The various pathways of pollen development were investigatedin cultured anthers of Lolium temulentum, Festuca pratensisand the L. multiflorum x F. pratensis hybrid Elmet.In all three, development from the vegetative cell was the predominantpathway of pollen callus development. However, there were characteristicdifferences in the behaviour of the generative cell. In L. temulentumit remained attached to the pollen wall and degenerated, whereasin F. pratensis it divided. In Elmet it detachedfrom the pollen wall and remained undivided. Both polarizedand unpolarized partitioned calluses were observed. Developmentof the fusion product of the vegetative and generative nucleiwere also observed in anthers of L. temulentum. Anomalous grainswere not found to be major source of pollen calluses. Sections of anthers of L. temulentum were used to investigatethe origin of S pollen grains, the small pale-staining grainswhich denote pollen dimorphism. Such grains form out of contactwith the tapetum and are therefore determined before or duringmeiosis (i.e. before harvest of anthers for culture). Sectionswere also used to demonstrate the influence of the durationof pretreatment on the development of the middle layer of theanther wall.

Feeding behavior of the brittle star Ophiura ophiura includesorienting posture, orienting movements, arm walking,changing the direction of walking arm coilingand ingestion. All sequential behavior patterns were releasedor enhanced by single low-molecular-weight compounds. Stimuliwhich released walking behavior at high concentrations(104 M) in all the test animals are listed in decreasingorder of sensitivity: sarcosine, glycine, urea, L-valine, L-leucine,L-methionine, L-homocysteine, L-norvaline, L-norleucine, L-threonine,L-serine, S-methyl-L-cysteine, L-proline. Threshold values forsingle amino acids were as much as 100 times different in differentindividuals and ranged from 3 x 109 to 3 x 107M for the most effective stimulus, sarcosine, and from 106to 104 M for proline. Above 105 M, only L-prolineregularly released a second behavior pattern, the arm coilingresponse, which temporarily inhibited the walkingbehavior. Behavioral thresholds for the walkingbehavior for L(+)-lactate and L-alanine were higher than thosefor the orienting movements. Thyoglycolic acid and ß-alaninereleased tube feet walking, which is not part of the feedingbehavior. Structureactivity comparisons were studied at estimated105 M concentrations. Gycline, sarcosine, L-valine, L-norvaline,L-leucine, L-isoleucine, DL-norleucine and DL-homocysteine releasedarm walking behavior in more than 75% of all thetests. With the exceptions of S-methyl-and S-ethyl-cysteine,and glycine methylester, derivatives of amino acids were noteffective behavioral stimuli in Ophiura ophiura. L-Isomers ofvaline and leucine regularly stimulated the walkingbehavior while their D-isomers were effective in some testsand ineffective in others. Acetylcholine iodide, acetyl-ß-methylcholine chloride and choline phosphate chloride regularly releasedwalking behavior at concentrations above 105M. 相似文献

Lolium temulentum plants were grown at 20 °C, under an 8-hdaylength, in a controlled-environment chamber, and the kineticsof leaf expansion were observed by measuring the movement ofan optical grid attached to the fourth leaf. The leaf emerged2324 d after sowing and was fully expanded 910d later. Extension rate was maximal between the second and fifthdays after emergence and declined markedly thereafter. Duringthe rapid growth phase the rate of elongation exhibited a distinctdiurnal rhythm, fluctuating between 1.9 to 2.3 mm h1in the light period, and 1.3 to 1.7 mm h1 in the dark.A circadian oscillation with a period of about 27 h was observedin leaves elongating in continuous darkness. When plants weretransferred to 5 °C soon after emergence of the fourth leafthere was an immediate reduction in rate of growth to about22 per cent of the rate at 20 °C: the Q10 for the mean elongationrate in the range 205 °C was 3.7. When plants weretransferred from 20 to 2 °C at fourth leaf emergence, meanextension rate declined to less than 5 per cent, correspondingto a Q10 in the range 52 °C of more than 300. Furthermore,growth at 2 °C was confined almost entirely to the darkphase of the photoperiod cycle. The responsive tissue was shownto be a small area of expanding leafless than 1.5 cm above theshoot apex and the possible mechanisms underlying low temperatureeffects in this region are discussed.

Primary and Secondary Induction Requirements for Flowering of Contrasting European Varieties of Lolium perenne 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The flowering requirements of six European varieties of Loliumperenne L. were studied in controlled environments. In experimentson primary induction, flowering was recorded after transferto long days (LD) in a greenhouse at 1224°C. In experimentson secondary induction, primary induction was first accomplishedat 6°C/10 h daylength for 12 weeks. When evaluated by the50% heading criterion, the requirement for duration of primaryinduction at 6°C/8 h daylength was <3 weeks in Mediterranean,56 weeks in Central European and 78 weeks in Scandinavianvarieties. While Veyo (Italy) flowered profuselyregardless of temperature or daylength during primary induction,critical temperatures for primary induction in SD and LD were15 and 11°C in Baca (Czech Republic) and 11and 7°C in Falster (Denmark). The criticalphotoperiod for secondary induction at 15°C ranged from12 h in Veyo and 14 h in Baca to16.5 h in Falster and 17.5 in Kleppe(Norway). The critical number of LD cycles varied correspondingly.While the Central and North European varieties required fewerLD cycles for 50% heading at 18 than at 12°C, Veyoshowed the opposite response. It is concluded that the requirementsfor both primary and secondary induction of Lolium perenne increasewith increasing latitude of origin of the germplasm. In oneexperiment, 3987% of the inflorescences came from tillersthat were not visible on transfer from primary to secondaryinduction, thus it is also concluded that there is no juvenilestage in tillers of Lolium perenne.

A microsomal flavonoid 3'-hydroxylase (F3'H) catalyzing themetabolism of naringenin to eriodictyol in Citrus sinensis (L.)Osbeck cv. Hamlin cell suspension cultures wasshown to be a cytochrome P450 enzyme. This reaction requiredO2 and NADPH and was inhibited by CO, with partial reversalof CO-inhibition by light at 450 nm. Cytochrome P450 contentranged from 1020 pmol (mg microsomal protein)1.The F3'H reaction was shown to be linear in regard to proteinconcentration between 2.5 and 25 µg of microsomal protein.The optimum pH for the reaction was 7.47.6 and the temperatureoptimum was between 30 and 37°C. The apparent Km and Vmaxfor naringenin were 24 µM±3.2 and 81.4±7.9pmol eriodictyol min1 (mg protein)1, respectively.The microsomal F3'H was also capable of forming dihydroquercetinfrom dihydrokaempferol (40 pmol min1 (mg protein)1)and of quercetin from kaempferol (3.25 pmol min1 (mgprotein1). Cytochrome c and ketoconazole were the bestinhibitors of WH activity followed by piperonyl butoxide anda-naphthoflavone. Light was shown to be an inducer of the F3'Halmost doubling the specific activity and increasing the microsomalcytochrome P450 content by 30% over that of dark grown cells.F3'H activity was also confirmed in microsomal preparationsof young (new flush) leaves from Hamlin treesand flavedo of Hamlin oranges, Marshgrapefruit, and Lisbon lemon. No activity wasobserved in older, hardened leaves and albedo of all the fruittested. Initiation of embryogenesis in the Hamlincell suspension cultures by switching from a sucrose mediumto a glycerol-based medium resulted in the down-regulation ofF3'H.

The freezing tolerance of many plants, such as pea (Pisum sativum),is increased by exposure to low temperature or abscisic acidtreatment, although the physiological basis of this phenomenonis poorly understood. The freezing tolerance of pea shoot tips,root tips, and epicotyl tissue was tested after cold acclimationat 2C, dehydration/rehydration, applications of 104M abscisic acid (ABA), and deacclimation at 25C. Tests wereconducted using the cultivar Alaska, an ABA-deficientmutant wil, and its wildtype. Freezinginjury was determined graphically as the temperature that caused50% injury (T50) from electrical conductivity. Endogenous ABAwas measured using an indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbant assay,and novel proteins were detected using 2-dimensional polyacrylamidegel electrophoresis. The maximum decrease in T50 for root tissuewas 1C for all genotypes, regardless of treatment. For Alaskashoot tips and epicotyl tissue, exogenous ABA increased thefreezing tolerance by 1.5 to 4.0C, while coldtreatment increased the freezing tolerance by 7.5 to14.8C. Cold treatment increased the freezing toleranceof shoot tips by 9 and 15C for wiland wild-type, respectively. Cold acclimationincreased endogenous ABA concentrations in Alaskashoot tips and epicotyls 3- to 4-fold. Immunogold labeling increasednoticeably in the nucleus and cytoplasm of the epicotyl after7 d at 2C and was greatest after 30 d at the time of maximumfreezing tolerance and soluble ABA concentration. Cold treatmentinduced the production of seven, three, and two proteins inshoot, epicotyl, and root tissue of Alaska, respectively.In Alaska shoot tissue, five out of seven novelproteins accumulated in response to both ABA and cold treatment.However, only a 24 kDa protein was produced in wiland wild-type shoot and epicotyl tissues aftercold treatment. Abscisic acid and cold treatment additivelyincreased the freezing tolerance of pea epicotyl and shoot tissuesthrough apparently independent mechanisms that both resultedin the production of a 24 kDa protein.

Photosynthetic development of Spinacia oleracea L. (spinach)cells was triggered by halving the supply of sugarto a continuous culture. This was demonstrated between two steadystates at constant specific growth rate (4.2 ± 0.17 x103 h1). As a direct consequence of this triggerthe cells were in conditions of sugar famine, demonstrated byorganic carbon balance. Comparison of the biomass was made betweenthe two steady states. It was found that in sugar famine thebiomass contained 8 times as much chlorophyll and the ratioof photosynthesis to respiration in saturating conditions hadincreased 22 times, when compared to the biomass in conditionof sugar excess. All substrate carbon and organic factors were then removed fromthe fresh medium, carbon dioxide and photosynthetically activeradiation (PAR) were increased. In these photoautotrophic conditionsthree further steady states were established. The effects ofincreasing the dilution rate and then increasing PAR were examined.Growth was found to be limited by PAR. The photosynthetic yield Y of photoheterotrophic spinach cellsin fructose famine was estimated as 0.004 g kJ1 PAR.In photoautotrophic conditions the maximum Y was 0.0018 g kJ1.It was suggested that this lower yield was due to chloroplastdevelopment being arrested by an unknown factor. 相似文献

Nitrate provision has been found to regulate the capacity forChara corallina cells to take up nitrate. When nitrate was suppliedto N sufficient cells maximum nitrate uptake was reached after8 h. Prolonged treatment of the cells in the absence of N alsoresulted in the apparent ability of these cells to take up nitrate.Chlorate was found to substitute partially for nitrate in theinduction step. The effects on nitrate reductionwere separated from those on nitrate uptake by experiments usingtungstate. Tungstate pretreatment had no effect on NO3uptake induced by N starvation, but inhibitedNO3 uptake associated with NO3 pretreatment. Chloridepretreatment similarly had no effect on NO3 uptake inducedby N deprivation, but inhibited NO3 uptake followingNO3 pretreatment. The data suggest that there are atleast two mechanisms responsible for the inductionof nitrate uptake by Chara cells, one associated with NO3reduction and induced by CIO3 or NO3and one associated with N deprivation.

Putrescine, spermidine, and spermine content were analysed inzygotic embryos of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). Changes in polyaminecontent were observed during zygotic embryo growth. In two cultivars,Bomi and Golden Promise, the totalpolyamine content in the embryos was 2.62.9 nmol mg1fresh weight 10 d after anthesis, the highest content observed.It dropped to 1.3 nmol mg1 fresh weight 14 d after anthesis.This drop was caused by decreases in all three polyamine concentrations.From 14 to 35 d after anthesis the putrescine content continuedto decrease while the spermidine and spermine content increased,thus the total polyamine content remained constant until 35d after anthesis. The mutant Ris? 1508 showeda constant polyamine content around 1.3 nmol mg1 freshweight from 14 to 35 d after anthesis. The polyamine patternwas conserved in all three lines throughout the period of investigationshowing a spermidine content higher than putrescine contentwhich was, in turn, higher or equal to the spermine content.The polyamine content measured as nmol µg1 proteindecreased from 14 to 21 d post anthesis in all three lines,because the protein content (µg mg1 fresh weight)increased during the period. In dedifferentiating zygotic embryoscultured in vitro the putrescine content (nmol mg1 freshweight) rose by a factor of nine and the spermidine contentdoubled within the first week of cultivation, whereas sperminecontent did not change. For embryoderived calli a repeated patternof change in polyamine content was observed throughout the subculturingperiod. Key words: Polyamines, Hordeum vulgare L., embryo development 相似文献

Techniques are described for the culture of developing barley(Hordeum vulgare L.) caryopses. Over a 7 d period in culturethe dry weights and the amounts of starch and protein increasedby at least twofold. Growth was sustained for at least 20 d.The effects of glutamine and cysteine on the amount and compositionof the hordein storage proteins were also studied. Glutaminestimulated total hordein accumulation but caused a disproportionateincrease in the amount of the S-poor C hordeinswhen supplied at 100 mol m3. Addition of cysteine at1·0 mol m3 did not increase the amount of SrichB hordeins. The results suggest that althoughisolated caryopses are able to take up sucrose and glutamineand convert them to starch and protein there is some limitationin their ability to convert externally supplied cysteine intoproteins.

Differences in premature leaf abscission and in visible steminjury in genetic lines of poplar followed continuous fumigationswith air pollutant levels of SO2 (90100 nl l1)and O3 (7080 nl l1) either separately or together.The clones used were: Populus deltoides var. missiouriensisMarsh., P. nigra cv. italicd L., and the hybridsP. nigra cv. italica xP. deltoides (He-X/3) andP. nigra cv.italica x P. nigra cv. Serres(He-K/7). While most leaf abscission occurred within 20 d fromthe start of fumigation, stem lesions (intumescences), appearedonly after 72 d. Their anatomical characteristics include theformation of lysigenous aerenchyma in the lower parts of theintumescence, the sloughing of superficial cells from the injuredarea, and the development of crystalline formations on the surfaceof the lesions. P. deltoides exhibited the least morphologicalresponse to the gases. Ethylene released from fumigated leaves was determined at thesame gas concentration of SO2 (100 nl l1), O3 (75 nll1) and their mixture. Leaves of P. deltoides consistentlyshowed the lowest ethylene production after the gas treatments.P. italica production was higher but was littlealtered by the treatments. The two hybrids He-X/3 and He-K/7showed the greatest increases in ethylene evolution with time.With He-K/7 exposed to the gas mixture the production of ethylenedecreased after the initial sharp rise during days 12,and reflected the considerable leaf damage observed after day3. The results suggest that sensitivity to air pollution, (as shownby leaf abscission and the formation of stem intumescences)can be correlated with the level of pollutant-induced ethyleneevolution from leaves. Initially high levels could induce abscission,whilst prolonged production could be responsible for intumescenceinitiation. The discussion proposes a series of events fromSO2 and/or O3 entry into the leaf and the physiological reasonsfor the clonal differences.

Effect of Inorganic Phosphate on the Biosynthesis of Purine and Pyrimidine Nucleotides in Suspension-Cultured Cells of Catharanthus roseus 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
The levels of purine and pyrimidine nucleotides in suspensioncultures of Catharanthus roseus were determined 24 h after stationary-phasecells were transferred to fresh complete (+Pi)or phosphate-deficient (Pi) Murashige-Skoogmedium. The levels of ATP, GTP, UTP and CTP were from approx.3 to 5-fold greater in the cells grown in +Pimedium than in the cells grown in Pi medium.The levels of almost all other nucleotides were slightly higherin the cells in +Pi medium. The rates of de novoand salvage biosynthesis of purine and pyrimidine nucleotideswere estimated from the rates of incorporation of radioactivityfrom [14C]formate, [214C]glycine, NaH14CO3, [614C]orotate,[814C]adenine, [814C]adenosine, [214C]uraciland [214C]uridine. The results indicated that the activityof both the de novo and the salvage pathway was higher in thecells in +Pi medium than in the cells in Pimedium. The rate of degradation estimated from the rate of releaseof 14CO2 from labelled purines and pyrimidines indicated thatdegradation of uridine was significantly reduced in the cellsin +Pi medium, but no significant difference wasfound in the degradation of adenine, adenosine and uracil. Thepossible role of Pi in the control of the biosynthesis of nucleotidesand in the degradation of uridine is discussed.

Effects of kinetin (K), gibberellin A3 (GA3), and 2-(chloroethyl)-trimethylammoniumchloride (CCC) on levels of alanine aminotransferase (GPT) andrates of protein synthesis were studied with both intact plantsand isolated leaf segments of Lolium temulentum L. In intactplants CCC stimulated and CA3 reduced GPT activity, the effectsbsing much greater in 8.h than in 16-h photoporiods. CCC showedmaximum stimulatory effects at 102 M and K at 5 x 105M. No effect of GA3 could be demonstrated with concentrationsup to 104M. Both K and CCC retarded GPT decline in leafsections, the latter without associated effects upon pigmentbreakdown. Cycloheximide was highly effective in reducing proteinsynthesis in leaf sections. A close correlation between rateof protein synthesis and GPT activity was found over an inhibitorconcentration range from 106 to 104 M. The resultsare discussed in terms of possible methods of in vivo regulationof GPT activity. 相似文献

Fully light-intercepting simulated swards of S24 perennial ryegrasswere exposed to contrasting environmental conditions in a growthroom for 4 days. Half experienced 20 h days of 120 Wm2(400700. nm) and 5 °C, and came to have a WSC (watersoluble carbohydrate) content of 235 mg g1 and half 4h days of 20 Wm2 and 25 °C leading to a WSC of 25mg g1. Their rates of CO2 efflux were monitored at anumber of temperatures during an 8 h dark period; half experiencedincreasing (530 °C) and half decreasing (305°C) temperatures. The high WSC swards hadrespiration rates of 3.7 mg CO2 g1 (d. wt) h1at 15 °C, and the low swards 0.8 mg CO2 g1h1. The order in which the temperatures were experiencedwas immaterial. Even the low WSC swards showedno evidence of a respiratory decline during the dark periodthat could be attributed to substrate shortage. The relationshipbetween temperature and CO2 efflux was best represented by logisticcurves. Even so, a Q10 of 2 fitted the data reasonably well,at least up to 20 °C, and has practical advantages wheninterpolating estimated between measured values of respirationin the construction of a carbon balance sheet.

The potential for leaf extension of plants of Lolium perennecv S24 growing in small artificial communities under naturalconditions was measured as the plants progressed from the vegetativeto the reproductive state In two consecutive years, 1975 and 1976, simulated swardswere sown in autumn and overwintered in an open, unheated glasshouseIndividual swards from the batch sown in 1975 were brought into a growth room on two occasions in spring 1976 to measuretheir potential for leaf extension at a range of temperatures(520 °C) Individual swards from the batch sown inautumn 1976 were brought in to the growth room on 15 occasionsbetween November 1976 and May 1977 and their potential for leafextension was measured at a single temperature of 15 °CFrequent dissections were made in both years to describe changesin the developing apex. The potential for leaf extension at 15 °C decreased fromc 17 mm day1 in November to c 10 mm day1 in mid-winter.In January, the potential rapidly increased threefold to reach30mm day1 by mid February The increase began coincidentwith the earliest stages of floral initiation and was completedby the time of double-ridge formation Spring-grown vegetativeplants, however, showed potential rates of < 20 mm day1at 15 °C The results are discussed in relation to reproductive developmentand to changes in the carbohydrate strategy of the plants inearly spring Lolium perenne L perennial ryegrass, leaf extension, temperature response 相似文献

The Sensitivity of Net Photosynthesis in Several Plant Species to Short-term Fumigation with Sulphur Dioxide 总被引:4,自引:0,他引:4
The effects of exposure of up to 2 h with sulphur dioxide ona range of plant species was observed by measuring changes inthe rate of net photosynthesis under closely controlled environmentalconditions. Ryegrass, Lolium perenne S23 was thespecies most sensitive to SO2; significant inhibition was detectedat 200 nl l1. Fumigations at 300 nl l1 also inhibitedphotosynthesis in field bean (Vicia faba cv. Three FoldWhite and Blaze) and in barley (Hordeumvulgare cv. Sonja). No effect was detected inwheat (Triticum aestivum cv. Virtue) at concentrationsup to 600 nl l1 SO2, or in oil-seed rape (Brassica napuscv. Rafal) except at 800 nl l1 SO2). Recoverycommenced immediately after the fumigation was terminated andwas complete within 2 h when inhibition had not exceeded 20%during the SO2 treatment.

Floral buds of the False Horn plantain clonesMusa (AAB) Harton Verde, Harton Negra,and Currare terminate in a large single floralstructure. The apices of these floral buds are here designatedas determinate since they have lost the ability to produce additionalfloral initials or buds. Terminal peduncle segments can be culturedin a modified Murashige and Skoog (1962) medium supplementedwith N6-benzyl-aminopurine (5 mg I1). Under these conditions,this apparent inability to yield buds can be overcome as vegetativeshoot clusters form in the axils of the bracts. Rooted plantletsare obtainable by treating shoots with naphthaleneacetic acid(1 mg I1) and activated charcoal (0.025%). The adventitiousorigin of the shoots has been established.
