Ten-day old kidney bean plants (Phaseolus vulgaris L. cv. Shin-edogawa)were exposed to 2.0 and 40 parts 106 NO2, and0.1, 0.2, and 0.4 parts 106 O3 alone or in combinationfor 2, 4, and 7 d. The effects of these air pollutants wereexamined with respect to the growth, partitioning of assimilates,nitrogen uptake, soluble sugar content, and root respiration. Decreased dry matter production was significant with all treatmentsexcept 2.0 parts 106 NO2 and 0.1 parts 106 O3.Exposure to mixtures of the gases produced more severe suppressionof growth than exposure to the single gases. Root/shoot ratiowas significantly lowered at 7 d by the gas treatments otherthan 2.0 parts 106 NO2 and 0.1 parts 106 O3. Thetotal nitrogen content of plants was increased by all treatments;the higher percent of nitrogen found with O3 exposure will resultfrom the growth retardation which increases the concentrationof nitrogen in the plants because the absorption of nitrogenby roots was unaffected. The combination of O3 with NO2 significantlydecreased the assimilation of NO2 by the plants. The concentration of soluble sugars in roots was decreased bythe gas treatments. There was a strong positive correlationbetween soluble sugar content and dry weight of the roots harvestedat 7 d. Root respiration was relatively unchanged until 5 dand then decreased significantly at 7 d by 2.0 parts 106NO2 and 02 parts 106 O3. Retarded growth of theroots and the decreased root respiration may be due to diminishedtranslocation of sugars from leaves to roots caused by exposureto air pollutants. The uptake of soil nitrogen was not closelyrelated with root respiration in the case of O3 exposure. Key words: NO2, O3, Phaseolus vulgaris, Growth, Sugars, Root respiration 相似文献

Luminescent fungi spontaneously emit light during certain stagesof their life cycles. Most of them are luminous during a partof their mycelial stage, but not many of them are luminous whenthey form fruiting bodies. In the case of Panellus stipticus,both the mycelium and the fruiting body can be luminous, andthe emission of light takes place when its luciferin is aerobicallyoxidized in the presence of the superoxide anion (O2) and acationic surfactant. It is highly likely that the luminescencereactions of all kinds of luminous fungi are basically the sameas that of P. stipticus. In order to determine the factor thatmakes a fungus luminous or non-luminous, we studied the relationsbetween the light emission of fungi at various growth stagesand the contents of luciferin, its precursor, superoxide dismutase(SOD), and catalase, on six species of luminescent fungi: Armillariellamellea, Mycena citricolor, Mycena lux-coeli, Omphlotus olearious,Panellus stipticus, and Pleurotus japonicus. The analysis ofthe data suggested that the fungi generally contain the componentsnecessary for light emission, but also contain very large amountsof SOD which destroy O2. If an appreciable amount ofSOD is distributed at the site of light emission, the luminescencereaction is prevented. For the reaction to take place, it isessential that the SOD activity at the site is sufficientlylow or inhibited, despite the high content of SOD in the wholetissue. Thus, the level of SOD activity at the site of lightemission appears to be a limiting factor in regulating the luminescenceof fungi.

1. Animals exploiting different resources may nevertheless interact if one species indirectly alters the abundance and distribution of the food of the other. To analyse this indirect effect, we conducted experiments in artificial pools and in the field to investigate the influence of the algivorous fish Plecoglossus altivelis altivelis (known as the ayu) on two species of insectivorous benthic fish, Pseudogobio esocinus esocinus and the goby Gymnogobius petschiliensis .
2. In the pool experiments, algal biomass was not correlated with the number of ayu, but the percentage of blue-green bacteria rose as the number increased. The number of aquatic macroinvertebrates on the upper surface of ceramic tiles placed in the pool bed decreased as the number of ayu increased.
3. Although ayu and the benthic species did not interact directly, the reduction in invertebrate abundance on the upper surface of tiles in the pool reduced the growth rate of the benthic insectivores.
4. In field experiments, the introduction of ayu into habitats with P. esocinus esocinus or G. petschiliensis reduced the growth rate of these benthic fish. In the field experiment that was carried out over 5 years in the G. petschiliensis habitat, the population density of the goby decreased when ayu were stocked.
5. The ayu is a strong interactor or bioengineer in streams, affecting not only benthic algae but also aquatic invertebrates and fishes. We conclude that to predict the outcome of interspecific interactions amongst fishes in streams with high algal production, possible indirect effects must be considered alongside better known direct effects. 相似文献

The relationship between leaf anatomy, ultrastructure and carbondiscrimination was investigated in leaves of two F1hybrids (F1-1and F1-2) between two different types of the grassPanicum [anNAD-malic enzyme (ME) C4species], which differ in bundle sheathultrastructure. The female parent was Kabulabula grass, whichhas centrifugal chloroplasts in bundle sheath cells and is designatedan NAD-ME(F) species, while the male parent was Makarikari grass,which has centripetal chloroplasts in the bundle sheath cellsand is designated an NAD-ME(P) species. Suberin lamellae arepresent in Kabulabula grass but are lacking in Makarikari grass.Both F1hybrids had the same chromosome number (2n =36) as theparents but exhibited both univalent (about 45%) and bivalent(about 55%) chromosome pairing which was the major basis forthe identification of F1hybrids. In F1-1, elongated bundle sheathcell chloroplasts are arranged mainly in a centripetal position,similar to those in the male parent, Makarikari grass. In contrast,most of the bundle sheath cells in F1-2 are packed with starch-containingchloroplasts, although in some cells chloroplasts tended tobe centripetally arranged. In both F1hybrids, suberin lamellaewere found in the bundle sheath cell walls, similar to the femaleparent, Kabulabula grass. The 13C values of both F1hybrids were-11.4 to -11.7, almost the same as those of Kabulabula grass(-11.4), but significantly higher than those of Makarikari grass(-12.7). These results indicate that the chloroplast orientationin the bundle sheath cells and the presence of suberin lamellaeare not obligatorily linked in their expression and suggestthat suberin lamellae may play an important role in discriminationagainst13C.

There are sevenlagoons onthe east coast of Korea,including Kyeongpo Lake,Hyang Lake,Mae Lake,Chung-cho Lake,Yeoungrang Lake,Songji Lake and HwajinpoLake.They are all originally natural and brackish waterlakes.Therefore,these lakes are not only historically veryimportant but also have high values for geological,andecological sciences.Natural lakes like lagoons are different from man-made lakes.That is,water level in natural lakes is almostconstant,cline by waterside is not much,and wet la… 相似文献

Previous studies on early female mouse embryos revealed the presence of two kinds of inactive X chromosomes, one replicating late and the other early in the DNA synthetic period. The X chromosome that replicates early is of special interest because of its paternal origin, preferential occurrence in trophectoderm and primitive endoderm derivatives, and programmed shift to the late replicator. This study by BrdU labeling and acridine orange fluorescence staining was undertaken to examine whether the inactive X chromosome behaves in a similar manner in other laboratory mammals. In rat embryos the paternal X chromosome was found to show the same behavior in extraembryonic tissues. Early replicating chromosomes were also found in the extraembryonic regions of Chinese hamster and rabbit embryos, although their parental origin could not be determined due to the absent of X chromosome polymorphism in these species. Probably the early replicating X chromosome occurs commonly in mammals. Its functional significance is unknown. 相似文献
