The flowering of Lemna paucicostata 151 that is normally inducedby nitrogen-free culture was suppressed by the application ofeither of two protease inhibitors, namely, elastatinal and bestatin,to the medium. These protease inhibitors prevented the flower-inductiveprocess(es) rather than the development of flower buds, suppressingof the degradation of some proteins. The amount of free lysinein plants increased during nitrogen-free culture and lysinehad a flower-inducing effect on the plant. However, levels ofendogenous lysine did not increase when elastatinal was presentin the medium. The suppressive effect of elastatinal on flowerinduction was almost completely reversed by simultaneous applicationof lysine to the medium while the suppressive effect of bestatinwas only partially reversed by lysine. These results suggestthat induction of flowering by nitrogen deficiency is due toendogenous free lysine and that elastatinal suppresses the proteolyticprocesses by which free lysine is generated from protein(s)during nitrogen-free culture.

Flowering of Lemna paucicostata 6746, a typical short-day plant,was induced by culture for 96 or 120 h in nitrogen-free mediumunder continuous illumination. To examine the effects of lysine,we homogenized entire plants of L. paucicostata 151 in a solutionof lysine and the supernatant obtained after centrifugationof the homogenate was added to the medium to give various concentrationsof lysine in the medium. Flowering of strain 6746 in nitrogen-freeor nitrogen-deficient culture medium was effectively promotedby the addition of a lysine-containing supernatant to the medium.The suppressive effect of elastatinal, a protease inhibitor,on the induction of flowering was almost completely reversedby the simultaneous application of a lysine-containing supernatantto the medium. During nitrogen-free culture, the level of endogenousfree lysine, expressed on the basis of the amount of total freeamino acids, increased. Lysine-containing supernatants alsoinduced flowering of plants in nitrogen-rich medium under continuousillumination. These findings suggest that endogenous lysineis involved in the induction of flowering in L. paucicostata6746 on nitrogen-free or nitrogen-deficient medium, as it isin the induction of flowering in L. paucicostata 151 (Received July 29, 1996; Accepted November 18, 1996) 相似文献

Flower-inducing activity of lysine was examined in Lemna paucicostata151, a weakly responsive short-day plant, cultured on nitrogen-richmedium under long-day conditions (continuous light). Lemna paucicostata151 was homogenized in a solution of lysine and the homogenatewas centrifuged. The supernatant (lysine-containing extract)was added to nitrogen-rich medium after passage through a membranefilter to give various concentrations of lysine in the medium.Flowering was induced in plants grown for six days on mediumthat contained lysine at concentrations above 0.25 µM.In plants grown on medium that contained 1 µM lysine,a significant flowering response was observed on the fourthday of culture. However, the flower-inducing activity of lysinedisappeared when the lysine-containing extract was added tothe medium and the medium was then autoclaved, suggesting thatthe active principle is unstable to autoclaving. Among derivativesof lysine tested, lysine hydroxamate had the highest flower-inducingactivity and lysyl lysine had almost same activity as that oflysine. When added to the medium without homogenization withplant material, lysine and lysyl lysine had flower-inducingactivity but lysine hydroxamate did not induce flowering.

Lemna paucicostata 6746, a short-day plant, produced flowerbuds even under continuous light when cultured in nitrogen-deficientmodified Hoagland medium with 1% sucrose for 3 days or morefollowed by culture on nitrogen-rich medium (either nitrateor ammonium). Flowering was also induced by culture on mediumcontaining 20100 µM nitrate as the sole nitrogensource for 10 days or more, but not on medium with a low ammoniumconcentration. However, if plants cultured on medium containing520 µM ammonium as the sole nitrogen source for10 days were grown in a nitrogen-rich medium for a further 4days, they produced flower buds. Thus, nitrogen deficiency caninduce day length-independent flowering in Lemna paucicoslata6746, but nitrogen is required for the manifestation of flowering.

Vitamins K1 K3 and K5 induced flowering in Lemna paucicostata151, a short-day plant, cultured in 1/10 strength M medium (1/10M medium) under continuous light, and their activity was greatlyintensified by simultaneous application of benzyladenine. Themost active of these was vitamin K5 L. paucicostata 6746 ismore sensitive to vitamin K5 than strain 151, but the effectof vitamin K5 on strain 6746 was not intensified by benzyladenine.The flower-inducing activity of vitamin K5 was intensified bythe addition of benzoic acid in both strains and by the additionof copper or ferricyanide in Strain 6746, when these chemicalswere added at such low concentrations that they would scarcelyinduce flowering. In strain 6746, vitamin K5 added to 1/10 M had little effecton flowering under a subcritical photoperiod, while it clearlyinduced flowering under continuous light. In this strain, vitaminK5 added to full strength M medium, in which this plant wasmore sensitive to short photoperiods than in 1/10 M medium,did not induce flowering even under continuous light, and wasrather inhibitory under short photoperiods.

Daylength-independent flowering in Lemna paucicostata 6746,a short-day plant, was induced by daily treatment with nitrogendeficiency for 17 hours, which inhibited nitrate reductase activity.The endogenous nitrogen level in plants treated daily with 17-hnitrogen deficiency was much higher than in plants culturedon medium containing 50200 and 1,000µM nitratefor 10 and 14 days, respectively, which were induced to flower.These results suggest that suppression of nitrogen metabolismfor more than a certain number of hours can induce floweringeven in plants with a high nitrogen level.

Lemna paucicostata 151 is a weakly responsive short-day plantwhen grown in non-aseptic ten-fold diluted E medium supplementedwith 1 µM 6-benzyladenine, but it flowered even underlong-day conditions (continuous light) when grown in this mediumfor more than 14 days. On the 14th day of culture, the levelof endogenous nitrogen in the plants decreased to about 60%of that in the plants inoculated at the start of the culture.The flowering obtained under long-day conditions was suppressedby raising the concentration of nitrogen in the medium, whileit was induced more rapidly by lowering the concentration ofnitrogen in the medium. Benzyladenine did not cause floweringby itself, but it was required for the flowering that was inducedby a reduction in the level of nitrogen in the medium. Thus,the flowering observed under long-day conditions is due to nitrogendeficiency in the plants. Two inhibitors of proteases, bestatin and elastatinal, clearlyinhibited the flowering induced by nitrogen deficiency. It appears,therefore, that the induction or activation of some protease(s)is involved in the flowering that is induced by nitrogen deficiency. (Received March 19, 1991; Accepted August 16, 1991) 相似文献

The formation of protease takes place in washed cells ofBacillus megaterium incubated in a nitrogen-free medium. The rate of enzyme synthesis is decreased much less than that of cell proteins as compared with growing cells. The synthesis of protease in a nitrogen-free medium requires the presence of glucose. The omission of glucose results in stopping of the enzyme formation and substantial decrease of the rate of protein synthesis. Protease is not synthesized when the washed cells are incubated in a phosphate, free medium. The incubation of the cells in a nitrogen-free medium results in a decrease of the concentration of amino acids in the pool. In a phosphate-free medium the content of free amino acids increases temporarily and decreases again later. When the culture grown in the medium containing threonine or threonine and isoleucine in addition to NH4 ions is transferred into the medium without amino acids, no protease formation is found during derepression of enzymes synthesizing both amino acids. The cells grown in a medium containing casamino acids begin to form the enzyme after a short lag period when transferred into the medium containing NH4 as a sole nitrogen source or into a nitrogen-free medium. 相似文献

A nitrogen source was needed for the flowering of Lemna gibba L., a long-day plant, and L. perpusilla Torr., a shortday plant. The level of endogenous amino acids analyzed by an Amino Acid Analyzer, rose during the first few inductive cycles, but was reduced during later stages of the flowering process. Serine and threonine levels increased during the light period and decreased during the dark period in L. perpusilla. Exogenous serine and threonine added to the culture medium at 10?6M increased the rate of flowering by more than 35% over the controls. Cysteine inhibited flowering, while other amino acids had little or no promotive effect on flowering. Serine and threonine increased flowering rate in L. perpusilla only when added during a dark period of the inductive cycle. The addition of amino acids during a light period not followed by a dark period had no effect on flowering. 相似文献

The long-day flowering of Lemna perpusilla 6746 on an SH inhibitor-containingmedium was inhibited by the application of ammonium ion to themedium. Ammonium ion not only suppressed long-day flowering,but relieved the inhibition of vegetative growth caused by theinhibitors. Nitrite, casamino acids, glutamine and asparaginehad a similar effect, suggesting that the inhibition of long-dayflowering by ammonium ion is not a direct effect of the ion.Most amino acids, with the exception of glutamate and aspartate,also prevented long-day flowering, but their effects on vegetativegrowth varied. No qualitative differences in amino acid compositionwere observed among plants cultured on media containing nitrate,nitrite or NH44NO3as the sole nitrogen source. However, theamounts of free and total amino acids werehigher in plants fedwith nitrite or NH4NO3 than in those fed with nitrate. Thissuggests that the inhibition of long-day flowering by ammoniumand nitrite can be ascribed to increased nitrogen metabolism. Though decreased activity by SH inhibitors of nitrate reductase(SH enzyme) is assumed to result in long-day flowering by loweringthe nitrogen metabolism, lowering the nitrogen level in M mediumdid not bring about floral initiation in the absence of SH inhibitors.

1. The effects of insulin, glucagon and dexamethasone on the amino acid consumption by primary cultures of rat hepatocytes were studied in a medium containing all essential amino acids or in those deficient in some essential or nonessential amino acids. 2. The cells which were cultured in a medium containing all the essential amino acids responded to insulin by enhancing the consumption of amino acids and augmenting protein synthesis. 3. However, the cells did not respond to insulin significantly when they were cultured in a medium deficient in lysine or some other essential amino acids. 4. The results suggest that some essential amino acid deficiency impairs the transmission of the signal of insulin to the site of the metabolic changes induced by the hormone. 相似文献

Flowering in the short-day plant Lemna paucicostata 6746 canbe induced under continuous light by the addition of ferricyanie,ferrocyanide or KCN to M-sucrose medium. Each substance is nearly10 times more effective when the flasks are covered by glassbeakers than when cotton plugs are used. By contrast, when floweringis induced under continuous light by copper or by short-daytreatment, neither flowering nor growth are affected by whetherglass beakers or cotton plugs are used. Ferricyanide, ferrocyanideand KCN are also able to induce long-day flowering when theplants are grown on Msucrose medium in small beakers that areplaced in a covered storage dish that also contains a solutionof one of these compounds. Addition of a KOH trap to the storagedish completely blocks the flowering induced by these compounds.If [14C]ferrocyanide is added to the storage dish both the M-sucrosemedium and the plants contain significant amounts of radioactivity,the amount of radioactivity being proportional to the floweringresponse. These results indicate that ferricyanide, ferrocyanideand KCN break down to release HCN and that it is the HCN whichis responsible for inducing flowering in L. paucicostata 6746under continuous light.

Long-day flowering of Pharbitis nil, dwarf strain Kidachi, at20?C was greatly influenced by the size of the culture vesseland the number of plants per vessel. The smaller the vessel,the greater the flowering response. The volume of nutrient solutionper plant was not decisive for long-day flowering. For instance,plants cultured singly in 200-ml beakers flowered, but thosecultured in 5,000-ml vessels (33?26?11.5 cm, 48 plants per vessel)did not, even though there was only about 100 ml of nutrientsolution per plant. Long-day flowering was always accompaniedby the suppression of root elongation, but not by a decreasein the dry weight of roots or shoots, or in the rate at whichthe leaf primordia appeared (plastochrone). Aeration of thenutrient solution or culture in vermiculite promoted root elongationeven in small vessels, thereby inhibiting long-day flowering.Thus the suppression of root elongation seems to be necessaryfor long-day flowering. Removal of the roots or cotyledons;however, suppressed long-day flowering even when root elongationwas inhibited by culture in small vessels. When plants werecultured at 24?C, suppression of root elongation (culture ina small vessel) did not induce long-day flowering; but, short-daytreatment induced flowering without suppressing root elongation.

Phloem exudate from cotyledons of photoperiodically inducedPharbitis plants induced flowering in apices excised from non-inducedseedlings and cultured in vitro. The exudate also stimulatedflowering in apices excised from photo-induced seedlings andcultured under long-day conditions. The application of benzoicacid had similar effects. Both the exudate from non-inducedplants and gallic acid suppressed flowering in apices from photo-inducedseedlings. It appears that the phloem exudate contains flower-inducingor flower-suppressing substance(s), depending on the plant materialsfrom which it was collected.

Temperature and plant age influenced the nitrogenase activityof Lotus and Stylosanthes nodules. Time course studies usingnodulated plants in closed vials showed a decline in activityafter 48 h; regassing with 10% (v/v) acetylene in air partiallyrestored the activity. Transfer of plants from 15, 20, 25, and30 ?C to 40 ?C immediately stopped activity; this was completelyrestored within 1 h after return to original temperatures. Detached nodules cultured on nitrogen-free agar medium exhibiteda sucrose concentration (28%, w/v)-dependent nitrogenaseactivity at each temperature. With 6% sucrose prolonged activity,up to 96 h, was obtained. Decline in nitrogenase activity indetached nodules was due partly to exposure to air during excisionand transfer to the medium. 相似文献

Four inhibitors of proteases, namely, bestatin, diisopropylfluorophosphate, elastatinal and p-toluenesulfonyl-L-lysinechloromethyl ketone hydrochloride, were examined for their effectson flowering of a short-day plant Lemna paucicostata 6746 anda long-day plant Lemna gibba G3. Each of the inhibitors greatlyinhibited the flowering of Lemna paucicostata 6746 that is normallyinduced by nitrogen deficiency. Bestatin or elastatinal givenonly during the first half of the culture period inhibited theflowering more clearly than when each was given during the latterhalf, suggesting that they inhibited the inductive process(es)involved in flowering rather than development of flower buds.Bestatin or elastatinal greatly inhibited the flowering of Lemnapaucicostata 6746 induced by photoperiodic stimulus, ferricyanideand continuous far-red light. Simultaneous application of thesetwo inhibitors was more effective in the inhibition of photoperiodicallyinduced and ferricyanide-induced flowering than was each inhibitoralone. They also completely inhibited the photoperiodic floweringof Lemna gibba G3. These results suggest that the inductionor activation of some proteases, probably followed by the degradationof some protein(s), is necessary for the induction of floweringin both these plants.

Flowering of Lemna paucicostata 441 (P441), a sensitive short-dayplant (SDP), was promoted under a near critical photoperiodby the crude water extract of the same plant added to the medium.The extract induced flowering in L. paucicostata 151 (P151),a weakly responsive SDP, under continuous light. The activityfor P151 was greatly promoted by simultaneous application ofbenzyladenine, and the extract of only 0.3 mg fr wt plant addedto 10 ml of assay medium with 1 µM benzyladenine was active.Active substance(s) was similarly obtained from both flower-inducedand non-induced plants, and more or less from all species andstrains of Lemna tested, including P151. However, the extractof short-day strains was more active than that of L. gibba G3(G3), a long-day strain. G3 responded only slightly to the extractof either P441 or G3, whereas P151 responded far more stronglyto the extract of P441 than to that of G3.

The effects of lysine analogs and aspartate-derived amino acidson the growth of wheat cell suspension culture were studied.S-(2-Aminoethyl)-L-cysteine (AEC), -hydroxylysine (DHL) andtrans-lysene caused complete growth inhibition at 1.0 mM. Thegrowth inhibition of lysine analogs were, in the order of decreasingeffectiveness; AECDHL, trans-lysene>oxalysine, homolysineand lysyne. cis-Lysene and methyllysine were not inhibitoryeven at concentrations of 10 mM. Lysine effectively relievedgrowth inhibition induced by the lysine analogs. Lysine plusthreonine showed concerted inhibition, which was relieved bythe addition of methionine. Activity of aspartate kinase extracted from wheat cell suspensionculture was strongly inhibited by L-lysine; 0.75 to 1 mM oflysine was required for half-maximal inhibition. Threonine andmethionine, individually or in combination with lysine, showedno inhibitory effect on the enzyme activity. S-Adenosylmethionine,when added with lysine in equimolar concentrations, enhancedthe feedback inhibition by lysine, lowering the concentrationof lysine for half-maximal inhibition to 0.13 mM. The aspartatekinase isolated from the cells cultured in the presence of 5mM lysine did not differ in regulatory properties from the enzymefrom the cells cultured without lysine. AEC at 5 mM inhibitedthe enzyme activity by 50%. Other lysine analogs were not inhibitoryto the enzyme activity even at 10 mM. Growth inhibition of wheat suspension culture by aspartate-derivedamino acids and lysine analogs were discussed in relation totheir inhibitory effects on aspartate kinase activity.

Lemna paucicostata 6746, a short-day plant, produced flowerbuds even under continuous light when cultured for 3 days inferricyanide containing ammonium-free medium followed by cultureon nitrogen-rich medium (either nitrate or ammonium). Dailytreatment with ferricyanide in the absence of ammonium for morethan 8 hours, which completely inhibited nitrate reductase activitywithin 6 hours after the addition to the medium, induced daylength-independentflowering even when the ammonium-rich medium was given duringthe remaining hours. The presence of ammonium for 1 hour atthe middle of the 14-h ferricyanide treatment almost completelysuppressed floral induction. (Received March 6, 1986; Accepted June 3, 1986) 相似文献

L-Pipecolic acid was found to be effective in inducing floweringof Lemna paucicostata 151, 381, 441 and 6746, and of Lemna gibbaG3. When the plants were grown on half-strength Hutner's medium,L-pipecolic acid caused profuse flowering of L. paucicostata151 maintained under 9 and 10 h of light daily. In L. paucicostata441 and 6746, L-pipecolic acid had a strong flower-promotingeffect under a near critical photoperiod. In L. paucicostata381, by contrast, L-pipecolic acid had only a very small effecton flowering. In L. gibba G3 substantial promotion of floweringwas observed under continuous light. When one-twentieth-strengthHutner's medium was used as the basic medium, L-pipecolic acidstimulated flowering in all strains of Lemna examined, evenunder continuous light. When L. paucicostata 151 was grown on one-tenth-strength M mediumor one-twentieth-strength Hutner's medium, the flower-inducingactivity of L-pipecolic acid was greatly enhanced by cytokininunder continuous light. However, when this strain was grownwith 9 h of illumination daily, this synergistic effect of cytokininwas only slight. A short-term (even 1-h) treatment with L-pipecolicacid resulted in flowering, suggesting that L-pipecolic acidis involved in the induction of flowering, rather than its evocation.D-Pipecolic acid also had flower-inducing activity, but itsactivity was 50 times lower than that of the L-isomer.
