热胁迫对不同发育阶段大豆生长素和脱落酸含量的影响(英文)

大豆等植物体内细胞受热或受其它理化因素（如：重金属离子、乙醇、氨基酸类似物）、以及缺氧、DNA损伤、病毒感染等病理因素刺激后,促发应激反应,启动某些基因表达,能产生各种生理活性物质以及各种酶类,共同调控代谢过程和某些激素的活动,如：吲哚乙酸（IAA）、脱落酸（ABA）等。这些内源IAA和ABA共同作用,调节着大豆的抗逆性,从而影响着大豆的农艺性状。本试验对华北生态型的六个大豆栽培种,进行热激处理;取其第三片展开叶,测其内源IAA和ABA含量。这些品种分别是：早熟17,诱处4号,诱变31,耐阴黑豆、科丰6号和科丰34（Tan．1）。初花期,第一天热激（43～45℃,4h）后,它们的IAA和ABA水平均显著高于对照（30～33℃）（Fig．1）。然而,在连续一天热激后（43～45℃,4h／d）,大多数品种的IAA和ABA比第一天减少（Fig．2）。盛花期连续热激处理二天（43～45℃,4h／d）,IAA水平一般低于对照（3～33℃）,半数品种ABA水平也低于对照（Fig．3）。结荚期连续两天热激后（45℃,4h／d）,IAA和ABA含量均显著高于对照（30～33℃）（Fig．4）。     

构树形成层活动中内源IAA的变化及其结合蛋白的研究

构树（Broussonetia papyrifera (L.)Vent.）形成层活动周期中用酶联免疫吸附法测定了形成层区域的内源IAA浓度的变化,并用自行发展的免疫荧光检测方法测定了由此处生活细胞制得的原生质体中IAA结合蛋白的分布。结果表明,形成层旺盛形成未成熟木质部和未成熟韧皮部时期,内源IAA急剧增加,当这些细胞分化成熟时IAA浓度降低,并维持在一定范围内。IAA结合蛋白主要分布于质膜、胞质、核膜及核质中。     

Ameliorative Effect of Chlormequat Chloride and IAA on Drought Stressed Plants of <Emphasis Type="Italic">Cymbopogon Martinii</Emphasis> and <Emphasis Type="Italic">C. winterianus</Emphasis>

Responses of Cymbopogon martinii and C. winterianus to drought stress and chlormequat chloride and IAA application are compared. These two species are important source of essential oil production in drought regions. For both species and their cultivars relative water content (RWC), herbage yield and oil amount decreased under drought, while oil biosynthesis increased. Oil concentration increased significantly under drought in C. winterianus while peroxidase activity increased in C. martinii. Amount of geraniol increased under drought stress in C. martinii while citronellal and geraniol accumulation decreased in C. winterianus. Ameliorative effects of chlormequat chloride and IAA were observed in drought stressed plants of both species. Herbage yield increased significantly in chlormequat chloride and IAA treated stressed plants of C. winterianus, while oil concentration increased in C. martinii. Ameliorative effect of IAA in increasing oil yield was significant in drought stressed plants of both the species. Changes in various morpho-physiological traits indicated that chlormequat chloride and IAA can partially alleviate the detrimental effect of drought in these aromatic grasses.     

Auxin production by bacteria associated with orchid roots

Bacteria associated with the roots of greenhouse tropical orchids were shown to produce indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and to excrete it into the culture liquid. The presence and activity of IAA were demonstrated colorimetrically, by thin-layer chromatography, and by biotests. The associated bacteria varied in their ability to excrete indole compounds (1–28 µg/ml nutrient broth). Addition of tryptophan to the growth medium enhanced phytohormone production. Upon addition of 200 µg/ml tryptophan, the bacteria isolated from Dendrobium moschatum roots (Sphingomonas sp. 18, Microbacterium sp. 23, Mycobacterium sp. 1, Bacillus sp. 3, and Rhizobium sp. 5) produced 50.2, 53.1, 92.9, 37.6, and 60.4 µg IAA/ml, respectively, while the bacteria isolated from Acampe papillosa roots (Sphingomonas sp. 42, Rhodococcus sp. 37, Cellulomonas sp. 23, Pseudomonas sp. 24, and Micrococcus luteus) produced 69.4, 49.6, 53.9, 31.0, and 39.2 µg IAA/ml. Auxin production depended on cultivation conditions and on the growth phase of the bacterial cultures. Treatment of kidney bean cuttings with bacterial culture liquid promoted formation of a root brush with a location height 7.4- to 13.4-fold greater than the one in the control samples. The ability of IAA-producing associated bacteria to act as stimulants of the host plant root development is discussed.Translated from Mikrobiologiya, Vol. 74, No. 1, 2005, pp. 55–62.Original Russian Text Copyright © 2005 by Tsavkelova, Cherdyntseva, Netrusov.     

Participation of Plant Hormones in Growth Resumption of Wheat Shoots Following Short-Term NaCl Treatment

The effects of sodium-chloride salinity on the leaf elongation rate, transpiration rate, cell sap osmolality, and phytohormone content in 7-day-old shoots of durum wheat (Triticum durum L.) were studied. Leaf growth was suppressed under the salinity stress and resumed 1 h after NaCl removal. The resumption of leaf growth coincided with a decrease in the transpiration rate due to the rapid ABA accumulation in the differentiation leaf zone. The increased IAA concentration in the growing leaf zone promoted the formation of the attraction signal. The authors concluded that the changes in phytohormonal status in wheat plants occurred already following short-term (up to 1 h) salinity and were directed to the maintenance of plant growth under these conditions.     

Are xylem radial development and hydraulic conductivity in downwardly-growing grapevine shoots influenced by perturbed auxin metabolism?

Downwardly-growing grapevine shoots have smaller and more frequent vessels than upwardly-growing ones and, as a consequence, a lower hydraulic conductivity. Here, grapevine (Vitis vinifera L.) shoot growth orientation was manipulated to test whether downward shoot orientation negatively affects vessel growth in the apex via a shortage of water and nutrients. The orientation of the central vine shoot portion was inverted by two consecutive 135 degrees bends, resulting in double-bent N-shaped vines; the central downward shoot portion was of different lengths in the experimental treatments to induce increasing reductions of shoot conductivity. These treatments reduced shoot conductivity and water flow, but had no effects on vessel development and frequency in the apex. In a second experiment, auxin concentration was assessed in shoots of upwardly- and downwardly-growing plants. IAA concentration at the apical internodes was higher in downwardly-oriented shoots than in shoots growing upwards. In addition, a higher density and a lower vessel diameter were observed in the lower, than the upper side, of the downwardly-oriented shoot, suggesting increased accumulation of auxin in the lower side. These results suggest that the downward orientation induces accumulation of auxin in the apex, which in turn affects the density and the size of the xylem vessels, causing reduction of hydraulic conductivity.
