Root exudates of plants of Vitis vinifera L. cv. Thompson Seedless, grown in nutrient cultures with root temperatures maintained at either 20° or 30° and with shoots at a common air temperature, were assayed for cytokinin activity. After chromatography of freeze-dried sap on paper with n-butanol/acetic acid/water (4:1:1). activity was detected with a soybean callus assay. For both root temperatures, major activity appeared between R F 0.6 and R F 0.8, at about the same concentration in each case. The major difference between the 2 samples was the presence of activity at R F 0.1 to 0.2 in the 20° sample and its absence in the 30° sample. The higher root temperature resulted in increased shoot and root elongation, increased dry matter accumulation by both shoots and roots, and also altered the morphological appearance of the roots. 相似文献

We studied the effects of cAMP on phosphohydrolase activity in the microsomal fraction and its 0.5 M KCl extract. In both preparations, cAMP inhibited the activity of acid phosphatases. In the microsomal fraction, a 50% inhibition of acid cation-dependent (Mg 2+, Cu 2+) phosphatase was induced at pH 6.0 by 10 M cAMP; whereas, for cation-independent phosphatase, this effect was exerted only by 50 M cAMP. In the KCl extract, the sensitivity of both cation-dependent and cation-independent acid phosphatases to cAMP was higher than in the microsomal fraction. Cyclic AMP did not reduce the activity of nucleosidases. Selectivity in the cAMP action on acid phosphatases is assumed to be one of the mechanisms controlling the biochemical activity outside the barley root cells. 相似文献

The ATP-dependent proton-pumping activity of soybean ( Glycine max L.) root microsomes is predominantly nitrate sensitive and presumably derived from the tonoplast. We used microsomes to characterize anion effects on proton pumping of the tonoplast vesicles using two distinctly different techniques. Preincubation of the vesicles with nitrate caused inhibition of proton pumping and ATPase activity, with similar concentration dependence. Fluoride, which preferentially inhibits the plasma membrane ATPase, inhibited ATPase activity strongly at concentrations which did not affect proton pumping activity. Addition of potassium salts, after a steady-state pH gradient is established in the absence of such salts, caused an increased pH gradient which was due to alleviation of Δ Ψ and subsequent increased influx of H+ into these vesicles. This anion-induced increase in the pH gradient could be used as a measure of the relative anion permeabilities, which were of the order Br− = NO3− > Cl− SO42−. Phosphate and fluoride caused no increase in the pH gradient. Since the concentration dependence of KCl- and KNO3-induced quenching exhibited a saturable component, and since H+ uptake was increased by only certain anions, the data suggest that there may be a relatively specific anion channel associated with tonoplast-derived vesicles. 相似文献

To elucidate the mechanisms of cross-adaptation, we investigated the effect of heat shock (HS, for 2 h at 45°C) on leaf tolerance to overheating and exudation by roots detached from 25–30-day old sunflower ( Helianthus annuus L.) plants. It was demonstrated that preheating enhanced considerably leaf tolerance and activated root exudation, especially under water deficiency produced by plant transfer to the hypertonic NaCl solution (17 mM). Under water deficiency conditions, the roots of HS-treated plants pumped water against the osmotic pressure (OP) gradient between the exudate and the external solution. Therefore, we concluded that this pumping was realized due to a metabolic (non-osmotic) constituent of root pressure. In the roots of plants that were not treated with HS, the OP gradient became positive. This fact implies that the HS-pretreatment of plants retarded the penetration of sodium and chlorine ions into roots. The data obtained demonstrate that HS induced a cross-adaptation of plants to high temperature and water deficiency. Such cross-adaptation involves, as an important component, an acceleration of water metabolism, including an enhanced water pumping activity of root system. 相似文献

Crude plasma membranes of corn ( Zea mays L.) roots were obtained according to MI De Michelis and RM Spanswick (1986 Plant Physiol 81: 542-547). This preparation, which contained tightly sealed vesicles displaying Mg-ATP dependent H +-transport, was purified by phase partitioning. The percentage of inside-out vesicles (10%) was determined from the Mg-ATPase latency, revealed with lysophosphatidylcholine. A Triton X-100 treatment described previously (JP Grouzis, R Gibrat, J Rigaud, C Grignon 1987 Biochim Biophys Acta 903: 449-464) was applied to phase-partitioned plasma membranes. The percentage of catalytic sites freely accessible to Mg-ATP increased to 50% after Triton X-100 treatment. Treated vesicles remained capable of electrogenic H +-pumping, as demonstrated by Mg:ATP-dependent quinacrine fluorescence quenching and oxonol absorbance shift. As expected from the large increase of the catalytic sites accessibility, increases of the dye responses were observed. Concanavalin A binding was estimated from microelectrophoretic measurements of individual vesicles. Statistical analysis of concanavalin A binding and Mg-ATPase latency suggest that treated membranes have lost their asymmetric structure. 相似文献

Aseptic tomato and radish roots were found to exude, respectively, 2.8–5.3 and 290–390 ng tryptophan per seedling per day. The inoculation of radish plants with rhizosphere pseudomonads increased the root biomass by 1.4 times. The inoculation of tomato plants with the same pseudomonads was ineffective. The beneficial effect of bacterial inoculation on the radish plants can be explained by the fact that the introduced rhizobacteria produce the plant growth–stimulating hormone indole-3-acetic acid. In pot experiments, the addition of this phytohormone to the soil increased the mass of radish roots by 36%. The phytohormonal action of the rhizosphere microflora was found to be efficient provided that the concentration of tryptophan in the rhizosphere is sufficiently high. 相似文献

Corn ( Zea mays L.) root adaptation to pH 3.5 in comparison with pH 6.0 (control) was investigated in long-term nutrient solution experiments. When pH was gradually reduced, comparable root growth was observed irrespective of whether the pH was 3.5 or 6.0. After low-pH adaptation, H + release of corn roots in vivo at pH 5.6 was about 3 times higher than that of control. Plasmalemma of corn roots was isolated for investigation in vitro. At optimum assay pH, in comparison with control, the following increases of the various parameters were caused by low-pH treatment: (a) hydrolytic ATPase activity, (b) maximum initial velocity and Michaelis constant (c) activation energy of H +-ATPase, (d) H +-pumping activity, (e) H + permeability of plasmalemma, and (f) pH gradient across the membranes of plasmalemma vesicles. In addition, vanadate sensitivity remained unchanged. It is concluded that plasmalemma H +-ATPase contributes significantly to the adaptation of corn roots to low pH. A restricted net H + release at low pH in vivo may be attributed to the steeper pH gradient and enhanced H + permeability of plasmalemma but not to deactivation of H +-ATPase. Possible mechanisms responsible for adaptation of plasmalemma H +-ATPase to low solution pH during plant cultivation are discussed. 相似文献

Abstract: The acute effect of physiological doses of estradiol (E2) on the dopaminergic activity in the striatum was studied. In a first series of experiments, ovariectomized rats were injected with 17α or 17β E2 (125, 250, or 500 ng/kg of body weight, s.c.), and in situ tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) activity (determined by DOPA accumulation in the striatum after intraperitoneal administration of NSD 1015) was quantified. A dose-dependent increase in striatal TH activity was observed within minutes after 17β (but not 17α) E2 treatment. To examine whether E2 acts directly on the striatum, in a second series of experiments, anesthetized rats were implanted in the striatum with a push-pull cannula supplied with an artificial CSF containing [ 3H]tyrosine. The extracellular concentrations of total and tritiated dopamine (DA) and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylacetic acid (DOPAC) were measured at 20-min intervals. Addition of 10 ?9M 17β (but not 17α) E2 to the superfusing fluid immediately evoked an ~50% increase in [ 3H]DA and [ 3H]DOPAC extracellular concentrations, but total DA and DOPAC concentrations remained constant. This selective increase in the newly synthesized DA and DOPAC release suggested that E2 affects DA synthesis rather than DA release. Finally, to determine whether this rapid E2-induced stimulation of DA synthesis was a consequence of an increase in TH level of phosphorylation, the enzyme constant of inhibition by DA ( Ki DA) was calculated. Incubation of striatal slices in the presence of 10 ?9M 17β (but not 17α) E2 indeed evoked an approximate twofold increase in the Ki DA of one form of the enzyme. It is concluded that physiological levels of E2 can act directly on striatal tissue to stimulate DA synthesis. This stimulation appears to be mediated, at least in part, by a decrease in TH susceptibility to end-product inhibition, presumably due to phosphorylation of the enzyme. The rapid onset of this effect, and the fact that the striatum does not contain detectable nuclear E2 receptors, suggest a nongenomic action of the steroid. 相似文献

Peribacteroid membrane vesicles from pea (Pisum sativum) root nodules were isolated from membrane-enclosed bacteroids by an osmotic shock. The ATPase activity associated with this membrane preparation was characterized, and its electrogenic properties were determined. The pH gradient was measured as a change of the fluorescence intensity of 9-amino-6-chloro-2-methoxyacridine and the membrane potential as a shift of absorbance of bis-(3-propyl-5-oxoisoxazol-4-yl)pentamethine oxonol. It was demonstrated that the ATPase generates a pH gradient as well as a membrane potential across the peribacteroid membrane. The reversibility of the ATPase was demonstrated by a light-dependent ATP synthesis by peribacteroid membrane vesicles fused with bacteriorhodopsin-phospholipid vesicles. The light-driven ATP synthesis by the peribacteroid membrane ATPase was completely inhibited by a proton-conducting ionophore. The proton-pumping activity of the peribacteroid membrane ATPase could also be demonstrated with peribacteroid membrane-enclosed bacteroids, and effects on nitrogenase activity were established. At pH values below 7.5, an active peribacteroid membrane ATPase inhibited the nitrogenase activity of peribacteroid membrane-enclosed bacteroids. At pH values above 8, at which whole cell nitrogenase activity was inhibited, the protonpumping activity of the peribacteroid membrane ATPase could partially reverse the pH inhibition. Vanadate, an inhibitor of plasma membrane and peribacteroid membrane ATPases, stimulated nodular nitrogenase activity. It will be proposed that the proton-pumping activity of the peribacteroid membrane ATPase in situ is a possible regulator of nodular nitrogenase activity. 相似文献

Although l-malic acid is not an energy source for the malo-lactic organism Leuconostoc oenos (L. citrovorum) ML 34, the growth rate of the organism was found to be greatly increased by malo-lactic fermentation (the decarboxylation of l-malic acid to l-lactic acid). The stimulation was especially striking at the low pH (below pH 4) of wine, the natural habitat of this bacterium. The stimulation of growth did not result from changes in pH that accompany malo-lactic fermentation. Thus, these results suggest a biological function of malo-lactic fermentation. 相似文献

The study of the effect of the root exometabolites of tomato plants on the growth and antifungal activity of plant growth–promoting Pseudomonas strains showed that the antifungal activity of plant growth–promoting rhizobacteria in the plant rhizosphere may depend on the sugar and organic acid composition of root exudates. 相似文献

Root membrane potentials were measured by interposing a plantroot between two KCI solutions of different concentrations.The potentials measured across the two calomel electrodes werefound to depend on the position of the root. The potentialswere found to be lower when the root tip rather than the rootbase was in contact with the more concentrated solution. Thisindicates that the two parts of the root do not have the samein transport properties. Using an approximate theoretical treatmentthe observed potentials could be accounted for. 相似文献
