A sequential indole-3-acetic acid (IAA)-zeatin treatment was applied to Pisum sativum hypocotyl explants, resulting in shoot formation from 50% of the explants. Shoots were easily rooted and transplantable plants could be obtained in 3 months. The method has been applicable to the 5 cultivars tested. Histological examination of explants suggests the shoots to be of de novo origin, which would make the system suitable for transformation experiments. 相似文献

The epicotyl of 5-day-old derooted cuttings of pea ( Pisum sativum L. cv. Alaska) with and without cotyledons exuded sucrose and glucose in the presence of EDTA. The amount of sugars exuded was greatly affected by the position at which the epicotyl was cut. The largest amount of sugars was exuded when the epicotyl was cut 2 mm below the hook, leaving the growing subhook. Gibberellic acid (GA) substantially increased the amount of sugars exuded from the epicotyl in the presence of cotyledons but only slightly in their absence. GA stimulated sugar exudation from the cotyledonary node as well as from the epicotyl. In cuttings with cotyledons, GA enhanced invertase activity in the apoplast, and in the intraceUular soluble and bound fractions in the growing subhook. In decotylized cuttings, GA enhanced only soluble invertase activity. GA did not affect invertase activity in the epicotyl below the subhook. These results suggest that GA stimulates sugar accumulation in the growing subhook by stimulating not only phloem loading of sucrose in the cotyledons but also unloading in the subhook. 相似文献

In addition to the GBSSI isoform of starch synthase described previously, the pea plant contains a second, granule-bound isoform, GBSSIb. GBSSI is abundant in pea embryos and Rhizobium root nodules, is present at low levels in pods and is absent from leaves. Mutations at the lam locus eliminate GBSSI from all of these organs. GBSSIb is present in pods, leaves and nodules and is unaffected by mutations at the lam locus. GBSSI and GBSSIb are very similar in molecular mass, primary sequence, activity and antigenic properties. GBSSIb, like GBSSI, can synthesize amylose in the presence of malto-oligosaccharides in isolated starch granules. However, its role in vivo is unclear. The lam mutation eliminates amylose from the starch of embryos but does not affect the relatively small amounts of amylose-like material in the starch of pods, leaves and nodules. The significance of these results for understanding of the regulation of amylose synthesis is discussed. 相似文献

Purification and characterization of a thiol-protease induced during senescence of unpollinated ovaries of Pisum sativum 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
A senescence-specific protease has been purified from senescent unpollinated ovaries of Pisum sativum L. cv. Alaska by acidic extraction. (NH4 )2 SO4 fractionation, ion exchange chromatography on CM-Sephadex, and affinity chromatography on ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (Rubisco)-Sepharose. Characterization of the purified protease indicated that it is a thiol-endoprotease (EC 3. 4. 22 class) active over a wide pH range. Purified antibodies against this protease inhibit the degradation of Rubisco in autodigested extracts of senescent ovaries, suggesting that Rubisco might be a substrate for the protease in senescent pea ovaries. The relative levels of the protease were determined by an enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) along the processes of ovary senescence and gibberellic acid (GA)-induced fruit development, indicating its induction at the beginning of senescence and the suppression of its synthesis by GA treatment. 相似文献

Pea ( Pisum sativum L. cv. Fenomen) and sugar beet ( Beta vulgaris L. cv. Monohill) were cultivated in nutrient media without or with 10 μM CdCl2 . Leaves of the same size and stage of development, detached or still attached to the intact plants, were submerged into redistilled water containing 1 to 250 μM CdCl2 . The uptake experiments were run for 1 to 8 h at pH 3.6 and 5.1. Cuticular transpiration rate, density of leaf and density of stomata were also measured. Percentage of open stomata was studied at different pH.
Foliar uptake of Cd into the leaf is evident since Cd is transported from the exposed part of the pea leaves, through the petioles and into the stipules, and since the Cd concentration of the leaves increases with time and external Cd concentration. The foliar uptake depends on the permeability of the cuticular membrane, which is increased by a high intrinsic Cd level, which in turn enhances the foliar uptake of Cd in sugar beet. Higher cuticular permeability in pea than in sugar beet is shown by a 2.5 times higher cuticular transpiration rate and a 4 times lower density of leaf for pea, which causes a 7 times higher foliar uptake in pea than in sugar beet. Low pH decreases the net uptake of Cd, probably by an exchange reaction in the cutin and pectin of the cuticular membrane. Stomata are not directly involved in the Cd uptake, and the differences in the sum total of stomatal aperture area per unit leaf area is not related to differences in foliar uptake of Cd. Percentage of open stomata, calculated as average of both sides of the leaves, was not affected by changes in pH: but especially at high pH. proportionally more stomata were open on the adaxial than on the abaxial side. 相似文献

Abstract. In peas ( Pisum sativum L.) homozygous for sym 5, nodulation has an unusual temperature dependence. These sym 5 mutants nodulate poorly at a root temperature of 20°C but nodulate better at 12°C. By lowering the root temperature of the sym 5 mutants from a lightroom temperature of 20/15°C to a constant 12°C, 8d after planting, the number of nodules can be further increased. A cool period (12°C) as short as 6h, early in the infection process, is sufficient to significantly increase nodulation of plants otherwise growing at 20/15°C. This temperature-sensitivity of nodulation is not due to a temperature induced change of a sym 5-related, 66-kD peptide but may involve accumulation of a gas in the rhizosphere. 相似文献

A mutant line of Pisum fulvum was identified that lacked seed lipoxygenase-2 (LOX-2). The mutant phenotype was introgressed into a standard Pisum sativum cv. Birte to provide near-isogenic lines with or without seed LOX-2. Genetic analyses showed the mutation to behave as a single, recessive Mendelian gene. Northern and dot-blot analyses showed a large reduction in LOX-2 mRNA from developing seeds of the LOX-2-null mutant. A restriction fragment length polymorphism associated with the 5 end of the LOX-2 gene(s) co-segregated with the null phenotype, indicating that the reduction of LOX-2 mRNA was neither a consequence of deletion of the LOX genes nor a consequence of the action of a genetically distant regulatory gene. Analysis of the 5-flanking sequences of LOX-2 genes from Birte and the near-isogenic LOX-2-null mutant revealed a number of insertions, deletions and substitutions within the promoter from the LOX-2-null mutant that could be responsible for the null phenotype. Incubation of crude seed LOX preparations from Birte and the LOX-2-null mutant showed that the latter generated relatively less 13-hydroperoxides and also produced relatively more hydroxy- and ketoacid compounds that have implications for the fresh-frozen pea industry. 相似文献

Chloroplast ultrastructure changes in Pisum sativum associated with supplementary ultraviolet (UV-B) radiation 总被引:3,自引:2,他引:1
Pea plants (Pisum sativum L. cv. Greenfeast) were grown and exposed to supplementary UV-B radiation from day 17 after planting under growth cabinet conditions. The effects of this exposure on the ultrastructure of chloroplasts and the total soluble sugar and starch concentrations were estimated. Supplementary UV-B radiation was shown to damage the structure of chloroplasts, as manifested by dilation of thylakoid membranes, a progressive disruption of the thylakoid structure and disintegration of the double membrane envelope surrounding the chloroplast, accompanied by the accumulation of large starch grains. Diurnal changes observed in starch concentration suggest that the higher concentration of starch in supplementary UV-B-treated leaves is due to its immobilization, rather than to any increase in starch synthesis: soluble sugars accumulated and remained at a higher level and then later declined. 相似文献

Glutathione peroxidases (GPOXs) and glutathione transferases, also termed glutathione S-transferases (GST, EC 2.5.1.18), with activities toward a range of xenobiotic substrates including herbicides, have been characterized in etiolated pea (Pisum sativum L. cv. Feltham's First) seedlings. Crude extracts showed high activity toward a range of GST substrates including 1-chloro-2,4-dinitrobenzene (GSTC activity) and the herbicide fluorodifen (GSTF) but low activities toward chloroacetanilides and atrazine. Treatment of the pea seedlings with the herbicide safener dichlormid selectively increased the activity of GSTC and the GST which detoxified atrazine. This induction was restricted to the roots and was not observed with any of the other GST or GPOX activities. In contrast, treatment with CuCl2 increased GPOX activity in the root but had no effect on any GST activity, while treatment of epicotyls with elicitors of the phytoalexin response increased GST activity toward ethacrynic acid, but had no effect on other GST or GPOX activities. The major enzymes with GSTC, GSTF and GPOX activities were purified from pea epicotyls 3609-fold, 1431-fold and 1554-fold, respectively. During purification by hydrophobic interaction chromatography and affinity chromatography using S-hexyl-glutathione as ligand all three activities co-eluted but could be partially resolved by anion exchange chromatography and gel filtration chromatography. Both GSTC and GPOX had a molecular mass of 48 kDa and their activities were associated with a similar 27.5-kDa subunit but distinct 29-kDa subunits. GSTF could be resolved into two isoenzymes with molecular masses of 49.5 and 54 kDa. GSTF activity was associated with a unique 30-kDa subunit in addition to 27.5- and 29-kDa peptides, suggesting that the two isoenzymes were composed of differing subunits. These results demonstrate that peas contain multiple GST isoenzymes some of which have GPOX activity and that the various activities are differentially responsive to biotic and abiotic stress. 相似文献

In the present study, root hydrotropism in an agravitropic mutant of Pisum sativum L. grown in vermiculite with a steep water potential gradient was examined. When wet and dry vermiculite were placed side by side, water diffused from the wet (-0.04 MPa) to the dry (-1.2 MPa) and a steep water potential gradient became apparent in the dry vermiculite close to the boundary between the two. The extent and location of the gradient remained stable between the fourth and sixth day after filling a box with vermiculite, and the steepest gradient (approx. 0.02 MPa mm-1) was found in the initially dry vermiculite between 60 and 80 mm from the boundary. When seedlings with 25-35 mm long roots were planted in the initially dry vermiculite near where the gradient had been established, each of the main roots elongated toward the wet vermiculite, i.e. toward the high water potential. Control roots elongated without curvature in both the wet and the dry vermiculite, in which no water potential gradient was detectable. These results show that pea roots respond to the water potential gradient around them and elongate towards the higher water potential. Therefore, positive hydrotropism occurs in vermiculite just as it does in air. Hydrotropism in soil may be significant when a steep water potential gradient is apparent, such as when drip irrigation is applied. 相似文献

The effects of reduced osmotic potential on photosynthesis and respiration were studied in mesophyll protoplasts of pea (Pisum sativum). Osmotic stress was induced by increasing the sorbitol concentration in the medium from 0·4 kmol m−3 (-1·3 MPa) to 1·0 kmol m−3 (-3·1 MPa). Protoplasts lost up to 35% of the maximum capacity of photo-synthetic carbon assimilation (but not PS II mediated activity) soon after exposure to 1·0 kmol m−3 sorbitol. The response of protoplast respiration to osmotic stress was intriguing. Respiration was stimulated if stress was induced at 25°C, but was inhibited when protoplasts were subjected to osmotic stress at 0°C. Photosynthesis was also much more sensitive to osmotic stress at 0°C than at 25°C. The inhibitory effects of osmotic stress on photosynthesis as well as respiration were amplified by not only chilling but also photoinhibitory light. The photosynthetic or respiratory activities of protoplasts recovered remarkably when they were transferred from hyperosmotic (1·0 kmol m−3 sorbitol) back to iso-osmotic medium (0·4 kmol m−3 sorbitol), demonstrating the reversibility of osmotic-stress-induced changes in protoplasts. Respiration was more resistant to osmotic stress and was quicker to recover than photosynthesis. We suggest that the experimental system of protoplasts can be useful in studying the effects of osmotic stress on plant tissues. 相似文献

Quantitative and qualitative characteristics of pigment composition and gas exchange were studied in chlorophyll mutants of pea, Pisum sativum L.: chlorotica 2004 and 2014. The mutant 2004 had light-green color, whereas the mutant 2014 has yellow-green leaves and stems; they contained about 80 and 50% of chlorophyll, respectively, compared to the initial line. cv. Torsdag. Leaves of the mutant 2004 had significantly lower carotene content and accumulated more lutein and violaxanthin. In the mutant 2014, the contents of chlorophyll and all carotenoids were reduced almost proportionally. The quantum efficiency of photosynthesis was by 29–30% lower in the mutants, and it was 1.5–2 times higher in F1 hybrids, as compared to control plants. Our data allow us to conclude that the impairment of photosynthesis in the mutant 2014 is caused by the changed mesostructure of leaves, whereas in the mutant 2004, it may be caused by an impairment of photosystem reaction centers. 相似文献

BACKGROUND AND AIMS: To date, there are no crop mutants described in the literature that display both Cd accumulation and tolerance. In the present study a unique pea (Pisum sativum) mutant SGECd(t) with increased Cd tolerance and accumulation was isolated and characterized. METHODS: Ethylmethane sulfonate mutagenesis of the pea line SGE was used to obtain the mutant. Screening for Cd-tolerant seedlings in the M2 generation was performed using hydroponics in the presence of 6 microm CdCl2. Hybridological analysis was used to identify the inheritance of the mutant phenotype. Several physiological and biochemical characteristics of SGECd(t) were studied in hydroponic experiments in the presence of 3 microm CdCl2, and elemental analysis was conducted. KEY RESULTS: The mutant SGECd(t) was characterized as having a monogenic inheritance and a recessive phenotype. It showed increased Cd concentrations in roots and shoots but no obvious morphological defects, demonstrating its capability to cope well with increased Cd levels in its tissues. The enhanced Cd accumulation in the mutant was accompanied by maintenance of homeostasis of shoot Ca, Mg, Zn and Mn contents, and root Ca and Mg contents. Through the application of La(+3) and the exclusion of Ca from the nutrient solution, maintenance of nutrient homeostasis in Cd-stressed SGECd(t) was shown to contribute to the increased Cd tolerance. Control plants of the mutant (i.e. no Cd treatment) had elevated concentrations of glutathione (GSH) in the roots. Through measurements of chitinase and guaiacol-dependent peroxidase activities, as well as proline and non-protein thiol (NPT) levels, it was shown that there were lower levels of Cd stress both in roots and shoots of SGECd(t). Accumulation of phytochelatins [(PCcalculated) = (NPT)-(GSH)] could be excluded as a cause of the increased Cd tolerance in the mutant. CONCLUSIONS: The SGECd(t) mutant represents a novel and unique model to study adaptation of plants to toxic heavy metal concentrations. 相似文献

Effects of enhanced UV-B radiation on pea (Pisum sativum L.) grown under field conditions in the UK 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1

A new modulated lamp system is described. This system has successfully provided an ultraviolet-B (UV-B) supplement in proportion to ambient UV-B. The modulated system was used to simulate the UV-B environment resulting from an annual mean reduction of 15% in the stratospheric ozone under UK field conditions, but taking account of seasonal variation in depletion. The effects of this enhanced level of UV-B on the growth, physiology and yield of four cultivars of pea were assessed. Enhanced UV-B resulted in small reductions in the number of stems and total stem length per plant (respectively 4.7 and 8.7%). There were also significant decreases in the dry weight of peas (10.1%), pods (10.3%) and stems (7.8%) per plant. UV-B treatment had no effect on the number of peas per pod or average pea weight, but did significantly reduce (12.1%) the number of pods per plant. This decrease in pod number was partly due to enhanced abscission of pods during the final month of plant growth. UV-B treatment had no significant effect on chlorophyll fluorescence characteristics or CO2assimilation rate per unit leaf area. These results are consistent with previous controlled environment experiments, and suggest that reduction in yield may be due to direct effects of UV-B on plant growth rather than a decrease in photosynthetic capacity per unit leaf area. 相似文献

When N 6 [8–14 C] furfuryladenine was applied to the intact root system of Pisum sativum L. cv. Meteor seedlings it was almost completely metabolised to other compounds within 24 h. Of the total activity recovered from the plants 94.5% was retained in the root system itself. 14 C was recovered in a number of ethanol-soluble compounds and in ribonucleic acid, deoxyribonucleic acid and protein fractions of roots, stems, leaves and axillary buds. In rapidly growing axillary buds released from apical dominance by removal of the shoot apex the combined nucleic acid fractions accounted for 63.3% of the total 14 C recovered from these organs. Xylem exudate collected from decapitated plants 0 to 12 h after supplying N 5 [8–14 C]furfuryladenine to the roots consistently contained a single major 14 C-labelled compound which, in three different solvent systems, had the same Rf values as a major endogenous cytokinin isolated from the xylem of unlabelled plants. The content of N 6 [8–14 C] furfuryladenine itself in the xylem exudate was always low and in some experiments it could not be detected.
It is suggested that part of the label from N6 [8- 14 CJfurfuryladenine taken up by the intact root system may have become incorporated in an endogenous cylokinin before export to the shoot. 相似文献

Abstract. In experiments with Pisum sativum cv. Sleaford Orbiter in a controlled environment, the effect of fruit number and position, photon flux density and developmental stage on fruit growth was studied. During early development (up to 22 d from anthesis) growth of the first fruit was unaffected by the presence of one or two additional fruits irrespective of their position. When grown to maturity in competition with fruits at the same node a small decrease in weight of this fruit was observed. Where plants retained a full complement (20-30) of fruits the growth of the first fruit was markedly decreased at all stages of development (6-40 d). In all instances where competition was observed, the pericarp was more affected than the seeds. This was particularly so when photon flux was decreased 18-22 d from anthesis compared with a decrease at an earlier stage. Partition of dry matter between fruits showed a progressively increasing allocation to the later-formed fruits with time for all treatments. The actual proportions allocated to different fruits were not changed by the number of competing fruits. Decreasing photon flux by more than two-thirds decreased fruit growth rates but had little effect on dry matter partitioning in most cases, although where all fruits were retained, there was a tendency for fruits at the lower reproductive nodes to be less affected. These findings are discussed in relation to known sources of assimilate for fruits, assimilate transport and sink demand. It is suggested that partition of dry matter between fruits can be estimated on the basis of fruit size and the developmental trend in relative growth rate of fruits grown in the absence of competition for assimilate from other fruits. 相似文献
