Bethlenfalvay, G. J., Brown, M. S., Ames, R. N. and Thomas, R. S. 1988. Effects of drought on host and endophyte development in mycorrhizal soybeans in relation to water use and phosphate uptake. - Physiol. Plant. 72: 565–571.
Soybean [ Glycine max (L.) Merr.] plants were grown in pot cultures and inoculated with the vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungus Glomus mosseae (Nicol. & Gerd.) Gerd. and Trappe or provided with P fertilizer (non-VAM plants). After an initial growth period (21 days), plants were exposed to cycles of severe, moderate or no drought stress over a subsequent 28-day period by rewatering at soil water potentials of -1.0, -0.3 or -0.05 MPa. Dry weights of VAM plants were greater at severe stress and smaller at no stress than those of non-VAM plants. Phosphorus fertilization was applied to produce VAM and non-VAM plants of the same size at moderate stress. Root and leaf P concentrations were higher in non-VAM plants at all stress levels. All plants were stressed to permanent wilting prior to harvest. VAM plants had lower soil moisture content at harvest than non-VAM plants. Colonization of roots by G. mosseae did not vary with stress, but the biomass and length of the extraradical mycelium was greater in severely stressed than in non-stressed plants. Growth enhancement of VAM plants relative to P-fertilized non-VAM plants under severe stress was attributed to increased uptake of water as well as to more efficient P uptake. The ability of VAM plants to deplete soil water to a greater extent than non-VAM plants suggests lower permanent wilting potentials for the former. 相似文献

The objective of the study was to determine whether nutrient fluxes mediated by hyphae of vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungi between the root zones of grass and legume plants differ with the legume's mode of N nutrition. The plants, nodulating or nonnodulating isolines of soybean [ Glycine max (L.) Merr.], were grown in association with a dwarf maize ( Zea mays L.) cultivar in containers which interposed a 6-cm-wide root-free soil bridge between legume and grass container compartments. The bridge was delimited by screens (44 μm) which permitted the passage of hyphae, but not of roots and minimized non VAM interactions between the plants. All plants were colonized by the VAM fungus Glomus mosseae (Nicol. & Gerd.) Gerd. and Trappe. The effects of N input to N-sufficient soybean plants through N2 -fixation or N-fertilization on associated maize-plant growth and nutrition were compared to those of an N-deficient (nonnodulating, unfertilized) soybean control. Maize, when associated with the N-fertilized soybean, increased 19% in biomass, 67% in N content and 77% in leaf N concentration relative to the maize plants of the N-deficient association. When maize was grown with nodulated soybean, maize N content increased by 22%, biomass did not change, but P content declined by 16%. Spore production by the VAM fungus was greatest in the soils of both plants of the N-fertilized treatment. The patterns of N and P distribution, as well as those of the other essential elements, indicated that association with the N-fertilized soybean plants was more advantageous to maize than was association with the N2 -fixing ones. 相似文献

Alkaline extracts of adult opossum red cells were used to determine triphosphates of adenosine, deoxyadenosine and guanosine by anion exchange HPLC. Mean (nm/g Hg) ATP content of erythrocytes was 3713 and that of dATP 1913 (n = 12). Sonicates of red cells deaminated adenosine (ADO) at a rate of 1.55 nm/mg Hg/h and deoxyadenosine (dADO) at 1.82 nm/mg Hg/h. dATP synthesis from provided dADO was one order of magnitude greater in opossum than in human erythrocytes at both low and high dADO and Pi concentrations. 相似文献

A. O. M. Wilkie V. J. Buckle P. C. Harris J. Lamb N. J. Barton S. T. Reeders R. H. Lindenbaum R. D. Nicholls M. Barrow N. C. Bethlenfalvay M. H. Hutz J. L. Tolmie D. J. Weatherall D. R. Higgs 《American journal of human genetics》1990,46(6):1112-1126
We describe eight patients who have alpha thalassemia which cannot be accounted for by the Mendelian inheritance of abnormal alpha globin genes. Apart from the hematologic abnormality, the other universal clinical finding is mild to moderate mental handicap; there is also a broad spectrum of associated dysmorphic features. Initial analysis of the alpha globin gene complex (which maps to chromosome band 16p13.3), demonstrated that the alpha thalassemia results from failure of the patient to inherit an alpha globin allele from one of the parents. Using a combined molecular and cytogenetic approach, we have extended this analysis to show that all of these patients have 16p deletions which are variable in extent but limited to the terminal band 16p13.3; in at least four cases the deletion results from unbalanced chromosome translocation, and hence aneuploidy of a second chromosome is also present. The relatively nonspecific clinical phenotype contrasts with the other currently known microdeletion syndromes; this may reflect ascertainment bias in the recognition of such syndromes. This work represents the first step in the characterization of a new microdeletion syndrome that is probably underdiagnosed at present. 相似文献

1. G-6-P, F-6-P, F-1, 6-P, DHAP and GA-3-P in opossum erythrocytes were found at levels above those reported in human red cells. 2. About 1% of the radioactivity provided as [1-14C] DOG to red cells of both species was recovered as 14CO2 in 1 hr. 3. Unlike [1-14C] DOG, radiochromatography of extracts of cells incubated DOG revealed two diffusible radiolabelled compounds in the supernatant of cell suspensions. 4. The catabolism of DOG was quantitatively and qualitatively similar in opossum and human erythrocytes under the conditions of this study. 相似文献

Arbuscular-mycorrhizal (AM) fungi stabilize the soil and enhance plant growth by alleviating nutrient and drought stress. Their contributions to agriculture are well known, but their role in desert ecosystems has received less attention. The AM status of perennial plants in disturbed and undisturbed plots were investigated in the Sonoran Desert near La Paz, Baja California Sur, Mexico to determine if AM fungi contribute to resource-island stability and plant establishment. All perennial plants (46 species) in the study plots were AM, but root colonization varied widely (<10 to> 70%). Roots of plants that established in greatest numbers in plant-free zones (colonizers) of disturbed areas were highly AM. Plants with trace (<10%) root colonization (cacti of the tribe Pachycereae: Pachycereus pringlei, Machaerocereus gummosus, and Lemaireocereus thurberi; and Agave datilyo) established preferentially in association with nurse trees. The pachycereid cacti grew under Prosopis articulata and A. datilyo under Olneya tesota canopies. Of the nine species of trees and arborescent shrubs in the area, the mature (>20 yr) nurse-legumes P. articulata and O. tesota supported the largest number of under-story plants. Younger plants had only occasional associates. AM propagule densities in plant-free areas were lower than under plant canopies (40 vs. 280 propagules/kg soil). Occurrence of soil mounds (islands) under plants owing to soil deposition was related to the nature of the canopies and to the AM status of the roots. Island soils were enmeshed with AM-fungal hyphae, especially in the upper layer (approximately 10 cm). Seedlings of P. pringlei, growing in a screenhouse for six months in soil collected under P. articulata, had a biomass ten times greater than plants growing in bare-area soil. The results are consistent with the proposition that AM fungi contributed to the plant-soil system of our study area by: (1) helping to stabilize windborne soil that settles under dense plant canopies; (2) enhancing the establishment of colonizer plants in bare soils of disturbed areas; and (3) influencing plant associations through differences in the mycotrophic status of the associates. 相似文献

Three Negro kindreds with hereditary persistence of fetal hemoglobin (HPFH) alone and in combination with various other hemoglobin abnormalities including beta thalassemia are presented. Among 11 offspring of two women heterozygous for both HPFH and the delta chain mutation Hb B2, five inherited the HPFH gene and six inherited the Hb B2 gene. In another kindred, a man inferred to be heterozygous for both HPFH and Hb C had six children; three offsprivg obtained the Hb C gene and three the HPFH gene. Similarly, a woman heterozygous for both Hb S and HPFH transmitted the Hb S gene to one of her two children and the HPFH gene to the other. Thus among 19 offspring, no crossovers between the HPFH locus or the Hb delta-beta locus were observed. These and earlier data are compatible with deletion of the Hb beta and delta loci as the primary event to explain the genetic origin of HPFH. Genetic considerations indicate that the finding of a single person with a hematologically normal phenotype among offspring of heterozygotes for both the African type of HPFH and a Hb beta or Hb delta structural abnormality would invalidate the deletion model. 相似文献

Soybean (Glycine max. L. Merr.) plants were grown in an experiment with a 3 × 3 factorial design using different levels of light (170, 350, and 700 μE·m−2·s−1) and P as factors. Plants were grown in a greenhouse in pot cultures using a soil low in plant-available P under three P regimes: no additional P, P added as KH2PO4, or P uptake enhanced by colonization of the host plant with the vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungus Glomus fasciculatum (Thaxt. sensu Gerd.) Gerd. and Trappe. Development of the VAM fungal endophyte and of plants under all three P regimes was depressed by limiting light. However, the growth response of VAM plants to increasing light relative to non-VAM plants in the absence of additional P increased while the response relative to non-VAM plants with additional P decreased slightly. The highly significant interaction between the factors (P < 0.001) of the experiment was due to differences in the magnitude and direction of simple effects of the factors. The implications of these differences in terms of source-sink relationships of the symbionts and the value of different non-VAM controls in interpreting VAM effects are discussed. 相似文献

Summary Development of a vesicular-arbuscular mycorrhizal (VAM) fungus in association with soybean was determined in a greenhouse
soil mix by chitin assay. Samples were sieved to eliminate hexosamine-containing contaminants. This preparation reduced the
interference caused by extraneous soil substances and permitted quantitative measurement of extraradical VAM fungal mycelium
in the soil mix by colorimetric assay. Recovery of added chitin, used as an internal standard, was greater in the soil mix
than in an inert medium indicating that some hexosamine was stabalized from chemical degradation by other soil components. 相似文献

Soil aggregation is a dynamic process in which plants and the soil microbiota play a major role. This experiment was conducted to determine whether the effects of mycorrhizae on the stability of water-stable soil aggregates (WSA) and on selected groups of soil microorganisms are interrelated. Soil containers consisting of four compartments were utilized. Two compartments on each side of a solid barrier were separated by a 43 m screen that permitted the passage of hyphae, but not of roots. The roots of Sorghum bicolor plants were split over the center barrier, and the roots on one side were inoculated with an arbuscular-mycorrhizal (AM) fungus. This design produced mycorrhizosphere soils (M) by AM roots or hyphosphere (H) soils by AM hyphae in the two compartments on the one side of the barrier, and rhizosphere soils (R) by nonAM roots or root- and hypha-free bulk soil (S) in the two compartments on the other side. At harvest (10 wk), there were significant differences in WSA between soils in the order: M>R>H>S, and WSA stability was significantly correlated with root or hyphal length. Numbers of colony-forming units of the microflora (total bacteria, actinomycetes, anaerobes, P solubilizers, and nonAM fungi) were in general not correlated with root or hyphal length, but in some cases were significantly correlated with WSA. Bacteria isolated from the water-stable soil-aggregate fraction tended to be more numerous than from the unstable fraction. The difference was significant in the M soil for total bacteria and P solubilizing bacteria. NonAM fungi were more numerous in the unstable fraction of the M soil. The data show that the root and fungal components of mycorrhizae enhance WSA stability individually and additively in concert, and suggest that they affect microorganism numbers indirectly by providing a favorable and protective habitat through the creation of habitable pore space in the WSA. 相似文献
