Two portable instruments, designed to evaluate epidermal UV screening in leaves, were compared: the Dualex and the UV-A-PAM
fluorimeter. Both instruments excite chlorophyll fluorescence at the same UV wavelengths but reference excitation is in the
red and the blue spectral range in the former and the latter fluorimeter, respectively. When analyzing green leaves, general
agreement of the data is obtained with the two instruments. In the presence of anthocyanins, the UV-A-PAM fluorimeter provided
higher estimates for epidermal UV transmittance than the Dualex fluorimeter, which was attributed to absorption of blue excitation
light by anthocyanins. By comparing data from the instruments, anthocyanin-dependent transmittance of 50% was determined in
abaxial sides of some autumn leaves, and also in abaxial sides of tropical shade plants. Further, with leaves of chlorophyll
b-less mutants of H. vulgare, unusually high epidermal UV transmittance was detected but this was attributed to the lack of chlorophyll b absorption and, in addition, to absorption of blue radiation by xanthophylls which are not functionally connected to photosystems. 相似文献

Grapevine N fertilization may affect and be affected by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungal colonization and change berry composition.
We studied the effects of different N fertilizers on AM fungal grapevine root colonization and sporulation, and on grapevine growth, nutrition, and berry composition, by conducting
a 3.5-year pot study supplying grapevine plants with either urea, calcium nitrate, ammonium sulfate, or ammonium nitrate.
We measured the percentage of AM fungal root colonization, AM fungal sporulation, grapevine shoot dry weight and number of
leaves, nutrient composition (macro- and micronutrients), and grapevine berry soluble solids (total sugars or °Brix) and total acidity. Urea suppressed AM fungal root colonization and sporulation. Mycorrhizal grapevine plants had higher shoot
dry weight and number of leaves than non-mycorrhizal and with a higher growth response with calcium nitrate as the N source.
For the macronutrients P and K, and for the micronutrient B, leaf concentration was higher in mycorrhizal plants. Non-mycorrhizal
plants had higher concentration of microelements Zn, Mn, Fe, and Cu than mycorrhizal. There were no differences in soluble
solids (°Brix) in grapevine berries among mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal plants. However, non-mycorrhizal grapevine berries
had higher acid content with ammonium nitrate, although they did not have better N nutrition and vegetative growth. 相似文献

The F
0 and F
M level fluorescence from a wild-type barley, a Chl b-less mutant barley, and a maize leaf was determined from 430 to 685 nm at 10 nm intervals using pulse amplitude-modulated
(PAM) fluorimetry. Variable wavelengths of the pulsed excitation light were achieved by passing the broadband emission of
a Xe flash lamp through a birefringent tunable optical filter. For the three leaf types, spectra of F
V/F
M (=(F
M − F
0)/F
M) have been derived: within each of the three spectra of F
V/F
M, statistically meaningful variations were detected. Also, at distinct wavelength regions, the F
V/F
M differed significantly between leaf types. From spectra of F
V/F
M, excitation spectra of PS I and PS II fluorescence were calculated using a model that considers PS I fluorescence to be constant
but variable PS II fluorescence. The photosystem spectra suggest that LHC II absorption results in high values of F
V/F
M between 470 and 490 nm in the two wild-type leaves but the absence of LHC II in the Chl b-less mutant barley leaf decreases the F
V/F
M at these wavelengths. All three leaves exhibited low values of F
V/F
M around 520 nm which was tentatively ascribed to light absorption by PS I-associated carotenoids. In the 550–650 nm region,
the F
V/F
M in the maize leaf was lower than in the barley wild-type leaf which is explained with higher light absorption by PS I in
maize, which is a NADP-ME C4 species, than in barley, a C3 species. Finally, low values of F
V/F
M at 685 in maize leaf and in the Chl b-less mutant barley leaf are in agreement with preferential PS I absorption at this wavelength. The potential use of spectra
of the F
V/F
M ratio to derive information on spectral absorption properties of PS I and PS II is discussed. 相似文献

Using 77 K chlorophyll a (Chl a) fluorescence spectra in vivo, the development was studied of Photosystems II (PS II) and I (PS I) during greening of barley under intermittent light followed
by continuous light at low (LI, 50 μmol m−2 s−1) and high (HI, 1000 μmol m−2 s−1) irradiances. The greening at HI intermittent light was accompanied with significantly reduced fluorescence intensity from
Chl b excitation for both PS II (F685) and PS I (F743), in comparison with LI plants, indicating that assembly of light-harvesting
complexes (LHC) of both photosystems was affected to a similar degree. During greening at continuous HI, a slower increase
of emission from Chl b excitation in PS II as compared with PS I was observed, indicating a preferred reduction in the accumulation of LHC II. The
following characteristics of 77 K Chl a fluorescence spectra documented the photoprotective function of an elevated content of carotenoids in HI leaves: (1) a pronounced
suppression of Soret region of excitation spectra (410–450 nm) in comparison with the red region (670–690 nm) during the early
stage of greening indicated a strongly reduced excitation energy transfer from carotenoids to the Chl a fluorescing forms within PS I and PS II; (2) changes in the shape of the excitation band of Chl b and carotenoids (460–490 nm) during greening under continuous light confirmed that the energy transfer from carotenoids to
Chl a within PS II remained lower as compared with the LI plants.

The phenology and damage patterns of Lygocoris spinolae (Meyer-Dür) on ‘Campbell Early’ grape were examined in different grape development stage of inflorescence formation, blooming, and berry set. Nymphs fed on newly unfolding leaves of shoot tip before inflorescence formation. As the inflorescences were clearly visible, nymphs on leaves moved to flower clusters. Sting spots with brown color occurred at sucking sites of leaves, then expanded to hole as the leaves developed, and resulted in leaf malformation. The nymphs on flower clusters sucked developing florets, which induced the drying of florets followed by defoliation. After flower caps had fallen, L. spinolae fed on young berries causing blackening of berry skin around the sting. The blackening of berry skin changed to corky-scarred tissue as the berry developed. L. spinolae feeding significantly reduced the number of berries per cluster in all grape stages. A few berries became corky-scarred or shot berries when fed at inflorescence formation period. Feeding at blooming caused shot berries with low rate of corky-scarred berry. Most of the berries were corky-scarred or became shot berries when fed at berry set. Feeding by adults caused the same damage patterns as nymphs. Heavy damages were observed where L. spinolae were introduced after inflorescence formation: reduced number of berries per cluster by 35.0 to 99.1% at blooming and by 80.0% at berry setting depending on L. spinolae densities. 相似文献

Cotyledons excised from dark-grown seedlings of cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) were cultured in vitro under UV radiation at different wavelengths, obtained by passage of light through cut-off filters with different transmittance properties. Growth and the synthesis of chlorophyll (Chl) in cotyledons were inhibited and malondialdehyde was accumulated upon irradiation at wavelengths below 320 nm. Exogenous application of scavengers of free radicals reversed the growth inhibition induced by UV-B. Measurement of the fluorescence of Chl a suggested that electron transfer in photosystems was affected by UV-B irradiation. On the basis of these results, the involvement is postulated of active species of oxygen in damages to thylakoid membranes and the growth inhibition that are induced by UV-B irradiation.Abbreviations Chl

Microarray analysis of Vitis vinifera cv. Shiraz developing berries has revealed the expression patterns of several categories of genes. Microarray slides were constructed from 4,608 PCR-amplified cDNA clones derived from a ripening grape berry cDNA library. The mRNA expression levels of the genes represented by these cDNAs were measured in flowers, week 2 post-flowering whole berries, week 5, week 8, week 10 (véraison, green berries), week 12 and week 13 berry skin. In addition, a comparison of RNA expression in pigmented and unpigmented berry skin at véraison (week 10) was undertaken. Image and statistical analysis revealed four sets of genes with distinctive and similar expression profiles over the course of berry development. The first set was composed of genes which had maximum RNA expression in flowers, followed by a steady decrease in expression. The most prominent group within this set were genes which have a role in photosynthesis. The second set of cDNAs was dominated by genes involved in flavonoid biosynthesis and had a peak of expression week 2 post-flowering. The data indicate co-ordinate regulation of flavonoid biosynthetic genes which code for the enzymes 4-coumarate-CoA ligase, chalcone synthase, chalcone isomerase, flavonone hydroxylase, anthocyanidin reductase and cytochrome b5. The third set of cDNAs exhibited maximum expression week 5 post-flowering, midway between flowering and véraison, a period of rapid berry growth. This set of cDNAs is dominated by genes which code for structural cell wall proteins. The fourth set of genes was dramatically up-regulated at véraison and remained up-regulated until 13 weeks post-flowering. This set of genes was composed of a diverse range of genes, a reflection of the complexity of ripening, most with no known function. 相似文献

Differential incorporation of 1-deoxy-D-xylulose into (3S)-linalool and geraniol in grape berry exocarp and mesocarp 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
In vivo feeding experiments with [5,5-(2)H(2)]mevalonic acid lactone (MVL) and [5,5-(2)H(2)]-1-deoxy-D-xylulose (DOX) indicate that the novel mevalonate-independent 1-deoxy- D-xylulose 5-phosphate/2C-methyl- D-erythritol 4-phosphate (DOXP/MEP) pathway is the dominant metabolic route for monoterpene biosynthesis in grape berry exocarp and mesocarp and in grape leaves. The highly uneven distribution of the monoterpene alcohols (3S)-linalool and geraniol between leaves, berry exocarp and berry mesocarp can be attributed to a compartmentation of monoterpene metabolism. In grape berries incorporation of [5,5-(2)H(2)]-DOX into geraniol is mainly restricted to the exocarp, whereas (3S)-linalool biosynthesis can be detected in exocarp as well as in mesocarp tissue. The results demonstrate that grape berries exhibit an autonomic monoterpene biosynthesis via the novel DOXP/MEP route throughout the ripening process. 相似文献

Measurement of leaf epidermal transmittance of UV radiation by chlorophyll fluorescence 总被引:8,自引:0,他引:8
Wolfgang Bilger Markus Veit Lukas Schreiber Ulrich Schreiber 《Physiologia plantarum》1997,101(4):754-763
In higher plants one of the important functions of the leaf epidermis is the effective screening of ultraviolet-B (280–320 nm, UV-B) radiation, due mostly to phenolic compounds. The assessment of the contribution of this function is necessary for an evaluation of the impact of increasing UV-B radiation. A method is proposed to estimate epidermal transmittance on the basis of chlorophyll fluorescence measurements. Fluorescence of chlorophyll induced by UV-A (320–400 nm, measuring beam centered at 366 nm, half band width 32 nm) or UV-B (measuring beam centered at 314 nm, half band width 18 nm) is compared to that induced by a blue-green measuring light (475 nm, half band width 140 nm). It is shown that the ratios of UV-and blue-green (BG)-induced fluorescence, F(UV-A)/F(BG) and F(UV-B)/F(BG), are relatively constant among leaf samples of various species ( Vicia faba, Spinacia oleracea, Rumex scutatus ) from which the epidermis was removed. In epidermis-free leaves no significant differences were found between adaxial and abaxial leaf sides, suggesting that leaf structure has negligible influence on the F(UV)/F(BG) ratios. On the other hand, fluorescence excitation ratios varied over a vast range when intact leaves from different species and habitats were investigated. Ratios were low in sun leaves and relatively high in shade- and greenhouse-grown leaves. By relating these results to those obtained with epidermis-free leaves, epidermal transmittances for UV-B radiation could be estimated, with values ranging between 1 and 45%. The data demonstrate a large adaptability of epidermal UV-A and UV-B transmittance in higher plants. The proposed method may prove a versatile and relatively simple tool for investigating epidermal UV transmittance complementing established methods. 相似文献

Potassium accumulation is essential for grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) growth and development, but excessive levels in berries at harvest may reduce wine quality particularly for red wines. In addition to decreasing the free acid levels, potassium also combines with tartaric acid to form largely insoluble potassium bitartrate. This precipitates during winemaking and storage, resulting in an increase in wine pH that is associated with negative impacts on wine colour, flavour, and microbiological stability. For these reasons, a better understanding of potassium transport and accumulation within the vine and berries is important for producing fruit with improved winemaking characteristics. Here two genes encoding KUP/KT/HAK-type potassium transporters that are expressed in grape berries are described. Their function as potassium transporters was demonstrated by complementation of an Escherichia coli mutant. The two transporters are expressed most highly in the berry skin during the first phase of berry development (pre-veraison), with similar patterns in two grapevine varieties. The timing and location of expression of these transporters are consistent with an involvement in potassium accumulation in grape berries. 相似文献

We compared by chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence imaging the effects of two strains of the same virus (Italian and Spanish strains
of the Pepper mild mottle virus — PMMoV-I and-S, respectively) in the host plant Nicotiana benthamiana. The infection was visualized either using conventional Chl fluorescence parameters or by an advanced statistical approach,
yielding a combinatorial set of images that enhances the contrast between control and PMMoV-infected plants in the early infection
steps. Among the conventional Chl fluorescence parameters, the non-photochemical quenching parameter NPQ was found to be an
effective PMMoV infection reporter in asymptomatic leaves of N. benthamiana, detecting an intermediate infection phase. The combinatorial imaging revealed the infection earlier than any of the standard
Chl fluorescence parameters, detecting the PMMoV-S infection as soon as 4 d post-inoculation (dpi), and PMMoV-I infection
at 6 dpi; the delay correlates with the lower virulence of the last viral strain. 相似文献

During grape berry (Vitis vinifera L.) ripening, sucrose transported from the leaves is accumulated in the berry vacuoles as glucose and fructose. To study the involvement of invertase in grape berry ripening, we have cloned two cDNAs (GIN1 and GIN2) from berries. The cDNAs encode translation products that are 62% identical to each other and both appear to be vacuolar forms of invertase. Both genes are expressed in a variety of tissues, including berries, leaves, roots, seeds, and flowers, but the two genes have distinct patterns of expression. In grape berries, hexose accumulation began 8 weeks postflowering and continued until the fruit was ripe at 16 weeks. Invertase activity increased from flowering, was maximal 8 weeks postflowering, and remained constant on a per berry basis throughout ripening. Expression of GIN1 and GIN2 in berries, which was high early in berry development, declined greatly at the commencement of hexose accumulation. The results suggest that although vacuolar invertases are involved in hexose accumulation in grape berries, the expression of the genes and the synthesis of the enzymes precedes the onset of hexose accumulation by some weeks, so other mechanisms must be involved in regulating this process. 相似文献

The effects of different spectral region of excitation and detection of chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence at room temperature on the estimation of excitation energy utilization within photosystem (PS) 2 were studied
in wild-type barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Bonus) and its Chl b-less mutant chlorina f2 grown under low and high irradiances [100 and 1 000 μmol(photon) m−2 s−1]. Three measuring spectral regimes were applied using a PAM 101 fluorometer: (1) excitation in the red region (maximum at the wavelength of 649 nm) and detection in the far-red region beyond 710 nm, (2) excitation in the blue region (maximum at the wavelength of 461 nm) and detection beyond 710 nm, and (3) excitation in the blue region and detection in the red region (660– 710 nm). Non-photochemical quenching of maximal (NPQ)
and minimal fluorescence (SV0), determined by detecting Chl a fluorescence beyond 710 nm, were significantly higher for blue excitation as compared to red excitation. We suggest that
this results from higher non-radiative dissipation of absorbed excitation energy within light-harvesting complexes of PS2
(LHC2) due to preferential excitation of LHC2 by blue radiation and from the lower contribution of PS1 emission to the detected
fluorescence in the case of blue excitation. Detection of Chl a fluorescence originating preferentially from PS2 (i.e. in the range of 660–710 nm) led to pronounced increase of NPQ, SV0, and the PS2 photochemical efficiencies (FV/FM and FV′/FM′), indicating considerable underestimation of these parameters using the standard set-up of PAM 101. Hence PS1 contribution to the minimal fluorescence level in the irradiance-adapted state may reach up to about 80 %. 相似文献

Sugars are key constituents that affect quality of grape berries, and consequently the grape metabolic profile relevant to wine’s industry. However, enzymes and transporter genes expression involved in sugar transport at different phenological stages are scarcely studied. In addition, little is known about the role of the plant hormones ABA and Gibberellin (GA3) as endogenous regulators, over the expression pattern of the sugars transporters genes in grapevine. The aim of this study was to analyze the expression pattern of the most relevant sugar transporters and invertases in leaves and berries of grapevine plants cv. Malbec during berry ripening stages and its shift after ABA and GA3 sprays. In leaves, VvHT1 was the sugar transporter highly expressed, whereas VvHT6 was the most abundant in berries throughout berry ripening. Moreover, VvSUC12 and VvSUC27 were expressed at veraison greater in leaves than in berries, suggesting an active phloem loading at the onset of ripening. Applications of ABA and GA3 enhanced the expression of VvSUC12 and VvSUC27 in pre-veraison leaves. Furthermore, hormones increased the expression of VvHT2, VvHT3 and VvHT6 in berries at different stages of ripening favoring sugar unloading from phloem. In conclusion, ABA and GA3 are involved in the long-distance sugar transport from leaves to berries in Vitis vinifera L. cv. Malbec, and their exogenous application could be a suitable strategy to improve the process. 相似文献

With a flash-lamp chlorophyll (Chl) fluorescence imaging system (FL-FIS) the photosynthetic activity of several thousand image points of intact shade and sun leaves of beech were screened in a non-destructive way within a few seconds. The photosynthetic activity was determined via imaging the Chl fluorescence at maximum Fp and steady state fluorescence Fs of the induction kinetics (Kautsky effect) and by a subsequent determination of the images of the fluorescence decrease ratio RFd and the ratio Fp/Fs. Both fluorescence ratios are linearly correlated to the photosynthetic CO2 fixation rates. This imaging method permitted to detect the gradients in photosynthetic capacity and the patchiness of photosynthetic quantum conversion across the leaf. Sun leaves of beech showed a higher photosynthetic capacity and differential pigment ratios (Chl a/b and Chls/carotenoids) than shade leaves. Profile analysis and histogram of the Chl fluorescence yield and the Chl fluorescence ratios allow to quantify the differences in photosynthetic activity between different leaf parts and between sun and shade leaves with a high statistical significance. 相似文献

Proanthocyanidins (PAs), also called condensed tannins, can protect plants against herbivores and are important quality components of many fruits. Two enzymes, leucoanthocyanidin reductase (LAR) and anthocyanidin reductase (ANR), can produce the flavan-3-ol monomers required for formation of PA polymers. We isolated and functionally characterized genes encoding both enzymes from grapevine (Vitis vinifera L. cv Shiraz). ANR was encoded by a single gene, but we found two highly related genes encoding LAR. We measured PA content and expression of genes encoding ANR, LAR, and leucoanthocyanidin dioxygenase in grape berries during development and in grapevine leaves, which accumulated PA throughout leaf expansion. Grape flowers had high levels of PA, and accumulation continued in skin and seeds from fruit set until the onset of ripening. VvANR was expressed throughout early flower and berry development, with expression increasing after fertilization. It was expressed in berry skin and seeds until the onset of ripening, and in expanding leaves. The genes encoding LAR were expressed in developing fruit, particularly in seeds, but had low expression in leaves. The two LAR genes had different patterns of expression in skin and seeds. During grape ripening, PA levels decreased in both skin and seeds, and expression of genes encoding ANR and LAR were no longer detected. The results indicate that PA accumulation occurs early in grape development and is completed when ripening starts. Both ANR and LAR contribute to PA synthesis in fruit, and the tissue and temporal-specific regulation of the genes encoding ANR and LAR determines PA accumulation and composition during grape berry development. 相似文献

Effects of short-term exposure to different irradiances on the function of photosystem 2 (PS2) were studied for barley grown
at low (LI; 50 μmol m−2 s−1) and high (HI; 1 100 μmol m−2 s−1) irradiances. HI barley revealed higher ability to down-regulate the light-harvesting within PS2 after exposure to high irradiance
as compared to LI plants. This ability was estimated from the light-induced decreases of F685/F742 and E476/E436 in emission
and excitation spectra of 77 K chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence in vivo which was 65 and 10 % for HI plants as compared to 30 and 2 % for LI plants, respectively. For LI plants this protective
down-regulation of the light-harvesting of PS2 was saturated at 430 μmol m−2 s−1, and progressive PS2 photodamage was induced at higher irradiances. After exposure of LI segments to 2 200 μmol m−2 s−1 a pronounced maximum at 700 nm appeared in emission spectrum of 77 K Chl a fluorescence. Based on complementary analysis of 77 K excitation spectra measured at the emission wavelength 685 nm we suggest
that this emission maximum may be attributed to the formation of aggregates of light-harvesting complexes of PS2 (LHC2) with
part of PS2 core during progressive PS2 photodamage. Our results can be explained assuming different contributions of LHC2
and PS2 core to the total nonradiative dissipation of absorbed excitation energy for the LI and HI barley.

In order to better understand the defense strategy of grape berries ( Vitis vinifera L. cv. Pinot noir) as they mature, the activities of the defense‐related proteins, chitinase (CHV, EC 3.2.1.14) and β‐1,3‐glucanase (laminarinase, EC 3.2.1.39) were first estimated in berries at different maturation stages. Chitinase levels rose proportionally to the berry reducing sugar content, an indicator of the berry ripening degree, up to values 10 times higher than the ones seen in resting grapevine leaves. This rise in activity was due to the accumulation of two isoforms, CHV 5 and CHV 11. One more chitinase isoform, CHV 12, appeared in senescent berries. Conversely, no glucanase activity could be detected in berries at any maturation stage. Accumulation of chitinases and (β‐1,3‐glucanases could be stimulated by wounding the berry peduncle. Adding salicylic acid to the wounded berries only potentiated the wounding effect on the berry chitinase activity. The most active chitinase isoform, CHV 5, was purified to homogeneity. It represented about 40% of the total extractable protein content of a ripe berry. Its molecular mass was estimated to be 31 kDa. The peptide sequencing of four of its tryptic fragments revealed strong homologies to several class IV chitinases. Finally, it was shown to inhibit the germination of conidia of Botrytis cinerea by 50% at a concentration of 7.5 µg ml−1 . 相似文献
