trifoliolate leaf area and for fully expanded central leaflets of the trifoliolates was an equation of the form A = b o + b 1L·W; these relationships were unaffected by CO 2, although there was a small effect of leaf position. For expanding central leaflets of the fifth trifoliolate, no CO 2, leaf size (age) or CO 2 × leaf size effect was found. Specific leaf weight (i.e., M/A) was significantly affected by CO 2, increasing with increasing CO 2. Hence, trifoliolate dry weight can be nondestructively estimated from trifoliolate area using the equation M = 0.097 + (6.71 × 10 −-3 + 1.04 × 10 −-6[CO 2])A, where [CO 2] is mean daytime CO 2 concentration of the growth environment. 相似文献

Carrot cells ( Daucus carota L.) in suspension culture exposed to medium containing 150 mM NaCl plasmolyzed immediately and deplasmolyzed within 35 to 40 hr. Three days after exposure to NaCl the cells resumed proliferation. Accommodation to salinity and renewal of growth was accompanied by absorption of Na + from the external medium. On completion of deplasmolysis, K + concentration in the cytosol doubled and Na + concentration approximated that of K +. The vacuolar K + concentration was practically unchanged while Na + accumulated to a concentration double that of K +. Cl −- accumulation started later and eventually exceeded that of Na + plus K +. Malate was redistributed during accommodation to salinity and eventually returned to its initial level. Amino acid content in the cytosol increased fivefold, while in the vacuole it remained unchanged. These results show that: 1) recovery from osmotic shock requires absorption of easily penetrating solute, mainly Na +; 2) distribution of solutes, absorbed or synthesized in cells exposed to salinity, is a dynamic process; 3) cells could grow and proliferate in high NaCl content in the cytosol; 4) red beet root cells grown in the presence of NaCl contain higher cytoplasmic Na + than K +; and 5) during adjustment to salinity small spherical carrot cells survive the osmotic shock and do not show any detectable damage. 相似文献

The effect of increased net foliar K + accumulation on translocation of carbon was studied in sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris, L. var. Klein E and US H20) plants. Net accumulation of recently absorbed K + was studied by observing arrival of 42K + per unit area of leaf. Labeled K + was added to give an initial concentration at 2 or 10 millimolar K + in mineral nutrient solution. Because the newly arrived K + constitutes a small part of the total leaf K + in plants raised in 10 millimolar K +, export of 42K + by phloem was negligible over the 2- to 3-day period; consequently, accumulation is a measure of arrival in the xylem. In leaves from plants in 2 millimolar K +, export by the phloem was estimated to be of the same order as import by the xylem; K + per area was observed to remain at a steady-state level. Increasing the supply of K + to 10 millimolar caused arrival in the xylem to increase 2- to 3-fold; K + per area increased gradually in the mature leaves. Neither net carbon exchange nor translocation of sugar increased in response to a faster rate of arrival of K + over a 6- to 8-hour period. In the absence of short-term effects, it is suggested that K +-promoted increase in synthetic metabolism may be the basis of the increased carbon assimilation and translocation in plants supplied with an above-minimal level of K +. 相似文献

Abstract The effect of potassium (0,50, 100 and 200 mg/pot) was studied on growth characteristics and nitrate reductase activity in maize ( Zea mays) seedlings during water stress and subsequent recovery. In irrigated plants K + increased the rate of leaf area expansion, leading to increased leaf area per plant. Increased leaf area was associated with decreased chlorophyll content. Water stress (–15 bars) enhanced the stomatal resistance of leaves which was further accentuated by K + application. Nitrate reductase activity rose in irrigated plants 24 h after K + application. Subsequently, as water stress developed, K + helped to maintain higher NR activity for the first two days. However, K + had no effect on half life of NR in light or darkness. During recovery from stress K + aided to maintain the higher leaf expansion rate, the chlorophyll content and the stomatal resistance. The results above are discussed in relation to the ability of K + to maintain better growth under water stress. 相似文献

The lateral margins of immature primary leaf blades of Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. ‘Pinto’ curve up and in toward the midrib when auxin is applied to the leaf. The leaves are most sensitive to auxin shortly after they first unfold and leaves which have grown to about 60 % or more of their ultimate area no longer give this hyponastic response. The response is specific for auxins and is inhibited by the anti-auxins, trans-cinnamic acid and para-chlorophenoxyisobutyric acid. Ethylene and ethylene-generating compounds failed to induce hyponasty, suggesting the response is due to a positive growth promotion by auxin. Measurements of the distance between the lateral margins of the leaf at its maximum width were used to provide quantitative estimates of the degree of hyponasty. Between 2 and 4 hr after auxin application a direct proportionality was found between the amount of curvature and the logarithm of the indoleacetic acid concentration over the range of 10 −6 to 10 −3 m. The relative sensitivity of the leaves to different auxins was qualitatively similar to that observed in many straight-growth bioassays. Similar responses were obtained when auxin was applied by a carborundum wounding procedure. Potential applications of this auxin bioassay for investigations of the role of auxin in the normal plagiotropic growth behavior of leaf lamina and of the role of auxin in the initiation of various plant diseases are suggested. 相似文献

The stimulation of dicotyledonous leaf growth by light depends on increased H + efflux, to acidify and loosen the cell walls, and is enhanced by K + uptake. The role of K + is generally considered to be osmotic for turgor maintenance. In coleoptiles, auxin‐induced cell elongation and wall acidification depend on K + uptake through tetraethylammonium (TEA)‐sensitive channels (Claussen et al., Planta 201, 227–234, 1997), and auxin stimulates the expression of inward‐rectifying K + channels ( Philippar et al. 1999) . The role of K + in growing, leaf mesophyll cells has been investigated in the present study by measuring the consequences of blocking K + uptake on several growth‐related processes, including solute accumulation, apoplast acidification, and membrane polarization. The results show that light‐stimulated growth and wall acidification of young tobacco leaves is dependent on K + uptake. Light‐stimulated growth is enhanced three‐fold over dark levels with increasing external K +, and this effect is blocked by the K + channel blockers, TEA, Ba ++ and Cs +. Incubation in 10 mm TEA reduced light‐stimulated growth and K + uptake by 85%, and completely inhibited light‐stimulated wall acidification and membrane polarization. Although K + uptake is significantly reduced in the presence of TEA, solute accumulation is increased. We suggest that the primary role of K + in light‐stimulated leaf growth is to provide electrical counterbalance to H + efflux, rather than to contribute to solute accumulation and turgor maintenance. 相似文献

Wheat irrigated with nutrient solutions containing 0, 0.2, 0.5, 1, 2, or 6 millimolar K + had maximum photosynthetic rates at 1 to 2 millimolar K + concentrations. Rates in the 6 millimolar K +-grown plants were not higher than the 2 millimolar K +-grown wheat, and rates were inhibited below 0.5 millimolar K +. Photosynthesis was measured by both attached whole leaf CO 2 uptake and by 14CO 2 fixation of leaf slices in solution. Exposure of leaf slices from 0.2, 2, and 6 millimolar K +-grown wheat to various assay media water potentials showed that photosynthesis of the 0.2 millimolar K +-grown wheat decreased from control (high water potential) rates by 35%, that of the 2 millimolar K +-grown wheat by 20.4%, and that of the 6 millimolar K +-grown wheat by only 8.3% at −3.11 megapascals. Also, photosynthesis of the 6 millimolar K +-grown wheat was enhanced by 28% over that of the 2 millimolar K + wheat at the most severe water stress (−3.11 megapascals), indicating that the excess leaf K + in the 6 millimolar K +-grown wheat partially reversed dehydration effects on photosynthesis. Oligomycin eliminated the protective effects of high K + on photosynthesis in dehydrated leaf slices. These results suggest that the protective effect of high K + under water stress may involve the exchange of K + in the cytoplasm for stroma H +, thus altering stromal pH and restoring photosynthesis. The protective effect of high K + was also observed in attached whole leaf photosynthesis of in situ water-stressed wheat grown on 0.2, 2, and 6 millimolar K +. Under water stress, rates of the 6 millimolar K +-grown wheat were enhanced by 66.2% and 113.9% over that of 2 millimolar K +-grown wheat in two separate experiments. Internal CO 2 concentration of the 6 millimolar K +-grown wheat was lower than that of the 0.2 and 2 millimolar K +-grown wheat. These results suggest that the high K + effects on chloroplast photosynthesis seen in leaf slices also occur at the whole plant level. 相似文献

以2年生的流苏播种苗为材料,采用不同浓度(50、100、200、300 mmol·L^-1)NaCl溶液进行胁迫处理,研究盐胁迫对流苏的生长、Na^+和K^+分布格局、渗透调节物质的影响,以明确其耐盐阈值。结果表明:(1)随着NaCl胁迫浓度的增加,流苏幼苗生长量逐渐降低,盐害指数升高、存活率下降;幼苗耐盐阈值为98.693 mmol·L^-1(0.577%W/V)。(2)随着NaCl胁迫浓度的增加,流苏幼苗各器官中的Na^+含量持续增加,并在浓度为50 mmol·L^-1时表现为根>叶>茎,在其余各处理组表现为叶>根>茎;幼苗根、叶中的K^+含量表现为先增后减的变化趋势,茎中K^+含量总体表现为下降趋势,且器官中K^+含量表现为根>叶>茎;幼苗根部到茎部和茎部到叶部的离子选择性运输能力、各器官中的K^+/Na^+比值均呈下降趋势。(3)随着NaCl浓度的增加,流苏幼苗叶片可溶性糖、可溶性蛋白含量总体呈上升趋势,其脯氨酸含量呈先上升后下降的趋势。研究发现,流苏幼苗根系可通过对Na^+的吸收和累积来阻止其向地上部运输进而避免盐害发生;叶片和茎中通过提高对K^+的选择性吸收和累积,从而增大K^+/Na^+比值以减缓盐分对其生理代谢的伤害。 相似文献

This work investigated the importance of the ability of leaf mesophyll cells to control K + flux across the plasma membrane as a trait conferring tissue tolerance mechanism in plants grown under saline conditions. Four wheat ( Triticum aestivum and Triticum turgidum) and four barley ( Hordeum vulgare) genotypes contrasting in their salinity tolerance were grown under glasshouse conditions. Seven to 10‐day‐old leaves were excised, and net K + and H + fluxes were measured from either epidermal or mesophyll cells upon acute 100 m M treatment (mimicking plant failure to restrict Na + delivery to the shoot) using non‐invasive microelectrode ion flux estimation (the MIFE) system. To enable net ion flux measurements from leaf epidermal cells, removal of epicuticular waxes was trialed with organic solvents. A series of methodological experiments was conducted to test the efficiency of different methods of wax removal, and the impact of experimental procedures on cell viability, in order to optimize the method. A strong positive correlation was found between plants' ability to retain K + in salt‐treated leaves and their salinity tolerance, in both wheat and especially barley. The observed effects were related to the ionic but not osmotic component of salt stress. Pharmacological experiments have suggested that voltage‐gated K +‐permeable channels mediate K + retention in leaf mesophyll upon elevated NaCl levels in the apoplast. It is concluded that MIFE measurements of NaCl‐induced K + fluxes from leaf mesophyll may be used as an efficient screening tool for breeding in cereals for salinity tissue tolerance. 相似文献
