The objectives of this work were to measure growth and developmentrates over a range of temperatures and to identify processeswhich may limit vegetative yield of maize (Zea mays L.). Twosingle cross Corn Belt Dent maize hybrids were grown from sowingin a diurnal temperature regime of 16/6 °C day/night andin constant temperature environments of 16, 20, 24 and 28 °C.The 16/6 °C environment was close to the minimum for sustainedgrowth and 28 °C was near the optimum. Entire plants wereharvested at stages with 4, 6, 7 and 8 mature leaves in alltemperature treatments except 20 °C in which the final twoharvests were carried out at 9 and 10 mature leaves. Mean totalleaf number varied between 19.5 and 16.0 with the maximum occurringat 16/6 °C. Although harvests were carried out at comparableleaf numbers, and hence at similar developmental stages, thetime interval between sowing and harvest decreased considerablyas temperatures increased. The relative rates of dry weight and leaf area accumulationwith time increased with a Q10 of 2.4 between 16 and 28 °C,while leaf appearance rate increased with a Q10 of 2.9 overthe same range; both rates were highest at 28 °C. Althoughdry matter partitioning to the shoots increased with temperature,the area of individual leaves varied in a systematic patternwhich resulted in maximum leaf area, leaf area duration andconsequently dry weight being realized at 20 °C for anygiven stage of development.

Dormancy in Rice Seed: IV. VARIETAL RESPONSES TO STORAGE AND GERMINATION TEMPERATURES 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
Serial germination tests were carried out on dormant seeds ofsix rice varieties (four varieties of Oryza sativa L. and twovarieties of O. glaberrima Steud.) stored at several differentconstant temperatures within the range 27° C to 57°C. Probit analyses of the results were carried out to determmethe mean dormancy period for each variety at each temperature.Regression lines fitted to these data showed that there is adirect negative relationship between storage temperature andlog mean dormancy period over the range 27° C to 47°C, thus confirming a previous result obtained on a single variety.At 7° C there were indications of a slight departure fromthis relationship in that the mean dormancy periods at thistemperature were slightly longer than would have been predictedby extrapolation of the regressions calculated from the resultsobtained at lower temperatures. In all cases where the resultswere unambiguous (i.e. in all the sativa varieties and one ofthe glaberrima varieties) a constant Q10 of 3.13 was shown forthe rate of loss of dormancy over the range of storage temperaturesfrom 27° C to 47° C. In the remaining glaberrima variety,where the results were less reliable, a Q10 of 2.54 was found. Germination tests on all varieties were carried out at 32°C, but in the case of one sativa variety germination tests forall storage treatments were also duplicated at 27° C. Thisinvestigation showed that, in contrast to the effect of storagetemperature, the higher temperature during the germination testconsistently resulted in a lower percentage germination. Inaddition the results demonstrated that there is no interactionbetween storage temperature and germination temperature: consequentlythe storage-temperature coefficient has the same value irrespectiveof germination temperature. Some theoretical implications ofthe results are discussed. 相似文献

Hydromedion sparsutum is a locally abundant herbivorous beetle on the sub-Antarctic island of South Georgia, often living in close association
with the tussock grass Parodiochloa flabellata. Over a 4-day period in mid-summer when the air temperature varied from 0 to 20°C, the temperature in the leaf litter 5–10 cm
deep at the base of tussock plants (the microhabitat of H. sparsutum) was consistently within the range of 5–7.5°C. Experiments were carried out to assess the ability of H. sparsutum larvae collected from this thermally stable environment to acclimate when maintained at lower (0°C) and higher (15°C) temperatures.
The mean supercooling points (freezing temperature) of larvae collected in January and acclimated at 0°C for 3 and 6 weeks
and 15°C for 3 weeks were all within the range of −2.6 to −4.6°C. Larvae in all treatment groups were freeze tolerant. Acclimation
at 0°C significantly increased survival in a 15-min exposure at −8°C (from 27 to 96%) and −10°C (from 0 to 63%) compared with
the field-fresh and 15°C-treated larvae. Similarly, survival of 0°C-acclimated larvae in a 72-h exposure at −6°C increased
from 20 to 83%. Extending the acclimation period at 0°C to 6 weeks did not produce any further increase in cold tolerance.
The concentrations of glucose and trehalose in larval body fluids increased significantly with low temperature acclimation.
Larvae maintained at 15°C for 3 weeks (none survived for 6 weeks) were less able to survive 1-h exposures between 30 and 35°C
than the 0°C-treated samples. Whilst vegetation and snow cover are an effective buffer against low winter temperatures in
many polar insects, the inability of H. sparsutum larvae to acclimate or survive at 15°C suggests that protection against high summer temperatures is equally important for
this species.

Xylanase, β-glucosidase, β-xylosidase, endoglucanase and polygalacturonase production fromCurvularia inaequalis was carried out by means of solid-state and submerged fermentation using different carbon sources. β-Glucosidase. β-xylosidase,
polygalacturonase and xylanase produced by the microorganisms were characterized. β-Glucosidase presented optimum activity
at pH 5.5 whereas xylanase, poly-galacturonase and β-xylosidase activities were optimal at pH 5.0. Maximal activity of β-glucosidase
was determined at 60°C, β-xylosidase at 70°C, and polygalacturonase and xylanase at 55°C. These enzymes were stable at acidic
to neutral pH and at 40–45 °C. The crude enzyme solution was studied for the hydrolysis of agricultural residues. 相似文献

The effects of alkali treatment time and extraction time of native agar and alkali treated agar obtained from Gracilaria vermiculophylla were studied. The response characteristics were mainly agar yield and gel strength. Alkali treatment was carried out at 0.5,
1.0, 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 h. Agar yield and gel strength decreased with the increase in the time of the alkali treatment.
The highest yield (15.3%) and highest gel strength (1,064 g cm−2) were obtained at 0.5 h, and therefore this time was used for the next experiment. The extraction of both native and alkali
treated agars was carried out at 1.5, 2.0, 2.5, and 3.0 h. The best extraction time for alkali treated agar was 1.5 h, and
for native agar 2.5 h. The alkali treated agar obtained with the different alkali treatment and extraction times showed higher
melting (92.4–99.7°C) and gelling (35.7–39.6°C) temperatures. Native agar was lower in melting (60.2–64.1°C) and gelling (20.4–23.4°C)
temperatures. The 3,6-anhydrogalactose content decreased with increasing alkali treatment time, with the opposite effect during
the extraction of native and alkali treated agars. 相似文献

When seedlings grown at low (6 or 12°C) or high (36°C)root temperatures were transferred to 24°C the rates ofroot hair infection increased rapidly, generally to above thatof plants kept at 24°C. This switching-onof the infection process occurred irrespective of the time oftransfer between 6 and 14 d, but transfers from 36 to 24°C,at times later than 6 d showed a small lag period before thenumbers of infections increased. Responses to late transferat 22 d from either 6 or 36°C to 24°C were less striking.A reverse transfer from 24°C to 6 or 36°C at any timelater than 4 d caused no change in the infection rate. Whenplants at 6°C were moved at different times to temperaturesin the range of 1236°C for 8 h and then returnedto 6°C (double transfer) rates of infection were most increasedat 30°C; 36°C was inhibitory. The greatest and the quickestresponse was with plants transferred at 2 d; transfer at 10d had no effect. When plants grown at 6°C for 6 d were exposed to 24°Cfor 0.5, 1... 24 h and then returned to 6°C rates of infectionwere enhanced compared with plants held at 6°C; responseswere directly proportional to time (>1 h) spent at 24°C.Rates of infection were greatest immediately after transferand thereafter declined. 相似文献

Investigations into the effects of treatment with sodium hypochloritesolution on high-temperature germination of lettuce seed aredescribed. A 2 h treatment in a solution with 10% availablechlorine enabled up to c. 70% of seeds to germinate at 35 °C,without impairing germination and normal seedling developmentat 20 °C. A 10 min rinse in 0.01 N HCI following such treatmentenhanced its effect and treated seeds retained their abilityto germinate at high temperature for at least 18 months. Seedlingdevelopment at 20 °C following treatment was influencedby treatment temperature and batch of hypochlorite solution.Emergence from compost in a cycling (30/15 °C) temperatureregime was improved in three out of five cultivars tested, andthere were indications that hypochlorite treatment enabled oneof the other cultivars to escape induced thermodormancy.

Studies were carried out in 2000–2007 near Medusa Bay (73°21′N, 80°32′ E) and along the Agapa River (from 70°11′N, 86°15′
E. down to the mouth 71°26′ N, 89°13′ E), in the northwestern and central parts of the Taimyr Peninsula. White-fronted goose
nests are usually spread in the tundra or placed in 1–3 nest colonies near nests or staging points of snowy owls, peregrine
falcons, or rough-legged buzzards. The intent of white-fronted geese to breed near birds of prey or owls increases sharply
when arctic fox numbers are high. In the area near Medusa Bay, white-fronted geese nest much closer to peregrine falcon nests
than in the area along the Agra River. At the latter location, white-fronted geese lose the competition to red-breasted geese,
which are more numerous here. Bean geese, in spite of their greater size and ability to protect their nests against arctic
foxes, really tend to breed near peregrine falcons or buzzards, where they manage to compete with red-breasted geese. 相似文献

Morphology and culture studies on germlings of Sargassum thunbergii (Mertens et Roth) Kuntze were carried out under controlled laboratory conditions. Growth characteristics of these germlings
grown under different temperatures (from 10 to 25°C), irradiances (from 9 to 88 μmol photons m−2 s−1), and under blue and white light conditions are described. The development of embryonic germlings follows the classic “8
nuclei 1 egg” type described for Sargassaceae. Fertilized eggs spent 5–6 h developing into multicellular germlings with abundant
rhizoids after fertilization. Under conditions of 20°C, 44 μmol photons m−2 s−1 and photoperiod of 12 h, young germlings with one or two leaflets reached 2–3 mm in length after 8 weeks. Temperature variations
(10, 15, 20, 25°C) under 88 μmol photons m−2 s−1 significantly influenced the growth rate within the first week, although this effect became less obvious after 8 weeks, especially
at 15 and 20°C. Variation in germling growth was highly significant under different irradiances (9, 18, 44, 88 μmol photons
m−2 s−1) at 25°C. Low temperature (10°C) reduced germling growth. Growth of germlings cultured under blue light was lower than in
white light. Optimal growth of these germlings occurred at 25°C and 44 μmol photons m−2 s−1. 相似文献

The seasonal variability of phytoplankton in the EquatorialAtlantic was analysed using Sea-viewing Wide Field-of-view Sensor(SeaWiFS)-derived chlorophyll a (Chl a) concentration data from1998 to 2001, together with in situ Chl a and primary productiondata obtained during seven cruises carried out between 1995and 2000. Monthly averaged SeaWiFS Chl a distributions werein agreement with previous observations in the Equatorial Atlantic,showing marked differences between 10° W in the EasternTropical Atlantic (ETRA) and 25° W in the Western TropicalAtlantic (WTRA) provinces (Longhurst et al. 1995. J. PlanktonRes., 17, 12451271). The seasonal cycle of SeaWiFS-derivedChl a concentration calculated for 010° S, 020°W (ETRA) is consistent with in situ Chl a measurements, withvalues ranging from 0.16 mg m3, from February to April,to 0.52 mg m3 in August. Lower variability was observedin 10° N10° S, 2030° W (WTRA) whereminimum and maximum concentrations occurred in April (0.15 mgm3) and in August (0.24 mg m3), respectively.A significant empirical relationship between depth-integratedprimary production and in situ measured sea surface Chl a wasfound for ETRA, allowing us to estimate the seasonal cycle ofdepth-integrated primary production from SeaWiFS-derived Chla. As for Chl a, this model was verified in a small area ofthe Eastern Equatorial Atlantic (010° S, 020°W), although in this instance it was not completely able todescribe the magnitude and temporal variability of in situ primaryproduction measurements. The annual euphotic depth-integratedprimary production rate estimated for ETRA by our empiricalmodel was 1.4 Gt C year1, which represents 16% of theopen ocean primary production estimated for the whole AtlanticOcean. 相似文献

Stimulation of the rate of photosynthesis at 2·0 kPaO2 in comparison with 21 kPa O2 and carbohydrate accumulationover 4h were measured during exposure of sunflower (Helianthusannuus L.) and rape (Brassica napus L.), grown at 30 °Cand 13 °C, to temperatures between 7 °C and 35 °C.The effect of reducing source: sink ratio by shading on theresponse of photosynthetic rate to temperature was also determined.Stimulation of photosynthesis by 2·0 kPa O2 in comparisonwith 21 kPa O2 decreased over 4 h at cool temperatures in sunflowerplants grown at 30 °C but not in rape grown at 30 °C.Stimulation did not decrease over 4 h in plants grown at 13CC. Sucrose was the main carbohydrate accumulated over 4 h;its accumulation increased with decreasing temperature. Starchaccumulation either decreased or remained the same with decreasingtemperature. In plants grown at 30 °C more carbohydrateaccumulated between 8 °C and 21 °C in sunflower thanin rape, but more carbohydrate accumulated at 30 °C in rapethan in sunflower. In plants grown at 13 °C much less carbohydrateaccumulated between 13 °C and 23 °C than in plants grownat 30 °C. Photosynthetic rate in plants grown at 30 °Cexposed to between 20 °C and 35 °C over 32 h (14 h light-10h dark-8 h light), declined over 32 h at 20 °C and 25 °Cin sunflower and at 20 °C in rape. This fall over 32 h,especially at 20 °C in sunflower, was significantly reducedby shading the rest of the plant. Shading had little effecton photosynthetic rate above 25 °C. The work confirms thatlow temperature imposes a sink-limitation on photosynthesiswhich occurs at higher temperatures in sunflower than in rape.This limitation may be relieved by decreasing the source:sinkratio.

Changes in various components of photosynthetic activity duringthe dark induced senescence of detached wheat leaves, maintainedat 25°C (control) and 35°C (mildly elevated temperaturetreatment), were examined. Senescence-associated decline measuredup to 96 h, in photosynthetic activity was appreciably hastenedat 35°C, than at 25°C as evident by the relative higherlosses of chlorophyll, photosystem (PS) II and PS I catalyzedphotochemical activities and ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate (RuBP)carboxylase activity. In addition, a comparatively higher risein light scattering profile of isolated chloroplasts was notedat 35°C than at 25°C. Senescence-induced degradationof chlorophyll was faster at 35°C than at 25°C; on theother hand, the degradation of carotenoids was faster at 25°Cthan at 35°C. Furthermore, the ratio of carotenoids to chlorophyllincreased with senescence up to 96 hours, higher ratio beingobtained at 35°C than at 25°C. Both PS II and PS I activitiesshowed a transient rise in the beginning phase of dark incubation,whereas loss in chlorophyll was continuous throughout the periodof senescence. The initial rise observed in photochemical activitieswas attributable to the uncoupling of electron transport fromphotophosphorylation. Elevated temperature treatment resultedin greater inactivation of RuBP carboxylase than control. Itappears that during senescence the loss in chlorophyll and RuBPcarboxylase activity are triggered simultaneously. (Received June 7, 1985; Accepted October 30, 1985) 相似文献

We investigated function and ultrastructure of sciatic nerves isolated from wood frogs (Rana sylvatica) endemic to the Northwest Territories, Canada, following freezing at −2.5 °C, −5.0 °C, or −7.5 °C. All frogs frozen at −2.5 °C,
and most frogs (71%) frozen at −5.0 °C, recovered within 14 h after thawing began; however, frogs did not survive exposure
to −7.5 °C. Sciatic nerves isolated from frogs frozen at −7.5 °C were refractory to electrical stimulation, whereas those
obtained from frogs surviving exposure to −2.5 °C or −5.0 °C generally exhibited normal characteristics of compound action
potentials. Frogs responded to freezing by mobilizing hepatic glycogen reserves to synthesize the cryoprotectant glucose,
which increased 20-fold in the liver and 40-fold in the blood. Ultrastructural analyses of nerves harvested from frogs in
each treatment group revealed that freezing at −2.5 °C or −5.0 °C had little or no effect on tissue and cellular organization,
but that (lethal) exposure to −7.5 °C resulted in marked shrinkage of the axon, degeneration of mitochondria within the axoplasm,
and extensive delamination of myelin sheaths of the surrounding Schwann cells.

The composition and abundance of the poorly known benthic macroinfauna associated with northern Brazilian saltmarshes, were
described from eight sites (between 0°42′2.5″S, 47°52′44.1″W and 0°50′17.3″S, 46°36′13.3″W) along the Pará coast, Brazil.
Sampling was carried out in November of 2007. Univariate and multivariate analyses were used to test for differences in sediment,
vegetation and macroinfaunal variables among sites. No vertical zonation of the macroinfauna was detected. Macroinfaunal structure
differed greatly among sites with different sediment and vegetation characteristics. Number of individuals and taxa were low
in sites with sandy sediments and short, sparse vegetation and high in those with silty sediments with high organic matter
and water contents, and tall, dense vegetation. Increasing number of individuals and taxa were associated with a geographical
gradient in pore water salinity, which increases from west to east, coinciding with patterns of rainfall described for the
Pará coast. 相似文献

Under natural conditions in West Africa at the average groundtemperatures of 25-30° C, oil-palm seed germinates sporadicallyover a period of years, but with continuous heat treatment (38-40°C.) 50 per cent, germination of either nuts or extracted kernelsoccurs within a few months. The kernel comprises a small cylindrical embryo embedded ina mass of oily endosperm which in turn is surrounded by a thicktesta. At germination the testa and layer of endosperm coveringthe distal part of the embryo are forced out as a disc-likeoperculum which is already demarcated in the ungerminated kernelby a circular abscission zone in the endosperm cells. The excised embryo is non-dormant and at 30° C. starts toelongate within 24 hours, either on moist filter paper or whilestill in contact with the endosperm. At 30° C. removal of the operculum is followed by sluggishemergence of the embryo in air; emergence at the normal rateoccurs in pure oxygen, or in air if a long period at high temperatureprecedes de-operculation. Fresh intact kernels remain ungerminatedfor at least 6 months at 30° C, either in air or in pureoxygen. At high temperature (40° C.) intact kernels germinate fasterin pure oxygen than in air; at 30° C. the same applies onlyafter previous treatment at high temperature. This acceleratingeffect of oxygen is shown to be dependent upon the progressof slow processes stimulated by high temperature. It is postulated that germination of oil-palm seed is dependentupon a minimal threshold concentration of oxygen in the embryoand that during dormancy this minimal level progressively decreasesat a rate depending on the temperature. 相似文献

The role temperature plays during ethylene pretreatment on subsequentinduction of ethylene biosynthesis by Cellulysin or by a partiallypurified ethylene inducing factor (EIF) from Cellulysin in tobacco(Nicotiana tabacum L., cv. Xanthi) leaf discs was studied. Leaveswere pretreated with ethylene at three temperatures (7°C,25°C, and 40°C) followed by the induction of ethylenebiosynthesis at 23°C. At 25°C, ethylene pretreatmentstimulated subsequent Cellulysin-, EIF- or ACC-induced ethylenebiosynthesis and conjugation of ACC. At 7°C ethylene pretreatmenthad little effect on subsequent Cellulysin-, EIF- or ACC-inducedethylene biosynthesis, while 40°C pretreatment inhibitedsubsequent Cellulysin-, EIF- or ACC-induced ethylene biosynthesisat 23°C. The high temperature (40°C) pretreatment inhibitedsubsequent conversion of ACC to ethylene in both air and ethylenetreated tissues. (Received May 20, 1988; Accepted January 24, 1989) 相似文献

Vegetation classification is an important topic in plant ecology and many quantitative techniques for classification have
been developed in the field. The artificial neural network is a comparatively new tool for data analysis. The self-organizing
feature map (SOFM) is powerful tool for clustering analysis. SOFM has been applied to many research fields and it was applied
to the classification of plant communities in the Pangquangou Nature Reserve in the present work. Pangquangou Nature Reserve,
located at 37°20′–38°20′ N, 110°18′–111°18′ E, is a part of the Luliang Mountain range. Eighty-nine samples (quadrats) of
10m × 10m for forest, 4m × 4 m for shrubland and 1m × 1m for grassland along an elevation gradient, were set up and species
data was recorded in each sample. After discussion of the mathematical algorism, clustering technique and the procedure of
SOFM, the classification was carried out by using NNTool box in MATLAB (6.5). As a result, the 89 samples were clustered into
13 groups representing 13 types of plant communities. The characteristics of each community were described. The result of
SOFM classification was identical to the result of fuzzy c-mean clustering and consistent with the distribution patterns of
vegetation in the study area and shows significant ecological meanings. This suggests that SOFM may clearly describe the ecological
relationships between plant communities and it is a very effective quantitative technique in plant ecology research.

The aerobic biodegradation of high concentrations of 1-propanol and 2-propanol (IPA) by a mixed microbial consortium was
investigated. Solvent concentrations were one order of magnitude greater than any previously reported in the literature. The
consortium utilized these solvents as their sole carbon source to a maximum cell density of 2.4 × 109 cells ml−1. Enrichment experiments with propanol or IPA as carbon sources were carried out in batch culture and maximum specific growth
rates (μmax) calculated. At 20 °C, μ
max values were calculated to be 0.0305 h−1 and 0.1093 h−1 on 1% (v/v) IPA and 1-propanol, respectively. Growth on propanol and IPA was carried out between temperatures of 10 °C and
45 °C. Temperature shock responses by the microbial consortium at temperatures above 45 °C were demonstrated by considerable
cell flocculation. An increase in propanol substrate concentration from 1% (v/v) to 2% (v/v) decreased the μ
max from 0.1093 h−1 to 0.0715 h−1. Maximum achievable biodegradation rates of propanol and IPA were 6.11 × 10−3% (v/v) h−1 and 2.72 × 10−3% (v/v) h−1, respectively. Generation of acetone during IPA biodegradation commenced at 264 h and reached a maximum concentration of
0.4% (v/v). The results demonstrate the potential of mixed microbial consortia in the bioremediation of solvent-containing
waste streams.

The Effects of Low Growth and Measurement Temperature on the Respiratory Properties of Five Temperate Species 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Five temperate ruderal species, Epilobium glandulosum, Matricariamatricariodes, Melilotus alba, Sonchus asper and Taraxacum officinale,were grown under controlled conditions at both 10 °C and20 °C. Respiration was measured at 10 °C and 20 °C.Total dark respiration rates of plants grown at 10 °C wereconsistently higher than the rates of plants grown at 20 °C.This was due to greater respiratory activity along both thecytochrome (KCN-sensitive) and alternative (SHAM-sensitive)pathways in the cold grown plants. The capacity to use the alternativepathway was also greater in the 10 °C grown plants. Theincrease in the relative contribution of each pathway was speciesspecific. At a given growth temperature the activity of thealternative pathway varied little between measurements at 10°C and 20 °C. In contrast, the activity of the cytochromepathway was greater when measured at 20 °C than when itwas measured at 10 °C. The capacity of the alternative pathwaywas lower when measured at 10 °C. These results suggestthat the cytochrome pathway is more sensitive to temperaturestress than is the alternative pathway.
