Cryotolerance of apple tree bud is independent of endodormancy
Increasing interest in cryopreservation of dormant buds reveals the need for better understanding of the role of dormancy in cryotolerance. Dormancy stage and low-temperature survival of vegetative apple buds (Malus domestica Borkh.), cultivars 'Sampion' and 'Spartan', collected from orchard were evaluated during three seasons contrasting in temperature and precipitation throughout the arrested...
متن کاملFreezing of water in dormant vegetative apple buds in relation to cryopreservation.
Various empirical prefreezing protocols have been used to facilitate cryopreservation of dormant buds from woody plants. The objective of this research was to determine the quantity of water remaining in liquid phase, under different prefreezing conditions using pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy of dormant apple (Malus domestica Mill.) buds from three cultivars. During prefreezing,...
متن کاملParticipation of the tightly-bound (putative cytoskeleton-bound) polysomes in translation during germination of dormant and non-dormant cereal caryopses.
Research was done on dormant and non-dormant barley cv. Ars caryopses and triticale cv. Grado caryopses treated and non-treated with abscisic acid (ABA). During germination higher participation of populations of so-called tightly-bound polysomes (TBP) in embryos of dormant barley caryopses was observed, as well as their high metabolic activity. In embryos of triticale caryopses of which dormanc...
متن کاملFree and bound water in normal and cataractous human lenses.
PURPOSE To analyze free and total water in human normal and cataractous lenses. METHODS Thermogravimetric analysis was used to determine total water, and differential scanning calorimetry was used for free water. RESULTS In normal human lenses, the total water content of the nucleus remained unchanged with age, but the state of the water altered. The ratio of free to bound water increased s...
متن کاملCryopreservation of winter-dormant apple buds: II - tissue water status after desiccation at -4C and before further cooling.
The established protocol for the cryopreservation of winter-dormant Malus buds requires that stem explants, containing a single, dormant bud are desiccated at -4 degree C, for up to 14 days, to reduce their water content to 25-30 percent of fresh weight. Using three apple cultivars, with known differences in response to cryopreservation, the pattern of evaporative water loss has been characteri...
