The optimal root system architecture for increased tree anchorage has not yet been determined and in particular, the role of the tap root remains elusive. In Maritime pine (Pinus pinaster Ait.), tap roots may play an important role in anchoring young trees, but in adult trees, their growth is often impeded by the presence of a hard pan layer in the soil and the tap root becomes a minor component of tree anchorage. To understand better the role of the tap root in young trees, we grew cuttings (no tap root present) and seedlings where the tap root had (?) or had not (+) been pruned, in the field for 7 years. The force (F) necessary to deflect the stem sideways was then measured and divided by stem cross-sectional area (CSA), giving a parameter analogous to stress during bending. Root systems were extracted and root architecture and wood mechanical properties (density and longitudinal modulus of elasticity, E L ) determined. In seedlings (?) tap roots, new roots had regenerated where the tap root had been pruned, whereas in cuttings, one or two lateral roots had grown downwards and acted as tap roots. Cuttings had significantly less lateral roots than the other treatments, but those near the soil surface were 14% and 23% thicker than plants (+) and (?) tap roots, respectively. Cuttings were smaller than seedlings, but were not relatively less resistant to stem deflection, probably because the thicker lateral roots compensated for their lower number. Apart from stem volume which was greater in trees (+) tap roots, no significant differences with regard to size or any root system variable were found in plants (?) or (+) tap roots. In all treatments, lateral roots were structurally reinforced through extra growth along the direction of the prevailing wind, which also improved tap root anchorage. Predictors of log F/CSA differed depending on treatment: in trees (?) tap roots, a combination of the predictors stem taper and %volume allocated to deep roots was highly regressed with log F/CSA (R 2 = 0.83), unlike plants (+) tap roots where the combined predictors of lateral root number and root depth were best regressed with log F/CSA (R 2 = 0.80). In cuttings, no clear relationships between log F/CSA and any parameter could be found. Wood density and E L did not differ between roots, but did diminish with increasing distance from the stem in lateral roots. E L was significantly lower in lateral roots from cuttings. Results showed that nursery techniques influence plant development but that the architectural pattern of Maritime pine root systems is stable, developing a sinker root system even when grown from cuttings. Anchorage is affected but the consequences for the long-term are still not known. Numerical modelling may be the only viable method to investigate the function that each root plays in adult tree anchorage. 相似文献

Seven culturable bacterial isolates, obtained from the internal stem tissues of Solanum elaeagnifolium and successfully colonizing the internal stem tissues of tomato cv. Rio Grande, were screened for their in vivo antifungal activity against Fusarium oxysporum f.sp. lycopersici (FOL) and their growth‐promoting potential on tomato plants. SV101 and SV104 isolates, assessed on pathogen‐challenged tomato plants led to a significant decrease (77–83%) in Fusarium wilt severity and vascular browning extent (76%), as compared to the inoculated and untreated control. Isolates enhanced growth parameters on pathogen‐challenged and unchallenged tomato plants. SV104 and SV101 isolates were most effective in suppressing disease and enhancing plant growth. These two isolates were identified as Bacillus sp. str. SV101 ( KU043040 ) and B. tequilensis str. SV104 ( KU976970 ). They displayed antifungal activity against FOL; pathogen growth was inhibited by 64% and an inhibition zone (11.50 and 19.75 mm) against FOL could be formed using whole cell suspensions. SV101 and SV104 extracellular metabolites also inhibited FOL growth by 20 and 55%, respectively, as compared to control. B. tequilensis str. SV104 was shown to produce protease, chitinase, pectinase, IAA and siderophores. Bacillus sp. str. SV101 displayed pectinase activity and was found to be an IAA‐producing and phosphate‐solubilizing agent. To our knowledge, this is the first study reporting on S. elaeagnifolium use as a potential source of potent biocontrol and plant growth‐promoting agents. 相似文献

Five wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) starches, from the varieties Sunco, Sunsoft, SM1118, and SM1028, with similar amylose content, and a waxy wheat were separated into large (A) and small (B) granules. The unfractionated starches, and isolated A and B granules, were characterized structurally and evaluated for their functional properties. The amylopectin chain length distribution revealed that A granules had a lower proportion of short chains with degree of polymerization (DP) 6-12 and a higher proportion of chains with DP 25-36 than B granules. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns showed predominantly A-type crystallinity for all of the starches. No differences in the crystallinity were found between unfractionated, A and B granules. Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) patterns of the starches at 55% hydration showed that the lamellar repeat distance in A granules was larger than that of B granules for all the starches examined. However, the lamellar distances of both A and B granules from the waxy wheat were smaller than those of Sunco, Sunsoft, SM1118 and SM1028 starches. The swelling power of the B granules was greater than that of A granules from all five starches. The kinetics of digestion of A and B granules with α-amylase in vitro were complex, with B granules initially digested to a greater extent than A granules. After 4 h of incubation, A granules showed greater digestibility than B granules, except in the case of waxy starch where unfractionated and fractionated granules had similar in vitro digestibility. Correlations between structural and functional parameters were more significant for the isolated A and B granules than for the unfractionated starches. This study demonstrates that A and B granules differ in structure and functionality, and that some correlations between these properties could be masked in unfractionated starches with bimodal granule size distribution. 相似文献

Small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS) together with several complementary techniques, such as differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction, have been employed to investigate the structural features that give diverse functional properties to wheat starches (Triticum aestivum L.) within a narrow range of enriched amylose content (36–43%). For these starches, which come from a heterogeneous genetic background, SAXS analysis of duplicate samples enabled structural information to be obtained about their lamellar architecture where differences in lamellar spacing among samples were only several tenths of nanometer. The SAXS analysis of these wheat starches with increased amylose content has shown that amylose accumulates in both crystalline and amorphous parts of the lamella. Using waxy starch as a distinctive comparison with the other samples confirmed a general trend of increasing amylose content being linked with the accumulation of defects within crystalline lamellae. We conclude that amylose content directly influences the architecture of semi-crystalline lamellae, whereas thermodynamic and functional properties are brought about by the interplay of amylose content and amylopectin architecture. 相似文献

In this work, two different types of supported biomimetic membranes were designed to study the membrane binding properties of two different proteins that both interact with cellular membranes in a calcium-dependent manner. The first one, neurocalcin, is a member of a subfamilly of EF-hand calcium-binding proteins that exhibit a calcium-myristoyl switch. The second protein is a bacterial toxin, the adenylate cyclase produced by Bordetella pertussis, the causative agent of whooping cough. The biomimetic membranes constructed in this study were either hybrid bilayer membranes or polymer-tethered membranes. Hemimembrane formation was obtained in two steps: a monolayer of 1-octadecanethiol or octadecyltrichlorosilane was self-assembled on top of the gold or glass surface, respectively, and then the egg-phosphatidyl choline (PC) vesicle fused on the hydrophobic alkyl layer. Polymer-tethered membranes on solid support were obtained using N-hydroxysuccinimide (NHS)-terminated-poly(ethyleneglycol) (PEG)-phospholipids as anchoring molecules. Egg-PC/1,2-distearoyl-sn-glycero-3-phospho-ethanolamine-poly(ethyleneglycol)-N-hydroxy-succinimide (DSPE-PEG-NHS) mixture liposomes were injected on the top of an amine grafted surface (cysteamine-coated gold or silanized glass); vesicles were linked to the surface and disrupted, leading to the formation of a bilayer. The biomimetic membrane constructions were followed by surface plasmon spectroscopy, while membrane fluidity and continuity were observed by fluorescence microscopy. Protein/membrane binding properties were determined by resonance surface plasmon measurements. The tethered bilayer, designed here, is very versatile as it can be adapted easily to different types of support. The results demonstrate the potentialities of such polymer-tethered artificial membranes for the study of proteins that insert into biological membranes such as toxins and/or integral membrane proteins. 相似文献

Nine non-pathogenic bacterial isolates, recovered from Datura metel organs and able to colonise the internal stem tissues of tomato cultivar Rio Grande, were screened for their ability to suppress tomato Fusarium wilt disease caused by Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (FOL), and to enhance plant growth. S33 and S85 isolates tested were found to be the most effective in decreasing Fusarium wilt severity by 94–95% compared to FOL-inoculated and untreated control. A significant enhancement of growth parameters was recorded on tomato plants inoculated or not with FOL. Both isolates were characterised and identified using 16S rDNA sequencing genes as Stenotrophomonas sp. str. S33 (KR818084) and Pseudomonas sp. str. S85 (KR818087). Screened in vitro for their antifungal activity towards FOL, these isolates led to 38.7% and 22.5% decrease in pathogen radial growth and to the formation of an inhibition zone of 12.75 and 8.37?mm respectively. Stenotrophomonas sp. str. S33 and Pseudomonas sp. str. S85 were found to be chitinase-, protease- and pectinase-producing strains but unable to produce hydrogen cyanide. Production of indole-3-acetic acid-like compounds, phosphate solubilising ability and pectinase activity were investigated for elucidating their plant growth-promoting traits and their endophytic colonisation ability. 相似文献

This study aims at assessing the influence of slope angle and multi-directional flexing and their interaction on the root architecture of Robinia pseudoacacia seedlings, with a particular focus on architectural model and trait plasticity. 36 trees were grown from seed in containers inclined at 0° (control) or 45° (slope) in a glasshouse. The shoots of half the plants were gently flexed for 5 minutes a day. After 6 months, root systems were excavated and digitized in 3D, and biomass measured. Over 100 root architectural traits were determined. Both slope and flexing increased significantly plant size. Non-flexed trees on 45° slopes developed shallow roots which were largely aligned perpendicular to the slope. Compared to the controls, flexed trees on 0° slopes possessed a shorter and thicker taproot held in place by regularly distributed long and thin lateral roots. Flexed trees on the 45° slope also developed a thick vertically aligned taproot, with more volume allocated to upslope surface lateral roots, due to the greater soil volume uphill. We show that there is an inherent root system architectural model, but that a certain number of traits are highly plastic. This plasticity will permit root architectural design to be modified depending on external mechanical signals perceived by young trees. 相似文献

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a neurodegenerative disorder characterized by the extracellular deposition of amyloid-β peptides (Aβ). During the past few years, promising approaches based on nanotechnologies have emerged to alter Aβ aggregation and its related toxicity. This study aims to investigate the influence of the nanoparticle colloidal properties over the interaction with Aβ peptide 1–42 (Aβ1–42). Using capillary electrophoresis with laser-induced fluorescence detection, it was shown that biodegradable poly(ethylene glycol)-block-polylactide (PEG-b-PLA) nanoparticles were able to interact with Aβ1–42 peptide leading to its uptake in rather short time periods. In addition, we highlighted the crucial role of the nanocarrier colloidal properties on the uptake kinetics. Whereas nanoparticles stabilized by sodium cholate (lower size and higher negative surface charge) gave optimum uptake kinetics, nanoparticles stabilized with others surfactants presented lower interactions. In contrast, PEG density seemed to have no influence on the interaction when sodium cholate was used for the preparation. This study intends to give new insights into Aβ1–42 peptide interaction with nanoparticulate systems by helping to determine suitable nanoparticle characteristics regarding forthcoming therapeutic strategies against AD. 相似文献

A putative endophytic Bacillus cereus str. S42 (KP993206), recovered from surface-sterilised stems of Nicotiana glauca was assessed in vitro and in vivo for its antifungal potential towards Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. lycopersici (FOL). Pathogen sporulation was significantly inhibited by B. cereus str. S42. FOL mycelial growth was reduced using its whole-cell suspensions, cell-free culture supernatant and chloroform extract. Its extracellular metabolites remained effective after heating at 50–100 °C with a decline in their activity was observed beyond 100 °C, when added with proteinase K and/or after pH adjustment to 2 and 12. Chitinase gene was detected using PCR amplification. Gas chromatography–mass spectrometry analysis of its chloroform extract matched phthalic acid, dibutyl ester with high level of similarity. B. cereus str. S42 cell-free culture supernatant and whole-cell suspensions had significantly suppressed Fusarium wilt severity by 87–96% and enhanced tomato growth by 39–79% compared to FOL-inoculated and untreated control. 相似文献
