大豆花荚败育期间的植物激素变化

大豆开花结荚期,不同发育阶段的幼蕾与花荚的脱落率不同,其中以花后5d内的幼荚脱落最严重。与败育花荚相比,正常花荚中的干物质积累量均较高。细胞分裂素(DHZRs,ZRs,iPA)含量也较高,花后3～5d的幼荚中表现更明显。脱落酸(ABA)则是以败育幼蕾及花后3～5d的幼荚中含量较高。不同发育阶段的大豆生殖器官中,正常开放花中的玉米赤霉烯酮(ZEN)含量最高。     

荔枝胚珠中多胺含量变化与胚胎发育的关系

荔枝胚胎发育与胚珠中３种多胺（ＰＡｓ）含量及其比例变化关系密切。试验结果表明：正常发育的胚珠中腐胺（Ｐｕｔ）、亚精胺（Ｓｐｄ）和精胺（Ｓｐｍ）的含量在胚胎发育的各个阶段均高于败育胚珠,并在花后７ｄ即达到最高值,其中Ｐｕｔ的含量最高,随后都呈下降趋势。但正常胚珠中Ｓｐｍ含量在花后２２至３１ｄ（球形胚至心形胚发育阶段）均有所回升,而败育胚珠无此现象。败育胚珠中的Ｓｐｄ和Ｓｐｍ在胚胎败育期的下降速度显著     

植物激素在大豆生殖器官脱落过程中的变化(英)

研究了大田生长条件下,大豆品种──早12花及幼荚脱落过程中植物激素变化。结果表明,自盛花期始,位于大豆第8～12节位的花序,其上、中、下三个部分花荚的脱落率逐渐升高,至最后一次取样时,三部分花荚的脱落率分别为77．4％、54．7％和18．3％,说明同一花序的基部花荚不易脱落。由内源细胞分裂素（iPA,ZRs,DHZRs）的分析发现,基部幼荚在生长前期,其内源iPA、ZRs、DHZRs均出现一个含量高峰,总CTK含量明显高于中、下部,而在后期脱落酸含量则明显较低;后期基部幼荚的生长速率及干物质积累量均高于中、上部。可见,植物激素参与调控了大豆生殖器官的脱落过程。

Loss of flower bud vigour in the Mediterranean shrub,Cistus albidus L. at advanced developmental stages

To better understand aging in perennials, age‐related changes in the physiology of leaves and flower buds of the Mediterranean shrub, Cistus albidus L. were evaluated. Two groups of different ages (5 and 10 years old), both at advanced developmental stages but of similar size, were compared. Total plant biomass, biomass produced per apical meristem and levels of cytokinins, abscisic acid and jasmonic acid in leaves and flower buds, as well as flower production, were measured. No differences in plant size, vegetative growth rates and levels of phytohormones in leaves were observed between 5‐ and 10‐year‐old plants. However, they showed significant differences in flower bud development; the older plants having reduced vigour, with 29.6% of flowers reaching anthesis compared to 52.5% in the younger plants. Furthermore, endogenous concentrations of zeatin and abscisic acid in flower buds at stage I (start of flower organ formation) were 61% and 41%, respectively, smaller in 10‐ than in 5‐year‐old plants. At stage II (with all flower organs formed), zeatin and abscisic acid concentrations decreased by ca. 90% and 80%, respectively, but differences between age groups were still evident (60% and 29% for zeatin and abscisic acid, respectively). Jasmonic acid levels in flower buds decreased by 80% from stage I to II, but did not differ between age groups. Despite reductions in flower bud vigour, total number of flowers per individual was not significantly different between age groups, so that an age‐related loss in reproductive vigour at the organ level did not lead to a decrease in flower production at the whole plant level.     

The Effect of Temperature on the Production and Abscission of Flowers and Pods in Snap Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris L.)

The effect of temperature on production and abscission of flowerbuds, flowers and pods was studied in a determinate snap-beancultivar (cv. Tenderette). Under moderate temperature (e.g.27/17 °C) the onset of pod development was associated withcessation of flower bud production and with enhanced abscissionof flower buds. Raising night temperature from 17 °C to27 °C strongly reduced pod production, mature pod size andseeds per pod, while an increase in day temperature from 22°C to 32 °C had smaller and less consistent effects.Pod production under high night temperature was not constrainedby flower production since 27 °C at night promoted branchingand flower bud appearance. Under 32/27 °C day/night temperaturethe large reduction in pod set was due to enhanced abscissionof flower buds, flowers and young pods (< 3 cm). Flowershad the highest relative abscission followed by young pods andflower buds. Therefore, the onset of anthesis and of pod developmentwere the plant stages most sensitive to night temperature. Podslarger than 3 cm did not abscise but usually aborted and shrivelledunder high night temperature. The effects of 32/27 °C werenot due to transient water stresses and were observed even undercontinuous irrigation and mist-spraying.

Studies on the abscission of flowers and fruits of cotton (Gossypium barbadense L.)

Effects of exogenous application of auxin, GA3, abscisic acid, ethrel, methionine and α-alanine to the cut ends of the pedicels of flower buds, flowers and fruits on their abscission behaviour were studied. Fruit pedicels required more time for abscission compared with flower and flower bud pedicels. NAA inhibited abscission of all types of pedicels and the inhibition was maximum in matured fruit pedicels and minimum in flower bud pedicels. Flower pedicels were more sensitive towards the abscission promotive effects of GA3, abscisic acid and ±-alanine and the flower bud pedicels towards ethrel and methionine. The duration of Stage-I of abscission was maximum in cut pedicels of fruit and minimum in those of flower buds. Biochemical analyses revealed greater quantities of endogenous amino acids in the epicalyx of flowers with the exception of methionine and aspartic acid which were found to be present in higher quantities in the epicalyx of flower buds. Levels of IAA-like compounds were maximum in the epioalyx of flower buds and minimum in the epicalyx of flowers. Higher levels of abscisic acid were found in the epicalyx of matured fruits and the epicalyx of flower buds showed a minimum amount of abscisic acid-like compound.     

Influence of water deficits on the abscisic Acid and indole-3-acetic Acid contents of cotton flower buds and flowers

A field experiment was conducted during the summer of 1988 to test the hypothesis that water deficit affects the abscisic acid (ABA) and indole acetic acid (IAA) concentrations in cotton (Gossypium hirsutum L.) flower buds in ways that predispose young fruits (bolls) that subsequently develop from them to increased abscission rates. Water deficit had little effect on the ABA content of flower buds but increased the ABA content of flowers as much as 66%. Water deficit decreased the concentrations of free and conjugated IAA in flower buds during the first irrigation cycle but increased them during the second cycle. Flowers contained much less IAA than buds. Water deficit slightly increased the conjugated IAA content of flowers but had no effect on the concentration of free IAA in flowers. Because water deficit slightly increased the ABA content but did not decrease the IAA content of flowers, any carry-over effect of water deficit on young boll shedding might have been caused by changes in ABA but not from changes in IAA.

Growth retardation of woody species by three growth regulators

Flower-bud blasting in Iris occurs in the winter when low light intensities and short days prevail. After introduction of ¹⁴CO₂ to one leaf the transport of assimilates was studied under controlled culture conditions in a control light treatment and in a treatment of 7 days darkness followed by standard light conditions. Little assimilate transport was found in the direction of the bud in dark-treated plants. However, zeatin injection into the flower buds of the plants subjected to the dark treatment clearly promoted assimilate transport ot these buds. Abscisic acid levels, determined by gas chromatography, were found to increase in the buds of dark-treated plants. Zeatin injection into the flower bud resulted in a suppression of the abscisic acid level. The latter treatment also resulted in higher percentage of flowering. Removal of flower parts was found to inhibit peduncle elongation. The peduncle elongation of complete flowers started in a well defined period, and the fresh weight of buds was found to increase mainly in the last part of that period. Assimilate transport under low light intensities in relation to abscisic acid and supposed gibberellin is discussed.     

Role of ABA in stamen and pistil development in the normal and solanifolia mutant of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum)

Summary The role of abscisic acid (ABA) in stamen and pistil development of the normal and solanifolia (sf/sf) mutant of tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.) was analyzed. The solanifolia mutant produces flowers with separate floral organs, unlike the fused organs of normal flowers, and has greater number of carpels and locules per ovary than the normal. Applications of 10^–5 M ABA to normal floral buds produced flowers with separate stamens, but higher concentrations (10^–4 M ABA) resulted in the complete suppression of stamen growth or stamens that were devoid of anthers. ABA at both 10^–4 and 10^–5 M also induced an increase in the number of carpels and locules in normal flowers, but not in mutant ones. Analysis of endogenous ABA by a radioimmunoassay revealed that the pistils of mutant flowers contained a significantly higher level of ABA than those of normal flowers, but there was no difference in the ABA content of the stamens. The non-fusion of the stamens and the high number of carpels and locules in solanifolia mutant flowers may be explained by the high level of ABA in the floral apex during the initiation and development of carpels.     

Factors Affecting Shedding of Flowers in Soybean (Glycine max (L.) Merrill)

Flower shedding in soybean, Glycine max (L.) Merrill, was studiedusing cultivar ‘Clark’, isoline E₁t, which has relativelylong racemes for convenient identification and observation ofindividual flowers. On each raceme studied, pod set was greatestat the proximal (basal) positions, whereas shedding was greatestat the most distal positions. When proximal flowers were removedas they reached anthesis, pod set increased at the more distalpositions. Pod set was increased in some instances by applicationof water directly to the ovaries as a drop in the calyx cup.Peroxidase activity changed in parallel with ovary development,increasing rapidly in growing pods but not in shedding flowers.Increases in flower peroxidase was mainly in ovary walls. Flowerstaken at or near anthesis from positions with high percent podset could be grown in vitro with especially good ovary enlargement,whereas ovaries in flowers taken from positions of low pod setdid not enlarge in culture. Unidentified substances were extracted from young pods which,when incorporated into lanolin and tested in an in situ bioassay,could mimic the effect of proximal flowers in inducing sheddingof distal flowers. Indole-3-acetic acid resembled the extractedmaterials in inducing shedding, but differed by eliciting side-effectsthat extracts did not. The growth substances abscisic acid,gibberellic acid, and benzyladenine did not promote sheddingin the in situ test. The evidence was taken to indicate that soybean flower sheddingis induced in distal flowers by substances from the more proximal,fertilized ovaries, and that this is possibly due to interferencewith some of the intense metabolic changes that follow pollinationand fertilization.
