Expression of sucrose synthase genes involved in enhanced elongation of pondweed (Potamogeton distinctus) turions under anoxia.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Overwintering buds (turions) of the monocot aquatic pondweed species (Potamogeton distinctus) are highly tolerant to anoxic stress. Sucrose metabolism accompanied by enhanced activity of sucrose synthase (SuSy) operates actively during anaerobic elongation of pondweed turions. The aim of this study is to isolate SuSy genes from the turions and to investigate their transcript...
متن کاملStimulation of glycolysis in anaerobic elongation of pondweed (Potamogeton distinctus) turions.
Stem segments prepared from pondweed (Potamo geton distinctus A. Benn.) turions (overwintering buds) elongate in anaerobic conditions, whereas there is almost no elongation in air. The anaerobic elongation was accompanied by a decrease in dry weights of stem segments, mainly due to consumption of storage starch in the amyloplasts of stem cells. On the other hand, total contents of amino acids i...
متن کاملDNA barcoding reveals a new record of Potamogeton distinctus (Potamogetonaceae) and its natural hybrids, Potamogeton distinctus × Potamogeton nodosus and Potamogeton distinctus × Potamogeton wrightii (Potamogeton ×malainoides) from Myanmar
Indo-China floristic region is among the 34 richest floristic regions of the world, and its plant diversity is still under investigation. Here we report a new record of an aquatic plant, Potamogetondistinctus, from Myanmar, a part of the region, that is detected by means of DNA barcoding method. The molecular method further identified the other specimens as hybrids of Potamogeton: one is Potamo...
متن کاملEnhanced Expression of Genes Involved in the Biosynthesis Pathway of Tanshinones in Tetraploid Plants of Salvia Officinalis L.
Extended Abstract Introduction and Objective: Polyploidy is one of the main factors in plant adaptation that can increase secondary metabolites production in plants. Salvia officinalis L. is a perennial plant from the Lamiaceae family with a long history of use in the medicinal industry. Tanshinones are crucial active compounds biosynthesized in Salvia. This study was aimed to analyze the expr...
متن کاملInvestigation in expression of key genes involved in sanguinarine biosynthetic pathway in Papaver genus under drought and salinity
The presence of morphine alkaloids, anti-microbial and anti-cancer metabolite, sanguinarine, in different species of Papaver genus has made it one of the most valuable plants in the pharmaceutical industry.With regard to the influence of drought and salinity on the increase of secondary metabolites, the present study attempted to investigate the effect of the mentioned stresses on the key genes...
