铝诱导植物程序性细胞死亡信号转导的研究进展

铝是制约酸性土壤上作物生产的主要因素。铝诱导氧化胁迫产生大量活性氧/一氧化氮,引起胞质钙超载,通过线粒体信号转导途径激发相关凋亡基因,从而引起细胞主动死亡,以减轻铝对植物的进一步毒害。本文综述了铝诱导程序性细胞死亡的信号分子、相关基因以及信号转导途径,对未来的研究方向提出了展望,为深入研究植物铝毒害机理和耐铝机制提供参考。

植物体细胞胚发生中ATP酶活性时空分布动态与内源激素的变化

本文以我们的研究结果为基础,并结合国内外近几年有关研究报道,对植物体细胞胚发生中的超微结构和ATP酶活性时空分布动态及内源激素的变化和作用进行专题评述。⑴ 超微结构的变化：当植物体细胞一旦转化为胚性细胞后,各种细胞器相继增加,不仅丰富而且活跃,特别是线粒体内嵴发达,有的正处于分裂状态;核糖体聚集成多聚核糖体;质体中含大量淀粉粒,接着出现高尔基体等。早期胚性细胞与周围细胞还存在胞间连丝,随着胚性细胞壁的加厚,胞间连丝也随之消失。⑵ ATP酶时空分布动态：早期的胚性细胞中ATP酶反应产物主要沉积于质膜和液泡膜上,后期ATP酶活性转入细胞内,液泡和细胞核中,而且在胚性细胞壁加厚处有活跃的ATP酶活性反应,并证明ATP酶活性是在胚性细胞发生过程中形成的。⑶ 内源激素的变化与作用：在体细胞胚诱导过程中内源激素起着关键性作用,内源生长素含量的提高为胚性细胞的诱导奠定了基础,细胞分裂素含量的增加可促进胚性细胞的分裂和增殖,ABA不仅提高了体细胞胚的诱导频率,而且促进了体细胞胚的正常发育。     

硝普钠对铝胁迫下黑麦和小麦根尖线粒体功能的影响

硝普钠（SNP）能够缓解铝对黑麦和小麦根伸长生长的抑制效应。铝降低黑麦和小麦的呼吸速率和P／O、OPR、R3、R4、RCR值以及线粒体膜H^＋-ATP酶、H^＋-PP酶、Na^＋-K^＋-ATP酶、Ca^2＋-ATP酶、Mg^2＋-ATP酶活性,而SNP则能提高铝胁迫下呼吸速率、P/O、OPR、R3、R4、RCR值和这些酶活性。说明铝胁迫导致黑麦和小麦根尖细胞线粒体呼吸功能受损,氧化磷酸化解耦联。黑麦受损程度较小麦低,具有较强耐铝能力。SNP作为一氧化氮（NO）的供体,推测NO可以有效减轻铝胁迫导致的小麦根尖线粒体呼吸功能障碍,从而能够缓解铝毒害。     

Growth and cell wall properties of two wheat cultivars differing in their sensitivity to aluminum stress

The present study was conducted to investigate the cell wall properties in two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars differing in their sensitivity to Al stress. Seedlings of Al-resistant, Inia66 and Al-sensitive, Kalyansona cultivars were grown in complete nutrient solutions for 4 days and then subjected to treatment solutions containing Al (0, 50 microM) in a 0.5 mM CaCl(2) solution at pH 4.5 for 24 h. Root elongation was inhibited greatly by the Al treatment in the Al-sensitive cultivar compared to the Al-resistant cultivar. The Al-resistant cultivar accumulated less amount of Al in the root apex than in the Al-sensitive cultivar. The contents of pectin and hemicellulose in roots were increased with Al stress, and this increase was more conspicuous in the Al-sensitive cultivar. The molecular mass of hemicellulosic polysaccharides was increased by the Al treatment in the Al-sensitive cultivar. The increase in the content of hemicellulose was attributed to increase in the contents of glucose, arabinose and xylose in neutral sugars. Aluminum treatment increased the contents of ferulic acid and p-coumaric acid especially in the Al-sensitive cultivar by increasing the activity of phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL, EC 4.3.1.5). Aluminum treatment markedly decreased the beta-glucanase activity in the Al-sensitive cultivar, but did not exert any effect in the Al-resistant cultivar. These results suggest that the modulation of the activity of beta-glucanase with Al stress may be involved in part in the alteration of the molecular mass of hemicellulosic polysaccharides in the Al-sensitive cultivar. The increase in the molecular mass of hemicellulosic polysaccharides and ferulic acid synthesis in the Al-sensitive cultivar with Al stress may induce the mechanical rigidity of the cell wall and inhibit the elongation of wheat roots.     

用基因芯片技术分析铝胁迫下小麦的基因表达谱

目的:采用基因表达谱分析方法,探讨小麦耐铝的分子机理。方法:利用抑制消减杂交(SSH)技术,以小麦的铝敏感品种Chisholm及其耐铝近等基因系Chisholm-T(其耐铝性来自小麦品种Atlas66)的根尖为材料,构建了2个铝胁迫后的SSHcDNA文库,共含有1628个表达序列标签(EST),利用这些EST制作了小麦根系的cDNA基因芯片。以cDNA基因芯片为平台,在铝胁迫后6h、1d、3d和7d,分别比较Chisholm和Chisholm-T之间的基因表达谱差异。结果:在各个时间点,耐铝和不耐铝小麦材料之间约有5%的EST表现出差异表达。对所有差异表达的EST进行测序分析,序列数据经Pipe-Online2.0进行毗连序列群(contig)拼接,发现只有8.3%的重复序列。结论:SSH是一种非常有效的差减和均一化的建库方法。对有功能注释的差异表达基因进行功能分类分析,表明这些基因参与了植物体内的电子传递、信号传导、植物保护和次生物质的代谢活动。     

Effect of Enhanced Calcium Supply on Aluminum Toxicity in Relation to Cell Wall Properties in the Root Apex of Two Wheat Cultivars Differing in Aluminum Resistance

The present study was conducted to investigate the effects of enhanced Ca supply on Al toxicity in relation to cell wall properties in two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivars differing in Al resistance. Seedlings of Al-tolerant Inia66 and Al-sensitive Kalyansona cultivars were grown in complete nutrient solutions for 4 days then subjected to treatment solutions containing Al (0, 50 μM) and Ca (500, 2500 μM) at pH 4.5 for 24 h. Root elongation was affected greatly by Al treatment in the Al-sensitive cultivar and a significant improvement in root growth was observed with enhanced Ca supply during Al stress. Pectin and hemicellulose contents in the root cell walls increased with Al stress, and this increase was more conspicuous in the Al-sensitive cultivar. The molecular mass of hemicellulosic polysaccharides increased with Al treatment in the Al-sensitive cultivar and decreased with enhanced Ca supply. The increase in the molecular mass of hemicellulosic polysaccharides was attributed to increased content of glucose, arabinose and xylose in neutral sugars. Enhanced Ca supply slightly decreased the content of these components with Al stress. Aluminum treatment increased the contents of ferulic and p-coumaric acid, especially in the Al-sensitive cultivar, by increasing peroxidase (POD, EC 1.11.1.7) and phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL, EC 4.3.1.5) activity, whereas enhanced Ca supply during Al stress decreased the content of these components by decreasing POD and PAL activity. These results suggest that the increased molecular mass of hemicellulosic polysaccharides and phenolic compounds in the Al-sensitive cultivar with Al stress might have inhibited root elongation associated with cell wall stiffening related to cross-linking among cell-wall polymers and lignin. Enhanced Ca supply might maintain the normal synthesis of these materials even with Al stress.     

Five genes induced by aluminum in wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) roots.

Five different cDNAs (termed wali1 to wali5 for Wheat Aluminum Induced) whose expression was induced by Al stress have been isolated from the root tips of Al-treated wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) plants. Four of these genes were induced 24 to 96 h after Al treatment, and their expression is reduced when the Al is removed. Each of these four genes was induced by inhibitory levels of Al in two wheat cultivars--Warigal, an Al-sensitive cultivar, and Waalt, an Al-tolerant cultivar. The fifth gene (wali2) showed a complex bimodal pattern of induction and was induced by Al only in the sensitive cultivar. Comparison of the nucleotide sequences of these clones to those in the sequence data bases showed that wali4 is homologous to phenylalanine ammonia-lyase and wali1 is homologous to a group of plant proteins that are cysteine-rich and have homology to metallothioneins. wali2 encodes a novel protein with a repeating motif of cysteine amino acids. The remaining two wali clones (wali3 and wali5) encode related, cysteine-rich proteins that show no significant homology to any known sequences.     

铝胁迫对不同小麦SOD、CAT、POD活性和MDA含量的影响

方法:采用室内水培试验法,研究了不同浓度铝胁迫对耐性不同的几种基因型小麦叶片和根系内SOD、CAT、POD活性和MDA含量的影响。结果:表明铝胁迫条件下导致小麦叶片和根系的3种酶活性在一定范围内随胁迫强度的增加而上升,重度胁迫下会有所下降。这说明SOD、POD、CAT活性的提高与维持是植物耐铝胁迫的重要生理基础。另外,耐铝品种变化不显著,始终维持在比较稳定的活性水平,这可能与铝诱导的有机酸分泌有关,敏感性品种的酶活性在胁迫下会有所下降。而MDA含量在轻度胁迫下变化不明显,在重度胁迫下才会有明显变化,其含量的变化与小麦的耐铝性也有着密切的关系。     

Identification of new sources of aluminum resistance in wheat

Aluminum (Al) toxicity is a major constraint for wheat production in acidic soils. An Al resistance gene on chromosome 4DL that traces to Brazilian wheat has been extensively studied, and can provide partial protection from Al damage. To identify potentially new sources of Al resistance, 590 wheat accessions, including elite wheat breeding lines from the United States and other American and European countries, landraces and commercial cultivars from East Asia, and synthetic wheat lines from CIMMYT, Mexico, were screened for Al resistance by measuring relative root elongation in culture with a nutrient solution containing Al, and by staining Al-stressed root tips with hematoxylin. Eighty-eight wheat accessions demonstrated at least moderate resistance to Al toxicity. Those selected lines were subjected to analysis of microsatellite markers linked to an Al resistance gene on 4DL and a gene marker for the Al-activated malate transporter (ALMT1) locus. Many of the selected Al-resistant accessions from East Asia did not have the Al-resistant marker alleles of ALMT1, although they showed Al resistance similar to the US Al-resistant cultivar, Atlas 66. Most of the cultivars derived from Jagger and Atlas 66 have the Al-resistant marker alleles of ALMT1. Cluster analysis separated the selected Al-resistant germplasm into two major clusters, labeled as Asian and American–European clusters. Potentially new germplasm of Al resistance different from those derived from Brazil were identified. Further investigation of Al resistance in those new germplasms may reveal alternative Al-resistance mechanisms in wheat.

The kinetics of aluminum adsorption and desorption by root cell walls of an aluminum resistant wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar

In the present study, root cell walls were extracted from an Al-resistant wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar, Atlas 66 to investigate the effect of cell-wall properties on the kinetics of Al adsorption and desorption. Nearly all the Al adsorbed was desorbed by 2.5 mM CaCl₂ at pH 4.5, indicating that most of Al ions were electrically bound to cell wall materials. After the cell walls were treated with 1% pectinase for 30 min to degrade part of pectin, the total amount of Al absorbed was decreased by about 50%, indicating that pectin in the cell walls played an important role in binding Al. When the cell walls were preincubated in 1 and 10 mM malate solution overnight to mimic the organic acid secretion by the roots of wheat, the total amount of Al adsorbed was decreased by 60 and 80%, respectively, suggesting that the malate secreted in response to Al stress not only detoxifies Al by its chelating effect, but also reduce the cell walls' capacity to bind Al.     

Continuous secretion of organic acids is related to aluminium resistance during relatively long‐term exposure to aluminium stress

Secretion of organic acid has been suggested to be one of the mechanisms for Al resistance in short‐term experiments. In the present study, relatively long‐term response of roots to Al stress was investigated in terms of organic acid secretion. Eight plant cultivars belonging to 5 species that exhibited differential sensitivity to Al were used. Ten days of intermittent exposure to Al (one day in 0.5 m M CaCl₂ containing 50 µ M AlCl₃ at pH 4.5, alternating with one day in nutrient solution without Al) inhibited root growth by 65% in an Al‐sensitive cultivar of wheat ( Triticum aestivum L. Scout 66) and by 25‐50% in two cultivars of oilseed rape ( Brassica napus L. 94008 and H166), two cultivars of oat ( Avena sativa L. Tochiyutaka and Heoats), and an Al‐tolerant cultivar of wheat (Atlas 66). However, root growth was hardly affected by the same treatment in buckwheat ( Fagopyrum esculentum Moench Jianxi) and radish ( Raphanus sativus L. Guangxi). Organic acids were monitored during the first 6 h of each day of Al treatment, and both the kind and amount of organic acids secreted were found to differ among different species. Roots of buckwheat secreted oxalic acid, those of wheat exuded malic acid, while those of rapeseed, oats, and radish secreted both citric and malic acids. Three different patterns in response to relatively long‐term treatment of Al were found in terms of total amount of organic acids secreted: (1) the amount secreted was very low during the treatment (wheat cv. Scout 66, oat), (2) the amount gradually decreased with duration of treatment (wheat cv. Atlas 66, oilseed rape), and (3) the amount maintained at a high level during the whole period of Al treatment (buckwheat and radish). Combined with the results of growth inhibition, it is suggested that the continuous secretion of organic acids at a high level is related to high Al resistance.     

Nylon Filter Arrays Reveal Differential Expression of Expressed Sequence Tags in Wheat Roots Under Aluminum Stress

To enrich differentially expressed sequence tags (ESTs) for aluminum (Al) tolerance, cDNA subtraction libraries were generated from Al-stressed roots of two wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) nearisogenic lines (NILs) contrasting in Al-tolerance gene(s) from the Al-tolerant cultivar Atlas 66, using suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH). Expression patterns of the ESTs were investigated with nylon filter arrays containing 614 cDNA clones from the subtraction library. Gene expression profiles from macroarray analysis indicated that 25 ESTs were upregulated in the tolerant NIL in response to Al stress. The result from Northern analysis of selected upregulated ESTs was similar to that from macroarray analysis. These highly expressed ESTs showed high homology with genes involved in signal transduction, oxidative stress alleviation, membrane structure, Mg2 transportation, and other functions. Under Al stress, the Al-tolerant NIL may possess altered structure or function of the cell wall, plasma membrane, and mitochondrion. The wheat response to Al stress may involve complicated defense-related signaling and metabolic pathways.The present experiment did not detect any induced or activated genes involved in the synthesis of malate and other organic acids in wheat under Al-stress.     

Physiological basis of reduced Al tolerance in ditelosomic lines of Chinese Spring wheat

Aluminum tolerance was assessed in the moderately Al-tolerant wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) cultivar Chinese Spring and a set of ditelosomic lines derived from Chinese Spring. Three ditelosomic lines lacking chromosome arms 4DL, 5AS and 7AS, respectively, exhibited decreased Al tolerance relative to the euploid parent Chinese Spring based on reduced root growth in Al-containing solutions. The physiological basis of the reduced Al tolerance was investigated. Measurements by inductively coupled argon plasma mass spectroscopy of root apical Al accumulation demonstrated that two of these three lines had a decreased ability to exclude Al from the root apex, the site of Al phytotoxicity. As Al-induced malate exudation has been suggested to be an important physiological mechanism of Al tolerance in wheat, this parameter was quantified and malate exudation was shown to be smaller in all three deletion lines compared with Chinese Spring. These results suggest that the decreased Al tolerance in at least two of the three ditelosomic lines is due to the loss of different genes independently influencing a single Al-tolerance mechanism, rather than to the loss of genes encoding alternative Al-tolerance mechanisms.
