Effects of Drought on Partitioning of Nitrogen in Two Wheat Varieties Differing in Drought-tolerance

A model was constructed to describe the translocation and partitioningof nitrogen on the seventh day after anthesis for well-wateredand droughted plants of two wheat varieties (Triticum aestivumL. cv. Warigal and Condor). The glasshouse-grown plants weredetillered so that a simplified model could be derived for themain stem. A 9-d drought treatment was imposed just after anthesisand this coincided with the period of endosperm cell divisionin the grains. Warigal, which had a higher grain yield thanCondor under drought, absorbed up to 15-times more nitrogenand translocated 1.5-fold more nitrogen to the shoot via thexylem. In both varieties, nitrogen redistributed from vegetativeorgans accounted for more than 60 per cent in control and 70per cent in droughted plants of the nitrogen needed for eargrowth. The net loss of nitrogen increased by 4-3 per cent inthe leaves, but decreased by 60 per cent in the stem under drought.Stem and roots appeared to play an important role in the nitrogeneconomy of droughted plants: less nitrogen was translocateddirectly to the grains from the senescing leaves and 40–60per cent more nitrogen was translocated to the roots. Nearlyall the nitrogen reaching the roots in the phloem was reloadedinto the xylem stream and translocated back to the shoot. Thetransfer of nitrogen through the stem was reduced under droughtand this resulted in a constant C:N ratio of the grains whichmay be important in the regulation of endosperm cell division.

Effect of Drought on Metabolism and Partitioning of Carbon in Two Wheat Varieties Differing in Drought-tolerance

A model was constructed to describe the partitioning of carbonon the third and seventh day from anthesis for well-wateredand droughted plants of two wheat varieties (Triticum aestivumL. cv. Warigal and Condor). The glasshouse-grown plants weredetillered so that a simplified model could be derived for themain stem. The 9-d drought treatment, imposed just after anthesisduring the period of cell division in the grains, reduced grainyield by 18 per cent in Warigal and 30 per cent in Condor. Netcarbon fixation was up to 60 per cent higher in Warigal thanCondor towards the end of the drought period and this correlatedwith better osmotic adjustment in the flag leaf. Carbon partitioningbetween plant organs responded to water deficit more rapidlythan net carbon fixation. On day 3, carbon allocation to theroots of droughted plants was maintained in Condor and increasedby 14 per cent in Warigal, whereas carbon allocation to theear decreased in both varieties. However the roots did not competewell with the ear when the water deficit became more severe.Warigal accumulated 3 times more stem reserves than Condor underdrought. In the roots, the pattern of carbon allocation betweenrespiration and carbon accumulation changed soon after impositionof drought. Although total root respiration decreased underdrought it became more energy efficient, particularly for Warigal,as less respiration took place via the alternative pathway.On day 3, the larger carbon allocation to the roots and thelower root respiration accounted for the 4-times larger sugaraccumulation in droughted roots of Warigal compared with thoseof Condor. Osmotic adjustment in mature leaves and roots maybe of importance for the maintenance of vital processes andfor recovery after drought.

Molecular Characterization of the pina Gene in Einkorn Wheat

Fifty-six sequences encoding the pina protein were characterized from three species or subspecies of einkorn wheat. These sequences contained 1,595 nucleotides, including 1,270 conserved sites, 21 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs), and 16 indels. The average frequency of SNPs and indels was one out of 76.1 and 99.9 bases, respectively. Five SNPs and no indels were found in the translated sequences. Fourteen haplotypes were defined, and the accessions in each haplotype ranged from 1 to 18. There were nine haplotypes in Triticum monococcum ssp. aegilopoides, eight in T. monococcum ssp. monococcum, and two in T. urartu. Phylogenetic analysis showed that pina genes from different species or subspecies could be clearly differentiated based on the open reading frame. Genes from T. urartu grouped together, whereas genes from T. monococcum ssp. aegilopoides and T. monococcum ssp. monococcum were shared by three and two clusters, respectively. Both the haplotype and phylogenetic analyses indicated that T. monococcum ssp. aegilopoides was more diverse. These results would contribute to the understanding of functional aspects and efficient utilization of pina genes.     

Differential Responses of Two Wheat Varieties Differing in Salt Tolerance to the Combined Stress of Mn and Salinity

The effect of Mn and NaCl on growth, mineral nutrients and antioxidative enzymes in two tetroploid wheat genotypes differing in salt tolerance was investigated in this study. 100 mM NaCl and Mn stress significantly inhibited plant growth, photosynthesis and Ca uptake, while stimulated ROS accumulation, MDA and proline content in wheat plants, Mn stress also increased SOD, APX, GR and DHAR activities. Durum wheat (AS780) was less affected by 100 mM NaCl and Mn stress than emmer wheat (AS847) due to more proline production, higher antioxidative enzymes activities and less-affected mineral nutrients. Application of 10 mM NaCl to Mn-stressed durum wheat alleviated Mn-induced damage by reducing Mn accumulation and translocation, while promoting proline accumulation and SOD, APX and GR activities. Irrespective of NaCl level, the combined stress of Mn and NaCl caused more severe oxidative stress, result in further reduction of photosynthetic rate and plant growth in emmer wheat as compared to Mn stress alone. The additively negative effects of NaCl and Mn stress on growth of emmer wheat results from reduced SOD and APX activities as well as Ca, Cu and Fe accumulation in both shoots and roots. These results suggest that salt-tolerant durum wheat is superior to emmer in adapting to Mn stress and the combined stress of salinity and Mn.

A SNP-Based Molecular Barcode for Characterization of Common Wheat

Wheat is grown as a staple crop worldwide. It is important to develop an effective genotyping tool for this cereal grain both to identify germplasm diversity and to protect the rights of breeders. Single-nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) genotyping provides a means for developing a practical, rapid, inexpensive and high-throughput assay. Here, we investigated SNPs as robust markers of genetic variation for typing wheat cultivars. We identified SNPs from an array of 9000 across a collection of 429 well-known wheat cultivars grown in China, of which 43 SNP markers with high minor allele frequency and variations discriminated the selected wheat varieties and their wild ancestors. This SNP-based barcode will allow for the rapid and precise identification of wheat germplasm resources and newly released varieties and will further assist in the wheat breeding program.     

Characterization of Spring Wheat Genotypes Differing in Drought-Induced Abscisic Acid Accumulation: II. LEAF WATER RELATIONS

Aspects of the water relations of spring wheat (Triticum aestivumL.) are described for cultivars Highbury (low ABA) and TW269/9(high ABA), and low and high ABA accumulating F⁶selections derivedfrom a cross between them. In a pot experiment, pressure-volume (P-V) curves were constructedfor main stem leaf four (MSL4) of well-watered plants of Highburyand TW269/9. Estimates of solute potential (²) from these curveswere similar for the two cultivars, but varied with the timeof sampling and the time allowed for hydration in dim light. In a field experiment with four low and four high ABA F⁶lines,P-V curves for flag leaves from both droughted and irrigatedplants gave at both zero turgor (^p) and zero water potential(¹) which differed with degree of stress, sampling time andgenotype. ¹was strongly dependent on the initial_L of the leafand was reduced on average by c. 0.4 MPa per MPa decline ininitial L.5, was lower (more negative) by c. 0.1-MPa in theafternoon than in the morning. Overall, was also 0.1 MPa lowerin low ABA lines than in high ABA lines. In another field experiment, flag leaves of five low and fivehigh ABA F⁶lines were sampled over a 4 week period from droughtedplots and _L and 5, measured (the latter by osmometry with expressedsap). For these leaves 5, at zero p or zero _L was consistentlylower by 0.3–0.5 MPa than estimates of 5, from the P-Vcurves with flag leaves. However, data for the low ABA lineswere again lower (by c. 0.1 MPa) than those for high ABA lines. The consequences of these differences in 1 are discussed inrelation to the stimulation of ABA accumulation in low and highABA selections.

Growth of Near-isogenic Wheat Lines Differing in Development--Spaced Plants

The relationship between phenological development in wheat (TriticumaestivumL.) and growth was studied to determine if the switchfrom a vegetative to a reproductive apex increases plant growthrate. Plant partitioning and relative growth rates during vegetativeand pre-flowering reproductive periods were determined in twosets of near-isogenic lines differing in phenological development.Spaced plants were grown in two photoperiods (15 and 10 h) toincrease the range of development rates. Lines within each isogenicset and photoperiod treatment did not differ in whole plantgrowth rate despite large differences in developmental rate.In addition, the partitioning of biomass between roots and shootswas also similar. The transition of the apex from vegetativeto reproductive mostly affected the partitioning of shoot biomassinto leaf (blades) and stems (rest of the shoot). A longer timeto reach floral initiation was associated with the productionof more, and larger, leaves as well as more tillers. This resultedin large differences in leaf area between isolines. However,at the whole plant level, all lines accumulated biomass at thesame rate with time. The early flowering lines compensated fortheir reduced leaf area by having a higher net assimilationrate and were thereby able to maintain the same relative growthrate as their later flowering counterparts.Copyright 1998 Annalsof Botany Company Development, growth, partitioning,Triticum aestivumL., wheat, isolines.

Photosynthesis in Two Wheat Cultivars Differing in Salt Susceptibility

Salinised (150 mM NaCl for 15 d) roots excised from salt sensitive wheat cultivar Giza 163 showed about 15-fold increase in the ratio of Na/K while salt tolerant Sakha 92 exhibited only 7.5-fold increase compared to their control ratios. Root ratio of saturated/unsaturated fatty acids was stimulated twice in the sensitive cultivar versus 1.7-fold increase in the tolerant ones. Salinity enhanced greatly the accumulation of spermine (Spm) and spermidine (Spd) contents associated with a decrease in putrescine (Put) content in both wheat cultivars. Higher ratios of Spm+Spd/Put associated with lower content of proline and low ethylene evolution were detected in shoots and roots of salt tolerant cultivar. Chlorophyll a/b ratio showed an increase from 1.3 in control of both cultivars to 1.6 and 1.4 in stressed Giza 163 and Sakha 92, respectively. A reduced Hill reaction activity (19 %) was observed in stressed chloroplasts isolated from leaves of the tolerant cultivar versus 40 % inhibition in the sensitive ones. Moreover, chloroplasts isolated from stressed leaves of the sensitive cultivar showed about 25 % reduction in fluorescence emission at 685 nm as well as shifts in the peaks in the visible region.     

Physiological Characteristics and Alternative Respiratory Pathway under Salt Stress in Two Wheat Cultivars Differing in Salt Tolerance

Changes in respiratory pathway, dry weight, contents of proline, ATP, Na⁺and K⁺were investigated under five salinity treatments in the leaves of plants of spring wheat (Triticum aestivumL.). Two cultivars differing in salt resistance, namely, 89122 (salt-tolerant) and Longchun13 (salt-sensitive), were used. The decrease in dry weight and K⁺content was observed with the increasing NaCl concentrations, but more in cv. 89122 plants than in Longchun13 plants. Contents of proline and Na⁺in both cvs increased greatly, but the former increased more in 89122 while the latter more in Longchun13 plants. In all salinity treatments tested, a salt-induced increase in the activity of the alternative pathway was found, although cytochrome pathway (CP) still remained the main electron transport pathway. ATP production changed in parallel with CP operation. Cv. 89122 plants could produce more ATP than cv. Longchun13 plants exposed to each salinity treatment and their ATP generation could even be stimulated in contrast to its rapidly decline in Longchun13 plants with increased salinity stress. The possible relationship between respiration metabolism and above mentioned physiological changes is discussed.     

Composition of High Molecular Weight Glutenin Subunits in Common Wheat Varieties and Promising Lines

The composition of high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMWGS) is studied by means of the SDS-PAGE electrophoresis method in varieties of winter (obtained with the involvement of the Agropyron glaucum (Desf.)) and spring common wheat created in the West Siberian region. Data on HMWGS in the promising lines obtained with the involvement of the Triticum timopheevii Zhuk. and T. dicoccum var. farrum (having a complex resistance to pathogens) are presented. The prospects of the creation of spring common wheat varieties with the involvement of the presented lines and the use of some of them as a model for the study of heterosis mechanisms are discussed.     

Biochemical Characterization of Aeromonad Strains Differing in Pathogenicity

A virulent strain of motile aeromonad (77-18) differed from an avirulent strain (78-16) in the contents of lipids and phospholipids and odd-numbered fatty acids, activity of hydrolytic enzymes, and amount of proteins with molecular weights of 47–56 kDa. It is assumed that proteins with molecular weights of 47–56 kDa, proteolytic enzymes active within a wide pH range, and odd fatty acids may act as pathogenicity factors. Each of these compounds or their combination determines a certain stage of infection.
