Seasonal Changes in the Pattern of Assimilatory Enzymes and of Proteolytic Activities in Leaves of Juvenile Ivy

Ivy growing under natural conditions is an interesting plantto study the influence of external (e.g. temperature, light)and internal (e.g. source/sink relations) factors on leaf metabolism.Leaves of this evergreen plant are subject several times toseasonal changes. The contents of selected assimilatory enzymeswere well conserved throughout the winter indicating that ivyleaves are probably able to make use of short periods with highertemperatures and to immediately restart growth in spring. Totalproteins and carbohydrates increased considerably between Februaryand May before the emergence of the new leaf generation. Theincrease in the content of non-structural carbohydrates wasdue to the accumulation of starch, while soluble sugars peakedin winter and decreased in spring. From May onwards, the assimilateswere retranslocated to the emerging young plant parts. Markedseasonal changes in the peptide hydrolase pattern were observed.All exo- and endopeptidases investigated were minimal duringsummer suggesting that the net protein remobilization from olderleaves was not based on an increase in the level of these majorpeptide hydrolases. Source/sink interactions on a whole plantlevel seem to be decisive in the regulation of seasonal changesin the pattern of assimilatory enzymes and of proteolytic activities.Since ivy leaves remain active for several years, the changesmust be reversible and occur repeatedly during the life-spanof a particular leaf.Copyright 1994, 1999 Academic Press Hedera helix L., ivy, peptide hydrolase, assimilatory enzyme, low temperatures, retranslocation     

Changes in Volatile C6-Aldehydes Emitted from and Accumulated in Tea Leaves

C₆-Aldehydes emitted from intact tea leaves were analyzed quantitatively.Emission of the aldehydes increased temporarily in mid-May whenenzymatic activities involved in aldehyde formation from lipidsbegan to increase. Levels of C₆-aldehydes in tea leaves alsoincreased temporarily. However, the accumulated C₆-aldehydesdid not always correspond to emitted ones.

Changes in Activities of Antioxidant Enzymes in Sunflower Leaves of Different Ages

Role of superoxide dismutase isozymes and other antioxidant enzymes was studied in relation to leaf age in sunflower (Helianthus annuus L. cv. ACC 1508) at pre-flowering and grain filling stages. Relative water content (RWC) did not change much in leaves of different age and at the two stages. Protein content declined continuously from the youngest to the oldest leaf, while chlorophyll (Chl) and carotenoids (Car) contents increased down to 7^th/9^th leaf and declined in subsequent older leaves. Protein, Chl and Car contents were higher at pre-flowering than at seed filling stage. Superoxide dismutase (SOD), its isozymes, and ascorbate peroxidase (APO) and catalase (CAT) activities were highest in the 9^th leaf and declined in subsequent older leaves. SOD and APO activities were higher at seed filling, except in oldest senescent (13^th, 15^th) leaves. Among SOD isozymes, Cu/Zn-SOD and Mn-SOD activities accounted for most of the total SOD, and only marginal activity was observed for Fe-SOD. Peroxidase activity increased from youngest to the oldest leaf at pre-flowering stage and down to 13^th leaf at seed filling stage.

遮光对刺梨果实和叶片中维生素C与糖含量以及相关酶活性的影响

为探究光照强度减弱对不同发育期的刺梨(Rosa roxburghii Tratt.)果实和叶片中维生素C与糖含量及相关酶活性的影响,以‘贵农5号’刺梨扦插苗为材料,采用遮阳网设置光强减弱20%、40%、60%的3个遮光处理,以自然光照强度为对照(CK),分析不同光照强度条件下刺梨果实和叶片中维生素C含量及相关酶活性以及糖含量的变化。结果表明：(1)光照强度减弱后,不同发育期的刺梨果实和叶片中维生素C含量均显著降低,对照及3个处理间的果实维生素C含量的差异在快速膨大期均达到显著水平。(2)随着光照强度的减弱,刺梨果实和叶片中L 半乳糖 1,4 内酯脱氢酶(GalLDH)、单脱氢抗坏血酸还原酶(MDHAR)和脱氢抗坏血酸还原酶(DHAR)活性均降低,而抗坏血酸氧化酶(AAO)和抗坏血酸过氧化物酶(APX)活性均增强,尤其是果实中MDHAR活性在快速膨大期迅速大幅增强。(3)刺梨果实和叶片中可溶性糖、蔗糖、葡萄糖、果糖含量随光照强度减弱而降低,但果实中葡萄糖含量在快速膨大期增加尤为迅速。(4)果实中维生素C含量与叶片中蔗糖、葡萄糖含量在不同发育期均呈极显著正相关关系,快速膨大期果实中GalLDH、MDHAR活性与维生素C含量呈极显著正相关关系且相关系数均达到最大值,而其APX活性与维生素C含量呈极显著负相关关系且相关系数达到最大值。研究认为,光照强度通过调控刺梨果实中维生素C合成及相关代谢关键酶的活性与叶片中光合产物的含量最终影响果实中维生素C的积累量;弱光环境不利于刺梨果实和叶片中维生素C及糖的积累,其影响在果实快速膨大期尤为明显;良好的光照是保证刺梨果实优良品质的基本条件。     

Specificity of Enzyme System Producing C6-Aldehyde in Tea Chloroplasts

The substrate specificity of enzyme system producing C₆-aldehyde in Thea chloroplasts was clarified with an entire series of synthesized positional isomers, in which the position of cis-1, cis-4-pentadiene system varies from C-3 to C-13 in C₁₈ fatty acid and geometrical isomers of linoleic acid. The structural requirement for the substrate of enzyme system producing C₆-aldehyde is the presence of cis-1, cis-4-pentadiene system between ω-6 and ω-10.     

Seasonal Changes of Polyamine Concentrations and Arginine Decarboxylase Activities in Leaves of 4 Ecotyes of Reeds

The seasonal changes of polyamine concentrations and arginine decarboxylase (ADC, EC 4.1.1. 1. 9)activities were investigated in the leaves of 4 ecotypes of reeds (Phragamites comrnunis Trinius)distributed over Hexi Corridor of Gansu province. The leaves of all ecotypes of reeds contained the same kind of polyamines and showed the same trend of decrement in total amuonts of potyamines with change of seasons. From May to September, the reeds which grow in arid and saline habitat maintained higher level of spermidine (Spd)and spermine (Spm)with no accumulation of putrescine (Put), resulting in low ratios of Put to other polyamine (Spd and Spm), whereas opposite results were observed in swamp reeds. These results indicate that the adaption of reeds to drought and salt stresses may correlate with Put synthesis via ADC pathway and the quick transformation of Put into Spd and Spm.     

增强UV-B辐射对彩色马铃薯叶片中相关保护酶活性的影响

以种植于大田中的马铃薯品种'云南转心乌'(块茎紫皮紫环,以下简称'转心乌')和 '大西洋'(块茎白皮白肉)为材料,分别采用自然太阳光照(0～10 W/m2)、2 W/m2和4 W/m2 UV-B辐射进行20～80 d的照射处理,测定了马铃薯叶片内过氧化氢酶(CAT)、过氧化物酶(POD)、超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、苯丙氨酸解氨酶(PAL)活性以及总叶绿素和丙二醛含量的变化.结果表明:随着UV-B处理时间的延长,'转心乌'和'大西洋'叶片中CAT、POD、SOD、PAL活性均表现出先升后降的趋势,而总叶绿素含量持续降低,丙二醛含量逐渐增加;在增强UV-B辐射条件下,上述指标在处理时间和剂量间大多差异显著,且'转心乌'叶片的各保护酶活性和总叶绿素含量显著高于'大西洋',丙二醛含量则显著低于‘大西洋'.可见,长时间大剂量的UV-B辐射对马铃薯叶片的叶绿素合成代谢和保护酶活性具有一定的抑制作用,从而影响作物正常的生长发育;马铃薯对于紫外线辐射的响应具有品种间差异,'转心乌'较'大西洋'更耐UV-B辐射,其更适合种植在UV-B辐照较强的高海拔地区.     

银杏叶黄酮类化合物含量及相关酶活性对温度和干旱胁迫的响应

温度和土壤水分是影响银杏叶黄酮类化合物合成的重要环境因子,为了探讨温度和水分对银杏叶黄酮类化合物合成的影响,研究3个温度水平[5℃～15℃(T1)、15℃～25℃(T2)、25℃～35℃(T3)]与3个土壤含水量水平[田间持水量的55%～60%(W1)、田间持水量的40%～45%(W2)、田间持水量的30%～35%(W3)]对银杏叶黄酮类化合物含量、叶片黄酮类化合物合成上游的3个关键酶[苯丙氨酸解氨酶(PAL)、肉桂酸4-羟基化酶(C4H)、4-香豆酸辅酶A连接酶(4CL)]活性的影响。结果表明:(1)温度和干旱胁迫显著影响PAL、C4H和4CL的活性以及银杏叶类黄酮含量;随着环境胁迫的进行,3种酶活性普遍呈增加趋势,但不同酶之间也存在一定差异。(2)低温(T1)与高温(T3)胁迫均显著促进PAL活性;T1则更加有利于叶片中C4H活性的增加;4CL活性的变化复杂,在胁迫处理的前期(14d和28d),干旱条件是影响银杏叶4CL活性的主要因子,而到42d之后,温度因子则成为主要影响因子。(3)银杏叶类黄酮含量均随着胁迫时间的推进而显著减少,在胁迫前期,干旱是影响类黄酮含量的主要因素,而到42d之后,温度因子占主导作用。(4)相关分析表明,在温度和干旱胁迫下,PAL、C4H和4CL以及银杏叶生物量均与黄酮含量存在负相关关系;尽管环境胁迫促进了相关酶的活性,但银杏叶片中的类黄酮含量却呈下降趋势。

Changes in Activities of Enzymes of Carbon Metabolism in Leaves during Exposure of Plants to Low Temperature

The aim of this study was to determine the response of photosynthetic carbon metabolism in spinach and bean to low temperature. (a) Exposure of warm-grown spinach and bean plants to 10°C for 10 days resulted in increases in the total activities of a number of enzymes, including ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (Rubisco), stromal fructose 1,6 bisphosphatase (Fru 1,6-P₂ase), sedoheptulose 1,7-bisphosphatase (Sed 1,7-P₂ase), and the cytosolic Fru 1,6-P₂ase. In spinach, but not bean, there was an increase in the total activity of sucrose-phosphate synthase. (b) The CO₂-saturated rates of photosynthesis for the cold-acclimated spinach plants were 68% greater at 10°C than those for warm-acclimated plants, whereas in bean, rates of photosynthesis at 10°C were very low after exposure to low temperature. (c) When spinach leaf discs were transferred from 27 to 10°C, the stromal Fru 1,6-P₂ase and NADP-malate dehydrogenase were almost fully activated within 8 minutes, and Rubisco reached 90% of full activation within 15 minutes of transfer. An initial restriction of Calvin cycle fluxes was evident as an increase in the amounts of ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate, glycerate-3-phosphate, Fru 1,6-P₂, and Sed 1,7-P₂. In bean, activation of stromal Fru 1,6-P₂ase was weak, whereas the activation state of Rubisco decreased during the first few minutes after transfer to low temperature. However, NADP-malate dehydrogenase became almost fully activated, showing that no loss of the capacity for reductive activation occurred. (d) Temperature compensation in spinach evidently involves increases in the capacities of a range of enzymes, achieved in the short term by an increase in activation state, whereas long-term acclimation is achieved by an increase in the maximum activities of enzymes. The inability of bean to activate fully certain Calvin cycle enzymes and sucrose-phosphate synthase, or to increase nonphotochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence at 10°C, may be factors contributing to its poor performance at low temperature.     

三类雄性不育水稻花药和叶片中抗氧化酶活性变化

为进一步了解水稻雄性不育现象,调查了光温敏核质互作不育系‘2310SA’、光温敏核不育系‘2310S’和核质互作不育系‘2277A’三类水稻及正常粳稻在不同光温环境下穗发育后期花药和剑叶中超氧化物歧化酶、过氧化物酶、过氧化氢酶等抗氧化酶的活性及丙二醛的含量和光合速率的变化。结果表明,水稻花药比叶片对光温胁迫更敏感,不育与可育花药活性氧代谢方面有明显差异。不同类型的不育水稻败育生理不尽相同,光温环境变化对光温敏核不育水稻‘2310S’有更明显的胁迫性,其不育花粉发育后期,上述3种抗氧化酶不能协同作用,SOD活性高,POD活性低,膜脂过氧化程度高和时间提前。其他两类不育系中POD活性也稳定较低,显示其可能与水稻不育花粉的形成更相关,同时,不育水稻中光合速率较低。     

模拟酸雨对白筋叶片抗氧化酶活性及叶绿素荧光参数的影响

采用棚内盆栽方法, 设置pH值5.6 （对照）、4.0、3.0和2.0的模拟酸雨胁迫试验, 探讨其对白簕幼苗叶片MDA含量、保护酶活性、叶绿素含量、气体交换参数和叶绿素荧光参数的影响。结果表明, 随着模拟酸雨pH值的降低, MDA含量呈先降低后升高的趋势; SOD活性逐渐降低, POD活性逐渐升高, APX活性呈先升高后降低的变化。叶绿素a、叶绿素b、总叶绿素含量均比对照高, 在pH 4.0时达最大值。气孔限制值（Ls）、PSII实际光化学量子产量（ΦPSII）、光化学淬灭系数（qP）均随pH值的降低而下降, 净光速率（Pn）、气孔导度（Gs）、蒸腾速率（Tr）、水分利用效率（WUE）、PSII最大光化学效率（Fv/Fm）、PSII的潜在活性（Fv/Fo）、非光化学淬灭系数（qN）呈先升高后降低趋势, 且也都在pH 4.0时达最大值。由此推测, pH 4.0的酸雨处理有利于白簕幼苗的生长, 表明白簕幼苗可能喜欢生活在微酸环境中, 但是随着酸度加强, 反而起到抑制作用。
