The influence of elevated CO2 on non-structural carbohydrate distribution and fructan accumulation in wheat canopies 总被引:3,自引:1,他引:2
We grew 2.4 m2 wheat canopies in a large growth chamber under high photosynthetic photon flux (1000 μmol m−2 s−1) and using two CO2 concentrations, 360 and 1200 μmol mol−1. Photosynthetically active radiation (400–700 nm) was attenuated slightly faster through canopies grown in 360μmol mol−1 than through canopies grown in 1200μmol mol−1, even though high-CO2 canopies attained larger leaf area indices. Tissue fractions were sampled from each 5-cm layer of the canopies. Leaf tissue sampled from the tops of canopies grown in 1200μmol mol−1 accumulated significantly more total non-structural carbohydrate, starch, fructan, sucrose, and glucose (p≤ 0.05) than for canopies grown in 360μmol mol−1. Non-structural carbohydrate did not significantly increase in the lower canopy layers of the elevated CO2 treatment. Elevated CO2 induced fructan synthesis in all leaf tissue fractions, but fructan formation was greatest in the uppermost leaf area. A moderate temperature reduction of 10 °C over 5d increased starch, fructan and glucose levels in canopies grown in 1200μmol mol−1, but concentrations of sucrose and fructose decreased slightly or remained unchanged. Those results may correspond with the use of fructosyl-residues and release of glucose when sucrose is consumed in fructan synthesis. 相似文献

Abstract: The ontogeny of Aphelaspis brachyphasis is illustrated and described on the basis of newly discovered silicified material from the McGill section, Nevada, USA. Protaspides of three other Aphelaspis species are redescribed. Of ptychopariide species for which protaspides have been documented, the protaspides of those previously considered to be closely related to Aphelaspis are illustrated herein. Protaspides of Aphelaspis are most similar to those of Olenus , supporting previous taxonomic suggestions that the Aphelaspidinae is closely related to the Olenidae and may be assigned to the Olenacea. The protaspides of Housia share few similarities with those of Aphelaspis , contradicting the hypothesis that these genera are placed together within the Pterocephaliidae. 相似文献

Photosynthate partitioning into leaf starch as affected by daily photosynthetic period duration in six species 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Starch accumulation rates increased up to five-fold in the leaves of five out of six species examined when plants were shifted from a long (12 or 14-h) to a short (7-h) photosynthetic period. The five species that responded were corn (Zea mays L.), pangola (Digitaria decumbens Stent.), soybean (Glycine max L.) Merr.), spinach (Spinacia oleracea L.), and sugarbeet (Beet vulgaris L.) However, the rate of starch accumulation in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) was unaltered following a shift from a long to a short photosynthetic period. We conclude that photosynthate partitioning into chloroplast starch, at least in a wide variety of species, is a programmable process that can be manipulated by altering the length of the daily photosynthetic period. 相似文献

Pascopyrum smithii (C3) andBouteloua gracilis (C4) are importantforage grasses native to the Colorado shortgrass steppe. Thisstudy investigated photosynthetic responses of these grassesto long-term CO2enrichment and temperature in relation to leafnonstructural carbohydrate (TNC) and [N]. Glasshouse-grown seedlingswere transferred to growth chambers and grown for 49 d at twoCO2concentrations (380 and 750 µmol mol-1) at 20 and 35°C, and two additional temperatures (25 and 30 °C) at750 µmol mol-1CO2. Leaf CO2exchange rate (CER) was measuredat a plant's respective growth temperature and at two CO2concentrationsof approx. 380 and 700 µmol mol-1. Long-term CO2enrichmentstimulated CER in both species, although the response was greaterin the C3,P. smithii . Doubling the [CO2] from 380 to 750 µmolmol-1stimulated CER ofP. smithii slightly more in plants grownand measured at 30 °C compared to plants grown at 20, 25or 35 °C. CO2-enriched plants sometimes exhibited lowerCER when compared to ambient-grown controls measured at thesame [CO2], indicating photosynthetic acclimation to CO2growthregime. InP. smithii , such reductions in CER were associatedwith increases in TNC and specific leaf mass, reductions inleaf [N] and, in one instance, a reduction in leaf conductancecompared to controls. InB. gracilis , photosynthetic acclimationwas observed more often, but significant changes in leaf metabolitelevels from growth at different [CO2] were generally less evident.Temperatures considered optimal for growth (C3: 20 °C; C4:35 °C) sometimes led to CO2-induced accumulations of TNCin both species, with starch accumulating in the leaves of bothspecies, and fructans accumulating only inP. smithii. Photosynthesisof both species is likely to be enhanced in future CO2-enrichedand warmer environments, although responses will sometimes beattenuated by acclimation.

Abstract: Specimens of Favosites from upper Llandovery strata of Anticosti Island show three types of calcite structures, herein interpreted as spicules, preserved within their calices and on top of the last tabula. This is stratigraphically younger material, some 50 m higher than fossils described two decades earlier, in which calcified polyps, each with 12 retracted tentacles, were noted. These more recently found structures show striking similarities in form and position to point, collaret and capstan spicules found in the soft tissues of modern pipe corals, i.e. the Octocorallia (Alcyonacea). Where preserved in a distinct pattern on top of the calcite tabulae, the spicular sclerites in Favosites occur in a particular sequence. Twelve individual, or sometimes six pairs of, triradiate point spicules have shrunk to a circlet near the middle of the calice (resting on the last, outermost, tabula). Surrounding the point spicules are 3–6 circlets of curved, usually perforated, lenticular collaret spicules; and surrounding these are scattered, much smaller, capstan spicules. The spicules display variability, probably ontogenetic, in their form and relative sizes; and they are more similar in form to calcareous spicules of alcyonacean corals than to those known from calcareous sponges. Structures with 12-fold radial symmetry in Heliolites, originally described by one of us as 'septal florets', consist of elements that are considered comparable with the point spicules found in Favosites . They have been recognized in ten species of Heliolites from Silurian (Wenlock–Ludlow) strata in the Canadian Arctic islands. 相似文献

Acclimation of Photosynthate Partitioning and Photosynthetic Rates to Changes in Length of the Daily Photosynthetic Period 总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1
Pangola, soya bean and spinach plants were grown in long andshort day photosynthetic periods. Reciprocal shifts betweenlong and short day grown plants were made to study acclimationin the rate of leaf starch synthesis with change in daylength.The rate of leaf starch accumulation is a function of the lengthof the daily photosynthetic period. Acclimation, that is a changein partitioning with a change in length of the photosyntheticperiod, occurs in a variety of species. Acclimation in the rateof starch accumulation occurs rapidly in pangola and is apparentlycomplete the day after a change in length of the daily photosyntheticperiod. Soya bean and spinach leaves require a few days in thenew environment for an acclimation to occur. Digitaria decumbens Stent., Glycine max (L.)

Three articulated valves of the genus Aptychopsis are interpreted as the operculum of a nautiloid. The valves are joined by an organic film which covers the entire dorsal valve. This genus has not been previously reported from North America. 相似文献

A sample containing inarticulate acrotretid brachiopods, from the Silurian Clarita Formation of Oklahoma, was studied to determine the occurrence, nature and frequency of boring in the shells, and the possible identity of the boring organism. Specimens of Artiotreta parva Ireland, 1961 are abundant and specimens of Opsiconidion n. sp. and Acrotretella siluriana Ireland, 1961 are rare in the samples studied. All of the borings discovered are in A. parva except for one, which is in a specimen of O. n. sp. The boreholes are considered to be of predatory origin, and are similar in morphology to borings made by Recent gastropods. The small countersunk boreholes are equally frequent on pedicle and brachial valves, but preferentially located in particular regions of each valve. Boring frequency is high. The identity of the boring organism has not been determined, but is considered to be a soft bodied predator or an archaeo-gastropod. 相似文献
