 The effect of root exudates from onions differing in P status on spore germination and hyphal growth of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi was investigated. Onion (Allium cepa) was grown in solution culture at different phosphorus concentrations (0, 0.1, 1.0, 8.0 and 24.0 mg P l–1) and root exudates were collected. When spores of the arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus, Gigaspora margarita were incubated with these root exudates, spore germination was only slightly affected but hyphal growth was greatly affected, particularly with exudates from P-deficient plants. This suggests that the P nutrition of host plants influences the composition of root exudates and thereby the hyphal growth of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. Accepted: 25 June 1995  相似文献

We studied the tolerance of ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi to sodium chloride (NaCl) to find the best fungus to aid growth of Pinus thunbergii. Four ECM fungi, Cenococcum geophilum, Pisolithus tinctorius, Rhizopogon rubescens, and Suillus luteus, were grown in liquid MMN media with five different concentrations of NaCl for 30 days, and their mycelial weights were determined. Mycelial weights of P. tinctorius and R. rubescens were not significantly different between 0 mM and 200 mM, whereas those of C. geophilum and S. luteus decreased with increasing NaCl concentration, indicating that the former two species were more tolerant to higher NaCl concentrations than the latter species. We further studied the intraspecific differences in NaCl tolerance of nine P. tinctorius isolates. They were grown on MMN agar media with six different concentrations of NaCl for 21 days, and their radial growth was measured. In total, the hyphal growth at 25 mM NaCl was significantly higher than those at the other NaCl concentrations, and EC50 values were confirmed at between 50 mM and 200 mM. Among the isolates, Pt03 and Pt21 showed measurable growth at 200 mM; the growth of Pt03 was not significantly different between 0 mM and 200 mM. The results indicate that there are intraspecific variations in NaCl tolerance of Pisolithus species.  相似文献

Eucalyptus is an important tree species used for afforestation of large tracts of marginal and wastelands. Eucalyptus-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal (AMF) interactions in seedling establishment and growth promotion have been inadequately dealt with. Efforts were made to assess the role of AMF-pseudomonad (PRS9, plant growth promotory fluorescent Pseudomonas) interactions in growth promotion and nursery establishment of E. hybrid. Seedlings were subjected to six different treatments: (i) uninoculated control, (ii) 400 AM spores, (iii) 800 AMF spores, (iv) PRS9 (v) 400 AMF spores + PRS9, (vi) 800 AMF spores + PRS9, with the different P regimes of 10, 20 and 30 ppm. Root length, shoot length, root and shoot fresh and dry weights were maximal at 400 AMF spores and 20 ppm soil P. Shoot P content was maximal at 800 AMF spores followed by 400 AMF spores and 400 AMF spores + PRS9. In general, plant growth was greater at 20 ppm P. Root P content increased significantly with 400 AMF spores followed by 800 at 20 ppm P. Independent of soil P levels, the quality index of mycorrhizal treatments without PRS9 was significantly higher than the treatments including PRS9 or PRS9 alone. Mycorrhizal inoculation efficiency was superior at 10 ppm P irrespective of the treatment. AM alone (400 spores) significantly improved the inoculation efficiency. PRS9 in association with AM fungi inhibited growth promotion and nutrient uptake Accepted: 8 September 1999  相似文献

Monokaryons of Coprinus cinereus constitutively form small spores (oidia) in the aerial mycelium. Some strains also produce large, inflated single cells (chlamydospores) at the agar/air interface, and hyphal aggregates (hyphal knots) that can develop into sclerotia. Monokaryons show various reactions upon transformation with heterologous A mating type genes. Production of oidia in such A-activated transformants is repressed in the dark and induced by blue light. Five of six monokaryons tested following transformation with A genes showed induced production of hyphal knots and sclerotia in the dark, and at least three strains showed enhanced chlamydospore production in the dark. Continuous incubation under blue light inhibited formation of hyphal knots, sclerotia and chlamydospores in both competent monokaryons and in A-activated transformants. On artificial medium and on a 12 h light/12 h dark regime, A-activated transformants of one distinct monokaryon (218) formed fruit-body primordia that were arrested in development before karyogamy. Our studies show that A mating type genes control all major differentiation processes in Coprinus, but whether developmental processes can proceed depends on the genetic background of the strain.

In order to characterise the effect of ectomycorrhiza on Na+-responses of the salt-sensitive poplar hybrid Populus × canescens, growth and stress responses of Paxillus involutus (strain MAJ) were tested in liquid cultures in the presence of 20 to 500 mM NaCl, and the effects of mycorrhization on mineral nutrient accumulation and oxidative stress were characterised in mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal poplar seedlings exposed to 150 mM NaCl. Paxillus involutus was salt tolerant, showing biomass increases in media containing up to 500 mM NaCl after 4 weeks growth. Mycorrhizal mantle formation on poplar roots was not affected by 150 mM NaCl. Whole plant performance was positively affected by the fungus because total biomass was greater and leaves accumulated less Na+ than non-mycorrhizal plants. Energy dispersive X-ray microanalysis using transmission electron microscopy analysis of the influence of mycorrhization on the subcellular localisation of Na+ and Cl in roots showed that the hyphal mantle did not diminish salt accumulation in root cell walls, indicating that mycorrhization did not provide a physical barrier against excess salinity. In the absence of salt stress, mycorrhizal poplar roots contained higher Na+ and Cl concentrations than non-mycorrhizal poplar roots. Paxillus involutus hyphae produced H2O2 in the mantle but not in the Hartig net or in pure culture. Salt exposure resulted in H2O2 formation in cortical cells of both non-mycorrhizal and mycorrhizal poplar and stimulated peroxidase but not superoxide dismutase activities. This shows that mature ectomycorrhiza was unable to suppress salt-induced oxidative stress. Element analyses suggest that improved performance of mycorrhizal poplar under salt stress may result from diminished xylem loading of Na+ and increased supply with K+.  相似文献

Polyamines are known to strongly stimulate hyphal growth in arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi. The effect of the polyamines putrescine, spermidine and spermine on spore germination, hyphal elongation and branching by the AM fungus Glomus etunicatum was investigated in this study. The effect of spermine on infection and the development of the host and of daughter spores was further investigated using the dual monoaxenic culture system comprised of Gl. etunicatum fungal cultures in Ri T-DNA transformed carrot hairy roots. Spermidine and spermine showed positive effects on germination and all three polyamines significantly promoted hyphal growth. Hyphal branching was also strongly stimulated by treatment with polyamines, such as an increase in the number of branches. Infection during the early stages of the in vitro co-culture life cycle was enhanced in the presence of spermine, and daughter spores appeared at earlier timepoints compared to the control. Our results demonstrate that polyamines stimulate germination and hyphal branching in the early stage of AM fungal colonization. Moreover, results from the investigations conducted in the fungus-root co-culture suggest that polyamines may be involved in establishing the symbiotic relationship between root and fungus.  相似文献

Summary. Glutathione (reduced form GSH and oxidized form GSSG) constitutes an important defense against oxidative stress in the brain, and taurine is an inhibitory neuromodulator particularly in the developing brain. The effects of GSH and GSSG and glycylglycine, γ-glutamylcysteine, cysteinylglycine, glycine and cysteine on the release of [3H]taurine evoked by K+-depolarization or the ionotropic glutamate receptor agonists glutamate, kainate, 2-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionate (AMPA) and N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) were now studied in slices from the hippocampi from 7-day-old mouse pups in a perfusion system. All stimulatory agents (50 mM K+, 1 mM glutamate, 0.1 mM kainate, 0.1 mM AMPA and 0.1 mM NMDA) evoked taurine release in a receptor-mediated manner. Both GSH and GSSG significantly inhibited the release evoked by 50 mM K+. The release induced by AMPA and glutamate was also inhibited, while the kainate-evoked release was significantly activated by both GSH and GSSG. The NMDA-evoked release proved the most sensitive to modulation: L-Cysteine and glycine enhanced the release in a concentration-dependent manner, whereas GSH and GSSG were inhibitory at low (0.1 mM) but not at higher (1 or 10 mM) concentrations. The release evoked by 0.1 mM AMPA was inhibited by γ-glutamylcysteine and cysteinylglycine, whereas glycylglycine had no effect. The 0.1 mM NMDA-evoked release was inhibited by glycylglycine and γ-glutamylcysteine. In turn, cysteinylglycine inhibited the NMDA-evoked release at 0.1 mM, but was inactive at 1 mM. Glutathione exhibited both enhancing and attenuating effects on taurine release, depending on the glutathione concentration and on the agonist used. Both glutathione and taurine act as endogenous neuroprotective effectors during early postnatal life. Authors’ address: Prof. Simo S.

In Streptomyces peucetius var. caesius, the production of anthracyclines was suppressed either by 330 mM d-glucose or 25 mM phosphate. In addition, the anthracycline doxorubicin and the glucose analogue 2-deoxyglucose inhibited the growth of this microorganism at concentrations of 0.025 mM and 10 mM respectively. Spontaneous and induced mutants, resistant to the action of these compounds, were isolated, tested and chosen by their ability to overproduce anthracyclines. Genetic recombination between representative mutants was carried out by the protoplast fusion technique. Some recombinants carrying resistance to doxorubicin, phosphate and 2-deoxyglucose produced more than 40-fold greater levels of anthracyclines than those obtained with the parental strain. This improvement resulted in total antibiotic titres of more than 2 g/l culture medium at 6 days of fermentation.

 Strips of horticultural film (16–32 cm2) were used to trap extraradical hyphae emanating from roots of sudangrass [Sorghum sudanense (Piper) Staph] enclosed in 40-μm mesh bags and colonized by Gigaspora rosea FL 224-1, Glomus intraradices EY 113/114, or Glomus caledonium UK 301-1. Strips of film were placed at opposite sides of 17–21 replicate sand culture pots for each isolate and were removed after 12–14 weeks of plant growth. To extract glomalin, a strip was cut into small pieces and submerged in 2 ml of 20 mM citrate, pH 7.0 and then autoclaved for 60 min. A quantitative enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) detected 0.005–0.04 μg glomalin in the volume of extract tested. The Bradford protein assay detected 1.25–5 μg of protein in the volume of extract tested. Both assays gave results ranging from 5–40 μg glomalin/cm2 of film. Protein assay values were correlated with ELISA values (r=0.6091, P≤0.001, n=118). Analysis of variance indicated that isolates differed in Bradford protein values (P=0.001), but not ELISA values (P=0.154). Spatial variability of glomalin deposition ca. 7 cm from roots on opposite sides of pots was indicated by significant paired T tests (P<0.05) for protein values for each of the three isolates and ELISA for two isolates. These results indicate that hyphal traps, Bradford protein assay and ELISA are useful to assess hyphal activity over a growing season. Accepted: 11 October 1998  相似文献

Prunella vulgaris was inoculated with different arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) and grown at two concentrations of CO2 (ambient, 350 μl l−1, and elevated, 600 μl l−1) to test whether a plants response to elevated CO2 is dependent on the species of AMF colonizing the roots. Using compartments accessible only to AMF hyphae but not to roots, we also tested whether elevated CO2 affects the growth of external AMF hyphae. Plant biomass was significantly greater at elevated than at ambient CO2; the biomass of the root system, for example, increased by a factor of 2. The colonization of AMF inside the root remained constant, indicating that the total AMF inside the root system also increased by a factor of 2. The length of external AMF hyphae at elevated CO2 was up to 5 times that at ambient CO2, indicating that elevated CO2 promoted allocation of AMF biomass to the external hyphae. The concentration and content of phosphorus in the stolons differed significantly between ambient and elevated CO2 but this resulted in either an increase or a decrease, according to which AMF isolate occupied the roots. We hypothesized that an increase in external hyphal growth at elevated CO2 would result in increased P acquistion by the plant. To test this we supplied phosphorus, in a compartment only accessible to AMF hyphae. Plants did not acquire more phosphorus at elevated CO2 when phosphorus was added to this compartment. Large increases in AMF hyphal growth could, however, play a significant role in the movement of fixed carbon to the soil and increase soil aggregation.

 A stepwise procedure was investigated to determine the optimal conditions for the establishment of Glomus mosseae (Nicol. & Gerd.) Gerdemann & Trappe in dual in vitro culture with Ri T-DNA-transformed roots of Daucus carota L. Glomus mosseae spores germinated best in 10 mm Tris or MES-buffered medium at pH values just above neutral. Growth of hyphae from germinated spores was much greater in the presence of Tris than MES, eg. 8 mm versus 4 mm per spore for Tris and MES, respectively, at pH 7.2. Roots exhibited a broad pH optimum for growth of 6.0–7.0 in both MES and Tris, but did not grow well above pH 7.5. In addition, purified gelling agent, gellan gum, was utilized to lower the P concentration of media. With these factors combined, mycorrhizas were successfully established in 14% of dual cultures.

With the goal of developing a defined medium for the production of desiccation-tolerant blastospores of the bioinsecticidal fungus Paecilomyces fumosoroseus, we evaluated the impact of various media components such as amino acids, carbohydrates, trace metals and vitamins on hyphal growth and sporulation of P. fumosoroseus cultures and on the freeze-drying tolerance of blastospores produced under these conditions. A comparison of 13 amino acids as sole nitrogen sources showed that glutamate, aspartate, glycine and arginine supported biomass accumulations (12–16 mg ml−1) and blastospore yields (6–11 × 108 blastospores ml−1) comparable to our standard production medium which contains casamino acids as the nitrogen source. Using glutamate as the sole nitrogen source, tests with various carbohydrates showed that P. fumosoroseus grew best on glucose (18.8 mg biomass ml−1) but produced similar blastospore concentrations (7.3–11.0 × 108) when grown with glucose, glycerol, fructose or sucrose. P. fumosoroseus cultures grown in media with sodium citrate or galactose as the sole carbohydrate produced lower blastospore concentrations but more-desiccation-tolerant spores. Zinc was the only trace metal tested that was required for optimal growth and sporulation. In a defined medium with glutamate as the nitrogen source, vitamins were unnecessary for P. fumosoroseus growth or sporulation. When blastospores were freeze-dried in the absence of a suspension medium, residual glucose (>2.5% w/v) was required for enhanced spore survival. Thus, a defined medium containing basal salts, glucose, glutamate and zinc can be used to produce optimal concentrations of desiccation-tolerant blastospores of P. fumosoroseus.

We isolated and elucidated the structure of several stimulants for arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) in water-stressed bahia grass roots. We could isolate some compounds that promoted the growth of Gigaspora margarita Becker and Hall and Glomus caledonium (Nicol. and Gerd.) Trappe and Gerd. In these compounds, tryptophan dimer (Trp–Trp) was elucidated the structure. Trp–Trp was abundantly produced in water-stressed bahia grass roots and exuded to the soil, although it was scarcely detected in non-stressed root exudates. Interestingly, this peptide strongly attracted the hyphae of Gi. margarita and G. caledonium and promoted their hyphal growth in vitro (1.8 × longer than the control). Tryptophan, however, had no effect on hyphal growth and attraction. Thus, Trp–Trp exuded from water-stressed roots would play an important role as a major signal for AMF.

The spore germination rates on water agar of the vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal fungus Glomus fasciculatus were highest at water potentials of −4 to −6 bars. Root exudates from plants grown in a sterile nutrient solution, with or without phosphorus, did not affect germination. Root exudates collected from 2-, 4-, and 6-week-old Trifolium repens cv. `Ladino' seedlings that were deprived of P enabled hyphal growth from germinated Glomus fasciculatus spores of 21.4, 14.7, and 7.6 mm, respectively. Hyphal elongation in the presence of exudates from plants grown with P, or in the absence of exudates, was negligible (<1 mm). Root P at 2 weeks was not significantly different between plants grown with and without P. There were no significant differences between the quantities of exudates from plants grown with or without P at 2, 4, and 6 weeks. The data suggest that it is the quality of exudates from plants experiencing P deprivation that is important in stimulating vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal hyphal elongation.  相似文献

 In transmission electron microscopy studies, lanthanum ions have been used as electron-opaque tracers to delineate the apoplastic pathways for ion transport in barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) roots. To localize La3+ on the subcellular level, e.g. in cell walls and on the surface of membranes, electron-energy-loss spectroscopy and electron-spectroscopic imaging were used. Seminal and nodal roots were exposed for 30 min to 1 mM LaCl3 and 10 mM LaCl3, respectively. In seminal roots, possessing no exodermis, La3+ diffusion through the apoplast was stopped by the Casparian bands of the endodermis. In nodal roots with an exodermis, however, La3+ diffusion through the cortical apoplast had already stopped at the tight junctions of the exodermal cell walls resembling the Casparian bands of the endodermis. Therefore, we conclude that in some specialized roots such as the nodal roots of barley, the physiological role of the endodermis is largely performed by the exodermis.

The effects of the metal ions manganese and cobalt on force production by the abdominal superficial flexor muscle of the Norway lobster, Nephrops norvegicus, have been studied in response to both neuronal stimulation and electrical field stimulation applied to an isolated neuromuscular preparation, and by selectively blocking synaptic transmission with ivermectin. In response to both forms of stimulation, low concentrations of manganese added to the standard N. norvegicus saline increased the contractile force produced by the muscle, whereas higher concentrations of manganese inhibited both responses in a dose-dependent manner, until force was completely abolished at concentrations above 2.9 mM manganese. Cobalt ions produced similar effects, and no significant difference was found between the concentration of the two ions at 50% force inhibition (Km) or between the two stimulation methods (manganese: 1.22 mM; cobalt: 1.29 mM, P = 0.86). This suggests that they have a similar mode of action, and a postsynaptic site of inhibition. These Km values are considerably higher than the concentrations of these ions known to accumulate in the haemolymph of N. norvegicus under eutrophic conditions, and it therefore seems unlikely that accumulations of manganese or cobalt ions under such conditions would cause any significant inhibition of muscle contraction force.

 Mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal roots of Allium schoenoprasum were tested for activities of α-mannosidase, β-glucosidase and arabinosidase. Mannosidase activity was higher by a factor of two in mycorrhizal than in nonmycorrhizal root extracts. The apparent molecular weight of the enzyme was 152 kDa and its KM was 1.25 mM in colonized roots and 1.85 mM in uncolonized roots. α-Mannosidase activity was further characterized by an acid pH optimum and Zn2+ dependency. No significant differences could be found between mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal roots for β-glucosidase and arabinosidase activities. Accepted: 28 August 1995  相似文献

The objective of this study was to examine how root length, diameter, specific root length, and root carbon and nitrogen concentrations were related to root branching patterns. The branching root systems of two temperate tree species, Acer saccharum Marsh. and Fraxinus americana L., and two perennial herbs from horizontal rhizomes, Hydrophyllum canadense L. and Viola pubescens Ait., were quantified by dissecting entire root systems collected from the understory of an A. saccharum-Fagus grandifolia Ehrh. forest. The root systems of each species grew according to a simple branching process, with laterals emerging from the main roots some distance behind the tip. Root systems normally consisted of only 4–6 branches (orders). Root diameter, length, and number of branches declined with increasing order and there were significant differences among species. Specific root length increased with order in all species. Nitrogen concentration increased with order in the trees, but remained constant in the perennial herbs. More than 75% of the cumulative root length of tree seedling root systems was accounted for by short (2–10 mm) lateral roots almost always <0.3 mm in diameter. Simple assumptions suggest that many tree roots normally considered part of the dynamic fine-root pool (e.g., all roots <2.0 mm in diameter) are too large to exhibit rapid rates of production and mortality. The smallest tree roots may be the least expensive to construct but the most expensive to maintain based on an increase in N concentration with order.

Two morphologically distinct hyphal branching responses by the AM fungus, Glomus intraradices, were stimulated by separated components of carrot root exudate. Complex branching up to the sixth order was induced by compounds most soluble in 35 % methanol, whereas the formation of more lateral branches (second order) was stimulated by compounds most soluble in 70 % methanol. This same 70 % alcohol soluble fraction also stimulated a completely different type of branching pattern in another fungus, Gigaspora gigantea. This pattern consisted of a very periodic distribution of dense clusters of hyphal branches that had a very high degree of complexity. In contrast to exudate components, separated cytosolic components of carrot roots did not stimulate any of the observed hyphal branching patterns. Alcohol-soluble fractions actually inhibited hyphal tip growth of G. gigantea and induced the formation of “recovery” branches that were identical to those induced by an inhibitor found in the exudate of Chard (Beta vulgaris ssp. cicla), a non-host plant.  相似文献
