This study presents a novel method for the extraction and quantification of extraradical mycelium (ERM) of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) from a substrate that simulates soil better than previously used artificial growth media. Fungal compartments were constructed from small net pots with a latticed wall and filled with a mixture of glass beads and 40 m wet sieved soil. The net pots were surrounded by a 30-m mesh membrane through which hyphae but not roots could grow. They were inserted into soil where a Glomus intraradices (BEG 110) colonized potato plant was growing. The ERM that had grown out from roots through the membrane was successfully collected and quantified after harvest by washing out the soil/glass bead mixture through a sieve with a mesh width of 40 m. Concentrations of P, Zn, Cu and Mn in the AMF ERM were analysed. 相似文献

The external mycelium forms the major part of the absorbing surface of mycorrhized tree roots. Because the macro pore space of acid forest soils is selectively depleted of mobile nutrient cations, it is ecologically important, whether soil hyphae grow into the soil aggregates or not. Seedlings of Norway Spruce (Picea abies (L.) Karst.) with defined mycorrhiza were grown in unsterilized soil cores taken from the A and B-horizon of a limed and an unlimed cambisol on triassic sandstone in the Northern Black Forest, Germany. Water-tension treatments were 10, 30, 160 and 900 hPa. On ground and polished vertical cuts stained with acridine orange, we identified and measured the location of hyphae and characterized their micropedological environment using an image analyzing system. Mean length density varied between 17 m/cm3 and 100 m/cm3 and was independent of aeration parameters. The percentage of hyphae completely embedded in the soil matrix varied between 30% and 8% and decreased significantly with increasing CO2 concentration in the soil air. Of the hyphae in the soil matrix, 70% were located in a 50 m shell around the macro pores. Pair correlation functions show, that the majority of soil hyphae occur in clusters with diameters below 100 m. Between 60% and 80% of randomly chosen circles with 250 m diameters were completely devoid of hyphae. The inefficient opening up of the intra-aggregate space by soil hyphae is explained by the very slow oxygen diffusion between air-filled macro pores and the intra-aggregate space and mechanical restrictions for hyphae growth. 相似文献

An experiment was set up to investigate the role of arbuscular mycorrhiza (AM) in utilization of P from organic matter during mineralization in soil. Cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) inoculated with one of two AM fungi or left uninoculated were grown for 30 days in cross-shaped PVC pots. One of two horizontal compartments contained 100 g soil (quartz sand: clay loam, 1:1) with 0.5 g ground clover leaves labelled with32P. The labelled soil received microbial inoculum without AM fungi to ensure mineralization of the added organic matter. The labelling compartment was separated from a central root compartment by either 37 m or 700 m nylon mesh giving only hyphae or both roots and hyphae, respectively, access to the labelled soil. The recovery of32P from the hyphal compartment was 5.5 and 8.6% for plants colonized withGlomus sp. andG. caledonium, respectively, but only 0.6 % for the non-mycorrhizal controls. Interfungal differences were not related to root colonization or hyphal length densities, which were lowest forG. caledonium. Both fungi depleted the labelled soil of NaHCO3-extractable P and32P compared to controls. A 15–25% recovery of32P by roots was not enhanced in the presence of mycorrhizas, probably due to high root densities in the labelled soil. The experiment confirms that AM fungi differ in P uptake characteristics, and that mycorrhizal hyphae can intercept some P immobilization by other microorganisms and P-sorbing clay minerals. 相似文献

Contribution of the VA mycorrhizal hyphae in acquisition of phosphorus and zinc by maize grown in a calcareous soil 总被引:14,自引:1,他引:13
An investigation was carried out to test whether the mechanism of increased zinc (Zn) uptake by mycorrhizal plants is similar to that of increased phosphorus (P) acquisition. Maize (Zea mays L.) was grown in pots containing sterilised calcareous soil either inoculated with a mycorrhizal fungus Glomus mosseae (Nicol. and Gerd.) Gerdemann and Trappe or with a mixture of mycorrhizal fungi, or remaining non-inoculated as non-mycorrhizal control. The pots had three compartments, a central one for root growth and two outer ones for hyphal growth. The compartmentalization was done using a 30-m nylon net. The root compartment received low or high levels of P (50 or 100 mg kg–1 soil) in combination with low or high levels of P and micronutrients (2 or 10 mg kg–1 Fe, Zn and Cu) in the hyphal compartments.Mycorrhizal fungus inoculation did not influence shoot dry weight, but reduced root dry weight when low P levels were supplied to the root compartment. Irrespective of the P levels in the root compartment, shoots and roots of mycorrhizal plants had on average 95 and 115% higher P concentrations, and 164 and 22% higher Zn concentrations, respectively, compared to non-mycorrhizal plants. These higher concentrations could be attributed to a substantial translocation of P and Zn from hyphal compartments to the plant via the mycorrhizal hyphae. Mycorrhizal inoculation also enhanced copper concentration in roots (135%) but not in shoots. In contrast, manganese (Mn) concentrations in shoots and roots of mycorrhizal plants were distinctly lower, especially in plants inoculated with the mixture of mycorrhizal fungi.The results demonstrate that VA mycorrhizal hyphae uptake and translocation to the host is an important component of increased acquisition of P and Zn by mycorrhizal plants. The minimal hyphae contribution (delivery by the hyphae from the outer compartments) to the total plant acquisition ranged from 13 to 20% for P and from 16 to 25% for Zn. 相似文献

Symbiosis between fungi and plant roots forming a mycorrhiza involves extensive interactions at the molecular level between both partners. The role of plant hormones in the regulation of mycorrhizal infection is not known to involve jasmonates. Their endogenous levels increase during pathogen attack; however, little has been done on their involvement in mycorrhizae. In our recent work, root growth patterns of 2-month-old spruce seedlings after inoculation withPisolithus tinctorius and/or jasmonic acid (JA) treatment were studied using a paper-sandwich technique. Changes in root length, the degree of branching, presence and length of root hairs, and infection parameters were followed using a stereomicroscope. The first mycorrhizal contact of hyphae with roots was significantly accelerated upon treatment with 0.5 M JA. Interactions between root hairs and fungal hyphae were seen by scanning electron microscopy. The multiplication of root hairs of non-mycorrhized seedlings treated with 5.0 M JA and changes of the root surface were observed by the same technique. 相似文献

The number of bacterial cells in soil that form colonies on nutrient agar represent a small fraction of the direct microscopic counts (DMC). The colony-forming cells have larger cell dimensions than the very small (dwarf) cells which represent the majority of the DMC. This may indicate that the dwarf cells are species unable to form visible colonies on agar, or that they swell to normal dimensions when growing. Indigenous bacterial cells were separated from soil by density gradient centrifugation and fractionated according to diameter by filtration through polycarbonate filters. Each filtrate was studied with respect to DMC, cell dimensions, colony-forming cells (visible colonies and microcolonies), and cell dimensions during growth on the agar. The calculated average percent viability was only 0.2% for cells with diameters below 0.4m, about 10% for cells with diameters between 0.4 and 0.6m, and 30–40% for cells with diameters above 0.6m. Only 10–20% of the viable cells with diameters <0.4m increased their diameter to >0.4m prior to growth. Thus, size change during starvation and growth cycles did not explain the high numbers of dwarf cells observed by microscopy. The results show that despite the relatively low number of colony-forming bacteria in soil, the species that form colonies may be fairly representative for the medium size and large cells, which constitute a major part of the bacterial biovolume. Thus plate counting could be a useful method to count and isolate the bacteria accounting for much of the biovolume in soil. The origin of the dwarf cells is still unclear, but the low number of small cells that increased in size seems to indicate that the majority of these bacterial cells are not small forms of ordinary sized bacteria. 相似文献

Two sensitive methods for the enzymatic determination of mannitol are described which were applied to fungal and mycorrhizal extracts. Both methods are based on the oxidation of mannitol by mannitol dehydrogenase from Agaricus hortensis and the fluorometric determination of the NADPH produced in this reaction. The detection limits are 125 pmol for the direct fluorometric assay and 100 fmol, when enzymatic cycling of NADPH is included. The levels of mannitol detected were 123 pmol/g dry wt (mycelia from Cenococcum geophilum, cultivated on malt medium), below 0.3 or about 2.4 pmol/g dry wt (mycelia from Amanita muscaria, dependent on carbon source in the cultivation medium), and between 1.9 and 5.2 pmol/g dry wt in mycorrhizal short roots of Picea abies/Amanita muscaria. 相似文献

Polyamines and proline are affected by cadmium stress in nodules and roots of soybean plants 总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7
The effect of moderate (50 M) and high (200 M) doses of Cd were studied in relation to polyamine (Pas) metabolism, proline level and the glutamine synthetase/glutamate synthase system (GS/GOGAT) activity in nodules and roots of soybean plants during 6 days of treatment. The lower Cd concentration increased putrescine (Put) in both nodules and roots, while 200 M Cd increased Spm only in nodules and Put in roots. Spermidine (Spd) decreased in roots under both Cd concentrations. Arginine decarboxylase (ADC) and ornithine decarboxylase (ODC) were both involved in Put biosynthesis in roots. In nodules, Put formation could mainly be attributed to ODC activity. Diamine oxidase (DAO) activity was severely reduced by 50 and 200 M Cd either in nodules or roots. The GS/GOGAT system activity was depressed either with 50 or 200 M Cd, but most significantly with the highest metal concentration. Under 200 M Cd, GS activity decayed to 25% or 60% of the control in nodules and roots, respectively, while GOGAT decreased 85% in nodules and 79% in roots by day 4 of treatment. Ammonium increased greatly in nodules (200% over the controls) and roots (100%) under 200 M Cd. Proline concentration increased significantly in nodules and roots under both Cd treatments, more markedly under 200 M Cd. The relationship between Pas and proline accumulation and nitrogen assimilation is discussed. 相似文献

Summary Effect of five fungicidesviz Agrosan. Benlate, Captan, Ceresan and Plantavax on VA mycorrhizal symbiosis in onion was studied in a phosphorus deficient, sandy loam soil. Two levels of fungicides (2.5 g and 25 g/g soil) were applied to the soil. Agrosan, Benlate and Plantavax applied at 25 g/g soil reduced the mycorrhizal colonization significantly. All the fungicides, except Captan, applied at lower concentration reduced plant growth and P uptake. Captan applied at the lower concentration had no effect on mycorrhizal colonization, plant growth and P uptake, and when applied at higher concentration had least effect on plant growth compared to other fungicides.Contribution of U.A.S.

The role of mycorrhizal infection in the resistance of Vaccinium macrocarpon to manganese was investigated in perlite culture containing nutrient solution amended with Mn at 0, 250, 500 or 1000 g/ml. Shoot and root dry weights of the mycorrhizal plants were higher than nonmycorrhizal plants. The mycorrhizal plants produced significantly longer main roots than the nonmycorrhizal plants. Differences between shoot and root Mn concentrations of mycorrhizal and nonmycorrhizal plants arose by reduction of Mn in the leaves of mycorrhizal plants and a corresponding increase in root tissues. 相似文献

The effect of 2-hydroxybenzoate (2-OHB, salicylate) on the mineralization rate of [14C]naphthalene, the population density of naphthalene-degrading bacteria, and the concentration of genes encoding for naphthalene dioxygenase in a soil bacterial community was investigated. Six different concentrations of 2-OHB (10, 20, 50, 100, 150 and 200 g g–1 soil) were tested in 100-g portions of soil. The addition of 10, 20 or 50 g 2-OHB g–1 soil produced a general increase in total soil bacterial population density, whereas the addition of 100 g or 200 g 2-OHB g–1 soil specifically increased the proportion of naphthalene degraders relative to the total population. The addition of 50 g 2-OHB g–1 soil produced a fourfold increase (the maximum observed) in the rate of naphthalene mineralization relative to the rate in unamended soil. The concentration of 2-OHB ( 100 g/g) added to soil correlated with the population density of naphthalene degraders (r=0.961). Addition of up to 200 g 2-OHB g–1 correlated with the abundance of DNA sequences homologous to known naphthalene dioxygenase genes (nahAB) (r=0.958). However, mineralization of [14C]naphthalene was stimulated significantly only by the addition of 50 g 2-OHB g–1 soil. Results of the mineralization experiments were supported by the detection of nahAB mRNA extracted directly from soil. The specificity of the effect of 2-OHB on naphthalene biodegradation was confirmed in a control experiment using equivalent concentrations of 4-OHB which repressed naphthalene mineralization by about 50%. Addition of ammonium nitrate to the soil also increased the rate of naphthalene mineralization. Ammonium nitrate added together with 2-OHB reduced the mineralization enhancement effect of either compound alone. The study confirmed that specific induction of biodegradative genes can enhance chemical pollutant removal in situ.

Maximum inhibition of Glycine max, cv. Essex seed germination occurred at 10 g/ml following 72 hr imbibition in constant light. Seeds imbided 108 hr in constant darkness at this concentration showed a 20% rise in germination over that of the control. Imbibition of G. max, cv. Williams seeds in either light or dark for 96 hr did not suppress germination. Imbibition of Essex seeds in either light or dark at 2.5 through 10 g/ml stimulated root elongation except for 10 g/ml at 96 hr (light). Maximum inhibition of Williams root elongation under constant light was at 48 and 72 hr with 10 g/ml. Statistically significant differences in cotyledon, leaf and stem lengths between non-treated (NT) and treated (T) seedlings were not found except for Williams stem length at 2.5 / ml. Root elongation was stimulated 1.2- and 1.1-folds, respectively, at 5.0 (Essex) and 2.5 (Williams) g/ml. Toxin at 2.5 through 10.0 g/ml did not markedly alter either cotyledon or leaf widths with the exception of Williams leaf width at 2.5 g/ml. Medium supplementation with 2.5 through 10.0 g/ml resulted in cotyledon, leaf and root weight enhancements for Essex seedlings. Stem weight was not markedly affected. An 18% rise in Williams cotyledon weight above that of the control was seen at 2.5 g/ml. Williams leaf weights were increased 1.75- and 1.25-folds, respectively, at 2.5 and 10.0 g/ml. Aflatoxin B1, at 2.5 g/ml promoted Williams stem and root elongation 1.20- and 1.09-folds, respectively. Most of the radioactivity from 65Zn-ZnCl2 recovered within organs was found within Essex roots for both T and NT seedlings. A higher amount of radioactivity was recovered within roots at each toxin concentration than was without toxin. However, this was not statistically significant. Significant differences in the distribution of radioactivity within roots between NT and T Williams seedlings were not observed. Generally, AFB1 failed to affect significantly these two varieties of soybeans based on the tests relating to germination, growth and radiolabel uptake. 相似文献

Complete plants of Lupinus luteus L. cv. Aurea that were regenerated from hypocotyl segments, bloomed, produced seeds and were efficiently nodulated by Bradyrhizobium sp. strains. The highest rates of shoot formation were obtained on A medium plus 1.3% agar with 10.0 M 2-isopentenyladenine (2iP) and 0.11 M naphthaleneacetic acid (NAA); the best rooting was achieved on a medium with 0.5 M NAA plus 0.05 M 2iP. Afterward, plantlets were transferred to either perlite or peat-containing pots and irrigated with a N-free nutrient solution until maturity. Direct rooting of hypocotyls could also be obtained on A medium with 1% agar. 相似文献

Microdissected Deiters' neuron plasma membranes have been used for studying the passage of GABA through the membrane both in the inward and outward direction. Working with 0.2 mM GABA in the compartment simulating the outside of the neurone and with 2.0 mM GABA in the one simulating the inside we found a net transport of GABA towards the inside. This mechanism does not require a Na+ ion gradient across the membrane. The nature of the transport process involved was studied by determining the rate of [3H]-GABA inward passage as a function of GABA concentration (1 nM–800 M) on the outward side of the membrane. The results have shown that until 50 M a diffusion process (v=D1×C, where D1=3.1×10–11 1/m2×sec) is the sole mechanism involved. Above 50 M a second diffusion process is activated v=D2×(C–50×10–6), where D2=2.8×10–11 1/m2×sec. Taking in account both inward and outward directed diffusion, one can calculate 16 M as the equilibrium concentration of GABA on the outward side of the membrane. From a kinetic point of view, these diffusion processes are able to reduce GABA concentration in a synaptic cleft from 3 mM to 20 M within 3 sec. These diffusion systems are discussed as extremely efficient in removing the excess of released GABA in the synaptic cleft. 相似文献

Summary Effect of manganese on absorption and translocation of zinc by rice seedlings was studied in a nutrient solution using radioactive zinc (Zn65). With increase in manganese application, zinc uptake decreased in roots, but increased in shoots with an application upto 10 M manganese. Reduction in zinc absorption was more at low rates of zinc application. However, translocation of zinc from roots to shoots increased with manganese application upto 20 M but the increase was more pronounced with an application of 2M zinc only. 相似文献

Effects of benzyladenine (BA) and abscisic acid (ABA) applied separately or simultaneously on parameters of gas exchange of Phaseolus vulgaris L. leaves were studied. In the first two experimental sets) 100 M ABA and 10 M BA were applied to plants sufficiently supplied with water. Spraying of leaves with ABA decreased stomatal conductance (g
s) and in consequence transpiration rate (E) and net photosynthetic rate (P
N) already 1 h after application, but 24 h after application the effect almost disappeared. 10 M BA slightly decreased gas exchange parameters, but in simultaneous application with ABA reversed the effect of ABA. Immersion of roots into the same solutions markedly decreased gas exchange parameters and 24 h after ABA application the stomata were completely closed. The effect of ABA was ameliorated by simultaneous BA application, particularly after 1-h treatment. In the third experimental set, plants were pre-treated by immersing roots into water, 1 M BA, or 100 M ABA for 24 h and then the halves of split root system were dipped into different combinations of 1 M BA, 100 M ABA, and water. In plants pre-treated with ABA all gas exchange parameters were small and they did not differ in plants treated with H2O+H2O, H2O+BA, or BA+BA. In plants pre-treated with BA or H2O, markedly lower values of P
N were found when both halves of roots were immersed in ABA. Further, the effects of pre-treatment of plants with water, 1 M BA, 100 M ABA, or ABA+BA on the development of water stress induced by cessation of watering and on the recovery after rehydration were followed. ABA markedly decreased gas exchange parameters at the beginning of the experiment, but in its later phase the effect was compensated by delay in development of water stress. BA also delayed development of water stress and increased P
N in water-stressed leaves. BA reversed the effect of ABA at mild water stress. Positive effects of BA and ABA pre-treatments were observed also after rehydration. 相似文献

Leek plants (Allium porrum L.), infected or not with the arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungus, Glomus mosseae, were grown in a sand-hydroponic system, fed with a nutrient solution containing 3.2 or 96 M P and analyzed for root IAA and ZR content, to assess the role played by the fungus and P nutrition on host hormonal balance. IAA was analyzed by HPLC-fluorimetry, ZR by HPLC-UV coupled with a bioassay based on the expression of a phytohormone-regulated GUS reporter gene. Shoot and root weights and shoot FW-DW ratio enhancements, as well as root-to-shoot DW ratio decrement in mycorrhizal plants, were related to P nutrition. Shoot P concentration was increased by mycorrhizae at both P levels, but was comparable in AM plants grown at 3.2 M P and non mycorrhizal (NM) plants at 96 M P. Mycorrhizae and P increased IAA at substantially similar values, while P increased ZR much more than mycorrhizae did. These results are discussed in relation to root architecture modifications induced by the AM fungus. 相似文献

Arabidopsis ammonium transporters,AtAMT1;1 and AtAMT1;2, have different biochemical properties and functional roles 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5

We have compared the biochemical properties of two different Arabidopsis ammonium transporters, AtAMT1;1 and AtAMT1;2, expressed in yeast, with the biophysical properties of ammonium transport in planta. Expression of the AtAMT1;1 gene in Arabidopsis roots increased approximately four-fold in response to nitrogen deprivation. This coincided with a similar increase in high-affinity ammonium uptake by these plants. The biophysical characteristics of this high-affinity system (Km for ammonium and methylammonium of 8 M and 31 M, respectively) matched those of AtAMT1;1 expressed in yeast (Km for methylammonium of 32 M and Ki for ammonium of 1–10 M). The same transport system was present, although less active, in nitrate-fed roots. Ammonium-fed plants exhibited the lowest rates of ammonium uptake and appeared to deploy a different transporter (Km for ammonium of 46 M). Expression of AtAMT1;2 in roots was insensitive to changes in nitrogen nutrition. In contrast to AtAMT1;1, AtAMT1;2 expressed in yeast exhibited biphasic kinetics for methylammonium uptake: in addition to a high-affinity phase with a Km of 36 M, a low-affinity phase with a Km for methylammonium of 3.0 mM was measured. Despite the presence of a putative chloroplast transit peptide in AtAMT1;2, the protein was not imported into chloroplasts in vitro. The electrophysiological data for roots, together with the biochemical properties of AtAMT1;1 and Northern blot analysis indicate a pre-eminent role for AtAMT1;1 in ammonium uptake across the plasma membrane of nitrate-fed and nitrogen-deprived root cells. 相似文献

Various explant sources of Populus nigra × P. maximowiczii were used to examine the effects of growth hormones on morphogenesis in vitro. Initial experiments indicated that punctured leaves were superior to non-punctured ones for both callus growth and formation of shoots and roots on MS medium containing various types and concentrations of growth hormones. After 6 weeks in culture, an average of 178 shoots, 129 roots and 3.1 g fresh weight of callus were directly produced from the abaxial side of each punctured leaf. The best combinations of growth hormones for shoot, root and callus proliferation were 0.88 M BA plus 0.05 M 2,4-D, 0.44 M BA plus 2.69 M NAA and 0.44 M BA plus 2.26 M 2,4-D, respectively. Embryoids were also formed on callus derived from punctured leaves. The number of embryoids varied from 0 to 30 per punctured leaf. Adventitious shoots also developed simultaneously with the embryos. Embryoids were removed with a scalpel at the early developmental stages and placed on MS medium lacking growth regulators. Regenerated plantlets were transferred to pots containing vermiculite for normal growth in the greenhouse. 相似文献

The effects of Ni and Cd on growth and nutrient uptake of mycorrhizal and non-mycorrhizal Pinus sylvestris L. seedlings were investigated in a pot experiment. Seedlings were either inoculated with Laccaria bicolor (Maire) Orton or left uninoculated before being planted in pots containing a mixture of sandy soil from the B-horizon of a coniferous forest, small stones and pure quartz sand. The pots were supplied with small amounts of a balanced nutrient solution every 24 h using peristaltic pumps. Nickel or Cd were added as chlorides to the nutrient solution at levels of 85 M Ni (Ni 1), 170 M Ni (Ni 2), or 8.9 M Cd. Mycorrhizal colonisation of the roots was nearly 100% in the mycorrhizal treatments. The mycorrhizal seedlings grew significantly better than the non-mycorrhizal ones. The weight of mycorrhizal seedlings in the Ni 2 treatment was 29% lower than that of the mycorrhizal controls, but still 34% greater than that of the non-mycorrhizal seedlings not exposed to metals. There was an overall, statistically significant, negative effect of metals on plant yield. Mycorrhizal plants had lower root:shoot (R:S) ratios than non-mycorrhizal plants and the R:S ratio was increased by metal exposure, particularly in the non-mycorrhizal seedlings. Plant concentrations of Cd or Ni were not affected by mycorrhizal colonisation, but total uptake of Cd and Ni was higher in bigger mycorrhizal seedlings. Nickel decreased P concentration in all seedlings and Cd decreased P concentration in the non-mycorrhizal seedlings. Generally, the mycorrhizal seedlings grew better than non-mycorrhizal ones and had better P, K, Mg and S status. Root growth was not significantly affected by the metal treatments. The reduction in mean shoot growth of non-mycorrhizal plants, relative to the metal-free control, appeared higher than in mycorrhizal plants but was not statistically significant due to high variation in the non-mycorrhizal plants not exposed to metals. The main mycorrhizal effect was thus increased nutrient uptake and growth of the seedlings. 相似文献
