Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) activity in plants is generally associated with glycolytic fermentation, which facilitates cell survival during episodes of low-oxygen stress in water-logged roots as well as chronically hypoxic regions surrounding the vascular core. Work with tobacco and potato has implicated ADH activity in additional metabolic roles, including aerobic fermentation, acetaldehyde detoxification and carbon reutilization. Here a combination of approaches has been used to examine tissue-specific patterns of Adh gene expression in order to provide insight into the potential roles of alcohol dehydrogenases, using Petunia hybrida, a solanaceous species with well-characterized genetics. A reporter-gene study, relying on the promoters of Adh1 and Adh2 to drive expression of the gene for a green fluorescent protein derivative, mgfp5, revealed unexpectedly complex patterns of GFP fluorescence in floral tissues, particularly the stigma, style and nectary. Results of GC-MS analysis suggest the association of ADH with production of aromatic compounds in the nectary. Overall the results demonstrate selective recruitment of Adh gene family members in tissues and organs associated with diverse ADH functions. 相似文献

In plants, Ca2+-dependent protein kinases (CDPKs) are characterized as important sensors of Ca2+ flux in response to varieties of biotic and abiotic stress. A comprehensive survey of global gene expression performed by
using an Arabidopsis thaliana whole genome Affymetrix gene chip revealed that CDPK tends to be significantly higher in tetraploid Isatis indigotica than in diploid ones. To investigate different CDPK expression in response to polyploidy, a full-length cDNA clone (IiCPK1) encoding CDPK was isolated from the traditional Chinese medicinal herb I. indigotica cDNA library. IiCPK1 contains some basic features of CDPKs: a catalytic kinase domain including an ATP-binding domain and four EFhand calcium-binding
motifs. Real-time PCR analysis indicated the expression of IiCPK1 from two kinds of I. indigotica (tetraploid and diploid). They both were induced in response to cold stress, but tetraploids I. indigotica which has good fertility, exhibited an enhanced resistance and higher yield, and presented to be more responsive and adaptable.
Our results suggest that IiCPK1 gene plays a role in adapting to the environmental stress. 相似文献

The diageotropica mutation alters auxin induction of a subset of the Aux/IAA gene family in tomato 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
The diageotropica (dgt) mutation has been proposed to affect either auxin perception or responsiveness in tomato plants. It has previously been demonstrated that the expression of one member of the Aux/IAA family of auxin-regulated genes is reduced in dgt plants. Here, we report the cloning of ten new members of the tomato Aux/IAA family by PCR amplification based on conserved protein domains. All of the gene family members except one (LeIAA7) are expressed in etiolated tomato seedlings, although they demonstrate tissue specificity (e.g. increased expression in hypocotyls vs. roots) within the seedling. The wild-type auxin-response characteristics of the expression of these tomato LeIAA genes are similar to those previously described for Aux/IAA family members in Arabidopsis. In dgt seedlings, auxin stimulation of gene expression was reduced in only a subset of LeIAA genes (LeIAA5, 8, 10, and 11), with the greatest reduction associated with those genes with the strongest wild-type response to auxin. The remaining LeIAA genes tested exhibited essentially the same induction levels in response to the hormone in both dgt and wild-type hypocotyls. These results confirm that dgt plants can perceive auxin and suggest that a specific step in early auxin signal transduction is disrupted by the dgt mutation. 相似文献

Characterization of genes responsive to stress is important for efforts on improving stress tolerance of plants. To address
components involved in stress tolerance of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum), a stress-responsive gene family encoding A20/AN1 zinc finger proteins was characterized. In the present study, 13 members
of this gene family were cloned from tomato cultivar Pusa Ruby and named as Stress Associated Protein (SAP) genes. Out of 13 genes, 12 have been mapped on their respective chromosomes. Expression of these genes in response to cold,
heat, salt, desiccation, wounding, abscisic acid, oxidative and submergence stresses was analysed. All tomato SAP genes were found to be responsive to one or other type of environmental stress. The phylogenetic analysis of these genes,
along with their orthologs from Solanaceae species suggests the presence of a common set of SAP genes in the studied Solanaceae species. The present study characterizes a SAP gene family, which encodes A20/AN1 zinc finger containing proteins from tomato for the first time. Genes showing high expression
in response to a particular stress can be exploited for improving stress tolerance of tomato and other Solanaceae members.

Every year the consequences of water deficit on crop yield and quality are profound. The observation that many wild species
relatives of cultivated crops display a greater stress tolerance and the fact that the cultivated species generally display
only a fraction of the allelic diversity available within the tomato clade suggest that crossing of wild species with elite
cultivars could improve the stress physiology of modern crops. To assess this from the basis of chemical composition we applied
an established GC-MS based metabolite profiling method to fruits from irrigated and non-irrigated tomato plants either of
the cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum) or of its hybrid with its wild species relative (Solanum pennellii). Results are discussed in terms of both the metabolic response to drought stress and the potential of utilizing exotic germplasm
as a means to improve agronomically important characteristics of crop species.

This study aimed to examine the induction of defense responses in tomato elicited by Methylobacterium
oryzae CBMB20 as a consequence of reduced stress ethylene level possibly through its ACC deaminase activity. Significantly increased
activities of pathogenesis-related (PR) proteins and defense enzymes such as β-1,3-glucanase, phenylalanine ammonia-lyase,
peroxidase and polyphenol oxidase were noted in M. oryzae CBMB20 pretreated and challenged with Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato (Pst) compared to either control or M. oryzae-treated tomato plants in both growth chamber and greenhouse conditions. Increased PR proteins and defense enzyme activities
were correlated with the reduction of stress ethylene level. M. oryzae CBMB20 reduced the stress ethylene level about 27% and 55% when challenged with Pst, in growth chamber and greenhouse on
day 7 respectively and the effect was comparable to that of the chemical ethylene biosynthesis inhibitor AVG, L-α-(2-aminoethoxyvinyl)-glycine
hydrochloride. As a consequence of reduced stress ethylene level and its effect on defense response in crop plants, the disease
severity was reduced 26% in M. oryzae CBMB20-treated plants challenged with pathogen. Therefore, inoculation of M. oryzae CBMB20 would induce the defense enzymes and contribute to the enhanced resistance of tomato plants against the pathogen Pst. 相似文献

Fusicoccin (FC), an activator of the plant plasma membrane H+-ATPase, induces several components of plant pathogen resistance responses, including defence hormone biosynthesis and pathogenesis-related (PR) gene expression. The mechanism by which these responses occur, and the effect they have on plant–pathogen interactions is unknown. Here, we show that PR gene expression in response to FC in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) plants does not strictly require the common defence hormones, salicylic acid, jasmonic acid and ethylene. We also show that FC-induced PR gene expression requires neither Ca2+ nor reactive oxygen species, typical early pathogen-resistance response signals. The possibility that PR gene expression is related to FC-induced dehydration stress is also discounted. Finally, we show that the defence responses elicited by FC in tomato are not sufficient to confer resistance to the bacterial pathogen Pseudomonas syringae. Rather, FC increases the rate and severity of disease symptom formation in an ethylene-dependent manner.Abbreviations DPI Diphenylene iodonium - EGTA Ethylene glycol-bis(-aminoethyl ether)-N,N,N,N-tetraacetic acid - FC Fusicoccin - HR Hypersensitive response - INA 2,6-Dichloroisonicotinic acid - JA Jasmonic acid - PM Plasma membrane - ROS Reactive oxygen species - PR Pathogenesis-related - SA Salicylic acid 相似文献

Antisense downregulation of polyphenol oxidase results in enhanced disease susceptibility 总被引:12,自引:0,他引:12
Polyphenol oxidases (PPOs; EC 1.14.18.1 or EC 1.10.3.2) catalyze the oxidation of phenolics to quinones, highly reactive intermediates whose secondary reactions are responsible for much of the oxidative browning that accompanies plant senescence, wounding, and responses to pathogens. To assess the impact of PPO expression on resistance to Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato we introduced a chimeric antisense potato PPO cDNA into tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum L.). Oxidation of caffeic acid, the dominant o-diphenolic aglycone of tomato foliage, was decreased ca. 40-fold by antisense expression of PPO. All members of the PPO gene family were downregulated: neither immunoreactive PPO nor PPO-specific mRNA were detectable in the transgenic plants. In addition, the antisense PPO construct suppressed inducible increases in PPO activity. Downregulation of PPO in antisense plants did not affect growth, development, or reproduction of greenhouse-grown plants. However, antisense PPO expression dramatically increased susceptibility to P. syringae expressing the avirulence gene avrPto in both Pto and pto backgrounds. In a compatible (pto) interaction, plants constitutively expressing an antisense PPO construct exhibited a 55-fold increase in bacterial growth, three times larger lesion area, and ten times more lesions cm–2 than nontransformed plants. In an incompatible (Pto) interaction, antisense PPO plants exhibited 100-fold increases in bacterial growth and ten times more lesions cm–2 than nontransformed plants. Although it is not clear whether hypersusceptibility of antisense plants is due to low constitutive PPO levels or failure to induce PPO upon infection, these findings suggest a critical role for PPO-catalyzed phenolic oxidation in limiting disease development. As a preliminary effort to understand the role of induced PPO in limiting disease development, we also examined the response of PPO promoter::-glucuronidase constructs when plants are challenged with P. syringae in both Pto and pto backgrounds. While PPO B inducibility was the same in both compatible and incompatible interactions, PPO D, E and F were induced to higher levels and with different expression patterns in incompatible interactions. 相似文献

The influence of saprotrophic soil fungi: Aspergillus versicolor, Penicillium frequentans, Penicillium verrucosum var. cyclopium, and Trichocladium asperum on development, wholesomeness, gas exchange and yield of potato cv. Mila was studied in pot experiments during 1998–2000.
The presence of each of the mentioned fungi species in soil accelerated potato germination and stimulated growth of overground
plant parts in comparison with control plants. Additionally, the presence of the tested saprotrophes in soil prologed the
potato growing period by inhibiting chloroses of necroses. The tested saprotrophic fungi also modified plant physiological
processes, such as transpiration and assimilation. The contact of plant root system with soil saprotrophes diminished significantly
assimilation and transpiration intensity of overground parts in comparison with the control plants, in all the years of the
experiment. However, this response did not reduce the yield of tubers. 相似文献

Anther culture response was examined in five Solanum genotypes. Large genotypic differences exist in response to culture and liquid culture media were found to be superior to agar solidified media systems. Pre-treatment effects on embryoid induction were also investigated and two of the genotypes displayed differential response to temperature stress pretreatment. In general the beneficial effect of charcoal in the media was confirmed. Successful embryoid production and plantlet regeneration was obtained from the wild potato species, Solanum papita. The influence of sucrose concentration on embryoid production was also investigated. Large genotype by sucrose interactions were detected and this was mainly due to the differential response of the tuberosum clones to increasing sucrose concentration when compared with S. papita. Embryoids were produced from this species in media containing 15% sucrose although the optimum concentration of sucrose for embryoid production was 9%. The possible role of anther culture techniques in gene introgression and potato improvement is discussed. 相似文献
