The total activity of aldolase (EC 4.1.2.13) and the activities of cytosol and chloroplast aldolase were determined in seeds, cotyledons, primary leaves and secondary leaves of spinach (Spinacia oleracea L., cv. Monopa) during germination. Total aldolase activity in cotyledons increased from low levels to a low maximum in the dark after one week and to a high maximum in white light after three to four weeks and declined thereafter. The activity in primary and secondary leaves started to rise strongly from the 18th and 26th days, respectively, up to the 42nd day of germination. The levels of aldolase activity paralleled the development of leaf area, chlorophyll content and protein content per leaf except that the leaf area of cotyledons continued to increase steadily up to the 42nd day after the maximum of aldolase activity was reached. Resolution of cytosol- and chloroplast-specific isoenzymes by chromatography on diethylaminoethylcellulose indicated that in the light the cytosol enzyme represented approx. 8% of the total activity in cotyledons, primary and secondary leaves throughout germination, and the chloroplast enzyme represented the remaining 92%. Only in cotyledons of dark-grown seedlings was the cytosol aldolase between 25 and 50% of the total activity. Seeds contained almost exclusively a cytosol aldolase. In cotyledons the increase of total activity in the light was specifically the consequence of an increase in chloroplast aldolase while the cytosol aldolase was little affected by light. The light effect was mediated by phytochrome as demonstrated by classical induction and reversion experiments with red and far-red light and by continuous far-red light treatment.Abbreviation DEAE-cellulose

Mobilization of sulphur in soybean cotyledons during germination 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Soybean seeds ( Glycine max L. cv , Stephens) contain a large amount of sulphur (ca 40 μ mol seed−1 ), mostly in the insoluble fraction in the cotyledons. During germination in nutrient solution lacking sulphur the amount of insoluble sulphur decreases to very low levels. This is accompanied by a transitory increase in the pool of soluble sulphur which then declines. All of the sulphur lost from the cotyledons is quantitatively recovered in the seedling. In the short term, the root and the stem are the most important sinks for sulphur from the cotyledons but as growth proceeds the shoot becomes the dominant sink for remobilized sulphur. Within the shoot most of the sulphur is recovered in leaves L1 and L2. The growth of L3 and, to a lesser extent, L2, was retarded due to sulphur insufficiency. The cotyledons of plants treated with 20 μ M sulphate also exhibited mobilization of sulphur from the insoluble fraction except that the maximum rate of loss of sulphur occurred somewhat later. Plants grown with sulphate exhibited a net gain of sulphur and did not exhibit sulphur insufficiency. In these plants, endogenous sulphur from the cotyledons was directed into L1–L3 and this sulphur remained within these leaves for the duration of the experiment. The delivery of exogenous sulphur (supplied as [35 S]sulphate via the roots) to the leaves increased with leaf number. In leaves L1–L3, the level of exogenous sulphur in any one leaf declined with time, indicating that this sulphur was remobilized and did not mix with the sulphur derived from the cotyledons. It was concluded that the cotyledons are an important source of sulphur to support early plant growth and development of soybean. 相似文献

The influence of the cotyledons and apical bud and the root system on the light-induced opening of the hypocotyl hook of etiolated seedlings of Gossypium hirsutum L., Phaseolus vulgaris L., Helianthus annuus L., Ipomoea alla L., Ipomoea sp., Cucumis sativus L., Linum usitatissimum L., Hibiscus esculentus L., and Raphanus sativus L. was studied. Light stimulated the opening of hypocotyl hook in all cases, but the cotyledons and roots had different effects in different plants. Generally, the presence of cotyledons and the remainder of the shoot apical to the hook inhibited light-mediated opening, but in Gossypium the organs stimulated light-mediated opening. Presence of roots either promoted opening, had no effect, or had an effect only when the cotyledons were present. In the dark the adjacent organs had a reduced effect over that shown in the light, but one cultivar of cotton, Acala SJ1, opened the hook in the dark without cotyledons as much as under any condition in the light. The variation between species in hook opening may related to the need of that process for a proper hormonal balance, as affected by light, which must be obtained from adjacent tissues. 相似文献

An analysis of the in vitro activities of proteolytic enzymes from cotyledons of germinating cucumber seeds has been carried out and the effects of protein degradation products on such activities monitored. Aminopeptidase activity is substantially inhibited with either L-leucine or L-phenylalanine and trypsin activity with L-arginine. Aminopeptidase activity was also markedly reduced in the presence of individual di- and tripeptides. Of the peptides tested, however, only L-tryptophyl-L-phenylalanine inhibited the degradation of native cucumber seed protein by the endogenous cucumber seed protease(s) (autodigestive activity).Abbreviations TCA

Influence of the excision of cotyledons on the content of indole-3-acetic acid, growth and flowering of Lupinus albus plants 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
MAHASEN ELKINAWY 《Physiologia plantarum》1980,49(1):88-92
Excision of both cotyledons of Lupinus albus L. (L. termis Forssk.) seedlings at different morphological stages during the first 8 days after sowing, retarded significantly the growth of 16-day-old seedlings and decreased the content of IAA in the shoots. The effect was more obvious at the early excision (4 days after sowing). A pattern similar to that of control plants with intact cotyledons was attained when cotyledons were excised later than 8 days after sowing. It is believed that the cotyledons control the IAA content of the shoot during the early stages of development. At day 36 flower primordia were observed in controls but not in cotyledon-less plants. At this time the IAA content of the shoot apices and the growth of cotyledon-less plants were the same as in controls except for plants that lost cotyledons 4 days after sowing, which showed similar values at week 11, but did not produce flower primordia. The other cotyledon-less plants produced flower primordia 4–11 days after controls. It is postulated that the cotyledons convey certain factor(s) to the developing axis at an early stage of the development which promote flowering. 相似文献

The effects of the fluence rate of continuous light (far-red, fluorescent white, blue and red light) on the increase of epinastic percentage of cotyledons were recorded for six days. The epinastic photoresponse was compared to the cotyledonary enlargement and to the inhibition of the hypocotyl extension of irradiated Sinapis alba L. seedlings. Fluence rate response curves and wavelength response curves showed that the photoepinasty is a typical high irradiance response (as is the inhibition of hypocotyl extension) with two maxima, one in the blue and one in the far-red. The epinastic photoresponse was not directly related to cotyledonary growth, which was greater in red and far-red light than in blue light. 相似文献

Summary Activity measurements and specific antibodies were used to detect and localize in developing and mature cotyledons ofLupinus albus seeds an endopeptidase, active on BAPA, previously isolated from the same seeds. Total activity and enzyme amount were highest at full seed maturation and then declined during germination. Protein bodies were isolated from mature dry cotyledons under anhydrous conditions with a yield of intact organelles of about 80% as assessed by dot blotting with antibodies to lupin legumin-like storage globulin. Activity assays on the isolated protein bodies indicated that 72% of BAPAase activity was associated with these organelles. Quantitative immunocytolocalization with antibodies to the enzyme on thin sections of mature lupin cotyledons confirmed that 75% of the enzyme was located inside the protein bodies. The possible involvement of the BAPAase in the proteolytic processing of the storage proteins during seed ontogeny is discussed.Abbreviations BAPA

Cytyledons of the common bean, Phaseolus vulgaris L., were incubated with radioactive amino acids at different stages of seed development. The proteins were fractionated by ion-exchange chromatography, sucrose gradients, and sodium dodecylsulfate (SDS) polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. From 16 to 28 d after flowering about 40% of the incorporated radioactivity was associated with the polypeptides of vicilin and 10% with those of phytohemagglutinin.Polysomes were isolated from developing cotyledons 20–25 d after flowering and free polysomes were separated from membrane-bound polysomes. Aurintricarboxylic acid, an inhibitor of initiation in cell-free translation systems, did not inhibit the incorporation of amino acids into in-vitro synthesized proteins, indicating that synthesis was limited to the completion of already initiated polypeptides. Autofluorography of SDS-polyacrylamide gels showed that the two classes of polysomes made two different sets of polypeptides and that there was little overlap between these two sets.Four polypeptides similar in size to the 4 polypeptides of vicilin were made by membrane-bound polysomes and not by free polysomes. Antibodies specific for vicilin bound to those 4 polypeptides. Free polysomes made only polypeptides which did not bind to antibodies specific for vicilin. Antibodies against phytohemagglutinin did not bind to any of the invitro synthesized polypeptides.The membranes to which the polysomes were bound were characterized on sucrose gradients and by electron microscopy. Polysomes recovered from membranes which banded on top of 35 and 50% sucrose synthesized the vicilin polypeptides most rapidly. These membrane fractions were rich in vesicles of rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER). The ER marker-enzyme NADH-cytochrome-c reductase banded with an average density of 1.18 g/cm3 (40% w/w sucrose) on continuous gradients. These experiments demonstrate that the ER is the site of vicilin synthesis in developing bean cotyledons. Quantitative determinations of several ER parameters (RNA and lipid-phosphate content, NADH-cytochrome-c-reductase activity) show that expansion of the cotyledons is accompanied by a 4-6-fold increase in ER. 相似文献

Effect of benzyladenine on the development of plastids and microbodies in excised watermelon cotyledons 总被引:3,自引:0,他引:3
Excised watermelon (Citrullus vulgaris Schrad.) cotyledons were grown in the dark in the presence of 0.1 mM benzyladenine (BA). Under these conditions reserve breakdown and organelle differentiation progress very slowly. Treatment with BA accelerates, breakdown of reserves and stimulates development of organelles. Electron micrographs of cells from treated cotyledons show a larger number of plastids with a more developed inner membrane system. The levels of plastid pigments and enzymes are increased while starch content is reduced. Glyoxysomal enzyme levels are increased by BA during the first three days of development and their decline is accelerated thereafter. Also the activity of hydroxypyruvate reductase (EC 1.1.1.81.), a peroxisomal enzyme, is increased, but this increase is not followed by a decay phase. In water controls, hydroxypyruvate reductase bands together with glyoxysomal enzymes after equilibrium centrifugation in a sucrose gradient. In treated cotyledons the equilibrium position of glyoxysomal enzymes is uchanged while that of hydroxypyruvate reductase is shifted to a lower density.Abbreviations BA
