Freezing tolerance was induced in microspore derived embryos of winter Brassica napus cv. Jet neuf by the addition of ABA or mefluidide to the culture media during embryogenesis. Survival after freezing was estimated by culture of frozen-thawed embryos to plantlets. A higher freezing tolerance (50% survival at –15°C) was induced when 50 M ABA or 3.2 M mefluidide was incorporated initially into the medium during embryogenesis at 25°C followed by culture at 2°C for 3 weeks. When embryos were induced in the absence of ABA or mefluidide and maintained at 2°C for even as long as 12 weeks a lower degree of freezing tolerance (10% survival at –15°C) was obtained. Plants regenerated from embryos hardened maximally by a combination of either ABA or MFD with low temperature did not require further vernalization for flowering.Abbreviations ABA abscisic acid - MFD mefluidide - 2,4-D 2,4-dichlorophenoxyacetic acid - LT50 killing temperature for 50% of the embryos  相似文献

Summary Nitrosoguanidine-induced, stable theromotolerant mutant (ZMI2) ofZymomonas mobilis ZM4 was found to possess almost normal cell morphology, and a better ethanol tolerance at 42°C than the parent strain (ZM4). Its kinetic parameters, in converting different concentrations of glucose to ethanol, were comparable to ZM4 at 30°C, and significantly superior at 42°C. In a 200 g/L glucose medium in a pH-stat (5.0) at 42°C, the mutant yielded more ethanol (71.0 g/L) (improved to 73.7 g/L at pH 5.5) and alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) than the parent strain. The ADH levels in both the strains were repressed, depending upon the increased level of sugar and degree of temperature.  相似文献

Summary Growth of Candida valida on ethanol in pH-auxostat and chemostat has been studied. Maximal growth rate, m, and cell biomass yield, Y s, display the Arrhenius dependence on temperature within the ranges 18°–30° C and 30°–36° C and an abrupt fall above 36° C. The temprature dependence of both parameters has breaks at 30° C and 36° C. Activation energies have been measured for both m and Y s. The reason for a weaker effect of temperature on Y s than on m is discussed.  相似文献

Summary Zymomonas mobilis, strain ATCC 10988, was used to evaluate the effects of pH (5.0 to 8.0), temperature (30°C to 40°C), and initial glucose concentration (75 g/l to 150 g/l) on the kinetics of ethanol production from glucose using batch fermentation. Specific ethanol production rate was maximum and nearly constant over a pH range of 6.0 to 7.5. End-of-batch ethanol yield and specific growth rate were insensitive to pH in the range of 5.0 to 7.5. End-of-batch ethanol yield was maximum and nearly constant between 30°C and 37°C but decreased by 24% between 37°C and 40°C. All other kinetic parameters are greatest at 34°C. End-of-batch ethanol yield is maximum at an initial glucose concentration of 100 g/l. Specific growth rate reaches a maximum at 75 g/l, but specific ethanol production rate decreases throughout the range. The optimum initial glucose concentration of 100 g/l gives the highest ethanol yield at a specific ethanol production rate less than 10% below the maximum observed.  相似文献

Summary Unusually low culture temperature, such as 20°C, was shown to be preferable for the synthesis of active human interferon- (IFN-) inE. coli harboring a recombinant plasmid. TheE. coli cells cultured at 20°C gave 8.6-fold higher IFN- activity than those cultured at 37°C. However, almost the equal amounts of IFN- protein were accumulated in both cells cultured at 20°C and at temperature higher than 20°C, suggesting that IFN- might exist as an active form in the cells cultured at 20°C, while as a rather denatured form in the cells cultured at higher temperature.  相似文献

The relation between the quantum yield of oxygen evolution of open photosystem II reactions centers (p), calculated according to Weis and Berry (1987), and non-photochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence of plants grown at 19°C and 7°C was measured at 19°C and 7°C. The relation was linear when measured at 19°C, but when measured at 7°C a deviation from linearity was observed at high values of non-photochemical quenching. In plants grown at 7°C this deviation occurred at higher values of non-photochemical quenching than in plants grown at 19°C. The deviations at high light intensity and low temperature are ascribed to an increase in an inhibition-related, non-photochemical quenching component (qI).The relation between the quantum yield of excitation capture of open photosystem II reaction centers (exe), calculated according to Genty et al. (1989), and non-photochemical quenching of chlorophyll fluorescence was found to be non-linear and was neither influenced by growth temperature nor by measuring temperature.At high PFD the efficiency of overall steady state electron transport measured by oxygen-evolution, correlated well with the product of q N and the efficiency of excitation capture (exe) but it deviated at low PFD. The deviations at low light intensity are attributed to the different populations of chloroplasts measured by gas exchange and chlorophyll fluorescence and to the light gradient within the leaf.Abbreviations F0 basic fluorescence - F0 basic fluorescence, thylakoid in energized state - Fm maximal fluorescence - Fm maximum fluorescence in energized state - Fs steady state fluorescence - Fv maximal variable fluorescence - PFD photon flux density - PS IIrc Photosystem II reaction center - qF0 quenching of basic fluorescence - qE energy related quenching - qN non-photochemical quenching:-qf-total quenching - qI inhibition-related quenching - qp photochemical quenching - qr quenching due to state transition - Rd dark respiration - p PS II efficiency of excitation capture of open PS IIrc - pe extrapolated minimal value of p - p0 extrapolated maximal value of p - si quantum efficiency of linear electron transport, calculated from gas exchange measurements based on incident light - sf quantum efficiency of linear electron transport, calculated from fluorescence measurements, based on incident measuring light  相似文献

Summary Two strains of Zymomonas mobilis were tested for their ability to ferment sucrose to ethanol at elevated temperatures (30–42.5°C). The optimal temperature for efficient sucrose to ethanol conversion was 35°C with 22–27 h fermentation time and 75% conversion efficiency. Increases in magnesium concentration improved one of the strains at 40°C from 38 to 76% ethanol yield efficiency.  相似文献

Summary Constitutive, cell free enzyme extracts derived from two strains of Arthrobacter sp. SB 3 and SB 4 hydrolyzed malathion and exhibited Km values of 1.3 and 2.0 mol/mg protein.min respectively. These two enzyme extracts had a broad pH optimum (6–9), a temperature optimum of 25 °C and 36 °C and were not strongly affected by high salt or solvent concentrations (up to 5%).  相似文献

Bean plants Phaseolus vulgaris L. (cv. Carioca and Negro Huasteco) and Vigna unguiculata L. Walp (cv. Epace-10) were grown in a growth chamber with a photosynthetic photon flux density of 200 mol m–2 s–1 at leaf level and air temperature of 25+1 °C. Fully expanded, first pair leaves of 12-d-old plants were submitted for 90 min to high temperature (25, 30, 35, 40, 45, and 48 °C). Chlorophyll a fluorescence parameters (ETR, qP, qN, and F0) were investigated using a modulated fluorimeter at 25 °C during recovery considered here as 48 h after stress induction period. An accentuated decrease in qP and an increase in qN at 48 °C in Carioca and Negro Huasteco was not observed in Epace-10. In response to excitation irradiance a great potential for ETR was found in Negro Huasteco at 25 °C, also demonstrated by net photosynthetic rate. At 48 °C ETR was high for Epace-10 while it was equal to zero for Carioca and Negro Huasteco. Tolerance to high temperature observed in Epace-10 provided important information about the adaptative characteristics of Vigna cultivars to warm climates.  相似文献

Summary The kinetic behaviour of Zymomonas mobilis is studied at temperatures from 27 °C to 34.5 °C. Increases of temperature (above a critical value) have a negative effect on the yield of ethanol, mainly by raising the maintenance coefficient. Cell growth is less inhibited by the ethanol accumulation inside the cell than is the fermentative pathway. The specific rate of ethanol production is depressed when the intracellular ethanol concentration is maximal. An increase of temperature enhances this phenomenon.  相似文献

Summary A total of 55 yeast strains selected from 7 genera known to ferment carbohydrates to ethanol were screened for their ability to ferment glucose to ethanol in shaken flask culture at 37°, 40° and 45°C. Yields of more than 50% of the theoretical maximum were obtained with 28 strains at 37°C, but only 12 at 40°C. Only 6 could grow at 45°C, but they produced poor yields. In general Kluyveromyces strains were more thermotolerant than Saccharomyces and Candida strains, but Saccharomyces strains produced higher ethanol yields. The 8 strains with the highest yields at 40°C were evaluated in batch fermentations. Three of these, two Saccharomyces and one Candida, were able to meet minimum commercial targets set at 8% (v/v) ethanol from 14% (w/v) glucose at 40°C.  相似文献

The optimum temperature for fermentation by Saccharomyces uvarum was found to be higher than that for its growth. Fermentation continued at temperatures above the growth maximum (40°C). S.uvarum was most resistant to growth inhibition by ethanol at temperatures 5°C and 10°C below its growth optimum (35°C). Fermentation became more resistant to ethanol inhibition with increasing temperature.  相似文献

Summary Production of tryptophan by a temperature sensitive recombinant microorganism (Escherichia coli W3110 trpLDtrpR ts tna (pCRT185)) was investigated. In a single-stage continous culture, at an elevated temperature, 42°C (derepressed condition), tryptophan concentration increased in an early phase of the fermentation, and then gradually decreased with time. The reduction in the production rate was mostly due to the segregation of the plasmid and subsequent increase of plasmid-free cells. However, the plasmid could be maintained stable at 37°C, with repressed condition oftrp-operon, over 200 generations. A two-stage continuous culture system, i.e. cell growth was maintained in the first stage at 37°C and gene expression was induced in the second stage at 42°C, was therefore tested to improve the performance of the fermentation system. Operation of the two-stage system showed that the plasmid stability was significantly improved, and the specific rate of tryptophan production was maintained almost constant for more than 500 hours in the second stage.  相似文献

Summary The nature and amounts of by-products formed during conversion of sugar beets to ethanol byZ. mobilis in Conventional Submerged Fermentation (CSF) and Solid-State Fermentation (SSF) were investigated. It was found that the bacterium produced fewer by-products in SSF than CSF, and that by-products profile was different. The influence of fermentation temperature on synthesis of by-products in SSF was also studied. High fermentation temperature favoured sorbitol synthesis and low fermentation temperature the synthesis of levan. The best results were obtained at 35°C. An ethanol yield of up to 95% of the theoretical value with final ethanol concentration of 142 g/L were obtained.  相似文献

Chl fluorescence of mature leaves in low-temperature treated plants was studied under identical measuring conditions in a segregating population of the F3 offspring of a cross between a chilling-tolerant and a chilling-sensitive tomato species. Through recombination of genes involved in photosynthesis, the population revealed a wide, continuous variability of photosynthetic capacity from plants performing much worse to those performing better than the parental lines of the cross. In the parental species, a nearly linear correlation was observed between photochemical chl fluorescence quenching (qP) and O2 evolution over a wide temperature range. Across the F3 generation, still a weak correlation between the two parameters was found at 20 °C, but not at 10 °C, when measured under identical conditions. This indicates that the fraction of open reaction centres could at least in part be adjusted to the photosynthetic capacity of the individual genotype. However, the correlation was so weak, that the previously suggested use of qP as a selection criterion for chilling tolerance of photosynthesis in breeding programs is regarded as doubtful, as long as photosynthesis rates are not measured in addition. Quantum efficiency of Photosystem II (PSII) was strongly dependent on qP both at 20 and at 10 °C measuring temperature and depended on the quantum efficiency of open reaction centres (Fv/Fm) at 20, but not at 10 °C. Fv/Fm, in turn, correlated negatively with the processes of energy dissipation by the mechanisms of non-photochemical quenching (qN), i.e. its fast-relaxing component (qF) and photoinhibitory quenching (qI).  相似文献

The gases and chars produced during fast pyrolysis of maize stalk, rice straw, cotton straw and rice husk at temperatures ranging from 600 to 1000 °C were studied by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, non-dispersive infrared technique, thermal conductivity detection method, ultimate analysis, X-ray diffraction, helium density measurement and N2 adsorption method. The gas yield increased by more than 80% from 600 to 1000 °C, while the char and liquid yield decreased. The content of CO2, CO and CH4 accounted for more than 86%. The CO and CH4 content increased with temperature, while the CO2 content decreased. The hydroxyl, aliphatic CH, carbonyl, olefinic CC and ether groups were lost above 800 °C. Carbon skeleton shrinkage increased by more than 23% when the temperature increased from 600 to 1000 °C. Maximum porosity appeared at 900 °C. This study revealed the relationships between gas composition/char properties and pyrolysis temperature under high heating rate conditions.  相似文献

We developed transgenic rice plants (Oryza sativa L. cv. Daeribbyeo) overproducing cytosolic glutathione reductase (GR) using a GR gene from Brassica campestris and studied their response to photo-oxidative stress in the presence of methyl viologen (MV, 10 and 50 M concentrations) under room (25 °C) and moderately elevated (35 °C) temperature by analysis of chlorophyll (Chl) a fluorescence parameters (FV/FM, qN, and qP) and of Chl content. Elevated temperature enhanced and accelerated the photo-oxidative damage to photosynthetic apparatus expressed mainly by a fast decrease of qN. Higher temperature supported the protective reaction in transformed rice plants for lower MV concentration (10 M) and eliminated the enhanced tolerance of photosystem 2 photochemistry to photooxidative stress for higher (50 M) MV concentration. Different mechanisms and temperature dependence of oxidative and protective reactions explain the results.  相似文献

Spectrophotometric titrations were conducted on the system horse heart ferricytochromec plus ferrohexacyanide in the pH range 5 to 7 and at temperatures 8, 18, 22 and 28°C. A difference extinction coefficient for reducedvs. oxidized cytochromec at 550 nm of 21 mmol–1cm–1 was used in part of the evaluations. On the assumption that only one electron-transferlinked proton dissociation is effective for both ferro- and ferricytochromec in this pH range, various possible models are developed with only three conforming with the experimental pH dependence of the spectrophotometric equilibrium constant. The data conform best to a model with protonic dissociation constants between pH 5 and 7 such that the reduced cytochromec species is at least a factor of 3 more acidic than the one for oxidized cytochromec (with pKH 6). This interpretation holds least for the data at 22°C, which points to a structural rearrangement at about this temperature (Czerlinski and Bracokova, 1973; Zabinski and Czerlinski, 1974; Zabinski, et al., 1974). While the extinction coefficient of ferrocytochromec shows no significant change with pH and temperature, the one for ferricytochromec does: it is about 5% larger at pH 5 than at pH 7 (550 nm). Graphs for the absorption change of ferricytochromec (pH 7 as reference) document the details over the wavelength range 500 to 750 nm.  相似文献

Summary A polygalacturonase from culture filtrates of a strain ofRhizopus stolonifer was purified about 80 fold by ethanol precipitation, followed by ion exchange chromatography (CM-Sepharose 6B) and gel filtration (Sephadex G-100). The purified preparation was homogeneous when examined by PAGE. The enzyme is an endopolygalacturonase with an optimum catalytic activity at pH 5.0 and 45°C, and a molecular weight of 57,000±500 daltons. The activity was stimulated by Fe+++, Mg++, Co++, and inhibited by Mn++ and Zn++. The enzyme was stable in the pH range of 3.0 to 5.0. The purified enzyme was specific for nonmethoxylate polygalacturonic acid, with Km and Vmax values respectively of 0.19 mg/ml and 1.3 mol/g/min. In addition, this enzymatic preparation degraded pectic substances in organge peel.  相似文献

Summary Addition of calcium carbonate enhanced ethanol production byZymomonas mobilis ZM4 and a mutant (ZMI2), especially at higher concentrations (200–400 g/L) of glucose and sucrose, as well as at higher temperature (42°C) by the mutant. Calcium and sodium carbonates neutralized the acid produced in the medium and enhanced the ethanol production. The Na salts were less effective in the parent strain and were not favourable for the mutant. Ca2+ ions played a direct role in augmenting ethanol production as evidenced by the effect of calcium chloride at controlled pH (5.5).  相似文献
