Occurrence of Amoebae on Oak Leaf Lettuce (Lactuca sativa var. crispa) and Boston Lettuce (L. sativa var. capitata)1

The colonization, distribution, population density, and species diversity of amoebae on leaves of Oak Leaf lettuce, Lactuca sativa var. crispa, and Boston lettuce, L. sativa var. capitata, were investigated. The role of soil in the colonization of Oak Leaf lettuce was determined by comparing numbers of amoebae present on basal leaves (those that pass through soil) with numbers on wrapped leaves (those that do not pass through soil). Amoebae were present in ten samples of basal leaves and ranged from 154–1510/g of leaf tissue. Wrapped leaves failed to yield amoebae in seven of ten trials and contained <4 amoebae/g of tissue. Mean values for the population density of amoebae on Oak Leaf basal leaves and Boston lettuce leaves were 484 ± 133 and 453 ± 93, respectively. The distribution of amoebae on green and white parts of leaves from both kinds of lettuce was studied. The occurrence of amoebae on rinsed, unrinsed, visibly clean, and visibly dirty samples of Boston lettuce leaves was established.

Semi-High Throughput Screening for Potential Drought-tolerance in Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) Germplasm Collections

This protocol describes a method by which a large collection of the leafy green vegetable lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) germplasm was screened for likely drought-tolerance traits. Fresh water availability for agricultural use is a growing concern across the United States as well as many regions of the world. Short-term drought events along with regulatory intervention in the regulation of water availability coupled with the looming threat of long-term climate shifts that may lead to reduced precipitation in many important agricultural regions has increased the need to hasten the development of crops adapted for improved water use efficiency in order to maintain or expand production in the coming years. This protocol is not meant as a step-by-step guide to identifying at either the physiological or molecular level drought-tolerance traits in lettuce, but rather is a method developed and refined through the screening of thousands of different lettuce varieties. The nature of this screen is based in part on the streamlined measurements focusing on only three water-stress indicators: leaf relative water content, wilt, and differential plant growth following drought-stress. The purpose of rapidly screening a large germplasm collection is to narrow the candidate pool to a point in which more intensive physiological, molecular, and genetic methods can be applied to identify specific drought-tolerant traits in either the lab or field. Candidates can also be directly incorporated into breeding programs as a source of drought-tolerance traits.

Characterisation of the High Temperature Inhibition of Germination of Lettuce (Lactuca sativa)

Lactuca sativa L., lettuce (Arctic King) fruit germination is inhibited in the light at temperatures above 27^°C(±1.5^°). This value, which is precise and repeatable is referred to as the upper temperature cut-off point, and is characteristic for a particular species. It was found, that this cut-off point is shifted upwards by applying kinetin solutions (0.1–1 mg/1) or downwards by applying (±)-abscisic acid solutions (over 1 mg/1), the amount of shift being proportional to the level of active compound. In the presence of both compounds a balance was achieved. Effects of stimulators and inhibitors can most explicitly be described by reference to the direction and magnitude of the shift in the upper temperature cut-off point, which results from their application.     

Protein Changes Associated with Auxin-Induced Stimulation and Kinetin-Induced Inhibition of Lateral Root Initiation in Lettuce (Lactuca sativa) Roots

Protein changes associated with hormonal regulation of lateralroot initiation in lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) roots were examined.Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) stimulates the induction of lateralroots (Maclsaac, Sawhney, and Pohorecky, 1989) and this wasaccompanied by an increase in soluble proteins as well as thesynthesis of several polypeptides, including specific polypeptidesof 32 and 31 kD. The synthesis of these polypeptides coincidedwith the onset of cell division in the pericycle of NAA-treatedroots. Application of cycloheximide at different times showedthat NAA-induced protein synthesis is essential for the initiationand development of lateral root primordia. Kinetin inhibitedthe formation of lateral roots as well as the level of solubleproteins in NAA-treated roots. In addition, kinetin-treatedroots contained 22 and 21 kD polypeptides not found in othertreatments. This study suggests that the mechanisms of NAA-stimulationand kinetin-inhibition of lateral root initiation are probablydifferent. Key words: Lactuca sativa, lateral roots, proteins     

Leaf traits as indicators of limiting growing conditions for lettuce (Lactuca sativa)

Lettuce growth under unstressed conditions was compared to growth under four limiting conditions, i.e. no phosphorus fertilization (0_P), no nitrogen fertilization (0_N), low light (LR) and water stress (WR) over two different growing periods. We investigated the adaptive changes in terms of the morphological and physiological leaf traits, identifying stress‐specific and ‘stable’ indicators suitable for use in breeding programmes. The plants subjected to the WR treatments had lower leaf expansion and specific leaf area (SLA), as well as lower soil–plant analysis development (SPAD) values, stomatal conductance (POR), water index (WI) and leaf temperature (TIR) compared with plants in the unstressed CONTROL. Low light increased the leaf area (LA), SLA and leaf mass ratio (LMR). The 0_N treatment induced a general reduction in the normalised difference vegetation index (NDVI) values, as well as strong changes in LMR and SLA. In general, 0_P induced less pronounced effects than the other treatments. Principal component analysis indicated that the stable and suitable selection indicators of adaptive changes for low nitrogen and low light conditions were LA, SLA, leaf area per unit total plant mass (LAR), LMR, SPAD and POR, while SPAD, POR, TIR and WI were suitable indicators for drought.     

Cell-Wall Autohydrolysis in Isolated Endosperms of Lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.)

Cell walls prepared from the endosperm tissue of hydrated lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) seeds undergo autohydrolysis. Release of carbohydrates is most rapid (0.4-0.6 [mu]g per endosperm) within the 1st h of incubation in buffer, but substantial autolysis is sustained for at least 10 h. Autolysis is temperature sensitive, and the optimum rate occurs at pH 5. The rate of autolysis increases markedly in the period just prior to radicle emergence. The cell-wall polysaccharide composition in micropylar and lateral endosperm regions differs significantly; the micropylar walls are rich in arabinose and glucose with substantially lower amounts of mannose. Although walls prepared from both micropylar and lateral regions undergo autolysis, micropylar walls release carbohydrates at a higher rate than lateral walls. Autolysis products elute as large polymers when subjected to size-exclusion chromatography, suggesting that endo-enzyme activity is responsible for release of fragments containing arabinose, galactose, mannose, and uronic acids. Arabinose, galactose, mannose, and glucose are also released as monomers. As a function of time, the ratio of polymers to monomers decreases, indicating that exo-enzyme activity is also present. Thermoinhibition or treatment with abscisic acid suppresses germination and reduces the rates of autolysis of walls isolated from the endosperm by about 25%. Treatments that alleviate thermoinhibition (kinetin and gibberellic acid) increase the rates of autolysis by 20 to 30% when compared to thermoinhibited controls.     

Release of Esterase Following Germination of Lettuce Seed (Lactuca sativa L.)

Light-insensitive lettuce seeds, Lactuca sativa L. cv. Great Lakes, release esterases for a period following radicle protrusion. Very little or no enzymes are released prior to 24 hours or after 48 hours of germination. As compared to intact seeds, half-seeds readily release esterases and the release is not affected by far red irradiation. Bulk of the released esterases are derived from the endosperm tissue and presumably exists in the intact seed as a component of the extraembryonic fluid.
