鲜食糯玉米采后糖代谢相关酶活性变化

鲜食糯玉米采后腺苷二磷酸葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶（ADPGPPase）、尿苷二磷酸葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶（UDPGPPase）、束缚态淀粉合成酶（GBSS）、淀粉脱分支酶（DBE）等活性均呈现单峰曲线变化,第1～2天出现峰值然后略有下降;可溶性淀粉合成酶（SSS）活性呈较大幅度上升趋势,活性远高于采收初期;淀粉分支酶（SBE）在第3天出现极高峰值。与20℃贮藏温度相比,采后0℃低温贮藏可增强UDPGPPase活性,促进蔗糖降解;降低SSS和GBSS活性,延缓淀粉合成进程;抑制SBE活性,增强DBE活性,促进直链淀粉生成。     

两种穗型冬小麦籽粒淀粉积累动态及其有关酶活性变化

花后25d内,大穗型品种豫麦66籽粒中淀粉积累比多穗型品种豫麦49慢,但花后25d后情况则相反。2个品种籽粒中淀粉积累速率的变化均呈单峰曲线,豫麦49峰值出现在花后15～20d,而豫麦66峰值则出现在花后20～25d。灌浆期豫麦66和豫麦49籽粒中蔗糖合成酶(SS)活性变化呈单峰曲线,峰值分别出现在花后20d和15d,整个灌浆期内豫麦66籽粒中SS活性高于豫麦49;2个品种籽粒中腺苷二磷酸葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶(AGPP)和淀粉分支酶(SBE)活性变化均呈单峰曲线,峰值出现在花后20d,而可溶性淀粉合成酶(SSS)活性变化则呈双峰曲线,峰值分别出现在花后10d和20d,且第二个峰值显著高于第一个。相关分析表明,SS、AGPP、SSS和SBE是影响小麦籽粒淀粉积累的关键酶。

糯性和非糯性小麦灌浆期胚乳直/支链淀粉积累及其相关酶活性研究

选用3份糯性和2份非糯性小麦材料,通过田间试验在灌浆过程中分别检测了各材料的籽粒直链和支链淀粉积累量、淀粉积累速率及淀粉合成关键酶活性的动态变化过程,探讨籽粒淀粉累积与相关酶活性的关系.结果表明:(1)非糯小麦在花后7 d前均未检测到直链淀粉存在,而此时已经检测到支链淀粉含量,并且糯小麦仅含有支链淀粉,支链淀粉早于直链淀粉合成.(2)糯性和非糯性小麦灌浆期籽粒的直、支链淀粉积累速率均呈先增加后降低的趋势,且直、支链淀粉最终积累量取决于最大积累速率和平均积累速率的大小,而积累活跃期的调节作用较小;糯性和非糯性小麦在淀粉合成过程中的腺苷二磷酸葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶(AGPP)、可溶性淀粉合成酶(SSS)、颗粒结合型淀粉合成酶(GBSS)和淀粉分支酶(SEB)活性均呈单峰曲线变化,活性峰值基本上都出现在花后20～25 d左右.(3)直链淀粉积累速率与AGPP、SSS、GBSS和SBE活性变化显著或极显著正相关,而支链淀粉积累速率仅与SSS活性变化极显著正相关,总淀粉积累速率与AGPP和SSS活性变化显著或极显著正相关.     

氮素水平对冬小麦籽粒灌浆过程中淀粉合成关键酶活性的影响

小麦籽粒灌浆过程中,淀粉合成关键酶腺苷二磷酸葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶(ADPG-PPase)、可溶性淀粉合成酶(SSS)、淀粉分支酶(SBE)和束缚态淀粉合成酶(GBSS)均随着灌浆进程呈单峰曲线变化,峰值出现在花后25d;不同氮肥施用量对灌浆前期酶活性的影响较小,而在花后20d之后影响较大;随着氮肥施用量的增加,4种酶活性均呈增加趋势,但氮肥过量时酶活性下降,表明适当增加施氮量有利于淀粉合成关键酶活性的提高。     

花后高温对不同耐热性小麦品种籽粒淀粉形成的影响

以耐热性不同的2个小麦品种济麦20和鲁麦21为材料,分别于花后5～9d（T1）和15～19d（T2）进行高温处理,研究了小麦花后不同阶段高温对籽粒淀粉积累、淀粉粒分布及相关酶活性的影响。结果表明,花后高温显著降低籽粒淀粉积累量;显著降低籽粒淀粉及支链淀粉含量,但提高直链淀粉含量、直／支链淀粉比例。处理间比较,他处理对籽粒淀粉积累的影响程度较T1处理大。品种间比较,高温对济麦20的影响程度较鲁麦21大。高温使A型淀粉粒的体积、数量和表面积比例显著增加,B型淀粉粒的体积、数量和表面积比例显著降低。T1处理后,两品种籽粒蔗糖含量、蔗糖合酶（SS）和腺苷二磷酸葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶（AGPP）、可溶性淀粉合酶（SSS）、束缚态淀粉合酶（GBSS）和淀粉分支酶（SBE）活性均略高于对照;但济麦20、鲁麦21上述指标分别于花后15、20d开始低于对照。他处理后,两品种籽粒蔗糖含量、SS、AGPP、SSS、GBSS和SBE活性显著低于对照,济麦20上述指标的降幅较鲁麦21大。与其它淀粉合成相关酶相比,高温对籽粒GBSS活性的影响程度较小。两品种处理间籽粒蔗糖含量、SS、AGPP、SSS、GBSS及SBE活性的变化趋势,与淀粉积累量的变化趋势基本一致。说明灌浆期高温使籽粒淀粉积累量降低,一方面是由于籽粒蔗糖供应较低引起糖源不足;另一方面则是由于灌浆中后期淀粉合成相关酶活性下降使淀粉合成受抑所致。     

不同类型玉米发育籽粒中淀粉合成及相关酶活性比较

以普通玉米、爆裂玉米、甜玉米和糯玉米为试材,分析和比较不同类型的玉米品种之间籽粒发育过程中淀粉合成及相关酶活性的变化。结果表明,淀粉合成速率和蔗糖合成酶(SS)、可溶性淀粉合成酶(SSS)、束缚态淀粉合成酶(GBSS)、淀粉分支酶(SBE)、去分支酶(DBE)活性都呈单峰曲线变化。30～40 DAP,普通玉米的SS活性显著高于其他3种类型;类型间平均和最大SSS活性水平的顺序为普通玉米>糯玉米>爆裂玉米>甜玉米;30～40 DAP,普通玉米GBSS活性最高,糯玉米GBSS活性最低;20～40 DAP,糯玉米SBE活性最高;甜玉米的DBE活性很低,并且在40 DAP完全丧失。淀粉合成速率与SS、SSS、GBSS和SBE活性相关程度比较高,与腺苷二磷酸葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶(AGP酶)和DBE活性相关不显著。推测AGP酶虽然为淀粉合成提供直接前体ADPG,但可能SS活性过低致使其限速作用比AGP酶的还强,AGP酶潜在的限速作用无法表现,SS成为玉米籽粒淀粉合成的限速因子。GBSS对直链淀粉积累起重要的促进作用;SSS和SBE对支链淀粉积累起重要的促进作用。

玉米灌浆期水分差异供应对籽粒淀粉积累及其酶活性的影响

利用普通玉米(Zay mays)‘掖单22’和高油玉米‘高油115’,研究了灌浆期水分差异供应对籽粒淀粉及其组分积累、相关酶活性动态变化的影响。结果表明,两种类型玉米淀粉积累和酶活性动态变化趋势基本一致,但对水分的反应有差异。缺水提高了‘掖单22’籽粒中淀粉、支链淀粉含量,而直链淀粉含量下降,‘高油115’则是籽粒中的淀粉含量、支链淀粉和直链淀粉含量提高;充分供水使淀粉及其组分产量提高;叶片中蔗糖合成酶(SS)、磷酸蔗糖合成酶(SPS)活性随水分供应水平而提高,尤其在授粉后10~30 d增幅更加明显。充分供水明显提高籽粒中腺苷二磷酸葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶(ADPG-PPase)、尿苷二磷酸葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶(UDPG-PPase)、可溶性淀粉合成酶(SSS)和淀粉粒结合淀粉合成酶(GBSS)活性,缺水使籽粒中酶活性下降较早且迅速;SPS、ADPG-PPase、SSS酶活性对缺水反应比较敏感。     

硫营养对小麦籽粒淀粉合成及相关酶活性的影响

在田间条件下,研究了施硫对小麦籽粒淀粉合成及相关酶活性的影响.结果表明:在0～20 cm土层土壤有效硫含量为5.84 mg/kg的地块上施硫不仅提高了小麦籽粒中蔗糖的含量,而且催化蔗糖降解代谢的蔗糖合成酶(SS)活性提高,利于籽粒蔗糖的降解.施硫显著提高了灌浆期间籽粒可溶性淀粉合成酶(SSS)活性,并使腺苷二磷酸葡萄糖焦磷酸化酶(ADPGPPase)和束缚态淀粉合成酶(GBSS)活性在灌浆中、后期维持在较高水平,对直链和支链淀粉的合成都起促进作用, 使总淀粉积累增加,千粒重提高,产量增加.     

Temperature induced changes in the starch components and biosynthetic enzymes of two rice varieties

The effects of temperature on starch and amylose accumulation, fine structure of amylopectin and activities of some enzymes related to starch synthesis in developing rice endosperms was examined. Two early indica rice varieties were used, differing in amylose concentration (AC, %), namely Jia 935 (low AC) and Jia 353 (high AC). The results showed that the effects of high temperature on AC and amylopectin fine structure were variety-dependent. High temperature caused a reduction in amylose concentration and an increase in the short chain (CL<22) proportion of amylopectin for Jia 935; while opposite was true for Jia 353. High temperature also reduced and increased the activity of granule-bound starch synthase (GBSS) in Jia 935 and in Jia 353, respectively. This suggests that a change in the ratio of amylose/starch due to temperature was attributable to a change in GBSS activity. Moreover, obvious differences between the two rice varieties were detected in the activities of sucrose synthase (SuSy), ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (ADPG-Ppase), soluble starch synthase (SSS), starch branching enzyme (SBE), starch de-branching enzyme (SDBE) and starch phosphorylase (SPase) to high temperature. Accumulation rate of amylose was significantly and positively correlated with GBSS for Jia 935, but not for Jia 353. Amylose accumulation was also significantly and positively correlated with the activities of SDBE, SBE, ADPG-Ppase and SuSy for both varieties. The results suggest that the ratio of amylose to starch in rice endosperm is not only related to GBSS, but also affected by the activities of SDBE, SBE, ADPG-Ppase and SuSy.     

Gene expression of the biosynthetic enzymes and biosynthesis of starch during Rice Grain development

Amylose and amylopectin are determinants of the physicochemical properties for starch and grain quality in rice. Their biosynthesis is catalyzed by the interplay of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase), granule-bound starch synthase (GBSS), soluble starch synthase (SSS), a starch branching enzyme (SBE), and a starch debranching enzyme (SDE). In this study, the genes for these enzymes were highly expressed 7 to 28 days after flowering during grain development, and their expression closely matched increases in both starch content and grain weight Among all the tested cultivars, amylose contents in the rice grains remained essentially constant throughout their development The AGPase gene was highly expressed in the high-yield cultivars of both glutinous and non-glutinous rice. The SSS gene was actively expressed when mature GBSS mRNA decreased. Genes responsible for amylopectin biosynthesis were simultaneously expressed in the late stage of grain development. We have now demonstrated that the expression patterns of starch biosynthetic genes differ between glutinous and non-glutinous rice, and between Tongil (a Japonica/ Indica hybrid) and Japonica types.     

Molecular aspect of good eating quality formation in Japonica rice

The composition of amylopectin is the determinant of rice eating quality under certain threshold of protein content and the ratio of amylose and amylopectin. In molecular biology level, the fine structure of amylopectin is determined by relative activities of starch branching enzyme (SBE), granule-bound starch synthase (GBSS), and soluble starch synthase (SSS) in rice grain under the same ADP-Glucose level. But the underlying mechanism of eating quality in molecular biology level remains unclear. This paper reports the differences on major parameters such as SNP and insertion-deletion sites, RNA expressions, and enzyme activities associated with eating quality of japonica varieties. Eight japonica rice varieties with significant differences in various eating quality parameters such as palatability and protein content were used in this experiment. Association analysis between nucleotide polymorphism and eating quality showed that S12 and S13 loci in SBE1, S55 in SSS1, S58 in SSS2A were significantly associated with apparent amylose content, alkali digestion value, setback viscosity, consistency viscosity, pasting temperature, which explained most of the variation in apparent amylose content, setback viscosity, and consistency viscosity; and explained almost all variations in alkali digestion value and pasting temperature. Thirty-five SNPs and insertion-deletions from SBE1, SBE3, GBSS1, SSS1, and SSS2A differentiated high or intermediate palatability rice varieties from low palatability rice varieties. Correlation analysis between enzyme activities and eating quality properties revealed that SBE25 and SSS15/W15 were positively correlated with palatability, whereas GBSS10 and GBSS15 were negatively correlated. Gene expressions showed that SBE1 and SBE3 expressions in high palatability varieties tended to be higher than middle and low palatability varieties. Collectively, SBE1, SBE3, SSS1, and SSS2A, especially SBE1 and SBE3 could improve eating quality, but GBSS1 decreased eating quality. The results indicated the possibility of developing high palatability cultivars through modification of key genes related to japonica rice eating quality formation in starch biosynthesis.     

Effects of the activities of key enzymes involved in starch biosynthesis on the fine structure of amylopectin in developing rice (Oryza sativa L.) endosperms

The dynamic changes of the activities of enzymes involving in starch biosynthesis, including ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase (AGPase), soluble starch synthases (SSS), starch branching enzyme (SBE) and starch debranching enzymes (DBE) were studied, and changes of fine structure of amy- lopectin were characterized by isoamylase treatment during rice grain development, using trans anti-waxy gene rice plants. The relationships between the activities of those key enzymes were also analyzed. The amylose synthesis was significantly inhibited in transgenic Wanjing 9522, but the total starch content and final grain weight were less affected as compared with those of non-transgenic Wanjing 9522 rice cultivar. Analyses on the changes of activities of enzymes involving in starch bio- synthesis showed that different enzyme activities were expressed differently during rice endosperm development. Soluble starch synthase is relatively highly expressed in earlier stage of endosperm de- velopment, whilst maximal expression of granule-bound starch synthase (GBSS) occurred in mid-stage of endosperm development. No obvious differences in changes of the activities of AGPase and SBE between two rice cultivars investigated, except the DBEs. Distribution patterns of branches of amy- lopectin changed continually during the development of rice grains and varied between two rice culti- vars. It was suggested that amylopectin synthesis be prior to the synthesis of amylose and different enzymes have different roles in controlling syntheses of branches of amylopectin.     

云南野生稻籽粒淀粉合成关键酶活性测定

为研究云南3种野生稻直链淀粉合成机制并利用其直链淀粉含量较低的优良品质,以云南3种野生稻和4种当地栽培稻为材料,研究野生稻灌浆期籽粒4种淀粉合成关键酶(包括ADPG焦磷酸化酶、可溶性淀粉合成、颗粒凝结型淀粉合成酶、淀粉分支酶)活性变化。结果表明,野生稻中4种淀粉合成酶的变化趋势与栽培稻相似,但活性有较大差别。颗粒凝结型淀粉合成酶的活性与直链淀粉含量呈正相关,说明在野生稻中同样是由颗粒凝结型淀粉合成酶控制直链淀粉的合成。同时发现在同一灌浆期,同种材料中可溶性淀粉合成酶和淀粉分支酶的活性变化呈相反趋势,推测这两种酶之间可能在淀粉合成过程中存在某种反馈调节机制。
