Summary Valine dehydrogenase (VDH) is believed to be absent in Streptomyces avermitilis. In the present study, a VDH (M r, 72 000) was detected by activity measurement and activity staining on a native-PAGE gel. The enzyme activity was induced by L-valine and repressed by ammonia. VDH activity was found to be significantly lower than L-valine transaminase activity. The results suggest that one active VDH does exist in S. avermitilis, and plays a role in valine catabolism and avermectin biosynthesis.  相似文献

Na+ accumulation was investigated in the roots of 11-d-old cowpea [Vigna unguiculata (L.) Walp.] plants. The relative contribution of different membrane transporters on Na+ uptake was estimated by applying Ca2+, K+, NH4 +, and pharmacological inhibitors. Na+ accumulation into the root symplast was decreased by half in the presence of 1 mM Ca2+ and it was almost abolished by 100 mM K+. The inhibitory effect of external NH4+ on Na+ accumulation was more pronounced in the roots of NH4 +-free growing plants. Na+ accumulation was reduced about 73 % by 0.1 mM flufenamate and it was almost blocked by 2 mM quinine. In addition, 20 mM tetraethylammonium and 1.0 mM Cs+ decreased Na+ accumulation by 28 and 30 %, respectively. These results evidenced that low-affinity Na+ uptake by cowpea roots depends on Ca2+-sensitive and Ca2+-insensitive pathways. The Ca2+-sensitive pathway is probably mediated by nonselective cation channels and the Ca2+-insensitive one may involve K+ channels and to a lesser extent NH4 +-sensitive K+ transporters.  相似文献

The monovalent cations NH4+, K+, and Rb+ activate pig liver phosphofructokinase by increasing the maximal velocity. In the presence of these cations the enzyme retains sigmoid kinetics with respect to fructose-6-phosphate. However, these cations bring about a decrease in the [S]0.5 for fructose-6-phosphate to an extent directly proportional to their ionic volumes. The apparent dissociation constants of NH4+, K+, and Rb+ for the enzyme at 0.5 mM ATP and 4 mM Fru6P are 0.2 mM, 8 mM, and 15 mM, respectively. The maximal velocity of the enzyme in the presence of saturating concentrations of Rb+ is about 70% of that seen with NH4+ or K+. The monovalent cations Li+, Na+, and Cs+ inhibit the enzyme at high concentrations (> 50 mM) by decreasing the maximal velocity. Although the efficiency of inhibition by these cations qualitatively increases with decreasing size, there is no obvious quantitative relationship between efficiency of inhibition and any parameter of ionic size.  相似文献

Pisum arvense plants were subjected to 5 days of nitrogen deprivation. Then, in the conditions that increased or decreased the root glutamine and asparagine pools, the uptake rates of 0.5 mM NH4 + and 0.5 mM K+ were examined. The plants supplied with 1 mM glutamine or asparagine took up ammonium and potassium at rates lower than those for the control plants. The uptake rates of NH4 + and K+ were not affected by 1 mM glutamate. When the plants were pre-treated with 100 μM methionine sulphoximine, an inhibitor of glutamine synthesis, the efflux of NH4 + from roots to ambient solution was enhanced. On the other hand, exposure of plants to methionine sulphoximine led to an increase in potassium uptake rate. The addition of asparagine, glutamine or glutamate into the incubation medium caused a decline in the rate of NH4 + uptake by plasma membrane vesicles isolated from roots of Pisum arvense, whereas on addition of methionine sulphoximine increased ammonium uptake. The results indicate that both NH4 + and K+ uptake appear to be similarly affected by glutamine and asparagine status in root cells.

A mathematical computer-aided model CELLOP was constructed in which the desirability functions in a three-dimensional experimental design can be used to find the optimal growing conditions for plant cells. CELLOP is intended for the optimisation of 3 to 6 physical, chemical, or biological variables in the cultivation conditions of plant cell cultures. The model was used to optimise the culturing conditions (calcium, inorganic nitrogen, and sucrose concentrations) for coumarin-producing, spontaneously embryogenic cell lines of angelica Angelica archangelica L. subsp. archangelica and hogs fennel Peucedanum palustre (L.) Moench. For A. archangelica the overall optimum concentrations were 0.47 mM Ca2+, 5.06 mM NO3 , 0.40 mM NH4 +, and 96.25 mM sucrose. The dry mass was 24.7 % higher and the coumarin content 40.5 % higher than those achieved in the standard 75 % Gamborg B5 medium. For A. archangelica the highest embryogenic activity was reached in the media containing 1.25 mM Ca2+. In the case of P. palustre the overall optimum concentrations were 1.60 mM Ca2+, 2.84 mM NO3 , 0.23 mM NH4 +, and 85.10 mM sucrose. For P. palustre the dry mass production increased by 61.8 % and the coumarin content by 58.1 % compared to the values achieved in the Gamborg B5 medium. For P. palustre the highest embryogenic activity was reached in the presence of 50.0 mM NO3 and 4.01 mM NH4 +.  相似文献

Addition to rat liver mitochondria of 2 mM inorganic phosphate or 0.15 mM diamide, a thiol-oxidizing agent, induced an efflux of endogenous Mg2+ linear with time and dependent on coupled respiration. No net Ca2+ release occurred under these conditions, while a concomitant release of K+ was observed. Mg2+ efflux mediated either by Pi or low concentrations of diamide was completely prevented by EGTA, Ruthenium red, and NEM. These reagents also inhibited the increased rate of state 4 respiration induced both by Pi and diamide. At higher concentrations (0.4 mM), diamide induced an efflux of Mg2+ which was associated also with a release of endogenous Ca2+. Under these conditions EGTA completely prevented Mg2+ and K+ effluxes, while they were only partially inhibited by Ruthenium red and NEM. It is assumed that Mg2+ efflux, occurring at low diamide concentrations or in the presence of phosphate, is dependent on a cyclic in-and-out movement of Ca2+ across the inner mitochondrial membrane, in which the passive efflux is compensated by a continuous energy linked reuptake. This explains the dependence of Mg2+ efflux on coupled respiration, as well as the increased rate of state 4 respiration. The dependence of Mg2+ efflux on phosphate transport is explained by the phosphate requirement for Ca2+ movement.Abbreviations Diamide diazenedicarboxylic acidbis-dimethylamide - FCCP p-trifluoromethoxyphenylhydrazone - EGTA ethylene glycol-bis-(2-amino ethyl ether)-N,N-tetracetic acid - Pi inorganic phosphate - Ruthenium red Ru2(OH)2Cl4 · 7NH3 · 3H2O - state 4 controlled state of respiration in the presence of substrate - RCI respiratory control index - NEM N-ethyl maleimide A partial and preliminary report of these results has been published inBiochem.

Root hair development is orchestrated by nutritional factors and plant hormones. We investigated the action of ammonium (NH4+) and its interactions with methyl jasmonate (MeJA) and ethylene in Arabidopsis root hair growth. The formation of root hair branches was dramatically stimulated in media containing 1.25 to 20 mM NH4+ at pH values of 4.0 to 6.5. The NH4+-treated root hairs showed a very short tip growth stage and swells on the sides that indicated the emergence of branches. MeJA (0.08 to 10 μM) worked in synergism with NH4+ to enhance hair branching. In contrast, ethylene had an antagonistic effect; the stimulation of hair branching by NH4+ was suppressed by the ethylene precursor 1-aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid (ACC) and was diminished in ethylene-overproducing mutant eto1-1 seedlings. Moreover, the application of Ag+, an ethylene inhibitor, reduced the ACC-induced inhibition of NH4+-stimulated hair branching and restored NH4+-stimulated hair branching in eto1-1 seedlings. Thus, the actions of jasmonate and ethylene appear to be dependent on nutritional conditions such as available nitrogen.  相似文献

Excessive use of nitrogen (N) fertilizer has increased ammonium (NH4+) accumulation in many paddy soils to levels that reduce rice vegetative biomass and yield. Based on studies of NH4+ toxicity in rice (Oryza sativa, Nanjing 44) seedlings cultured in agar medium, we found that NH4+ concentrations above 0.75 mM inhibited the growth of rice and caused NH4+ accumulation in both shoots and roots. Use of excessive NH4+ also induced rhizosphere acidification and inhibited the absorption of K, Ca, Mg, Fe and Zn in rice seedlings. Under excessive NH4+ conditions, exogenous γ‐aminobutyric acid (GABA) treatment limited NH4+ accumulation in rice seedlings, reduced NH4+ toxicity symptoms and promoted plant growth. GABA addition also reduced rhizosphere acidification and alleviated the inhibition of Ca, Mg, Fe and Zn absorption caused by excessive NH4+. Furthermore, we found that the activity of glutamine synthetase/NADH‐glutamate synthase (GS; EC 6.3.1.2/NADH‐GOGAT; EC1.4.1.14) in root increased gradually as the NH4+ concentration increased. However, when the concentration of NH4+ is more than 3 mM, GABA treatment inhibited NH4+‐induced increases in GS/NADH‐GOGAT activity. The inhibition of ammonium assimilation may restore the elongation of seminal rice roots repressed by high NH4+. These results suggest that mitigation of ammonium accumulation and assimilation is essential for GABA‐dependent alleviation of ammonium toxicity in rice seedlings.  相似文献

The effect of exogenous NH4+ on the induction of nitrate reductase activity (NRA; EC 1.6.6.1) and nitrite reductase activity (NiRA; EC 1.7.7.1) in roots of 8-day-old intact barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) seedlings was studied. Enzyme activities were induced with 0.1, 1 or 10 mM NO3+ in the presence of 0, 1 or 10 mM NH4+, Exogenous NH4+ partially inhibited the induction of NRA when roots were exposed to 0.1 mM, but not to 1 or 10 mM NO3+, In contrast, the induction of NiRA was inhibited by NH4+ at all NO3+ levels. Maximum inhibition of the enzyme activities occurred at 1.0 mM NH4+ Pre-treatment with NH4+ had no effect on the subsequent induction of NRA in the absence of additional NH4+ whereas the induction of NiRA in NH4+-pretreated roots was inhibited in the absence of NH4+ At 10 mM NO3+ L-methionine sulfoximine stimulated the induction of NRA whether or not exogenous NH4+ was present. In contrast, the induction of NiRA was inhibited by L-methionine sulfoximine irrespective of NH4+ supply. During the postinduction phase, exogenous NH4+ decreased NRA in roots supplied with 0.1 mM but not with 1mM NH3+ whereas, NiRA was unaffected by NH4+ at either substrate concentration. The results indicate that exogenous NH4+ regulates the induction of NRA in roots by limiting the availability of NO3+. Conversely, it has a direct effect, independent of the availability of NO3+, on the induction of NiRA. The lack of an NH4+ effect on NiRA during the postinduction phase is apparently due to a slower turnover rate of that enzyme.  相似文献

NH4+ and K+ uptake experiments have been conducted with 3 ectomycorrhizal fungi, originating from Douglas fir (Pseudotsuga menziesii (Mirb.] Franco) stands. At concentrations up to 250 μM, uptake of both NH4+ and K+ follow Michaelis-Menten kinetics. Laccaria bicolor (Maire) P. D. Orton, Lactarius rufus (Scop.) Fr. and Lactarius hepaticus Plowr. ap. Boud. exhibit Km values for NH4+ uptake of 6, 35, and 55 μM, respectively, and Km values for K+ uptake of 24, 18, and 96 μM, respectively. Addition of 100 μM NH4+ raises the Km of K+ uptake by L. bicolor to 35 μM, while the Vmax remains unchanged. It is argued that the increase of Km is possibly caused by depolarization of the plasma membrane. It is not due to a competitive inhibition of K+ by NH4+ since the apparent inhibitor constant is much higher than the Km, for NH4+ uptake. The possibility that NH4+ and K+ are taken up by the same carrier can be excluded. The Km, values for K+ uptake in the two other fungi are not significantly affected by 100 μM NH4+. Except for a direct effect of NH4+ on influx of K+ into the cells, there may also be an indirect effect after prolonged incubation of the cells in the presence of 100 μM NH4+.  相似文献

Fermentation of biomass derived synthesis gas to ethanol is a sustainable approach that can provide more usable energy and environmental benefits than food-based biofuels. The effects of various medium components on ethanol production by Clostridium ragsdalei utilizing syngas components (CO:CO2) were investigated, and corn steep liquor (CSL) was used as an inexpensive nutrient source for ethanol production by C. ragsdalei. Elimination of Mg2+, NH4 + and PO4 3− decreased ethanol production from 38 to 3.7, 23 and 5.93 mM, respectively. Eliminating Na+, Ca2+, and K+ or increasing Ca2+, Mg2+, K+, NH4 + and PO4 3− concentrations had no effect on ethanol production. However, increased Na+ concentration (171 mM) inhibited growth and ethanol production. Yeast extract (0.5 g l−1) and trace metals were necessary for growth of C. ragsdalei. CSL alone did not support growth and ethanol production. Nutrients limiting in CSL were trace metals, NH4 + and reducing agent (Cys: cysteine sulfide). Supplementation of trace metals, NH4 + and CyS to CSL (20 g l−1, wet weight basis) yielded better growth and similar ethanol production as compared to control medium. Using 10 g l−1, the nutritional limitation led to reduced ethanol production. Higher concentrations of CSL (50 and 100 g l−1) were inhibitory for cell growth and ethanol production. The CSL could replace yeast extract, vitamins and minerals (excluding NH4 +). The optimized CSL medium produced 120 and 50 mM of ethanol and acetate, respectively. The CSL could provide as an inexpensive source of most of the nutrients required for the syngas fermentation, and thus could improve the economics of ethanol production from biomass derived synthesis gas by C. ragsdalei.  相似文献

In search for the optimal culture conditions resulting in a high production of healthy plants and low occurrence of hyperhydricity in tissue cultured regenerants of Aloe polyphylla, we investigated the relationship between ammonium ions in the medium, applied cytokinins (CKs) and CK concentrations in the induction of hyperhydricity. Shoots were grown on media with different NH4 + concentrations (10.3, 20.6 and 61.8 mM) and supplemented with N6-benzyladenine (BA), zeatin or thidiazuron (TDZ) at 0, 5 or 15 μM. Elevating the levels of NH4 +, in the absence of CKs, could not induce hyperhydricity. Similarly, very low hyperhydricity was observed when CKs were added to media containing low NH4 + (10.3 mM). However, in the presence of higher NH4 + concentrations, CKs increased hyperhydricity in a concentration-dependant manner, suggesting that they were capable of inducing this syndrome only when other factors in the culture system were not optimised. High numbers of healthy looking shoots were produced on media with low NH4 + and low BA or zeatin (5 μM). The use of TDZ resulted in the formation of buds, which did not develop into shoots. Identifying the factors responsible for hyperhydricity is an important step in the successful use of the micropropagation technique for the conservation of this species.  相似文献

Abstract

Under standard conditions (Mg2+/150 mM NH4 +) ribosomes can quantitatively participate in tRNA binding at Mg2+ concentrations of 12 to 15 mM. The overall poly(U)-directed Phe incorporation and the extent of tRNA binding to either P,E or A sites decrease in a parallel manner when the Mg2+ concentration is lowered below 10 mM. At 4 mM the inactivation amounts to about 80%. The coordinate inactivation of all three binding sites is accompanied by an increasing impairment of the ability to translocate A-site bound AcPhe-tRNA to the P site. The translocation efficiency is already reduced at 10 mM Mg2+, and is completely blocked at 6—8 mM.

The severe inactivation seen at 6 mM Mg2+ vanishes when the polyamines spermine (0.6 mM) and spermidine (0.4 mM) are present in the assay; tRNA binding again becomes quantitative, the total Phe synthesis even exceeds that observed in the absence of polyamines by a factor of 4. In the presence of polyamines and low Mg2+ (3 and 6 mM) two essential features of the allosteric three-site model (Rheinberger and Nierhaus,J.Biol. Chem. 261, 9133 (1986)) are demonstrated. 1) Deacylated tRNA is not released from the P site, but moves to the E site during the course of translocation. 2) Occupation of the E site reduces the A site affinity and vice versa (allosteric interactions between E and A sites).

The quality of an in vitro system for protein synthesis can be assessed by two criteria. First, the incubation conditions must allow a near quantitative tRNA binding. Secondly, protein synthesis should proceed with near in vivo rate and accuracy. The 3 mM Mg2+/NH4 +/polyamine- system seems to be the best compromise at present between these two requirements.  相似文献

Euryhaline crustaceans rarely hyporegulates and employ the driving force of the Na,K-ATPase, located at the basal surface of the gill epithelium, to maintain their hemolymph osmolality within a range compatible with cell function during hyper-regulation. Since polyamine levels increase during the adaptation of crustaceans to hyperosmotic media, we investigate the effect of exogenous polyamines on Na,K-ATPase activity in the posterior gills of Callinectes danae, a euryhaline swimming crab. Polyamine inhibition was dependent on cation concentration, charge and size in the following order: spermine > spermidine > putrescine. Spermidine affected K0.5 values for Na+ with minor alterations in K0.5 values for K+ and NH4+, causing a decrease in maximal velocities under saturating Na+, K+ and NH4+ concentrations. Phosphorylation measurements in the presence of 20 µM ATP revealed that the Na,K-ATPase possesses a high affinity site for this substrate. In the presence of 10 mM Na+, both spermidine and spermine inhibited formation of the phosphoenzyme; however, in the presence of 100 mM Na+, the addition of these polyamines allowed accumulation of the phosphoenzyme. The polyamines inhibited pumping activity, both by competing with Na+ at the Na+-binding site, and by inhibiting enzyme dephosphorylation. These findings suggest that polyamine-induced inhibition of Na,K-ATPase activity may be physiologically relevant during migration to fully marine environments.  相似文献

Effects of ammonium on the photosynthetic recovery of Nostoc flagelliforme Berk. et M. A. Curtis were assayed when being rehydrated in low‐K+ or high‐K+ medium. Its photosynthetic recovery was K+ limited after 3 years of dry storage. The potassium absorption of N. flagelliforme reached the maximum after 3 h rehydration in low‐K+ medium but at 5 min in high‐K+ medium. The K+ content of N. flagelliforme rehydrated in high‐K+ medium was much higher than that in low‐K+ medium. The maximal PSII quantum yield (Fv/Fm) value of N. flagelliforme decreased significantly when samples were rehydrated in low‐K+ medium treated with 5 mM NH4Cl. However, the treatment of 20 mM NH4Cl had little effect on its Fv/Fm value in high‐K+ medium. The relative Fv/Fm 24 h EC50 (concentration at which 50% inhibition occurred) value of NH4+ in high‐K+ medium (64.35 mM) was much higher than that in low‐K+ medium (22.17 mM). This finding indicated that high K+ could alleviate the inhibitory action of NH4+ upon the photosynthetic recovery of N. flagelliforme during rehydration. In the presence of 10 mM tetraethylammonium chloride (TEACl), the relative Fv/Fm 24 h EC50 value of NH4+ was increased to 46.34 and 70.78 mM, respectively, in low‐K+ and high‐K+ media. This observation suggested that NH4+ entered into N. flagelliforme cells via the K+ channel. Furthermore, NH4+ could decrease K+ absorption in high‐K+ medium.  相似文献

In patch-clamp experiments on isolated chloroplasts of Peperomia metallica Lind. et Rodig. (Piperaceae), the replacement of 50 mM KCl in a medium with 50 mM NH4Cl strongly influenced the parameters of photocurrent known to reflect the generation of electric potential in thylakoids. The addition of NH+ 4to the medium modified the induction curves of the photocurrent as well as the currents induced by single-turnover flashes in preilluminated chloroplasts. Under the action of a prolonged light pulse (1 s), the steady-state current was much higher in the ammonium-containing medium than in the presence of K+. Preillumination of a dark-adapted chloroplast with a 1-s light pulse suppressed the current induced by a single-turnover flash (6 s) in the presence of K+ but caused an elevation (by 50–150%) of the flash-induced current and shortening of its relaxation time in the presence of NH+ 4. The origin of different induction kinetics for the photocurrent in K+ and NH+ 4 media is partly clear, because ammonium prevents generation of the pH gradient and, subsequently, eliminates the pH-dependent suppression of the electron transport rate. However, this does not explain the origin of NH+ 4-dependent photostimulation of the current generated by single-turnover flashes. This phenomenon arises from the thylakoid swelling caused by the accumulation of NH+ 4 in the lumen and from the respective changes in the network resistances. The network element most sensitive to thylakoid swelling is the lateral resistance of the lumen: it decreases upon enlargement of the cross-section area. Stimulation of the flash-induced current by preillumination in the presence of NH+ 4 was accompanied by accelerated relaxation of the current, indicating that the phenomena observed are caused by the reduction of network resistance involved in the discharge of the membrane capacity. Thus, the light-induced structural changes in the thylakoid system have a marked effect on the currents measured with the patch-clamp technique.  相似文献

Oxidation of NADH in submitochondrial particles, with O2 or ferricyanide as electron acceptor, was inhibited by micromolar concentrations of NAD+ when measured in 240 mM sucrose or, in a lesser extent, in 120 mM NaCl or LiCl. In 120 mM solutions of either KCl, RbCl, CsCl or NH4Cl the inhibition by up to 100 μM concentrations of NAD+ did not occur. The inhibition observed in the sucrose medium disappeared after solubilization of the particles with detergents and re-appeared when the membranes were reconstituted. The inhibitory effect was potentiated by palmitoyl-CoA. The possibility is discussed that the inhibition of NADH oxidation by low concentrations of NAD+ and its release by K+, Rb+, Cs+ and NH4+ depend on the interaction between NAD+ and the negatively charged mitochondrial membrane.  相似文献

【目的】研究产胞外分泌物微生物Shewanella putrefaciens CN32对土壤中常见粘土矿物附着态NH_4~+的释放效果及影响机制。【方法】以吸附NH_4~+的蒙脱石、蛭石、伊蒙混层矿物和黑云母为对象,通过监测S. putrefaciens CN32作用下不同粘土释放的NH_4~+含量及过程,以及监测微生物量及释放的胞外聚合物(Extracellular Polymeric Substances,EPS)的含量变化,研究S. putrefaciens CN32作用下不同粘土矿物类型附着态NH_4~+释放的差异性。【结果】粘土矿物附着态NH_4~+含量从高到低依次为蒙脱石蛭石伊蒙混层矿物黑云母(黑云母NH_4~+吸附量极低,会在非生物作用下几乎完全释放),CN32作用下粘土附着态NH_4~+相对释放量依次为蒙脱石伊蒙混层矿物蛭石;然而,尽管CN32有效促进了粘土附着态NH_4~+释放,但释放的NH_4~+并未在溶液中大量累积,而是多被微生物同化吸收转化为生物有机氮(EPS为主)并吸附在粘土表面,且粘土对EPS的吸附能力表现为蒙脱石伊蒙混层矿物蛭石黑云母;由于粘土吸附NH_4~+及EPS都与矿物中的羟基(结构水或层间水)关系密切,推测EPS对矿物羟基的竞争吸附可能是CN32促进NH_4~+释放的重要原因之一。【结论】以上结果表明,产EPS微生物S. putrefaciens CN32能够促进各类粘土矿物的附着态NH_4~+释放,但释放的NH_4~+可以通过微生物作用转化为有机氮,从而在减少NH_4~+流失的同时增加土壤氮肥的生物可利用性,因此微生物在降低土壤氮肥流失、转化土壤氮肥污染过程中可能起到了重要作用,也揭示了深入系统地分析不同类型土壤(粘土类型不同)中粘土附着态NH_4~+在不同功能微生物作用下的迁移转化过程,是精准评估土壤氮肥施用效率及流失风险的前提之一。  相似文献

The effects of macronutrients (NO3 , NH4 + and PO4 3−) on cell growth and triterpenoids production inCentella asiatica cell suspension cultures were analyzed using the Box-Behnken response surface model experimental design. In screening and optimization experiments, PO4 3− as a single factor significantly influenced cell growth where increasing the phosphate level from 0.1 to 2.4 or 2.6 mM, elevated cell growth from 3.9 to 14–16 g/L. The optimum values predicted from the response surface model are 5.05 mM NH4 +, 15.0 mM NO3 and 2.6 mM PO4 3−, yielding 16.0 g/L cell dry weight with 99% fitness to the experimental data. While the NH4 +-NO3 interaction influenced cell growth positively in the optimization experiment, NH4 + and NO3 as single factors; and interactions of NO3 -PO4 3−, NH4 +-PO4 3− and NH4 +-NO3 were all negative in the screening experiment. Cell growth and the final pH level were positively affected by PO4 3−, but negatively affected by NH4 + and NH4 +-PO4 3− interactions. The different effects of factors and their interactions on cell growth and final pH are influenced by a broad or narrow range of macronutrient concentrations. The productions of triterpenoids however were lower than 4 mg/g cell dry weight.  相似文献

The synergistic benefits of the dual inoculation of legumes with nodule bacteria and arbuscular mycorrhizae (AM) are well established, but the effect of an external NH4+ supply on this tripartite relationship is less clear. This effect of NH4+ supply was investigated with regards to the growth and function of the legume host and both symbionts. Nodulated Phaseolus vulgaris seedlings with and without AM, were grown in a sand medium with either 0 N, 1 mM or 3 mM NH4+. Plants were harvested at 30 days after emergence and measurements were taken for biomass, N2 fixation, photosynthesis, asparagine concentration, construction costs and N nutrition. The addition of NH4+ led to a decline in the percentage AM colonization and nodule dry weights, although AM colonization was affected to a lesser extent. NH4+ supply also resulted in a decrease in the reliance on biological nitrogen fixation (BNF); however, the AM roots maintained higher levels of NH4+ uptake than their non-AM counterparts. Furthermore, the non-AM plants had a higher production of asparagine than the AM plants. The inhibitory effects of NH4+ on nodule function can be reduced by the presence of AM at moderate levels of NH4+ (1 mM), via improving nodule growth or relieving the asparagine-induced inhibition of BNF.  相似文献
