Freezing of nonacclimated protoplasts close to lethal temperatures induces alterations in the macromolecular organization of the plasma membrane but the significance of these structural changes in freezing injury is still uncertain. We therefore cooled non-acclimated protoplasts isolated from cultivars of winter rye ( Secale cereale L.) to two sub-zero temperatures using two different cooling rates and analyzed freeze-induced plasma membrane changes by freeze-fracture electron microscopy. When a high cooling rate was used a lipid phase transition was observed in 34% of the total membrane fracture faces of the protoplasts, while with a slow cooling rate it occurred only to a very small extent. Smooth, aparticulate lamellae were approximately three times more frequent at low than at high cooling rate. Lipid phase transition from lamellar to hexagonalII (HII ) phase occurred at high cooling rate more frequently at −10°C than at −30°C in three cultivars. The results suggest that the greatly increased proportion of phase transition from bilayer to non-bilayer phase is an artifact caused by too fast a cooling rate of protoplasts. Furthermore, lateral phase separation of the plasma membrane with segregation of intramembrane particles and the appearance of membrane associated stacks of lipid lamellae, may cause cellular death by retarding the flow of intracellular water towards extracellular ice crystals formed during freezing. 相似文献

‘Galia’ muskmelon (Cucumis melo L. var. reticulatus Ser.) has been recalcitrant to transformation by Agrobacterium tumefaciens. Transformation of the ‘Galia’ male parental line, ‘Krymka’, with an ACC oxidase (CMACO-1) gene in antisense orientation
is described herein. Explants were transformed using A. tumefaciens strain ABI, which contained a vector pCmACO1-AS plasmid, bearing an antisense gene of CMACO-1 and the CP4 syn gene (glyphosate-tolerance). Both CMACO-1 and CP4 syn genes were assessed by a polymerase chain reaction method. Flow cytometry analysis was performed to determine plant ploidy
level of primary transformants. Two completely diploid independent transgenic plants were obtained. Southern blot and segregation
analysis in the T1 generation determined that each independent transgenic line had one single insertion of the transgene. These transgenic muskmelon
male parental lines have potential for use in the production of ‘Galia’ F1 hybrids with improved shelf life. 相似文献

The plant hormone ethylene regulates many aspects of growth, development and responses to the environment. The Arabidopsis ETHYLENE INSENSITIVE3 (EIN3) protein is a nuclear-localized component of the ethylene signal-transduction pathway with DNA-binding activity. Loss-of-function mutations in this protein result in ethylene insensitivity in Arabidopsis. To gain a better understanding of the ethylene signal-transduction pathway in tomato, we have identified three homologs of the Arabidopsis EIN3 gene (LeEILs). Each of these genes complemented the ein3-1 mutation in transgenic Arabidopsis, indicating that all are involved in ethylene signal transduction. Transgenic tomato plants with reduced expression of a single LeEIL gene did not exhibit significant changes in ethylene response; reduced expression of multiple tomato LeEIL genes was necessary to reduce ethylene sensitivity significantly. Reduced LeEIL expression affected all ethylene responses examined, including leaf epinasty, flower abscission, flower senescence and fruit ripening. Our results indicate that the LeEILs are functionally redundant and positive regulators of multiple ethylene responses throughout plant development. 相似文献
