Barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Golf) was cultured using the relative addition rate technique, where nitrogen is added in a fixed relation to the nitrogen already bound in biomass. The relative rate of total nitrogen addition was 0.09 day?1 (growth limiting by 35%), while the nitrate addition was varied by means of different nitrate: ammonium ratios. In 3- to 4-week-old plants, these ratios of nitrate to ammonium supported nitrate fluxes ranging from 0 to 22 μmol g?1 root dry weight h?1, whereas the total N flux was 21.8 ± 0.25 μmol g?1 root dry weight h?1 for all treatments. The external nitrate concentrations varied between 0.18 and 1.5 μM. The relative growth rate, root to total biomass dry weight ratios, as well as Kjeldahl nitrogen in roots and shoots were unaffected by the nitrate:ammonium ratio. Tissue nitrate concentration in roots were comparable in all treatments. Shoot nitrate concentration increased with increasing nitrate supply, indicating increased translocation of nitrate to the shoot. The apparent Vmax for net nitrate uptake increased with increased nitrate fluxes. Uptake activity was recorded also after growth at zero nitrate addition. This activity may have been induced by the small, but detectable, nitrate concentration in the medium under these conditions. In contrast, nitrate reductase (NR) activity in roots was unaffected by different nitrate fluxes, whereas NR activity in the shoot increased with increased nitrate supply. NR-mRNA was detected in roots from all cultures and showed no significant response to the nitrate flux, corroborating the data for NR activity. The data show that an extremely low amount of nitrate is required to elicit expression of NR and uptake activity. However, the uptake system and root NR respond differentially to increased nitrate flux at constant total N nutrition. It appears that root NR expression under these conditions is additionally controlled by factors related to the total N flux or the internal N status of the root and/or plant. The method used in this study may facilitate separation of nitrate-specific responses from the nutritional effect of nitrate.  相似文献

The effect of nitrate availability on characteristics of the nitrate assimilatory system was investigated in N-limited barley (Hordeum valgare L. cv. Golf), grown with the seminal root system split into initially equal-sized halves. The cultures were continuously supplied with nitrate-N at a relative addition rate (RA) of 0.09 day?1, which resulted in relative growth rates (RG) that were ca 85% of those observed under surplus nitrate nutrition. The total N addition was divided between the subroots in ratios of 100:0, 80:20, 70:30, 60:40, and 50:50. For comparison, standard cultures were grown at RAs ranging from 0.03 to 0.18 day?1. Initially, biomass and N partitioning to the subroots responded strongly and proportionally to the nitrate distribution ratio. After 12-14 days no further effect was observed. The Vmax for net nitrate uptake and in vitro nitrate reductase (NR) activity were measured in acclimated plants, i.e., after > 14 days under a certain nitrate regime. In subroots fed from 20 to 100% of the total N addition, Vmax for net nitrate uptake increased slightly, whereas NR activity was unaffected. Uptake and NR activities were insignificant in the 0%-subroot. Uneven nitrate supply to individual subroots had negligible effect on the whole-plant ability for nitrate uptake, and the relative Vmax (unit N taken up per unit N in whole plant tissue and time) remained about 7-fold in excess of the demand set by growth. Balancing nitrate concentrations (the resulting external nitrate concentrations at a certain RA) generally ranged between 2 and 10 μM at growth-limiting RA, both when predicted from uptake kinetics and when actually measured. When comparing split root and standard cultures when acclimated, it appears that uptake and NR activities in roots respond more strongly to over-all nitrate availability than to nitrate availability to individual subroots.  相似文献

To assess the role of endogenous cytokinins in growth and development of Rosa hybrida , their concentrations in bleeding sap and in roots, stem, leaves, axillary shoots and bottom breaks in three stages of development were quantified. Cytokinins were purified by means of immunoaffinity chromatography and HPLC, and identified by retention time, UV spectrum and GC-MS. The major translocation form in the xylem was zeatin riboside (ZR). In all mature tissues, cytokinins of the zeatin-type were predominant, amounting to 80–90% of the total cytokinin concentration. The stems contained high concentrations of cytokinins, probably caused by lateral movement of ZR from the xylem to adjacent stem tissue and the ability of the stem to metabolize cytokinins. In young leaves the contribution of isopentenyl adenine (iP)-type cytokinins to the total cytokinin pool was about 50%, indicating that these leaves might be capable of de novo synthesis of cytokinins. In older leaves, the concentration of an unidentified cytokinin-like compound increased to more than 50% of total cytokinins. This compound, which was also found in the roots, might be a storage form of cytokinins. In young axillary shoots, about 50% of the cytokinins are iP-compounds, suggesting either import of iP-type cytokinins via the phloem or de novo synthesis of cytokinins. In buds forming bottom breaks, ZR and zeatin riboside monophosphate (ZRMP) are the main cytokinins, indicating that these buds receive their cytokinins from the roots.  相似文献

High performance liquid chromatography analysis of immunoaffinity-purified extracts of mycelia of Amanita muscaria, and the Amaranthus bioassay of the eluted fractions, revealed the following seven cytokinins: zeatin, zeatin riboside, zeatin N-9-glucoside, dihydrozeatin, dihydrozeatin riboside, isopentenyl adenine, and isopentenyl adenosine. The decreased growth of aluminum-treated mycelia correlated with a 35% decrease in the total amount of the cytokinins. Among individual cytokinins, zeatin was the most affected, exhibiting a reduction of about 90%. The results are compared with previous investigations of aluminum effects on cytokinins in the mycelia of Lactarius piperatus, whose growth is stimulated by aluminum.Abbreviations ZR zeatin riboside - iPA isopentenyl adenosine - Z zeatin - DHZ dihydrozeatin - iP isopentenyl adenine - DHZR dihydrozeatin riboside - Z-9G zeatin N-9-glucoside - iP-9G isopentenyl N-9-glucoside - HPLC high performance liquid chromatography - DHZRMP dihydrozeatin riboside monophosphate - ZRMP zeatin riboside monophosphate  相似文献

Legumes of the Phaseoleae ( Glycine max L. Merr., Phaseolus coccineus L., P. vulgaris L., Vigna radiata L. Wilczek and V. unguiculata L. Walp.), when grown on 10 m M nitrate, had a low in vitro nitrate reductase (NR) activity in the root compared to the shoot (<15%). In legumes of the Vicieae ( Cicer aerietinum L., Pisum sativum L. and Vicia faba L.), Genisteae ( Lupinus albus L.) and Trifolieae ( Medicago sativa L. and M. truncatula Gaertn.), 30–60% of their total NR activity was in the root. The Phaseoleae had a higher nitrate content in the shoot. Decreasing the nitrate supply increased the relative proportion of NR activity in the root of garden pea ( Pisum sativum ) and wheat but did not alter the predominantly leaf-based assimilation of nitrate in Phaseolus vulgaris. When in vitro NR activity of the pea shoot was compared with the in vivo NR activity and the rate of accumulation of reduced N by this tissue, similar values were obtained. In vitro NR activity of the wheat shoot was 5 times its in vivo NR activity and 12 times its rate of accumulation of reduced N.  相似文献

The influence of nitrate availability on growth of seminal roots, and root cytokinin levels, was studied in barley (Hordeum vulgare L. cv Golf). Nitrate was continuously supplied to initially N-starved seedlings at relative addition rates (RA) of 0.03 to 0.21 per day (standard cultures) or at RA 0.09 per day in split root cultures with the nitrate additions distributed in ratios of 100:0 or 80:20 to the two subroots. Data were collected both during a phase of acclimation (first 10 days of N additions) and in the acclimated stage (>10 days after onset of N additions). Limitation of whole-plant growth was observed at RA <0.15 per day. The lateral root frequency increased with RA in plants of equal chronological age. However, the lateral root frequency was related to root size rather than to RA; roots of uneven age but having comparable total root lengths also had comparable lateral root frequencies. Growth of individual subroots in split root systems during acclimation was proportional to the fraction of the total N addition that was fed to the root. All subroots had comparable relative growth rates in acclimated plants, and their lateral root frequency correlated with total root length in the same manner as in standard cultures. Onset of N additions in a 80:20 split root culture resulted in doublings of zeatin riboside (ZR) levels in shoots and in the “80” root, whereas the response of the “20” root was small. No effect of perturbed nitrate availability on xylem translocation of ZR was observed. The ZR levels remained higher in the “80” root during acclimation but returned to the level of the “20” root after acclimation. Root cytokinin levels and xylem translocation in acclimated standard cultures were unaffected by RA in the lower range but increased at high RA. Arguments for involvement of cytokinins in the nitrate-regulated growth response are discussed.  相似文献

The effects of some nodular cytokinis, zeatin (Z), zeatin riboside (ZR), N62-isopentenyl) adenine (IPA), and N62-isopentenyI) adenosine (IPAS) on nitrate reductase (E.C 1.9.6.1) activity of root nodules ofPhaseolus mungo were investigated. The cytokinis were also tested for their effect on nitrate uptake by nodules. The results show that IPAS is the most effective of all the four cytokinins tested. Z and IPA, which caused higherin vivo activity than ZR and IPAS, stimulated uptake of nitrate by nodules. The other two (ZR and IPAS) while inhibiting uptake showed greaterin vitro activity than Z and IPA. It may be concluded that some cytokinins, in addition to their direct effects on the enzyme, may increase the substrate availability to it, whereas others may have only an direct effect on the enzyme activation or degradation.  相似文献

This study investigated the separate and combined effects of nitrate (NO3 ?) and cytokinin additions on continuous ryegrass regrowth after defoliation and the underlying mechanisms. Our results showed that frequent defoliation reduced the biomass of newly grown leaves and roots, the root soluble carbohydrate contents, the root vitality (an indicator of root absorption capacity), and the leaf contents of NO3 ?, zeatin and zeatin riboside (Z + ZR), and isopentenyl adenine and isopentenyl adenosine (IP + IPA). NO3 ?addition to the roots or leaves increased the biomass of newly grown leaves as well as the leaf contents of NO3 ?, Z + ZR, and IP + IPA without increasing the root-to-shoot delivery of endogenous cytokinin. Interestingly, cytokinin directly added to the leaves also increased the biomass of newly grown leaves and their Z + ZR and IP + IPA contents, suggesting that nitrate-induced leaf cytokinin production mediates the growth-promoting effects of nitrate. We also found that cytokinin had a direct whereas NO3 ? had an indirect effect on the biomass of newly grown leaves. Taken together, our results indicate that leaf cytokinin production induced by NO3 ? absorbed through the roots plays a key role in continuous ryegrass regrowth after defoliation.  相似文献

cNR, cytosolic nitrate reductase
PM-NR, plasma membrane-bound nitrate reductase

Activities of plasma membrane-bound nitrate reductase (PM-NR) and cytosolic nitrate reductase (cNR) in tobacco (Nicotiana tabacum L. cv. Samsun) are regulated differently, depending upon the nitrate supply to the culture medium (in sand culture). The cNR activity of roots was higher at low nitrate concentrations with the maximum at 5 mM nitrate supply and declined to low values beyond 5 mM . In contrast, the PM-NR activity of roots increased with higher nitrate concentrations with the maximum at 25 mM nitrate and clearly decreased only at 40 mM . This high PM-NR activity correlated with a low growth rate and might be one of the responses to excess nitrate. Internal nitrate and total nitrogen content of the tissues, however, showed a relative minimum in shoots and in roots of between 15 and 25 mM external nitrate. With declining PM-NR activities beyond 25 mM external nitrate, the nitrate content in the tissue increased indicating an inverse relationship between tissue nitrate content and root PM-NR activity. In leaves both NR activities (cNR and PM-NR) correlated with the internal nitrate content, but with a different response at low nitrate.  相似文献

The effect of supplying either nitrate or ammonium on nitrate reductase activity (NRA) was investigated in Brassica napus seedlings. In roots, nitrate reductase activity (NRA) increased as a function of nitrate content in tissues and decreased when ammonium was the sole nitrogen source. Conversely, in the shoots (comprising the cotyledons and hypocotyl), NRA was shown to be independent of nitrate content. Moreover, when ammonium was supplied as the sole nitrogen source, NRA in the shoots was surprisingly higher than under nitrate supply and increased as a function of the tissue ammonium content. Under 15 mM of exogenous ammonium, the NRA was up to 2.5-fold higher than under nitrate supply after 6 d of culture. The NR mRNA accumulation under ammonium nutrition was 2-fold higher than under nitrate supply. The activation state of NR in shoots was especially high compared with roots: from nearly 80% under nitrate supply it reached 94% under ammonium. This high NR activation state under ammonium supply could be the consequence of the slight acidification observed in the shoot tissue. The effect of ammonium on NRA was only observed in cotyledons and when more than 3 mM ammonium was supplied. No such NRA increase was evident in the roots or in foliar discs. Addition of 1 mM nitrate under ammonium nutrition halved NRA and decreased the ammonium content in shoots. Thus, this unusual NRA was restricted to seedling cotyledons when nitrate was lacking in the nitrogen source.  相似文献

Effect of glutamine on the induction of nitrate reductase   总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5  
Nitrate reductase (NR. EC 1.6.6.1/2) is a substrate inducible enzyme that could be repressed by its end product glutamine or amino acids. To test this hypothesis, 6-day-old maize seedlings ( Zea mays cv. W64A × W182E) were grown hydroponically in a 1/10 strength Hougland's salt solution modified to contain no nitrogen. Previous experiments had established that after a 24-h induction with NO3 (5 mM KNO3) the level of NR activity and protein had reached a constant level. In the present experiments when glutamine (5 mM) was included together with NO3, there was a significant reduction in NR activity (34% of the control values). NR protein and NR mRNA accumulation in the root. In the shoot, on the other hand, glutamine additions had little or no effect on the levels of either NR activity (81% of control) or NR protein. Inhibition of glutamine synthetase by methionine sulfoximine (MSX) resulted in reduced levels of glutamine in both root and shoot tissues. Contrary in our prediction, however, it had no effect on NR activity and mRNA content in roots. In the shoot, on the other hand, there was a marked reduction of NR activity (34% of the control value) and NR protein, but no apparent effect on NR mRNA. When detached shoots were treated with MSX and other inhibitors of glutamine synthetase (tabtoxinine-β-lactam or phosphinothricin) the induction of NR activity by NO3 was also inhibited. Glutamine additions 15 or 50 mM to detached shoots had essentially no effect on the induction of NR activity (90% of control). These results demonstrate that the influence of glutamine and MSX on the induction of NR in maize root and shoot tissues, respectively, is very different.  相似文献

Experiments were performed on the first and second internodes and 4-cm-long apical segments of main roots of pea (Pisum sativum L.) seedlings, grown in the light and decapitated above the second node on the seventh day after seed germination. Endogenous phytohormones were measured by the enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay during three days after decapitation of seedlings. The IAA level in the internodes decreased 2–3 times on the second day after decapitation of seedlings while the cytokinin level increased 5–6 times for zeatin and zeatin riboside (Z and ZR) and 1.5–2 times for isopentenyl adenine and isopentenyl adenosine (IP and IPA). In contrast to internodes, the IP and IPA contents in the roots of decapitated seedlings did not change, but the levels of Z and ZR increased 1.5–2 times compared to intact plant roots. The IAA level in the apical region of root remained almost unchanged after the removal of shoot apex. It was concluded that the apical meristem of the main root is not the site of the cytokinin response to the auxin signal coming from the stem apex and that a slight accumulation of Z and ZR after decapitation is due to upper zones of the root. There was no difference in the content of gibberellin-like substances between the internodes of intact and decapitated seedlings. However, the content of gibberellins (GA) in the root tip decreased after decapitation of seedling, which suggests an essential role of apical bud in supplying the root with GA and/or intermediates for their biosynthesis.  相似文献

Barley (Hordeum vulgare L., cvs Golf and Laevigatum) was grown under nitrogen limitation, controlled by the relative rate of nitrate-N addition (RA), in solution culture. The seminal and crown root systems were kept apart, but in contact with the same nutrient solution throughout culturing. Growth, nitrate uptake, and in vitro nitrate reductase (NR) activity in the different root parts were studied at plant ages from 40 (late vegetative stage) to 110 (mid grain-filling) days. The RA was during this time interval stepwise decreased from 0.08 day–1 to 0.005 day–1. The ratio between seminal root dry weight and total plant dry weight decreased drastically during post-anthesis growth, whereas the contribution by crown roots remained unchanged. Tissue nitrogen concentrations in seminal roots did not change with time, but decreased in crown roots after day 80. The NR activity decreased with age in both seminal and crown roots. The Vmax for net nitrate uptake decreased throughout the experiment in the seminal root system, but not in the crown root system. The kinetic properties (Vmax and KM) were used to calculate the nitrate concentration required to maintain a relative rate of nitrate-N uptake that equals the relative addition rate. These concentrations (2 to 5 mmol m–3) were found to closely match actually measured nitrate concentrations in the nutrient solution (1 to 6 mmol m–3). From uptake kinetics, it was deduced that the contribution by seminal roots to total nitrate uptake at these concentrations decreased from more than 50% in vegetative plants, to about 20% just after main shoot anthesis, and to less than 5% during grain-filling. ei]Section editor: H Lambers  相似文献

Involvement of cytokinins (CKs) in axillary bud growth of miniature rose was studied. Variation in root formation and axillary bud growth was induced by two indole 3-butyric acid (IBA) pretreatments in two cutting sizes. At six physiological developmental stages around the onset of axillary bud growth, concentrations of CKs were determined in both root and axillary bud tissue by liquid chromatography combined with electrospray tandem mass spectrometry (LC-ESP-MS/MS). Chronological early onset of axillary bud growth occurred in long cuttings pretreated at low IBA concentration, whereas physiological early root formation was associated with long cuttings and high IBA concentration. The CKs zeatin (Z), isopentenyl adenine (iP), zeatin riboside (ZR), dihydrozeatin riboside (DHZR), isopentenyl adenosine (iPA), zeatin O-glucoside (ZOG), zeatin riboside O-glucoside (ZROG), zeatin riboside 5-monophosphate (ZRMP), and isopentenyl adenosine 5-monophosphate (iPAMP) were detected. Concentrations of CKs in axillary bud tissue far exceeded those in root tissue. Indole 3-butyric acid pretreatment influenced the concentration of CKs in axillary bud tissue more than did cutting size, whereas pretreatments only slightly affected CKs in root tissue. The dominant CKs found were iPAMP and ZR. An early and large increase in iPAMP indicated rapid CK biosynthesis in rootless cuttings, suggesting that green parts, including the axillary bud, can synthesize CKs. At the onset of axillary bud growth an increase in concentration of Z, ZR, ZRMP, ZOG, and ZROG was largely coincident with a decrease in iPAMP, iPA, iP, and DHZR. After the onset of axillary bud growth, CK content largely decreased. These results strongly indicate a positive role for CKs in axillary bud growth, and presumably ZRMP, ZR, and Z are active in miniature rose.  相似文献

The relationship between availability of external nitrate and N translocation between root and shoot was studied in N-limited barley ( Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Golf). Nitrate-N was added at a relative rate (i.e. N added per unit time and unit N in plant biomass) of (1.09 da-1, and distributed between the subroots at ratios of 50:50 or 80:20. The plants were grown for 13 days under these conditions of nitrate nutrition, and for another three days with the nitrate distribution reversed from 80:20 to 20:80. The nitrale-N doses thus experienced by individual subroots ranged from 2 to 11 mg N g-1 root dry weight day-1 . 15N-Nitrate labellings were performed after 2 to 3 and 12 to 13 days of nitrate nutrition. and 2 to 3 days after reversal of nitrate additions. For all treatments, between 60 and 82% of the absorbed label initially left the root, and between 25 and 55% of the label recovered in roots had been supplied (cycled) via the shoot. Labelling of xylem N at the end of the 24-h labelling period ranged from to 36 to 46% indicating that a substantial fraction of the N in the xylem had been absorbed by the plant prior to labelling. It is concluded that cycling of N to roots, and cycling of N in the plant as a whole, is substantial also during N-limited growth. N allocation to roots increased with external nitrate dose. An increased utilization of non-translocated N as well as an increased translocation of N from the shoot contributed to this effect. Thus, the results indicate that increased external availability of N also increased the sink strength of the root for cycling N.  相似文献

Increased-branching mutants of garden pea (Pisum sativum; ramosus [rms]) and Arabidopsis (Arabidopsis thaliana; more axillary branches) were used to investigate control of cytokinin export from roots in relation to shoot branching. In particular, we tested the hypothesis that regulation of xylem sap cytokinin is dependent on a long-distance feedback signal moving from shoot to root. With the exception of rms2, branching mutants from both species had greatly reduced amounts of the major cytokinins zeatin riboside, zeatin, and isopentenyl adenosine in xylem sap compared with wild-type plants. Reciprocally grafted mutant and wild-type Arabidopsis plants gave similar results to those observed previously in pea, with xylem sap cytokinin down-regulated in all graft combinations possessing branched shoots, regardless of root genotype. This long-distance feedback mechanism thus appears to be conserved between pea and Arabidopsis. Experiments with grafted pea plants bearing two shoots of the same or different genotype revealed that regulation of root cytokinin export is probably mediated by an inhibitory signal. Moreover, the signaling mechanism appears independent of the number of growing axillary shoots because a suppressed axillary meristem mutation that prevents axillary meristem development at most nodes did not abolish long-distance regulation of root cytokinin export in rms4 plants. Based on double mutant and grafting experiments, we conclude that RMS2 is essential for long-distance feedback regulation of cytokinin export from roots. Finally, the startling disconnection between cytokinin content of xylem sap and shoot tissues of various rms mutants indicates that shoots possess powerful homeostatic mechanisms for regulation of cytokinin levels.  相似文献

Changes in endogenous cytokinin content and cytokinin oxidase activity were characterized in leaf explants from two Petunia hybrida Vilm. genetic lines which differed in their shoot organogenic response to exogenous N6-benzyladenine (BA). Endogenous cytokinin content in leaf explants of the highly shoot organogenic line, St40, increased 1.7-fold during the shoot induction phase (days 6–10) and had an additional 2.6-fold cytokinin increase correlated with the shift from induction to the shoot development phase. The cytokinins isopentenyl adenine (iP) and isopentenyl adenosine (iPAR) increased, while the cytokinins zeatin, zeatin riboside and dihydrozeatin remained at consistently low levels. In contrast, isoprenoid cytokinins did not accumulate in petunia TLV1 leaf explants which were incapable of shoot induction during 12 days of culture with BA. Cytokinin oxidase activity continuously increased in leaf explants of both petunia genotypes in response to BA, with a larger increase in St40. These results suggest that the differences in organogenic response in the two petunia genotypes may be the result of differences in BA uptake and metabolism which subsequently affects the accumulation of isoprenoid cytokinins and the activity of cytokinin oxidase in the early stages of shoot development.  相似文献

Spring barley ( Hordeum vulgare L. cv. Golf) was grown at different nitrate supply rates, controlled by using the relative addition rate technique, in order to elucidate the relationship between nitrate-N supply and root and shoot levels of abscisic acid (ABA). The plants were maintained as (1) standard cultures where nitrate was supplied at relative addition rates (RAs) of 0.03, 0.09 and 0.18 day−1, and (2) split-root cultures at RA 0.09 day−1 but with the nitrate distributed between the two root parts in ratios of 100:0, 80:20 and 60:40. Time-dependent changes in root and shoot concentrations of ABA (determined by radioimmunoassay using a monoclonal antibody) were observed in both standard and split-root cultures during 12 days of acclimation to the different nitrate regimes. However, the ABA responses were similar at all nitrate supply rates. Further experiments were performed with split-root cultures where the distribution of nitrate between the two root parts was reversed from 80:20 to 20:80 so that short-term effects to local perturbations of nitrate supply could be studied without altering whole-plant N absorption. Transient increases in ABA concentrations (maximum of 25 to 40% after 3 to 4 h) were observed in both subroot parts, as well as in xylem sap and shoot tissue. By pruning the root system it was demonstrated that the change in ABA had its origin in the subroot part receiving the increased nitrate supply (i.e. switched from 20 to 80% of the total nitrate supply). The data indicate that ABA responses are easily transmitted between different organs, including transmission from one set of seminal roots to another via the shoot. The data do not provide any indication that long-term nitrate supplies or general nitrogen status of barley plants affect, or are otherwise related to, the average tissue ABA concentrations of roots and shoots.  相似文献
