The conversion of 1-aminocyclopropane 1-carboxylic acid (ACC) to ethylene by hypocotyl segments of sunflower (Helianthus annuus L.) seedlings was inhibited by abscisic acid (ABA) and methyl jasmonate (Me-Ja), and this inhibitory effect increased with increasing concentration of both growth regulators. On the contrary, CaCl, enhanced ACC conversion to ethylene at the concentrations of 10-4 M and 5 x 10-4 M, however lower and higher concentrations had no significant action. CaCl, (5 x 10-4M) seemed to magnify the inhibition of the reaction induced by ABA, whereas it reduced (5 x 10-4M) and even abolished (10-3M) the inhibitory action of Me-Ja. The results obtained with a Ca2+ chelator (EGTA), a Ca2+ channel blocker (nifedipine) and calmodulin antagonists (W7 and TFP), given in association with ABA or Me-Ja, suggested that calcium was involved in the inhibition of ACC conversion to ethylene by ABA and Me-Ja through an interaction with calmodulin. However, the mechanism of action of the two growth regulators seemed to be different, since all treatments which resulted in a decrease in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration or in calmodulin action induced a decrease in the effect of ABA and an increase in the effect of Me-Ja.Abbreviations ABA abscisic acid - ACC 1-aminocyclopropane 1-carboxylic acid - EFE ethylene for enzyme - EGTA ethylene glycol-bis-2-aminoethyl tetraacetic acid - Me-Ja methyl jasmonate - NIF nifedipine - TFP trifluoperazine dihydrochloride - W7 N-(6-aminohexyl)5-chloro-l-naphthalenesulfonamide hydrochloride  相似文献

Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as a source of reactive oxygen species (ROS) significantly stimulated germination of switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) seeds with an optimal concentration of 20 mM at both 25 and 35°C. For non-dormant switchgrass seeds exhibiting different levels of germination, treatment with H2O2 resulted in rapid germination (<3 days) of all germinable seeds as compared to seeds placed on water. Exposure to 20 mM H2O2 elicited simultaneous growth of the root and shoot system, resulting in more uniform seedling development. Seeds of big bluestem (Andropogon gerardii Vitman) and indiangrass [Sorghastrum nutans (L.) Nash] also responded positively to H2O2 treatment, indicating the universality of the effect of H2O2 on seed germination in warm-season prairie grasses. For switchgrass seeds, abscisic acid (ABA) and the NADPH-oxidase inhibitor, diphenyleneiodonium (DPI) at 20 μM retarded germination (radicle emergence), stunted root growth and partially inhibited NADPH-oxidase activity in seeds. H2O2 reversed the inhibitory effects of DPI and ABA on germination and coleoptile elongation, but did not overcome DPI inhibition of root elongation. Treatment with H2O2 appeared to enhance endogenous production of nitric oxide, and a scavenger of nitric oxide abolished the peroxide-responsive stimulation of switchgrass seed germination. The activities and levels of several proteins changed earlier in seeds imbibed on H2O2 as compared to seeds maintained on water or on ABA. These data demonstrate that seed germination of warm-season grasses is significantly responsive to oxidative conditions and highlights the complex interplay between seed redox status, ABA, ROS and NO in this system.  相似文献

钙调素作为真核细胞的重要信号蛋白,在真核生物正常及逆境条件下的生长发育中发挥着重要作用.研究报道钙调素可促进离体培养的高等动植物细胞的增殖,但有关钙调素蛋白在植物体内的细胞增殖功能尚未见报道.特别是拟南芥基因组中存在7个编码经典钙调素亚型的基因,多数编码基因的功能有待进一步探究.首先借助常用的钙调素拮抗剂W7进行药理学实验,结果表明,野生型拟南芥幼苗根的生长受到了明显的抑制,根尖分生区的面积变小、细胞数目明显减少,根尖分生区中细胞分裂标记基因CYCB1;1的表达受到了明显抑制,这表明在根尖分生区W7可能通过对活性钙调素的抑制作用影响了根尖分生区域的细胞增殖,而根尖分生区正常的细胞增殖需要一定量活性钙调素蛋白的存在.脱落酸(ABA)是植物逆境下的重要激素,在植物种子萌发及幼苗生长发育中发挥着重要作用,W7存在下的拟南芥幼苗对ABA的敏感性下降.借助反向遗传学手段获得了拟南芥中三个编码典型钙调素蛋白基因的三重缺失突变体cam234,蛋白质印迹结果表明三重缺失突变体中钙调素蛋白的含量明显降低.相同培养条件下与野生型相比,三重突变体幼苗根长变短,并且幼苗对ABA敏感性也表现下降趋势,暗示着这三个基因编码的钙调素蛋白可能参与了根分生区域细胞增殖过程及幼苗对脱落酸的敏感性反应,讨论了钙调素的细胞增殖功能及与幼苗对脱落酸的敏感性反应间的关系.  相似文献

Seeds of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. and grains of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) were used to characterize the affects of nitric oxide (NO) on seed dormancy. Seeds of the C24 and Col-1 ecotypes of Arabidopsis are almost completely dormant when freshly harvested, but dormancy was broken by stratification for 3 days at 4°C or by imbibition of seeds with the NO donor sodium nitroprusside (SNP). This effect of SNP on dormancy of Arabidopsis seeds was concentration dependent. SNP concentrations as low as 25 M reduced dormancy and stimulated germination, but SNP at 250 M or more impaired seedling development, including root growth, and inhibited germination. Dormancy was also reduced when Arabidopsis seeds were exposed to gasses that are generated by solutions of SNP. Nitrate and nitrite, two other oxides of nitrogen, reduced the dormancy of Arabidopsis seeds, but much higher concentrations of these were required compared to SNP. Furthermore, the kinetics of germination were slower for seeds imbibed with either nitrate or nitrite than for seeds imbibed with SNP. Although seeds imbibed with SNP had reduced dormancy, seeds imbibed with SNP and abscisic acid (ABA) remained strongly dormant. This may indicate that the effects of ABA action on germination are downstream of NO action. The NO scavenger 2-(4-carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3 oxide (cPTIO) strengthened dormancy of unstratified and briefly stratified Arabidopsis seeds. Dormancy of three cultivars of barley was also reduced by SNP. Furthermore, dormancy in barley grain was strengthened by imbibition of grain with cPTIO. The data presented here support the conclusion that NO is a potent dormancy breaking agent for seeds and grains. Experiments with the NO scavenger suggest that NO is an endogenous regulator of seed dormancy.Abbreviations ABA Abscisic acid - cPTIO 2-(4-Carboxyphenyl)-4,4,5,5-tetramethylimidazoline-1-oxyl-3 oxide - GA Gibberellin - SNP Sodium nitroprusside - NOx Gaseous oxides of nitrogen  相似文献

Effects of camptothecin, a naturally occurring alkaloid, on seed germination varied from promotive to inhibitory, depending on the species used. It markedly inhibited seedling root growth but its inhibition of hypocotyl growth varied among species. Camptothecin inhibited GA3-induced dark germination of lettuce (Lactuca sativa L.) seeds and hypocotyl elongation of seedlings. In contrast to ABA, the camptothecin inhibition of GA3-induced germination could not be overcome by cytokinin. When seeds were germinated at 29C with a 0.5 h light treatment, little or no germination occurred in the camptothecin treatment, but addition of cytokinin overcame this inhibition.  相似文献

In order to investigate the interaction of the plant hormones ethylene, abscisic acid (ABA) and cytokinin in seed germination and early seedling development, we studied germination in ethylene-related mutants of Arabidopsis. Mutations in the genes etr1 and ein2, which reduce ethylene responses, showed increased dormancy and a delay in germination in comparison with wild type. Mutations in etr1, ein2 and ein6 also resulted in increased sensitivity to ABA with respect to inhibition of germination. Conversely, mutations in ctr1 and eto3, which lead to an increased ethylene response and overproduction of ethylene, respectively, decreased sensitivity to ABA during germination. Increased ABA sensitivity was also effected in wild type seeds by the presence during germination of AgNO3, an inhibitor of ethylene action. The addition of the cytokinin N-6 benzyl adenine (BA) reversed the increased sensitivity of ethylene-resistant mutants to ABA. The action of cytokinin in reversing increased ABA sensitivity of ethylene-resistant mutants also suggests that at least part of the action of cytokinin in promoting germination is independent of its role in stimulating ethylene production. These observations further extend the evidence in support of interaction between ethylene, ABA and cytokinin signalling in controlling seed germination and early seedling development in Arabidopsis.  相似文献

Growth of carrot and radish seedlings in nutrient culture was inhibited by pretreatment with three calmodulin inhibitors. There was little selective effect on specific organs, shoots, tap root and fibrous roots over a range of concentrations. Although pretreatment with CaCl2 (0.5 mM) did not affect growth of untreated seedlings, it partially reduced the inhibitory effects of trifluoperazine over the concentration range 0.01–0.05 mM. Trifluoperazine reduced the growth of GA3-treated seedlings but did not overcome the modifying effect of GA3 in favouring shoot/root ratio; ABA exacerbated its inhibitory effect on overall seedling growth and particularly on tap root development.Abbreviations GA3 gibberellic acid - ABA abscisic acid - CaCl2 calcium chloride - GAs gibberellins - Tfp trifluoperazine  相似文献

Abscisic acid (ABA) in extracts of somatic embryos and seeds of Gloryvine (Vitis vinifera L.xV. rupestris Scheele) was measured by gas chromatography-mass spectrometry-selected ion monitoring using deuterated ABA, (±)-[C-3Me-2H3]ABA, ([2H3]ABA) as internal standard. The ABA content increased rapidly during embryogeny (0.035 ng/embryo at the globular stage to 0.22 ng/embryo at the mature stage). The level of ABA in the tissues of somatic embryos, expressed in ng/mg dry weight, decreased from the globular stage (0.76 ng/mg) to the mature stage (0.25 ng/mg). Chilling (4° C) induced normal germination of seeds and mature somatic embryos and precocious germination of globular, heart-shaped and torpedoshaped somatic embryos. In all cases chilling led to a marked reduction in endogenous ABA. Exogenous (±)-ABA inhibited the germination of chilled somatic embryos.Abbreviations ABA abscisic acid - [2H3]ABA (±)-[C-3Me-2H3]-abscisic acid - BHT 2,6-di-t-butyl-4-methylphenol - GC-MS gas chromatography-mass spectrometry - Me-ABA and Me-[2H3]ABA methyl esters of ABA and [2H3]ABA, respectively - SIM selected ion monitoring  相似文献

In the present report, we described the effects of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), zeatin (ZT), gibberellin (GA3), and abscisic acid (ABA) on in vitro pollen germination and pollen tube growth in Torenia fournieri L. The results showed that IAA and GA3 stimulated in vitro pollen tube growth, ABA inhibited pollen tube growth, and ZT had no significant effect on the process. The stimulating effect of exogenous IAA was particularly distinct, and led to synchronous growth of straighter and more slender pollen tubes compared with the controls. However, no significant changes were found in the germination of the treated pollen. The auxin efflux inhibitor, 10 μM 1-N-naphthylphthalamic acid (NPA), was also found to stimulate pollen tube growth. We measured the content of hormones (free IAA, ZT, GA3, and ABA) in the stigmas and styles before and after pollination. The hormone contents of stigmas measured 0.5 h after pollination (0.5 HAP) showed that ABA content decreased, whereas the content of IAA, ZT, or GA3 did not change significantly. The hormone level in pollinated styles (4 HAP) when pollen tubes had grown into the middle part of style was characterized by an increase in free IAA and GA3 and a decrease in ABA, which was in agreement with the results that IAA and GA3 promoted but ABA inhibited pollen tube growth in vitro. Furthermore, the change of IAA level in styles was most notable, which was accordant to the fact that auxin stimulated significantly pollen tube growth in vitro. Using immunoenzyme and immunogold labeling techniques and an anti-IAA monoclonal antibody, we confirmed that free IAA was present throughout style tissues, and distributed in the nucleus and cytoplasm of style cells. All these results suggested that hormones, especially IAA, play important roles in pollen tube growth of T. fournieri.

Two Sites of Hormonal Action during Germination of Chenopodium album Seeds   总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3  
During the overall germination process in the light-requiring seeds of Chenopodium album L. two sites of hormonal action can be distinguished. The start of visible growth is induced in darkness by the gibberellins 4 and 7 (GA4+7) or by ethylene. Added cytokinins are inactive although 8-14C-kinetin shows rapid penetration into the seed and rapid turnover. The induction of growth by GA4+7 and the uptake of 8-methylene-14C-GA3 are enhanced at lower pH values. Prolonged incubation in darkness results in a decreased responsiveness of the seeds towards GA4+7 and ethylene. A second site of hormonal action is located during the progress of growth inside the covering structures. ABA inhibits radicle growth, while GA4+7, GA3, kinetin, zeatin and ethylene reduce the inhibition.  相似文献

Summary Few studies have focused on the effect of a broad range of phytohormones on growth and secondary metabolism of a single hairy root species. We measured growth, development, and production of the antimalarial drug, artemisinin, in Artemisia annua hairy roots in response to the five main hormones: auxins, cytokinins, ethylene, gibberellins (GA), and abscisic acid (ABA). Single roots grown in six-well plates in medium B5 with 0.01 mgl−1 (0.029 μM) GA3 produced the highest values overall in terms of the number of lateral roots, length of the primary root, lateral root tip density, total lateral root length, and total root length. When the total root lengths are compared, the best conditions for stimulating elongation appear to be: GA 0.01 mgl−1 (0.029μM)> ABA 1.0 mgl−1 (3.78μM)=GA 0.02 mgl−1 (0.058μM). Bulk yields of biomass were inversely proportional to the concentration of each hormone tested. All cultures provided with ABA yielded the highest amount of biomass. Both 6-benzylaminopurine and 2-isopentenyladenine inhibited root growth, however, only 2-isopentenyladenine stimulated artemisinin production, more than twice that of the B5 controls, and more than any other hormone studied. These results will prove useful in increasing hairy root growth and artemisinin production.  相似文献

Here we report that glucose delays germination of Arabidopsis thaliana (L.) Heynh. seeds at concentrations below those known to inhibit early seedling development. This inhibition acts on embryo growth and is independent of hexokinase (HXK) function. Hormones and hormone inhibitors were applied to the germination media and several hormone biosynthesis and signalling mutants were tested on glucose media to investigate a possible role of abscisic acid (ABA), gibberellin and ethylene in the glucose-induced germination delay. Results indicate that the germination inhibition by glucose cannot be antagonized by ethylene or gibberellin and is independent of the HXK1/ABA/ABI4 signalling cascade. These findings suggest that there is a separate regulatory pathway independent of ABI2/ABI4/ABI5. Thus, in a relatively short time frame sugars utilize different signalling cascades to inhibit germination and post-germination growth, underlining the complexity of sugar responses.Abbreviations ABA Abscisic acid - ABI ABA insensitive - ACC 1-Aminocyclopropane-1-carboxylic acid - BR Brassinosteroid - CAB Chlorophyll a/b-binding protein - FUS3 Fusca3 - GA Gibberellin - GA 3 Gibberellic acid - HXK Hexokinase - LEC1 Leafy cotyledon1 - RBCS Ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase small subunit - WT Wild type  相似文献

关于中国沙棘克隆生长调节研究目前局限于外在机制,旨在探讨其克隆生长对灌水强度的响应规律及其激素调控的内在机制。结果表明:随着灌水强度的增大,分株生长、克隆繁殖、克隆扩散能力先升后降,IAA(吲哚-3-乙酸)、ZR(玉米素核苷)、GA_3(赤霉酸)含量及其与ABA(脱落酸)的比值先升后降而ABA含量先降后升。同时,分株生长、克隆繁殖、克隆扩散能力与IAA、ZR、GA_3含量以及IAA/ABA、ZR/ABA、GA_3/ABA呈极显著或显著正相关,与ABA含量呈极显著负相关。灌水强度过小或过大,IAA、ZR、GA_3含量以及IAA/ABA、ZR/ABA、GA_3/ABA低而ABA含量高,克隆生长潜力受到抑制,种群以分株小、数量少(分布稀疏)、扩散(水平根延伸和分枝)能力弱为特征,克隆生长格局倾向于"游击型"、种群早衰概率高;灌水强度适宜,IAA、ZR、GA_3含量以及IAA/ABA、ZR/ABA、GA_3/ABA高而ABA含量低,克隆生长潜力得以充分发挥,种群以分株大、数量多(分布密集)、扩散能力强为特征,克隆生长格局倾向于"聚集型"、种群稳定性高。随着灌水强度过小-适宜-过大的连续变化,中国沙棘通过改变激素状况调控克隆生长,从而形成与灌水强度相适应的克隆生长格局连续体"游击型-聚集型-游击型",种群稳定性呈"低-高-低"的连续变化过程。由此可见:灌水强度诱导内源激素发生改变,激素特征调控克隆生长格局,克隆生长格局决定种群稳定性。  相似文献

The homozygous T-DNA mutant of the PP2CA2 gene in Arabidopsis thaliana was identified at DNA and RNA levels. The semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed expression of PP2CA2 was induced by NaCl and ABA. When grown in presence of increasing concentration of exogenous ABA the pp2ca2 mutant showed a significant loss of ABA sensitivity in terms of seed germination, efficiency of post-germination growth and root growth. In presence of all ABA and NaCl concentrations tested the germination percentage of wild-type seeds was lower than that of mutant ppca2 seeds. Furthermore, in the presence of exogenous ABA, the pp2ca2 seeds showed higher germination percentages than wild-type at different stages of development and the pp2ca2 seedlings showed a reduced inhibition of root growth compared with wild-type plants. The above results indicated that the pp2ca2 was an ABA-hyposensitive mutant.  相似文献

Seed development was investigated in kernels of developing wild-type and viviparous (vp-1) Zea mays L. Embryos and endosperm of wild-type kernels began to dehydrate at approx. 35 d after pollination (DAP); viviparous embryos did not desiccate but accumulated fresh weight via coleoptile growth in the caryopses. Concentrations of endogenous abscisic acid (ABA) in the embryo were relatively high early in development, being approx. 150 ng·g-1 fresh weight at 20 DAP. The ABA content declined thereafter, falling to approx. 50 ng·g-1 at 30 DAP. Endosperm ABA content was always low, being less than 20 ng·g-1. There were no differences between wild-type and vp-1 tissues. Immature kernels did not germinate when removed from the ear until late in development. The ability to germinate was correlated with decreasing moisture content in the endosperm at the time of removal; premature drying of immature kernels resulted in greatly increased germination following imbibition. Excised embryos germinated precociously when removed from the endosperm as early as 25 DAP. Such germination could be prevented by treatment with 10-5 M ABA or by lowering the solute potential (s) of the medium with 0.3 M mannitol. Treatment of excised embryos with ABA led to internal ABA concentrations comparable to those in embryos in which germination was inhibited in situ. Mannitol treatment did not have this effect, although water-deficit stress of excised embryos resulted in substantial ABA production. Germinated vp-1 embryos were less sensitive to growth inhibition by ABA or mannitol than germinating wild-type embryos. The vp-1 seedlings were not wilty and their transpiration rates were reduced in response to ABA or water shortage.Abbreviations and symbols ABA abscisic acid - DAP days after pollination - FW fresh weight - vp-1 viviparous genotype - s solute potential  相似文献
