冷型小麦旗叶衰老和活性氧代谢特性研究

以典型的冷型小麦和暖型小麦为试验材料,研究了同一环境背景下不同温度型小麦开花后的旗叶衰老和活性氧代谢特性。结果表明,与暖型小麦相比,冷型小麦籽料灌浆期旗叶叶绿素和可溶性蛋白质含量下降缓慢、含量高,整个业粒形成和灌浆期ＭＤＡ积累速度慢、含量低,籽粒灌浆期防御活性氧伤害的关键性保护酶（ＳＯＤ、ＣＡＴ和ＰＯＤ）活性下隆幅度小,灌浆中后期活性水平高。由此认为,小麦旗叶衰老和活性氧代谢特性与其温度型的归属关

Effect of salt and osmotic stresses on germination in durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.)

In order to determine the relative importance of ionic toxicity versus the osmotic component of salt stress on germination in durum wheat (Triticum durum Desf.), seeds of three cultivars differing in their salt and drought resistance (Omrabi-5, drought-resistant; Belikh, salt-resistant and Cando, salt-sensitive) were incubated in various iso-osmotic solutions of NaCl, mannitol and polyethylene-glycol (PEG) (osmotic potential of –0.15 (control solution) –0.58, –1.05 or –1.57 MPa). Moderate stress intensities only delayed germination, whereas the highest concentration of NaCl and PEG reduced final germination percentages. PEG was the most detrimental solute, while mannitol had no effect on final germination percentages. All osmotica reduced endosperm starch and soluble sugars content as well as -amylase activities recorded after 48 h of treatment while -amylase activities were, in contrast, slightly stimulated in all cultivars. Deleterious effects of NaCl and PEG were higher on isolated embryos germinated onto an in vitro Linsmaier and Skoog (LS) medium comparatively to whole seeds. All PEG-treated embryos, however, recovered after the stress relief while NaCl-treated embryos exhibited a lower rate of recovery and some extent of abnormal germination after rinsing. It was concluded that stress inhibition of germination could not be attributed to an inhibition of mobilisation of reserves and that the main effect of PEG occurred via an inhibition of water uptake while detrimental effects of NaCl may be linked to long-term effects of accumulated toxic ions. The behaviour of the three cultivars during germination did not fully reflect their mean level of putative stress resistance in field conditions and germination is, therefore, not recommended as a reliable selection criterion for breeding purposes.     

高温胁迫对华北地区冬小麦灌浆及产量的影响

冬小麦灌浆期高温是制约我国北方冬小麦产量的一个重要气候因素,随着全球气候变暖,日趋频繁的极端温度事件可能引起该地区冬小麦产量的大幅波动。为了明确冬小麦灌浆期异常高温对冬小麦产量的影响程度,在河北固城生态与农业气象试验站自然大田条件下,采用自由空气红外辐射增温技术,开展了冬小麦灌浆中后期短期高温处理模拟试验。结果表明,灌浆中后期短期高温胁迫致使冬小麦灌浆速率下降及灌浆持续时间缩短从而使粒重降低,在消除了影响粒重的其它因素的作用后,短期高温处理期间的午间平均冠层气温与粒重之间存在显著的负线性相关关系。高温对冬小麦产量的威胁程度由高温强度及其持续时间两个因素决定。结合了高温强度及其持续时间综合作用的高温有效度时被证明是一个能全面反映灌浆中后期高温胁迫影响的特征量。     

灌浆期高温对冬小麦籽粒氨基酸含量和组成的影响

以强筋小麦品种郑麦366和中筋小麦品种洛旱2号为材料,采用盆栽和人工气候室模拟的方法,研究了花后不同时段(灌浆前期即花后5 d,灌浆中期即花后15 d)和持续时间(处理2 d和4 d)的高温胁迫对籽粒氨基酸含量和积累量(以单粒中氨基酸含量表示)的影响。结果显示:(1)高温胁迫显著增加了小麦籽粒中必需氨基酸(EAA)、非必需氨基酸(NAA)和总氨基酸(TAA)含量,但降低了其积累量和EAA/TAA,2品种表现一致;(2)灌浆前期高温胁迫对2品种籽粒氨基酸含量的影响大于灌浆中期,而对氨基酸积累量的影响则相反;(3)高温持续时间对籽粒氨基酸含量的影响在2品种间存在差异,洛旱2号籽粒赖氨酸、EAA、NAA和TAA含量均随高温持续时间的延长显著增加,而郑麦366籽粒中上述指标仅在高温胁迫4 d下较对照增加显著;(4)从受高温胁迫的影响看,籽粒EAA/TAA对高温时段更敏感,而氨基酸含量表现为更易受高温持续时间的影响;(5)高温时段与持续时间的互作效应体现在:灌浆前期籽粒氨基酸积累量2品种均以高温胁迫4 d的影响最大,而灌浆中期则均以高温2 d的降幅最大。上述结果表明,小麦籽粒氨基酸及其组分对高温胁迫的响应不仅在品种间存在差异,且受高温时段和持续时间的影响。     

Heavy metal accumulation in wheat and barley: The effects of soil presence and liquid manure amendment

An experiment was undertaken to evaluate the effect of liquid manure amendment on heavy metal accumulation in wheat and barley. For this purpose, both kinds of seedlings were grown simultaneously in a Petri dish, while wheat seedlings were also grown in pots containing unpolluted agricultural soil. All of the seedlings were irrigated with one of the three prepared solutions: artificial rainwater solution, heavy metal solution and liquid manure solution containing NH₄NO₃, H₃PO₄ and KOH along with equal amounts of heavy metals as in the second solution. Twenty days later, 1 g of plant tissue was digested with the mixture of HNO₃ and H₂O₂ for ICP-OES/HG-ICP-OES analysis. The results showed that the uptake of arsenic and mercury was highest for both plants grown in a Petri dish. Furthermore, the wheat grown in a Petri dish also had a high content of nickel, cadmium and copper, while the pot-grown wheat contained high amounts of iron and manganese, probably due to the adsorption of nickel, cadmium, copper and mercury on soil phases. The lower uptake of all heavy metals was observed after the amendment of liquid manure, with the exception of manganese in wheat and mercury in all plants.     

玉/豆和玉/薯模式下氮肥运筹对玉米氮素利用和土壤硝态氮残留的影响

过量施用氮肥造成的环境问题日益严重,氮肥合理使用已成为人们研究的热点.本文研究了西南玉米两种主要套作模式下氮肥运筹对玉米氮素利用和土壤硝态氮残留的影响.结果表明：连续分带轮作种植玉/豆模式后,玉米收获期植株中的氮素积累较玉/薯模式平均提高了6.1%,氮收获指数增加了5.4%,最终使氮肥利用效率提高4.3%,氮素同化量提高了15.1%,氮肥偏生产力提高了22.6%;玉米收获后硝态氮淋溶损失减少,60～120 cm土层中硝态氮残留玉/豆模式较玉/薯模式降低了10.3%,而0～60 cm土层中平均提高了12.9%,有利于培肥地力,两年产量平均较玉/薯模式高1249 kg·hm^-2,增产22%;增加施氮量提高了植株氮素积累,降低了氮肥利用率,显著提高了表层土壤中硝态氮的累积,60～100 cm土层中硝态氮的累积量在0～270 kg·hm^-2处理间差异不显著,继续增加施氮量会显著增加土壤硝态氮的淋溶;氮肥后移显著提高了土壤0～60 cm土层硝态氮的积累.两种模式下施氮量和底追比对玉米氮素吸收和硝态氮残留的影响结果不一致,玉/豆模式以施氮180～270 kg·hm^-2、按底肥∶拔节肥∶穗肥=3∶2∶5的施肥方式有利于提高玉米植株后期氮素积累、氮收获指数和氮肥利用效率,减少了氮肥损失,两年最高产量平均可达7757 kg·hm^-2;而玉/薯模式在180 kg·hm^-2、按底肥∶穗肥=5∶5的施肥方式下,氮素积累利用及产量均优于其他处理,两年平均产量为6572 kg·hm^-2,可实现两种模式下玉米高产、高效、安全的氮肥管理体系.
     

Coordinated action of β‐galactosidases in the cell wall of embryonic axes during chickpea germination and seedling growth

The plant cell wall is a dynamic structure whose constant modification is necessary for plant cells to grow and divide. In the cell walls of chickpea (Cicer arietinum) there are at least four β‐galactosidases, whose presence and location in embryonic axes during the first 48 h of seed imbibition are discussed in this paper. We examined their roles as cell wall‐modifying enzymes in germinative and/or post‐germinative events. At the start of germination, only βV‐Gal, and to a lesser extent βIV‐Gal, appear in the axes before rupture of the testa, suggesting they are related to germination sensu stricto. Once the testa has broken, the four β‐galactosidases are involved in growth and differentiation of the axes. Immunolocation of the different proteins in axes, which in part confirms previous results in seedlings and plants, allows assignment of post‐germinative roles to βI‐Gal and βIII‐Gal as cell wall modifiers in vascular tissue elements. βIV‐Gal and βV‐Gal participate in the initial events of germination in which cell walls are involved: βV‐Gal in cell proliferation, detachment of root cap cells and initial vascular tissue differentiation; both of them in xylem maturation; and βIV‐Gal in thickening of the primary cell wall. Together with other cell wall‐modifying enzymes, such as expansins and XTH, chickpea galactosidases might function in a sequential order in turnover of the primary cell wall, allowing the elongation of embryonic axes during seed germination.     

A glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) homologue from southern bluefin tuna is a secreted protein: first report of a secreted GPx4 isoform in vertebrates

The antioxidant enzyme glutathione peroxidase 4 (GPx4) is capable of reducing complex lipid hydroperoxides in addition to hydrogen peroxide and organic hydroperoxides. Mammals express three GPx4 isoforms that are targeted to nucleoli, mitochondria or cytosol via variable amino termini. To better understand the role of this important antioxidant enzyme in marine finfish, we determined the subcellular localisation of a GPx4 homologue from southern bluefin tuna (Thunnus maccoyii; SBT). We created constructs for the expression of the selenocysteine-to-cysteine mutant of SBT GPx4 (GPx4C) tagged with enhanced green fluorescent protein (EGFP), including or lacking a putative amino-terminal signal peptide, and expressed the fusion proteins in a fish cell line. Fluorescence microscopy revealed that the full-length GPx4C-EGFP fusion protein localised to the trans-Golgi, suggesting that tuna GPx4 may be directed to the secretory pathway. Anti-GFP immunoblotting of cell lysates and proteins from culture media showed that the secretion of SBT GPx4 into the culture medium required an amino-terminal signal peptide. According to available sequence data, the SBT GPx4 isoform studied here is representative of other piscine GPx4 isoforms, suggesting that the secretion of at least one GPx4 isoform may be common amongst teleost fish.     

外源H2O2对小麦幼苗耐盐性的调节作用

以高原448小麦品种为材料,分别测定了4个处理(Hoagland营养液、Hoagland营养液 150 mmol/LNaCl、Hoagland营养液 150 mmol/L NaCl 10μmol/L H2O2和Hoagland营养液 10μmol/L H2O2)的小麦幼苗在第2、4、6、8天叶片叶绿素、丙二醛、可溶性糖和还原性谷胱甘肽含量.结果显示:外源H2O2提高了NaCl胁迫下4个时段小麦幼苗的叶绿素含量(8.27%、32.57%、10.19%、4.86%)及还原性谷胱甘肽含量(3.09%、23.97%、5.85%、2.11%),显著提高了可溶性糖含量(14.58%、8.43%、16.68%、5.8%,P<0.05),而显著降低了其丙二醛含量(17.53%、14.04%、4.75%、8.47%,P<0.05).外源H2O2(10μmol/L)使NaCl胁迫下叶绿素含量和还原性谷胱甘肽含量峰值提前,同时推迟了丙二醛峰值出现的时间.研究表明,外源H2O2通过提高叶片叶绿素、可溶性糖和还原性谷胱甘肽含量以有效地增强小麦幼苗的耐盐性.
